Go2Sleep Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 So when did Taz start his "_____ Jones" gimmick, and is there a story behind it? I noticed "Mezzanine Jones" in the Roddy/Jericho FCA a couple weeks ago, and at the ppv he said "Kendo stick Jones." I assume it's a running gag, and it's amazing. Most importantly, is there a video comp of all his Joneses? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz' co-commentator, Jerermy Borash was attempting to put Swansea over by mentioning all the famous people who came from the area. Now Dylan Thomas isn't a very contemporary reference, but there were a couple of people who are. Tom Jones, and Catherine Zeta Jones. And mentioning those two back to back caused Taz to fixate upon the name Jones for the rest of the broadcast, and indeed all subsequent broadcasts. 6 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most importantly, is there a video comp of all his Joneses? He was definitely doing it on his radio show/podcast back when I was an infrequent listener, which feels like a decade ago I don't think of it as a New York thing but my dad (Queens) used to do it on occasion (cheeseburger jones if I ordered a cheeseburger and things of that nature). I'm pretty sure with him it's from the Cheech & Chong song though, which is jonesing for something Someone needs to ask Taz about it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Log Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I thought maybe it was Taz's version of "jawns". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni/Britt feels logical, but I'm concerned about how apocalyptically horny it would make certain corners of the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Wouldn't it be funny if TK decided to buy the rights to Kris Statlander's indie music as a present to her, but accidentally bought the Aaliyah song, instead of the Bee Gees one of the same title?
