HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT: DnD, Cinema for Cynics, Fighting Boys, and The Great Reunification!
🕑 Added 2022-01-04 16:15:54 +0000 UTCUPDATE: Patreon exclusive longer episode to be performed LIVE tomorrow for our $7+ patrons. $5 patrons will receive access after the livestream ends. Also, early access to the first month's worth of episodes of our remastered Season 1 of Dank Dungeons & Drunken Dragons will also be released tomorrow for our $7+ patrons.
Content calendar in the next post for $7+ patrons summarizing upcoming exclusive releases and livestreams.
To switch to our new $7 tier, follow these instructions: https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000126286-How-do-I-edit-my-membership-
To get the best deal possible, switch to the $7 tier first and then switch to an annual membership by following these instructions: Annual membership details – Patreon Help Center By doing this, you will get 2 months FREE of the $7 tier annual membership. For our $5 patrons, that's only $10 more than you would have paid this year. Any questions you have about how annual memberships work should also be answered with this link.
Here's a summary of our announcements and new tier:
Today, we remedy the errors of the past! No longer will our content be separated into two separate and unequal tiers! BEHOLD: THE RENAISSANCE OF REUNIFICATION HAS BEGUN!
For the single low price of $7 a month, you will receive as PATRON EXCLUSIVES:
- The Grease Trap LIVE every Tuesday
- Monthly LIVE Episodes of ONION NUGGETZ! (1-2 a month) on Wednesdays
- Patron’s Only LIVE Episodes of Deep Fat Fried (2-3 a month) PLUS Patron’s Only Pre-Recorded Episodes of Deep Fat Fried (1-2 a month) - EXCLUSIVE EPISODES EVERY SINGLE FRIDAY!
- Monthly Patron’s Only LIVE Abandon Hope w/TJ!
- Monthly Patron’s Only LIVE Highdeology w/Paul!
- Monthly Patron’s Only LIVE Ask Hollywood Love w/Hollywood Love!
- Early Access to Dank D&D Episodes (You get the entire month’s worth on the 1st Saturday of every month, and it’s completely ad-free!)
- Monthly Patron’s Only Cinema for Cynics Review or Commentary!
- Monthly Patron’s Only LIVE Fighting Boys Stream!
- “BEHIND THE SCENES” look at our projects and upcoming content, via our content calendar!
- Access to our MASSIVE BACK CATALOG of content, including: Private Episodes, Abandon Hopes, Highdeologies, Grease Traps, Flash Frieds, and MUCH MORE!
- Exclusive access to Patron Polls, Community Interaction, Merch Coupons, Exclusive Pessimist Productions News, and MUCH MORE!
NOTE: With the live performed patron episodes, there will be a 5 week rotating schedule: 3 weeks of live shows followed by 2 weeks of recorded shows. Those 2 weeks of recorded shows will be when you get the Patreon exclusive Onion Nuggetz streams. This is the recording schedule we’ve been using for a long time, and it allows us time to refresh our episode ideas and to create side content.
The $5 and $10 tiers have now been UNPUBLISHED. We are Pessimists of our word though. Should you wish to stay on the tier you joined, you can! HOWEVER, if you leave your current tier, you will not be able to return and will only have the $7 tier option.
- For our $10 legacy tier members, EVERYTHING in the $7 tier is included! Tons of extra live content, the only change for you is that The Grease Trap will be once weekly instead of twice weekly.
- For our $5 legacy tier members, you will essentially retain your current benefits, but you will unfortunately miss out on: GREASE TRAPS, CINEMA FOR CYNICS CONTENT, FIGHTING BOYS CONTENT, DANK D&D CONTENT, ASK HOLLYWOOD LOVE CONTENT, and you won’t be able to watch Friday Episodes LIVE (though you will still receive them after the live streams).
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us here on Patreon, and we will assist you.

Scammed again. 4 months later no Cinema For Cynics. Paul you lazy fuck.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thank you for your generosity!
