Opie is notorious for insisting on 1 year deals. Anthony felt like they were F'd out of a lot of money because of it.

[@WiGgYof09]

I would bet that at the time Opie was offered a 3 year deal at a fraction of what he use to make. Opie being Opie rejected it thinking he would get some kind of competing offer.

[@kealsta]

That has been his career MO. Ant has brought it up from time to time. Opie will only do 1 year at a time. Difficult for a duo if one sees security and the other wants a built in opt out.

@@BenGilmore93 They'd have given him a slap on the wrist for that more than likely if he was actually providing a net contribution to the company, but at the same time he was escalating his antagonism of Howard so Roland's complaint became great HR grounds for giving the squeaky wheel the grease, just not how he'd imagined it.

[@Victory1507ci]

Offered a 2-3 year deal but negotiated a one year deal; then dumped. Anthony always said opie wanted 1 year at a time = no security

He's such a dope. He said in one breath, Sirius screwed him over, cut his salary, took away his staff and his office, but then wanted him to sign a three-year deal. Makes no sense. He can't keep his b.s. straight. And he paid those guys because they were his lapdogs. He wanted people on the show who would laugh at everything he said and he could prove he's funny! Not like they say, like unfunny!

[@sdvten]

True. But in this case I would not be surprised if the company did not want to offer a 2 or 3 year deal so they could get rid of him easier if need be.

[@Dudefromapt14c]

Why opie is so arrogant and thinks anybody cares about him? He was done the minute he betrayed Anthony

[@citypopFM]

How did he betray Ant? Ant got himself fired.

[@citypopFM]

@mshesh16 The problem was the Sirius XM bosses were already giving Opie shit over Ant's growing and more frequent race rants and were getting extremely tired of it. Ant fucked up by getting drunk fresh off at that situation, obviously super angry, and going on a racist Twitter rant post by post by post. Then he refused to apologize. It was a wrap for him as far as timing. Opie and Jim even said if they had time to do a show about it before any word of suspensions of firings, Ant may have been fine, but he has nobody to blame but himself. As far as I know, the bosses were already fucking pissed at Ant because of his Compound Media stream he was doing on the side. I'm pretty sure he's man enough to take responsibility for his own actions regarding the situation and his firing, so be man enough to accept what happened happened.

[@Robb1977]

@@citypopFM ant wasn't doing compound media for several years before the firing. He started it again after because they took away his job. People say opie betrayed ant because he didn't actually try to back ant up like he claimed he did. He took back his statement that he tried to get him back on the show, and Jim said ant was basically a banned topic with opie. You can see this in one of the opie-jim fights, where the guest mentions ant and opie gets angry and like a literal psycho says "NAH WHY WOULD I CARE IF YOU BRING HIM UP ITS FIIIIINE". In a way that was dripping with sarcasm and hatred. You can say ant had race rants, and he did, but have you not seen opie try to bait him into them? The topic wont have anything to do with race, all that has to happen is a black guy is mentioned and opie goes "right because D'hose people are all thieves" or something like that. Usually ant and jim put it on the pay no mind list. Ant isn't a good person, but he's very open about his beliefs, and doesn't try to mask his racism through others, or pays black people to be his friend. I see opie as a racist who hates himself for it, but won't change. Every new black slang word he heard he intentionally added to his vocabulary so people would think he's hip and not a racist. Ants 1950s voice, and jims cuckold dialogue is racist, but entertaining... and you learn about both of them as people. Ant is a weirdo who does impressions and likes old documentaries. Jim is a sex addict. Opie however only egged them on, or tried to shut down the conversation, which does one of two things: made him complicit, or it made him a hole. The trouble with opie was he was, by his own admission, done with radio for years. He shouldn't have continued so long after his kid, because it just wasn't working with him. He was dragging the show down, and his marion-esque tough guy approach to management meant he'd use ant or Jim to continue being racist so he wouldn't get in trouble, but as you point out, others would. However his ego was so inflated (like Marion's) that he didn't realize he was becoming increasingly useless. His main contribution was reading or stealing instant feedback jokes. I dont like defending ant because he really is an ass, buy opie does everything in his power to divert blame away, and its why he loses all his friends, but his dwindling number of fans think he's the only good one and everybody is just out to get them. In summation, opie is racist, but isn't creative or brave enough to use his own voice, so he hides behind cohosts and black slang.

[@Michael_Douglas007]

In reality Opie is saying: “So instead of picking a co-host, I told them give me the money and I’ll spread 3/5’s of the wealth while pocketing the rest.” His response has sooo many holes in it. All these guys would have and did come in for free. But Opie had to chip some of HIS OWN cash into this fund cause there wasn’t enough to go around. But they’ve all done it for free and would’ve done it anyways for the exposure. But even after chipping in his own cash - he couldn’t pay Mark Normand or Bob Kelly? Even a little? Even just a taste.

If it was doing so poorly why would they then turn around and ask him to sign a 4 or 5 year deal and bring in an A-list guest host?

But did anyone else catch when he first started talking he said that the "paying guy's thing" was absurd; Then basically two minutes later says "Yeah, I was paying these guys"? I agree that Opie was the only guy that wasn't needed when it was Opie. Anthony and Jim. I hate that the show is over, but Opie screwed himself in the end by not having Anthony's back. Opie eventually showed his true colors, and Anthony and Jim are now doing great while Opie is completely irrelevant. Opie wanted to be on his own, now he is. KARMA!!!!!!

[@georgeedmond3401]

Between the waves and Opie's voice, I just woke up and it's three hours later. Wtf happened?

