BREAKING: Sam and Ian Halperin discuss Jimmy leaving O&J

83  2016-08-17 by SociallyAwkwardRyan

Sam: Jim has made it pretty clear that he won't be... doing the show in October.

Ian Halperin: WHAT?

Sam: But I don't think that means anyone's leaving, necessarily.

Ian: What does that mean, then?

Sam: There's a lot of THINGS that could happen between now and then. I'm not on the inside track.

Ian: Well, when you say he won't be doing the show in October...

Sam: He keeps making reference to the fact that he doesn't want to do the show with Opie, it's no secret.

Ian: Him and Opie not getting along?

Sam: They had a fight a lil while back, they're on the same page, no hostility. They just want to do shows in different ways, and to do that, it may have to be done seperately. So, idk what's gonna happen in October. I want them both to stay, they're both very valuable etc etc.

Also:

Ian: Opie and Anthony in a ring. Who would win?

Sam: I don't know, but there would be blood.

I can already predict what will happen. We'll all flock to Jimmy's show, Jocktober Opie's show, then eventually turn on Jimmy, complaining that he interviews no one but boring porn stars and UFC guys.

Sounds about right.

yep

Can't wait!

Plus Florentine is a regular guest who only talks about metal.

Why wouldn't I? What am I, 8?

He goes into a wild psychosis against doorknobs, repeatedly asking 'who even used those anymore?' as he approaches them.

And not even good metal

I literally just gazed inside a black hole and saw information and stuff.

I'll pop-lock to that.

I've already prepared a handful of blasphemous material for both on how shit their new shows are.

Where do I sign up?

Its become self-aware!

Finally Ian Halperin gets a real scoop

Yet he still managed to get his retarded "who would win in a fight" question in.

Opie would win by having Shaq fuck Ant in the ass.

That would be a win for Ant though. I guess a Draw, since Opie would get to watch.

Shaq balloon. Where we at with the Shaq balloon? I'ts obviously a Shaq balloon. I'm calling it a Shaq balloon. Shaq Balloon. Did everyone hear how funny I was? Shaq balloon.

You mean the Shaq Balloon?

Edit:. Goddamn you /u/homerunchippa! I'm a day late, my bad.

Fawkin tree stepz ahead cocksuckah

google it!

IAN thinks he is FUNNY and WITTY!!

He's funnier and wittier then the Opster though, I'll give him that.

Ian can apparently rent out Madison Square Garden whenever he wants

This did happen. I'm listening now. Unless Sam is just a huge shit stirrer this sub is right on track.

It's common knowledge that he checks up here once in a while. He's also the king of O&A drama and shit stirring.

I've got a feeling almost everyone from the show visits this wasteland regularly. I guarentee Travis, Erock, and Sam reference this sub daily and laugh at all the Tits jokes.

Except Sam and Erock have been noticably annoyed and angered when people bring up this sub on the air.

Erock is still pissy about someone here doing that down syndrome gag.

A thousand people upvoted a completely unedited picture of him that claimed he had down syndrome.

Is he meant to not be upset?

He's fat too.

He could take it in his stride like a normal person and not shit the bed.

Lol he has an extra chromosome.

i think sam feigns his annoyance somewhat, but erock still seems to love the opster

I called in once and he cut the conversation short when I brought up something negative about Opie.

playing the game, brother

Sam?

We all know his real username. I can't believe no one has summoned him.

[deleted]

Wasteland...such a hood description. It really is a nuclear torn wasteland. Except we don't have half life, but NO life hhhrggh.

He said Jim doesn't like doing a show you Opie and won't be after October. That's a little beyond some tongue and cheek wink to this group.

He reads reddit while eating food shaped like dinosaurs

He's as pitiful as all of us, he's just better at radio.

I've done a 360 on sam. Used to think he was an absolute cunt. Now I think he's an absolute cunt but in a slightly ironic sort of way.

the only positive trait he's ever had is shit stirring.

Even a blind squirrel can find a nut every now and then.

My only hope is that this somehow causes alot of drama between Jim and Opie

It'll do the opposite..they will probably be more chill. I'm gutted.

🍳🍳:

" Errr...alright. Ok. I just wanna take a moment right now to...err, address err..., say a big thank you to Jim Norton for all of his fine fine work on the show over the years and that I wish you nothing but the best going forward on the network. You're a very talented comedian and I'm sure you'll have great success at whatever it is you do. "

🐍:

" Thanks buddy "

🍳🍳:

" And before anyone says I had you fired or moved or whatever it was Jimmy's and the network's decision, not mine, period. "

🐍:

" I don't think anyone's saying... "

🍳🍳:

" EXACTLY! But I get all the haters on Twitter and Reddit saying I had you moved because I don't like Uncle Paul whatever and that is much not true! "

🐍:

" Yeah, I know but you can't listen to any of that... "

🍳🍳:

" ...I don't listen to any of it! I wouldn't give any of those assholes the fawkin time a day! "

🐍:

" Then how do you know they said that? "

🍳🍳:

" huh? "

🐍:

" How do you know they said that if you don't read it? "

🍳🍳:

" ... "

[ What will Opie's response be? Tune in for part 2 this time next week folks ]

Why is Opie eggs in a frying pan? Do those represent his massive egg shaped areolas?