Randar Zalthor
I tend to be behind when watching, I never watch live as I'm sometimes a week behind in the backlog of life. I am however, keeping myself set to $10 as honestly, you guys deserve it for the entertainment.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thanks for upgrading!
Casey Grapperhaus
Just bought a year. Thanks for the discount.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
thanks for your generosity!
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Welcome back!
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
We have access to the files, it's just a matter of trying to find the most suitable alternative host
Canadian Attack Moose
Honestly great announcement, glad to see Senor Tomat get a moment, Hollywood Love has been missed, and 2022 can use a little love. Well presented Tj. I’m staying at the ten tier cause you guys deserve that and much more.
The True Nihilist
Ah yes the Great Unification of Taiwan into China.
Thomas H.
So much contento! This is awesome! I signed up again after I saw this. Glad to be back tomatinos.
Zebedee Totty
Hey guys please keep trying to get your old movie commentary's from vimeo, it was that content that made me become a patreon in the first place, and imo your guys commentary of hell comes to frogtown is one of the funniest things i have seen, i actually have a majority of them downloaded but im missing frogtown, if you want i can re upload what i have for you guys
YoOoOoOoO
YES!
Xenos Nassar
By paying per year I'm only paying like $10 more per year and getting more content so I don't understand why anyone would have a problem. They're not even getting rid of the $5 tier.
Xenos Nassar
I noticed sometimes it's there and another time it wasn't. Try rechecking the membership edit on the website.
Isaiah Miller
If you were a 10 dollar patron you save $156 per year. I'm assuming you weren't otherwise you had your math wrong.
hell's abomination
So if I cancel my 5$ membership I will have access to the 7$ option? Because I cant see the options to switch
Edvard Lundgren
It's a shame too, since Grease Traps are one of my favorite types of content that the guys put out (at least nowadays when no election is looming).
Edvard Lundgren
Huh, I guess you just saved me $36 per year. Thanks!
Jeigh
I am so excited for new Dank D&D. I don't play or follow D&D so after the adventure you guys took us on I was told of other people who do online D&D campaign's. It didn't take me long to realize I wasn't going to get the same quality of entertainment elsewhere.
Bård Lilleøien
Lots to look forward to. Can't wait to see all the D&D stuff myself. Villain campaign sounds too cool. I'll sit at the good old Chef's Table for a little while longer. It's comfy here and you guys deserve my 10 monthly bucks.
Bulk Bogan
Señor tomat shirts plz
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thank you, that's very generous of you!
Kyle White
Just gotta say, always enjoy all the content. Drive a lot for my job and nothing keeps me awake and passes the time better than the content of this channel. If there was a 15$ option I'd probably upgrade even, but at the very least I'm sticking with the 10 cause y'all deserve it. Appreciate all you do.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
We'll make sure that our Patreon exclusive Onion Nuggetz are extra special. Today's will be an all public one, and your first all patrons one will be Wednesday, January 26th. Remember that you're also getting the patron episodes performed live the weeks of public Onion Nuggetz, as well as an additional livestream that weekend like Fighting Boys, Ask Hollywood Love, Abandon Hope, and Highdeology.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Yes
Brad The Patreorn
So I get the same content at $7 that I do for $10?
Swampee2346
The last Onion Nuggetz was three and a half hours long. I thought that was amazing, and well worth only having it once or twice a week compared to the weekly flash fried it is replacing. The thing that worries me is the possibility that the episodes may get shorter as time goes on and now I've increased the price of my subscription for less of my favorite show from you guys. Can you say with any assurance what length the average Onion Nuggetz will be? Like a ballpark estimate? Thanks I love ya guys and even if I don't decide to leave my legacy 5 dollar tier I'm sure as hell not unsubscribing, and I'm glad you guys are taking a break from FF for mental reasons.
Duckling Duckins
aight i got the new tier, lets see if we have to cancel this shit alltogether, jk u are doing good atm.
