Inside TFM, Ep. 35: Grab Her By The Podcast
This week we debate “Trump’s locker room talk,” give a statement about Boosh and the rest of our writers — you can read a FULL statement on the events of the last few days from our CEO Madison here, tell an embarrassing porno at work story, play the game “Is This PC Controversy Real or Fake,” and there are no hotline calls this week because our producer Ham fucked up and lost the final 20 minutes of the podcast.
Member Dan Regester?

8 years ago at 10:03 amMember asshole Boosh
8 years ago at 10:06 amTried too hard and meant it as a compliment. I’ll take the L.
8 years ago at 10:10 amI always liked Boosh and Dan. Harrison came across as an asshole, though the freelancers said he was good to work with.
8 years ago at 10:43 amPeople say I am a loveable asshole.
8 years ago at 10:59 amHow’s GLink going? If you could make on-course deliveries using drones, that would be cool.
8 years ago at 11:04 amDrone delivery has been written on the whiteboard for future iteration. I like that idea
8 years ago at 5:37 pmI’m going to guess I sealed my fate when I openly and sincerely thought “Texas State” was a team Blue Mountain State played in an episode I’d forgotten.
8 years ago at 11:53 amBoosh was the GOAT gonna miss that crazy bastard.
8 years ago at 2:26 pmMember boosh again?
8 years ago at 2:55 pmPepperidge farms remembers
8 years ago at 7:22 pmI”m having major IBOTD withdrawals. Can’t you put one of your shitty interns on the job? Plus, is anyone going to man up and tell us exactly what the hell happened?
8 years ago at 10:00 amThey were just spending too much generating internet content. TFM alone (not counting PGP and TSM) had 4 content managers on payroll, plus the shitty freelancers working at $25/column. If we’re willing to read Wally’s freelance shit (and buy the clothes), then paying these other guys to generate “content” didn’t make sense.
8 years ago at 10:54 amThe freelancers make $25 bucks per fuckin’ column? So, basically, they can go to the movie theater [alone] and see a movie [with no popcorn or gummy bears] every time they write a column? Geeeeesh, where do I sign up? Anyway, if management is reading this – the last nail in your coffin is if you give up IBOTD. If no one is going to come for your shitty columns, we at least need some visuals to make us check on the site daily….
8 years ago at 11:03 am$25 for an original column, $15 for a news article. Basically, you’re getting drinking money, plus experience and maybe a line on your resume (if you’re willing to admit that you wrote about anal sex).
8 years ago at 11:19 amWait, they pay the other freelancers? I just get a sticker from Jared for every 5 columns.
8 years ago at 2:34 pmThen you’re overpaid.
8 years ago at 5:34 pm“The sites aren’t going anywhere.”
Damnit.
8 years ago at 10:01 amIt’s been pretty obvious (all the adds) they are making an effort to move more to the clothing lines and away from online content. Good for business. Sucks for those of us who are stuck glued to our cubical chairs all fucking day.
8 years ago at 12:36 pmToo Long Didn’t Listen, are they canning it or what?
8 years ago at 10:04 amSo are you guys gonna be selling RIP TFM shirts when this site invetiably dies?
8 years ago at 10:05 amInevitably*** FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
8 years ago at 10:05 amDo they address exactly why the full-time writers got canned? I’m not gonna listen to it, but if someone else could that’d be great.
8 years ago at 10:06 amOh wait, there’s a link to a written statement from Madison in the description.
8 years ago at 10:07 amThat still doesn’t explain shit
8 years ago at 10:20 amCan someone summarize this shit? I only looked at the podcasts when boosh was featured.
8 years ago at 10:07 amSummarize Madison’s statement for you all…
“We had to consolidate responsibilities in order to better manage the company”. “Fuck it”.
8 years ago at 10:13 amYeah, this basically sums it up
8 years ago at 10:19 amDoes this mean no more Exec Board?
8 years ago at 10:59 amThe most shocking revelation from the podcast is that Bacon has a girlfriend.
8 years ago at 11:28 amShe probably looks like triggly puff
8 years ago at 11:45 amAnd they have “lots of sex” which means 3 times in a night apparently. Rookie numbers.
8 years ago at 12:08 pmMore than that is just work. Besides, who has time for that? Get a hobby.
8 years ago at 12:25 pmShit, after two times I’m tapped out and just want to go to bed.
8 years ago at 2:00 pmWhat minute mark?
8 years ago at 2:10 pm“The things we did wrong lead us to a situation where certain areas of the business just weren’t performing at a sufficient level of financial viability.”
This is what happens when you make a shitty movie
8 years ago at 10:19 amBoosh is the reason these podcasts were funny
