March Madness!
Added 2025-02-20 01:43:01 +0000 UTCWhat's up, homies!
We wanted to address all Patreon members, whether you're paying for a monthly or annual subscription or are a free member lurking around our neighborhood. Reactions have been scarce in the last month or so. That was mostly a result of us getting bottlenecked during the fall and winter with taking on too many shows at once right around the holidays and choosing to deliver them all to Patreon and YouTube at the same time instead of being more selective and realistic with what we could take on.
As we continued to see Patreon numbers dropping, we knew we had to address the issue and find a solution.
After taking time last month to reassess, we decided that starting this year, we're going to be more selective with how we deliver reactions to both platforms. Patreon will always be the go-to spot to get first dibs on everything we're watching. With YouTube, it'll be on a case-by-case basis, primarily based on the popularity of the property. Yes, things like Daredevil: Born Again and The Last of Us will get prioritized for YouTube and Patreon, while shows like Alien: Earth might live on Patreon only for now or until we can edit those videos.
All that being said, we've been hammering out a recording schedule that will allow us to start delivering [uncut] reactions for shows like Arcane, The Bad Batch, Star Trek: Discovery, My Adventures with Superman, and more, starting in March. We're going to continue releasing movie reactions on Fridays, beginning with the Mission: Impossible franchise. We also plan to experiment with solo and duo reactions for select films and shows. While we know everyone would like to see all THREE homies react to everything together, it's a bit of a jigsaw puzzle getting everyone's schedules aligned sometimes, or someone may not be interested in covering a certain show or movie, and we don't want to force anyone to watch something they're not interested in.
We've already uploaded some reactions that are scheduled to drop in the coming weeks. We'll be sure to release a weekly schedule every Monday with more details. Our hope is that over the next couple of months, we'll be able to deliver 1-3 new reactions every weekday to maximize the value of your dollar spent and also start incorporating new shows chosen by you — looking at you Vox Machina and Demon Slayer.

2025-02-21 14:36:02 +0000 UTCI agree with ma fellow homies in saying thank you for the transparency and clarity!! I've missed y'all very much. I look forward to the upcoming spectacular content that y'all are getting ready to deliver to us. Much luv

2025-02-21 01:14:19 +0000 UTCThank you for this transparency, which I have missed at times in recent months. I won't hide the fact that I was a little disappointed at times by the silence here. I understand and respect the “life stuff” and necessary breaks, but a few words here and there would have been helpful. And honestly, I was worried about the three of you too. But the way you're pulling back on the reins now, I'm sure many Patreons will return and we'll all have a great time together. I've grown so fond of you, I hope you know that. I'm right there with you and looking forward to this “March Madness”, be it TBB or - and this is super exciting, I've been waiting for this for years - finally some Star Trek, how nice! A schedule, be it weekly or at least monthly (which would be just as acceptable to me) is super welcome, as it allows me to better plan my time to watch your uncuts. Homie Level is calling me already...

2025-02-20 16:59:58 +0000 UTCCan we get the YouTube edit early on here 😭 I love watching everything with you guys but sometimes don’t have the time to sink up so I end up waiting for the YouTube edit

2025-02-20 14:24:11 +0000 UTCVery cool yall decided to do solo and duo reactions. Ive always wondered why you guys didnt do that as you could cover way more stuff and give the patrons more content.

2025-02-20 09:40:20 +0000 UTCHoping for more reactions on the Secret Level episodes. :)

2025-02-20 08:50:33 +0000 UTCYou lads are well worth the cash, there is still so much in your archives that I haven't gotten to yet (plus I keep re-watching your She-Hulk reactions 😁). I say work at whatever pace you need to, in whatever fashion suits you, and I'm in - however, that's shit to hear Patron numbers are dropping. Booo.

2025-02-20 06:48:15 +0000 UTCThank you for the transparency, guys! I truly appreciate all the hard work and effort you’re putting into this channel. Just remember that you’ve got folks out here who will stick with and support you whether you post five videos or fifty videos a month. You three do what you feel is best for you, don’t feel pressured to churn out more than what you can handle. Your personal, offline lives are just as important as what you’re doing here. Besides, I’ve been here a while. Y’all aren’t getting rid of me that easy! 🫡🤓

2025-02-20 06:21:51 +0000 UTCThis is awesome. Love the transparency and communication. You guys are a staple in my life at this point so I'll support however you guys need to do content. I'm just happy when I get to laugh and have fun with the boys :) oh and Fridays are such a good day to drop movies reactions, little treat I'll look forward to on the weekends !

2025-02-20 03:51:19 +0000 UTCDad Batch 😮🥲🥲🥲 this post...it's so beautiful! Honestly at first I was mad at the drop in content but then it really made me go back through the catalog and finally watch LOTR OG trilogy, the Ghibli films, and anything else not Marvel, DC or Star Wars...was actually really nice! No worries from this guy! Keep up the great work!

2025-02-20 02:58:21 +0000 UTCThanks for the transparency with this, guys! I realize that these things take time to put out and that life often gets in the way, but I think a schedule is a GREAT way to keep people in the know of what's coming.

2025-02-20 02:45:01 +0000 UTCI've been banging the drum for you guys to watch vox machina for years. Consider me HYPED!!

2025-02-20 02:22:58 +0000 UTCThanks! Yeah, we think building up over the next few months will be really beneficial to maintaining consistency.

2025-02-20 02:17:53 +0000 UTCThis is awesome guys! Not just the content (which i'm hyped for) but the transparency and the willingness to commit to posting schedules. I am a HR patron lifer but that will be huge when it comes to keeping ppl subscribed and encouraging new ppl to join!

2025-02-20 02:11:07 +0000 UTCOh i know! It would be awesome to have her as a guest.

2025-02-20 02:02:21 +0000 UTCIt'll be over the course of a few months. Not right away.

2025-02-20 02:00:59 +0000 UTCWe're hoping to get a really great guest for that one. If you know you know. XD

2025-02-20 01:59:41 +0000 UTCWe talked about the challenges of scheduling at length last month. With Hector accompanying his girlfriend to multiple conventions per month, Agustin's day job schedule, and Adam holding the fort down getting most videos out, we knew we needed to create several weeks of runway to batch record as much as we could and hold on to it all to release at the right time. Now that we're doing that, it's more realistic for us to stay weeks ahead of schedule instead of trying to do all of the recording, editing, and releasing the week of. So, I totally understand why you chose to pause your membership, and we'd never fault anyone for doing so.

2025-02-20 01:53:17 +0000 UTCYeah, a schedule makes sense for everyone, although daily reactions 5 days a week still seems pretty sporty to me. Maybe start out doing Mon, Weds, Fri and if you start getting a backlog, you can start tweaking things.

2025-02-20 01:52:57 +0000 UTCDemon Slayer?!?? No way!
McDudely
2025-02-20 01:52:09 +0000 UTCI am just being honest here and in no way am I trying to be mean. But it was disappointing when I had upgraded to the new tier that was $15 a month. I don’t have that much money but wanted to support you guys because I love your channels, content, and community but there was a major drop in content and so I waited and eventually made the decision to pause my membership. I am hoping to return down the line and supporting you guys again but there’s been so many reforges as Hector put it in the podcast that it feels like eventually things fizzle out which is understandable because you guys have lives outside this! Again I mean no harm with this, just wanted to share my thoughts! #BePeace
