Also, we encourage our listeners to give us a five-star review

We have some new ones to read later in the show.
But first, we'll be reviewing a podcast called
OPRADIAN.
No way, really.
Yes.
If you look at OP's merch,
I've seenpie's merch?
Oh, I've seen Opie's merch before.
Yes.
You almost ended up with an Opie radio hat, except for it's insanely overpriced.
You're going to buy me an Opie radio?
I was.
I was.
But then I found out that you had your own merch and I'm like, I have to fuck it.
And it's fucking cost half as much.
So how much is it?
Opie, a hat like 30 bucks.
Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ.
Yeah. And you know what I do with that.
You know, you land right on the merch page when you went to like go to his thing.
Yeah. It doesn't you don't go to the podcast page. No, you go to the merch page.
That's all he has. It's merchandise. It's the only thing he's got going on.
We listen to his show because he had stuttering John on along with Jackie
the joke man. We had a revisit Opie radio. The first time we've revisited a show, well
I shouldn't say that. We revisited a show quite a bit. It's the first time the main feature
of WTP is a show that we've done before. But this is just too good. It's a perfect
storm. We always listen to the show separately. We have not discussed it with each other beforehand. It was very hard not to it's hard not to because you devote so much time
This was a two-parter. Yeah, episode 46 and 47 he put out 46 on Monday
47 on Thursday so he did one show with these guys and made his entire week's worth of work. Yep must be nice
So this might have to be a two-party.
I could probably turn this into a two-parter.
It's like three hours of episodes.
It's a lot.
There's really a lot to get to.
And I don't even know where to start.
I had multiple people.
Our teaser last week worked amazing.
Yeah.
Multiple people reached out and actually listened
to this show in anticipation of our review of it. And I feel bad for these people. They were not what's amazing. Multiple people reached out and actually listened to this show in anticipation of our review of that.
And I feel bad for these people.
They were not happy about it.
No one was happy about it.
Like, holy shit, I actually went and listened to the show.
Just annoying banter, it doesn't go anywhere.
Yeah, that's Oby Radio.
If you've gotten this far listening to this
and think that you should go listen to it, do not.
Right.
If you want to listen to
unfunny people walk on eggshells around each other about oh did I offend you? Is somebody
going to be offended? It's not fun. It's not funny. All right. Let me start off with this then
because Stuttering John starts off on the show before Jackie the joke man gets there and they're
both from Howard Stern. So there's a lot of Howard Stern talk on this show.
But John wants to know why he hasn't,
he was never asked to be back on OP show
when he was on serious.
He was a guest one time, right?
And then he's all upset because he's like,
what's going on?
So here's the, here's the clip of OP explaining
why John wasn't asked back to be on the show.
But it was more like, at that point,
we knew like the writing was on the wall and they were they pretty much had it out for me
So I was hanging out with my guys more than anything. We didn't get a lot of guests on the
Imagine that that last version. I didn't know all right, so that's OBS excuse the writing was on the wall
We didn't have a lot of guests anymore
You know wasn't you it was us
However, OBS a fucking liar. Yeah.
Because all I had to do was go back to a couple episodes ago,
and I think these clips came from the best debate
in the universe episode that I did.
This is Opie on the beach,
talking about how getting fired
from serious blindsided them.
Not gonna lie, yeah.
It was devastating.
I was really, really bummed out, really, really depressed.
I really wasn't sure what I wanted to do
after that happened.
I was very, very surprised.
I was let go by Sirius XM, extremely surprised.
Oh, he was very, very surprised.
And he says this.
And wow, did that come out of nowhere.
It came out of nowhere.
And then on this show, he goes,
the writing was on the wall.
We run our way out.
That's why I didn't have guests anymore.
Are you lying to me or Stuttering John?
Oh, 100% John.
He's tried to dodge, interacting with John as much as he can.
Oh, no, maybe it has something to do with my clip for.
Before I do that though, I just have one more piece of my package here.
So Stuttering John makes up excuses.
He gives Ulpy excuses for him.
He says, yeah, I didn't know it.
Maybe Howard said I couldn't come back to serious or maybe because I did Anthony's show.
And that's why he didn't want to have me back.
And Ulpy goes, no, no, no, no.
I mean Howard, I'm way off his radar.
And so are you.
And Anthony doesn't talk to me.
So no, I don't care about that.
And then I have a clip on why maybe he didn't ask me
to be back at the show.
This is how captivating John is as a guest.
And then, that's Southern John, as a guest at a show.
John, what do you got?
Good play clip for.
All right.
And you still go by OP, right?
Sort of it.
Because it's Greg, it's OP. Well well he doesn't even know what the fucking column
I don't either of those good friends maybe because you're an unfunny bore who doesn't know how to talk
Yeah, he's not a get anymore no
Sudden Jen you're not a famous person at this point. I want to just talk about he he mentions
He wasn't asked to come back on the show. He's not sure why is it because I was on Anthony and then Opie goes,
why did you talk shit about me on Anthony's show? And this is two guys having a very comfortable
conversation. Did you trash me on Anthony's show? No, no, I just, I don't know. All right,
I'll ask you right to your face because I don't, I, no, not at all, in fact, that.
I'm not sure which one's the stutterer.
There's so many clips that I have
where Olpe is stuttering more than John is.
So stuttering John is a book coming out.
He's very excited about it.
You know what I mean?
He's been promoting it for months.
Yeah, he's been promoting it for months.
And it's gonna be this tell all behind the scenes
on Howard and Leno, and it's got all this stuff
that's gonna happen.
It's everyone knows who's suffering,
John has got to explain this.
I feel like I don't know this.
No, but we did an episode on it.
We've done a whole episode on it.
If you're listening to this show
and you don't know who's suffering, John is,
I don't have time for that.
All right, good.
You hear that, Switzerland?
We're not gonna explain it.
So this is him explaining that he's not sure when his book is coming out.
And thankfully, Jackie calls about this because this is a ridiculous thing.
It would have been promoted to book forever.
Anyway, on that note, my book is called,
these are part of my book is called easy for you to say.
And it's it'll be out sometime in October.
But and your book is going to.
Yeah, my book is mean and cutting. Really? No, wait, wait a minute. What do you mean sometime in October? You your book is gonna... Yeah, my book is mean and cutting.
Really?
Wait a minute.
What do you mean sometime in October?
You gotta have a publishing date.
Yeah.
This was released on October 11th this episode.
And he goes,
it's coming out sometime in October and checking,
he goes,
you don't have a date for when your book comes out?
How is it even fucking possible?
I know.
You don't have your shit together enough?
Skip down to my clip to it's I
Talked called it worst sellers list. So why is he getting delayed?
Because we had I was doing the audiobook and and I noticed a bunch of
Kidding gum is on the way I can't talk and I can't write so it's gonna turn out great
I imagine.
So they're talking about this book that's supposed to come out.
And yeah, you can pre-order it.
You don't know when it's gonna come out.
Nobody knows.
And Jackie says, we gotta have a release party.
That's how books work.
And then there's a hilarious joke that ensues.
Amazon.com.
But you gotta have a release party, John.
What?
A release party.
Let me know.
I know some restaurant people.
Is this a legit book?
Yeah, I had to release this morning
Be more funny fucking thing sucks. I had to release this morning. It didn't even register as a joke to me
We've never talked about Jackie the joke man on the show. I I don't think. Can I just get my take on him real quick?
Yeah.
Okay, Jackie was the head writer slash comedian
on the Howard Stern show in the 80s and 90s.
Jackie does not write jokes.
He steals other people's old jokes
and then tells them on stage, he's not a joke writer.
You guys know this, right?
I did not know that.
You didn't know that?
All of his jokes are just other people's jokes.
He's the worst kind of comedian.
And he laughs at all his jokes.
It's the first time he's ever heard them.
That I know about him. He's insufferable.
Is the best way to describe him.
Well, Jackie has his moments.
I mean, as a old Howard Stern fan,
I have a warm place in my heart for the guy.
But he's not a talented comedian.
He's definitely the most tolerable person in this room.
Yes, wow.
Yeah, because you know your car will at all.
Carls not even on the show.
Okay, what for the most part?
Let's pull back just a little bit.
We've never got into like what sums this up.
Where? No, I don't.
I got so much to get to.
Shout out to the candidate today.
Play my clip one.
This sums up the whole thing for me.
And this is Carl.
I got this is Carl talking to John. I got to it today. Play my clip one. This sums up the whole thing for me. And this is Carl.
I got this is Carl talking to John.
I got to be honest, I've told John every time at the party,
exactly what I do.
This is the most he's ever looked at me in the face.
I'm sorry if I was mean to you.
Oh, no, no, mean would have been good.
You just fucking walked away from me.
Eight years in a row.
Making no connection.
There's never this, um, you never know who could help you. You know, don't step on people on your way up because you never know who can
help you on the way back down.
John does not subscribe to that in any way.
Shedder for this is a way out of context.
He's explaining that Carl Ruiz has met Southern John at Guy Fietti's party, like a Halloween party,
eight different times. Right. These met the guy, Hey, John,
by the way, Carl Ruiz, I'm on the OP show, and Southern
John just doesn't give a show. Yeah. So now they're in the
studio together. He's like, Hey, nice to meet you, Carl.
Carl's like, I've introduced myself to you eight fucking
times. And then this is the best part about this whole conversation,
is that the reason why OP knows Carlos through Guy Fieri,
Guy Fieri used to be on OP show all the time.
OP still doesn't know how to pronounce his fucking name.
Yeah, I like to say Guy Fieri.
Because I see an R in there.
What?
It's Fieri.
But there's an R in his last name, right?
Stuttering John.
Right Stuttering John? Back me up by this by this like oh, you're just an idiot
Look and ridiculous. I can't I don't know who fucking cares when the show first starts off first off
Opie has this weird intro where oh yeah, that was my next thing. Oh, is this your next? I don't know. Yeah, but go go for it. Yeah, listen to this
Live from the Westwood One Studio.
This is the Opie Radio podcast.
They recorded this two weeks ago
and put it out in two different segments.
What's live about that?
It's the opposite of life.
Only used to be on the radio, that was live.
So the other, the usage thing is a live podcast.
That would be called a streaming show.
Right.
Is what we call that.
So one of the things that is in sufferable about this show
is the producer guy, Joe, or whenever that comes on.
Joe, yeah.
Shits all over the engineering and the producers.
Anybody who's trying to make this show not suck,
he comes on, he's like, well, this show is terrible
because Mike and this other guy fucked it all, not cuz Opie's a fucking idiot
Because everybody else is an incompetent fuckhead. So you've got this guy Joe and he's got a great radio voice
Why is Opie doing his own fucking intro? I don't know. I like what?