I think it's a reference to "gregshells."

Brilliant.

Damn, sounds like Roberts slipped up and gave up inside info. I honestly thought that the people here were reading far too much into the situation. I knew their fights were real but I always thought comments Jim made were rather vague and that the people here were just reading into it. But if this is true Sam is basically reaffirming what a great deal of people here had already assumed. Damn

I agree except If he said this I doubt it was a slip-up. Sam is a huge wrestling and radio geek, he's probably working the listeners to generate interest and hype because splitting the shows is either already planned or in consideration. He probably even got Opie's permission to say this shit.

You are correct. Crossing the Opester would be brudal

Too big a deal? He flat out said Jim is not doing a show together Opie anymore!

Right? This sub is supposed to be the inside track to all that is knowledge.. Yet missing that? 😳

What what the fuck are you working with?

Enough with all the lawyer speak.

Plus, O&J stinks and has probably lost a lot of listeners.

This sub is full of dumb fags on both ends. Everyone who said "he's gonna re-sign if you think he won't be on Opie Radio you're an idiot" can suck on my asshole. Jimmy's been trying to strike out on his own way more aggressively over the past couple years, anyone who hasn't noticed it likes to eat shit and cum blood.

I disagree with you, but you're making me hungry.

People here?

"you people"?

Me: I did right by Jim. Sniff

Me: I absolutely fawkin' did... period. That is a fact... sniff. It's clear he moved on from the show and wanted to go a different durrrection. It was obvious to everyone... period.

I never FAWKIN did anything but support tha guy. sniff

Please let this be real and not some troll. There's two separate threads about this.

We were speculating Jim leaving in 2014. Considering the Worm's piss poor ability to keep promises, I wouldn't hold my breath.

Swear to god dog. Ask NotLogan HighestPrimate to upload tonight's Sam Roberts Show or sumpthin

Does he come here?

[deleted]

I'm not usually an uploader but I'll look for the link when I get home today. If I can't find it I'll upload it then.

[removed]

Lol what do you think bruh. We're all here

Jim leaves in October, It'll be the beginning of opies demise. I give till next contract after the contract in October and siriusxm bails on Opie.

its real ... tell everyone.. quick!

IT'S HAPPENING

Opie will become the management lap dog...keep that cushy contract and do whatever they want.

They won't pay him the same money to be a middle-management bitch-boy.

no, but he'll make more doing it than he would anything else he is capable of doing.

Ian: Opie and Anthony in a ring. Who would win?

Probably Opie because he has a good seven inches on Anthony. If there were weapons involved like bats or knives I'm not sure though.

I think the Opster would win, especially if he fights dirty and gets the notorious Philly crew involved. Who knows he may even still have ties to the Mob from his days as a young caddy.

Wait is Philly Crew more powerful than SAMCRO? I need to brush up

Ant has also said he's not a fighter, and refused to ever fist fight. He will shoot someone though... lol

The one time Anthony punched a guy he broke his own hand.

i bet he has a lot of dreams where he throws a punch and it just sticks midair and he can't focus his vision on anything.

Dani broke Ant's hand?

[deleted]

Boomer future NFL HOFer Opie.. Former radio star known for his beautiful rack.

Fair comparison

He's got angry manlet strength. It'd be a good fight.

But what if he still hasn't found his gun??

Wonder if this will get addressed on J&S tomorrow.

"You mean Nor-Ton is going to leave?" - Ian

What WOULD either DO alone?! Why would SIRIUS want EITHER separately?

JIMMY has a POOR track record for his SOLO projects. OPIE is dumb and NOT FUNNY. Their SEPARATE audiences would be even smaller than the small COMBINED audience now.

Morning Jam you queer

That will be GREAT!!! A GUEST will cancel for a legitimate REASON and JIMMY will spend WEEKS complaining about it.

Which show would Scorch be a better fit for?

"HOORAY FOR PAULIE-WOOD"!

I mean Jim is a comedian, he will continue to make an ok living as a comedian and do the UFC podcast a few days a week. Really not the worst situation to be in.

SIRIUS show FILLED his SEATS!!! NO ONE outside of "O&A" audience KNOWS who JIM NORTON is.

That time of the month for Jigglytits Opster ... I hear ya Sammy.

Sam may not be familiar with the concept of sameness of pages

Can't handle too much Sam sick of him after a week and need a break.

