The Ben and Emil Show

Watcher TV made a REALLY stupid business decision. Arguably one of the worst we've seen in a while. So we're picking it apart this week, along with some other absolutely bird brained dipshit business decisions we'd like to share with you: the Red Lobster shrimp disaster, the chips that make your ass leak, and more. Oh, plus one really good one because we gotta balance it out.Here's the link for Moomoo mentioned in the first few minutes!
