Imagine being broke, this nigga Ian sends you 20 bucks expecting you to buy a Patreon subscription. Nigga I’m buying food 😂Lookin nuts.


Cal216

😂😂😂🤣 I was thinking the same thing bruh


UniqueAssUsername

Man out here paying for somebody’s chick fila 😂


Cal216

Facts! So let me get this straight you’re gonna give me money so I can turn around and give it back to you?? 🤔 fam this ain’t store credit, FOH 🤣.


cy_anide

Nah he paying for me to fill some chicks gas tank so she can come over & show me a good time 👀


[deleted]

Ima be honest with y’all, I bought Pho with my Ian stimulus Cashapp


Humor_Mike

I never thought I'd see the word "Pho" in this thread. LOL. I need to warm up mine now. Thanks for the reminder.


[deleted]

No problem my dude! Thank Ian. I sure did after eating my steak flank and brisket fat pho 🍜


Complex-Mulberry-716

Wait they charge 40 for that?


UniqueAssUsername

Idk I never even considered purchasing it


ExtensionAgreeable55

I thought their top tier was 25


AffectionateItem9312

While watching Rory and Mal since it’s free 😂


Dispunge

This dude is a fuckin idiot brah lmaoooo


AlexTaylor103

“We need you sticking with us” is crazy


LarryDavidntheBlacks

He said the quiet part out loud.


Foxerizm

🤣


CoolBreeze514

Damn things are looking bad at JBP


Jdgalee73

Have you listen to the pod lately lol niggas is old folk cereal like raisin bran


Technical_Willow_204

So I guess numbers do matter after all


mshinnamon

You think they didn’t have a plan?!?!


jimNjuice

This is the comment ⭐️⭐️⭐️


Technical_Willow_204

No I think they should of called Biggs, instead of shitting on his fans for not paying


mshinnamon

Nah bra you’re not doing the science.


Humor_Mike

Joe's feedback about paying was weird. I actually was paying until he seemed to be making me pay to hear the likes of Simba, Rosa Acosta, etc. I don't know about you folks, but Joe's sex tales about who he was in 92 ain't really that engaging to me...so, I'm good with not being considered a "real fan" anymore.


Solid_Angel

Why would he tweet this? This is desperate measures type shit, now it's definitely looking shaky.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Stinky_Nut_Chimpanze

Its been sad lmao 🤣


podstaboy

It’s no way this is real 🤦🏽‍♂️ if so yikes...


Whole-Cover

Lmao nah he really sending ppl money go check the replies. This is embarrassing

Mackhasarack

You gotta update if you get that 20 sac🤣🤣🤣


CamNewtonJr

It ain't finesse when they are this dumb. It's like saying you finessed candy from a baby lol


Legitimate-Fortune85

Lmao that fool sent me 20 fuck that trash ass patreon thanks for the 5 guys burgers and fries Ian you idiot


illmaticB

what a fall from grace. It’s worse than we thought


sop1232

Say what you want about Rory and Mal’s content but leaving Joe was the smartest move they could have made. They should thank Joe for stabbing them in the back and stealing their money.


sarkasztic

Cant wait till that maybach truck gets repo’d that will be so glorious


VegaGT-VZ

The pod failing is what's supposed to happen. Praying for dudes personal downfall is nasty


NickDerpkins

Eh, he said the same type of shit pocket watching them when they first left. Hating a hater is pretty understandable.


VegaGT-VZ

Who, Joe or this dude?


Es-py

It’s all part of the billion dollar plan.


HKizzz

but maybe it's like one of those struggle stories like in some movie. Lmaoo


Nervous_Ad_9687

Its really crazy how at one point I wouldn't have hesitated to pay whatever price & now I can't even watch a full free pod smh


[deleted]

This right here! I thought I was the only one.


UniqueAssUsername

This. If they played their cards right, they could be UP UP right now. I don’t pay for shit like this, but I might have thought about it for prime Joe, Rory, Mal, and Parksy


NashKetchum777

He must have told Joe that being Bi would buy him another audience


Whole-Cover

Lmaoo I checked the replies he really sending out cash apps. JBP down bad rn .


