I just keep picturing Anthony awkwardly sitting there just thinking about plates of spaghetti hitting the wall. Opie diligently scrolling on his Blackberry.
Jimmy doesn't back down, man. I respect that. He knows he can't win physically, but he'll take a beating if it means that he didn't take the other guy's shit.
Norton's a big pussy.He pulls that bullshit,because he knows no one is gonna swing on him at his place of work.He's like the guy who starts barking loud in front of the cops,knowing it will get broken up.He deserves NO respect.
LOL. Ben is real tough. If someone who looked like that said they were going to knock my teeth out he wouldn't get in another word over me laughing uncontrollably.
bassbole Well to be completely honest Jim isn't exactly Andre The Giant. Jim Norton is one of the least intimidating people you could ever meet. It's almost like 2 rats fighting over a banana peel.
+bassbole Jimmy always says he can't fight and doesn't fight but I'd bet he says that to throw people off. Jimmy is the type that had to learn how to fight when he was younger. Ben might have gotten a shock if he had swung on Jimmy. Would have been a bad day for Ben. Gets his ass kicked by lil Jimmy, gets arrested for assault because cops are listeners to the show and then gets fired by the company for his actions.
No dude who’s bout that action tells a guy he’s going to beat him up. If you’re gonna fight you take flight simple as that. This dude ben is a punk and a sissy.
***** no i think 6 mill is pretty spot on for jimmy, he prob does 400-700k now in salary but thats only because of his tenure etc. a huge portion of jims money would be from his non stop touring... sure the show salary has been good money and constant income but his stand up is where the money comes from certainly not vice lol. shows like O&A/O&J provide a great platform for the inhouse comedians because they can constantly plug to millions of listeners which is a stand up comedians wet dream.
@Jade Runner I can't remember what the exact context was, but I remember not long ago in one of the compilations, I found it. Just like this, kinda. Ben was being super smarmy and upset about something, and hinted at Patrice. Patrice was being super thoughtful about it, asking what it was or what he did wrong. And when he kept making passive aggressive remarks about behind-the-scenes shit, Patrice laid into him essentially saying to man up and tell him, that he was just being bitchy just to stir things up. The exchange was like 30 min long and benign but Patrice roasted the little motherfucker.
I've just recently started listening to O&A on a more regular basis and this is the best fight clip I've heard so far. I seriously thought a brew ha-ha might break out at any moment.
WOW I have never heard Jimmy's voice go into that tone and cadence before... I could recognize the Jimmy in "Uncle Paul" more than that pissed off voice I just heard Norton speaking with. That was crazy.
Those staff guys all sounded like a bunch of idiots, What could they possibly have been thinking trying to pick an argument with Jim? He destroyed them and embarrassed them with ease
Jim wasn't "talking big". He was having an argument. And if you need to physically intimidate or assault someone in order to "win" a debate, you have no place in polite society.
You ever notice how Jimmy is incredibly tough and happy to be disrespectful in situations in which he cannot get beaten up? He could do with a good thrashing.
What a delusional take. Jimmy never makes shit up or lies - and if you think he does show proof. You’re defending a four-eyed geek like Ben who couldn’t beat himself off along with the rest of the pathetic staff that can’t handle jokes and need safe spaces. What a joke. Pull up your panties and TRY and act like a man.
Perverted, sadistic and shortie Jim has my full respect for this alone. And from knowing how he was growing up and how he used to get pestered and abused - he's fearless at this point.
That would make an amazing B-movie slasher. That and a tongue twister. It's like the Hash-Slinging Slasher. I can't even read it in my mind without fucking it up over and over. OH MY GOD! It's the Poke Smoking-- the Coal Poking-- It's the SMOLE POKER!!
There comes a point when "arguing" or "debating" becomes a very good reason to bash someones teeth down their throat. Jimmy has walked that line a lot of times. Which is why i both love the guy, and wish someone would take a swing at him. He hasn't been like this for quite a while now, but the Ventura interview comes to mind.
What a little maggot punk Ben is! Norton handled that perfectly. He was straightforward and talked that little passive aggressive coward right down.Love when he flat out said, "Ben, you don't intimidate me in any way,shape or form, please"! Amazing! And this is one of those rare times that Opie was on point and totally had Jim's back! Was nice to hear.
Only opie would take the sociopath insult personally, almost derailing everything, while jimmy was dealing out an epic ass whopping... and Jim was right
So basically folks two people with borderline or bipolar 2 disorder...violence, anger, paranoia, jealousy. Very sad. Update: one is dead and one is in jail
Never try to argue or debate someone that uses their mouth as their job and especially if they are good at their job.....iv heard jimmy argue with different ppl and have NEVER heard him "loose" the argument.
Ben Sparks is the guy who threatened to punch Jimmy's teeth out. Ben Sparks is the guy who sprayed something (aerosol?) on the Stern fan during the 2006 walkover incident (resulting in Ben's own firing). Ben Sparks is the guy who started (or spread) the Lynsi Smigo sex-tape rumor, resulting in Hughes filing lawsuit in 2011, and who was found guilty of harassment (stalking/text-messages) in 2015. Guy is a mess; Anthony repeatedly calls him a cokehead.
This is an example of Opie being better than Ant. Opie stood up for Jim, Ant was silent. With that said Ant does always go quiet when people in studio fight and he is not involved.
Lol I'd for sure snap if i saw My boy Norton being talked to like that... You're mine after that! Benny boy mc coke head... "just do your job man" ahahahah slayed by Jimmy
