I dunno if it's a gag or whatever.
I love Dave and his contributions to the show.
BUT if it ever came down to Dave or Fez, loser leaves the show,
I would choose Fez every time.

not listening. what's happening?
Dave invited Fez to a last minute cook-out, and Fez thinks he did it as a joke against Fez.
The FFB said that this board was a bunch of "fezes" because we're all fags, and Fez took his side.
This junior high school girl argument is the most boring thing I've ever heard on this show. Hence my first post.

I'm sorry but dave out shines fez. He doesn't even have to try hard and everyone knows it. People feel too sympathetic for fez to say anything bad about him that's why it's towards dave. I was listening to an old bit of ron and fez and he used to be good but now woooow crazy much

I second this, Dave is funny, but he's no Fez.
Maybe Dave should invite Fez to something first and then it won't turn into this.

I love Fez, but his ongoing rants about Casey are wrong and I hope for his sake that they are a bit... if he gets himself so upset over things that never happened it would make me very sad for him.
I have never seen or heard Casey say anything bad about Fez, the tweets he referred to today were half ass read and wrongly assumed to be about him... and lot's of throwaway comments about posts and posters on .net taken out of context and twisted in a negative way get him frequently upset on air...
Please let this be a bit, and if it is, please let Casey in on the bit, cause she seems genuinely upset and hurting about these accusations.

Its time fer Dave to move on, The pot has been simmering for a very long time (2yrs) and the increased animosity Fez displays, will not stop. Fez has been threatened by Dave's on-air antics for some time and perhaps "a take over of his chair". I dont think Fez has to worry, but i agree wit Katja, it has to stop. Ron n Fez ,You lost me as a listener this morning, but i will return when some folks decide to grow up and make me laugh again. Hey Fez, you dont want Dave to leave, but you cant have yer cake and eat it too.

I did not hear the show, but if fez attacked Casey and it was not related to something Dave did, there is no way you can take his side. Attacking a non-member of the show for what seems to be out of context comments and then her not having the ability respond is shitty.

I have to say that I 100% disagree that Dave has to go part of your post, BUT I do agree that listening to Fez attack Casey today made me turn the show off. I know there are a lot of Dave haters here...I know some feel he takes away from the feel of the show. I disagree with those sentiments, and what I hear in Dave is a guy that truly does love his job. It is nice to hear someone with so much enthusiasm and passion for what he does, and you can hear that in Davey Mac. Him and Casey are great people and I find what happened today to be such a shame.
I have been a long time fan of Ron and Fez and have supported them and listened even through some bad bits, but attacking a member of a family that is not associated with the show was too much for me to take. I turned it off today. And I didnt listen to the rest of the day. Now I am not in the same boat as the person I am quoting here, but I understand their frustration.
If this is a bit with Fez not liking Casey, then ha ha the joke is on me, and I am a rube. But if it is not a bit then I feel very sad for this show that I love. I am not walking away from teh show, but today was too much for me and I just couldnt listen to it anymore. Maybe it was just a bad day...I dont know.

And it was inexcusable for Fez to take shots at Casey.

Dude, get the facts straight before you make such comment!
Dave and Casey were supposed to have a "double date" with Barb and Alix this past weekend. Dave found out another person might be coming and he did not want for that person to be the 5th wheel... so he texted a few people, Fez included, to come join them.
Since it was short notice most could not make it.
Fez took it as a joke on him.
Yes, Ron had some good points that Dave knows Fez could not have made it to NJ with little notice, yet at the same time had he not included him in the mass text, today's show would have been not one bit different!

And let me ask this, you never in your life decided to do something last minute and invite people, even though it is last minute?? Am I breaking friends balls if I do something like that?? Fuck no. Are they going to show up?? Probably not, but at least I extended the courtesy...and that is all that happened here.

The whole thing is stupid. Please drop it and go back to helping the greatest radio show out there. And dont ever listen to the caller giving you advice today. Hes the very definition of the fucking word moron.

That being said, Dave, as someone that knows Fez better than any of us, should know that and know not to push his buttons. Maybe Dave's just too stupid to realize whats he's doing. Either way I'm on Fez's side on this one.

Dave was always busting on Earl, and now that Earl is not there he is attacking Fez constantly. Dave can be funny, but he can not hold Fez's jock is any way. I would love to hear the show how it was 3 years ago, Ron and Fez with the producers in the background maybe commenting every once in awhile. Dave disrespects Fez, and says things to him that he would never dream of saying to Ron. Fez is sensitive. Dave knows that and takes advanatage of the fact.

during WNEW, the producers were as much a part of the show as they are today. 3 years ago, I feel, was the exception and the way the show is now is more the norm.