Canadian Comedy
For a group of guys who self describe as being fat lazy stoners they certainly work hard at creating content worth very much past what they charge. I honestly was thinking about upgrading, because I'm an idiot and didn't know there were 2 tiers. Definitely upgrading now for sure. After working a 10-12 hour shift everyday it's always nice to know that most days of the week I can come home and look forward to new content by these dudes. As someone who prefers my solitude it's always great to crack a beer, spark up a joint, fire up a video game, and just play a new or old episode off DFF and laugh my balls of to wind down the day. They offer so much and ask so little. It's kind of like scrolling through Netflix but instead of passing by shit I couldn't care about I'm finding myself wishing there was more time in the day to consume more content. Great announcement today from Cheejay that I have much more to look forward in the upcoming year. Last 2 years have been fucky but this post allows me to believe the part of my brain that craves entertainment is in a much better Sitchooayshun.
Ignar Husky
Luckily I'm already a $10 patron. Sounds like PP about to 'splode into a mass buffet of goodness and contento! Ohh boy!
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Aw, thank you!
Triceracock the Three-Horned Crotch
I immediately switched from $5 to $7, and I plan to get the yearly subscription next paycheck. For a bunch of hipster doofuses you guys fuckin rock.
Chelsea
I'm going to keep giving you guys $10 because I love you
Ben Livingston
Imma stay at the $10 tier cuz I luv ya
Ultra_Jerky
The fart fat boys dun it agin!
Some Caucazoid
why would anyone stop being patreons becuase of this, this is awesome
Some Caucazoid
and cinema for cynics is back fuck yah
Some Caucazoid
yo hell yah ive been waiting for live format again
Smooth
I think I’ll stay at $10 too. But mostly just cause of laziness.
Cloud Massacre
WTF? Trying to Antiscam me out of $3?! No way I’m changing to a lowly $7 a month. Bullshit. I’m staying a $10 NO MATTER WHAT YOU TRY
Jabbawabba
You guys are like five-dollar footlongs except they're actually five dollars and they're 15 inches.
Gage Lamb
You guys were putting WAY too much effort into the Grease Trap for as little people to see them as did. Glad for the new reunification tier, it makes perfect sense.
WoahMoses
Upgrading right NOW!
Jim Mc Nicholas
HOLY MOLY all of the content for an extra euro. Deal.
Daniel Sokoloff
I switched to the new $7, I'm glad to see you paying attention to the metrics, what is and isn't working, and caring about what you do the way we care about it. Thanks guys!
Joey Turkey
This is a really compelling promo. I'll surely stay as a patron the whole year!
Matt Hunkee
You guys have always communicated promises and goals and always follow through with them. It's one of the strongest foundations to your company. I mean the talent show didn't happen because of the pandemic. You guys are men of your word and I have always respected y'all for it.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
The annual option definitely helps to reduce declined payments, meaning you don't miss out on exclusive livestreams!
Joshua Bertrand
Thanks for all the hard work you guys do. I just switched to the Reunification tier, and I like the new annual option. So much more convenient.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
We ain't complaining! Thank you!
Josh Jerome
Fuck that I'm staying $10/monthly. You will take my money and you will like it.
David
Onion Nuggets will be a longer form of a combination of both Flash Fried and Grease Trap. So you're still getting it, just slightly less of both. I don't see how seeing a calendar removes any surprise. You don't necessarily know how they will approach or perform in the episodes. You just know the topic.
HalleyHeroine
The Reunification has come at the perfect time for me! I just switched from $5 to $10 like 3 days ago. And now with my new upgraded Annual Membership, it works out to $5.88 per month for 12 months. All this delicious content for basically the same price!!!
AlterEgoIII
Flash fried, dead. Grease trap, changed and shorter. More short episodes and 1 real one a week. You posted a sheet of all of Januarys content so I can't even get excited when I see a new episode pop up because I already know what it is. I get ya'll are tryna reach a higher audience among other things, but this feels like a total slap in the face to long time supporters such as myself in my opinion.
