Enough of the Bridges of Madison County Shit

1  2014-01-14 by [deleted]

I'm a half-hour into day 2 of bridges of madison county shit-talking and im tempted to just turn it off. Keep phoning it in guys.

51 comments

Yeah, I have to say these lazy cunts can't be bothered to organise a decent show...they basically admitted it outright at the beginning of today's.

No the worst was Opie forcing cheese jokes for an eternity

Exactly. And when Jimmy brought up another topic (Silk Road, I believe) Opie just cut him off and went right back to the cheese jokes.

Jim Anthony and Sam could have a great show by themselves without Opie forcing a shitty bit down our throats and he rest of the guys have to cower because he's the boss

I used to defend Opie, but as time goes on it's abundantly clear that he has lost his ability to focus the show on funny bits or conversations. His ability to maintain order and navigate the course of the show is there, but he brings up topics that are completely uninteresting and lack any semblance of humor. Then, if anyone seeks to deviate from the course, he forces the show back toward the shitty topic.

No one wants 25 minutes of truck drivers calling in with fucking cheese puns! And just because the boys goof on the shitty callers doesn't make it entertaining.

Let's hear about more truckers hormone replacement therapies. John you're on the line.

It was so brutal and you could hear Sam in the background saying things like "C'mon" or hear Jim and Ant wanting it to end but they were being good sports

Did they ever go back to talking about Silk Road? I had to stop listening after the cheese bit

No, why would they? A multi billion dollar anonymous online drug market that involves murder solicitations, grad students and libertarianism is far less interesting than fucking cheese Puns and a 20 year old romance movie aimed at recent retirees in loveless marriages.

To be fair, that "muenster" line was solid gold

He can't run a gouda ship anymore.... his timing is munsterous.... I mean, Ant and Jim are sharp while Opie just makes me blue... I'd rather listen to that Romano guy (Ray) or even Brie Olson.

Maybe a little cheesy but hardly worth a downvote.

Everything Opie contributes is terrible whether its his kid, the Philly crew, the cheese jokes, or bridges of madison county

Yeah, but when he talks about his tragic childhood . . . it's like jumping off the Comedy cliff into a sea of laughter.

Only thing worse than watching a shitty movie from the 90s is listening to people relive their experiences about watching a shitty movie from the 90s. Holy shit.

I don't understand how they haven't realized this. 15 minutes of jokes - sure, but it's going on two days now.

And then they move on to the cheese jokes...

Yeah. Don't get me wrong, I like when they talk about some movies. When they talked about Taken and Independence Day it was hilarious cause they were debating if it was good or not and they are movies that most guys have seen and have an opinion about. Talking about a movie that probably 90+% of their listeners never even saw is just not funny or interesting. Nobody is in on the joke.

Jim wanted to bring up the Silk Road and interesting comments but Opie keeps forcing terrible bits down our throats

I turned it off shortly after Opie cut Jimmy off to take more cheese jokes from truck drivers. They had no motivation and were content with streaming Bridges of Madison County content and getting bad puns from the callers. Fucking garbage.

Said it all today when Opie said after a caller contributed with the musical "Wow, thanks, this gives us at least another 20 minutes of material"

Yeah, how about you fucking come up with some? Jesus christ, two shows of this cunt seepage.

You take inspiration for Radio Gold where you can get it.

Don't worry they'll be great if they switch to doing a podcast.

Just stop listening you faggots.

Isn't this what old grannies talk about, anyways? Are you trying to say they tend to beat a subject to death?

I might have to count how many "Holy Fuck"s were said in yesterday's show. Really starting to bother me.

That bothers you?

So turn it off fuckwad. Believe it or not they don't tailor their show around what YOU like.

Nor do they give a shit

I love threads like this. You're absolutely right that O&A don't care about prepping for the show and they talk about whatever they want to. In my opinion, that's what makes this show great. That doesn't mean that I enjoy every topic they talk about. I hate most of the UFC and WWE talk, but there are other people that enjoy that.

The point of my post is to stop being a selfish retard thinking that every single minute of a 4-hour daily show has to be tailored to you. Sorry for repeating what others have said.

Exactly. I love the UFC and MMA talk, but I know nothing about football or baseball.

Thank you. People on here complain about fucking everything

I've noticed. I'm pretty new to this community, but have been listening to O&A for years. It seems like there are people on here that haven't liked the show in years but keep on listening anyways.

Yea I never understood why they listen for years if they dislike the show so much. Nothing is perfect but that doesn't mean the show sucks.

More often than not, especially these days, I have to turn it off.

sometimes they try to hard to force a bit, sometimes it feels like they want a classic bit and its just not working, they just dont give a shit as much.

This has been brutal. I get annoyed at all of the people who try to speculate about behind the scenes shit, but with them making fun of the media destination shit and actively pursuing cheese puns, it's been awful and I wouldn't be surprised if they finally move on. I really hope they do. Every other year is Opie playing tough guy who won't sign a contract but he sure goes back into that fucking studio day after day and screams about how the studio is shit.

It's worse when somebody calls in to call them on this shit and Opie claims that that's what the bit is about. Being annoying isn't something to be proud of.

If Scott and Todd or Eric and Cathy did cheese puns, they would be telling Sam to kill himself for bringing that shit in for Jocktober. "Hey, this is Cheesewheel McAsiagobreath, and you've just been the victim of a Gouda phone scam!"

I wouldn't be so annoyed if they simply knew what happened in the movie.

Do you know? And why would you want to?

Yes. I watch most movies that are phenomenons simply to try and understand what it is about them that people connected with.

What are you, some kinda FAAAGGG?

Technically since I'm a woman.

Touche... well then I'd say that the entire Bridges of Madison Country break was not aimed towards you, but rather the countless men who were forced to watch that movie by their significant others.

I wish I could understand why women think it's okay to force their guys to watch stuff they don't want to watch.

Go the fuck by yourself.

What happens?

Nice try.

Sorry, but I think it's funny.

You know why it's funny? It annoys the fans.

That's what good, edgy radio is supposed to do: Irritate everyone (even the fans).

You know why it's funny? It annoys the fans.

Exactly. When stuff like this happens, I think of all the fucking neckbeard rubes who are immediately frothing at the mouth and typing up a new unhinged rant on this sub about it. Undoubtedly, the boys think about it too. I loff and loff and loff.

Personally, I'd prefer edgy and entertaining (to everyone, especially fans) to edgy and boring. This Bridges crap was as entertaining as an audit.

It's less edgy if it's entertaining.
