It's kind of repetitive.

Why have an "accelerated show" followed right after by a best of the week? It just doesn't make sense to me. Why not throw on the repeat of #Bennington instead? I want to hear what i missed in the early show.

edit: a word or two.

ME: 1) If you don't like it listen to something else HATER. 2) Is this today's PROBLEM?? 3) Just because I'm a terrible radio personality doesn't mean I'm a bad father. 4) Management actually LOVES the direction of the show, nice try on the hate though.

You know these things, no?

Dont listen to them E-rockComment, he is just mad because its easier to hate and harder to create something. And thats the 'haps.

It's harder to create something like I do. Such as my logo that I ripped off from Run DMC.

Lol, forgot about the management loves the direction of the show. Fucking corporate shill.

Sam must have came up with that name, Accelerated sounds like the name of a WWE pay-per-view

Hey, don't you be a hater and stop Opie from reinventing himself!

Face! Face! Face!

I like the accelerated show. It lets me hear some of the shows in miss over the weekend. I just don't think we need a best of the week (long version) after best of the week (condensed version).

ME: Stop acting like you, the listener knows better than me, the host knows what the listener wants to hear.

I sold 2 T shirts last month you fuck, so fuck off, and management loves the show since I got Ant fired ahem I lost my dear cohost, you know the one holding me back who I hoped would die, because they always loved him, not me meee mee,him not me, Not fair!!!!!!

Fuck you haterz!

Here's the philosophy behind Accelerated:
In today's media landscape most people (including the SXM management) won't listen to a full three hour show five days a week. However most will have time to listen to an hour of content.

Since it's the only hour that your bosses might listen to, you want to make sure it's your best stuff. Although you've been working in radio for almost 30 years, unfortunately it's impossible to find sixty minutes out of the 12+ hours of radio you do each week that could be considered quality material. Lucky for you the channel that bears your name broadcasts other shows (in addition to the show you host) that you can use content from whenever there's not enough good material from your own show to fill an hour of quality material.

Accelerated is nothing more than something Opie can use to demonstrate to the bosses and others that everything is going great without Anthony.

I thought this was gonna be about the ridiculous amount of Opie threads, holy shit enough already.

2  AngeloMacon 2014-10-31

The show is called OpieRadio, what the fuck else are threads going to be about?

1  aso513 2014-10-31

That's the channel, the show is Opie & Jimmy. Not one person here comments on Jimmy, it's all just non-stop Opie discussion. We get it already, you hate him.
