No one has ever said on planet earth omg did you hear Mals or Rory take on X subject.

It is always omfg did you hear what joe did...

Isnt Drink Champs for legends?

Edit: Oh you mean as cohost?

Don’t do that lol, Mal and Rory gave us classic moments and takes.

“That’s crazy!!”

The highlight of measly mal career

mal sports takes were carrying the pod at one point as well as rorys sleepers

Pull Up

Joe: says something vague as f***
Artist: what?
Joe: This guy is good man...

For sure but it was huge cultural moments. Name one major thing that shifted the culture. The only hard stance i can think is Rory hating ak or Mal s***ting on Tory Lnaez. Joe gave us a million classics moments.

You think podcasters shift the culture?

Rory had good sleepers.
Mal had okay sports takes. He should have launched his sports podcast joe tried to make him do. but he's too cool for school.

I’m done caping for Mal and Rory itt lol. You guys wanna support a snake like Joe go ahead.

Yes and No. Depends on how define it.

Joe's Views review was a massive moment in hop hop what sparked a mini beef. so we got music out of it.

this really is a great lesson for so many people.

you don’t ‘deserve’ equity. you negotiate equity.

ppl really are getting the friendship side of this, which is natural bc we all have friends, but they’re not getting the business side.

everything Joe did was standard and some of the offers he made those two were truly above and beyond, for example, offering rory footage for free to use as content however he sees fit. that’s an unbelievable offer tbh. and apparently, their salaries were also fairly extravagant.

rory and mal messed up if their expectations were more to be made owners of something they didn’t conceive.

Its only seems snakish because they were friends. If they were new people hired exclusively to host this wouldn't be a discusion. The friendship blurred the lines but at the end of the day looking past the emotions its business.
1. Joe brought them on to do a job
2. they did the job and thought they were partners.
3. everyone is to blame for not defining it properly (but then again they have a contract so its defined.)

Moral of the story its very hard to mix biz with pleasure.

Exactly, thats an unbelievable offer. Some photographers or creatives dont even get to repurpose or reuse art they created because they partnered with a brand for a project who owns it all since they PAID for it all.

Obviously lmao

Men Lie, Women Lie but numbers don't lie. The eps with new guys started slow but picked up once people realized that the dudes gave it up.

People will continue to tune in as they have done and potentially in new droves to see what else is said and what more drama comes out of this. Like the Spotify expose episodes which saw a spike in traffic.

yeah.

I don't know where the narrative started that homeboy's a great interviewer came from. Them pull ups be yawn fests.

The only ones that was decent was Crooked I and Vince, and that was only because of THEM. And I still don't know why he aint dropped the former one in full.

Idk who down bad worse, Rory and mal or their fans itt. Niggas used to be in here vicariously living thru them like they were some industry bosses to be exposed as bums

he could've also started a youtube page with a compilation of all his awful sports takes from the pod and im sure one of them could've went viral

but he didnt.

He was completely satisfied doing the bare minimum until he realized hes not a boss, has no ownership, or say on boss s***.

You are an EMPLOYEE.

facts.

I think one of the reasons Joe is going so hard at Rory specifically is bc Rory has to know s*** like this. Mal, I can see not being aware, bc Idk if he’s ever had a real job, but Rory, working in marketing and whatnot, he had to know this s***. I think Joe looks at Mal as ignorant and he looks at Rory like he really tried to use friendship to finesse him.

100000000%

I'd love to know why they went on strike AGAIN

Like if you re gonna come back and get s*** on by joe in front of all your fans you d think they d thought it thru to just suck it up and stick with it

Did they really decide to strike again with a whole new game plan like "THIS TIME HE LL CAVE!"

That’s a sick emoji lmfaooooooo I’m crying

tbh I was disappointed in Joe when he brought them back. just from a business perspective didn’t make sense lol

No they aren’t. State of the culture and the others shows on his network are all trash.

His biggest asset was the JBP which Mal and Rory brought a lot of value to.

Joe tried to build a network off the success of the JBP and didn’t want to cut them in on it but then get mad when they don’t perform the way he wants lol.

Rory had the most viewed episode on the other shows on his network.

Joe is a spin master. Rory and Mal barely said anything outside of the pod. Joe just using them leaving as a way to create more content.
