[Queefer Sutherland]

After Amazon already paid them $80 million.

The popular interview podcast hosted by Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, and Sean Hayes is leaving Amazon and joining SiriusXM.

And not a single penny for Nana!

100 fucking million. For a podcast i’ve NEVER heard of. From faggot actors I would NEVER want to hear from. What kind of scheme are they running? Seriously. How do they just have disposable money to throw at content like this. Even if you have a billion subscribers you can’t possibly even have 1/50 of people listening to just ONE of the products. I just dont understand.

Podcasts ruined western civilization

Still a better investment than Jim and Sam

 

[TheGhostOfBernellTrammell]

My mom listens to this so its probably a boomer thing.

 

[LingerLonger]

Sirius XM must be making insane political donations to avoid any money laundering investigations.

I really hope one of these lame actor faggots passed on the opportunity to take a photo with the Worm. That way, Jim has two reasons to motherfuck these ssssssssscumbags.

I hope Jim's man-wife leaves him for Jason Bateman

Money laundering

Absolutely that’s what it is. When Jews are involved you can always expect they’re doing something funky with the numbers.

Eventually it's going to come out that Sirius is a ponzi scheme that will dwarf FTX and Madoff combined.

So it’s a three year deal but they get the back archives and Sirius subscribers get the episodes a week early. New episodes still get released on every platform later on. That’s retarded. They also bought three other podcasts on that “network” as well.

I heard about it from my 30 year old sister. Will Arnett is hilarious in plenty of shit but this is not something to listen to.

It's almost identical to their Amazon deal. SXM, like Amazon, has full rights to their global ad sales. Spotify and others do the same shit with Rogan.

They are signed to CAA, so I wonder how much of a stake they have in it.

I hate Jason Bateman he must've sucked Harvey Weinstein's asshole or something

 

[FingerofGod]

They had Joe Biden on their podcast and it didn’t even break 30k views on Youtube. Very fishy.

 

[lilconnorpeterson]

A lot of hack radio stations that are on regular radio do this stuff. Put 3 celebrities together who have some "name value" and just let em' do radio. It rarely works and given that these guys best video is only 337k views I'd suggest that it isn't worth the 100 million dollars unless other numbers are significantly higher.

 

[LockedHDD__Pot]

What kind of scheme are they running?

I think SXM radios are standard in a lot of US-sold cars, so I guess they can claim to have access to x number of people (even though they probably just listen to podcasts), & sell ads on that number.
I don't know if this one will be paywalled, but I assume they try to sell the monthly fee to the otherwise captive in-car listeners, so they try getting as many celebs as poss' to appeal to the masses.

 

[PorqueDealer]

Sirius are too used to paypiggin for Stern.
They crunched the numbers and that's like 30mins a week of Howie content so they thought they were getting a good deal.
