History

YouTuber Paul Parkey (known as PaulsEgo) became the fourth member of the podcast's permanent staff in 2016. In 2017 Billy the Fridge became the fifth regular host.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}} As of December 2017, the podcast had produced 414 episodes.^[3]{{primary inline|date=November 2018}}

Milo Yiannopoulos

In January, 2016, media personality Milo Yiannopoulos was a guest of the show. During the 3-hour long episode Yiannopoulos said that sexual relationships between 13-year-old boys and adult men and women can "happen perfectly consensually", as some children are sexually and emotionally mature enough to consent to sex with adults.^[6][6][7][8] In February 2017 the politically conservative blog The Reagan Battalion posted on Twitter a segment of the Drunken Peasants episode.^[9] Following widespread criticism of Yiannopoulos's comments, he was removed from his position as a speaker at the Conservative Political Action Conference.^[10][11] In an interview with TJ Kirk on The Joe Rogan Experience, host Joe Rogan remarked to Kirk that "Your podcast was the big podcast that kind of sunk Milo", to which Kirk commented that he had known what he had gotten himself into by inviting Yiannopoulos on the podcast, while also stating that the podcasts's impact on Yiannopoulos had been unintentional.^[12]

Video clips and news articles were often shown, with commentary made by the podcast's hosts towards said media taking up the majority of an episode's run-time. Episodes are typically divided into segments, such as Troll or Not a Troll, in which the hosts determine whether or not a content creator is an internet troll; Feminist Slam Poetry, in which the hosts criticize feminist poems; The Information Segment, in which a random article from Wikipedia was read; DP Action News, in which clips or articles from mainstream news outlets are discussed; Crazy People, in which videos of content creators are viewed and critiqued; Cutting the Fat, in which old, usually poorly-made videos of the hosts were viewed and mocked; and The Individual Brett Keane Segment Situation, in which videos or articles written by a born again Christian YouTuber named Brett Keane are mocked.^[3]{{Non-primary source needed|date=March 2019}}
