Listening to Opie talk about building a toy
7 2015-01-21 by Rootser
Holy shit. How incredibly boring. 20 minutes of Opie trying to get the point across that Rich Vos did, indeed, buy a complicated toy. The entire bit is based on how funny it is that Rich Vos bought a 4 year old a complicated toy that the audience can't see.
Opie, you don't know comedy. You don't even seem to know what would make for a good conversation. Stop picking topics. Give the entire creative focus of the show to Jimmy and get back on your sound board. Don't worry, you can still insult people as a board op, you've been doing it for decades.

"NICE TRY WITH THE HATE, FUCKFACE! God these haaaaters just don't fucking get it! I hardly EVER talk about my fuhhhhhhkin kids and when I do, I make sure it is good stuff and not just 'who gives a fuck' stories. Look, I don't know what to tell ya. I don't know what to tell ya. If you don't like the show LISTEN TO SOMETHING ELSE. Or do something better than me! Where's your radio show, huh? Where's your radio show! WHERE'S YOUR RADIO SHOW, SMART GUY! I'm so suck of the FUHKIN HATERS WHO JUST DON'T GET IT!"

All that is missing is Jimmy getting cut off between pauses.
Opie: "If you don't like the show LISTEN TO SOMETHING ELSE!" (weird pause, like he wants another person to voice in)
Jim: let me help out Ope, poor guy tries his hardest "Yeah, dude, see-
Opie: "OR DO SOMETHING BETTER THAN ME! Where's your radio show, huh?"
Jim: oh maybe he didn't realize I was trying to back him up, let's give that another shot "Exactly, I mean, how-"
Opie: "WHERE'S YOUR RADIO SHOW, SMART GUY!"
Jim: ok, he's just angry. let's interject some 'Rational Jim' he can really put things in perspective "The thing is, we-
Opie: I'm so sick of the FUHKIN HATERS WHO JUST DON'T GET IT!"
Jim: (resigned Jim) "Yeah, man...(sigh)...yeah"

Why is the transcribed show so damn good?

because you can't hear Opie

If this is what it's like, Jim's gonna snap. And it will be glorious, because those two deep down don't like or know each other. Nothing has been resolved or changed since the last time they fought on air.
I can't be bothered to download the show, to hear Jim's voice, to see if i can see how annoyed he is, but just know, he's gonna snap. It's inevitable.

I could hear that upwards inflection in Jimmy's "... yeah..." clear as day it's happened so many times.

If Ant was around, you'd have 15 minutes of Opie-kid talk, followed by Ant and Jimmy discussing robots in the military, Ant's drones, stuff going on in Japan, and future-Jimmy. This robot stuff could have gone off in a more interesting direction, but without Anthony, future-Jimmy doesn't exist.

The man is a retard. It comes with instructions on how to put it together. He simply couldn't do it so he blames Rich.

Opie is the worst kind of person to have as a father. Does anyone remember, as a child, how soul-crushingly disappointing it was when your parents couldn't work something out for you?
Events such as these, early in life, are crucial contributors to a child's respect for/faith in their elders. Opie's children will grow up to be Opie-haters and that, well... that's just fine.

He doesn't even bring kid stories to the show that much.
Nice try on the hate tho
3 callmesnake13 2015-01-21
Yeah I don't mind so much when he talks about his kid because at least it gives him something to talk about. Otherwise all he does is vaguely talk about movies/books he probably didn't consume and vague references to trips to Philly.
2 IggysGlove 2015-01-21
You gotta be kidding me. I know I was.
3 callmesnake13 2015-01-21
He really doesn't, compared to how often he used to talk about the kid. This is the first time in a while. And yeah, I prefer him speaking honestly about something he has experience with than pretending to have experience with it, or deferring to someone else to know what opinion to have.

20 Minutes? You must just be on the first show, strap in because it keeps going.

The 'how to' build video IS ON FUCKING YOUTUBE! You know, the place where he obsessively checks his "numbahs" and uploads fat videos.
It took 2 seconds to find! I mean fuck... It's 2015, there should be no questions, only google! Also the video is less than 15 minutes and that includes the unboxing. How long did this dummy work on it again?
5 DeryDerpette 2015-01-21
I hope the listeners realise and have always realised that Rich Vos is smarter than Opie.
3 Moxson4 2015-01-21
Does Jimmy act like he's genuinely interested in what Opie is talking about? I'm afraid to ask, but does Jimmy laugh at Opie's jokes?
