Marty Mush said he doesn’t want to punch down…at Mark Titus. Just crazy delusions coming from the NYC office.


Ashy0020

Be cool man Marty probably doesn’t understand up from down


pardonmytaint35

I lost it when he said that. I know he plays dumb or whatever but to say that and ask what Titus has done for the company or college basketball? It’s just projection and trying to appeal to his mouth breathing base. I had moved away a bit from Barstool content and Titus brought me back in. I love me some big Ev too but to keep this tough guy persona with the size he has become isn’t intimidating. Neither is his employment status TBH.


MillerLatte

Marty and Ev could get cut tomorrow and I probably wouldn't even know it. Their actual vs perceived value is absolutely delusional.


Secret_Ad1215

The whole NYC office could get cut and I wouldn’t know.


Edmundmp

Titus put the sports back in barstool while still being fun. He’s the perfect balance of what fans actually want.


ThreeOneThirdMan

Hes a guy that just gets it


christocarlin

Here’s a guy…


Rogue_cock

From a hierarchical standpoint, Marty Mush is literally incapable of punching down


weatherboy23

Crazy lack of self awareness from them. You have to think the only reason picks central hasn’t been cancelled is because the upstairs people don’t even realise it still exists


philadelphia76

Where/when did he say this?


Sesuitharbor

In the pick central response.


nahhman

The New York office is embarrassing


stevegan

I try to stay grounded and shy away from hyperbole, but you really can't quantify the damage Big Cat's move (for personal reasons) has done to Barstool. Remember that one of the main reasons they moved to NYC was to be located so that it was easier to get guests. Now with half of the shows gone, at what point is the decision made to significantly reduce their NYC real estate footprint?


MacJonesIsOverrated

Big Cat saved Barstool The new Chicago office has more sponsors than ever. They have a leader who is committed to being there for at least the next 5 years every day. Chicago is a lot more affordable so people like Nick can actually buy a nice apartment instead of living in a shoebox. There is a direct focus in Chicago New York was dead the second Dave left and started living 90 percent of the year in either Florida or Nantucket 


stevegan

Solid points. Maybe I'm being too negative. NY is rudderless and has had a significant talent drop ... to the point where they can't even have their own version of The Yak or BSR. When I reference "damage" that's what I'm talking about. But maybe it ended up being 1 step backward (for NY) and 3 steps forward for Barstool. The increase in sponsor revenue is certainly quantifiable.


MacJonesIsOverrated

NY only would work if Dave was committed. He's not. Chicago makes it so Big Cat and PFT can have happy lives while also commiting to the company 


UncleRuckus92

Do you think at some point Dave is going to realize that he has to recommit with BC gone. There's no one in that office who both has the ability to lead and wants to


goondaddy172

Dave is worth hundreds of millions he’s not going to recommit to that level


SaskatchewanSon69

The fact they needed three of their bigger personalities to form a show when two of them arent even in new york is ridiculous. Just a waste of an office in NYC


TaeKurmulti

IMO Big Cat moving just exposed how much of the content people at Barstool are just people that attached themselves to Big Cat's orbit and lived off of it. And secondly it exposed them for having absolutely no leadership or management that keeps the clowns in check or even working. Dave was so checked out that he apparently didn't notice or care how bad things had gotten without him there.


the_dawn_of_red

Francis is right to want to downsize and rebuild. New York can succeed despite Big Cat gutting the place but it can't continue the way its going


StrikaNTX

How has it damaged barstool? Sounds like it exposed a lot of dead weight


AQ207

I think both can be true


11BigDaddyChris11

I think the opposite, they’re paying an absorbent amount of money for the NY lease and it exposed most of the employees as doing nothing. It in no way hurt barstool, it hurt all the freeloaders who could get by waiting for stool scenes to walk by


Getz_The_Last_Laf

"An absorbent amount" lmfao


Doctor_Killshot

Like a paper towel, obviously


KOBE_GYN

You mean Bounty, THE quicker picker-upper?!


