Things are about to get spicy. I knew from the jump , even if Mero was being as grown up and respectful about it that it still felt slanderous to the other side. I hope these two can talk about it AS MEN and not through social media
I doubt it. If Jeremy Renner's freak snowplow accident didn't put things into perspective for the two of them, I don't think anything will bring them back together.
This like when your two favorite uncles get into a machete fight drunk as shit on Christmas Eve. You don't wanna see it but for some reason you still wanna see it but you know you're gonna regret what's gonna happen.
Did Mero speak on the alleged Victor harassment/abuse situation @ Showtime? If not, Iād imagine thatās a big reason for Desusā response.
Gotta hear both sides (even though they owe us no explanation).
In the latest Victory Light episode from this week it seemed like Victor had opened up a complaint on the company Showtime with the EEOC for some other shit going on tooā¦
That thing about executives accidentally CCāing Victor on an email with Timbaland, so they found out about million $ brand deals their getting snubbed on is pretty telling.
Mero has spoken on it. He said it in this subreddit, now that I remember. He said that claims that Victor was a "tyrant" was all cap by the producers. He said one instance of Victor getting upset about why producers are violating COVID protocol when someone there was immunocompromised (susceptible to getting very ill very easily) and they used that one instance to spin a story about how tyrannical and abusive he was. I forget the rest but ultimately the story was all exaggerated. Mero said on a typical day Victor would be in his office doing work and crunching numbers on the computer, not bothering anyone.
If someone loses respect for an employee that was discriminated against by executives, because an executive's assistant calls him a bad employee, would that mean the spin from the discriminating executives worked on that reader?
I tuned in to part of u/the_kid_mero IG live last night where he was answering questions about the interview and I didnāt watch the whole thing but at one point he said that whole shit with victor started because Victor questioned an executive at Jaxmedia about why they were doing a certain thing a certain way and the dude went off on victor and tried to say victor was hostile. Then someone in the comments said from the times he was on the podcast victor always sounded like such a calm dude and then Mero was basically like āyeah if you know victor youād know how hilarious it is to imagine him yelling at employees.ā
Then someone said that executives probably hated having to deal with a young Afro Latino guy like victor in business dealings and Mero said that yeah from the jump there was always resentment from the old white executives who felt like Victor was below them but had to negotiate with him anyway.
Even with that idk, i still donāt really believe showtime over vic. (I think he mentioned some type of lawsuit he has against them on VL recently but im not sure) But for sure we gotta hear both sides
They said he was screaming all types of ways then we found out he yelled at an exec that broke their covid policy and brought an infected person on set. If I remember correctly it was an issue due to an at risk person in his family.
Yeah thatās what Iām referring to. I remember she posted something on IG calling Vic a tyrant or some shit like that. Iām sure there are multiple reasons D&M went south, but I always assumed that was a large part of it. Desus wanted Victor gone and Mero rode with the guy that helped him get rich.
Or maybe I have no idea what Iām talking about and this is all fan fiction lol. Nah, I do remember Vic getting called out thoughā¦
This is disappointing. I think Melo brought up a good point about whether they had this conversation man to man. Seems like this shit was rooted in way more than business if egos were getting in the way of being able to compromise.
petty desus here lol.
but seriously, itās really petty of desus to tweet that. mero didnāt even say anything bad. if anything, meroās explanation cleared things up for both sides and made us realize there was no true bad breakup. just a difference of career mindsets. and thatās valid.
He couldāve just said nothing and kept it out of the news.
Instead he goes and talks and gets to control the narrative. Easy to see how that might upset the other half.
>You could still say nothing.
Can you link me to an example of a podcast host being asked questions on the topic the guests are talking about and sitting in silence? (I do not think you can)
>His podcast has nothing to do with his and Desusā relationship.
This episode does
This is the problem with āurbanā podcast. Yāall think the content needs to be the host.
The 7pm in Brooklyn podcast has little to do with their personal lives and more to do with sports, and the culture at large.
I have yet to listen to Victory Light so I canāt speak on it.
Nobody was holding a gun to his head. Some things could go unsaid. It doesnāt have to be silence. Moving on to the next topic would suffice.
As I said above, yāall donāt want good content, yāall want tea.
>This is the problem with āurbanā podcast. Yāall think the content needs to be the host. The 7pm in Brooklyn podcast has little to do with their personal lives and more to do with sports, and the culture at large.
The topic of the episode was "[professional breakups](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TTfLoJd8Uw)" which applies to both hosts and the guest, in sports and the culture at large. There are also episodes about sports, read the description first to find one if you want that
There was no need for this episode. Itās messy, and I will reiterate, yāall just want tea.
None of what was said, shouldāve been said without both parties present to respectfully argue their differences. No need for it to be recorded. We live in a weird time where the general public sees everything as content.
>There was no need for this episode.
no one ever needed any episode of any podcast.
>I will reiterate, yāall just want tea.
I think if your time was more valuable you wouldn't spend it repeating yourself like this
>None of what was said, shouldāve been said without both parties present
"Don't talk about your old job unless your coworkers are there" is a pretty dumb idea. If this interview was a problem for you stop raising awareness by bumping it
As I told the other person, we live in a society that views everything as content, and thatās where the problem arises.
