People don't have the best social filter when they're angry and shitfaced drunk. Judging by the time Ant sent those tweets, he had to be in the bag, which fits with his earlier patterns of posting really, really, really borderline blatant racist poo poo on twitter in the early hours of the morning.

As a journalist, you're expected to make an attempt. Which is to say, clickbait headline hunters like Gawker hardly qualify as journalists.

We watched our friends grow up together
And we saw them as they fell

I guess Ant hinted on twitter that a podcast is coming. I don't see how we find out anything about what's happening next unless a) Opie and Jimmy quit voluntarily or b) The contract runs out in October and they don't renew. I'm guessing probably October no matter what, because I'm sure there's a non-compete clause in the contract barring them from talking about another gig until the contract is up. That's just me speculating though.

I would be interested to see if the show could continue on in some way. It just seems unlikely at this point, I guess. And if they're gone, what has Sirius got left to offer for morning drive shows? Just Stern who is barely in anymore? loving Covino and Rich? I guess maybe they could try moving Ellis up to 9am PST.

I'm guessing that Ant will go it alone and Opie/Jimmy will do their best to try to keep the Sirius XM gravy train rolling. I just can't see them giving up guaranteed money.

I'm still hoping that a miracle happens and we get Ron & Opie featuring Pepper Hicks & Jim Norton.

I was going to cancel if they didn't renew their contract (should have a long time ago). Now I can't cancel because it will look like I support Anthony "The Victim" Cumia.

I wish they would move Ellis to another channel for that matter. I like the music on Faction (I know, shut up) and every time I turn off from O&A I flip to Faction and then get mad that Ellis is on. Can't stand him.

Nah, not me, I don't wanna hear a story about a racist shock jock, NRA member, republican, regular guest on Fox news, outspoken proponent of George Zimmerman, fan of Hitler who regularly fucks 17 year olds getting fired from his job. You know what stories I like? I wanna hear a story about a guy that got to the job at 5 to 9 and left at 5 after 5. He got there early and left late. Those are the real heroes.

When it's just a bunch of insufferable, unemployed millennials getting :smug: on a dying Internet forum and donating money to some sad brain who wants to cut his dick off, it's p bad.

O&A ran its course years ago. What's the point of alleged listeners having a circle jerk over the show basically going tits up? Why would you listen to a show starring an admitted bigot to begin with?

I have a stupid question not in anyway related to Tony bo boney getting shitchanned but this has been something I've been wondering for a long time. I've listened to O&A since like 2007, but I've never been big into Ron and Fez. People often refer to Fez speaking in the "Fez voice" which I assume is his "gay" voice. Is there like an example of him talking normally? Or is it something he used to do? Really, I know a lot of people love old Fez but I've never really listened to any old Ron and Fez stuff, and I'd love to give it a listen.

The "Fez Voice" was his voice ramped up to 11. His normal voice is still slightly effeminate but not the HAY BUDDIESSSS that you know and love.

If you've only listened since 2007, you've never heard Fez voice outside of sparse moments like the Frank Watson show.
