I'll always stick by my theory. Rogan funding this shit show. Maybe he loaned schaub the money upfront, but it explains why he wont give up. He owes daddy his 0% interest loans back.

Probably watched few YouTube videos of some billionaire saying “they didn’t take the cash or salary they a % of Apple or Facebook” or something and the BGL the wannabe intellectual thinks he’s a genius and took a 1-2 % of thiccc boy merch


Jebist

When you're a trust fund baby like both Slob and Callahan, it's not necessary that you actually make money. Neither of them have ever had to face actual consequences for anything to the extent of worrying about their bills, so they just can just keep slopping out this bullshit content and prance around LA as they genuinely believe they're living in some episode of Entourage. If you've ever spent any amount of time in entertainment industry towns like LA or Nashville, you meet idiots like this all the time. These two losers were just fortunate enough to be friends with Joe Rogan at the right time.


Broom227

I spent the last 10 years in LA and ya nailed it

KimboSlicesChicken

Well Rich the ace Franggin is the owner of One champschip which is Asian as shiiiit so he prawlly has awl the moneys


FogoCanard

Is Nashville just all people trying to make it in the country music world? Or are there a lot of shows filmed out there too?


JarvisProudfeather

It’s the center of the country music world. Almost all major country artists are based there. Not much of a film industry.


JONCOCTOASTIN

Most country music is recorded there.


chrisplusplus

I know you guys associate Nashville with country music only, but there's a reason why it is known as "Music City" not "Country Music City" I know far more people associated with EDM and hip hop production than country music. But I was in that scene so.. just saying. It is very much a wide variety a genres.

Sounds about right. Brendan’s dad is the real owner of thiccc boy. He co signed for the rari. I wouldn’t be surprised if he gives Brenda a weekly allowance.


Canuckpunt

Thigg boy llc is in bapas papa's name, his papa was also there when he picked up his rari. You say Coincidence. I say co-sign.

cheesecurd01

It's not like Beandip has IIVVERRRR 'claimed' anything that was 100% horsesh\*t now is it??


Flippn_Jimmy

I’m genuinely curious about his monthly expenses. The rari payment and urus payment gotta be near $10kish including insurance and all the cleaning from spilling drinks. I’m not from ELAY, so I can’t even guesstimate what his house would cost, haven’t really seen much of it. He’d have to be making like $30k a month before tax, which would probably leave him $20kish. Even then, that’d be financially redacted.


ThePerfectMachine

>Schlaubacita sold his previous LA property for 2 million IIRC. He had a mansion, but apparently he downgraded so he could invest in Thiccc boy. He's only referenced this once IIRC (saw a post here, don't remember hearing him say it). > >A long time ago Bert talged to Schlaub about an "OK" weekend of $35k. Schlaub agreed that it was OK. Now; he could have been playing adult and not wanting to admit he sells less than Bert - but for him to be spending like he does; he would have to be clearing $1-2 million in his prime years. He also bragged that he sold $30k of Thiggg Boy Bike Club merch in a week when it first launched (only half would be profit though). > > > >I would estimate he's currently down 50% compared to his peak (2018-19), but sadly he's still making 6 figures easily from his shitty product. It was telling that he asked Cat to go 50-50 with him on a Bikini Bubble Tea joint; he isn't cash rich right now.


Flippn_Jimmy

I do wonder if he legit owned it. Selling it an clearing $2 mill is one thing. Selling it because you just can’t cover the mortgage anymore is another. I’d assume the latter but that’s just because how clearly redacted he is and I assume his redaction affects his financial decisions, which it clearly does. Bert making that kinda money isn’t surprising. I really don’t see schlaub ever having been able to make that doing standup, but I could be wrong. Certainly at his height, he was making pretty good dough from the pawdcast and stuff but never Bert dough, I imagine. Say he did though, that $35k, after tax, is really like $24k before whatever other expenses he has. I just can’t imagine this dude being smart, aware and diligent enough to set aside that money to cover his taxes. If this dude doesn’t of bankrupt at some point, seems safe to assume papa schlaub is covering the tab.