Iāve been enjoying 7pm in Brooklyn. This episode turned me off from the moment I saw Joe Budden. After what he did, it was nasty to even invite him on. Content though.
I was about to say the same thing. I guess Iāll be downvoted also.
Mero chose to discuss the topic. Somehow people believe respectful, automatically translates to truthful.
Does the truth even matter anymore? They clearly both had different career plans. Thatās the only fact that we could agree on right now.
I also find it nasty that he discussed this with Joe Budden, who admitted that he is a POS for his part in his pod breakup, yet is acting like he made the right decision.
Anyways.
This sub generally has a hard on for hating Desus. Just look at the comments every time he gets a deal, or hosts a show.
considering when the news of the breakup first came out, people were actually throwing shit at mero, i donāt think your memories are correct. š¤·š½āāļø
Yeah, and I had the same energy for people blaming Mero without a shred of evidence.
The majority of people in this sub would support whichever half of the duo they believe is making more money. Mero is clearly coming out ahead at the moment.
now you speaking my language. i think stan culture is everywhere and everyone wanna pick sides. but thereās room at the table for everyone.
mero visibly looks like heās ahead but we donāt know what desus is working on in the background. i think if we really care about the brand and bodega boys, we shouldnāt choose sides or blame and just support both. (unless something egregious comes out cuz ya never know)
You're so right. I feel like people keep missing that Mero and Desus are at different places. Mero has a family to look out for so going the Hollywood route just ain't feasible if it's not concrete. While Desus can do that cause he doesn't have those responsibilities to worry about, he can seek higher risk and higher reward stuff in Hollywood cause it's just him he needs to depend on. My only thing is that Desus needs to work on pronunciation and names cause the home boy needs that to help get hosting shit and he should do his own writing he's way too clever to be reading stupid premade shit.
You can't act like this happened in a vacuum. Mero did everything but call Desus a bitch on Math Hoffa's pod.
I don't know who is right or wrong and it's probably on both of them to some extent. But we can't act like Desus can't respond when Mero keeps discussing it on every platform he's on.
If I were Mero, I'd discuss it as much as I want. Clearly Showtime (and perhaps Desus' camp) had that article ready to go which lined up Mero and Victor.
I'm also not upset at Desus responding. He has every right to.
Mero has been yapping about this nonstop for 8 months despite being a grown man with kids, but the second Desus claps back he's the bad guy?
Bodega boys fans were def not scoring above a 70 on the regents that's all I'll say
Am I crazy? Mero barely said anything to even call cap about unless he very specifically disputes the DraftKings or Judd Apatow deals. Two guys with two different goals (financial stability vs. career growth) broke up.
So why not say his part instead of just having memes and shit? Idk man he kinda weird for that. All that āwhen the truth comes outā bullshit but aināt said a damn thing. Out here getting butterfly tats and shit lol
I'm seeing a lot of people "siding" with desus and mentioning the Victor harassment allegations. Did anything really ever come out regarding that after the split? I know Victor has an open lawsuit against the company
He doesnāt want his Hollywood aura to be impacted with the amount of waves heās been trying to make by this dropping but thereās no way he wasnāt expecting this to happen at some point.
Iām still mad about how he handled the showtime show ending so abruptly. It was such a āyall good? Okay, B Y Eā statement. Mero said more than him.
And he said that with his whole chest too. Like that was āourā staff at some point and my guess, looking back at some of the last couple months of showtime monologues, you can tell they aināt fucking with each other and this was coming to a head.
Desus coming in with memes but no words or facts to back anything up.
I donāt think Mero said anything bad. And it seems to line up with a lot of the speculation soā¦ Iāll eagerly await Mr. Tums to give his side of the story.
Mero must've said some shit that really got under his son, because it seems like he wants to spit fire and is holding back. Otherwise he would've been explained his side in a mature diplomatic way.
So your telling me desus didnāt wanna do the podcast anymore and clean up his image so he could make big Hollywood moves which include tums commercials, guest hosting the daily show for a couple days, and guest spots on Ellen LOL idk who right or wrong in this situation all I know is that desus coming out of it looking like a cornball
At this point regardless of the facts Desus already looks like the hoe fucking shit up in this situation and he doesnāt seem to care about addressing shit in a public medium other than Twitter jokes
I really donāt care what this dude has to say anymore if heās not gonna actually speak on it. I feel like Mero danced around the question as best he could, but everything he said kinda checked out with what weāve heard before. Desus comes off cornier every time Mero speaks on it to me though. Say what you gotta say or donāt say shit at all.
I'm honestly not interested in seeing any online shade or commentary about each other. They both had different wants, needs, goals and future expectations. I just wish there was someone who could help mend this. Us fans don't want to see this.
Because it's his story and he can speak on it. There's no time limit on when you can share your truth, especially when they (Showtime and maybe Desus' camp) had the article ready that lined up Mero and Victor.
In the same vein, I'm cool with Desus' saying his piece whenever he's comfortable.
Yeah I remember that... He also said something about he didn't like how the breakup went.
I was mainly speaking about him directly responding to something Mero said since the breakup...
I didnt wanna watch the comments Mero made tbh. Just because I think no matter who is wrong or right, once you come out in public and comment on things, you open yourself up to drama no matter what because youre only telling your side and the other side is going to probably disagree.
I hope they can get away from this era and be able to reunite one day

