lmao Opie not saying hello back to Jim in the mornings, and Opie tries to defend saying he does it "at least 50%" of the time.

He's doing a paranoid reading into Jimmy saying hello.

"Why don't you quit?"

"I like having a job."

"But why don't you quit?"

I haven't listened yet (I'm about to) but I'm almost certain that he comes off like those people with mental illnesses that him and Jim railed on for hours: not seeing the damage and frustration they cause around them, and just keep going "But what about ME?!", no matter how many times you communicate or intervene.

It's exactly like that. "It can't always be me" "you should have been there for me" etc. Over and over and over. He makes extremely simple points that he can't even keep consistent and then repeats them endlessly.

The one legit point Opie has is that Ant got himself fired, and O&A was basically done by that point anyway. But they're pretty much irrelevant to the conversation today, and his relevant arguments are insane.

I just hope that when Jimmy is done that Soder doesn't take the Opie money. The Bonfire is killing it.

I'm 14 minutes in and you can tell that Opie is literally the problem for everything related to the O & A show.

He definitely thinks he can succeed on his own by living off his lame characters and morning zoo antics. He's really in for a rude awakening.

Yup, especially when Jim eluded to the whole Ben issue and he never told Jim about it because "He and Jim" aren't on that level.

He's so genuinely upset that Norton is still friends w/Ant and goes on the show and looks like he's the kid outside looking in. He also stated that "he's positive" that Ant talks poo poo to Jim about Opie when they're not on TACS and while I believe that part is true but can you blame Ant for not? He's frustrated too but Op is so mad that Jim is not exclusive to him that he's now shunned Jimmy for "Not being close" and part of his "Inside circle of trust" He's really a loving delusional old man.

I haven't heard any of this but it doesn't surprise me that the radio cancer that is Esther Ku was involved.

Jim won't do poo poo as a result of this and him and Op will be fine tomorrow because he needs the show more than anyone else.

Has Ant realized that yet? To me it seems like the Twitter rant just drew attention to the racist nonsense he was spouting on the air regularly when he had flew under the radar before because no one outside the circle of fans really listened to him.

I sympathize with Opie a lot. I spent most of my life lying, ignoring my feelings, ignoring conflict and pretending everything is okay. It's a toxic way of life that ruined almost all of my relationships.

But I'm literally half his age and have been trying to change that for a while now. Opie has no intention of admitting any fault in his personality, actions or lack thereof. I'd listen to the show again if Opie could start talking about himself honestly, because as of now he's just a shell of a person. A Greggshell. :haw:

She constantly tries to be cute and defuse the tension, which is the exact opposite of what should be happening. It's very annoying. The only good thing she did was say the name "Anthony" at the beginning of the clip.

Barely involved, thank god. She is normally annoying (often intentionally) but she had the sense to notice that she couldn't really do anything and only tried very occasionally to break the tension a bit.

Its weird that I actually liked Esther Ku's presence during this argument....

I'm 20 mins in and Opie is a psychopathic baby...He gets so offended and self righteous but 30sec later hes speaking in that upward inflection like "its fine its ok its fine". Personality disorder of some kind...

"We're not close..." - Opie

That's it. That's the clincher right there.

Seriously who even says "we're not close", that's so passive aggressive I can't even deal with it. Just come out and say "I don't trust you" except you can't because you're a loving paranoid psycho who can't back up any poo poo you say :psypop:

I don't think Opie could properly act or emulate emotion. Consider all of his fake laughing, and real on-air fights. It's easy to tell when people get to him.

Holy poo poo is this drama boring as gently caress. Jimmy needs to find someone like Soder to do a podcast with and stay the hell away from Opie and Anthony. Idiotic, racist douchebag or boring dramaqueen is not much of a choice.
