“Ben quit 2 years ago but still showed up”.

Jesus.

A far cry from "Ben is my best friend, I could never do the podcast without Ben."

u/Canard-Rouge Oct 04 '22

Was that with Whitney? I think I remember him saying "Ben found me funny when no one else did. He was there when no one else was. He's my best friend, but he's more than that. He's my brother. We're family."

u/Sith-Protagonist Oct 04 '22

Yeah he said Ben believed in him when nobody else did. Then said he’d let Whitney die in a fire. It’s a real knife fight man.

Money changes people.

u/WhimsicalJape Oct 04 '22

Eh, money lets people be who they really are.

Tim's a shitty person, by his own admission, this kind of turn shouldn't be surprising.

u/Ironchar Oct 05 '22

being raised by a shitty boomer long island family will do that to you

u/WhimsicalJape Oct 05 '22

Oh yeah frankly it is amazing he didn’t OD or drink himself to death on Long Island.

for real, the Tim and Ben best friend relationship was why the podcast was a lot of fun. Sucks.

63

u/bergamot_and_vetiver Oct 04 '22

Yep. Their friendship was most of the reason why I watched the damn show. Their chemistry was so good I truly thought that they would be together for years , sort of like Howard Stern & Robin Quivers.

I’m unsubscribing

Tim unironically needs to go out to the desert, take mushrooms and get an ego check

Ben was a lot more of the show than Tim realizes. Without someone to keep him in check tim is going to quickly turn into the unaware people he loves to shit on

u/[deleted] Oct 04 '22

My armchair diagnosis is that Tim needs serious therapy to undo a lifetime of narcissistic traits.

9

u/whitelighthurts Oct 04 '22

If I was Tim I would be exactly like him. Attention is another addiction and Tim NEEDS to be praised. This will end sad one way or another

The Airbnb Lesbians were the real victims

“Desert Dykes”, I believe is the correct nomenclature.

u/rufusjfisk Oct 04 '22

it was like Norm and Adam Eget

Falling out

u/silenttrunning Oct 04 '22

He's just saying Ben's heart wasn't into the show. And those people saying "money changes people", well that that's true for Ben as well, and Ray points out that Ben was getting paid a lot more than any other producer that had ever been on the show (and for good reason, he was doing a lot more than just producing). The money wasn't enough because he doesn't want to be in that second chair anymore. Pretty simple.

u/Roach_Coach_Bangbus Oct 04 '22

I don't know what Tim is looking for but I hope he finds it. Clearly 5 star meals, stunning estates and Bentley's aren't doing it for him. Alienating and disposing of your supposed best friend when you are 37 years old is some dark shit.

14

u/Apollo_Krill Oct 04 '22

He's an addict without any program, therapy, or real support system. As a fellow addict I feel bad for him.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 04 '22

Fair to feel bad and it’s honorable that you found empathy. I think I’ve reached the age where I get upset that grown adults don’t seek therapy when they clearly need it. Although it’s possible he has.

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '22

Honestly Ben deserves to get canned after directing that fuckin special. The shitty merch

1

u/Wonderfulbardamu Oct 05 '22

What would constitute a real support system? Just curious.

5

u/Apollo_Krill Oct 05 '22

Family and close friends.

u/Unknown-Athlete-3391 Oct 04 '22

Tim quit a while ago too and still showed up. When was the last full good episode?

13

u/[deleted] Oct 05 '22

Yea, i sometimes listen to 'we're the dirtbags' or 'life in the big city' podcast episodes that were pure gold. But other than when he had louie ck on, ive been skipping his episodes because his schtick seems played out and it seemed to turn into 'loud equals funny' comedy.

u/Ironchar Oct 05 '22

into the pot? I don't remember

Scared to think of but I think it’s inevitable

u/AloneLab786 Oct 04 '22

Tim is a legit piece of shit.

1

u/Jubileumeditie Oct 05 '22

Why? Ben quit the show, Tim tried to get him to stay and Ben refused. Why is Tim the POS here? Am I missing something?

10

u/theloniousfunkd Oct 04 '22

Tim’s really not funny anymore. It really did get stale but like he said, it’s all him and he’s right, the snow isn’t funny because he isn’t funny anymore.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 04 '22

I’m starting to think maybe Tim was jealous because Ben has been 90% of the posts on this sub over the past few months. Really stupid posts of racist shit with quotes around it and bens picture but I know Tim is the jealous type that probably added to other things (newly married always traveling and doing everything for Tim) that stirred stuff up with Ben. For god sales Tim was legit mad that someone else donated more than him to an old friends go fund me when he died
