Rory Farrell is speaking out after getting fired from the Joe Budden Podcast.
It’s been rocky for the past few weeks; fans noticed back in March host Rory and Mal’s sudden departure. The two returned to the show, but the audio leaked yesterday, and it revealed how Joe feels about Rory.
Joe officially fired Rory yesterday (May 11) for his “dark energy, arrogance, and entitlement.” In the leaked audio, Joe said, “Since Rory feels like he has so many options here, somehow he still feels like he’s running the show. He feels like he’s entitled to more. Rory, you are in breach of your contract. And from this point forward, you are fired, and you are not welcome back.”
Rory responded on social media and tweeted, “Man .. what an era. Thank you to everyone that listened, supported, told their friends about us, bought a subscription, ticket, or merch .. any value starts & ends with y’all.. I’ll get to that messy sh*t soon, but in the meantime, I’m here to celebrate an amazing run!! Love.” In another Tweet, he jokingly said,
“I just read that back, and it sounded like the Bow Wow ‘Thank You’ record smfh [pouring tears crying emoji].” Take a look:

After news broke that Joe fired Rory, Joe said,
“Friend or not, I’m NEVER funding someone’s sabotage of me, that will NEVER happen,” said Budden. “I get far away from the threat…. You can think piece until your face turns blue.”
