According to a reddit post, Rockstar actually set up a number for people to call and rant about issues with the USA. Those calls would eventually end up here on the radio station.
He was a legendary comic, a "comedians' comedian". The greatest comics all had the best things to say about the dude. He had a uniquely sharp wit and insight, almost a foresight into things. And some wacky shit too, don't get me wrong lol. Check out his special "Elephant in the Room" or his appearances on old OandA.
The worrying bit is reading all these comments about how good it is and you don't know if they're commenting on how good the satire is or they actually think it's real and agree with it... And you're too afraid to ask
@@1206549 well alot of the call-ins are real people calling a real number rockstar had, so they could add them to this station. so yeah some of it is real bro
It's amazing how well produced this is. After all, Sam Houser even said GTA in itself is supposed to be an entire mockery of American culture, and indeed it is. Amazing how much of this radio is accurate with its counterparts. Much of the context talked about in this radio bit are still very relevant today. Maybe they're trying to tell us something? Lol
When the game was being developed they asked people to call a number and rant about what they felt was wrong with America. The best calls were added to the game. It feels so real because it literally is.
"She's had a hard life.. She suffered like Mandela, now it's time to try get her out and make her leader." 😂 As someone from South Africa I find it interesting that they incorporated other countries and their politicians into the jokes. GTA IV has the best talk radio stations.
The radio court room always killed me. "...ao I slashed her tires, broke all the windows and took a shit in the air filter" and the judge says "YOU TOOK A SHIT IN THE AIR FILTER?! Give it up, my man. That's cold. That's cold."
This is why gta is one of the best game series of all time. The effort they put into the RADIO STATIONS!!!! Most people probably won’t even be paying attention to the radio. The attention to detail is on point🔥🔥
GTA4 had the best radio stations of all them, imo. San Andreas had some good music but GTA4 had the funniest talk radio. There were so many times I muttered "wtf did they just say?"
1:48 "Thanks. I really learned a lot while doing this film. I learned how to be a self absorbed and materialistic prick! And the director taught me how to roll a joint."
This is my favorite radio station of all the games. I hope it makes a comeback - r.i.p patrice o neal- sucks we wont have O&A guest on it in the future
Why Shold-I especially the transgender part now. Since apparently he watches it now, and makes him feel good but still says it’s bad like Richard Bastion lol
The team members at Rockstar must've done tons of research to make a satirical radio show this believable (even though it throws in moments of ultra-dark satire and blatant self-awareness). On one hand, I applaud them and the voice actors for their dedication. On the other hand, it frightens me to think that this is all a parody of certain radio shows in real life. Call me priggish but I'm relieved that the GTA radio talkshows are fictional. X_x
@radf imagine how fragile you'd have to be to get triggered by a radio talk show parody that was made for a video game that came out 12 years ago. ❄️❄️❄️
No, it wasn't a parody. These are real people who called into a number and ranted about what they thought was wrong with America. Then Rockstar took the best calls and made them into this station.
I played this game for years and I have never ever heard this channel.. I'm ashamed.. However unlike you, I can listen to this for the first time in 2016.
Awwww shit! What is my wife gonna think NOW when she walks n the room and I’m listening 2 what sounds like a long radio commercial just WAITING 2 hear Patrice’s voice! 🤦🏽♂️ Why did I have 2 find out this late he was on gta4?
I searched "worst GTA radio stations" and this was the first video to show up, I loved WKTT lol. I was looking for an opinon on the stations lol. For example I think MSX FM is awful but its so damn stupid its funny. Same with Vladivistok honestley. I'm an irishman ya think i know russian lol. I listen to those stations ironically.

