TWiT.tv Scam #1: "CPM"

The lies from these crooks start from the very first moment you express interest in advertising on the sordid, sleazy, toxic TWiT.tv.

They will coerce you into believing that "Cost Per Impression" or CPM is absolutely, positively, so definitely the best way to go. Bullshit. Bullshit. Bullshit.

What this vile, repulsive, poisonous con-man isn't telling you is that the CPM marketing they're duping you with transfers ALL of the financial risk of your advertising campaign to YOU, while guaranteeing that THEY will get your hard-earned money no matter how badly the ads perform in generating actual sales. Just carry on looking at this appalling list of companies who figured this out too late and aborted their devastating relationship with the toxic TWiT.tv after only a few ads. They will try to reinforce Scam #1 by hoping to impress you with pitiful, artificially inflated episode download numbers. Forget about it. Having a perverted, womanizing, sexual predator read half-hearted faked ads to a rapidly diminishing and ever-more alienated audience will simply not give you the marking results you are expecting. They know this, they conceal this from you, and that is why these crooks enforce a no-cancellation policy. See TWiT.tv Scam #7 below for further details.

TWiT.tv Scam #2: "Contacting Your Competitors"

So, you've paid an absolute fortune to have a morbidly obese, failed 90's TV has-been, perverted, salacious womanizing sexual predator and shameless adulterer to promote your product - things couldn't possibly get any worse, right? WRONG!

Then the prices go up! How? Not content with stealing your money, this shameless, greedy, evil woman will then set about callously contacting YOUR OWN COMPETITORS trying to coerce you both into an advertising bidding war. "This other company has offered us so much MORE money, money, money! You wouldn't want us to start running their ads instead now would you???"

This shameful pattern repeats over and over and over again. One minute Leo "Dick Pic" Laporte is trying to convince his audience about how Harry's offers the best possible shave ever and how he loves his Harry's and how he uses it ALL THE TIME! Five-minutes-later, no, forget all about that - Dollar Shave Club offers the best possible shave ever, Leo Laporte loves them like no other and he absolutely, definitely, positively uses THEIR product all the time!

Tune in one day and scam-artist Leo Laporte will try to con you into believing that nobody beats Wealthfront for investment handling. Come back the next day and now pay no attention to everything he told you before, suddenly nobody beats Betterment for investment handling. Want your photos nicely presented? "I love Framebridge!" claimed con-man Leo Laporte. It only took THREE ADS before scheming gold-digger Lisa Laporte had duped competitor Fracture into paying more for ads instead. Warby Parker were foolish enough to use TWiT.tv to advertise their eyeware. The result? These crooks immediately reached out and started talking to their competitors, Felix Gray, to encourage them to pay more instead. "Hey Squarespace, just look at how much money Wordpress have offered us! It would be a real shame if we had to start promoting their product instead now wouldn't it?" "So Linda.com, are you going to pay a LOT more or should we start running ads for MasterClass instead?" Leo Laporte, Lisa so-called "Laporte" and the sleazy TWiT.tv - reprehensible, morally bankrupt individuals who are rotten right from the outside to their very core.

TWiT.tv Scam #3: "Will Lie For Cash"

College drop-out, general know-nothing and blatant tech fraud, Leo Laporte, has never successfully completed the study of any subject whatsoever and that includes advertising and marketing. Like everything else in his pitiful life (and replete with his trademark lazy disdain and disinterest) he just makes it up as he waddles along hoping that nobody notices.

For example, he once heard that claiming you actually use whatever crap it is you're trying to peddle will make an ad appear more credible. As a result, this con-man now repeats this lie at the start of every single ad he reads - it's all he's got, it's all he knows, it's the total extent of his limited advertising skills.

Like the boy who cried wolf, it's a lie that no longer holds ANY credibility. It's used so often that every time a lower-third advertising banner pops up on screen, his audience just laughs at him.

TWiT.tv Scam #4: "The Bricks"

As if it wasn't bad enough that he cons his advertisers into funding his sordid, sleazy, hedonistic lifestyle, the morally-bankrupt Leo "Dick Pic" Laporte has no qualms about swindling his audience and getting them to part with their own cash too.

