Anyone who have child, sit down and talk to their 2 year old as they have first thought, fear or feeling, you fall in love and it make all the BS worth it, though that part is hard ha.
My mom is a realtor and after Obama won she received countless calls from black people wanting their " Obama house" 😂😂😂😂 they literally thought they were going to get free houses because of black guy was in office
He duped the masses. He promised to get us out of the war; he started several more wars. He promised to help the economy; the economy was never worse. He promised to help young people get their college tuition affordable; it skyrocketed. He promised to help single moms with childcare; it increased to where I questioned what I was working for when after paying childcare my check was gone. He promised to get affordable healthcare; he mandated we sign up for his healthcare or we got fined. Gas prices were never higher under him. He reversed us back to the 60s brainwashing blacks to think they didn't have rights they did. He created BLM after reversing law that said our own media cannot propagandize its own citizens creating a reality from Media mind control. Not to mention those sick "Whitehouse parties" and all the trafficking. The ONLY promise he kept was: "Fundamentally change America" Anthony accurately predicted the future
He was incompetent and corrupt, a walking empty suit who gave lofty pompous speeches but offered very little in terms of actual leadership and vision. He's the biggest shyster fraud in American presidential history who the public was pushed into voting for because he was not just a liberal Democrat but (half) black. He loved having the title of president but didn't want to do the hard work required of it. He came into office thinking it was going to be a lot easier than it really was. Which is actually understandable when you've been told for years and years how brilliant you allegedly are. Of course his 8 years was completely propped up by a sympathetic media who refused to ask him any hard questions or cover his scandals. The national debt went way up while the economy stayed fairly tepid but he kept blaming Bush year after year for his own economic incompetence. ("The economy I inherited when I came into office...) Blaming the previous guy is standard issue for all new Presidents but after two or three years it doesn't work anymore after you're well established in the White House. The only thing he accomplished was making health insurance more expensive than it had to be and running up the national debt. I'll give him credit for the successful Bin Laden raid and he was fairly good on keeping up the terror strikes overseas but even with that I'm still slightly hesitant because he had to be dragged into it kicking and screaming afraid that if it didn't work it would make HIM look bad which is a trait of all narcissists. If you look at that famous photo of him in the Situation Room he looks like a small scolded child sulking in the corner and you can see his golf shirt on underneath his jacket because they had the drag him off the golf course (go figure). But when it was successful he strutted up to the podium making himself out to be George S Patton. When I think of Obama all I really remember are the pompous speeches before jetting his family off on AF1 to yet another vacation or playing golf. That's about it.
Wow, Anthony's confusion about being attracted to black guys literally drives him crazy. Anthony... we aren't your dad. You can come out of the closet now. No one will make fun of you, i promise
I hate how Opie always talks about being uncomfortable with Aunt talks about his marriage and stuff. He's a great storyteller what makes him so uncomfortable when he vents. It's probably the relatability / empathy contrasting with Opie's sociopathic tendencies
25:10 O&A is one of my favorite things to listen to but oh my dear god does it kill me when they interrupt the flow of actual comedians with literal soundboard button mashing for 2 minutes straight
Anthony Cumia is INSANELY dumb and doesn't at all understand how oil companies work (but when has someone knowing what they're talking about ever stopped them from pontificating).
Obviously this isn't the funniest or most poignant show they ever did, but if you've been listening a long time, there's definitely a few tidbits and random aside comments that are kind of awesome to see were already a part of the show from Day 1 at XM. 1. Master Po is the first-ever guest (as someone already pointed out). It's funny to hear them take him seriously, especially knowing some of the weird-ass incidents Po was involved in later. 2. An awkward re-introduction of Ben Sparks, followed by very awkward introductions of Steve C and Erock (who they just call "Erik the Sex Bagel") with their first on-air appearances. 3. They say they are trying hard not to curse and it really takes until about two hours in before people are cussing more freely (its mostly the callers and Jim at first). 4. The 'I want to make a racist joke' bell is still just the 'inappropriate bell' and Ant really only mentions black people during his Howard rant and makes a joke about feeling safer with Patrice being off the street while doing Tough Crowd (3:39:29). He's not quite "FBI crime statistics" Anthony for a few more years. He doesn't even own a gun yet. 5. Steve C was making weird, violent, and misogynist promos from the very first XM show. 6. Lady Di and Marion were there, and Lady Di is still almost normal here. Only a year or two after this she was a total mess and like 6 beers deep at 6 AM every time she called. 7. There's a sneaky Scorch reference from instant feedback that mentions 'wanting pizza instead of hamburger" 8. Jimmy was still doing Tough Crowd during this show, but it was canceled because Jim says multiple times he only has to listen to Colin as his boss 'for another month'. 9. These awkward gaps between air time and the limited amount of production actually associated with the show (and the lack of sounds on the sound board) show just how much they had to build their entire operation back up from scratch. They especially mention switching from the afternoon drive slot to the morning drive slot and how much that would change the show (which actually added so much to how ridiculous the show ended up being when they were doing some of their insane bits when half of the west coast was still asleep). 10. Very cool to hear multiple mentions of Vos, a Vos phoner, and extensive discussion of Last Comic Standing to end their very first XM radio show. The story about Vos breaking Opie's hand on the golf course is one of the only interesting golf stories every told on the show, if had been on a 'most vicious' type of show it would have been an hour long riff. I'm surprised I've never heard it and I'm surprised it didn't come up later. There's also the first mention on XM of 'Voscabulary', which grew so big they eventually had lining the walls of the studio by the end of the show. 11. First ever Jimmy 'monumental bomb' on satellite at 3:39:48 . If only they had the car crash sound
3:29:12 Vos tries to slam Jimmy with a "Filet Mignon" joke and Jim mentions that Vos is to dumb to have already known how to say that right, and then mentions he's been collecting a list of phrases and words that Vos fucked up. So it was Jimmy's idea to start collecting Vos' idiocy into an entire list. So that's the origin of Voscabulary
