Hi, this is Alonzo Voten. Welcome to Who's Paying Attention, my podcast. This is episode 46, and I got to make some changes. You know, I was going over my comments and reviews, which some say you shouldn't read. And the best advice I ever got was, hey, if you accept a good review, you got to accept the bad reviews.

And I'm not talking about the reviews of people who hate me.

All right.

There's always that population that will disagree with you and therefore hate you.

Usually it's a political thing.

My funniest one of those recently was I got a post from a guy who there's a big motorcycle

touring rally in upstate Lake George, New York. It's called Ameriade. And I've done it a couple of times.

I've been there. It's a great hangout. Literally, 50,000 motorcyclists show up from all over the

country. And I've done a couple of shows.

So he said he went to my show at Ameriade and he loved it. He thought it was great, thought I was real

funny. And then I think he read a post that I wrote or maybe he heard some podcast or something

where I made fun of the tea party. and he was like, go fuck yourself.

Sorry about that.

I'm quoting his review.

Go fuck yourself.

So I went from funny to an unnatural act based on my dislike of the tea party.

So I'm not counting those reviews, but the one I read that really got me thinking,

somebody said that I'm funnier on other people's podcasts than I am on my own.

Recently, I've done Jay Moore's podcast.

It's always fun to do one with Jay.

And I did one with Andrew Dice Clay, which was really cool.

You talk about a friendship I didn't expect.
