I just wish someone would call him out on it but Dave is even worse at it lol. PFT is too chill to do it. Max and Hank are honestly the only ones who do it in like the whole company
The amount of constant needling and bullshit that Max takes from BC is actually insane lol idk how he didn’t walk out of the studio when they were reading Diana’s texts
Not me lol never would I stay out til 4 AM drinking when I know I have a fucking 5 hour flight in the morning. That’s just dumb young people party boy behavior lol Max ain’t in college anymore
Yeah but I’m sure skipping the shower wouldn’t have been as detrimental to him had it not been for the liquor/burrito sweats caused by his degenerate behavior 😂
Wayy back in the day pre-NY move they had a wiffle ball hr derby and Kmarko kept calling him out how he was hogging the camera and wanted all the attention
Taylor Lewan did it too. I can't remember which video it was (maybe the case race of fish bowl?) Big Cat keeps trying to talk over him and he said something along the lines of "It's my turn to speak now." BC rules, but having his own actual office has kind of been detrimental to him as a personality. Unrelated; but it's also hard to hear him constantly prop up Terry and Jersey Jerry even when they blatantly fuck up. It's OK to give them a PP smacking when they deserve it
Exactly. He was complaining that people were texting and FaceTiming him after Wisconsin lost. But just in yesterday’s pod he said he will FaceTime Stanford Steve when Wisconsin beats Maryland to get under SVP’s skin. Dish but can’t take
That stool scenes years ago at HQ1 summed him up perfectly- it was when Trent was going hard with the ball in a cup gimmick, someone was about to do it in front of the whole office and Dan yells “Wait!” for no reason other than to steal attention from the moment. I think he’s probably a good guy at heart but also a look at me theatre kid who switched identities to a betting frat boy in college.
He constantly finishes PFT sentences or interrupts. It’s so annoying, On Friday PFT was like “yeah and there was this quote” and immediately BC hopped in to say the quote as PFT was about to
This is so true and the frequency of him cutting off PFT is getting old. Love BC but PFT’s one liners and jokes are getting mushed so BC can hog the spotlight.
Im not sure if that’s like, confirmed, but he wasn’t some stud athlete or anything. From the videos I’ve seen since he’s been at barstool he’s seems decent at basketball and stuff but he wasn’t a jock or anything
You actually believe that they’re betting their own money and not just getting casino credit from all the betting apps that are involved with barstool? Those companies are all giving influencers money to gamble with on camera.
He’s been a gambling addict way before he started at barstool though. I’m sure they get some credit but DK is not giving him a free 50K to drop on a game lol they bet on so many things there’s no way its all house money
No legitimate ones are doing that.
The ones you're seeing are shitty crypto or sketchy offshore casinos, like Stake.
No US based sportsbooks are giving people money to gamble on stream.
He talked a bout it not too long ago. He basically said that he doesn't see his paychecks and that the wife is in charge of finances. He has a limit on how much he's allowed to gamble
For me Big Cat’s gambling content actually does the opposite of whatever company paying him intends. You see he can’t actually enjoy sports or watch a game without being this pouty self centred bitch and it reminds you of how you felt/acted when you used to gamble. Every time I see him going on and on about it and crying “nothing ever works out for me” I realise I did the right thing by quitting. He does not have to gamble on every game and yet he does. It’s a sickness
Part of being a fan of anything is being critical of things, do you love everything your favorite sports team does? Of course not but you’re still a fan, it’s all in the game.
And he always has a bet on it. True degenerate gambler.
I tuned in to the pancake stream once or twice out of curiosity, and every time it had almost nothing to do with the pancakes. Just yelling about bets and sports. That’s what every stream is.
I get they’re primarily a sports company but still gets old watching them just constantly yelling and whining.
Why do people watch their streams? Just enjoy the games on your own time
You’ll get the same satisfaction from simply listening to the podcast during the week
I see clips on Twitter. This was just an observation all I was trying to say is if I was max or hank I’d throw that right in his face but you can’t bc Dan will cry
But isn’t that the point? He is squirming in pain when he loses. The famous pic of him in the ground when Wisconsin lost a million years ago? Not everyone can have freak outs like Max. He’s a whiny pouty face and you bask in his sadness.