Oh, yeah, I wonder why is he doing I don't know I didn't understand Do you have the same clip? No, it's that. It was the same clip. That was my number two.
Yeah, so, yeah.
Since you brought up Joey, this is Joey in part two.
Oh, God, we listened to two and a half hours, plus, of this shit.
This is so much to get to.
Yeah, I must have clip this too.
I feel like we're all three of us are completely frazzled
by how fucking ridiculous this show is.
We don't know where to begin.
I can't figure it out.
So get down off the bar.
Oh my god.
I know.
All right, so this is Joey explaining that the engineer
totally fucked up and didn't have Karl Rewezz's mic pot of that.
Yeah, I could first need to address one thing because I'm sure by now you can't have Carl's mic part of that. Yeah, I'm good. First, I need to address one thing.
Because I'm sure by now you can hear that Carl's mic is hardly being picked up at times.
That's because Uber fan cop turned producer Mike Sappho isn't wearing any headphones.
So he has no clue that the channel the Cubans on is crapping out.
He has no real reference point, so it's hit or miss moving forward.
In cop lingo, it'd be like putting a blindfold on before shooting your gun.
I'm heartened too, Op.
Yep, please, as long as you're firing that gun towards Opiea John and Jackie, then I'm
fine with it.
What kind of morning zoo shit is that?
Yeah, I had that same clip.
It's called that suck explanations.
If you have to have somebody come on and explain.
By the way, the reason why this show is not funny
is because the whole surf very tail it to.
You know, back to the show, I'll be.
The show sucks because Opie burned all the bridges,
doesn't trust anyone.
So he hired his friend who was a cop
to be the audio engineer on a radio show.
Why don't you hire a cop to fucking do your taxes next?
Slash body air to protect him.
All the people that need him.
Guys, keep in mind, this is not an independent podcast.
It sounds like it is.
This is Westwood one.
It's a corporation.
Yes.
Behind this fucking show.
And at one point, I don't think I clipped this.
At one point, they start talking about,
hey, are you gonna get a job back at serious XM and and Opie's going, wow
Carl and I might go back on the radio. We have offers.
Dude, you're, ah, you work for a company. You have a show.
Play my clip nine. Do you have that? Yep. Okay.
He and the Cuban love serious XM.
That's a place to set it.
Oh, why? Why? Are you gonna get a show back there?
Hey, yeah. Oh, no.
We might go somewhere else.
Well, fuck him.
I can be third, Mike.
We might, we have an offer.
We have an offer to go back to radio.
Stuttering job application.
And you hear dopey sidestep that so fast.
He's just like, yeah, I think we're just
going to break up the show then.
Yeah.
That's the end of the offer.
There's no offer.
I'm not going anywhere.
You just hear his car take up.
Yeah.
I could be third Mike speaking of third, but you're saying Westwood won is a professional radio
operation or they, they're some professional play clip three for me.
Yeah.
You don't have to keep Jackie waiting if he wants to come in.
I mean, no, we're talking to you about your book and stuff. No, I know. I just that. Why don't you do that to John?
He's been, he's been in showbiz so long because Jackie's gonna fake it to me. I don't know.
What they're doing is they're not telling you the truth. There's not, there's not an extra
microphone. Yeah, that's the problem, dude. He's gonna have to sit on your lap. Oh, is that true? Yeah,
to the math. I like this. I should. Look at to the math. Yeah, we just started this. Oh, I
That's so fucking funny
This place is a shit. These are the people that fucking gave you a job. Yes, this place is a shit hole
There's only three mics. It is surprising to me that they they only had two chairs
Yeah, which this is this is the very beginning of the show. Stuttering, John, what's up buddy?
We don't have a chair for you
because we're just building this thing.
So they don't have a chair or a mic
because they're just building this thing.
These are all things you could just order all at once.
They also build it.
100% fucking know that there's gonna be four of them
in the studio today.
And this is great because they're keeping Jackie waiting.
Yeah. and Jackie
legitimately gets pissed off about it. This is him finally just walking in and and just saying fuck
I'm not gonna wait for someone to have it come on after an hour after they put on a show already. Yeah, here's this
Jackie
Cockshock security why you here you can't stand there Jackie can't be asked
Ask Mike ask Mike. I said go get Jackie and they said they lay three microphones
So you got to sit in the Robin Robin
They only have three microphones
They only have three microphones. No, I'm so no fuck.
Jack.
What is this, all?
Oh, it's ridiculous.
He's always ever since Beck to Stern, when he was even on Stern.
He's always been the guy that gets like, no, he gets less respect than Roddy Danger
for you.
Right.
According to him, he's always like demanding people respect him.
Right.
Right.
What have you ever done, Derrick?
He doesn't command any respect.
Well, the funny thing about that is,
OP is well known, this is well documented,
that he would keep people waiting
to come on the show, waiting in the green room
as a power move.
They'd have a really good comedian
ready to come in and Anthony and Jim would be like,
oh, it's well to have a member,
just have, we're just shooting the shit,
get this guy in here,
and OP would make him wait an hour,
because it was a fucking power move.
It was the only control OP had over the show. He wasn't funny. He wasn't interesting
Yeah, he couldn't see the conversation because the comedians were all took it over the only thing he could do was keep people waiting and
Again, what end though?
Well right to what I never would hate him. It makes the show worse. Everyone hates his guts to that out
Yeah, so that was his power move
So now he's doing it again. Yeah, now that he has a podcast But it doesn't work anymore because it's just a shitty podcast or let's assume so Jackie just like listen man
I'm just gonna go home. Can I just come on the fucking show?
It's not like he has the power anymore to keep people waiting and this is legitimately Jackie pissed off
Mike's gonna meet you guys in the lobby of three o'clock. Yeah, so I'm there 10 to three waiting waiting waiting waiting
Nalabia three o'clock. Yeah, so I'm there 10 to three waiting waiting waiting
Three o'clock. I'll be down in five minutes and now it's three fucking 30
I mean you could hear it in his voice. Jackie's not doing a bit right there
You told me to get here three. I got here early and I fucking sat down there like an asshole
When you get this I get a stuttery Johnny's and nobody bring me up. What's going on?
What the most interesting part of this to me is that Carl blows this up completely, but he's
like, why are you doing this?
Carl doesn't understand why OPs even doing it.
And he's like, why are you doing this to him?
Both John and Carl were saying, bring Jackie in.
Right. Right.
No, no, no, no.
Right.
No, I want to talk to you, John.
I want to find out about your book.
I want to talk about the Trump calling.
Right. No, no.
And then like, OP's embarrassed that there's only three mics.
He's clearly embarrassed by it.
Yes.
And Carl's like, he knows all about it.
And so the mic was just like, why does Carl blow up OP's spot?
Or is like, do they not have,
and this is just like, Carl must be just like,
he's added with fucking OP's bullsh**.
Carl has integrity.
Right.
He, while he does laugh at OP's stupid jokes
and he does continue to be the yes man
that OP needs around him,
he also is a legit talent.
Carl reminds us of a funny guy.
You don't hear it in these two shows,
he doesn't talk at all.
Right.
But he doesn't put up with that kind of bullshit
and he does speak his own mind, which is nice.
Anytime we've done these segments,
you can tell that Carl is the only shining lawyer.
Oh, he'll get sick, he'll get sick of this soon.
Yeah.
Well, there's gonna be a death fool
for when Carl just fucking leaves the show
and now Hopi's going, everybody fucking leaves me, man. Everyone's, can a death fool for when Carl just fucking leaves the show and now all he's going
Everybody fucking leaves me man. Can we talk about the opi conspiracy shit real quick?
Okay, this is a very important thing for me. So you guys got to bear with me for a second. I have I have a package Yeah, wait, okay. I have a package here
Stuttering John very early on in the conversation talks to opi about
When it was just you and Jim Norton,
after Anthony was fired from Sirius,
the show for two years was OP and Jimmy,
and OP loves when someone has his side.
He gets so excited.
You were talking to Jim and Jim wouldn't give you anything.
Nothing.
You know, in a way.
Thank you for noticing this,
because the whole radio guy,
you've done this a long time.
He purposely made sure he would laugh or go with anything I was doing and I'm like what the fuck are you doing here, man?
Yeah, and I felt but then he had a plan. He had a plan man, which was what oh to get his own show
To take over the show
So Opie says Jim was sabotaging our show
I So OP says Jim was sabotaging our show.
I was on there and he was just tuned out
because his old goal was in a couple of years,
he would just take over the show.
All right, that's the conspiracy that he set up.
Right.
A couple more clips from OP here.
This is just after he says that he finds a way
to compliment himself by talking through Carl.
So this is OP, patting himself on the back.
But thank you for noticing that
because Carl's like, man, you seem like you're back
to your old self again.
I'm like, I am because we're doing stuff.
We're enjoying it.
We're laughing.
We have chemistry.
You know, I help Carl along.
He's helping me along.
Yeah, even Carl said that,
yeah, pretty funny.
Right, go, remember, you said that I was funny?
Remember that?
I apologize.
So after that, he then talks about how he knew
he was saying funny things,
and Jim Norton was giving him nothing.
Again, remember, this is on purpose
in order for Jim to take over the show.
But Jimmy would sit there stone face,
and I remember thinking to myself,
wow, I didn't know we were doing this, but this this is good. I remember when you do a radio show you know when something's funny
You know like that's funny and I would think to myself motherfucker. I know what I just say was funny
You're purposely not giving me shit
Is there any evidence that always ever said anything that's funny? I've never heard it
What is he talking about?
So I have Mike Jobs.
Oh, you're gonna have to middle the pack.
Sorry, sorry.
This is a very important pack.
Go, go, go.
This is gonna be mind blowing to people.
Because I do the research that no one else
is doing out there.
Opie goes on his show, calls Jim Norton a pussy.
Do you remember that?
He goes, Jim Norton's a pussy.
He should have left the show.
He didn't want to be in a show with me sabotaged my show.
He ended up taking my job in the morning slot.
This is Jim Norton.
This guy's a goofball.
He's not conspiring to take over Opie's job.
So Jim Norton on October 10th was on the Michael Marishel.
Oh yeah.
