I Am Leaving Macrodosing + Campaign Update + Lots Of Shit Happening
So, I am leaving Macrodosing Podcast. It pains me to say that, because at least feel like I put my heart and soul into it these past couple of years. The reasoning behind the whole thing I was kind of blindsided with on Monday morning and was regarding my remote status on the podcast. Apparently, it was not good for the quality of the show. I was not even aware of this problem, but in the words of Arian Foster a week ago.

I wish the Macrodosing Pod the best in the future. Working with PFT has been the greatest thing that has ever happened to me, and I wish him the best. I know a lot of you thought I got fired from Pardon My Take, but I didn't; this technically may count as getting fired from Macrodosing, tho. Not to get political, but I did, and with that, your relationships with about half the people in your life will change. I thought it wasn't true, but I saw it in my professional and personal life. But "The Campaign Had Nothing to Do With The Decision," I am told.
It's PFT and Arian's show that they had me on to help build from the beginning. Just as they decided to have me on to help, they can decide if they no longer want me on. I am still working at Barstool Sports. To be completely transparent, I currently have an at-will contract with Barstool on a part-time salary, and it just took a huge hit to my income from quarterly bonuses. Between this congressional campaign, this recent professional development, and running a half marathon that broke my body, adversity is at an all-time high, but I am literally built differently.
This really is Billy's last stand; it's time to put up or shut up, sink or swim. I have historically irrational confidence, but that's what keeps me swinging for the fences. I don't regret a thing. I constantly tried to innovate, come up with new ideas, and find new cool guests; a lot of them were shut down, but I do think doing the podcast live during the eclipse would have been a good idea; trying to get Bryan Johnson the dude who was getting blood transfusions from his 16-year-old son was a good idea. I have a lot of ideas, and now I have no excuse not to execute them. That's why I am starting my own podcast/video series.
I know what you are thinking: Why does another white dude think he can start a podcast? Well, I have been podcasting for the past 7 years, and I am not going to stop now. I am going to get back into the things that Macrodosing forgot. Do you remember the Denver Airport? Do you remember when we brought the biohacker that made their own COVID-19 vaccine before anyone else had one? We are going to be getting into that and much more. I am actually going to plug our first video, "How I Beat Alpha Gal Syndrome." The video is finally finished. It will be coming out soon.
But Now I want to introduce AudioCraic.
I recently became accustomed with the term "The Craic" while at the bar with some off the boat Irish dudes and have been fascinated with the concept.
Craic (/kræk/ KRAK) or crack is a term for news, gossip, fun, entertainment, and enjoyable conversation, particularly prominent in Ireland.[1][2][3] It is often used with the definite article – the craic[1] – as in the expression "What's the craic?", meaning "How are you?" or "What's happening?". The Scots and English crack was borrowed into Irish as craic in the mid-20th century and the Irish spelling was then reborrowed into English.[1] Under both spellings, the term has become popular and significant in Ireland.
It is a pretty great concept, and I realize the Craic is something I am addicted to, just chilling with the fellas and having a good time. Added with the double entendre of Crack cocaine, and boom, we are doing Audiocraic. The first episode will be out on Friday; we have a ton of great interviews lined up and the release schedule has not been finalized. It might be Monday-Thursday or even Tuesday-Thursday.
The first episode will have Dirty Water Don, the guy who brought me to the bottom of the East River to look for mammoth bones. The Wonton Don will also be joining. We will be talking about his progress in looking for underwater fossils, why Joe Rogan is not fulfilling his promise, talk more about the Macrodosing situation, legitimate campaign updates on the legal issues, and more. Rome wasn't built in a day, and the Craichead's support will have to be earned. It's not going to be a solo podcast in the long run; going to build a group and a team and get the craic going. The main aim is good vibes and brain-tickling topics. I am a social creature.

I know there are a lot of questions; they will all be answered on the podcast tomorrow. We have some banger guests secured and its going to be a wild ride. This podcast isn't under the Barstool umbrella currently and that means I can do whatever I want, have whoever I want on it.
