Jon Ronson - For The Love of Big Brother 1

[HighgateSamphire]

Excellent furniture, just excellent. I want an orange chair like that, the curtains I'm not keen on but the chairs... Please tell me that you've got the one with the argumentative aquarists, as it's a joy to behold in comedy terms. I loved C4 then.

[sugarydonkey]

Fruit loops. Ronson is very good at asking difficult questions in a nice way. And not mocking. I would just mock them for being absolute fruit loops.

[TheGaz76]

i loved this show

[Octavius0]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I used to watch this along with a pyramid of Bass Ale.

Excellent!

[HumanEnergy47]

mobile phones are the same as the "bugs" they put on you that track you.

[librathene]

@HumanEnergy47 right.

[PompamooseMagique]

LOL at Ronson just smoking away... jeez, those were the days!

[bodnotbod]

I love the way these people are so matter of fact about their theories when they completely barking mad. "At the flick of a switch..." Jeez.

[hyperseauton]

Smoking on tv? Those WERE the days.

[NeilRob1985]

I totally identify with Ronson. But is he a shill or just stupid? Is he a 8 foot tall reptillian?

[beefygoblin]

@NeilRob1985

Well he is a jew. . .

lol No eight foot tall reptiles.

Stop with the conspiracy theories. They arn't funny anymore.

[bodnotbod]

@NeilRob1985 He's no shill. He's rational. I love conspiracy theories and can spend days listening to them. They're fascinating. But they're all rubbish.

[faunflynn]

All this stuff is in Ingo Swan's 1978 book starfire.

He ran the cia remote viewing ops out of SRI..

Coincidence ? Ithink not, but he was writing fiction.

ie. Wish fullfillment, what he wished that he could do but alas couldn't.

I met him in malta in 1981 just after reading the book, he was a hoot.

8.47 - I think I know why their researchers were waking up with hangovers.

[crippledfonz]

tim rifat is nearly as cool as smoking cigs on TV

[funrunkel]

rifat is so awesome...

[spuspud]

Brilliant, I remember when this was on first, them were the days...

[muckletoon]

ro0nson used be kinda interesting but over time he's evolved into a bitter old media hoor who can barely write his own name.

[antiquax]

Hi Louis !!!

[ofcoursehesthefarmer]

@muckletoon I've looked at your youtube and you sound like a bit of a loon (the twins towers were not blown up by muslims), but thanks for uploading this programme.

[phantomdoodler]

@muckletoon how did you come to that odd conclusion? have you read The Psychopath Test?

[sugarydonkey]

whack jobs

[L0K3]

i remember these...great stuff

Hard to imagine being allowed today

[loveupskirts]

i know, and it was late night right?. imagine smart tv these days

[ripple1983]

Anyone got death in santaland?

[milkypigeon]

I love Jon Ronson.He's lovely.

Brains and looks. Perfect.

[ApexBozo]

looks?

[milkypigeon]

He might not be conventionally "hot" but he looks a tiny bit like John Lennon in my opinion.And he was sweet. Brains are better than looks anyway, I think. I'd rather go out with Jon rather than Brad Pitt, he'd only talk about himself...

[ApexBozo]

fair enough... i don't know what you people (the fairer sex) see in men... all i know is i seem to be a little short of it lol

[xdyingfetusx69]

he is a dumb ass shill

[MEpianist]

He criticizes your opinion - ergo he is a shill for the enemy. Good logic.

[xdyingfetusx69]

Uh.. when did I say he was part of the enemy... you dont' have to part of them to be a shill... you just have to be brainwashed and believe in the lies... and its not my opinion either, there are FACTS out there

You can go to my channel to watch the non-stop PLAYLIST of this programme + other related playlists.

I remember this show when it was broadcast on TV in the 1990s. My recording cut out with about 5 minutes left, too!

Great post, muckletoon.

[tomives1985]

smoking on tv , those were the days

[philgottengains]

Wow! I didn't realise he was such a tart! Fuck off Ronson.

[JohnnyThreePants]

I think it's quite a nice colour. It's got character to it.

NM

[JohnnyThreePants]

Wowzers. I remember this series. His hair is awesome, is it not?

[muckletoon]

Not a fan of ginger myself.

[librathene]

@muckletoon what's with the Ronno beef Muckletoon?
