Pre-show with Sam Roberts
Start of broadcast
- We're off with Sam Roberts. The pre-show was apparently last minute, the crowd is enthused as there is none: https://twitter.com/notsam/status/360700525433470976
- Quick recap of yesterday's show: the comedians were all great but Sam credits Joe's admission of wanting to suck dick as the show stealer.
- Erock is in studio. Troy says Joe is uninteresting so all he has is sucking dick talk. On air fight later?
- Sam breaks that Just for Laughs is a good place to see comedians. Sal talks over ISDN, the phones are up.
- In studio today: Colin Quinn, Marc Maron, Bob Kelly, Joe DeRosa, Jimmy Carr (!), Chris DeStefano and Judah Friedlander. Good lineup.
- Caller wants to know if Travis' wife will be on the show. Reminder of yesterday when Riley laughed at Uncle Paul. Riley has never met Jimmy, but has met all of his characters.
- Another caller, agrees with Troy and hates Joe. Sam says this is unfair without Joe in studio. Stupid, dumb Larry calls in; I hope the God he so vehemently believes in kills in him with a thunderbolt.
- Sam questions if Anthony will be here today 'cos of last night: drinking, casino, etc. Audience coming in.
- Keith the Cop is in studio, he doesn't like the Shit Show. Says Anthony will have some good material.
- Opie & Anthony shows don't attract many girls. Sam found one. She's not a fan, her boyfriend is.
- New photos of yesterday are being uploaded to The Opie & Anthony Facebook page: https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/74616_10151720572415762_1358038939_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/521634_10151720572665762_89687033_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1000873_10151720572745762_619514549_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1003317_10151720572440762_1585169145_n.jpg
- Sam works the audience as more and more people turn up. Photo from @DalexMTL showing Sam broadcasting: https://twitter.com/DALEXMTL/status/360709619435319296
- We've found a female Opie & Anthony fan. Who is she? Where did she come from? Why is she Canadian?
- Another photo from @DalexMTL showing Troy going around the audience: https://twitter.com/DALEXMTL/status/360711113194745857
- Bathroom troubles with Roland and Erock last night. Roland got locked in the bathroom. He did a shit.
- Female audience member questioned. Has never heard the show before and is very tired, she feels bad.
- Erock is brought out, says Anthony is not at the hotel yet. Erock saw Joe last night, he was drunk.
We're off, with the Metallica version of Ecstasy of Gold...
First Break
- And we are live. Anthony is here, he survived the casino. He woke up at 6.40am. Opie was nearly arrested for talking to hookers, they were cracked out, pregnant and thin. Oh Canada!
- One of the hookers said she was the mother of a popular R&B singer. Who could this be? Jimmy pegged the location where Opie was, it was "Club Soda".
- Opie played a video of R&B singer, she's not that well known it seems. Opie got back around 11pm.
- Tom Papa has gone Hollywood: patterned shirts, new gait. Anthony picked up the dinner tab yesterday. Gary (Radio Wizard) made the staff pay for sandwiches. What a cheap, bald man.
- Sam, Troy, Gary, Roland, Erock, Mark Zito bought said sandwiches. They will be reimbursed. Gary is poor.
- Anthony went to the casino around midnight to "play some cards". He went from 2k, to 12k, to nothing: https://twitter.com/AnthonyCumia/status/360643563735879680
- A new album on the Opie & Anthony Facebook page is being filled: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151720579160762.1073741831.8637380761&type=3
- The broadcasters: https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/972245_10151720637250762_487630661_n.jpg; the audience: https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/972250_10151720637260762_816784829_n.jpg.
- Colin Quinn is in studio. We all missed him yesterday, he was busy working on his keynote.
- His writing process was interrupted on the plane due to Jimmy's farts. Everyone noticed.
- Colin was offered the part of Scott Evil in Austin Powers, he turned it down even though he didn't have to audition and Mike Myers gave him the part. He was scared and arrogant (his words).
- Reminded of Colin's Crocodile Dundee II rewrite, he regrets not taking the part in Austin Powers.
- Strip club talk, Colin remembers some on Long Island. They tried to be turned into 'Gentlemen Clubs'.
- Last night Colin did his Unconstitutional show, a club show and a gala. He's a popular man.
