My friend insists that he says the idiotic things he does because he's paid to. I don't know if I actually buy into that, but this much I can promise you. There is no amount of money that would make me sit in front of a TV camera and say things that are so profoundly stupid that it'll cause your hair to hurt. If he truly believes the nonsense he spouts, he obviously doesn't have 2 brain cells to rub together.
There is one positive thing I can say about him, though. He has the best bumper music of all of them. Other than that, he's as useless as tits on a boar hog.
