Maybe this is one of the reasons why Ronn Owens, (aka: mattress man) doesn't allow Karel, (aka: the "entertainer"), to be a fill-in when Ronny takes vacation time.
At KGO Radio's Christmas party at Boudins, I'm hearing Karel was deep in inner ego and quite enjoying himself. You can read into that what you make of it.
From my insider who was at the party, his highness made quite a toast, leaping on the platform to tell the throng...
...SO, here's to me and 'Fuck You...
To the whole group. (Well, now that's a way to get to primetime, ain't it?)
Furthermore, according to my insider, "he was loud and wanting attention when the 'GM was talking." Karel? You don't say!
And so the GM did the right thing for a change and told Sir Charles to "shut up and fuck you 'Karelia!" (bam!)
This doesn't surprise me. It's been long rumored that Karel's days are numbered at the albatross station. Even by KGO standards, Karel is an unmitigated disaster. Hence, his outburst and behavior at the holiday bash is not surprising at all.
When you got nothing to lose...

That's not exactly how it went down.
ReplyDeleteI got a really good source so I'll stick with it...have a turkey sandwich and beer on me.
DeleteHey intern: Cork it. If Lieberman says it's a really good source, it is. Tell your peeps to act like adults and maybe your stinky laundry doesn't get aired. Your station sucks rotten eggs and so does the other stations in the "family." Face facts. While you're having that turkey sandwich and a beer, have a Coke and a smile and shut the hell up.
DeleteDoes anyone think there are actually interns at Cumulus? Who are they? I've never met one. As for Rich's story that's not exactly what happened. People were tapping glasses for a speech if I recall, and no one was speaking. Karel jumped up out his chair and decided to shout out some premeditated nonsense that ended with him saying something to the effect "so here's to me and fuck all of you." Rich is correct that it was embarrassing, but there was no platform and he seemingly only spoke up after no one else had. There was no platform/stage. The weird thing about it is the majority of the people in the room didn't know who he was! My whole table was asking "who is that idiot?" The GM did shout Karel down to the applause of the room. Yet Rich then suggests that's a rare good move from the GM. Which begs the question: Rich, do you know anything about the GM, or are you just trying to pretend that you do?
DeleteFood choices were: steak, chicken, fish, or vegetarian. All VERY good.
Rich leads his disciple to believe that any criticism of him comes from "interns" who are doing the work of mighty corporate villains, the bad guys, with whom he courageously does battle.
DeleteThis of course is nonsense. The big corporations that Lieberman loves to hate don't know Lieberman exists and wouldn't waste precious corporate resources on a harmless pest.
Yet YOU replied--WTF!!? You must have shit for brains or your Karel's ghost.
DeleteAnd he's a really good dancer
ReplyDeleteProponents of gay marriage, gay adoption and gays serving openly in the military should be glad that Karel is not a nationally syndicated host.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, she's quite the embarrassment as the lone "out" gay guy on SF Radio.
DeleteShe currently has a car-spot on K-GOne. Something....something...my late husband Andrew....something...something...arglebargle...closing with: Tell 'em Karel sen'cha.
Who knew that the Bay Area had its very own Alaskan (Snowbilly) Grifter? You be'cha! Oh wait...Karel lives in El Lay. Thankfully.
You know not many people know it...but Karel Bouley is one TERRIFIC DANCER!
ReplyDeleteIf he confined himself to just dancing during his show I might not feel like vomiting every time I accidentally tuned in.
Delete3:39: And he could paint an entire apartment in one afternoon, TWO COATS!
DeleteHe may be gay, but that's not a bad thing!
ReplyDeleteWhat's with the tats bro?
ReplyDeleteI am stunned by his appearance. Good grief!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, I expected Karel to be thin, sort of a young Ralph Nader with either a Pompadour or with a goatee and a red beret. He is tedious and a true talent but just not my style. Too angry and vitupertive to those with different views on living.
DeleteI thought he was thinner, too, but that was dumb on my part because most radio personalities are a bit on the chubby side.
DeleteKarel has been complaining for YEARS that mattress man never invited him to fill in even though he filled in on EVERY other talk time slot. What a wanna be diva! As if anyone gives a damn what time he's on. It must hurt his ego people at the party didn't even know who he was!
ReplyDeleteMaybe next time he should bring along his red carpet just in case!!?? Lol!
This is what Karel looks like? Omg....
ReplyDeleteNothing like seeing tats on a white guy's flabby arms. DUDE--HIT THE GYM EVERY NOW AND THEN! Do your tats some justice!!!
ReplyDeleteThe most shocking part of this story: a local radio station threw a Christmas party?!? Next you'll say people got bonuses.
ReplyDeleteThe station probably called it a Holiday Party, at least on paper. You know they're afraid of litigation by some power mad Angry Atheists who want to stomp out every spark of joy until everyone is a miserable as they are.
