>Well, as the saying goes, "the best laid plans can cripple you financially." Not enough people bit. To continue making the show, C.K. says, "I had to take out a line of credit." Speaking with the incredible chill of someone who is presumably screaming molten fire on the inside, C.K. told Stern that he's now "millions of dollars in debt."

I hadn't heard of this show before this thread, and reading the episode outlines it sounds like the most depressing bullshit imaginable. Has anyone here actually watched it?

>>68155133
Does it have any good waifus like Louie does?
BIG BLACK DEBT
LITTLE WHITE FINANCES

There is a qt with Tourette's
>>68154789
it was really good but also it made made me profoundly sad. also ck is a cuck
>>68154191
He's going to have to sell the IBG isn't he?
>>68156195
Who would buy it? Moot?
His daughters are gonna have to work overtime at the IBG if he's gonna pay this shit off
or even worse, he might have to sell his yacht

>Spends millions on "tv" show
>Doesn't spend a cent on marketing
>Releases it without telling anyone for free on website
>Boohoo I'm millions in debt because no one is paying to see it
Is this dumbass really that full of himself? Can anyone do this and expect to make money? (expect maybe dictators)
>>68156458
It's not free, but like, torrents are a thing, very weird.

He didn't say "boohoo." He said "whoops, i guess i need to market my shit so now I'm here on Howard Stern marketing."
I think the whole move might be a sort of marketing strategy in itself. He goes on a few shows and talks about how poor he is and people start falling over themselves to buy his shit.
>>68156458
he's hit peak cuck
>>68154191
Good. I'm sick of this faggot pretending to be blue collar while telling us about how much he hates white men at least once every stand-up.
>>68154789
I'm in the mood for some depressioncore, I might give it a try.
Is it good?
>>68157307
>Is it good?
Yes, actually.
Has a strong theatre vibe tho
Now he wishes he was in the black in more ways than one
>>68156624
>He goes on a few shows and talks about how poor he is
He fully stopped doing that on his last shows though. And if you watch (listen) the whole Marc Maron Louis CK interview, you'll notice that he's been through some shit whether it's just him not getting enough money or him screwing up or getting screwed up a lil bit.
>>68157403
clever
>millions of dollars in debt
but we should listen to what he says about politics and the economy still, right? he's lucky he has kids because he definitely would kill himself at some point otherwise.
Doesnt CK make a shitload of money touring?
How the fuck do you throw all that away on some project? fuck
>Releases a self-funded show privately to try and get people to spread it word of mouth
>Nobody has heard of it or watches it
>Ends up going on Jimmy Kimmel saying "hey guys I released this show in secret xD isn't that quirky, pls watch it"
>Still barely any viewers and hemorrhaging money
reddit: the marketing strategy
>>68157403
nice one.
>>68157752
this. I like Louie, but this is so fucking pretentious and retarded
HELLA FUCKING EPIC
>He's now in the Red instead of in the Black
TOP KEK
>>68157752
It was retarded as fuck desu, maybe if he had done it a couple of years ago when he was on top of the bull it could've worked.
>>68154191
He's in debt because he funded the show by taking out debt instead of selling equity after his initial outlays. Totally normal.
He could have done it other ways, but he didn't, and there is nothing wrong with debt in this situation.
He also indicated this debt is only short-term and the show is projected to make everything back by this summer, and then he will be selling it to other sources and expects to make money from it.
It's like when Kanye announced how much debt he had from investing in his own projects, both he and Louie have the earning power to pull themselves out of it rather easily.
Good. Hope this liberal jerk goes bankrupt. Make a living making videos him trying to get laid and teaching children how to curse. What a loser.
