Most racial-based humor on the old XM shows feels extremely gross today (and didn't feel great then), but I think this bit from Ron and Fez threads the needle.

quote:

East Side Dave: <References saying the n-word by saying the n-word>

Ron: Hey, I don't want anyone around here using that word. The only ones who get to say it are Earl, and me.

East Side Dave: Why do you get to say it?

Ron: In case I need to yell at Earl.

The delivery was so quick and matter-of-fact. Ron was (is?) a drat genius.

I remember some racial humor from R&F back in the day but as I’ve been re-listening to the XM stint from the beginning it gets really rough at times. Ron finally starts reining it in on the callers after the first Christmas at XM it feels.

Patrice and Louis discussing the origins of racial slurs and Louis's ethnicity and hair texture was certainly a moment.

Louie's joke might be the funniest thing that's ever happened on the radio ever, especially bc you can tell the moment he thinks of it and barely gets thru it without laughing over it

It is like some primal Ur-Joke, it's so horrible but it is just the essence of comedy. It Exists and things make more sense now.

Its the one-two punch of Patrice giving a sincere explanation and then CK going with the sudden punchline.

Also, unlike most racial humor that happens in the shows, there was almost no regard for the definition/nuance of that word. It's abstract because the word itself is funny and taboo, especially within the rhythm of how all that played out.

I often think back on Bob Kelly's 'Where we goin'?!' bit where he played as a catchphrase comedian, and Ant continuously barking in as someone who just wanted to do racial stuff. It was drawn out and clearly the intended idea was someone (Ant) yelling 'THOSE people suck, right?!', which is just tedious.

It is very funny how bad the bets both Bob Kelly and Norton made were. Bob Kelly glommed onto Dane Cook and Jim onto Jay Leno in the time immediately following the Leno/Conan stuff

I will admit, having seen Bobby twice, that fucker puts on a great show. I want to eat with that bastard! I also love Louie trying to explain Bobby to his kids during the Patrice memorial show, explaining how lovely Boston is and that's why he curses so much.

Ron said he was invited by "another comic" to go to Epstein's for dinner, and he declined because he'd already heard about Epstein pleading guilty in 2008 to procuring a minor for prostitution in Florida. It has to be Bobby Slayton. Anybody else remember that?

I think I remember him telling that story after Flat Head called in about Ghislaine. It was fairly recently, a few months ago.
