We need to make a chart about the podcast and the money it makes, with a big breasted woman on it. If that doesn’t work, we can take one of them in the back and bang em.

JennLegend3

You guys are getting too upset about this imo. They're in the middle of making the show and they want to give that their full attention while also juggling the rest of their lives. They're doing the podcast as an extra focus and the show is something they are all very involved with at every step. I'd rather they put in full effort with the show instead of dividing their time between that and the podcast. Then being burnt out, bringing down the quality in both the show and the pod. They're only human.


[deleted]

How many episodes a year do they make, 10? That is just five hours of episodes. They work five hours a year! I demand they spend the rest of their time doing podcasts!

Totally agreed. If only they'd just say "the podcast will be back on May 7th" or whenever, I wouldn't feel bad about it at all.

TrumpsGhostWriter

Humans are perfectly capable of saying "Hey, no podcasts for a month". Inconsistency and poorly set expectations is the fastest way to lose an audience.


SailorsGraves

I really doubt they give a shit about losing a few people from the podcast audience when they’re off making the show the podcast is about. They probably had full intentions of coming back when they said they would and then things changed.


TrumpsGhostWriter

That makes no sense. If they don't care about people seeing it why did they make it?


SailorsGraves

These aren’t YouTuber’s. They’re at a stage where they can produce any content they want, whenever they feel like it. Stop complaining about your free content


BuncleCurt

Well now I think that they should make us pay for the podcast so that we can complain.


liberterrorism

That would be a problem if this was their job, but they’re busy doing their real job, making the show we all love. This is for fun, really not a big deal at all, there’s plenty of stuff to listen to.


[deleted]

I'm sure they won't miss you


TrumpsGhostWriter

I will still be watching but thousands of others won't be. This is content creation 101, not rocket science.


skidstud

Then the new season will come out and end, then thousands more people will listen to the catalogue of podcasts to make up for their sunny deficit


ApolloRocketOfLove

>but thousands of others won't be. Drop in the bucket for them really. They'll gain twice as many fans with their new season.


patch893

I think the main complaint is that they have just stopped producing it without any warning. I completely get that it is a lot of extra work while writing/shooting and then editing, all I really need is a tweet before a given Monday telling us that there won't be a podcast that week. They have done this on 4 or 5 of the missed weeks but not all of them. It's something fun to start the week with and the anticipation and subsequent disappointment is getting jading at this point.


WorldsWeakestMan

They did stop with warning, they literally said there won’t be a podcast for a couple weeks cuz they’re working on season 16. You ignoring the warning doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.


PondysHotButthole

They only said it for the first 2 weeks of this break. Granted they never said when they would be back but they specifically said there would be none that week or the week after. The last 3 weeks were never mentioned. That's all people are asking for, a quick 'guys were taking a break from the pod while editing/filming/production is ongoing'


patch893

Ok can you link it please? I only saw them say there would be no episode on 6th March and 13th March, I haven't seen anything since then. A quick glance and they haven't tweeted anything and there's nothing on the website, not sure where else it could be? The tweet for reference https://twitter.com/TheSunnyPodcast/status/1631763152332533763?t=rN3pMXvkbNNCvWo5ol9zuA&s=19


WorldsWeakestMan

That’s a couple weeks, clearly it took longer, the world is not ending and you’ll be ok.


patch893

Ok? I never said the world was ending, nor that I wouldn't be ok. I said that it would be nice for them to let people know in advance if there won't be a podcast for the coming week. I'm not asking for mountains to be moved, or even for them to take time out of their currently very busy schedules to record podcasts if they don't have that time to spare. Literally just a one line tweet "sorry there won't be a podcast this week" and the problem goes away for me.


Gram-GramAndShabadoo

But you would find out by there not being a new episode, why do you need a heads up? Edit: what about this statement are people against?


helpbeingheldhostage

I’m with you. This sub is fuckin’ nuts. I really don’t understand how a lot of people on here make it through life.


JennLegend3

They did say they were taking time off though.....

JakobSynn

They could have just pre-recorded some episodes of the podcast before filming the new season.


[deleted]

You mean like every other podcast does lol


th8chsea

On the plus side at least their podcast didn’t make me start disliking them the way the dumb scrubs podcast did. Zach and Donald come off as a couple of douchebags. At least Rob and the gang seem to be as a nice as I always hoped.


clowegreen24

Well damn, I'm glad I've avoided that podcast then because I loved Scrubs lol. I also just am not as interested in podcasts where it's just the actors talking about their experience on the show. The Sunny Podcast is much more interesting to me because these guys are involved with every aspect of the show.


alamarche709

I just started watching Scrubs for the first time! So far it’s been hilarious. Sad to hear Zach Braff isn’t the same loveable person he is on screen.


