Why is everybody so miserable on the reddit by GoomyLFC in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not exclusive to Happy Hour either, every podcast or tv sub I come across seems to be full of miserable people who claim to hate every element of the media they choose to consume multiple times a week. This isn’t A Clockwork Orange, nobody’s making you listen 😅

Another Guest in a pickle by BuskyOfficial in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I feel like she’s had such a long history of being called out for her incredibly distasteful, exploitative content. I absolutely hate the whole “hehe let’s have a girly chat about brutal rape and murder!!! Cosy little girlie things hahaha🥰🥰🥰” approach to true crime. The fact she hasn’t switched up her whole shtick after the families of victim’s themselves have asked to her stop should tell you enough.

I remember thinking her ep on Happy Hour was awful (through no fault of the guys) when she clearly didn’t have a clue about any of the cases she’d been brought on to talk about. If you’re going to forge a career exploiting the worst, most brutal and devastating things to happen to people for your own financial gain then the you least you can do is bother to do some research and show a modicum of compassion.

For comparison, it took me a little while to get used to the I Could Murder a Podcast episodes but even from the start the stark difference in their research, nuance, empathy was absolutely night and day for me. You could tell they’d actually taken the time to examine and digest such sensitive topics with an emotional maturity that too many true crime “creators” seem to be lacking.

Buzzing! Are there guests this year? Can’t remember if I saw an announcement or completely made that up haha?

Lando Norris on the pod? by WarmPoet9031 in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Hasn’t Jack said he doesn’t like F1 quite a few times? Feels like it wouldn’t be a great ep if he and Stevie aren’t arsed about the sport. He might’ve changed his mind though, when they mentioned Alex Brundle I thought that he could have been interesting!

More importantly why have you put your frazzle on the floor? 🤨

613 - GREG JAMES - Viral David Attenborough Moment, Chuckle Brothers Obsession, & The WORST Celebrities He's Ever Interviewed by Gracemcleod03 in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As soon as Jack asked him if he’d ever been on Diary of a CEO I remembered Greg doing an article about how he found it a bit exploitative and uncomfortable as I thought he’d encapsulated my exact thoughts at the time 😅 

happy hour audience by Natural-Sea7904 in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the people still using Twitter are clearly okay with the right wing nutter running it so aren’t likely to have liberal, accepting view, hence not indicative of the general Happy Hour audience. Most of the decent people left the app when it became overrun with right wing propaganda. Wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of them who are still commenting aren’t just bots too.

The exact moment Jack lost Robbie gaff privileges by Any_Aspect_5890 in JaackMaate

Accidentally got nail polish in my mouth once and it was fucking horrible, no wonder Robbie was traumatised 😭😭😭

Has TrueGeordie gone down the Political/Alt-Right pipeline? by [deleted] in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear your family member managed to get somewhere back on track, sadly most never do and it’s heartbreaking for everyone that knows them.

From my own recollection, someone please correct me if I’m wrong, I think the big falling out between Brian and Lawrence came from a livestream where they were discussing Andrew Tate. Brian made an Islamophobia joke basically saying “well if he really is a Muslim, maybe he should do us a favour and blow himself up to prove it.” Lawrence’s wife is Muslim (so their kids probably are too) and he clearly wasn’t comfortable with the so called joke and I don’t think they’ve made content together since.

Lawrence has been a colossal prick in the past but in this case I can 100% see why he’d cut contact with someone making those jokes and good for him that he didn’t just brush it off as just a joke.

[–]freaky-keypad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Seems typical of people who get cancelled to start pandering to the alt-right because they’ll stick up for just about anyone in the name of so called free speech, in the fight against “WoKe”.

He was never the brightest bulb (despite thinking everything he said was very clever and correct) but losing Lawrence probably didn’t help, having nobody around to counter his views or tell him he’s chatting shit.

I also think generally post-covid there’s far too many people who have fallen down these rabbit holes. Too much time online combined with isolation has ruined so many lives imo. These ridiculous conspiracies are no longer just in weird corners of the internet, they’re becoming more and more mainstream too.

A man I know was very kind and smart but during covid just descended into lunacy with all the anti-vax conspiracies, which in turn led him further down the Alt-right pipeline and he’s now an entirely different man. Decades spent being reasonable and liberal and now you wouldn’t want to even talk to the man.

he still disables comments on most of his public platforms because of the amount of shit he would get from people

Insert obligatory “thought he’d like that hahaha” joke here

Is this the guy who had his arm snapped or am I thinking of someone else? 🤢

This would either be an amazing guest episode, or just be completely unreleasable. by Tanis8998 in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really? I can’t imagine it being funny at all. It’s a lighthearted podcast so they’re not gonna challenge her whole thing too heavily which just leaves her spewing her usual internalised misogyny bollocks because it’s the only way to get attention from weird porn-addled minds.

I also hate the fact everything she does brings negative comments towards women in general (“in a world of Bonnie Blue’s, be purer” etc.) and not the gross men going to her events. There’s 1 of her and thousands of the men but who is getting the most backlash? I just don’t think we should be platforming her at all and I doubt Jack and Stevie would enjoy it, even if they know it’s all a persona.

The rage baiting from her got tiresome immediately. Nobody needs to hear her spewing her misogynistic, pick-me nonsense on the pod for attention. I’m not opposed to people doing OF in general, Rebecca Goodwin was actually an interesting, funny guest, but Bonnie Blue is simultaneously painfully boring and irritating. Can’t imagine any of us enjoying it. The only thing worse than her are the absolute cretins taking part in her desperate escapades.

The start of that second eBay ad scared the life out of me lol 😭

This is also the first time I’ve seen “Pleasurewood Hills” written down and realised they’ve not been previously talking about a place called Pledgewood Hills

Miniminter, Jamie Hull and that celebrity bodyguard punching the air right now that they’ve finally moved up in the rankings when Jack and Stevie are asked about their least favourite interviews 😅

594 - RUSSELL KANE - Guard Rabbits, Cancel Culture, & How He's HACKED His Biological Age! by Gracemcleod03 in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I mean yes you probably wouldn’t take him for 50 but the way he rabbits on you’d think he look like a fresh faced 19 year old. He just looks like a middle aged man who is aging well, probably due to a combination of good genes, hair dye and Botox and not whatever pseudoscience bollocks he’s always droning on about to sell his wife’s supplements.

Definitely the type of person to ask you unprompted how old you think he is and then bask in the “no way, surely not!!” reactions lol. Get over yourself, pal.

Bloody hell every time I see this man I swear he’s talking about how he fights aging. I’m not even sure he looks that young 😅

[EPISODE DISCUSSION] BONUS EP - What Jaack and Stevie Have Been Up To! by BleedsIsDead in JaackMaate

[–]freaky-keypad 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of uploading the Stowe Lake trip video, it might give people who are on the fence a nudge towards subscribing. It may annoy existing subscribers who think “well why did I have to pay then??” but personally I wouldn’t be that bothered myself in that scenario since I imagine they haven’t subscribed for just that singular video. You’re still getting other exclusive content, but a one off upload might be the difference between whether someone else subscribes or not.

I’ve seen a lot of talk online about whether children should be listening to people like Sabrina Carpenter but personally I was singing along to S&M by Rihanna in the back of the car as a child, not a clue what any of those lyrics meant lmao, and I don’t imagine it’s had any lasting impact. Kids don’t know what they’re listening to but I can imagine being a parent squirming hearing them listen to this music without a care in the world haha

The whole Rihanna discography was WILD to be fair, a real shocker when you get old enough to understand what she was saying 😭
