You don’t think he’s eating off Patreon?
He's probably makes enough to live comfortably off patreon, but is definitely not where he should be at this point in the game.
He should have been doing patreon and looking for sponsors for the free platforms before going with spotify. It's like he's moving in the opposite direction and just now realized he needs a revenue stream, but he's burned so many bridges No one wants to fukk with him.
If he would have came to spotify with a bunch of sponsors backing him like Joe rogan did, he could have gotten what he was looking for. Rory knew this years ago but Joe clowned him on air for trying to read "me undies" ads on the podcast. Joe rogan gladly reads underwear ads on his podcast, but Joe budden couldn't figure out why he didn't get the same check.
