I am a person with connections to The Big 3 and Perry Caravello Live. I have personally met all involved in all these projects and i am friends with them. I have been a high ranking member in the online "cult" we've had for more than ten years.
The information shared here is flawed and baseless of facts, if i was trying to use a thread as a source of information on Perry Caravello , i would not use this one. Perry Carevello is 100 percent worthy of the title Lolcow but this info is very bad information. I am willing to answer any questions.
Let me start with some of the easy stuff i've seen here in this thread.
I have been a Don Barris fan for over a decade, hardcore supportive, i love the man....
But hes lost it..... over time he slowly became more and more bitter about " not making it" as a comic. He grew more bitter and jealous of tony b and perry.
Jealous of Tony because he was liked more by Jimmy Kimmel.
Don is a very depressed person with issues and he tends to burn everyone in his life.... its a very sad thing to watch and come to grips with.
The Big 3 never made it because of the tension between don and everyone else. No one in hollywood wanted to work with Don because he was well known to be a bully and nutjob. He cannot maintain any kind of professional relationship.
He hasnt written any new jokes or material in decades..... He closes out the comedy store not because he is a good comic..... but because he is a bad comic, they know when don barris comes on stage its time to leave. They use him to clear the place so everyone can go home for the night.
This goes for the big 3 or the ding dong show ( his other project) he hasnt helped with any creative parts in that in a very long time, Tony doing all the creative and fan contributors doing all the work for free. Don has even resorted to having a fan ( tombstone) write the ding dong show for him.
Don has become depressed and bitter to the point where his loyal fans of decades have left because they just cant watch it any longer.
Don is the reason the big 3 never made it, he sabotaged it and took his ball away and ran whenever us fans didnt make him feel loved enough.
Years back they had a GOFUNDME to film a pilot, raising 16k. Don was not happy with this small amount and he made it known he was disappointed. From a fan club of 1500 ppl at the time we put together 16k.
He promised that anyone who donated would receive gifts and any one who wanted to view it would have to attend a fan meeting, and it would be shown to the rest of the fans at a later date.
I have it on very good authority (first hand info) that don pocketed most of the money and relied on friends contributions to complete the pilot . As he never has explained the spending of the money. MOST of the fans never received their gifts for donating. BECAUSE DON WAS PISSED WE DIDNT DONATE MORE.
I know for a fact don can share the pilot with us fans without any problem but he chooses NOT to.
DON IS THE REASON FOR ALL FAILURES PERTAINING TO THE BIG 3
now lets get to Tom....
Tom was just a fan that Perry developed a relationship with perry, perry thought he was someone he wasn't and assumed he was publicist. Tom just went with it.
Over time they got closer and closer and the role grew pretty much real.
Tom replaced Nick ( perrys handler at the time) and became the character " tomb" . He became a major part of the project and story line as well as perrys handler.
I think ive established the facts about Don barris, but as you could imagine he didnt treat perry well. ( just look up what happened to schizo surfer if you want to see what happens to lolcows that don " loves"). He was so jealous of the attention perry got that he could not maintain any kind of relationship with him.
Thats why he needed tom in the first place.
Over time Tom seen how much of an asshole don barris is and he started looking out for perrys interest.... and at the right time he branched out and helped perry do his own thing.
Perry was on disability , living in a rent controlled studio apartment, barely squeeking along for decades ( because don sabotaged everything the big 3 ever had going for them and blamed it on perry). His disability got TAKEN AWAY by the government because he had been scammed multiple times and had ALL of his money stolen several times. So they took away his disability.
Perry was on the verge of being homeless and who helped him?
Don barris? no
Jimmy Kimmel? no
Johnny knoxville ? no
Adam carolla? no
ONLY TOM ,
Tom financially supported perry for years out of his own pocket, because he grew to care about him and love him, seeing how much he'd been mistreated his entire life by those around him. Sure, if perry and don never met perry would be dead or in prison... he would have been a much sadder story, meeting tom was just another blessing for perry.
As you could imagine fully supporting a grown man for years could get costly so Tom started looking for ways to " KEEP PERRY IN RESEDA" and not homeless.
They started on onlyfans as a sort of joke and it actually took off, then they switched to twitch and started a patreon.
Don has seen this success and instead of using it to raise everyone involved he became even more bitter and hateful, giving next to no effort to tb3 and making it known he is not happy about anything. Taking his ball and running away once more claiming the big 3 is on hiatus .
Everyone involved in the project feels the same about don at this point and im pretty sure you might be seeing the last of the big 3 as we know it.
Now finally with the help of tom perry can pay his own rent and buy his own food.
Tom got perry to leave the jahovas witnesses ( WHO DID NOT HELP HIM WHEN HE WAS GOING TO BE HOMELESS) . Yea thats right, he got perry to leave a cult!
Then he got perry to leave behind his extreme homophobic views , drilling it into his head that he cannot have any career in entertainment and be such a bigot.
Yeah Tom got perry to stop being a bigot
Till this day Tom hasnt seen any big sums of money come his way and i dont think he really expects it either, he just wants to help perry. All tom gets is the donations marked #tips4tomb . This is ensured by perrys blood cousin who does all of perrys accounting.
Don barris was never endorsed by perrys family because they knew the deal... Tom is endorsed by perrys actual family.
So for anyone on here to claim hes some grifter trying to drain the life out of perry for cash is flat out wrong.
You are seeing the separation of perry from the big 3 and going on his own successfully.
All Tom has done is deliver everything big 3 fans have ever wanted while keeping perry alive. Don has denied us everything over the years and he knew he could come thru for us fans, and he has.
Mole ( Tony b) and Tom have a good relationship , this is proven by the contributions of tony on PCL , when he calls into the stream ALONE without don. Thru out the years mole has been extremely loyal to don and now that is over due to dons behavior over the years. I know it personally thru conversations ive had with mole online. ( mole doesnt talk to anyone , so that tells you im high up in the cult)
Again i will answer any question or refute anything anyone asks me to and i can guarantee without a shadow of a doubt that my information is correct, especially compared to the campfire tales i see here. I am as close to the projects as you can get without actually being in them, My information is good.