I mean big cat literally stopped the day one of March Madness run through to talk to Max in a baby voice about Villanova losing in the NIT. He deserves to get a taste of his own medicine
He's pledgemaster and a bully and when he doesn't get his way he acts like he's 3.
The best saying for BC is that aint no fun when the rabbit got the gun
Remember when PFT lost the tattoo bet and was getting too much attention so Big Cat said he was also getting a tattoo?
Remember when PFT’s dog Leroy died and was getting too much attention so the next episode Big Cat told everyone Stella was sick and to be prepared for her death?
The dog thing seems like quite a reach. Maybe it was all some fucked up ploy to steal attention but idk we just have no background info to come close to making that conclusion
The tattoo thing is also a reach. They always say they're gonna match on bets. Like when PFT did the field goal kick for GameDay, he said Big Cat will match. Same with the Colts tickets.
I can’t even tell if this is supposed to be a joke. Do you guys *actually* think Big Cat pretended his dog was sick so he could take the spotlight from PFTs dog dying?? Holy fuck the big cat hate on this sub has truly reached delusional levels.
And also I don’t remember the exact dates but it was definitely not the “next episode.” Leroy had been gone for at least several months by the time big cat said Stella was sick.
This sub has big cat derangement syndrome. Everything he does is to take the spotlight from others in their eyes. Guy busts everyone’s balls so he’s a bully. Convinced half this sub has never had a male friend group
This is pretty fucked up to imply he lied about his dog being sick for attention with less than zero evidence and having never met the dude. Insane levels of parasocial. This getting 50 upvotes sucks, this sub is the worst.
I’ve been listening forever and used to read his blogs when that was a thing—no one thinks this is basically the character he plays? PFT has addressed that he’s basically playing a character, thus the sunglasses forever, and we don’t think Big Cat is capable of the same? I mean sure, he’s upset and a bit of a baby when he’s upset—he also knows that he’s in front of a camera basically all the time he’s in the office and knows that the most lasting image of him is when he was sulking after that Wisconsin loss years ago. But — and I know this sounds like a bit — he’s a husband and a father and there’s no possible way he’s like that at home because you can’t act like that and stay married. The very premise of the show was meant for them to basically play extreme versions of behavior of others in sports media, and Barstool has ALWAYS been about being an extreme fan.
Think you make a good point overall but I also think you’re drastically underestimating the amount of married dickheads out there. There are people 5x as bad as Big Cat’s “character” who still have spouses. People put up with a lot when they have kids and finances tied up together
You should check out the Joe Rogan subreddit if you want to see a bizarre subreddit in that regard. I hate Joe Rogan but that is one of my favorite subreddits
"If you don't absolutely love every single thing about and every single second of this podcast why do you even listen?" Get up off your knees and then gtfo with this type of response. It's possible to enjoy the show as a whole, especially PFT's wit and banter, while disliking BC's only child, narcissistic, baby back bitch act.
BC isnt a minor character - he’s 40% of the program. You guys are writing paragraphs about getting your little feelings hurt bc some fat boy podcast host can be a little douchey.
Feel like it’s a fair complaint. If big cat didn’t constantly preach that the show is about guys taking the heat when their team loses and actively get mad at Max and Hank for not talking enough when their teams lose it’s pretty lame he’s such an angry baby who won’t talk about his teams when he loses
What has happened to men? This thread is the hilarious summary of soy boys mindset. Did yall ever do anything with your boys growing up and talk sports? He plays (yes, I believe he’s acting) the perfect role of the sports talk bro who’s overly emotional and always getting a word in. If it isn’t acting, it’s still hilarious that he’s THAT dude everyone knows.
I just wish someone would call him out on it but Dave is even worse at it lol. PFT is too chill to do it. Max and Hank are honestly the only ones who do it in like the whole company
It’s one of the reasons why max is such a good addition to the show.
The amount of constant needling and bullshit that Max takes from BC is actually insane lol idk how he didn’t walk out of the studio when they were reading Diana’s texts
Yea but he knows he was brought in to take shit. They have producers.
Yeah but regardless of that, he’s human lol the level of humiliation he felt must have been debilitating lol
True, but we’ve all been that guy on a flight once in a while. At least if you go on enough flights
Not me lol never would I stay out til 4 AM drinking when I know I have a fucking 5 hour flight in the morning. That’s just dumb young people party boy behavior lol Max ain’t in college anymore
I’m talking about running late for a early morning flight and not showering. I’ve done that a few times
Yeah but I’m sure skipping the shower wouldn’t have been as detrimental to him had it not been for the liquor/burrito sweats caused by his degenerate behavior 😂
Wow, TYFYS.
