Erock fucking stunk. Guy doesn't have a funny bone in his body. No wonder the Opester hired him. They need a producer with a fucking comedy background for Christ's sake, enough of this shit. How do you staff up a comedy talk show with people that have zero background or ability in comedy.
Im plenty relaxed. It's been 10 years of him, so it's a little late now to be freaking out. Im just saying what seemed painfully obvious from about minute one to me. Im not even saying I don't like Erock, he seems like a nice enough fella. Im sure he'd do fine on an NPR show or rock station, but as far as being one of the people producing a talk comedy show, he is not the right guy for that job. You've seen The Virus, the fucking guy couldn't even come up with one joke. "Howard had Richard and Sal, look who I got..."
I just pray that Roland is still there to keep stocking the show with more C-List use to be's and who gives a shit's.
That way Opie can coddle Roland every time he literally starts crying on mic because upper management is stressing him out. Never mind the stress on his heart.
It's not old, it's the only thing with interesting new content that has to do with the O&J show. How're Opie's new tweets and embarrassing statements old? Also, there's lots of topics, stop being a baby. You whine and don't contribute, you're the cancer. There's plenty of other topics on the sub's front page right now, go enjoy
Why Sam has a job is beyond me. What does he do? He does not produce like Steve C used to, I never hear any production anymore.
I somewhat respected him when he did his own freeform post show every day.
Now he does a gay ass clip show, with nothing but Snowy the trucker, and constant ballwashing of bad bits and uneducated interviews that Opie and Jim slobbered their way through.
Sam is smarter than Opie, and at least does prep for his interviews, love him or hate him
It seems minor but wouldn't the distinguished Mr Nagel have changed his Twitter profile so it didn't include "Erock on Opie w Jim Norton" if he was gone? I refuse to believe it.
Assuming that Erock is still there. Is Erock still the highest ranking staff member? I remember Erick always being Executive Producer, and Sam was the Associate Producer. And then I heard Sam mention a hundred times that Sam is now an Executive Producer.

Why are they hiring a board operator? isn't that what Opie does.
8 ZombieKetchup 2014-09-25
I can understand why Sam has a job but why does Roland have a job still and not Erock?
Aside from him being an annoying foodie the guest bookings haven't really knocked me over in the last year.
Getting rid of Erock is bullshit.

hire davey Mac and black Earl as producers. it's the only way to save the show.

You'd still have to listen as Opie constantly cuts them off and steamrolls through their conversations to get to a Lady Di call.

I don't understand how anyone could have empathy for Roland.

The fact that this is a "fan board" and no knows who's actually still there is soooo fucking telling!!!
14 Moh7 2014-09-25
Actual fan here.. There's no point in even coming to this sub.
No honestly, what's the point? No one discuses anything other then how bad the Opster is.
I can hear that while listening to the show, I don't need people to discuss it non stop.
I think the opster hate got old
17 jred2k 2014-09-25
If you can find something else during that 3-hour show that is discussion worthy then start a thread.

So are they equals in pay and or rank?
1 DerpSherpa 2014-09-25
I wondered about this as well but assume Erik has seniority based on time employed.
