Leo is very public with his accounts, and the reason none can be found under his name or very well-known emails is because he never created a fucking account because he wouldn’t stoop to paying for something he can get for free. He just complained on The Tech Guy about Textual 5 (his IRC program) being a $5 upgrade. For someone who spends money so freely, he is the most stingy person we know.
This information is accurate as of September 10, 2015, the latest date in the Patreon dump.
Leo Laporte lies all the time. We’ve posted examples of his many lies on a regular basis, but there’s one we couldn’t prove until recently. Every time OMGchad has been on, or Leo talks to Dickie D, he claims to looooooooooooooooove Patreon and implies that he donates to projects on the platform.
#Soup even had Jack Conte, founder of Patreon, on Triangulation and had his band, Pomplamoose, on The New Screen Savers recently to play. Each time, he hypes up Patreon. This video is a great example:
We now know this thanks to hackers who used an obvious flaw in Patreon’s platform to exfiltrate all of their data and source code. The TotalDrama editorial board has been poring over the data, looking for any sign we might be wrong, but we were not. Leo has no account.
mysql> SELECT * FROM tblUsers -> WHERE Email LIKE '%@leoville.%' -> OR Email LIKE '%@twit.tv' -> OR Email = 'laporte@gmail.com' -> OR Email = 'leolaporte@outlook.com' -> OR (LName = 'Laporte' -> AND FName LIKE 'L%'); Empty set (6.60 sec)
Leo Laporte didn’t appreciate being called a liar in the the chat room, but the gestapo mods quickly muted the brave chatter who dared point out that he lied. Thanks to that person for the inspiration for this post.
not surprised by this at all. did you notice on the clip from tnss he says basically everyone that leaves twit goes on patreon. yup ur right leo because they actually have fans willing to pay.

So…..if Leo did, in fact, contribute to Patreon and wanted to confirm this to all his fans, you’d think he’d give out the name he used for a Patreon account so others could confirm the legitimacy of his donations to disprove those calling him a liar……..anyone……anyone????
Marcus» Quote comment
He could easily share his screen with the Patreon page showing all the things he supports. We all know how open/stupid he is about showing what’s in his accounts.

Andy HACKnatko here – I’ll pontificate for several minutes before saying anything of worth or value to the topic at hand. Today was a lovely day, I took several pictures of squirrels with my Olympus camera. I also did my monthly muttonchops cleansing – I found 26 crumbs of food in the felt side and 33 in the right side. This morning, I purchased a large vessel of Wisk from am overly humid CVS store to clean my clothing, with is often soaked in sweat from the fantasies I have when reading anything with Howard The Duck…..he is so hot.
Yes – Leo is cheap

I would so make Leo donate to Patreon for THAT show. If we did it ourselves it would only be audio.
Please don’t jack off for a couple of weeks beforehand, as a cum whore myself I want the best show possible.

Did he say he donated? I’m not seeing that.
Fauxjournalist» Quote comment
He said he has an account, but his name doesn’t appear in the data available as of Sept 10th. If he doesn’t have an account, then he hasn’t donated…..unless you’re able to give money without an account, which I can’t believe would be possible.
Marcus» Quote comment
WHO, EXACTLY, would Leo donate to? He hates people who quit or got fired and hopes they rot in hell. He is not a sincere well-wisher at all. I’m guessing he was jubilant over Eric Lanigan killing himself. “Finally, justice!” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCmv0T0CWRo
It is funny to watch Leo squirm over his lie that he has an account at Patreon. Can he ever tell the truth?
Douche-eliminator» Quote comment
This is his typical MO. He “loves” everything that he should, he “buys” everything that he should, and he “praises” everything for which praise will benefit him. If he bought even half of what he claims, he would be seriously in debt. If he listened to all the audible.com books he claims he has, he would have no time for anything else.
Show hosts such as Jon Stewart talk positively about books they have not read while allowing the audience to think that perhaps they have read at least a portion. Colbert was the only one to say firmly that he did not nor did he plan to read their book. Leo, craving attention and love, claims openly that he *has* read or listened, he *has* bought, and he *has* supported others through Patreon. Naturally, nobody involved wants this production lie discussed or denied because it is seen as beneficial to the guests: “Geez, if Leo buys or supports it, it must be good!”

