maybe they realized that they needed a radio guy to produce the show? if jim and ant could do a radio show together, they would. still hasnt happened. seriously, the opie hate is lame af. dont get me wrong, opie was a prick on the air and not particularly likeable but he was the sturdy femurs that held the show up and ant and jim made the show incredible with their chemistry and comedy. also, when opie wasnt on the show, the show suffered. ant would talk about how much he hates blacks and jim desperately needed things to react to. jim cant carry a show like bill burr can. lets face it. THEY ALL NEEDED EACH OTHER (to make a good radio show). you're all children of divorced parents siding with one of the parents. why cant we just appreciate the ENTITY of O & A? they all contributed to a GREAT show.
they definitely did, I really feel bad for jim and ant. The way he is just sitting there and enjoying that ego stroking talk they are giving to the guy on the phone. They are simply avoiding conflict because Opie will take it as they agree and he will have a terrible mood the whole day
@@davemanning4005 they did need eachother to work. But Opie literally got mad when he wasn't involved, when ant was fired and Jim stayed to do opies show, Opie fucking punished Jim for it. He would do anything just to cause problems. Opie Pushes Jim away and then punishes Jim for not being a good enough friend.
Hell yeah. Sometimes I forget this channel does that, and pi$$ myself every time. I can't listen to the old shows with bleep anymore, thanks to this channel. Not a complaint, a compliment.
Guy downright dawged Opie for having zero talent, and the only defense Ant could muster was "Yeah, but he's organized." 🤣🤣🤣 The word "talent" is a big part of "on air talent". Opie should have just worked as a manager behind the scenes.

