ONA was a really shitty show

[Gay Faggot.]

It is basically impossible to have a good 3-5h show every single day.

Really?

 

[Not bad]

If it weren't for the comics, O & A would have fallen into deep obscurity after the XFL failed.

Lots of revisionist history going on here...

While many posts on this thread accurately point out legitimate criticisms of the show, overall, it was a mostly entertaining program you could stick on in the background while gaming or whatever.

Once they moved away from the lame 'shock-jock' antics and created the podcast style 'hangout' vibe, it was a consistently funny show that had a solid rotation of like-minded comedians.

After all, you don't get former Stern or Ron & Fez fans creating a 'still hilarious' TM online community like this.

Yeah, that's true but it wasn't a subreddit or forum focused on Stern or Ron & Fez that mutated into whatever this thing is that we've got now.

Hours complaining Howard is a hack, shitty callers voicing the same opinion to get on the air, bitching about the syndicates either dropping or censoring them, new york traffic, bitching about Mel or management, we know how to do radio, firing us helps our career... It was hardly appointment radio. The YouTube clips are good to listen to now and then but the full shows are fucking awful.

I never listened to O&A on any format. I've just heard a few of their clips. Hell, for the first few times I hears them, I couldn't fucking tell who was who- I really didn't know who was Opie and who was Anthony.

I only happened upon O&A because of Reddit.

Obviously Anthony was the racist Aryan white supremacist and Opie was the black guy

For Stern, I highly recommend Gilbert Gottfried. Gilbert vs German woman still gets my ribs to this day.

Billy West as Marge Schott also is fantastic. I can't believe that shit was on terrestrial radio.

Hersh da thing.. O&A was really good but for a relatively short period of time, the same can be said for Ant & Jim. Imo 07-10 was when the stars aligned and the show hit its peak. Anything before that was cringe radio and anything after was talk radio with a trio of apathetic fruits.

I could never get into Stern, however i did enjoy it when KC was on.

Radio is a cringe hobby for luddites and literal boomers. Good riddance. That's all I got alright punchin' out!

I personally enjoyed when Opie would burp into the mic....just like "one of the guys"
