I'm not listening to "The Opie Show".

Perhaps Opie and Anthony made a decision a year ago to separate and thats why Opie took a more assertive role on OnA over the last 18 months. Opie got rid of RnF for a West Coast feed (while Tim Sabean who played the fool for years on Stern ran the channel, not weird at all) took part in the transformation of OnA into "The Opie Show". I'm sure a hundred bucks and a ham sandwich a day will keep Jimmy around.

Most positive feedback for the show this week seems to be for the amount of comics they have had on the show.Take guests out and you have two guys talking to each other uncomfortably about the old days.

Imagine a two hour bit on fast food restaurants with just Jim Sam and opie! i think Jimmy will be asking for a fucking big raise if he has to put up with this for two years.

They comprehensively burnt their way thru all the good phone-numbers in four days flat.

Most anyone can make radio with Bennington, Vos and Quinn, the biggest of big guns, sitting in the room, it's the week after, or the week after that. If they are relying on comedy pals to do all their fucking heavy-lifting everyday from here till October they'll not even get close.

Signing any new contract based on two guys with little in common, awkwardly and self-consciously trying to make stilted conversation ... then it'd just be about taking/stealing the money one last time.

I'm not listening to "The Opie Show".

Awesome, nobody gives a shit.

Really is that why earlier this week Opie made a huge deal about Ron and fez not being on the channel anymore and told Ron he wants the show back, and never really wanted it to leave? Kdkid you're a fucking dope. Stop listening then. Why do you have to tell everyone about it? And if you think this was all one big scheme to separate the show you're even dumber then I thought.

Afternoons was all Opie from the start. He wanted the timeslot because his wife was nipping his head about not being able to go out late. Sabean wanted the slot for LA scum. Ant & Jim saying fuck off was definitely not in any of their scripts.

And that was then.

And this is now - with the guy that carries a ton of the weight suddenly gone from the show, and people looking for reasons to keep subscribing, too right he wants Ron & Fez back on the old 'SiriusXM Talk'. Solo Hughes knows he can't fill his own show, never mind what he used to laughingly call, his channel.

He's a drowning man grasping at anything, too right he'll ask for an Unmasked to replay, or for Ron to come back from the shitty computer generated clip channel he helped exile him to.

Reheated Weird Medicine on the weekend and an awkward 2/3rds of a show ain't the dollar value proposition it once was. Not with a new contract to be negotiated.

Now blow me and be on your way.

Opie never said anything about wanting to move to afternoons. He wanted to stay in the mornings. Show me the audio of Opie saying he would rather so afternoons. You sir are full of fucking shit. Also they never wanted R&F to leave. Go listen to the old shows jackass.

He was all over afternoons. He was the instigator, along with his 'radio-man' partner in crime Sabean. They had fat greedy eyes on the R&F slot for different reasons. Opie was tired of mornings, he said it on the show. Sabean wanted to move away from the Stern timeslot. For fucks sake.

As for the perversely delusional notion currently occupying your skull that you believe I am now going to spend the next 5 days rewinding months worth of shows to retrieve the clips for you is completely inexplicable. I don't work for you, you fucking maniac.

And all because you were too autistic or oblivious to understand the perfectly clear words and implications you were hearing coming out the radio the first time around. The rest of us all heard and understood, so it's your fucking problem, not mine. Listen to the fucking show sometime, and properly this time, not with your mouth stuffed full of noisy cocks.

Now less back-chat from you, cunt, do you understand me?

Yup Opie who hates Howard was in cahoots with sabean to move the show to afternoons to help Stern out. You have lost your God damn mind. Opie said he hates getting up but even said it would be bad for the show to move time slots now and they all said they wouldn't do it. Ron and fez were moved to get a West coast feed you idiot and probably to help a dying channel rawdog. You're a delusional asshole that has more conspiracies worked up in his head than Jesse Ventura.

Who mentioned Opie helping Howard? I didn't. It's that basic listening and reading comprehension problem we were just talking about.

Opie wanted afternoons for his household reasons. Sabean, and Sirius management, wanted new talk content spread across the day, for their reasons.

The fact that two people want the same thing for different reasons is generally not a difficult concept for most people to grasp. Why you are struggling with it here is not clear.

Opie was all for afternoons, met with Sabean, helped cook it up, and was audibly blind-sided by the resistance he was met with when he presented it as if it was a done-deal.

So where do we go from here?

You are clearly not gonna get any smarter in the next few hours, so my suggestion is instead you try being a bit quieter. You are not equipped for this argument, and the more you thrash about like this, the sillier it makes you look.

Yeah I'm sure Opie was meeting with Tim sabean behind the scenes by himself to get the times moved and I'm sure you out of all these people would know about these meetings right? Shut up. No such thing happened. You have no proof of anything except this shit conspiracy that you've worked up in your head. So if they moved R&F to get to afternoons why did it never happen? And why do I remember the entire show including Opie saying they'd never change time slots. R&F were moved so people on the west coast would get Opie and Anthony as there morning drive because before there were a lot of complaints. Even Rogan complained on his podcast that Ron and fez would screw up morning drive on the west coast for Opie and Anthony fans. So shut up or show some proof beyond your speculation. The show never. moved and Opie in fact wants Ron and fez back but you already have a conspiracy for that too. Also Opie would rather work mornings and compete with Howard. You really think once Tim explained in the Opie that he wants to move the show to afternoons so it doesn't compete that Opie would be okay with that? Are you fucking high? I never said anything about Opie helping Howard. I just want to know if you think Opie would actually help Tim get the show changed after hearing times reasoning and I say you're fucking wrong.

