Jimmy: "In a year, lets just do a podcast" 7 months later - Jimmy: "I can't do a show with Ant! I need the money! Sirius pays more!" WORM

[@citypopFM]

@Tom Henesey Yeah but Jim is allllllways talking about his loyalty to his friends and the obvious move would've been to head to Compound when his Sirius contract expired. Yes, we get he'd rather have a comfortable cushy job, but it doesn't preclude him from the fact the fans, Ant, fuck even Opie wanted and expected Jimmy to go to Compound because it made sense. What stock does Jimmy even have now? Way less without being next to Ant and being second mic to Sam. If he did a permanent show with Ant his stock as a comic would go way up because he'd be entirely free to do and say whatever he wanted rather than tone it down so badly at Sirius being boring. I love Jimmy but sorry, he's a giant worm.

That’s how it works though right. Just like I know! Along with I do not think sports players should not make the ungodly amount of money they do but the reason why they do. Is because of the amount of people who watch or listen on the radio. When the advertisers get involved with the tv companies and those ratings come in along with the ticket sales come in.

Ron and Fez was the only reason I continued to pay from 2010 till nov dec of 2015 to begin with and that was only cuz I kept getting deals like 60 bucks a year prices.

O&A needs to bring a lawsuit against SIRIUS for Breach of Contract and Hindrance of Fulfilling Contractual Obligation. Forget the $350G dispute and the Howard Stern aspect. I don't believe XM is obligated to provide a "free special". And Harassment by Howard Stern can always come later. XM has, since HS came on board, flt-lined O&A's show to appease HS. With customers such as myself: they have taken away O&A after the merger. Their explanation is "I wasn't supposed to have it in the first place (I was on XM)". In fact, I believe consumers should bring a class-action as well, for Bait & Switch tactics.

Ehh. You're about half right. Technologically they have the ability to have crisp, clean, beautiful broadcasts. Ant's already proven that with his show. The bigger problem I think is scale and logistics. SiriusXM, for all it's shittiness, gave them a platform to have interesting guests, and was accessible because of the studio location in Manhattan. Opie and Jim have already said moving the entire show out to Ant's basement just wouldn't work. That being said, I'm sure the duo could make a decent investment into some Manhattan office space and lay the foundations for a major podcast network in the vein of Carolla Digital or PodcastOne.
