That Being Said #238 - The Totally Real God Pack
Summary
This episode of That Being Said features hosts Phil and Meerkat Mob dissecting leaked DMs from DSP to Kino Casino, revealing a manipulative attempt to re-establish contact after their bitter split. The hosts analyze DSP’s shifting public tone, contrasting his recent harsh insults with his earlier polite outreach to Andy Warski regarding a channel ban. They argue that DSP’s actions were a calculated play to exploit the group for content and audience growth rather than genuine assistance. The discussion also includes a brief segment opening a "Divorce Dad" trading card pack sent by a viewer.