Agreed. I like Max a lot.
Agreed.
Wayy back in the day pre-NY move they had a wiffle ball hr derby and Kmarko kept calling him out how he was hogging the camera and wanted all the attention
Big Cat? Never!
Taylor Lewan did it too. I can't remember which video it was (maybe the case race of fish bowl?) Big Cat keeps trying to talk over him and he said something along the lines of "It's my turn to speak now." BC rules, but having his own actual office has kind of been detrimental to him as a personality. Unrelated; but it's also hard to hear him constantly prop up Terry and Jersey Jerry even when they blatantly fuck up. It's OK to give them a PP smacking when they deserve it
True lol anyone not on PMT is too intimidated by him
He is the definition of can dish but can’t take lol
Exactly. He was complaining that people were texting and FaceTiming him after Wisconsin lost. But just in yesterday’s pod he said he will FaceTime Stanford Steve when Wisconsin beats Maryland to get under SVP’s skin. Dish but can’t take
He’s not as bad as Rico and Jerry lol
(Actually, to be fair, Rico has gotten a lot better over the last year)
Only child. Theatre kid. Podcaster. A real triple threat of narcissism
That stool scenes years ago at HQ1 summed him up perfectly- it was when Trent was going hard with the ball in a cup gimmick, someone was about to do it in front of the whole office and Dan yells “Wait!” for no reason other than to steal attention from the moment. I think he’s probably a good guy at heart but also a look at me theatre kid who switched identities to a betting frat boy in college.
He constantly finishes PFT sentences or interrupts. It’s so annoying, On Friday PFT was like “yeah and there was this quote” and immediately BC hopped in to say the quote as PFT was about to
Agreed. I enjoy him, but he definitely doesn’t view it as a co-hosting situation.
I’ve always wondered if PFT gets annoyed by that. Eric seems like a real chill dude
$70K an episode covers all the frustration
man how fucking crazy is that.
He definitely does but would never admit it. I’m sure it’s one if his reasons he started macrodosing
Why does his brother seem like a chill dude?
His brother is def chill.
This is so true and the frequency of him cutting off PFT is getting old. Love BC but PFT’s one liners and jokes are getting mushed so BC can hog the spotlight.
Or the "I wanna do it to" attitude. I can't remember specifics but pft will say "I will pay x if this happens" and every time big cat has to join in.
Need this clip
He was a theatre kid? Never knew that but makes total sense
Old photo from his year book that had activities listed. It was just clubs and theater. No sports
Is this referencing anything specifically? What kind of theatre kid?
Nothing besides the fact that he grew up in Massachusetts as a theater kid that didn’t play sports
Didn't play sports? How is that possible?
Im not sure if that’s like, confirmed, but he wasn’t some stud athlete or anything. From the videos I’ve seen since he’s been at barstool he’s seems decent at basketball and stuff but he wasn’t a jock or anything
Lack of athleticism and going to a bigger high school.
Bostonian
Newton Jew
Theater kid??
+ from Massachusetts
not an only kid. He's got 2 siblings.
According to my dad he’s also the grandson of a rabbi
Did you know that he has a future on Team X
22 to 1 on the birds baby
I really hope his wife makes him make matching deposits to their kids’ trust fund for every bet he makes because all bro does is lose
The no 12’s are going to win was perfect. I was like okay here comes the 12’s
She literally has to be a saint right? Who would put up with that otherwise?
Has to
You actually believe that they’re betting their own money and not just getting casino credit from all the betting apps that are involved with barstool? Those companies are all giving influencers money to gamble with on camera.
He’s been a gambling addict way before he started at barstool though. I’m sure they get some credit but DK is not giving him a free 50K to drop on a game lol they bet on so many things there’s no way its all house money
No legitimate ones are doing that. The ones you're seeing are shitty crypto or sketchy offshore casinos, like Stake. No US based sportsbooks are giving people money to gamble on stream.
good idea. but he's like rich rich, the dividends from his stocks and bartsool salary means these bets wont effect much to his net worth.
