We dont deserve him
1 stinkypussay 2018-07-02
"He also insults opie a lot"
he's been doing this on twitter quite a lot recently
1 Douchegeyser 2018-07-02
Lmao, if you scroll down a bit he responded from his Opie quotes account.
1 RBuddCumia 2018-07-02
Please let there be a falling out.
1 NateJay82 2018-07-02
It turned from playful ribbing to genuine venom by Episode 7.
1 Mu_Scevich 2018-07-02
You know it takes a little bit of your soul each time you do this. Stop now before it’s too late.
Just kiddin. Keep em coming.
1 XenusWingman 2018-07-02
Is anyone actually advertising on this shit show?
1 jofreal 2018-07-02
Even Deep Discount refuses to associate with him.
1 ScarletNumbered 2018-07-02
Well they have standards
1 Whydontulovemelynsi 2018-07-02
I firmly believe this man would have been killed by now if his building wasn't under constant protection from the secret service.
1 dom6502 2018-07-02
He somehow makes something as normal and straightforward as loving your father to be completely weird and annoying
1 Czar662 2018-07-02
In all seriousness, how many more of these episodes can he possibly dish out? It’s all the same nonsense. He hasn’t even done 20 episodes and he’s told the Shaman bullshit story at least 10 times. How much longer till he loses this gig? Cause after that, his suicide won’t be far off.
1 Lish_fips89 2018-07-02
Fawwkin hayda.
1 InnocentChrisKuhn 2018-07-02
Coincidence that Heroin junkie Artie Lange is also infamous for endlessly repeating stories?
The shaman played a number on Opie
1 joomommyhappy 2018-07-02
You're thinking about this like a non-retarded person.
For Tits, these are decent, probably borderline enlightening, conversations.
1 Nordberg2 2018-07-02
As far as i can tell: there is no gig.
There is no business model. No commercials, no web ads, no Patreon. All expenses are running the web site. Is Opie paying those clowns for coming on the show? And the traffic / upload cost can't be that high, because nobody actually listens to those shows.
I think someone said, that Westwood One didn't even hire Opie / pay him money.

He's a delusional old man trying to keep up a facade to prove da haterrzzz wrong. He's MORE than a button pusher. He CAN steer the ship, AND add to the conversation. He DOES have friends and people know and care about him. He DEFINITELY has a happy marriage and some very bright kids. Everyone that went on to hate him over the years, its all their fault. You really wanna go there? Let it go. Cuz he'll fawkin go there if you want to to be completely hawnest wicha.
1 McGowan9 2018-07-02
It's been pointed out before but Tits isn't the kind of person to kill themselves. He's neither introspective or self-critical enough to reach that level of self-loathing and depression, nor is he aggressive and decisive enough to do the job. He will go to his grave believing that everything he does is great and that "the haters" were always out to get him.
And (because life is unfair) he will probably die a very old man and quickly and painlessly in his sleep. Meanwhile, Mr Rogers died of an aggressive and extremely painful form of stomach cancer. Go figure.
1 Phkna1 2018-07-02
He and Sam have a lot in common.
1 jfjfgjgfjdfgjgfjdgfj 2018-07-02
so does this break the opie ipa grapefruit beer mention streak? i NEED my opie beer bi-weekly updates.
1 dhort13 2018-07-02
This analysis is completely inaccurate. The official title has 4 E's in "Yeeeeah!"
1 NateJay82 2018-07-02
Microsoft Word corrected it because even computers think "Nobody is retarded enough to believe this is a real word"
1 realister 2018-07-02
sounds terrible
1 Ed_Wuncler_Da_3rd 2018-07-02
That was even almost painful to read. Actually listening must be torture.
1 dom6502 2018-07-02
You can tell he's already fading... No way he makes it past 50.
1 PlasticJugVodka 2018-07-02
Woof!
1 DataEast1 2018-07-02
OP is a masochist. God bless you.
1 ppeachy 2018-07-02
You're a saint on eart. Thanks
1 fuckstartmyheartx 2018-07-02
Why is Tim Sabean a guest? Hes a fucking producer. He must be one of the very few friends opie has left.
1 radiospringy 2018-07-02
You can’t even give him that much credit. He’s a fucking program director
1 Icon_Crash 2018-07-02
I'm curious about this bit... Any chance for a summary without having to boost his numbahs?
1 KangolVos 2018-07-02
Is Ms. Chipperson the honeypot?
1 NateJay82 2018-07-02
Even after doing 18 episodes of this, there is nothing more annoying than Jim and this subreddit trying to retcon Chip into an Opie parody.
1 NateJay82 2018-07-02
Carl got back from California. He was on the phone with his lawyer talking about business. He walked into his house. His wife started yelling "You are physically and emotionally abusive. I want you to leave right now". Carl's lawyer told him it was a setup and to get out immediately. As Carl is leaving he can see his wife's family's cars parked at the side of the house.
The desired reaction was to gang up on Carl, get him angry/confused/refusing to leave his house, then call the police with all the witnesses (her family) testifying how violent and unhinged he is. A very common tactic among women and their parents.

Fun fact, Nick Solares was in a racist skinhead punk band called Youth Defense League in the 80s.
1 DaveNone 2018-07-02
The only play by play analysis I want to hear is the one below.
Podcast opens with shitty music
Carl announces the dive bar they are podcasting from
Vic, Sherrod and Carl fake laugh and ask Opie why he's so quiet
Suddenly there are screams of "He's got a gun"
There's a loud bang and the sound of Vic puking
Carl is screaming like a girl "Opie shot himself! He's dead!"
As the mics cut off you hear Sherrod ask "We still getting paid?"
1 hard_to_explain 2018-07-02
Why can't it be a triple murder suicide?
1 radiospringy 2018-07-02
They're just going in circles now. This is what happens when Opie can't take phone calls.
1 BillyMac814 2018-07-02
I just listened for the first time after reading this shit post.
I don’t listen to either and haven’t for years, at first it was like hearing an old friend again. That lasted right up until Vic spoke up and then it was like listening to an old friend that moved to Alabama and has a group of new friends that are annoying as fuck and your old friend isn’t the same person you remember. I made it about 20 minutes.

Again,Thank you..Please get your ears checked monthly for cancer, your a Saint.
