The Bad Apple(s)

First, thanks to everyone who has messaged us about this. Yes, we are aware there are subscribers who are illegally posting our Patreon content on TikTok. Yes, we have taken action. It’s a process. Look, it really frustrates us because we pour so much time and effort into making our Patreon special. But it’s extra frustrating because the subscribers have paid money for it, only to have a couple bad actors take it upon themselves to gain clout off the backs of someone else’s hard work. But know that we will handle it as it happens. It just takes time. We may have to go beyond banning their accounts at some point because they are literally stealing valuable content and costing us money. This isn’t a game. They aren’t playing Robinhood and providing a service to those who haven’t joined. They are stealing. We’re discussing with a lawyer to explore all our options.

Meanwhile, we appreciate your continued support! This Patreon community is amazing, and we won’t let a few bad apples ruin it. Always best to focus on the good!

Comments

I came across some of the reposts and decided to subscribe for myself as well as report those accounts because I adore bistro huddy, im sorry about all of this king

Jesse Hernandez

@lmjfc88 on tiktok. the account has over 16 thousand followers

Char Baker

@los.angeles.aj on tiktok just started posting more patreon exclusives, they also seem to be reposting some content from other skit creators. disgusting :(

Char Baker

@cxdseu is posting btw

Emma Leszczynski

a new one just popped up, @soggydogyeah360, ill reply to this message with any others i see. its really annoying that we cant report the accounts ourselves, feel like thats a huge oversight on tiktok's part

Char Baker

@lsjhfh is posting ur patreon content, i already tagged u in the video, i hope those people realize what they’re doing..

soph

I saw some of your patreon videos and i felt so bad that i made this patreon account and suscribed, do you forgove me?

Dante Leonardo Ruiz Macias

I don’t have any social media besides this, YouTube and discord. Don’t know what I could do to help but I’m sure that will be taken care of soon.

cindy powers

it’s so disrespectful it’s sad.

lissaa_jaaay

I need happiness in my life now and paid for the whole year! No fair that some folks try to ruin a good thing.

Ingrid D Doerksen

Absolutely terrible!

D'Ahna J Mitchell

Lol you read too far in to that 🥴 I was being facetious

Haley Alexis Willer

I mean this in the kindest way possible but if you’re using your literal last $5 on a Patreon you need to sort out your priorities

Alisha Suarez

Me too!

Merri533

GO GET ‘EM!!! Thieves🤬

Merri533

You think you’ve seen low, and then there’s a new lower low.

Devorah Leah Lederman

sorry I thought it said “no way, I am sharing this”

lucas morales

Is it helpful for us to tag Drew when we see content that looks stolen?

Lynda Wilkinson

You can always message me their username here! Even if we're blocked if we have the username we're able to access their account/posts.

Drew Talbert

They're banned now!

Drew Talbert

Yep. Another one!!!!

Kelly Sturek

I’m more than happy to pay for the extra Bistro Huddy content. I genuinely look forward to the new videos. It’s like an extra treat during my week and I love supporting such a hard working creative team.

Hailey

Thats so crazy. I literally used my last five dollars so I could watch extra content and people out here trying to leak paid for content. 😑 that's nauseating. I'm so sorry. At least your true fans pay and report the fakes!

Haley Alexis Willer

Same I screenshotted it

Melody Thompson

I just found another

Melody Thompson

I will only watch content that is directly from you, any alt account I report it

Chris Plymesser

Found this to was also about to report😭

Sarah burgess

Hey drew, I found another account @birstrohduddyextr

Paolo Capri

birstrohduddyetxr is posting!!

meowte

@birstrohduddyetxr is another account (on tiktok tagged u but they probably deleted it) :(((

carmen

Seems like they’re blocking your accounts, I wasn’t able to tag you. What’s the best action we can take when we discover one of them?

Katherine Elizabeth

Alright! Cant believe terry himself has replied. Roll tide

f4ll pengu1n

Thank you! We have taken action!

Drew Talbert

Same here, its so annoying esp when they post it longer then a minute and it goes viral.

f4ll pengu1n

I saw that account too! Already reported them

Jassica28

Hey! If this even helps, theres another person posting them. I tagged you but im sure you get thousands of tags, so here’s their user. @birstrohduddyetxr

f4ll pengu1n

that’s what they’re saying, they’re saying they DONT share it

Matilda

Oh we ain't goin' nowhere!

