It's astounding that this company treats Jim like garbage when he's the fucking STAR!!! if Opie has listeners still it's BECAUSE of JIM!! Does Sirius not understand this?? So frustrating.
The Opester went Menopausal long ago, but it's been getting worse. It wasn't Anthony's fault, it's Opie. People who follow the show get it. You have to listen for years and realize the dynamics of their relationship. It's clear WHO the funny guy was and WHO the insecure one was.
12/1/15 was the end. All Opie cares about is Opie. Does not make him a bad person, just a shit friend. Opie has been caught in so many lies over the years, it is ridiculous. Listen to the show. He's always been a crybaby. He acts like he is a radio professional,when in reality he surrounds himself with real talent. The real talent being Jimbo and Ant, just two names on his ex-co-workers list. This isn't the end for Opie unfortunately. He will continue to be a nobody surrounded by great comedians,and guests. I promise you people this.. he will always be a radio show killer, and have trouble getting along with whomever he works with. The man is just a greedy,jealous,small person,who won't listen,and talks over everyone to get a point across. Count how many times during shows he interrupts,or talks over the guests, or co-hosts.He calls it "moving the show along", when nobody wants to talk to him. I could go on and on but why bother. Control freak. Great mouth on the management too i assume.
I'm not an Opie fan by any stretch of the imagination but he does move the show along, his job is literally to control the show. he does that well, in my opinion. He's just not funny on air. I mean, Patrice would constantly interupt people but the difference is, Patrice was always more entertaining than whoever he was interupting that day. Opie's crime - and the reason nobody can be bothered listening to his bullshit - is that he's simply not entertaining.
There is a clip I was listening to recently, it was o&a, with Bill burr, started talking about hockey fights and it turned into this whirlwind conversation about banks, one world government, the future of the planet, a heated, compelling conversation, that opie was silent through, then he stops the debate to play a clip of two hockey players yell at each other. All the energy thrown out the fuckin window. It was infuriating.
There's no way Jim is ever going to forget Opie's tantrum and the shitty things he said. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if they signed for another two years. Two more years of Jim eating on air.
Opie is texbook abusive - the whole doing someone a solid so that when they get pissed off at your abusive behavior you can go "Oh, after everything I've done for you?!". They make it sound like the deal is, 'I've done this big favor for you so in return you have to take all my abuse as and when I feel like it', but no one signs up for a deal like that. A favor is returned by another favor, not a willingness to be verbally and emotionally beaten for the rest of your days.
they knew they could keep both of them with the pay increase but it's basically gone to shit. not to mention the fact that paying for XM is basically getting phased out for podcasting. funny how Howard Stern was shit talking it now it's destroying his company lol.
Wow....really hope O&J don't split up, but this lends credence to the idea of having Jimmy and Sam in the AM, and Opie & Vic / Chris D in the PM...Jimmy says he had no idea Opie was doing the afternoon show? Not a good sign. Bad call with Don W? Also not a good sign. From what Jimmy says in this clip, Sirius could be thinking about letting Jimmy walk, and I think that would be a loss all around. Definitely don't want to see Jimmy going over to Ant's show, because I can't take Ant's endless racism and gun talk.
Ya, I'm one of those in the minority that enjoys the show more now without Ant. His anti-anyone not white rhetoric had gotten ridiculously stale. Same with his creepy uncle/fratboy douche schtick. Opie is a dope, but he fits in as the heal. He and Jimmy work well together, and I like their line-up of regulars for the most part (if I hear Florentine's bullshit stories or Vic's "awe shucks" stupidity one more time I'm going to throw myself off a bridge). Just my thoughts. I like Jimmy and Sam together too.
