I am baffled as to why all of the other radio shows have squandered their opportunity to goof on Opie. After years of belittling other radio hosts with impunity, Opie is sailing along with only this sub pointing out how shitty the show is now.

For me, this clip will ALWAYS be the epitome of Opie's blindness to his own hypocrisy. Elizabeth Hasselbeck gets personally offended by a joke and Opie ridicules her for being overly sensitive, then with SECONDS he pouts about a joke by Otto. Fucking enraging. Clip starts at 9:59.

When Opie gets divorced, all of his patronizing "As a father..." insight will smoothly transition to even more patronizing "As a single father..." insight.

It took me long enough, but I finally realized that the "Destroyer" nickname was actually a years-long inside joke that referred to how Opie could kill the flow of anything funny on the show. Opie is still oblivious to this.

I'm happy Opie's "Andrew was a friend of the show" excuse has been pointed out to be a lie, and the fact that he threw money at Andrew now makes Opie look worse, not better.

Opie is oblivious as to how often he describes other people with the word "stupid". It's not a bit or a character; it's an insight into his personality.

Opie "hates" his nickname, but he's "stuck with it". I guess when he started in radio 30 years ago he wasn't allowed to use his real name. Damn management!

I've always felt that Opie's oblivious, unfunny, asshole personality was perfectly defined by his cake stomp "prank". This Jocktober would be a good time to dig up that load of cringe so some of his past victims can weigh in.

October 1st, 2004: Three days before the first show on XM, Opie and Anthony appeared on a brief segment titled O&A: Ungagged. If you’ve never had the pleasure of hearing Opie’s creative pent-up genius after 2 years off the radio, check it out (link below).

"You want to go there? You REALLY want to do this, bro?" If anyone in the studio had accepted Opie's challenge over the past 10 years, then maybe, just MAYBE Opie would have a shred of humility and a tougher skin.
