andyman Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I think Adam P gets better and better at what he does tbh. Most people would call it quits pretty quickly if they received the amount of hate he has received. But the man wakes up every day knowing he's not going to work, all he needs to think about is Newcastle. What a life man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) I like Adam P, his content is extremely dodgy in a lot of ways but he has his audience and he’s working at it every week. Can’t complain about that. The away trips where he doesn’t mention the match and shows you a budget hotel in Croydon are classics. Why anyone watches, I don’t know, but somehow they do Edited August 5, 2023 by AyeDubbleYoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 There's more than one way to skin a cat and no one way is correct, you just do you and make the most of your small insignificant time on this rock. But Adam P is chronic watching mind, but he's not alone in that! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Production and entertainment is better than stat screens most of the time, I'd rather watch Rory Jennings saying idiotic shite and arguing with Adam Mckola in a studio with good sound and lighting than I would watching a detailed stat analysis by some uncharismatic lad in his bedroom. Simple as. I still watch both though, but there is more merit in simple entertainment the majority of the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are allowed to have different interests like, what one person finds boring, others find interesting. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean others aren't allowed to like it, and get some entertainment value from it. It's essential like watching reality TV, like Love Island but for men, you're just watching other people do things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Loved the clips on Adams video of the players meeting the kids before the show. Was pissing myself at Adam signing shirts after it thinking about the fume it’d give a few on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Pinkman Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Alcott is the only one I’d listen to and by listen to I mean have on in the background while I put the washing on, or something like that. Sometimes I’d don’t mind putting some mindless drivel on in the background while doing chores and half listening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Met Adam P in USA. Kinda feel sorry for him. Have a feeling he’s quite lonely a lot of the time. Would be interesting if anyone on here personally knows him that knows otherwise as imagine he doesn’t have many friends just fans. He’s quite awkward when trying to talk to him. Guessing he might have ASD. Quite timid and struggles with eye contact and very weak handshake. Suppose he’s still quite young also. Heard quite a few Americans commenting that he was miserable etc but think they were oblivious to his likely condition. Kinda rooting for him in this career of his if for nothing else but to help him make him more comfortable sociably. Which I know seems a very odd thing to say in his actual line of work. Can’t fault his dedication to the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be lack of engagement in the handshake as opposed to weak, could mean shaking a finger etc and don't discount masking.

Nope, never heard of it until now. I'll have to check a bit deeper. I'm a terrible handshaker for what it's worth, never seems natural and usually I just copy what the other does, squeeze, hold longer or whatever.
