A lot more on Twitter are talking about it. Additionally both Tim and Ben Shapiro have hinted at media acquisitions in the past few weeks. Would explain Brett Cooper where DW was going to cut Tim a bigger check than her.

YouTubers (CobraCast) just went live over this story.

Didn't Tim announce he knocked up his gf a while ago?

Sounds like he's looking to play Mr. Mom in the near future.

Poole is cashing out. I think he's pretty much hit his ceiling anyway.

After all the swatting, I don't blame him. Get the big bucks while you can then go sit things out for a bit. If you get bored, get back into the biz later (see also: Megyn Kelly).

I listen to TimCast a decent amount and Tim seems burnt out. He's been hinting that when he has his baby he's going to want to spend more time with his family, and he's constantly bitching about how annoying it is to manage the employees at his media company, and that he and his baby mama do all of the work with little help. I expect him to hit the podcast circuit after the sale and he'll most likely continue his daily, morning podcast (just him).

I hope Tim still has a presence somewhere. I like a whole lot about his format and I like the perspective his background gives him. He's been a consistently good listen for a couple of years now.

Also, as for the daily wire, I really dig the Morning Wire.

I stopped watching TimCast a long time ago. They take a 2 minute topic and and drag it out for 20 minutes. Ain't nobody got time for that.

I agree. Tim gets stuck in the weeds too often with guests and argues semantics way too much.

He is a whiny, wussy-sounding, smooth handed Yankee. Good riddance.

I have also been watching this podcast frequently for the last few years. Since Phil has become an everyday counter terrorist and Hannah just disappeared, it has been a much more challenging podcast to absorb daily. Not saying Hannah was the answer but at least she wasn't completely overwhelmed by the testosterone and she was an occasional voice of reason. When Ian is on the conversations sometimes get more interesting, if and when he finally interjects his thoughts into the show. The guests do make a difference. The episodes with congressmen and women on are always pretty entertaining if they can get a word in and questions are asked. I will still watch Tim but with the ability to fast forward is the easiest way for me lately.

I don’t think he’s “stepping away”. He’ll probably continue his show, but simply be more of an on air talent and not a manager. There’s no reason for DW to buy the operation otherwise. Tim just wants to get rid of the headaches that come along with being the boss.

Tim Pool is such a fraud.

He preached getting out of the cities and get into the country forever.

What about the chickens?

This. The show is worthless without him. He's just giving up his ownership and possibly ceding some control to DW.

If Pool is no longer a part of this "empire" after the sale, how does DW make money off of the remnants>? I honestly don't have a clue here. Will the people that subscribed to Tim Pool still be around once he's gone?