I was just thinking that I haven't heard many calls where the listeners tell Opie the truth but then I remembered that opie controls the phones. Good job finding this rare moment where it went to air.
Jesus Christ man this one is painful. There's another moment like this where after a caller shits in O*ie, Burr and Ant actually pretend to not know how to have a conversation without "the captain steering the ship."
Lmao this callers voice has wrung in opies head the second it hits the pillow, every night, since it happened. This caller single handedly brought down the O&A show, 100%
@@DankBirdGang52 it's tragic. Imagine being Ant and so thankful you're not a blue-collar guy but you're now relying on a sociopath to not boot you back to tin knocking
Anthony: “And the credit is that you don’t even see it. You sit there and don’t see it because the average joe shouldn’t, the show seems like it’s just flowing along.” Opie: “HOLD ON HOLD ON we got Mike in Kentucky, MIKE?”
Thank you for this video because it helps give context to the Opie Hate. You can feel Yimmy and Ant struggle to come up with any words to appease Opie just to keep the Checks coming. You gotta remember, this is a pay day for the guys. Opie is the disillusioned one thinking he’s vital.
Opie was vital. They both owe their careers to him. He’s also annoying as fuck in the latter days of the show as well as a basket case today. However, let’s not rewrite history. He was a radio guy and the world of radio change. That’s it.
@@carteral-harlem3042 opie was barely a radio guy. He did nothing but shit shifts in shit markets until Ant joined him and he magically got his first major gig almost immediately. Opie got the show together, but that's it
>tfw all the shit they accredited Op*e for was shit I didn't like about the show Wow, an epic Stalker Pattie moment, what a treat, thanks Mr. The Destroyer
Opie gets so afraid in these moments, he either hides behind ant and jim to stroke his ego or he screams like a woman over any logical points and hangs up before anyone can embarrass him
To use the ship metaphor. Opie should have accepted Ant became the captain, Jim was first mate and he was the navigator but unfortunately his ego wouldn't let him do it.
Such hypocritical talk from Ant. Anytime opie was out for the day, he would always go on about how he’s not a break guy, he’s the fun guy! And never takes calls because they offer nothing(which they usually dont). Then defends him here when those 2 things are what opie is known for. What about when Ant would get angry at opie because opie would always bring up the fact that Ant was slightly late for the show, thus letting management know he was late, when they didnt need to know that shit
As much as I like to crap on Opie, I think they were being genuine here. Ant and Jimmy are reactionary comedians. Both need someone else to guide the conversation and they play off of it (usually with Ant making a comment). Opie worked in that role, but was very unfunny and self-conscious about it and drained the energy out of bits with his ridiculous interjections (which is why this channel exists), but someone like him was needed on a 4 hour show to move it along. You could see how he contributed to the show when Ant started doing shows alone, and you could see how he was more talented than Sam Roberts was when it came to the show with Jim Norton. Opie really got in his own way.
Reading through the comments…I feel like I’m the only one that think Ant and Jim cleverly shitted all over Opie this entire call. Jim is a TERRIBLE actor and he is clearly complimenting Opie tongue-in-cheek. Every compliment he stated is actually one of the ways Chip makes fun of Opie nowadays. Of course Ant masterfully picks up on this and works with Jim to keep this caller on the horn as long as possible…maximizing the number of direct opie insults (caller) and insults disguised as compliments (ant and Jim). This is a master class in shitting on somebody sitting next to you without them picking up on it. Rewatch in this context and tell me if I’m wrong. EDIT: I mean…look at the title of the video.
Ant and Jimmy were just simply avoiding conflict with the sociopathic female Greggshells. Opie literally tells Jimmy they aren't close enough friends and then punishes jim for not being a good friend for him.
There is a very tiny pube of truth in what they said about when Opie's not there. Sometimes Ant and Jim keep talking about one subject for over an hour and they get deep instead of funny. Opie's annoying and wrecks bits, but I think that's what forces Jim and Ant to keep coming up with new jokes. And when Opie acts like he's above laughing at certain things because he's trying to seem morally superior, Ant and Jim see right through that and they make funnier, more irreverent jokes about it, just to piss Opie off, and that's usually fuckin hilarious.
Opie is like the owner of the business that comes in and trys to work with the resturant employees during a rush. Which is nice for greeting guest and moving things along but as far as making and serving the food and keeping the bathrooms clean he is pretty much useless. That isn't to say he didn't pick up the broom or make the french fries a few times. Ant and Jim were the chefs Opie hired and he should have been more OK with that decision.
They're not wrong about Opie here though. He's always been pretty smart with the albeit hacky radio bits. However, the gold of the show really did come from the hangouts and Opie was never funny enough to just shoot the shit and bust balls.
This entire "gaslighting" occurred the day after producer Ben Sparks was arrested for assault during the previous walk over. IMHO opie skirting the very limits of an ongoing lawsuit was very fine radio indeed.
I don’t think the caller realized that doing this made it worse for Ant.. it is a weird dynamic where Ant and Jimmy totally agree with the caller but can’t say it outright
