I've got to say, Jim's surprised me by doing a quite good job on post-election conversation. He's been measured and thoughtful and hasn't just gone after the easy comedy targets (crying university students etc). Removing him from Anthony "Open racist" Cumia and Gregg "Opie" "No opinion on anything to be honest widdya" Hughes continues to be a good move.

I just want to smile. Just once. I'd like to just, one time, go to Disney World and smile like the other boys and girls.
I was thinking the same thing. I don't know if it's because he's older now or because he's out of the toxic environment of O&A, but I fully expected a barrage of "whiny fuckin' BABIES!" and poo poo in response to the protests but he's been pretty chill

He actually said something pretty insightful about that in an interview.

quote:

Mr. Norton also completed a television pilot for IFC, which he is hoping will get picked up for a series. The plan is for each episode for take on something in pop culture that annoys him. In the pilot, the topic is white privilege—the idea that white people have it easier in the United States.

“When white people mention it, it makes me so angry I want to throw them down an elevator shaft—but I do think that white privilege exists,” he said. Part of the show is to examine why he reacts that way. “My reactions are irrational to these new ideas,” he said. “So you don’t want to be the old man just waving his fist at anyone in a college, ‘Ah, you young kids!’ That guy’s a predictable douche, so you don’t want to be that guy.”

He decided to stop being that way: to be open-minded “instead of spending the next 25 years in a shrinking cage, angry at everything.”

agreed ->
A multi-millionaire working for a radio station in the heart of NYC can't find a way to get tickets?

I doubt he even tried. Put as much effort into it as he did trying to keep Ant.

Without knowing any of the specifics, he probably should get free tickets for the 100s of hours of poo poo radio he's created by having boring fighters on.

That'll go over well with the subreddit. They're the personification of the quote above.

I almost forgot that O&A were the ones who pretty much ruined his time on the radio when he said an honest question that kinda revealed that O&A weren't some massive, giant comedy show.

I might be wrong but they might be referring to the time that R&F were talking about Paul McCartney coming visiting SiriusXM and Shelby candidly asked why Paul would want to go on the O&A show.
