Bobby ruined the show
Bobby has made the show unlistenable, his non stop lies and bootlicking are just getting sad…
For Christ’s sake, do us a favor and stop him from singing. Just move to something else, and at the very least stop the encouragement. Big Jay can almost do no wrong (the real anger at his GF and Jacob is awkward) but Bobby honestly needs less air time.
Jay should have his own show
I used to love the show but Bob is the worst.
