It's 2015, Ant just said he would love to do Stern. You may stop caring now.

This. It doesn't matter anymore.

Things done changed.

Opie still hates howard stern, its... uncomfortable.

Especially when you realize Howard is more listenable than OpieRaqio

Didn't Ant also say that radio beef thing was played up just for the show as well? You'd shit all over somebody on the air and be polite and shit when you saw them in the hall.

Ant have always said that he never really super-hated Howard. He always hated Mancow more and he's the number 1 on his shit list.

Also Ant was at some poker tournament and shook hands with Howard and they spoke about it on the air and it was fine, both opies and ants response to it was like "what you want me to do, punch him in the face?"

so the radiowar bit is probably over.

No need to bring out the bra-bombs then?

F U, AB-U, WE HATE YOU MOTHA HUCKAZZZZ

when ant started his podcast and was goofing on stern's kid and talking about how awful it is she'd be dating a black guy, or confirming her drug overdose i don't think stern has or would ever give a fuck about ant on his show. why he did it in the first place, he probably thought he was going to kick some ass with his initial subs ... now ...

O&A was always a stepping stone. And O&J Is a headstone.

You were too proud of yourself with this little quip. Knock it off.

He sat back, kicked his feet up, and interlocked his fingers behind the head...

nodding and smiling to himself like a mongoloid...

And that's how you executive comment.

HUGE fan of Louis and all, just saw him live and thought it was great, and I'm a Howard fan too...but that whole list is a little douche-chilly.

I mean I was following Louie since 1998 and he hit a real rough patch there circa 2006-2009ish (not to mention 2000-2004ish) and Louie straight up developed material on O&A. Howard wouldn't have him on until he hit it big, and I'm pretty sure Howard talked shit about him as a comedian at the time.

I mean Muhammad Ali? Really?

I don't know if I can continue liking Louis after seeing that picture.

Most of that was probably GQ's idea

GQ = Gay queers?

That would be less gay than the actual title almost

He looks like mr slave in that second picture

jesus

Jeeezusss chrriiiiisst

Yeah I like louis ck (just saw him live) but this is.... I don't know. This isn't okay.

Well, Garry Shandling IS fucking hilarious.

That is accurate. I remember when Jimmy was cast on Lucky Louie and I really wanted to hear Louie on O&A and he wasn't coming on for awhile

Louis has always been a bit of a hipster but his anger use to cancel it out. Now that he has mellowed, the guy is just pure cringe. That list and the GQ picture was a gigantic "YUCK!!" for me. No one would ever call him out on it except Patrice. I miss Patrice.

Ali is an inspirational dude, to be fair

Reposting my comments from another thread:

What should he thank O&A for? "Thanks for the awkward 40 minute ball washing the last 3 times I was in. Remember when we used to be friends and just talk?" And Howard has been good to him lately, so I don't think it's nefarious to thank him. He thanked O&A when they helped him, they're not helping him anymore (besides uncomfortably fawning over him when he's in, "you're sooooo famous!")

He was doing them a favor the last half dozen times he was in. He doesn't have to thank them for 2007 on his 2015 special

Word! That shit is embarrassing when someone big comes on the show that doesn't know the show at all, and then Opie says "You're A Big Star" 4 times within the first 3 minutes of the interview.

I do cringe when he has to at least once say to a big star, "You guys come when you are on the way up and then ye are huge and we don't see you." It is really unfair to guilt trip people like that all the time and put them in an uncomfortable position. If they come on the show, great. If they don't come on the show, just move on. You got 4 hours a day of radio to fill, they are doing you a favor by coming on and killing some time.

Would you want someone named "Opie" on your thank you list either?

HEY! IT's NOT HIS FAULT HE HAS TO BE CALLED OPIE!!! He was given that nickname as a child, and even though "he Hates it", he's stuck with it! Haven't you heard that 100 times?

Nevermind when he got into radio, the GM asked him if he wants a radio name and he said Call Me Opie! But for Years he's tried to sell us that bullshit excuse about how he hates that name, but he's stuck with it since he's had it since he was a kid.

The only way that's true is if his very first GM in his first radio show said What do you want to be called? And he said call me Gregg, and the GM said I can't call you Gregg. I sent a private investigator to look into your childhood and they determined that someone probably called you Opie once or twice when you were young, so now I declare that you're radio name will be Opie for as long as you have a radio career! Muah Ha Ha!

