Some people here are saying they won’t be an ad. I get that, but I proudly wear my Darknet Diaries t shirt. I’m sure there’s a large margin that goes to Jack. But it’s worth it to me. I might get another shirt now that I’m thinking about it.

Omg. That is the only yt merch I've ever purchased. I got a shirt and a print! Big ups fellow listener!

I feel differently about clothing that has the name of the clothing company on it than I do clothing that has the name of a podcast or something like that.

Exactly

If I'm paying for the shirt why do I need to do free advertising for the company I bought it from?

The comfy in-between is references that seem broadly appropriate, and blatant in-jokes that just sound interesting. Respectively: the "you go girl" shirts with Jax on them, and bumper stickers reading "stay sexy and don't get murdered." You don't have to know the thing they're from. You don't have to know they're from a thing.

There's no bit of branding on there though and the artwork is pretty neat. I wish the print was higher quality though.
