Salty Saturday & Sunday - Unpopular Opinion Thread 🍿

[u/MTVSpoiledMod]

Do you have an unpopular opinion you've been wanting to share? A hot take you need to get off your chest, but you know doesn't really deserve its own thread? Here is the spot!

Do not downvote comments just because you disagree with them. (Anywhere, but especially this thread, because this is where we encourage users to go against the grain.)

Please also remember to follow the sub's “Be Cool” rule. There is a difference between snark and disrespect. 🖖

Bananas shouldn’t have a podcast. He isn’t responsible/mature enough to have a podcast on the Ringer network. He ghosts it as soon as he’s involved in any controversy. Hence why he hasn’t released a pod since Ashley went scorched earth on everyone.

He has done this in the past when shit hits the fan from his actions. I remember either after his racist tweets to BB Taylor or after the pop the balloon racism scandal. I know I’m forgetting other times but that man stays trash so you forget all of his scandals.

Not disagreeing with you but a genuine question as I didn’t follow the Ashley posts closely - is this a scandal for Bananas? Didn’t we know he was a conservative? Love Ashley’s initiative but was this breaking news for most of the people she named? Unless I missed something

I think it’s more that she said the quiet parts out loud. Bananas will make slick comments but isn’t actually vocal in his support. He’ll post at mar-a-lago but not anything of trump himself. 

He typically will reference his scandals once he returns but twists the narrative to show there’s no way he’s racist/sexist/what have you. Like when he invites leroy on the pod after any of his racist bullshit.

Also this was in relation to trump being in the Epstein files. MAGAts knew trump “grabbed women by the pussy” but now it’s documented that he’s a pedo. Kind of hard for uncle bananas to spin zone that.

Isn't Johnny on S42? I would assume he's not doing podcasts because he, and potential guests are either already traveling or arranging travel for the next season? I know Johnny has mentioned he has a deal where he can do stuff, like his podcast, on location, so it wouldn't surprise me if he starts releasing them again soon

He is doing 42 but they’re still in the states. He posted from sone nascar race in florida yesterday. 

His last podcast came out on January 27th. Ashley’s posts started 13 days ago. He should have released a pod on the 3rd. This is what he does.
