Have any listeners brought up the lovely audio quality that is Rawdog on the air since the move? What did Ron say?

The comedians and Ron ragging on Fez (and his big gay mustache) today were pretty great- it felt like good O&A. Also good proof that Fez is here to stay since he can easily roll with these situations Ron will keep pushing him into.

When he was in talking about his magical healing powers I thought he was great, a great gimmick, charismatic, ideal guest. For some reason, now he has some sort of booking power and is treated with respect? I don't get that part.

Just got back from seeing Otto and George here in Manchester. Goddamn what a great show! He absolutely killed it. And apparently Vos is going to be back here in April, which is awesome. Going to also try to see Colin in Plymouth in February.

Not crazy about Gurian, but I have to admit his appearance on Friday was pretty good. The drama with Dean Edwards was interesting and his Woody Allen story was great.

Incidentally, most of the things I mentioned above are beliefs professed by Jimmy as well. The only difference is Jimmy doesn't couch his proclamations in a perceived ethnic superiority. Other than that, he's lockstep with Ant. Sorry, don't want to turn this into a political derail. Just want to make it perfectly clear, Ant is a far-right republican at best. He is most definitely not a libertarian, even if he thinks he is.

That faux-apathy thing that he believes puts him above "diversity" and "acceptance" but really just highlights what a despicable racist and bigot he is.

UncleMonkey posted:Ant isn't a libertarian. Not even close. He's a racist, right wing authoritarian. If he claims to be a libertarian, then he has no idea what that word actually means. Ant believes in an authoritarian justice system that is taken at its word (especially when it comes to minorities) and where people's constitutional rights are nearly non-existent. He believes in immediate and brutal execution without the right to appeal. He loves, loves, LOVES police brutality-- the more brutal the better-- and dreams of a police state in which everyone (except for him, of course), is yanked off the street, harassed, and brutalized based on nothing more than the whims of cops (which are never to be questions and who never do wrong). He believes in the TSA and that people should be singled out based solely on their perceived religion and skin color. He believes that certain groups of people are racially superior to others, whom he considers sub-human and less deserving of rights. He also collects Nazi paraphernalia and seemingly only doesn't have a go at Jews because they sign his paychecks. He's a textbook fascist. Take him back to 1930's Germany and he'd be all over Hitlers balls.

From what I've gathered, Ant is one of those guys who acts tough but is easily pushed around by anybody he meets. He reacts not by learning and pushing back, but pushing the tough guy image to the point where it breaks: paranoia over being defenseless and displaced anger towards convenient targets to mask self-loathing over not being able to be assertive. Which is really sad as he's really loving funny and deserves a better life than dealing with all of these issues and letting them ruin what could be a very awesome life.

If that kid didn't always try to rob young Ant of 50 cents at school, he'd probably be a normal person today. I doubt he'd be as funny though, so gently caress it. I can forgive a nazi, provided they created a character as enduring as Andrew 'Dice' Gay.

What in the hell would ever make you think this? You don't become a unique and gigantically successful multi-millionaire by being easily pushed around. Nothing at all about Ant's personality, career, or life would lead me to believe he's easily pushed around. His life is not being ruined by anything -- he loving lives in a god drat mansion and does whatever he wants all the time. You just said that Anthony Cumia deserves a better life.

Almost every single time Ant has had the opportunity to confront a person that they've been bashing behind that person's back, he clams up or completely shifts personalities into this kowtowing yes-man. I can't remember him ever actually confronting someone who was a "celebrity" or someone who may, in some context, be considered an equal. He will only poo poo on callers (subhuman) and blacks (subcaller).

It's almost like he's very good at his job. edit: it's also got to put things in perspective when you actually meet and talk to a person you've bashed. It's easy to talk poo poo about someone but when you meet them and they're nice or charming or interesting or whatever then "confronting" them quickly becomes a dumb thing to do.
