How did you come across Opie and Anthony?

Was it through your subscription with Sirius/Xm? Their old WNEW days?

Youtube clips with comics?

And such.

I was browsing the main niggermania.com forum, when I saw some posts made by Mr Cumia complaining about his job and a big titted fella he worked with. Those were some heady days back then.

the man who kept me in his sex dungeon would listen to it while he sodomized me

once I escaped I started listening to clips online

Louis C.K. vs. Donald Rumsfeld. Funnily enough, based on that one episode I thought Anthony was an annoying weasel and Opie was the smart one.

Then I ran through all of Patrice's appearances and that opinion turned around VERY quickly.

When I first started listening I had their voices switched around in my head. I don't know why I thought Opie looked like a wop and Anthony was a douchey surfer bro.

Haha me tooo!

My trucker friend told me about it. He found it from graffiti in a truck stop bathroom

of course he did

I wont tell you who, but one of the employees of the show had one of their videos broadcasted on /r/niggers, i've been hooked ever since

hooked on niggers?

i got sick of howard finally

I was a mail carrier. Listened to Howard from '09-'11 to pass the time, Howard went on vacation and I tuned in only to be exposed to 9-14-11. I was blown away. Even greg was on point that day.

The first thing i heard was I LITERALLY stopped breathing for two seconds.

Ugh. Couldn't back arrow fast enough.

Around the same time i got an iphone or ipod touch and didnt know what podcasts were so i searched Joe Rogan because i liked mma and comedy, liked Jimmy on his podcast so went through there and saw Patrice do a set on tv and loved it so i looked for more of his stuff and got onto O&A.

This was the set https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY3wsYzl3DA

For Chipmas one year I tsssd for a new comedy radio show and Chippah Claus left me a hilarious episode featuring Louis Ck and Patrice O'Neal. Been hooked ever since.

In Jail, me and Uncle Paul were doing a stretch because of a few tattle tales!

Yeaaah shuuuuuuuure, everything was going swell till the kids started fibbin and the parents started yelling saying that they were making accusations!

They had me at Sperm Bowl '96. I was like 14.

Liked them when they were syndicated in afternoons in the 90s and was sort of aware of them but never checked em out until early 2013. Started finding clips of their show on YouTube when they would bash howard and I just got hooked. First full show I listened to was tequila and donuts day. Still haven't missed a show.

Hey, mind your business, cocksucka. You're asking too many questions.

Louis CK on the show.

Randomly started listening to some Lazlow podcasts back in 2009-2010 because I liked him on GTA. On one of the shows he talked about Secret Show to the future being on afterwards. BTTF is one of my favorite movies so listened to it and liked it. Started catching O&A show clips on youtube and eventually moved on to whole shows.

Last year in the spring I YouTubed Louie ck stand up. After I finished those there was a suggested video of him on o&a. Listened. Kind of liked it. Read some of the comments and someone kept saying jocktober. Searched for that and I was fucking hooked.

Had XM before they got there, their show became "free" I started listening.

I was a die hard WAAF listener when I was in high school. They were my favorite show on the channel. I followed them ever since.

Searched Jim Jefferies clips. Listened to some of them, got hooked, listened to all of them. Then Louie, Then Patrice, Then found a website i could download daily at work. Been doing that every day for about 3/4 years now and listen to old clips constantly, like a lonely fucking nobody.

When they were synidicated in philly i think summer of 2001. When they went to XM my brother got XM. I used to listen to them (and play command & conquer) through his account streaming on xm's site.

Listening to episodes of Gervais's old radio show with Steve Merchant and Karl Pilkington on YouTube, saw a suggested video of Gervais on some US radio show, gave it a click just for something to listen to.

It was the show with Gervais, Louie, Bennington and Jay Mohr on. I was hooked instantly, and O&A gradually replaced The Ricky Gervais Show as something to listen to on the commute or at the gym.

Started off with old clips on YouTube with Gervais on, then found the Louie playlist and made my way through that and then the Patrice playlist. Finally found a way to download full shows just after they aired. Probably didn't miss a live show from around November 2011 up until earlier this year when there was just no enjoyment left in listening.

I'm from the UK and at the time I wasn't really into the stand-up comedy scene or radio, let alone from the US, so I would never have heard of either Opie or Anthony or probably most of the friends of the show (except for Louie and probably Burr) if it weren't for that one YouTube click 4 years ago. Jim would have just been another comedian I skipped past on Netflix's comedy section. Bobby would have just been another extra in a Gervais movie, or that fat guy from Louie. Patrice would have just been that guy from the warehouse in The Office. The name Rich Vos would mean absolutely nothing to me and I wouldn't hear a voice in my head every time I drove past a Chippy.

Fawk ya Chipperson!

Louis CK clips on YouTube, listen to all his shows, then fell in love with Jimmy. Then more I listened them I realized Anthony was a funny fuck, and been a fan ever since.

Got XM as a gift for my vehicle in 2005, found O&A while making my daily commute to/from town.

I worked part time during school and full time in the summer during 10th grade for a landscaping company. My boss would have WNEW on in the truck and it was when Opie and Anthony still were forced to play music. So late 98 during Fall cleanup was the first time I heard them. Was never into Stern even though I tried.

My coworkers played it in the office every morning

I was reading some shit about Sex for Sam back in like 2002 or so. Found old audio in mp3 format on a website. Craziest shit I ever heard. I never liked Howard's type of radio but this shit was so great. Then I discovered Ron and Fez.

Youtube clip of them interviewing george carlin. I remember i fucking hated opie cause he kept interrupting him

I used to listen to Kids Chris on wysp and they started simulcasting o&a (or maybe it was a best of, I don't know). First bit I heard was jimmy ranting about birds

Ricky Gervais interview a few years back.

I discovered them on DirecTV when it used to have their XM channel. Anthony was doing a Howard impression and I thought it was wonderful.

I came across the boys when they were on 94.1 WYSP here in Philly. I remember the first bit I heard lil Jimmy do was "Crinkle Crinkle". I was hooked!

Tuned in one afternoon in 2000 and heard Brian Regan do his whole bit about being in a hospital. I kept listening for the comedic bits and jerked off to the lesbo clips on foundry music.

WOW stickers, WOW stickers everywhere

I think in 2009 stumbled across the show on XM when Dam was buying Anthony an iPhone. "We're here, we're queer, we want an iPhone." Cracked me up. Shortly after Tippy Tom died and I listened to a week of Tippy Tom replays and learned what a genius Anthony was, and Jimmy. Then learned of Patrice. Huge fan for next six years.

I think it was when Stern had the channel 9 show and they aired an Opie and Anthony commercial. It was basically a black screen with the Opie and Anthony logo and references to WNEW. That next week I tuned in and found it very funny. I think it was the show where Psycho Mark was in a hospital with a bucket of chicken looking for a 600 pound dude that was in the news.

Youtube clip with Louis CK around 2009.

From there, "women and chocolate" and "women and toilets."

From there, everything else.
