Aaron Imholte / Steel Toe Morning/Evening Show / "The Toe Boys" / r/steeltoeboringshow - Disgraced Minnesotan radio host turned racist Internet shock jock. Cuckold chef de Spaghetti-os, "2-2" boxing "coach". Has a legion of a-logs. Lost his wife to a coke addict he played "Strip Twister" with. Fined $50 for sharing nudes of Kayla Rekieta.

Where does MAPton fall in the faggotverse hierarchy? He's a former failed standup comic who kind of sort of got known for his early podcasts.
Being a failed comedian makes him fit in with the rest of the Dabbleverse quite nicely. Being a washed up podcaster whose podcast was relatively popular 15-20 years ago when podcasts themselves weren't that popular seems more unusual as it seems being a washed up radio guy or wannabe washed up radio guy is more common.

There's far too much crossover to not say DV and HV are 95% the same.
It's really great how everyone associated with the Dabbleverse vehemently disclaims their involvement in it.

Until you accept that you’re mistaken or just accept that you are not an authority with the power to shut down conversation.

There are many people like myself who have never watched any show that shits on Stuttering John and studiously avoid any such shows, yet are aware of what’s going on because of the overlap between Hackverse and Dabbleverse. People who are fans of that content have labeled themselves Dabblers and embrace the whole Dabbleverse designation.

You wouldn’t refer to Marvel comics as DC just because they’re both comics with superheroes. They are distinct in their output and produced by different people, even if occasionally one artist or writer might collab on the other side and even if there is some audience overlap. Similarly, insistence on labeling all of this content Dabbleverse is inaccurate and frankly lazy and stupid. No offense.

If you want to call it all Shitverse, as some do (and similar to how comic slop is referred to as capeshit by many), go for it. It’s the term I use when referring to it outside of KF.
No, and the distinction is pretty obvious once you know about it. While the Dabbleverse is centered on John Melendez, if anyone is the focal point of the Hackverse it’s Kevin Brennan. Love him or hate him (many of us love AND hate him), he is the polarizing anchor who still has the must-watch stream. The Hackverse is fueled by harsh call-outs and IRL drama resulting from show beefs. Whereas the Dverse is intensely focused on John, the Hackverse is constantly creating and cycling through new feuds and events, with many audience members leveling up to become show regulars (e.g. Mr. Kill Everything, KarmicX, Clearwater Chad, Carlos Danger, et al.). The through-line for both is a rich vein of has-been or never-was comedians (and “comedians”), many of whom have been around since the ‘80s or ‘90s. Personally I have never watched any of the Dabbleverse shows, except in clip form after something crazy happened.
I haven’t heard of these other circles, except for Da Sektur. Karl has been a constant Stuttering John alog all along so he’s Dabbleverse. Some Dabblers are hoping Aaron will be the new SJ since John has mostly stopped producing content since December 31. Dax and Maddox never had a self-sustaining universe of their own.

There’s no need to get overly autistic about it. Hackverse people tend to be those of us who grew up during the standup comedy renaissance of the 1990s and enjoy the rage-fueled online and offline antics of some of those comics we remember from back in the day. Dabbleverse people are fucking obsessed with Stuttering John.
That's a ton of words complete with corresponding diagram that all boil down to "I'm a massive Dabbleverse fan"
 
specifically, who are you referring to here
Myself and other Hackverse fans who also don’t consume any Dabbleverse content. It’s bizarre how emotionally invested certain very online spergs are to their us vs. them lens on this stuff. Is it just garden variety autism?

also, I'm not talking about fans or alogs- i'm strictly talking about "presenters", hosts, and personalities
There’s certainly an argument to be made that any show that’s a derivative of Stern or OnA should be classified as Dabbleverse. But that still wouldn’t apply to a show like MLC. It reminds me of how a Republican who says “I care about the environment” gets immediately categorized as a libtard by a certain type of NPC. Anyone who’s stretching this much to curate their own internet superiority complex has already lost.

"Personally I have never watched any of the Dabbleverse shows"

It seems to me like you're the expert, Mark

-No Watp in graph
-No nlo in graph
-Nearly everyone in the HV has and will jump on the SJ train when the drama is ripe
-Making Shuli anything but DV is hilarious. Hello... Uncle Rico?!
-Godfrey doesn't belong in any of this

"Some Dabblers are hoping Aaron will be the new SJ since John has mostly stopped producing content since December"

He's been the nEw sTuTtErInG jOhN for over a year now

I agree. You're at like 1000 words and a shitty Venn diagram and literally nobody has agreed with you on your "Hackverse versus Dabbleverse" distinction and instead are laughing at you. Maybe it's time to move on?

MLC is for sure part of the Dabbleverse.
You don't GET IT! Kevin Brennan is a REAL COMEDIAN like those Dabbleverse nobodies! Don't you know he was on SNL for 2 months in 1996??? Educate yourself.

You can condemn Melton and condemn Aaron participating in that disturbing "joke" from the chatter instead of all the options on the table (banning him, ignoring it, asking why the fuck the guy's acting like a creep) as well. Apparently the defense is that it's a "SHOCK JOCK" thing, but whatever. Melton defends his disgusting "jokes" the same way, and that's bullshit too.

I don't think there's anything more to it than Aaron not wanting to chase away any potential paypig but I still think it's weird.

It's not my fault Aaron makes underage incest jokes about his own daughter. Take it up with the toe.

didn't he literally say "that's not what i meant" after a chatter made the joke?

edit: just double checked, he said "i just realized how awful that looked." acknowledging the double entendre someone else made before moving on. he should've told the chatter to shut the fuck up, but accusing him of making a pedo joke is a serious reach. aaron alogs are desperate man

Isn't it wild that he didn't? Obvious incest pedo that should be investigated by the FBI, right?

Aaron's girlfriend slid into Nick's DMs last year??? lololol. What is it about Aaron Incestholte and greasy-ass Nick Cokekieta that makes these Minnesota sixes want to destroy their lives?

The only reason why this guy is still somewhat relevant, because Nick can't stop ignoring him and very desperate to punish him for something.
Aaron is a boring loser whose biggest highlight of his life was that he become "friend" with a former coworker of Anthony Cumia and was part of the Rekieta polycule.
 
I really hate how this thread seems to be sides against sides.
Nick’s a piece of shift, Patrick’s a creep, Aaron’s a lying delusional grifter.
Can’t we just make fun of each person in their thread?
And anyone who "sides" with any of these 3 r's is going to seem foolish when they all get on good terms in the next 12 months, because none of them have a value system.