Exactly...we know your new bit is always be the guy there to defend Fez, but once you hear the audio you will have to consent that Fez was in the wrong here. The guy over-reacted to a BBQ invite. Not a shot at Fez. Not a shot at gay marriage. Not a shot at comic book movies and so forth.
Fez got pissed at an ivite to a BBQ he had no possible way to attend. See my earlier post to understand the logic of inviting people. Ok someone may not be able to make, especially if it is last minute, but at least that courtesy was extended. You dont have to be so blindly loyal to a show that no matter what the host is right. You are allowed to disagree.
Or perhaps I should put it this way:
Ihnen wird erlaubt nicht übereinzustimmen. Es ist ok, um die Person nicht sein zu müssen, die für die Show gerade wegen des Eintretens für die Show eintritt. Sie können nicht mit dem Reich manchmal übereinstimmen.

CAn't wait to listen to this tonight.
From the posts it sounds like Fez's paranoia is getting the best of him. Everything Dave does is to get him.
I think he knows he's not holding his weight on the show and see's Dave as a threat. He should. Dave sounds like he has the passion for the show that Fez used to and actually make Ron laugh. Ron used to give people shit for pointing out that Fez wasn't talking and now does it himself.
Love Fez but I think he could use some time to get his shit together. This is not the Fez of the Ron and Fez past. Sure everyone changes but his changes don't seem to be for the better.

I wish those of you who pine for the "good old days" would finally come to the realization that it will never happen. Fez is not going to invent some magic potion or find a genie in the lamp to magically make him like he was 3 (4 or 5) years ago. He's changed as a person, thus changed as a radio host. I'm not saying that is necessarily a bad thing, but we all must accept how things have changed.

You are right. Fez did not have a reason to attack Casey, unless Casey did something to him.
But fez can not be held accountable because dave is having "family problems" we all ahve fucking family problems. Dave is not special.

BTW, and I am truly not trying to take sides here, but I think it is BS that fez could not make it to daves. I am not trying to play the "guess how much money the boys make" but I am sure fez has enough money in the bank to call Enterprise and rent a car with a GPS and make the drive. I have gotten a phone call at 3pm with a work emergency and had a hotel room, flight, rental car, and car service to the airport in less then 2 hours. Either that or take a car service. If he really wanted to go, he could have made it. And even if he did not want to go home that night, grab a hotel room and I am sure casey would have driven fez to the hotel.
It is not that far from where fez lives to where daves lives. As I said, I did not hear the show, but if fez is that mad today and he cared that much, he totally could have gotten there

if there was malice in this mass text, every other person who got it should be equally as mad.
People confuse issues.
Fez vs ESD as on show personality is irrelevant to this discussion.
I listened to last thursday's show when Dave ran with the Ron and Rez show. Fez over reacted then to the teasing, feeling it was personal.
fast forward to today. For Fez to think that he was somehow intentionally screwed with over a BBQ invite is lunacy. This follows the post wedding dinner "insult".
Some people have no confidence in themselves and feel everyone is looking to attack them.
Fez, I liked you on air, but this attacking of Dave (and more importantly of casey) has got to stop- YOU sir are going to make fans dislike you, not dave. you really need to relax dude and get to enjoying life.

yea that traffic does suck, but everyone who lives in NJ has dealt with it at one point. like i said, if you really want to be somewhere you get there.
The easiest thing to do is be mad at something in the past, because there is nothing anyone can do to fix it. If fez cared so much about hanging out with dave, he could be a big boy and make future plans with him and his wife. fez is a bachelor and casey and dave have 2 kids. the only thing keeping fez at his house is fez.

no, they are not paranoid but coddling and enabling Fez' problems.
All the people that got the same text replied in one or another witty way and did not take it at a shot against them.
Not to mention Fez went on Casey's twitter to read about the bbq, so he would have brought it up today no matter if he was invited or not.
I have said it in the listening thread already, but Fez is pulling a MikeyD on Casey right now... and he of all people should know how that feels.
Aside from being a wife to a show member she is a mom and has a whole other life outside the show that she is dealing with, and her twitter. FB updates show she is seriously worried about something personal and now has to put up with this shit too. She does not deserve this kind of treatment at all.

As Katja said, I just hope Casey was in on the bit. Her hurt twitters and posts were probably just part of the joke and we are all rubes. If that's the case, well done R&F.
Fez's insane rants about Casey orchestrating Dave's anti-Fez conspiracy and Ron bringing up the BBQ over and over again make me almost certain this is a bit. At one point, Fez said Dave can't spell 'cordially', suggesting Casey wrote the invitations hoping to hurt Fez. He almost broke character when he said this.
Besides, Casey's tweets and posts made it seem as though she was really hurt. I can't believe Ron would just continue to bring it up throughout the show if that was the case. Especially when Dave said that Casey's brother is sick. There is no way that Ron would have mocked her brother like he did and compare it to Fez's situation if it were real.
So, the R&F show is going the pro wrestling route. Fez will continue to be the heel, spouting anti-gun, pro-gay, pro-Iranian, pro-censorship opinions and attacking people's wives and families while we rubes write outraged posts on the boards.
I'm not a pro wrestling fan so it's not my cup of tea but I'm sure there is a big audience for this kind of humor so best of luck to the show.

maybe this comes down to a generational gap. I think this is perfectly acceptable. Maybe someone who is a little older might find this rude and as an afterthought. Dave is also a guy who invited his people to his wedding via evite. He just does a lot more things online then fez.

