A hundred times this. I see 30ish new posts this morning and think something interesting has happened.

Nope, it's the same few people who "only listen to R&F anymore" repeating the same shite about Ant being racist and Jim being a hypocrite once again.

I don't understand how you're placing the blame of "Discussing what happened today" on the listeners, rather than the people putting out the content. :psyduck:

In actual news, I guess Jimmy is doing a talk show with Vice.

Seems like a marriage made in heavan. Vice, willing to go anywhere in the world for a story. Jim Norton, needs to be flown first class and won't go to Europe and do shows.

Kurt Metzger is also on board as a co-writer.

The telling thing is that their show is so low profile these days that Anthony can be a white supremacist all he wants and no one in the media picks it up or talks about it.

What should we discuss if the racist talk getting old and expressing that is not a good thing to discuss? I don't know what to say, should we talk about some boring interview they did last week?

I must say while they played the audio of Sterling today Anthony really had nothing to say and was pretty much "yeah, that's really bad."

Yeah honestly I read the last page and had no idea what the gently caress people were talking about, but I guess most of that was based on twitter before the show happened and poo poo. If you had a problem with their take on the radio, I don't know what you're listening to, because they certainly did not defend Sterling.

It's an unusual story compared to your daily "someone famous said something inappropriate" clickbait anyway because of the obvious tie-ins with his history of housing and workplace discrimination. Jim never defends anyone's lovely views when it crosses over to that.

Who knows what makes some things "go viral" and others not. Opie's homeless cake thing got picked up, one of Ant's rant could be just as well.

That was so loving insane that my mind is still blown 10 hours later.

I really don't understand why Bill hasn't kicked her out of his house. I know they're both co-dependent drunks but he literally gets nothing out of this. He pays for her entire life and she still is stealing money from him and acting like it's no big deal. Then again, I don't know what he expects when giving Di his bank card. Did he really expect her to be honest and responsible?

It's crazy that given the length of the history Lady Di has with the show that we're only now learning. She was dishonorably discharged from the navy (and somehow, that's not even the craziest part of that story). And now she admits to regularly smoking crack three years ago (but claims not to be doing it anymore... yeah, right).

I mean... Jesus Christ. And as hate-able as Marion is, I really enjoyed her yelling at Di today and then angrily hanging up. And of course, Opie continuing to interject confused, miserable, dejected Bobo into the middle of the chaos made it even funnier.

We've been on such a sympathetic roller coaster with Lady Di from laughing at her clumsiness on Super Shows to feeling bad about her alcohol withdrawals during intern week to the unbelievable story of her getting mugged a few days later and now being disgusted at her stealing money from Bill to fuel her crack habit. What a wreck of a woman.

She never got mugged. She is sooo hosed up. The best thing for her is death, it sucks to say but drat she's pathetic.

She admitted she smoked crack. The guys think the reason why she lost her internship money was that she smoked it all and it wasn't from being mugged outside the ghetto chicken place.

I thought it wasn't that she smoked it all away but that the reason she was in a bad neighborhood wasn't because she had to go to that chicken place but because she was looking to score and she got loving rolled. Not that it matters really. Because of course there's the fact she's stealing money from Bill (even though he keeps her well stocked in beer). Does sound a lot like she's trying to cop. And Marian was pretty furious at her.

She's utterly worthless.

I will say that I enjoyed the moment during racism talk when Ant was singing 'Ebony & Ivory' over the top of the two callers arguing.

Also, didn't see much mention here of Jimmy's Vice show. What are everyone's thoughts about it? I foresee a hell of a lot of blinking, bug eyeing and (in CQ's words) doing an imitation of an intellectual.

Even though they're basically just kids (getting bombarded by vile O&A fans), I'm still amused by them complaining about being picked on and bullied while in the same breath saying that "all white cis males should be dead."

I don't know how Jim got it into his head that he's a good interviewer, but he's not. I can't really see it going well. Jim thinks that reading someone's wiki/imdb page in front of them (and then getting corrected for asking about erroneous information) is a sign of a good interview.

Fake Roland is awesome.

And finally some more Lady Di drama. Her 'you're not addicted except....' nonsense was gold. No wonder people have cut her out of their lives. She's just going to die and we're going to find out about it when they pull her body out of the swamp three weeks after the fact. They could mine for more gold simply by having a psychologist talk to her in studio and see what is going on in that swiss cheesed brain of hers.

What started the twitter drama exactly? I tried sorting through it all but twitter is a loving mess to try and read if you didn't catch it while it was happening or it wasn't contained in a conversation or two.

The most I gathered was that people were making assumptions about Jim because he casually uses "the T word."

I gotta say though the rabid fan response poo poo, while funny, could be misconstrued as O&A and Jim not being able to defend themselves without sending the attack dogs when it's really just the pests pining for the boys' attention. I think it probably does more harm than good.

Some weirdo underage brony, who's banging a tranny, made like 5 rapid fire tweets to Jim. Jim responded which set everything in motion.