I guarantee you Todd on Breaking Bad was called Opie growing up, he shook it, and he looks way more like a young Ron Howard than BitchTits ever did

If he wanted to be called Gregg he would be. Fact is that he had built a brand with "Opie" and he can say he hates it all he wants, but he built a brand with it. Own it.

Even before it was cool to hate Opie, Everytime he mentioned that he hates his name but can't change it, I always got so annoyed that neither Opie nor Jimmy would speak and call bullshit on that. Just like they do everyone else! You know, since they take pride in honest radio!

I honestly believe that if he changed his name back to Gregg Today! The only people that give a shit are the O&J fans, and the Opie haters. I really think he believes that if he Cha ged his name back to Gregg, it would cause a ruckus in Hollywood, and all the big names and A-Listers would wonder Hey! What happened to Opie??

I would at least have a little bit of respect for him if he went with Gregg and Jim...

"Opie is a brand nowwww" ugh. fuck you, knick-knack peddler to the delusional

Opie started using that name because he wanted to be a whacky radio guy. Anything else is a lie.

Listening to old shows it's painfully obvious that Oqie was desperately seeking attention with the Stern beef. I doubt Howard paid much attention to them.

Louie's always had some of the strangest "Thank You" selections in his specials. There's usually a ton of different comics (ranging from Nick DiPaolo to Todd Barry and Gary Gulman to George Lopez) , comedic idols (Woody Allen, Pryor, Carlin, Cosby) and then random people like Muhammad Ali, Billie Jean King, David Lynch, Joe Namath, and Barrack Obama.

If it's any consolation, he DID thank O&A in his 'Shameless' special.

While I don't give a fuck if he thanked Opie and Anthony, that list was made by a self important cunt.

Opie may have a point about guests becoming too big for the show.

Both Opie and Anthony always kind of mentioned him in that conversation, like when Amy Schumer was brought up. It'd be great to see video of the studio when Jay Mohr trashed Louis CK a few years back because they were both very silent

He's just an idiot for being offended by it.

Is Opie crying yet, about not getting thanked? I think he's his own worst enemy.for years now, He'll have a guest on. And he somehow has Romantic delusions about how it was more than just an interview, they actually connected and became friends with that actor! And then the same actor gets casted in another decent movie, but if he doesn't come back and again, do the show that said yes to him and gave him that exposure, then Fuck him! We'll add him to list list of people who needed us so Bad when they were trying to promote a shit movie. So we have the guy on and we become friends with him. But the next big movie he does, he acts like we're not even alive! He loves to act like these Huge A-List Actors have his show to thank because they were interviewed for 5 minutes, 15 Years Earlier!

I can't think of One single actor who would want to go out of their way to get interviewed by a show host that mother fucked him for not coming in for their last movie! Another Thing! Even if Ooie finds out the actir is Only doing television interviews, Opie Still goes off on them and tells them on the air how fucking stupid they are for not doing their radio show that "Potentially" reaches a million people!

Louie: "Pam, will you NOW have sex with me?"

Pam: "No"

He better actually know Terence Crawford personally otherwise I want to spit in his ginger face.

...ok ...and?

He didn't thank Woody Allen either. Fucker.

That movie was a fucking steaming pile of shit.

Woody should stick to fucking Asian children.

Blue jasmine was shit?

No. No it wasn't.

I really liked Blue jasmine. Louis sucked in it though. He almost ruined the movie.

Jesus, no he didn't

Dice clay was amazing but I felt Louis was badly casted. He was really good in American Hustle.

So?

Hoo Hoo I invented Louis CK robin!

Its funny reading this, because all the people who mention Louis to me like hes the hottest ticket in town, I kinda laugh at them and tell them how ive known about Louie when he was down in the dumps and just being a normal guy. I think he forgot where he came from. But good for him.

I don't care about this, I just wanna talk about how this is a remarkably weak special. I'm getting really fucking sick of the same two wacky impersonations he rolls out for everybody.

hoo hoo

THAT MOTHERFUCKER

It's probably a money thing. Those guys are probably invested in some of his projects, this one, his TV show, or whatever else. Just relax....

Yeah Muhammed Ali funded his latest comedy store special.

Yeah that's exactly what I thought, and meant. Muhammed Ali funded his latest comedy store special. That's exactly what I meant.

Can you imagine how much this is killing Opie? I almost feel bad.

Has Louis even been on the show since Ant's firing?

Given Ant's recent comments it's plainly apparent that the Stern hate-on was always opie's obsession, which falls in complete sync with his raging needy inferiority complex. So you can stop banging the faggot bitch drum now if you want to pretend that you're cool, lol

O&A never did anything to advance Louie's career. Or anyone's career.