See this is where I diverge from the opinions expressed.
Its not what we all think BUT how FEZ thinks. His feelings may not make sense to us, be it late invites or how far it is to get to NJ. I feel that it is Daves responsibility to avoid this kind of stuff if he wants to hold his place on the show.
Fez may have feelings that don't make sense to us but if ESD is upsetting him in the long run he is burning his own bridges.

So, the R&F show is going the pro wrestling route. Fez will continue to be the heel, spouting anti-gun, pro-gay, pro-Iranian, pro-censorship opinions and attacking people's wives and families while we rubes write outraged posts on the boards.
I'm not a pro wrestling fan so it's not my cup of tea but I'm sure there is a big audience for this kind of humor so best of luck to the show.
I think it is a work...the on-air bickerers are in on it...at least a couple of the .netters are in on it (I couldn't believe it was possible to be a poor actor when posting)...and the entertainment IS making rubes of as many of us as possible...
They used to invite a couple rubes into the show for all of our entertainment...now they are entertaining themselves...
I hope this passes quickly!!!!!

See this is where I diverge from the opinions expressed.
Its not what we all think BUT how FEZ thinks. His feelings may not make sense to us, be it late invites or how far it is to get to NJ. I feel that it is Daves responsibility to avoid this kind of stuff if he wants to hold his place on the show.
Fez may have feelings that don't make sense to us but if ESD is upsetting him in the long run he is burning his own bridges.
do you seriously think him not inviting fez would have changed anything?
There is no doing right by Fez for Dave, his irrational behavior is very tiring...
Everybody feeding into it and being extra careful not to hurt his feelings when in the end they still hurt him regardless is not helping at all.
It seems Fez will always find a way to become the victim in any situation and only he can change that.
People around him should continue to behave normal. This walking on eggshells is bullshit!

I second this, Dave is funny, but he's no Fez.
Maybe Dave should invite Fez to something first and then it won't turn into this.
Why would Dave want to at this point? After weeks and weeks upon months of baseless attacks, snide comments, and blatantly vulgar hatred that Fez has displayed for Dave and Casey I don't really know why Dave tries at this point. God bless Dave for being the bigger person and continuing to try to build a bridge that Fez just doesn't even want to approach. Dave and Casey have just been fucking punching bags for Fez for months and I can't stand it anymore.

yea that traffic does suck, but everyone who lives in NJ has dealt with it at one point. like i said, if you really want to be somewhere you get there.
The easiest thing to do is be mad at something in the past, because there is nothing anyone can do to fix it. If fez cared so much about hanging out with dave, he could be a big boy and make future plans with him and his wife. fez is a bachelor and casey and dave have 2 kids. the only thing keeping fez at his house is fez.
Everybody's acting like the time the party started was some requirement to Fez's arrival. If the party started at 3, you don't have to show up at that time. So he would have showed up at 5? Big deal.
It's just stunning to me that anybody could claim that Dave and Casey did anything wrong by inviting anybody to their little gathering. If it's too much of a hassle for Fez, or he just didn't want to come, all he had to do was politely decline. Instead, it's some far-fetched plot to embarrass him (and even more bizarrely, it's a plot for Dave to steal his spot on the air).
For once, just forget about the show and the various personalities involved. Can anybody honestly say they'd be insulted by being invited to a party? Even if my biggest enemy asked me to come over, I'd politely respond whether I was going to show up or not.

But that makes it a "Damned if you do, Damned if you don't" situation.
Fez doesn't like last minute invitations and didn't like the wording of the invitation, so Dave is an ass who is just inviting Fez to bust his balls.
or
Dave decides to invite people to a cookout and doesn't invite Fez because he knows Fez hates last minute invites and wouldn't come anyway. Fez attacks Dave for intentionally not inviting him and trying to "drive a wedge."
or
Dave Invites Fez but follows up with "This is a serious invitation; although I know you probably won't be able to make it you are invited." Monday Fez attacks Dave for coddling him and also for throwing a last minute cookout specifically because Fez couldn't go.
Dave is just screwed any way you look at it. Ultimately, it is up to Fez to deal with his own issues and other people to go ahead and live their lives. And I don't say that out of nowhere - I am a "fellow sufferer" who has had to change a lot in order to get well and live in polite society.

He needs to do what it takes to smooth feathers not continue to ruffle them. Put out the fires that start.
If he continues to fight Fez he will eventually lose. Fez owns this enterprise Dave is a big part but he will not be indespensible if Fez continues to be pissed off.