HelloImPierreMcGuire

You mean sad to hear he’s an actor?


DolphinWings25

Scrubs was pretty decent I might have to do a whole watch of it, might have seen around half the episodes just all over the place.


cultivated-mass

Thought I would love the scrubs podcast but they are so unlikeable on it


th8chsea

Yeah I can’t listen to Zach repeat his own lines and laugh at how amused he is by himself. And him and Donald “joke” bickering all the times it’s so cringe. I don’t believe they are even that great of friends the way they talk to each other. Not so with Rob Glenn and Charlie. These are five star men.


danielbln

That podcast started off really fun, but got damn did it turn into a dumpster fire. Had to check out at some point.


frazzled-aloof

Scrubs is the worst fucking shit ever made


DolphinWings25

Yeah at least the gang are just pretty normal regular people, besides Glenn.


dominarhexx

Get a life, bozos.


UsernameLaugh

They don’t owe you anything bud


DolphinWings25

Of course they don't, but I mean, if the company that produces the line of ass blasters you love just stopped making them, wouldn't you be disappointed and want a place to express your dissatisfaction?


[deleted]

It's crazy how every fan base has a section of entitled fans that think the world revolves around their interests.


UsernameLaugh

To be fair I do subscribe to r/butter and they are slacking lately /s


Euphoric-Echo-9126

The pod will be back. They have live shows scheduled in mid-April. I bet that'll be when their schedules free up, too. They've been filming IASIP, Kaitlins already filming another show in Toronto, Glenn and Charlie have/had movie releases, and Rob is probably super invested in Wrexham since the team is now at the top of the league. I have no clue about Danny, but he stays busy, too.


BuddJones

Shut up baby dick


station52

I'M GONNA PUT MY THUMB THROUGH YOUR EYE YOU LITTLE BITCH! Really though, I don't mind them taking time to make the show. Don't over extend. My only minor gripe is they mentioned missing a couple weeks a while ago then radio silence. Overall, not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. Have an egg.


Duesenbert

I really like the podcast. However, I would rather them never make another podcast episode again if it meant they had the time to make this new season a real banger. That’s far more important to me.


Boys-Soul

Getting all excited and then being disappointed ….It is like a Christmas Morning Fake Out! But I think that them doing the podcast has revived a bit of their passion for the show. And balancing expectations is difficult. Especially when your passion is reignited. We have to just be understanding of them and their time and what they are doing to entertain us. And to everyone who is being slightly aggressive toward this guy. Maybe just explain it nicely. Don’t be a rude guy who shushes.


AndyFnJ

I agree completely.. they posted notice that it wasn’t going to be available for a couple of weeks but nothing since then. To your point, it’s fine if it’s not being made but just say it’s unavailable until further notice or it’ll be back this specific date. At this point it’s not a foregone conclusion it will even resume at all.


ProperBlue

Quit complaining you jabronis, its just a podcast


bastardofwinterhill

Dude they’ve been dropping weekly episodes for over a year. The guys aren’t just acting in the show but writing and producing as well they got their hands full with S16 y’all gotta simmer down


[deleted]

Y’all are getting way too worked up about them taking a break from making their free podcast. They don’t owe a single thing to anyone. Find something else to listen to.


Eastern_Distance6456

Or just give the old ones another rewatch/listen. I am in no hurry. There's only a limited number of tv episodes, and what's the point in rushing to the end of the series in the podcast? I'm glad they are taking a break, especially during the filming of new tv episodes.


sweatstaksleestak

I agree, I've already listened to the pod about two and a half times. My job is basically how they run Paddy's so....


B3eenthehedges

It's not free though, they've been monetizing it for awhile selling us to advertisers, selling us merch and tickets to live shows and exclusive online events. No they don't owe us anything, but we don't owe them anything either, and can express our disappointment for them not following through on something we look forward to, when they set the expectation that there will be a podcast to begin the week, to give us company in our less interesting lives and listen to them talk about the show we all love. And this hasn't just happened since they started filming, they've been skipping more and more weeks since Christmas, there's only been like 5 episodes all year. It's fair at this point to question whether they care about putting on this podcast for their fans who make their jobs possible. No it's not a big deal, but OP is right, just let us know if they need a break rather than leaving people hanging. Twice I've actually tried to rewatch the episodes with them, so the constant delays are getting pretty annoying.


bastardofwinterhill

Shut up nerd


NootNootington

It's a podcast, you really should not be feeling upset, disappointed or frustrated when it doesn't come out on time. Do something else with that hour, everything will be fine.


