Ducktales Blogger posted:I'm new to the Ron&Fez show... My introduction was this year's jocktober, then the blueberry incident, and then listening to the link in the OP and then a few other older recordings that I found on youtube and... What exactly is Fez's deal? When and why did he basically shut down and stop participating on the show? Was it before or after he came out? Fez has always been a weird duck. His problems first appeared on air in 2002 when they were at WNEW, things began to amplify when they moved to Washington DC (2004?) and he went completely off the rails when he had his first heart attack a few weeks after their first XM broadcast. He's never been able to get a handle on it after that point and it's been worked into the character of Fez Whatley.

Holy gently caress, Fez gave Ron a pack of matches that Ron gave him the first night they met twenty years ago. Oh god, he framed them

The picture is even better. I like to imagine Fez walking up and down the frame aisle looking for the perfect one that'd make Ronnie's face light up.

spudsbuckley posted:That gift really isn't all that bad. It's really something you have to hear the story to get the full context. Ron was just some guy doing standup at some mall. He came up to Fez's table, all hosed up, after the show to try to pick up Fez's friend. They didn't know each other. They weren't colleagues or co-workers. They didn't work together until years later. For Fez to pick up a pack of matches on that night and hold on to them for twenty+ years and then think it was an appropriate gift to give Ron...he's legit crazy.

Plant Kingdom posted:By the way, I haven't heard Ron and Fez in maybe 4 months. Is it basically just Ron and Pepper like it has been for a while ... is it still in stasis? Did Black Earl show up lately or anything else interesting like that happen? Any huge guests? Someone sum it up again for me. (Yes, I read the OP) They moved channels. It's a cluster gently caress. Pepper has been moved into the Al Dukes/Black Earl incompetent producer role. Classic Shelb has been hired full time. Fez talks more but it isn't funny or in the Fez voice. There's a laundry list of comics scheduled to come in but nobody takes Ron's lead so it will degenerate into the same format of interviews/sports talks. That's about it.

Ha, I'm amazed that they got an old school comedy pyramid off the ground. Either Vito is killing it on the phones or most of the hayseed trucker crowd O&A draws didn't make the transition.

returnh posted:When you truly begin to understand the Ron and Fez show, you will realize the truth: there was no cat. Church. The original origin story of Skippy was it was a feral cat Fez found in New York. During the Skippy talks episode, Fez hosed up and said he bought it (or got it from a shelter) I don't know where Fez got that one cat from for the photo but I doubt it was his. Remember this is the same guy who hid moving from retard island for over a year.

I got to say, the two young comics who came in today were really good. They were fast paced and doing the style of radio Ron wants to do better than him. More guests like them and less of the tuna jew.

UncleMonkey posted:The battery in Fez's smoke detector is dead and it's making that loud chirping sound and Fez has just been ignoring it and living with it because he says he can't reach it. That was the only redeeming thing of today's show. But man, it was glorious to hear Ron stumble onto all the problems with Fez's apartment as Pepper/Shelb loving lost it in the background.

An Enormous Boner posted:They sound wildly different. What stories reminded you of college drinking? He got drunk and acted like a douchey teenager because he was one. "I got drunk and walked around with a knife. I got drunk and called the FBI." I got drunk on Christmas day after getting in a fight with my family, vomited black poo poo all over my friend's bathroom, blacked out in his hallway for a few hours and then I spent the next three days vomited every hour on the hour. Doesn't mean I was an alcoholic, just that I was an immature idiot. It's a good thing he doesn't drink because he probably would take it too far like everything else in his life but the fact he pretends like he knows being an alcoholic/addict because he did some stupid things while drunk and went to rehab at 17 is annoying as poo poo.

WhiteHowler posted:For the folks who listen to Ron and Fez via Audible, how quickly do the episodes generally go up for download? Does the Audible mobile app support automatic downloads? Most of the time, they're up by 6 PM EST. Some times, there's an issue with Friday's show where it doesn't go up until the weekend or Monday but it's getting rare. Don't know about the mobile app.

TL posted:So my XM sub is about to run out. I just can't get myself into O&A or R&F these days, and since the music stations don't do much for me, I'm thinking I'm going to give up on the platform for awhile. I'll still check the thread, but I think I need an extended break, because I'm not finding a lot of enjoyment in either show right now. It's been fun, guys. Did you hear Rory Scovel on yesterday's Ron & Fez? It was really, really strong after an abysmal first half of Olympics chat/hashtag contest.

Today's Ron & Fez was strong. Fez is homeless rumor spreading through the hallways, Fez getting stuck on top of his dresser trying to fix his smoke detector, Pepper/Shelby giving him poo poo, Boy George Jr, What's In The Box getting even more terrible, Fez getting increasingly pissed as the show goes on to the point where he backslides into Old Angry Fez. Granted, I'm only an hour in so I guess it could all fall apart.

Anybody else think that Opie has a big painkiller issue or is sleeping like 2 hours a night? He locks onto one person in a conversation and he doesn't get any humor unless that person says it. He either steamrolls the laughs or he waits until there's an opening to say what he was planning to say beforehand. But goddamn, did I love Ron pulling back the curtain. Fez's current downward spiral started because a person from sales yelled at him.

Can't wait to hear today's Ron & Fez show. Apparently, Fez had a meltdown and Ron laid the boots into him.PK loving SUBBAN posted:I'm a long time listener and I'm struggling with Rawdog Ron and Fez. What the gently caress happened to Hicks? He left his balls on the O&A channel or something. I think I heard him say on Davey Mac's show that's he's cut way back on his drinking/drugs.

ChristianDB posted:although I agree with your sentiment, it's far from great. I see today dan soder is on so that could be a fun show. But the game show 1/10 comics being good is pretty lovely. It's uneven but classic Ron & Fez was the same way. For every classic bit or good roll, there was a Big rear end Simulcast or some terrible nonsense. Shelby stinks on the board and needs on air time more. If I had to guess, I think all the prize stuff is to attract new listeners and that even Ron realizes that Gurian is loving terrible radio. Once they make their own connections in the comedy world, they won't need him anymore.
