Thom

Thom (spelt out-loud as 'tee aych oh em') is a gay fan of TonyTalk, who calls live from the Alley Bar, a local Boston gay bar and nightclub. He would typically call in to inform listeners of events happening at the Alley Bar.



His calls are characterized by loud background music. Thom's effeminate voice, as well as his descriptions of sodomy, has made him one of Tony's more homosexual callers. Thom would usually end his calls by dancing away from the phone, leaving Tony to yell "HELLO?" at the music.

Thom began on TonyTalk giving advice on gay male sex. The talk of sodomy and hygiene prep deeply upset Tony. As such, whenever Thom calls in Tony audibly sighs.

Thom called in on the 9-2-18 show but messed up, calling Tony 'Thom' and forgetting the music, so he hung up, much to Tony's confusion.

Thom's attitude towards Tony is not one of absolute respect. A few times Thom has told Tony to shut up. When Alfonso briefly hosted TonyTalk and was booted off by Tony, Thom declared that Tony turned his back on the gay community and called him an asshole.

For a long time during 2019 Thom was absent. Thom eventually returned in mid-late 2019, explaining that he had contracted a dozen or so STDs but that he was better. Tony was bewildered but relieved that was doing well-ish.

Thom has a brother named Them (pronounced 'tem) who only called in once. Them did not have any background music in his call.
