SiriusXM has changed their free trial policy. Now I won't get to listen to Sam & Jim even by accident.

It used to be that you would just put in some basic info (first and last name, email, etc) and you could get a free 30 day trial. It was great, especially with the . (dot) hack in the email addresses. I listened to O&A for years without ever paying a dime.

Today I was feeling like I needed to punish myself, so I went to sign up for a new free trial and not they require you to enter in billing information!

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted!

Now you know what homeless people feel when they find the dumpster has been padlocked shut and they can no longer indulge in the rotten, fetid remains of something people once enjoyed.

Bad analogy. No one once enjoyed Jim and Sam. Although the rotten, fetid remains certainly applies.

Jim and Sam are the rotten, fetid remains of O and A, dummy

Jim and Sam are the rotten fetid remains of Opie and Anthony you dumbfuck

Exactly.

Just move into different apartments with month-to-month leasing and apply for new credit cards every month.

I have a Sirius in the truck and I still hardly get to hear them because every other show on that channel is live and replayed 22 hours a day. Nice flagship show faggots.

What is the "dot hack?"

Gmail (and probably others too, but definitely Gmail) ignores all dots in an address, so [email protected] and [email protected] looked like 2 different addresses to the old Sirius trial system, but actually routed to the same Gmail account. Rinse/repeat.

Thanks brothaman!

I've used old prepaid cards with like a dollar on them for free Netflix trials. I'd just make a new email account and put the info in. They'd give you a month free, I got at least four free months before by doing that. Not sure if it still works that way.

Was it?

SXM is a terrible service and you can find a show exactly like Jim & Sam on any local terrestrial station. They are doing you a favor.

Last time I checked someone was still uploading them to yt. It's been a while since I checked or cared for that matter

When I used to listen, I gave up on the app and just used youtube. The app randomly skips forward a few seconds, or just loses its place altogether.

So cool
