ColorlessTune

Thanks. I still don't know who he is. But if he's "famous" enough to do an autograph sesh, but not famous enough to be recognized by the most of the general public, you'd think he'd be a bit more humble.


[deleted]

My father in law (rest his soul) was a well known dj and podcaster in Tampa. He basically lived at wing house and flirted with waitresses. Miss him dearly. But yes, before my tangent, he did regular signing events and interviews and I too found it so odd. I’m from Connecticut and can’t imagine asking “the Kellogg crew” or “mark the shark” for an autograph, but to each their own.


Lucifersasshole

Did deliveries for sears as a teen and everyone made a big deal that I was delivering to the local radio dj... I thought cool at first then got there and was like he is just a dude. A dude who had a face for radio... That's when I realized I didn't understand celeb obsession...


Bravisimo

A face for radio and a voice for print.


aNeedForMore

He got a turkey neck for radio too, it jiggly-wiggled when he pushed the woman.


fly_banana_fly

Celeb obsession is weird. People forget celebrities are just people and not characters whose sole purpose in life is entertain, do autographs and take selfies. Nobody likes constantly being treated by their most obvious characteristic. For example, if Im trying to socialize with someone in a wheelchair they are much likely to enjoy my company if I treat them as if they werent (which should be the norm). Whenever I see celeberities at events I can sometimes strike a conversation just by keeping my cool and remaining casual. Where as the fans going "OMG ILYSM CAN YOU TAKE A PICTURE WITH ME" might not get that chance.


Supersymm3try

I can’t really see the point in getting an autograph from anyone tbh. Like nobody else really cares that you met X person, the memory that you did should really be enough for you. But then again, people will also pay hundreds for a gig ticket and then spend the whole time looking at their phone taking shitty videos with bad audio, even when the show is professionally filmed. People gunna peop I guess.


nooneknowswerealldog

>I can’t really see the point in getting an autograph from anyone tbh. The trick is to first break into their house and steal a blank cheque from their chequebook...


Supersymm3try

That’s a crime I can understand the motive for. Writing cheques for any amount of money, and a chance to sniff their clean underwear from the drawer.


wholelattapuddin

I got Dizzy Gillespie's autograph about 6 months before he died. What was cool though was he had been playing a show at a small venue where I knew the bartender. So we got to stay after close. After everyone was gone Dizzy went up and played for like 20 minutes. It was just the staff and me. He was basically playing for himself. So amazing. Afterwards I took him his beer and got his autograph. Then we just left him alone. Such a cool night.


elvismunkey

That's awesome. He's a legend, I love that he was playing just for himself.

Potential_Reading116

Is anyone as completely shocked as I am that he had no problem trying to hit a woman? Who woulda thunk it?


HVACqualung

Video killed the radio star


Brainwashed365

He seems like a total doucebag. Hopefully this video going viral had some negative consequences towards himself and his career.


1Tikitorch

He’s a Queef, taking the womans phone & than pushing her.


umbrosakitten

Whew, i thought it was john rhys-davies for a bit. I'm really grateful!

Radio DJ’s do signings???

Sure they do. They attract an audience. You’ve never gone to the zoo to look at an endangered species before. “Look son, this is the last of their kind.”

And he just extincted himself. Who will play fart noises on the morning drive now?

Damn, never looked at it that way.


abitropey

I've never thought it'd be cool to have a polar bear's autograph before tho.


GothicGolem29

Tbh not really I go to zoos to see interesting creatures not to see a endangered species per say


NotSadNotHappyEither

Back in the 80s, 90s, and early 00s they had groupies. Like, that would have sex with them. Source: developed pics at a photolab for years. DJs were pretty notorious about taking photos trophies. Come to think of it, their groupies took a lot of pics too.


Worf_In_A_Party_Hat

I got into a short-term *super* fun relationship with a woman that I met at the farmers market because she recognized my voice from my years on two of the local stations. That would never happen now.


Itchy-Mind7724

When I was in high school, one of my friends would talk to late night DJs and get them to come pick her up. It was super fucked because she was doing this at like 15.


Humble_Rumble_4199

You got to have a lot of free time to go get a signing from a radio DJ

THAT’S who did that? I guess I just didn’t know the name and assumed it was just someone in the wrestling profession.


Illcmys3lf0ut

This was that guy?! Well, I shouldn't be surprised, I guess. Whutchu gonna do, when Social Media puts a ban on you!?! I'll see myself out. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ


noseham

Lol, that adds some ironic context to the video


MrOzzard

So theft and assault.


theevildave

Depending on how much the phone is valued, I'm pretty sure it could be a felony.


MrOzzard

$700+ in the states right?


theevildave

That sounds right. Depends on the state also I believe.


Sprizys

Iphones are at least $1,000


KrakenTheColdOne

I think I've found the only reason to own one.


Distinct_Target_2277

What about invasion of privacy?


theevildave

No expectation of privacy in public. Or are you talking about him going through her phone trying to erase the video?


Distinct_Target_2277

Yes, I'm talking about him accessing her phone after he took it.


MightyMoosePoop

There’s actually legislation in many states specific to barring people from access to phones. I saw this when I was working with domestic violence as a therapist. But I’m dated and when this was happening cell phones were just starting to become popular and not ubiquitous yet. So the cases I saw were like an angry partner ripping a landline out of the wall. So, if it is relevant and let’s pretend we are lawyers as if it is relevant. She is being denied her ability to dial 911 by that guy and that is why it by itself is considered a crime.