I think in a lot of ways it is no win for Dave.

Ron points out that Dave laughs when Fez accuses him of some insane plan to get at him. I completely understand. I would do the same thing. I have been blamed for outlandish things before and I laughed too. I don't know what it is. partly, you can't take the accusations seriously and partly you feel like you are stuck in some Twilight Zone episode.
Everything Dave said and did today pointed to a guy who at the last minute sent out some emails inviting people over as a nice gesture even though he knew they probably couldn't make it.

an off air private activity has nothing to do with their relationship as employee & boss.
He did nothing wrong and it was dragged into the show... I can honestly see how Dave is at a loss anymore on how to even defend himself and his wife .
Treating Fez with extra care is just the medicine less version of covering up a reality Fez really just needs to learn how to live.
I don't even hear Dave teasing/ poking at Fez so much as Ron alluding to that it is what he is doing on air... basically Ron is feeding into Fez' illusion... so who is really "poking the tard" here?

Let me just make this clear, for the last time....
I love fez. He has done many things for Dave and I and has been a great friend. I don't see why I would be plotting against him.
I think fez is very funny and only want the best for him in life. When he expressed looking into hospitals, I recommended one I knew to be helpful. I'm sorry it didn't work out.
If he genuinely is upset with me for whatever reason, he can email me whenever he wants and I will always be up to answering him. He's not only my husbands boss, he is also my friend.
I don't know what to do to repair this as I really truly don't know what I did wrong.
My twitters were in regards to something completely unrelated to the show. My mother has been having a hard time with doctors as of late and I was going to call and scream at them to get my brother seen by someone before his medical condition worsens.
hence the... I think I will be hated today thing.
I have been no angel. I know that my remarks in a thread about a certain sponser really ticked him off. I apologized for that. It was my mistake. I make those sometimes.
He may be angry over notre dame day.... I again, don't realize what I did wrong. Sheepy and I are just fine and if you think I was teasing him. It was my humor. I apologize if I offended either of you and I moved on. If this is in regards to something else... I would love to know.
I love you fez. Thanks for everything. I am sorry for whatever I did. Feel free to contact me.

well said. I think people are generally cowards when it comes to Ron. He clearly was "poking the tard" today. How many times had the whole thing died down when he brought it up again? I was especially disappointed when he was making jokes equating Casey's brother's condition to Fez's. Dave said Casey was having a rough day because of he bro and Ron said Fez is having a rough day because of his condition. He didn't know shit about her bro's sickness and it just seemed callous.
I get it, stirring up shit sometimes makes for good radio but it hasn't over the last couple of days.
Besides the bit was boring

Because we know the way you call in and take Fez's side right away...you have established a reputation for it, hence why everyone failed to recognize your "sarcasm."

This may be the first time ever that I didn't laugh during a Ron and Fez show. Today was just repetitive bullshit. More shots at ronfez.net this afternoon and even Ron got in on the action screaming at a dumb caller.
Hell, Mikeyboy was raising his voice when speaking to Mafia Life Chris.
Why is everyone so bitchy?
Yeah, that too me was the low point of it all. Not because Ron is not entitled to bitch at his callers, but that he bitched at the guy for bringing up "an old topic".
Well, no call goes through unless Ron sees it, reads the topic and puts it through.
By allowing the guys call to go through, ron was doing the same thing he bitched at the caller about.
Saddest thing is that it seemed like the anger became contagious and ron had to snap at someone.

Katja it's fairly simple. Ron said today that Dave went out of his way to bring up the bbq, he tossed aside the Ichibans to do it. I am not saying the invite was a tease, but I do think Dave wanted to bust balls because he didn't get a text back from Fez like he did the others. So maybe Dave could have kept his mouth shut and not mention it on air.
Considering they hadn't talked about pre show this whole thing could have been avoided if Dave didn't bring it up. Dave created this mess on his own.
Fez is pretty fucking wacky when it comes to the off-air incidents, but it's so obvious at this point that Dave has no problem stepping over Fez and shows him no respect on his own show.

Well prep would be good in any case, but in this case Dave saved this up to get more airtime and take a shot at Fez, Ron knew it and he pointed out to Dave that he brought the topic up on purpose. Fez checking out Casey's twitter is what you do when you miss something and you want to know how it went, I highly doubt he would have mentioned the bbq today if Dave didn't bring it up.
He might have mentioned it in a few weeks because he stewed on it but I think today's cluster fuck was Dave's doing.
The only thing I think Fez needs to do is forget about Casey and stop making comments about her. There is no rule that says you have to like your co-worker's wife so if he doesn't that is fine, but bringing her up during today's show was lame, unless he has proof that she is whispering into Dave's ear that he should be second mic, making comments like that are out of line.

