Sam and Jim actually do have "the chemistry"

I hate to admit it, but Sam is really good at making Jim funnier and pushing his buttons. He's way better than Opie.

That took balls to admit this here

Sam was always great as an antagonizer.

I really don't mind Sam. He's a scary-lookin' product of race mixing and HRT abuse, but he makes for quality radio.

JAM with Jim and Sam shows are fun to listen to. They're so much more relaxed without Opie being there

He's always good at subtle jabs and lead ins that go over Opie's head. You can tell he steps down a level so that Tits trusts him enough as a "set up man".

I always dug Sam & Jim together. He knows how to play to Jimmy's strengths, maybe because Sam has ears that work. And common sense. Unlike the Opester.

While's 'The Sam Roberts Show' is shameful subhuman garbage similar to Sam's genetic makeup - I really enjoy Sam and Jim together. Sam does a good job 'steering the ship' into actually funny scenarios and not into a cyclone of insecurity and 80's hack premises.

Yeah he's great in an ensemble, but def does not have the chops (and certainly not the voice) to host anything by himself, he's fucking terrible. I still always liked Sam in general though.

Sam knows how to bring out Jim's funny. He does the same with Ant. And Bob Kelly.

Perhaps, Sam is good at radio.

but who will steer the ship?

Someone who still does research and cares about the end product.

And is tittless

Sam is good as a second-banana. I don't think he can be good on his own in big doses, but as an "Opie" where he runs the show and knows to keep funny people around him, he's good.

And everyone could use some more Scorch, and Sam has to do that.

he did the same with ESDave on the old Saturday Night Virus too

I think Op relieved him of his show duties because he knew deep down that Sam was more a friend to Ant than he was to him. sniff

Sam has talent.

Just not for radio.

Jim always had awesome chemistry with Sam, and it's sorely missed since Opie banished him far, far away from primetime (and replaced him with the Stengles.)

As much as Sam is a reprehensible human being with very few redeeming qualities as a human, and even less as a broadcaster, he knew his place in studio near a live mic.

He always gave Jim something to work off of, and daresay, he even made an Opie-centric bit look humorous with the "Scorch/Li'l Scorch" thing". (Spoiler alert: Sam was the funny one in that exchange)

I'd absolutely tune into "The Morning Jam With Jim & Sam" a lot more frequently than I do "OpieRadio w/Vic/Sherrod/DeStefano & a bored Norton".

Hoping for S.A.J. In October that cromag is the missing link that opie and Jim are missing. So I'm hoping that Sam ant and Jim will become what we all were hoping TACS would be.

I'd be genuinely excited for this.

Wouldn't the Dubbya Dubbya E part ways with Sam if he joined a racist paedo though?!

Would love this and it would probably save TACS but it's a looonng shot. Jimmy's comfortable in every way but his soul and Sam would be leaving a very large platform at an early part of his career.

I've always liked Sam. He and Jim can do a decent show as long as they a quality third mic.

Sam and Jim plus Vos/Bob Kelly/CQ/Jim Jeffries would probably be some funny shit.

Minus Bob Kelly... His new shtick of calling everyone "buddy" is fucking annoying.

I think "god I hate Chip" every single time Chip speaks is far worse..

I say it all the time, but Sam Jim and Jamey Hatebreed was one of my favorite things ever. I wish they had a show every day, it's such a weird combination of people but it works.

This title sounds sexy and alluring.

edited: because I fucked up.

edit 2: Opie just needs to give these 2 queers a show and then step aside.

Absolutely... if Jim re signs this time, between the sjw shit, and the cartoon fiasco and his act getting stale, he'll lose his remaining fans. If he teams up with Sam he might be able to salvage what little career he has left.

The old saying goes "If you love Jimmy... set him free. If he comes back, it's for the money."

No fake uproarious laughter the entire time, no banal music talk, Jim had someone to bounce things off of...

If Sam and Jim become a thing I'm linking back to this thread this time next year when we all hate them passionately.

This sub is a tempestuous mistress.

Jimmy was so giddy today. All the attempts to bring his characters into another format or him cohosting some shit MMA show were bad moves. He just needs to do radio with Sam.

We got that chemistree brotha, that's why I said it.

Jim Norton's long time companion "wink wink" Club Soda Kenny is very jealous of the chemistry. Sam"Wanda Sykes"Robertson has been seen sucking Norton's cock in the men's room.Gay or Faggot you decide.

His laugh alone is enough to prevent me from consistent listening

That's my problem with him, and the fact that he laughs at literally every joke and laughs through telling his own jokes. Pretty brutal but still beats the hell out of Opie's fake laugh.

Jimmy reverts to the adorable sweet little boy he is when it's him and Sam. Don't have to be so serious when Opie isn't around

Its Kemishtree. Nice try with that hate tho

I love interactions between Sam and Chip, its always volatile and funny.

You mean The Morning Jam with Jim & Sam

No. Sam is Opie jr.

Sam is a human shaped piece of shit

What is it with this sub's hard-on for this quadroon simian? He's marginally good at being a smart-ass, which is only good in short supply. He plays funny with Chip, what else do you got? A suck-ass who has no future in radio. There's no "chemistry" you dope. They play verbal grab-ass and the only reason you think they're good together is they're both not Opie.

Here's what's with the hard-on. The show has been shit for 2 years. Its like if we were in a depression and didn't get any type of meat for 2 years, and today they gave us a hamburger. We'd act like it was Filet Mignon. I listened for the first time in months and actually laughed. I still don't like Sam but he is better than Opie and Vic or Sherrod. If they can't bring back Ant, I'd love to see Opie get canned and put Sam and Jim together. A shitty hamburger is better than none.

And in two years I'd be on here hating Sam and Jim, before dropping the toaster in the tub.

That was the natural progression for you regardless.

I just like him because he's positive and funny. Good vibes.

I don't like his voice.

Voice? SAMs laugh is more annoying than Roland's speech impediment

He is just far less embarrassing than Opie on the radio. First time I've listened in a long time for the Seth Rogan interview. I could envision the moments in the interview where Opie would say something horrifically unfunny or uncomfortable. You're correct that Sam is tolerable at best, but I would give a Jim & Sam show a shot.

Sam doesn't need to be funny, he just needs to put other people in the position to be, and is very good at it. He sets them up with a softball right over the plate. Opie just throws it into the stands every time.

This is a perfect answer. Sam sucks you dolts.

GET UMM!