- Colin is laughing at Bobby's misfortune yesterday. Jimmy said he shit in Bobby's toilet and left it there, he regrets not shitting in the bath instead. He arranged the used toilet paper to frame the shit.
- It's the Midnight Surprise tonight, Colin ruined the surprise: he's a part of it. Back to strip clubs...
- Jimmy talks about a pilot he did which involved a chimp, he went to a strip club afterwards: "It was great, they were all broke [..] they were all desperate and dirty." Terrific.
- During WNEW, Jimmy fucked a women in the bathroom during an commercial break. Colin brings up Sandy Kane's "What are you, gay?" line. He loves that one.
- Opie brings up the time Sandy Kane sued them and fucked with them by not turning up to court.
- Guy and girl friends from the audience are spoken to, he's promptly called a faggot.
- Jimmy wants to go to lunch with this girl, and go hat shopping. Respectful Jimmy coming up. He calls the date "tentative" and goes fishing for other girls in the audience...
- They find a girl called Kelly, she's a fan of the show and Jimmy. This looks promising. Jimmy can't flirt.
- Opie wants to do a "hack" dating game. Katrina and Kelly are put on the couch. Questions are coming...
- Question #1: "What would the perfect first date with me be?" Girl #1 likes gambling and drinking, Girl #2 likes beer darts and LA Guns.
- The dating game taking place via @DalexMTL: https://twitter.com/DALEXMTL/status/360732585116172288 and the O&A Facebook page: https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/969222_10151720719410762_1880960725_n.jpg
- Jimmy asks questions about pubic hair, Anthony gets right to the point and asks about their public hair.
- Kelly takes care of things, Katrina is shaved. Jimmy likes hair. He's a weird one that Jimmy.
- Questions from the audience are fielded. One asks how awkward it is for the guy friend, one asks if they would tweak Jimmy's nipples. Jimmy asks if they like spanking guys. Anthony asks them to rate themselves how crazy they are at sex. Katrina: 8. Kelly: 7.
Second Break
- The Gary Busey bit is played during the break, CokeLogic's animation of it: http://youtu.be/hh63dX-UQwQ
- Chris DeStefano in studio, he's questioned as to why he didn't talk much yesterday.
- Chris says Bobby was aggressive yesterday, everyone agrees. And DeRosa was obsessed with dick sucking.
- Turns out, Chris can be aggressive too: he hit someone with a baseball bat, broke a chair over someones head for laughing at him after crying at 9/11. His father met with school principle, played the "raped in the ass in jail" card. Didn't work. Threatened to break principles knee caps. They became friends eventually.
- The Cannibal Cop was in Chris' class at school, he mentions some foreshadowing incidents.
- Caller calls in claiming to know Chris, he doesn't recognise him. Chris was on Letterman.
- Photo of Colin and Chris on the studio sofa: https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/946290_10151720764320762_1672196995_n.jpg
- Chris met Tracy Morgan and gave him some advice about how to keep pussy wet. That Tracy!
- Marc Maron is now in studio, the audience gives him a round of applause. Marc is now "that asshole on television". He's still engaged, it's not going too well. Uh oh.
- Turns out guys aren't as interested in weddings as girls, especially seeing as this is Marc's third.
- Anthony talks the issues behind inviting people to weddings. Now there's child talk. Spoiler: Anthony doesn't want any, ever. Will this third wedding pan out? Probably not.
- Daddy issues foster crazy girlfriends, makes a better pairing for fucked up comics. Story from Anthony: father walked out on a girl when she was 13/14 on Christmas. Happy time of year.
- Do the Dating Game girls have any daddy issues? Girl 1: father walked out at 19, cheated on mum. Girl 2: he's a guy's guy, still married to mother. Anthony asks if her step brothers want to fuck her. Let's hope!
- Ass fucking talk, a tabasco joke from Jimmy. Jimmy likes getting pissed on. Girl's piss sounds weird.
- Photos of the two ladies with Jimmy: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1004812_10151720764310762_902755604_n.jpg
- Audience member lives in 'The Konk', Colin appreciates this reference. Long Island talk. He has a personalised licence plate, must mean he's human garbage.
- Anthony's Montreal analysis: it's quiet, peaceful, no crazy people, no horn honking. Colin said this politeness will end at the Midnight Surprise tonight.