Considering they hadn't talked about pre show this whole thing could have been avoided if Dave didn't bring it up. Dave created this mess on his own.
did you hear the same show? Cause Fez said he went on Casey's twitter to find out about the BBQ to talk about it on the show.
He also said later that he waited to bring up his issue with Dave in person (on air) right after gvac had called in wondering why people need to drag their issues through message boards and electronic media instead of talking face to face.

You honestly believe there was malice on Dave's mass text? Come on. Have you ever had a last-second invite to a gathering?
I'm not sure if there was actual malice behind it, its tough to tell. Its just that with the way Fez has been lately, Dave probably should have seen this coming and known better.

I guess Dave and Casey should just put their entire lives on hold so that they never run the risk of angering poor Fez.

Well I didn't say that. In my original post I put some of the blame on Fez. He definetely overreacts all the time and throws fits for inexplicable reasons. I don't feel bad for Fez, I'm just sayin Dave should have seen this coming.

From what i recall, the whole topic began with Dave saying "I'm still waiting for you to come by" to RON....bc ron text him that he would be there.
I dont think that he brought it up to ridicule Fez, but instead it was more like a joke on himself, that dave is still waiting (as im sure the poor bastard did!) anxiously waiting for his idol to come by the house.
Fez, we love you, but you took this waaaaaaaaaay out of context.

Well prep would be good in any case, but in this case Dave saved this up to get more airtime and take a shot at Fez, Ron knew it and he pointed out to Dave that he brought the topic up on purpose. Fez checking out Casey's twitter is what you do when you miss something and you want to know how it went, I highly doubt he would have mentioned the bbq today if Dave didn't bring it up.
He might have mentioned it in a few weeks because he stewed on it but I think today's cluster fuck was Dave's doing.
The only thing I think Fez needs to do is forget about Casey and stop making comments about her. There is no rule that says you have to like your co-worker's wife so if he doesn't that is fine, but bringing her up during today's show was lame, unless he has proof that she is whispering into Dave's ear that he should be second mic, making comments like that are out of line.
The question you are not asking yourself is, "would Fez have gone, regardless of when the invite was sent?" Most of us can agree that the answer is no. The other option would be for Dave not to have invited Fez. This would again result in a big blowup. Dave is trapped no matter how you look at it.

Dave screwed up when he decided to pile on Fez when Fez was trying to deal. Ironic, since that is the period in which Dave was given so much mic time.
And one would almost think Dave was one of the show's hosts from reading threads like this. But Fez has been sounding pretty strong lately. There is no question he's aware that Dave has expropriated his authority and role to some extent, and he obviously is intent on putting an end to it.
It's a hard thing for Dave to walk back at this point so the only option he has is just taking whatever Fez hands out for as long as he feels like handing it out. I like Dave but Ron and Fez is a great show with or without him. Maybe he should keep that in mind and grovel to Fez for as long as it takes.

Fez is pretty fucking wacky when it comes to the off-air incidents, but it's so obvious at this point that Dave has no problem stepping over Fez and shows him no respect on his own show.
How much respect would you have for a boss that over the last 3 years has done less and less of his job requiring you to do more of it? Fez has put it in neutral and is coasting. when was the last fezatorial, open letter or any Fez created bit? Dave has passion for what he does and that frightens Fez. He knows that a producer can become a second mic with Ron, that's where he came from. So why not take Dave as a challenge and step up??
Does anyone think if the phone call at JKF from the pd asking if Fez was in today(since he wasn't talking) happened now instead of then that Ron would go off even half as much as he did then? I don't.
Dave should just go back to being a producer and let Fez show off his diminishing radio skills. See how often Ron calls someone into the studio. Even Chris Stanley has been getting more and more mic time.
Dave makes Ron laugh and has decent discussions with Ron. I may be wrong but it seems that I hear Ron say things like "You bring up a good point" much motre to Dave them Fez.
it's not a bit...it's a work...it's not real...it's personal...
bottom line...it's not entertaining...today's show was more disappointing than any I have heard...if the entire audience was the 10 people involved...then maybe...maybe...it would be entertaining....
right on. that show really will have me listening less. Once Fez gets into his whoa is me bit I'm gone.
Fez it's time to get out of the house, grow up and get some life experiences other than TV and comic books and if you want to feel tough with a lady how about talking to your mom about the so called secret rather than beating up on Dave's wife.
Done venting.....:sad:

I just listened to yesterday's show. Fez is out of his fucking mind. Seriously. It's not paranoia...Fez thinks everything that goes on has something to do with him, because he deals no one in his life other than himself.
Maybe Dave and Casey should have driven 2 hours and held his cook-out on Roosevelt Island to make it easier for him. The funny thing is, if Fez had suggested it, Dave probably would have done it...

I know that my remarks in a thread about a certain sponsor really ticked him off.
Sorry for the threadjack, but I hate the story about that. Any review site worth its salt has positive and negative reviews. Amazon, Consumer Reports, Yelp...whatever. I think Fez got it into his head that the site should be like the Press Secretary for the show with a sanitized take on reality. :wallbash:
Sorry, maybe I need to step back from the show a bit. I seem to be mimicing its manic-depressive tone. Last week was really good and now I feel the abyss opening up again.

