That's because the ads on GTA radio are just comedy bits. If ads on real radio were just clips of standup comedians, I wouldn't complain about 'em. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Also, is the DJ David Cross voices for KULT FM the same character he voices in San Andreas? πŸ€”

The ads didn't actually want to sell you anything.

I can practically hear Jerry Seinfeld saying "What's the deal with Giggle Cream?"

Patrice o Neal having a character in wktt gta4 radio is one of my faves. Those were so funny at the time

My main radio station I listen to is publicly funded so there's no ads. It does however have a show with 2 comedians doing social and political commentary with deadpan delivery. Sadly just one episode per week.

There's also a hangover show with other comedians but I don't find it as funny recently. Greatest hits include things like a morning exercise routine that concludes with moving yourself just enough to grab a beverage and resume drinking.

Wait, are you listening to the drunk Indian show on WOJB? I thought he died.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 weeks ago

Nope, different country. Unfortunately, the show is in Estonian so unless you speak it, I don't think it'll make any sense to you.

All the stations are such over the top parodies. Real world people saying dumb shit isn’t funny, it’s sad.
