Al On Triple J [australia]

Post by **mewrio** » Sun Nov 19, 2006 12:56 pm

Hehe... that was pretty good. We may not have learnt a lot, but I think Al did. Randomly amusing, although it got a bit awkward in a few bits. But if Al meant that the deal has definitely gone through, all I can say is YAY!

And... Safran just apologised for talking too much. Well, I can't blame him. I imagine many a WOWAY member would do the same thing given the opportunity.

What a bizarre interview.

I do have to say, though, that it was a HEAP better than I was anticipating.

The question is, is Al Jewish? For some reason I thought he was, but maybe I'm just making things up again

Anyone wanna find that White Supremacist site, by the way?

IIRC, Al's a non-specifically-denominational Christian. I'm sure he's not Jewish though.

I thought that was a great interview. Glad to know it was pre-recorded, since it was past 2am in California at the time the interview aried! Father Bob is a bit insane, but John really did prove himself to be a big fan. A few interesting points came up (first girlfriend, his ancestory, some of his childhood). I enjoyed it.

Edit...

I didn't go to the site, I just googled it

Oh man... seriously, you need a bit of strength to struggle your way through this stuff. Not for the faint of heart, people. Safran was right, there's a lot of fighting about it. Most found it racist and stupid, but opinions are divided.

Enter at your own risk.

I found the topics [there's a few dupilcates] on W&N before seeing your post Mewrio.....those guys are reading into the video WAY too much. There a a few members that get that it's just meant to be a jab at white nerds

EDIT: I've put the link to the interview in the first post of this topic

It's weird but nice to see them appreciating Al towards the end of that.

In retrospect...did anyone else get the impression from the Safran interview that Father Bob had NO idea who Al is?

He's 70 years old... it doesn't really surprise me. The Croatian question was especially awkward.

BTW, for the Americans, the official MP3 of it will turn up here some time within the next few hours hopefully.
