The look on Griffin's face is one of a man both embarrassed and delighted to have been kicked out of Safety Town.

Beef Jerky Robot posted:I can't wait to see the events that led to safety town Looks like they disagreed on something at some point and divided Safety Town into three lesser city states. Naturally Travis' rogue state and Griffin's police state were going to clash.

The logical conclusion of the show is that they burn Huntington to the ground. poo poo's gonna get real with the mayor.

Yeah. I'm going to as well. Their website is poo poo, is there any other good content that's worth keeping a sub? Looked like all standup and SNL clips.

Waffleman_ posted:They have Monty Python, and Harmonquest maybe if you like TAZ? I enjoyed Harmonquest. They also have The IT Crowd, The Young Ones, Fawlty Towers and The Kids in the Hall. If you are into standup, they have some good stuff every now and then. Big Jay's What's Your loving Deal is a crowd work show that has some good moments depending on the comics.

If you are worried about a Seeso sub not being worth it, I will say that there are a ton of really dope shows on there. Bajillion Dollar Properties is really good.

I haven't subscribed yet, but there've been Seeso banners in the subway showing that a bunch of different comedians I like have series on there. I figure I'll at least browse around and give it a shot.

From Forbes:quote:The weekly podcast My Brother, My Brother and Me had 5 million downloads last month (“that’s bonkers”, “that’s crazy,” the brothers say). Since it premiered in 2010, it has racked up over 63 million downloads. The Adventure Zone, a humor show about Dungeons & Dragons they host with their father, garnered 6 million downloads last month.

Fellatio del Toro posted:Is there like a code I can use to make sure they know I'm giving them money because of MBMBAM Nah. They really don't care. This isn't some weird little startup. It's owned by NBC/Universal. You could tweet @seesotv about your support of the boys though.

I used a free week code on Amazon to watch Harmonquest, and it was super easy to use and easy to cancel. That's probably just for Amazon Prime members though. Harmonquest is dope, so it's worth it for a month at least. flatluigi posted:From Forbes: Jesus. I'd wondered, but all the podcasts always said iTunes is impossible to get metrics off of. I assume Max Fun is the most financially successful podcast network, but the fact that two of them still work other jobs makes me wonder if there's not a better way to monetize. I'll make a completely apples and oranges comparison, because YouTube has a big ad-selling infrastructure of its own, but they'd be full-time YouTubers if they got those numbers there. EDIT: Also, Seeso definitely knows what you're watching and knows that the first thing you watch when you sign up is what you realllllly wanted it for.

iirc it's $200 for an ad, 100 for a personal post and there's all the max fun subs and merch but I have no idea how much that'd sell.

I'd actually assume MaxFun is less successful than Earwolf, and possibly behind Nerdist considering how much was paid for it. And NPR's podcasts may be ahead of all of them.

Ditto and Juice still working for Polygon makes sense since they are both enmeshed with their video series. And, c'mon, it's not like writing about video games is laborious work.

They keep metrics, sure, but don't count on them to re-sign shows based on that. Tatum Girlparts posted:it does seem they get that MBMBAM is popular because I've never seen them pimp a show like this That seems circumstantial. Have you heard of Seeso before the MBMBAM show? I hadn't heard of them before Big Jay Oakerson's show because I was a fan of his standup.

bunky posted:nerdist Scott Aukerman plugs Bajillion Dollar Properties and Take my Wife a lot on Comedy Bang Bang. It comes across as a bridge between the New Media of podcasting (which is really just the Old Media of Pappy O'Daniels Flour Hour radio programs) and the Big Networks. As for money talk, the Forbes article says outright that the Boys basically got paid the same for their month of shooting the SeeSo show as they do for a month of their podcast. Which either means they made beans on their TV show or they Make Bank podcasting. Like poo poo, you look at the Chapo Trap House podcast's Patreon page, they've got almost 10K people handing over $5 a month which translates to close to 45K a month (at least that's what the Patreon page says). If you consider that MBMBAM has close to 2-3 million active listeners, and only 0.5% of those listeners donate to MaxFun at the minimum level, that's at least $50K a month. And if you say that between distribution among all contributors to the network, the network's cut, overhead, and taxes they maybe only see $15K of that a month for all three? That's the functional equivalent of a 90K a year salary per dude, for what is essentially an hour and a half of them bullshitting on skype over the weekend and maybe another hour or two of editing. And that's before any cuts for ad revenue and shutouts. I guess what I'm trying to say is, that if my brief brush with unemployment for the last month has taught me anything, it's that doing nothing for an extended period of time is boring as gently caress and liable to drive you insane, so how much they actually get paid probably has nothing to do with all the projects they work on. It's poo poo they're good at and it's poo poo they clearly enjoy doing, so even if they pulled a cool Mil per MBMBAM episode, they'd still keep doing what they do because they love it and are good at it.
