Has Opie brought up any mention of the contract negotiations? I know its a long shot but I want some circumstance to happen where Opie and Anthony are back together.

Anthony doesn't though.

I'm really happy to no longer hear Anthony. Maybe one day he can send in some song parodies.

I think the only reasonable exposure to Ant at this point is to catch some clips every once in a while, or hear about the wacky stunts he will probably fail to pull off, and from afar watch his life very slowly fall apart inevitably somehow ending with him explaining on public record how a stripper drowning in his pool is not his fault

Ant can be a funny motherfucker, and he's now got a visual element to work with that can be used to great results (see the two headed girl and making that disabled victim sing). He should go more with that instead of whatever the gently caress point he's trying to make with this constant racial poo poo.

The visual stuff is nice sometimes but I also think a big chunk of the audience is audio-only. Not sure how deep he can go with it.

Wasn't it just a week ago that a lot of you were saying his show had gotten better?

It's pretty good when he has a decent guest on or finds a funny topic. Seems like he's still getting comfortable with what works and what doesn't. Compared to other comedy podcasts, it's one of the best out there.

I assume he's glad to be rid of that white supremacist like the rest of you are. There will be no reunion for at least a year, Opie has said about fifty times already that it's time for everyone to do their own thing separately.

For the wrong reasons, unfortunately. Once in a great while he makes a really funny line but mostly it's schadenfreude listening to him yell in his sad tiny box about what the browns did wrong today.

Taleeb Starkes was a great guest. Being from philadelphia myself I could appreciate his views of the city. I remember when MLK HS was built and to watch it erode over the years is just sad. Hearing an American of African decent such as Mr. Strarkes was truly refeshing.

Haha this guy is trying way too hard

You can tell he's super duper not racist because he said "American of African decent [???]". That means he views him as American first.

Did anyone else see This Is Where I Leave You this past weekend? Dax Shepard plays the douchiest stereotype shock jock you could think of. He's essentially Opie.

I love how the O&A subreddit and this thread are polar opposites. I've been enjoying the O&J show, although I agree it still hasn't quite found its groove. I don't think Opie is never going to be the funniest guy in the room, but he brings the radio vibe and a lot of great material to the show, he just needs two people to riff on it with. The O&J Show still feels like a radio show, Ant's show is a premium podcast, which is fine, but they feel very different. Frankly, I think they need to fill Ant's seat, lovely though it seems. I don't know who'd be up for it, but it'll be a better show when it's done.

Dan Soder would have been a great replacement but I don't think Sirius is interested in investing in the show.

Was there anything to the rumor of bringing Artie Lange on to replace Anthony?

I don't these qualities apply to anyone working on the show now.

If she actually found a job then good for her. Too bad it almost certainly won't last.

At least it will most likely end funny.

Technically that's very true, you can't be late for a job you don't have.