In the early days of TWiT, before he cheated on his wife with the office slut and had to give away 50% of TWiT LLC in the resulting divorce settlement, and also before he had to financially support his two lazy, indolent, layabout kids, Leo Laporte invited his audience to buy over-priced, commemorative bricks (costing hundreds of dollars each) with which to decorate the new studio and "support the building of a great podcast network."

The very minute that this money started rolling in, vile braggart Leo Laporte began gloating about the several-times-a-year luxury vacations he could apparently now afford, along with the multiple expensive cars, the new houses, and countless other extravagances. "My toilet cost $3000!" gloated Leo Laporte several times, being just one of many sickening examples.

Thanks entirely to the ineptitude of hopeless CEO and shameless gold-digger Lisa "Yoko" Laporte that studio is now long gone.

And, curiously, so are all of those eye-wateringly expensive "commemorative bricks" - they're now all in landfill...

TWiT.tv Scam #5: "The Tip Jar"

"It costs a thousand dollars an hour to run TWiT!" regularly claims Leo Laporte in one of his most often used and blatant compulsive lies.

"It costs a thousand dollars an hour to keep a professional gold-digger sexually interested in me!" would be rather more accurate.

Not satisfied with lying through his crooked teeth to his advertisers, not content with abusing and insulting his audience (your paying customers), and with no remorse after sacking dozens of employees who dare to stand up to his abusive behavior, Leo "Dick Pic" Laporte has the audacity to run a "Tip Jar" on the main TWiT web-site where he attempts to fleece even more money out of people to fund extravagant purchases like this.

TWiT.tv Scam #6: "Cheating Your Wife, TWICE"

You've been secretly cheating on your wife and kids with a second-rate book-keeper and shameless nymphomaniac at work and your tawdry, sleazy affair has been accidentally publicly exposed live on air! As a result, you've been kicked out of the family home, and, unable to cope with seeing that loving family home destroyed by your selfish and salacious actions, your daughter is now on suicide-watch in a critical care institution following her mental collapse. To top everything off, your wife now wants a divorce and her fair share of the family business.

So, NOW what do you do? Compulsive liar, sex pervert, shameless adulterer, con-man and know-nothing tech fraud Leo Laporte immediately proceeded to conspire along with the above mentioned evil, scheming book-keeper to make sure his long-suffering wife got as little as possible.

Today, those who are foolish enough to sign up to advertise on TWiT.tv, rather suspiciously are always asked to divert all of their payments to a separate company instead - Artisanal Agency LLC. Why would that be? Does that sound legitimate to you? The answer is simple - by redirecting all income through this fake new company instead of the original TWiT LLC, Laporte and his whore get out of paying alimony to his long-suffering ex-wife. Can you BELIEVE this cheating sleaze-ball???

Are there really NO DEPTHS to which Leo Laporte's cowardly, pathetic, weaselly behavior won't sink to? If he will readily cheat the mother of his own children, and do it not once but TWICE, how much do you think this con-man will be concerned about cheating YOU?

TWiT.tv Scam #7: "No refunds!"

If no due-diligence has been carried out beforehand, then within a matter of a few days it becomes readily apparent to new advertisers just what a mistake they've made by approaching a womanizing pervert who exposes himself live on air, his gold-digging, home-wrecking mistress, and the sleazy, sex-scandal infested advertising network TWiT.tv. The empty promises of being exposed to a "tech-savvy, high-income and engaged audience" quickly evaporate.

Instead, it is their ruse that is now exposed. Your monumental mistake is shockingly apparent and you're at least $25,000 out-of-pocket. Worst of all, these scammers are laughing all the way to the bank.

Umm, you did read the small-print before handing over all of that money, didn't you?

Your first advertising run on TWiT.tv is completely non-cancellable? Now just WHY would that be? It's supposed to be easy access to a "tech-savvy, high-income and engaged audience" remember? Why would anyone possibly be considering cancelling so soon?!?

This web site should answer that question for you and we're sorry that you didn't find us sooner because now it is too late. Your advertising budget has already been squandered - funding the disgraceful, hedonistic lifestyle of a dangerous psychiatric pervert with narcissistic personality disorder.
