Opie & Anthony - A Collection of 50 Bombs

As we know, the Opie & Anthony show embraced bombs nearly as much as they did for jokes that worked. Here is a collection of 50 moments Opie, Anthony, or Jim bombed, and the subsequent reaction from others in studio.
Average clip is around 1 minute 30 seconds. The last clip is 12 minutes, Anthony bombs and they read instant feedback and take calls from listeners who all rip on him.
Sitting in studio for a few of these bombs were Rich Vos, Louis CK, Bill Burr, Bob Kelly, Patrice Oneal, Mike Birbiglia, and a few others.
Enjoy!

Bombs & Flubs was a running segment on O&A where the show collected a bunch of clips similar to these and reviewed them 1 by 1 at a later time.

No one can enjoy a bomb more than Jimmy Norton. Bursts into fits of laughter and explains how bad it was and never stops reminding them

[@DKCG0113]

I don't know. I think it would be better if he started bashing his hands on a soundboard...

[@jamesthomison4356]

One of my favorite moments in the show it was either Danny or Travis who threw out a bomb and Norton was like, "Wait I didn't hear you." and they repeat it and he goes "I heard it I just wanted it to bomb twice."

[@jadedmastermind]

James Thomison I know that moment! It was Ben who bombed and Norton duped him into repeating his bomb. That moment is about 3 minutes into a massive, 3 hour long bombs and flubs compilation.

It's just as dumb to think that someone is only funny if they make a child rape joke. It's not edgy anymore and it's played out. Patrice was possibly the funniest guy on the show or at least one of them. He never made jokes like that and he was able to still be funny. If Norton was still making jokes like that then people would call him a one trick hack.

[@khalifwriter.7765]

Or he attempts to explain the truthfulness of his joke as if that makes it funnier.

[@bluraynation5188]

The biggest problem with Opie is that he's only funny if he dials the delivery way back and subtly moves the bit along or just goes all in with the shock jock persona like back in the old days. Most of the time however, he tries to follow Ant and Jimmy and he just can't because he's not naturally funny or balanced. It's those moments that gave him the title of "bit killer".

[@chainblayde]

@@bluraynation5188 It doesn't help that he literally hasn't progressed one bit since the beginning.

Looking through my old externals trying to dig up more stuff from BiteMyTorrent WOTW clips to share on this channel. There's thousands of clips but -- only looking for what's fresh forY ouTube. Even the most obscure clips I come across already got uploaded back in the prehistoric KZbin 15min video limit stone age... before Steven Knight / Jasonayeityer compilations. Frrrrunkis / Mrmys1900 and that group. Some of it might be worth consolidating into new compilations and reupping, but that'll be a backup plan thing Will keep looking for more for us though, if I come across more new-to-KZbin stuff it'll be up here for listening ASAP!
