Remember Steve Armitage at the CBC? Everytime I saw him around the downtown studios or reporting in the streets, he looked like WC Fields... all red faced with a huge, red bulbous nose.

The guy looked drunk asf on the job.

Armitage was a wrinser for sure. Helmet Head fathered a child with Constable Ann Drennan that plays for the Sabres now. So was Mckeachie. Fucking marble mouth Mckeachie. The only saving grace for that guy was that he did land some good guests somehow. Otherwise he was an idiot with horrible delivery and worse people skills.

McKeachie is a great guy....

Funny interview with Shane Malloy, the clowns at 1040 try so hard to get him to slag on Benning and he doesn’t.

I've been reading here for years, Central before that, and I don't think I've ever actually heard the Anne Drennan story...?

Gillian Guess was another Dude conquest. She looks like she blew a beehive with those lips. Then again the Dude did frequent the DTES for decades so she might have gotten a bad batch ...

UDL, Blob speaks from experience. I have nothing to do with his delusions of me. He’s reaching out for help with the old “ I know a guy who has a crack cocaine problem” referring to himself. 3rd person in need.

A likely story. You owned all of these affairs many years ago, might be an idea to come clean. Sort of cathartic for you perhaps.