And it dresses all of of us which is amazing
this is jim addressing the fact that opi calumna pussy
as far as that the thing with opi we have no relation to fact
somebody uh... you know to address his opi called me a post that you call me a
pussy like
because i stayed with him instead of going with antony
uh... when the reality was from opian aptony when aptony got fired
i was hoping that he would come back to the show
i was hoping he would come back on
but you know you're right i just didn't enjoy working with him uh... he's not
lying about that
so jim says
look at i said on the show that was my job
and it would be great if they could come back remember anything was fired
over tweets
he didn't do anything as serious he didn't do it in the air on serious he didn't
film anyone taking to shitton't do anything on the air on serious he didn't film anyone taking a shit and then we're taking a shit the bathroom
it serious he just tweeted things that seriously suddenly caught a loose so Jim
says i don't know hope the moon get the band back together and then he addresses
this whole plotting against opi but opi actually a victim like everyone was out
plotting together he actually said Jimmy wouldn't give me anything in studio
like laugh-wise.
Like hey, stoop it. If you joke for funny, I would have laughed.
Like this idiot acts like I was sitting there plotting against him.
I think that's just not how my mind works.
Yeah, that's a weird conspiracy to have.
That Jimmy hadn't his mind.
I'm going to make Opie look terrible.
And then in two years time, in two years and three months,
I'll be able to take over the show.
Yeah. So Jimmy explains the real reason be able to take over the show.
So Jim explains the real reason why he took over the morning show.
Like he thinks that me and Sam plotted to take his show.
Instead of realizing he sat out almost the entire month of August because he thinks he's
Howard and it's like, hey, you just couldn't get away with that.
When they were negotiating that final deal, instead of sitting on your ass on the beach,
had you been in doing radio shows?
Me and Sam would not have been doing radio shows
and you'd still have your morning show
and Sam and I would have went 10 to one.
He's just delusional and that's what makes him
so difficult to be around.
Ha ha ha.
Amazing.
So I didn't listen to serious X-Evath this time
after Anthony Laptop, that I listened for a week or two
and I couldn't take that anymore
because it was so unlistenable, OP with just Jim. So I didn't know this
whole background but apparently Opie decided to take all of August off right
before his contract was up and then he came back and they go, you can have
afternoons, we'll put you on three to six. Opie said, well these guys took my job
and what the fuck's like, no, no one's listening to you on the radio.
Right. No one likes you.
You're curating us, it's nowhere.
And you took all of August off.
No one's seen you.
When you were showing your boss that you were a valued asset.
Right.
You went on vacations.
Exactly.
You made yourself look useless.
And nobody missed you.
And no one missed him.
In fact, they were probably in the opposite feedback.
Like, oh, you know, Sam Roberts with Jim Norton is pretty good.
This is actually better than I would.
Hey, people who actually like these two guys together,
let's get rid of this fucking dud.
That wants to take a month off.
Right.
Jimmy goes on to explain Opie's insecurity,
and this is so great.
I love that Jim breaks this down.
But the insecure version of him,
when he watches everybody in the room
being funny and he doesn't feel like he fits in. He doesn't feel like he belongs there.
And he can deny that. But I mean, I've been around funny people my whole career. When
he's insecure, he's awful because he turns into a baby and he turns resentful of people
who are being funny around him. And comics picked it up.
This is why OP doesn't have any comedic friends anymore except for Kyle Rues.
I'm not including Shrad.
I'm not including.
And Lee and my cluedy those two.
Those two are not comedians in my book.
And then just the last clip I want to play from Jim Norton and Michael Mare and I'll let
you guys get back into the show.
I apologize.
But this is just this summary of Opie is what I've been saying all along.
I call this one Jim Norton nails it.
If he just relaxed and enjoyed it, you know, he would have been much more fun to be around.
I'm sure he has this complaint about me.
I can only say that me and Anthony have remained very close.
You know, I mean, it's like he's just unable to to see it and I don't care if he ever sees it.
Like I have no interest in helping him see it.
Let him say what he wants and feel how he wants it to, it's irrelevant to me.
So this is what Jimmy's saying.
Alright, Opie, you're not a funny guy.
But you're the Opie from Opie and Anthony that is an amazing show that everybody loves. You got
Jimmy, got Anthony, Voss is coming in, all these different people. And it's a really funny show.
Just sit back and enjoy that you're part of this. You don't have to be the guy who gets off with
the great jokes. I equate this to, what if Ringo Star had said, I'm not going to get enough credit
for the songwriting. That's because you're not the songwriter asshole. John and Paula writing the songs. You're walking to be in the spent. You're not even a good drummer.
You're the fucking Beatles and you're not even a good drummer. That's what Opie should have
been the wringled star of Opie and Anthony. Like dude, you're famous for no fucking reason,
except for you surrounded us out with people who are very, very talented. Yeah.
You can, he's grabbing me by the lapbbles of the tuxedo. I'm wearing everyone
Fine, fine, he really I don't know I warned you I had a package
I don't have a clip of this. I don't know if you guys have a clip of it
but he really did reveal it at one point that
When they when Anthony and him were getting along the most was when both their relationships were falling apart
and they were both miserable,
they'd hang out at the studio and get bombed or whatever
and hang out and that's when the show was clicking the most
because they were kind of on the same wavelength.
And they were at $2,000.
Yeah, right.
When Anthony got fired, the smartest thing
this idiot could have done was would have been to just
fucking walk out with him and they could have taken the show anywhere else, but they no longer got along.
Right.
So he didn't do that.
He's like, oh, I'm going, I will get back because he's fucking an arrogant.
I finally lost this dead weight of Anthony, the talented one.
Right.
That's what I'm bigger and bigger.
He's been holding me back.
Well, that's what he thought.
And then he complains that Jim Norton didn't leave, which is insane. Yeah. This is all Jim's fault because he
should have left when Anthony got fired. Jim Norton had a full-time job at serious extent,
those paying him good money. Why would he leave that? He doesn't make any sense. Anyway. So Joe,
what do you got? Opie said at one point that he wasn't really aware of Jimmy's show or whatever.
My five is a little on that.
Okay.
When I left serious, the government of my VIP account, so I hear the show isn't doing that great,
but I don't listen or you didn't know about it.
So yeah, he doesn't listen because he doesn't have a VIP account.
And he would listen.
He would listen.
He would listen to Jimmy show.
Twenty bucks a VIP account. Anyway, he would listen. He would listen. He would listen to a show. 20 bucks a month there.
Yeah, I can't afford 20 bucks a month.
They're not giving it to me for free.
So I'm not listening.
Yeah, right.
That's just my clip, I'm sorry, my clips are divided
into pathetic and sad and bombing.
Okay.
I have to kind of jump around a little bit,
but I have another one that highlights Obie's insecurity.
My four called insecure OB it's quick
You have to listen to this, okay, too
When I can't wait to hear this podcast
So he's gonna go listen to his own podcast in his car that's and that's wait if when you're really talented
Do you think Howard goes back and listens to the replay of his own show? No.
He definitely does not. If he did, he would fix some shit.
That's what someone like me. I'm not a comedian. I don't have like any confidence on the
mic. I'm gonna go back and listen to this.
You're the goat!
I'm gonna be like, was I actually any good on this? Should I stop doing it all together?
And I'll listen to this again.
And that's what Opie's doing.
Get ready to be super insecure.
I'm pretty sure that was Carl who's had that.
Two, one, fuck.
I can't wait to hear this podcast again.
Oh, that's Carl.
That's Carl.
So Carl is going to be in secure one.
OK.
Swig and a miss.
I don't know.
I did say I was no good at this. You did. That was
perfect. You backed that up very well. So my clip 11 is all the
name dropping get get ad rock ready. Okay, because this is a
montage of the name dropping. Guy Fieri, have an
a bit of a carbon burn some Billy West Eugene levy and his
kid with Aaron Dennis Blair and Max Alexander and Mike
Saconia and Ralphie May I stutter on ours dark off uncle deal with Godfried Garrett Morris Lisa and Benelli
Just like half those people I've never even fucking heard of Jackie was throwing out names
Yeah, all the comedies were there and they says like eight people I've never heard of my life my clip one
I called this pathetic name dropping. I've known him for 40 years back when I used to I used to run a comedy show
Wednesday nights at the bitter end and it was and Simone would come with any young man's grandson
and the the MC from Dangerfields and Bob somebody the gay guy that used to book it and then
was coming in there and we just left our ass off. Great story. Oh shit. A bunch of nobody's I don't remember were there. Any young men's cousin
and Eugene left his son. Who the fuck are you hanging out with? Some gay guy that blew me?
So I mean what's the interesting part? I don't understand what that story was. At the very end of the show, at the very end of part two,
Jackie starts rambling and Jackie's an older guy.
I'm not an ageist, but when you get older,
you're some of the synapses connecting in your brain.
He makes zero sets out of those.
It's funny because he used to break my balls
that I had all these shacks, and I could never fight back,
because the truth is, where I live,
this house is a real small,
because it's a small little area.
And I don't even wanna talk about it now,
but there's bad enough people come looking for you.
There's no reason to pinpoint it,
so I wouldn't defend and explain my reasoning
for why I was there,
but the reason we were there led to me being where I am.
So whatever the plot was worked.
So it's, no idea what I said.
Even the whole thing is like, I have no idea.
I flipped that too, but then I tacked on
the very next part of OP's reaction was,
we'll end on that turn.
That was the fucking worst.
The reason we were there led to me being where I am,
so that whatever the plot was worked.
So that's how we end today, the big fat turn.
Yeah, exactly.
There wasn't nowhere.
And listen, that's a long time to be podcasting.
I get it. You get to a point where you get to get to lyrics. What are we talking about anymore?
And hope we can't run the show well
So it's just these guys rambling out and on with whatever stories they're telling. Yeah, I'll just like finish out
I jake eclipse if there's one more where I call the old man can't internet and in those days
I was just looking at the HTML and mimicking it and then putting it up and hoping it would come up.
And this guy helped me and he said,
will you put a little, whatever you call it on the front page of your website?
And I said, no problem because I know how to do that. But I thought it was a little ed, but it was a gif.
And I don't even know if I knew what a gif was at the time.
Okay, great story.
Long way around to fucking nowhere with this guy.
Every time he starts telling a story,
I don't Carl is not a fan of this.
Joe and I do it a lot where you pull the taffy of a story and you're always
like, just get to the fucking punchline. Don't bore us, get to the chorus.
Exactly.
You're pulling the taffy of a fucking, you know, a story.
Banana flavored taffy that nobody wants.
Well, the whole problem with the show format is that Opie thinks this mundane conversation is a show because
if you have people on the show that the fans should be interested in, then anything they
say is interesting to those people.
It's just not the case.
You have to continue to prove yourself all the time.
If you're going to be a guest on the show, I'll give Howard Stern credit.
Steve Martin the same way. These are people who every time they went on a talk show,
they brought something.
They didn't phone in, ever.
They said, okay, I'm gonna be on a show
while Howard hasn't in like 10 years.
But before that, he would bring less beans out
with something to have a whole bit.
Steve Martin always has something going on.
