Just had to pause and share this thought during the convo about feeling like you have to do an idea just so no one else does it first. I really liked QT’s take on it. I’ve definitely felt that frustration too (as Rae mentioned) wanting to keep something to myself out of fear someone else might do it first. But hearing QT say “fuck it, I'll say it out loud" and "just do it better", just screams fuck it just have fun with it”-- really hit. At the end of the day, there’s so much out there already, and nothing is ever fully original. Most things are inspired by a mix of other things anyway. That perspective makes it feel lighter—like it’s okay to just create without stressing too much. More people doing similar things just means more perspectives, more content, more fun. Also reminded me of something I read once—how ideas are like frequencies, and we’re all kind of receivers (and sometimes senders). So if you don’t act on an idea, it might show up in someone else’s mind too. Or maybe multiple people receive it around the same time. Either way, it’s kind of cool to think about.

Post Malone is still alive and incredibly successful. Exactly what was the curse?

I said this on YouTube but the loud noise you heard outside your hotel was most likely a bear banger, which is used to scare off wildlife. People like to set them off in neighbourhoods like the Tenderloin, sometimes to alert people of police and sometimes just for fun. I hear them pretty regularly and yes they are very loud

26:20 the Howl is one of the most expensive M4 (CT side AK) skins in the game. The knife is what he sold his car for but he ALSO has an M4 Howl worth many thousands of dollars. I also had to give it to Aiden recently because...the car he sold would be worth $500 today, the knife he bought only depreciated by 2%

I'm glad this episode had the producer chime in to point out that the "responses" from the cheating couple were fake. Bless her heart, but QT is a little gullible at times and I'm glad we didn't have a long segment where they treated those fake statements as real and discussed them.

It’s the same thing with the try guys situation. Yeah it sucks that Ned cheated on his wife but the issue was the legality of dating an employee and the possibility of a lawsuit. Especially since there was another employee at the Coldplay concert with them. So yes they both should have lost their jobs

Sami Salsa

I love that QT still has someone who she can educate about Pop-Culture 😂

Sascha Scholz

If they were cheating with randos it’d be one thing but the fact that they work together and their ROLES makes it completely reasonable for them to be fired.

Jaded Kills

You guys should talk about influential people from the music entertainment to films and media! And pick your own’s list with opinions of the best that fit those qualities deep dive!! 🦭🐋🐬🐟🫧🌊

Alfonso Paredes

The man did a ridiculous amount of drugs. Every time I’d hear anything about it, I would think “how the hell is he still alive”

Michael Schmidt

I love QT because she’s one of the very few people in the streaming industry taking it seriously and trying to help people

Kevin Stefanowicz

Show Rae the conjuring movies!

Aaron Casey

QT is a good GF cuz she tried her best to not admit that Nick was better lmao

Durrell Fisher

i mean you could be right but its nearly impossible to keep up an act like that for long unless you're a completely emotionally detached person

Rico

I LOVE when the pods crossover and I get to see the same conversation from the other side.

Phuong Le

jakura.. I think people don't realize that they're making so much money from this and it's in their best interest to fake it. it's like when you ask someone "would you s*ck a d*ck for a million dollars", but instead it's, do you want to fake being in love with an otherwise cute girl (even if you're not in love) for a million dollars, the answer is obviously yes

Make3333

You don’t need to reinvent the wheel if it isn’t broken! I honestly don’t think it’s a crime to have content that’s similar to others. Like y’all said, it’ll always translate differently. ♥

rae on the yard when!!!

I think the average life expectancy for a male is like 75. Out of all the rockstars from his era the fact that Ozzy lived so long is a miracle. He definitely lived life as much as someone can

Dropout.tv did a Survivor series on their Game Changer show and it was so good! I liked that it was kind of small-budget, made you feel like you could do it at home with friends. Would be good inspiration for QT’s survivor ☺️

ubiiiiiiiiiiiii

Sorry Rae, but I was honestly a bit shocked you had never heard about Annabelle 🌻 But it also made me feel at home, because it reminded me so much of the times, where Maya didn't know about something pretty well known 😄 This just reaffirmed to me, you were for sure the best choice as the next co-host on Wine About It 💜💜

Christina

conflict of interest. even if you are not cheating and just dating someone from HR as a CEO you gotta officially disclose it to the company (even if allowed in terms of positions)

Krystal

Qt mentioning Micheal in the Scott’s tots episode is so real its one of the episodes i skip EVERY time i rewatch it cant lie

LanitaDelBBL

you’re not making it up. I read about how there was a lot of drugged and drunken physical fighting/abuse from both Ozzy and Sharon in their marriage at least at certain points (per Sharon herself), but that’s obviously no excuse and it sounded like he definitely did the most damage. he would apparently beat her and even knocked her front teeth out once. then like you said there’s the strangling where he was arrested for attempted murder before Sharon forgave him following a 6 week rehab stint. he also had an affair at one point that apparently caused her to try and take her own life. they just stayed together despite all of that so it doesn’t get brought up enough. death is still death, he had family and friends that I’m sure loved him anyways, and the finality can be sad but he had some pretty bad contributions to the world too.

LeahGia

It's actually more common for people in marriages to cheat with people in marriages because it means both parties have the same stakes. Apparently she was in the middle of a divorce but it actually tracks they'd be similar in age if it started when they were both married.