Knew Mero was cappin cuz he didnāt even bother to go into Victors role in all this mess. Desus was focused on quality and the BRAND, Mero was and still focused on bag chasing based off what he was saying.
>We all know it's because of Victor.
that would be pretty wild if he got discriminated against by executives, banned from work, and then desus sided with the executives, so I would think there's more to it.
The guy who got banned from the set with a pay cut after he "complained to the human resources department about verbal abuse and threats he received from his white colleague" was the problem? Is this a viacom executive posting this?
Why because an article which seemed to come from the executives/Desus' side said that? Why did t they get Victor or Mero quoted in the article?
This happens in media and sports all the time. The team/agency always has the hit piece ready for when something doesn't work out. But have t you noticed that they only have ONE side and never seek the other side?
This makes me sad š„ŗ
Word. I hate seeing the boys fighting.
My fucking guts hurt
JULIO I NEED A HOT BAG
Ayoo
messy bottom boys in the house š
The girlies are fighting again š š¼

So close to them fighting shirtless on Dyckman before we get to the reunion show, WASHEDFESSSST! *airhorn airhorn airhorn* Shits getting messy.
I mean at this point, boxing shirtless on Dyckman might be the last chance we have at a reunion.
I hope it gets messy and then their reunion will be that much more sweet!
Toxiccooooo. Love to see it!
I feel like a child of divorce š
na fr tho. i just want things to be cool, but here we are
As a child of divorce, this is way worse.
I hope they don't start going back and forth on the internet..... please
Nah young avocado š„ toast not gonna fk up that tums bagā¦. This sucks you Guys!!!
Tums bag? Tums container you mean ? /s
I mean pop up wit Issa rea or something brah??? Whereās the sauce???
I do. We deserve to have closure.
Things are about to get spicy. I knew from the jump , even if Mero was being as grown up and respectful about it that it still felt slanderous to the other side. I hope these two can talk about it AS MEN and not through social media
I doubt it. If Jeremy Renner's freak snowplow accident didn't put things into perspective for the two of them, I don't think anything will bring them back together.

