Haha, listening to Opie bash Stacey Dash for saying "Hirojima" instead of "Hiroshima" gave me a laugh/eyeroll when he had just spent the entire day saying Chuck Webner instead of Chuck Wepner when they were talking about Ali

Opie probably shouldn't be bashing anyone's pronunciation when he reads news stories and trips up on 'big words' with all of the cadence and timing of a 3rd grader called on to read the next paragraph in class.

There's a whole loving lot of Sherrod Small, Vic Henley, and some other terrible ones I can't remember off the top of my head. That said, on a day where Sherrod was in, they also had Dave Attell and Gilbert Gottfried. So that's why I listened to THAT one...

They get no name guests mostly, faded comics, faded or C level actors, etc. I think the staff on the show is a lot smaller now too, Opie mentioned that recently. Basically, they are just collecting their paychecks and Sirius XM is dumb enough to continue to pay them well over what they are worth.

Sadly, no, unless you want to read off some /r/oanda stuff. There's Doug Stanhope being absolutely floored by the stupidity of Sherrod during the latest appearance he made. Sherrod pops off the 'dassdabessdoe, jus chillin n fuckin' line and Doug is like '... ... okay anyway...'

I'd find the black interpretation of asbestos and 'dassdabessdoe, pretty funny within the context of the next line. Just moronic funny. I enjoy Sherrod and Vic on their regular basis now though. You all ever listen to your city's talk show? It's still pretty much lame compared to this.

True, it's always easy to forget how much way worse stuff I had to choose from in the past. Doesn't make me dislike Opie any less (for example) but I still have respect for what he got done.

Though the podcast thing has been going strong for a long time now so it's mostly been laziness that had me stick with them after a point

I don't find Vic overly funny, but I like his music nerd-ness. Sherrod just grates on me with his "I'm black and I'm oversexed" schtick...it's practically minstrel show level buffoonery.

I seriously cannot imagine finding anything any of those people do or say funny on their own terms. It's incomprehensible to me.

I've never heard Sherrod say something funny. I don't mean "I don't find him funny and don't like his jokes." I don't think I've ever heard him make a joke. He just talks over people and/or makes noises.

A good comparison, yes. Sherrod makes quite the thing about his being black, though. It's like he knows he has nothing else to offer, so he mentions his skin color and Chris Rock as frequently as possible.

I automatically skip any show with Sherrod Small or Chris DeStefano. Which is a lot of shows because Opie now wants to hang with people who are on the same comedy level as him.

Well, poo poo. That just took the piss out of Sherrod. I recognized his idiocy, but that puts a light on him for it.
Who wants to find a video of Vic Henley looking just as ignorant? The guy plays or was a southern redneck good ol' boy despite living in New York a fair part of his life.
Someone who knows better shatter him next for me? I have a feeling it might be a bit harder. His radio skills seem really good, and he's definitely the better end of the blue collar comedy tour.

Nobody ever really calls Sherrod out, they just kind of ignore his outburst and move on. Or if it's something too stupid to ignore then the entire conversation shifts. Like the whole Cleopatra tangent on RW, which he backed up with a lot of bellowing, made up facts and zero actual proof.

The closest thing we have is Ben Bailey at the Patrice roast, and guess Sherrod's reaction to like 2 roast jokes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJyJ485sC5w&t=865s

The infuriating thing about Sherrod is that he's taking up space and phoning it in for a job that a hundred funnier people would love to do.

Yeah, but by being there he's showing everybody that Opie isn't a racist like Ant was. Or that's how the logic of that is supposed to go.

Ive mentioned it before but after Boner City died for reasons I don't know yet because I'm about 30 episodes in to 80ish, two of the guys, Danish and O'Neill, started their own podcast, which I've been enjoying a lot.
