I've been a huge fan of Opie and Anthony's radio show ever since I found them back in 2000 on a streaming feed on the internet. Back then they had yet to be syndicated. I was hooked from that day right up until today, where you can hear their show on SiriusXM Satellite Radio. They broadcast on XM channel 103 and Sirius channel 206.
So funny.. I laugh so hard at this and it was the pinnacle of a time long gone. Let me say who I am.. I'm Trevize.. Guild Leader of Cats in Hats at the time and the leader from the beginnings for about 15 years. When we kicked this..... player.. it was a group (officer) decision, it wasn't just Lern.. Tho... he lol... was the messenger. Anthony was funny as hell. He was a load of laughs in guild chat. But OMG he sucked as a player and when we needed to focus and try and defeat new content he was a crazy bad distraction. He had no real interest in playing his character in any serious manner. He was purely comic relief. He started crossing the line when he became a drama queen demanded that he come on raids that he 100% wasn't geared for and all he did was screw around. I was happy to keep him in guild until he become a drama queen and at that point it was either chill out or get out. He chose get out. It makes for a great radio show tho! I laugh my ass off at this broadcast all the time. We had many celebrities in Cats in Hats and he was just 1 of many. I truly miss those days of EverQuest.
I was telling this story to some friends and one of them linked me this video that they found. This was a long time ago but I don't remember him causing any kind of drama, I barely even noticed he was in the guild. He never raided and I don't think he even played all that much at all, took him 1 year to get to 53 and I think Ted helped him get a lot of those last levels. I had no idea who he was or cared that he was some minor celebrity on the east coast. Honestly the only thing I remember about the whole situation clearly was Tedule and Terok being pissed that he was kicked and blaming Lern for it. -Vaul/Fabel of CiH
For about 20 years in Chicago this was a recurring headline year after year. Baby Jesus was commonly stolen from manger scenes and found later converted into a bong.
I NEVER got roped in. I never thought he was funny. People would tell me I didn't understand what a comic genius he was because he made so much up right in his head. That didn't sway me because he was just making up unfunny things.
33:35 Them playing “I Lie In The Bed I Make” during the final break before they were busted for the joke was oddly fitting in hindsight given that they were fired for this
Black earl is a disgrace to his race. Total bad joke that is reality. Beyond pathetic. O&A crew passing him along to Ron n fez was the only thing humorous about this dimwit!
I remember my friend's stepdad bringing us to Red Sox games back in '98 and 99 when we were in middle school, and he would always be listening to this radio show in the afternoon on the way to Fenway, we lived in Manchester New Hampshire so it was like a 45-minute drive and I used to wonder who it was, then 7 years later while I was working in college overnight delivering newspapers I was listening to Opie and Anthony on XM radio. I realized early on that those were the same guys I was listening to on WAAF when I was a kid. So cool how everything comes full circle like that.
I grew up in Delaware. Worked at a grocery store. They made me clean up dead mice in the meat room and other nasty jobs. I think they were trying to get me to quit. I was too baked to know what was going on. I finally got pissed enough to steal an entire box of 10 packs of the full size Reese's cups. Hid it in another box and snuck it up to the break room where I broke it down and crammed it all in my locker. Took me two days of completely packing my bookbag ( I was still in high school) full and walking home to get it all out of there. Not to mention walking to school in the morning with an empty bookbag, twice, and having not even a pencil because my books were still in the locker because I didn't have room for both. I ate, gave away, threw away Reese's cups for an entire summer. I had my dresser drawers full, a hole in my box spring also full. I never got caught, but I still can't eat Reese's today, so I think I payed dearly. Two years later I heard this on the radio and couldn't stop laughing at him and myself. Killer story Hammer!!