***** Spoken like a true millenial who hasn't lived long enough to think for himself. My prefernce for the new formst has nothing to do with liberal media "controlling my mind", LOLOLOLZ! It has everything to do with simply losing interest in the old show. It happens all the time, people get tired of programs, move on to another one, and eventually the show loses steam and gets cancelled. Personal preference, that's all laddy. Personal opinion. Jimmy runs things much differently from the co-pilot chair, and I prefer what he brings more than what Ant brought. There doesn't have to be a politically charged, deeply profound reason for everything that happens in the world. Sometimes people just change their minds.
***** Seriously dude, you have some Freudian level Oedipus complex or something? What's up with changing your avatar to a 50 something woman who was probably a 7/10 23 years ago? I'm not really criticizing, it's just such an out of left field move. Bold maneuver, I must say. I don't know what to think. I feel like a dog who's shoved his head in a cereal box and can't figure his way out of the dark.
The Opie & Anthony show is a great example of the world of work. Two types of people. 1. People who are good at their jobs & maybe even have some talent in their field. 2. People who have no talent & get by through networking & cunning. I don't think it takes a genius to know which group Jimmy & Anthony are in & which group Opie & Sam are in. No surprises that Opie & Sam are the sweethearts of Sirius XM while Anthony & Jim have been given little respect for what they have brought to the company. Most corporate guys fall in to group 2 also. They are shitty at their jobs & survive by scheming which is why they have so much time for Opie & Sam. All those momentum breaking, ass licking calls from Opie to Eric Logan during the show have done Opie plenty of favours & Sam even sucks up to Opie in this video on more than one occasion. The Anthony & Jim show would be awesome. I listened to 2 of the compound media shows with them on while walking around yesterday & burst out laughing so many times. Everyone knows what most of the listeners want. Anthony & Jim have great chemistry & Anthony has learned how to "move the show along" after 2 years of hosting his solo show 4 days a week. For godsakes make it happen.
Jimmy needs to leave Opie's Show. He is being weighed down there and that's just one simple fact. I know the money is good, but Jim can do better financially & comedically elsewhere.
Jim will do the advice hour, the Boneyard, and continue his standup career. And hopefully he'll join The Anthony Cumia Network. Opie will try to go solo and eventually either fade into obscurity or do a terrestrial who gives a fuck morning zoo.
There was a clear dynamic with Opie and Anthony, in that if Opie was out, Jim and Ant would spiral out without subjects, and without Opie keeping them on topic, and shows without Ant are just talking for hours about who Opies favorite bands are. Opie was necessary, but as a producer. Jim is drowning in the mediocrity of Opies show.
These new "friends of the show" suck, Mark Normand, fuckin awful Theo von, vice Henley is boring too. I keep listening out of habit, Jim is the only one who makes me laugh anymore
I could see Jim leaving if he was as big as Burr, stupid Schumer, Louis or Gaffigan...but unfortunately lil yeeemy isn't on that level yet, if ever. He probably has it easier/better staying on SXM than doing his own thing. What would be his big money maker besides comedy shows if he leaves SXM? But what the fuck do I know...i'm just spitballin'.
damn I wish Jim would just go out to the Compound and do radio with Ant.
I think Long Island is too far for Jimmy or he would. How great would it be though?
Didn't Ant get a studio in the city tho?
+Otacon you're right, ant's studio is in the city now
Jim could do it. Although there's no way Ant could pay him what SXM does.
***** Jimmy's salary isn't worth as much as the exposure he gets on Sirius. He needs somewhere to get that type of exposure.
if Sam and Opie DIED today, i couldn't possibly give any less of a shit.
sam roberts looks like a young richard simmons in that pic
sam is like a mix between galliger, that gay exercise guy, and carrot top.
3Way Entertainment hilarious
Sam should be the leading man in a Quest for Fire remake.
Hahahahahaha!, that rules!
holy fucking cruel
Norton is so admirably diplomatic on every situation.
Morning Glances with Jim & Sam
Sam looks like that kid that would say something to piss you off and then go, "UMAD BRO? HEH HEH HEH"
A dork. He looks like a dork.
not really.
+Inebriated Genie He looks like complete shit.
OPIE'S SOLO SHOW = BORRRRRRRRRRRRRRING
It's astounding that this company treats Jim like garbage when he's the fucking STAR!!! if Opie has listeners still it's BECAUSE of JIM!! Does Sirius not understand this?? So frustrating.
Opie will repel all away from him with his crazy chick behavior.
The Opester went Menopausal long ago, but it's been getting worse. It wasn't Anthony's fault, it's Opie. People who follow the show get it. You have to listen for years and realize the dynamics of their relationship. It's clear WHO the funny guy was and WHO the insecure one was.
+Flip per who-who Robin
Sam looks like a Halloween decoration

