Fireworks! Big Live Show VS Having Your Own | Sal Vulcano & Joe Derosa are Taste Buds | EP 178 

The only podcasts that truly made me happy every week are gone?! Noooooooo 💔

No no nooo, you can't do this to me, you know how much I sacrificed!!... I bought an etch-a-sketch!!!😭😭

this is the worst news i have ever gotten

RIP No Presh Network

You guys got me through life when Covid happened, lost my 1st job, quit my 2nd job to pursue my passion, felt happier with ups and downs, learned to be my own boss in life, and your podcast got me through it all. Thank you ❤

This must be what it feels like when your parents get divorced.

As if a Monday couldn’t feel any worse.

If Joe, Chrissy, and Sal are reading this, and we know that you are, thanks for the good times!!🤘🤘🤘

Sal, Joe, Chris… you guys are our absolute favorite people in the world to listen to. You make us laugh so much and bring so much joy to so many people. Thank you for all you do!

Everything went downhill fast when Pimp left

Depression, sadness, agony. Its really the end guys😔

I STILL LOVE YOU BABE!!! For real, Joe vs. Sal dynamic is something we all desperately need. Please don’t let it die

Damn,my weekly podcast schedule is taking a huge hit 😢 Luv ya,Babes ❤😘

Damn this sucks. Absolutely loved this channel

Well this sucks, most podcasts don't return after a hiatus. Hopefully, this will be the refresh they need to make a solid comeback eventually if they all settle down in the same place, but if not... it's been fun to watch each Monday and you gave me some great laughs! Going to miss this, buds!

Random, but since I discovered your podcasts, I only allowed myself to listen if I walk on the treadmill. I’ve lost 30 lbs since discovering the pods about 4 months ago! I’m definitely going to miss these. Thanks for the laughs, babes.

Podcasts are like rappers when they get too big

Damn, the only postcast/show I watch weekly, absolutely love tastebuds, will be awaiting the return!

I'm going to miss y'all's dumb assery so much. Please take care of yourselves. This stranger on the Internet is gonna miss the hell out of the you guys. But I'll take it up with Bloom Cafe 💔

Babes and buds, your pods helped me get through college and battles with anxiety and I constantly rewatch or re-listen to old eps when I am driving or just doing anything. Love you guys and I hope that this isn't the end.

Man, heartbroken. Best of luck to all babes and buddies.

This is a sad day. Your podcasts were something I looked forward to each week during a time there isn't a lot to look forward to. Though I will certainly be missing your presence in my life each week, I wish you all the best and thank you for everything you've given us.

My balls are BLOWN OFF. I did see this coming though. I love you guys and thank you for getting me through my crazy work weeks for years. Shout out work, shout out years. Best of luck to all of you and many blessings to you and your families. Stay safe and hope to see you popping up again soon some day! Much LOVE! ❤

You should make it a monthly pod instead of weekly

I was not prepared for this at all. I look forward to Monday’s and Thursday mornings 😭💔 hope you guys are back sooner than later. 🥺 love ya babes

BRING BACK HISTORY HYEANAS

I haven’t even watched this episode I came here strait from Facebook when I heard ! I’m sad but also pissed I have literally watched this show from day one episode one ! I can’t believe it , honestly this show has brought me so much happiness I don’t know what I’m going to do without yall fighting anymore ! The laughs , geez I’m crying 😭

It was a good run. No Refunds.

babes, my heart is broken. Love u guys. thanks for the laughs.

Aw dam for real??? I literally have my workdays planned out revolving around these pods lol they definitely help me get through the day

broke up with my boyfriend, had to suddenly spend thousands of dollars on a new car after mine died, my job flooded, and now the no presh network is gone. i’ll be taking this up with bloom cafe!

I love Sal. I would give up both of these podcasts for history hyenas any day.

We all know this is because of Biscuits and Gravy Part 1……

Hope it’s not a permenant hiatus, I’d even love just a 30 min weekly zoom call with the three of you catching up lol

Felt like this was coming for a while, was fun while it lasted.

Saddddest news 🥺 heartbroken but thank you guys for everything ❤️ youve helped me heal more than you know!!

Can’t say I am a fan of hey babe but I love taste buds every Monday. Best of luck to all of you.

If I go tell migration that Joe is Egyptian will y’all come back sooner 😭

BRING BACK HISTORY HEAYNAAASS

I respect this, the half baked 40 min episodes with 20 minutes of ads and plugs, it was clear they didnt have time nor the interest as much as their other projects. Maybe we'll come back one day but I'm glad I found this pod.

