The Spike Nesmith Rage Machine
|
|
Spike Nesmith is an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, covered by mystery, with a side order of pancakes. He's been called "the most dangerous man in radio"*, and now, the award-winning Scottish broadcaster brings his trademark brand of oral irritation to the internet.
Prior to assuming the role of the internet's most entertaining, intriguing and enigmatic talk host, he was the star of one radio station and the scourge of another, a theatrical director and playwrite, a behind-the-scenes production god and cheeky on-air slag-for-hire in the central belt of Scotland, an incessantly drunk producer for an ill-fated radio soap opera in Belfast, a writer and performer in several radio comedy series, an on-demand comedy writer for BBC Scotland, an internationally syndicated showbiz commentator and was producer, head writer and co-host of 2004's "Large Market Talk Show Of The Year".
He exudes a hitherto unseen “minivan cool, drinks like a fish and refuses to apply for citizenship "until the country cleans itself up".
Shows are updated weekly on Thursday mornings (US eastern times).

A dissection - several days late and several dollars short - of the Sarah Palin interview, and, as a result, the return of "mep meeh". You know you want it, baby. Is she ready to be Vice President? Psshhhew! Find out her answer - tonight, on 20-20! Psshhheeww! "Charlie".
Also - McCain says two things at once in the same sentence, lazy lawyer tricks, "I can haz ignore teh supeenah?", whether or not the plane from "Worshington Jewells" has come in, an update on Poor Wee Joe Biden, Poor Wee Gordon Brown, and a glimpse at what's happening next week. Here's a clue, it's nothing to do with politics. | to send to friends | Download In What Respect, Charlie? | Play in Popup.

Also on the agenda, should the children of elected officials be in more or less danger than your kids and mine, if they enlist to the military? Was the McCain/Obama joint appearance at Ground Zero? to commemorate the 7th anniversaty of 9/11? politically motivated, or was it a nice "coming together for a nice day out"?
All that - and homework! Get ye to www.spikeshow.com and vote on whether you think rich people should be taxed more than we plebs. You've got a week!
