The doc ruined Jocktober for me.

Combined with the other docs, might have ruined the whole show for me. It's hard listening to people who are such pieces of shit. Anyone else feeling this way too lately?

When you started listening, you might have noticed that these guys are idiots. Over time, you stopped noticing/started ignoring that. Same should apply with the scumminess.

You could also take it as an interesting case study on stupidity and cuntiness with some good jokes sprinkled over it. You don't need to like people to be entertained by them. If you get angry listening to them, you would have to make an effort to keep at it to desensitize yourself.

Good point. It's just funny to listen to them trash everything for no real reason, and realize now that the show was basically just bullying 101: beating up on others to feel better about your awful self. It was and still is funny, but they're horrible, disgusting people, especially fucking Sam. I despise Sam just as much as Ant and Jim now.

Nope. The reason you hate them, is because this is the sort of people in radio and entertainment in general. Do you really think if you dug into the lives of that fat bitch and Scott and Todd, that you wouldn't find things you hated about them?

I'd listen and laugh every single day if they brought O&A back. Why? Because the whole thing is a self controlled nuclear disaster. The entire industry. It's like wrestling or politics. Full of the worst kinds of scumbags. What are you going to do? Ignore it? Why? ETHICS? Fuck off.

Definitely have to separate the artists from their art, but it's hard sometimes. Polanski was a pedophile, but he made great movies.

Polanski was a pedophile,

And a "hero", according to Anthony

(Said so himself in the Mel Gibson rant clip)

If I started this thread it would be titled, "Who TrAnthony and Worm Norton are as human beings ruined Jocktober and replays of the Opie and Anthony show for me"....

Somehow I've completely missed jocktober. I've listened to 1000s of clips, but listening to bad radio never appealed to me

What if I told you, you were listening to bad radio the whole time

Yes, I know that now. I can't listen to even a minute

Burr summed it up best when leaving the studio once and talking to Nana about the life they’d just ruined and Tony replied with something along the lines of “You can’t think of them as people.” That was the mentality of the show and fanbase back then.

O&A was never really funny, the guests were sometimes. Three faggots are just the worst. But Opie didn't rape any kids so he's alright.