Drew Talbert

I just bought the patreon don’t take it away 😭

Skylar Garcia

Every time I see one, I tag you or Andrea in it because the report button is basically useless

Amelia Prososki

Do they think they’re getting clout? I mean, this is the only reason I have Patreon and I’ve never even worked in a restaurant. 🤪

Jeannette C Temple

This account is the only reason I have Patreon. I don't have Tik Tok but I wouldn't watch your videos on anything unless it was from your page. So sick of people stealing content and getting followers off of it.

AReady

I bet poppy is leaking the videos because she is jealous

Ryan R Nelson

This is VIP section for a reason. Don’t ruin the VIP table for the rest of us.

Ryan R Nelson

When I try to report the account, I get a Network Error.

Pea Bee

It’s crazy, man. You are the only account I subscribe to on Patreon (had to create an account specifically), because I wanted to support the effort you guys put into making these videos. I’m sorry you’re having to deal with this

Kesi Williams

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Allison

no way im sharing paid content this is our luxury 💅🏽

Jacque Beckford

Well, I’m not on TikTok. This is nasty work. People are so cavalier with other people’s hard work. I love your content and signed up for Patreon to support and see more of BH. Keep up the great work.

Alejandra Vera-Charles

I try to report every counterfeit video I find, but oftentimes no action is taken.

Shelley Rauch

I found one and it wouldn’t let me report it - here’s the username - @fooncsd on tiktok

Carson Garlington

I report the account every time it pops up on my fyp

Julia

Literally 5 quid a month the fact people won’t pay that is mind boggling

Josef James macey

Let us know what we can do to help you! Roll tide.

Rebecca Sanfilippo

I saw one of those and it actually made me pull the trigger on subscribing because I felt like it was unfair to you guys that they were doing that. Glad to be here and they suck.

Molly Eslinger

Can we help in any other way? Maybe tagging your TikTok account in the videos?

Paolo Capri

Does reporting the videos help in any way?

Zack

Nicole, get over there and get them!

Ali Banta

Get um terry

Audree

Yeah i dont get why people do this like just keep the videos to your self

Collin Edwards

I report them whenever I see them dw :)

Jodie Oakman

Why not support your favorite creators and get bonus content in exchange? I joined a couple months ago and it's well worth $5. It's so unfair those accounts are posting Patreon only videos 🙄

Elizabeth Sample

❤️❤️

Erin Palmer

Go get 'em!

Stephannie Baxter

and they get so much likes too 😞

vio macmod

Roll Tide!

Lorran White

what's the best way to report said videos/accounts when we see them on TikTok

Jared

@fooncsd is an account posting

Max

I get so angry when I see it!! Like what the f*ck?!

Megan Willis

So sorry this is happening, I’m sure it’s really frustrating. I know most of us really appreciate this patreon and your extra videos for us! We’ll keep reporting!

elena schoen northen

They suck. To all the ppl that are doing that ur not invited to family meal. Pretend ur Poppy and this is Nicole’s birthday party. Realize ur not invited

Kendra Seymore

I avoid TikTok, but I DO report all your stolen videos on FB. And I hope you nail all the thieves to the wall.

Johanna Trahan

the people who are doing this are just just assholes

brooke

Fuck those people with a syphilitic cactus.

Alice Wonderchek

...that is not right...you folks work hard and are so talented....sorry to hear @ this....❤️ Bistro Huddy

Stacey

Whenever I see it I get upset not even because I’m paying for it and there not it breaks my heart that there stealing money out of my favorite creators pocket 🙄

Tniia _

And they're so sassy in the comments when you point out that they're stealing too. Like this is just extra content. Everything lore-related and dependent will be on the main page.

popthebutterfly

I'm sorry this is happening to you guys. I love your content and I hope this doesn't detur you from creating.

Amber Zamniak

I started seeing these being posted, glad steps are being taken to stop it.

Brittney

🚩🚩🚩 I say this is one of the thieves. To be that vocal about supporting stolen content is very telling.

Annie

I will always report ones that I find - you guys deserve to be paid for your hard work! If there’s anything else we as Patrons can do to help, let us know!! 🫶🏻

Annie

every account that appears I will report them!

