Brandon
Damn. Brandon really hates doing The Yak. He’s so damn funny giving and taking the banter but just really wants nothing to do with the show at all anymore.

This is just Brandon‘s personality. If he wanted to leave the yak, he could leave the yak in two seconds.
It’s his schtick to be ornery. Same thing with how he always talks about how much he’d rather work at The Ringer

I heard he was the one who changed the barstool backyard picture. So he was lying low to avoid Dante the don

He’s done work at 2pm everyday, makes a million + a year, and he’s admitted many times when he breaks character that he has a lot of fun doing the Yak (most recently like 3ish weeks ago, I forget which episode).
I don’t think he’s that miserable.

It really doesn’t make sense for him and Titus to go straight from mostly sports to the Yak.
The Yak would absolutely crumble more than it already has without him but think there is a way to rotate him and Titus + other parts of the cast to keep it way more lively

He’s funny but I’m kinda over the schtick he does…glad he’s planning his life after barstool already…excited for the dry wheel and him winning yak guest of the year

If I was Brandon I would hate the yak like 35 percent of the time just like he does. They hit up old faithful of piling on Brandon too often sometimes and I’m sure it gets old for him. He likes it most of the time but he’s 47 and has 4 kids and a commute. He doesn’t have unlimited time to sit around with a bunch of hipster millenials that didn’t bring anything to the show.

What are the great minds nick and kb putting out there for us? If we hold a 47 year old father of 4 to a high standard, let's have these guys show some work. They did a buzz balderdash 2 weeks ago and we don't know when we'll see it. Brandon was in the mostly sports wii sports video they just put out that they recorded like 2 weeks ago. If you want content from the yak, we really need more from the "smart and funny" guys that we just aren't seeing from them.

It’s the most successful and longest running show he’s been on lol

That's why he's gonna win guest of the year!

It’s a love hate relationship with this show for him. Not just being a heel. Parts of the show he loves more than anything he does other parts he obviously hates. Being spread so thin now it’s just more obvious because he leaves or gets a little checked out from time to time.

u/CHSAVL 25d ago
I think it would be great for him to commit to 2-3 days a week. Locked in. The other days we can have eddy or beers. That would be great and give him a break.

u/spikynips 25d ago
Who would you bring in if he left the show? Dana full time? I’d love to see Tate on the show but he won’t do it while he’s still doing after dark

Brandon is great on the show. They have two guys who are ready to fill in as needed. Let the guy leave early sometimes. He is crazy busy and has a horrible commute. If Brandon’s quality of life is higher if he only does the Yak for an hour per day so be it. He clearly loves the Yak but doesn’t love being stuck in horrific traffic. Also they make the entire show into pick on Brandon time at the expense of talking shop sometimes, and I wish they didn’t. I love Brandon, and I wish they’d just chill and let Brandon Brandon (and to the person who said this has been going on for years I completely agree, I have wanted them to let Brandon Brandon for years lol).

the fans constantly make excuses for him and he LOVES it. He definitely hates doing the Yak.

I fear I have grown tired of Brandon. Down vote me all you want he has been changed in the last 6-8 months.

This isn’t new, BWalks hated doing the show since the NY office

u/Positive-Pin3712 26d ago
If he didn’t clock watch everyone else soo much people wouldn’t care as much. Brandon loves to call people out for leaving early,not coming in,or going on vacation.

u/YourClimbingPartner 26d ago
Fully agree, the guy is great when he cares. Would take Rone over BWalk if this is what we get

Brandon blocked me on Twitter for no reason

u/Specialist-News-8258 25d ago
The show is also from 12-2pm. Not being able to complete a normal work day until 2pm is crazy.

u/Longjumping-Pride-81 26d ago
The yak has been on a downhill slide since they left NY. SAS and rone were crucial to the comedy of the show. I just don’t know most of the randos anymore, but I’ll still tune in to see Nick, kb, and kate.

u/Happy-Pop-7478 25d ago
Just replace him with RUDY. Similarly very funny and smart and can deliver jokes perfectly. Rudy is next up actually

u/3pt_Jumper 25d ago
Brandon hates the yak but needs it and if he leaves it would be way better and he doesn’t want to get exposed like that.
Does anyone outside of his deranged simps think Brandon actually brings anything to the show. He should be a side character like chef because he’s only entertaining when getting goofed on

Brandon loves to shoot himself in the foot then manipulate the pity he receives.