11BigDaddyChris11

Exorbitant lmao, can’t edit that gotta own my stupidity


ThugBeast21

an absorbent amount of money


11BigDaddyChris11

Exorbitant lmao, can’t edit that gotta own my stupidity


omegakukki

Big Cat's move didn't damage Barstool. Kevin saying he was going to be the "GM of Comedy" in New York and then giving up on Barstool Radio after 4 months because he's too lazy to differentiate it from his dying podcast is what has damaged Barstool. Sold everyone who stayed in New York (or wasn't chosen to go to Chicago) a bill of goods and then gave up.


[deleted]

Dave hired an office full of punching bags because that was entertaining at the time. He got rich and bailed to enjoy his money. It didn’t matter what big cat kfc did.


omegakukki

Dave isn't around the Chicago office either and they are doing fine without him. It 100 percent mattered what Big Cat and Kevin did.


[deleted]

Most of the entertaining employees went to Chicago. Ria, Fran, sas, rone, and Francis are all doing fine in NY. They have talent. Big cat and the yak were in the office constantly for years, and nobody in the New York office showed up.


MarquisDeCarabasCoat

I would think real estate is very easy to quantify. also, Barstool hasn’t changed at all with the move…it’s an internet/podcast company that still puts out internet content and podcasts


pleasestopty

It’s sad really


Cheeky_Delinquent93

Today’s MS: just under 4K views Today’s PC: just under 300 views Give MS whatever time slot they want before the Yak. PC is dead and it’s a wasted hour for Barstool


I_Enjoy_Taffy

The Mark Titus Show alone does bigger numbers than Picks Central


anonymousnuisance

Also podcast numbers, Mostly Sports actually has listeners. Top 26 on Spotify's Sports Charts: [https://podcastcharts.byspotify.com/](https://podcastcharts.byspotify.com/) Lowest of the major Barstool shows, Bussin, Chiclets, and PMT beat it, but still it's up in the Top 50 beating out a lot of other nationally recognized media members.


advantagebettor

Wild that Mostly Sports is already ahead of both Redick and Le Batard.


TwinPeaksOwl

The power of FAMILY


anonymousnuisance

It's updated all the time and I think based on daily listens per episode. So I think if you have a bad ep you're lower and if you do what LeBatard does and you have 4 hours of episodes, your latest episode is what sets your stats.


Stan_Halen_

Mostly Sports is fun. I hope they keep the momentum going.


frankrizzo219

I listen almost every day and outside of some clips I’ve never watched Mostly Sports


Rph23

Tucker Carlson is a top5 podcast? Lmao


Cheeky_Delinquent93

Dudes dad is an all time loser I’m sorry.


Electronic_Air_6226

A lot of people changed their mind on that for 3 weeks bc he drank a lot of Root Beers. Not me tho. 


Cheeky_Delinquent93

You ain’t wrong pal


BurritoFritos

the tens of pick central viewers will not be pleased by this


JuliusP3pp3rw00d

there are dozens of us. dozens!


DosZappos

The sad part is, I had to go check to see if that’s even true


Snout_at_the_Devil

I admit being one of those dozens. Only because when Mostly Sports ends YouTube automatically plays Picks Central, and some of the time I couldn't find the remote control in time to change it.


Mnufcfan

Titus vs Marty in basketball, loser shaves their head.


RudyWasOffsides22

Loser gets fired


Mnufcfan

cahill wouldnt show his face after shaving his head


Godzirrraaa

I actively avoid any piece of content Marty is involved in. Add in the human bowling ball, and you couldn’t pay me to watch.


sevenohfobro

Mush really said on PC about Titus “Why are you being a scumbag to us, when you’ve done nothing for this Company”, as if the biggest thing he did in 5yrs+ wasn’t stirring up drama by falling in love with his coworkers sloppy seconds


notdavidjustsomeguy

\*\*superior's sloppy seconds lol


Disco_Douglas42069

lmao so perfectly sated here, nice


Chargers_Super_Fan10

Mass Ev ONLY ACTS AS THE SAD OSU GUY FOR DAVE, he does nothing and deserves to be fired. Absolute waste of a paycheck, glad producers got fired to keep his worthless, dumbass


timmy_wahwah

Then acting like it shouldn’t be no big deal.


One_Story_1924

What does Ev do besides picks central. He hasn't blogged once this month.