Morena Sotelo

Boo! Get those bastards!!!

Amy

Also, the Sam Erix rainbow hair creator gets stolen from ALL THE TIME. Facebook does nothing.

Claire Nollet

There's also a lady from England who has done videos on her cat, Lincoln, falling in love with the neighbor cat, Lily. These videos are NOT posted on Facebook, only on YouTube and other platforms. But there's some asshat in Facebook who posts under lincolninlove. I report him every damned time, but he's still stealing.

Claire Nollet

same

Madysen Mors

Omg Drew and Andrea. Let me know who it is...Nicole and I will team up and take them out. Can you imagine the two of us teaming up? It will be epic.

Penny Snowdon

I report them and post in the comments it’s all stolen and hopefully people will not engage but it’s crappy I hate people do this

Lexie

Yeah I saw that person too, I was so confused by their logic

Matthew Bailey

Maybe you should your boss should lower or even fully cut your pay. You clearly don’t think Drew deserves to be paid for his hard work so why should you be paid for yours?

Matthew Bailey

It sucks that there are people doing this. I really love your content. I’ve been a long time watcher of your YT shorts, and this year one of my goals was to give back to more creators that genuinely bring me joy. I hope that the people who also love your content this much don’t go out of their way to find the illegal exclusive content - people need to understand that it only damages the creators in the long run.

Olivia

Sorry to hear that that happened! People suck sometimes. This happened recently to another Patreon creator in my "Creator Club" too.

Hilarie Burhans

As an artists ourselves, my partner and I deeply respect the work you do! We budgeted to be able to be part of this community and it breaks my heart people are stealing! We are so so sorry this is happening to you! I wish there was something we could do to help! We really enjoy your content and you’re the only content creator we subscribe to! Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help!! 🩷🩷

Kiana

i was so relieved (and surprised!) when you responded to my dm abt it... one of the fake tiktok accounts literally had "if drew responds to my dm then i'll delete the account" or smth like that on their story today, which is just... what?! i'm so sorry these ppl keep causing issues for you, it must be a nightmare and it feels so insulting to everyone who pays (and also everyone behind bistro huddy, who spend so much time and energy on the content you produce) :((

Ali :)

I was considering making a video about this because it pisses me off so much. I know that not everyone can afford that $5, but its literally theft of content. I'm so angry about this.

Laura Durst

I've only seen a Nursery Nurse fan page on YT where they are posting her content. It's ridiculous.

Laura Durst

(I always kind of assume you've been approached by Hollywood producers)

Lisa Vaas

We need to get Bistro Huddy with a deep-pocketed studio and lots of lawyers who can deal with this nonsense so you two can just concentrate on your work. Any possibilities there?

Lisa Vaas

Alana Fineman, the "Time for another RESTAURANT STORY!" creator has a ton of people stealing and posting her content on Facebook. I report them each time, and NOTHING happens. I love her stuff, too, and it's such nonsense people are stealing her hard work just to get likes. The Chef Scubes guy has the same problem, as does Brittany Nicole of the "toxic mother-in-law" series, and the "Miss Louder burned out teachers" creator. It makes me SO MAD. (BTW, I'd love to see you, Alana, and Chef Scubes do a collaboration.)

Claire Nollet

Those rat bastards!!!

Lisa Vaas

Bummer 😞

Rebelske

You guys give us so much free content -- and on such a frequent basis. But you deserve to make money for all your hard work! There are a lot of creators whose videos I enjoy and I can't afford to pay a Patreon subscription for all of them. I pick the ones I like best, and support them. Do I wish I could afford to subscribe to every content creator or streaming service I enjoy? Sure. Just like I'd love to be able to afford better clothes, bespoke shoes for my huge feet, fancy furniture and gourmet meals every night. But I have a budget, and I treat myself to what I can afford. The furniture store doesn't owe me a free $5000 couch just because I want it. You're amazing artists, who give us a great deal of enjoyment. I'm addicted to the multiple storylines, and invested in the lives of the characters. You give out a TON of free content, and you deserve to make money. If that means you charge a VERY NOMINAL fee for access to the bonus stuff, that's fair. No one has the right to steal from you.

Claire Nollet

We’re doing that. It takes time. Thank you!

Drew Talbert

Only if we could downvote comments. You don't understand that what these accounts are doing.