DeleteEarings...check
ReplyDeleteTats......check
Goatee.......check
Trying to hard...............check, check check
"to"(sic) ? "earings(sic)?
Deletedid you mean "too" and "earrings" or were you not trying hard enough?
Here we go again. The spelling queen Craft making her usual appearance to chime in on other people's spelling and grammar. What a horse's ass!
DeleteThanks for posting that, Christine.
Delete(rolls eyes)
Although I did not make the spelling error, I always honestly appreciate the Spelling Police because sometimes I spell things wrong and I want to know if I do. Also, it is distracting to me when I see spelling errors. The word "earrings" I might just have misspelled.
DeleteBut of couse, you're welcome. I know you bots don't know your twosies.I see you walking the streets, mesmerized by your smartass phones, walking into lightposts. Will discuss, tomorrow night at 6 pm as I fill on KGO 810,
DeleteFunny that the grammar and spelling police aka Christine Craft usually has as many if not more errors than those she criticizes. Christine, please use a period instead of a coma at the end a sentence honey. Perhaps you'll blame your smartass phone and/or your chubby fingers for the "error"!? What an ass.
DeleteIt's true that #10.11 used the wrong spelling for the word too. I would bet you a Clark Bar that this writer is 35 or younger, perhaps much younger. Most of them that age don't know any better. Spellcheck has added to the laziness. I don't think grammar or diction is taught anymore in the open to public schools. If it is taught, mistakes are allowed to go uncorrected. I don't think Civics is taught anymore either, is it? Too bad!
Deletedear 9:53... A coma can be many things, often requiring life support. I have always had long, slender fingers, not chubby ones. Please check your lack of "comma" in that fist full sentence.
DeleteOh dear Christine at 9:42 please check your own last sentence. No one is talking about any "fist", perhaps you came to the wrong blog looking for "full fist(ings)"?
DeleteKeep it clean honey.
TMI!
It wouldn't be the first (fist?) time you made an ass of yourself.
I enjoy listening to Karel from time to time. Seems like he has a really big heart. The deal breaker is his 100% to the left views and stances on everything. He seems like a parrot for the Democratic party talking points. Such a shame.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing Karel's photo, I'm not at all surprised he hasn't had sex in two years. (Yes, he did share that tidbit with his audience a couple weeks ago; and, yes, I did shout "TMI" at the radio.)

ReplyDeleteFunny how his Picture looks different at the top of his article. LOL
Wow, Karel is not my favorite...
ReplyDeleteBut give him a break! I always say:
"Don't judge a man until you walk a mile in their shoes"
Karel has had a hard row to hoe...
Being Gay can't be totally easy!
Plus, the love of his life died...he still speaks of him.
Must be lots of Republicans here...
It's becoming obvious by the cruel/heartless comments!
"Why Republicans Have No Heart"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrrW2QkOv58
Why are you giving all the credit to Republicans? I'm sure there are equal amounts of Dems who also "hate" Karel. All it takes is one good ear and five minutes of listening to Karel.
DeleteGee Karel's review of the club sounds just like Stefon from Saturday Night Live.
ReplyDeletehttp://popwatch.ew.com/2013/05/17/saturday-night-live-stefon-clubs-everything/
That's why the comment at the end of the article said that Karel's article read like a SNL skit and that Karel was merely a poseur.
DeleteTick, Tock, Tick, Tock...your time at KGO is about to run out, Karel.
ReplyDeleteGuy Fieri looks great in that photo
ReplyDeleteGuy Fieri is fast becoming the 'Ron Burgandy' of The Food Network, i.e. severely overexposed. I guess we're stuck with him for know, since his endorsement sells products. My Crystal Ball(z) shows a gradual return to prominence for Paula Deen. As it should be, most of us still love her. The REDSKINS is another fake, fake controversy. Many Indians have said they are not offended. What some want to do is slowly smother all the fun and warrior behavior out of football because it is a man's sport that cannot be played by 99.999% of the women on that professional level. The majority of people are tired of verbally walking on eggs all the time, so as not to offend, while certain other groups feel free to issue nasty tweets in clearly threatening terms without suffering a consequence. Enuf is enuf!
DeleteWhy is it the only people who I ever see defending the Washington Redskins nickname are almost always WHITE MEN? How about renaming them to the Washington Paleskins and see how far they get with that.
ReplyDeleteTwo suggestions for changing the name of the Washington Redskins:
Delete1.) The Los Angeles Redskins
2.) The Washington Dreadskins - the name changes but kinda stays the same. Liable to aggravate everyone!
I can't believe that Steven Underhill would put his name on that dreadful photo of Karel. It's not Underhill's fault...that's what Karel really looks like. He has a serious weight problem and his face just looks busted. Now he has an ugly personality and behavior problem to match.
