He’s on to something that if he got those two cowards into a room with each other I guarantee they somehow wouldn’t hash any issues they have with each other and end up doing something together.
They fear that being around each other would reveal that they are now irrelevant old men. Nobody wants to hear the old "we're getting the band back together" routine.
And they can't get through to him because Nana's one and only concern is getting home as quickly as possible to resume drinking and tweeting again. He's so into it he doesn't have a second to spare for anything else.
I think it's safe to say that Gregg Hughes has won the war.
"He's done" - you mean after selling torpid sloth t-shirts, leading bandwagons to insult him on twitter, dedicating shows to mocking him, etc. that Opie doesn't want to go back into the Cumia business?!?!
He can't stop talking about Opie. You can tell he is seething with jealousy over the fact Opie hasn't pissed away his money and has a wife and kids who love him.
I think he is also mad that Opie had all the hate at one point and now nobody really mentions him. Ant had a small window where a lot of people had his side and he was laughing at opie getting trashed daily. Im sure Opie is laughing now and Ant hates it because there isnt anything he can do to move the focus off him and his brother. He cant throw money at this problem like he does with everything else.
Bingo. Even if you take away all the ironic Opie love, no one really gives a shit that he's comedy cancer anymore. Opie served his sentence in internet autist prison but Ant's in there for life.
Nana refuses to face the undeniable fact that his bizarre Twitter addiction is the root cause of every single issue that's befallen him over the last five years. He'll never admit it either. Until the day he dies he will continue to insist he was done in by SJWs and PC libtards and will never admit that he retardedly tweeted his career away for no reason at all.
This is sad to watch just knowing that a once ambitious Erick is in career limbo on a shitty net work run by a dirty cop and a pedophile. Too bad he didn’t finish his screenplay and sell if for some righteous bucks.
Be pretty ironic if he sowed up at Opies apartment and Opie shot him for trespassing and Opie had a legal concealed carry permit that he never felt the need to speak about.
I'd rater see a Maude reboot than see these 2 get back together. Who would pay them to go on the air? They are not welcome on radio, not sure either one is allowed in the Sirius building, Opie is not stupid enough to drop a nickle into the money void of Compound Media and you can't make any real coin streaming or podcasting. What could possible be in it for Opie? I would however, listen to a single episode on Sirius XM if during that episode Same and Jim got fired and escorted from the building
People laughed about it at the time, but Anthony really did "manipulate the hate". He was more than happy to throw his radio partner of 20 years under the bus and egg on the harassment he was receiving if it meant getting views for his own shitty show.
His Twitter harrassment/trolling during the Casey Anthony trial was still worse than anything he's done online since. He was basically Jocktobering/Maxwelling young suburban soccer Moms with 20 followers for fun and it was fucking nasty. A lot of them used their real names.
Oh sure. Sam would take it for being an Opie kiss-ass. Erik and Sam also NEVER hung out. The lines in the sand were very clearly formed. Erik and Sam were Opie guys.
Roland's only function was booking guests. Of all the years I worked with him I only observed him eating with Erik. They shared an office and it was like that every day. Both of their office chairs were fucking disgusting from mayo and sauce and shit dripping between their legs onto the seat. I'm amazed they're both still alive frankly. That said, neither of them will be living very long. You can only demolish your body for so many years before something happens.
No. Travis was team Anthony. Travis worked his balls off and contributed to the show WAAAY more than Erik and WAY more than Steve believe it or not. Steve get's a lot of praise around here but for what? He was a drugged out zombie who peddled shit on Foundry all day. He didn't do a fucking thing after 2007 and before that it was all borderline psychotic production pieces. Producing a radio show and doing Production are two wildly different things.
Once, I needed to check my email and his PC was the only one on. I typed in gmail.com and HIS email popped up.
First thing I see is a $800 order for Oxycodone from India. There were multiple several hundred dollar orders for bootleg Indian drugs. Steve would be sweaty and out of it all day long. I brought this up to Opie as I was concerned for Steve and the show and nobody cared while nothing was done. Sound familiar?
When I saw Lazlow the day after Steve killed himself I said "Hey, so. There's something I need to tell you."
He already knew. He goes. "Steve killed himself didn't he." Nobody had told him previously. It was obvious to almost everyone.
