Does anyone know the guy I'm referring to? He's one of their business / finance reporters and he's an Aussie but I'd hate to be trying to understand him if I were not an Aussie. Damn and all he speaks so quickly and loud! And with his eyes almost popping out of his head, and incredible facial expressions and arms waving around etc. Jeezaloo how does he settle down to sleep at night?

I get exhausted just watching him!

Oi! I like to rest, not get a work-out when I'm watching TV! And it's not a rant. I'll give YOU rant!
It's simply an observation that I'd like to share with anyone familiar with the guy. It's quite amusing really. You're just in the dark Raden and that's why you're a little lost on all this,
DARL!

Yep he's got that annoying scream, that's what the kid cannot tolerate. Good old gossip thread for aged mothers I must say! I think he's a Boy George fan

Definately not Village People!

what do you say luv?
Does he ever switch off?

He's Aussie ???. I thought he's accent is more Londonish , he doesn't have a real ocher accent
The other guy that was annoying was Richard Quest he hosted the business traveler and other programs on CNN. I always thought he was too hyper like on drugs or something!!

Spot on!

He must be on speed or something.
edited to add: Guess what! We weren't far off in our assumption. I googled him and this is what I found from Wiki. Wouldn't surprise me at all that he's still doing it!
Personal life
On 18 April 2008, Quest was arrested at 3:40am in Central Park, New York City, and charged with loitering and criminal possession of a controlled substance: crystal methamphetamine.[1] He subsequently entered a drug rehabilitation facility.[2]
