    My absolute favorite part of this is that they also own his supplement business now.

      I spent about ten minutes trying to figure out if this was just an Onion headline … only to realize it is indeed an Onion headline … this is beautiful

        Everything about this brings me joy. I was hoping it would be Cards Against Humanity, but the more I think about it, the more I think this is even better.

          I was hoping it would be Knowledge Fight and they’d just subtly transform the content, so as to wean the existing audience into actual facts (e: Dan does a helluvan Alex impression), but the schadenfreude here is very nice.

      His supplement business was under the same business ownership? That’s preposterously stupid and hilarious.

        I’m not exactly shocked he was that stupid, but yeah, that made me laugh the hardest.

          He’s been very transparent in his attempts to move stuff around, telling his audience exactly what he’s been up to.

          He kept his two income streams tied together, so that when one ran into trouble it took the other one down with it. He could have just as easily kept the business separate and potentially been able to keep one of the income streams working when the shit hit the fan.

        Isn’t it usually sugar? (With a big helping of snake oil.)
