Unofficial Behind the Bastards Podcast Community

[SIDEBAR IS A WORK IN PROGRESS]

Rule #0: Criticism of Sophie will not be tolerated and may result in a permanent ban. Yes, forever.

Rule #1: No fascists. No tankies. No exceptions.

Rule #2: Criticism of guests is against policy and will be removed. This was request by Robert Evans on the Reddit community. Also because they are guests and we should make them feel welcome, because we are at least 40% not assholes.

Rule #3: Be nice to each other. You can argue all you want but you can't fight.

Rule #4: No threats. No encouragement or glorification of violence. Being happy about dead Hitler is fine, but you can't plan Nazi assassinations here.

Rule #5: Content must be related to Behind the Bastards and Cool Zone Media content or other Robert Evans projects. The extended universe, for example content by Jamie Loftus, Katy Stoll and Cody Johnston, Jason Pargin, is probably okay, too.

Rule #6: Posts about ads on the podcast may be removed. Everyone already knows Reagan Coin and Chumba happened.

I went to the same art school Thomas Kinkade did, and he even came to speak at my school a handful of times while I was there.

Even back then I hated his work so much I knew I would never like the man, so I never went to his talks and tried my best to avoid even looking at his works.

I am so glad to hear that Robert Evans decided to cover Thomas Kinkade on Behind The Bastards. Fuck Thomas Kinkade.

Thank all that is good he's dead. Yet another grave to add to the bucket lists of graves to defile.

*Second evil-est painter.

I think it's fair to say he's the evilest painter known primarily for being a painter

Never heard of the guy. Can someone give a tl;dr?

As far as I can tell, he's just some dude who could paint idyllic cottages. He managed to make millions from doing typical shady businessman shit, selling franchise deals to as many people as possible so they could resell prints of his paintings.

Also some sexual assault and substance abuse stuff.

"In 2006, John Dandois, Media Arts Group executive, recounted a story that on one occasion six years previously, Kinkade became drunk at a Siegfried & Roy magic show in Las Vegas and began shouting "Codpiece! Codpiece!" at the performers. Eventually he was calmed by his mother."
