[edit] Biography
Gonzalez grew up in Dallas, Texas, graduating from Moisés E. Molina High School in 2003. After graduation, he attended Mountain View College, but dropped out to became an intern at Kidd Kraddick in the Morning, a radio show in Dallas. After meeting Rich Shertenleib, Gonzalez moved to Boston, Massachusetts, to join The Toucher and Rich Show.[1]
Many gags have focused on Toucher and Rich trying to find Gonzalez a girlfriend and allowing him to interview celebrities in his typical tongue-tied fashion. In one specific interview with Chuck Norris, Toucher and Rich gave Gonzalez false information for the interview, such as that Norris had three nipples and was related to Santa Claus, both of which Gonzalez brought up in the interview. Nearly every bit on the show has a theme song written and sung on the spot by Gonzalez. The staff also devotes considerable time to teasing him for his overweight appearance, apparent naivety, and limited vocabulary and spelling ability.
Gonzalez has recently made an attempt at stand-up comedy, and has opened shows for Craig Gass.