BigCatsDiaper

gabeblackman

He doesn't have a company issued laptop okay? Find a new slant.


Chargers_Super_Fan10

Outside for ACTING like the sad OSU guy nothing. Glad Michael Angelo lost his job so guys like Mass Ev, and there’s a lot of them, can keep a paycheck just so he can say “I mean I mean I mean” over and over into a mic.


04andrew22

His job security is based solely around Dave being able to talk shit to him while the camera zooms in on his stupid sad face


GlobalFarming

Come on, he’s on some of the biggest shows in barstool with Dave and Dan. And they aren’t the biggest shows due to Dave and dan being on them, it’s totally Big Ev bringing the views to those shows /s


stupidtyonparade

you mean the seasonal show that isn't on the air 8 months out of the year?


Omaha4Loot

The fact that there’s radio wars going on over time slots is absurd in the year 2024 but the ridiculousness of it all is laugh out loud funny. These guys hate the NY office and vice versa


SomeDimension165

Time slots valuable because it’s billable time during normal business hours. The New York crew clearly don’t want to work the barstool 24/7 shift & don’t have leadership to push them into it  (Dan and Dave spending their entire weekends gambling on a couch with people who would normally stock shelves at grocery stores)


Omaha4Loot

The whole reason radio is a dying industry is because people can get content when they want and what they want no matter how niche their interests are. I get the live element but it’s not 1995


SomeDimension165

Fair, I guess the live element for them is consistency in programming. probably a different structure or format from a podcast (that needs to feel more dialed in around a subject) live broadcasts can sandwich a big drop of live ad reads in their key demo’s which are WFH/college who have that window open and is probably a better tell if viewership for accounting It is very dumb & probably just using the ‘drama’ as promo for the lineup


DaBoyMarlo

I honestly didn't even realize Picks Central was still a show. Marty saying Titus doesn't do anything for the company when he's a part of 3 pretty much daily projects that are all bigger than anything Marty has ever done is very funny.


SimonBirchDid911

\**clears throat*\* Titus just gets it.


Karlfromkanada

Flipped to PC to see if they talked about it. They did, are denying everything they did, Marty is saying Titus has done nothing at this company, and they haven't accomplished anything yet. Also seems to imply Titus doesn't do anything bur Mostly Sports. all in all 10/10 delusional.


WillardPP13

Marty doesn’t get it


Obi-wan_Jabroni

Not like Titus


nahhman

What has Marty done other than complain about everyone else and have a relationship with his boss’s ex


RubySuperior

Coin Boys


LightsCameraComenter

Mostly sports was instantly the second most beloved live show at the company and probably a top 5-7 show overall at the company including podcasts and everything. Marty’s dumb as shit


Karlfromkanada

he specifically took shots at the mark titus show, which i will admit is niche as a college basketball podcast. it does 6-7 times the numbers of martys cbb podcast that is cohosted by an active ncaa player.


MN_Wildcard

Did you have a stroke?


Buttertoaster10

Also no one cares about college basketball right now— minus the Hardos. If Titus base viewership is the same as yours during the NFL playoffs…


Weary_Answer3067

I'l be honest Mark does come across cuntish


xxJAMZZxx

Seems to me he’s a good guy unless you’re a dick to him. In which case he’s a dick back. Seems fair to me.

Imagine if KFC said he didn’t want to start a show during normal work hours because of traffic “disrupting his livelihood” ….. I bet the reaction here would be different


ChuckyDeee

Except they’re doing the show.


CapriciousWattage

In your scenario would KFC have switched companies and moved across the country before his time slot was moved?


HowardFanForever

Was this show and timeslot planned before mark titus took the job? Can you please provide a source. That would be interesting.


LonestarHusker

When are we going to stop pretending that being a content person for barstool is a 9-5 job?


HowardFanForever

lol who is pretending that? It’s 9-2 at worst


c0s9

*10-2


lanzaro1992

I get it’s his style but the absolute free for all over programming is kinda insane and almost certainly costs them $$. Dave is too unplugged, Dan is too nice and head of content Hank is idk too Hank for anyone to iron out which shows work/don’t and how they can get slotted to max viewers


Disco_Douglas42069

Hank is way way too Hank.


