So wait, comedians had to wait before they were allowed to enter the studio and be on the show?

I never pictured a green room. I always pictured the comics sitting right outside the studio, in plastic chairs with metal legs, like kids waiting outside the principal's office. "Mr. Hughes will see you now."

How many times did Patrice just start talking as he walked into the room and Opie had to tell him to get to the mic? The comedians treated it like they were just having a casual conversation, but that doesn’t translate over to broadcasting seamlessly.

I’m aggravated just reading about it. Working with fuckups who fuck up like they’re getting paid to do it is the worst. None of these guys ever matured in any way.

No disrespect, but I can't figure out if you ever listened to da show. I've seen some of your posts about Ant and shit, but you also said you found this place through KF. Terry also seems to think you're a female for some reason.

Opie locked Vos out of the studio towards the end of a show and he called in for a “prison visit” then just left because he was annoyed. Vos put up with a lot of shit, especially Anthony “jokingly” hitting on his young daughter.

No, I posted in another thread today that I knew of the show but it was on during years my family lived overseas. I’ve listened to clips but never had daily access and don’t have the patience to listen to full episode archives.

Great, that’s one more comic from this crew that I have to regard with contempt.

I guess most people would put them on as background noise.

Yeah I can imagine listening while cleaning the house, if that was one of my chores. I actually really enjoy time spent without any audio stimulation. If a podcaster I love has on a guest I love, I’ll just play it back at 1.5 or 2x speed while cooking dinner. I need fewer inputs in my life, not more.

GOOD. Make them fucking wait.

Another one of the Opester's decisions that is aging like a fine wine. If you want to hear what a show would be like if the comics got their way, listen to one of the You Know What Dude episodes with 7 open micers talking over each other.

Eh I see it both ways. Clearly you can't have Patrice barging in like the Kool-Aid Man and interrupting the segment, but I vaguely recall Louis CK & DiPaolo waiting 45+ minutes outside and it's like come on Opie. Wrap up whatever you're talking about and get the comic in, especially considering how you had to make them wake up early and shit. The Opster definitely was playing little powergames with his "we'll get to you when we get to you".

I like how when it comes to guests coming into the studio the Opie & Anthony show becomes the height of strict professionalism.

Opie was a chef. When you're making a sauce, you have to add the wine very early.... You also have to add some seasoning before serving.... Ya gotta know when to add the ingredients and when to stir the sauce, brothemen

Are you suggesting Opie didn’t prepare a perfectly calibrated run of show prior to broadcast?
