[quote=Anonymous]He is so obnoxious.  I HATE Bobby Bones (the personality--not making a judgment against him as a human being).  I fantasize sometimes of meeting him one day and reading off my list of specific examples of how he is horrible.

Among them:
-self-deprecation in a way that clearly is fishing for compliments and reassurance, as in "I know I'm ugly, but..." so that people will tell him he's cute.

-self-deprecation in a way that he pretends to not understand how he is successful.  "I don't think I'm funny, but for some CRAZY reason, other people do.  So weird!  Oh well..."

-claims of humility on his social media accounts, but not understanding that when people brag about humble and kind things they've done, it loses the "humble" part of it.  He's been called out, and then claims that a) he doesn't post from the BB Show account (while posting from the BB Show account) and b) 'take that negativity elsewhere."

-how he actually was busted on his self-deprecation when he paid for anti-Bobby Bones billboards, so that he could use them as fodder during his show.

-he constantly interrupts everyone else on the show with insults disguised as jokes.  In the same vein, he often makes fun of Amy for being ignorant about a certain topic, while at the same time demonstrating how little he himself knows about it.

-nonstop book promotion, while claiming to "not care" if anyone buys it.  "You can buy it, or not, really, I don't care.  By the way, it's available on Amazon, and I've mentioned it five times an hour for the past month."

-constant promotion of his stupid band

-his fake "issues" that come up that are all manufactured for the show, yet he/they claim are real problems.  I know all shows do that, but his show in particular seems to make a big deal about how they're all "just friends talking with a bunch of microphones in front of them."

-clickbait-style "coming up" promos.  Again, I know every show does it, on radio and TV, but his seem especially obnoxious.  "Coming up, Lunchbox has a very strange habit that we all think is disgusting but he thinks everyone does it!"  Then an hour alter, we find out LB bites his toenails or something.  Whatever, boring, not funny.

I could really go on and on...

I used to listen on occasion on rotation with WPOC, whose morning show has a more comfortable, though sometimes less interesting, vibe, and Sirius.  But I bought a different vehicle this summer and my spouse now drives the Sirius-enabled car, so I fell back in love with making mix CDs.  I don't miss radio at all![/quote]
