<h3 class="bioName"><a href="http://www.xmradio.com/onxm/channelbio.xmc?ch=202" target="_self">Here are the bios for Ron & Fez being run by XM.</a>  I don't know who put them together, but they didn't do a very good job.</h3><h3 class="bioName"><img src="http://www.xmradio.com/images/channels/hosts/ron.jpg" border="0" />Ron Bennington</h3>On - Air Personality Ron began his career as a stand-up comic, then, in 1988, Ron teamed up with Ron Diaz, to form the Ron and Ron show with their sidekick, Fez Marie Whatley. [More or less okay so far, although I think they have the year wrong] The show was a hit from its beginning till its demise in 1997. [okay]  Soon after the fallout, [fallout!?! what fallout?  You just said the show ended, you didn't say anything about a fallout.  Okay, yes, those who have done some internet searches on the Ron & Ron Show know that there may have been some fallout with Ron Diaz which lead to his departure, but why bring up a fallout without explanation?  Anyway, technically the show did continue for a time after Ron Diaz left with another Ron] Ron Bennington and his former sidekick, Fez Whatley, were hired by Infinity Broadcasting to host a late night show based around the internet. [okay, that gets us to 2000.  Did anything happen over the next 5 years?  I understand that this bio was probably shortened to hell, but it makes it sound like they did an internet talk show for 5 years before being picked up by XM] <h3 class="bioName"><img height="90" src="http://www.xmradio.com/images/channels/hosts/fez.jpg" width="131" border="0" />Fez Marie Whatley</h3>On - Air Personality Originally a sidekick and producer on the Ron and Ron show, Fez became a co-host during the move to WNEW. [Whoa.  Whoa.  Whoa.  Slow down... WNEW?  Nobody said anything about WNEW.  You can't just throw it out there now and expect that everybody knows what you're talking about.  Also, this is technically incorrect as well.  Fez became a co-host when the Ron & Fez Show started broadcasting in Florida.  A little while later it was picked up by Infinity and moved to NYC]  Overall Bio Grade - C-

Do Ron and Fez have any control over what their bios say on the site? Couldn't they just have it changed to what it really is? Just curious.

My Favorite line is "Has an absolute hatred of having heart attacks." That's a good one!

Ya, nothing about Fez never getting an ounce of slack or Rons courageous move to open a Rape Prevention Prevention class.  This bio is lacking.

Love the Wiki bios, especially with the neat and clean endings of "funk out" / "junk out".  The XM bios are more of a D, since some of it is actually incorrect on the website that employs them.

Should have included in Fez's bio that he wants to be cremated and his ashes returned to Fairfax, VA upon his death in case there's any confusion on the subject.