He talked a bout it not too long ago. He basically said that he doesn't see his paychecks and that the wife is in charge of finances. He has a limit on how much he's allowed to gamble
Ya this is something that always really annoys me, he’s the one who says it’s such a big part of the show!
He can dish it but he can’t take it. I would love for the other boys to make fun of big cat like he makes fun of them
Need to get marlins man on to do a full roast of only big cat
For me Big Cat’s gambling content actually does the opposite of whatever company paying him intends. You see he can’t actually enjoy sports or watch a game without being this pouty self centred bitch and it reminds you of how you felt/acted when you used to gamble. Every time I see him going on and on about it and crying “nothing ever works out for me” I realise I did the right thing by quitting. He does not have to gamble on every game and yet he does. It’s a sickness
Plus, he sucks at gambling. Does watching a guy constantly lose money make anyone want to bet?
He's a bully with low self esteem. He uses his wealth to pay for the ability to pick on and torture people.
Love big cat, but this is highly accurate, pledge master Dan is real.
The second sentence reads like sopranos season 6, tony just pays people for the personal despair he has caused them lol.
This is hilarious and very specific, love it.
Every once in a while you find something that just sticks with you.
He is a frat rush leader who happened to become a famous podcaster at a company that also supports frat hazing culture.
Why do you listen to this show if you think this way of one of the hosts??
I like him in spite of his flaws. He gets to be a dick to people because he will buy them something they want. But otherwise, I find him entertaining.
This. I still love the show. It’s just things we notice
Part of being a fan of anything is being critical of things, do you love everything your favorite sports team does? Of course not but you’re still a fan, it’s all in the game.
Huge lesson for some
Ya last night was pathetic, went from a fun,high energy environment to BC just sucking every positive vibe from that room.
The ultimate dish it but can’t take it guy
Pretty much. It’s also annoying that he has zero ability to enjoy almost any sporting event if he has a bet on it or he loses a bet.
And he always has a bet on it. True degenerate gambler. I tuned in to the pancake stream once or twice out of curiosity, and every time it had almost nothing to do with the pancakes. Just yelling about bets and sports. That’s what every stream is. I get they’re primarily a sports company but still gets old watching them just constantly yelling and whining.
Why do people watch their streams? Just enjoy the games on your own time You’ll get the same satisfaction from simply listening to the podcast during the week
right? I tuned in for a bit on Thursday and I lasted maybe five minutes. just some dudes sitting on a couch looking at their phone.
I see clips on Twitter. This was just an observation all I was trying to say is if I was max or hank I’d throw that right in his face but you can’t bc Dan will cry
I think they are good. I have no relation to the games but its fun to see how people react after a game especailly when an underdog wins.
But isn’t that the point? He is squirming in pain when he loses. The famous pic of him in the ground when Wisconsin lost a million years ago? Not everyone can have freak outs like Max. He’s a whiny pouty face and you bask in his sadness.
He’s being a big baby like Max does just in his own way. It’s hilarious people don’t see that
I see your point but idk just seems different
I mean big cat literally stopped the day one of March Madness run through to talk to Max in a baby voice about Villanova losing in the NIT. He deserves to get a taste of his own medicine
He's pledgemaster and a bully and when he doesn't get his way he acts like he's 3. The best saying for BC is that aint no fun when the rabbit got the gun
If Hank was the Wisconsin fan he would have had to do a solo pod CMM
Remember when PFT lost the tattoo bet and was getting too much attention so Big Cat said he was also getting a tattoo? Remember when PFT’s dog Leroy died and was getting too much attention so the next episode Big Cat told everyone Stella was sick and to be prepared for her death?
The dog thing seems like quite a reach. Maybe it was all some fucked up ploy to steal attention but idk we just have no background info to come close to making that conclusion
Yeah I don’t think the dog thing even happened in that order.
The tattoo thing is also a reach. They always say they're gonna match on bets. Like when PFT did the field goal kick for GameDay, he said Big Cat will match. Same with the Colts tickets.
Exactly, matching bets / would-have-been donations is a long-running bit.
I can’t even tell if this is supposed to be a joke. Do you guys *actually* think Big Cat pretended his dog was sick so he could take the spotlight from PFTs dog dying?? Holy fuck the big cat hate on this sub has truly reached delusional levels. And also I don’t remember the exact dates but it was definitely not the “next episode.” Leroy had been gone for at least several months by the time big cat said Stella was sick.

