I'm not great at parsing reddit UI but I did look and reddit/patreon seem to be way less critical compared to twitter and here (lol)

I got 15 minutes into this episode with noted sexual predator Rob Lowe before dipping out and deleting it. not sure what I expected but was pretty mediocre

MY FRIEND Chris Pratt told me about intermittent fasting, did you know I had noted piece of poo poo Gwyneth Paltrow on MY PODCAST

not super upset about the rob lowe thing but on the other hand i've got a podcast backlog building up so i'm going to skip the episode where they ask the sex criminal what his favorite milkshake flavor is

I'm sure it's whatever was in fashion in the year 1986 before he had to commit to a one meal a day diet to continue looking like a leading man at age 56.

now the answer is "I wish I could have a milkshake, oh god I wish I could just taste one drop"

I wonder if he asked to do the podcast and they didn't want to say no. I don't believe for a moment that Nick Wiger had never heard of these allegations, he loves hearing about this stuff.

Rob Lowe recently started some lovely podcast on Stitcher with Team Coco, I'm sure there were reasons that prevented them from being able to easily say no.

Also, the guy just never actually got cancelled. The poo poo's well-known but he's been a fixture of network TV for most of our lives and starred in two of the shows that viewers and critics who think they're "as progressive as it gets" would hold up as having exemplary politics. I don't blame anyone for being upset and I'm glad they're listening to that but I do get why they didn't think of him as beyond the pale when the people with much larger platforms apparently don't either.

100% he has some project coming out and that project's marketing team contacted the boys or ppl at headgum

as for why they agreed i could only speculate wildly

It's this. Feels like a Headgum directive to get a recognized, non-comedy-world name for people who don't know Doughboys to give the podcast a try.

It must be from a directive considering that Wiger purposely sabotaged any chances of them getting a TV show.

I mean not really, they work in entertainment in LA so all their friends would know about it, plus a large contingent of the fans brought it up when they announced the guest spot.

Huh, I was considering canceling my Patreon, but that's actually a pretty good response from the 'boys. In retrospect I could believe that the choice of guest wasn't 100% theirs.

Do they have private messages enabled for patreon subscribers? If they do, you should definitely send them a message about how you were going to cancel but didn't, but at the same time pressure them about why you felt that way.
