Remember when O&A fucked with Bobo and made him believe Sirius was having him arrested during a fugitive bit? I believe Opie does have a source and that's what this guys doing. He's pandering to Opie knowing he'll run with it on Twitter and this sub will just mock him when it all falls flat. Well played sir.

That's the best case scenario. Otherwise it's him thinking he's trolling us and being Andy Kaufman again. He's not that delusional. He's stupid and he's a cunt, but I don't think even the situation he's in now would drive him so batshit that he actually believes that figure.
And he's had maybe 10-20 people he's retweeted saying it. If you're that diehard of a fan you're going to tell him you canceled so he can show the support. He should have 10,000 out of 100,000 examples minimum to show.
i've wanted to tweet at him that i've cancelled my sub just for a laugh. i wonder how many people are doing this out of those 10-20 people. hopefully 11.
The fans didn't turn on Anthony until he went full retard on Compound Media. And when Ant was fired, three people showed up to complain.
I'm an old-school O&A fan, and I can vividly remember the RAGE I felt when they were nearly fired over Homeless Charlie. They were doing great radio and firing them for something a GUEST did was fucking stupid.
But by 2014, I was basically "meh" about Anthony getting canned. I sorta hoped it would kick Jim and Opie in the ass and they'd figure out how to be funny again.
For about five years there, it was one of the biggest shows on FM radio. It was basically Howard Stern, Opie and Anthony, and Adam Carolla. Tom Leykis was big on the west coast but never 'hit' nationwide.
And it doesn't make sense considering most of his listeners are truckers, and they're not going to get rid of one of their only sources of entertainment.
Agreed. I used to work in telecom. If you have 14M customers and you lost 1%, that's 140K. They call it "churn." Just part of doing business. Customers come and customers go.
An obsessive jealousy over other radio hosts who get treated better than me in any form
Holds multi-year grudges that could be easily resolved but does not confront co-workers over interpersonal conflicts like an adult (bonus: with the gall to call Andrew "Dice" "Not-a-Jew" Clay mental for doing the exact same thing)
If you fire me for sexually harassing overweight men in company washrooms I will attempt to damage the company out of revenge! maannn
Even if this were close to being true...so what? He wasn't fired for subs, he was fired for violating NY Labor laws taking video of Roland in the toilet. Besides, if you had that many loyal subs, they wouldn't have made you Jason Ellis's bitch, taken your name off the channel, and moved you to a shit time slot. Oh, yeah, forgot about that part, huh?
I'm sure this "Howard fired me" act is keeping Linzi from firing you from your marriage, Gregg, but it doesn't fly here.
So he could never find out the listener numbers for his channel according to him but now he can find out cancellation numbers because of his firing. I hate that lying old man.
This isn't delusion - don't give him that out. There is a source who told him this, or there isn't. Unless someone at SXM is fucking with him, he's lying. There isn't, and he's lying.
Opie should hop on meth before he commits suicide. He could finally get some of the fame he aches for. Ache for the pipe, Opie, and you'll get those fans.
I doubt Opie and Anthony had 100K listeners at the end of the run and you'll never get me to believe that Opie replace Anthony and Jimmy with Chris Rock's untalented cousin, a 65 year old lesbian hillbilly meat truck operator and a Cuban deli owner was doing Opie and Anthony numbers. How would they even prove that?
idk even Opie's awful (and I mean awful) videos on Facebook get 30k-40k views. It's more than possible they had 100k listeners. Most are going to be casual though, not dedicated autists like us.
Also paid subscribers is another matter. I've never paid XM a dime since I found O&A in 2009.
Who would trust Tits with "insider info" knowing full well that he's a fucktarded shit-stirrer who also happens to be incredibly dumb? What do they have to gain?
his dad was probably the same type of person with none of the skills that give normal people self-awareness (ie, intelligence, being humble, social skills, etc) but plenty that help create an imaginary force field to protect them from reality.
I was one of the fans who was really pushing back against the Opie hate for years. I still think he wasn't that bad as a 3rd-wheel co-host.
Especially compared to someone like Sam, who some people here seem to think is an improvement over Opie, whereas I can stand his voice for more than 10-20min, let alone listen to his uninteresting childish hobbies.
But Opie repeatedly brought this on himself. His untreated mental illness has made him totally oblivious to his own self-destruction. He continually glosses over serious personal issues as merely haters and dummies.
But even ignoring the endless examples where he's more than brought this on himself, there is no way there would be this much backlash, consistently over years and years, from some of the biggest fanboys of the show, unless he has some serious responsibility in the matter.
The fans here are complete assholes and often unfairly demand perfection at all times, and unfairly think he needed to be a comedian when he already had 2 hilarious ones on the show, but even if they are only right 25-30% of the time there has been SO many obvious incidents where Opie is more than enough to be the primary one to blame here.

Jesus. Isn't it exhausting keeping track of and discussing every fabricated piece of shit this idiot produces? Don't you guys have anything better to do?
I think every time you guys talk about Opie stupid unbelievable tweets he puts his feet on his desk and chuckles to himself like he's some kind of mastermind.
Or in other words, the company retained 99.997 percent of its customers. I'm sure the 4.5 billion dollar company is just gutted that its qgonna lose out on like 18 million dollars give or take.
He has to be throwing this out in jest as a hyperbolic goof on his sad state of affairs. A rare moment of self-awareness and self-deprecation. He couldn't possibly delude himself into thinking anyone would buy this claim for a second. 100k people who were solely onboard with the platform so they could hear four unfunny losers cackle at nothing and swap recipes. What a preposterous concept. The amount of people who were so incensed by his (overdue) dismissal that they unsubscribed has got to be less than a hundred. His audience was presumably almost entirely comprised of hate listeners, those who tolerated it as white noise, and people who just couldn't bear to extinguish the OnA torch.
He's just saying this shit to get people talking on here. Just ignore him. He's not worth talking about until Jimmy and A&A Jocktober him and then when he starts working for Brother Weaze.
How does he think they'd even track something like this? There's a checkbox when someone cancels that says "Because Opie and the restaurant guy don't have a show anymore" and that'd be in a database accessible by his "well placed source"?

Technically Sirius might have lost 100,000 in the time he has been fired. But 99,979 of those were unrelated to his firing.