Been listening since dot com days and reading dot net since its inception. never been compelled to post but yesterday changed that for me. The show has changed alot over the years usually always good but lately not so much. There are some things that annoy me more than the typical complaints. Mainly its the attitude of "unless you post in the vain of Moe, your not a fan" this mentality has spilled over into the show. First off a message board, twitter, facebook etc. shouldn't affect on air personailties. This is the internet, everyone, Ron and Fez included know its all bullshit and doesn't matter. (just as in reality this post doesn't mean shit). Secondly message boards are meant for how people feel about a given topic be it good or bad. For a show to be so involved with it that any negative comments cause issues on air is ridiculous and makes the hosts no better than the people they complain about who post.
The other thing that truly bothers me is the fact that in a lot of people minds,Fez included, Ron does no wrong. Dave may ball bust, but Ron is a huge advocate of "poking the retard". Ron, countless times says something along with Dave and Fez only goes off on Dave. Its tiresome.
The way I see it is all parties are guilty for the shows current issues. Ron doesn't take responsibility for all the shit he causes that falls on Dave. Dave needs to grow up and stop trying to impress Ron. He doesn't speak up at all for fear of his job (I would have warned Fez once to keep his mouth shut about Casey then he would have got popped), Fez needs......too many to list. Just my 2cents

I always wonder how Fez can get a paycheck without earning it. This has gone on for years. When Ron had jury duty they had to run a pre-recorded show because Fez wasn't capable of doing a show by himself. Ron does shows by himself, but Fez can't do 5 minutes alone.
This is the big elephant in the room. Fez is no longer consistently competent at his job.
Fez, consider this an official write-up that's going in your personnel folder. Get your act together.

It's funny how ron said how he wished fez wouldve confronted him during his darker days, and he's previously mentioned asking fez if they should stop the show.
It's seriously time for ron to take things in his own hands, the on air comments aren't doing the trick, fez doesn't care enough about anyone else to take those comments to heart.
And if dave is guilty of anything it's trying to be funny, and he obviously knows who to pick on.

I have been on vacation since last Monday and as usually happens, I actually listen to less of the shows (R&F and O&A) live when away from work. I record them and listen, in order, at my leisure.
I am currently listening to last Thursday's O&A show. From the comments made out here I am actually contemplating skipping Friday's and Monday's Ron & Fez shows. I know I won't because I love them so much, but I guess I need to fasten my safety belt since it is gonna be a bumpy ride. :glurps:

Fez is aperfect axample of what a coddled, weak, pussy country we have become. A half closeted, scared to follow thru cock sucker who cant do his job yet steals half a contract has the balls to discredit the retard dave. all the criticism yet dave has saved the show for fez and fez is too fucking cheap to throw him a cut of the check.

This sensitive help everyone Fez is a fucking sham.
He doesn't really feel that way. He only feels sympathy for himself. If he's talking about the kid, he is talking about himself. Does he feel any sympathy for Dave's situation? No, because he cannot relate to it any way.
Fez was never nice. Do you hear how he used to talk to the interns or Billy Staples? I was listening the other day to a WJFK show when Billy was still there, where someone had posted his "biography" on IMDB. It was probably the funniest thing I have ever heard. Fez was laughing maniacally at the embarrassing details included in the story, and throwing in lines left and right killing and mocking Billy Staples.
Fez does not have that in him anymore. I don't know if he ever will again.

He should really just take it and ask for more - being grateful he's on a show with the best team in the history of radio. Just because he had more mic time for a while doesn't mean he shouldn't be smacked with a rolled-up newspaper every time he steps out of line.

Secondly, I dont get how Dave should be happy to sit back and have a guy talk shit on him and his wife. Especially considering Daves been doing that guys job for the last year at least.
To say now that Fez is half of the greatest team in the history of radio is like saying Bill Cartwright was a main factor on the greatest teams in Chicago Bulls history. Hes a co-host in name only.

Dave hasn't been doing Fez's job. Not even close. He has done no favors for Fez, but instead has benefited from Fez's occasional medical and psychological issues in that he has been afforded more mic time as a result of those issues.

I disagree with your analogy and your opinion that Fez is a co-host in name only.

I think this is well said and I totally agree.
I honestly dont understand why ESD's wife/family is an okay target for Fez's insane attacks. I mean the guy just brought up a post she made two fucking years ago on a message board! This is insane!! Not to mention the fact that - as gvac said - the dynamic of the show has changed, and Fez's role now cannot be just explained away by "medical problems"
The guy is insane and his new on air persona is nothing but frustrating to listen to. The show I love so much has seriously bummed me out recently.

