Asnorban posted:I generally like Fred. Him talking about being able to beat up everyone in Boards of Canada was pretty great. Jessica from Ithaca DOES suck and her band is dreadful but she's at least had something to say in the past. Cat from Raleigh has never had a good call and when she got a cat she didn't even name it Human. Like why are you even calling?

Didn't Cat provide an introduction to herself as a caller last time like Tom does for more interesting repeat callers?

This was another dud topic. Everyone's story about what they need to unburden themselves with was poo poo like "I called someone fat when I was a kid." "I messed up some lines in a play." "I had cancer."

I HATED Fred for like three years and then all of a sudden I realized I loved him. That stupid laugh grows on you. Jessica from Ithaca is the worst caller in my entire personal history of listening to the show. I want to be extra gracious because she's obviously trans, but she's just a completely valueless, annoying presence. I really have no clue why she gets on. I miss Jason from Huntsville - any reason he doesn't call up anymore? I stood up and cheered when Spike called the other day. The callers have gotten way, way too obsequious and fawning, esp. the influx of Steven Universe fans. I love Spike's utter bored contempt for everything.

Pretty sure Jason from Huntsville mentioned not having time to listen to the show live as often (due to kids I think?)

I think this is more a "frustrated with Twitter" tweet than a "the best show is over" tweet. (His account got hacked a little while ago.)

Robbie Robertson was on WTF recently and it tickles me to imagine Tom listening to that and the amount of times he would roll his eyes and say "Oh brudder."

There's been a shakeup in the staff for Divorce, and co-showrunner Paul Simms was given the boot. I think that Tom and Paul are friends, and that seems like it has something to do with whatever is going on.

On a brighter note, Tom said on the show that he recorded an episode of Gilbert Gottfried's podcast that should be coming out soon. He mentioned singing a duet with Gilbert on it, which should be something.

I never thought I'd seriously be asking this but... is he using a voice modulator?

From what I've researched, his 'radio voice' is pretty heavily treated with a voice modulator. I think he turns off the machine when he sings and does his famous impressions.

I've met Tom a few times, the Joe Namath impression is his actual speaking voice. Wouldn't make for very good radio.

I wonder if the Wurster call tonight was planned or if Jon called in to keep Tom from having a breakdown.

That was a legendary bad call. edit: This is such a crazy episode since snarky Tom is the best, but he's really pissed off.

I mean the plus side to the Wurster call is that it's clearly not planned and it's like if they were just talking on the phone normally, the down side is that this happened because Tom is having a nervous breakdown.
