O&A listening thread for the week of 2/18/08

[underdog]

Larry the Cable Guy sucks.

And it irritates me that lil' Jimmy likes him.

[Lady Resin]

I was never into Larry, but Ron White is a pisser. The two of them had a special with Jeff Foxworthy.

[Heather 8]

Lewis Black vs Anthony in 15 minutes... oy. Vey.

[DolaMight]

Larry the Cable Guy sucks.

And it irritates me that lil' Jimmy likes him.

I don't know if he really likes him, I just think he respects his success. He looks at him as if he's an artist in another art form and he can't judge him because he sells out arena's. When he's on he always says "he sure sells tickets" not he's so funny.

I agree though that if Vos or Kelly suddenly changed topics so they could tell forced scripted hack t-shirt jokes they would be destroyed.

[BeerBandit]

This list (as they all are) is shit. I love CCR but I Heard it Through the Grapevine is so awful. The solos go absolutely nowhere. At least Edmond Fitzgerald and American Pie tell a story and still clock in at less than 9 minutes. The Grateful Dead's Dark Star had better be on this list. Wretched.

i would have guessed echoes by floyd, but they had a ton of them.

The people who write these lists have never even heard of Echoes.

By the way, sync up Echoes and the last segment of 2001: A Space Odyssey (Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite). Pretty neat. Oh the things we do on grass.

C'mon, Echoes is a great song. It's long, but not unnecessarily so - it's a progression.

I also don't agree with Twilight Zone; it's one of my favorite songs. There is also a radio edit version that cuts out most of the guitar solo in the middle. That makes it more palatable for most. I like the long version myself.

[MadMatt]

OK, I am REALLY enjoying the Dave Rabbit stuff - but every day?

Why do they have to replay the bits they already played on the FM side, especially since they are playing the whole damn tape tomorrow.

I guess they haven't completely given up on beating a bit into the ground...

[BeerBandit]

Why did we switch to Laugh Attack?

[IMSlacker]

Is Snoogans an O&A producer now?

[BeerBandit]

Don't tell Ronnie B. but I can't stand Lou Reed either.

[TheKlonoPin]

Mike Birbiglia is a gangster!!!

[MadMatt]

They are right; this animation is pretty dang funny. :laugh:

thats actually funny

[AlabamaMan]

Hey, what ever happened to lily going over to ants house? Is that what they are referring to about his house being empty?

[Lady Resin]

If I remember correctly, Ron said that Lily was panicing about the bet. Not sure about the house being empty. Maybe his chick went away for a few days.

[hexy68]

what's with all the references of stuff being missing from Ant's house?..nailclippers, Jack-Jack, soap...is Melinda still there?

[Lady Resin]

Maybe she realized she wanted to start a family also. :sad:

[S0S]

Dave Rabbit interview is very interesting since he was one of Opie's inspirations in college.

Chickens do sound stupid.

Nice rant by Jim Norton about the Egg & how dreary CSK could be.

Guess who's B-Day is tomorrow?
:bye:

Mike Birbiglia is sort of funny but he is doing his act almost word for word on the show. Very Bob and Tom sounding. Booo.

I thought the same thing.

On most shows that is what they expect, so you can't fault him too much.

It can sometimes take guests, especially comics, a little while to get used to the O&A "hang" vibe.

But OnA went with it like he was just chatting. I hate that shit. I know it is common but when I notice it I get annoyed. I like to pretend that people on the radio are just talking like people and not performing prepared material.

I had never even heard of him before, but it definitely sounded like he was just doing his act on air. It was pretty boring. And the fake laughing from OA&J was really fucking annoying.

But his story was really interesting.

And hearing Lee Abrahams go on and on I actually found interesting.

[S0S]

Today is Steve C's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Steve C.!
:thumbup:

[MadMatt]

Steve C. is an anti-social, porn obsessed, shill and douchebag.

But Happy Birthday Dude! :smile:

[MadMatt]

Friggin' slackers! You are already there, so do your goddamn show! You were going to leave early anyway, so what's an hour?!?!?!?!?!? :furious:

Dickheads.
