"stop languishing in vagueries and fucking say something of substance" what a beautiful sentence
"Are you habitually late?"
"Habitually? No. A lot? No, but"
LOL
Best part of the show!
28:49
I love how Opie, Anthony and Jimmy completely shut the fuck up to get every ounce of this argument out LOL I wish I was there to see how awkward they looked. These were the best O&A days lol
Anthony on pal talk picking his head up occasionally, opie playing candy crush
@@mikejohnson734not at this point in time
Danny somehow managed to get in a fight with staff when he wasn’t even in the studio
Opie saying sam is going to "get a sweet promotion someday"
Oh if you only knew.
New to the situation. What happened? Lol
@@CodenameOliver101 The Jim Norton and Sam Roberts Show on Sirius XM. The show ended up getting Opie's morning spot and then a few months later Opie got fired.
😂😂😂
Sam and Danni...each had their goim
Foreshadowing at its best
I always found it so sweet how Anthony would defend Danny. Love is a partnership and Anthony always held up his end of that bargain. The world would heal if we could all love like they did.
The best part about all these on-air fights is Jimmy going 'Oooh' after their insults to instigate it more.
Absolutely 🤣🤣🤣
Correct 🤣🤣🤣
Ahhh man
It’s the best part. I love when they finally called him out on it
I love when Patrice O’Neal calls him out on that
I like how this would normally be an HR behind-closed-doors conversation for any other job 😅
literally this entire show was ended from HR behind closed doors convos...
@@lucrative6477 I didn’t know Anthony hating black people was behind closed doors.
@@bngmob, he doesn't hate black people. He hates criminals and those with a victim mentality.
It's a work

I love the Jimmy "Ohhhh's" trying to instigate shit, lol
Oooooh
Doc are you telling me... That you built a time machine... Out of a DeLorean?
Loooool great comment
Dude kind of lost some bass in his voice when Erock snapped lol. Erock sounds like Marty McFly when he yells lol
I love angry erock.
Sounds like famous wrestler "The Virus"

love this shit. why is other people fighting so damn funny?
omgahamsandwich it’s insight to the rest of us and our behavior
It’s funny because you can separate yourself from the fight, and see just how ridiculous and childish adults can be.🙄
I love o&a but to b take down the 4th wall these are planned bits. Not real.
@@hdjablomi4687 we love tragedy as long as we're not tied to it...
@@hdjablomi4687 they're real but they know never to cross a line because this is their careers
I love how Jimmy keeps stirring the pot while analyzing Erock.
"He really hit you right there."
@@justynaanderson4588oh chip
I don't get all the Erock hate. Dude owned the argument except for the late part which he admitted was shitty.
bro he cant even admit that being late is bad and tries to throw random people under the bus so he doesnt have to take accountability. the people on the show are just trolling him to say more dumb shit because they realize how not self aware he is and its funny
But he’s right. He’s paid salary. As long as he gets his job done, everything else is irrelevant. Every time they try to say something is wrong or not done because he’s not there, he proves them wrong and they are forced to fall back on “yea but you are late.” They all seem more than happy to let Erock stay late every day but the when he comes in a little later they get mad? Again, he’s paid salary. He doesn’t get paid more for staying late. He does it because he needs to. These other guys don’t have a purpose once the show is over so they leave after the show. He has responsibilities that keep him there hours after the show is over. If they can’t come up with any real issues that come from him not being there earlier, they should just keep their mouths shut.
@@jessehopson291 but Than has a deadpan delivery so he wins
This is why I love this show, when coworkers start fighting they just let it happen
You spelled encourage it wrong
Erocks high pictch scream had a lil Bart Simpson in there
It's so good that Danny worked all those years as an intern and then got the boot. Sweet. sweet comeuppance.
he was an employee for years before he got fired
@@conradszHe still got fired and then lost another great job at Rockstar. Now hes a bartender. Definitely got his comeuppance.
Than looks like a manager at a Game Stop and Erock is his trainee.
13:15 ‘they’re not upset the boss comes in later’ one of the best lines from this argument
Thanks for the time stamp I legit rewind to listen to that part probably 5x everytime I listen to this clip. Damn it makes laugh every single time.
E-rock sounds like a 14 year old when he starts yelling.
