HFP

[TurdBomber]

Inviting your critics into the building and blackmailing them with access is the surest, most effective way to control and silence them. Seen this a thousand times. It's about protecting the brand.

Prediction: HFP guys will do fine for awhile, and build up a dependency on access, under the watchful eye of upper campus. First time they step out of line, the access chain will be yanked hard, to remind them who's boss. That's when they'll find out what they're really made of and how much freedom they have.

I like the show, but I can't see how it avoids morphing into a milquetoast production if it has to comply with dictates of upper campus. Best of luck to HTBMC & Co. He's earned the opportunity. But I see heavy String?s attached.

It's Chest's show. He puts the mos effort in and has the right to do what he wants with his show.

I feel uneasy about it, but I enjoy podcasting with the fellas. It's an enjoyable hobby for me. The line about no upper campus to cater to made me cringe because that's pretty much what is happening.

This thread did make me think and care. I didn't know the divorce would be so public. I feel like my parents divorced and now nobody wants me.

I dont think @HeretoBeatmyChest really ever actually understood this place or most of its posters

@RoadDawg55 You're one of my favorite posters here, I would meet you behind the 7-11 on aurora for a quick scissor session

But we all know that there is zero chance that the UW athletic department lets you continue to say things like "Fuck the women's bball team. I can't wait for UConn to beat them by 50.", post a profanity laced rant after a fucktard 4th quarter loss, or troll tequila about him fucktardedly defending Smith or Peterson.

They will first put pressure on you to cut it out, if you dont comply they will put pressure on Chest to control you or he will lose his access, either you will be forced to comply under your own will or they will blackmail you with Chest's podcast destruction.

I don't think it's about what I post. They aren't reading every post. I guess the AD aren't fans of HH.

What I find incredibly stupid about the whole situation was there was absolutely nothing for UW to be upset about in regards to the podcasts before this one where the line was drawn.

Would love to have @TierbsHsotBoobs weigh in.

I'll wait.

I hope this breakup brings our boobs back.

How about we? trade Tequilla for RoadDawg and then give RD his own podcast as compensation.

Nah. Drinking Pods are the best, and Tequila's a pleasant enough slurring drunk to listen to. I suspect Roady's one of those mean, "Go Fuck Yourselves" - chin on chest drunks who'd be bashing the mic with his forehead and unintelligible after 5 shots.

Likely, but perhaps no more. Somewhere, Taps is being played, Roady's locker is being cleaned and disinfected, and his last eternal words before the fall are resonating throughout the troops,

I'm not worried about Gaskin getting his carries. He going to have a big year.

I want to see Petersen win a game by doing what's necessary vs what he would ideally do. It's something we haven't seen these first two years. That's where a lot of frustration about his scheme and play calling comes from.

When Connor Cook was hurt, Michigan State didn't throw the ball unless necessary and beat Ohio State on the road. Alabama gave Henry the ball 40-45 times when they needed to. There were games Stanford only threw 10-15 while Hogan (a future pro) was their QB.

I've got one foot on board, I like the general development, but I also don't forget the fuckery we have seen the past two years. The Apple Cup win doesn't cut it.

This is the ultimate Friday sacrifice.

I keep waiting for the April fools shit joke but not getting it.

 

[jecornel]

I think you can all rest easy and realize roadie isn't going anywhere.

Roadie is a HH lifer.

Roadie is a HH lifer.

But will we ever hear or read poetry like "fuckery" while latched upon Jen's udders? Methinks not.

Sorry man....Cornell and you are at least somewhat complicit in this.

I get this bored can be a bit much....the cliques, the nerd shit, the monotonous jokes etc., but it is a place for relative freedom. This bored helped launch the pod and I feel like you guys are turning your back on it. Commercial radio guys have to do this sort of thing to keep their jobs in many cases, but it's not a career for you guys unless we're missing something. The UW AD has been shit for 25 years...run by people like Babs and Todd Turner. They don't deserve much respect until they place a real man like Lude back in there.

 

[TurdBomber]

This hurts me more than you, HFP guys.

