I feel that these 3 guys have a lot of potential. They are all humble dudes who aren't out to try to impress anybody, and they don't have the "I'm better than you attitude" that barry does. Barry treated Mr. Right and Jorge like circus acts on his show, and that's not cool. You don't treat people like that and then keep asking them to come on your show, just so you can either make fun of them or criticize them.

The introduction of the Jorge character was around the time when the show was really good and at its best. I started listening since the very first episode (Ive listened to them all except 1 bonus show from early 2009) that I got from Bitseduce, and I always enjoyed when Jorge and Mr. Right were featured guests for all the reasons Nicholaus explained. The Mr. Right Christmas Special in Dec 2008 was fuckin brilliant I thought.

Mr. Rights prank calls are some of the funniest shit Ive heard, especially the one with Johnny Soporno. Classic shit. Jorge's description of the "mexican lair" and the "mexican Mystery" was hilarious. "What Time Is It Gonna Be On?", the catchphrase started by Jorge, and repeatedly sound clipped by Barry, was probably one of the worst voicemails ever~ in a trainwreck kinda way.

I miss those old days of the show, an I always felt that Jorge and Janene being gone so much and Mr. Right not being used enough were bad moves.

They were Barry's version of Howard Sterns Freak Show, but I think Jorge and Mr. Right were smart enough to know what was going on but continued to do it for fun and maybe go along with Barry's teasing.

I would also pick CoolKev as another great potential host, always loved the shows he's been on too.

Dont know much about Bropacylpyse, though Im sure you choose him for a good reason.

Really looking forward to this.

People say that I'm 'high & mighty' because I'm constantly looking down my nose at them.
