Yeah, I never downloaded Honey cause it sounded too good. I thought the ones being fleeced were the consumers, little did I know that Honey would screw over their affiliate partners too. Crazy thing is, if they charged a small monthly fee for the service, I wonder if the investigation that led to this revelation would have even happened.
Based!! And the amount of scam emails really is astounding. I got some polish email saying they were from San Pellegrino and another time Southwest Airlines. Who is falling for that???
It could have affected you since you have a commission link in your bio, and the Honey scam basically steals commissions because just before clicking buy on the website Honey pops up and gives you a promo code, or doesn't, but when you click on even the x from the extension it registers that Honey was the last click and then honey gets the commission money.
Just realized your first video is only a year younger than me 😭. Drew has taught me more and raised me more morally speaking than my actual family and I cant tell if that's really depressing on my part or impressive on his that he's litterally kept me watching his channel since I was in early grade school.
I never got why people were SO up in arms about it, it was just a goofy novelty gift, of course nothing actually recognizes the title. When you compare it to actual scams and harmful companies like Better Help, it’s not that big of a deal.
Actually there is a huge scam industry with actually honey as well. Didn't know about it until we were trying to join a clinical trial for the use of Manuka Honey for easing sore throat caused by radiation. Turns out it is very hard to guarantee that the honey patients are receiving is real.
Yeap, I have noticed that Drew doesn't do sponsorships and wondered how he could pull this off. I guess, he's just a country ball plushies tycoon and doesn't need side gigs
I have to point out that one of the reasons I like watching Drew even after all this time (other than for the obvious reasons), it's because he feels authentic. Nice and funny, but he doesn't pretend something he's not. UA-cam is missing this authenticity (that Jenna Marbles had, for example) so much. Him talking about sponsorships just proves it (and I wouldn't mind if he did more, I know this is a job for him and UA-cam demonetizes videos very easily).
Drew I need you to talk about "olfactory ethics the politics of smell in modern and contemporary prose". My twitter feed has been going crazy over this for the past month and a half (almost as crazy as everyone has been going for our adorable and completely innocent Luigi), and it's surprisingly such a fascinating subject (that I had no idea about 6 weeks ago lol).
Economics 101: There is no such thing as a free lunch. If something is free or discounted in some way, then SOMEONE is paying for it in a different way.
Drew you're a very personable person, and have helped me through a lot of tough times, never change, this video is a testament to that, dont fall into the influencer mindset 🙏🙏
What confuses me about your revenue is the lack of non-plush merch. I'm guessing it's because of your gut feeling of there being issues with any supplier, but meme-ish country or region-based items would sell well, especially around major sporting events.
This is why Drew and The Mighty Jingles are my favorite. They are extremely picky about sponserships, when and if they decide to take them. Thank you Drew, you rock!
Thats bananas: "The FTC says the company repeatedly pushed people to take an Intake Questionnaire and hand over sensitive health information through unavoidable prompts. And it promised to keep that information private through statements like: “Rest assured - any information provided in this questionnaire will stay private between you and your counselor.” But from the FTC’s perspective, a truthful statement would have been “Rest assured - we plan to share your information with major advertising platforms, including Facebook, Snapchat, Criteo, and Pinterest.” A proposed FTC settlement with BetterHelp includes $7.8 million for partial refunds for BetterHelp customers and conveys an unmistakable message about just how seriously the FTC takes this kind of betrayal of trust."

Hi
@@34-ALieN Hello
The classic "too good to be true" situation - they never let up lol
Yeah, I never downloaded Honey cause it sounded too good. I thought the ones being fleeced were the consumers, little did I know that Honey would screw over their affiliate partners too.

SwinceBall!
imagine southwest sponsoring a youtube video 😭
XD
wow swinceball! love your videos
Oh hi i dit not now you now drew
Oversimplified sadly gave a bunch of advertisements to honey, like six times.
So did MrBeast
So did countless other UA-camrs.
@@JediSimpsonprobably not that many
same with NordVPN which is also pretty shady in its marketing
@@solartree4189 Yes that many, it was all over the internet, coming from every part of UA-cam
It’s too bad the UA-camr economy has to rely so heavily on the sketchiest companies
Fr
Cant we get some good legit sponsorships like NormVPN

No, that's just sad.
That is just you forming a parasocial relationship
That’s not good based on the fact you publicly shared it. Oh and it’s probably not the greatest initially either.
Sad that your family didn't raise you, other than that it's fine
2:00 Established Titles
If was more like novelty than a scam but yeah.
I never got why people were SO up in arms about it, it was just a goofy novelty gift, of course nothing actually recognizes the title. When you compare it to actual scams and harmful companies like Better Help, it’s not that big of a deal.
@@Wolfmeister666 I think it was one of the rare cases where the product wasn't the scam, the advertisements were.
Wait, Drew plays World of Warships on his free time? There's a shot I've actually met him in game!? Lord have mercy.
I think this video is just drew explaining that he has trust issues 😂
This was a crazy thing to pop up
Please please don't change.
Fr
I like when drew does these IRL videos because you see his thoughts and opinions and own self because you see him for him more not just a UA-camr
Wait, honey is a scam? Someone tell Winnie the Pooh, stat!
lmao
I will call xi!

Youre a good guy Drew and I hope the rest of this decade goes well for you.
Legend says drew hasnt enteracted with his fanbase sense 2018
That’s precisely why we like you guys and your channels, don’t change, you do you.

Simple: if it's too good to be true then it's too good to be true.
The other one I always thought was a bit of scam was the established titles where you could buy a plot of land and be considered a lord in Scotland
Your One of the Best UA-camrs my opinion
i like how drew is now the paintbrush mapper version of charlie
This man is a living legend keep it up 🎉
Another reason why I subscribed to Drew. Homeboi knows what's up.
Huge Drew W not falling for the honey scam
I didn't expect Drew to make a video about this
This is why drew is the goat
I like this channel even more than the main channel
My dad always says the same thing: the sniff test
If it doesn't feel right, it most probably isn't
Pie is the same way it’s a scam
well, if somethings too good to be true, it often is a scam. I told people about it years ago.
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
you should play outer wilds, or disco elyium. I'd love some more games
