[RAAMONE]

that guy sucked last time he was on

[The Nature Boy]

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZman?

[HBox]

Ugh.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Step 1 Give Ronnie Lots of Cigars

Step 2 Leave Studio

Step 3 Receive Off Air Thank you from Ron

[Mafialife Chris]

A few of you guys are truly jerkoffs sometimes. This guy was nice enough to interview Ron for that winter cigar magazine, and they both became pretty cool buddays from what i learned.

All i can say is WOW.

I can see how you'd sympathize with someone who is radio cancer.

I can see how you'd sympathize with someone who is radio cancer.

I appreciate true fans and those who genuinly care about The Show, especially Ronnie B.
In general, when i feel someone had a bad day on air or just doesnt do well, i bite my tongue. I'm not much the type of person to type negative press on a board where others may be influenced.

In this case i actually do enjoy cigar talk, especially from Tommy since he knows his stuff. I am a cigar lover. Although if i didnt, i'd just keep my mouth shut. My upbringing taught me that if i didnt have anything nice to say, to keep my mouth shut.

Not my style budday, sorry. But please continue to be yourself, God Bless.

Regards,

MLC

[Mafialife Chris]

BTW, that hurt!! meanie.

Well, aren't you trying to influence others by pumping up his appearances?

So no one here is allowed to comment on the fact that they thought he was boring last time?

[Mafialife Chris]

Well, aren't you trying to influence others by pumping up his appearances?

Boon, your sorta making my point. All these boards are natural influences regardless, and i would personally rather bite my tongue then to write something negative about someone who helps the show in a sponsored way, or just by putting energy and love in thier direction. And i dont mean "lie" about someone, i just simply mean stay quite "if" i dont like them. I make sure to use constructive crit whenever i'm dissapointed if i have to reply, as to ensure that anyone reading is influenced as little as possible. At least thats what i try to do.

So no one here is allowed to comment on the fact that they thought he was boring last time?

All i was saying is that "some" posters are real asses sometimes, and then posted my point on things. I was not trying to stop anyone from flaming. Shitting on someone can't be misconstrued brother, its always gonna be just that , shitting on someone. And i think it's wrong. This happens on all boards, and i will always speak my mind when i see it being done, even if it gets me more flaming. So be it. Just not my style.

Everyone has thier own style. I think i still said it best when i said " if you dont have nothing nice to say, its best you bite your tongue". If not, i reserve the right to call you an asshole, the same way you reserve the right to say your negative comment.

It's discouraging to read and hear and he doesnt deserve the bad press. Noone does, when they "try" and help the show. Just my 2 cents.

Flame on! lol

You act as though the show your refer to in this very post "bite their collective toungues" with bad guests, bad crew and hell even fans. If they only kissed ass all day then we'd call them Don and Mike and move on to another show. And aren't you breaking your own rule of life by reserving the right to "call you an asshole" bc you disagree? We all have our opinions, so what?

Plus, to say you usually have ulterior motives is one hell of an understatement! I like you Chris, but you're way off point here calling these guys out for their respective opinions on guests. Hell, even Ronnie himself messed with Z a few times about being boring. So what? Calling out Hbox, Boonie, Ramone and Hippo for an honest opinion is insane. These are some loyal, longtime/hardcore fans to say the least.

[BoondockSaint]

I was going to defend myself with some nasty shit but Spoon said what I was going to say much nicer.

Bang.

First time for everything right!

spoon for office? Yah, not realistic I know.

You're in office? Bang! Fake mafia got you. Now listen to Ron try to drag a good interview out of somebody.

[Gvac]

Good Christ.

Thanks for the warning.

That guy tries WAAAAAY too hard.

[sailor]

i enjoyed his appearance a lot more than many of the indie directors they have on. he wasn't nearly as bad as people are making out.

[OneEyeJack]

Perhaps Ronnie just ran out of cigars and needs to restock.....

[tommyzman]

I am feelin' the love, buddays.

Hey guys, I understand that some of you may not dig cigars so you thought that was boring. I'm cool with that. I think "radio cancer" is a little rough, but hey, I can take it.