To be fair Louie developed a lot of bits on O&A. Ive listened to all his appearances and I've noticed a lot of bits from his specials sorta hashed out on the show. As far as publicity wise Louie was not big when he first started going on the show. The whole Donald Rumsfeld thing was big news.

This business really is a hoot, huh. The guy thanks Muhammad Ali (I guess because he liked him when he was a kid or something...I could never see myself thanking Michael Jordan or Don Matingley on anything I did where I had to make a thank you list for an accomplishment)

When Louie use to do the show, like many have said, before he got huge...it was fucking magic. The guy asked Donald Rumsfeld if he was an alien lizard or whatever WHAT OTHER SHOW COULD YOU DO THAT ON?

Does anyone remember that one night, maybe like 07 or so, when Louie did a saturday night show at like 9pm or whatever. It was really weird/cool It was only him. He took a valium half way through it.

Wow what a different guy.

Stern is great. Opie is the one who perpetuated and inflated the supposed "radio war", and given the fact that Opie is a pathological liar who indulges in grandiosity, let's take Ant and Louis' word over his.

Damn Right! Not only was Opie the one that Always talked shit about Howard, that little cunt scab Never had the balls to follow through with his jealousy fueled bad mouthing of Howard! He would talk shit about Howard for Five minutes straight, while Ant & Jimmy sat there quietly and uncomfortably. And after Opie was done crying about what Howard stole from the company and the times he ripped off the company, He would end the shit talking with "But Hey' More Power To Him! If he can get that kind of deal, then more power to him"!

One of my favorites. Every time Opie got in trouble by management for what he said or did, Opie would get that annoying high pitched, whiny, bitch voice and throw Ant & Jimmy under the bus and say "Why did you single me out? Ant & Jimmy were saying it to! Plus, You're paying a guy a Half Billion Dollars, while he's suing the company! And he's a part timer at best!! When are you gonna say something about what HE says and does? Why is it only Me that gets in trouble!??

thank me,or else..

Muhammad Ali? Yeah,I'm sure he really helped you out. Eww douchechills.

Louis is like the Opie of stand up. I remember being so embarrassed for him when he was always doing his 'cunt coming out of a ccunt' bit, he was so proud of it. I guess it's clever if you're 10.

Even Ari Shaffir trashed his shitty show. You know something is bad when even a fellow comic will go after it.

Which show did he trash?

I listen to Ari's podcast and have never heard anything but praise for Louie

It was on one of his appearances on Joe Rogan's podcast.

Hey now, I'm sure Ali inspired him when he was doing the boxing training for this special.

The Opie of standup? Pretty sure that's Jeff Dunham or Dane Cook

More like an obscure female open micer in bowling green, ky

You can't compare Bonnie to Opie like that!

I would rather listen to an obscure female open mic-er because they have a chance of being good, rather than where I know Dunham is dogshit

Id rather listen to Bonnie than Dunham too.

What happened to Dane Cook? A couple years ago, he was selling out Arenas within 3 minutes! Now it seems like he has no Juice anymore.

Yes the list has a douche-chill in Muhammad Ali, and another in the boxing club. No, I don't think he has a responsibility to thank a defunct show, nor the current one. I don't remember him being on as of yet (and he probably would prefer not to go on if he knows what's good for him). I doubt Jim would sully their friendship by asking him to do the show he complains to Louie about at the Cellar.

And as a side-note, this special was far superior to the last one, which I think was the weakest of his entire career.

I also think the fastest way for Op to kill himself would be to show him audio of Jimmy and Louie shitting on O&J.

This is like ripping apart the thank you section in an album. Jesus, could you nit pick more? Who the fuck bitches about credits?

"OMG, Dave Grohl didn't thank Jack Black in his credits, and he was totally lucky to have been in Pick of Destiny, what the fuck, man..."

Garry Shandling is the unfunniest old piece of boring that's ever seeped out of hollywood.

Jesus! I didn't know Gary Shandling was still alive! I used to watch the Gary Shandling Show as a kid in the 80's.

He was just in the Winter Soldier last year. If you haven't seen it, it's an excellent movie

I do cringe when he has to at least once say to a big star, "You guys come when you are on the way up and then ye are huge and we don't see you." It is really unfair to guilt trip people like that all the time and put them in an uncomfortable position. If they come on the show, great. If they don't come on the show, just move on. You got 4 hours a day of radio to fill, they are doing you a favor by coming on and killing some time.
