This ignores the entire basis of executive compensation and companies having 401k profit sharing plans. Also in start up companies people are given equity instead of salary. This is just not true. That’s his business model but that is by no means a norm. And they’re not regular 9-5 guys anyway.
Where tf have you heard joe mention 401ks??

1. Joe is NOT contractually obligated to show them shyt. You seem to be the one with the comprehension issues in here. He did that shyt out of GOOD FAITH

2. If i send over a report and you audit me anyway its because you dont trust what i just sent to you, which i will immediately take as disrespect

You can fukk right off at that point

if you’re owed a % of profits you would have to be contractually obligated to see the numbers. How else would you verify that your getting paid what’s due to you

if Joe would’ve W2’d them and gave them a salary then that’s different

You’d rather give a piece to someone ‘managing’ you (who came after it was already successful) than the guy you built it up with, I know enough about you now
Your manager is actively making business moves in your favor

What business moves have rory made in joes Joe's favor??

Please be specific

At the end of the day Joe let selfishness cloud good business and costed him friends, on air talent and credibility.

Once again, the pod is 100% Joe’s. He has every right to that 100%. That does not make it good business to keep all 100%.

Joe seems to be upset about effort level of Rory and Mal. You know what would fix that? Having actual stake in the IP. You don’t think Rory and Mal wouldn’t be busting there ass to make podcast after podcast if they knew, at the end of the day they got 10% of whatever the pod gets sold for? There’s a reason most 9 to 5ers don’t give a fukk. I’ll tell you right now, I could give 2 fukks about EY as a whole as long as my check gets in. He fostered that apathy.

The fact that Rory and Mal sat there for years letting Joe talk about equity and ownership and creative nonsense while pretending to have ownership makes them clowns in my book. Me talking shyt about Joe doesn’t mean I don’t think those 2 aren’t dumb. They should’ve talked vested equity years ago. They fell in love with that check, like many do. By the time they realized the okie doke, it was too late. That’s why I don’t feel sorry for them, I just think Joe is a horrible businessman and a hypocrite

Even worst. Lol. Because 95% of his fans aren’t giving him 25 a month for content they got free last week.

And damn near all the successful Patreons show you how many subscribers they got. And what they make a month.

joe conveniently doesn’t show that shyt. Because nobody is going to pay for it.

Nah, He definitely got a lot of people paying for it....


I still don't see how matches up to what Spotify offered them though.

Complete apples and oranges. It’s the difference between the business of that podcast vs. the business of all Joe’s ventures. Your manager manages you and guides you through diff ventures. This specific manager came years after the podcast took off, and hasn’t played much role at all in its success, other than putting the battery in Joe’s back to turn down tens of millions from Spotify because he thinks he’s the Walt Disney of internet content :snoop:

Joe would rather give it to someone outside of the business (business being the podcast) than one of the key components in the actual business. Rory has been one of the 2-3 most important people in the business of that podcast since it’s inception. For Joe to include Ian as opposed to someone on the actual show, shows that Joe is more concerned w/ the business of Joe Budden than the business success of that specific podcast.

And that’s all coming to a head now. Joe was all too giddy to boast on the podcast how he has a million dollar deal w/ Puff and Revolt and how he’s already rich. I 100% respect that, but it also shows a lot about Joe that he can be so happy about the business of Joe Budden while the business of the podcast is in shambles.

They ain't ready for that comparison in here.

High key, THIS is the shyt jokes need to he made about.

LeBatard kept an archive of ESPN audio, and talked Draft Kings into a pretty decent licensing deal, while making sure all his people are alright.

And the funniest part is the event that kicked all this off was ESPN trying to fire one of his staff without telling him. :mjlol:

I subbed to the $25 for a month to see what it had, and the 10 level seems sufficent. the extras at the 25 weren't worth it at all, since I don't watch the video podcast, and that journey shyt was boring

haha yeah. always was curious why he doesn't show it (beyond maybe being insecure about it)....so much for transparency :heh:

just hate how he does everything as a video, and doesn't even have an audio RSS set up.

I sub to a handful of patreons and they either show what they make a month or how many patreons they have.

He doesn’t show it because the few dumbasses that are paying will realize they paying for some bullshyt nobody else is.

now if these patreon episodes brought something different to the table than the regular podcast I’d feel the different way. But my nikka literally posted the regular podcast, deleted it, then put it on patreon.