How is Opie going to carry a show solo? He's going to need to stretch big time on the news articles.

Opie & Vic Henley with Sherrod & LAARRAAAAYYY from Baltimore

Fucking Nooooo!!!

SAM AND JIM!! SAM AND JIM!! SAM AND JIM!! SAM AND JIM!! SAM AND JIM!! SAM AND JIM!! SAM AND JIM!! SAM AND JIM!!

It would have a lot of funny moments at first then devolve, I foresee disappointed listeners that still think remnants of the old O&A magic will reappear. That ship has sailed.

You're not wrong, but we stilll want a little taste.

You've got to figure Opie will do everything he can to prevent a Jimmy & Sam Morning Slam 'n Glances Gabfest from actually happening, even though that's the best and most natural thing that could come out of this.

Would Tits sit idly by and allow a vastly superior show to happen under his boobs, and maybe on his own channel?

Is he that oblivious to how much hatred there is out there for him, and how his albeit tenuous association with Jimmy is the last thread of a buffer between him and another tidal wave of shit/backlash of hatred?

And what of other comedians? Will it be a low-level, retarded "Leno or Letterman; can't do both" situation?

And what of the underlings? I don't know much about them, but I've got to figure all of them, to a man, would rather work for Jimmy and Sam.

The only thing that worries me is Sam with power. We may well live to regret this, and we may all wind up working for that little shit.

We're talking civil war here, gang.

If we can risk getting a show that at all resembles the one that brought us here in the first place, it's worth whatever risk we have to take.
Also, died laughing at "under his boobs".

If Jim wastes this opportunity and does a serious interview heavy show I'll be seriously disappointed

I do enjoy him on Jim Norton Show tbh. The callers are the problem. But he certainly needs some sort of directon, whether it's callers or Sammy

WHERE IS THIS FROM?

Tonight's Sam Roberts show.

Well Ant won against his last opponent with tits, my money's on the Tunisian Terror.

My prediction is Sam and Jim in the morning and Opie and Anthony in the afternoon. Anthony will keep his podcast network but will not do a daily show.

Any chance of Cumia ever walking into Sirius again died the exact moment those handcuffs were tightened around his wrists last December.

I think youre delusional lol. Opie and Anthony wouldnt get back without Jim on board, that makes no sense. More likely is Opie with Vic Henley, or Sherrod, all memes aside.

YEah just joshin'. But if O&A got back together Jim won't be there because we will never get the three back together in any form. DAvid Lee Roth comes back and Michael Anthony gets the boot. YEah. See what I'm sayin' CoCk SUckerS.

I hope Opie doesn't try to partner up with Ronnie B.

If they did a Ron and Ope type thing where Opie plays the overly sensitive baby I'd be down

Opie will talk about how blueberries are not a standalone fruit because he can add them to any smoothie.

I gave them the best 20 years of my life and they replaced me with the nasally spade intern!? Where the fuck is ny gun?! Fuck!

:( I wonder if Kenny will let Ant call in to Morning Jam

A little out of the loop. What did Jim and Opie fight over ?

DL Hughley agreed to record something (presumably for Chip cartoon?) for one of Jimmy's projects. Jimmy got studio space and DL didn't show. Jimmy didn't want DL back on the show but Opie scheduled him anyway without telling Jim. Opie covered his ass by sending Jimmy a stupid email saying DL would be in, even though Opie and Roland knew he didn't want DL in. Jim found out and was pissed during the whole bit. He ended up confronting DL for standing him up. The next day Jim gave Opie the business, to which Opie said "You could have just left. I would've TOALLY understand, bro." Jim rationally argued that, even tho its Opie's show clearly, that Opie can't act like they're partners if Opie behaves like this. Just Google Opie vs Jim, it's from June/Julyish

Wow. Dick move by opie if true. Thanks for the response bud.

Audio or never happened.

Completely over LoS, YKWD, and misery loves company. Hopefully this is true. At least i still have Cum town, hate waiting a week for it though since all the other podcasts just annoy me now.

Anyone have audio?

GAY

Opie, comment?

Looks legit bro.

If jim leaves, will all his comedian friends follow or will they be sucking opies dick to be second mic?

What comic friends? Bobby? Nobody else does the show

ANY non A-list comedian would kill for that Norton gig. Making 300K per year to work 12 hours a week? Less travel, etc. Someone like Dane Cook or Sebastian Maniscalco...no. But, Bob Kelly or Rich Vos? You bet your life on it!

I wouldn't consider most of the "regulars" these days to be Jim's friends. Big talents like Sherrod & Vic will be right there by Opie's side regardless of whether Norton remains.

Ian sounds genuinely concerned for his buddy Nor-Ton

I've been saying it since day one. Sam fucking rules.