I respect what guys have to say, especially when they have 7, 8, and 11,000 posts. You guys are long time-hard core fans who feel you are protecting the integrity of the show. I have the EXACT same kind of fans on my site as you guys and THAT I appreciate a hell of a lot.

It's a fact - Ron LOVES cigars. It's a HUGE passion of his. I have been a fan of the show for ages and decided to pitch the editor of Cigar Magazine to do an article on Ronnie. The reason is that I feel that Ron is such a massively underated talent and Cigar mag has a quater million reader base that I knew would love him. So, the bottom line is that my motive was to really spread the word about Ron (and Fez) to a whole new audience that I know would become his fans.

Now, am I really such a bad guy for doing that?

Ron and I have become pretty good friends in the last few months and I have never met a cooler, more sincere guy who happens to be the funniest motherfucker there is.

Listen guys, I have a cigar gig and that's Ron's love, so maybe you can cut me a little slack. If Ron thought I was boring he wouldn't have me on, I'm pretty sure of that. I'm a big R&F fan and I think YOU GUYS are probably the best fucking fans in the world. I have NEVER seen more loyal people in my life.

Hey, just remember, I do this stuff for a living and when I'm on the show it helps feed the wife and kids. I will give you brothers a nice shout out today if I can.

Later Buddays,
Tommy Z aka The Zman

I think this is more a rift bt some members and a little rip from some hardcores. No biggie, bc you can't please everyone so just be yourself. I'm a mid-level cigar man myself (meaning I usually only smoke them on vacations and other special occassions like golfing or poker) so I always enjoy the talk, but also can see where others who aren't into it would find it boring. I hate NBA talk on sports radio but it doesn't mean the guys who like it are idiots. Just roll with it, people just like to put their ideas and feelings out there and I can't blame them.

[tommyzman]

I can get you a job in constrution .

No thanks bro, I'd nail gun my fucking hand to my asshole right out of the box.

[tommyzman]

cigar talk...radio cancer...get it....ha

Can't believe that went over my Polak head. Now THAT's pretty damned funny.

[tommyzman]

Just roll with it, people just like to put their ideas and feelings out there and I can't blame them.

Like I said, Spoon, you guys are the most devoted fans I've ever seen. I gotta respect guys with 11,000 posts. I'd like to make this place home, as well.

[Chip196]

Are we not allowed to say anything negative anymore? And it goes beyond just that the topic isn't your thing either ... I love the interviews with Chef's / Food Network personalities, but Alton Brown was bad on the air ... so much so that Ron has mentioned how bad he was on air. Is Ron calling Alton a dick any different than someone here saying they're not in to Tommy? Sometimes it just isn't your thing and that doesn't make you an asshole for criticizing.

[mikeyboy]

Welcome to the board, Tommy. If some people don't like the cigar talk, so be it. One of the reasons I like the show so much is that it can go anywhere at any time. You really never know what direction it will go in. I don't think everyone is into all of the topics and guests on the show, but we still love the fact that the show is free and open enough to cover all of those areas. Some people weren't into the interview with indie-director John Sayles yesterday, while others were fascinated. Likewise, some people turn the dial when Dave starts screaming for one reason or another, while others think that's a highlight of the show. If there's a topic or guest that I'm not into, I usually am not one to publicly criticize, but that's my personality rather than being some kind of message board code/moral guideline. It is a message board, and people will discuss whether they like it or not. I do feel that you're getting it a little worse than you would otherwise because of carryover from some bad blood between ML Chris and a portion of this board, so take that for what it's worth. Ultimately, don't take it to heart what a few people on a message board think. The show is so varied that you can't please anyone all the time. If there are a few vocal people not digging the segment, there is definitely a less vocal audience out there who did.

[tommyzman]

Thanx Mikey.

The guys here are great. Very passionate. I'm really just trying to let the guys know that I too love R&F and through my job I've promoted Ronnie to a new audience.

Thanx very much for the Welcome.