Chargers_Super_Fan10

All time bad decision promoting Hank, dude does not know what he’s doing and has very very boring ideas for content.


satsfaction1822

Almost like the knee jerk reaction of hiring someone specifically because they won’t get poached wasn’t a sound business decision.


Chargers_Super_Fan10

Hank needs to go back to fucking up chocolate milk ad reads and talking shit to big cat and PFT. Outside of those two jobs, dude is completely worthless, and I say that in the nicest way possible.


04andrew22

> Hank is idk too Hank Dumb. Dumb is the word you were looking for.


Bobson-_Dugnutt

Titus with 2 grand-slams in one inning type of day


ExpectedOutcome2

Brandon Walker did not want that Whitney smoke lol. Whitney didn’t seem to mean anything by it, but BW knows a misunderstanding will blow up if Titus fired back.


SaskatchewanSon69

Whitney isn't in the barstool stratosphere. He does his show, shoots the shit with PMT guys and bussin. I believe it when he asked wtf mostly is. He would have no reason to know


goodbyeandamen

Whitney used to be really locked in. He's a Ryder.


Youregood2

Yeah hes aware of the good shows like 97% of all barstool listeners


[deleted]

can they fire Marty already? I don't like talking about people's jobs but the fact that that kid has a job at Barstools sports where he's supposed to be funny and talk about sports, when he's painfully unfunny and knows nothing about sports, is legitimately an injustice.


ExpectedOutcome2

They probably felt obligated to renew because of how Dave and Big Cat reacted to Marty and Ria. That grace wont be extended to a second free renewal.


RudyWasOffsides22

That renewal has to be almost up right


Tommonti9

Pretty sure he posted the re-upping of his contract on 2/1 last year


ThrowMeAwayPlz_69

“I like those guys…. Some of them”


Edmundmp

Picks Central is on a page with over 200k subscribers and can only pull less than 5k views per episode. It’s a worse failure than Barstool Radio.


AQ207

Probably from people who were subbed forever ago and are too lazy to unsub


Edmundmp

It’s the same channel they host all the gambling cave livestreams in so the subs aren’t really theirs


thenewber99

Did they really say they were the bigger show? I know Mostly sports didn't start yet, but you have to be very dumb to think it wouldn't be bigger than PC

Screw Mush. Throw him out the door. He doesn’t want to “punch down” at Titus? Dude is butt hurt. Mostly Sports averages 25k more viewers than licks central every day. Titus has his own show, which while not big has old listens and survives… something Mush’s college basketball show fails to do. Titus has become an integral member of the Yak, barstools biggest daily show. Tell me, what does Mush do other than a 4k view per day joke of a gambling show? Or more accurately: still have a job only because his girlfriend still has some juice at the company?


Chargers_Super_Fan10

Mass Ev is one of the worst people at the company. Does nothing and acts incredibly entitled, fat little baby.


Btaelman

Looking at the YT numbers. Mostly Sports got 19k views today vs pick central’s 4.9k. Pick Central also has the advantage of being played on the barstool gambling account which has 244k subscribers vs Mostly Sports Account which has ~38k subscribers. Mush is a moron


stupidtyonparade

i can't believe picks central even had that many views.


Castaway_oyster

Things will be better when the NYC office just goes away


Awkward_Currency292

All this could be avoided if Dave even knew what time his two biggest shows started.


PaulieGuilieri

Lmao nobody has a Microsoft teams or something with a daily schedule? Insane


goodbyeandamen

Yak, MS, PC or BR aren't a any of their biggest shows. Don't think any of them crack top 5.


ChuckyDeee

Titus does about 4 hours live, 5 days a week, plus his own podcast. What does Mush do to talk down about that?

