This episode is a great example of why I miss O&A. Between Opie, Anthony, Jim, the staff over the years, and the regular comics that were on, this show really felt like you were listening to family laugh and/or bicker with each other. Seriously! With all the stories that were told over the years, I legit know more about these guys than some of my actual family members. RIP Patrice and long live Colin.

[@irider1201]

"...Bizarro World Rat Pack where Colin is Frank Sinatra." is how Patrice describes them in this video around 22:25.

And never will happen again.

See, as talented as Ant is, he could let Patrice or whoever be the star once in a while. Howard could never. Which is prime O + A beats the stuffing out of prime Howard, as much as I love Artie.

[@wolf7el356]

Because it's true. Patrice, Jim, Bob Kelly & even Nick Di Paulo have all had similar issues with Colin where he was upset at them for a very long time & they had no idea about it because he's very emotionally unattached & rarely ever expressed his true feelings. He was always guarded around the Cellar/Tough Crowd crew because he was seen as their De Facto leader & to him he just couldn't show weakness or vulnerability. Bill Burr once told a story on his podcast about how one day when everyone was breaking balls at the Cellar that Colin was one of the last guys to show up that night & Burr made a quick off the cuff remark about how Colin showed up late on purpose to make himself feel more important & he said Colin took it really personal & didn't speak to him for like 8 months & he had no clue that he was even upset about it.