Don't just go there and just have a mundane conversation.
That's not a show.
I know you're a celebrity, but that's not a show.
Jackie the joke, man, you're not relevant.
Not a celebrity.
You guys keep using this word celebrity
that means celebrated.
These are just personalities.
It's just personalities.
That's a really good one.
Not good personalities.
And I got to tell you that with Stuttering John,
I've listened to his podcast, obviously.
I've heard him on Anthony Kumia's show.
He's a one-trick pony.
He's got nothing else.
I was so angry that I had to listen to the fucking prank
for the whole story.
Right, the Trump story again.
The Trump story again.
Let me play a clip that I have.
No.
I know, I know.
It's just so fucking annoying.
So he tells the story again.
And the big joke is that he was trying to have
a Gangey Grillo, which, oh Casey, Casey, he was trying to have, well, something fucking
nobody from Howard Stern, he was trying to have Casey call into the show and Casey couldn't.
So instead he talked to Trump and let's know hard. It is for him to get this joke out. KC's lady was busy.
So it's more unbelievable.
I forgot to get a trouble getting in touch with Trump is that KC was too busy.
Right.
He had something to do.
What?
Fucking mouse.
No, he didn't even structure that story correctly.
He like said the punchline that he came back to the set up,
but it's like, John, you're not an interesting guest.
You're terrible.
It didn't make any sense to me either though,
because he reveals that he was riding around in his car
when he finally got like Kushner and Trump on the phone.
Yes.
So it's not like he was recording a podcast
to drive him down the street.
He had a call his buddy and three-way him in
so that that person could record the call.
That's why it sounds like such garbage.
But like, what is he doing?
Just riding around, like just hitting numbers on his phone,
hoping that something interesting happens?
Well, this is the best part is,
and I give Opie a little bit of credit here
because I've documented this call pretty well.
It's a nothing.
It sucks.
It's a nothing burger.
He calls up Trump, and pretends to be a senator
and talk about things that actually a senator
would talk to Trump about.
It's so boring.
Yeah.
So Opie, thankfully, says this.
It was unbelievable.
And then at the end, I just said,
and a bubbly deal, I just like put that in but just like him right but that was it
Why didn't you ask him about I'm yeah, I mean it was amazing so trust me
I doubt you forget doing this
But why didn't you ask like about Stormy Daniels or something? Yeah, you know, I should because he yeah
So old me says yeah, it's great. You talked to the president. Why didn't you make it funny? Yeah, I think don't shit your luck, no shit, no shit, no shit, you're luck, no fucking shit, you're luck.
You have trouble at the phone, say something funny.
Well, because, okay, so he says he's doing stand-up gigs, right?
For some how he is...
Sending John the same amount of, yeah. stand-up gigs, right? For somehow he is writing Jackie's co-tales or something. It seems
like they're packaged dealing each other because John says, I go there and Jackie's there. And. All right. Yoko Tarko.
Um, you know, Masi Tark, that's my name for her,
because she ruined the show.
Really?
Uh, so you came up with a name for somebody
who ruins a podcast.
Why don't you just call her the stuttering John of podcast?
I can't.
I can't.
I have to tell you, I got your way out of context here.
I don't think anyone knows what just happened here.
He's about Marcy Turg. Yeah. Who took over and ruined the Howard search show, right? And he calls her Yoko turco, right?
It's hilarious
It's fucking ridiculous.
Who's listening to that? Do you have any fucking clue what the fuck would just happen?
You listen to this show you would. It's not a funny joke. It's not a funny joke.
You had as much context. You had as much contact listening to that right now
as you had when he said it original.
That's true.
So this thing that I do when I have a number,
is here's a setup that tells me I need to explain
what's about to happen.
So he'll have some fucking clue
what they're hearing.
He's like, yeah, play track four.
Done, Yoko, Tercoh, what did he do?
Okay.
Listen, nobody needs explanation that saying Yoko something is that person is bad at some fair or ruined
Ruins ruin something the Yoko reference it's a terrible fucking joke
Fair enough then eight is his other awesome one the whole thing grew
grew like a mushroom. I mean, it was, nobody knew anything.
I told Stone.
Yeah.
They're juggling at his own joke.
A Toadstool?
Why?
Is that like, John's attempted like free association?
Oh, it blew up like a mushroom.
A mushroom, and John's like mushroom.
What do I got?
What do I got?
Pizza, psychedelics.
What's growing in my underwear?
Like, well, how does he come up with fucking,
toad stool, and then, and Jackie's just like, yeah.
And John's like, what the fuck, dude?
There's a lot of that going on.
There's a lot of them laughing at each other
to try to make it seem good.
Opie does this thing, where he tells the same joke twice.
He explains that the people who are on this podcast
were famous 20 years ago.
Okay, so he throws out this, if this were 1998,
this would be great.
He does this joke twice.
Don't get Jackie yet.
We're talking to Stutter John.
Let Jackie fucking wait.
Did you forget that this is in 1998? He can wait
Me you and Jackie if this was 1998 this would be an amazing lineup
Here's a tip. Oh, we're gonna do the same joke twice make it 97 the second time
Yeah, so that I don't associate that my heaven on listening to the show go. Oh a metal dough I'll be told the same joke twice. You made it too easy for me
You're making my job easy at this point. Also, they were never they were big in 98
I got you're like these are not celebrities
Southern John people knew about him in 98. They still didn't give a fuck. It's not like it was a big deal
You were a phone screener so I was trying to point out how unfunny Jan is but number my number nine is how unfunny fucking opias, too
You were bullied by chicks. Yes
Moment
You're like tavernos girlfriend
You're a hashtag me too.
Who's my hashtag? Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, John is just like desperate to get back to himself. Yes, Carl and I'll be in the lab. We're laughing at shit that's not funny.
And John's just like,
can we talk about me now?
Fucking dickhead.
All right, I have an example on here.
They decide to go on this thing
where they just start telling topical jokes.
So first off,
starting John says the most doucheous thing
you could possibly say,
sorry, how many chicks he's sleeping with.
Yeah.
Which, you know, John is in his 50s.
Like, you're still bragging about sleeping with girls.
Yeah, it's gross.
It's so gross.
And then, Opie and Carl start riffing on just some of this
topical is automatically funny.
I don't think so, but...
At least 200 since the divorce divorce I just went crazy.
Oh crazy like two or three a week.
I was just on a roll.
Were you pulling a cab and all or was it?
No, we're in the devil's triangle.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I bring pills.
I bring pills I
Bring pills I was performing Cosby
Cosby I'm a Cosby I'm up. How many did you write in your calendar?
Oh my god those jokes are like hurricane Michael
What the fuck was that they just said things that are in the news?
Wasn't that your calendar? Ah!
The fuck? It's the hurricane Michael of podcasts.
It's definitely.
Yeah, that was bad.
I mean, starting John Bore's people to death,
I got a couple of that.
Number five is Opie checks out.
Oh, okay, I think I have this one too.
You know, they came with us. We
know with the each of the e contracts. Are you with me? Yeah, I'm sorry. Yeah. There's
there handing me a note to me. I would whatever. There's stuff going on behind the scenes.
I was making sure I was cool. All right. Because I was panicking now. We're not getting
this recorded right. Oh, I'll continue. Sorry. So no, no, what the fuck? I got to make sure you're paying attention
to this super boring story that I'm going to start telling for the fourth time. Right.
What a fucking dick. Like, like he, he actually, he's never been in a radio studio. Like,
there's not somebody like, there's shit going on. We're trying to continue a show. You know,
shit might be going wrong. He needs to get a note. He needs to fill the time for him. Instead of calling, are you listening to me?
You're a hundred.
You hear what I fucking said?
You are a hundred percent correct.
What a dick.
That's how radio shows go. There's a lot of things you're showing on.
Someone's giving you a note.
You're checking.
You're having a quick side conversation.
And fucking John looks at all of me and goes, dude, do you paint attention here now?
I am saying, I am giving you gold.
Right now I'm going the show you're not
listening that's crazy how dare you big time me yeah right no I'm not paying attention because this
is fucking boring and there's there's another part my six is called true professionals I mentioned
how toxic it was I think the one thing and Jackie maybe I'm wrong here but you know you know
and speaking for you oh he can't hear me. I don't know
What's happening? Where does that?
What's going on? Where do Carl go?
Jackie? There's one note. Oh, Carl's doing a phone call and Jackie's in here now. So Jackie, he's like you
Half the studio was walked off the show at this time. Can we talk about what the setup was and it this shit out?
Yeah, Joey. That's your holy job is out of the show.
Let's talk about the setup of the show. They get there and it's Carl and OP and
Southern John shows up and they don't have a chair for you, but they do have a third
mic. So now there's this three microphones, two chairs, Jackie shows up. So now there's
three microphones, two chairs, four guys. So Carl eventually gets up and goes,
dude, take my mic, I'm gonna leave.
Now Carl is in a totally different place in the building
and he's called into the show in order to be on the show,
but the engineer didn't pat up his microphone.
So you can hear him talking.
And then Jackie's actually not with them.
So they can't see each other.
For some reason, Jackie's in some other area. So they can't see each other. For some reason, Jekis and some other,
actually, the Robin booth.
They got out of the Robin booth.
So nobody's looking at each other.
No one knows what's going on.
The equipment's malfunctioning.
It was unbelievable.
It's the legitimate podcast.
And yes, these three guys would have you believe
that they are a list celebrities
that have seen it all and done it all.
So I only have a couple of clips left.
I put together a little compilation of these three guys letting you know how fucking big they are.
So that's my number 12.
Alright.
Because everybody's acting a big shot of you here.
So I mean, me, you and Jackie if this was 1998
This would be an amazing lineup. I know what I just say I do have a book coming up
I feel like he is coming on my show a lot, you know, Jay Leno has always told me the whole time that I was there
Yeah, I get interviewed and I was friends around
Yeah, I put them on the stage with me in Pittsburgh and and already was doing my radio show at series series it yet here and I passed on I bought a house in Calabats
I'm Mark Lee you got some luck you know with jealous back and that's when you
were truly a star man
I'm flying to LA I write my jokes in the town car on the way there. I do the pairs
of J and it kills and then after the segment that produced for it, it had right or off
of your job. I only can't because I had to do a book signing Thursday. I kept on turning
down the tonight show. He said, line in Las Vegas Las Vegas. That huge party up there. I have two four sweet John
How is like to meet the announcer of the tonight show? The show is so great. Can you guys are so great? Oh
Shit, that's good. That's a lot of fucking big timing
Unfortunately, Spotify is gonna take off my fucking feet now
because we just used copyright.
It got me written music for it.
I thought this podcast was so fucking small
that we could do whatever we want.
