Jimmy is thinking of going solo from Opie and Anthony in October

9  2016-01-13 by Dennyislife

Lil' Jim is leaving home. As are the stangles. And Opie will have a empty nest.

after viewing his last few stand-up specials, I would recommend to him not quiting his day job.

After listening to Jim on OnA, his bug-eyed standup specials blow.

doomed if he stays , doomed if he leaves, he did it to himself.

Go fuck yourself retard

I don't have to do anything you say sir.

Jimmy should just join up with Vos, Bobby Kelly and a select few others and start up a new podcast, call it "The Comedians Round Table". Subtitle "The real reason O & A was so successful"

13  ellasmitherson 2016-01-13

That is exactly the best advice. I do not understand why Norton hasn't realized this yet.

14  phlammo 2016-01-13

How would they get the podcasting equipment into the city?

13  justchippinyaaaa 2016-01-13

He's afraid to take a chance. Look at how he reacts when people say he should do a show in London and how he would kill.

It really is weird. Norton watched Louis CK take risk after risk and it pay off and instead he triples down on the sure thing.

the ona thing aint that bad, made him a millionare

2  zippitii 2016-01-13

its not bad. Its just that he stagnated and now hes past his peak. Like CK as a comedian is finished, but he propelled himself onto other projects by being funny as fuck in the 08-12 window.

1  BalmoraVivec 2016-01-13

As much as I love Jimmy, he is not CK. CK was able to take chances and actually pull through. But that is a very special case.

1  zippitii 2016-01-13

Thats true, but he has hints of that curiosity about the world -- or at least he used to have them -- that I think made CK's comedy so strong. You can hear it in his voice when he interviewed Kaku the first time or two or when Louis was dropping knowledge bombs. But thats the problem, it was easy just to talk about trannies and reup with OA and stagnate. So he did.

2  dickkream_kumia 2016-01-13

the man never does anything for free, he only goes on podcast when he has shit to promote

1  kevin121312 2016-01-13

that is a good idea

2  DutchHarry 2016-01-13

I would pay for that

23  DoubleGuns 2016-01-13

Playing the hits and shooting the shiznit...

It's Double D's and Brother Wease in the Morning!

...the raunchiest motherhuckers in radio!

3  goldstandard32 2016-01-13

Oh yeah motherhuckers, that's a Wease line.

18  Nulltor 2016-01-13

Bullshit, why do you think they call him 'the pay check kid'?

Hacky and Blacky would also work

3  jonesy6969 2016-01-13

14  PeteFo 2016-01-13

That's right, grandson!

I FUCKED UP!!!

3  dejavu4thedead 2016-01-13

Don't curse in front of grandpa

13  K1bbler 2016-01-13

Did you read his diary?

4  herpacin 2016-01-13

To be fair he was bored with pillow biting.

11  panjshirlion 2016-01-13

Of all possible the futures, the one in which Jimmy signs on with Sam is both the brightest and least likely.

8  TheFans4Life 2016-01-13

oh he is not ya big liar

5  im_not 2016-01-13

It'll 100% be Opie and Sherrod if Jimmy leaves. He's already 3rd mic as it is, plus Opie probably thinks that Sherrod is a pretty decent Patrice replacement and can really reel in that coveted urban demo.

2  NoirMagieGateau 2016-01-13

I always got the feeling Opie didn't even like Patrice. He talked too much and wouldn't let the Opester tell his made up stories.

9  arcadiajohnson 2016-01-13

Lol that's such horseshit. I've been listening to the Patrice archives and he had some kind of respect for Opie. He actually cracked up at things Opie would say. So even if Patrice was faking it all, Opie would have liked him for the positive attention.

2  NoirMagieGateau 2016-01-13

Are you saying Patrice is a phony? We turning against him too? Lead the way.

4  Anarox 2016-01-13

Dream scenario (never going to happen): He turns the whole show over to Colin and then makes it radio tough crowd. Fuck I would sub for that.

4  Dawgsie 2016-01-13

Opie will have an empty nest, or be unemployed?

The latter. However I firmly believe he will attempt to say he is bowing out gracefully on his own terms as he's done with the business. "They offered me a new deal.... on par with what Howie is getting, but barrrp I said no thanks. I was thinking they could split up the stern show. Robin with me on Mondays and Wed...."

Shut up you unemployable daft fuck. Go count the moon or something that won't confuse you as much.

4  RatherPleasent 2016-01-13

I think O&A worked so well because none of them are good by themselves, they're all codependents.

3  scottgreenstein 2016-01-13

If his advice show is any indicator it should be a rousing success, just like every project he does.

3  kevin121312 2016-01-13

did he say this on his show? link?

3  jonesy6969 2016-01-13

i heard there's a lot of money in selling mugs, and t shirts online

2  chicken-named-mike 2016-01-13

Ya kiddin'!?

2  grocery_man 2016-01-13

No chance he will if sirius offer him and Opie another deal.

2  bellboy1973 2016-01-13

Jimmy doing a show alone will be better. I'm gonna guess he's gonna have his own staff and hopefully he can bounce jokes off them, unlike some very large tited man. It's strange but the stangles were more supportive of jimmy's jokes and character than Opie ever has... That's sad.

1  I_Hate_Knickers_2 2016-01-13

As long as there are Greggshells I'll be listening.

If the money is greater than the bad experienced from doing it, in his industry especially, take it. Those offers won't be there soon enough for Jim.

Common sense and reason would say, take the fucking money and run, unless there is some serious, underlying issues at play.

1  ObsessiveMuso 2016-01-13

Good.

1  JimmysLostFat 2016-01-13

Where else was he gonna go?

1  herpacin 2016-01-13

I can't wait for all of the venom to come pouring out of everyone when the show ends

1  Macbettz 2016-01-13

More like dad gambled away the house and tits cant afford any talent so jimmy will have to move in with his 3 siblings if he stays. Jimmy is stubbornly clinging on.