This is a sad day I have loved watching the shows love you guys and I'll keep watching whatever you give us

Sal is now a father?!?!?!?! CONGRATS UR GONNA BE GREAT BABE

I’m literally about to burst into tears. This has completely wrecked my day.

No presh...more like all depresh. Lol 😋skanks for the memories fellas.

What about the punishments? Can we get Joe to dress up as Woody from Toy Story?

That was worse than when my parents sat me down and told me Santa isn't real :(

Genuine absolute heartbreak. Thank yall for everything

I’m okay with some crappy episodes as long as it’s every week!

Wow. This is actually the saddest thing I've heard in a minute. I look forward to this show so much. It's a highlight of my week. I love you, babes.

Devastated. Thank you for the escapism, the laughs, the company. Love you all.

🥺Thanks guys! Buds and Babes FOREVER!🖤💛🤟✌️

Let’s honor the tradition babes and buds. Every Monday and Thursday, no earlier than 10:00 AM. I will see you there, may our shuffled/restarted playlists cross paths, and may our unity be written in the stars.

This is honestly very sad news. I remember way back in the days of kung flu I was having lunch one day, and I happened upon a clip from the snickers versus whatever it was against episode. I was hooked instantly and have stayed and remained a true faithful loyal fan ever since. Over the past few months, I had a feeling this may have been coming, unfortunately. To see it now come to fruition is very sad. I have no expectations of the shows coming back, I hope one day they do because they brought so much joy happiness laughter. They got me through some very tough times. I wish y'all boys the best and here's to hopefully one day y'all getting back together with the pimp.

Thank you guys for this! Every Monday at work as a landscaper walking around dredging my day for the first hour i wouldn’t mind because i had you guys ❤️ I’ll miss this and I’ll be here when it returns

I can’t imagine the stars align to bring this pod back. Joe is in Austin, Chris with 2 young kids and a budding comedy career in queens, Sal with a new born as well as jokers. Plus the new projects they mentioned. This is a year long hiatus at the minimum and hopefully we may get an occasional live or recorded tastebuds when the guys are in the same area. This should also give them some time to get a backlog of battles to think about if they ever do come back. Thanks for the laughs!

So terribly bummed, babes. But I get it! Thanks for all the free content full of joy and gigs. ❤

Damn my Mondays will be filled with a void

Chris Just sitting there like... I don't have anything going on but douching my ass on youtube now

I think the 3 of them doing some occasional special pod altogether would be really good

I know the thing is sal vs joe is taste buds but joe vs chris energy has always been just as hilarious lol

Chris isn’t coming back. You can see it all over his face

I'm sure you guys got better things to be doing but I will miss you being part of my week. Thanks for all the laughs and wish you all the best.

😢 THIS HAS BEEN NO PRESH 😢

I'm devastated that these podcasts are ending. Thank you for giving me something funny to look forward to almost each week for three-ish straight years.

After watching the first 15 minutes I do understand that obviously there is a lot of schedule conflict and I know you guys are super busy in your regular lives and even giving us the shows you have has took a lot of perseverance and time and I do appreciate everything you guys have done I just want to say that I hope Joe opens up his sandwich shop in Austin because I live in Arkansas and I will make the trip for sure. I am just sad to see you guys leave because I feel like as much as you have grown From what no pressure has become is tremendous and I hope in the near future that something else will come of you guys because the three of you guys together is and has been a lot of peoples go to for comfort through personal problems, stress depression, believe me, I’ve heard so many people on Facebook Talking about how the show has helped them through so much including myself. I don’t know what I’m gonna do now without you guys on Mondays. I always look forward to it but I cannot say that I am not sad. There is an emotional pit in my stomach right now that I wanna cry which is kind of ridiculous to cry over a podcast but honestly the podcast was likehaving friends over or escaping reality for the hour or so it was on. I will miss you guys dearly and I truly wish you guys the best no matter what happens. I love you.❤

If somehow this hiatus brings back History Hyenas, I'm all for it

This show got me through horrible depression a couple years ago. So sad that it’s done for now. Thank you babes we love you and cant wait for the return.

I'm going to have to schedule an impromptu appointment with my therapist before I do something crazy... that announcement broke my heart...

Wei Zhong Xian! Bring back The Hyenas!

Chris D about to be unemployed everywhere

Ah man. What a blow but wish you guys the best. Thanks for the countless hours of pods each week. Good things are coming!

Really gonna miss watching you guys during my lunch breaks. Thanks for the laughs!

