Opie's show at this point is so terrible that I honestly think I'm starting to feel bad for him.

Don't get me wrong here, I still hope that he walks in on a pro skater balls deep in his wife while his children look upon the act confused, fascinated and uncomfortable, but the show has hit such a low point that it's tough to even make fun of. Upon first hearing his conversation with that mexican guy I couldn't handle it and hit stop when he said "Jazz it up" like 8 seconds in. But boredom and curiosity took me back and I listened to the full fucking 15 minutes. The guy is done and he knows it. You can hear it in his voice and it's truly pathetic, yet... beautiful.

If you start to feel bad for him just remember this is all his fault and he genuinely thinks he is doing a really good job.

Yea that makes me feel worse.
There's a certain Walmart that I avoid because they put the "greeter" by the exit because he's so fucking disturbingly handicapped that I'd heel-turn the fuck out of there if he wasn't blocking my only escape.
Every time I stop there because it's convenient. Every time I autistically mutter "...y..you too" to the cute cashier while looking down. And then BAM: eye contact with this dude. Wheelchair inconveniently placed. Limb position erratic. Drool glistening.
"HAVE A GGUhhhGOOD DAYYyy"
And then smiles like he's accomplished something extraordinary while I just try to make it to my car without imploding.
That guy is Opie.

I disagree, that gross burden has never put any effort into anything.
And the dude in the wheelchair tries his best every day.

At least that penny eater will have a job in November.

And threw rocks at an old woman raking leaves because a friend told him she was a witch.

Prove she wasn't a witch

It was actually a descent sized dog

Wait... Seriously, Opie still has a show??

Dont forget he used to suck multiple dicks at NJ Turnpike rest stop glory holes.

For the first five minutes I was nostalgic, started to feel bad for him, but then I grew bored and realized the drivel that was pouring into my ears, fuck him, that hack.

Don't feel bad for him. Feel bad for
hisBam's kids. They're gonna have an unemployed ex-radio host father, which means they're likely gonna grow up in a 7 bedroom house on Long Island, with access to a beach house in the Outer banks, and 3 or 4 cars. Oh wait...that's called "Opie poverty".Cause those of us who grew up poor had beach houses we could go to when we were growing up, right?

The O&A universe is over at this point.
Anthony has become unhinged, and his drunken racist antics have overtaken any sense of humor he had.
Jim Norton has just reached an age where he's pretty much over it, and he clearly couldn't care less about being on the radio.
Opie was never any good, and without Ant and Jim propping him up he's doomed to fail. He should never have been anything more than a local morning zoo host.
Sam just wants to be a wrestling broadcaster. He doesn't care about doing a comedy show, and he's no good at it anyway.

And us? Where does that leave us?

I don't like Opie.

Vince McMahon hated Jim Ross, the greatest voice wrestling has ever known, because he sounded "like a hick" and "his deformity depresses people."
Why does Sam Roberts, who can't be nearly as stupid as he looks, think that this same person would want his little gravely-nutsack voice and retarded appearance that greatly resembles a gay dog walker in Greenwich Village, to work for his entertainment empire?

Sam has to have enough sense to realize that he will never be an actual commentator like Jim Ross. I think he's just happy to be one of those awful talking heads on a "The Life and Times of Tito Santana" DVD where he can gleefully yammer on about how much of an impact Tito had on his young Sam's life. That's all he will ever be, which basically amounts to nothing.

It's turned into an online Ron & Fez where you need to tune in to reddit to learn about the disintegrating lives of the hosts.

The danger's of giving yes men a platform.

I feel the opposite. Blind, unrelenting, rage.
n/a Opthony 2017-05-02
After so many years, I don't understand how Opie could be this dumb. He's awful but he could have a much better show if the regulars he picked were a bit more Vos, CQ, and Bobby instead of Sherod, Vic, and mad Cuban. The guys he surrounds himself with just add noise with no content. Maybe he finally burned too many bridges or maybe his ego won't let an actual funny person cohost with him anymore.

No, Tits, we're not falling for reverse psychology. Kill yourself.

I also felt bad for Hitler when the Red Army sieged Berlin.

The main thing I've taken from the Opie show is that you can be the most boring, lame radio host on the planet, and truckers will still call up and say how awesome you are.
