I hadnt heard the details re martha stewart so it was very interesting

Just joined Patreon and will know soon I'm sure :)

I can't even access half of them because Patreon fucks up all the time.

It was a really hard decision, I finally rised to the occasion and choose the dick pills.

Jayef Bradlee

Nah, boner puns is where it's at. It's what the public WANTS!

You’re all snooooozing on the Vendstar - he’s hilarious in that one

C

OMG what episode????

Meagan Pattis

Did I just hear a concerned citizen on Canadian true crime podcast. I love the collab. Christy is a badass

Holly Golightly

“You know what it is” — the sultan

Sammy Patterson

dash con for sure

I picked the pole saw bc it never ceases to amaze me the lengths people will go to make a quick buck. That, and people who dig up dead bodies to fake their own death. Oh my god, isn’t getting a job kinda better than dealing with a rotting corpse? Maybe we should ask Brent Marsh 😂😂😂

You could have asked for a top 10 and it still would have been hard to chose! I went with the mortician because I found it most shocking, on a human level.

Boner King. Can't forget that whistling jingle on late night TV, followed by a Girls Gone Wild Ad (shout out Joe Francis.)

The Promotion, the one I bring up to stunt my friends

Greg Howes

My innerchild couldn't stop giggling at the boner king

Thomas Norris

This was hard! But I went to the Bonner king because why not. Seriously it was entertaining. And now everyone is doing the same kinda thing. From razors to soap. Every month more crappy blades show up. And your card is charged and they make it almost impossible to quit

So do these come out a day before or the same day on Spotify? What's the advantage we gain through Patreon?

Kathryn W. Adams

DashCon for me. It's a fantastic episode, and I still remember being glued to my computer while that whole disaster went down.

Jane S

I just subscribed to your Patreon about 3 days ago so I can't vote but I do want to say that your podcast is fantastic and I'm telling all my friends about it.

Honestly Im going to have to binge all the bonus eps again! I went with the Bookkeeper just because it was literally so close to home but other contenders are the Refugee and the Dashcon ep

Considering the duration and number of people involved against one of the largest corporations in the world, The Promotion.

it was between the refugee & dashcon. both stories stuck with me and were just kind of unbelievable. most of your stories are wild though so I guess that's not good basis 😆

But guess that's because it's not a bonus episode

My favourite isn't in the list. I value it because such horrific cover up of the amount of babies that died is finally out to the public. "The Nestle conspiracy"

DiscoPig

The Tree Farm baffled me and I still think about, because I honestly wondered why they did it. The idiots, they didn't need to scam that guy, he would have given them the money willingly, all they had to do was pretend to care about him, which seems a lot easier than creating a complex scam. Some people I guess really have no moral compass.

Don't be so nasty to Queen music! It transcends dimensions. ;-p

I chose the Bookeeper because it was an interesting narrative. I find it notable that the current winners are the Bonus episodes that were re-released for non-Patreon supporters. If you remove those then the top results are Dashcon followed by Wycleff Jean.

MBA

Dude.

I had to choose Boner because I think a grifter openly preying on that kind of toxic masculinity is important to talk about and it hit home for me. However, dashcon is a close second because I'm a nerdy millennial and that whole thing was a garbage fire and having a podcast affirm that it did indeed happen was a fucking trip.

I think after looking at this list my favourites are ones where company’s have defrauded individuals rather than when individuals have defrauded other individuals. It’s easy to write an individual off as a bad egg but when it’s a business it shows a more systemic problem with our society.

Kelsie DeZarn

Oh my god, the fucking ball pit.

Travis

Because I am an Aussie, the Paul Charles Dozsa was a classic.

Ghost Town

DashCon wasn’t a Swindle attendees got an extra hour in the ball pit major jackpot if you ask me

Kelsie DeZarn

Hearing those nerds at DashCon singing “We Are The Champions” or whatever it was had me dying. The absolute cringe-iest thing I’ve ever heard.

I actually liked The Refugee because I was wondering what happened to Wycleaf Jean and needless to say, I was shocked 😳

Marleena Garris

Okay but Dashcon had me laughing so much because I'd heard of it first from Internet Historian and you should definitely check that account out after hearing this😭

Kevin Xu

Tree farm has the best fraud discovery, who knew those conferences can actually be productive!

Jenn

Boner King...DUH. Only because it was narrated by the one and only. Excited for this new season, you have NO idea.

Realtor For Workers

you gave us too many options. think more like Hitler and less like yahoo.

Mellow

Hmm seems kind of like most people like it based on how familiar the product is to them. Or at least imo on a super small sample, the stories weren’t super outlandish but crushing the survey.

Aimee Pearce

Lol community engagement 😂 (just to confirm ♥️ all episodes)

Britteny Norris

filter your word search to "Bonus". Definitely helped

Amanda Mapes

My faves weren't listed:(

Can’t pass up a good boner pun!

Jonas

I picked the Homemaker, if only for that clip of Martha Stewart talking about how she cleaned the jail.

This was tough, but I agree with the consensus so far. The Enzyte episode was genuinely fascinating and I loved hearing ACC go (pardon my pun) balls to the wall with dick jokes.