My heart just shattered into a million pieces. To not have you in my life every week is truly heartbreaking 💔 I feel like I’ve lost my friends. I’ve been with youse for so many years. You’re truly therapy for me. I pray for even a once a month episode. Happy for all of your successes for sure. Hoping that we can catch you together again soon. Meanwhile, I’m taking this up with the Bloom Cafe. 💔💔💔

Sal, I took my son to his first comedy show last year. It had gotten postponed because the basement flooded in the venue. So it became basically a Christmas show. Thank you for making our Xmas season all the more special, for giving us such a great memory for a lifetime, for giving us so many conversations since that have grown from that night now including so many more comics as well, thank you for all the shared laughs for this father and son, and thank you for bringing that pig DeRosa with you that night. (I was the one with a hard-on, screaming “Salsa Windfall!” while my son was on a bathroom break.) Sal, you chose 2 wonderful porcine gents to work with at No Presh, 2 of my very favorite in the world, and the closing of this chapter is truly sad for me and so many others, but we all know the Dr. Seuss quote, so I’m gonna choose to smile because it happened. Much love you three. See you on stage soon.

This is a life changing moment for me and it’s making me sick to my stomach. My days are going to be different forever.

Can’t believe it’s over. Thank you for everything! Made Mondays great for a long time. Gonna miss you guys for sure

Why can't anybody in this world be fucking honest? You didn't make enough money from the pods and callled it quits. Is it that hard to admit? I mean for fucks sake. Anyway I'll miss you guys. Hopefully Bobby and Virzi will keep going for a while.

I know Chris said he’s restarting History Hyenas as a joke but I meaaaaaaannnnn 👀👀

Honestly I’m kinda happy about this. I’m glad they’ve recognized that they should take time off to focus on personal lives and to make the show the way they want to make. Much loves BUDDIES AND BABES!

Chris literally could not care less on the announcement

Sal is a dad? Almost worth the show ending. Sal I'm so fuxking happy for you

Nooooooo. All I have left is BAD FRIENDS now...

I blame Chris. His life has been a mess before and after buying the house and its only gotten worse since he sold it and moved into a shoebox. Pimpy saw the writing on the wall and took the Nate check and dipped. RIP Nopreshnetwork.

Terrible news. But no matter what happens I love you.

Wait...What...Oh OK...Sal is a FATHER!! Congrats Sal!! I hope mother and baby Vulcano are doing well!

You've kept us entertained for quite awhile. There was never a dull moment. We all thank you and appreciate the laughs and the memories. We'll miss you and we'll never stop loving and supporting you guys. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Love you guys so much. These shows were a real boost in my week. I’ll miss this so much!!!!

Well now I’m sad… I guess tell Sal to bring back What Say You with Q

I was waiting for one of you guys to break and start laughing at the bit but it wasn’t a bit at all, you guys are really going on hiatus 😢😭 really appreciate all work you’ve put into this pod, it was one I always looked forward to. It really helped me get through a lot, thank you ❤

So funny how this falls off and Chris is like yeah I would do history hyenas now. Yikes the higher they fly

RIP my fav podcast for years now. Ugh i didnt need this today! Still love ya, babe.

This is actually going to throw me off so bad, I’ve listened to every episode from both podcast, Oreos v chips ahoy and you appear normal, and eagerly waited for each episode every week. The vibe has always been so great and I’ve always looked forward to this weekly happy place. I’m sad it ended like this but it looks like each of these guys have great things ahead of them

Me realizing they hired stevie just to stretch out the podcast and added some mid episodes to bring us to Sal's special (come on man, Limited edition oreo taste test?? Did you just have those three in the cupboard??) I'm only ribbing btw, will always love these beetches.

This was my work listen and favorite podcast…. My taste buds will be forever different

Nooo! Where am I gonna be able to watch derosa every week 😭😭

This week blows - first a coworker of 12+ years is leaving me and now the only Pod I look forward to each week is leaving. For real, I get it but you guys brought so much laughter, joy, and stupid arguments over garlic bread or biscuits and gravy. Will miss you guys each week!!

You all helped get me through one of the toughest times of my life during grad school. I re-listen to both pods often! It’s hella nostalgic for me! If this is the end, thank you babes 🥺

Please come back as soon as you can❤ i listen to hey babe and taste buds constantly at work. It makes my day so much better. Ill miss you babes, I'm glad you guys are doing well, but i really dont want this to end up completely gone.

You guys can’t cut us off cold turkey! We need taste buds every week.

Once a month super show called Hey Buds.. Thanks for all the content over the years guys, I really looked forward to every episode. This has been Hey Babe.
