This one really threw me for a loop…. Jimmy, my love, annoyed me the whole time Opie, who everyone rips on, shows his talent by completely shutting off the other guys, in order to allow the caller to dig in deeper. He’s a really good leader here. Someone has to admit it.
As a beer drinking blue color working guy (a disgusting line) I fount Jimmy's baby boy stuff to have overstayed its welcome, but I certainly didn't find opie to bea leader, in fact I think Louis ck was far more poignant and handled it well from the begining. Mr ck was a mix of comedy and intelligence, and opie came across as schmarmy... granted he was better here than usual.
@@liquidmang do you listen to Jim and Sam?! I was just listening to a replay from the week in the car, and stepped in during “Ben” (not sure if it’s producer Ben or random caller), but he had some pretty good points about how much Jimmy has changed. He’s still my favorite comedian mostly bc I listen to him daily for 15 years and read his books, have them signed and met him a few times…. But wow he got laid into by Ben the caller…. It was hard to hear but also true..
This guy is one of the thousands of people to call over the years that lied about hating the show and still admitted they listen often to the show. These people wanted to do the show as their job. Going after Jimmy was usually a clear sign of it.
Hahaha I felt bad for him until I read this…. So true. The fact he doesn’t hang up, and stays quiet while being bashed, makes me think this is a bit…. Idk I’m not starting any controversy, just curious what others think His voice is so clear, they have all their ammo ready before taking his call…. Idk I’m on the fence
@@nimo517 its plausible its real, most of them are pretty off the cuff funny, and the disparity in their reactions makes me think real. Opie I know would occasionally take real complaint calls so the guys would validate his existence and the show. Also it was probably his way of "making the show seem real man" so I dont doubt it happened. Also the fact the guy implied he worked in the business or was at least an enthusiast makes me believe he may have been just looking for an argument and knew to not get himself kicked off with trampling over their replies. Its also possible he just wanted to stay on their air as long as possible, some people do achieve elation from negative interactions, and the longer it goes on the better it is for them. Id say its probably real, but there are other calls that id say seem suspect, and some we know are just fake. Eddy the murderer is one im suspicious of.
@@nimo517 no I dont think there’s any chance it’s a bit. It would be orchestrated much better and Jimmy wouldn’t repeat himself so much and Opie woulda played a big tough guy more. Once Jimmy came on they stopped doing those fake bits since he’d call them on it. People that think these are fake seem to forget that there are people this pathetic out there. Jim is a standup so he knows the protocol of dealing with hecklers.
@@Robb1977 eddy was a real caller lying about his history. There are staged calls that the show doesn’t know about, this guy was on his own or working with Opie.
@@nimo517 do you know if Colin has a podcast or anything I can check out. I’ve always really liked him but have trouble following where he’s at. I know he had a show on for awhile where he had comedians on and did a round table kind of thing but I was busy when it was out and couldn’t watch tv much. I have a lot more free time now. If you know the name of the show or anything else it would be helpful
@@BoqPrecision My opinion on Norton has changed in the last...2 plus years since this was written. But it doesn't keep snowflake culture from having an opinion on the internet, the only place that they have any clout, as they wax bad faith commentary from their friction-less universe where evolution is a myth.
You guys don’t like jimmy’s baby voice because you know it’s effective. Nothing cuts through a grown man like cooing at him like mother. It works in YT comments too.
It's annoying and devoid of humor. If you're going to be annoying and try to carry a bit for 20+ minutes, you should at least be funny, especially when those around you are able to elicit laughs without reverting to hackneyed schtick. A few minutes of that goes a long way. Talk about doosh chills...Jimmy can do better.
From everything I've heard it's just something they all did in the Cellar. Patrice, Vos, Bobby and Keith all did it too. It's impossible to know who started it but it's clear non of them stole it.
Although I don't want you be subjected to that nonsense but you have to hear Opie's show right now he just uses one fake voice after another. He's making Todd look good
I was a fan of Opie & Anthony since the day they started broadcasting on WAAF in Boston. The only time they ever had a hokey radio DJ voice is if they were mocking other station’s DJ’s…
Who says you have to be qualified to make fun of people on the radio? Says Louis ck, right before bashing someone because he thinks they aren’t qualified to make fun of things on the radio
@@tonychaez420Sexfood lol.. If they did, they wouldn't be those same annoying little bitch words. Is that the best you got? It's no wonder you're so easily amused...
Jimmy is so thin skinned that it takes away from his ability to be funny. He gets so defensive that he literally almost starts crying. CK is way funnier just by answering the "How are you guys?" seriously and ignoring the insult.
@Chris Terry he’s a psychopath fanboy, he, to this day, still calls into Jim and Sam sometimes, tho it’s more lighthearted these days, every time he called into OnA he bitched about the show, he has a memorable hateablility
Yeah I'm all for name-calling, but this was classic bullshit ad hominem from Jim. Didn't get one laugh from "baby boy" and just kept shouting it... The caller is a loser, but Jimmy was somehow more embarrassing.
Just shows what a child Jimmy is. "Baby boy" was pushed out a million times and wouldn't let him talk and his reasoning was because he keeps repeating himself. Child like behavior "baby boy".
@@wesley5729 You're not wrong. But it goes without saying that he definitely rode the O&A coat tails to personal success. Which is fine, why wouldn't he. But he would be a nobody with zero books written and a very modest stand up following. Maybe he'd be as far as Florentine is... Maybe. And that's giving him credit because Florentine is way funnier.
Anthony saying “he was always perfect in that way” talking about never using a radio voice. That’s hilarious considering he was doing a stern impression up until early XM
@@tonytomei1175 No, he used to talk like Howard. He also did an impression, but it was obvious he looked up to Stern and bit his style in the beginning.
