"Nah, I really can't say I have."
|

"Hell, ya aught to try it sometime, I tell ya man, it's good eating. Possum, racoon, even zebra meat, cooks up pretty good."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Er, do you have anything else to say, or..?"
|
| Gast:
|
"Pigeons. Pigeons are good too. Sometimes, they come with notes attached... It's like... A fortune cookie with wings.[1] Squirrels! Squirrels is not so good, they... Taste like goldfish... Meat's real stringy, ya know what I mean?"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Erm, actually, I can't say that I do... Uhm... But if I did eat too much squirrel and put on a few extra pounds, I'd use the Dormatron! Unlike those other exercise machines that require you to be awake, the Dormatron actually exercises you over night. Let’s learn a little bit more about it."

"Huh? Of course it's my real name!"
|
| Gast:

"Are you Hungarian?"

"Heh, no, I'm from up-state."
|
| Gast:

"Are you sure that's not a fake radio name, like Andy or Bobo? I thought all those radio people had fake names!"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Do you have a question, or do you wanna just sit here all day and talk about my name?"
|
| Gast:
|
"No... That’s it. Love the show, Lazlow. Or Mark. Or John, or Beverly, whatever your name is."

|
| Lazlow:
|
"Okay, and speaking of impossible, Jane from Cedar Grove is on the line, and she wants to talk about how difficult it is being a parent today. Hello Jane."
|
| Jane:
|
"Hi Lazlow, I love the show, I'm a first time caller. I wanted to say something about these videogames, they are warping our kids minds. My sons dog, Bugle, got hit by a truck, and he says "Mummy, mummy, where's the reset button?" Kids these days, they think life is a game. Well, it's not a game Lazlow. It is very, very serious. I let my kid play video games, and now, he runs around the house looking for gold coins. This is teaching our children to go chase money. My eldest has been playing this new videogame, called Pogo the Monkey..."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Yeah, I've heard of that one."
|
| Jane:
|
"The shop teacher called me today, and Sam made a home-made banana cannon in shop class, and was lobbing them across the street at a fast-food restaurant. And it's all because of videogames. Lazlow, life does not have a reset button!"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Right, but this show does..." *klik* "I love that button."
|
| Lazlow:

"I wanna talk about that SPANK stuff. People say it's bad for you. It's not bad for you at all. Why aren't you talking? Oh, you think I'm strange? Am I on the air? Hello? Answer me, you pansy!"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Erm... What's your question?"
|
| Gast:
|
"SPANK! Spank SPANK! SPANK!"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Hehe, what about it? I mean, that's not really a question. Questions usually start with words like 'how', and 'why', and they end with your voice going up like this!"
|
| Gast:
|
"Don't mock me! I know where you work! You're just like all the rest!"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"How's that?"
|
| Gast:
|
"Word is evil dude. And toothpaste, they use it to control us. Why do you think all the commercials tell you to brush twice a day? I've read books!"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"And what book have you been reading that tells you that toothpaste is evil?"
|
| Gast:
|
"Dentures: the Devil, and the Great Cavity Cover-up, by Jay Phillip Higgenbottom. If you'd seen what I'd seen, and if you've heard what I've heard, you'd never brush your teeth again!"
|
| Lazlow:

"I suppose you're one of those people that says diet soda makes you go crazy later in life..?"
|
| Gast:

"I told you before man, don't mock me! My taxes pay your salary, you pansy!"

And on that note, it's been two full minutes since a commercial, but I'd like to say, if anyone else is stressed, might I recommend Equinox from Zaibatsu Pharmaceuticals! We'll be back after these important messages."

"LIBERTY CITY COCKS RULE!!!"

"Aah, that's lovely, thanks. Next caller, you're on Chatterbox."

|
| Lazlow:
|
"Okay, great, another lunatic. Hello, next caller, you are on Chatterbox."
|
| Gast:
|
"Yeah, you were talking about short guys and attitudes. Well, you know you'd have an attitude too if you couldn't reach the frigging cheesy swirls at the grocery store."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Yeah, I mean, sometimes it seems like the whole world's against you, I mean..."
|
| Gast:
|
"You know, we're not talking about you! What kind of ego-maniac are you? You got your own show, how about letting other people talk for a change? You're all the same, you giants: "Oh, I'm tall, I'm so important, listen to me talk about my tall stuff. I think I'll put this on the top shelf. Hey, what's the weather like down there? How's it going short-stuff? Can you get that, you're closer. Why so sad, pee-wee?" Who do you think you are? Short people are people too!"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"All right, another awardwinning show on Chatterbox. Today we're talking about anything, it seems. If you have something to say about anything, call now. Hello caller. You're on Chatterbox"
|
| Gast:
|
"Yeah, hi, I love the show, love hearing people's opinions, that's what made this country great. People. And opinions. And stuff. Most of all, guns. I've had it with people whining about guns kill people, guns don't kill people, death kills people. Ask a doctor, it's a medical fact. You can't die from a bullet. You can die from a cardiac arrest or organ failure or a major hemorrhage, small piece of metal ain't the problem. Besides, I only use my machinegun in the safety of my own home and car. I ain't hurting nobody. And countries that don't have guns ain't American."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"You know that's a really good point. Countries that don't have guns aren't American. You know, if more people had guns, we'd have less shootings in this country."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"All right, we're going over here to line 2, hello caller, you are on Chatterbox."
|
| Gast:
|
"Yeah, I'd like to say something about taxes."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"You mean the Lone Star State?" [4]
|
| Gast:
|
"No, taxes. Well, you know, look, taxes are really wrong. My father worked his whole life, he played the lottery, and now the state wants him to pay taxes on the money he wins from that stuff. Buy your own lottery tickets, you know, hey?"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Good point, that's a lesson to us all."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"All right, hello, you are on Chatterbox."

| Freddy:
|
"Hello Lazlow, I'm a first time caller. I recently moved to Liberty City from Hampshire, in England."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Oh really? How do you like it? I mean, is it hard to get used to the language? You speak English pretty good!"
|
| Freddy:
|
"Oh thank you Lazlow. Yes, I do like it here. There's one thing though that's very different and rather worrying. When I was a boy in England, I had a nanny. She was very strict, Lazlow."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Yeah, well, I mean there's excellent child-care here in America, eh... You know?"
|
| Freddy:
|
"Well, well I'm sure. But, but the thing is Lazlow, when, when, when I was a naughty boy, I, I, I... I would get spanked. Nanny... Nanny would spank me, when I was naughty, and now... Now Freddy needs a nanny, because when Freddy's naughty, he needs to get spanked."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"Well, there's some child psychologists, who'd probably say that spanking can be harmful to a child's emotional development."
|
| Freddy:
|
"Ab... Ab... Absolute rot, Lazlow. It's lovely. Freddy needs a nanny. He needs a nanny Lazlow, because Freddy's been a very naughty boy."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"How old is your son?"
|
| Freddy:
|
"Excuse me?"
|
| Lazlow:
|
"How old is your son?"
|
| Freddy:
|
"I don't have children! I can't stand the little brats! But Freddy needs a nanny..."
|
| Lazlow:
|
"All right, that's enough of him! God, who gave this guy a green card?"