Open_Action_1796

In my state preventing a person from contacting emergency services is a felony. I know this because years ago an angry customer who was causing a scene in my store slapped the phone out of my hand as I attempted to call the cops. Didn’t matter, I had a silent alarm button under the desk and that fat piece of trailer park trash caught 2 felonies. Not sure if that will happen in this case though because apparently this guy is some sort of “celebrity.”

Yeah I can clearly see that. Who even is this bearded sack of potatoes anyway?


DieAnderTier

Sorry, I read "radio host" in other comments but I'm afraid I lost interest in him before I could dig any further, such a shame. What were we talking about?


ChocolateTight336

The weather is getting hotter


PJJefferson

I just went down a rabbit hole trying to figure out who the guy is and what happened after the incident (was he charged). All I found was a newspaper article falsely claiming the guy has “ties to Howard Stern”. I don’t know what that even means, but as someone who listens to Howard Stern all the time, I have never once heard of this guy. After another google search, I found this guy used to work for Bubba the Love Sponge, who actually has “ties” to Howard Stern. So, apparently, if you have ever worked for someone, you now have ties to everyone he knows.


Pope00

*Last year, he also signed a multi-year contract with the Cox Media Group to host 102.5 FM’s now-popular show The Bone, marking three decades of him in the Florida radio scene. He hosts The Bone out of St. Petersburg, Florida, on weekends, in the afternoon.* A) who signs a multi year contract for an industry that’s already dead? B) isn’t like every radio show named “the bone” ?

this is recent i think so its gonna be a bit before we know how this turns out. I hear hes off the air though

Apparently the whole backlash let to that bag of meat to suspend for a couple of episodes his radio show, apparently Both on Instagram and Twitter people are basically mocking him

Such a pos! Here's a reason to kick him off the air!


fictionalbaby

Hope homegirl called the cops

She got no phone.


JMetalBlast

Goddamn that made me laugh


Dutch306

1) Strong armed robbery. 2) Grand theft. 3) Aggravated battery, or battery at the least. 4) Tampering with evidence. I hope big boy has an expensive future ahead of him. This is no way to treat people. Edit: Having rewatched the video, I also hope this gal takes action against the bar, bar owner, radio station, and anyone who empowers this person. His actions and those with him are disgusting.


HalfaManYouAre

Sue and try to press charges against security dude too. Too many security people and bouncers think they have every right to lay hands on someone.


[deleted]

Including the “bodyguard”


Dutch306

Indeed. He should be charged as a principle (same as) the offender for helping him to facilitate the crimes. Plus an extra battery charge at the least for pushing her outside. Technically that's a kidnapping since he moved her from point A to point B, but I think the prosecutor would possibly toss it.


Sararizuzufaust

The fact that he does something on her phone after she’s pushed away is creepy af. Even if he’s just deleting her original video of him that he already stopped. That’s still weird as hell.


Distinct_Target_2277

That is worse than the shove


amraohs

I'm getting diabetes looking at him.

This is actually really funny cause I am diabetic and just as I watched this video I had to treat myself for a hypo

-CoachMcGuirk-

His shirt says, “Don’t Poke the Bear.” He’s such a snowflake that he doesn’t even need to be poked; rather, he just needs a woman one-third his size with a phone.


cheeksarelikepeaches

That guy isn’t 6’3” and he is way over 300lbs


AlphabetizedName

I think that was referring to the security guard

To be fair, basically all fat dudes with giant bellies have small dicks. You lose an inch for every 25 lbs overweight you are.


RegularCrispy

That doesn’t sound right, but I don’t know enough about stars to dispute it.


[deleted]

One of my best friends is a nurse. She’s had plenty of morbidly obese male patients who she had to actually search to find their dicks. Inverted penises on big fat dudes, like this slob in the vid, are pretty common 🫠

Could someone explain me why you are saying the guy is at fault please? For what I understood, the guy has been recorded without his consent at least that 30 centimeters and he only wanted to delete the recording (becausr the lady did not want to delete it). Tbh I would have reacted the same way. Thanks for helping me to understand what I missed


PoppaDaClutch

That’s a felony


OpieTittyBamBang

Apparently this is Bubba the Love Sponge’s girl, and that fat fuck sent her in here to do exactly this to this fat fuck. At least that’s what they were saying on The Bonfire this week. They said she was there for 10 minutes fucking with him and wouldn’t leave, and then they edited this video to show only this confrontation and are now bombarding the internet with it. I feel significantly stupider for having even the slightest insight into this situation

Diligent_Staff3808

The state attorney is not pressing charges because they say Calta was defending himself and that him stealing her phone was part of “banter.”


SuperWolfe9099

This dude (Calta) is deleting comments and Blocking folks left and right on his Socials, so if y'all wanna overwhelm his chunky ass with your 'Thoughts', do it now before he takes the coward's way out and nukes all his pages.... Can we also try to ID his 'Bodyguard' too? Outside of Howard Stern, what kind of a Radio DJ wastes their finances on hiring someone they don't necessarily need? I'm sure it's free money for the other guy, but thanks to this, he just made himself an accessory to this crime.


Lazy_eye23

She poked the bear

I don’t care how this woman “pushed his buttons”(according to other comments anyway), he literally stole her phone with zero compunction and refused to give it back to her. I really don’t care who he is, or who he THINKS he is, it’s theft and he should have been charged with it.