Wait what for reals
I would believe this, if the first call didn't literally say Miabatsu, which is an in-universe car brand
Patrice O'neal is one of the voices.
@@xweert711 at 16:50 is the real call
@@xweert711 also if you want more proof ua-cam.com/video/et49RdkS7Jg/v-deo.html
Talk radio stations are the best part of the radio in the Grand Theft Auto series.
Hell yea! I split my sides on some of the dialog.
GTA 4 had the best talk radio by far.
Yup!
I always listen to them when im studying, its become like a ritual by now :D
personally i preferred VCPR in vice city. I'll never forget "Of course I'm pregnant, what'd you think I was just some fat bitch?"
27:20 Patrice O'neal. Rip big guy, we need you more than ever.
Hey thank you for pointing out the point in the video where he was. Was looking for that part.
Beni Flaherty one of the voice actors died? shit that sucks
I agree
He was a legendary comic, a "comedians' comedian". The greatest comics all had the best things to say about the dude. He had a uniquely sharp wit and insight, almost a foresight into things. And some wacky shit too, don't get me wrong lol. Check out his special "Elephant in the Room" or his appearances on old OandA.
He's there from minute 1 actually
In 2008, this was just satire...
Now, it's basically reality (well, on Twitter and on other social media at least)
Facts

It was satire of radio stations which were exactly like this lol
This hits differently 12 years later in 2020
Still funny as shit, tho.
I listin to this in the car. Laszlow is funny as fuck with shoving that guy's head in the hotdog water
@@diemdeboef451 linger longer!
Not really. I say it aged well!
it’s so accurate it’s scary
i completely missed how brilliant this was when i was a kid
I fucking didnt. I grew up on talk radio, and i always knew this awesome.
@37:51 "YOU SHIT IN THE AIR FILTER?!" This always gets me cracking up... so petty..
Omg I laughed my ass off. I laughed for 20 mins straight. Lord 😂😂😂😂😂😂
8:10 "2 Damage! 2 Damage! Check that ass in the air, troll - I'm about to get aggro!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just or Unjust never gets old
Matt Canon yeah it is
Matt Canon Its part of the legal process.
+Matt Canon RELEASE THE LIONS!
+Sam Russell oww what the fuck
I wish they would make more Just or Unjust and put it in GTAV
This radio station was so ahead of its time
Satire in 2008. Reality in 2020.

This is Jewish culture not American culture.

Alexander Vlietstra everyone needs a truck who doesn't use the bed
I would buy a PS3 game that did nothing but play these commercials.
Brad Monastiere me too

Vincent Valentine that woukd be awesome
I would buy a ps5 to listen to this.

