- In 2007, critics of Smith decided to deface his Wikipedia page in an attempt to voice their displeasure with Smith. He used to have actual segments with a purpose, but currently all he does is make things up as he talks for 4 hours. It is intensely painful to listen to. Amy Lawrence filling in is 1000 times more enjoyable.

Controversy
- Jason Smith is known to talk only about Football and Baseball on his radio-show ignoring all other sports much to the chagrin of listeners with more diversified sports interests. This is not necessarily a bad thing though considering there is no evidence he has ever witnessed an NBA game either on television or in person.
- Reports have surfaced that Jason scored lower on an intelligence test than a walrus with down-syndrome. When asked to comment about this on his radio program by Beano Cook, all Jason could reply was "Mrumphading".
- On September 18, 1995 Smith pleaded guilty to charges of public intoxication, and was sentenced to 120 days in prison. Allegedly, following a screening of the Mel Gibson Oscar winning movie Braveheart, Smith proceeded to run in front of the screen, drop his pants, and shove a large flower of broccoli into his anus.
