Whatever (podcast)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Vanishingly small evidence of notability. Previously referenced to various fringe right-wing sources, tabloid gossip sites and non-RSes. After I asked on the talk page over a week ago for three solid RSes showing notability, a frequent editor tried to remove the single RS reference. On a WP:BEFORE, there doesn't appear to be anything in solid mainstream RSes that discusses this topic such as to show it meets WP:GNG or any specific notability guideline. PROD removed with no action to remedy these issues. David Gerard (talk) 16:52, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete Calling this a podcast is pretty much incorrect; it's more of a never-ending live stream and it seems these moments get picked out because...the show is six hours long and the guests are lethargic by the end and the regulars somehow call that a 'gotcha moment' to mock their invited guests. Just by its length, lack of topic clarity and and its guest pool made up of mostly unknowns, it can't easily hit WP:GNG because you have to be in that specific interest field and have the endurance to last six hours to call it notable, and very few are going to make that commitment to a show that can't even be bothered to stay on its topic of dating.

 * Draftify - as the original page creator, there was a reason why I kept it in the WP:DRAFTSPACE; there was simply too little sourcing in May and I made the bet that this will eventually pass WP:GNG. It hasn't yet. It. I see that, who was the individual who moved this article to the WP:MAINSPACE, has not been notified of this WP:AFD. — Knightof  theswords  20:17, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I was aware of it. I had plenty of sources that I assumed were RS, but it seems as though Gerard and others disagree on that account. If those sources do not count, then I wholeheartedly second the article for deletion. The podcast is past its peak and I highly doubt that the sources reporting on it will ever be the ones Wikipedia allows cited. EytanMelech (talk) 20:23, 10 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete - if there are decent sources, I can't find them. I can't even find that many garbage sources, tbh. Grayfell (talk) 07:41, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm only able to find tabloid and unreliable sources like the NY Post, Breitbart, and the Daily Wire. TipsyElephant (talk) 01:59, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