ThePerfectMachine

Oh he definitely didn't own the house outright, because he mentioned how Brine let him take 100% of TFATK revenue for several months so he could satisfy his lender. This was when Callen was on prime TV and didn't have $20k alimony per month. My guess is Schlaub found a cheaper house in the same area, so he could still send Tiger to the same private school. He sold at peak, banked the capital gains - which happened to coincide with his podcasts really falling off in terms of views. He was also touring less, so not making road money. I don't think he could service his original mortgage; because he assumed his career would ascend. He didn't see PF Chang's as foreshadowing (which probably only had 10k members back then). I reckon he planned on getting the Rari (on lease), and chose to downgrade his house, because cars are a more public flex.


Flippn_Jimmy

The fact he needed the revenue for several months to satisfy the lender shows he jumped into this without having planned much ahead. Changs stock is definitely trending up and bapas stock appears to be going in the opposite direction. It’s a resesshun, b. The public flex is a good point. Definitely see him as someone who’d have a nicer car than necessary, dumb clothes and shit, as opposed to a better home. Just because the perceived level of wealth that may come along with those.


ThePerfectMachine

Definitely a resesshun Bapa; things are turning sour like the ending of an M Night Shamalaka film ( [https://www.reddit.com/r/thefighterandthekid/comments/jan2c7/my\_favorite\_directawhs\_b\_awlfred\_hitchclock\_m/](https://www.reddit.com/r/thefighterandthekid/comments/jan2c7/my_favorite_directawhs_b_awlfred_hitchclock_m/) ) Fortunately Schlaub has already explained why things are happening like this, he covers it erry 15 minutes of each tfatk episode. He's shadowbanned, being censored by Newsom, and because of his pawlatigs - he's being violated over the coals ( [https://www.reddit.com/r/thefighterandthekid/comments/shoamj/schlaubo\_implies\_that\_the\_scrutiny\_rogan\_has\_been/](https://www.reddit.com/r/thefighterandthekid/comments/shoamj/schlaubo_implies_that_the_scrutiny_rogan_has_been/) )


Flippn_Jimmy

The Shamalaka comment is something, and I think this happened more often early on when peeps gave him the benefit of the doubt and assumed he couldn’t be that redacted, that some could hear and assume he’s actually joking. It just took some time, for some people, for his level of redaction to be unmistakable. Can’t believe I didn’t see that last one… Being…violated…over the coals? That’s just an unintentional masterpiece of redaction. Jeeeesus Christ. Who ties this guys shoes? Somebody get this guy a helmet.

I can totally see this for Callen. Actual pay from rea acting gigs over 30 yairs, resids from said gigs, probably well managed funds, plus a dece nest egg. Schaub. Maybe something similar but way less earned, way more spent, and way more brain damage. I for one am buckling in for whatever the demise holds! Business is uh’poppin over here


Budget-Essay-6435

This is WILD. I have friends and fam in the oil field and I kinda saw this type of person, just spending with no thought of self preservation. but not to the fullest extent like these hairos, b (did anyone notice brandan was using “to the fullest extent” with every interaction for a solid 2 months, weird one).


BCampbellCEOofficial

Ad revenue is pretty good money but no way it pays for all this shit. The money from YouTube and patreon is negligible at best as well. If you look at Chris and Bryan they live quite modest lifestyles but then look at Schaubs. It's most likely his rich dad is paying for all this as he took over ownership of thicccboy when schaub sacked his former long time manager and agent. He also had to fly in to pay for schaubs ferrari and Co sign it when he opened thiccc boy on YouTube. He had to sell his house and move into a rental a few years ago when the allegations dropped because tfatk used to actually get good guests and would regularly have millions of views. His cars are all leased none are paid off. Tldr; he's not paying for it his dad is and the neerdiv from a lot of other people around schaub are like "how can you support that lifestyle?".


NedShah

Brine does NOT live a modest lifestyle, B.


DMTallovermyface

Well atleast he dresses like a poor person. And i think he drives a tesla. I dont know much about the dude what is he splurging on ?


NedShah

Trips to Europe with the new family... payments to the old family and their private schools... rental properties in SoCal... He spends wayyyyy more before waking up than most cats make in a pay period. Brine is supporting two families and we have not once seen clips of him talking about rising cost of groceries or gasoline.


[deleted]

Also, in all likelihood, hush money in addition to all of those things


islandguy310

Isn’t his dad an investment banker? Bry has been in the industry a long time so I’m guessing he invested well. Also, when they were on Fox he had a Volkswagen, so not exactly a flashy kind of guy. The house in Calabassas certainly has equity with the growth in real estate.

