I normally don't post on message boards but I just signed up in order to publicly express my support for ESD.  I find him absolutely hilarious and will be very disappointed if he is forced to leave.  I enjoyed the show before ESD was hired on but enjoy it even more now that he is on.Realistically I know my opinion counts for nothing and he'll probably get fired. I think Dave probably broke the rule about commiserating with interns or listeners.   I could tell Ron was PO's for real today when he didn't even want to hash this out on the air.  It would have made for great radio but Ron didn't even want to touch it.  To Dave: Good luck bro'.

I know a lot of people don't so much like ESD, but I would hate to see him off the show. He gets into such stupid, hilarious shit, and I think it would be a detrement to the show have him fired. That being said, he deserved to be fired on the spot for reading Earl's emails. And if he was hanging out with interns outside of the show on top of that, he's gone.

neither of those guys is really going to strike up any

I wouldn't go so far as to say that the show NEEDS Dave. I mean, we all laugh at his zany antics, logical thought and great bits...but does the show NEED him? No Way. The show was great before Dave,it is great with Dave, it will be great without Dave. The only difference is that Fez will talk more.

Not necessarily.  I think ESD is unfairly blamed for the fact that Fez is sometimes more quiet.  As Ron said on the air, Fez is recovering from a heart attack, and some days he's not 100%.  On those days they have to depend on Earl and Dave to lighten the load on Fez.

TheQuestion

06-14-2006, 05:58 PM

And I don't think Ron's rule about Dave not hanging with the interns was a bit.  He sounded serious as a heart attack when he was dressing down Dave that day.  I have no idea if that's what set Ron off today or not, but with Dave it could be anything.  That lunatic is capable of so many things that could piss someone off.

As for the racist callers, it is indeed troubling at times. I have started to wonder if they really think that they are joining the bit, or if they don't get the bit at all and just want to be racist, or the third option (my favorite): they are fans of Ani DiFranco. Ugh. I just heard a guy call in with something about Earl's N-dick. Ecccchhh. Really makes me look at SOME of the O&A listeners differently...

This sucks. I think the show's really hitting its stride on XM and if Dave has to go bye-bye, it's going to hurt the show. I don't know what he did but Ron sounded fucking pissed and it seems like Dave has done something every day to piss off Ron, Fez and Earl.I don't want Dave to go though. The show is better with him as producer and I've said that from day one.

Se7en

06-14-2006, 08:36 PM

I won't miss him.  There's just TOO MUCH Dave on the radio.  You can rationalize it all you want to as Fez still being sick, but still, that is no excuse to give Dave more airtime than Fez, which does happen, and far too often.  Dave's schtick is tolerable in small doses, not in large quantities.

Death Metal Moe

I hope Dave stays.It does worry me that they seem to have been mad at him far more than happy with him for the past few weeks.  Stop being stupid Dave.  You have a job a lot of people would kill for.  Get your shit together bro.

Fez was just not feeling well every day for the last few months,so that Dave took up some of the slack and yes gave Fez some slack and cut him some slack.So Dave was helping TEAM FEZ.  Now that Fez is somewhat in better spirits from the psychological relief of his new lease on life,then Dave gets bashed.

Wow, ESD isn't even fired yet and people are jumping ship, who would have guessed it?I like the suggestion of Bill the Intern, he would be fabulous. Actually the Bum that Oand A interview on the walk over everyday would be better than Dave, almost anyone would. The show has started to revolve around Dave way to much and unfortunately he seems to be getting more comfortable babbling on air for minutes at a time even talking over Fez and Ron which is unforgivable.

mrlithic

06-15-2006, 12:41 AM

Bill the intern would be good for production. Bronx Johnny seems well loved. I have never been a Dave-hater. Sometimes he is annoying and he seems to be more so when he is under pressure.  Does R&F need another "personality" on board? Instead, maybe they should get some good people to support them.

I thought yesterdays show was great and didn't realize till afterwards that Dave wasn't on it at all. Fez seems to be back to his old self and participating more so maybe now if they feel the need to bring Dave out they could do it once or twice a week in small doses. Although I though that story about the homeless guys stealing his Coke was hillarious.

It seems like there's a list of things Dave's not supposed to do. I imagine he got drunk, hijacked crankcase for a little while before Mikey D. showed up and then fell asleep with an intern on a listener's couch.

...he got drunk, hijacked crankcase for a little while before Mikey D. showed up and then fell asleep with an intern on a listener's couch. Ha!  That was funny.  Very funny.  I'll miss the puppet bits, "so bad they were good" cubed.  I was one of the posters who Dave PM'd after a negative take, and I wrote back and told him to ignore asses like me and focus on the show - wish he had done that instead of trying to be the red-headed big shot, or whatever it was that got him on Ron's bad side so bad.

