Brad Thor in studio
Kick off today on car rides and long trips when tired. Kids consuming at the beach house. Getting back into the Zimmerman trial. The differences of each generation. Extended trial discussion. Jenny Hutt phoner.

Op pulls the Morning Mash-up in studio for a quick chat. Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger get married. We get a music break. Video of a car crashing into a gas pump setting a person on fire. 

Andrew Dice Clay on Arsenio Hall. The interns make an appearance today. Brad Thor drops by to discuss his new book 'Hidden Order' and violence in Chicago.

Jim and Amy Schumer will be on the season premiere of the Jeselnik Offensive tonight! @ 10:00pm. 

Sam Roberts hosts the Shit Show and probably talks about ICP again.

  1. Thank you sir recently found this site and I love the quick posts and all the videos that u connect. I pay for sirius and everything about their app sucks. So I appreciate everything you do.

  2. Listening to Opie doing trying to do characters is the most embarrassing thing I've had to do all day. And I had to drop a stool sample off at my Dr's office this morning to the cute receptionist.

  3. Finally finished listening to yesterday's show this morning . . . what a fucking drag. Opie needs to have a talk with Ant, put a time limit on this political crap. Do they need to be 100% goofy at all times? Of course not. But I'm getting real tired of guns, guns, guns. And I own a dozen myself.

    1. Best comment in the entire blog post. Thank you. The political stuff is starting to become a crutch rather than something that Ant can be funny with. He's too serious with that shit now.

      I haven't listened to the show yet, but I could still care less about the stupid ass Zimmerman case or what's going on with guns anymore.

    2. Ya it's getting ridiculous.

    3. only because the whole zimmerman situation is ramping up.... when these things come to a head, the tone of their show follows along. not just political things, but big news stories of the day. i mean, when michael jackson died they did what everybody did and talked about it to exhaustion.

      and they are the ONLY reason i've ever heard of the case of the black marines killing their white superior officer and his black wife. the ONLY people i've ever heard even mention it. good on them, i say.

  4. Love the new layout. Even quite like the pictures of albino Opie in 15 years time and the tattooed murderer. They seem appropriate. But is there any way you could take down the shot of sweet Samuel. He looks like Jabba the Hutt's lizard monkey in Jedi and his demeanour in general is just extremely punchable. I can't afford a new computer right now.

    1. Didn't mean Opie always looks like an albino. Sure he's ginger, and would probably burst into flames if he stayed in the sun too long, but that overhead lighting would make Bill Duke look pale.

    1. Uh oh! Not good. What did Ope do now exactly before I spend any time listening today? I'm still watching a movie.

    2. Opie truly is a hole.

      Literally no voice talent at all...

      Delete
  6. Time for faggot Opie to retire. I find myself fast-forwarding the show when he starts talking about himself or his family. Kind of funny, because I remember they used to rag on Stern for doing the same thing.

    1. ive been fast forwarding Ants redundant zimmerman trial talk. its the same shit for an hour day after day.

      Delete
    2. Oh, but that's how he keeps the show moving along. Without the Opster, the show would fall apart. Isn't that what we're always being told by his jock sniffers?

      Delete
    3. So why did Op introduce it as a topic again?

      Delete
    4. they have nothing else, no prep work.. its easy to just let ant rant for about an hour.

      Delete
    5. Ant's a pretty funny fucker and always has been, but it would be nice if there were more bits and prep shit for him and Jimmy to riff on. Angry, ranting Ant is funny but in moderation so it doesn't become too mean spirited and old.

  7. God, I wanted to punch that flag-waving cunt Brad Thor in his Freedom Fry-eating face.

    1. Haha yeah who the fuck was that guy. At one point he suggested that the US should have hold Iraq's oil fields hostage until the war was paid off.

  8. Love the Quincy talk, every time.

  9. Ugh... another hour of White Guilt Liberal Jimmy and Judge Jury Executioner Ant debating speculation while Fence Sitting Op sits in silence. How fucking redundant this show is becoming due to this trial, can't wait until the average interns come in so the fawning can begin.