Robbie

I’ve asked. They aren’t super helpful.

Drew Talbert

Already reported a few accounts but I doubt that will do anything. I hope you guys will do okay in this 🫶

Robbie

Wild thing to comment here

Drew Talbert

I always fought with them, they blocked me, send it to Andrea and she rains hell on them It pisses me off so much cause yall work so fucking hard and for your work to be basically dehumanized and thrown through content stealing assholes who know what their doing does NOT support you two at all

Brook Loewen

The problem is, they don’t care

Drew Talbert

This is why we can’t have nice things smh people gotta be trying to take advantage… like it’s 5 dollars a month FIVE . Save a dollar 25 a week and there you go you can pay for it 🧐

Nao

If the content is reported as a copyright violation, it should fall under the DMCA. But I don't know how that works with non U.S. owned companies.

Sarah Spark

I would absolutely pay more as well. Totally worth it to support creators directly.

Harley Hot Wheelz

Sadly, the best most effective way is to report as copyright violation but that has to be submitted by the copyright owner.

Sarah Spark

so sorry this is happening to yall! much love <3

Abby

You can still see the free content. Taking paid content and posting it elsewhere is theft and not cool. Account bans should happen!

Harley Hot Wheelz

Is it a possibility to add a watermark/text that says: Stolen if not on Patreon ? I would not mind seeing it here and it calls them out. Now I don't think they will feel too embarrassed to do it, and those are throw-away accounts, but still. It might at least mean your content is less attractive to steal.

Rebelske

I will keep trying to report them as I can. Thanks for all you do!

Harley Hot Wheelz

Wow seriously? How do you think Drew and Andrea support their family? If you really did love their content, you wouldn't be ok with stealing from them.

Sarah Spark

Man, they suck. 😞

Angel Eicher

Really? Then don’t pay nobody is forcing you to?

Moodyyy

That’s not the point. They’re creating a product and should be compensated for it. If you can’t afford the patreon price then perhaps ask for it as a gift on your next birthday?

Holly Turner

Another Nancy Drew and Bistro Huddy fan 🫶

Emily Brock

all we can do as supports is report the accounts as they pop up! we love yall!

Marcos

Awww come on dont ban then plz. Maybe I can actually save money if I don’t have to pay a Patreon subscription

Johan_The_Guy

I’m so sorry this is happening! I recently got Patreon and I remember seconds after adding y’all I got Patreon content on my fyp

helzbelz

Yes they post all the episodes on there and say “they’re just borrowing them”

Emily Brock

I usually just report them I think that’s the most we can do

Johanna Arna Gunnarsdottir

So sad how people can’t have nice things

Johanna Arna Gunnarsdottir

bistrohuddyexlusive (yes spelled that way) too

Trinity

SO TRUE

Sammy

I think it’s quite strange Patreon hasn’t caught up yet given how it’s designed to help artists make a living.

Nazimovna

i’m sorry this keeps happening, i always report any accounts i see but tiktok seems to be really slow at resolving these issues

Katie Keeling

It really sucks to know how many people all over the internet just steal content and repost thinking nothing of it. It's such a scummy thing and for what? Annonomys internet clout? Boooo 👎

Kaii_Guyy

🤬🤬🤬🤬

Adam T. Berns

me too!

Madysen Mors

Karma will happen, don't stress

Ken Forman

i’m so sorry this is happening! if you have to charge more i totally understand!

Lexi

I report every page that’s not Drew or Andrea!!!

Aholiva

I've always appreciated the security WebToons uses for us content. I read webcomics on a few different apps and there is little worse than coming across a spoiler on Instagram or TikTok.

DeLaney Dickinson

I'm really sorry about this. I really enjoy your content and I just wanted to support you as you're a big source of enjoyable content for me. Here's hoping the process is not as bad as I think it is

Katie Schaefers

I'm so sorry this is happening to you & Andrea. Unfortunately there are always bad apples who turn up to take advantage of good people. I think many of us have experienced some of this in varying degrees. If there is anything your loyal subscribers can do to help, don't hesitate to ask. We appreciate all the hard work that goes into you sharing your gift with us... 🤗

Genie

I always report the accounts I find and send it to the discord server so more people can do the same,I don't get how people can be so selfish and post stuff like this for views,I hope it gets better soon

Jade

Please, take more of my money. What you have done with this series is incredible, and I'd gladly pay more.