I just want to take this opportunity to welcome @HeretoBeatmyChest, @jecornel, and @RoadDawg55 to the club. Sure all this "access" comes with a price but it's really great to be a program insider. Honestly as long as you don't ever say anything negative, slightly controversial, or interesting you pretty much get left alone. Those "I Bark For Sark" free t-shirts are still a favorite in my house, but that's just one of the many beni's. Just try not to sit next to Fetters during any press conferences. His personal hygiene is questionable and he usually smells like putrid cheese.

Now that you are part of the club, I've got some room in my foursome for a 1:00 tee time on Saturday at the club. You guys want in? I've got a nice merlot that drinks like a cab set aside for us in the clubhouse afterwards.

I've also got my technicians scheduling your complementary Dish installs for this week so you can enjoy all the quality programming, including the Pac 12 Network!

As long as I can be part of belly laughs in the media room....I can die in peace.

Like an idiot, I listened to about six or seven minutes.

What the fuck Chest, women's fucking basketball? What the fuck are you doing dude? Jesus Christ. Did the public relations fag wearing skinny jeans with a tie in the UWAD tell you to mention them or something? I'm done.

 

[H_D]

Still waiting for:

"It's sad to see how far @HeretoBeatmyChest and his crew have fallen."

I met James and Chest at the Tiki. They're good dudes. Good Huskies. I guess it just hurts because that podcast is what got me super into this godforsaken place. Chest would go on these hilarious spaz rants and talk mad shit about the fucktarded AD, doogs, Dawgman, and the like. He'd be all over the place and it was glorious. I was so happy that there existed people with the same opinions on the AD as I had (I thought it insane how years and years of dreck would not only be barred from criticism, but dawgman and uwdp doogs would savagely attack anyone who dare question the horrific decision making and dream of returning to greatness), I quickly became a huge fan and made a point of always replying to the HFP threads, giving feedback, and calling in a few times.

That podcast with Jude killed me a little bit. Boring. Sycophantic. Uninspired. Same minutiae we get anywhere else. I was in denial but that really was when the show died

RIP. Quite a ride. I doubt I'll be listening.

p.s. boobs pls come back d00d you are needed in the worst way

Deserves own thread

It's mostly been said already but I'll weigh in.

All kidding aside, I've been a fan of the HFP for awhile. The production value was shit, but that was part of the charm. Listening to the awkward pauses, food being eaten, dropped calls, shitty audio, and playing "was that a fart in the background?" every episode was well worth it to get the uncensored rants and level headed and honest talk. I may not have agreed with everything being said, but I agreed with most of it and appreciated the honest conversation that you couldn't hear anywhere else.

Looking back, the beginning of the end for me was the Azeem Victor's (other) dad interview. What could have been a honest, unfiltered, uncensored, discussion turned out to be a 99% 81% vanilla interview that could have been done (better) on any mainstream sports talk discussion. I came in expecting some interesting questions and answers not found anywhere else. It didn't exactly deliver. Calling him Mr. Victor repeatedly would have been funny if done ironically but it came across more as more fanboy sucking up than anything. The fact that there was LPT levels of self-adulation afterwards for that worthless screed should have put up a lot of red flags for everyone.

As others have pointed out, and I agree with, the "jump the shark" moment for the HFP was the Chris Landon and Adam Jude episode circle jerk. There was no substance there. What should have been a great opportunity to get in a couple of Cheetos, Mtn. Dew, and Call of Duty jabs while still discussing interesting football turned into something that could have easily been a segment on the "Guys from Dawgman.com" KJR broadcast. Low tweak I know, but that episode left me wanting. The Jimmy Lake interview was more of the same. By that time the dumpster was fully ablaze.

I tried listening to the last cast, despite my better judgement, but was shaking and vomiting after about 30 seconds into the "Lady Dawgs" talk and stupid shit about how maybe Neighbors should coach both the men's and women's teams....tehe! I turned it off.

I'm afraid I can't be #NebraskaClassy like @DerekJohnson because I'm legitimately disappointed I won't be able to listen to Roadie's sometimes hysterical rants after a shitastic loss to an Arizona team and Chest's analysis of Sagren, SRS, or whatever the fuck it is he uses to prove a point. But whatever their reasons for taking their show in this new direction, it's ultimately up to those guys and I wish them well. There is certainly an audience for that kind of show, some people will pay 10.95 a month for that type of thing. It's just not for me.