- Chris' girlfriend was harassed by a homeless man, nearly kicked his dog dead. Marc is too old to fight.
- Girlfriends that provoke jealousy aren't warranted. Boyfriends don't pay attention sometimes.
- Sam says they have to break. What a kill joy. Marc, Colin and Chris are sticking around.
Third Break
- We're back live. In studio recap: Opie, Anthony, Jimmy, Marc, Colin, Chris and a dwarf (Brad Williams).
- Brad says other dwarfs picketed him once, Jimmy asks about his comedy. Brad says he has to reference he's a dwarf, but his main act is observational. The dwarf jokes are flying.
- Opie inquires about dwarf dick. Average, but looks huge on him. So there's something.
- What's it like living as a dwarf? Everyone is interested (who wouldn't be). Little People Big World does not like Brad because he says 'midget', Opie loves that show.
- Jimmy asks do the usual dwarf acting roles get tedious, Brad says Peter Dinklage is changing that.
- There's a hierarchy in the dwarf world. Opie brings up the crying stripping dwarf story. Brad interjects with his own dwarf stripper story.
- Colin calls out Jimmy for suggesting dwarfs are to blame for their own place in the world.
- Marc Maron leaves, Judah Friedlander and Joe DeRosa are waiting in the wings. Judah joins the show.
- Judah talks about the underlying French and English language war in Montreal. Not sure if he's right.
- Comedy issue: club patrons receiving bills before the comics have finished, Judah wants to end this.
- Anthony says he commends Judah for not focusing on cancer. Photo from @DalexMTL of the show at the moment: https://twitter.com/DALEXMTL/status/360763389020082180
- Colin chimes in, talks about the problems with comedy clubs. Probably material from his keynote.
- Last night, Anthony had fun with a French translation app. What happened to the dating game?
- Guess who's back? It's only Joe DeRosa! He tells a story about a Bar Mitzvah gig he did once.
- Joe mentions Colin's jab from earlier. Anthony brings up his casino visit. Honeymooners reference. Woo!
- Erock in studio. Terrific Kool-Aid Man joke from Anthony. Erock saw Joe last night... Says Joe was drunk, and said "There's a lotta stink in this room". Tries to play it down. Joe acted like a tool it seems.
- Some photos from Facebook: Judah and Colin on the couch: https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/1006287_10151720879710762_945288225_n.jpg and Brad: https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1045010_10151720858960762_1121128555_n.jpg
- It's mutiny, Joe and Erock turn on each other. Fat, lonely and lazy jokes. Opie wants to hear from Denny.
- Sam says we need to break again. Colin is leaving. Everyone else is staying. Where's Jimmy Carr?!
Fourth Break
- The fourth, and final break, has begun. The show is joined by Bobby Kelly, he's taking pre-emptive strikes against any fat jokes. I think he's being touchy.
- Turns out Colin didn't leave. Bobby and Joe unleash dwarf jokes. Brad is funny. Chip pipes up.
- The Dating Game will (or won't) be finished by the end of the show. Judah dislikes dishonesty.
- Cannabis laws in Canada are being discussed, legal or not? Under 3g and they won't arrest you apparently.
- Jimmy has characters, did you know? They are listed. Bobby is infuriated they are acknowledged. Joe brings up Valley Jim, no-one is a fan. No-one. Ted Sheckler is brought up; poor, underused Ted.
- Chip asks if James Lipton ever "knocked a [whores] tits off". Who knows. Probably? Valley Jim speaks up, gets a round of accused. These Canadians, huh?
- The Dating Game is continued. A quick recap of the girls: Kelly and Katrina. Here they are with Jimmy: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1004812_10151720764310762_902755604_n.jpg
- Colin trashes the Dating Game, I'm inclined to agree. Nothing was accomplished. Can Jimmy save it? Chip is smooth with the ladies. Anthony asks if they go on dates easily.
- Photo via @DalexMTL of everyone on the show right now: https://twitter.com/DALEXMTL/status/360774693655019523
- Joe asks if the impromptu dates ended with sex. They say it was just a friendly lunch. Bobby asks if they see plastic wrap in a guy's bathroom, would they shit or leave the house?
- This leads Jimmy on to say he loves being pissed on and paying for it. Girl who hasn't heard the show before feels sorry for Jimmy, that's not good dating material.