I also think "gossip" must have been involved. That's another thing he's been called out on. If you tell Dave not to sit down and put his feet on the table, that's exactly what he does.  But then he has the best crazy reason for doing it - and the reason will almost make sense.  Until you realize it utterly does not.  And that's why I like Dave.  He's his own Earth Two.

Dave's a drummer, what do you expect. They are ALL mouth breathing, knuckle dragging retards anyway.  And as far as Ron and Fez NEEDING Dave? I've listended to these 2 guys in some form or another since 1989 and MOST of that time, probably 99% of it is sans Dave and it was fucking funny. I think they can do what most bands do when thier lame drummer thinks he's too big for the band anymore, get a new one in 2 minutes that's probably better.

I have never posted here before, I am sad that my first post has to be about ESD. I think the thing I never understood was why Dave didn't take his job more seriously. I mean there are tons of people with his degree that would kill to have the job he has/ or had. Getting drunk on the job during an event he was supposed to be producing is unacceptable. Needing listeners to get you home after a night of binge drinking is so uncool. I also feel bad that it seems like he doesn't have friends of his own. I mean he shouldn't have to have listeners or interns involved in his life outside of work. The fact that he makes drunken phone calls to all of his coworkers because he is lonely or bored is kinda sad. I do love the show though. Ron and Fez are amazing. They make me laugh more then any radio show has. I look forward to the show everyday and to be honest Earl sets the tone for my day with his music choices.

If the interns want to associate with Dave outside the show then that's their choice. Tell him to go home to his wife and shut up.Let the kid have some fun. Ron has his tongue up BJ's ass all day and the what the hell does BJ bring to the show besides a bad impression of some LA gang member.Ron is a hilarious radio personality, but he needs to lay off Dave.

I hate to say it but you people who really give dave a hard time really need to give it a rest, and take Dave for what he is, a funny idiot. As stupid as he is and as much as you want to hate him, he really is a funny guy. I dont know how many of you remember the early O&A WNEW days but they had an intern that reminds me very much of Dave, just an idiot but some how came up with great funny radio. All during todays show even thought it was Dave Free thursday, I was waiting for a stupid dave comment, even Ronnie said it when they were talking about westerns because dave would of had some stupid comment that would have taken them on a tangent that ended up in Ron busting on him.Ok for all of you who hate when Dave brings in the puppets, think about how funny he was when he would join Paul-O for his movie reviews, and just it would be a tag-team on ripping on Paul-O.  SAVE ESD!!!

He is paid a paycheck he is responsible for a lot of things. Also I think it would be good for Ron and Fex to know the people they have chosen to work with can control themselves. I might be a wet blanket but Ron agreed with what I am saying because after this all came out he told Dave to not to party with interns and listeners anymore.

I suppose we could speculate all we want as to what Dave did that warranted a suspension, but I'm going to wait to hear the "official" explanation.  It's obvious Ron and Fez both think highly of him and they must see something in him that makes them want to see him succeed.  Everyone is also well aware that East Side hasn't learned to think before he speaks (or acts) and this has led to problems before but it's also a great source of entertainment.  I'd like to think ESD will learn a lesson from this suspension but I doubt it, and besides, what fun would that be?

I think this whole mess is sordid, and I find it really kind of offensive that people are generating this much shit over it, and taking so much schadenfreude from it. I even thought for a split second that this supposed "harrassment" was some sort of plot hatched by the ESD haters, but I put those thoughts away because I don't want to give them that much credit. I am done with this whole thing.  If Dave stays, great.  If Dave leaves, it's a shame.  But I don't want to see any of you asses dancing on a grave if he's gone.

I think its is a bit selfish to want a guy to act this way for great radio's sake. He works for a company. He is paid a paycheck he is responsible for a lot of things. Also I think it would be good for Ron and Fex to know the people they have chosen to work with can control themselves. I might be a wet blanket but Ron agreed with what I am saying because after this all came out he told Dave to not to party with interns and listeners anymore.Jesus man...lighten up...you are sounding like one giant girly man...straight laced...member of the Harper Valley PTA...it's a RADIO SHOW for christ's sake...go Dave...go "Fex"

Not associating with the interns is a stupid rule? It's not associating that he was banned from doing, it was going out, getting completely smashed and making a complete ass out of himself in front of interns who he is supposed to have authority over. Not only this but I got the impression that he showed some pretty obnoxious behavior at a restaurant that is kind of friendly to the show and made it clear to everyone there that he was a part of the show. Very bad representation of the show to both the interns and the restaurant. Showed a complete lack of responsibility. Idiotic behavior for someone who turned his life around for the dream of working on the R&F Show. I don't pretend for a second that I know exactly what went on but I listen everyday and that was my interpretation, what do I know, I'm drunk.

