    Hello, hello, guess who? Umm, I think you’re a little surprised by this, and you’ll to excuse me because I lost my voice on Friday. It is Tuesday at 12:28 in the afternoon, and I came home from work early because I wasn’t feeling that good. I wanted to get this out to you.
    First of all, as you might have noticed I bought a new video camera, and I wanted to try it out. So that is what this is all about. I have had a lot of things I wanted to say to you, which I think I should be saying in person, but getting an audience with you seems to be difficult. I could have wrote this to you in a letter, but these are things I don’t want to say to you over the telephone because I think you need to hear my voice and you need to see me to understand some of these things.
    This may get a little bit boring because when you don’t have someone to talk to you kind of have to do it all by yourself, which is why I am sending you this videotape. But hey, guess what? You haven’t seen me in seven months, and this is what I look like now. I’ve got my Atlantic Records T-shirt, my hair is a lot longer, but I just came out of the rain.
    I took some notes down. I had a lot of things I wanted to say, and like I said when you don’t have someone to talk to on the telephone to remind you of stuff, so don’t think I am cheating, but I had a lot of things I wanted to say and wanted to get them all in.
    Let’s start with the thing that prompted this whole thing. Last Friday night I felt like the biggest idiot in the history of the world and I was pretty hurt. I’m sure that wasn’t your intention. If you don’t know what I’m talking about let me tell you what I am talking about. I came home from the city and frank drove me over to his house and he told me to sit in the car while you were upstairs. And I felt like a schmuck, Nance. I felt like a real dick. Frank was like, “II will drop you off at Vinny’s because Nancy really doesn’t want to see you, and Maryanne said it’s not a good idea if I bring you back here. She really doesn’t want to see you.”
    We’re civilized here, don’t you think? What is this all about? It kind of hurt a lot. You know I told Frank the whole way there how I missed you and spoke to you early in the week. There have been a lot of opportunities where I could have seen you and set something up and I didn’t. I respect your wishes that you don’t want to see me. And I haven’t been doing it, and this was one of those purely coincidental things where I would have been nice to you. I would have said hello. So I gotta tell you I was really hurt by that.
    But in a way it makes me feel good because it tells me something: if you didn’t still care about me you’d see me, and I think you still do care about me. You care about me a lot. And I was telling Frank how the last seven months have been and how I knew I was wrong, and I started to tell him a lot of things and he said, “Do you think she knows that?” and I said, “Yeah, I think she knows it.” and he said, “Are you sure she knows it?” and I said, “I don’t know.”
    So I am going to try and put them down on video tape for you. These are forever, man. You’ll always have these to hold against me one way or the other.
    Let me start out, I feel like I’m asking your father for permission to marry you. I want to lay out my intentions. I want to lay out what I want, what I want from you. Obviously, I want to go back out with you again, that goes without saying, but I want more than that. The first thing that I want is I want a commitment. I want to give a commitment and I want to get a commitment. I want to be your boyfriend and I want you to be my girlfriend. I would dump everyone I was going out with in a second if it meant you’d be back with me. And it would be just me and you. I want to be clear. I want to do things for you. I know I was kind of insensitive before, and ah, there is not much I can do about it. I can say I’m sorry, but I am not going to sit here and make excuses. What’s done is done. I can’t change what’s behind me; there are a lot of excuses why I acted that way, but there are no reasons and that is behind me.
    I want to do a lot of the things we said we were going to do but never got to do. I wrote so much stuff down, a lot of it had to do with the fact that I was afraid of commitment. I know you think I was insensitive. I was afraid that anything I did for you, any kind of love I showed you or any kind of stuff like that, would lead you more down the way that I didn’t feel at the time. Let me try to explain. Let’s say I gave you roses for no reason at all. I felt in my mind how could I do that if I don’t love her because in your mind you were going to think that I did.
    But I’m romantic. A lot of people find that hard to believe. I could be if I was up for a commitment, but I wasn’t at that time so that’s that. the other part of my intention here is that I’ve been saying I’m a marriage martyr for a long time. And I am not asking you to marry me on videotape and certainly not tomorrow, either, but I would like to think if we got back together and became a couple again and it was working, somewhere off in the distance would be the possibility of mmmmmmmmarriage. That was a joke. I’m trying to make light of a serious subject. I don’t want to be running around anymore. I do want to get married, and yeah, I could see myself marrying you, especially if you were interested in marrying me back.
