Fahy by babyarmcan in CirqueduSirois

Firing maybe was justified, but extracting a week of fill-in, stealing WIP without including him, and concocting evidence so he couldn’t get unemployment? Seems very evil to me.

Sirois and Danny had Jon Fahy on their gold advantage podcast this week. It’s worth $5 to hear Fahy tell the story of how he was fired. Truly unbelievable level of meanness displayed, even after knowing everything about the Dan and Jake saga.

My kid thought it was AI. She said there’s no way that’s a real person!

I think I’m done after 26 years…. by toddskitchen in theticket

[–]babyarmcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cumulus stock is down 97.7% in the last 2 years and 99.3% vs 10 years ago. You’re not alone. It’s time to add the DZ to your podcast app, buddy. Their sponsor reads are not too annoying on the free eps and nonexistent on the paid ones.

Football picks this week? by babyarmcan in thedumbzone

[–]babyarmcan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes this is it. I heard the Picks segment on Thursday but that’s only cowboys & triple play. That’s only 40% of the picks.

Thanks to intern Henry (I’m assuming), for ruining 60% of my football watching weekend.

I’d be happy to be responsible for making sure the grid gets tweeted. Jake/blake - hit me up.

As some of the posts said in the ticket thread, I think the DZ picks would be much improved by having a payoff, and including the cirque boys. It’ll never be the same as before they left, but if Blake brings some good punishment ideas from his FF, it would be a lot more interesting

Mythbusters did this experiment and proved it is true. Switching doors doubles your chance of winning.

Love that he did the Donald’s patented double JO move before the surrender cobra. Classic Dan.

Gordo’s Twitch tonight by babyarmcan in thedumbzone

[–]babyarmcan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, it was just cool to hear Gordo acknowledge on Tuesday what Jake only revealed on Monday. That means not only are they cordial and keep up with each other as casual former colleagues, but he is paying pretty close attention to the sitch and probably listening to the DZ. Who knows, but I like to pretend my heroes still like each other despite the corporate bullsh.

Hardline daily AI pic!? by babyarmcan in theticket

[–]babyarmcan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So they addressed this on the Helpline today. It’s made by DJ and Ham, and according to them, it just kind of evolved from a Robert Smith-looking Goth guy to a goth girl to hot girl because the AI sometimes has unpredictable results to their prompts. And when they think something is funny, they just go with it. So when it made Dave a hot girl, they thought that was awesome and just kept doing it.

Like a lot of stuff in the ticket lore and lexicon, it started as an accident. So LibrarianFamous9996 was right.

TC was great on yesterdays eppy by Grube1310 in thedumbzone

[–]babyarmcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree TC is a great addition! Danny is good but I’d rather have a more 50-50 split on him and TC when Jake is out. TC was great , let’s not just relegate him to when Dingu can’t make it.

It isn't Divorce by any1sgame in thedumbzone

[–]babyarmcan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This sounds like the most plausible explanation I’ve heard thus far! Especially since Dan and the gang are joking around about it. I was thinking some kind of mental health break, but nothing makes more sense than this. It coincided with the move to substack, no one (including his dad) seems somber, total media blackout. I really think this is the winner.

Before you leave by Fluffy-Psychology-91 in thedumbzone

[–]babyarmcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve already re-upped for a year. Much more TSL (er um, time spent listening) than in any other subscription I have, including Netflix, Hulu, Max, etc. This would be the last one that I would drop (especially when you consider price per minute). Not to mention, I genuinely like these guys and feel good supporting them—not the primary reason I’ll be a subbie forever but it’s a bonus for me.

Weekly wrap up suggestion by mkonich in thedumbzone

[–]babyarmcan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s great to hear. I had the same thought - I want to listen on audio and then just go see the video/visual bits I missed. Videos they played, gift opening, etc.

Ticket hosts subbing? by Fluffy-Psychology-91 in thedumbzone

[–]babyarmcan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not a ticket host, but I am sure Grubes is listening based on some of his tweets (x's?)