[@SGFTI]

Cosby Raqio.

[@ikmyuhgtrfgthy]

Opie and Opies mom. No difference

[@tylercolby1426]

I think one of the conditions of the paid appearances was that they constantly laugh at FUCKING NOTHING.

[@BudsCartoon]

Opie: "SiriusXM took away my morning show, half my pay, my office, my staff..." Yeah, that's what he's worth on his own. He's not an interviewer, he's not funny, he can't do a show by himself and no one likes him. Without Ant and Jim he's just a Jocktober host. Hilarious that after all his years of threatening to leave they took half his pay and his time slot and he still stayed.

[@debo1937]

What the hell is in the background?

[@bonnie3447]

Gregshells.

[@reillyobrien4372]

Opie Opperson throwing Vos' name in that list could not possibly have been more fake. How long was it after that shitty beach video that he turned right around and started bashing Vos?

[@biguprochester]

Opies face in this video is indicative of his true self

[@whogon]

I've never hated a human being but the closest I've ever come is Gregshells opie hughes

[@HookedonChronics]

Lol, Opie picked Vic and Sherrod over Normand and Kelly???

[@Khethatipet]

hold my hand man

[@turbogav8674]

Talk about boring ..... let that sink in.

[@goisermass]

Not an Opie Fan, but I see his side on things with paying co-Hosts.

[@TheElectricMayhem]

I don't know why people would be pissed about Opie giving out some cash for rotating co-hosts? I understand why people would get mad that he paid Sherrod, though.

[@sambbk7203]

because everyone else was trying to just do an entertaining show and he was attempting to fuck others by attaining exclusivity. Personally i don't care about that..... funny though.... I recall him pissing and moaning about howard doing that for years

[@sambbk7203]

"fuck howard for doing that shit".... did he mean daddy?

[@jaymirando3608]

Why would anyone be mad that he paid Sherrod? Sherrod made the show imo. He was the best consistent guest who came in. He was the funniest guy on the whole show. Artie Lainge is obviously funnier, but Artie can only be funny in like 30 minute or 1 hour intervals. Then he says all his jokes and he gets quiet. Sherrod was hands down the best for 3 hours at a time.

[@MickGallJr]

Jay Mirando yes but that's grading on a massive curve. Honestly Bobby would have made a better Co host.

[@timnorton4302]

So patrice did all that for free

[@TDNomad]

Opies conflict has been his jealousy of how Ant & guest/co host got much love/credit then he did. "I set it up & you guys knock it down, but I get more then the equal share of credit." Opies personna is awful & it would affect everything. Opie has always sucked it's just been masked based on how good/great Ant was/is & how he dealt w/ Opie on the show.

[@eddienash2152]

Not paying Bobby is the funniest shit ever. Not a dime.

[@jakee1d]

first time the sound of the ocean annoyed me.

[@Carrilleptbreak]

Pay to Play when you have no friends. Karma doesn't lie or forget. Bobby brought great moments on air.

[@whogon]

For the record...Roland Campos does NOT "have a hard job"

[@gregstewart5049]

Notice he called his show “A Very popular radio shoe” hahaha yeah right.

[@WaRLoKWYATT]

Naw, he said "a very popular radio show". I don't think radio shoes were ever made. Lol

[@stargazer7876]

Curiois how it works. Obviously as insanely popular as Stern and O&A showa are they pay no one. However , im curious when comics go on lesser shows etc if they get paid or do they go on local stations in the town they are playing for ticket sales and exposure?

[@CALMBEATS]

nobody forced these guys to do the show. . just saying. . they could've talked out some negotiations with opie instead of complaining after the fact knowing that other comics negotiated a better deal. . . I love all these guys for the record. not hating.

[@bb-gc2tx]

they complained after the fact because opie sherrod carl and vic kept that shit under wraps

[@brendano7948]

" I don't have time for that" ...takes time for that.

[@paulfroelich1024]

This is hilarious. What a great trio...three completely different dudes who are all on the exact same page.

[@realSpook]

So he didn't pay Bobby because "I was looking at Bob Kelly as a guy I could do radio with but he didn't do my show" It's good ol vengeful Opie

[@newyork5165]

So people got paid to work?? Holy shit, shocking!

[@coltonlarsen5775]

DUUUUUDE YA KNOW WHAT DUDE, YA DONT GET PAID, YA FIND OUT OTHERS GOT PAID, ITS LIKE DUUUUDE

[@razorbladerabbit4679]

wtf is with the waves? not sure whats more annoying opies voice or the water.

[@miked3944]

9:15 "Am I saying actually a lot? If I am, I apologize" Yes Opie, you're saying it a lot..PERIOD!

[@FuzzyKing789]

2024 almost 2025 and he still has nothing "set up" or "his way lolol

[@LigerFan]

I'd think you'd at least provide free parking (to go with that one guy saying he had to pay for parking as an example) and try and make it so at the very least all it cost them is their time. Edit: The only thing I have to say about Opie's comments is this: Wait a second, Opie. You yourself said you'd given up the morning slot.

[@LigerFan]

And there's something, I don't know, surreal I guess, about Opie doing this from the beach.

[@Contemplativeman101]

Well it is his house

[@SGFTI]

Douchey, douchey is the word you're looking for.

[@LigerFan]

That may be the word.

[@phendformyself]

How dare you refer to the great Bob Kelly as 'that one guy', lol

[@FaFaFoFoBawth]

which 'very popular radio show' is the Ope-ster referring to? sure as phuck can't be his(?)
