Lol we could see that coming from a mile away. Mero got a family, Desus doesnt.

Yeah, it was lowkey obvious desus had eventual plans to move on and do bigger things. He's supposedly subbed for Fallon recently. Wouldn't be surprised if he goes to basic cable late night

For sure and they werent super cool friends as they portrayed though. They knew each other in HS but became a unit when their jokes started hittin off on twitter 6-7 years ago. So they were super cool for the bag.

R&M are producing less and less content. shorter pods, lackluster patreonage. shyt is weak

I’m betting on Desus coming through with the Jerrod Carmichael “I’m gay” rebrand to officially separate himself from the D&M name completely moving forward. He will land on daytime TV eventually.

“Big dikk Darrel”

Probably my favorite pod clip ever cause of how Mal be trying to play it off and get called out for it

0:00 and 11:50

is Desus gay? lol

But it looks like Mero is the one who bounced because SHowtime didn't want their manager around. Desus wanted him to go but Mero was like nah bc the manager been with them since day one

theyve been terrible from episode 1 tbh

 

[Brandsdale]

think this pod, along with others working without a network, will die soon.

this nikka has full interviews with some fairly big artists but they barely even crack 200k views. Podcasts in general dont get much views on Youtube unless you're an 85 south show or Brilliant Idiots but mind you, these are folks who are legit entertainers or comedians.

Everyone else is lucky to crack 200k views on their own and tbh if you're talking about the same re-hashed shyt like everyone else, you'll compete with everyone doing that, regardless of what high-priced studio you shoot in. If you want the views and the bread, you gotta sign with someone or make some content thats groundbreaking

is that the case? Desus was cool with getting rid of Victor Lopez and Mero said no way?

yes, I personally think Desus has been undercover gay this whole time, and will reveal it sometime in the next several months.

I actually just finished listening to the Math Hoffa podcast with Mero as the guest, which looks like it was recorded in the last couple weeks. Mero was talking about how he was sticking with the manager, Victor, all the way because they wouldn’t have had any real opportunities in the first place if it weren’t for Victor.

Mero also slightly mentioned how during the Obama interview they did a while ago, Barack mentioned how Mero has a wife and 4 kids but asked Desus something like “wassup with you, why no wife and kids yet?”…on some intimation if he’s gay or what.

shyt i never got that impression from desus.

About them as duo: THem nikkas will never be as poppin on their own as they are as a duo. Nikkas stay fckin up a good thing. Their late night show was really makin waves out here wit people.

Why would they or any other pod need a network?
Cool, you goin off of youtube views.......... on a podcast.
What are the podcast download numbers since you seem to have them to say "these pods will die soon"(Not only for JBP for Math's stuff and others too)
What were/are the patreon numbers?

What interviews with big artists are you talkin about? The last interview with a big artist was Nicki and that's at 2.5M. Most the other interviews are behind the patreon paywall so the views wouldnt even matter.

I fukk with Rory and Mal but nobody cares about them like most podders. That’s why I say give Joe his flowers. 99 percent of these dudes live if guests even Rogan
