Opie Radio was much better than The Sam and Jim Show today.

It wasn't even close. Opie killed it today and yesterday. I'm not comparing it to classic O&A but it wasn't bad.

The shows:

Is this suddenly bizarro world? The fuck are you talking about, dude?

I think, Jim and Sam truly suck at radio daily.Boring dolts,they have no life experiences. They bitch about mundane services. Both these little shits lived with their parents util they were 30 something. Kevin Pollock was spot on with Lil sammy.Once a week,no more...they stink.

When did Pollock say that? Link?

Opie's show had some momentum to it. J&S were putting me to sleep. It was bad. He also has at least three people in the room. I prefer that. Two dudes talking is weird. It's kind of like listening to an awkward gay date where both dudes are pretending to be "bisexual."

But did Opie do anything to make the show good? Or did he just let the unpaid guests do the legwork while Opie sat back and took the credit ? Opie did nothing to make the show good, the comics did.

How exactly does he keep the energy up? What exactly does that entail?

First, he isn't sleepy. He doesn't begin the show with, "I'm sooooo tired." That is a huge difference. Then he doesn't stay on one topic for too long. When it is done he moves on. It really seems like Sam and Jim are challenging themselves. They are trying to spend as much time on one topic as they possibly can. They milk it. It is so fucking obvious. They probably think they are really smart because they can stay on one topic for so long but it gets old.

Could the simple fact that J&S starts at 8 am and Opies shitty show starts at 3 pm have anything to do with them being "sleepy" 🤔

Probably. But so what? drink some fucking coffee. I'm sure they are getting paid a lot more too.

He wears finger-less gloves.

But, again, did Opie do anything to make the show good?

He keeps the conversation going. He had the balls to pull some dude into the studio and shit on him. Artie sucks on his own show. Jim sucks on his own show. Anthony sucks. Even Bill Burr can be pretty boring. Most of these comedians need someone to guide them I guess.

Who cares if he did or not... If a shows good/funny, gives a fuck what Opie's doing.

I'll take your word for it. I ain't listening to that shit.

I agree with everything you wrote. I tried to listen again today and I couldn't.

Jeff Ross vs. Artie

That's a toss up for me. Artie for basically the whole show vs. Jeff Ross for forty-five minutes preceded by talk about shoe culture, and c-list celebs, and trump for the other two hours. No thanks. Opie has been better every day this week. And that says a lot, since its opie. JAM is just that bad. Opie steps on funny when it goes too long, but at least it gets started. I can't say the same of JAM unless its Jim doing a character or once in a blue moon messing with D-bag. In general, its just not funny. Its Sam exacting his Napoleon syndrome by bitching about how he, the great broadcaster, Not Sam, has been wronged since he wasn't noticed (since he's a shitty broadcaster), and him on Trump's and WWE's dick. Then there is Jimmy, who puts in minimal effort to continue to get his check through this contract and go along with Sam's ill contrived "bits".

Opie still sucks, but at least he's trying to be funny with a diverse conversation, and not just using it as a way to bitch about people who didn't recognize him or some form of fanboy-ism.

Can somebody else listen to this and confirm, I sure as hell wont do it and I refuse to take this man's word for it

There have been a few shows where Opie was better than Sam and Jim.

28 comments and only two thread votes - no one wants to say it even though everyone is thinking it.

To be honest Opie's show is better on most days. But as long as Jim keeps throwing out well-timed sniffs this sub will keep pretending it's the second coming of O&A.

Yeah?

So this is a guests, not hosts, comparison.

No. Opie's hosting was better too. Listen for yourself. Jim is fucking falling asleep.

"Tired Jim" is starting to piss me off as well.

It's bad. I partly listen to wake myself up and I'm listening to this sleepy bastard. It makes me more tired just listening to him. It's torture.

craig gass has not been funny even once this entire week so should fuck off probably. Artie was fuckin hysterical and i was dying when they wrangled in that fur coat wearing faggot that used to be married to that fat mooncricket star jones

I know that Jim and Sam are going to suck so I've barely listened. They're just copying the O&A satellite show. Of course Opie is going to be better. He was a host for years.

But da car crash sound!!!

Can someone make 'Nopie' style videos only completely remove Vic Henley instead?

The show wouldn't make sense. He isn't funny but he does contribute.

Yeah true. I just have a blind hatred.

Opie or S&J outdoing one another on a particular day doesn't matter at all. They are both shit and I'm not choosing which one smells less. No fucking thanks on both shows.