Idk why qt thought this episode was bad, i think this is probably my fav patreon ep so far. It felt very cozy and natural!

LanitaDelBBL

Respectfully, the world is an objectively better place without pro-genocide people like Osbourne. Anyway, I sincerely hope you two don’t get too bummed out about being told he sucks, that type of freak can be found literally anywhere.

Anomalous_Daniel

Such a great episode, I also notice on gaming streams when streamers are like “pick me” in chat and I get the ick 🫠

Marisol

Being HR and having an affair with your CEO absolutely should affect your job lol Same for the CEO. You should not be cheating with your coworkers in public, especially from a position of power in the company.

Anthony Rivera

Ed and Lorraine Warren are absolutely scam artists. Also Ed Warren slept with a 15 year old when he was 40

Nathanael Lyman

I work in HR as an analyst. optics aside, the reason for the CEO resigning is more complicated than cheating, it just happens to align with what he maybe deserves karma-wise also. she’s the Chief People Officer which means there’s a 99.9% chance he was also her direct boss, which creates a huge conflict of interest especially at that level. it’s less about cheating and more so that you often can’t ethically or justly have those sorts of relations within a direct reporting chain especially if that closeness/bias is being covered up and also because the power imbalance could lead to problems/abuse of power. the company’s Board of Directors (who essentially act as a boss for the CEO amongst other things) likely would have been forced into some kind of action regardless if he hadn’t resigned. the woman is on involuntary leave but they may end up letting her go after the investigation (likely by a third-party). also apparently the woman next to them wasn’t an employee and people misidentified her (it sucks so much for her that her name got plastered everywhere). it doesn’t seem like the concert was a company thing at all. a lot of companies even require employees to self-report if they get into a relationship with a coworker so they can make sure there isn’t any conflict of interest otherwise they’ll try move one to a different position or team. if he was just having an affair with his next door neighbor, he’d still be a shitty person for that but he might still have a job.

LeahGia

This was my fav ep with rae on so far, it feels super natural and not all forced ! Would also love to see a girls trip stream :]

Eliana

Yeah it’s literally a legal conflict of interest. If they didn’t disclose their relationship to the company then it was grounds for termination. It had nothing to do with either of them cheating on their spouses.

Shelby

when I'm trying to get friends together to stream something I have to be so careful of which friends aren't vibing and vast majority of the time I'm not told about changes like this. I just have to be like well I haven't seen this person do anything with the other recently so I think they might not fuck with each other any more, or I have to pick up on the subtlest hints on how I have seen them interact and it's so exhausting and I just want one big friend group of people where everyone like each other and they don't fragment away and then I can't hang out with them all anymore :(

Murkus

Yeah I mean Ozzy supports Israel and very recently co-signed a letter calling the BBC for sharing anti-Israeli sentiments which is laughable because hello??? The entire western media space supports only Israel explicitly, including the BBC. Also, Ozzy almost strangled his wife to death in the 80s. I think there was more abuse but I could be making that up. I know there was all the media about the Osbournes (they had a telly show right?) trying to paint them all as relatable and funny and touching as Ozzy struggled with his drug addictions while still being a rockstar famous dad but yeah, rest in piss in my opinion.

Elijah

Wait it’s not that one doll from pbs where the host did yoga to tell the time

Njoy

the Chief People Officer reports directly to the CEO in nearly every single company structure like this so he is in fact almost definitely also her direct boss which creates a huge conflict of interest especially at that level… it’s almost less about cheating and more just that you can’t have those sort of relations within the same leadership chain in most companies especially if that closeness/bias is being covered up

LeahGia

Great ep ty

Julian

you shouldn't be fired for cheating, but you should be fired if you the person you're cheating with works for you, and technically HR is a separate thing but I think it still applies in this case

Smurgle 13

okay something that i’ve noticed is that you guys talk about the order in which you do things (main, bonus, gaming, call ins) but they’re actually released differently (call ins thursday, gaming friday). thoughts on inverting the schedule to match that flow? i feel like there’s a couple continuity things that confused me where like you mention something that happened during gaming on call ins. it’s a little nitpicky but i thought it was worth suggesting :3

stel phone

Ew Ludwig pulling an I’m a nice guy. QT should date Rae

Sun

Survivor would be so cool, slaughterhouse island on Shasta lake would be perfect it’s already a campground and is not too far away

Aidan Mark

I tried summoning demons for like a decade and eventually just gave up on them being real. Like I'm talking full on rituals in cemeteries and the woods in the dead of the night. No reason, just wanted to see if they were real and to see if I could.

cagelirious \m/-_-\m/

i agree with qt that if you cheat you shouldn't lose your job. Personal and work are two separate things typically lol The problem with the Astronomer folks is there were both internal in positions of power in the same company. People could lose their jobs by discovering the affair or could have been told they would be fired if they said anything. Him resigning and or her being fired was the only option because of that most likely

#qtReactToQt

ubiiiiiiiiiiiii

does qt know she shares her name with the famed pc music musical project?

ubiiiiiiiiiiiii

Also the guy and girl got fired because if people go to hr about the boss it creates problems for the coworkers not being able to use their resources when something bad happens becausethe hr girl wouldn't listen to them, its a power imbalance and as a ceo and hr you signed paper work saying you can get fired if you cross the line

Hex

The vibes are great qt! Don't stress!

Hex

wahoo!
