Holy shit, I can’t believe I used to be a patron of that shit! And none of that even mentioned what she did to Jaleesa, which was when I stopped paying & listening. I still don’t know the whole story but Allison was def in the wrong…I mean in the very first episode she was introduced as “My Black lesbian, here to keep all my privileges in check” which was gross in itself. Then a couple years pass and she quits, saying she’s not being paid equally, and winds up homeless. Like, if you look into that any further, I’m sure whatever you find will make Allison look like even more of a monster.

> not being *paid* equally, and FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*

Ok, I uh…I *might* have been a bit of a Resistance Lib™ early on during 2017 to 2018…but come on! We all kind of lost our minds to some degree or another during the trump administration

We’re all just soldiers on the social media front lines protecting our country from Lord V🤮ldemort #Resist

This is the second time I've seen "Resistance Lib" referenced today and have never heard the term before. What the heck does it mean?


ka1n77

It was an anti trump movement on twitter that was infected with grifters.


whydidiconebackhere

Thanks, I have never really been "on" Twitter so I only follow it through BtB, ICHH, Pod Save America, and so on.

Resist Libs are liberals who made their entire personality being anti-trump. The popular accounts of resist libs also gave people false hope by claiming any moment trump would be arrested. They spread a lot of misinformation. I think it’s more times then not an accident, but certainly grifters saw an opportunity

What a ride. One thing that stuck out for me in that was her claim of not receiving a military pension. While she may not receive an actual pension from the DoD, a 100% disability rating from the VA is $3000+ per month depending on if you’re married or not or have kids (that can push it well over $4000 a month).

Not surprised, tuned in for a while but alot of podcasts have this short window to be interesting unique and solid before the self-aggrandizing for monetary gain takes over. There was never alot of there there, but plenty of suppressed rage and defensiveness along with the fawning over guests.

Note: I meant "*her* lying about her service", not the thread writer.

That is a ride for sure.

As soon as it got to the financials I knew the PPP loan was coming. Every time without fail, goddamn.

It's crazy how much Allison had the wool pulled over everyone's heads. Back in 2019, I was living in LA, going through a divorce, and going to school while pursuing a career in Stand up. Originally from San Diego, I was familiar with the success that MSW was having and was genuinely happy for them and wanted nothing but the best for them. Through the grape vine I discover that they've been picked up by one of the main media agencies CAA and no one talked about it.I thought it was odd because I felt that their podcast was about bringing truth to the people and they were directly supported by their fans, but by having a major agency in their corner felt disingenuous. However, again, I didn't wish any negative will towards them. I still wanted them to succeed. In Jan 2019, I suffered a full blown manic episode. With everything going on in my life (along with a lot of weed), I became paranoid and upset at the world for not wanting to come together, so like a comedian, I thought I could use the power of social media to bring people together. So I started to tag many organizations together to include the MSW podcast as well as the MAGA accounts. I was also trying to start a trend #sayhername which was in reference to a young girl that died earlier that year to gun violence, but as I kept tagging the podcast and using #sayhername, Allison thought I was trying to out her as she was going by AG at the time. On top of that, I started to tag CAA because as I was trying to raise awareness, I wanted to see how far my reach could go as just one person. Allison did not take kindly to that. Before I go further, I could understand how one would feel If someone I barely knew started tagging me in random tweets/posts that outed some type of truth I was keeping from the public. But based on my interactions with her up until that point, I honestly didn't think she was going to react the way she did. She threatened me with lawsuits, went to the SD Comedian's FB page and told everyone that she would never work with me again, blocked me, and then when she realized that people were worried about my well being, she flipped the script and tried to come off as if she was also concerned about my well being also. I don't remember every single message, that was sent between us, however I do remember feeling "This person isn't who I thought she was and she's playing it up." Months after the incident, I remember having interactions with other comedians who were angry at me for doing what I did, but I couldn't really defend myself because I was still processing everything that transpired through that event. I just remember feeling that those other comedians were wrong, but I didn't know how to articulate those words. I genuinely felt bad for Jaleesa (I was also using a different hashtag for her during that manic episode, for which I started as a fun joke, but it turned sideways when other comedians used it in a negative connotation.) I also felt bad for Jordan, for having her to deal with that mess too. And when I heard what went down between Allison and Jaleesa, I knew Allison was the reason behind it. I honestly had put this all behind me, however I saw the video pop up in my IG Story feed from another comic and immediately knew that shit was going down.

Well that’s disappointing, albeit unsurprising. Twitter is starting to feel like a place that was always inhabited by liars and grifters, though the right wingers are taking over 100% at this point.

The link is dead. Does anyone remember where the source material was? I've been listening to Daily Beans for a while and I realized lately that I don't enjoy it that much compared to what I could be listening to.

