I'll still listen to PMT, though I'm more eelective with the interviews and segments
This. I'll catch certain episodes but im not going back to catch up with old episodes i missed unless it is LSU relevant or an interview with someone I like.
I will say i still enjoy listening which is pretty impressive considering how long the podcasts run.
Jerry O'Connell normally cracks me up.

I know I’m in the minority but I like Brandon Walker and Mark Titus. They have daily show called Mostly Sports. It’s the podcast I listen to the most. Idk why the New York office is still open, besides Frank the Tank that place is useless. They could trim the fat from Chicago and close New York down and be a lot better from a social media business.

Its more celeb drama than actual sports anymore.

They tried to get me on board in 2021 on a 6 month contract that could have turned full time if I did a good job in that 6 month period. Flew people out to meet me where I lived at the time. Most unprofessional organization I've ever dealt with. No idea what any of them were doing. I cancelled a trip home to go to my sister's 30th birthday in order to meet with these clowns.
I believe you. When the Barstool Sportsbook App launched under Penn, it was clear that folks like KFC, Feits, Robby Fox, etc. were never going to come off as authentic sports bettors to influence.
Penn didn’t care about anything else but App acquisition. The thought process was paying a Golden Nugget $100,000 a year for content that he would at least know a dozen guys losing 5-figures a year that he could leverage his personal relationship, like a casino host, to get them using their branded app in exchange for sometimes access to Big Cat and Dave at VIP Events.
People like to bash Ben Mintz for his lack of content sometimes. However, I bet he is worth 5X his salary to DraftKings for the connections he directs to their App behind the scenes and that benefits Barstool.

Son of a Boy Dad is the best podcast they put out right now
The last few have been great

It's the only thing I consistently listen to now. I used to like the Yak but ever since they moved to Chicago, it's like a youtube show for 12 year olds.

For anything that doesn’t involve Dave or Big Cat, Chicks in the Office is probably their biggest and most profitable product.
Foreplay, Spittin Chicklets, Bussin w the Boys (RIP), YAK, The Dozen all make them good money. In office drama on Stool Scenes doesn’t make them anything.

Brandon and Mark are great. The majority of the people in this thread probably don’t even know what Mostly Sports is because they don’t actually keep up with Barstool as a whole.

Because they signed a long term lease for the New York office whenever Penn bought them. Once that runs out I think they are going to have a major downsize.

Brandon Walker knows ball. Or at least he thinks he does

The Dozen Trivia is pretty cool. Well scripted with tough sports questions.

Nugget would be great on barstool

Multi, multi million dollar media company with hundreds of employees and can’t edit a YouTube trivia show though

I’m picturing a round table show where Travis Gregory Stano debates Roaro Kleibenachnott and Rennis Rinke while Nugget moderates.

Same. It’s a total shitshow over there. I heard good things about their Chicago branch, though. But outside of PMT, I don’t know who any of those people are.

Most of their personalities bring nothing to the table and are boring with the exceptions of Biz, Whit, Gruden and Frank the Tank.

It’s basically gambling and made up drama instead of sports at this point. They have been on the down slope for like 5 years
Posted on 4/11/25 at 5:33 pm to Sheriff Brackett
The yak and PMT is still a great podcast. I don’t really listen to the other stuff

I’m a sucker for Barstool after dark
