So replays for the west coast is their grand plan to renovate the channel, and they believe Sabean will do the right thing. Opie is starting to believe his own bullshit, when he drat well knows better.

And yeah this audio quality is balls. Good job on the move to a more compressed channel, Ron and Fez.

(And Fez already stuttering.)

Nah, at least that interests me despite the bad opinions because they seem honest about them and explain their hosed up reasoning. When they bring stupid people on the air it's usually just trampling everyone's attempt to do anything until someone finally cracks a good insult.

Who knows though, because Dave claimed from the beginning that he called in sick with food poisoning 2 hours before and tweeted and a picture of him in bed sick to which Tim Sabian (sp??) replied "I hope your rear end feels better!" I think it comes down to the Sirius management doesn't give a gently caress about you unless you are Howard Stern.
I also like how the list of pissant radio shows with a TV show consisting of basically just a camera in the studio keeps increasing but O&A still don't get one. Not that anyone really expected anything to change when Tim showed up, I pretty much rolled my eyes at all the lip service Opie paid the guy.

The clearing off of the O&A channel really tempts me to go into tinfoil territory with the company's plans. It's a lot easier to go "oh wow what a surprise, this entire channel is wasted on one show and we need the bandwidth" after you've cleared it off than it is to convince O&A to go to Sirius Xm Stars 5 Comedy Golf Underground Voltage Dog 925 willingly.

Is this real life?
And she drops all these bombs casually, with the least interesting bits being the focus of everything.

Yeah seriously.

Listening to O&A go over this Monday, with Jimmy being back too, is going to be great.

Lady Di is a total lost cause. I'm guessing her military discharge wasn't honorable or medical (which if not reflects poorly), obviously a complete drunk, but also her credit is more than likely permanently trashed. As much of a mess Bill is himself, he's gotta reach a breaking point soon and will probably kick her out.

edit: If it was an actual "dishonorable", that's on par with being a convicted felon when it comes to employment. Good job Lady Di
Well you see, she was going to go home, but she spent the money to go to San Diego instead, but then she got tired of the motel there, and the movie was just ok, so she went back, and then she went to Arlington, and she went in front of a military board, and they went HOLY gently caress YOU ARE THE MOST IRRITATING PERSON IN THE WORLD and did whatever it took to get her to shut up and leave.

Jim still throws around human being pretty casually, although it's usually at himself. After hearing the break today, I'm guessing they're gonna stick with the same mentality for tranny as they do for human being, which is "It's not offensive to me and I can't empathize with those that find it offensive, so I'll keep using it."
I think they've made it pretty clear over the years that they don't give a poo poo if anyone gets upset about anything they say, except for that one time a couple weeks ago Opie awkwardly mentioned that maybe they shouldn't curse so much so people could replay their clips (as if a 'gently caress' is why they aren't going VIRAL as Opie dreams they should). If they pull back on anything I think it's probably just to avoid management yelling at them.

This is something all over national radio: Why is it whenever truckers call into a radio show, they feel the need to announce that they're a truck driver?
The naif in me says that they always ask the callers to tell where they're from, so the truck driver, being from basically no single place, has to constantly say "i drive a truck" to beg off the question. Reality is that they're probably bored to loving tears and would love any excuse to go off on what a lovely job driving a truck is (but still probably way better than what they would be doing otherwise).

On a happier note, my favorite bit from Lady Di week was actually the part that got pretty much overshadowed because of the mugging the following weekend, all the poo poo she talked about in her past with the comedians in studio at the end of Friday's show and into the postshow.