    Thanks, Dalex.

    1. Gotta love how all these people that shit on "conspiracy theorists" for becoming living room crime scene investigators HAVE ALL DONE THE SAME FUCKING THING!!!!

      Fuck this ridiculous trial, holy shit. 36mins in and I'm seriously wondering how the hell I missed this all last week. It is nothing short of maddening.

      Delete
    2. If Opie directs the show. than how about Change the subject when ant and jimmy do the same gotdamn hour every day about the same shit. I want to hear funny not a serious fucking discussion for the 1000 time

      Delete
    3. Exactly, Jordan. I mean we can see Ant talk about this shit nonstop on his Twitter. Why drag the show down with that? I also agree that it is Op's responsibility to make sure that a topic doesn't go on for too long. I think they're trying to fill as much time as possible in the 4 hour period that they do a show counting commercials.

      Delete
    4. Go back and listen to who brings up the topic. After entralling us for 10 minutes with the stick, the master of radio prys open the old can of worms and sits back for some quality sudoku time.. and to think I actually imagined a real podcast/internet show from Ants house. I'm a stupid Bison.

      Delete
    5. Hey, I'm willing to admit when Op annoys me.. did yesterday bitching about a live show at the Gathering on a Friday and did today. Are you douches willing to admit that a show with just Ant and Jim arguing nothing but pure speculation also isn't fun? Because Op barely said boo in that entire 20 minute-odd debate yet somehow you STILL blame him for "not changing the topic".

      But I see how Ant's political ravings and Jim's white guilt liberalism is all Op's fault.. O_o Riiiiiiiight.

      Delete
    6. You're basically admitting a show with or without opie is essentially the same. Where does this magical talent for controlling the show appear?

      At least Ant and Jimmy have opinions buddy. Whats yours?

      Delete
    7. Yep, it was Op who brought up the Zimmerman topic around the 20 minute mark. I think it was to remind Ant to go into another long discussion about that case. Bison has a point there.

      I think Ant is so invested in the topic that he might have gone a little bit into it anyway especially if something major happened to him on Twitter.

      Delete
    8. You honestly think that Zimmerman shit would've been the same length without Op there? C'mon, Bison... I know you aren't that stupid.

      I'm admitting that Op ain't perfect nor have I ever claimed he is and I did say in my very first comment that Op was a fence sitter but the other two have their faults that none of you seem to want to admit and they absolutely 100% stay on the one topic for a damn sight longer when Op isn't there.

      Again, I know you aren't that stupid.. buddy.

      Delete
    9. It could be a pre-emptive strike to get the zimmerman shit out of the way. I dont think opie could tell or ask ant to cut it short since its such a big thing for him right now. I'm not exactly an opie supporter but that stuff rob bartlett said about him a couple of weeks ago made me think. At any rate i think opie hit his peak at around 2009-2011. Him and Ant have botn improved tremendously since they started at XM in 2004 while jmmy I'm still not sure about.

      Delete
    10. Jimmy was at his best when he was able to do more than one character rather than just Chip Chipperson. Valley Jim was one of his more recent ones that I really liked.

      Delete
    11. Maybe. Maybe it goes for over an hour like a previous time in which Op was also there, or maybe it goes for a lot less since it was Op who brought it up on this show again in the first place.

      I would think considering the verdict is read this week and there could be mass riots, it's worth discussing every day until it's over.

      You say he's a fence sitter, I say he's too stupid/disintested to inform himself enough to be capable of having an opinion.

      Do Jimmy and Ant hammer a subject when it's just them? Yes. Do they sometimes not know when to move on? Yes. Are there still hilarious moments of comedic brilliance? You betcha.

      I am perfectly capable of acknowledging (and have before) the faults of Ant and Jim, but the difference is they don't try to direct the show with Opie there. Does Opie try to make jokes with Ant and Jim there? Yes. Does Opie step on jokes/answer jokes (the two things he insults retards for doing)? Yes.

