Reading about how Tom is preparing legal action against the church is like reading about how the pole dancers are trying to make pole dancing an Olympic sport.

Come on, you guys. The pole dancers are really serious this time!

Well, on the positive side, at least Steve Benson can feel important again while delivering vague "insider" knowledge from "too secret to discuss" converstions with Tom Phillips about the new "surprise" to his groupies on RFM who like to keep a box of Kleenix and jar of Vaseline handy for anything Benson posts.
Tapirs... Yeah... That's the ticket!

Kind of puts Benson as another pea in the pod where BKP is--too sacred too discuss.

So is it your prediction this will happen in October?


My prediction is that this will go less well than it did first time around, as for when....who knows.


Just checking. Seems like you're the only one saying October.

I think Tom's notoriety threatened Steve's status as cock of the walk over there, so he had to attach himself to it somehow and try to share the glory. Like he did with his grandfather.

I liked Tom and found his podcast to be fascinating, but his unhinged actions have only made all of it seem like rantings of a delusional fool. Shame.

This. I have the feeling the douche stevie has been glomming onto anything these days to stay relevant as is his usual MO.
