Topic: Ian Punnett

[gandalf50]

Just stumbled across this forum the other day and I am pleased to see there is actually a community of non-shill, non-retarded Coast listeners out there!

I got banned from FF way back when ... does that qualify me for any special status here? 

So, on to my reason for posting. At approximately 41 seconds into Hour 1 of Ian's show on 11/19 Ian said:

"I got so many f------ tweets back from people"

Wh-wh-what??? Before I start speculating on why Ian might (accidentally) cuss on air, will someone else tell me if they heard what I heard? Perhaps I just imagined it.

You're not alone. I'm hearing the same. 

[b_dubb]

i believe he said 'frickin' but i'd have to go back and listen again

[The General]

You're not alone. I'm hearing the same. 

I hear "Funky."

[Morgus]

Looks like Ian is doing a show like Animal Planet tonight.
What is that all about? 

[Avi]

Yeah, I dunno if Ian can handle the funk.

Parliament - Give Up The Funk (Tear The Roof Off The Sucker

[Eddie Coyle]

 
    I can't fathom the Reverend even thinking about saying "fuck" on the air. But considering his standing/future with C2C, he should be uttering "The 7 Dirty Words" every other break.

[11angeleyes11]

Told you so!  Under Coast Highlights, it is none other that The D. B. Cooper letters.  Ian has the mike!

I went back and listened several times to be absolutely sure. Sorry, guys. All the poor guy said was "funny."
 
He stumbles into the show saying "You guys are funny," apropros to nothing.  Then rambles on Ian-style for another 40 seconds before saying he "got so many funny tweets back from people ... blah, blah, blah ..."  You know, the usual. 

[Morgus]

Ian is back to one of his old obsession topics again tonight, more on the decades old DB Cooper case.
Look for more of his fav topics returning as well soon, such as the horse-man guy and the Lindburgh baby...

[Eddie Coyle]

     Ian's wet dream:  Jason The Horse parachuting out of skyjacked plane with the Lindbergh baby in his arms and landing in Harry Shearer's yard.

Nice work.

[HAL 9000]

I heard it live, and even listening again only confirms what I originally heard him say, which is:

"I get so many funny tweets back from people..."

should tweet that to Ian's tweeter site - he might fall out of his chair...

Well, I'm trying to listen to Paul A. Trout, a retired English professor, discuss his Joseph-Campbell-esque book on monsters . . . but the talk is unbearable, as Trout is one of those methodical, repetitive types that despite his training seems to have never heard of that helpful part of speech called the pronoun and also pronounces certain words with an annoying affectation . . . jag-YOO-ar, for instance.

[Scully]

I'm listening to Ian and Trout, too.  For a while I was almost convincing myself that, while certainly not exciting, it was somewhat educational.
 
By this last hour, though it just seems pointless since I spend zero time worrying about being eaten by some animal.

His thesis is also pretty obvious and has been explored many times before -- years ago even master plagiarist Stephen King wrote his "Ten Bears" essay about the monsters people fear and why. 

[Vatar]

I thought that show was full of it. We all know the first gods the ancient people worshiped were the aliens that created us.  I think this Trout guy must have been living under a rock and not watching Ancient Aliens on the history channel.

Are you a city girl?  I ask because out here in Rural World, it's not entirely unusual to worry about being eaten by some animal.  Or at least harmed, if not eaten.  But daily life here is apparently nothing like life in a Kenyan village today, where someone has to sit up with a gun all night, every night, to fend off lions.  Makes you appreciate being able to lock the doors and generally keep the critters out. 

I rather enjoyed Ian's interview with Trout, even if it wasn't chock full of new ideas.  Even the callers brought some intriguing questions to the plate.  Beat the pants off the drunks calling Noory the other night. 

[CoastCanuck]

I only listened to the first few minutes of hour 1 last night.  Ian said he will be on Coast Insider this week where he will give a clue as to an upcoming annoucement he will make next week.

keep in mind that Ancient Aliens is produced by the same group that did Girls Gone Wild. a paragon of journalistic integrity it isn't.

I don't worry about animals attacking me I have a guns lots and lots of guns.

Fry's girl arm yourself or the raccoon that digs in your garbage might take you hostage.

I love how much my gun has scandalized some. Im also getting a nice .357 magnum. It's more for fun. Guns are awesome.

the recent Ian show is interesting.  you rarely hear/see a discussion of how natural selection shapes behavior in humans.  we tend to think we are somehow exempt from the forces of evolution but the truth is that our brains, biology and anatomy are all selected for by environmental pressures.

Imagine Snoory interviewing Ian's guest last night? He would have just rattled off animals asking how they kill people then wrapped it up with "Where can we get your book?" and been off to open lines in an hour.

[b_dubb]

Snoory looks a lot like Snooky.  made me do a double take

Good point, LB.  I live in suburbia now, but still rural enough to have lots of squirrels and bunnies running through my yard.  Once on a nearby walking trail at dusk, I saw the largest "cat" I've ever seen skulking along in the high weeds on the other side of a wire fence. I still wonder about that critter.  Don't know what it was, but it did give me pause.
 
As a child living on an east Texas bayou, water moccasins and copperheads made regular appearances in our yard, and I nearly sat down on one once.
 
All in all I think this particular subject just wasn't my cup of tea.

I will now worry about you being chased down by those squirrels and bunnies, Scully!     J/K

[11angeleyes11]

Scientific studies have shown that continued exposure to Miracle Grow and other lawn herbisides have made the current generation of bunnies and squirrels enter a New Age.  With that being the case, they have also developed more frontal lobe enhancement and can make the choice between good and bad.  Those bad, bad squirrels and wabbits.  They can be werry, werry dangerous. 

Update tonight in Crypto News.

[Scully]

Can't be too careful ... maybe another large caliber gun in my Christmas stocking?