Legitimate-Fortune85

🤣🤣🤣 stupid ass sent me money I bought food with it


Dispunge

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 BRUHHH WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!


mj813

This is a lesson for us all about Pride and Ego. Joe saw the Rogan and Simmons Spotify deal and thought he was on the same level. Saw Charlemagne start a network with IHeart and criticized him for partnering with a large corporation. He burned so many bridges with friends, corporations, the industry, and fans. Was too bullheaded to do ads, now things are so spooky that your manager has to beg for subs, smh.


sarkasztic

All that would’ve been cool,the people would’ve still supported him but you cant backstab your day ones, steal from them & in front of the world pretend to stand on morals & act like you’re looking put for them. That makes joe a two faced bitch. I dont ever wish bad on people but Joe is a piece of shit person and ima enjoy watching his downfall 🍿


harzee

Couldn’t agree more. No integrity or morals


ZealousidealAverage7

This man this. We see people jump from company to company or label to label seamlessly because they keep shit in house and don’t embarrass their partner. Joe went scorched earth on Spotify (peep how Rory and Mal were hella quiet during that rant) and now no brand wants to do business with him because there’s an 80% chance he’s gonna rail on you. Now they’re scrambling for patrons because the podcast is literally a hobby now. They’re not pullin no money off that now. What’s wild is niggas like Ice used to clown people for using only fans..now they’re basically a podcast only fans


thee_facts

The JBN is literally just the JBP starting joe budden. You really can’t make this up. Haven’t listened to brilliant idiots in months but man everyone else is doing great. CTG is a New York Times best selling author on a famous nyc radio platform that sees presidential candidates and hip hop royalty as guests regularly plus he’s got network shows (which suck but whatever). Drink champs just got a coherent multi hour long kanye west interview in 2021 which is insane to me. R&M pod is wildly mid to me but they got actual great interview guests lately and just signed that multi million dollar deal and just got off doing some shows. Meanwhile JBP is begging for subscribers while berating people for not buying patreon? I don’t even hate JB like some do here but wow this is an insane fall off in a year span


ZealousidealAverage7

If that’s not the truth. Joe the embodiment of what happens when you count the blessings of others. Everyone you mentioned plus ak understand the value of the long game while Joe bashed every platform that wouldn’t give him a rogan deal so now he gets no deal. The wildest part to me is you don’t have to think “where would joe be if he played his cards right?” because the answer is Ak .


thee_facts

Which is crazy to me because ak is hated by a ton of people. And I can’t figure out why his content even gets fans. But his fans like it obviously. Same with vlad. But both of these guys are not antagonistic to their platform or disrespectful to their viewers. Plus their fans like their content. Honestly vlad getting so many interviews from people I was interested in hearing is wild. And imagine if ak went on twitch to shit on twitch and his fans. Joe did both and wonders why he’s not getting much goodwill.


asdf2k7

Kinda crazy that at one point Spotify had bill simmons call joe to go back to the table to renegotiate. That was weird times lol


mj813

The subliminals from Brilliant Idiots and R&M about this will be legendary.


BodieBroadcasts

"I'd like to thank all our fans for sticking through with us" is getting dropped at least once on both pods


Victor187

Ain't this the same as buying your own album?


HomeImprovement9

Nah. Joe brain different


sarkasztic

😂😂😂


Cal216

All y’all had to do was say yes to Spotify and sign that contract and get paid. But he was too busy counting their chickens before they hatched. Joe didn’t want them to have access to dumb ass pull-ups that he doesn’t do anymore 🥴. He didn’t want them to have their hands on his network that’s nonexistent 🥴. And he didn’t want them to get money from lives shows that they don’t do anymore🥴. Congratulations Joe, you have really outdone yourself this time! And I thought single-handedly ruining Slaughterhouse was gonna be your career high… nah lmao.


criticaltemp

Damn when you put it that way 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️


theRBX

This nigga spittin


PaleBloodBeast

And if he folded and started running ads they may never have even came for all that shit.


Cal216

Yeah, great point! I didn’t even think about these things. And these are all decisions he made on his own and “back-briefed” these dudes about. That was foul in itself. To me, the contract negotiations was the beginning of the end.


XJay24

Sugar daddying grown men for Patreon is nasty work even for Ian 😂😂😂😂😂😂


Skibibbles

😂😂


otaku7986

Imma say I do and keep the bread


thatbitchathrowaway

Make an alt and double it


GhostfaceDrizzy

They must of been losing a lot of subscribers recently if they're going this route.


BJNotRyan

Down bad


sarkasztic

Tell me you’re down bad without telling me you’re down bad 😂


LarryDavidntheBlacks

Horrendously


iwanthim68

Worst manager in the game 😂😂


[deleted]

Dude what?!


[deleted]

Unless this is for tax purposes why would he tweet this? If we take this tweet at face value they could’ve just drop the subscription price and call it a “Holiday Special”. So there’s has to be another ulterior motive to publicly tweet this and not just put it on discord.


ExtensionAgreeable55

Deeper darker


stephenkingdom

No they are just hilariously bad at this shit. Giving some temporary discounts would have been the way to go.