Ron is a genius at what he does.You have to know that and trust his decision,even with limited information.It's like having a misbehaving teen going thru puberty learning to drink and drive at the same time who puts a nice dent in the front fender and wets himself on the front seat.It's not a pleasant job being a parent.It's not fun when you have to pull rank and correct the abuses.   It's like Fez isn't going to FREAK OUT (and why should he threaten his fragile health by beating Dave with his bamboo cane like an old lady accosted for her pocket-book?)  It's destructive behavior like Fat Baby back in DC...Does that MEAN Perry has to WRITE a song for ANYTHING to get done?      ****************Watch what happens with LOOSE CHANGE,the 911 documentary***************

I like Dave; he is a good person.  However, it is never a good idea to read another person's mail under any circumstance!  It doesn't matter if his intentions were sincere and good; it is still a gross invasion of privacy.  Not to mention printing out the email, which was really nervey of him.  I don't even like anyone picking up my newspaper, let alone my mail, without my approvalI am not sure what the exact thing was that he did to get into trouble, and it's too bad.  He had an awesome opportunity that any other person would kill to have, and he made a mistake and hurt that chance.  But there are privacy issues, and deffinitely goes against company policy to invade another employee's space the way he did, and of course, the trust factor is lost in the process.  I hope he learns his lesson during his suspension and I hope he gets another chance to change any behavior not appropriate to the work environmentI say, give Dave another chance.

Listen to O&A and every day they talk about how their glorified interns (ahem, Associate Producers) Than, Danny, Travis, etc. go into each other's email acounts (when left on) and send out letters representing themselves as that person. I'm not saying that Earl and Ron shouldn't be pissed - they should - but why the fuck is it a big joke on O&A but all of the sudden when Dave does it, it's a huge "corporate problem." If Wiki was pissed about Dave, why doesn't he say shit about it in the other case? I don't see a huge difference other than that Earl isn't spineless and stood up for himself.As to Dave's suspension, I think he's great for the show but has made some (actually quite a few recently) mistakes but I hope that he'll learn a lesson and come back from his suspension. I haven't heard R&F sound as good since they the NEW show was syndicated to overnights in DC. Dave is an integral part of that and I hope he's not out for good.

WHat seems to be missed in most of the conversations about our friend Dave is that people who are not voicing support for him aren't usually doing so because he has no talent or sense of comedy, it's more that he has the job of a lifetime and is blowing it up. If I was supporting Dave I would feel betrayed at this point as he has let his fans down, the listeners down, and most of all his own self down. Dave is one of the most obvious alcoholics I have ever seen. He needs to get help with this and try to get his life back on track. I thought getting the gig would help Dave focus himself a little more and prioritize his life in a meaningful way. Instead the opposite has happened, Dave took his good fortune and used it as an excuse to get wasted even more. I sincerely hope Dave can get his life back together and more importantly quit detracting from the show, if not then Ron and Fez should taker a long hard look at replacing Dave with a more qualified person. I got XM radio strictly for ROn and Fez. I currently hold down three subs, and I am thinking about getting more. However if ESD is part of the long term plan of this show I am not sure if made the right choice. Dave, who only has a few bright spots, is reducing the quality of the show and taking away from it's energy. I can't help but think there will be some dark ending to the ESD saga.

It's pretty simple,like flat top.Dave,like a puppy shit on the carpet,and Ron has to rub his nose in it with rolled up newspaper over the snout to train him not to "repeat performance". It's avoidance training. There's carpet wetness,now here's the cure....or at least the short term remedy.Mo satisfaction,less shit traction.

Didn't anyone catch what Ron said on Friday?  He said what ESD did, he just didn't say who he did it to.  Seems East Side used the caller ID as the phone screener to get someone's phone number.  I guess that's bad enough, but then this strange "Harassment" angle comes in.

Yes, it's wrong, but, imagine the suprise of the ESD hater, when he picks up the phone to find out it's ESD himself, calling him to say what he thinks of him. Probably a lot of radio guys have wanted to do this over the years, but ESD is insane enough to actually do it.