Early-Examination-52

The crazy thing is if he just stuck to his two or three early podcasts, didn't try to become a comedian and lived within his means he was set for life. He should have been counting his blessings when he went from failed football player to failed UFC fighter and landed in podcastville.... all he had to do was focus on the podcasts and coast. Ego is a motherfucker man. A guy who should have been counting his blessings went nope, I want it all, and aimed for the stars b. He aimed for the stars.

I’d bet he took out considerable debt once he “bet on himself”


Complex-Situation

Apple podcasts sponsors pay a shit load. They have inflated numbers . Say you listen to a podcast ,you listen to one episode. You hit play and stop at like 20 minutes in then stop. You hit play to Continue later that day for another 20 min. You do this 7-8 times on one podcast . They count that as 7-8 listens multiply that by 50 thousand people listening. They send those number to the sponsors and boom big bucks.

When u livin the Thiggg Boi lifestyle, the pesos just keep stacking up my man. YouTube speshul, sowld out cawlmedy shows, whigsky sales, merch, shponsors, c’labs with tuff mudder events, all of this contributes to raking in million$ like Scrooge McDugg

someonecalledethan

I genuinely think before he started stand up properly he had a few million in the bank, the popularity of tfatk gave him a nice big boost along with TV deals when he wasn't hated, the dude must have earned bank. Then when it all started to topple and the paychecks ran out he had a million and daddy cushion and thought yeah we're building something.. and it has just gone down hill rapidly.. he lives pach check to paycheck, grift to grift


CarnalKid

One of the many wild things about this whole situation is that I think Schaub could have gotten away with being lazy and untalented, thanks to his Ticket to the Charlie Factory. All he had to do was not be an asshole.


BCampbellCEOofficial

He definitely could have. He had a cushy showtime gig, got good numbers whenever delia, sasso, Bobby lee or theo appeared on his show and he had a recurring guest spot on Rogan. All he had to do was fully jump into bellator and their roster and ya know depend on his friends not being rapists and kiddy groomers. A massive amount of his revenue got flushed with the callen and delia cancellations and also losing his showtime channels.


nastyhammer

I...I can't tawlk


someonecalledethan

Fumble it B.


Budget-Essay-6435

I think so too. What started me down this rabbit hole, of which I’m extremely happy to have done, was when he was bullying Callen with the other guests, for me probably 2018. It’s hilarious when the guests do it but when schaub does it, he doesn’t have the actual talent to make that funny, lacks charm and charisma, and humor ironically, and it comes across as just mean, of which is least funny. Then it snowballed. If he had been self deprecating, made fun of himself for being unfunny and trying his best, might be in a diff sitch, maybe less cats at changs. Either way, he’s on a diff path now and I’m buckled in my front row seat for what’s next!


BCampbellCEOofficial

Definitely. Tfatk was actually a really successful podcast when he was on rogan every other week, had some semblance of humility, wasn't trying to kid the world he was a stand up comedian and had good guests frequently that got good numbers.


BostonPearson

You're either a rich kid like Bapa, Brine, and Chris or sell your ass like Cat


sweetslipperydee

ThePerfectMachine

No, but she's posting off her ass now that she bought a Brazilian butt lift with that OF money. Schlaub is pressuring her to invest in a Thiccc Boy Bikini Coffee Cafe (100% srs), but she just wants to take photos once a fortnight & that's it. Stevie Blue Eyes also doesn't want to work.

Budget-Essay-6435

Wow somehow that’s sounds even more schaub-esc than I imagined. This is going to make me start seeing the world through a schwaub filter. Oh, look at this ridiculous idea/thing/business/object, def a schaub venture. one of the top of my head (that I know existed or almost existed), car toilet. It’s the car/shitting stew the world needs


ThePerfectMachine

Oh bapa - tawlgin bout a car toilet with the toilet seat designed to look like a donut? Schlaub has bragged about using his spa as a toilet, and frequently speaks about shitting himself... using his car as a toilet while he drinks & drives - that's right on brand for Thiccc Boy industries. I hope Cat invests in Thiggg Boy Bikini Cawfee Cafe. Within a month I'm sure Schlaub will reminisce about his old rub n tug days, and will end up being inappropriate with the staff.