- Girl who has heard the show is asked if sex is a possibility, Jimmy says there's no chance of them cumming even if they say yes. Neither of them watch porn.
- Jimmy asks if either of them have ever had a threesome. Clever. One has, one hasn't. Judah is getting annoyed at the indirect answers.
- We have a winner! Jimmy chooses... Kelly! Which one is that? I don't know. Chip ruins the mood, again.
- Another shot of the hosts and guests via the O&A Facebook page: https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/249021_10151720930460762_1533667797_n.jpg
- Jimmy with Kelly via @DalexMTL: https://twitter.com/DALEXMTL/status/360778034032304128
- Opie, Anthony and Jimmy thank the audience, Montreal and all of the comics who appeared today.

DeleteThanks for posting! I immediately skipped the Sam Roberts intro and his nasally bitch voice.
ReplyDeleteThen you missed when Sam talks to me
Deletewhich one? Don't tell me you were one of the buddies that drove 7 hours with $60. btw, Sammy was great as usual... so was troy
Deletewooo, easter egg.
DeleteDALEX, you're really tall hipster lookin' fellow, eh? I was the guy with the dark red shirt, early 20's. Front seat.
ReplyDeletei find it hilarious that sam broadcasts to the world more or less, and he tweets "wake up and listen to me" and he gets..... 4 retweets 7 favorites.
ReplyDeletei love that he's such a hard working piece of shit. it's hilarious.
Sam is a tragic figure. He works so hard and has so many irons in so many smoldering fires. He is always on the main show and probably easily the 4th mic after Jim. He gets zero respect from listeners, his peers, or his betters.
DeleteIt sounds like he doesn't get paid much either (at least by NY standard of living). I wonder if he gets paid for the shit show. I think Jim hinted once that he does the advice show as a way to get more money.
I remember the discussions on how Nagle Rock makes so much more and that seems like a travesty. He is a guy with no ambition beyond getting in the door at a job and then coasting. I'm not really sure what he does behind the scenes...but he is a charisma black hole and is never funny even when the guys put him over and set him up for a comeback. And no, I don't count eating cinnamon and making puking noises comedy.
it's probably that erock is perceived as being a nice guy, and sam isn't. erock thinks nothing of taking advantage of situations that he might not deserve. i bet he puts himself over pretty well with others, and they don't call him out on it. because maybe they don't see him as being deceptive.
Deletei will say, erock is the most normal guy there. that time that danny got hit by production made by lil nicky a few years back, danny got all huffy and completely went off on erock. and erock just kept calmly saying how danny can't take his turn in the barrel and erock always does, which is true.
everybody is unstable in some kind of way, but erock is not. sam is a chiseler, jimmy is a sex crazed maniac, opie and roland have emotional issues, troy is an aged hipster, anthony has a host of issues, travis had a mom that craved rabbi dick.... erock is the normal guy, and normal guys aren't charismatic on the air. and a bit lazy.
There are plenty of examples of people in the world (but let me limit the focus to the O&A universe) doing good work and busting their ass and getting nowhere. ERock just kinda schlubbed his way into the position, but he was working in radio (not exactly making waves) before this. I guess ERock is the one guy Opie brought into the business that hasn't turned on him yet. It seems like his ambition was to just get in the door and do as little as possible, as opposed to a Mark Zito who seems to never stop brownnosing on his quest to be in management. I guess that is hard work, but does all that working at climbing result in anything productive (if he actually had talent to produce anything in the first place)?
DeleteIf you want some true tragic tales take a look at all the people on the Ron and Fez show that get passed over and pushed out while Fez sits there locked up 99% of the time and is just weird the remaining 1% when Ron prods him into speaking.
What do you think these comedians actually get paid yearly? I always wondered how financially successful the non-arena filling comedians were. The comment that derosa made about his kindle made me cringe at his potential annual pull. I'm sure burr does well for himself, but what about norton, kelly, and vos? Jim florentine still asks for donations during his (excellent) podcast.
DeleteYou always hear about a lot of these guys having roommates, and didn't Jim live with his parents until he was 30 (which may just be his weirdness)? I imagine they make most of their money on the road and doing college and corporate gigs. I figure if those guys were on the road a lot they would be calling into O&A more to plug, although they do go through periods when they do call in.
