I am a newbie to The Banter. But I am a huge Bob Cesca fan. I just finished my first article by Chez. Fantastic. Thank you All for turning me on to both Chez and The Banter. Subscribing now.
I am so glad his archive is safe! Chez was my favorite blogger back in the olden days and was a true individual and inspiration. Cheers to you and Bob for keeping his legacy alive online.
Thank you Bob for your digital wizardry and thank you Ben for letting us know we can read Chez’s writings again. I was devastated when he shuffled off this mortal coil.
My memory is hazy now, but I think I stumbled across Deus ex Malcontent and was instantly hooked, so naturally ended up becoming a member of the Daily Banter family.
I corresponded with Chez frequently through email and he was always kind enough to answer. His opinion and insight was surgical and he was, as stated, fearless. When he died I was actually and honestly heartbroken. I had never met him or known him on a personal level but between his writing and Bob's podcast I felt a kinship with him. I miss him still and I'm even getting choked up typing this. We should still have his voice- especially now- speaking brutal, raging truth to power because no one could do it quite like him.
I'm grateful his blog is intact and will visit it frequently in the hopes that maybe his death was an Andy Kaufman style punking of everyone and there will be a new post of him making a mockery of mockery.
Thank you Bob, so very much, for your technical wizardry that allows us to read Chez's words again. Still miss that guy !
Thanks! Ever since Bob captured the domain name, I've had a link to it on my menu bar. Finally, it's filled.
God, I miss the guy. I was really crushed when he left us.
Things to do in Texas When You're Dead was the first piece by Chez I ever read. I'm super happy I get to read it again.
Chez is in the room! With all the bad news these days, I needed this. Thank you for persevering. Can’t wait to read his words again.
I miss Chez so much. Thanks to you and to Bob for preserving his words!

Welcome to the club! Drinks are over there, food is over here, and the snark is all around *wink*

Thank you for introducing me to Chez, an important writer to read.
Thank you for reminding me of someone that I read regularly and appreciated. When I learned that he had died I was devastated. Rest in Peace, Chez.