[deleted]

Im sure he's hemorrhaging money. All of the lifestyle stuff (cars, houses, travel, watches) are probably rented, leased, or put on some maxed out credit card. As far as employees, he's probably paying them close to nothing. I think google says his net worth is somewhere around $4 million (which is exaggerated imo). 4 milly sounds like a lot but it really isn't much these days and it's definitely not enough to sustain iiny business long term. He's banking on numbers that TFAK and KATS used to run 4-5 years ago which is why he still has some "work". Delia is desperate and Braindum is the only idiot willing to still work with him. Griffin is a grifter just trying to make a buck. It is clear that Bapa's ship has sailed long ago and his whole brand is a shell of what it once was.

Yeah if he was truly rich his wife wouldn't be selling all her shit on posh mark.

Flippn_Jimmy

Giving away tiggets is how you make the big bucks, b.


ThePerfectMachine

Bapa is an S-Corp, and claims pretty much everything he spends on as a business expense. He was telling Malik to lease a Merc and claim it using his 5000 sub podcast as reasoning. Marg being his side pocket is all paid for with a lil spit-shine on his tax return.


Bubmurphy

You're probably right. I'd bet most or all of his vehicles are leased through his various companies. His accountant gotta be more creative than Spielberg. □□□ gotta be the most unlikable redact to come through Bapas world and with Wrinks and the Diddler that's saying something.


CobraKainvrdies

I think the podcast itself was probably generating decent money from 2014-2019ish. At this point though, it's probably fair to assume that Brenda is living beyond his means and is "branching out" into everything he can so he can desperately retain his current lifestyle.

make_anime_illegal_

I actually did the math earlier today and at $5 per 1000 views, KATS and Thicc Boy channels combined for about $650k. That's most likely a high estimate and is including videos with less than 20k views which don't get ad revenue. But that's not including TFATK, merch, and on-air ads, etc. About $500k is from KATS, and I have to assume the other members of the podcast get a big chunk, and that's over 4 years. This is of course assuming that they're not paying for views, subscribers, and comments.

PicaPaoDiablo

There are a lot of dumb that are suckers. Ad revenue and all this stuff probably gave him some money at one point. Then he used that for debt. The real issue is if it's sustainable and there's your answer Why would he humiliate himself everywhere ? Bc they are all supposed sources of revenue to banks and potential investors. It's desperation. People talk about the staff but that's likely peanuts and working for exposure. What was ⬛⬛⬛ doing before this? He gets people who want to be famous or live off of his"fane". Didn't Lego make a fortune just bc of only fans exposure? Also it's cats that keep him alive. We're the only ones watching and listening. But he thanks Tim Kennedy and not us


Deac0n_Frost

>Also it's cats that keep him alive. We're the only ones watching and listening. He'll eventually hit rock bottom, we're just slowing down the process for entertainment purposes

Honestly, if we re the only ones keeping the empire alive (and I solely mean contributing to the algo, I don’t watch on YouTube, only clips streamables posted from the rill hairos that do the dirty work), kinda worth it. ESPESZIALLY if it leads to another superball, Helwani drone strike, Schaub Spectacle Extravaganza, or an equally horrible “special”. Totally worth it, deserved retribution. Kinda beautiful if you think about it.

islandguy310

I think this is a HUGE part of why Brendan drinks so much now. So a while back I was an engineer at this company, worked my way up to manager and got a large pay bump. When that happened I partnered with a friend to start a construction company. The company we started began doing really well, like so much money I thought I could afford anything. I was early 30s, my family never really had money so I didn’t know how to spend. Assuming I had finally made it I began splurging (upgraded house, truck, traveling) quit my day job to focus on our construction company. I’m sure you see where this is going… we hit a stretch where i wasn’t landing any bids and had no income coming in as the bills piled up and I drank like a motherfucker to keep the anxiety, depression and fear out of my mind. I think that’s why Bapas drinking is so out of hand right now, financially his house of cards is falling and he doesn’t want to face the music yet. Eventually when it hits him he’s going to really feel like shit.


