He was brilliant
It wasnt a nice thing to say but I nearly drove off the road laughing :-))
RIP I-man.
It was only racist because they were black.
Nah. A lot of redheads have the same type of hair.
He called them his that’s why.
He called Hillary satan.
Haha, he knew how to compliment!
LOL! Never heard that one before. :-D
RIP, I-man.
I used to listen to him on my three hour commute from Western MA to Portland Maine. He was a fun listen. He had great guests and he knew what was what in politics.
He never offended ME. And if he had, I would have stopped listening.
Perhaps senility was setting in:
Pure Imus.
Imus was mostly a leftist, but an honest one. To me, “free speech” means Don Imus got to say whatever he wanted to say with no legal repercussions.
Most don’t remember that Imus cut a few comedy albums back in the day. He had one album of his prank calls on the radio, including the 1200 hamburger call. He also had one that included a bunch of his Billy Sol Hargus routines including the one where he asks the congregation if God talks to them.....”They’re going to lock your a$$ up....He don’t have time to talk to people. But He talks to me, and I talk to you”
He also did an album called “This Honky’s Nuts” - a direct response to Richard Pryor’s “That Nigger’s Crazy” album. The stuff he said on that album made the “nappy headed ho” comment that drove him off the radio sound like preschool talk. I used to have a copy, but don’t think I do any more - wonder if it’s still available? Talk about a snowflake trigger.
Yeah, but after his Nappy Hos observation, he folded like a cheap suit on his Apology Tour
Oh he did?
Ah, then I don’t care that he died :)
I didn’t know that. Wuss.
Classy
So ...
I have a question for yourself, or any of the other new-yawker’s out there.
Back in 1989, I spent some time as a co-op with IBM in lovely Poughkeepsie. On my way to ‘work’ in the morning, on the AM radio (crappy Ford Escort AM radio), I would catch this morning show out of NY with comedy bits, including one of the radio personalities would do this amazing Bullwinkle impression.
My favorite of these was Bullwinkle’s version of “Stairway to Heaven”.
Does anyone have any idea who that was, can it be found on youtube, anything like that?
Wondering...
I could tell you to go #### yourself but THAT’S not classy :)
With what you contribute to the board...it wouldn’t be wholly unwarranted
i’ve seen your drivel :)
Don’t know bro.
I actually only listened to Howard Stern and remember Imus when I was like 8 in my aunt’s car.
God forgive me I thought howard stern’s show was hysterical but incredibly crude and..
well I would still think it was hysterical!!!
Torn between humor and the decay of American society!!
RIP, Quack Quack!
He called them hos. It was a racial insult. And since he actually had nappier hair than the women on that team, that was also a racial insult.
