Joey shouldn’t even mention their names after this week. It’s gotta be killing them how all the comments are for Joey minus the few “you and Gene are great now, respects fro New Zealand”

I can think of a zillion people I'd go online and mock before I got to Merlino. Borello is out of his mind. Like "Let's roll on Moscow" out of his mind.

Interested in how does the podcast business work ? He is working for/with actionparkmedia, do the hosts of such podcasts get a big signing-on fee/ advance? They are plugging merch etc. Joey is all about the money so interested to know what are the figures involved for such venture

That allegation was made during Billy Andrews trial in the early 2000’s. He was caught in her house under the bed, in his underwear. Supposedly he took her for an abortion. I have no idea how true it is but this isn’t the first time it was alleged.

What are the odds that he does a few more shows, pockets the money and tells them to sue him if they want.

Pockets what money? He probably hasn’t made much from his platform yet.

Joey goes through 100k in a 6 months, maybe faster. He’s not gonna open himself up to civil litigation to his finances by being sued for failing to live up to the contract. 100k isn’t worth the risk he’d have, in my opinion anyway.

He's goes on a podcast foe 1 hr a week. Gets a check for like 2500 bucks. He's gonna show up every week for that podcast till it ends. That's probably his easiest score in his life. He's not gonna fuck it up but it will belly up in a few months not making any money

These 2 are leveraging Merlino to get views (Merlino spend no more than 20 seconds total discussing Borello). And all rats want to label Joey one - to debase him as rat brings him to their level; everyone is really a rat so we're not that different. Frankly, Dom sounds like he has a serious speech impediment - Lenny from Of Mice and Men.

Regarding Merlino's wife, it's just desserts. Joey's reputation is that of Bill Clinton when it comes to women.

The best part for me is hawking t shirts. Whats worse? A sitting boss giving out sports picks on youtube or selling your own shirts with your face on it.
Imagine chin, selling t shirts with robes on them at the san gennaro