Vince Williams stop projecting
@Vince Williams You know, people who get that angry at someone else's lethargy, when it doesn't affect them in the slightest, are usually angry about something else deep down...
The clip ends with Opie stepping on Norton's joke. Classic O&A.
good. fuck that worm and his D+ teir jokes
@@jabberman3000 Now, jabber, I _know_ you're not talking about Jim Norton. :)
@@E101ification I think Jabb... is confusing Jim with Opie. Jim is a top-tier comedy genius.
THE timer cut them off moron
Blaise St-Amant People think Jim Norton is funny??
This is probably the best segment I've heard with Opie. He actually seems to fully understand in this case that he needs to stfu and allow the funny to happen around him. He even has a couple of good timed lines as well. Like an albino deer.... so so rare.
Opie was good at swimming in uncomfortable situations created on the show. Hate to say it but he was responsible for some of the realist segments on the radio. Absolutely brutal.
Danny wasn’t even in the office that day and still had an on air argument
31:01 “stop languishing in vagaries, fucking say something of substance” is still maybe the funniest thing I ever heard on the radio.
Get em Erock! Stand your ground.
Slobbboooooo! I miss ole Katrina pits/dumpster gums
Team E-Rock he's been with the show this long for a reason in my opinion
It always strikes me as interesting that you can see someone and immediately know they’re an O&A fan/employee. Both these photos look like they were born to work on O&A
Than looks like he picks up a lot of Lot Lizards
What's that? Some kinda iguana or something

How was Danny able to take and break anthonys heart so quickly?
Probably the same way Than broke Jimmy's by squandering those stand up opportunities he gave em.
Anthony’s gay
Haha, I love it when E-Rock responds to the late comment.
"Habitually? No. Alot? ... no."
Erock sounds like Michae J Fox when he shouts.
" DAMN! IM LATE FOR SCHOOL!" * POWER OF LOVE SONG PLAYS
“I have to tell you about the future!”
Erock was a baller, everyone was jealous.
How much do you weigh?
@@mauicountygis5450How much do you make?
Wow Than lost steam so fucking quick when Erock responded to every point he threw out. Fuckin Spider!
Michael Cantwell What were you listening to? Than made him look stupid.
O&A were too fucking cheap to pay chump change for their own promotion through Steve’s website. They wanted the company to pay for it all because that’s what they did for Howard. They were never going be treated the same as Howard while working for the same company.
They could’ve put up a few thousand dollars and made their show amazing with a visual element, but instead, they bitched about how the company favored Howard. They didn’t know their own value. Ant had his own studio in his house at the time and he claimed it only cost him around $10k. You can’t tell me that they couldn’t have pooled together $20k-$30k to buy their own studio equipment and rented a studio space. They didn’t look at the bigger picture.
Look at that picture of Than and remember how Jay Mohr called him "C3P-Olerud"
As in “John”
The little Jimmy ooos hither and thither never, ever get old.
Once again I find myself here, enjoying these hilarious clips on a lazy, cold sunday in december.
get a life lose r
And I’m here on a hot hazy humid summer day enjoying! No matter what time of the year you can’t beat it! Lol
40:05 “People are like ‘Oh wow, shocking line by Ope’”
No…they’re not.
I'm listening to this while running late for work once again.
danny was fired haha
Why?
@@colino5056 Idk why he got fired, but the last I heard of him which was a couple years ago, he checked into a mental institution.
@@bluraynation5188 danggg well thx for the reply
@colino Danny won some contest at Sirius where he got tickets to attend some corporate event and he said on air he was going to bring a porn star . Was warned by management multiple times to not do it and he insisted he would do it. Not sure if he actually ended up bringing a porn star to the event but was fired right after that
@@grahamweiss5631 oh wow, what year was this?
I realize that Erock's lateness is perceived as elitist and unfair, but I believe him when he says he puts in more than his fair share in the after hours and at home. I believe his real problem is that he has anxiety about performing under pressure and working under a daily deadline. He's aware of what the show expects of him, and he prepares well for each day (his biggest critics find fault with his lateness, but rarely site specific examples of how his performance is lacking due to it). He clearly does his job better once the time crunch and frenetic pace of each morning in the studio (when everyone else's adrenalin is at it's peak) is over for the day. Anxiety like this can cause self sabotaging behavior (inexplicable habitual lateness) in order to avoid or postpone exposure to the trigger. It's easily mistaken for 'poor time management' because they crave independence and they need more privacy in order to focus. Trying to micromanage Erock's compliance (money jar, daily consequences for tardiness, etc.) will only have temporary results.
