The Cast

The Big Tone

Big Tone is, without a doubt, the most popular member of the Bob Freeman Show. Standing at over six feet tall and weighing well over 200 pounds, Big Tone is the incoherent Filipino madman from Franklin, Louisiana.

Despite his popularity, however, Tone’s appearances on the show usually aren’t without controversy. He has been known to make extremely homophobic remarks on a regular basis, and despite the fact he is Filipino, he is ashamed of the Philippines and uses the word “flips” to describe his own people. He also has had countless meltdowns on the show, usually resulting in severe damage to the studio and/or the people in it. Somehow, though, all of the above only seem to strengthen his cult following.

“I do not give a damns if people like what I have to say,” Big Tone explains. “If people do not approve of my comments, then what gives a fuck?”

Tone recently started a new website, BowlingForManila.com, which is garnering plenty of hatemail from the Filipino community. He claims the site is dedicated to reforming the Philippines, but with statements like "the flips bring shame to me" found throughout the website, Big Tone definitely isn't winning any fans among his fellow Filipinos.

"These pitiful flips need to realize that I have the First Amendment right to say what I want," Tone tells us. "And if they have a problem with me, then they can go back to Flipland and live with the other savages. Those people live in grass huts and bring shame to me."

Big Tone: whether you love him or hate him, you definitely feel something about him.