    I have something like that in mind, and I am not just bullshitting. I miss you. I miss you. I miss you. I am not even trying to hide that. None of my other relationship shave worked because of you. I am not even trying to hide that I miss you, man, don’t know how else to say it. I lost my love and I lost my best friend. And you lost your lover and you lost your best friend. But you gained a lover and a best friend: I gained a couple lovers, I mean one lover, but I gained no friends. There is no one there to come home to call or tell all the great stuff. Like right now I feel my professional life is at a nine and my personal life is at a two. Now I feel great about the way work is going and the curse with that is that I have no one to share it with. That sucks.
    I can tell you that going back out with me would solve a lot of problems. Because your friends are my friends and mine are yours, and I have to sometimes feel uncomfortable around my friends when it comes to you and it sometimes feels weird. I don’t know if you are happy where you are right now. I mean I hear stuff through the grapevine. I gotta tell you the people I hear from think that you are happy and that you are content, but they don’t know if you are really, really happy. And I think I can make you that happy. I thought you and I were really happy when we were happy. I want to do all the things we said we were going to do and never did, like going to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Philharmonic. Things that I promised we would do and never did because I was afraid of the c-workd, the commitment word.
    Here’s my final statement. I know that sending you this tape is very unfair. And I realize that. but I don’t give a shit because all is fair in love and war. I’m playing a little dirty and quite frankly I am trying to get any edge I can to get you to listen to me. If you want me to leave you alone, I’ll leave you alone. I’ll stop with the phone calls. I’ll stop sending you t-shirts in the mail and, you know, this videotape. I’ll put it all to an end.
    But I am going to not let you off the hook that easy if you want me gone. I want to take about ten minutes of you time. If you want me gone you have to tell me face-to-face: you have to look me in the eyes and tell me you don’t care about me anymore. I think you owe that to me. Well quite frankly you don’t owe me anything, but for the time we sent together I think you do owe me that and if you could do that you would really make me believe it. I don’t know if you can do that.
    So that’s it. I am trying to figure out if that made some sense. I am in a very confused state. I miss you. I not only miss the things we did. I miss the shit that we should have been doing and never got to do. I just want to be part of your life again, man, and I want you to be part of my life again. And, um, you know, I don’t know what else to say. Think about it please. I am not begging now. I am not the b-b-b-begging type, but I am close to begging as I can get. I really want you to think about this whole tape, and the great thing about videotape is you can rewind it and watch it all over again, make sure you don’t miss any important parts.
    I think we could be good together. Please think about it. Thanks.

    A lot of the stuff he said and did in the 80s and 90s would probably get him fired and "canceled" today before the segment even finished. People would lose their minds if he busted out Mama Lookaboobooday today.

    I wonder what Hate Man is up to these days?

    Show is so tired now. I listened daily since the mid 90s. I slowly stopped over the last six months or so. Tuned in again recently. Horrible. He should have hung it up before his last reup on his contract.

    I had stopped listening about mid 2019. I was creating emails to sign up for the free 3 months/30 days whatever they were offering. I didn’t really stop for any reason the show wasn’t what it use to be but it was like ok and fun to listen to. I started listening again at the start of the pandemic and it was total dogshit. Have tried to pick it back up here and there and still total dog shit. I would like to have it for the archives tho. Those are a joy.

    When the show became Ronnie centric is when I realized it just was not the same. Artie had a lot of cons but he filled in the gaps better than anything that they have done since. Sal and Richard go weeks without content.

    I listed every day, had Howard TV, went to a taping of AGT. But it got old on me. It started to go downhill for me when Artie left. But I still listened until about 2 years ago. The whole Brent and Ronnie all day. I couldn’t take it anymore. I still listen to old bits when I got a long ride.
