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.

You know who's pretty fun in the mornings (unless his unabashed progressive politics turn you off) is Pete Dominick on 121 at 9am. He's got 3 producers who are stand-ups and they get some great lines in here and there. It's usually half journalists / authors talking about issues and half comedians doing a 'hang'

Pete also has tons of vocal tics that he picked up from listening to Anthony. It's funny to hear them if like me you listened to O&A for years.

lol if you didn't know this about DiPaolo already. Of all those O&A nerds, I'd rank him bottom 3 (between Opie and Fez) in terms of punch throwing ability.

I actually used to like DiPaolo when he was a poo poo talking wise guy wannabe. Once he went all in on the culture war stuff, he lost his funny.

I really enjoyed the slow decline into silent Fez. It will be the weirdest thing on radio forever.

My favorite was when callers would be furious, just screaming at Fez to talk and support Ron and consider all the money he's getting paid to do nothing, etc etc, just frothing at the mouth from word one.

Then:

Ron: Any response to that Big Cat?

Fez: <audible sigh>

That said, one of the greatest tragedies of this whole thing is that you can see how racism can destroy a genuinely funny guy. Ant has his issues, but he had some really funny moments. By all rights in an alternate reality him and Jimmy are doing a MST3K for the entire run of the Ropers and making fun of the theme. That's what we could have had, and Ant's problems just robbed us of that fun.

Edit: gently caress it, here's the Ropers bit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FO4XW0JbGdI&t=263s

I'm with you. Anthony used to make me laugh so hard. I think that by the end of 2009 (gulp 10 years ago) I was done. Even most of that year I was only listening to the first hour + if they had a good guest. Like Jay Mohr or Louie or someone fun to bounce off. The racism was too much.

I started listening to Pete Dominick's morning show, a little less funny but he was great interviewer in that he would make colossal hilarious mistakes. Like the time he told Laura Dern mid interview he was sorry for her father's passing ( Bruce Dern is still alive). But he's cancelled now. Frank Conniff was great on Fugelsangs show but he got fired for calling Chris Christie fat too many times.

I dont even know where to go anymore for my daily dose and its bumming me out. Bonfire or Chapo just dont do it for me, they're both pale imitations of the real thing.

R&F was such a bizarre circus that will probably always be great to revist. God bless Disco Dog on Youtube for posting tons of clips.

I got really into Tim Heideckers show On Cinema web show this year and I had this realization that what I love about it is there's two middle aged men playing heel-ish versions of themselves having passive aggressive snippy fights about mundane pop culture bullshit.

Which is exactly what I loved about Ron and Fez back in the day.