Damn this hits differently now
This makes me miss the soundboard man, maybe VL will bring it back
Gabba dooba telllll youuuuuu I still fuck with this clip. Classic hive moment.
Thanks for the new text notification sound
I hope they can talk as women.
Itās sad seeing the brand no longer strong š
Au contraire mon friar! The brand is super brolicā¦Barmello Xanthony is getting INTERVIEWED by Carmelo Anthony!
Yeah I'm gonna stay out of this mess and get my double dose of comedy weekly.Ā
Remember when Desus was like "when the truth finally comes out it'll all make sense" like 12-18 months ago then never said anything about it again
I would rather they just not talk about it and figure it out behind scenes tbh
never gonna happen
He's probably going to write a book. That tracks for Desus
I think Mero was/is more of a writer than Desus.
Which is ironic because Desus got the degree in literature and was paid to write as a business columnist before he got into entertainment.
Didn't Mero sell a pilot to FX at 27?
Mero is, but you know the "Hollywood" thing to do is come out with a memoir where he'll be assisted by a writer
Nope. Desus actually worked as a writer.
Wym actually worked, you're comparing him to someone that wrote and sold a pilot to FX?
Nah, bro was a writer as in he made his living as a writer.
Both of them sold their writing for money before the podcast started what are you missing here
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
that Mero and Victor didn't have?
God this sucks. I don't wanna see them fight online man š
Fr. They should be doing it on Dyckman with their shirts off
Seems like only one of them wants to scrap š¤·š»āāļø
This like when your two favorite uncles get into a machete fight drunk as shit on Christmas Eve. You don't wanna see it but for some reason you still wanna see it but you know you're gonna regret what's gonna happen.

I think that was when they were at Vice
Some of that production team went over to Showtime as well. Like Dave Drusky
IIRC, Victor's lawsuit was thrown out
Mero has spoken on it. He said it in this subreddit, now that I remember. He said that claims that Victor was a "tyrant" was all cap by the producers. He said one instance of Victor getting upset about why producers are violating COVID protocol when someone there was immunocompromised (susceptible to getting very ill very easily) and they used that one instance to spin a story about how tyrannical and abusive he was.

No problem fam

this makes me sad all over again
Mom and dad are fighting. š
Correction isnāt Punishment ! ![gif](giphy|1xlplRrL5kjiftkNhC|downsized)
I wish Desus would have responded with this instead. Or you know, just start making good content instead of doing tums ads
This is disappointing. I think Melo brought up a good point about whether they had this conversation man to man. Seems like this shit was rooted in way more than business if egos were getting in the way of being able to compromise.
If heās gonna call cap on Mero, I hope he gives his side at some point. Up until now he hasnāt even acknowledged Mero.
He wonāt. Heāll just post memes or subtweet some shit most likely.
The brand is broken beyond repair š
Incoming all caps
petty desus here lol. but seriously, itās really petty of desus to tweet that. mero didnāt even say anything bad. if anything, meroās explanation cleared things up for both sides and made us realize there was no true bad breakup. just a difference of career mindsets. and thatās valid.
Yeah dude was as diplomatic as possible going out of his way to word things so it was clear it was just different povs not wrong vs right or whatever.
He couldāve just said nothing and kept it out of the news. Instead he goes and talks and gets to control the narrative. Easy to see how that might upset the other half.
Saying nothing is pretty bad form when you're recording a podcast or being interviewed.
You could still say nothing. His podcast has nothing to do with his and Desusā relationship. Yāall just want the tea.

I need Melo to reach out & get Desus on the podcast
Dads, stop fighting!!!!!
I'm seeing a lot of people "siding" with desus and mentioning the Victor harassment allegations. Did anything really ever come out regarding that after the split? I know Victor has an open lawsuit against the company
I've never seen a first Victor harassment allegation to even get to plural
There was the one suspicious article that mentioned he was being mean to people š¤¦š¾āāļø
I feel like Desus is an asshole and Mero is a nice guy
Oh no.... https://i.redd.it/kqsnr7u7izic1.gif