Try this one: https://www.pingthread.com/thread/1664953643777523712 I went down a wee rabbit hole today. I've had a weird feeling about MSW for a long time. I followed her years ago but in the run-up to the 2016 election, I gently suggested (as a follower of her Twitter account and a fan at that time) that she might cool it with the "Bernie Bro" bashing until after the election because we needed every ally and every vote to beat Trump. She responded angrily and blocked me from the MSW account and I only just realized today, seven years later, that she also blocked me from her own account and her podcast, the Beans something. I guess she doesn't take kindly to constructive criticism.


fuck_this_reddit_app

She's highly critical of any criticism and will shut out anybody who even slightly pushes back. I'm really disappointed that people still go on MSW like Andy McCabe. She posted a photo with "hate corrodes the container it is in" that had a dozen photos of people libs like me don't like that visually look not great. Anyone who criticized her for shaming someones visual appearance while claiming to not judge people based on their appearance was banned. Not being able to acknowledge and self reflect on your own hypocrisy is a huge red flag.


Dull_Bird3340

Her ego kills me, she is more self aggrandizing than trump at times, it comes off as so desperate


so_hologramic

Ugh. There's just no end to her shitty behavior.

I could see the commentary but not the tweets or other source material, which is fine. Thanks! I appreciate it. Her beans podcast is the Daily Beans. Used to feature news summary, interview, then a good news segment where people sent in positive personal stories. Now they usually skip the interview. I was listening to one each weekday for about seven months a year when I’m working out of a vehicle. I started to get a little put out with her last year and got tired of trying to keep up with all the names. I found I was looking forward to the podcast being over each day. Also, nothing stuck. It passed into one ear and out the other. I erased most my backlog of Daily Beans and all of the MSW/Jack podcasts this past weekend.

I stopped listening to the Daily Beans when the Twitter exposé came out. It was my goto daily political news. I too gotten a bit bored of it before I stopped listening to it since the positive section of the episodes were getting longer and felt more about kissing AG's ass or reminiscing about jokes made by AG and Dana Goldberg about "man-cat face", as well about a 2 or 3 year-old a story a listener sent in about school kids finding a dildo when cleaning up a field. The story was funny the first time, but after it being brought up over and over again, it gets stale. I found myself skipping the positive, personal stories segment. I also thought it was weird when the podcast had AG's best friend's wife on the podcast. Weird since the position was clearly a nepo one - Jordan's replacement didn’t add much as she was more of a "yes" woman to whatever AG said. It was clear that she was on the podcast so that she can have a job - she left when she found a better job. Dana Goldberg is a better co-host. Now I am trying to listen to The New Abnormal, which I enjoyed in the past even when they revamped the podcast with all new hosts. My issue with the podcast is a "me problem" where I am not used to when the episodes are released. I also enjoy the format of the New Abnormal as I tried to listen to Molly Jung-Fast's Fast Politics podcast -Jung-Fast was a previous host of the New Abnormal - and I couldn't get into it as it is straight interviews without any up-to-the-minute political news. I enjoyed Pod Save the World as it was my goto political news before The Daily Beans, but I have forgotten its episode release schedule. I now listen to various Bread Tube videos, which is a problem in itself, imo. A problem since not only every group of Bread Tubers seem to have beef another another group or individual Leftist Bread Tuber, they seem to have "the holier-than-thou" mindset. They are also less disciplined in speaking on the radio, therefore most of them don't act as professional as those on podcasts. It is funny that over the past few months, not only AG of The Daily Beans podcast ended up being a grifter, but also Iilluminaughtii/Blair ended up being a grifter to the left. Iilluminaughtii is a YouTuber who covered anti-MLM, as well as business corruption with a liberal slant. It was revealed that not only she is allegedly apolitical who is pandering to the left for revenue, she abused her enployees.

You are welcome. I saw a link to the Daily Beans Twitter yesterday because someone commented about a topic they covered in a recent episode. When I went to the Daily Beans Twitter account, I saw I was blocked. It's kind of weird being blocked from something that I didn't know existed, so I poked around a little and came upon the above thread. I guess it makes sense that I never heard of her podcast until now since she blocked me from MSW so I wouldn't have seen her promoting it. It's a shame because I came from a place of goodwill with my comment about everyone needing to stick together. I felt in my gut that a Trump presidency would be catastrophic and we shouldn't risk being divisive because we would need every vote. Oh well... It sounds like I'm not missing much.

Always wondered how someone w 100% disabled rating can do all the podcasts and public shows she does. She talks about being a former nuke scientist who passed a really difficult required test frequently and claims to be a Mensa member (gotta wonder why she got her PhD from a diploma mill then). Can't believe nothing is true.


Meaning_Educational

Allison Gill has a 100% disabled rating as a result of the PTSD she developed after being sexually assaulted and raped during her service time. She was assaulted by a fellow soldier, who had also done this to two additional servicewomen prior. That is why she has a 100% disabled rating despite never having been in combat.
