What is Smartass Radio? It's a collective of intelligent idiots with one common goal - to each individually make themselves sound funnier and smarter than the next. In the summer of 2006 DJ and James came up with Smartass Radio as an idea to cater to their own twisted and irreverent senses of humor and music. It wasn’t until DJ landed an interview with Bumblefoot in March of 2007 that anything actually happened.
As time wore on and the site and interviews became more refined, so did their content.
Now, SmartassRadio.com is home to one of the funniest and most diverse podcasts on the internet. The ultimate goal now is to simply spread what some might call an epidemic of rude but intelligent humor and great music across the globe. Ambitious? Yeah. Possible? Entirely.
So drop a line to DJ@SmartassRadio.com and tell us what you wanna read and hear.
The Brains and the Bank Account:
DJ
As the primary voice of SmartassRadio, DJ is more than just an extrovert; he’s an attention whore. No stranger to any kind of booze, DJ is constantly either drunkenly explaining his feelings of self doubt and consciousness or soberly hiding it away under a larger than life on-air personality. His attitude may be abrasive, and his personal hygiene may be offensive, but at the end of the day he brings a lot of great ideas and jokes to the table (and even more shitty ones).
James
The webmonkey has finally come out from behind the curtain! This former school teacher is ready to be unleashed on a world which deems 15 “too young”. Characterized by his biting wit wrapped in an encyclopedic knowledge of metal and Shakespeare, James doesn’t take too much shit, though his height requires that he suck it up a little bit. This eldest member of SAR has little or nothing to prove to the world, but that doesn’t mean he won’t try.
The Hangers-on:
Roy
Imagine Leonardo Da Vinci's "Mona Lisa". Let's consider that painting to be SmartassRadio as whole (the metaphor isn't too far off). Now imagine the tiny stone bridge just over Mona's left shoulder. I bet you didn't even remember there was a bridge in the picture, you ignorant slob. Well it is there and Roy is here. He might not always be involved with the content or construct of SmartassRadio, but in the end a bridge is much more interesting than Da Vinci in drag. Also, it’s funnier and likes better music.
Frank
Frank has latched onto the website in vain hopes that he may some day cash in if the site ever turns a profit. In the meantime, he gets to tag along on interviews and go backstage to suck rockcock with the crew. He just got back from Europe, and it hasn't stopped him from blazing fat spacejoints of superweed to the face. He's slimmer than DJ, and dosen't have his shitty attitude, but he suffers chronic blackout experiences from trying to outdrink him.
Patty
Patty is too cool to take some time out and write her own bio. This may make her the most begrudging member of Smartass Radio, right ahead of the former holder of that title - Roy. She's also took Roy's place as the cohost of the live show in the Spring of '08. She's an enigma even to the writer of this bio; you're gonna have to listen in to see what the hell is up with this broad. It's worth noting that although she could drink James under the table, she is not quite the party animal the other four are.
