For those that follow Barstool Sports, what content does Marty Mush bring?

I am a big fan of the Barstool brand and content that they put out. What does Marty add to the brand other than being a cling on? He is always around on every stream but see zero content that he contributes to the company.

You could ask this same question for a lot of people over at Barstool

He brings that certain je ne sais quoi that only a dumb as a sack of rocks, myopic New Yorker can bring.

How many hires have actually been successful at Barstool the past 5 years? I like how Barstool hires these girls for gambling that have very little sports knowledge and then hire the same girl a month later. I really don’t care about the gambling content when barstool has 20 people pushing their locks of the week on you.

He does gamble on everything but its for very little stakes. I hate to unit shame but if you have $20 on a game you can't act like your grandmother just died when it doesn't come through for you.

Dave and PMT carry that place. I'm convinced they could drop 90% of their content crew and not lose a single advertising dollar.

I love the Trivia, so selfishly they should keep that going.

I love large at barstool but his content probably isn’t bringing in a ton of numbers. They have some lesser known guys there that do good stuff but it’s for sure carried by Dave, Big Cat, and PFT.


A guy like KFC could be gone completely and they wouldn’t miss a beat. I think he sucks.

They should probably fire a bunch of those people and spend the money on advertising for the sportsbook. I'm not sure about other states, but they are way behind Draftkings/Fanduel/MGM here. Now, Draftkings and Fanduel may have had a head start with fantasy. But, I think Penn Gaming misfired a bit if they thought joining forces with hip/cool blog site would translate into casino revenue.

I have no idea. I used to listen to them on XM but haven’t since that fell through. Lost interest in PMT as well. PFT and Hank are losers.

Same, I enjoy Barstool, but there seems to be a ton of people who don't do much. Or maybe I don't follow it all enough, so I am not seeing what they are putting out

Like a lot of their employees he's pretty useless, but he gets me so triggered because he's constantly thrown into the videos and shows I enjoy watching with personalities I find tolerable. He has a horrible schtick and I think he's just an a-hole

I used to hate PFT but he has grown on me in the last year or so. His recent interview with KFC was really good. Changed my perspective on him enormously

He’s one of the only characters I actually like.

Dave isn’t firing anyone unless they really have it coming. He likes the barstool alt-reality that the different characters all collectively create even if they don’t all directly contribute to the bottom line.

For all of the success that Barstool has had, it’s a complete mess of an organization.
