Benjy vs. Marbles, Inc. feat. Don Buchwald and his Star Pelican client

I know. So what?
Just like when Howard sued Sirius for a bigger bonus? He claimed the subs picked up from the XM merger were subs he added.
Is that getting paid twice? The squeaky wheel gets the grease. I don't fault Benjy at all. If he's serious fine. If this is for entertainment and to annoy Howard that's fine too. Howard needs more people to pull this shit.
So it's in line with the shit he's making up now.
Again, WTF does he want to get paid for in addition to writing jokes?

No that's not remotely the same premise.
I see you're just a worker bee happy to get his minimum wage and has no interest in pushing to get more. Do you bitch this much about executives stealing and screwing the middle class man? It's benjy fucking with the system.
A false equivalence deflection to Howard suing Sirius doesn't answer WTF Benjy wants to get paid twice for.
Oh please Rum Balls. They are both ridiculous requests. For some reason you're mad at Benjy but not so much at Howard. Just admit you're jealous of Benjy.
Why was Howard's request ridiculous? He thought he should get a bonus for the XM subscribers, due to a merger which couldn't have happened without him. I can see how he lost the case, but it wasn't ridiculous.
As far as Benjy, still no answer to what he wants to get paid twice for.
Maybe you have a little crush on him...
I already said I think Benjy rules. I'm not hiding my love of him. You however are most def missing a key point in this discussion.
Benjy gets paid to write jokes.
What does he want to get paid twice for? Howard using his jokes?
As far as I can tell, that's what he wants. If his joke is mentioned in a book, he wants to get paid again.
And btw Howard's interviews don't seem like they're packed with Benjy jokes. Another stupid fucking rabbit hole. He's pissed off that he wasn't mentioned.

The writing credit is his big gripe. Not getting paid. He sees the writing on the wall and knows he will need to find a new job when Howie packs it up. He wants those credits on his imdb page or resume or whatever the fuck. I completely see his point of view. Plus he knows he's irritating Howard and that's just a bonus.
He's an annoying mental case who gets paid to write jokes.
He has Stern writing credits on his IMdB page. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0111444/
Ok. You win.
I think the issue is Buckwald PROMISED Benjy credit in the book, and Howard didn't give it to him.
Plus, Howard seriously belittled Benjy for decades (we all are made to think Benjy is a loser) and yet the truth is Benjy has a big job on the Show.
Howard will not allow the truth to come out.

Why did Howard want credit for creating "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader"?

If he was told that he'd be compensated by Buchwald for future repackaging of material, then it's on them, not Benjy. I think he would have been happy with a single acknowledgement in the book.
I detest Benjy. However, he must be smart enough to counter Howard's argument. Howard benefits when all his "writers" contribute on the air. Howard's job is to fill 4 hours. If I worked there, I'd either write only or be paid as talent. Howard gets writers/talent/pranksters and when it comes to pay them he says you are only a writer. It's a pyramid scheme. All money goes to the Haggard queen. Bengy is horrific on the air though, in my humble opinion.
Maybe I can provide a possible reason: As vehemently and obsessively mad he is at Benjy now, back at DS he spent a good 6 months just as vehemently and obsessively defending Benjy's ex big titted ho, Eliza Schwartz who he dumped. Everybody but he were mocking that stupid podcast she did; he was passionately defending each episode and her.
At that point I was speculating that Rum Balls was her dad or another relative in order to have such a polarized positive opinion on someone who was so obviously useless.
So maybe his axe to grind with Benjy is personal considering Bronk used and abused her... ya think?
Interesting. I don't remember any of that at DS. What's the deal @Rum Balls ??? Or should I say MR. SCHWARTZ????
Benjy wrote many of the questions Howard has asked over 20 yrs
Benjy didnt ask for anything other than acknowledgement for his contribution
credit isnt always money,
But for Howard to prance around and act like HE DID EVERYTHING, EVER,
60 PEOPLE
and not one credit gave?
Now his Ringo story is a fucking lie,
cold ass liar

Sorry babe, this looks like my mp3 is truncated. Might this have been scrubbed? @ARM can you possibly upload it?
Sure. Remind me again, what gay and gay crime is this? My harddrive is starting to look like the Bryan Singer's pool parties now.
What a scripted Sh*t-Show that is.
