Carver is well known for his ] views and is often used by Stern as the butt of jokes, the most prominent of which may be that he is completely oblivious to this. Carver considers ]s (whom he calls "the ]") to be the lowest form of human existence, followed by ]s, then ] (whom he refers to as "animals"), though he has said that he is "not anti-woman." Carver classifies virtually all minorities on the same level as "Blacks." He stated, in one of his answering phone messages: "...and I think when I say niggers, I also mean Mexicans, Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Asians, Haitians, and all the other dark-skinned, two-legged animals that look like tanned apes, but actually are wild, savage, jungle niggers." However, he opposes violence in any situation. In reference to his belief that minorities are just "animals," he was challenged about the talents of certain minority athletes (such as Tiger Woods, and his ability to play golf better than anyone else); his response was "You can teach a monkey to ride a bike, but that don't make him human." During a phone call on Martin Luther King Day, 2006; he stated that he believes that Stern is not Jewish, but merely says so in order to get away with being shocking. | |||

Carver used to review ] on ] by rating each film with a ] as part of a Thursday morning regular feature. Each week, Stern would give Carver a new movie to review: for comedic effect, there were a disproportionate number of ] and other black-themed movies. During Carver's reviews, a cheery ]-themed ] played, replete with the sounds of chickens clucking. | |||

On March 2006, Stern featured him on the third installment of his semi-regular ] shows, considered by fans and staff to be the weakest due to the large percentage of comedians who "bombed," they would later say that it is difficult to roast someone they dislike. | |||

In 1997, Carver appeared on ] in an episode entitled "Quit The Klan". Unsurprisingly, Carver did not quit the Klan. | |||
