View Full Version : Brother Wease and WNEW...

I'll admit, I rarely listen to WNEW on the weekends. But from what I've heard, Brother Wease has his fans here in NYC... probably a lot more fans than Don and Mike or Leykis
According to the NYRMB, Wease suggested that he do some live shots on WNEW, perhaps even doing a drive time slot instead of canned Leykis.
Wease was denied.
It's so fucking obvious that Infinity is trying to save as much money in changing the format.
These money saving techniques is why R&F are on in Middays and then repeated at night, you have Neer and Harris Allen (already on the WFAN payroll) doing mornings, and Leykis (huge contract with WNEW, still paying, might as well play him with nothing better).
Yeah, this might be speculation, but I seriously want to open a vein in a warm bath when I hear "Enter Sandman" now.
It's funny.
Street Fighting Man makes you turn on a radio.
Enter Sandman makes you want to turn it off.

i am a big fan of brother wease. i listen to him on the weekends, and i would listen to him if he was on during the week. Once again wnew is making a mistake in denying a talent already in their stable, in favor of syndicated shows nobody likes.

From everything I have heard from Wease, I like him. Of all the weekend crap that was on WNEW besides AFRO of course, why did they pick Leykis? Brother Wease would have been the obvious choice. But of course, NOOOOO!

Leykis was canned???
Wease is awesome. His show isn't really laugh out loud funny, but it's amusing and interesting.

Weeze is darn good, for a small market audience. He probably couldn't get great numbers in NYC tho. It's a tough town, demanding of something outragious like O&A, or fresh & entertaining like R&F. Regional players like LickAss, Don&Mike, and even Weeze will have a tough time here IMO. <P>

brother weeze is so fu***** liberal and boring. he is a typical upstate new york dj with a bad voice and an even wose hick accent. he was opies bitch and thats why he was put on new in the first place. stop kissing OAND A ass anthony was the best part of the show if not for anthony opie would be nowhere. i know from inside info opie is a backstabbing prick. its his fault the st pats thing happened and its his fault we lose the ron and fez show any day now. opie got the radio chick fired when her midday show was doing a 2.5 rating. why because he was a jealous prick. so please stop kissing opies ass. anthony is a great guy and so is norton but as for opie they don't come any phonier than him.when you listen to ron and fez you know they really like each other and that makes for agreat show. but with oanda you can tell opie is such a dick. why do you think ron hangs with anthony and not opie off air. opie invented wow. what a dick that guy is

Tom I agree 100%. Opie brings NOTHING to the table. A wannabe radio executive. My dream would be to have Ron, Fez and Anthony do a 3-7 shift on the same station as Stern. Brother Wease is at least entertaining, Lykas has no game.

If not for opie anthony would still would be nowhere...if not for O and A the station would not have changed it's format and Ron and Fez would not have been caLLed up from Florida...so jus shut the heLL up...

mad tom
09-21-2002, 06:51 PM
look i loved the opie and anthony show. however you gotta realize opie is a phoney back stabbing ass. if he cared about the station he would not have got the radio chick fired i was not a big fan of her show but she was bringing in real good ratings. i know for a fact she was canned because of opie you say it was opie who got anthony over he may have out anthony in the game but anthony was the mvp of the team.opie canned the chick to bring in brother wease but managment realized he would not work in nyc. as for tom likass he is by far the worst thing going in radio today but viacom has a big money contract with him so they are trying to recoup what they can before the station goes under. opie just had to try and be the ''out of control over the top dj'' with the st pat's fiasco and it blew up in his face and now ron and fez and all the fans of wnew will suffer. opie was the official leader in negotiations for the show and the buck stops with him i never liked the guy and now i know why.as for the O&A show coming back or going anywhere forget it viacom will and is gonna make them sit out the remainder of there contract. as a payback. guaranteed

thanks earth2ron
opie is probably the best straight man in the biz.yes ant is great and opie sets him up perfectly.remember without bud abbott there was no abbott and costello.every great comedy team has a great straight man. eg;martin and lewis 'laurel and hardy ,burns and allen [now i'm really showing my age]as far as opie getting the show taking off the air,i guess paul mercurio was just following orders from opie when the dick didn't just leave when the shit was hitting the fan instead of starting shit."WRONG TRY AGAIN DUMBASS"

Opie was the straight man because he wasn't funny. It is the same reason he never went on Ron and Fez. He had nothing to add. Tell me three funny things he said. In radio you ad lib. All the acts you mentioned practiced routines, O&A were FREE FORM radio. Why do you think Norton was there? Because they didn't want Ant to get stale. Do you think Opie could have been a stand-up? Anthony could have(voices, creative,quick) Norton is one. Ron and Fez were. In a comedy club, the best thing Opie could do is serve drinks. <P>

opie was and is a very average at best radio talk host. he was the one to constantly push the envelope on the show any body could be ''outragous'' you need not be very witty to do it. from playing nazi sound effects in the background of a former internment camp family survivor to st pats you don't need to be a great comedy or straight man time and time again opie tryed to be funny. and when e was'nt he did what anybody could do he took it to the lowest level to get a laugh. i guarantee you anthony will leave opie sooner than you think theres a future for him as for opie theres always a future in top 40 radio maybe z-100.''ha chauncy hayden opie here i invented wow not anthony please correct the quote anthony gave you'' what a backstabbing dick head. im sure you'll have ananswer for that statement too. i hope you soon get a mind of your own. otherwise i have a bridge to sell you

I caught the Weez again this weekend while at work, its a different kind of funny but the guy is funny. To me the old line up was great, with the exception of Don&Mike. You put the Weez in there old spot it would have been great. I don't know how we lost Farell I missed that one. But he was the only one who could get me to listen to sports cuz I can't stand sports. But that dude was a riot. I work some long hours and on the old line up my whole day was covered. I vote for the return of glorious Stalen radio 24 hours a day. <P>