DeleteJoe Derosa would probably make more money using the time he spends on comedy and instead begging for change on the streets.
Here is an interesting article on salaries. They have Kurt Metzger on their making $60K which probably doesn't go that far in NY. For most comics, it looks to be a matter of having a lot of sources. Jim has radio shows, Leno, weekly local gigs, occasional road gigs, and comedy specials.
Deletehttp://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/04/arts/stand-ups-and-their-salaries.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0
theres nothing more retarded than reading 2 losers opinion on lives/work they've never experienced. its amazing that close to 20 years of these guys being on air and you 2 still don't get it. sam a tragic figure? derosa should beg for money on the street? florentine doesn't make much so he asks for donations? lmao
Deletederosa probably to be fair makes less money than you but works 100000 times less... podcasters regardless of money ask for donations because they might not be f'd sinking in their own cash for free content... for the people by the people kind of thing..
these comics work constantly and the fact that they don't call in to o&a doesn't mean anything.. could be the show is too busy or they are in a location that theyre better off calling another show.. jesus you 2 are fucking retarded lmaooo
no you're the fucking dummy. i don't know shit about the entertainment industry so i was curious, thats why asked. if you don't ask you dont learn. I would bet all but opie and anthony make less money than me but i don't give a shit to compare earnings against my own. just curious as to the industry itself. Do i have to listen for a decade to get a fuckin answer? i would hope not! So I asked here, to shorten my apparent wait time.
DeletePeople approach me all the time with investment ideas, lately podcasts have come up frequently. Not knowing about that industry, I inquired here. At what ranking on itunes do the advertisers start to pay attention to you? That guy from hoarders claimed to make low six figures per show on o&a. yet the much more interesting florentine doesn't get advertisers? I hear most people don't make shit off the actual podcast and use it primarily for self promotion. Was the guy from hoarders exagerating? fuckin christ Booger, LOL at people that try and learn something new without listening for decades. That will get you far!
I was addressing the dummy that said the things I quoted in what I wrote.. you sir are an ass
DeleteDalex, will there be the midnight show uploaded?
ReplyDeleteDALEX, thanks for the uploads. I hope no one blows up your spot. Do u think those folks would get mad if they found out what u really do? Naughty
ReplyDeleteBrad, I wonder the same thing but with him being out of the country I can only hope that it makes it more difficult for lawyers to do what they do.
ReplyDeleteI hope rape is also legal in Canada.
DeleteJimmy Carr, as in English Jimmy Carr?
DeleteJimmy Carr rules! Does he ever tour or perform inside the United States?
DeleteI know most people dont like Mr.derosa. I have to agree, I never found him funny on the show. I've never heard his standup so I cant really judge him fairly.
ReplyDeleteWas it me or did it seem like some guys were giving Joe sympathy laughs from the boys today.
They have to be just nice enough to keep people coming back. It is like an abused wife and husband dynamic.
DeleteDid you know Joe is not only a comedian but also a director and a musician? If he was good at any of these things he would be considered a triple threat. He should stick to what he is best at....or just kill himself, I'm largely indifferent to the matter.
Actually, I like Joe's comedy sketches.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4DB_93-U3U
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IABSZUW6oVI
...but I hate his music.
http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/salsawindfall
yeah, it's like they invite him on to redeem himself, only to fail more horribly each time.
DeleteHis stand up sucks!!
DeleteWhy some comedians and not others?
ReplyDeleteit was mentioned that jeffrey ross was at the fest, yet wasn't on the show. I would think he would fit well with the show. Anthony Jeslenick advertises on the show yet doesn't come in? what gives
i'm sure you can only fit so many people on the show, and every comedian has a busy sched all by themselves. a festival must be a bunch of chaos and hustle. so you're just lucky to get who you can get.
Deleteand like jimmy says, a bunch of those guys are all business first and friends second. they're out doing their hustle first.
I fucking hate Chris Destefano. He did not deserve a place on the show, barely took advantage of it at all. What a douche. NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR FUCKING DAD!!!!!!!!! I hope your plane crashes.
ReplyDeleteI hope his plane crashes too, but I hope noone gets hurt. I just want him to have something interesting to talk about the next time he is on O&A.
DeleteIn fairness. They asked him about his dad.
Delete