Gungedawg

i'm so sorry this is happening drew! people truly don't understand or care that this is you and andrea's livelihood and it's detrimental to your income that supports your family and business. patreon needs to start blocking screen recording, which they already should have done that by now like netflix and other platforms do.

Bridgette Butala

Or why someone would pay for the content and then give it out for free

Emily Brock

I hate seeing them repost the content since we have to pay for ut

Robin

And I even had someone argue with me on why I shouldn’t tell them about the piracy

Emily Brock

I’m so sorry that happened. And continues to happen. I only worked in a restaurant for a minute back in my early 20s. Your content is such a balm to my soul. Pointing out all the things. And such great characters. You and Andrea do a marvelous job.

Michelle Lasley

they also posted on their story “ respond to my DM and i’ll stop posting”…. like what!? a random “ note” story ?? insanity

Madysen Mors

That is so awful and frustrating like wtf y’all! How hard is it to follow the rules 😡🤬

Aholiva

putting the @ here would probably help them find the exact account!

savannah west

I can’t imagine how frustrating this must feel for you guys, we love Bistro Huddy and we appreciate all the time and effort that you both put into making us laugh! I hope it all works out at the end.

Emily Brock

i’m so sorry! i hope it gets sorted asap

Kay

You guys are the best and other people suck sometimes! Glad I found you and Patreon so I can keep up with all the fun at Bistro Huddy!❤️

AmyFran77

As an author who has had my books pirated, this infuriates me. I'm also an IP lawyer so it's just as upsetting to my lawyer side. Go at them full force. Show no mercy because they have no right to do what they are doing.

Lauren Smith

No matter how many times I've reported them, it's *no violations found* 😒

Kelly

I report them everytime it comes up! So sorry this is happening. It’s unfair to you guys. the one i see the most is @Bistro.Huddy.Extra everyone should go report them!

Madysen Mors

crazy they got over 30k followers, hoping tiktok takes their account down🙏

Lika Junie

I didn't think Aaron knew how to use a computer! (For real though, this stinks and I'm so sorry it happens! Boo on the bad apple(s)!!)

Kristin D

@bistro.huddy.extra on tiktok !!! i thought it was you but it’s account stealing content

Angel

i hate yall have to deal with this. thank you for making such great bonus content for us & we appreciate both of your hard work on everything!!!

savannah west

i always see their accounts on my fyp

Tianna Wright

I wish you all the best Drew and Andrea! Is there anyway Patreon can block recording and monitor screenshots? I use WEBTOON and it blacks out the screen if you screenrecord and also displays a warning message every time you screenshot. Might be worth discussing this with Patreon (though I’m not sure how you would take it up to them).

Nazimovna

I’ve never understood why patreon allows screen recording

Sammy

Hopefully you get it sorted straight away!

Lewis Malik

it’s crazy because they literally don’t care that they’re stealing… hopefully legal action will wake them up

Selena

It’s awful that this is happening to you guys, this literally affects your income!! Your life! They are literally stealing from your pockets and it’s not right. Patreon should make it so you can’t screen record, I know there are apps that do that!

Monica Ayotte

love you!!! good luck and i hope you get rid of them

alex

I can't stand thieves. I hope they get what's coming to them.

Brian Curtis

Yes!! I think lawsuits need to be filed against those people

OBC

I'm sorry this is happening but I appreciate you guys and your hard work that has brought so many people so much joy!

Lauren McGuire

Sorry people suck

Kelly

pickles definitely needed some money for some skittles

kyoao

It must be very frustrating. My heart goes out to you, folks.

Chill

i’m sorry this keeps on happening to you guys! every time i come across one i make sure to tag the both of you and to report :) i hope you guys can get this problem resolved soon!!! much prayers xx

shivermekimbersss

Like, the full bonus content videos? That’s messed up

Carlo Davies

love you all!!

Kaiden Stark

I hope they stop soon

MittenTroll

What's the best way to let you guys know about these videos. Because when I try to tag you in them it won't let me.

Soxbox

Is there anything you want us to do when we come across these accounts?

Sonny Joon

love you guys!

ky

Definitely trick cuz he's tricky!