David
Personally most excited for Cinema for Cynics (as well as Fighting Boys) for the movie reviews/discussions. I hope that includes series occasionally too.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thanks! We're hoping we can get together to do even more D&D content if this goes well.
Michael Sewell
Jesus titty fucking christ! Thats alot of content! LOL. Looking forward to it and I will 100% upgrade to the $7 level. Ps proper happy to see D and D coming back and cinema for cynics! SO TJ, Paul and scotty you may strip me of my money and possibly my cloths!
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
All of our patrons should have gotten an email notification for this post unless they turned their notifications off. It's less GT, but it will be livestreamed now, and we're adding a bunch of other stuff.
Scotty B
Sounds good to me lads . Just upgraded from the $5 (£4) to the $7 (£5.50) Well worth the extra quid and a half ! Cheers for the content 🤘🏴🤘
Sam Myres
I guess I'll give you 3$ less for the same content, that's fine. You should have to email all the other chef's table people and tell them they're wasting $3 and getting less GT now.
John Woodbridge
Great work boys, happy to upgrade to the 7$ tier and pay in advance! Keep up the content boys!
Marc
Very happy to hear you say how much fun youre having with the show, hope you dont get burnt out from all the extra workload though, ill be sure to hit up that yearly sub
NotSteve
Annual membership makes this an easy decision. Great job guys.
Altamonty
Hmmm, should I upgrade? You bet your sweet ass I will! Every year is better than the last on this channel, thank you gentlemen.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
You're not being cheap, you're just being practical! Thank you for your support.
Rob
A bit disappointed about getting less Grease Trap, that’s my favorite show. Excited to see the new IPs though, especially the new live shows.
Nicholas (Azazel Qayin)
I say to you Mr. Tomate, TEAR DOWN THAT WALL!
Zach Watkins
I shall upgrade.
Weez
311 was a hoax.
Brandon Erickson
Downgraded to $7 like a cheap miser but super excited for everything you guys will be doing in 2022, especially the movie reviews I've missed them. Keep up the great work.
David
I probably will too.
David
We can still insult the plebs at least.
Adrian Voss
Let me be the first to say this is awesome! Huzzah! Its time for the Next Era of DFF to begin! Sidenote: Scotty is a scumfuck who did 311 #Scottydid311
Weez
I'm staying at $10 for no reason, so that I can feel superior to the vast majority.
David
Amazing. Yes!
koolmin23
Thank you for breaking down the walls of separation that split the $5 and $10 patrons, racism is now over
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Yay!
KaizerCam
You’re goddamn right I’m upgrading
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thank you, and happy new year to you as well!
Amber Vitale
Congrats guys! Definitely the best podcast, and you all are hard workers! Only Podcast I pay for, so that says a lot! Upgrading! Happy New Year guys!
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Awesome!
Richard Recar
Of course I’m going to upgrade.
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thank you so much! We're looking forward to it too
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
The good news is you can stay in the $5 tier if you wish. We still appreciate your support, and you will get all the Friday episodes and Onion Nuggetz private streams, as well as Abandon Hope still and Highdeology.
Jonathan Conklin
Upgraded halfway through the video. Looking forward to 2022 pessimistic productions

IHaveAName
I'm pretty sure $10 patrons get everything. They just also pay more.
Richard Recar
No thanks
4thHorsman
It's a little weird that if we stay at the $10 we miss out on an episode, but hey more content for less cost
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thanks! We're excited too
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Glad to hear. You won't regret it
PESSIMIST PRODUCTIONS
Thank you! It definitely will.
Alanna C
Upgraded! Excited for you all!
Joe Rader
Verily I must upgrade!
spaceSuicide
Upgraded from 5.00 to 7.00. Hope 2022 has lots of delicious content.