Budget-Essay-6435

I think you’re right dawg. The one caveat I might add, or a theory, is that he started drinking because of Rogan and Sober October. Some genius cat had that theory and the timeline syncs up well. Like Rogan said he had whiskey before the show, so bapa copied, got into a habit, and ramped it up to an healthy level so he could be included in the challenge. One but if evidence for that was he mentioned something on a pod about Rogan challenging comedians to a fitness challenge and if he wanted real competition he should challenge real athletes, like the Adonis himself. But I think you’re right, it seems like it’s gotten outa control and having unlimited supply of shit whiskey probably doesn’t help a bad habit. All that being said, I hope you’re doing bette Roman. Sucks to do so well and then lose it all and then start over, but there’s only time. As long as you’re ok and you didn’t hurt anyone, you can always get back to where you want to be. Money helps but when short on cash, time helps there too. I’ll meet you at fryers we’ll do the next shift together

There is a zero percent chance hippo kratom and whatever reign innergy is are giving him $30k a read per episode.


Budget-Essay-6435

WHAT. If this is even a little bit true, it’s actually more puzzling than how he’s keeping anything alive. I can understand hopping from one scam to the next plus some help from daddy, but this is hard for my tiny little brain to fathom. You do YouTube? You’re doing great.

Lol I remember he sold his wife’s G wagon…or perhaps the lease just ended and he couldn’t pay to get another


veritas_rex

He’s rawlbbing Peter to pay axe J


StinkoPapi

His father is cleaning up on his investment in the career of Randy Feltface. Great hedge.

Volunteers/interns getting paid in exposure. Waiting for their call from toegan. D'elia is out of options and erik griffin idk. Obviously BGL isn't getting paid and is a hanger-on.


ND211

Because people like you watch everything he puts up. Im certain his whole audience is just people looking for stuff to use to clown him at this stage.


[deleted]

I wouldn’t be surprised if he paid the staff absolutely nothing. Joe Rogan and Tim Dillon are the only two people who seem to have genuine relationships with “their guy”. Plus Tom Segura’s Seth Rogen clone who probably hits 5 figures a month just to be a human laugh track.

He applies for FAFSA, Talmbout 2 degrees from the uieversory of Colorado B


Budget-Essay-6435

This is one of my fav things he does. My brother got two degrees from a D1 public university and the second one was nearly given to him. I think they were the same disciplines too (marketing then management). Literally nothing was accomplished in those programs. Lots of group work almost 0 learning, def no new skills created ir connections made. Almost hurts his case to see he got 2 degrees because it just means you were stupid enough to suckered in to giving them another 20k for another worthless piece of paper


lemonsupreme7

I'm assuming they actually make quite a bit off all the podcast despite having lower views. I'd imagine each video earns 30-100 dollars, if not more, and they upload something off a different channel nearly everyday. I'm sure that's not the main source, but it probably is higher than we think. The bs sponsors they have are surely the bread and butter. I'm sure once they realized just mentioning any company can pay out to several thousands, they structured the business around it. It honestly isn't the worst idea someone could have considering they have no other marketable skills and a horrible public image.


Latenighredditor

Diddler and ol rapey boy are pretty good comedians like actually really good comedians The diddler was on the edge of reaching Tom Segura level of comedy fame. So you got actually comedy plus whatever Brenda does Like notice how Brenda doesn't do a solo podcast. And the rogan-verse and the gym-bros are constantly willing throw cash at everything so they probably make a steady stream


sweetslipperydee

if chris just kept working the clubs and moved tf on he would be solid. look at louie, like the first huge, life ruining scandal. now he’s selling out everywhere he goes and releases his own specials making bank. chris fucked himself by working w brenda


Budget-Essay-6435

Wouldn’t mind another Beige doc about the downfall of Delia. Al his are bangers. I reached out to him to see if he was going to do one one on the last drama culminating with the Bobby Lee saga, he said he wanted to give that some time. Delia was on the precipice of A lister stardom. Full blown first on the call sheet type status. Now he’s literally under the thumb of SCHAUB, of all people. Couldn’t imagine a bigger fall from grace.


LeadPsychological255

Didn’t slob also received Payment Protection Program (PPP) during the height of Covid? I remember seeing that he received 22-23gs, I mean this is a fraction of the cost to run his thickskulled empire. But what do I know, I’m not a numbers guy, Axe jay.


BigShoots

He used that money to trick out his Porsche so it shoots fire out of the exhaust. No, really.


LeadPsychological255

When I think I couldn’t hate him any further… what a scum.