I dont know about you, but if my boss talked about my wife the way Fez talked about Casey, Id have knocked flat on his fucking ass. Not smiled and thanked God for how "lucky" I was to have a job. But Im a hothead. Not saying Dave should do that. Hes in an unenviable position and getting fired would be the worst thing that could happen to his family. But if I was him Id work my ass off to make my own name valuable enough that if I decide to drop the hammer I could land on my feet.
And hes not only been doing Fez's job, but doing it well. Thats what this is all about. Fez seeing that he cant do his job and theres a more then capable guy standing right there to replace him if the suits at Sirius decide to pull the trigger. Everyone blames Dave for Fez not talking, Ron has him in there for a reason, and that reason is when its just Ron and Fez, Ron has to 90% of the talking. Fez does 5% and the other 5% is filled with dead air.

You can disagree all you want. That what opinions are for anyway. Bottom line is Fez has disrespected Dave alot more and alot worse then Dave has ever disrespected him. If you buy into this whole fucking "invite me / dont invite me" psycho babble hes spouting youre as delusional as he is. Theres no excuse for attacking a guys wife whos not part of the show.

It's the truth of the observation based on the well-established narrative that's funny, and Fez and his personality are a part of the narrative. So is Dave, although he might not like his part much these days.

We had many a laugh at ET's expense, right? I understand some of the listeners have personal relationships with Dave but don't think that's true for the audience at large and if more people are laughing at or otherwise entertained/intrigued by all of this than made uncomfortable by it, there really is no argument against it. None of us are as capable of making that call as the people who are currently making it. As for Dave making his name valuable enough - there isn't much disagreement that his efforts in that regard included disrespecting Fez.
And hes not only been doing Fez's job, but doing it well. Thats what this is all about.

I enjoy most of Dave's contributions. He's intelligent, knowledgeable in some relevant areas, and has some hilarious quirks. Two things he isn't are indispensable and anywhere near as talented/entertaining as Fez. Nobody blames Dave for Fez not talking - it's just that talking more doesn't automatically elevate his position or change his role. I doubt Fez is seeing Dave as a replacement threat as opposed to a disrespectful ingrate.
You can disagree all you want. That what opinions are for anyway. Bottom line is Fez has disrespected Dave alot more and alot worse then Dave has ever disrespected him. If you buy into this whole fucking "invite me / dont invite me" psycho babble hes spouting youre as delusional as he is. Theres no excuse for attacking a guys wife whos not part of the show. Especially when she has repeatedly said she doesnt know what she did wrong and doesnt want to be part of this. Its fucking inexcusable, especially by someone whos supposed to be a "professional".
1. As a host of his show, Fez is allowed to disrespect Dave. 2. As a host of his show, Fez is entitled to be sensitive to whatever he feels like being sensitive to 3. There is an argument as to who is or isn't a part of the show. Fez, as a host of his show, is entitled to determine whether someone is or is not. For example, today "insane" Fez screamed out that Dave was "insane" because Dave described his current birth control practices. Should the host, Fez, bite his tongue in those discussions? Should Fez, wait for Dave to inform him of which topics are fair game for discussion and which are not?
Someone in Dave's role doesn't really have any choice other than to be a grateful subject of the hosts' decisions, moods and caprices. He might be able to figure out a way to make things better, but I would just say he didn't help himself by forgetting that aspect of his role for several months.

1. Fez is more entertaining then Dave in your opinion. Hes not even close to Dave in my opinion.
2. As host of the show he has the right to say to Dave whatever he wants.....except when it comes to disrespecting Daves wife or kids. No job position gives you that right. Fez does it because he knows Daves not in a position to do anything about it. If Dave happened to have alot of family money and could legitimately punch Fez dead in his face and lose his job without hurting his family, Fez would think twice about crossing that line.
Ive dealt with bosses that use their position and their employees financial situation to take advantage of that power and Ive learned from a very young age, when they know an employee doesnt need the job, they are alot more careful about what they say to that person and how they say it.

I don't see how Dave has been "disrespectful" to Fez, as some are saying. Sure, he's busted balls, but I don't think he's really said anything that Ron wouldn't, and I don't think Fez feels disrespected by Ron. Fez's role on the show seems to be the guy who says or does something stupid or insane and then gets made fun of for it. Lots of times Dave will run with the bit and pick up on something that Ron's teasing Fez about, like the Rez thing, and then Fez will get furious with Dave and not the guy who started it (:smoke:). In fact, since the big blowup, Fez has tried a couple of times to start falling into the old habit of busting balls with Dave again, and Ron's had to call him out on it, telling him that he can't trade jabs with Dave for fun some days and then act sensitive on others.
If you look at Dave's intentions and motives, it's obvious that he loves the man and wishes him well. He just teases him like an older sister sometimes.

that is maybe the greatest recipe for disaster ever. You might as well have typed bring dynamite to a nursery school and leave matches with children.
and for anyone who thinks dave is robbing fez's mike time, listen to the 2 moths of shows after the heart attack and before dave got in there. It was early and harry elvis or maybe pitzy. talk about long uncomfortable breaks. also, ron would throw it to break so quickly back then due to fuckups and no conversation. at least now ron can play off of dave

Read the whole thread - there are only a handful of pro-Fez posts (other than the argument above).
Long story short, many people don't think Fez should be supported in this instance and the thread reflects that.

