Opie's Dr. Steve crutch

5  2015-03-25 by DocWheatley

I always liked Dr. Steve. But it seems like almost every day something slightly medical will come up and Opie will go "Maybe we should get Dr. Steve on the line." Sometimes Opie is ignored, which is nice, but a lot of the time they call Dr. Steve and waste 20-40 minutes of his time with their infantile medical questions. And its such an obvious "this will kill time" tactic from the Torpid Sloth.

He then gets to lord his status of World's Highest Paid Board Op over a nice man and consummate medical professional.

His interactions with Dr. Steve piss me off in the same way Opie's behavior with Denny pisses me off. Opie is in no way, shape or form better than those guys but he calls them up or brings them in to do his Mr. Bigshot "I've Been Doing This Since I Was 18" routine.

He acts like he's doing Dr. Steve a fucking favor. Oh do I loath when Dr. Steve is going into a very interesting explanation and Gregg interrupts because it's too boring or intellectual for his level of "shock-jockery."

Dr. Steve: "So one way they're finding they can help the body attack cancer cells--"

Gregg: "--where you at with big dongers?"

Dr. Steve: "I gotta take my kids to school..."

Doing the same thing that you did at 18 at 55 or whatever he is isn't something to be proud of in 99% of cases, unless your in the NBA or sumthin.

Even his brags are dumb as shit.

hey dr.steve one of our listeners says his dick is weird, explain.

It's like when Dr. Steve first gave them the homemade wine. Jim went on a tear for 10 minutes, giving a good-natured ribbing of why the wine sucks ("He tips the lawn mower over and collects the fluid, and splashes in grape soda for that authentic wine taste."). Meanwhile, Opie the entire time is fake laughing and saying with pressured speech "Take that, DUMMY. That's what we think of your wine, STUPID."

ME: Haha your wine is so bad... it doesn't taste good... it's probably uh made out of like you know, stuff he got from his patients. He probably got stuff from his patients to make that wine. That wine is probably made out of some stuff from his patients that he got.

Whatever, egghead, do you ever get laid? While you were spending all that time studying boring shit, I was having road sodas with the crew, and now I'm a MULTI-millionaire.

It's a shame because Dr. Steve is fascinating and he never really gets to finish explaining anything.

I like when Dr. Steve is on because seeing his encyclopedic mind at work is a great reminder of just how unfathomably dumb Opie is.