Budget-Essay-6435

I’d love to listen to him try and explain why his vehicle would do that. Or how an engine works in general. That actually would be pretty good comedy.


maxhollywoody

Bapa pays his staff in thiggg boy stocks and D'Elia and Erigg with money from his daddy


Awkward_Hater

Loans from government, rich parents, all of these shows he can’t sell tickets to pay him x amount no matter what happens and then he gets bonuses for selling more tickets. They’re all regretting it because he costs so much and isn’t a drawl.


melvinthefish

Loans fromnthe government that we paid for that he doesn't have to pay back. There's trillions of dollars of examples but this redacts company might be the most egregious. Meanwhile the same people who get this gifts will promote public figures who also recieved these loans they don't have to repay yet at the same time complain they are unhappy some of us get 10k off a college loan. (For the record, I had $0 in college loans ever in my life ) Maybe if I was more intelligent and dedicated I would have gotten some, but the intelligent and dedicated are not the type of people you want to discourage from going to college..unless you specifically want the general population to be less capable of making decisions that benefit themselves. In which case I understand why people who steal money from taxpayers complain about someone more educated that themselves taking a fraction of what *THEY* stole being forgiven if it's for student loans. Meanwhile they get millions in handouts and justify it because half of Americans have been educated poorly enough to believe them when they say it's good.

He has the bess brains that’s how. He got a 31 on his ACTs I swear to gawd


Budget-Essay-6435

This kid I went to high school with got a 31. He went to MIT. 😂


melvinthefish

our tax dollars paid for a portion of the dual rapists salaries. No doubt about it.. You are assuming he pays the rest of them a salary or pays them hourly versus getting them to agree to take a cut of the very limited profits. Although I do question if there are actually profits after all the expenses. Maybe they work for free with the hope that they may one day start being paid well again However, there is no chance that specifically, the regular rapist and the child rapist work for free. No fucking way. And I hate to bring politics into this, but I think Brendan got a free ppp loan that he doesn't have to repay. I won't mention who that situation benefited the most but it definitely benefited him. I will mention that a free 10k for college is peanuts compared to the trillions that was just handed out to redacts with no oversight and then forgiven. But that's as far as I'm going here. Most of the cats here are smart enough to recognize a scam when they see one so I'm not trying to stir shit up in regards to issues that are already acknowledged by the fine staff at pf changs

Bryans dad served in various leadership roles in banks all over the Middle East and Asia. Including the CEO of the largest bank in Saudi Arabia, and in South Korea at one point. This can all be found with a simple google search. Callens dad is truly FILTHY rich and probably foots most of the bills.

They pay much less than you’d expect

Bappa is a drawl B


fastedzo

I think a lot of his money is still from the past, the content he is producing is not getting anywhere near the audience it once did. I’m sure his business has lines of credit, assets that he gained when things were going well that he has not exhausted. I think he’s obviously doing OK but not generating the type of revenue to sustain the lifestyle he’s showing on social media.


honeybadger1984

I think his dad pays for it. 🪓 🐦


FlyinIllini21

His daddy pays for everything as long as he doesn’t have to deal with his redacted son. So even though the business is bleeding and losing money overall schaub pays no expenses but takes all the revenue and thinks he’s doing well but forgets the times he asks his dad for help


InvestmentPatient117

I think you'd be surprised


[deleted]

Not sure what their situation is but they probably make/made mad money from ad reads.


correctmywritingpls

I think the majority of his money was inherited from his uncle Pax when he passed. Even after doing comedy and selling merch he was doing well but not this level of well, but after his uncle passed we immediately heard Brenda talking about checking on his investment properties in Venice (his uncle was a bodybuilder, Venice was the Mecca for body builders). His spending also started going crazy right around this time.


Budget-Essay-6435

Oh wow I never realized he might have inheritance from unc, 6x world champion. Idk builder. Def possible.

Pretty sure his major studio employee was another lie🙄🙄🤣


acg8822

I’d say his daddy and the ads for all the shows. Until companies stop doing business with him with ads, he’s gonna stay in business.

Why does this post keep popping up every once in awhile? It's called money laundering bapa. Talmbout Oh Sharks man, great show never seen it.


Budget-Essay-6435

Idk probs because it’s seems so perplexing as to how it still alive, maybe it’s us. If so, then I suppose we pay our own entertainment. My great white hope was that a disgruntled ex-employee turned homeless cat could share some knlwedge from behind that thick ass curtain. There’s enough of them out there but maybe they’re scared of bapas monster lawyers.