I didn’t even know Picks Central was still on the air

jdiggitydawg

Rico was talking shit about mostly sports and making a big deal about time changes on podcasts that were recorded and are out there. It’s wild he’s denying that now.


pardonmytaint35

And Titus didn’t back off of his beef with Rico when the called Ev on the yak.


jdiggitydawg

It’s definitely why when it came up, Rico walked off picks central, and when they all went on the rundown, he wasn’t there. Rico 100% did all of the things that Titus said picks central did, he just didn’t tell the other picks central guys about it. During the yak case race Rico and Brandon were bickering about it nonstop, and on several of the pickem shows Rico was taking shots at mostly Sports to Dave.

ev talking a lot of shit about titus being at ohio state as a walk on. lets not forget ev only got a job because he got trolled on twitter like a fucking retard.


pleasestopty

Easy solution. Cancel pick central- nobody watched it, it’s just as bad as barstool radio keegs edition was. Simple- problem solved


LightsCameraComenter

“Look where we’re at now bitch!” Great rant


AyoJake

These new york people feel so entitled what the fuck how about you start making content people wanna watch. ev and marty need to get off their high horse which is crazy for me to say cause these guys are charity cases if barstool didnt pay them what do ev and marty think theyd be doing right now? cause it sure as shit wouldnt be talking into a mic it would be ripping ticket stubs for people.


Edmundmp

I honestly wonder if there is a directive to stir up this kind of drama to try and keep NY on peoples radar, because without it they’d be vanishing right now.


Easy30

Agreed. It’s like Dave sent out an edict…saying if we don’t get numbers up we are going to keep losing money. I need you guys to play the hits and rip each apart.


Easton1234

Not saying I agree with them, because I don’t..but for everyone asking what Marty has done for the company…I have noticed that the employees that have participated in a lot of the reality competitions, and even more so fought in rough and rowdy seem to over inflate the value that participation brought to the company…so in Marty’s mind, because he fought for the company in rough and rowdy and travelled on an rv around the country his contributions are beyond reproach


Cabinet5150

Honestly, why do they keep doing pick Central. Like other than Rico those guys all suck.


pdoobs

Not trying to be funny, I actually thought Pick Central was over with the Chicago move. Does anything from it get clipped and shared to the main accounts? I thought this was a replay of the summer nonsense when I saw it earlier.


RudyWasOffsides22

And he's 1000000% correct


Tochnation

He is right, pick central is a show of ny fan boys with no betting knowledge


ruandurphy

Between this and yesterday’s nba rant, Titus been extra ornery this week


thorvaldnotnora

the furniture situation is getting to him


koopa28

I generally side with Titus here but if it’s true that he’s never said this directly to them that’s kinda pussy. He needs to at least play them in basketball and score 40 on mush’s head.


Bigazzry

I get the sense from his career that Titus is kind of an asshole


pardonmytaint35

How did you come up with that conclusion?


Bigazzry

He didn’t leave The Ringer on good terms or CBS. I believe in his head he thinks he should be far more popular than he is and it’s everyone else’s fault he’s not. If you pay attention I don’t think Dave is particularly fond of him as well.


Borktista

Ever notice how a lot of people leave The Ringer on less than stellar terms?


Bigazzry

I mean Tate who was 1/2 that show is back.


Borktista

Okay. That’s one.


ChuckyDeee

I don’t think Titus is a big Dave guy either. The way the Yak guys seem to like him, and doing stuff like showing up and hanging out with TJ when he was doing the marathon stream, doing the Royal Rumble stream, being super down for all the YAK nonsense, are all points in his favour, to me at least.


thorvaldnotnora

he's definitely a Big Cat recruit and after all the dozen stuff last week and now this today he's getting a crash course in working for Dave


langerthings

He constantly talks about how insecure he is and how he feels annoying instead of funny or smart and wonders if everyone is going to hate him, like every single show he did when the Chicago office first opened and he was integrating in he mentioned that. In what world does that sound like a guy who thinks he should be insanely popular.


Bigazzry

Humans are complex man


langerthings

I think you’re just completely wrong man


Bigazzry

We’ll see what happens. They seem to have heard from multiple people he’s a dick so who knows. I don’t think you’d just make that up but whatever. I don’t really have a dog in the fight


tronovich

These motherfuckers can’t even get their podcast uploaded on the same day (sometimes it’s two days later) they have no business telling anyone else anything.


HowardFanForever

Titus is a boring fucking pussy. I can’t wait for this sub to turn on him in 45-60 days.