@@briane.4181 GTA vice City has one the best sound tracks ...all 70s and 80s popular songs..
GTA has become indistinguishable from real life. I have complex feelings about that. An absolute work of Art
Thank goodness I love GTA.
This is why I still think GTA 4 is the best GTA of the series haha
Its been 11 years since this came out and it's still true.
GTA is the only underrated GTA game because many fans won't admit it's the best.
Fun fact: the callers in the Richard bastion Show were player submissions that rockstar held during 2007.
Yep! Rockstar asked fans “what’s wrong with America?”.
Its a perfect satire of political talk radio. Its my favorite show on the station.
1:48 "Thanks. I really learned a lot while doing this film. I learned how to be a self absorbed and materialistic prick! And the director taught me how to roll a joint."
That parts fucking hilarious 😂😆😂
I'm sure even in 10 or 20 years people will say "this is still true today"
It's 2018.
Officially 10 years since this came out.
And yes....this shit is so relatable to the bullshit that is going on today. Jesus fucking christ.
Go listen to Chatterbox FM from GTA 3, sadly it's still hold up today and have been produced in 2001.
Rated MK17 lol dumbass
2021... still the same.
2022 and it’s basically reality now lol
2023 and this is still absolute gold, got to listen to a radio station in a game to hear truth.
16:59 lmao Ben Shapiro
LOL maybe
It’s not, but I know who this is. Worked with the guy who called this one in, he’s actually credited on IMDB for this call.
@@samm9397 bruh who is he
@@isometricexercise4953 not gonna dox anyone lol. But I swear I can confirm this is not Ben Shapiro lol.
@@samm9397 for the longest time I firmly believed this was Shapiro, kinda let down knowing it isn’t haha
Holy fuck, Patrice... Jimmy... references to WOW stickers and being fired for a church stunt... this station was heavily influenced by O&A!
Jade Prout don't forget fez too
Jade Prout Yup Lazlow took care of the O&A crew. I love Ant's Pisswasser beer commercials.
glyde69 classic
I think Erock is a caller as well
O&A are first in the special thanks section of the GTA IV booklet. Lazlow and them were close.
Easily the funniest radio show in GTA history. I could never stop listening, even once I had heard everything before.
6:23 if you want to skip the GTA celebrity gossip
"And I get to wear sunglasses INdoors, plus I've started doing COKE."
And the director taught me how to roll a joint.
I feel like that's the least troubling thing he talked about lol
amazing that Ricky did this , gta 4 radios stations are comedy gold
I was watching a Patrice O'Neal stand-up and had to look this guy up. After much searching, I found out he played a character in GTA IV
17:50 2021 Biden must listen to this.
😳
17:20 That for my money is REAL FREEDOM! Knowing that you’re ALWAYS RIGHT, it’s like life is a party that’s never going to end!
Jason Sudeikis is genius on this one
i love how they parodized Rush Limbaugh
Sounds like an Alex Jones/ Steven Crowder podcast
JAMamation you strange animal
The old school rockstar devs did like their O&A
Is that Jason Sudeikis?
So nonsensical.
Its literally based Alex Jones and Rush.
What the fuck this is hillarious. This is so ahead of it's time
This played in all the ammunation stores.
I didn't realize Rush Limbaugh allowed his radio show in Gta IV.
3:40 damn, I didn't know Ricky Gervais was on GTA IV! lmaoooo
he also appears at the comedy club sometimes
That was cool
15:56 ish and 43:09 ish for Richard Bastion
I just drive around listening to this. The whole station is awesome.
Patrice O' Neal is at 27:40 playing as Jefferon James
fun fact: they legit set up a phone number for people to call and complain. their favorites went to the game
This radio station alone is the reason why GTA 4 is better than GTA 5 it made me laugh so hard 🤣
This is amazing. Just when I think I've heard all Patrice there's this.
31:28 Katt.... lmao! “All kids should be on some sort of pharmaceutical” 🤪🤪🤪
39:23 “How you gonna believe in something you can’t see”
Me: Amen! Oh wait...
Who fought the best wars? Men! Who make the best murderers...men! Who invented the plague...men! 11;03 kills me all the time
Man I played this game so much, over 1k hours. I just played it so much. I've heard this many times along with everything else haha.
This is my favorite radio station of all the games. I hope it makes a comeback - r.i.p patrice o neal- sucks we wont have O&A guest on it in the future
Do you pee siting down?!!
Guess who wrote that line.
John Marston says this in RDR too
I do
Real men pee sitting down. Unironically.
A triangle is not manly!
fun fact!

This station holds up way too well 😂
I like a little head, usually after dinner
I read this right when he said it
Stop doing that, would ya
@@onlyifusayplz5407 trippy i read that as soon as he said it
holy shit had no idea patrice did voice work on this game
Rush Limaugh passed away today. I guess he was the inspiration of this station.
It's shocking how much more conservative talk radio sounds like Richard Bastion than it did in '08.
first time i listen to a Alex Jones show, i just laugh and thought of this. (and im conservative)
Well 2016 liberals make Public Liberty Radio seem right wing by comparison.
The entire planet seems to have gone insane tbh
Why Shold-I especially the transgender part now. Since apparently he watches it now, and makes him feel good but still says it’s bad like Richard Bastion lol

Is that Fez Whatley and Patrice Oneal?!!
+Freddy Ferguson Oh shit Jimmy too?!
Ive heard this so many times and only just realized that it was lil yimmy
East Side Dave is the stunt boy for Martin Serious, too
Lil Jimmy Norton is Chuck in one of the court episodes
I love how shit just totally fell apart with Richard Bastion at around 25:00.
Just or Unjust... Hilarious. I love these! This and Lazlo
Is it just me or does the stuff in this radio seem more relevant now then it did close to 11 years ago?
Patrice playing as himself playing as a radio talk show host. Haha I never noticed he was in this but I remember this show because of the gay guy.
I know right I used to listen to this on my xbox 360 in 2012 when I used to live in Elkhart Indiana.

@radfokay. So is it a parody? Or is it saying that all republicans explicitly belive "America is becoming a Vietnamese transexual women?"
