Since I'm not a 13 year old girl, my threshold for gossip is zero. I do enjoy all of these people's podcasts, including Trash Tuesday, and I've seen all the rumor/innuendo shit involving Schaub and those girls - everything from him trying to get Annie to give him blow jobs after comedy shows to him hooking up with Khalyla. The Internet is a wild and wacky place where literally everything that anyone could possibly think up has been claimed authoritatively somewhere. I believe exactly none of the gossip mill shit. Until people say stuff out in the open using names and dates, it's just fodder for sad people who live their lives on the Internet.
That had nothing to do with Joey throwing shade at Schaub. What he's not fond of is an asshole trying to kill two birds with one stone and insult him and Schaub at the same time. Here's a more accurate representation of Uncle Joey's thoughts, from his initial prejudice to his eventual respect.
Ricky runs rings around everyone on every podcast. He's one of the quickest and funniest dudes out there. But Schaub did well playing with him. The "nicotine helps brains" thing was one of the funniest parts of the podcast and you can see Schaub lean into it and then laugh on the cut. Seriously, this feels like Qanon shit or the pizzagate shit, with people scouring the Internet looking for messages from everyone confirming that everyone on the planet hates Brendan Schaub. Rick is just super quick and super snarky. Do you also think that he hates Esther Povitsky?
He's actively paying them, as we speak. He does the road, he does the small spots, he goes to the markets where it's not just his fans, he does everything that you're supposed to do as a comic, which is why people on the Internet hate him but his peers respect him. Whether you find him funny or not is a separate conversation. To dispute that he's grinding and putting in the work is just sour grapes.
I don't know who Rob Dyrdek is, but dude, D'elia broke down expressing how grateful he was for Schaub and that crew.
And Santino doesn't hate Schaub. He fucking sat in for Callen on TFATK a million times, he had Schaub on Whiskey Ginger.
There isn't enough shit out there on Schaub to satisfy the blood lust of the haters? You guys really have to make shit up and create fictional allies for yourselves out of Schaub's real-life friends in your all-consuming hatred of him?
The Internet is a wacky place, man.