I can't imagine Dave would be so stupid as to get drunk and call back a caller who was fucking with him on the show and harass them. Isn't that one of the first rules of radio?My guess is he got a personal number he should not have access to of either a 'friend of the show' or a guest and called them and when the person asked how he got the number and he said the station caller ID, they reported it to Earl and Ron. If that's true, it's pretty bad and grounds for being fired, I think. Reading and printing out Earl's e-mail was already grounds for it. If that was anyone else who worked there, besides Earl, be it with the R&F show or O&A he would have been fired already a la Harry for invasion of privacy, but Earl's just a really nice guy. I get what Dave brings to the show, but I think some of you guys overvalue his contribution because most of us draw an immediate comparison between Dave and Harry and in that race, there's no contest; Dave wins hands down. But if he ends up getting fired, I'm sure they could find a lot of people to fill that role. I also think Bill the Intern would be a good choice, because he's got a decent track record of producing bits.

from the little i heard on the show there has to be some 'guidelines' and rules just like at any place of business and if dave was harrassing a 'caller' then he's got to pay for his actions. one thing that i respect about dave is he speaks his mind whereas Earl needs to get a set of his own balls. it's at times disgraceful the way he bows down or breaks under some 'invisible' pressure of answering a question that ron throws him...

I've basically ignored all the bullshit that has been generated on this board about Dave since he started working for Ron and Fez.  You would think that we would support and be proud of him and instead, it seems that there are many just waiting for him to fail.  It's fucking pathetic.Dave's a maniac, an ass, and an idiot but one of THE most stand up genuine guys I've ever met.  He's not a fucking alcoholic.  He's a young guy that goes out and gets trashed on weekends.  He's fucking allowed. He has never put on an act or pretended to be what he was not.  To pick apart every contribution he's made to the show is ridiculous because guess what EVERYTHING ON THE SHOW IS AN EXAGERATION.  It's a spin off reality.I truly hope he's afforded the opportunity to continue to work there.  I don't see anyone jumping down Earl's throat for being an absolute fucking bore on air (I love him but jesus christ he sucks the life out of the show on air and he knows it).  Dave comes in everyday willing to participate and he just gets shit on.  Whatever the situation may be, I'll bet Dave is responsible and not in a malicious way.  He really doesn't know better and probably has to learn.    It would truly suck that such a fucking nice guy would have to learn how fucking shitty people are by getting his dream taken from him, while assholes on this board and others gloat.

I don't think anyone gets it.  It really isn't anybody's business what Dave did or if he does or doesn't get fired.  However, to say that Dave should keep his job is ridiculous.  If he harassed  a caller that gave him a hard time we all know he has to go.  Every single one of you on this message board knows if you called a customer or patient or whatever that you did not like you'd be fired.  You can't deny that.  I have no problem with Dave at all honestly.  I'm indifferent to him.  Sometimes he's terrible sometimes he's great.  To say nobody jumps down Earl's throat for being boring is irrelevant.  He's not threatening people and then calling the police on Mikey D for pretty much doing the exact same thing.  Except maybe Mikey D was a little more manly about it and went to Dave's house in person.  Both incidents are ridiculous and immature.  Which reminds me.  Didn't Dave say that him calling Mikey D a Nazi was a bit?  Didn't he get into with Bronx Johnny like two weeks ago about something and told him not to get upset because it was a bit?  So why would he get upset about a caller?  I don't want Dave or anyone else to lose their job but use common sense.  Does he get a free pass for everything?

If dave was making phone calls, harrassing someone, that's a pretty big deal.  That can be considered aggravated harassment.  Anyway, i'm rooting for dave, because he's the only funny sidekick they have.

You are an idiot.  It's nobody's busniess what Dave did?  Then don't talk about it on two straight XM shows.  Then it becomes people's busniess when its part of the show.

If Dave were here, I'd say group hug, but since he's not, I give him a big thumbs up.  <img width="15" height="15" border="0" src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/images/topicicons/thumbsup.gif" />

Silera never said it would be the messageboard's fault if Dave lost his job, Moe.  She said it would be terrible if he had to learn how shitty people could be if they celebrated as he lost his dream job.   The last thing in the world I want to see is East Side get canned.  If he does, I'll wish him well in his future ventures but I'd never tear into him viciously or maliciously like some of the members here do.   Hell, I like the guy personally, and I think he's brought a ton of energy to the show.

I don't know if this was pointed out already, but I think Dave was in the studio on Friday. At the beginning of the Alison Bailes segment, you can hear Ron yell for Dave to come in the room and turn her headphones on for her (unless another Dave I don't know about works for R&F).They're probably keeping him off air until it gets settled. This is probably good news for Dave. If XM were going to outright fire him, they'd probably have sent him home indefinitely, before handing down final judgment. That's how these corporations usually work do it.

Yest ESD is an idiot, but happens to bring a lot of good bits on the air. Also his chemistry w/ Ron, is hilarious. Would hate to see ESD go.