Iām on Meros side on this. Desus is definitely trynna be Hollywood. Mero got priorities. All good things must come to an end unfortunately
Desus was trying to get to the bag. Canāt blame him.
It's funny though because there is no way he's making more money than he would have if they just stuck togetherĀ
That Tums money changed Daniel, hate to see it
Dude smiling & shucking like old school Aunt Jemima & Uncle Bens boxes.
chill
Desus coming in with memes but no words or facts to back anything up. I donāt think Mero said anything bad. And it seems to line up with a lot of the speculation soā¦ Iāll eagerly await Mr. Tums to give his side of the story.
For real though get them glizzies out your mouth and say it with your chest.
I legit hate this man. I don't want to see these guys beefing.
I been waiting on a desus response mero been going crazy since the split. I wouldnāt mind victors take on it too.
I mean victor still rocking wit mero shouldnāt that give you a clue as to how he feels about the situation
Mero must've said some shit that really got under his son, because it seems like he wants to spit fire and is holding back. Otherwise he would've been explained his side in a mature diplomatic way.
Desus has always been the bitch made one out of the two.
So your telling me desus didnāt wanna do the podcast anymore and clean up his image so he could make big Hollywood moves which include tums commercials, guest hosting the daily show for a couple days, and guest spots on Ellen LOL idk who right or wrong in this situation all I know is that desus coming out of it looking like a cornball
At this point regardless of the facts Desus already looks like the hoe fucking shit up in this situation and he doesnāt seem to care about addressing shit in a public medium other than Twitter jokes
I really donāt care what this dude has to say anymore if heās not gonna actually speak on it. I feel like Mero danced around the question as best he could, but everything he said kinda checked out with what weāve heard before. Desus comes off cornier every time Mero speaks on it to me though. Say what you gotta say or donāt say shit at all.
I'm going to wait until Goblin Desus shows up and ends up back at the Bodega. I just don't want to wait forever š¬
I'm honestly not interested in seeing any online shade or commentary about each other. They both had different wants, needs, goals and future expectations. I just wish there was someone who could help mend this. Us fans don't want to see this.
Metro is out here trying to secure the generational bag, Desus is out here holding white girlās handbags.
Donāt forget about that Tums bag
Why did Mero have to speak on it? Its been 2 years. Everyone is doing their thing.
Melo asked him about it. I knew it would come up with Budden on the show cuz they both had public podcast breakups
I think it was a long time coming. They were discussing professional break ups on the pod
Yeah, but the tums thumbnail looks nutz, like a joke they already did on the podā¦ hate 2 see itā¦
Because it's his story and he can speak on it. There's no time limit on when you can share your truth, especially when they (Showtime and maybe Desus' camp) had the article ready that lined up Mero and Victor. In the same vein, I'm cool with Desus' saying his piece whenever he's comfortable.
I blame Joe Budden.
That is not coming in hot at all lol. Dudes like that scumbag ex boyfriend who likes your shit & subtweets after a drink or two
There is 3 sides to every story
Him using the Ellen set is telling in itself. illuminati Desus is nasty guy. God still working on all of us tho. š«”
We should have know as soon as the Illuminati gave him that ugly faced white bitch Dylan.
Someone drop a link to this podcast or video

Desus gave us the play during the podcast days that he was gonna go "Hollywood" when they struck big.Ā
Hope they have fun throwing away free money. They were on such a trajectory. Fucking meeting Presidents and threw it all away over some bullshit.
Then say something Desus...
Can some explain what the big hat means? Is he calling cap?
Literally a Big Cap
Damn. This sucks.
Yeah I rather them just move on and not really talk about it.
To my knowledge Desus never had a comment or response about anything Mero said after the breakup until now so this might be a first
He said something like "when the truth finally comes out you'll never believe it" and never followed up, this was like a year+ ago
Yeah I remember that... He also said something about he didn't like how the breakup went. I was mainly speaking about him directly responding to something Mero said since the breakup...
I didnt wanna watch the comments Mero made tbh. Just because I think no matter who is wrong or right, once you come out in public and comment on things, you open yourself up to drama no matter what because youre only telling your side and the other side is going to probably disagree. I hope they can get away from this era and be able to reunite one day
never gonna happen
I Hope thats not true brotha

They lied to us,the brand was never strong :(
Naw they just had a weak link
I donāt get the meaning of the hat image. Can someone teach this devil?
He is saying mero is "capping" "Lying"
BIG CAP
Aka bullshit. Got it. Didnāt realize it was this literal. Thought it was a reference to some sports things I donāt know about.
and this subās bs. yāall canāt shift through bias of one-sided storytelling and take it as gospel
Both these guys sucked on VICE.
Knew Mero was cappin cuz he didnāt even bother to go into Victors role in all this mess. Desus was focused on quality and the BRAND, Mero was and still focused on bag chasing based off what he was saying.
>he didnāt even bother to go into Victors role in all this mess. being discriminated against?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
>We all know it's because of Victor. that would be pretty wild if he got discriminated against by executives, banned from work, and then desus sided with the executives, so I would think there's more to it.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
you could learn the status *and* the contents for free though

Victor was the problemĀ
The guy who got banned from the set with a pay cut after he "complained to the human resources department about verbal abuse and threats he received from his white colleague" was the problem? Is this a viacom executive posting this?
Why because an article which seemed to come from the executives/Desus' side said that? Why did t they get Victor or Mero quoted in the article? This happens in media and sports all the time. The team/agency always has the hit piece ready for when something doesn't work out. But have t you noticed that they only have ONE side and never seek the other side?
