Gab



Gab.ai or Gab for short, is a alternate social media website that pushes to be free speech that was caused when Twitter was censoring tweets and accounts. Ghost advocated for the website as an alternate in case Ghost was banned from Twitter. During early March 2017 until the show's hiatus on May 8th, 2017, Ghost frequently took shoutouts from Gab, either after or before Twitter Shoutouts. People have to "repost" instead of retweet, or even like the post. Ghost was outraged that Trolls made it to Gab and made the same shoutout names like what would be on Twitter.

He later vowed that if Gab verified him on their site, he would exclusively take Gab shoutouts for the rest of the year. Gab later introduced a subscription service for verification, which Ghost was initially in opposition of. However, he later offered to pay for 5 year's worth of it, and was verified shortly thereafter. Following Ghost's suspension off Twitter, he mentioned in a ghost.report article that Gab is now his social media of choice, with him frequently posting articles on there, albeit not as often as he used to on Twitter.

Upon Ghost's return from his break on October 31, 2017, he initially only took Gab shoutouts, removing Twitter functionality from the show entirely due to his suspension from Twitter in June 2017. Recently, Gab Shoutouts has been placed on a lower priority in favor of taking shoutouts from Ghost's own chatroom.

Ghost has recently partnered with Gab as a "Premium" user, with people being able to subscribe to Ghost through Gab for $5 a month to get access to Ghost's Chatroom. He has also utilized Gab as a means of accepting new Inner Circle members, with people being able to tip him $300 to get access to the IC.

Upon his announcement of his impending departure from BlogTalkRadio, some people asked if Ghost could do the show on Gab. However, Ghost says he's skeptical on if Gab can handle the amount of people TCR pulls in on a consistent basis. Ghost has attempted a handful of streams on the site, all have had some level of technical difficulties.
