Unpopular Opinion: Jim and Sam is worse than Opie Radio and Compound Media garbage.
100 2018-05-11 by Boxatorium
I really hate to say it, but Opie mercilessly mocking Carl's living situation and his ridiculous delusions of grandure, not to mention the Junkie and Racist show aren't as bad as Jim and Sam.
They're all terrible, but Jim and Sam is the worst.
A show based around wrestling, pretending to be an MMA fan, and complaining about how long it took to get your eggs benedict just shouldn't exist.

Not a high bar.

Agreed
1 iWhoreSchortSchorts 2018-05-11
The rotating guest COMICS on O&J were better. I hate “celebrity” interviews with every fiber of my being. Have Vos and Bawby on twice a week then I will listen.
1 IbDotLoyingAwright 2018-05-11
Normand is funny sometimes.
1 iWhoreSchortSchorts 2018-05-11
Oh yeah for sure, he’s always good on LOS too. I more or less meant all of the rotating comics including Normand, Soder, Florentine, Brennan, and I liked all of Artie’s appearances too but I said those two because they’re my favorite out of the bunch.

Comics are fucking gay. Stand up is dead.

Sure, but a 3 is better than a 2 and it's still not what you want to see when you're Playing poker.
1 EdguhMellencamp 2018-05-11
I don't listen to any of these shows and I still agree.
1 Belchides 2018-05-11
I thought I was the only one. Felt like an outcast when they talked about that new AA Host with the fat wife.
1 BoardroomBimmy 2018-05-11
I haven't listened to any of this awful shit in 4 years.
1 Phkna1 2018-05-11
Jim and Sam is the worst thing I have ever heard.
1 LookInRI 2018-05-11
I hate to say it, but Stern was worse the last time I tried to listen. His interviews are good though. If he's interviewing someone I care about like Neil Young then I'll listen. Everything else is shit.
1 ShadowbannedKeithM 2018-05-11
Check out Jim's advice show. Literally the worst thing ever broadcasted.
1 Phkna1 2018-05-11
I have blocked it out of my memory to protect myself from brain damage.
1 iWhoreSchortSchorts 2018-05-11
Yeah he really has no business giving addicts advice when he said he would probably kill himself if he relapsed.
1 mannylou 2018-05-11
sammy's night time shit show with who-kid and those other duds beg to differ

I hate Opie, but at least he isn’t trying to act hip like Sam
1 Boxatorium 2018-05-11
Opie's nonsense claims could almost be written off as a bit.
Sam's unwarranted sense of arrogance and accomplishment are 100% sincere and show that he's a piece of shit.
1 BMoneyCPA 2018-05-11
Let's not take this too far. Opie is a idiotic asshole, none of his delusions are a bit. Don't rewrite history here.
1 cardaderdention 2018-05-11
Thats the bit!
1 NickDutchNinja 2018-05-11
Opie's entire public personality was a bit. Opie was Bizarro Opie, as are several of the sub's regulars.
1 SibHashian13 2018-05-11
Don't forget about Sam's voice. I'd rather listen to someone scratching a chalkboard
1 Burnin_Embers 2018-05-11
TSS... yeah he should try acting hand or leg instead.
1 dickybell86 2018-05-11
Agreed. AA show can be good but it's just too few and far between; Opie's podcast shows real potential to be the most hateable hate listen ever put out. Jim and Sam are just middle of the road boring morning annoying cunty humourless green stinky gash ash.
1 blackirishlad 2018-05-11
I was listening to an episode the other day and I realized the AA show was actually a hell of a lot smoother with better guests than the Jim and Sam show. It blew my fucking mind. Jim and Sam at times could be good, but for long stretches it's just so harsh on the ears.
I mean, Ant and Art are pretty predictable, but Ant still has his radio chops to fall back on when he needs to. He's not a very dynamic person, but that's still more than could be said for Jim or Sam.
1 deep_legal_shit 2018-05-11
Opie and Carl (so far) early CM Cumia Show > Anthony and Artie > all of Jim and Sam
honest opinion
1 consensualsexnovd 2018-05-11
I don't see how it's possible for something to be worse than AA. I'm literally trying to think of any show of any kind that I'd want to listen to less than AA and can't.
1 Boxatorium 2018-05-11
Its a show hosted by an old know-nothing queer that obsessively complains about his breakfast and airline travel, while also trying to discuss current events, despite being completely ignorant of literally everything outside of his narrow, obsessive interests and bizarre cloistered lifestyle.
Then throw a useless monkey sidekick.
1 Ope-postle 2018-05-11
Opie>sam
1 LookInRI 2018-05-11
I love seeing this getting upvotes. I used to say this all the time and get downvoted. Sam sucks.
1 oklolol 2018-05-11
The carl's cabin episode of opie's podcast about IPA BEER was actually really entertaining, and well formatted and paced.
It's quite likely it as good because opie wasn't in it

