Barry Schwartz

Barry Schwartz is a homosexual Jewish caller and owner of Barry’s Flower Shop and Pottery Emporium in St. Louis, Missouri. He is an OG BlogTalkRadio personality, calling Clay Douglas' show back in its prime.

Characteristics of Barry's calls include complaining to Tony of receive unwanted bootleg TonyTalk merchandise. When under duress, Barry would comment that he had family members who perished in the Holocaust, and that Clay Douglas called Auschwitz a "summer camp".

Barry become the first advertisement for TonyTalk. However, upon the revelation that Barry's store was stocking and selling unlicensed TonyTalk merchandise, Tony rescinded the plugging and branded Barry a stunad.

Barry's calls are notable for having the longest average call length for a troll that isn't a co-host or hacking. His call on the 2-3-19 show is the longest call so far at almost fifteen minutes.



Character
Barry is straight-foward and to the point, who tries to be nice but will inevitably snap into rudeness when pressed. He has a habit of calling Tony "TonyTalk" much like Joseph Gibson does.

He claims to have had gender reassignment surgery and then took the identity of Caitlyn Schwartz. The surgeons, however, did not remove his penis, so he got gender reassignment surgery again to go back to being a male, which he prefers.

Barry and Steve the Producer and other fans of Clay Douglas met at a restaurant in Big Spring, Texas, for a meet and greet. However, Clay Douglas did not show up. Angered, the 'homosexuals' tore up the restaurant, scaring Jose.

TonyTalk merchandise
Barry's humble flower shop unexpectedly became a mecca of bootleg TonyTalk merch. Products include t-shirts with catchy phrases (e.g. "I'm with stunad"), fart-in-a-jars, pasta-scented candles, Tony-themed inflatable sex dolls (that fart when you poke its belly), squeezing vaginas with Tony's face on them, and masturbation tents.

Tony has blasted Barry for stocking the bootleg merch. Barry claimed to have thrown most of it out, but the fart-in-a-jars sold like hotcakes, and business is business. Jesco has even suggested that Tony eat different stinky foods to create new scents, which got a shouting from Tony.

To boost his business Barry enlisted Madeleine Mitten to model for the TonyTalk shirts. According to Tony she was not wearing pants in the photos. To reward her for her services Barry hit her sides and impregnated her. She thanked him by getting an abortion.

It had been theorized (or rather, lied about to discredit) that Pastor Ken Fishman was the one who sent Barry the TonyTalk merch. Ken professes that it was Kent Hopper who did it. Either way Tony was furious that someone was making money off his likeness and was not receiving a cent.

On the 22-11-19 show, after almost a year of absence, Barry made his glorious return. His store had become almost a porn store overnight due to delivered boxes of TonyTalk-themed porn parodies, all starring Johnny Cocksucker. Tony was furious that the merch had evolved into porn. Barry watched some of it and vouched that it was indeed Tony in the porno.

Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus shutting down businesses, Barry has had to shut down his famed flower shop. Mike Hunt reached out to Barry to sell his bootleg TonyTalk merch out of Mike's gym. This includes new products like Tony sex blowup dolls that emit ragu-scented farts when the belly is pressed. After a two month closure, Barry’s Flower Shop and Pottery Emporium reopened. The TonyTony merchandise quickly sold out, leading to Barry to ask Tony for more, to which he went irate.

Relationships
In early August 2020 Barry announced his true feelings for Tony: he loved him. He said sexually charged homoerotic things to Tony, including aggressive sodomy. Tony was disgusted and repelled.

Barry has been smitten by Alfonso and the two have been a couple since September 2020. They are currently travelling the world, with Alfonso playing at nightclubs as DJ Horsecock, and Barry selling bootleg TonyTalk merchandise on location. Their next big gig is the 2021 Flower Plower Manpile Extravaganza at the Hotel Settles, scheduled for March 21st 2021. Tony angrily refused an invitation. Due to Barry being a banned caller, Alfonso was also banned by association.

However, in November 2020, Alfonso betrayed Barry by stealing all the merchandise from his flower shop, sold it all on Craigslist and kept all the money, leaving Barry destitute. Tony offered sympathy but ruined this kind gesture with his 'I told you' spiel about karma from selling his unlicensed merch. The reason for Alfonso's betrayal is so far unknown.

Recently
In mid-August 2020, Barry, calling under the guise of Mr. X, told Tony to stop taking DCII's calls as he is allegedly long-winded and boring. DCII countered that Barry is himself long-winded and boring for having the same old bootleg merchandise shtick. This confrontation led to a stressed Tony and a Discord after-show discussion where the future of TonyTalk was discussed. The following show, Barry Mr. X apologized for being out of line. Don likewise apologized and a war was averted.

Barry might possibly be sued by Tony for defamation of character. Barry was selling 500lb life-sized water fountain statues of Tony on a toilet. Tony forwarded the images to his lawyer who said it was grounds for a lawsuit. Tony angrily demanded Barry's contact information, which he did not provide.

Barry is slowly rebuilding his business after Alfono's betrayal thanks to more deliveries of TonyTalk merchandise. Barry teamed up with TonysToilet to produce a line of Tony's chunky ragu shit sauce. Whatever sympathy Barry had garnered with his situation was swiftly eroded and replaced with enmity.