That's probably true.
That's probably true.
Even though these guys are big deals and big celebrities,
they still fish for compliments.
This is John just needs a compliment.
He's talking about what a great job he did
when he was on OP show a while back.
Yeah, it was all good.
You were very complimentary and you said,
I could do another four hours with you.
That's the first thing you said to me.
Oh, yeah, no, it was great.
I mean, it was awesome.
I was saying, oh, I should wouldn't,
Eugene Levy and his kid would ever remember.
Right, right.
Yeah, so. Eugene Levy and his kid would ever remember right right? Yeah
Can you imagine he's odd the show with open is going remember when I was at your show a few years ago Eugene Levy was there I would make it this joke
No, the fuck does that no, I don't remember you were there John because Eugene because Eugene Levy's kid was there. Right. And he was more important than you.
All right.
I want to play, this is another thing
that something John talks about all the time.
He's all but her about how Howard Stern treated him.
Yeah.
And he brings up this bit that Howard Stern did on the air,
where Howard says, when John's wife was pregnant,
he says, you're wife should have an abortion,
which is a joke on the radio, right?
This is, John, still bringing that up, it still pains him.
Like, he told me on the air to abort my kid,
and my wife was pregnant because I'm not fit to be a father. Fog. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Yeah, a lot of it is about the way they got treated.
It's turned Jackie and John are always bitching about how they didn't get paid enough.
It comes out over and over and my three I called money grubbing.
They have a little bit where they reminisce about their Christmas and bonus.
Oh, yeah, this is great.
You gave me a canister with fucking popcorn in it.
But Christmas, and he goes,
ah, what, that was Alice?
And I go, I stuck my arm in there looking for a check.
Yeah, you're fucking.
They just fucking test.
They're worth all this money.
Like, what they're doing,
like, deserves to be rewarded.
I will tell you that I do have a specific stance on this.
If you feel like you should make more money,
prove it and go make more money.
Right.
That's how the world works.
That's how the economy works.
So when Howard doesn't pay these people a lot of money
and says, well, if you can go make more money,
then go do it.
Just go start your show.
Check he goes, okay, guess what?
He's never made as much money.
Exactly. And he did what he was at Howard search show
So he's lost a shit to the money that leave you that show so how it was right right it didn't deserve that right
Stay where you are these guys have absolutely John fucking just like oh I started as an intern there when I was 22
Right because Mitch Faitel like got him the job there. Yes. This is somebody who never had to work a fucking day in his life
and got fucking skated by because he stutters
and he just fell into this fucking job.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, you forget that he was,
he was getting a's in college.
He went a bit of slew, he went, shit.
What was it to be already, uncle, uncle, uncle?
So play my, play my, play my my 10 that's my last one and
how about no after I got a lot to say I got a lot to say
when you left towered how much money were you making a year when I uh 85
thousand a year I mean it was in 85 thousand is a nice life but I mean that's
consider it no get back I'm gonna taxes are gonna be taking
that but no taxes are gonna fuck you.
First of all, let's just,
if with inflation right now,
just for everybody who's listening right now,
if you don't know.
If you don't know.
This is for what you thought.
Yeah, yeah.
So 85,000 back then would be the equivalent
of 131, six figures.
You would have been making up.
You would have been making up.
Six figure salary.
What are you an economist?
I looked it up. I put it in a calculator,
but I looked it up, but what people may not know.
If you work in radio or TV or anything,
these are low paying jobs, mostly because everybody wants
to do it, and so it's a saturated market.
And if you don't like the money you leave,
and there's a college kid who will slip right in and do the job that you're doing.
Tell us why in the mayor money works exactly.
The you the job that John was doing on the Howard Stern show would have been the equivalent.
If you were doing it in a smaller market 30,000.
Yeah.
Now there's no joke a million people who would take that job in a heartbeat.
Right, exactly.
And he was making six figures,
and it wasn't fucking good enough for him.
However, New York City six figures.
Yeah, which means his rent was 60,000 a year.
So, 80% is not positive in New York City.
I know, I hear what you're saying.
I never begrudged him for leaving though,
because if, yeah, you're gonna be the,
A, I don't, Jay Leno is a fucking moron
for ever picking him up as the announcer
for the deny show.
That is absolutely ridiculous.
I don't blame him for leaving.
It's an incredible fucking opportunity for him.
I didn't blame him for leaving.
But to be bitching about the amount of money
that you were making then, that guy,
all you did was read other people's jokes to celebrities
and you
think you should be making what?
Half a mill?
You're not the phone screener, are you sad?
What was he doing?
People doing that job for nothing.
Right.
Yeah, people do that.
Wolfie is doing that now.
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't
know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know,
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't
know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't
know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't
know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't
know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't
know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't credit to do that. You were making 85 grand. Right. Yeah. I'm with you on that. Let's talk about
OP for a second. We're not talking about OP. We're talking about stillerian John and Jackie too much.
OP does this thing and I pointed this out before. He's terrible at a political conversation. He
should just avoid it. Because no, anything about politics. And this is what I call OP on politics.
Well, that's, that's where I'm definitely different than your politics.
I don't believe in either side.
I think they're all playing games and they're all full of shit.
Well, yeah, full of shit.
Dynamite drop in money at broadcast school is really paid off.
So, opi has an amazing point of view that politicians are all assholes right or alive.
Okay. Good one.
I'll be.
Yeah, exactly.
You got to listen to the amazing tank who would possibly say that.
And then in part two, he brings up politics again, but this time he is driving this conversation
into the ground.
Okay.
You bring up something there though.
There was a time where if your friend didn't line up with you politically, you still got
a war with each other.
Of course.
That's not the case anymore.
It's like it's in all our war.
It is.
The country is completely split into two.
He had supposedly three comedians on the show with him.
And he starts talking about how, yeah, we were divided as a country.
What did this supposed to do with that?
Maybe that's why Jim Norton wasn't laughing at your jokes.
There's nothing you could do with that,
I hope you've just, you've ended the conversation.
I really just go, yeah, it sucks.
Yeah.
Anyway, never tell you about the time that Hot Word
got me a Christmas gift, it's like,
fuck, I hope you, what are we gonna,
that has no one can relate to this conversation,
it's no where.
And it's not even
Accuracy. It's not like people that have different points of views can't be in the same room together
It's not it's not accurate. I know this whole thing Joe is a cucked out lib tart snowflake
I'm in all right republicans and we still get along. I didn't know that about you too
That's what everybody says right that we're all right on this show. I think so.
I think that's people's take out it.
This is Stuttering John.
Again, cannot wait to talk about his amazing achievement
of talking to the president.
I guess if you guys...
Did you hear about that, Opie?
What?
I get them when I prank the president.
Oh no, I want to talk to you about that.
Did you hear about that?
You won't shut the fuck up about it. You heard what I said? Did you hear that? You hear what I said to talk about that. Did you hear about that? You won't shut the fuck up about it
I
Was gonna come in to read Wikipedia
It's definitely on the stuttering John wick of it's a thing on there. It's like a whole page about how he break the president
Let me give Southern Johnson advice. I know he's listening John
I was once on the Anthony Kumia show, but I don't talk about it.
I'm not bringing it up every episode as if it's a big deal.
It's not a big deal. Just move on. You talked to the president.
Whatever.
I've probably put it in the intro of the show.
What are these podcasts? They do a show about shows.
It's hilarious. The show is hilarious.
All right. So maybe they could be talked about a few times.
Whatever. I don't bring it up. It's not the show is hilarious. Alright so maybe could we talk to him on a few times whatever I don't break it up
That's not a big deal. John should play the prank call at the beginning of every episode of his podcast
He might you should know a fucking tree fellow that was would anyone know what John's doing on his podcast. I don't
Should play him saying Bob O'Booie to the president at the beginning of the show fucking lame
He doesn't even pronounce it beginning. Oh, he's so fucking lame. He doesn't even pronounce it. But boo, boo, do.
All right, this is them talking to Jackie and Opie is shocked that Howard
wouldn't have Jackie back as a guest for the fans.
I mean, but the fans would love to hear what you guys are up to and it would be
amazing radio.
It's so weird to me that he just doesn't want to go down that fucking road.
All right.
How many times has Jackie been a guest at Howard
since he left the show?
Several.
A dozen?
I don't even know.
He's been out the show many, many, many times.
And Howard threw him with the world's biggest bone
and let him have a radio show on Howard's one.
Yeah, he did.
And Joe Cutt, get it?
Yeah, Joe Cutt.
I got it.
That's another thing I learned reading Wikipedia
that Howard took care of him when he really didn't have to.
And he did.
He did have him on the air every once in a while.
This was the Arty Lang era.
When Howard was doing amazingly well on trust-yield,
he went to satellite, brought over millions of subscribers,
Arty Lang was killing it
Nobody was pining for Jackie the joke man at that point do you remember that?
No, I mean you guys don't have words fans. Yeah, at that point I didn't have a conversation with anyone
It was like they had to read Jackie back. I was like it's so much better now
And meanwhile you're exactly right how it's like he would have had a mind as a guest. Hey Jack
What's going on? What do you do? It was a fucking pity play for sure. It would have been amazing radio. I want to dissect Opie on this little bit
He gets Opie does this thing resudders a lot and he's not sure what to do with himself and I have an analysis of this but
Listen to this. He says I got to say this and then he says nothing. I got to I got to say this about I
I don't want to but I I'll say this so I mean, but if you're hanging out with him having dinner
That's the real guy don't you think and then when the mics are on he's trying to perform and put a show on for people
What was that he goes I got to say this I got it. I don't know if I you know, you know, and what was that?
He goes, I gotta say this.
I got it.
I don't know if I want to say this.
No, I gotta say this.
When Howard would hang out with you and, you know,
just go to dinner and stuff, that was the real Howard, right?
And I was thinking about this, what is OP?
What was he afraid to say?
What was he trying to say?
He was thinking that Southern John was gonna say,
the Howard Stern that I went to dinner with
was the real Howard Stern.
The guy in the radio was playing a character.
And John said the opposite of that.
John said, no, no, no, the guy that I went to dinner with
was acting nice to me because he's a pussy.
The real Howard Stern was the guy in the radio
telling my wife to get in the portion.
Yeah.
So, Obi, I think what he was gonna say was that I used to play a character on the radio.
I pretended to be someone I'm not, because I wanted to be interesting and compelling,
and I was Opie to destroy her, and that's not really who I am.
And they set themselves, because the whole point of this talk radio thing is that you
have to be real, or else who gives a shit, if you're playing a character, if you're just
acting, why am I at listening to your show
I think that's where Opie wasn't his head when he said I gotta say that like I
Well, I I I can't say this but I gotta say it and then he doesn't say anything
I think that's where he was going
Yeah, that's quite possibly who knows what do I know?