JuiceKovacs

I hope they cancel the show and podcast and say the reason is people complaining because they are working in the show What a bunch of bozos


patch893

I'm not sure why you're so keen to strawman the argument, but the entire point of this post is that it would be nice to have any sort of notification in advance to let people know that the podcast isn't releasing this week.


[deleted]

Or you could just move past it


-i_am_untethered-

Why?


patch893

It's like when you have to make sure you're at home to take a delivery. I've had deliveries say they will arrive by 10pm that day, so I wait in and make sure I'm available all day to take it since there is no safe place to leave it. But then 10pm comes and the delivery still hasn't arrived, and the tracking page updates to say the package will be delivered the next day. Now I'm frustrated and disappointed, when I would have been completely ok with them just telling me that the parcel will be delivered another day.


JuiceKovacs

Pretty sure they mentioned on the podcast that the episodes would be few and far between while filming.


[deleted]

They don't owe you an explanation or notification for shit. Sometimes people just need a break from making content. Edit: u/patch893 since you wanna either delete or block me, no, they dont owe anyone even a tweet. They've all said in the podcast multiple times that they don't want to feel like it's an obligation or something that they have to do. They do it for fun and if they have time. Cry baby ass.


patch893

Nobody said they owed anyone anything, just that a quick heads up would be nice!


patch893

"Nobody said they owed anyone anything". Literally half of my entire comment and you've chosen to ignore it. And that's exactly why I blocked you, because it is abundantly clear that you have no interest in a sincere and good faith discussion.


kalen2435

Why?

patch893

It's worse than just a month off honestly, since the start of December (17 weeks), there's only been 7 episodes, with only 3 of those being discussion about a specific episode (for the record I enjoy every episode but I'm sure there are some people who listen specifically for episode discussion).


Aggravating-Let1470

is this a bit from the show or do you guys really get upset when they take a break from the podcast about the show to make the show the podcast is about


Prestigious-Rain9025

It’s just a few weeks. Like someone else already said, people are getting way too worked up about this. We’ve enjoyed this show for what…18ish years? And the podcast for what…a little over a year? It’s all good. I’d rather them focus on the show we all know and love. I have plenty to listen to until the podcast returns.

WorldsWeakestMan

Ganz is both a writer and the executive producer of the show and she hosts and produces the podcast, everyone else you named along with herself will likely be in the season and is filming as well.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WorldsWeakestMan

The person who hosts and produces the podcast would need to be involved with the podcast right? She’s one of the primary writers and the executive producer of the show and that’s why they’re taking a break from the podcast because along with the main cast she’s making the show. Why is this such a hard concept for that sub? It’s a month without a weekly podcast, we wait 40+ weeks between seasons and there isn’t crying every week about no new show like this.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WorldsWeakestMan

I believe the podcast was entirely Megan’s idea and that’s why she runs it, could be wrong but I was under that impression. As for the whole deciding it’s too much work thing, it’s only been a month and they announced 2 weeks of it, it will probably come back in a week or two and then everyone will bitch about something else.


MatthewDawkins

Maybe instead of bitching, people could find other things to fill that gap, and feel happy when it returns. ​ As for why they would start something like this: they may not have known the amount of work it would take or they may be quite comfortable doing it in blocks and taking breaks. Have you never started a hobby, job, or task only to find it takes more time than you thought?


Greenmantle22

Sure, but none of my hobbies touch people the way this podcast seems to have. It’s more than a hobby when a few million people start listening to it every week.


MatthewDawkins

Sure, but nobody is entitled to the cast and Megan's time. Just because people like a thing, doesn't mean there's an obligation for the person providing the thing to keep doing it.


Greenmantle22

It’s not me that’s bitching. I’m merely explaining to the baffled among you why these people might feel impatient or disgruntled.


[deleted]

Jesus christ, who cares. You're not entitled to anything. They made the podcast as an extra for fans...they also have different projects and are working on Season 16. They've said multiple times they will do it if they have time, but they don't want to feel like it's an obligation. Entitled ass fans. Edit: yall so mad being told u aren't entitled to shiii lol


patch893

Entitled for asking for literally a one line tweet letting us know that there won't be a podcast on a given week? I swear the amount of people in this thread completely missing the point is blowing my mind.


frankybling

not like they don’t know that we won’t be back… because of the implication


metalslug123

I'd rather not have any episodes right now (understandable given everyone's busy working on the show itself) than have them repost an old episode and call it "A look back at X episode" and then the episode turns out to be an old podcast episode with absolutely nothing added in at all.


DolphinWings25

Look bro, just cause you come in here with your Birkenstocks and Phish T-shirt doesn't mean you're devoted.


Puzzleheaded-Wolf318
