i think they are they should be in a bigger spot light by now but to a lot of people they are still o&a's whipping boy's:wallbash:
Do you mean they are under appreciated by management or the fans?
I think being given an extra hour shows that the Sirius/XM bosses dig them, but I agree that they aren't promoted nearly enough.
If you mean by the fans, then my answer is yes.
I've been an avid radio listener for many, many years and can honestly say I've never heard another show that's anything like them.

Agreed on both parts of this.
I think it is even more prominent now than ever when they were on terrestrial.
Especially when people call in and abuse Fez relentlessly.
That is a form of under appreciation.

i mean by management after all these years they are just now starting to reach their own limelite and i think the show has been to good 4 too long to take this much time to start gettin the credit they deserve:glurps:

i think we are blessed to have someone like ron, and that there are people out there who have never heard of him. not only that, people like ron are a dying breed because their attitude/style doesnt fit into the corporate mindset.
underrated/under appreciated? of course. but we wouldnt be hipsters if everyone knew about it.

I was hoping that the 4 hour change would have brought them to afternoon drive. 11-3 is the crap shift. Sirius XM is lucky to have someone like Ronnie B. I'm a fan of both 202 shows because they have a completely different style and flow.

maybe not under appreciated but definitely off the radar with Sirius XM, so more underestimated than under appreciated...
When I renewed my xm subscription the girl asked what I listen to and I said I use my online subscription mainly for 202 to listen to R&F during the day and she immediately asked "what about O&A" and went on to recommend other comedy channels (like blue collar radio) I have no interest in.
Another thing was just recently when they emailed me a survey with listening preferences
and in the section of talk radio all the options were Howard and then O&A was lumped in with xl comedy like maddog... no mention of R&F at all... that was kinda disappointing.
