Here's something interesting, from 1996:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!search/opie$20waaf/alt.fan.howard-stern/NzRvKe2wzIY/OGVfZNwshVEJ

I was listening to the Opie and Anthony show tonight on WAAF 107.3 IN Boston. The are a couple of young guys, doing cutting edge bits and are pretty funny. They owe a lot to Stern. A listener called in and asked why they said Howard was stealing their bits; that Howard was the originator. They proceeded to give a list of names they said Howard has gotten all his stuff from, and including a guy who supposedly did lesbian dial a date before Howard. The caller laughed when Opie suggested that Howard listens to their show for ideas. Then what happened next really makes me curious. Opie played an answering machine message that was obviously out of context but nonetheless odd. It was GaryBooey calling and there was no mistaking it. "Opie, this is Gary from the Howard Stern show, we heard you were really good and were wondering if you could send us a tape...."

I thought Opie never listened to Howard?

This book had better skew to the "Opie is a stupid piece of shit and should die" side of things. Even if it's a good story about the two of them, try to color it by throwing in something about his awful shirt or him wearing a hemp bracelet.

Can't let Ant's awful face, hair and fashion choices go unmentioned though.

Haha Opie is a dope. It proves they don't listen to them if they are asking for a tape. What a dope

Umm, no. A demo tape is what they wanted. Doesn't mean they do or do not listen.

This is actually really cool, thanks for posting. I don't know how to do sincerity.

I like having my balls roughly fondled, licked, and sucked on when I get blown.

I've been poring over old old press releases

Tss why don't ya exfoliate over em' uh sumptin

F-U ABU

We hate you

I was born in Queens, New York, and went to High School in Southern California.

I joined Opie at WBAB in Long Island after I sent him a song parody about O.J. Simpson. I do all the crazy voices on the show.

In my spare time I sing in my band "Rotgut" and watch television.

Baywatch

Now we know where Tits got their inspiration.

My favorite quote comes from my mother: "Don't let the bastards get you down!"

His psychotic, mentally ill mother? Mentality and cause of irritable depression: LOCATED!

Or... ya know a famous song or WWII motto...

Can someone confirm if that's the bit?

She was speaking about his peers.

Opie looks a bit like Squeaky Fromme in that pic.

I wish he looked like Leno Labianca.

 >ywn have some greasy racist 60s runaway gobble on your unwashed cock while plotting murders and preparing to ride out the race war

Why even live?

Jdimsa

How come his favorite band of all time, Nirvana, isn't in there? Maybe the rock jock never heard them until after 96.

Black Crows? Child of the 90s.

Edit: Crowes. Apparently I cannot read.

I was actually a child of the 90s and we listened to Black Crowes.

Quiet man, the Crowes are on!

Opie, forever the fruit booter.

you forgot skiing a second time

interests include reading? if that's true i guess he means the same book over and over.

Quote or Petpeeve: "The true enemy of creativity is good taste." -- Pablo Picasso

that's oddly appropriate.

This book is going to be scribbled in shit on the wall of some madhouse.

So?

Probably the best place to get an interview with Anthony and Joe's mom.

Here's some stuff from "Opie & Anthony's Wacky Webpage" from 1996:

Busty Heart: Helping Opie & Anthony Get Listeners. O&A put fake tits on a male intern and make him stand on a billboard with a sign that says "Honk For Hooters."

Opie & Anthony encourage fans to "Mess with Celebrities!"

I remember having a Geocities or Angelfire page with animations like that and thinking that it was the coolest shit in the world.

They look like SAMCRO Tits' current 2U website.

What about AOL Hometown!?

[deleted]

if reddit had punters i would make your computer freeze right now. that'd really bring both of us back.

The "MTV Hate Page" is Tumblr-level cringe.

They talked about that honk for hooters thing on a jocktober of themselves. Think it was the child of the 80's thing. Sam brought that photo up thinking it was them. Opie and Anthony couldn't remember it.

Totally demented but cannot be prevented!

What book? Who is writing a book?

Bobo is writing a book. It's entitled "Fugitive: My Life As A Coast-To-Coast Grand Larcenist"

*Fuchatiff

the 23 year late "Dassabesso" reply almost made me spit my drink on my screen

The post sounds like Opie wrote it.

Unless it's a tweet or a YouTube title, Opie hasn't written anything in years.

I know we're enemies but respect for you if you're really gonna do this and it looks like you are.

😗

Okay, so is the OP actually an author?

Can't let Ant's awful face, hair and fashion choices go unmentioned though.
