Remember how much of a scumbag Sam Roberts was, and how he motherfuck'd people on the show? But he got to skate on all of that because Opie needed the friendship in general?
He skated on it because it was hilarious. I will never understand people who hold the feelings and well-being of staff members over entertainment value. You're listeners. You don't know these people.

I just didn't find it very entertaining. It was forced and it was a Howard Stern rip off, except Howard did it a thousand times better.

Agreed. The audience of these shows get the ultimate work played on them. It's just entertainment after all.

he skated because opie needed friends?? that doesn't even make sense.

Yes it does. The O.P is implying that Opie needed Sam as a friend so bad that he allowed Sam to be a scumbag without consequence.
First of all, Opie is just as big a scumbag as that retard Sam. Second, I don't think Opie has ever had any power. Maybe at XM... but after that...

SAMs bullshit used up hundreds of hours of radio. It's why he allowed it, it was easy material.

and anthony allowed it, because he needed sam as a friend too, right? it's a nonsensical theory.
opie & anthony both allowed it, because it was funny to have sam instigate shit with the staff. simple as that.