It's always about "OPIE OPIE OPIE", "ME ME ME".
I'm not an Opie fan by any stretch of the imagination but he does move the show along, his job is literally to control the show. he does that well, in my opinion.
He's just not funny on air. I mean, Patrice would constantly interupt people but the difference is, Patrice was always more entertaining than whoever he was interupting that day.
Opie's crime - and the reason nobody can be bothered listening to his bullshit - is that he's simply not entertaining.
he sounded like a major douche telling Jimmy they're not that close to tell him things in such a whatever manner.
There is a clip I was listening to recently, it was o&a, with Bill burr, started talking about hockey fights and it turned into this whirlwind conversation about banks, one world government, the future of the planet, a heated, compelling conversation, that opie was silent through, then he stops the debate to play a clip of two hockey players yell at each other.

This didn't age well
jim should start his own show
Opie is texbook abusive - the whole doing someone a solid so that when they get pissed off at your abusive behavior you can go "Oh, after everything I've done for you?!". They make it sound like the deal is, 'I've done this big favor for you so in return you have to take all my abuse as and when I feel like it', but no one signs up for a deal like that. A favor is returned by another favor, not a willingness to be verbally and emotionally beaten for the rest of your days.
Sam is very lucky to get air time
Everyone's picking on sam. Jim has the "body of a 9th grade swimmer" - colin quinn on O&A 2008.
I love that "his head is full of candy".
Is this about the DL HUGHLEY argument?
+SickKnowledge82 Pretty much
they knew they could keep both of them with the pay increase but it's basically gone to shit. not to mention the fact that paying for XM is basically getting phased out for podcasting. funny how Howard Stern was shit talking it now it's destroying his company lol.
The Jim & Krusty the Clown Show!
It only took me about 5yrs to warm up to Sam :) I think I'm seriously on board with Sam, but Ant & Jim is the ticket!
"is the ticket" .... yuck!
"yuck" eww!
2 months later still feel the need to add my bleck. You stink.
older Sam gets worse he looks.
Sam looks like the goofy gremlin from "Gremlins 2"
or a mask
Homeless Jew Ron Howard lookin bag of shit.
Who cares? As a RADIO personality, we should only care about things like his voice.
... Oh.
Sam's looking like a hobo version of Bob Ross.
oh, you must be hansom dan. oh, you're hansoom.......dan

***** AAAAAAA HAAAAA HAAAAA HAAAA!!! Great comeback dude! Really, just really great stuff!!!
***** That's weird, I was just about to change my avatar to a picture of my mom too!

I think I once saw Sam on To Catch a Predator
Jesus Christ ...you need to pixilate the thumbnail...you cant show that on RUclips
is jimmy done with the show already can anybody please answer me , is jimmy no longer in the show?
He'll never be done because he's a worm. A very funny worm, but a worm nonetheless.
Leahcim Olrac lol
WELL THAT WAS ILLUUUUUMINATING
Sam sounds just like Shuli from the Howard Stern show.
The Opie & Anthony show is a great example of the world of work.

I am a fan of Opie and Jim but Sam and Jim is a really really good show. Possibly better.
NittanyNation22 you lost me at I’m a fan of Opie..
Kevin Conroy as sideshow bob
1:27, he's not human
This could very well be a negotiation tactic by Norton to get more money out of SiriusXM/Opie.
Can’t stand Sam 🤦🏾♂️
How much of Brock Lesnar throwing a cigarette at him like Sport in Taxi Driver does Sam owe to Opie?
Jimmy needs to leave Opie's Show. He is being weighed down there and that's just one simple fact. I know the money is good, but Jim can do better financially & comedically elsewhere.

I would listen to jim and sam if they promised to never have mark normond on.
These new "friends of the show" suck, Mark Normand, fuckin awful Theo von, vice Henley is boring too. I keep listening out of habit, Jim is the only one who makes me laugh anymore
Opie stinks . I'm not a hater either , he really isn't very good at his job
I could see Jim leaving if he was as big as Burr, stupid Schumer, Louis or Gaffigan...but unfortunately lil yeeemy isn't on that level yet, if ever. He probably has it easier/better staying on SXM than doing his own thing. What would be his big money maker besides comedy shows if he leaves SXM? But what the fuck do I know...i'm just spitballin'.
jimmy has the most fragile ego in the world. what a little baby
Well the Opie and Vic show is terrible, so Jimmy should just go. Jimmy needs a strong co-host and he will have a great show.
Could Sam possibly look any worse than that. Jesus...
Fucking denim jacket
Sam looks rough in this pic
Sam is a handsome fellow!
Jim should finish his sentences and stop constantly eating and drinking on mic! it's very unprofessional ! Opie is the show case closed !
eh jim and sam are both not leading men at all
Gallagher gaythousand
Sam is not funny in the least
Matt Wiens much better than Opie
