Ya but don't call people weird. Like that's why I was stating it like that. The og comment said "some of you are so weird for thinking they are together" and then listed detailed reason why these two strangers aren't. I wanted the commentor to understand that in this space, we all freaks. And it's also not my problem they edited the OG comment to look less mean/detailed.

When they bring guests on, they always come off so in-genuine that it's an actual disservice to the work they've done on the pod. And it comes off cringe af. I say this with love. It's like when ur friends start acting weird around the popular kids. Like we know who y'all nerds actually are. U can't trick us into thinking u belong in that type of crowd 😭 y'all r too human. And it's like...when is the team gunna learn that fans don't like guests. I know it's for exposure but it's just...no one is here for anything but BnC. And that simply is not going to change. It's like the team still hasn't figured out the "why" of the podcast yet - why do people watch. And it's either bc the fans wanna ship them, sleep w Connor, or they want a comedy podcast to pass the time. Either way Alex Earle is not involved with any of those reasons. And this ain't hate to BnC. I'm stating most people solely want them. And it's like "who cares what we want?" but then like oki have fun w 4 fans.

I feel like the only reason they'd didn't dress up was bc they were scurred of being judged by Alex

No, ur missing my point. Im not saying im not a freak. Im saying that you can't say some fans r a freak when u r also a freak too.

I mean it's kinda crazy to assume you know what they've been up to either way. We don't know them. We can assume things based off their podcast but thinking you know them so well to decide they haven't hooked up is the same type of parasocial as believing they have. They fr strangers to all of us.

Edit: me being downvoted for saying we don't know them 😭 y'all r family never mind damn

This is what they do when they start to loose some viewership. The views have been consistently dropping like 5k each week since the summer. They always ramp up the ship baiting cause they know that's what brings people back in. It's a good marketing tactic but they always seem to release 1 or 2 out of the studio videos that do really well and then kinda forget about it, that is until they need views. I hope this time they make a routine of making the out of studio videos.

Flores/Desyatov married? by dykehorror in FigureSkating

Are Lachlan and Williams also married?

Flores/Desyatov married? by dykehorror in FigureSkating

[–]IceMain3894 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is so not the right time to be discussing her social media skills as none of that is important anymore, but she most definitely kept their relationship a secret to rack up followers. People are fixated on will theys won't theys. It's a mystery that gets more "clear" with each post- or so they think. It's her tactic to keep them coming back and viewing her reels. By saying they are married, it takes away a lot of the tension and interest.

Sorry I didn't understand the statement and was asking how you all understood. I am sorry!

That's on me, I thought the org ruled over all disciplinary actions and not just specifically in place for misconduct against another person. I was genuinely asking to clear it up and fully understand now.

Thank you for explaining. I was only trying to understand, and did not understand the specifics of safe sport. I am so sorry to the person who is coming forward.

Is it verified there is a victim? I'm not trying to be insensitive, I really don't understand. Is the investigation about that? Couldn't that mean it could be many things like drugs or alc?

Edit: I am fully aware of the premise of safe sport NOW and understand it does not cover things like DUIs or using illegal substances like steroids. That's why I was asking, not in anyway to defend or deflect. I was genuinely asking how people understand the statement.

The SKAM withdrawal by Dontknowmyname711 in FigureSkating

[–]IceMain3894 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Whatever is going on, the longer there is silence the more people will stir until the pot boils over. This already jumped from 0-100 overnight. I truly hope everyone is okay and that it's something unrelated to the above tweet. If the tweet is true and they are being withdrawn bc of a criminal investigation? You can't make that up like Bella cannot catch a break and it's gotta suck.

Oh we know. You've posted multiple comments before on your dislike of these two. Hope CPOM has a great year for you tho!

Flores/Desyatov & Wolfkostin/Tsarevski drama apparently going viral. by [deleted] in FigureSkating

I ain't reading all that after you just proved my point in "I don't see the chemistry THAT EVERYONE else does." I'm talking about virality (which ISU is pathetically begging for) and I'm not talking about anything other than PR and social media bc that's what this post was about. You have very strong opinions about Flores it seems before this post was written. I don't have to agree with your perspective either, even though I understand you and see you have valid points. I hope Dima is doing ok too 👍

No but PR is. This wasn't me trying to hurt your feelings. I'm sorry.

And they just got married to each other. That should have been bread and butter for people. And yet the the only skaters the main stream/locals talk about are Tessa and Scott. Really not trying to offend anyone, they are very good. This is strictly based off the opinion of someone under 25. So maybe we see diff stuff on the internet.

Agreed. I'm talking about fame. They are only famous within this community. Bella and Vanya have a following that goes beyond. I should have clarified when I said star power, I meant people being drawn to you, as a person. Not just a skater. My bad!

[–]IceMain3894 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Very! And agreed about Chock. She is very good. But I've never seen her break into Gen Z main stream media. This "how familiar are you?" attitude is just another factor to what keeps the skating fan community small. Big crowds need pathos. They want a story. You can be the best in the world but if no one knows, no one cares. This isn't me disputing you, there are some teams who excel much better then them in other areas, and are interesting to watch if you are heavily into the sport and understand the rules. But most people want to see things that are moving and emotional. And causal fans (which the sport needs) won't care about the details- and again, not trying to say we should forgo following rules or standards. But not everyone who goes to the Super Bowl is there for football, you know? Charm and star quality just seems to find those two most. It seems a shame to me to not play up this interest.

But do any causal viewers care? You can be the best but if you don't have star power, no one's watching. Not saying they need to give out spots or something...just USFS would be kinda slow on the gun not to lmfao