all of it is awful. Really awful. Worse than anything they jocktobered.
1 burlapsack69 2018-05-11
Norton is the worst of the 3.
1 late_50s_why 2018-05-11
Hes the only one that had to scam the ona fan base like a bobo and still thinks he's the most righteous person on earth
1 Ants_Oily_Hair 2018-05-11
Opie Radio Podcast is the best programming of the three right now.
put that in your pipe and smoke it.
1 Mu_Scevich 2018-05-11
Nothing, absolutely nothing sucks worse than Opie’s show right toward the end when Jim distanced himself. That “show” sounded like some AI machine piecing random words and over the top laughter together into a indecipherable pastiche of inane babbling nonsense. I found myself at times not even hearing it as conversation, it was verbal wallpaper.
1 late_50s_why 2018-05-11
It would be worst if all three were talking about their bad egg whites and Apple mother fucking them
1 SalmonDoughnuts 2018-05-11
Opie at least done some show prep by reading that mornings newspapers and talking to that gossiping neanderthal Kenny as he carried Tits to the studio. Anytime J+S conduct an interview you can see how fucking wildly unprepared they are. I'm saying that like the non guest segments are wildly captivating
1 anodyne01 2018-05-11
Are you forgetting about the green screen? Anthony’s local cable quality show is not only bad, it’s embarrassing.
1 ScarletNumbered 2018-05-11
No one has forgotten.
1 Christopher_Barton 2018-05-11
I actually think Carmody Central was a better listen than Jim & Sam.
1 semihat 2018-05-11
I agree. When I listen to Jim and Sam, I believe they are intentionally doing a bad show. I think Anthony at least tries to put on what he believes is a good show
1 CrozzCat 2018-05-11
Even here you'll see the odd AA fan and for some reason a few Opie fans. I don't get it but it happens. Absolutely nobody likes the Jim and Sam show. What even is it? It's not a comedy show, it isn't political, interesting or topical. It's just bland time killing right from the first minute, it starts with a huge intro and when most people will be pulling up to work and finishes before mid morning work breaks - unemployed people don't wake up in time for it. Who is it for?
The only time I tried to listen to it properly they had a female wrestler in and talked to her about her depression for ages. I've never tried again.
1 MonsterSteve 2018-05-11
Not unpopular at all. Compound shows are clearly superior to Jim and Sam. With Compound you have to sit through a lot of political nonsense but there are a few good laughs in there. Jim and Sam is just pure dogshit. Sam talking about WWE and Jim talking about how his eggs are cold. Fucking yuck show.
1 lordofallshit 2018-05-11
Opie is the best show and that is pathetic
1 SledgeBammer 2018-05-11
I hate to say it, but maybe Opie did have more insight into radio than any of the rest of these queens. Opie was the first to recognize the fact that you have to pay people if you want them on your show. Plugging gigs might have been enough for Jackie on the old Stern show but it just isn’t enough anymore .
There are thousands shows and podcasts fighting over a limited number of interesting guests/cohosts. Money is the only way to set yourself apart . By paying meat truck, frijole fryer, and the tongue, Opie showed that he understood the way the wind was blowing.
The overlords at (((Sirius))) would never cough up an extra scheckel to bring in Bobby or CQ or Vos in on a regular basis. And Granthony doesnt have two nickels to rub together. Opie dipped into his own check to pay for his clown show.
1 DickSlit 2018-05-11
I unironically agree.
1 Nezlo_Nuke_Em 2018-05-11
Stop. Fake news. Jim and Sam is horseshit but Opies struggle ass podcast is waaaay worse.
1 Yakovpiscopo 2018-05-11
Anthony was funny
Opie, love him or hate him, gave a forum and frame work to some huge acts
Sam has no such credentials
1 chulathedog 2018-05-11
I guess I forgot to laugh
1 shogun647 2018-05-11
Lets just hope whenever their contract is up Sirius thinks like we do and kicks them to the curb. I used to really like Jim but he’s just a pretentious twat now. And sam... I’ve always hated everything about him. Just go do your little rasstling show for all your neck beard fans. I can’t listen to his voice, just hearing him infuriates me.
1 TheElDan 2018-05-11
I guarantee there’s a wrestling forum somewhere where someone is telling Sam to quit wrestling and only do Jim and Sam.

1 Mr_Brightside23 2018-05-11
Really?.. You're either all new fans, or you all have Irritable Down-Syndrome.
Opie is the absolute worst person to ever speak into a microphone.. Period. Sniff..
Jim & Sam > A cunt farting in the wind > Opie
1 ae_1985 2018-05-11
I can't argue with you here
1 AiCPearlJam 2018-05-11
The show where none of Opie's "guys" showed up and Opie panicked at the beginning of it was way more entertaining than anything Jim and Sam has done. J&S's peak was the Nancy Grace interview.
1 CommodorePawsey 2018-05-11
Opie with Jim was better than any of the current O&A mutations.
1 RacistCyberbully 2018-05-11
It’s definitely worse, but it’s like saying eating microwaved shit is worse than eating cold shit.
1 onemancrimespree 2018-05-11
Anything Sam touches turns to shit
1 jewniggercuck 2018-05-11
Hot sauce in the dickhole VS Giant jalapeño up the ass
1 Dagidugidai 2018-05-11
I would still say Anthony is the worst of the 3. It's just a joyless empty reaction, utterly empty, pathetic, and meaningless. It genuinely makes me sad.
1 havingmadfun 2018-05-11
What makes them worse is the platform they are on
1 mannylou 2018-05-11
sam is horrendus, probably the worst ever, jim has given up hope and doesnt even try knowing hes saddled to a dud who idea of comedic repartee is "so you dont think he's the (fill in the blanks)". the show is much worse that o&j (opie at least knew how to construct and set up a show and be the straight man - sometimes) which was much much worse than o&a.
1 Chuck_Chasem 2018-05-11
Jim and Sam is a constant 4-5/10, proper background when taking a shit. Anthony's shitshow is a 2/10. Opie's show is unlistenable and sad.
1 EugeneGrimgold 2018-05-11
They're all terrible.