The Patrick Klepto» Quote comment
I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t have an account, but unless you’re sure you have every email account Leo has ever had, it’s not conclusive.
Fake Account» Quote comment
All Leo would have to do is provide the email account in question and confirm he has access to it. If it exists in the d-base then he’s off the hook. He’s not done this because he never had an account and has been caught in a another lie. Leo the liar.
Kevin Murphy» Quote comment
His failing to do so is also not conclusive.
Fake Account» Quote comment
Are there people who believe that Leo would donate money to anyone? That would encourage his followers to watch programs he doesn’t make money from. Not to mention, the donations are usually public.
On patreon you can see all of a creator’s patrons so Leo would need a fake account to have his claim that he donated to anyone be validated.
Dan_H» Quote comment
Screw Patreon. Why would I, for instance support OMGChad? Not only does he have advertisers, he’s also doesn’t seem like he needs any help what with his constant traveling, Apple Watch, etc.
Not saying those are signs of luxury, but most of these guys don’t seem like they need my $2 a week.

not to be a dick but i totally agree with you Jimmy Jam. i don’t feel bad either because I gett hardly any value EVER from Chad’s content. he even ruins the giz wiz for me and I FUCKING LOVE AND RESPECT DICKIE D. I bet Dick would be GREAT with AZ on gfq.

Andrew Zarian is another money grabbing buffoon. Constantly begging for Patreon money yet he seems to have no trouble going on holiday, buying the latest phones etc.

BigBernard» Quote comment
Probably somebody has removed his email-address and association in the Patreon database. We all know something similar happened when somebody added his genitalia into
the live video stream. 😉
btw. If he had a secret email address for donations he probably
would have spilled it by now already.

Well, well, well LL got caught lying again? Sheesh why am I not surprised! Anyway the guy is complaining about a $5 upgrade fee for his IRC program and yet on Saturdays TNSS he told Kalakanis that he will be ordering the new Tesla X because he feels bad to own an Audi due to the fact that it’s part of the VW conglomerate and he just felt bad to be associated with a company that pollutes the air, e.g. VW emissions scandal story. Can you believe this dude, oh and yeah the Tesla X has a purported base price starting at $120k. Oh and the kicker he has not told his wife that he ordered it yet, just like he didn’t tell his own mother that he got married again, hum… I see a repeating pattern here.

Last night show just proved Soup isn’t staving or hurting financially. They have to be netting at least $2m/year or more right into their pocket. Soup pretty much buying every new gadget each year. New car every couple of year and endless vacations with his ceHO. TWIT is pretty much all about Leo and no one watches other shows. Why does he even bother with full time employees.
MasterOfTwat» Quote comment
Yeah, no. All those combined don’t add up to 2 mil.
His fucking Audi is a lease, most probably to TWiT LLC. And the cunt’s Audi too. Probably most of his tech gear is billed to the business as well.
Jimmy Jam» Quote comment
You’re probably not far off on his income… Remember he was whining about making a tax remittance of 300K awhile back.
Ditching the A8 lease and leasing a Model X is genius… 2 great reasons to justify the write off…. Business expense for transportation and business expense for tech research/story reaserch….
But its the CeHo that thinks “Why does he even bother with full time employees?” , she figures she will work that fat fuck till he drops dead, RESET, and set her target on the next moderately successful entrepreneur she finds to suck dry.

I call the Leo lies” throw away lies” he continually will make statements(lies) and after so many lies, day after day it’s impossible to distinguish the truth. Example I’ve used before is Leo throwing Abby under the A8 when Leo was late for a TTG show. He claimed he had to drop off Abby at the dentist. Sure Leo… Abby has her own car, a Lexus, and why would you have to drive her to the dentist?? your ex or current cum dumpster couldn’t find the time to shuttle Abby to her Sat. 10:45 dental appointment??
John» Quote comment
I’ll keep it short like Little Leo:
As others have stated, if he had donated, he would have shown it. It would have been done ‘live on air’ as evidence of his incredible benevolence to the non-celebretties. That aaaaamazing act of kindness would not be hidden out of modesty.
The Leo retort to address this will be: ” Of course I give to people who are on Patreon BUT DIRECTLY” referencing the lucky few who get a stipend, which of course probably exclude the ex-twit crew who were ‘set free’.
Charlie» Quote comment
The ones that have been “set free” seem to come crawling back.
Shannon was doing so well with her patreon account she was re-donating money to other former twit-wits.
Leo is a liar. Leo only thinks of himself and Yoko and 3 or 4 lunches a day.

Well if he really is pocketing 2 mil. a year from 2012 to 2017 then one million for the Shithouse isn’t a bad move.
Not that I believe this fucker is making 2 million bucks a year. Even if he is, it’s a moot point since the plan has clearly always been for Cunty Kentzell to kill him with food and run with the money before he realizes he can afford more than justbSegways, computerized terlets, and disease ridden cruise trips where even a 60 year old fat man is bored to death.

On today’s MBW Leo bragged to Andy Inatkho that he put up Paul Thurrott at the Yale Hotel in New York to cover the Microsoft Event, he then turns to Andy who is also in New York covering the event where he is staying, to which Andy shamefully replies “I’m in a shared workspace”, it was clear that Andy was transmitting from a bathroom somewhere, just removed the rolls of t.p. from the shelve and put some books over the towel bar in a vail attempt to hide the fact.
