He did talk about how doing Worlds Beyond and Rude Tales was too much, so I imagine he's still busy but not unhealthily so.

Feels like he could show up as a guest in piss harbor maybe, the format lends itself to the possibility of a low-commitment appearance

Oof I hope that’s untrue. It sounded cordial enough officially but there’s no reason why I a stranger should know about any nasty interpersonal stuff that’s not my business so you never know I guess.

Strange, I thought the current understanding was that he'd been working himself to the point of literal hallucination trying to do all the sound design and editing for both Rude Tales and Worlds Beyond Number and had to hand off his part of the effort so he didn't kill himself in the sound booth. You know, less "I hate all of you" and more "I am bleeding through my eyeballs from the stress and can't keep up this workload anymore."

edit: To wit, this reddit comment (have another truckload of salt lol) claims he was experiencing hallucinations and dementia symptoms, and their Patreon post on the matter says the breakup was largely due to his prioritizing his health.

Taylor himself posted the thing about having hallucinations and his health going to poo poo because of the stress and workload on the discord, and they never sounded like it was acrimonius. They lost a hell of an editor on super short notice and had to go find not only someone to replace him but somewhere else to host the podcast. Lot of stress all around, but it never sounded like bad blood.

the "acrimonious as hell" comment seems to be from another poster in that reddit thread which seems to be for totally unsourced gossip / making poo poo up

I could believe that the working relationships got strained and that Taylor just wants to focus on WBN going forward but speculating on any of it just feels gross

The real reason is Brandon was super jealous that Taylor came up with Carboat bin Laden, and hell I can’t blame him.

That was always my understanding based on public statements from the people involved yeah. If anything else happened privately that’s none of my business

I read that statement and I think Taylor's probably exaggerating/lying about most of it but I shouldn't speculate.

The split was abrupt, but what surprised me was how little Taylor and the Rude Tales crew have apparently spoken about it all - that, combined with the absolute lack of collaboration? It had to have been an intense split, even if there wasn't animosity, per se.

Yeah it’s weird that he’s a complete ghost and hasn’t showed up as a player or something as a guest spot. Maybe he really is just that busy that he doesn’t have time, I dunno

DoctorWhat

A little privacy, please?
Even under the least personally acrimonious inciting circumstances, like a health collapse, It would suck to be left in the lurch with no editor.

Rude Tales was off the air for months because Taylor stepped away. Even if stepping away was the least bad thing Taylor could do at that moment, there were weeks and months leading up to that point where better management and communication would have made a better outcome possible. Grown adults have a professional responsibility to consider their health before it becomes a crisis whenever possible, and managers/employers/partners have a responsibility to identify and address health and performance issues in a professional manner.

Clearly, those responsibilities were not met by one or both parties, or things would have gone different. The result was months of money trouble and lost productivity/artistic fulfillment. That causes serious rifts in any work environment and between even the closest friends.

I'm glad we got the Casketshowroom special on the These Those patreon feed while we still could. I relistened to it recently - listening to that while driving is taking your life into your own hands.

Yeah, I don't have any insider info or even read anything about the show besides this thread, so my conspiracy is completely based on the story seeming to wrap quickly, and Taylor completely disappearing. I would want to get out of something I made with someone else pretty quickly if they had to bail like that too, even if it was completely friendly.

This will be an unpopular take but almost all of the animatics out there for RT aren’t particularly good at capturing what makes the show great. I like the characters just fine but cutting Brandon’s unhinged narration robs it of anything really interesting. The characters just don’t work with that vacuum in place.

I don’t honestly think I’ve found a good clip of the show on YouTube you could show someone that wasn’t familiar with the show already.
