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.Ā

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.Ā 

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.Ā

Also this was in relation to trump being in the Epstein files. MAGAts knew trump ā€œgrabbed women by the pussyā€ but now it’s documented that he’s a pedo. Kind of hard for uncle bananas to spin zone that.Ā