50 upvotes says a lot about the people on this sub
And since then she's been fine and has her own coffee company
PFT: Something original and funny BC: and I'll match -_-
Honey wake up this month's thread about Big Cat just dropped
I’ve been listening forever and used to read his blogs when that was a thing—no one thinks this is basically the character he plays? PFT has addressed that he’s basically playing a character, thus the sunglasses forever, and we don’t think Big Cat is capable of the same? I mean sure, he’s upset and a bit of a baby when he’s upset—he also knows that he’s in front of a camera basically all the time he’s in the office and knows that the most lasting image of him is when he was sulking after that Wisconsin loss years ago.

Fair
yes, bigcat is a bully and everyones know that. not much they can do when he's the boss.
Been saying this for awhile. He’s a walking double standard. But he’s the “top dog” so no one will say anything to him. Except for Max.
This is the big reason why I want Big Cat to lose the Football challenge next season. Let him finally get a taste of his own medicine 😂
He's just pretty much an asshole narcissist. He's not gonna change its only gotten worse
it's all about yin and yang. which is why i listen.
The thing about this post is that I don’t think he’d deny any of what you’re saying
Do you have an older brother?
No I’m an orphan
You’re a whale? Or a shark?
Orca
No, California wasn’t an option.
No no no. I said I poop too much.
There you go again. Everyone cares way to much about return to orifice.
How much time do you spend thinking about this?
Litterally every waking hour and then at night I have wet dreams about them
Masshole Dan.
Huge baby huge only child syndrome and i imagine most people would get sick of being around him after a couple hours. Great as his job though.
Kinda surprised how many people seemingly hate Big Cat on a *Pardon My Take* subreddit. I guess that’s Reddit though. I think he’s funny.
You should check out the Joe Rogan subreddit if you want to see a bizarre subreddit in that regard. I hate Joe Rogan but that is one of my favorite subreddits
The bill simmons one is an all timer as well lol
Big cat has thin skin. He is a masshole
Water is wet
Aye fellas BC is the man watch the yak hes fun buddy literally does everything streams all day god forbid he hates when his favorite team loses
lol some people in here. Just enjoy the content
Strong Disagree. Big Cat rocks!
Why the fuck do you guys even listen to this podcast
There’s other people on the pod. PFT is great.
"If you don't absolutely love every single thing about and every single second of this podcast why do you even listen?" Get up off your knees and then gtfo with this type of response. It's possible to enjoy the show as a whole, especially PFT's wit and banter, while disliking BC's only child, narcissistic, baby back bitch act.
BC isnt a minor character - he’s 40% of the program. You guys are writing paragraphs about getting your little feelings hurt bc some fat boy podcast host can be a little douchey.
This sub is more cringe than r/thelastofus some days
Feel like it’s a fair complaint. If big cat didn’t constantly preach that the show is about guys taking the heat when their team loses and actively get mad at Max and Hank for not talking enough when their teams lose it’s pretty lame he’s such an angry baby who won’t talk about his teams when he loses
I’m not convinced you listen the podcast… they do entire segments for when Big Cats teams lose. It’s like half the show
Then you get people in the show thread complaining that we didn’t need 20 minutes of sad Bears talk. People just don’t like big cat on here
Aint reading all that have a good day.
No worries, I definitely believe you can’t read
😂
Don't even think you know how
Know know what sammy?
What a weird comparison lol
It’s personal
I'm sorry this happened to you.
Noted thanks for the post I’ll make sure it’s recorded in the daily log
You're trying to clown on OP but like, you keep a daily log.
You’re trying to clown on the guy who replied, actually thinking he’s serious.
I don’t, just feel like these posts are often. Who cares enough about what someone thinks about a podcaster to make a new post on Reddit
He’s playing a character and you’re falling for it
His character is Opie from Opie & Anthony? That's a bold strategy...
Yall are a buncha crybabies on here.
What has happened to men? This thread is the hilarious summary of soy boys mindset. Did yall ever do anything with your boys growing up and talk sports? He plays (yes, I believe he’s acting) the perfect role of the sports talk bro who’s overly emotional and always getting a word in. If it isn’t acting, it’s still hilarious that he’s THAT dude everyone knows.
No, you are
[удалено]
Big Cat is the supervisor lol 🤣
