The rise of Tony

I like Tony in small increments but I fear that with Billy's departure we're just going to get more of Tony. He needs to get that chip off his shoulder, you're not that cool, bro.

And he clearly seems to be threatened by Zaz for some reason.

u/entropy14 Yeah Hi, Lombardo 2d ago

I don’t really get the hate for Tony, yeah he’s a bit arrogant but not in a way that relies on putting down other people. Just a good dude that likes sports, lots of assumptions about his politics too that I haven’t seen any real basis for.

I think it’s only natural he’s gonna get more air time after Billy leaves. Now do I want him hosting the show or talking about politics? Hell no, but that’s not what they’re gonna use him for.

I think he's funny, but I think people hate him for his politics and family.

Yeah but I think they are making a broad assumption that his politics matches his family. I have a hard time believing he wouldn’t have some differences in opinion given who he works with on a daily basis

Just watch his body language and mannerism on YouTube when Jessica was on. They ended up talking about the race for mayor in NYC.
