About a year and a half ago a friend told me to tune into Spittin Chiclets and really pressed how great it was. I loaded a couple of episodes up for a listen and it didn't take me long to figure out I didn't like it. The interviews were really good as these guys have a knack of talking to hockey people because they directly come from that world, but the other 80% just felt like cringey early 2000s frat boy jock talk. I decided I didn't want to wade through Bissonnette and Whitney waving their dicks around about their sexual conquests just to get to the interviews. Of course, to each their own.
Miller's initial response to an open Q&A was pretty innocuous, and after Barstool fans went after him for it I really didn't have an issue with his explanation. This has long been a complaint of Portnoy and his platform. What I do have a problem with is Portnoy acting like some kind of victim and sic'ing his fans and employees on Miller. The attacks on Miller's 16 year old daughter are particularly disgusting.
If that is the kind of audience you attract maybe it's time to look inwards?
