Here's how Opie can bring the core audience back...

Don't ignore Anthony in 2015.
Start playing clips from Ant's show. Have Ant call in and give his thoughts regularly. Opie's been moving on with the show as if Ant died. Rather than trying to completely distance himself from the show of the past, why not use this shitty situation to create new bits?
Bits like:
-Treat all the freaks of the show (Bobo, Lady Nuoy) like free agents, make them prove their loyalties to the shows
-Ant could call in as different characters, even try using different voices to trick the boys
-Start teasing each other about the quality of their respective shows. Opie can brag about his big guests, Ant can brag about his naked chicks and so on.

Unless O&A truly hate each other, this is the best way to shed the awkwardness, and bring back his core fan base.

Management didn't like Ant before Time's Square because of his viewpoints and tirades, and Opie laps their asshole like a puppy dog. That's why no Ant, as much as any dislike Opie might have incurred for 4 hours a day * 20 years.

The real fan-hate for Opie comes from the fact he is all bark and no bite, all style and no substance, and is about as phoney as a dildo.

Just because he has no substance doesn't mean he's suddenly "all style". He has nothing at all. He's a huge goofy nerd who managed to miss being chill, funny, or smart. Opie is pretty much Rich Voss without somehow pulling a good line out of his ass once in a while, but his position protects him. It didn't used to. Even when the show first came to satellite radio a decade ago, Jim was still calling him out once in a while. But that got shut down hard and nobody will ever do it again. Instead, awkward silence trying to shuffle around Opie's giant diarrhea that he makes on himself and the surrounding airwaves. tsssss i bet he licks peckahs or somethin Whether he makes an obvious joke, a shitty one, or doesn't get something that's really funny, or doesn't understand an argument and starts screaming about something that makes no sense in order to interject himself, he's completely useless in every way. Whether it's a certain look or reputation, or something real, he's got nothing.

Woah woah lets not insult the authenticity of dildos

Dildos don't bleed when you chop em in half with an axe.

If Opie lets Ant call in I will cut him a lot of slack.

A lot of my hatred stems from Opies apathy towards Anthony who is the number one reason he is making the money he is and living the life he is living.

My username is a reference to Anthonys firing, I was tolerant of Opie before that point. How Ope and Jim distanced themselves from him post twitter tirade is fucking disgusting to me, Ant made both of them.

"My username is a reference to Anthonys firing"

Really?? I thought it referenced a very, very small camera.. You know.. that Ant's could use...

My username is a reference to Jackie Chan's mother... Maybe we're related!!!

You are a semen filled cunt, you could be my mother....

Fucking crazy right?

When did Opie ever attend one of Ant's parties, or just go to his house? When did Ant ever go to Opie's place and spend time hanging out? That isn't a sign of "close friends" who have worked together for 20 years. Accept the fact there is no more O&A. These "will they get back together" posts are old and always miss the main point, they don't give a fuck about each other.

If he killed himself on air I'd listen to the show for the rest of the week.

Too much this

Mom jeans? Seductive chick-like hip-swaying?

That audience had the excitement of a speed bump. Interesting comparison.

I thought this post was going to have an R. Budd Dwyer reference, but I've been proven wrong.

I thought it was going to be a suggestion to eat the end of a shotgun.

I'd never go back. What's been heard can never be unheard.

I see no benefit for Anthony doing any favors for opie. He's a Piece of shit and proves it time after time. Leaks a text conversation with Anthony to the blaze which is douchey enough, and it also gets ant in shit with a chick he was with. Sticks up for Troy like he's a radio genius but says "it's a tough spot" when it comes to Anthony's firing. I don't even need to mention his twitter or YouTube (I actually liked when it was "opies eye" - now it's hack shit). It's obvious Anthony and opie aren't on good terms because opie will not go on ants show for some reason, even a phone call or Skype. My guess is he will never be on at this point because it's a big thing now. And what exactly would he add? He's not funny or interesting. I rather Anthony have lady di in than opie.

O&A truly hate each other.

Opie posted this on his facebook.

O&A bits are coming back this year

It took 6 months and it was one of the stipulations of me staying with SiriusXM Radio Opie and Anthony bits are back on the Channel starting with Decade of Dominance. This will turn into a listener all Request Show that will be heard every friday.

Aka, no more benningtons after jelly tits quickly self destructed it once people enjoyed it more than his raqio program

Hopefully for the remaining subscribers it will also be the end of the Sam Roberts Show.

Wow - Fighting the brave fight to mandate pre-recorded audio instead of showing up for work.

If it was a stipulation in the current contract then why did it take 6 months? So if Sirius never allowed old content with Anthony, would Greggshells have walked? Sounds like another lie to me.

Nah as per Norton the company wanted to keep their distance from Anthony because his actions came right after the mike brown shooting and they were afraid of violence breaking out.

So it would make sense that they wanted to keep it all on the down low for this long.

What makes you think he wants the core fan base back?

You're back? Fuck

I would never leave this sub.

The show is dead. Move along, and get the fuck over it. The Anthony ballwashing isn't going to happen.
