TOP 5 WORST THINGS WE HATE THE MOST THAT WE DO ON THE ROB, ARNIE AND DAWN SHOW

Overview: Notice the wording; we understand that a lot of things we do on the show “work,” in the sense that they are popular and liked by a plurality of the audience; that doesn’t mean that we personally find them to be funny, entertaining or good.

Criteria: Anything that is a regular, occasional or on-going feature, benchmark, exclamation or segment during our show can be considered. Retired features such as “Shecky Dawn,” are not allowed. Constant elements of simply doing the show like “Dawn talking” are also not allowed.

Rob's Notes:  I understand that stupid stuff works and that we have to have a certain percentage of mindless, repetitive garbage on our show to keep certain brain dead listeners tuning in; most of my list is comprised of things I have never “gotten,” from their very inception but because people seem to like them, we keep doing them. None of my list has to do with how popular these stupid bits are, it has to do with how much I hate them.

Arnie's Notes: Look here, nothing, and I mean NOTHING drives me more nuts than when Dawn has to holler out something stupid like OBAMA, or HEY RENO, or What's up Chuck.  I don't know why people find that amusing or even entertaining.  Come on people it's DAWN!!!!!!!!

Rob's Top 5 -

Arnie's Top 5 -

5. Shouting out “NEW YORK CITY,” whenever the city is managed. It’s from a decades old “Pace Picante” salsa commercial. HELLO! Not relateable!

4. All of Dawn’s childish, unexplainable crappiness. “Andy, hey Reno, Mary, up-chuck, kelly kelly kelly.” Terrible.

3. Arnie asking, “have you ever been there” whenever a foreign country is mentioned. What is the fucking point?   

2. The 29 hour rad-a-thon. Pure torture.

1. The entire listener mail segment set-up. The crimpling, crankling, crumpling and all the rest. It’s become too big too fail, but I hate it!
