WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM US?
Added 2021-12-01 05:48:36 +0000 UTCSo we're coming to the end of the year, and we're finding ourselves asking, um, ourselves, what could we be doing better? So we're reaching out to the friendos here on Patreon to find out what could or should we do to make this a better value proposition. No ideas are off the table! If you're considering leaving the GIR Patreon, but there's something that would help convince you to stick around, let us know!

Also no intention of leaving Friendo Club 4 Life. Only way I would leave Patreon was if there was a more direct way to support and still get the perks

2021-12-02 00:11:33 +0000 UTCShoot Baby T-Shirts for sale are always on top of my list. the art Steve did was amazing and I love the pink background color. Also Instead of doing Matchat as video questions why not do a question thread so people can type their questions and this way they can ask longer more involved questions but because you guys are doing a monthly video you don't need to read the full question you can just give the viewers the cliff notes version of the question. I see a lot of patreon QA threads done this way. As far as name change I don't personally care but the name does stop me from having the podcast on when I know other people (besides my wife) can hear it. Which is ok cause that leaves me with headphones or when I'm commuting to and from work.

2021-12-01 18:03:39 +0000 UTCHellllooooooo friendooooooos! I cut back to the 5$ Patreon this year cause of some life things, but I would never leave the Patreon! Love what you guys do and the content you make as well as the community that’s been built. If there was something I would add,and this is “just for fun” type deal, I would do a once a quarter zoom chat with Patreon friendos?(if this has been suggested already/in the works that’s my bad). But it would be cool to see/hear some of the friendos who have been around for awhile. Whatever y’all decide keep doing what y’all are doing!

2021-12-01 17:46:51 +0000 UTCBut for real, things are pretty good, I guess more but better is fine lol, I do miss the occasional field trips (though that's understandable right now) and the food reviews, but the content has been great and consistent so no reason to complain.

2021-12-01 16:07:01 +0000 UTCYou could do one of those Mr. Beast type videos like, "We pay indie wrestlers $10,000 to have the weirdest gimmick matches" or something lol

2021-12-01 15:21:44 +0000 UTCNo ideas off the table? I've got the perfect idea. GIR New York! A club/restaurant that plays all GIR livestreams and shows videos and has regular appearances from people on the show? Huh? Too expensive you say?

2021-12-01 15:18:45 +0000 UTCWith that said, I know there's a lot of wrestling to cover nowadays and you guys are super busy! So I hope I'm not coming off too inconsiderate.

2021-12-01 13:58:14 +0000 UTCThis is still the best wrestling channel in the world. I like everything you guys do, in fact, I can't get enough. If there was one thing I would like to see improved is the pacing of the podcast. I've noticed more so this year than ever that the two hosts of the show seem to move on to the next segment of the show too fast. The host will say "Next we have *this*...." too quickly after saying two words about the previous segment. I know podcasts can be long, but waiting a beat or two between thoughts being shared and moving on to the next segment can make it feel like you two aren't just rushing through the podcast.

2021-12-01 13:57:06 +0000 UTCI'm not sure how this would work but maybe a monthly live numbers don't lie with friendos via zoom. Like ya do the votes all the same and it can go out for vod but you get friendos feedback and discussion on why they voted the way they did, maybe people make a case for who should be next? Similar to what Steve was talking about for mat chat. Personally I'm a vod person being in Ireland and different time zones. So if this was more towards the end of the week I could move stuff around. One other suggestion is the question threads being posted earlier so the likes of us who watch a day later can ask questions or speculation pre the episode. In general love your work friendos honestly means a lot having you guys to listen to as I don't have a friend that shares the interest and ye feel like the cool uncles I can discuss and participate in the topic with along with the lovely community. Also think you discussed it but bring able to reup for a friendo care package as a 20$ patron, because for me I lost my GIR tee in Amsterdam in 2018 and the idea of a new comic sounds dope. Are any of Steve's other comics available for purchase?

2021-12-01 12:31:56 +0000 UTCBeing in a different time zone sucks because you miss the live shows more often than not. They happen at like 5am so I can only catch them if I have a bad night sleep or something. Why's that a problem? Because the best part of the show is the pre and post banter, which doesn't get uploaded because it's not technically part of the show. I don't really give a shit about wrestling anymore so missing the banter sucks. It would be good if the WHOLE show was kept somewhere, even for a couple of days.