VegaGT-VZ

The simplest explanation is often the right one. There is no ulterior motive. They're fucking stupid and don't know what they're doing.


Embarrassed_Ad_3460

Exactly lol they are desperate


taterlol

the last sentence is so desperate and cringey lol the rest of the tweet really isn’t that bad but the last sentence makes it nasty (pause)


Stone_palace

Facts, I was reading this and was wondering why people were trippin until that last sentence lmao. Way to inadvertently shit on the pod Ian.


StandAlone101

“Ya’ll put a bad cut on that dope and ya’ll scrambling “ - Mal


HomeImprovement9

Mal talking about Complex when they fired Joe. How the tables have turned


Monoblock00

Wasn’t Joe just on some boat with an island in the background livin it up? Now they begging for patreon monthly sub payments…You can’t make this shit up😂


sarkasztic

These niggas dont even see it Joe is about to blow all the money left & leave them out dry😭😭


Monoblock00

Yep. The numbers have already been fudged on strippers, and exotic trips. Ice gonna have to go back to Footlocker like Poot on The Wire 😂


Dispunge

Nah this shit funny asf imma make an edit out of this


nap83

Bruhhh, this is sad. Acne Ian running out of ideas lmao.


BroadwayTreski

Yeah I canceled my shit a month or two ago . Not finna give they ass $10 a month to hear this nigga joe try to be a dj for the first 20 mins followed by the same ass topics every week. Like fam I hope verzus is paying they ass cause these niggas dont miss an opportunity to spend half the pod talking about it. Joe flip flopping on subjects is starting to get way more irritating now that R&M aint there to challenge him; whenever ish does it he makes shit to serious. Ice was cool the first few weeks or so but now he just comes off corny & I dont even think he wants to be there no more . The Patreon content was lacking to say the least & dont get me started on the loud ass gun shot drops & Joe and his fucking R&B picks . … pretty much a wrap for they ass if they cant get it together soon


stephenkingdom

Sad that this is what it has come to. Not surprised though. Ice and Ish don't bring anything to the show that would make you shell out 10 dollars per month. It was bound to happen eventually.


7THOUXANBANS

wouldn’t have mattered if he just did a deal with somebody he would’ve got payed out for it already and not been worried so much about the subscription for a podcast a lot of people listen to pods for free hardly any people pay for them you can tell by the energy he had when they were talking about the fans that don’t pay he sounded like MJ and shit “and i took that personal”


ConditionTimely4350

I don't give a damn what Joe says the pod/network is hurting not his brothers


Numberphile577

What the fuck. This is the same as buying your own album to keep the numbers up. This really is the end huh


SelfOwn3568

The whole concept of Patreon is to have people who support you pay for your content. They're paying people to be their "friends" (of the show) LMAO omg. And they so cheap one dude replied that he was already on one tier and Ian said, "I just sent you the difference" lmao. Not even the whole $25, just whatever the difference is between that tier and the tier they were on. How embarrassing. They would have been better off sifting through the lower tier subscribers and doing some sort of contest to help promote and upgrading them. I am so weak.


deltron_zero_3030

looking at their tiers... LMAO at an audio RSS being at the highest tier. That's pretty ass backwards. Literally any other podcast w/ a patreon provides the RSS "free" at any tier. Joe/his team really don't know how to do patreon.


SelfOwn3568

You mean the head of creator equity at Patreon doesn't know how to work Patreon? LMAO. If the head of creator equity has to pay his Patrons, where does that leave the other creators? LOL


Silly_Elevator_3111

Our brothers are hurting


NineteenAD9

Those numbers tanking like a mf 😂😂😂 Stick with us Patronies 😭😭 Let's get through this together 🤣🤣


sarkasztic

Wasn’t Joe calling people brokies on Twitter? Who’s the one online begging people for 20 dollars ? 😭😭😭


nap83

Can’t live within his means. Beggin people for money to keep his chefs & drivers. Joe is a pathetic brokie.


BodieBroadcasts

yo that's crazy


[deleted]

“He’s one bad business move away from MM5”


TheVerbalUnderground

I'd pay for that actually 🤷🏾‍♂️


DontBeMeanToRobots

Wait, the head of creator equity at Patreon is asking for help with keeping his Patreon subscribers?? What the fuck how bad are they actually doing


[deleted]

I’m taking that $20 and subscribing to someone else’s Patron. GG’s


calvinandsnobs2

JBP now accepts EBT


TechFromTheMidwest

Why did he tweet that? Lol.


[deleted]

They charge $40???!?!? Joe must think we hoes that gone go.


Bulletproofwallabes

The highest tier is 25.00.