Yeah dude they treated erock terribly. people don't get that this show has so much bad karma that it's simply impossible to resurrect their career. only after death will these guys be missed
But if you're contracted to be at your job at a certain time it really doesn't matter what you do after your hours.
If he doesn't get paid for those extra hours, he should just go home each day.
They said time and time again that he stays there late because he does meaningless tasks (i.e. the kind of busy work that you might do when you have nothing going on at work, no deadline, etc.) and ends up having to stay to finish his more important day-to-day work, most likely because it is needed for the next day's show. So basically he fucks around all day, crams his work in at the end, then comes in late the next day, leaving those who showed up on time to scramble to get his shit together before the show. What a nightmare of a co-worker he must be. How many times have we heard about Opie wanting someone in the morning and they scrambled to get it because they didn't know that Erock had it....because he wasn't there to ask. Then he has a smug attitude like, "what's the big deal? That was already done."
great comment, i agree completely
Cant stand danny
The whole staff is rats.
Keith Woll Anthony cumia and jimmy norton are great people
Danny was pretty fucking funny, but also a whiny unlikable piece of shit.
No-one can. He argues like a menstruating woman all the time
SasamiNoKebabHouse Danny funny? Not possible.
Such a toxic work environment. Haha love it
You built a time machine?? Out of a DeLorean?
Clips like this make me believe Sam and Travis deserved to take over the show.
i love the staff fights
40:10 A rare moment of honesty for Opie. He was indeed furious when he was passed up by Sam.
"Blockbuster trade" WE GET IT! Holy shit say it again, please, say it again
Jimmy's line around 45:46 LOL
All the “oooh”s from Jimmy 🤣
Lol Opie is a star here because he isn't yelling hold on every 10 minute
46:14 the delivery of Opie trying to rework Jim's joke is textbook chipperson
So erock is basically there version of benjy bronk
I love on-show fights.
Explains why Rockstar quality has been going down hill if these guys were brought on board.
Which of these went to Rockstar
Only Than went to Rockstar
"Oh Wow, shocking line by Ope!"
Lol I cringed when he said that. Not the 'shocking line', him thinking it was shocking.
Well, he has to do whatever he can to build himself up, like when he makes his "fat jokes" line and then later when he keeps repeating "can I get a song" to try to start a bit.
It was Opie all along that couldn't get along with everyone
God, I knew he was going to put “everybody hurts” on. What a hack.
It's a sign of intelligence being late all the time.
EoinFC
I wish my boss knew that.
Also laziness
2 things:
1. Danny is a baby boy who can’t even handle Eric lightly using him as an example, got offended and had to call in at [presumably] 8AM when he called in sick…
2. Eric is a lazy, slovenly lump
45:57 LOL
- Danny says "I do", but (...)
- No, he's being proposed to by a liquor bottle
Love that pic of erock in the thumbnail
Milking the clock
Illogic Eyedea's I’m sure they’re paid salary.
Cow works
As a lazy piece of shit I gotta respect it
Cock*
@@joshb8976 It also means milking the argument for the day...
@17:40 "we are all in charge of Sam"
If they only knew how things would change. Lmao
Erock is fighting with obesity
21:55 wait for opies response. Most I think I’ve ever laughed at one of his lines. For whatever silly reason
The third time Everybody hurts starts playing and they're talking about sports is my favorite part
Love these guys so much didn't hearabout them until two months ago because I live in scotland
Are you the guy that phoned in once?
I didn’t know about them til 2 years ago because I’m 21. Glad I found them when I did because it’s endless ear food while working.
Hogie boy tears this bearded nothing to shreads.
ฯ Inson Were we listening to the same thing? Erock looks like an ass here.
jennpenn5 you just have a weird obsession with submitting to your boss. Who gives a fuck it’s an insignificant job show up whenever you want as long as the work is done
One of my favorite fights. lmao
Opie was so funny during this bit...oops I meant Jimmy
Anybody: *says anything*
Jimmy:oooooh!
