I probably shouldn't post here yet, but I think I should just let you know what I can tell you.

Yes, TOAE went "YMB". I cannot discuss what prompted this decision, at this time and cannot confirm nor deny any speculations.

Running Ted's was a roller coaster. It had its rewarding moments but also had its problems. What I can tell you is that what made it rewarding was the wonderful support I received over the years. I can easily say that most of you are the best.

There were many before me and they're be many after. TOAE will be just a footnote in the long run of sites. The good and bad will be missed. You all will be missed.

ps: For the sake of others DO NOT POST LINKS IN PUBLIC VIEW!

thanks for all you've done, dude

Stay strong. Don't know what we could do but hope all goes well considering the situation.RIP teds u will always be rememberd

You got me through countless workdays. If there was such thing as an internet grave stone, yours would be huge and lavish and all that good stuff.

Thanks man, your website was so well made and of course the content was perfect. Thank you.

Good luck bro.

For any future posters...remember that a Cease and Desist does not mean you have to actually do either of those things. Even if it comes from a big, scary corporate lawyer who makes threats about suing you.

Godspeed, Teddy. All the best.

Want to thank you for spending all that time to post all those eps online. I was living on the West Coast, so it was pretty difficult to listen live last year. On good days, I'd be able to download your shows at 7 AM and even listen to the show the same day on the drive to work.

Really liked how fast you were able to get the episodes up. Really liked all the effort you put into putting those episodes online, for the fans. Good luck.

Thanks Bud.

You're a hero dude. You're mom's box.

You're mom's box.

He is mom's box? Odd.

Alternative site with full uploads daily for your listening pleasure. Fuck you SXM lawyers.

why did you write that? i dont have any links. what are you offended by a jews joke?????

I'm now just realizing i wasn't replying to the basketball video.

ok then

GAY you fucking retards.

[deleted]

I have the scoop on good authority.

"Ted" = Edward Snowden.

He's missing in Hong Kong.

I just wanted to point out that either yesterday or the day before, someone posted a link to TOAE on here, and today it's gone.

Edit: I'm not looking for links, I'm saying that everyone needs to stop publicly sharing link because it's obvious that the powers that be monitor sites like this.

As I PM a few links I'm hoping one of you isn't secretly a SXM lawyer :P

EDIT: I've already gotten a TON of PMs this morning about links. I'm away for work for a few days and my links are on my home PC. Apologies but I'm not going to be able to send replies out for a while. You might have better luck asking elsewhere.

EDIT 2: Maybe I wasn't clear, STOP PMing ME. I will not be sharing the links I have anymore, especially when I see your account was created today/yesterday.

If you fuck up the one I use, I'll hate you forever.

You do realize that one of these people ARE MOST LIKELY A SIRIUS XM LAWYER. we have to start separate cells to protect the main head.

Or even someone directly related to the show.

Or everyone could start paying for the show. LIke I do. even though their service does suck and the online app does cause so many headaches.

and if you have sirius you have to pay the extra 2 bucks, it's completely bogus. damn siriusxm is lame.

[deleted]

Yup, i'll beg for one too.

PLEASE PM me I cant get a reception at work and I shit you not I was on the phone for two hours trying to set up a cell phone connection with sirius xm and the shit heads couldnt figure out how to send a signal to my phone

Could I have a link please good sir?

PM please?

Can I get one as well?

[deleted]

I too could use a PM please.

Me too please

Could I get that PM as well. I have only 1 alt source for O&A now that Ted is gone for the time being.

It sucks because during the first cleansing back in January he just switched his site to a members only thing and you needed a blogspot ID to get the content.

Sirius probably knew he already had 1 strike against him, and so this time they hit hard.

Can I get a PM as well? Thanks :)

Can I get a PM as well please

I will take that PM as well, especially one with an R&F source - I can't go without my daily R&F and my radio doesn't work inside at work.

Please PM the link? It's the end of days!

can I get a PM, please? thank you in advance!!!

[deleted]

God damn it.

yep. I'm fucked.
that was my go to for the boys and ron, fez and pepperkeet.
If someone has any alternatives, and could trust a fellow fan to be cool about it, I would welcome a PM from with any suggestions on how to get back up.
I found another source, but it is private and there's no way I can see to request an invite. I'd love to say which one, but I don't want to give the suits any ideas.

My last resort is always stern geek.

My last resort is always stern geek.

SG 'got' most of O&A stuff from Teds and other sources and claimed it as their own.

Damn, that's shitty. Never knew that, won't be supporting him any more.

