I deleted this: "On the March 19, 2007 episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Arnold was the first guest on the show. He appeared drunk and disorderly, rambling throughout his entire interview." I just finished watching this, and for almost anyone else I would assume they were drunk, but it seemed like normal behavior for tom arnold. However, if I find a source I will put it back up. --Carl Von Clausewitz 08:14, 20 March 2007 (UTC) Yeah, I almost added that he was intoxicated on that show. Conan even poked at him for being "hammered", so it's clear it wasn't just Tom Arnold. They even lengthened the segment because he was "on a roll" confessing all of this "what really happened" gossip about Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger not having really broken his leg skiing. I haven't found an article on the show, so it made me wonder if somebody pulled some strings. It's a shame we let media coverage dictate history, but then I think, we're talking about Tom Arnold here. Who really cares? Not encyclopaedic. --208.180.234.92 05:42, 21 March 2007 (UTC) I deleted this: "This was lampooned in the movie The Big Lebowski, in which the character Walter, played by John Goodman, who played Roseanne's husband on Roseanne, remained devoutly Jewish after his divorce." This an unsubstantial claim, and based on no fact. Originally posted in the Tracy Morgan talk page: I'm reasonably sure that the radio segment cited on the page regarding Tracy Morgan's current whereabouts is a gag. Comedian Craig Gass (Craig Gass) frequently appears on radio shows posing as one of the personalities he does impressions of shooting a movie in whatever area in which the station broadcasts. WNNX 99.7 in Atlanta had a similar "special appearance" by Morgan and Adam Sandler in late January, which happened to be at the same time as Gass was performing at a local comedy club. Since Gass's touring schedule on his website has not been recently updated, I cannot prove anything, but since Tom Arnold is also one of Gass's specialties, I can assume as such Gass was in Columbia doing a show, and that he conducted an interview in the characters of Tom Arnold and Tracy Morgan. If someone in Columbia can confirm Gass's whereabouts on the date in question, that would be appreciated.
[edit] Abused as a Child?I'm reading a book called "Male on Male Rape: The Hidden Toll of Stigma and Shame" by Michael Scarce. On page 108, it says Tom Arnold has stated that he was sexually abused as a boy. Is it acceptable to include that in this Wiki entry? jcm 3/26/8 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chumley41 (talk • contribs) 18:52, 26 March 2008 (UTC) [edit] This Talk PageWill someone please clean up that mess of code at the tap of this talk page? I'me fine with the first Biography and Iowa project banners (which I've nested). I'm not familiar enough with wikicode to do it myself. — AnnaKucsma Speak! 14:12, 7 September 2007 (UTC) [edit] Redneck WeddingShouldn't it be mentioned somewhere that he hosts My Big Redneck Wedding? 69.29.132.102 (talk) 04:13, 26 March 2008 (UTC) [edit] Jesco WhiteSomeone should put up how Tom Arnold is generally an asshole. All it takes is a viewing of Jesco Goes to Hollywood. Tom flies Jesco White (a very poor (probably) drug addicted redneck) out to Hollywood to appear for 2 seconds in his show. The ENTIRE time Tom does nothing but make fun of him and it is generally disrespectful and well, asshole-ish. |