33:54 “time wasting bag of shit? Is that what youre calling the boss?? I dont like it.” -Jimmy
I wish so badly I could have been a part of the O&A glory faus
"... and tedious" hahahahaha
Wow that propose to liker bottle line from jimmy was so fast and good
The gulping is maddening!!!!
anyone else listen to this bit to motivate them in the morning to make it to work on time?? 😅
I listen to this when I’m late to work and then I get there slowly
"C-3POlerud"
4:09 Erock instantly loses his testosterone.
I hate that Danny didn’t come to work, then he calls in to argue with Erock. They gave him way too many passes for shit that other people would’ve been trashed for. Which made him gave him a lot of self entitlement.
He was having sex with Anthony so he got special treatment.
Danny was a worthless douche. He lasted because he was Anthony's lackey and drinking buddy. Then turned on him. What a stupid ass.
This is one of the best staff fights but I find it funny in hindsight. Most of the people raking erock over the coals for not being punctual and/or hard working enough ended up being complete go nowhere failures. Danny for example, got fired from sirius, burned bridges horrifically at rockstar and was last seen trying to start a shitty, generic “pop culture” podcast which failed miserably and led to him being institutionalized and later seen sleeping on his father’s couch. He’s pretty much completely unemployable except as a dishwasher, bartender or street sweeper. O&A both got fired for stupid, unprofessional antics and have been phoning it in for years. Jimmy, by his own admission, would show up right as the show would start and would frequently sleep on air or write parts of his books. The only reason sam is still working is bc he’s a conniving, backstabbing shithead who’s loathed by nearly every former employee/intern but knows how to play office politics. Than tried to become a standup comedian but just ended up working at rockstar. It’s not as if show prep was high rise construction or working as a surgeon. As far as I can tell they were mostly doing audio editing on a deadline. Real hard work. At least erock is content enough to enjoy playing with legos and ghostbusters action figures despite his head ballooning up to rocky dennis proportions.
Jesus dude. That's DEEP!
The whole staff and most of the personalities from this show are like the gas station on the corner. At their height, exactly what you needed. But eventually, gone, replaced with something else and eventually completely forgotten.
but nothing has really replaced o&a, it's not possible to have a show like that today
sam was an evil genius at office politics and fucking with coworkers - but he was also the smartest and most motivated employee
How do you know all this about them?
33:50 Jimmy letting his true feelings out through a joke 😂
Yes Definitely Than. From what I can gather Erock was surpassed as a producer because of his lazyness. Than and Danny overtook Erock. Danny and Than are both gone. Danny got fired for Trying to take a pornstar to a Sirius-XM 'One Direction' interview. Not sure about Than.
He left to pursue his "comedy career".
sounds like Than and Erock are reading lines 😅
Instead of Jerry, Jerry! We're screaming Opie, Opie!
Go Erock! Dont take this shit.
There’s not enough information there to decide who is right. They keep talking about E-Rocks start time is 5am but what what time is his day supposed to finish? If he is paid salary than I believe if he stays late, he should be able to come in a little bit later. As long as he takes care of what he needs to at the end of the day to make sure the morning runs smoothly without him there than I don’t see the problem. Do they want him to stay late by himself to take care of things that THEY don’t take care of and then get there in the morning to help THEM do things they need to do?
Lmfao Erock always starts shit
I miss Steve.
LOL...how many of these are there where E-Rock is late? Gotta be at least 10 of them. xD
WHo's he fighting with? He sounds like Peter Griffin without the boston accent.
lol yeah, he sounds like a Canadian Peter Griffin
Erock sounds like Michael J. Fox when he's distraught.

I enjoyed this a lot over a decade later
Who is yelling at Erock at the beginning? Ive only been listening to O&A for a year.

Than was the little bitch in this argument. Erock was the only rational one of the underlings.
@@PeterTeal77 Than got so emotional so quickly
So bitch made
He’s jealous

Because he didn’t have the nuts to assert himself in that way
Kinda cringe how Travis tried to act tough and yell at Erock. God damn, and Erock just took it lol.
Erock sounds like a different person when he yells
theyre shitting on erock but theyre all inbreds
jobs are so annoying with being there at a certain time. if you do 8 hours of work that should be all that matters.