I enjoyed your visit last time and look forward to todays spot
Get to work on a nice avatar and a sig pic already.
:wink:

[MikeB]

you guys are too negative.

Zman fan since day one!!

[The Nature Boy]

Zman, I did find your spot boring at times, but if you are interested in some more indepth critique, I'm happy to offer it.

I personally didn't mind the cigar talk. I actually found it interesting as an occasional smoker, and I made a trip to the JR in East Hanover or wherever that joint is on Route 10 after your spot. Good stuff there. I don't know if you could sustain consistent appearances talking cigars, but I'm open to most places this show goes.

Where my interest waned was in the lifestyle talk, where to borrow a phrase from elsewhere in the thread, it came across as you trying too hard. Its a fine line to fine tune this, I'm sure your personality carried you to where you are, and you are who you are to an extent in life. If you had a little more precision in your statements rather than just carpet bombing lifestyle information, it might be more effective.

Now, bring on the inevitable "who the hell are you some guy on a message board" schitck, which is fine and valid. You have no reason to take our feedback or change a thing.

I did respect your decision to post and you conducted yourself like a gentleman here, which I appreciate, so I figured I'd offer some feedback other than "you were boring" or "you suck". Take it for what you will and what its worth.

Break a leg today!

There should be zero bad blood, there is none on my end. This bad blood seems to be only happening in 1 direction MB. On my end, i'm just waiting patiently for it to end :)

And for the record, i was only defending Tommy because he emailed asking me to post his intro on all boards, and when he saw this board's replies he was pissed in an email to me. We went back and forth via email a few times and he was wondering why people would do it in a way where it wasnt just a few digs. I was helping him understand as well as you just did.

I "get " the whole show. I know they can go either way, and i was only making a point to give my input on how i handle bad press on message boards. I did not dissrespect anyone, nor try to stop them from flaming. I have always made it clear how much this message board's fandom mean to me, and how it is the board of the show.

I think it's also time to admit that the cigar reference went over my head as well, and i am sorry if you guys assumed i was claiming you werent show fans. In no way do i assume your not good fans, in fact i idolize many of you, even the few assholes:).

I think it's real scumbag move to constantly claim and post that i have a hidden agenda, or any ulterior motive. I just want you few sceptics to know that i am always 100% honest about when i am doing something as a business sponsorship for plugs, and when i am giving from the heart to the fans and community for the love of the show and it's fandom. There is NEVER a hidden agenda. Same like Tommy, i am not only here as a fan and board member, i am here as a sponsor with a business that feeds my family as well. Frenchy and the baby included.

Let's end this fued please. I love you guys.

PS: I also defended Zman because the comments hit me close to home, i also stink on air sometimes, lol

[Chip196]

I was fine with the Z man interview, and I don't have any bad blood with you Chris ... but I do have to disagree with you on this ... 4 people commented about the Z-man's previous interview, and none of the comments were personal, harsh, attacked his family or anything stupid like that, and you came back calling them Jerkoffs.

"that guy sucked last time he was on"

"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZman"

"Ugh"

"Step1: Give Ron lots of Cigars
Step2: Leave Studio
Step3: Receive Off Air thank you from Ron"

are those really Jerkoff comments? Or some fans who post on a board expressing their opinion? In an earlier post I mentioned that I didn't like the Alton Brown interview and if I heard he was coming back in, I wouldn't be all that excited for it ... and I love his shows. Do you think that there should never be a negative comment about anyone on the air? I am just curious if you really think these comments were that harsh?

[IamPixie]

Ugh.

yea...I don't care for him.

[Mafialife Chris]

I did answer that a few times. No, i dont think there should be no neg comments. I was just defended a friend who i got close with that expressed that he was upset with the comments.

I guess i over reacted, and once i got the cigar/cancer joke myself and read some responces, i realized it myself. Sorry buddays.

We really all have our own way of expressing we arent happy, or we dont like something. I just choose to bite my tongue usually as apposed to post it on a board. I do like fun flaming though :)

so basically you onlydecidided to come back here and defend him after he complained to you in several emails that 4 people didnt think he was good on the air...i'm sure he is a great guy...just thought he wasnt great radio.

