FYB’s Salute To Eccentrics: Anton LaVey on The Joe Pyne Show

In this Installment of FYB’s Salute to Eccentrics We Feature The One and Only Anton Szandor LaVey was an American Author, Musician, Paranormal Researcher ,and Occultist. LaVey is most Notoriously Known as The Founder and the Original High Priest of The Church Of Satan and The Religion of LaVeyan Satanism (and Author of the Infamous Satanic Bible).

This is NOT a LaVey Biography or In-depth Look at the Church of Satan Those will be coming Later. We decided to Post This First.

This is a Rare  1967 Television Appearance LaVay did on The Joe Pyne Show so You could Hear DIRECTLY FROM THE SOURCE That of Course Being Non Other Than LAVEY HIMSELF.

           

The Host Is Joe Pyne Who reminds Us an Earlier Prototype of Morton Downey Jr. who Pioneered  the “Trash TV” (Just Ask Jerry Springer) Format with His Talk Show The Morton Downey Jr. Show. Downey was known for Berating His Quests with a Verbal Assault of Insults, Derogatory Remarks, Extreme and Controversial Personal Opinion, and Personal Jabs. Downey would Yell and Scream at His gets (sometimes inches from the Quests face) while He Stormed around the Set like Maniac and Chain Smoked like His Life Depended on it.

Joe Pyne Employs many of these Talk Show Host Tactics in an attempt to intentional Anger Their Guest into Acting up/Out in Hope Their Wild Antics Boost Ratings. Pyne is Nothing if Not Antagonistic from the Very Start of the Interview attempting to Bait LaVey in Vain. Pyne called LaVay a “Nut” and a “DingBat”, Attacks Lavays Appearance from His Shaved Head and “Shifty” Eyes, Clothes, Necklace, and even Finger Nails). Pyne also Mocks LaVey by saying corny shit like “I’d tell You where to go, But I think You’d Like it, and Insulting LaVeys With and Children by referring to Them as “Ms. Devil/ Mrs. Beelzebub”  and “The Little Devils”.

           

LaVey for His Part is the Exact Opposite and Remains Cool, Calm and Collective while Ignoring Pyne’s Various Antics and Personal Attacks. LaVay conveys His point and Answers Questions Intelligently and to the Point. LaVey definitely Proved to Be the Bigger Man.

In a Rather Interesting (and Bizarre) Note The Host Joe Pyne Died a few Months after this Interview.

Hope You Enjoyed This Historical Segment of the Ongoing Story of Satan as Much as We did.

I hate Oprah Winfrey

First of all, I must say I do not entirely hate Oprah Winfrey. The success she has achieved as a talk show host and business entrepreneur is indeed absolutely remarkable.

So why exactly do I hate Oprah Winfrey??? It apparently is today’s million dollar question. Well I happened to watch yesterday’s show with her mentioning some mumbo jumbo about never having to be overweight or unhappy ever again.

So anyway……she had some talking head middle aged woman on with her blabbing about her new book or some grandiose bullshit like that. Then she had different assorted women talking about their weight loss struggles or something like that. I don’t even really know I was really not even paying that much attention.

   

However there were several things that greatly disturbed me. This talking head blabbing woman on there with her, maybe she was a doctor or some accredited something or another, talked about how in order to lose weight you cannot deprive yourself and shouldn’t count calories and all that.

People like this are exactly the problem that we have with obesity in this country. For Oprah Winfrey (who so many women understandable look up to her) to allow this woman to say something like this is a complete mockery.

First of all in order to lose weight one must create a calorie deficiency. You have to burn more calories then take in order to lose weight. I highly doubt Oprah’s legion of follows is going to burn more calories then take in if they do not deprive themselves of food somewhat. No one really wants to do two hours of cardio (or an hour of high intensity interval training) on a daily basis in order to keep consuming their fried chicken or their sugary treats or their ice cream or their cheesesteaks or their biscuits and gravy.

    

Then she goes on about how the most important thing is to be happy with your creator and you will be happy. OK that is fine and all. Now we get to have a bunch of fat women sitting in church not depriving themselves and celebrating with their 3500 calorie chompdown at the Old Country Buffet. While God is an important figure in many people’s lives it is not the above all and end all of happiness. Well if there is a God when you die I am sure it is, unless you are a naughty Catholic and thus damned to hell.

      

The craziest thing about Oprah’s struggles is that she is so rich that she should not need to worry about what she is consuming and how much is exercising. She could easily have people figure this out for her. She could easily have wonderful meals made for her that are delicious and low calories. She could easily find something to graze on like lettuce or carrots or hoodia. Yes I said hoodia.

Hoodia is found in South Africa or other parts of Africa. Oprah is a racist. It is quite funny how we can allow black people to be racists in this country but not white people. Oh wait, I forgot about the small but vocal minority of people in this country that consider themselves birthers. People that believe are president is not from this country. But this is not about Obama. This is about Oprah.

I’m really not all that frazzled by Oprah’s comments on the web talking about the white people that work for her. I might say the same about black people I worked with who were kind, decent people due to the fact that most of my contacts with black people have been with gangsters, criminals, and black men who have some kind of horrible fever for my flesh.

       

I’m really most appalled by Oprah not allowing whites into her school in South Africa. If someone white did this it would be all over the place. It would be protested and it would be stopped. I suppose because this is in a foreign country that only recently ended apartheid the people there are more then happy about having the blacks away from their white kids. Oprah is only adding to the problem. She is not helping that country progress. All the money in the world she has does not make this right.

So in closing I must say this. Oprah should really inspire our country’s women (and possibly men) to lose weight by setting an example. So many people admire her and this would mean a lot to so many people. On this one regard I have to say that Oprah is a quitter and a major disappointment to me.

Mind, body, and soul Oprah. Show me some gusto. Until then enjoy being overweight. Enjoy your shortened life span. Enjoy your rolls, both at the table and under your clothing. Inspire. You’ve lived, you’ve dreamed. Your generous. I know I’m all over the place here but in closing all I can say is I am very disappointed.
