Odddzy posted:Howard would ban guests that did O&A from his show I believe. I kinda wonder sometimes if that's why Gilbert couldn't get on the air anymore. I remember Jay Mohr was banned because he appeared on O&A. But I think Gilbert just wasn't invited back because Howard was moving away from those types of guests. He had that one appearance where he kept making racist jokes and it seemed to genuinely upset Robyn. smarxist posted:@murderbryan on twitter (Streetfight Radio) has done a bunch of shock jock podcast stuff, i'm sure this thread is probably aware, but just throwing it out there Yeah, if anyone wants a really good deep dive into shock jocks, I highly recommend the Shockjock episodes by Murder Bryan. I think you can only get them on his Patreon, but there's like 40 hours of them talking about O&A, Stern, Mancow, Greaseman, Lykas, Bubba, etc. He has good guests on too for them (Felix Biederman appears in a lot). Anyway, the Mancow episodes are incredible.

Remember when Anthony called up Mancow to prank him and just ended up asking a legitimate question before Mancow dumped his call?

And it's joined by the Beatles radio, Tom Petty radio, Phish radio, Pearl Jam radio, Springsteen radio, Grateful Dead radio, Jimmy Buffett radio, Dave Matthews Band Radio, U2 Radio, and Bob Marley Radio (which replaced the actually somewhat good The Joint). 11 goddamn channels that are worse than hitting shuffle on an artist page on Spotify, because lol at them ever playing deep tracks. The Dead channel rules, actually. TL posted:I was blocked! That was a gently caress of a thing to listen to live. The best sound my radio has ever made is, after Bobo asks if she was real, Colin's annoyed as gently caress little "nnnO!"

my stomach hurts i think the real Anthony is the guy who would get really quiet whenever other people in the studio would start fighting, you could hear him off mic going “ahhh gently caress” like he was in pain

John Romero posted:my stomach hurts Not sure about Ant but the one instance of this I distinctly remember was when Opie and Ant got into a really heated argument on air (early 2010s, I want to say?) that went on for like 45 minutes. Then, during a rare pause in the arguing, Jimmy went “my tummy hurts” and it was like the first thing he’d said since the argument began.

I believe that was the grape incident, moments later Jim says that line was fed to him but since it bombed he mentioned someone said it in his ear.

All the Ron and Fez talk got me to upload a couple years worth of episodes from the beginning of the XM run to my Overcast podcast app... I miss listening to the buddays daily. Fez had so much energy in those early weeks too.

I discovered R+F way after Fez had gone downhill, I think around 2012 when I got a new car with satellite radio. Was there a triggering thing that started Fez’s spiral?

AndrewP posted:. Fez was a character who took over its host. It was the weirdest thing ever. Fez lost track of what was a shoot and what was a work and eventually it literally killed him. A similar thing happened to Peter Sellers as I understand. The nervousness of losing track of reality ruined their hearts

You know what really gets me about O&A is they were apparently the only people on earth that could get a bunch of funny people in a room together. Seriously, why is that so hard to do? They effortlessly got the likes of Ricky Gervais, Patrice ONeil, Colin Quinn, etc, all in a room together at once. Every comedy show/podcast since then simply cannot pull it off, without there being an awkward chemistry, or without the comedians all shouting and stepping all over each other. Maybe something about them being locked in the studio 5 days a week.

i think the platform was better for their business as a comic as well, being heard being funny in an atmosphere like that and getting your plugs in, whereas today there's more incentive to be the sole owner/operator posting your own clips and podcast/audio poo poo (its cheaper, more control, chance to go "viral" or some poo poo)

I listen to a lot of old R&F stuff on YouTube and looking back it's astounding how much content they mined from dingdongs arguing on message boards. Like, it's almost embarrassing.