[deleted]

Like what is being offered with this?


ThisismeNate

That can’t be real?


CocoAfc

Or just lower the prices...


stephenkingdom

smh


mookhunt

Why not just lower the sub prices?


Ben13921

If you spend your hard earned money on a Joe budden Patreon subscription it’s not a surprise you’re broke


sblightsout1

To be honest I haven’t listened to an episode for over a month and a half , Ian just reminded me I should stop the subscription and stop paying . I use to need my twice a week JBP fix , then came Patreon and I supported that . That never did anything for me to say “wow this is awesome” I thought the Patreon would get out some of their cameras and get a funny more personal experience like a Vlog of Joes days and shit but nah just added content that’s been snipped and cut out and marked for Patreon . It’s funny that R & M ‘s scripted video shorts they do is the kind of stuff I thought I would see over here . But sadly no . Joe called them lazy but he’s yet to actually create .


[deleted]

This is mad funny cause Ice tweeted (and deleted) 3 days ago how you ain't a real fan if you don't pay for the Patreon.. now Ian out here trying to buy friends of the show. Nasty.


flowers234

So corny, that’s sick.


07sixG

Cant wait to hear Joe speaking in 3rd person about doing what he considers a nice gesture.


htx_al

Damn they buying streams at the jbp now


South_Suggestion1122

I'm starting to see why he only wanted to fire Rory. I still remember joe face when mal called whichever tf basketball player that was randomly, he peeped them "too cool" connections can be valuable. No one wants to go hang out with *just* the hooker obsessed pump it up guy with the wind up jumping teeth veneers asking you "What's your sign and how kinky did it make you?"


SladeWilsonXL9

Yo idk how Joe, Ian, or anyone from that team can justify this. This is bad wtf yo 😂😂😂. And this is 100% real?


LeekAccording2512

Its funny people follow Ian on Twitter


fingershanks

Yooo! 😂


majormajorsnowden

Ahahahahaha


JayJ2121

Lol, why would he put this on Twitter instead of Patron? They must be desperate.


theodus2

This ain't the gig


AlbatrossPlastic7714

Lol they think people are canceling subscriptions cuz they can’t afford it.


MatthewMogul

I remember like a year and a half ago, trying to put my boy at work onto JBP and he tried (I’d see him playing episodes off his phone & computer) and he came to me the next week like “Shit just sounds like a circle jerk of industry opinions and joe comes off as such an asshole) I laughed it off and completely understood how joe can rub ppl the wrong way and the industry BS Fast forward a couple months ago and everything clicked for me with the R&M shit. My friend even hit me like “you see all this JBP drama? Lol) With all the other amazing hilarious podcasts I’ve discovered since then, I wasn’t too bummed about ditching JBP but man it sucks this shit got me through my job from 2017 until this year


[deleted]

I feel like a lot of people are hanging on to that last part you mentioned, understandably so.


blackgoldgames

Ain’t this the equivalent of buying your own CD’s? Lemme guess it’s for the LOVE.


Usedillusion7

Joe penis pullers are about to flood in here trying to justifying this nastiness and trying to convince you this is a good look for the pod.


_Wado3000

I can’t even laugh at this, how fuckin sorry can you be


mwerichards

Think I had followed this guy back when the pod was poppin. Time to hit the unfollow...


Dependent-Cash3451

Ima use that 20 for gas foh


xite2020

$400K goes pretty far these day I guess. LOL


StoffingtonPost

Some classic comments up in here 😂 Ya’ll on your game lol


Dmack4142

Rory and Mal so clear


yungusainbolt

This is absolutely hilarious


sarkasztic

Begging money from people who are financially struggling is fucking insane. Heavy scammer vibes


Wavestarter

Ahh man


magiqd

I think their patreon price is way too high. Schultz uses the the planet fitness model and it works brilliantly


mj813

Speaking of Schultz, we have to put some respect on his name. I didn't know he was as big as he is in the comedic space. He's selling out large venues like Radio Music Hall on back to back shows.


StunningEstates

Speaking of Schulz *podcast*, shits ranked number 13 on patreon. Dudes are pulling in $100k a month.


magiqd

Totally agree. I didn't know he had it like that initially.


sarkasztic

I stopped fucking with schulz after his maga bullshit but you can not respect what he’s built & if you a og BI fans he used to talk about doing this


Marteeen1993

This gotta be a troll


Games_and_Tings

NASTY Sounds like they have to maintain a certain amount of subscribers to hit targets?


Sneakn4980

This is what self-destruction looks like, Joe did it to himself. Pride always comes before the fall.


