  • Bobby Neumann Waste of Time & Space

    The epically mediocre Bobby Neumann is a worthless, spineless, puppet. His “talent?” Using 40 thousand words to non explain a topic, where three sentences would do. He is horrible. A waste of a human being and time. Who gave this jerkoff a microphone. This show has devolved into nothing. Listening to this horror show should be employed by the military in lieu of waterboarding. Pure torture.
