@@AltCTRLF8 shock master fell on his stormtrooper face through a plaster wall in front of Ric Flair and the entire WWF audience. He continued wrestling, but as a klutz with Bell’s palsy. AJ made a putz of himself in front of North Dakota’s local weekend night time viewership. All 13 of them.
Anvilanches are REAL, and NOT FUNNY. My cousins ex-boyfriends stepdads parole officers neighbor was lost in that one outside Cleveland a couple years back. Fuckin tragedy man...
Of course Opie has to be the guy that questions the validity of the tape. Yes, a guy on a hot mic swearing, that’s the craziest thing I’ve ever heard of.
As a kid, my first day at a car lot, my boss pulled me aside and told me I wasn't allowed to change people's radio stations. There was a big story on NPR, and I was such a nerd, my boss had no problems figuring bout it was me forgetting to turn their station back.
Brakathor I don’t know how long he has been doing this for. This is a great question. Does anyone have the answer to this? This is really something this comment section should answer. This is something we will get the answer for buddy. This week. Use this as your promise
It's a local news station in the middle of nowhere in North Dakota. Maybe he was hired just because of his stupid degree and not many other applicants excited to relocate to live in rural snow.
@@citypopFM I worked at this station’s sister station in Minot. It is the absolute bottom of the barrel. You’re supposed to start there and maybe eventually go to a better market. KFYR (the station in this clip) had some horrendous on air talent. Just flub city…
Funny thing is: the station dropped him like 3rd Period Home-Ec, but no sooner did he completely turf out in Bumfuck Bismark ND, he was getting inundated with requests for interviews/appearances on talk shows, and even some feelers for jobs in markets like Chicago, NYC, and LA. Guys like Letterman, Brokaw and Matt Lauer were sending condolences and big-ups to the guy. After this, he apparently moved straight back home and got his old bartending gig back at a club in Dewey Beach, saying he wanted to work over the summer and "see what the next challenge is." Which seems to me to be a rather flawed strategy; the guy has been getting better offers than what he had based on this, but in three months his window will be long gone. I mean, after this, the fuck-up will be remembered...but nobody will care who he is.
spot on. if he played it right he could have parlayed it into a decent career. by time a few years went by and everyone got used to seeing his face on TV he'd just be a guy on the news in people's minds (as opposed to "oh my god, that's the dude who said 'g ay f ucking s hit' on his very first day" and got fired).. gotta strike while the iron's hot
We all make mistakes. And some of us have done radio since we were 18, and not all of us burn bridges, and take MONTHS AND MONTHS to launch an abortion of a podcast. #OpieRadio
Jimbo Morrison if he was a genius he would have stuck with the production, and being the straight man, and kept his mouth shut when funny people were talking.
I literally just rewatched this video for the 100th time an hour ago, then just now watched a local news report--the female anchor is now a reporter in Sacramento 🤣. Wonder what A.J. is up to now...
@@TL2354 probably obsessed, there couldn't be any other explanation for it because he's the best at what he does, not to mention he's hilarious and he never brags and is extremely humble. So you're right, I guess people are obsessed with him because of how incredible he is
Oh, that poor, poor, bastard. Two minutes prior to this, he's probably sitting behind the anchor desk, trying to focus up, thinking "Okay, AJ...this is it. This is Game Day. Everything you have worked for, and worked on, since you were seven years old has been about moving you to this point. A man's life comes down to a few moments...this is one of them. Time to go big, or go home... ...you hear that, AJ? It's your destiny, calling to you. It's all your hopes dreams. Time to become the man you always wanted to be...the man you *ARE,* no matter what all the haters and doubters said. They all laughed when you said you would be a TV journalist one day; let's see who's laughing **NOW!** All they saw was an ugly larvae...and now you will emerge from your chrysalis as a stunning, beautiful Monarch butterfly. Dad is looking down at you from Heavan, and he is about to see that working himself to death and an early grave to pay the tuition for your Broadcasting and Journalism degree was not all for naught. You are as a humble squire pulling Excalibur from the stone, and becoming...huh? What the hell is this word? 'Gay'...GAY?! Is that pronounced 'gay?' 'Gay?' Gay...fucking shit..." *"So...errrr...AJ! Tell us a little about yourself."* "Oh, no...OH, NOOO!! Oh, my holy GOD!!! Are we live?!?! Did I just say 'Gay fucking shit' out loud?!" *"Thanks, Van. Well, I graduated from West Virginia University, and I...uhhhh...am used to...um, being from the East Coast..."* "'Used to being from the East Coast'? Oh, that's just GREAT, you moron!!! That's even better than 'gay fucking shit!' I'd give ANYTHING just to have a giant mutant spider drop from the ceiling and eat me...AAAAHHHH!!! STUPID!! STUPID!! STUPID!!"
Why the jab at the "Boom goes the Dynamite" kid? he got a job as a reporter after several years of extreme hate on the internet...no one knew the teleprompter was malfunctioning during that clip and that was with 15 minutes of prep because he was just an intern and the guy that does the sports had suddenly called off.
Lori Laughlin wasn’t the first person to pay off a school for their kids, I bet this guys parents too and then helped get him this job. Always works that way with big companies and any job that can make someone a celebrity.
I have no doubt this guy was the one applicant who had the "best" credentials on paper just because he went to a decent school and somehow earned a degree in the field. Another example of idiots hiring other idiots just because of paper credentials than assessing the actual person. Like the guy above me said though, I cannot imagine many hungry people were clawing at each other to do the local news in North Dakota.
Dr Dre donated a 100 million to the school for a new building that his daughter just happened to get scholarship for after. He had nerve to talk shit about Lori and people had to remind him how his kid got in school. Was pretty funny.
First time in history WEST VIRGINIA was referred to as the east coast. The head snap up is the best. If I lived there I would start a movement to get him back on the air.
there's also a great part when they've repeatedly said gay fucking shit million times and then opie reads a tweet that says gay FS and he says "I don't know what FS means...." Bro, really?
The Opster was trying EXTREMELY hard to derail the entire segment. His groaning, heavy sighs, and hating having to acknowledge "the funny" that he wasn't responsible for makes knowing he is an old, useless man these days all the sweeter. I loved how Jimmy and Anthony were doing there job and trying to make this subpar clip funnier than it actually is, but the Opster couldn't take having to rewind a few seconds of a, "viral clip."
11:20 does anybody know if this is 2 different stories read back to back too quickly or is the fun time for the disabled people the avalanche in colorado?
Dude, he was so horrendous on the air with that atomic blunder, there was no way they were gonna give him one more second to embarrass himself and the station.
