Hey guys, James Valva here. I was the guy on the show yesterday for Bubba Idol. Been following these boards for a while, thought I'd register and just make a quick post.

-First of all I'm way too green to be on Bubba's Show at the moment. I know this. My goal is to get a job doing something else, and working on my ultimate goal on getting on the air. I can't make this any more clear. My video sucked balls-I admit it. But when I realized I fucked up, I had to keep going and think of a way to at least put myself into the conversation (and I did). I don't quit. I was very honest on the debriefing show in saying it wasn't my video, or talent that got me that many votes-but my work. And I stand behind that statement. And yes there are MANY people who are fucking stupid enough to vote for somebody (without looking at videos)-just because the person who retweeted it is a celebrity/well-known.

-I did not cheat for the voting. We were told that the top six winners going to receive an email, and that email I got somehow winded up in my spam folder. The only reason why I ever opened up that twitter account was for the contest, so I deleted all of the contest related posts, and most of my others too, when I thought I was out of the contest. That's why the only tweet I have on my page is a response (I deleted the tweet I sent).

-I still DO have messages on my email that I sent/received with people who retweeted me for the contest (see the image/link above), with them saying something quick about it or whatever-and that's my proof about the twitter. If you listen to the debriefing show I get into it with Pantera.

^ my facebook group devoted to my campaign. Currently 185 members (was at one time about 250).

-I've posted tons of posts on blabbermouth.net (user name is MaidenFlorida).

-I've made other posts on other groups/pages on facebook.

Anyways I understand what type of show Bubba's is-been listening for about 12 years now, and I'm just trying to get my foot in the door in the industry/business. I was 100% honest on the air.

You can now go back to bashing me.

Hey now and Welcome!

[SJ]

Yeah, I was on-air on Monday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKIyk...&feature=g-upl I have another on Funny Or Die.

I was the dude who (allegedly) got caught smoking a doobie by Pantera. At first, I didn't cop to it, but then I was like... fuck it. They had some free icehouse beers and I was feeling like... high/paranoid or something, so I drank 'em and poured some Fein in there. I just found this forum.

Hey now and welcome to you as well

Milk is so jelly.

The BRN is already kind of a strange place without the paranoia of being high kicking in.

You can now go back to bashing me.

Well you have a sense of humor about it it seems. Don't worry, we rip on each other most of all. Honestly that has to be the most brutal environment to be newbie and it takes balls to step in there like both of you did.

And if you're claiming everything is free of shenanigans, you were a hell of a self promoter and that could work in Bubba's favor social media wise if you ended up there. Welcome aboard.

Oh I know, I have thick skin (and I love shitting over other people haha). In hindsight of course there's tons of topics I wish I came up with...being thrown to the lions the first time you're on the air isn't easy. The contest itself was as confusing to the contestants (at least myself) at times as it was to the listeners. Not to mention the actual studio is pretty crazy if you haven't been inside of it-the videos of the darkness really don't do it justice until you're in it. But hey we all went through the same process, and the 5 other people faced all the same hurdles I did-so no excuses. My performance was what it was. Did my best, no regrets and the chips will fall where they fall.

Insert balls here

Welcome to the ball bashing, sucka. :-P Hehehehe. It doesn't get bad until your actual balls are actually bashed. Which is what they wanted to do to me more or less. Sounds fun. Didn't want anymore kids anyway.

I could have sworn you bamboozled em; either way you got in; it's all part of business man. Do you honestly think I got through legitimately? Sometimes you have to make your own paths. Kudos either way. You learn to love people shitting on ya; wait til it becomes a fetish. That's when you're in real trouble. :-) ...Welcome.

They shit on my forehead the whole time; I barely got in. But at least I razzled 'em. Which was fun. They changed the seating arrangements as a result and you got to actually meet Bubba. You're welcome. :-) How about the hate caller I got? Love it. If you're not pissing people off; you're not in radio. Stand up comedy is more fun, because you can actually make 'em leave the room. No refunds; buy the ticket, take the ride.

Have a good career kid; you went in with the sharks and came out alive, cus. :-) You social media con artist. ;-)

Shocking.

Spice is a PD and he isn't even around or listening to the specialty shows. Now he's like a real radio suit.

I just followed Miller on Twitter and there is a pic of him flipping off a Bubba Army bumper sticker. I thought he left on good terms? Always liked him on the show, btw.

[milkman]

hmmm, doesn't sound like sumthin Miller would do. Guess he didn't leave on quite as good terms as thought.

[Chob]

Looks like he's doing a typical "flip the camera off" pose to me.

When I saw the pic I couldn't believe it. Miller chose to leave the BRN a couple of times.

But why flip off the Bubba Army sticker?