Not really. I'm sure I've posted much of this before. The community here decides what's real and what's fake based on the Q rating of the person in question. Steve is liked too much around here to be a useless drug addict.
Ant's co host is really really bad. It's like a bit of shitty furniture in a room. You kinda know its there but you just forget it as its not really adding anything
Beyond the hundreds of other examples, Keith pushing for this proves without a shadow of a doubt how much of a bumbling moron he is. No one wants this. No one will pay for it, let alone listen to it for free. At best, they get one extra listen from a morbidly curious person who uploads it here so we can use it for cannon fodder. The lack of business sense to try to do anything creative and different is astonishing. I'm embarrassed for all of them.
The reason Opie doesn't return his calls or text is because Anthony has nothing to offer. Opie did extend the olive branch at one point offering to get a beer and Anthony (probably regretfully now) turned it down.
He's so bitter that Opie doesn't need his podcast to survive, he's bitter that Opie didn't piss his money away on a shitty McMansion an hour outside the city and ultimately just angry that he's struggling when he's supposed to be "the funny one". He was supposed to have the successful solo career and he's somehow the most pathetic of them all.
The studio is too fucking small. They're RIGHT UP against the green screen, which with their lighting, causes that green "halo" effect. You need to be 6 - 10 feet from a chroma wall to not get that bleed. That studio won't allow 10 feet for depth.
Or you need cameras where you can adjust the red/green/blue gamma and intensity channels independently, as TV stations have. Not camcorders on monopods.
What this bot lacks in wits and charm, it makes up for in lack of wits and charm.
I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. If you're human and reading this, you can help by reporting or banning u/The-Worst-Bot. I will be turned off when this stupidity ends, thank you for your patience in dealing with this spam.
PS: Have a good quip or quote you want repeatedly hurled at this dumb robot? PM it to me and it might get added!
The whole thing is hilarious and they can't get Nana to give a shit, as his one and only concern is getting out of there as soon as possible so he can resume drinking and tweeting again.
Nana puts no effort whatsoever into his shitty podcast and it shows. After five years it's exactly the same as it was when he started it. The only guests he attracts are bottom-feeding nobodies. His one "big move" was hiring a no-nose heroin addict who ended up in jail after abandoning him. He's visibly uncomfortable in front of the camera and has absolutely no idea how to be entertaining. It's obvious that he's just going through the motions so he can scurry back home to tweet and drink himself stupid.
On top of that his brand is toxic and no one with even a hint of a reputation to uphold would want to be associated with him, not even Opie. Within an hour of agreeing to reunite with Ant he'd be forced to explain why he's willing to work with a racist pervert again and whatever tiny bit of credibility he might have left would be gone just like that. Long before he got fired Anthony was dragging their old show down with his drunken ranting, why would Opie want to re-live that experience again?
That's AntH's biggest problem, he's lazy. He had so much potential after he got let go, and I feel like he barely did anything. He just can't be bothered and he has very little ability to edit himself or rein in his point of view. It's a goddamn shame.
I'm no Opie apologist but why would he want to swoop in and save Ant's retarded show? What's in it for him? Anthony gave him reams of shit after he got fired and didn't have anything good to say about him, so why should Opie do him any favors?
If Count Groomia wants to have a better show maybe he should put down the beers, stop tweeting for twenty-two hours a day and put the effort in.
My unintelligible point being that his laziness precludes him from doing anything himself to improve his show other than taking the easiest path, which would be to reunite with Opie, which isn't happening anyhow.
How absolutely embarrassing. Spend 2 mins talking about how Opie's too proud and Anthony isn't proud. Then Keith suggests several ways to reach out to him and Anthony says he won't do it. Then he shit on Opie's show. The fuck kind of olive branch is this?
Then Anthony says he's always been the "Let's talk," guy. The whole fucking Greggshells show left you wondering "Why not just get the fucking beer?" How many times did Opie, by Anthony's admission, just ask Anthony to talk, only to get blown off?
I really wonder after the horrendous last 5 years with everyone involved in that show if I could get back into Opie, Anthony, and Jimmy. I worshipped this show for probably 12 years, but I can't even go back and listen to old episodes. I didn't get into anything any of them did afterwards, including Jimmy. (Obviously)
