Assclown of the Month June 2026

Congratulations to James Popov of Miami, Florida, aka Jimmy P for winning Assclown of the Month for June 2026. James was repeatedly flooding/spamming the chat rooms on the Max chat server with cult-like "Messianic" religious ramblings. Multiple requests and warnings to stop failed to take effect.

Jimmy P was given a final warning that he'd be banned from the chat if he flooded again.

After being kicked and banned from the chat, he started sending relentless private messages demanding that the ban be lifted immediately. After that his account on the chat server was deleted.

He followed that with a lengthy rambling email again demanding that he be re-instated.

The next morning he followed up with a pair of vile, disgusting racist e-mails to Phresh Phil. His ban is now guaranteed permanent and he is persona non grata with the radio stations here.

In addition to achieving Assclown of the Month honours, James Popov was also granted official certification:
