Son of a Boy Dad: Ep. 70 - Francis Ellis Returns to Barstool HQ

[@ebitdareadthebook1535]

Francis was hands down one of Barstools best, and funniest employees. They need to bring him back ASAP.

[@Blinkystop1]

Sorry. You’re only allowed to have Glenny Balls and Marty Mush

[@junkerjorg2]

Only reason he was fired is because Dave only keeps fats around to boost his ego. Francis was too good looking

[@keenannolan3068]

Agree 100000%

[@ericfh]

Dave on the DPS said he would be open to it if Francis is willing to come back

[@raiusdaltar1483]

Always loved Francis

[@Papacarnivore15]

Best episode I’ve seen. Re-hire Francis ASAP and he would be an instant hit either as a guest in this show or adding him to the show. The interaction of Rhone, Sas and Francis is super funny and witty and a must watch!! Also, I just learned that Francis and Sas are going to be touring together as a comedy duo/team as “FranSas”, so they already know each other well from the comedy circuit and are friends as well. HEY DAVE AND ERICA…. RE-HIRE FRANCIS PLEEEEEEESE!!!!!!

[@scatj20]

Francis is all-time man, his work with Wonton Don is still my favorite barstool content

[@samscott3505]

Absolutely

[@oklahomasooner7686]

Francis’s Lobster Man story is one of the best stories of all time.

[@Amanda86]

Most of my Barstool experience started after Francis was fired. Enjoyed getting to know him here. Fun guy

[@HandyHan4]

yea what a great guy Francis is ,., the way he talked up SAS , what a guy !!

[@meat5874]

He made one mistake in an attempt to be funny and Dave won’t even give him a chance. Francis would be a top 5 personality/blogger/comic at barstool

[@ChaseCache]

he made multiple mistakes in a month

[@Jim900]

Dave just hated him and needed a reason

[@J_Rio11]

That incident sealed his fate but it had been building.

[@chriswhamilton]

@@Jim900 Dave was in a bad place at that time. The pressure was getting to him. He took it out on Francis.

[@etb10]

Let Francis fight in RnR. If he wins he comes back.

[@ilikemyowncomments9065]

I love this idea. Just make sure it isn't a lobsterman...

[@rbankos]

1:46 into this is the reason this guy got fired… asking if anyone found her yet? Are you kidding me?

[@grettgaming7697]

Re hire Francis !!

[@kdrey1320]

Francis invokes his first amendment and gets a 3 year suspension and deshaun Cosby is about to get like 6 months for 20+ settled civil lawsuits

[@nvmm166]

Francis was fired for making a mild joke about a girl who was a call her daddy fan who went missing, he had reason to believe she just ran away as her social media was still alittle active. Dave fired Francis because he didn’t like him, thought he was using barstool, Dave’s and idiot and now since covid barstools office content is dead

[@Esotericdactyl]

dudes that wear tshirts over sweatshirts dont like francis

[@TheEasyLifee]

It's really disappointing hearing all you guys say u hated the last case race. The case races are fucking legendary, fuck anyone who had anything negative to say. Idk how anyone could watch thr yak, then the case race and be disappointed. It really sucks hearing every one of you talk about how much everyone hated it.

[@johnnybarrett5077]

He’s doin real well at standup though, I think that’s where he really belongs. He needs that freedom

seems fine without barstool, they did him dirty. lot of dead weight still hanging on over there somehow but they fire him.

[@ChaseCache]

@@BxGxW he was a liability that wasn't putting barstool first

He needs barstool more than they need him. He’s back for a reason. He never put barstool first and lil sas will do the same thing soon.

[@Hector.Zeroni]

Bless Rone’s heart for sticking by Sas. Incredibly bad at podcasting.

[@MRasey22]

Francis should sub in full time

[@BigAl4Chron]

I don’t understand why people have any interest in Sas. He isn’t funny, interesting, or even talkative. Reminds me of the dude that’s just around cause he’s a friend of a friend and is quiet the whole time. I really don’t get the appeal but I see people commenting how funny he is on various barstool videos

[@cw323553]

Knew this story but wasn’t big barstool when Francis was there and don’t think I’m his target audience. That being said 5 minutes into this you can see he is more talented than 95 percent on the company.

[@patarcher9199]

What is his target audience?

[@timmycerteza3378]

Yeah Francis is a stand up dude. It would be great to get him back at barstool. Dude moves the needle

48:13 Rone and Francis talking about hanging out with each other and friends and being normal, socially unawkward humans…. and Sas quietly sitting there completely excluded. Ha

[@Hector.Zeroni]

33:40 😂 Rone elegantly sets Francis up to speak on a very interesting comparison between him and Caroline…Sas (not listening at all) immediately butts in when Rone stops talking with a completely different question 🤦‍♂️. You can just see Rone thinking, like WTF lol

[@ryanrobinson5580]

Francis and Rone need their own show..... their comedic lines playing off each other was a really good listen since they have very similar humor style that flows.

They had their own pod. Not sure how well it did

After the comment Sass made this episode and on the case race when he was drunk it's obvious he's mad at/doesn't care for barstool much. and it's sad cause i really do like sass but he 100% won't be working here in a year. he clearly thinks he's bigger than barstool and ge doesn't realized once he leaves a lot of ppl aren't gonna give a F about him. he's not as valuable as he thinks he is. this episode for example when rone leaves to go to the bathroom Francis clearly takes charge of the podcast cause you can see sass doesn't have the ability to have a convo w another human. without rone/barstool it's a tough look for sass. i hope i'm completely wrong and everything works out for him tho