Say Opie more you paragraph avoiding cunt.

Sorry for not spacing shit out correctly for you when I'm using a god damn app on a phone to access this. Not real worried about proper punctuation at that point. Using a phone to do this is hard enough. Still waiting on how you know about all these meetings between just Opie and Sabean, and audio of Opie saying he wants to do afternoon drive again, or proof as to why they moved R&F outside of the reasons given. You sir are full of fucking shit.

No I just told you, you go back and pull the audio for yourself you lazy fucker. You're the bewildered cunt that sat there and missed it and misread it first time round. You don't get rewarded for that, you get punished, go find the clip, boy.

Everything I have said is directly from what occurred on the air, and what subsequently transpired ... You on the other hand seem to be somewhat of an oblivious cunt that struggles. Hence the fetish for type-written, notarized 'proof'.

For the most part it doesn't happen like that, what you need to do is read between the lines, and use a sharp brain to unravel the nuance, that's what the smart guys do all the time; the dopes sit there looking like Bobo, blank-eyed and non-comprehending, noisily demanding someone post non-existent minutes from a meeting.

Now is this going to go on for much longer, as fascinating as it is, or have you witlessly repeated what you wanted to say enough times already?

Why should I find the clip when I clearly remember Opie saying he'd only do mornings. You're the one that says otherwise so no you pull the audio of this, but because it never happened you can't. The show never moved. Reading between the lines and nuances? You mean like moving Ron and fez so Opie and Anthony would be available to people on the west coast for morning drive? You're a dope. So how do you know these meetings between Opie and Sabean took place? Because of some nuanced thing Opie said on air? Are you being serious right now? You're fucking stupid. You're getting worked up about something that never even happened or anything the show would agree with. Nobody is backing up anything you're saying. You Ron and fez fanboy faggots get annoying with your conspiracies. Maybe Ron and fez were moved to rawdog because the show sucks and the direction of the show lately is even worse. I'm sure Jesse Ventura talks about reading between the lines when it comes to other conspiracies as well. Nothing you've said it true or even provable. Just shut up already.

That's your second absolutely unread reply that you've wasted your time with now. Get a proper computer, or use a fucking browser. Or better still, sit down and shut the fuck up.

That's all we get from you: the text is lumbering, facile and perfectly slow-witted. You just are not an entertaining writer, you lack the style and flair to encourage people to keep reading. You're the Opie of messageboard posting.

I confidently have zero expectation that there's any hidden gems of worthwhile insight waiting for me in that block of characters.

Just gimme the quick summary, did you saying anything at all with any novelty, or was it just the same as before, again?

This repetitive thing of yours, it definitely starts to look "last-word freakish" ... you don't have anything new to offer up, but can't leave it cos you don't want to be seen to back down to this non-existant audience you believe is watching. So you just keep retyping the same thing in a different order. That's kinda tragic son.

TL;DR you no proof, nuanced, reading between the lined faggot shut up already. You're wrong. No one agrees with you. Find me Opie saying he wants afternoons or fuck off. I'm done.

"shut up already" he argued.

You were done the minute you started this, you were just too fucking stupid to realise it. Everyone agrees with me, we had a big meeting, I said you were a dopey cunt, everyone agreed.

Last word, eh? On you go ... fill in the blank space.

No proof? Shows still on in the morning. Possible return of R&F. I'd say I've only been right.

You do realise when I tell you to do the last word thing, and you obediently keep doing it, you do realise I am mocking you and trying to make you look foolish?

For a guy in an argument with a guy that accuses you of being oblivious to tone and motive, this shambolic behaviour doesn't help you.

Last word goes here, reply again and take it.

Is this how you act when you're wrong?

Yes actually I am since Opie talked about it when Ronnie B. was in studio this week. Go listen to the audio jackass. I can't believe you think Opie actually has the power to move shows whereever he wants. How ignorant. Do you understand how 20 billion dollar corporations operate? I garuntee you a decision like that went through management first. None of this was a hoax to get Anthony fired either. How can you even believe that? And how would they even predict this outrage that lead to his firing? Shut up stupid.

You're an idiot. Yes they came up with this a year ago so they could get Anthony out of his contract a mere 3 months before its up anyway. How fucking stupid can somebody be? If they wanted to split don't you think they'd just let there contracts up in October and not resign? Then they could jus go there separate ways. You're a dummy. R&f hate being on rawdog and Ronnie b. agreed with Opie he wants to be back on the same channel. Just stop talking. You don't know anything.

I like the idea of the two of them doing solo shows for a while, I listened for Ant, I cant stand op, but I get he has his audience and I definitely want to see the Opie Anthony Jim trio return.

hopefully this will give them all a brief break, this year has been awful radio. I don't remember any show this year that was anything more than above average. This might have given them the reality check they needed. A few months to a year of them doing their own thing then getting back together for their own independent O/A show run by would be great
