I came across this and listened to this months ago, and planned on posting it for the members of USMB's feedback, but never got around to it.

Now I see one member's worship of Simmons and I'm around and able to I felt now or never.

I'd like the viewers of this thread to click on the link and download the mp3 file to listen to the interview. I've heard it at least 3 times now and I've come to some conclusions about both Terry Gross and Gene Simmons.

For those of you who will...what's your analysis of the interview? Who was right, who was wrong?

Do you agree with Simmons, or Gross...or perhaps neither?

And explain your reasons why if you will.

Hitler once said that if the Jews were left to themselves, they'd "stifle themselves in offal".

This interview shows why.

Right off the bat, "Chaim Weitzman" rips Gross for mispronouncing his name, saying it came from a "gentile mouth." Only to find out that Gross, too, is a Jew. Then they descend into Jewish ridiculousness.

"KISS" is pretty quintessentially Jewish -- utter crap, disgusting "art."

So is NPR. Utter crap.

What if we swept it away one day?

Gross is a babe.

Simmons is a pig. But I admire a man who has slept with 20,000 women.

As an aside, my wife went to school with Shannon Tweed.
