This…is not what I thought Jon Ronson's next career move would be. That said, I appreciated the gravitas he brought to this. It's like David Attenborough narrating a documentary on the Chocolate Rain guy.
Also, if you look up 'Vanilla' in the dictionary, you will see a picture of Jon Ronson.
You guys, I didn't even know you had Jon Ronson. I clicked on the link thinking it wouldn't be the same one AND IT ONLY BLOODY IS. I have a podcast of him being interviewed and his son is there too and his son is possibly the cutest. ever.
@rayray "everybody make some noise, all the way from GREAT BRITAIN! yeah yeah i'm on conan!"
@Jane Marie GREAT BRITAIN! Amazing.
This is a long way from Tony at Broadmoor. But I could listen to Jon Ronson's voice allllllllll day. What.
@Iliana@twitter Ok, after watching the whole thing, maybe it isn't a long way.
@Iliana@twitter I made the mistake of listening to that episode of This American Life one night when I was the only person in my (usually full) house. Cue lots of whimpering and hiding under the duvet. I am now unfortunately ill-disposed towards men named Tony.
I made a O_O face the entire time I listened to the song they wrote for him (IN ONE DAY).
Ugh, that Patrice guy is one of those people who say the simplest, most obvious things like they are The Profound Truth. "See, when I'm making cereal, what I do is- I- first off, I get a bowl. From the cupboard. Then. Then I have to sit, and what I have to do is, think. Which cereal. There are many cereals, but which cereal do I want. Do I want. Not you. Not him. Not your neighbor. Me. I. Yo. The next step in the process is to…" SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT THE HELL UP
Patrice Wilson is a lyrical genius.
Jon Ronson could easily charge wealthy NPR listeners $4000 a pop to make and narrate brief vanity documentaries about them. I think this is why Patrice Wilson connected so strongly with him.
@viola bruise Kind of all I care about is Jon Ronson's sneaky hilarious delivery and his owly glasses and slouchy walk… what are his thoughts on my life? I'd pay $4,000 to find out.
@viola bruise Truth x 1000
@viola bruise brilliannnnt!!!
Maybe it's the box wine talking, but whenever I see/hear Jon Ronson, all I can think is that I need him to interview Ron Swanson. Jon Ronson on Ron Swanson. That's something I'd like/pay to see.
Also, from now on, I'm going to start all my comments with "Maybe it's the box wine talking…"
@ironhoneybee To quote a young Liz Lemon: It's funny cause it's true.
"I like apples" is such a gripping story!
The expression on Jon Ronson's face while he's listening to this song. It's sort of a combination of "amused" and "UTTER HORROR AND DISBELIEF."
@Yahtzii SWOON
eeeee Jon Ronson! I had the same reaction like, 'you mean Jon RONSON Jon Ronson?!'
I wish it was Ron Swanson rather than Jon Ronson.
yah so that stupid conan song has been stuck in my head all morning.
COME ON.
