ozza posted:Also it seemed to me that Ron legitimately disliked ol' Shelbo. He was a relentlessly royal prick to him, with zero humour. At least when Ron bullied Earl he was occasionally funny about it. Yeah, it was weird. I think Ron was so tired of Fez at that point, that when Shelby started having personal issues and shutting down on the air like Fez, Ron wrote him off immediately.

I'm so happy that Dan and Jay's "lovely Song Writer" thing actually became a produced bit. "Riding in my Model T F ugh, no..." "Lost...in a big scary world is how I feel when you're--"

At that point Ron was just looking for people to help him with the three hour Bataan Death March. Chris Stanley at least knew how to fill time, and Shelby's sense of humor simply didn't mesh with Ron's. And by the end, the idea of another Fez had to be the last freaking straw, especially since Ron was well on his way of handing over Fez to someone else instead of being an agony aunt to a complete mess.

I really like the new-not-live Bonfires and wish they would do those every time. Radio shows don't need callers.

Jay and Soder are way too nice to callers, that's my one complaint about The Bonfire. There was one show where a few callers told some bullshit stories about sex or fighting, I forget which, and they had a guy on air for a few minutes sounding like he was making it up as he went along. I love Ron's way of hanging up on callers as soon they are done contributing.

I dunno, I laughed like hell at Shelby bashings. The fact that he couldn't fire anything back without stumbling over his words kinda tells you he wasn't cut out for this. And let's not forget Fez's general nastiness kinda bringing the show down alot. The fact that Shelby's doing poo poo with noted regular The Real rear end Dude The Puerto Rican Rattlesnake Luis J. Gomez tells me Ron was probably looking out for Shelby more than we realize. You also have to remember management didn't want Shelby there at all and he had already burned a ton of bridges with people when he bad mouthed OnA. Shelby made his own grave at that place.

Shelby's quick exit from Sirius really goes to show how much just being a name in a brand kept them from stabbing Fez in the kidneys and letting him bleed out in the street.

Shelby was mishandled a lot: he got popular because he interjects non sequiturs a lot. That's how he works. Thinking you're hiring someone who can be a good tech when the only thing they do is interject into a conversation was foolish to begin with. The idea of having him have to do producer work was short-sighted and stupid, especially when The Ron & Fez Show was sinking really fast due to Fez's issues. And he didn't make a grave at Sirius. If anything, the danger he faced there was getting killed by Fez or staying there for financial security and sinking any chance of a real career. O&A may have taken his joke like babies, but it's not like they have much pull in Sirius.

Oh poor loving Shelby didn't make it big in radio at 22 years old cuz mean Ol Ron and Fez didn't like him. But yer right it was dumb of them to expect a communications major who hadalready interned there to know how to do the behind the scenes stuff. You know the same stuff he'd lie about having gotten done like making sure replays and poo poo were loaded properly. Sirius didn't even want him there cuz he lied on his application. Look I like Shelby but he had his share of problems that were all his own making. I'm not saying crazy rear end Fez didn't make it harder. If I were in that situation I'd probably want to leave too, but this idea that Ron was any worse to him than anybody else that's been on that show is kinda stupid.

Shelby is like the dude the Yankees had last year when A-Rod was suspended. Dude was a career minor leaguer that got a shot because their main guy just wasn't there and they needed someone to plug the hole. Kid hit out of his mind for two months and people got excited thinking they found a diamond in the rough. However, he eventually started playing like a dude that never made it past AAA before, because that's what he was. But in the Ron and Fez world, all frustrations at Fez being shitass gets focused into the newer disappointments.

Anyone listen to the latest Cumia show? Keith the Cop told stories how to used to beat up people who pissed on the street and that he used to force homeless people who shat in an alleyway to pick up the poo poo and put it in their pockets. What a complete psychopath. No wonder the cop-public relationship is completely broken when people like that are working.

Shelby's cool because he threw out a childhood toy his dad sent into the show and - after Ron & Fez pulled it out of the trash and saved it until his dad died - threw it in the trash again.

General XM questions since this is where I've always asked them anyway over the years, and at least one is related to The !Virus. 1) Right now I'm an (XM) subscriber with All Access, using an Onyx. I'm looking to buy a new Honda or Mazda with satellite built in. Is it going to be at all easy to convert that to an add-on to my existing subscription so as to get both sides (including Opie) in a second vehicle at a discount? 2) The Onyx has a set of extra channels that I like quite a bit. Are newer car installs going to have similar functionality? 3) Speaking of, where the gently caress did Classic College Radio 319 go?

Is it going to be at all easy to convert that to an add-on to my existing subscription so as to get both sides (including Opie) in a second vehicle at a discount? The "Xtra" thing is mentioned on their page for like only four models so I wouldn't count on it. That's going to be a lot harder to figure out anything online, their page just lists if it does audio, weather and traffic. Maybe some XM fan forum or something is keeping track. You could ask XM or the manufacturer but I bet they both lie because they don't know and just want you to buy it. You may be better off than this just getting a car stereo that plays off your smartphone and use the money to upgrade your data plan. T-Mobile doesn't even count SiriusXM traffic toward your limit, considering it part of their 'music' feature. You might as well find out what another radio sub costs and crunch the numbers. Remember you can pre-download some shows with the phone app too, though they expire. If you do go the smartphone-to-car route make sure it actually plays off the phone somehow and doesn't just connect for phone calls. Yeah you could figure something out but if you're buying a new car you should have it how you want it. CrashCat fucked around with this message at 17:46 on Oct 11, 2015 |

Now that torrents are down if I get an audible subscription to Bennington does that include ads? Is there a way to like play it on demand on smartphones or anything or do you have to download MP3s and put them on your device?