No, that is not correct. Some people may hate Fez and want him off his own show, but many simply think he has gone overboard and his recent actions/arguments should not be condoned.
That is a more accurate portrayal of the thread. And it is asinine to call someone a "hater" for disagreeing with a persons comments or actions in a given situation.
Actually, it is just asinine to use the term "hater" at all.

I dont hate Fez. And I dont want Fez off the show. But if someone is wrong, I say they are wrong. And I dont sugarcoat what I say or make excuses for why someone may feel justified in what they do.
In this instance Fez is wrong. Doesnt matter why he feels that way, or if people agree with him, or if they think that Casey should be fair game because shes been in studio...hes wrong. Someone brought up Daves ex gf. A girlfriend is not a wife. The same rules dont apply. You dont go after a guys wife.
Thats the reason so few people are in here "supporting" Fez.

You're making too much of a general statement about people who disagree/don't like or comment about something on the show.
It's not just listen to the show. Like the show
Don't like something on the show. Don't listen to the show at all.

That retarded. Why would I stop listening to the show if I dont like what Fez does? I said it before, the show is 90% Ron anyway. Believe me, if Ron left the show and it was just Fez and any other co-host Id be fucking gone along with most of the other listeners.

Fez has been funny through all his incarnations. He has been hilarious lately and part of that is that he just stopped taking crap from anyone.
I think as soon as he is convinced Dave has been put into his proper place, Fez will lose interest in picking on him. Dave went after Fez for a long time and he still busts Fez's balls more than any other staffer ever has, so his is probably in for more pain. Fez has shown that nothing is off-limits, so Dave will just have to tread lightly.
No one can seriously say that if Dave brings up his home life, it is off-limits to Fez. If Dave stopped opening that door, and if Dave's uber fans here stopped trashing Fez, you would probably see Dave become a less appealing target for Fez.
I don't necessarily hope that happens. The situation provides endless laughs. Yesterday's revelation that Dave "left his kids with Joel Steinberg and Hedda Nussbaum" as one caller put it was even funnier with Fez's catty take.

Nobdy said he "needs" to do anything. But this thread was basically about who you think is right in this situation and who you think is wrong. And its pretty clear most people here (Im guessing the logical ones) feel Fez was 100% wrong. I dont remember saying he had to do anything.

See I agree with this. And I also agree his homelife is fair game....as long as Fez is attacking Dave. It doesnt bother me as long as he leaves the wife and kids out of it. Only fuckbags and cowards attack a mans family. Look at some of the other threads around here, youll see some great examples.

And I got pissed because I don't think Fez needs to do shit what us fans think. I'm just of the opinion that Ron and Fez don't need to do shit but entertain people, and if they don't, then they don't, they try again another day.

That might be a good general rule but I don't think it's a hard and fast one and this particular situation is a shade of grey if there ever was one. Hairs are being split about wife vs girlfriend, etc. but the stronger point is that Dave himself has utilized his family as a tool of entertainment.
In fact, everyone who has discussed their family with any depth whatsoever has had their family become subjects of "attacks" if that's what you choose to call it. What do you think of references to Beanie's sex life (sometimes with Dave)? Even Dave finds that stuff funny. If it's different, explain why, because I'm not seeing it.

Theres a difference between busting balls about a persons family in a funny way, and maliciously attacking them. Considering someone like Beanie loves Ron, listens to the show, and laughs at his jokes, you can see that making small jokes at her expense to get a laugh isnt bothering her.
This whole thing where Fez keeps blaming Casey for everything he considers a slight against him isnt even a joke. Hes not making jokes or trying to be funny. Hes stating what he percieves to be reality. Some people laugh because its so fucking ludicrous, but that doesnt make it a joke.
Even when they made fun of Claire it was more in a joking fashion then it was purposley mean.
If youre not married that may be why you dont get it. If you are imagine your boss saying to you, in front of people, "I think your wifes a bitch and every time you invite me somewhere I feel its her way of taunting me. I dont like her and Im going to keep calling her rude, sneaky and bitchy everytime I see you even in front of other people." What would you do? And how would you feel about your boss?

Actually in a way I' jealous of Dave. My wife wants a kid but I'm so terrified I haven't provided it so far. I know we'd find a way but I'm still enjoying being married and hacing disposable income. I want one too but I'm scared shitless
(I'm not being a wise ass I'm dead serious)
And I am also fully aware if I do not provide that within a year she may leave me ( I know take it to "That's Life" )