Let's talk about Opie being terrible at
the
commercial reads oh
God Opie being terrible at the commercial reads.
Oh God.
This is him talking about this thing called Talkspace,
which is a ridiculous fucking product.
You have a psychologist or a psychiatrist
that you can text with, a virtual psychologist
or shrink or something.
But listen to how Opie reads this.
Everything's at a 10.
This is not a conversational
read at any single way. Can't imagine fitting anything else into your life well. With talk space,
therapy is as easy as sending your therapist a message. Get something off your chest whenever you
need to. Talk about everyday challenges at work or at home. Just chat about life. There are no
extra commutes, no leaving the office and no judgments
she's a scry it says he having a allergic reaction and his tongue is swelling it sounds like he went to the
boss fucking school of announce they're they they can't hurt her it's crazy that he can't just
really a normal human being he's been a professional broadcast over 25 years. He gets some copy in front of him and he goes, well, did you want to do the most amazing
thing that's ever been invented? It's talk space. I can't believe you're not using talk space
right now. Have you used to get up texting right now as I'm talking about talk space?
Hey, talk space.
I did put together a super cut of the quip ad in the second episode. Yeah, these are the highlight. I it's like a minute and a half of bullshit.
Yeah, it sounds bad, but there is some
Outstanding parts that I I strung together. This is the quip super cut. It looks cool. It has no charger
Really nice and compact and so
really nice and compact and so wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee What? I know how I'll really bring the listener in. I'll go and record this in my bathroom. Yeah, that's what I think he was in the bathroom.
Yeah, 100%.
Well, let me play this set up to that
because this is so frustrating to me.
So this is Guy Joey who's the producer,
or does the post production,
I don't know what the fuck his job is.
But he's the guy who they talk to on the show.
Oh, Joey's gonna take this part out.
They blame him for everything.
No, that's the cop that they blame for.
Yeah, and this is after the, where he explains why the show sucks.
Right.
I gotta save this.
I better bring in my fucking kid.
Yes!
Yeah, that's the answer.
Right, so Joey says, yeah, for some reason the guy who's running the board didn't bring
Carl's mic up, and then he does this bit that's out of fucking nowhere.
Greg, where are you?
Obi went to the bathroom, dad.
Bathroom? What are you doing in the bathroom?
He's got a new toothbrush. I think he's brushing his teeth.
Oh, alright, thanks.
How'd you get on this podcast, Roman?
I even iPad and internet.
Seriously? How'd you get on here?
I told you I'd have to kill you. I'm in a positive right there. How is that a funny bit? Anyway, this guy just wanted to have his kid on the show I guess I don't know it's not funny. You're fun. No one's having fun with that
The only real is he watching his kid go to the bathroom probably
I know this again a toilet flushing. It's so hacky
I know that I got a toilet flushing. It's so hacky.
Like John and Opie both complain that people went after their kids like.
And that thing.
And then this guy brings his kid on like, I don't know, I won't go after his kid because
I want to just shred this whole thing, but that was ridiculous.
I'll just say that's ridiculous.
All right, so then, so this all the sudden now goes into that library that Anthony had
the super cut of or Andy had the super cut off.
But I just have to play this for you
because this is so confusing to me.
All right, here's Greg from the bathroom.
Get quip.com slash OP, I love my electric toothbrush
from Quip.
I gotta tell you, it's sleek, it looks cool,
it has no charger.
As soon as I got my Quip in the mail,
I threw my old Alessio toothbrush right in the garbage.
With Quip, it charges with one single A battery,
so it's really nice.
All right.
And sweet.
Here's my question, guys.
He's talking about an electronic toothbrush.
He says, it charges with a battery.
That's not charging.
It's running off of it.
It's the opposite of charging, right?
And he says, with a single A battery.
I've never owned an A battery in my life.
There's double A and triple A.
That's a single A battery.
Do you guys even know what that is?
I'm sure it's a thing.
I've never heard of it.
I've never heard of it.
I don't know, maybe.
Maybe.
You can get a cigarette battery.
I'd rather just plug it into the wall.
I have an outlet in my bathroom.
So what you're saying is that you've never heard of it.
It doesn't exist.
I'm asking you.
Is this a thing?
All right.
This is another thing.
As we're talking about these cheesy production moments
where they're doing a podcast but then they're also teetering on like a morning zoo.
At the end of part one, they go into this thing where they read off people who followed
the show on Twitter.
I stuck.
This is out of listening.
This is the follow-back segments. Opie radio follow-backs.
So let's look out into our magic window
and give a great big Opie radio follow-back to the following.
At Gertie Mac.
At Ben underscore Marsh.
At Nando Orlando 55.
At GZU 74.
J-E-Z-O-O.
Or is going on here?
This is a weird element to the show because it reminds me of the show we did last week.
Killers, Colton, nut jobs.
Right.
Where for 30% of the show, he's just reading people's names.
Hey, Trion.
Who the hell is she?
It wasn't even a patron because they didn't make four bucks a month.
I don't know what this was.
Right.
But then this show has the cheesy over-the-top morning zoo production where it's going right in the locker room.
Yeah, it's right in the back.
And it's like a crowd cheering.
And it doesn't make any sense.
It's just reading off Twitter handles.
Yeah. And they're like, follow these people because they follow us.
Like, no!
No.
I did.
I did.
I did.
I did.
I did. I did.
I did.
I did. I did. I did.
I did.
I did. I did. I did point. Yeah. I was done. What have you heard things about? Even when I'm supposed to be listening to it
to pull clips and say, this is fucking stupid.
You had a juxtaposed, I still have to turn it off.
Oh my God, I still have more to get to you guys.
Do you have more clips to talk about?
I don't know.
Do you want to hear OP react to the,
starting John Stutter that fucking everyone's
heard a billion times?
Oh, right.
Yeah, they act like this is the funniest thing.
It's like, we're all over this.
This is 1996.
It's like he never heard it before.
Okay.
And John keeps telling everyone, oh, it's okay to laugh.
Yeah, a laugh if I want.
It's the only thing you do that makes people laugh.
Your name is Stuttering John.
Yeah, you don't have to give people
to write your famous.
To laugh in your face that you can't talk.
That's all anybody's ever done for you to you what that's all you ever give
Ralphie and said
That's okay laugh. It's okay to laugh. That's what my therapist always did
So Ralphie had so he had like you know goofed to me on stage at the time being private. Okay. It's okay
And he's a pile like a acts like he never heard it before and then apologizes for laughing in his face over it
I'm like what the fuck is this?
Yeah, yeah, I was wearing it's another thing that OP does is he loves to interrupt people
This is so classic OP. He asks a question and then doesn't let them answer.
I'm gonna go in a different direction with this now because you know how it's turned show the OP and Anthony show you know we were pretty big as well.
Like the toxicity. It sounds like you guys did escape that it. It sounded like your environment was extremely toxic as well. And I want to ask both you guys that why you think that is
In our world we had plenty of
Oh, this was a guy who was out of panel and a podcasting invention and talked about interviewing people and how good he was at it
Oh, I'm really good at interviewing people you just asked a long question where you complimented yourself and then interrupt the people
as soon as they started to talk.
Andy, I don't know what you think about that clip.
What the pro with that clip is?
What the fuck is that?
That's not a good interviewing technique.
I only got one left that this is Howard Stern big times OP.
Okay.
So then that happened a couple more times because he would come out of the, uh,
freight elevator.
It was the only way, you know, he couldn't avoid me.
I couldn't avoid him.
Next thing you know, I find out that the series XM is shutting down the hallways.
Yeah.
And, and after I asked the right people to go, it's absolutely because of you.
He doesn't want to fucking deal with you.
So that makes all of us.
He doesn't want to deal with you. He's in hide at Howard and Howard's like we got to change this
I'm the building
I want to see this asshole again, and then Opie goes on to explain how they changed the rules of how they're able to walk
Around the building and Opie this is again a I don't know how I'm gonna allow you guys know Opie
But it's such a classic thing. He was always in the creating viral videos
So he was always at his phone now that this video's
gonna go viral man.
Listen to this clip.
Next thing you know, I find out that the series XM
is shutting down the hallways.
Yeah.
And after I asked the right people to go,
it's absolutely because of you,
he doesn't want to fucking deal with you.
So in the elevator bank, you know where that is,
and then the glass, I would have to sit out there
that the video's on my YouTube channel
We could put in the description of this podcast whatever, but it's done incredibly well. I had a wait
He says that videos don't incredibly well the video he took on his phone. Yeah, the video of this new
Situation at the building. It's done incredibly well. Oh, be you're trying to get viral videos still
I thought you were a celebrity
That's what you're worried about is YouTube views. That's what I'm worried about. Here's an incredibly well-done video of me behind a glass wall filming Howard Stern walk-by
Without saying a word to me. It's not a credibly well. It's done by the way driver giving me the finger. Yeah
All right, I want to play a couple of other things real quick.
Jackie, the joke man, is talking to Carl Rewaz,
who's a Cuban.
Do you guys know that he's a Cuban?
If, yeah.
He's mentioned this many times.
Yes.
And Jackie asked him,
that's his nickname.
No, Sturring John asked him what nationality was.
Yeah.
Right.
Yes, it's a Cuban.
But Jackie wasn't there when that happened.
So Jackie doesn't know that there's been Cubans in Mexicans.
He apologizes to Carl for doing a Mexican joke.
I said if you're an offensive call, but if you're a Mexican standing on the fucking,
if you're a Mexican on the corner with a shovel and they pick you up to go pick lettuce,
you make more than $25,000 a year.
To the offensive part was not the joke.
It was thinking that a Cuban and a Mexican is the same person.
They're wildly different.
And later on in part two, I didn't get this clip
because I just fucking ran out of time.
Jackie starts talking about spicy food.
He's like, Carol, you know about this,
but it's like all the peppers and the hot sauce,
that's some of Cuban food isn't all that's Mexican food.
Cuban food is very different than that.
Stupid old Reese's.
He's a stupid old Reese.
It tells the Holocaust joke at the end of the first one too.
Yeah.
He's stupidly proud about, oh, I spread it around.
I do a jujoke and then I do a black joke
and then I mix up Cubans and Mexicans.
Which is fine.
And I talk about, you know, mentally challenged people
I spread it around.
I don't care about any of those things.
