"Widely respected radio veteran Scott Shannon, who left the morning show at WPLJ (95.5 FM) in early 2014 amidst an unspoken sense that management felt he’d aged beyond the audience, just hit number one in the mornings at WCBS-FM (101.1), the station that had quickly scarfed him up."

Yea dis is Snickerdoodle McWhippersnapper, someone stole my battle tested microphone

BOWWWWWWWWWWW

that was Todd. Scott called into O&A and was pretty cool about it

O&A realized the error of their ways once Scott got away from his abusive relationship with Todd https://youtu.be/cmaG3GoNtiQ

Wait a second. He mentiones Jay Mohr. That unnerves me. Is it really Scott?

1000%. And he said "made Jay Mohr famous". As in, Mohr wasn't shit before. Jay is too neurotic to ever admit that.

Yeah, but you know how Jay basically morphs into different people? You never know with that motherfucker.

Jim realized Todd was the opie/Sam style pile of shit when they were doing the jocktobers. Opie always directed all of his anger at Scott up to that point and even defended Todd saying he just wanted to do a good show but was being held back by the old man. Opie let people know Todd was cool because he worked with his bud Jim Chandler. And Sam always cut the clips to highlight Scott being an old fool, not to focus on Todd talking like poopy pants Mcguilicutty in studio and forcing the 8 others in studio to laugh at all of his jokes.

Jim/Erock - Team Scott Opie/Sam - Team Todd Spaghetti nigger- team whatever the guy before him just said to avoid uncomfortable conflict

Sam was on the side of whichever one was with WWE at one point

Todd

OPIE was JEALOUS of both of them!!! SCOTT is more TALENTED while TODD is a HACK who managed to EEK out a VERY successful CAREER!!! MUCH of "JOCKTOBER" was just JEALOUSY!!! SAM and OPIE engaged in MEAN-SPIRITED attacks on PEOPLE who did DECENT SHOWS for audiences that ARE NOT lonely autistic TRUCKERS!!!

It is the SAME REASON that OPIE insulted DENNY!!! DENNY is VERY FUNNY and QUICK WITTED, which SCARED ol' GREGG "OPIE" HUGHES!!! DENNY is also HAPPY where he is and LIKES to work CLEAN!!! That ENRAGED the "OPE-STER" because he BELIEVED that he was the PINNACLE of RADIO that everyone SHOULD ASPIRE to,,, OPIE seems to BELIEVE that people like TODD would be JUST LIKE him (ANGRY and UNFUNNY) if they were GIVEN the chance!!!

Pfg-sciple is he best

This is dedication

One of our finest characters for sure.

While i'm happy this is how it all worked out, Jim's anger toward Scot makes the later jocktobers really annoying.

I did enjoy his mock phone scams and saying button button button button to mock the fake dialing.

"Buncha homos from Dubuque Iowa!!!"

Scott rules...

Wait a second, let me read my note again.

I was listening to the First Todd Show earlier today

That was a great clip. Few things make me cringe harder than hearing Todd say “We are........you.”

...battle-tested microphones... Jim's Todd voice is one of the funniest things I've ever heard on O&A

When Jim and Sam first started, they should have done a "battle tested microphone" speech with Jim doing the Todd voice.

They should have done some jocktober

That shot of Scott looks like Opie's final form.

Scott Shannon is a deity. If you ever get a chance to have a conversation with the guy you'll realize he's a grade-A ball buster. Guy rules.

He looks like someone tried to draw Opie's face onto an egg.

Let it be known that this article not only validates Scott Shannon and his appeal, but also validates the views of one Dennis Falcone who believes that the DJ format is not dead, and also details of why it is not dead, all hail Dennis Falcone. Peace be with him.

All praise to the one true piss Lord.

Praise his name

He died for our spins.

Damn. Prophetic.

The piss lord moniker is propaganda disseminated by the troglodyte Sam Roberts.

It's good because if someone uses it you can tell they're fucking stupid.

Opie made it up

Please refrain from referring to Denny as the "piss lord." That is his slave name, given to him by a jealous no-talent cunt.

Is this a HuffPost article we can get behind?

Scott and Denny in the morning!

Piss Lord be with you

He is unsightly. Also, do we know the whereabouts of Sam's mother and this creature about 30 something years ago?

YOU LISTEN HERE BUCKAROO, My name is Crazythroat McShitradio! I was on your station, and a fat kid named Meatballs ruined my program!

Hey there swizzle stick, my name is Tendereat VanRacemix and my show has become what I used to make fun of. I was in my studio the other day and you left your closeted slug at my console! When are you gonna come and pick it up?

That never happened.

Todd Pettengil couldn't even get an invite to the 25th anniversary of Raw. Would have been great if he punched out Sam though

Opie doesn't have a job.

This is Bummy McNoczechs, I was wondering if you'd be on my Facebook show at Chili's?

ME: I've got a lot of options, offers are being thrown at me!! :sniff:

and Scorch does!!!

Fuck yeah. #TeamScott

I wish Scott Shannon all of the success and wealth in the world but goddamn he looks like a malformed pencil topper.

Pretty much everyone they jocktobered are still successfully employed. Meanwhile, Opie & Anthony lost their jobs to the intern with a bad voice.

God do I miss Jocktober. I understand it would be hypocritical to make fun of bad radio at this point, but they're hypocrites all the time anyway. At least a well-executed Jocktober with Ant in studio would probably still be funny. Whatever is left of the fanbase should start pestering them in September to try and get it done. Ok. Downvote away.

That would be swell but none of them have the right to shit on other shows anymore because they are all just as bad.

They did try to bring it back on TACS a couple of years ago, but only lasted less than a week. Turned out that without Sam around the rest of them were too lazy to do the prep.

finally found something Sam is good at

Opie steers the ship, Sam shovels the coal into the engine.

iceberg ahead

The revenge of Terry Clifford.

Her revenge is slow and delicious.

"Widely despised radio hack Gregg "Opie" Hughes, who was fired from SiriusXM in late 2017 amidst an unspoken sense that management felt he’d aged beyond the audience, just hit number one in the mornings at WCBS-FM (101.1), the station that had quickly scarfed him up."

it wasnt late 2017 it was the middle of it, dont make opie look better.

The bum hasnt work since july

We need a Scott and Anthony show featuring comedian Jim Norton.

Thanks for reminding me that he exists. Now I'll spend various parts of my day repeating "I wanna see the boat move".

It's like a battery car!

I hate One Direction!

How does this article not once mention that Scott's departure from PLJ may have been caused by working with the second-biggest faggot in the industry?

is the first Opie or Fez?

He really does look like a Team America: World Police marionette with AIDS.

ON CRACK!

stands up and salutes

The idea that 80’s and 90’s music is considered appropriate for “oldies” station CBS FM is really depressing to me. I remember being in my Dad’d car in the early 80’s and listening to Doo Wop on Don K Reed’s show and Cousin Brucie. Scott Shannon is now like Wolfman Jack.

"I got a tree on my ratings book!"

ME: I know we've busted your ASS over the years but I really see myself in you

Todd

That never happened.
