Opie Hughes is Mentally Unstable

[oPant]

Why else would he shit outside at the beach when a five minute walk would get him to a bathroom.

[StanUpshaw]

Same reason he'd piss all over the 14th green.

He was probably just fucking lying. When they asked him what he wiped with, he sure answered pretty slow while he tried to think of something that sounded good.

To head out to the line up. The waves were cranking Bro-Man.

[Melk]

Well, he is a rat. We all gave Whatley crap when he ratted on the Opie and Anthony crew's mashing grit into the carpet, not Mr. Hughes is crying to the suits about Fez's boil. Opie is a rat and a pussy.

How about someone who takes pictures of someone pissing on a green?

Put restrooms out there and we wouldn't have this problem. I have to drink at least one beer per hole so I need to piss 18 times per round.

[Space Edge]

His obsession with making his stupid videos go viral is sickening. It's never going to happen.

And stop brining in the "Whack Pack" every time you have comics on the show that are on a roll. It sucks the funny right out of the show. Nobody cares about some intern or bobo. Sometimes I wonder why Anthony dosen't speak up and say no when Opie says how about we bring in ______.

He doesn't understand the whole concept of a "viral video". You can't try to make a video viral -- people on the Internet are good at sniffing that out. It's just some video someone posts, and it catches on for no apparent reason. It just happens on its own, and you can't make it happen, no matter how much you try.

make it two. but only bobo and ira. i enjoy the comics by themselves but it ALWAYS turns into 5-6 guys trying so hard to bash each others "bombs" and laugh hysterically when someone mispronounces something. voss's mispronunciations are an art form but its not that funny when someone else does it.

but yeah, opie is a pointless liar. its like how fez needs an ailment to contribute, opie needs to make up a pointless lie. or make a really boring story try to sound interesting.

I like Ira but that's because I like The Jay Thomas show, but it's old hat that every time they have a guest it's lets roll in the freak show. Could be why they don't get guests anymore because the guests rather have the show centered around them for the time they are there instead of he look at our freaks. I would have loved to hear more from that Irish comic they had on yesterday but you could tell as soon as the intern kid was brought in he wanted nothing to do with it. The Irish guy even tried to bail. (I forget the guys name)

[sailor]

That's the only one I ever noticed it throwing the guest off. I think a large part of that was opie not knowing he was waiting an hour or so to go on. Fuckin' steve.

[KEITHJAY]

My favorite is Opie the the jock, we've all seen pictures of him in school he was ball boy or equipment manager at best

[RoseBlood]

Mentally Unstable? Whatever!

I'm more concerned about that weak urine stream.

He is getting up there in age.

[oPant]

It's funny how he thinks he is so much younger than other people his age. He says he doesn't want to hang out with his old friends that are his age because they seem so old to him.

I guess money makes you think you are younger and better looking that you are. Hoo Hoo has the same problem.

[oPant]

i do know he has
zero radio talent

That's not true. He is not the funniest guy in the room, but he is great at hosting the show.

Now I've come to realize that Howard has zero talent. He had some in the past but lost it.

If FM doesn't want them back, Sirius has them by the balls. They aren't brave enough to try podcasting or an iphone app.

If you don't know if you have a job on Friday wouldn't the stupidest thing to do to be to stop tweeting?

Way to think dOpie. Alienate your fans, while you still have some.

I think they will re-sign. It's their only option if they want to continue doing radio. There are no more FM stations for them to go to. They can't do a podcast because they haven't planed it out yet. There would be a lot of work for them to do in order to start a internet only show. I remember a few months ago Adam Carolla was on Howard Stern and he said in order for him to do his podcast he pays something like $10,000 a month out of pocket in hosting bills and he has sponsors and does live gigs to make money. If they went the podcast route they would need some time to plan it all out it's not like they could just start doing one the day after they are off Sirius/XM.

[conman823]

They might be up and running sooner then you think. Ant has a studio built and active in his house. Paltalk is already onboard with the show.