Yup, compare the files between the now former Ted's and SG. Exact same edit points, filesize, etc. Only difference is id3 tags where you see SG's shitty name plastered all over. Not only, you have to click through shitton of ads and shitty upload service links. That site could burn in hell for all I care...

I appreciate the tip. I'll give it a shot. at first glance, it's kinda a pain in the ass.
But if it's my only way to get the shows, I'll gladly do it.
Thank you.

Check your PMs

damn. mind sending a PM my way sir? Longtime fan thanks to Ted's (i no longer drive)

this guys reddit is like 17 hours old. In the spirit of security can we not be PMing people with two posts, both being comments asking for links within the last 17 hours....... (if you're a real fan I apologize, but you of course see why this is suspect)

Considering they are cracking down on full show uploads I suspect Ted's got caught up, as it's one of the most well known. They know that it's not just YT.

I'm sure we are all loyal Sirius subscribers here and have nothing to do with it. They have wonderful customer service and provide easy and reliable access to the show.

If you don't pay for it you are all gay.

EDIT: I suppose sarcasm has it's limits.

I pay a ton for my subscription, and get charged incorrectly all the time. In my experience, SiriusXM has close to the bottom in terms of customer service. I understand that this show is successful based on the number of subscribers and support of the advertisers. I pay monthly, support all of the advertisers, and travel to all the live gigs. I think word of mouth and YouTube clips is one of the reasons why this show has gained popularity in other countries. If you cannot get the show in your area pay for audible. For those of us who like to save all the programs for later viewing like we do our favorite TV shows on our DVRs, I will try to help out. :)

It's like I said in the other thread, the people on YT upload the shows for free, they don't ask a penny, and they do a great job for the fans. And again...if SiriusXM won't promote the boys, the fans are forced to promote them themselves.

On the other hand, you'll get freeloaders like me who have never paid a cent for O&A and won't anytime soon. Then again, SiriusXM is such shit that I'd never fork over a penny to those bastards.

I feel bad for those who cannot subscribe (overseas) and sites like this were the only way for those to listen. There's a huge amount of listeners in the UK and Australia.

Let me fix that for you (automated comment unflipper) FAQ

Any links to o&a fansites should automatically redirect to lemonparty, or is that an invasion of their privacy?

[deleted]

No way - I was using the web page Today to listen to the show...and have been for the past several months.

Edit - thanks for the link though

[deleted]

I am a little torn reading this thread.

Of course it sucks when an outlet for a show goes down, especially as mentioned elsewhere, when people who do not get the option to subscribe now have to find other means.

I subscribe, so I didn't use this provider, but I rediscovered O&A through full episodes on youtube (I listened to O&A on terrestrial back in the day when they were on WYSP in Philly). My rediscovering via free methods lead me to introduce O&A to my wife, and now we have a subscription, she has a radio in her car and I use the app on my android.

I agree that SiriusXM sucks as a whole, but just stealing the product isn't really going to get us what we want (which would be giving the boys more of what they want/need to continue to produce quality). Not putting money in SiriusXM just lets reinforces the idea that O&A don't drive subs, and aren't their flagship programs, much the way they treat Howard, the decade stations (which do very well), or just the "celebrity" shows they toss money at.

I don't have a great answer for how to support the guys best, beside getting them podcast numbers, but continuing to consume content and not pay really can't help them. They might complain, but their paychecks are not small, and they have an entire channel which gives people like Ron and Fez, Dr. Steve, Sam, etc, airtime, which is a pretty good thing (I'm not personally a fan of all the shows on the channel, but I am glad these shows have a chance). Their complaints are just like anyone who goes to work, you always want it to be better, no matter how good it is, and I'm cool with that, being passionate about your job is a good thing.

The other side of the coin is that, like I mentioned before, I became a sub by rediscovering via free means. So rather than completely remove these free means, I think a deal should be struck to release these old shows perhaps 7-10 days removed, you know after the on demand for subs run out. I think SiriusXM is short sighted. You can easily make it so free gets it much delayed, payed gets it now, everyone gets access and exposed. I think everyone can win that way.

Or....Aids?

I just used it earlier today that sucks. Good thing there is another reliable source.

It's a bit of a bizarre one. I was having difficulty downloading today's R&F, then the site disappears and now even his twitter is gone. It's all very suspicious.

Hope a more rapid R&F source than Sterngeek turns up soon!

The lawyers bagged him.

shit! even the teds twitter is down

Damn.

Fuck, how am I supposed to listen to the Sports Master and Peppy Hamburger now? I'm never near a radio when they're on.

yeah dawgsy same here i don't know how we are gonna get our fix.

ill just say a certain sam and dave fan uploads this struff on his forum/website...

