Woah dude. Relax. I don't know why you are getting so defensive. No one is calling you a redneck except yourself.
You are welcome to your opinion and I'm quite sure I'm not going to change it. Nor am I interested in getting into an argument about it.
I was merely trying to explain what they are striving for - having worked in the industry, and on this station in fact - in this time slot as a fill-in (albeit with the old host).
When I did that - the host would typically explain to me what he was trying to do and my role in it (which was the straight man). It was actually a lot of fun and I never took offense to it. It was all in good fun and designed to produce the most entertaining show possible.
Now I get that bullying is something folks are more sensitive too now - and for good reason. Where that precise line is can be tough sometimes to gauge. I don't think these guys cross it - but that's my opinion.