Why is it always opie who is the one person who ALWAYS gets "singled- out" in these "divide- and- conquer" BS scenarios? Always "Sterin Da' Ship, Strait into a light house".Ugh
Opie the type of dude to destroy a whole radio program forcing everyone to loose their jobs if everyone around him admits that they dont like him and that he contributes nothing to the show.
I will say this. As unfunny as he is the Opester would move things along. Not always at the appropriate times but usually it was needed for the show to move on to something else. There are a few different nopie shows where Ant would tell the same stories about him as a kid or shit like that and it was funny but it would just go on and on so what Ant is saying is actually true
It must've been so hard for Anthony to pretend they needed opie Lol Yes How awful the show would've been if Patrice and Jimmy just kept going with hilarious bits Thank God , opie was there to cut off the hysterical rant to go to mike in jersey But seriously How many times did opie feel left out When Jimmy Anthony or a Patrice would be dying laughing and he'd interrupt them with a " let's go to the phones " Brian !! In Massachusetts!! " Opies ego probably cut short hundreds of funny bits and stories
Ant and Jim are being honest here. They couldn't do it without Opie. Ant has no original ideas, just politics talk. Jim is too lazy to put on a decent show every day.
Yeah i agree. Yes Opie was annoying but he needed to stop sometimes subjects because i remember listening to a race talk between Anthony and Patrice that went on for whole show for 3 hours... It became so tiring even though it was amazing first an hour but later they didnt have much to come up with... Even though i really enjoyed the subject and all... But it just goes on and on... Just one subject whole time
@@jorgovan-ni9kz They are the laziest mfers in entertainment HOWEVER Opie doesn't have some magical special talent for changing subjects. They could've replaced him with a 1000 guys more likeable and funnier to do that job (and for cheaper).
@D Ceased hahahah... That hold on joke about Opie is still funny... I would just get annoyed sometimes with Opie and the way he thinks about marriage and love when talking to Patrice... Or that Patrice scared him... Ugh man.... Like Patrice used to say:"Why would you say that Opie?" Hahaha
@D Ceased what i sincerely believe is that show would have been better with opie still doing the lets change subjects, no callers interrupting though, just him saying lets change subject, buuut without mic... So u dont have to listen to his horseshit jokes that were as bad as mine are... Like just give hints to Ant and Jim and other guests on the show when its needed to change topic so audience doesnt get bored... That's it... But him with mic on... And his sarcastic laugh when he makes a joke that doesnt land just to not feel like a smashed potato for those bad jokes, like come on man... Admit it.... But hey it is what it was :D
"They couldn't do it without Opie." You know how we KNOW this is wrong. Jim and Sam is still going strong on Sirius and Compound Media is doing great. Meanwhile, dipsh*t is making videos in his car talking about his parking situation and grasping at straws on tiktok. Just look at the view counts. Nice try, Opie. Eat another booger. 🤣🤣🤣
I completely agree with Anthony in this. I've come to appreciate opie's skills. He's not necessarily funny, he's not one of the guys all the time, he's not always the sharpest, but he does a producer's job and that's a huge part of what made this show great. Anthony was their big hitter, he could hit home runs all day but you need somebody who could turn this into a show. That's what Opie did; it's why Anthony's still funny, but his show kind of sucks; it's just a rant echo chamber. And Opie can be a producer all day, but he has nothing interesting to say. Jimmy is just fucked up little characters now and a decent radio show with Sam; he was on his way to being really big, but he's just retreated. This show was so much more than the sun of it's parts. Anthony was the big hitter, Patrice was the fucking superstar, jimmy is the funny little goblin, the cellar crowd guests were the shit, but Opie kept it all moving and cohesive. I wish they'd figure it out and get back together. Patrice was such a big part of the magic, but there was still so many great moments even without him.
Absolutely right. I discovered O&A on YT a year ago, and to me, Opie plays a big part in why the show works. I cant understand the hate in these comments.

His best comeback to Anthony's weak-sauce defence of Opie should have been "I'll call in again in 2020".
Ant and Jim having these arguments ready is suspicious. Sounds like they've had to stroke Opie's ego like this 5000 times off-air

I would love for Jim and Anthony to sit down and listen to this clip of themselves and see what their opinion is today 🤔
On the phone we have Nostradamus....

I can just picture the grins on their faces as they spout all this nonsense
I feel like Jimmy and Ant are absolutely being smart asses here. Lol
The only time opie made me laugh is when he bullied Joe Piscopo over the phone.

Bobo had more talent than Opie.
The final irony is out of all the audio you have to edit Opie out of this is the only audio you don’t, he just sits there sulking, pouting.

Anthony was the big hitter, Patrice was the fucking superstar, jimmy is the funny little goblin, the cellar crowd guests were the shit, but Opie kept it all moving and cohesive. I wish they'd figure it out and get back together. Patrice was such a big part of the magic, but there was still so many great moments even without him.
Absolutely right. I discovered O&A on YT a year ago, and to me, Opie plays a big part in why the show works. I cant understand the hate in these comments.