But I find it to be hilarious. He doesn't know the difference between Mexican's acupoints. Yeah, he's surprising to be like
This is these cuties a bit around his entire life. It's a bit is that he doesn't care
No, the bit is that he honestly doesn't know the difference
He's not doing a joke there if that was the joke I would have been out in on it
He was that was not a joke. I had the end of part one, they tease part two, which is so fucking weird. Again, this is getting into this weird
radio morning zoo production value thing where they replay
parts from the show you just heard.
Remember this is not a radio show where it's now and a half and maybe I listen to 15 minutes in the beginning because I was on my commute.
This is a podcast we've all listened to.
They play a clip from that,
and then they tease the next episode
and make the most hackiest fucking joke.
And Stuttering John Melendez, I thought I was on ours.
That poor bastard must have a heck of a time
on talk like a pirate day.
The...
R-Ralphian sense.
Yeah.
Oh.
I'm in a sick mood now.
I'm in a sick mood. You can't even love it if I'm out. Uh, he can't say R, as he goes, Ralphie and
He can't say ours he goes oh talk like a pirate days gotta be a bitch for this guy is it is your son writing these jokes
Roman write me a joke what the fuck is going on? Roman are you done on the toilet flush and write me a joke?
All right, I have one more clip that I want to play it. There's anything else you guys want to play we can do that I know it's a marathon you only have one more clip that I want to play. It's just anything else you guys want to play. We can do that. I know it's a marathon. You only have one more clip.
Yeah.
So we don't have like a half an hour on the brother
Wee's section of this.
We could talk about it.
I was just like, we really want to just
just have funnier about it.
I just want to say, I just want to say,
whoever likes to send brother Wee's all of the clips
from this show, that Wee was talked about that on this show
Fairly extensively and we left it alone. So this is I mean, there's so much to talk about
I'm interested. Yeah, and I don't think our listeners care about weasewes
Somebody does because they one person
Soliciously one person does try to get me in trouble with this fucking guy and whatever
I want to talk about the fact that OP has mentioned many times Anthony and Jim
talk shit about him and OP says well these guys have nothing else to talk about
so that's where they make fun of me I do my own show I don't have to talk about
these guys I take the high road right this is him again saying this I tried to
I tried to take the high road as much as I can't All right, let's talk about Opie taking the high road
You have to lead us not here is Opie taking the high road on Anthony and Jim who those guys are obsessed with me
I never talked about them Jim Norton's a pussy. I mean, he really is a pussy because so he just stayed for the money
Absolutely and the fact that it was a huge audience he would he would spit on the floor if his breakfast was wrong. Oh really?
He was insane. Anthony was a drunk. He wasn't a drug addict.
I don't know what the fuck. Oh, no, I didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't listen to you guys.
I was I was busy doing a show. I didn't know that he was a he was a
he is whatever whatever. I'm trying to trust me.
You're trying to fucking get me going.
Anthony, you know, party, let's say.
And it's getting gotten away with the radio show.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He was calling in sick or late or not.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's falling asleep on the air.
Even the staff that was really on his side
would get frustrated because, you know, six o'clock
or when we were starting at seven,
sometimes right around six or seven in the morning,
we still weren't sure if he was going to make it.
Oh, see, I know my fucking treat.
I hear the show isn't doing that great.
We're going to take the high road.
Nailed it.
I think that's exactly how you do that.
Holy shit.
Some serious shit dog.
I'm not going to throw you under the bus, Carl, and tell everybody that you steal your mother-in-law's social security check
I mean I'm taking the iron exactly
The other thing that Opie says I didn't clip it, but it's just so funny to me
You know every time Opie talks shit about people used to work with he has to fast up to some ownership because he knows he was a shit head
Yeah, so he says listen. I used to have an anger problem. I've addressed that. I've taken care of it.
He's taking care of his anger problem.
Is this out to you guys?
Like he's taking care of this?
Like he's fixed.
He's figured this out.
Very angry.
Everybody that's ever known him.
All right.
Well, that was a lot.
That was a lot to get through.
Is there anything else you guys want to talk about
as far as this OP show?
Ooh, that was this.
I mean, goofy got OP is as easy as murdering a newborn.
Am I right guys?
All right.
I do want to play a voicemail that we received.
You guys will appreciate us.
Best modeling tips, best tips for modeling
and entrepreneurial success.
Now fucking song has been sucking my head for days.
I love the show, long time listener.
Now the Kevin's gone, you should have croj on all the time.
Oh, we should have croj on all the time
now the Kevin's gone.
Oh, that's a pretty good idea.
I feel like I think this guy's onto something.
Anyway, he was referencing a very old show
that we did called Best Modeling Tips.
It's my sister's favorite episode. Anyway, he was referencing a very old show that we did called Best Modeling Tips. This is my sister's favorite episode.

It was a voicemail, five, six, one, two, 1388.
And talk about how the co-hosts
who are currently on my show suck.
Yeah, co-hosting.

Don't you think that if Carl could get croj every time
he would? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha then we'll call it quits. And the P-re-re-re-yo segment? Yeah, right, exactly. So now it's set for Opie Radio.
No, no, no, no.
I don't know if you guys know this,
but I finally got on the Dixho.
I heard it.
I heard it.
Good, good, okay.
I was a guest on Dixho last week,
and actually it came out on Tuesday.
And about an hour and 35 minutes in,
if you wanna check it out,
did about a half an hour interview with him.
This is how that interview started out him asking me how I pee.
Carl did, Carl and his, Carl and his boys reviewed an episode of this show.
Yeah. It was the episode where Mr. Fancypants was on and we first discovered that some men
are pissing in bizarre ways. Yeah. Yeah. Carl, by the way, which way do you piss? Is it
above the, through the fly or above the open?
Always through the fly.
That's ridiculous.
You would put your pants out when you're seven.
That's ridiculous.
Exactly.
Like butters in South Park.
Exactly.
You're driving.
What do you put your pants out?
Yeah.
All the way down around your ankles, just piss into the urn.
You're asking for it.
Yeah.
You're hanging your ass out.
Like you're asking to get it sl-
I carry around a wet towel now.
Just in case I see a man at a urinal pissing over
his fly, give that a crack.
Crack.
Was sitting down in option?
That's how I do it.
Yeah, they only give the two.
Through the fly or above the waistband.
They don't talk about, do you just sit down
and pee through your vagina?
Yeah, I pull up my pant leg and go right down the body.
This is, I'm just gonna play some quick clips on here.
I'm just teasing my appearance on the Diction show.
This is not like the anti-coupi chart,
I play the entire bucket.
This is, in the middle of our conversation,
this is a Sunday afternoon, I'm watching the bills game.
I have people over upstairs in my house,
I'm hearing the yelling, I got the game on down here. And this is me just reacting to the bills.
Right. Well, I've had this conversation with them so many times. Like, why do you think,
why do you think abusing children like this or treating children like this is beneficial?
And you're like, well, that's how you get the next Mozart. Like, okay. Holy shit, the bills
just won the game. There you go with a field go with zero seconds to go
Your supposed to be talking much more important. I'm a terrible guest at a show and I'm watching football
These talkies like going up with this random about bad ex. I'm not paying attention at all
How we entertaining the dick show is
How do you mean it's a abuse children you didn't laugh like Jackie?
I have a TV off. How do you mean it'd say abuse children?
You didn't laugh like Jackie?
Ah!
Woo!
Woo!
Here is, he asked me what makes me a rage.
So what do you ask all of his guests?
You come prepared to tell him what pisses you off the most.
Yeah.
All right, Carl, what makes you a rage, man?
Dude, what makes me a rage?
People who shit at work.
Yeah.
I don't know what you guys do.
And if you go and do a- to 5 kind of thing,
I get so pissed off, I shit at home,
like an adult, and then I go to work all day.
And I don't get there on time.
I'm not pretending I get there on time,
but there are people who get there before me,
all high and mighty,
and then they're the bands of for a half an hour.
I've already done with this, shit, I'm working.
Don't fucking pay yourself on the back.
Oh, look at me, I got here at eight, did ya?
Cause you're shitting now.
That's impressive.
The reason we can't sleep in the bathroom at work
is because you asked holes are in there
shitting up a storm every day,
making it for the rest of us.
Inhabitable, inhabitable for the rest of us.
All right, this is why I do love Dick,
and I am a huge fan of his show,
because I brought that up,
and Dick just started to riffing on it,
and this is Dick on,
shooting before work.
Because those are the people you can't take on hunts.
You understand?
Yeah.
This is I'm talking about 10,000 years ago,
when you're in a cave,
you're getting your boys together to go rustle up some food, don't go knock down a mammoth or an elephant or something.
And bills fucking behind a tree because he got it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm trying to evade your one spear down.
Did you not shit this morning?
Stay the fuck home.
You're in no condition to go out and hunt with the rest of us.
We've all taken our morning shits.
You go figure it.
You stay home with the women today and help them hunt for cucumbers and clean up.
After us, that's what you're on shit,
you're on shit patrol buddy.
Shit dick.
All right, this is.
I gotta drink two cups of coffee before I take a shit, okay?
I don't just wake up having this shit.
Oh, you're one of those guys, train yourself.
I wanna give everybody a tip though.
Like, you know, we spend a lot of time
tearing everybody down, but I'll use this
upper teachable moment to build everybody up.
If you are going to shit at work,
don't leave your badge clipped to your pants
as you drop them down so I can go,
oh, Steve from accounting is thinking up the whole
fucking bathroom.
Take your name tag off your pants, put it in your pocket,
or wear it on a lanyard around your neck if you shit it work.
I'll go one better.
That's my tip.
I'll go one better.
I'll bring a different pair of shoes in
so that when you look at the store,
you're like, well, Carl doesn't wear air walks.
Can't be Carl in there, shit, I'll fucking throw you
way off my trail.
I love it.
I will buy it everything.
We talk about it in a meeting with the HR.
I'll do you one better.
Bring a fake pair of legs into the bathroom.
You're dangling them.
I listen to you too.
Oh, I work in a building that has a bathroom.
Got a shut cardboard box behind a dumpster like me.
This is a polarizing topic I realized
because on the subreddit, people were debating.
They were like, dude
Obviously this guy owns a company because you have to shit at work. You should be using that time
Yeah, to make money. The boss makes a dollar. I make a dime
Exactly. There's a guy that I work with so I was talking to you about this topic and he invented an app
And this is going back years ago where you would hit start you put in what you in whatever your hourly rate was or your salary and
you hit start when you start shitting and you'd stop when you did and it would tell you
how much money you made taking a shit and then you could save that with your friends you
gonna keep you later the overtime like how much money did I make this month shitting I
didn't realize this is the whole thing I will shit at home I will say my favorite thing
though was that there we have like a rotate and where I work the the janitorial staff kind of rotates through mostly because
The facilities people are like this guy's a fuck up. We need a new one. Yeah
They're at one point I went into the bathroom and I knew I could see that was the janitor shoes and he was sitting in there shitting
And I don't remember what movie it was, but I had just watched it so I knew he didn't have headphones in
I could just cure him sitting in the bathroom watching a movie.