[deleted]

O man I came here to make the same post tedsoanda was an amazing site. Could someone message me another site theg use if at all possible I hate the other one I know of

You will certainly be missed, Ted! I just wish I knew your email so I could get in contact with you. Discuss some shit in private.

Big fan.

-Roberto

FUCK, I need me some Ron and Fez. Can I get a PM if someone knows where to get R&F? Ted I loved you budday thanks for the uploads :(

The site was great. OK thank them for the hard work. However, I'm really in need of a new source for Ron and Fez. If anyone could PM myself a link, I would owe you... a solid.

[deleted]

[deleted]

Those bastards.

I'm not familiar with SiriusXM but I don't know if they archive the shows for users to listen or not. If they do, fine, just listen there, but Teds O&A made it really easy and convenient to download the episodes.

I can't really complain about Ted's, they had incredibly fast downloading speeds, and as I said below, they uploaded the episodes really fast, so I could wake up at 6 AM pacific, get the episodes by 7:10 on a good day, and head out to work listening to that day's show in the car. They really helped me listen to the show when I was out on the West Coast, and I really appreciate all the exposure they helped bring for the show.

SiriusXM is a shitty, terrible company who'll go head over heels to promote Howard, but pretend that O&A won't exist. O&A have to get exposure through online viral Youtube shows. And now the essence of their online exposure is being shut down by lawyers. It's sad and pathetic.

can i get a pm?

Damn, I just got into the show like a month ago and found that site via a google search. (It was one of the first results, which isn't the best thing for a site of such nature.)

Bummer, anyway, id like to join the masses and shamelessly request a link to an alternative if it exists. Thanks

The other source I have for the O&A doesn't carry R&F. Can I get a PM on where to find that? All of my old sources have dried up.

Thanks

Sorry to hear about TOAE. [email protected]

Sorry to hear about Ted but relax people there's like 3 other options still out there. Just find them.

I don't know how to get through the day without Ron and Fez, can I get a PM too?

This blows. "You bummers."

Fuck SiriusXM lawyers in the ass. I hope they step on AIDS needles, then shove their Cease and Desist letters up their dickholes, sideways.

We should send them a "Cease and go fuck your mother" letter.

yea there are other places to get R&F..unclepaul

Dude I'd really appreciate a PM if possible for some Ron and Fez. I've been searching for a fucking hour and can't find today's show! I've got a source for O&A but not them.

[deleted]

I used to have SiriusXM, until they fucked me out of 1 year subscription, fuck that company to no end

I'm extremely happy they are spending millions on lawyers and staff dedicated to save them thousands. Well done as usual.

Would appreciate a PM with a "legal" source of the 2013 OA, SS and JNS

Hey, can someone please give me an actual link where a friend of mine can listen to O&A online? She's a new fan and I'm attempting to help her out. Thanks, ya bastards.

Can someone hit me with a link to replace Ted's? I listen to O&A and R&F every day!

dm'd you edit: sorry people no Ron and Fez links.

Pm if have r&f source please?

[deleted]

Me too thanks tho

Me too?

Any chance you could DM me too? It would be much appreciated!

Please PM me a link.

I'd be so grateful for a PM too.

I always listened on the Youtubes or on Ted's. I am so sad to see them go. If anyone has a link PM me! I'm two months behind on listening.

Another likely fake account here...

I signed up just to ask. I normally don't keep up on OA message boards or redditt because I add nothing to any conversation...ever. I found another sight to listen on my own.

my apologies, I was just suspicious of new accounts yesterday due to all the lawyer nonsense.

No harm, I figured everyone was on high alert.

I'll blow someone for a pmmfor an RF link, no pause

I would love a pm for a ron and fez link. Someone help a poor grad student out?

ATLeut=RF

Ok i know i just signed up... i only heard of this reddit a month ago. but please PM me a link for Ron and Fez. I had been using Ted's site for everything. i can still get O and A, but i really need my pepperkeet and ronnie b fix. and the davey mac show. O and A is not a stand alone fruit it needs a ron and fez show to compliment it. so please PM a link. Much appreciation in advance.

moc tod yalperao

Wordsback yo.

Nice one! Should keep it to PM requests only, dawg.

Yeah but I'm not tellin any secrets, I'll keep it up as needed, as promptly as I can.

[deleted]

Yup, that's what happens when sites are brought out to the open. Shame.

Nope at midnight my payment didn't go through for my bill (which is due by end of the day on the 10th) because my credit card got stolen last week, my bad... Its up now and we will be around :P

You're mom's box.

He is mom's box? Odd.
