His Attitude
In between songs and the Liberty Rock jingle, Iggy often has his opinion about drugs, terrorism, women, today's music, and the time of day/weather in Liberty City. He rarely ends his opinions without throwing in slurs of vulgar language ("have a nice day sucking the corporate cock") ("well it's all shit, just plain shit") ("...a type of t'ai chi called fucking like a bandit. Great exercise man, spiritual.") He also mentions a few times of his station that, "I play what I wanna play and say what I wanna say." and, "I don't give a shit if you don't like these songs 'cause I do!" He thinks of himself as a "freedom fighter" and is laid back against other radio stations that are "held by the balls". Iggy has a contempt for research consultants, believing radio stations focus too much on "image" and "appealing to the kids with ironic imaging and self-deprecating humour", instead advising them to "play some fucking music!"
