feigning interest posted:one of my favorite things on r&f was that fez would buy breakfast for pepper every morning unless he was angry at him over something dumb so for a while ron would start every show by asking him if he had eaten breakfast and if the answer was 'no' then he'd immediately play hunger strike by temple of the dog lmao I was not aware this was a thing but that's hilarious

Another Bill posted:Fwiw I met Ron outside the Stand last year and he was a super nice guy. I loving embarrassed to walk up and tell him I was a fan (my wife goaded me into it) but Ron was extremely gracious and even asked us a bunch of questions about where we were from, our kids etc. Nice dude, really nice dude. Zero sign of the gruff radio tough act. old post but this is nice to hear. I haven't subscribed to SiriusXM in at least a year but I do miss listening to Ron during lunch. based on the past few pages it seems like nothing has changed since I dropped it but that's probably good since it seemed like they were in a good place once Gail got there (though not as utterly compelling as the Silent Fez days).

Ron and Fez was well worth a subscription, clearly Bennington isn’t to me since I haven’t reupped in a while but I was thinking I’d like to for 5 a month so I could listen to it at lunch

In all seriousness I hope Ron doesn’t catch this thing. Or Fez. Pretty sure both fall under the at-risk designation.

JFC posted:Still remote. They've been building up to the big election...that is, the election of President of the Producers. Chris Stanley is running against Earl Douglas with Vito as Earl's campaign manager. Chris has been making campaign ads and posting them on Instagram and Friday was a big day when Earl got a cameo endorsement from Trump's ex campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, which Chris slammed him on, Earl disavowed, and shocked Gail and Ron. Today it came to light that Margaritaville (nee Hard Rock) Johnny paid for the cameo to gently caress with Earl and Chris has denied knowing about it. You know, your usual Bennington side nonsense. drat, now you've made me miss it. It's a shame episodes aren't still posted on Audible.

Listening to Ron bennington I always kind of thought of that group as the "new york comedy scene", but I realize now it's just a very specific and lovely strain of the new york comedy scene. And Ron sure pals around with shitbags huh

Oh right, I was confusing him with Hard Rock Johnny. Mikey Boy and Mafia Life Chris are familiar names but I can't say I remember anything they ever did on the show.

still prefer that to some crappy comedian guest. Ron was friends with all these O+A adjacent NY comedy guys and had them on the show, but was so much funnier than any of them. like do people actually find Rich Vos funny?

# ¿ Jul 16, 2021 17:26 |

fair enough, it's been a long time and I just remember never being impressed. speaking of comedian guests, I'll never forget the time Ron and Fez had Todd Barry in and it was horribly awkward, and not funny Fez awkward. can't remember the specifics but I think Fez brought up some grim news story and Todd was extremely uncomfortable joking about it.

JFC posted:I used to listen to O&A and R&F while playing pc games and there are times when I hear clips from old shows and I'm suddenly taken back to a Call of Duty II custom map that I haven't thought of in years. yeah the connection between listening to something and what I was doing when listening is weirdly strong. one clip makes me think of a specific area of Borderlands 2 I was playing when I listened to it.
