In 2023, is it weirder to listen to Sam & Jim or "Compound" Media?

[Mick_Mickerson]

Ostensibly, there are people who do both things. I imagine Cumpound has boomers who don't know how to unsubscribe and joined IN SOLIDARITY with AnTH after the firing and no longer listen. I genuinely can't picture the person who fires up the computer at 4 p.m. to actually watch the show live, though.

But I also genuinely can't picture the person who bypasses all the podcasts and youtube clips in the world AND has Sirius and chooses to tune into Sam & Jim.

Ultimately, the deciding factor for me is having to actually subscribe and pay for Cumpound on its own.

Obviously the play is to take a lil peek into the Opester's FREE livestream from time to time.... just a tassste and enjoy the fawkin' hang before heading into the office

Pretty sure people still upload full J&S shows. Unlike CP, Sirius doesn’t really seem to crack down on them.

But what's the demographic? And Why? I genuinely don't know what a Sam & Jim fan would look like demographically.

There's no fucking way I could listen to a minute of Jim and Sam, I'm baffled these 2 are even a show.
Compound at the very least and I do mean very least has Anthony

The DMAN hates to say this. But at least Stupid Jim And Ugly Sam are on a corporate platform that you can accidentally find them just by channel surfing.


Auntie is in complete and total obscurity. Absolutely unknown to most, and known for being disgusting by those who do know him.

If you listen to J&S chances are you’re a funko pop owning reddit browsing millennial with a beard and glasses. The kind who legitimately say “Uhm, yikes!”

If you listen to Compound Media you are a racist or a pedophile. Or a racist pedophile. No in between.

Chersssssss chersssssssss chersssssss

Put it like this, if someone told me they liked J&S i’d think they were an unfunny nerd. If someone told me they liked CM i’d think they were a sex offender.

it's also just banal enough to be serviceable background noise, so flipping on a random station and landing on jim and sam when you've got a half an hour drive to kill is whatever. in cpmedia's case, you have to actually go out of your way to listen to it, and anyone who does that should have their rights restricted

You say that like its a net positive in 2023.

Because Jim and Sam are SiriusXM they actually get guests in some times that aren't bottom of the barrel self published Proud Boy level pundits, so I think, though I don't do either, I think Jim and Sam might be the less weird show to listen to.

Truck drivers that still need Sirius as to not drive into a ravine out of boredom but want the closest thing to O&A still offered on the platform.

Are you saying there's not a big market for a pro wrestling, porn and standup comedy morning zoo radio? N-ghhahahaayaehehe

This is how I imagine a Sam Roberts "fan," if such a thing exists, but HOW would they even know about the show? From the dubya dubya e? Is Sam the draw at this point?

When you describe it like that, it doesn't sound like a bad show.

Do they still do "edgy" porno shit? I think the show is just pop culture stuff at this point, but I haven't listened.

It would be hilarious if the show is actually really good lol

Guess we'll never find out.

On the premise of this post, I decided to check out the latest episode, skipped around a bit, and it just seems to be an open door of comedians coming in to tell not particularly interesting stories of what they did on the weekend.

None of them know J&S through O&A or their solo ventures and if they do it has to be 1% of their listeners. It is literally just people tuning around Sirius who randomly found it and stuck to it.

 

[Cyberatorquer]

I can't imagine that there exists a show on Compound Media that's equal to or worse than Jim&Sam.

 

[alkiefuck2]

Sam is too hate-able/unlikable whatever. If I met someone irl who said they listen to compound, I'd get it, as retarded as it may be. Jim and Sam fan? Lol fuck off, I can't wrap my head around that.
Sam fucking Roberts.. I despise the cunt. Tony's at least made me lawff before
