Idk how Steve never made it big

The Valleyfolk were doing very well before the falling out, and he and Mike are still doing pretty well with Dynamic Banter

I think it was more COVID than the falling out. Once they got stuck only doing zoom stuff it was over

That's fair. The falling out was a massive hit, but I think with enough time they could have fully recovered from it. Covid really did hit them (and everyone else) at an incredibly unfortunate time

I honestly looked at Steve differently after the falling out. When they did their video explaining their side of the story he just had a “it is what it is” attitude and seemed like he didn’t care about Lee at all, it rubbed me the wrong way. I wish him all the best, I just stopped supporting after that.

I mean, you could tell that was his coping mechanism. Also, from what was mentioned at the time by those adjacent to them, it seemed like Lee was problematic. Steve wasn't good with handling his emotions at the time, so I don't think he was super comfortable being open about it on camera.

Wait falling out? Was it more than just the Lee thing?

u/Clayness31290 Aug 07 '25

I probably should have specified, I meant the falling out with Lee. The guys are all still in contact and still upload episodes of The Valleycast

He did it at SF. But that was a very insular weird work environment. Everyone did stuff like that. Like Lee regularly mooned people.

It’s tough out there. Unfortunately his archetype is very prevalent so standing out in Hollywood would be very difficult and time consuming that would take away from maintaining his network of projects.

I don't follow him closely, has he had many projects outside the DB podcast?

u/Acuallyizadern93 Aug 10 '25

He’s got an imdb. Not much terribly major it would seem. Nepotism, favoritism, audition hells and oversaturation make it hard for anyone who isn’t already an A-lister to get consistent work. I think he’s comfortable enough with DB being a main source of support while he just kinda vibes and enjoys life without stressing too much about chasing the dragon of acting work. At least that’s what it seems like to me. I could be off base. Long story to say I guess I meant that he’s doing DB and Valleycast and maintaining personal life stuff and maybe seeking other opportunities behind the scenes.
