It's August. Podcasts?

I am convinced that his target date was a lie, something to tell his remaining fans to get them thinking "Summer! He'll be back!"
He has shown no signs of even starting production, mentioning his "lack of time". Yet Chris has plenty of time to listen to podcasts.

Yeah, seemingly out of nowhere, Chris brought up "nerdy podcasts" on his Facebook page. Crying that they all suck and he wants recommendations and is considering starting his own.
I have questions. Which ones are you listening to? What are the problems? What would your own podcast even be about? You know nothing about current events in gaming so that's out of the question. Would it just be a repeat of the Irate Gamer blog? "Alright, I found these Star Wars salt and pepper shakers shaped like C-3PO and R2-D2. They look so life-like and so super cool. I can flavor my food with the force!"

So his fans gave him some. One brought up Pat "The NES Punk" Contri and Ian Ferguson's podcast, but it devolved into "Pat sucks" posts. Though the shocking thing is several fans claiming they want a Ronnie the Skeleton podcast. How would that even work? 2-3 hours of a gibbering moron? Who would want to listen to that? What would Ronnie even talk about? And why does he have so many fans now?

But yeah, I don't see Chris actually taking time to do a podcast. It's just more bait for his fans. He's always going on about how "these guys suck and I can do better" but he never follows up on that. And he never mentions who the other guys are.

He also brought up ghosts again. Thought he was done with those? Apparently not. Then again, it is almost October, and Chris has somehow turned his ghost hunting obsession into a seasonal job. "Oh hey it's almost October, better call that moron that thinks the community center is haunted".

Same old shit over on Puppet Steve. Still talking about Baldi's Basics for some reason. He also posted a couple videos talking about Stephen King's It. Oh yeah, the horror movie about the eldritch monster that takes the form of a clown to MURDER CHILDREN. Perfect material for your toy channel targeted to 7 year olds.
According to my informant, there are comments on the videos that do call him out for talking about adult content like It or South Park or Rick & Morty. Chris just doesn't care.

You know Chris, if you want to bring back Irate Gamer while still following the algorithm's bullshit, just do an LP channel. Post a 15 minute video every day playing a game poorly with your lame-ass commentary sprinkled with "alright" every other sentence. I'm sure that will be a huge hit with your fan-zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Yeah it would be boring.

  1. I just don't see any way in which Irate Gamer could work in 2019 or beyond. Chris would often take months to produce a new IG video during the peak of that channel's popularity. How frequently can he produce IG episodes when he is posting Puppet Steve videos on a near daily basis? If he does release new IG videos they will be very stripped down. Far fewer special effects and idiotic jokes. That means the show would rely on Chris' writing and acting abilities. Yeah....

    Chris could try streaming gameplay and posting them on YouTube afterwards. Mike Matei seems to be doing well enough doing exactly that. I just don't see Chris being successful at it. He is not a particularly skilled gamer, he is not very engaging and by his own admission is not good at improvisation. Maybe he could do a dual stream with DSP.

  2. OT: Looks like GameStop is the next of the corporate giants that will soon be going under.

    2. Gamestop treats their employees like shit. Their problems run far deeper than digitalization.

    1. Dude, seriously? Calm down.
      Doing some shitty Videos is Not a crime. The other shit He got to make up for hisself, like the jewario thing, is onto him.

    2. Not cool. Chris is still a human being as are his family and friends. Criticizing the man for what he does is one thing but there is no reason to wish for violence against him.

    3. Comments like that are unacceptable.

    4. Thanks for removing the comment. Yes, Bores has done some asshole things, but that doesn't justify calling for his murder.

  5. Any thoughts on Spiderman possibly leaving MCU?

    My opinion: It would be a huge loss, but I highly disagree with comments like "MCU is over now". MCU was doing amazing even before Spiderman was added. Also, Iron Man is gone now and he was MCU's biggest hero for a decade. I don't remember people saying "MCU is going to suck now" when Iron Man died.

    I honestly look forward to what direction MCU will take.

  6. Well, Some guy named "Duddy" guests in the newest Puppet Steve. and by "guests" I mean he apparently gave Chris some audio and Chris made a crude photo animation of him being in Chris' house.

    At any rate, Duddy has 11 million subscribers, so business may pick up here any day now.

  7. Bores latest post:

    === Hey Grant Wilson, why are you using the same exact quotes during interviews I use to define my research in my paranormal studies that are word for word in my book that I have photographic proof that you own? Like "I'm going to show you the emotional side of a spirit" and "I'll show you what to do with a spirit after you found it." And you are going to the St Augustine Lighthouse just like I did to uncover what exactly? You also mentioned spirits falling in love in your interview....I don't want to jump to any conclusions here because I have always enjoyed our conversations together, but I'm warning you, if you steal ANYTHING from my research without giving me credit, I will not be kind in return. ===
