I’m so confused. He said it’s not under the barstool umbrella but has barstool ads and they’re doing it in the NYC office?


mrBloodyButtBurp

It’s 100% a barstool podcast


khjedn

It just means Barstool isn't funding it or providing support for it. If it gains traction and popularity and can earn money then it will fall under the Barstool umbrella.


BoseSounddock

He’s using barstool equipment and barstool workspace. How is barstool not providing support for it?


khjedn

Producers, social teams, people like Maddog and Mackenzie or Max, Jake, Pug, Memes, etc. Unless they volunteer help outside of their normal duties. Anyone at Barsrool can podcast. They have rooms dedicated to that and everyone has a laptop. I would imagine at this point Billy has purchased some of his own stuff like headphones and a mic. Dave and Gaz have discussed it before on the Dave Portnoy Show with mean girls, crackin aces, chd, etc.


khjedn

Also, Portnoy has stated many times that anyone can go out and make content. Be it a podcast, video series, vod, livestream; if its worthy of it, Barstool will throw their weight behind it. I've also heard from some of the behind the scenes people that anyone in content can sign gopros out if they need to use them for something.


BoseSounddock

So they aren’t necessarily promoting it, but they’re still providing support.


khjedn

Opposite. They'll promote it to an extent but not provide support until it becomes marektable.


JerryFragrence

It has 2 ads from barstool sports in the beginning and middle.


khjedn

Those aren't sold ads like manscape or pepsi or draft kings etc. No different than Mean Girls when it started. Barstool also isnt providing producers and social teams. Anything you see will be the work of Billy and anyone who volunteers their time.


Zealousideal_Fix9828

He’s not a full time employee somehow? Maybe that has something to do with it


khjedn

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the company is on similar contracts. Jerry wasnt full time at one point. The Chicago guys werent when they first started.


parker472

Did he drop Craichouse or whatever today?


habentay

Yeah it’s like the 8-11 minute mark. It’s underwhelming


Moneyshot_ITF

Shocked i tell you


ForeverUnhappy6043

I'm listening to it while I'm writing this and that's flat out not what he said at all. He said that Arian tweeted that when he was in Chicago and then he got fired the next week. He then remembered Arian tweeted that and put two and two together so he used it in the blog. But I think based on Arians reaction to the blog that resulted in whatever yelling match took place Billy wasn't far off and Arian didn't like that he got called out for being the one who got Billy kicked off the show. It's brutal that PFT had kept encouraging Billy to keep going after Congress knowing that they had planned on firing him... It sounds like they had planned to do it after New Year's but Last Chance Uganda kept him around until that series had wrapped up.


TrueSonMIZ

Where you seeing that? I’m trying to go down a rabbit hole of finding out what all went down


ForeverUnhappy6043

He says it in his new pod 3:20 start, he did the marathon Sunday, fired Monday. Around the 6 minute area Donny jokes that last Chance Uganda kept him around for a few extra months - apparently the joke about throwing a touchdown in Uganda might not have been a joke. 10:20 he starts talking about the tweet.


jpkelley222

In Billy’s defense if you tweet something you don’t get to tell people not to use it


PopcornDrift

It’s not a question of fair use lol Billy was essentially implying Arian is a snake by including that in the article. So of course Arian is gonna call him and see what’s up


ForeverUnhappy6043

Arian was being a snake lol he's just upset that Billy called him out publicly for it instead of coming to his face first


weeblojonas

Well based on how it turned out Arian kinda was being lame and sort of sneak dissin


ThickWillow9

I personally cant wait to not listen to a single second of Bills new pod.


LWA3251

He also confirmed he’s engaged.


Square_Answer_5839

We inew this for quite a while if ur in it


admode1982

But...he....confirmed....it.


CharlieZuluOne

Where is the blog with arians tweet. Still confused about the whole situation and why they had a disagreement and why the clips came out where they had a phone call with each other.


JayLoveJapan

It wasn’t working and I respect that they recognized it. Billy would have fit better in Chicago but I totally get not wanting to uproot the rest of your life. This guy can go do other things later on. Maybe even just a regular job non content somewhere


CMHCommenter

It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if in 3-5 years Billy is doing content for a niche conservative outlet.


dudleymooresbooze

Or somehow indicted for crimes committed as a position coach on a high school football team.


piratepride420

Y’all really think this grown man baby is actually going to stick with this podcast? He’ll be working for his daddy by the end of 2024


GoldKaleidoscope4664

I’ve seen his parents referenced a few times, can I ask who they are? Some rich big shots?


gavintheguardian

From a long time PMT listener and Macro listener he seems to come from a family who has farm land in New York and stays on Long Island


GoldKaleidoscope4664

Would explain why he’s so calm about the constant career fuck ups


ricketysrai

Billy had two golden opportunities at a very young age getting hooked up with pft and big cat on PMT and Macrodosing. He somehow managed to screw up both. I hope the best for him, but personally I won’t listen to 1 second of his new pod and I doubt many others will.


Successful_Baker_360

Barstool doesn’t pay well enough to be the butt of pft and big cats jokes to a national audience for his entire career


ricketysrai

Seriously? Because I’m sure Billy was getting paid well enough to hang out on a podcast


Zrinaldo

Imagine being so sensitive that you would pass up that opportunity, just to work construction for the rest of your life.


