[I Love Videogames 69]

Meerkat talked a little bit about the firing of dented Steve of the Dead on a recent stream. He said the other TBS co-hosts found Steve’s politics annoying and had him muted on X but accepted that was the way he was. They got frustrated/terminated him when he publicly celebrated Kirk’s assasination, not seeing how that could fuck up their podcast. He said Steve had no awareness/self-awareness.

Best part? Not the faintest hint that Steve will come back.

I never understood why Steve was there at all. This reads like Meerkat merely tolerated at best Steve as you would do a co-worker, but then says Alt found him annoying as well....so then who the fuck was keeping him there?

Like why was Steve EVER there at all?

I believe he means that they tolerated his political sperging on social media. I find it hard to believe they were annoyed by him on stream when you consider he added nothing to any conversation and rarely said anything of value. I think I could vaguely remember they said they had both muted him on X during the segment they talked about removing him from the show.

From my recollection, he first joined as one of the first guest and became full time by popular demand. I think being adding something from a psychological perspective could've been beneficial but it had run its course within a few episodes.

Could you elaborate?