That's what I'm talking about.
Do that shit at home.
You're in the barn.
You're taking a shit that's like an alcoholic working at a bar.
It's like making the mess that he has to clean up.
Makes perfect sense.
By the way, I want to point something out.
I've gotten a lot of flak from people who say, all you guys do is play other people's
shows, you don't have any original content.
We just did 7-1 minutes of shitting at work.
We are original material here.
That's pretty impressive, right?
We're way off the reservation from what this show is about.
It's funny too, because I got called out in the sub-right and they go, Carl was making
fun of Maddox for talking about farting for an hour and that his rage is shitting it work.
All right, good point. I do also have to say that.
You got me there. I do. It is something I do take mild pleasure in is when I do walk
into the bathroom at work and somebody just like rips fucking Taco Tuesday ass as I walk
in.
And it is nasty, but I'm just like, you're a fan of that.
That's my greatest fear.
I know.
I'm in there taking his shit.
I will hold it in if somebody walks in
and wait for them to leave something
that I, before I can finish.
I'll, I'll want up you guys.
I've held my breath until I've died before.
My, my biggest goal is to make sure,
because obviously the, the men's room
and the ladies room is right next to each other.
You were passed out on the floor.
I died.
I was watching myself from above.
I'm just waiting for the day where I can walk out of the door, and so, and a woman is walking into the bathroom,
and as I walk out, somebody's just like blasts ass, like his loud is possible in there.
That's what you're hoping for.
Some day it'll happen.
That's your dream.
Some day it'll happen.
That will happen. I hope for it every day. we should, Joe. That's a problem. Every day. I hope this dude is fucking corny.
All right. I have this clip that I want to play where we're starting to wrap things up while I'm on the
dick show and dick says this. Man, I, I, do you guys do guest host because I would honestly I would love
to come on and shit on a show with you.
I do guest host every single week.
You're on.
I love to come on.
Hey, hey, push them off about six or eight times.
It'll be fun.
Don't you, don't you fucking bump me to mother fucker.
I love it.
I deserve it.
Well, if you do, uh, man, the worst part of this
dick is I promoted the fact that was going to be on your show. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
All right. It's, look, I'm not going to say what it is, but I do have a date that dick
is going to co-host the show. Sweetie. ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] ["Fake Me Up"] All right, at the very end of my appearance on the Dick show, I did the thing that I was just making fun of
Opie and Carl for doing. I totally topical joke. I think I asked my regular. All right, buddy. I'm not I can't wait to be on the show
Jay, I definitely have to get you on. Let's coordinate that and I want to let you know that
36 years from now, I will remember this day. Thanks for having me on the show. Excellent
Yeah, all right. See you. I will remember this day. Thanks for having me. Excellent. Yeah. All right. See. I believe him. I said, I want to, I want to check out his show. Yeah. I don't want
to check out anything. Yeah. But I want to, it is, it is a great premise. It is a great
premise. Yeah. Sure. You got. Yeah. Why not? It's so fun to shit on people because
That's how you do a topical joke. You don't just come out and say what did you cabin off people?
I'm writing on my calendar did podcast with Joe you are and Carl and Pizz you
Will do it in a funny way. I hope dick didn't listen to this one because crows isn't on it
Here is a quick I-cell that I will definitely be putting on the board.
This is a podcasting expert.
Yep.
You got that right.
Dick.
I do have some new reviews that I want to read real quick.
This is one that came in on October 11th. The worst thing I have ever heard from the beginning
of the single episode I listened to in the morning. I felt insulted at a very personal level.
Not only are these jerks full of themselves, but they completely missed the point of podcasting.
Podcasts is about having fun. These people just like tearing down others. Not cool guys. Five
stuff. You missed the point of this show.
In the morning to you, not that.
That first I got it.
The five stars.
In the morning is a reference to you, no agenda.
Good for one thing.
If you're going to clear out a party,
bore your in-laws or make the Uber passengers hate you.
This podcast is perfect for you.
Otherwise, these sack peddlers are pure garbage. Five stars.
Here's another one, garbage. How I run like their will goes a garbage can, much like this
podcast, keep up the great work and open bashing Kazuru. Five stars. 100% free of chemicals
that turn frogs gay. Being away from Rochester for so long is to me forget how fun and useful it is to be a complete
A-hold of people.
After listening to WTP, my spine has grown back, making me the only person in my city
to actually have on.
Five stars.
Thank you, Johnny Steen.
I don't know where he lives now, but it sounds terrible.
That almost wasn't a roast though.
I know.
I was almost too confident about Johnson, but I'm not.
The worst ever.
I've never written a review before.
That is how awful this podcast is.
The production is lower than poor.
Their purpose is not to inform the listener, but to find anything they can to ridicule
the podcaster.
They find normal profanity so inadequate that they make up gratuitous ugly slurs.
The only way I would ever listen to another episode is to hear them review their own podcast.
That is a one star review.
No, we did it as well.
We did review our own podcast.
These two guys are here. It's episode 100.
So if you do want to hear us making fun of ourselves, that does exist.
But I like that they find normal profanity inadequate inadequate. So they make up. Or two to ugly. So we just find it boring
because we use it all the time. All right. Is this a new one? I don't think so, exclamation
point. These are a bunch of jaded cynical men who learn how to podcast. I thought I already
reviewed the stupid show. But since I did not, let me say I am blind
after listening, and now I wish I was deaf too. I do enjoy the Howard Sternnad
when saying W-A-T-P-E. I can't stop listening to this pile of bladder and rubbish.
I'm thinking of seeing out professional help or texting the crisis text line.
Five stars. So thank you for those. Keep those reviews coming in. The five star reviews are the ones that we enjoy much more than the ones that reviews.
Yeah, not bad for three guys and one microphone. Oh, that will read them both. Well, turn down the fourth. This is Westwood one.
Westwood one money. One money. This is your first time podcasting. Okay. this is everyone's favorite part of the show.
We've finally gotten there. Do you think we have any less
nervous still tuning into this?
This has just gone on a while.
It's gone on a while.
You've got a lot of energy to go.
Shit.
All right, it's time for everyone's favorite part of the show.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser. The teaser. This teaser. The teaser. The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
This is the part of the show where we play a clip from the show that we'll be playing next
week.
Two people excited about it.
Now, I'll say, last week I did not play a clip, and it was the most effective teaser we've
ever had.
I said, we're going to do Opie again.
The show hasn't come out yet.
Here are the guests.
People are all over it.
Every time I actually play the clip, people are like,
that sounds terrible, I don't know about that.
Whatever, I don't learn from anything.
So here is a clip from the show we'll be reviewing next week.
My name's Doug McAmbridge, I'm one of the two hosts with me,
as always, as Jamie Laredo, wearing bells.
I hope that's not distracting to anyone.
I have on my feather head dress. I've got some jingle bells hanging from my
vest. I just want to dump in a jingle bell sound throughout the entire podcast. So if people didn't watch this movie,
they know what it's like to listen to it. Or what about what's that weird, like
Indian call that Philippe does always he's always like
I can't do it because I was like it sounded like a it didn't sound like it came from his
No, it's not an electric. Yeah
This is a podcast called good times great movies
They've sent us a note they reviewed us on iTunes. They've been asking us to review their show
Asking you shall receive my prize.
I got a teaser for our listeners.
Next week, Crosial Beyond.
No, so this is good times great movies.
And what these guys do is they review movies from the 80s.
Okay.
Every two weeks they watch a new movie from the 80s and then do a show about it We're gonna do episode 85 can't stop the music
You guys from Miller with can't stop the music from 1980. No, this is a movie
Yes, it's stars Steve Gutenberg Bruce Jenner and the village people
Yeah, and it's hilarious because when you actually when you go on the internet and look up who's in the movie
It says it was Caitlyn Jenner playing...
No, I swear it in her account.
That IMDB switched it, so...
It's crazy.
It's not Caitlyn Jenner.
It's not Caitlyn Jenner. It's Bruce Jenner.
It's definitely, I've seen this movie. It's definitely Bruce Jenner from 1980.
This movie I have watched because...
How did this get made?
We've run out of time to know about it.
And it is amazing.
I love this movie.
So I'm looking forward to listening
to these two jerk-ass talk about this movie
that I've enjoyed very much.
You might actually like that podcast girl.
Based on how that thing gets off to that start.
Woof.
I don't know, man.
I mean, yeah.
I have an open mind.
This might be great.
Let's give it a chance.
Go finally be the episode when you figure it out.
And maybe Kroger like it.
So butter.
The only other thing I wanted to point out here
is people send me emails, and typically I write them back
very quickly.
They'll send me suggestions or just, they're take on the show, and I'll write them back very quickly. There's some suggestions or just,
they're take on the show and I'll write them back.
I got a note from our buddy Maynard in Australia
and I have a lot of Maynard.
And all I want to do is write this guy back,
but you ever get an email that looks like
it took someone a really long time to write.
I'm so bad at responding to those types of emails.
I've read through this thing and I'm like,
oh, we should, he must have spent a week on this email.
So now I feel like I have to spend a week to write him back.
And it's just not gonna go.
We just cause he heard you were gonna come to us.
Yes!
I'm invited!
We're gonna go hang out with them.
I can go.
All right, well, in 80s, come in.
Jen from the Jingle department, let's all go.
We'll close you down there.
We'll close you up.
Close up you on Skype.
I'll start saving up.
Anyway, May and I, I will write you back.
Thank you for the know.
I probably will get to it this month.
I imagine.
It's just, it's so overwhelming.
Sure.
We're thinking about you.
I mean guys.
I think about you, dude.
In this day and age, I get a text message.
I respond to the text message.
Maybe I wait an hour, but I'll get back to it at some point
You get an email that's multiple paragraphs
I mean, you're just you're paralyzed
Like a mark is level email. Yes. Why don't you mark?
Mark is in touch with Nainer and yeah, yeah, I
Like this. Yeah. I like this. This is really kind of scenes.
So please join us again next week
because it might be the episode
where we find out what's it for all.

This is the one clip I didn't play because I think we covered this, but I put some production
behind it.
So I'm going to play it.
All right.
Yeah.
It was headlining Las Vegas.
A huge party upstairs and I had all the comics up there.
You know, Dennis Blair and Max Alexander, Tony and Billy West.
We had a great gang.
We had two floors sweet.
The suite that the narrow and Sharon Stone
were in in the film Casino.
That was, that was what they gave.