[Mafialife Chris]

No, since every god damn word is being picked apart, to be more precise it was 1 of the few reasons i defended him. I also mentioned a few other reasons. I think both sides are covered here.

Great job on the show Zman, the segment turned out fun and enjoyable to listen to.

CYA buddays.

[Don Stugots]

i enjoy ZMAN and the cigar talk.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

i enjoy ZMAN and the cigar talk.

how many cigars were given to you to say that

[Don Stugots]

how many cigars were given to you to say that

ZERO, so far and my humidors are empty.

Also, Christopher Robbins, you stink on air SOMETIMES? Way to pad your numbers.

[ralphbxny]

Tommy Z dont read this thread...or the show thread that says I think you stink either. These boards are filled with opinionated asses who tell you how they feel.

[Mafialife Chris]

Christopher Robbins never stinks on air :)

[Don Stugots]

Christopher Robbins never stinks on air :)

He smells like his balls.

ZMAN is giving out cigars? PRICK! where is mine?

[Doogie]

Can we play a drinking game for everytime MLC writes "Bite my tongue." If so then there would be a lot of fucked up mother fuckers reading your first few posts regarding this guest.

[Don Stugots]

Bite your tongue!

[Mafialife Chris]

Can we play a drinking game for everytime MLC writes "Bite my tongue." If so then there would be a lot of fucked up mother fuckers reading your first few posts regarding this guest.

Cool game! We should also everytime a new reply from a different person asked the same question of " so we cant say anything negative about something? " even though it was answered already. That would double our fucked-upness and be so rad.

[Mafialife Chris]

Bite your tongue!

:drunk::drunk::drunk:

[Doogie]

That would double our fucked-upness and be so rad.

Who says 'rad' anymore?? Last time I heard that was some horrible BMX movie from the late 1980's.

[Chigworthy]

What the f?

[Don Stugots]

Bite your tongue.

[Marc with a c]

Who says 'rad' anymore?? Last time I heard that was some horrible BMX movie from the late 1980's.

i tried bringing back 'rad', but some black girl told me i was being square.

Bite your tongue.

I just did.

You better pay my hospital bills.

[Chigworthy]

Bite your tongue.

Bow your head.

[AnnoyedGrunt]

Say what you want about the ZMan, but nobody can deny that his impression of Fez is dead on.

[ToLEEdo]

To be honest I only heard the first time Zman was on. I wasn't a huge fan, but also I knew it was his first time on with the buddays, let him get acclimated.

But when I saw that he posted not once but continued to post here, I was really impressed. This shows he really cares about his performance and what RnF fans think of it. I have a lot of respect for Zman because of this.

[IamPixie]

he wasn't so bad today.

[derrickgott007]

he wasn't so bad today.

Oh yes he was.... He seems like he tries to hard to be accepted. He needs to just relax and just be himself. If the buddys are going to like him its because of HIM, not what he brings. You can hear him reaching and reaching and trying too hard.

[Don Stugots]

Bow your head.

What a pal.

[tommyzman]

Thanx man. And my Marv Albert is a fucking killer, I don't care what those doofus's said. Actually Fez REALLY made me laugh when he said he thought my Freddie Mercury was Judy Garland. I was crying I was laughing so hard.

[ronreddog]

Zman, you rule budday! Great appearance today, wish there was more cigar talk though.

[tommyzman]

That is a pretty nice thing to say, bro.

And "acclimated" is the right word. For those who think I'm trying "too" hard, you have NO IDEA what it's like in that studio. It is a rapid fire, free-for-all zoo and it's hard to even get your words in. Ron, Dave, and Fez have this uncanny timing with one another - there's an unbelievable rhythm going on in that room and even with a second time in there, I was still learning their pace. They are consummate professionals and if you don't keep up with them in there you'll die.

