Getting Opie With Dumb. This week's podcast- Allergies, too many bathrooms, & sneakin a peek at women nursing children.

Later we find out what Benson's take on the whole pot thing is and if he is, indeed, ALL IN.

HOLDONHOLDONHOLDON we'll be right back.

Do you think... Doug Benson likes the marijuana?

Sigh... HE LOVES IT!!!!

It's awesome. Stand up DEFINITELY needs new pot/weed humor. I don't hear it from every single stand up at every single show, everywhere. I also want to hear how you don't know how you're going to get through your set right now because you "got so baked before the show." Tss, FUCKIN HILARIOUS!

no shit... it only took them like 15 seconds to bring it up

Right, right.

Reefer? Tss tss I hardly even stuck my peckah in her.

I heard Opie was considering a baby hit with Benson, who I also heard killed it for them today. I never miss a beat when it comes to Opie With Jim Norton!

"Opie with Jim Norton" sounds like you're talking to a friend to see who is coming. "Yeah, I'll be there, I'm going to bring that pumpkin chested Opie and mother fuckin Jim Norton."

I smoke a lot of fucking weed, but I hate niche weed comics.

I hate people who talk about it all the time. This is not the 70s you are not a fucking rebel if you toke. You are not breaking new ground.

They smoked hash in ancient Assyria fucking 3000 years ago, weed humor was hack back then, it is now.

Please don't come to any mic in Los Angeles because Im not even exaggerating, it's 90% of the material you'll hear. I've fucking had it.

*I called into Fitzdog Radio/Greg Fitzsimmons podcast and complained to him about this 6 hours later.

Doug talks about weed like I did when I was 16. I grew out of being such a pot nerd around 18, I don't get how Doug hasn't yet. It's so embarrassing. Don't get me wrong, I still smoke, but it doesn't define who I am.

Wether we like it or not.... tss

One day: ok.

A week: fuck right off.

Did you use a shovel?

I did enjoy him calling out the show a few times today, especially regarding all the tranny talk.

ha. yeah, i heard the "things that need to be over" joke, but tapped out during the first break

This show has all these comics that I don't really mind overall and wouldn't be opposed to hearing maybe an hour or two a month. However, Opie is clearly flopping on the deck when it comes to providing content so he brings these guys to third mic for like, 10 hours a week for no pay. If you need a third mic, cough up some of that juicy Ant-money and hire one. Don't just bring in the D-listers you've got no chemistry with to prattle on aimlessly.

Does he really think that 10 hours a week of one-note and shallow comics like Florentine and Doug Benson is good raqio or is he just committed to limping to the show finish 4 times a week?

I like Doug. Check out his most recent appearance on Kill Tony, if you want to hear him act like a dick, instead of a stoner.

I don't.

kewl

I like Doug but don't get why he goes on the show. He has his own built in audience it's not like he needs help selling tickets.

Hi Opie!

I hated him for a while too. But I've kinda warmed up to Getting High with Doug, with the right guest it can be a funny show.
