It's a two way street, some things have improved other deteriorated. Everyone has their opinion on the post-syndication status of the show.

On one hand there is much less interactivity between the show and the listeners that there used to be.

But there have been more high-profile guests to screw around with lately.

There are good shows and there are bad shows, every day can't be a classic.

There are other threads to discuss this in, there is one at the top of GD as we speak. Please contain your post in there. I am moving this to the enemies forum in 5 mins.

This doesn't make sense. Your saying that they rarely do any funny bits besides yesterdays show which absolutely sucked. If it absolutely sucked how is it one of the funny bits they rarely do?

On one hand there is much less interactivity between the show and the listeners that there used to be.



And I think that this is a big problem because this is one of the things that made the show so enjoyable and entertaining. Back then the average listener could contribute to the show and actually feel like they were a part of something.

I actually think that this is one of the problems. It seem lately that all they do is have guest after guest on the show. There is always a guest in studio. I'm not talking about Norton, Bruerer, Mohr etc who just come in a bullshit with the guys, I'm talking about guest who come in and then O&A actually have to conduct an interview. It's never just the two of them bullshitting anymore. I think some of the best show they've had is when there are just sitting there just going off the cuff.

Nowadays they seem to be trying too hard to entertain everyone and it's backfiring on them and just making the show dull.

I couldn't agree more. I know I don't even listen as much as I used to. I enjoyed thier show prior to sydication and wasn't on the "Sydication Now" bandwagon because I knew that the show would change and it has.

I agree, less guests = more gooder...Used to be funny as hell when the two of them (and yes, Norton too sometimes) just went at it...

their funniest bits were durring commercials, but now they have to time everything just so, that they can't go off on a stupid spot any more. syndication killed the show.

personally i dont think the show has dropped off but WE really cant be selfish, alot of people didnt want them to be heard nationally bc it would ruin or slow down the show- but look @ it for o/a. they are pretty famous and are making a ton of money and hell their entertaining the shit out of me. they still are the god dam best!

I'll be happy if they never have another "high-profile" guest or contest again.

You tell me that nothing matters, You're just fucking scared
You tell me that I'm better, You just hate yourself
You tell me that you like her, You just wish you did
You tell me that I make no difference, Well at least I'm fucking trying
What the fuck have you done?

i think one of the major problems is that they lost the ferocity that they used to have. When management was keeping them down, they had syndication to pine for, etc. they had a sort of spirit in them that seems lost these days.

I didn't even want O&A to get syndicated after my experience with that other guy (HOO HOO). Even though we bash stern now , he was great in his prime. and when O&A got syndicated i thought they would do the same thing stern did, get stupid ass guest after guest that noone wants to hear. Stern just got weak with success. Now all O&A do is talk about contests and other cities, get back to your roots FAGEETS!! Tom Brokaw is funny though even if it did come after syndication. Norton saves that show. More rape humor please!!

The only thing that I wish would happen is finding out what happened to some of the older "guests." Spike? Why isn't she around? Tara (aka - The Hottest Girl to take her clothes off on the O & A show), all have disappeared never to return. They were teh staples! Breuer isn't on that much anymore, neither is Jay! They had a formula for success, and they are straying. But they are still funnier than any other show in New York.

Where's Spike???

Ummm... The Tom Brokaw bits started WAY BEFORE syndication.

Because she became too much of a self-promoting whore-bag and is no longer welcome in the studio.

boo hoo. You have to share the show. We are so jealous of the other cities. Cry a f-ing river why dont you. Our daddies dont love us anymore.

Whats wrong New York, feeling like step-children. I guess you can listen to that no talent Ferell or Ron and Fag.

Typical new york attitude. You people are scum and this thread proves what pampered babies you really are. Grow up faggots

I am so sick and tired of everyone saying how the show sucks now. It's funny now, it was funny before, just different types of funny. Did anyone really think the new contracts would not come with clauses? If you don't like the show now, change the station. If you're not going to do that, shut the f up!

I must admit I have been a Stern fan for almost 19 years and up until about 2 years ago when I got turned on to O&A by a friend of mine I thought Stern was the best possible radio show and then I realized that was not always the case O&A were what stern used to be when He was hungry and innovative and would do what ever it takes to be the best. Now since O&A have gotten a true taste of fame and fortune (5,000,000 a year each) they are rapidly becoming what stern has become and that is just sad. O&A no longer seem to even care if the show is good and they whine like Stern does about how everyone wants to keep them down, when you make that much money a year and bitch and moan as much as they now do it is just plain poor. I hate to say it but with the current state of the show if they went up against Howard they would get theirs heads handed to them, as bad as Howard has become they are worse, they now whine and complain 10 times as much as Howard does about how management is against them even though they just forked over and amazing amount of money to them. I wish the company I worked for was so against me that they would give me that kind of money, I currently make my company 33 million dollars a year and I do not earn 1/10 of what those whining assholes make. I will give them credit they are the best in their respective time slot but come on guys go back to they way the show was before syndication.

I was also a Stern fan for a very long time. I thought that O&A were ripping him off. I was drinking a gallon of the Kool Aid a day. I think that at first O&A Syndication was a little awkward, but so was Stern's at first...remember? There is one very big difference. O&A understand their fans. Who cares how much money they make? They are real. What you call whining is Opie keeping it real, losing his shit. Don't you do the same sometimes? What radio show is as close to their audience as O&A? I don't mean driving around in an RV giving out money or wicked fun bowling with some fans. O&A have road shows, go out drinking with fans. They are like Stern used to be. They do and say what everybody wishes they could say.
Going down hill? I haven't seen it.

Bring back Spaz, though. That would rock.

NO NO NO NO NO !!! I hated Spaz and everything about him. His voice sent shrills down my spine! I am so relaxed without him. I'd rather move to Shitsburg upstate than have to hear him again.

Spaz was so incredibly stupid it was funny. I think Bruer and Jay not being around as much is because they're both filming movies right now I think. I know Jay definatly is, not sure about Breur.

New Fan you stupid idiot, it's never been a case of NY doesn't want to share O and A. Since they started getting a buzz around them, to the time when they finally were syndicated NY used to chant Syndication Now!! We're all happy O and A are going all over the country. I've read and responded to a few of your posts, so I know how much of an idiot you are. Go impale yourself on the Washington Monument so we don't have to read your posts anymore.
