I understand O&A are a business, but I HATE commercials. I know without them, there would be no show, but radio commercials are god-awful. They are never entertaining. The only commercial I like is Foxwoods. That song is Great. But O&A's commercials seemed to have increased, and the commercials suck. I love O&A, the show is excellent lately, and I accept the fact there will be commercials. That doesn't mean I can't say that commercials suck. Come see me sing outside the O&A building. Today I am doing Carmen.

What's your point?

I'm going to call my g/f Carmen today, so I will be doing Carmen as well.

Hey, He put a commercial in his topic, complaining about commercials.

My question is; why so many boner commercials? Do the advertisers think the people who listen to O&A are in the age group that needs help with that. That they can't get it up. Or are these the only companies buying time on the show? Beer, condoms, and boner stuff.

One of the pratfalls of syndication, a tighter commericial schedule. Ive already learned to time them out and change station accordingly. That is the benefit of regular commercial breaks.

But if you do that, you run the risk of missing out on a hysterical live read - especially if Breuer of Caliendo are in-studio.

You can't even count on that anymore. Some of the best live reads happend to be as long as some bits, i.e. Otto & George. But with the rigid time schedule they can't do that as much.

Yes they can, it just has to be a national live read, one that is played in every market. On a side note that has nothing to do with commercials (I swear!)~ our old fusball table is behind Stinky right outside the studio. I swear that statement has nothing to do with commercials.

Funny you say that, I checked out the Fooseball table naked when it was still in my dining room. Its hard to play it, meaning fooseball, with yourself though, nude or not.

You could always come to Cleveland....3 minutes of commercials and then 8 minutes of more extreme music before the show comes back on. 92.3 FM here can't even sell commercial time for the show. Worries me as far as O&A's survival goes here.

It seems to me Don & Mike have commercial breaks every 2 seconds in the last hour of their show. You should be so lucky to listen to a show that provides boobs and beer.

When your'e telling your little stories, here's an idea, have a point. It makes it so much more intersting for the people listening to it.

Hey opera-man, when O + A take on Valium as a sponsor, do yourself a favor and pay attention to it.
