Call Me Charlie
Dec 3, 2005

Jim Norton & Sam Roberts is shaping up to be like Opie & Anthony in its prime (minus the shock-jockery)

Bennington is the genius of Ron Bennington buoyed by his IRL daughter and soon to be son-in-law producer Chris "Pepper Hicks" Stanley.

OpieRaqio is unlistenable garbage that forces Bennington to do a hard out every day. Opie never wanted to move to afternoons and had his morning slot stolen. He only signed a 1 year contract so Sirius better start treating him better or he's out of here.

Tranpa Anthony Cumia has his own dead gay podcast radio network and does guest spots on Infowars when he isn't busy looking for his gun.

Fez Whatley was last spotted at a Sea World attraction in Florida.

I've gotten used to Sam over the years but I still can't listen to him solo for more than twenty minutes.

I was just listening to Bennington for 40 minutes wondering how Ron got magically better after having the worst on-air sick voice I've ever heard yesterday. I even went to theinterrobang to see the video they were talking about and wondered why the date was wrong.

then I hear "It's the best of Bennington" and feel like a real maroon.

He's out sick? That's once in a blue moon. Hope he feels better.

Another show today where Opie can't do it by himself so he pulls someone else in from the bullpen, in this case Erock.

I hope the Opster retires happily after getting all his staff comfortable jobs and occasionally does call ins to Anthony's show.

I also hope for the Todd Show w/ Opie.

I don't care if it's happily or unhappily, I just hope he gets out because it's what he's wanted for at least half a decade now

Opie seems to bring in awful yes-men, and it really turns my stomach. I don't even have any hate for ERock because at least he stood up to the Opester once or twice. I tried to watch that interview with Artie Lange because I thought it would be interesting, but Opie kept impressing himself with the dumbest tangents, and then Vic Henley would toothily agree and giggle like a goon and I just wanted to smash his face in.

I'd rather listen to a hundred more hours of Vic Henley and Sherrod Small than one more of Opie

I've pinpointed another annoying Sam-ism: He begins every interview with something like "Hey man, what's up?" It's such an open ended question and inevitably leads to rambly answers. That said, show's still great, especially when Jason Ellis is nowhere near the studio.

And he wraps every one up with "Well listen..."

But yeah, I can deal with Sam's crutches because him and Norton work well together, and I'm a big fan of Silly Jim, which seems to be pretty frequent these days.

Have the whole building hate you for harassing Howard Stern, be a giant pain in the rear end by publicly crying about sharing a studio/having no office space, refuse to sign a long term deal....and get a better contract next year?