To the guys who are critical of me - if any of you ever get a chance to be in that room behind that mic, you'll know what I mean. I'm a comedic writer and admittedly haven't been on the air a lot. But Ronnie loves cigars, is very happy with the article I wrote about him, and we have become friends. He has returned the favor by having me on the air and I'm pretty grateful.

And I'll say again that I am so fucking impressed with how incredible and passionate you guys are. Just gimme a chance to fit in because I love that friggin show.

Thanx Guys,
Zman

[tommyzman]

Zman, you rule budday! Great appearance today, wish there was more cigar talk though.


Me too. There were a friggin TON of callers wanting to talk cigars but they wanted to do the impressions thing. Hey, I can't complain.

But Ronnie loves cigars, is very happy with the article I wrote about him, and we have become friends. He has returned the favor by having me on the air and I'm pretty grateful.

And I'll say again that I am so fucking impressed with how incredible and passionate you guys are. Just gimme a chance to fit in because I love that friggin show.

Thanx Guys,
Zman

Love your passion Zman, but many of us HAVE been in the studio with Ron and Fez. Some of us for 6 or 7 years.

Maybe your over enthusiasm comes over as "trying too hard" as I've accused you of doing, but we're such fanatical fans that we get upset with anyone who talks over Ron or Fez or tries to dominate the conversation.

I'm glad you're a fan, though.

[Kilgores Feet]

Also: those impressions sucked.

[Bossanova]

Good Christ.

Thanks for the warning.

That guy tries WAAAAAY too hard.

Thank you for saving me time to post that

[The Nature Boy]

Z, how can you tap on the impressions? Weak.

In the words of a great man:
That don't make me a bad person.

And if you thought Dave's were good,
you've been sniffin' some bad poontang
my friends.

BTW, Ron gave me highest marks on
Marv Albert, Gilbert Gottfried, and
Reverend Jim - so give him shit, not me.

No Daves were equally awful, but you went from Bad Impression Guy to Won't Go With the Bit Guy, the former far more endearing than the latter.

[TrevorDodds]

first of all i don't care what any of you say about davey, but he is a funny fucker and had me laughing my ass off today. as far a the zman, take it easy on him. i doubt that many of you, myself included, could go on the show and hang with ronnie b and the boys and not sound like an ass.

You're right. That's why we don't go and waste everybody's time.

[tommyzman]

I think the idea between Dave and I was more of who could suck the most and keep their composure. He is a veteran on that show and I didn't stand a chance - especially when Fez said I sounded like Judy Garland (THAT was hysterical.)

The biggest problem was that the girls are to young and didn't know who any of the remaining impressions on my list were. If they didn't know Reverend Jim from Taxi, they sure as hell didn't know Fred Sanford and Cheech and Chong, etc.

But you're right, NB, I should have hung in to finish - But Dave was on a roll so I let him go with it.

But, my Marv Albert is top-shelf so don't gimme crap on that one!

[tommyzman]

You're right. That's why we don't go and waste everybody's time.

Jesus Christ Bro, you sound like my wife in the fucking sack.

[Hottub]

Now THAT was funny!:clap:

[ralphbxny]

That is a pretty nice thing to say, bro.

And "acclimated" is the right word. For those who think I'm trying "too" hard, you have NO IDEA what it's like in that studio. It is a rapid fire, free-for-all zoo and it's hard to even get your words in. Ron, Dave, and Fez have this uncanny timing with one another - there's an unbelievable rhythm going on in that room and even with a second time in there, I was still learning their pace. They are consummate professionals and if you don't keep up with them in there you'll die.

I have to clarify my you stink commet. Your Impressions stink...except for the ones everyone does. When you speak cigars...your great. Your blog is awesome!

I dont know who said it but its so true...when you talk over and step on Ron or Fez it annoys us. Not that what we think matters. Just be yourself and keep up the cigar talk. And most importantly dont take what anyone here says seriously.

[DonInNC]

Can't believe that went over my Polak head. Now THAT's pretty damned funny.

Maybe you just need a new humordor.

