I guess DiPaulo used to be funny, but I don't need a loving comedian's hot-takes on politics if there aren't even any jokes. I could get his material from any other Fox News shut-in.

As my friend said, people are paying more for his service than for Netflix content to hear a bunch of alt-righters spew distorted crime statistics and say how they are better than black people because of said statistics with mediocre jokes thrown in a bit.

Is East Side Dave still alive/not imprisoned?

I never listened to Ron & Fez before Fez locked up, but I'm assuming Ron actually progressed as a person from where he started, whereas the O&A crew seem to have halted any personal growth after their fame. I guess it worked for a long time though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Speaking of which, did anyone hear Black Earl on the radio yesterday when Chris called him out for not talking? He kept saying he was talking but everyone can hear he's not. And then he gets weirdly mad.

Yea it's great, it reminds me of Fez weirdness and has me questioning whether it's a work or not

Earl is the new Fez, right down to pointing out how he will "lock up".

"What does your family think you do for a living?"
"They know I work in radio..."
Earl, you've been doing this for how many years?

"Have you ever performed cunnilingus on a woman?"
"No, I have not" says the ~45 year old man.

He's so fascinating and bizarre and I'm digging him as the heel whether it's a work or not.

He also leaves out how on Legion of Skanks, where he mentioned Gomez chased out some dude pointing out a Proud Boy in the audience... Because the dude was yelling out his disagreement with the politics of another member of the audience minding his own business and watching a live comedy podcast.

That Seth Simons guy is a creep, and this is a passe term but appropriate in this case, SJW comedy policing failed performer. His whole schtick is comedy police, he rose to whatever prominence he has by getting Shane "Trump Rules" Gillis cancelled from SNL. The little fucker couldn't help but shout himself out in the article for that. He's trying to curry favor from blue check marks to further his own career.

Cumia, Compound, and McInness loving suck and it's great I don't have to listen to them, and I believe all the stuff he said about the OnA forums because those maniacs make TheDonald.win posters look civilized. But gently caress that guy for stirring up poo poo for Legion of Skanks or Oakerson. I wouldn't lump them in with the alt-right. They aren't even political (with the exception of Dave Smith, whose politics suck, but hey, he's libertarian).

Ended up listening to the Ron & Fez PennyStock Chaser contest, and was wondering how that company ended up.

PSC, PennyStockChaser, was a penny stock promotion company touting their picks for about a year.
The SEC has shut them down.



quote:

As alleged in our complaint, McKeown and Ryan used all the modern methods to communicate with investors including the PennyStockChaser website, e-mail, text messages, Facebook, and Twitter
yet failed to adequately communicate that their rosy predictions for touted stocks were
accompanied by their sales of those very same stocks.


Who could have guessed?

I mean when has anybody heard of a show where the host doesnt talk and when he does he cries. And you cant turn away because Ron's droppin killer lines and redirecting Fez's anger towards someone else in the room, which Fez would take entirely serious and build an instant grudge. Like what even is that???

Big Jay Oakerson was saying on the Bonfire yesterday how he walked in one day and Fez had a grudge against him for something. I remember hearing that show that week, it pops in my head a lot for some reason, it was really strange and I remember Jay being utterly perplexed and apologetic because he didn't know what he'd done to offend Fez. I think their show is where I first heard Big Jay.

He said he called Ron up at some point and asked if Fez still hated him, and Ron replied "Well, Fez doesn't ask me about you."

I'm glad I left before it got to that point.

Coincidentally, today was the seventh anniversary of the first Bennington show. They marked it by going around the room to talk about everyone's best moments of the past seven years, starting with Earl. Everyone started making GBS threads on Earl including the callers, and they never moved on to anyone else. As one person after another told stories (and even played clips) of Earl's weirdness and incompetence he of course flipped out, yelling at everyone. The only reason he even got on the show was because Gail had a baby and was out for months, and Ron needed another person to talk to besides Chris and Vito who were busy working the board and answering the phones.