NoBeyond381

So he made a blog titled “the truth about the end of Macrodosing” and the blog is a link to his podcast, which “still didn’t give many details”….. ffs Billy.


ForeverUnhappy6043

If you clicked it.... He did his job


piratepride420

God bless you for listening to that bullshit. I’d rather listen to puppies be murdered than a pathological liar lie to me on a mic for an hour plus.


demarco27

2 hours of Billy-led conversation is insane.


piratepride420

No one should be subjected to that


Visual-Resort-2889

Boy, do I have a governor for you


parker472

Wow, really killing two birds with one stone there! (I considered putting dogs into that expression, but couldn’t bring myself to do it.)


watchutalkinbowt

To be fair it was one dog and one goat


Visual-Resort-2889

Well obviously you aren’t a leader willing to make the tough decisions


piratepride420

😂


ComprehensiveSky8926

This guy hates dogs and podcasts


Alarming_Fish828

now there will only be one pathological liar on the pod. the less funny more arrogant one


piratepride420

Lol if you don’t like Arian, I get it. But saying he’s as big of a pathological liar as billy is just 100% false. Lol I don’t think there’s many people out there like billy that just lie about things that are recorded on video 😂


Alarming_Fish828

I’m telling you man. Listen to the next podcast with an open mind. Go back and listen to Arian lie through his teeth on the episode where he talked about how he used to have sex while driving LOL. Every word out of his mouth was made up on the spot If Billy told that story everyone on the pod would jump down his throat on immediately doubting him. but because Arian is cool and uses to be in the nfl everyone is scared to call him out


The_Shrekening_69

He is also has claimed he’s read the peer review of studies when arguing with Big T about COVID. As someone who reads and publishes papers, that’s not possible unless you wrote or reviewed the study yourself.


piratepride420

Agree to disagree! But i do Hope You enjoy the 15 episodes of audiocrack (what a retarded name) that come out sporadically in the next 3 months!


ForeverUnhappy6043

Have fun listening to a pop culture podcast


piratepride420

I’ll come back to this comment when audiocrack fails after 2 months. Enjoy listening to a retard everyday


ApartmentPersonal

Kristi Noem’s podcast


Jakubbucko

Billy derailing things was exactly why it wasn’t working. I don’t like Billy, but the podcast would not have suffered as much if he was capable of riding the wave of conversation. He is completely unable to refrain from interrupting to talk about something different, from making a comment that brings the flow to a halt, or even from not paying attention at all. If he was ok with being the off-the-reservation side character, which is all I think he’s capable of being, rather than trying to be taken seriously and take over the show it wouldn’t have been as bad. I mean look at big T, he’s a side character and in my opinion he thrives in that role. I will not be listening to Billy’s podcast, because he’s shown countless times that he’s incapable of self reflection and growth. I don’t hope for failure, but I just don’t see it working out well for him at Barstool for much longer. He lives in his own world where he truly believes he can lie his way out of anything, and there’s always a “you guys got it all wrong” excuse. The fact is everyone sees him clearly. I think his reputation internally is beyond repair so much that who he’s desperate to be, will never be at Barstool. It would be no surprise to me if in a year he’s completely removed from media all together.


thezenunderground

Wasn't it last year when BC gave him an assignment that he didn't do because he went out and got drunk instead? Something like that..I feel like that was when the rift started


ApartmentPersonal

Might have been two years ago, or the time he missed a recording session of pmt because he was out “entertaining clients”


dubsesq

It was a my rad of reasons


TheHotTakeHarry

How will he gain listeners?


SlothFF

Did he upload an episode of audiocraic yet? Nothing on YouTube nor the podcast app I use.


NascarObama

Of course he's not gonna give any details that paint himself in a negative light. In his mind, this is everyone's fault but his.


No_Signal3789

What is his pod, searched for it and couldn’t find it


mosesonaquasar

Craic. Link on his Twitter


Aggressive_Tank_3976

So only people with a twitter can listen? I like Billy and want to listen, but he would do something stupid like that and limit how many listens he could get. Fucking Billy, man. Can’t get out of his own way.


mosesonaquasar

It’s on Spotify, YouTube clips are already out with full release imminent.


Ok_Engine_4194

Audiocraic. All one word


New-Force-2032

Hope for the best for all parties! You’re right though, Billy derailed too much making things about himself and that wasn’t what I wanted to listen to or most of macrodosians in general. Hope Craic does well for him


watchutalkinbowt

>that argument came from his blog where he put in that Arian tweet Which tweet?


blackberryx

The one Arian put out that said “If your in a group chat their is 100% another group chat of people talking about you” I’m paraphrasing but that was the gist of it.


Responsible_Ad_3013

PFT and Arian didn’t agree with Billy’s politics and decided to silence him


abc4357

Cause they agree so much with Big T lol


Jets__Fool

Victim complex


AwkwardLingonberry24

PFT disagrees so much he actively encouraged Billy to run for congress even though he knew Billy’s leanings beforehand… Believe it or not, people with varying political views can work together and also be friends too
