[QUOTE=Rossy167;52898393]I always got the impression that the Maddox character was closer to his actual self than an actual character.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, even though I like his stuff something about how he came across never seemed quite right. But I brushed it off since it didn't go completely outside the realm of plausibility. Guess the joke's on us.
[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;52895112]Maddox is the grand daddy of comedic internet cynicism. He was extremely popular among early 2000's internet junkies.[/QUOTE]
He was funny a decade ago. Now he's just struggling to stay relevant.
i dont think maddox, the man, used to be like maddox, the internet personality. i do, however, think that being in charge of a franchise based around being "the best x in the y" has probably gone to his head after so long. i remember seeing him at sdcc a few years back and he seemed totally subdued and not at all like what i expected him to be
this was 08-09 so pretty far back

[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;52895582]i feel like becoming internet famous is a dangerous path because most people are not equipped to handle fame. there is a reason people in hollywood have agents, people to help manage their fame.[/QUOTE]
it turns some people into violent psychopaths
Maddox needs to immediately fuck off.
[QUOTE=wauterboi;52895121] I wrote a theme song for Dick Masterson's podcast called The Dick Show, and I talk to him and Asterios semi-frequently.[/QUOTE]
I just started listening to his show after he was on The Official Podcast, thats a pretty good theme you made.

He apparently got banned for telling someone that they should consume a cinder block.

To be fair, and even as a person who listens to Dick Masterson, he can be a really harsh over the internet with comments. I thought he deserved his ban and will probably fare better on Gab.
However, Twitter has done absolutely nothing to Maddox or the ex, and the ex literally has a public document that explains exactly how and why she has a restraining order.
It's not because of the cinderblock thing - it just happened around the same time so people assumed it was that.
Dick brought up Maddox and his buddies [I]a lot[/I] on Twitter - pretty much always in response to something they were actively spreading or saying. For example, there's a pornstar buddy of Maddox's that was expressing how awful she thought Dick was on Twitter. His response were a couple of things like "How much does it cost for me to be able to take a shit on you?" and something about AIDs. It's stuff that makes people uncomfortable, so I understand if that's not something Twitter wants to serve as their experience - hell that's something I don't want to see either.
But as far as things go, I'd say that's the worst Dick Masterson ever gets. It's shittalking in response to people provoking or bullshitting him and he never, ever holds back in that context.
I love listening to TBDIU and I've been featured a few times on the voicemail stuff but you can tell with a lot of episodes that Maddox has started to shift more right I guess to capture a bigger audience but yeah
Him moving from Utah to LA was a bad decision

The beloved lawyer reads up on it
I am having a hard time seeing this go anywhere in the near future.
I told you guys Maddox was a rancid cunt and none of you believed me.
Hopefully he sues himself right into the poorhouse. Fuck him

He's already there with at least 2 or 3 roommates.
He rolled his $30,000 advance from his book into creating Madcsat Media's website. And then he released a book that didn't do well at all.
Did Maddox tell you that the advance was 30k, or are you just saying that because Asterios said he had spent 30k on the website?
I hope he loses so I can hear a full episode of TDS, where it's only Xeon and Dick laughing while listening to [url=https://soundcloud.com/biggestproblem/maddox-lost-punk]this[/url] on repeat for 2 hours.
Maddox lost cause his problems fucking suck

I never did like him after he said "cupcakes suck".

Wasnt his book called "Fuck Whales"?
[QUOTE=AaronM202;52904636]Wasnt his book called "Fuck Whales"?[/QUOTE]
It was F*ck Whales, because he didn't think the book would sell if it had fuck in the title.

Because Asterios said it. Take that hearsay as you will.

No, it's F*ck Whales because a dickhead bought TheBestBookInTheUniverse.com and Madcucks had pre-orders for The Best Book in the Universe (by him), leading Maddox no choice but to go with that. His publisher pushed the asterisk, most likely.

Oh, and the domain points to Dick's book on Amazon
Maddox isn't great right now, but Dick Masterson was always supid.

Found this video which sums up the entire controversy in about 10 minutes.
Holy shit, I hadn't looked at any of Maddox's content in like 10 years. I had no idea he was still kicking around.
He always seemed unstable even during the "Greatest Website in the Universe" period. There were times where he'd go months without updating. Sad to see the state he's in now.
Another thing I've noticed is Maddoxs undecided view on Polyamory. In some episodes he states his experience in doing this with an unamed girl but said he couldn't follow through with it but according to the info about dick banging his ex it seemed like Maddox wanted some three-way relationship to take place
I got no problem for people doing that shit that's fine but he's always tip toed around it to the point where it makes me think he wanted some three-way with his gf and ex I guess
