You might be wondering how we ended up here, doing a full on award
show for super creepy DMs that were sent by real people. Honestly,
the idea came to us after we put out the first episode of this
show. There was a joke in the episode where Joe said that every
girl likely has a creep in their DMs at this very moment. We ended
up posting a clip of that joke, and it didn’t take long for women
to start commenting about how many weird DMs they get on a regular
basis. It seemed like the theory was true, so we started
brainstorming ways to incorporate creepy DMs into a video concept.
There’s no shortage of leaked celebrity DMs (looking at you Adam
Levine), but then it hit us: we have a big audience of people who
are telling us they have creepy DMs, so why don’t we just source
the DMs for the viewers. So we asked everyone to submit screenshots
of the creepiest DMs they ever received to Greg. 300+ emails later
and Greg narrowed down the absolute weirdest, creepiest, bizarre
DMs, and they do not disappoint. Then Joe had the idea of
presenting them like an award show. Once that concept was in the
mix, we couldn’t shake the idea, so we bought an award, got our
tuxes cleaned, and found a bottle of champagne. It may have been
the most we laughed during a shoot in a long time. The champagne
started hitting and Joe was genuinely shocked by the things he was
reading. We also decided to have Frankie provide commentary about
the winners that we could add in between categories to break up the
video and add another comedic element. Then we polished off the
bottle of champagne and headed to Danny Lopriore’s comedy show. All
in all, it was a top 10 work day. And thanks to everyone who
actually submitted. We love the idea of getting view ers involved
this way, and have some other big ideas coming down the pipeline.
And to all the women out there, we don’t know how you do it. These
DMs are absurd, but you are stronger and more resilient than we
could ever be. Enjoy the show. Learn more about your ad choices.