I don't think it will come to that but if they wanted to go live on the internet the next day they could from Ants house

[conman823]

"Howard's a hack who couldn't adapt" -Remember that little catch phrase?

Yeah they ate those words when they bombed their big Free FM return.

They need more then paltalk and Anthony's studio to pull it off.

With sirius letting O&A and R&F staff go, it doesn't bode well for a good offer from Sirius. If O&A leave, maybe R&F will get another producer.

A "good offer" went out the window a long time ago.

[Serpico1103]

By "good", I merely mean one that they would begrudgingly accept. Anthony is ok, he lives like WT, so he should be able to continue that. Opie has a wife and kid to worry about. Norton will just have to hustle more; get more comedy, TV, movie gigs.

What is the staff doing now? Looking at classifieds?

Exactly. That's why I think Opie sounds really pathetic doing all of this public whining. They have nowhere else to go. Sirius is the only realistic option they have left. I have a feeling O&A would take a significant pay cut to stay on satellite before swallowing their pride and doing a podcast.

Frankly, I'm so indifferent about the show these days that I don't really care what happens anymore. I finally decided that sitting through the same rants every day to get to the funny bits isn't worth the frustration. I spend more time rolling my eyes at my radio than I do laughing at it.

[JPMNICK]

why doesn't anything think regular radio is an option.

didn't the indecency fines or criteria just get altered. regular radio might be opening back up a little bit.

there is a ton of money in big market radio. maybe they go back to afternoon drive, name me 1 station besides WFAN that has a known afternoon drive show in the NYC market. they can find somewhere on a struggling station to go.

O&A's FM markets were dropping like flies several years ago, eventually ending with their home station dropping them. I don't see how the current radio climate is any better. If they managed to cut a deal with terrestrial, I can't imagine them making as much money as they are now with Sirius. What FM markets would put up that kind of money for them?

I dont get this either. Just because their mornings on Free FM didnt work out, doesnt mean they cant get work. There are plenty of markets and afternoon timeslots where they could work. People act like if they dont re-sign with Sirius thats it, their careers are over. Are you people retarded? Danny Bonaduce is still fucking working for Gods sake.

But I have a really hard time believing that any FM station would give them an offer that matches what Sirius is paying them now. Even if they aren't happy with what Sirius is offering them, do you think they would take a pay cut to do an FCC-compliant show on FM radio again?

Well Hot Talk on FM is dead. There aren't any stations for them to go to. The only non sports talk station I know of is the one we have here in Orlando. I don't think Opie and Anthony will move to continue their radio careers. Where would they go to in NYC? Hot 97 Power 105, KTU, Z100 Q104 they don't fit anywhere.

They aren't going to pick up and move to another market to do radio. Both own their places where they live in NY. I don't see them picking up and starting over again in another city. Then they get to a new city and sit there each month wondering if they will be let go because of ratings or a format switch.

[conman823]

With sirius letting O&A and R&F staff go, it doesn't bode well for a good offer from Sirius. If O&A leave, maybe R&F will get another producer.

Do you really think R&F will last without O&A? The R&F show has declined even faster then O&A.

And how much money does Danny Bonaduce make? Do you think he pulls in anywhere near as much money as O&A's current contract? Your right they could get a job and get that big 100K a year deal. Like that will sustain their current lifestyles.

[JPMNICK]

i have no clue what they make now, I cant even begin to speculate, but FM has a TON more money to throw around then XM.

they can go back to their old buddy fareed, Clear Channel might want them to compete with Infinity, there are a lot of possibilities.

they had enough money to pay out R&F and O&A on free FM then give Nick Cannon a couple million for the morning.

I know the industry is not where it was, but there are still WAY more people listening to free radio then satellite. Advertisers still spend a lot of money to put their stuff out there on a highly rated show.

Who did?

And don't forget we live in 2010, when even if whatever you're talking about is true, would they pay 'edgy radio hosts', and not 'name brands' like the young gentleman you mentioned the way people are railing against Sirius with Eminem and Martha and Oprah and Dylan etc...