      Opie is the same shitty hack he was before he met Ant, the show became great around him. One day you'll understand this.

  10. "I fast forward this...". "me? well, since you asked; I fast forward..." BORING! BE MORE FUNNY!!

  11. Jesus ant we get it you think Zimmerman is "innocent". Do you have to waist an hour on it every fucking day. I punched out of this one.

    1. Good. When he is acquitted go stand and the street and tell the rioters your with them. They are sure to welcome you with open arms. It will be a melting pot of uneducated violence.

    1. Definitely caught it....Ant called him a miserable fuck....not sure what went on there..

    2. He wasn't at the Compound party which I found weird instantly. I guess Lil Ant and Big Ant had a falling out.

    3. Check Danny's last few tweets. They're all just bitchy comments about past and present staff. Then he mentions what ant said.

    4. Yeah just chckd that out. There's some shit slinging ....@dannyjross

    5. haha, i really wanted to know more.... though i can't quite tell if it's a serious squabble, or they're both just goofing on each other and pulling one on the listeners. you can call someone a miserable fuck in a friendly way. and he IS a miserable fuck after all. i'm sure he knows it.

      i did like danny, i found him funny and sharp. but he WAS a serious douche. big time.

  13. i've noticed lately that how the show is packaged changes from day to day. i personally prefer it when o&a and the shit show(or tjns) are together in 1 file. any chance you can start consistently putting this on the site again? i know i'm not the only quay who prefers 1 file. regardless, i really appreciate this site and all the hard work that goes into it.

  15. Wow! Brad Thor is one sheltered dude. America is "the freest nation in the world"? Sure it is, suuuuuuuure it is.

    How many rights have Americans thrown away so far while at war for the last 12yrs? I'm not saying Australia is any better, far from it, but walk outside and light a joint.. let me know how fucking free you are. LOL!!!

    1. I know... his contradictions were ridiculous. "America is the only free country in the world, all others are dictatorships or socialist." Then two minutes later he's talking about how the U.S. government is spying illegally on all of its own citizens.

      I'm from Canada ad I'm sure a lot of other international listeners were shaking their heads at that guy.

  16. I think Sam need to step it up with the gossiping. One of my favorite things they do from time to time is show drama. Who's in a fight with who, or who's not doing their job, who's showing up late. What happened to just bringing anyone in who walked by their door? That's where you get spontaneous entertainment in my view.

    Ant's rants get annoying. Especially when hes making the same points over and over. But Opie's the one feeding him calls from retards who dont know half as much about the case as Ant. Again, show prep. Haven't seen much since they got back from their vacation, but eh. They do a show 5 days a week and had a show for the ages last Friday.

    We get it: Opie's not funny with his voices. Fuck it, it's his bit to do them now. I don't get annoyed at people saying he's not funny, I understand that. And they aren't funny, or even original. But people who say he should leave the show don't make sense. No offense to Ant or Jim, but he's the only one who's regularly conscious about putting together a good show from top to bottom. The show has no real flow without him, and when it comes down to it, he's probably the most brutal and ruthless host when things seem to get uncomfortable for Ant or even Jim. And personally I think the candy crush bit is hilarious.

    I've only been listening regularly for the last 18 months, but not much has changed since I started listening. These people who complain about Ant's rants and Opie's uncomfortably bad voices are still listening? I don't get that either.

    1. Fair enough. I don't 'get' these grandiose "at the end of the day" posts weirdos do every now and then. To each their own.

      Delete
    2. Most people 'bitching' have listened far longer than 18 months.. try 5+ years. Much has changed, hardly for the better and most of it started at Sirius.

      I didn't mind Opie's bitching, I didn't mind Ant's political stuff. I didn't mind Jim's Liberal ovaries. All 3 are now very old.

  19. Lil' Jimmy and Amy Schumer did great on Jeselnik's show. Felt like I was watching a Tosh.0 knock off half the time. I haven't even heard of the show until recently.
