None of us like the fake priest “Father” Robert Ballecer. Whether you hate him for his fat neck-jiggling head motions he does on camera, the 1920’s affected radio announcer voice he uses, the pathological lies he tells, or the way his lips always look puckered due to the adipose tissue pressing outward on all parts of his enormous head, one can’t help but be disgusted.
However, you can’t discount his contributions to the “TWiT TV Network” in terms of minutes on-air. Sure, the content is terrible, but so is the content produced by Leo Laporte.
In the clip above, Leo Laporte is envious of the contributions made by PadreSJ and can’t stand that FMCP is represented more in the past week’s clips more than King Soup.
Green isn’t a good color on Leo.
Quick, someone call a WHAAAAAAmbulance for Leo.

The silence at the end is deafening. Interesting that they didn’t cut to a promo.

1. Complain about how you have to do all the work
2. Complain when anyone else gets some airtime.
3. Repeat
He’s acting genuinely alarmed about this nonsense and even did a huffy get-up/walk-over for a talking to.

Worst part about this is you know that he rolls over on Sat/Sundays and says to his ape-faced, home-wrecking wife, “Mommmmmmmy, I don’t wanna go to the Brickhouse today”
FUCK YOU LEO LAPORTE. GOOD RIDDANCE.

Naah.
Was time for his diaper change after TTG and before TWiT.

So now every content meeting will have the 800-lb gorilla in the room, “Is Leo getting 91% of the air time”. What a fun place to work.
Belmont’s Fake Geek Glasses» Quote comment
And while at that meeting also ask PadreSJ when’s he going to go to the Vet and get his hands treated? It’s bad enough when he’s wearing his creepy rape gloves, but his glove-less rotten peeling hands are disgusting. But yet he insists on “close-ups” all the time…

it is shitty editing, they are supposed to balance the clips as #soup said, the title of the post makes no sense, he is not jealous, he said the editing sucked which it did

The editor(s) got reamed, that much is certain. Are the good father’s days numbered?
The Ihnatko Kerouac» Quote comment
In my opinion, this is what’s going thru his egomaniacal mind… Lest there be no mistake… I built the twit souphouse solely for the purpose is my edification, admiration and adulation, period!
What a nice boss ;-(
Mark Pugner» Quote comment
It wasn’t the father’s fault, all blame should go to the editor. The padre does less shows than Leo, yet it seems he was most of the network. Some balance is correct as Leo pointed out.
StevieD» Quote comment
So are you saying if it was the other way around, three for Leo, and one for padre, he still would have had a tantrum ?
I don’t think so.
Lips of Jizz» Quote comment
If Leo hosts three times the shows, then no. And Padre wouldn’t be whining.
StevieD» Quote comment
The real story here is that there is absolutely no interesting twit content these days. Not even enough to fill a short promo video.

Could it be that Robert is nicer to the staff (editors specifically) so they feel more inclined to show his clips?

He does seem like an affable guy.
The Ihnatko Kerouac» Quote comment
The way he and Brian and Alex interact, he seems like the kind of guy who is well liked. Even if he’s not the most talented I think he’s going to stay at TWiT because he’s agreeable, easy to work with and well liked.
We’ve all had that kind of guy in our workplace at some point.
Myriam’s Penis» Quote comment
No, you can’t be right. I think most can see past his fake nice persona. He didn’t seem all too affable when it came to dismissing Shannon. Alex has no social skills and Brian is his roommate, normal people would never like that fat piece of shit.
He will continue to work at TWiT because he works for nothing or next to it. And he works like a dog, probably because of his Filipino blood.

OH my God man! Have you seen his fucking “rape” gloves. Dude is creepy as fuck. Seems like it might be fun to hang with him for a tiny while (like, maybe 20 minutes is pushing it).

Ballecer is a conscience free asshole – he doesn’t give a damn who he hurts. His grave headstone will read “Just following orders.” – yes well unfortunately for you Robert carrying out evil acts for whatever reason still means the world would be a far better place without you.

Any promo featuring myriam is a fail. That is one ugly person that really should not be used to promote anything. The person might be nice and all, but for drawing a crowd, that person makes them affraid.
In regards to leo .. One word.. Megalomaniac.

Magic: How dare you call Myriam “ugly.” She is a decent human being with talent and a kind heart. Oh wait…I just saw a picture of her. Myriam is roadkill in a t-shirt.

Isn’t this Leo’s normal MO with anyone who he poses as a threat? He starts complaining about them in subtle small ways and eventually over time it builds up and the next thing you know the person is out the door?
Esch» Quote comment
And…this perfectly illustrates why you don’t “live your life in public” like Leo does. NOBODY lets you see behind the scenes, because if they did, half the people would come off as assholes.
Leo said he hadn’t seen that promo. Why not? Too busy being lazy to come in and prepare for a show? I’m not sure that this is the editors fault. If Leo had a problem with it, it’s his own fault for not approving it ahead of time.
Real business owners are prepared. Not Leo!

Why does the camera keep, slowly, panning left and right? Is it on a string or something?

It’s kind of creepy, like Ted Danson’s ghost will pop up or something.

Some device they showed on one of the shows. On Kickstarter?
I like how the TD logo faded in.

Put a set of quality headphones and crank up the volume after Leo leaves, sounds like he walked over to Lisa LaCunts office walked in and closed the door , u can hear Leo LaPussys muffeled voice mixed in with John and Jason etc
Can’t make out what’s he’s winning about but it don’t take a brain surgeon to figure it out.
What a baby
He’s a forgetful,stupid , fat, two year old
Fuck you Leo

These sorts of people in the workplace are the worst. And is Lisa really the first person to take this up with, as petty as it is? Pathetic.

Holy fuck…. He actually said this shit on air??? He really has no clue what the shit he says sounds like!

This is crazy – I clicked on the video before reading the article and didn’t even notice anything…
Then the promo ends and Leo has a fucking shit-fit about one weeks promo?
Remember the time that Chad had a promo video solely about him? Haha, maybe thats the reason he’s gone!!!

I don’t think it can be overstated just how incensed he is. It’s baffling.
The Ihnatko Kerouac» Quote comment
I remember when they were supposedly looking for people to handle his duties because he was sooooooo overworked. Every popular show relied on him and that just could not go on! The poor guy needed rest! Fuck, what are they going to do when the priest leaves? He’s obviously doing the majority of the slightly “interesting” programming. Soup can’t handle any technology that’s been released in the last decade aside from phones and his skill set with those is lacking.