Thanx for the clarification. And thanx for the comment on the blog. Now you know the blog is humorous - and you know I'm a comedic writer - but it seems like I'm perceiving the message from a lot of the guys here is "Don't try to be funny on the show, that's R&F's job."


But I'm a humorist in my writing - that's what I do.

No? Yes? Huh?:blink:

Thanx Ralphy,
Zman

I thought Rons Fez impression was spot on.
Tommy I look forward to your next visit.
Ignore the haters 86 more posts and you'll be a Dot Commando

[RAAMONE]

i was just reading all these posts and i realized something...i still dont take back the fact that you suck on the radio...but i get it, i'd be nervous too so i give you props for trying to be funny or whatever...but what really bothers me is that you refer to yourself as "the Zman"...so fuckin stupid

[tommyzman]

...but what really bothers me is that you refer to yourself as "the Zman"...so fuckin stupid

I wanted the Hulkster or the Rock, but they were taken.

Actually Raamone, Zman is my real birth name on the certificate. Tommy Zarzecki is a nickname I picked up somewhere along the way.

I say try to be funny and be willing to go in the barrel. Ron's said before either tell a joke or be the joke. You're entertaining on the show, don't let the messageboard get in your head.

[drjoek]

At 2:40 yesterday Ronnie said "What theres only 5 minutes left to go in the show". So obviously they were all having a great time. Thats good enough for me
Come back any time

[MadMatt]

Jesus Christ Bro, you sound like my wife in the fucking sack.

Well done! :clap:

You are a really good sport Zman, and you seem to be a great fan as well.

Don't take the criticism personally - your kind of dealing with a tough crowd around here.

Also, thanks for taking care of Ron! I have been to the JR Outlet in Statesville, NC many times and they have some GREAT cigars there. I have been really impressed with the JR versions of popular cigars - I think you brought the Monte Cristo analog for Ron yesterday.

Great place with super selection and pricing - RF.neters should check out the online store if you get a chance.

[MikeB]

Tommy Z. is a cool guy, and he is taking his lumps like a man. He is a great cigar aficionado, and I respect him for that. How many of us can hang with Ronnie and smoke cigars and interview him?

BTW, I would love a cigar night, that would be awesome!

[HBox]

Here's an honest suggestion: Have some thicker skin. There have been better guests than you who have gotten more and worse things written about them on this board. You shouldn't get bent out of shape because of four fairly middling negative comments. You could genuinely kill on the show and there would still be people saying negative things about you on the board. You can't satisfy everyone, even Ron and Fez can't do that.

Now, if you want send to ME some free stuff, you'd be totally awesome and anyone who says different is a negative child raping cock sucker.

Was it kind of preplanned that Dave's way worse impressions got more laughs and more points to drive the cigar guy crazy? Or maybe it was just more of a visual thing.

To me, every Dave impression sounds like Dave. But he is a pretty funny bastid and you have to see the faces he makes. That's what was cracking the girls up. He is a great guy.

Because Stugots spoke for him. Radio poison!

All I had left were impressions of stuff from the 70's and the girls looked at my list and had absolutely NO IDEA who they were. I'm talking like Fred Sanford, Cheech and Chong, etc. So I just told Dave to run with it.

You just have to see that the bit developed into what it did which made it histerical. I know you have pride in what you do, but you have to see where the bit was going which made it alot funnier then just an impression contest.

Just let Ron and Fez do what they do and roll with the punches. They arent malicious, they just know how to do radio. So your bit was fantastic, just next time thicken your skin and let the magic happen. You did great.

You are 1000% correct in your assessment, bro. Ronnie and I hung for a few hours afterwards and he told me that the humor was coming from the fact that I was getting ripped off in the voting and that the better guy was actually getting crushed. He was disappointed that I gave up - as was everyone else. I've actually won 2 impression contests in bars with my Marv. I told Ron that what happened was that my ego (pride) took over and I was swimming up stream instead of going with the flow.

Thanx for some VERY nice words. Being on R&F is HUGE for my writing career. After my first appearance the hits on the blog quadruppled and that won me big kudos at JR.
