* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Arguably, in Ghost's opinion, [=BlogTalkRadio=] screwed over his show twice without telling him. On January 27th's episode, they randomly took away his after-show privileges, causing an odd end to the show. On April 17th's episode, he couldn't start the show until fifteen minutes after the show was originally supposed to start. Ghost didn't take that very kindly. More recently, in September 2016, BlogTalkRadio failed to archive some episodes post-show hour, leading to him not doing post-shows until he extends the show back to 3 hours.

** In episode 250, he confesses to having fond memories of playing ''StreetFighterII'' and ''SoulEdge'' with his son in arcades in the 90s, even doing [[Kiai impressions]] of the Hadouken (though he pronounces it "Hayuuken") and Tiger Uppercut.

** Averted with the ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' fanbase, which appeared to be what could have been a successor to the bronies had TCR still been on the air. Not only did Ghost return when the game's hype was still at its peak, neither he nor the trolls gave it any more of a reaction than incidental annoyance.

* FanworkBan: Implied, since Ghost isn't really amused by soundboards, splices (which often take things he has said, and either take them comically out of context, or re-arranges them, simply to make him rage), and remixes of himself. However, this may be more because he thinks they damage the integrity of his show or make fun of him.
** Ironically, despite this hate of people mashing him up to make him rage, he actually ''objects'' to the Stop Online Piracy Act because he supports the creation of independent content that the internet allows.
** Even more ironic, is that he dedicated New Year's Eve to ''honoring'' them.



* OneOfUs: A truly bizarre example. Ghost, who is basically an old, angry redneck, seems to know just about everything about {{nerd}} culture. This has been cited as evidence of him being a troll.
** In particular, he's surprising adept at recognizing ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' quotes and songs, and clearly knows things about the show such as how ponies get their cutie marks and the Derpy Hooves fiasco despite claiming that he didn't watch the show and that it's for eight-year-old girls.
** February 28th, 2012: (in response to a caller playing a remix of "Bloody Tears") "Get out of here with your dumbass Mexican music... no, wait a minute, that's ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}''. Throw the Holy Water, I love that sound!" Ghost later went on to declare the second game in the series his favorite.
** He also likes Nirvana (specifically, the song "Rape Me") and is a big enough Marilyn Manson fan to know the b-side track "The Hands of Small Children" (and use it in his Woodchipper segment) and "We're From America."
** On 7/13/11, when asked what his favourite video game was, Ghost responded with "the first VideoGame/MetalGear off of the original Creator/{{Nintendo}}". Also, on 10/19/11, he said {{Mario}} 1, 2, and 3 ''really'' kicked ass, but quit playing entirely when the Super Nintendo came out.
* ScheduleSlip: Often after an episode with a ''major'' trolling, it'll just go off the air for a period (as little as a day, or as much as a week) and then come back. Although sometimes the show does sometimes doesn't occur for other reasons.
