"I know that the story is bigger than what Mac is saying, what Mac is doing will destroy the podcast and we hope he sees it before it's too late. Sol will get tired of the nonsense as well and once he leaves, it will all be done."

@TaSongzzz replied:

"Mac has destroyed many things before. It wouldn't be anything new. The fact that he is now treating his camp as mere employees show that the old MacG is creeping in. He must try it with sol or Ghostlady he will see us all unsubscribe."