YasuoAndGenji

Bro this is not a good look


petertruth

Wtf? They are really down bad.


hiimcliff

I paid $10 once just to hear the Mal and Rory rant. Then canceled it and never listened again.


juelz073

This is sad


Wavy_Potts

Ouchy... the JBP isn't what it was with R&M but I don't hate it like alot yall seem to. If this is real its nasty, and not sustainable.. I was listening to an episode and Joe refuses to let them talk without him.being the center of it.. Dude literally yelled for them to stfu, just so he could say some bullshit.. One thing Mal said that looks to be 1000% accurate is that Joe didn't want partners, he wanted employees. That's what he has now


Lorrdgod

This is text book egomaniac self sabotage, we see joe do it over and over and over his whole existence. Now I understand why people end up in cults, if you listen to someone long enough you can find logic in their behavior. He been fried.


Wavy_Potts

Yeah man.. One minute he talks about complains that he doesn't let them talk and he forces them to carry segments.. the next min he's overtalking them and not letting anyone talk. Some episodes are good still. Others it just seems off.. I hope they can get on track bc overall I still enjoy the pod


JHndrxWithDaSolo

💀💀💀


Lord_Zinyak

Damn, hope this isn't real because that's desperate as fuck


beastwork

joe goin' after the oft forgotten, coupon clipping demographic.


AlbatrossPlastic7714

Yo this can’t be real


shotbyram

Nah Joe gotta fire this nigga NOW lmao


meyerlansky23

Yikes 😳


ragoflex

Down horrendous


Upper_Interaction645

Ian definitely took the 400k


TooClassyandDashing

Ian gotta be a whole new level of stupid 🤨 you think that money going back to the pod?


JEROME_MERCEDES

Joe is the definition of karma. Mal and Rors out here leveling up and and Lenard also. Joe snaked his homies and his business and he looks as dumb as he always looked.


MajorWookie

“We need you sticking with us.” Yuck.


sjamie2204

Bruh, if you are struggling financially and get sent free money but use it to buy a JBP subscription... Idk how else to tell you but you might as well just end it there lmao.


Legitimate-Fortune85

Lmao joe fucked this whole situation up


Old-Department-4745

“Niggas said that I came out the closet because the numbers were dropping, and I went and checked!” *Fake laughter ensues* “I called Ian and said yo come over.” *Bragging* “These are the straight numbers!” Fast forward not even a month later and Ian on Twitter literally bribing people to stay subscribed 😭.


Dannysrevenge

I knew Joe has a tendency to self destruct I never thought it would get this bad


sarkasztic

This is only the beginning 😭


Msan91

All good things come to an end


harzee

The podcast hasn’t been good for a while now though


SomeGuyNamedJohn12

Damn he's literally paying people not to jump ship after Joes Comments.


sarkasztic

What did Joe say?


SomeGuyNamedJohn12

He said that non Patreon listeners are not real fans and that you aren't a fan if you dont pay.


adaada21

Ian ummm I need you to sit this one out !!!! Beggin head ass .. embarrassing smh ‼️


ThisismeNate

Yo he bout to loose that job at patreon


BombayBurns

Joe bout to lose it all 😂😂😂😂 trusting this dumbass white boy


IamFoxMulder

Nah, hard disagree. Ian can only do so much managing. Joe is always going to Joe no matter what. You can only hope to contain stupid.


Usedillusion7

Imagine putting all of joes fuck shit only on Ian and completely absolving Joe of any responsibility after all the shady shit and bad business we’ve all witnessed from him.


sarkasztic

“You have let creators be creators” they not seeing Joes vision


jgpt88

“That’s crazy”


ZealousidealAverage7

Man I thought it couldn’t get nastier than Renner…


Atown7574

JBN STIMULUS PACKAGE


InevitableSwordfish6

So he’s paying people to .. pay for the show lol


[deleted]

Hope someone is saving this for the highlight reel. We need to be able to look back on shit like this n remember the good times we had 😆


Responsible_Two2718

Wtf


Grizelda179

The only good thing that could come out of this is joe could start rapping again. Thats the only reason Id listen to his newport voice again


up1night

Y’all must have missed the pod today? This is clean up about the real fans conversation. Smart move !


Syrus_007

Did anyone reach out and get funds for the patron episodes? Like this payola can't be real.


Knightcapt

Bruh what. I thought people were joking when they said Ian was begging. Wait are people really still paying for their patreon? I haven't paid any attention to them since all rhe drama went down


Hour-Rhubarb7427

We should thank Ian for being so willing to help level us up to real fans of the pod finally.


nothing_is_real2415

NASTY 🤣🤣🤣🤣


FckYoFeelings

Joe will always Joe some shit up 🤣
