Mr. Tomlinson has just threatened Leslie Varney, a female publisher whom he has been attacking on Twitter from behind a block for more than a year, to be sued into poverty with a lawsuit that will presumably be funded by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.
- Mr. Tomlinson's 2021 lawsuit was funded in secret by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, a 501(c)(3) charity, to the tune of $100,000 without the knowledge or consent of their donors or members. They also agreed to pay any sanctions in case he lost (which he did).
- All parties involved signed NDAs so that the general public would never know.
- To this day, SFWA has never acknowledged its funding of the lawsuit, and actively instructs the few people in the know to ignore all inquiries into it.
- Is the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America funding Mr. Tomlinson's lawsuit against the Milwaukee Police? If they are, the general public probably wouldn't know due to their history of funding expensive lawsuits in secret.
- You can use IRS form 3949-A to report SFWA's activity if you reasonably believe that it is illegal for a 501(c)(3) charity to secretly fund frivolous nuisance lawsuits for one of its members.

- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal (himself) to a troll.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never shown this video footage during any of his media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergences (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.
Opie says VICE documentary about O&A inspired him to reunite with Anthony...
- Thread starter DMAN
- Start date
To be fair to the BROTHAMAN Opie has always been pretty honest about his role in the falling out. He had issues that he acknowledged, worked on, and fixed. Sometimes they showed their face but he tried to be self aware. He knew him and Ant were growing apart and unfairly took it out on his girlfriend. I really don’t know what more Ant ballwashers want from him other than saying “I SUCKED ON O&A AND CONTRIBUTED NOTHING, HAIL ANTHONY!” which isn’t true in the slightest and he doesn’t believe it because he knows this is the case. Anthony mean while hasn’t taken responsibility for ANYTHING:
“Yeaaah I had my girl on my lap on the show but, WHATEVER! DONT BE MEAN TO HER! Yeah I shit talked his brothers resturant but, OH WELL! THEY WOULDNT SERVE ME! Yeah I sent a text to Jimmy about him but OH WELL! HE WASNT FUCKING LOOKING AT ME!”
And it’s the same shit with his arrest. And his firing. And Bill Burr. And getting thrown out of the cellar. And his SC house going to shit. Nothing is ever his fault. He is a constant victim of a world out to get him and everyone should understand why he’s such an asshole and love him for it.
Bob Kelley was at the forefront of podcasting and I don't think he's made all that much money from it. I don't think o&a had the business acumen to succeed where Bobby failed. Any o&a podcast network would have wound up looking like compound media.
Best case scenario for them was to stay at Sirius and re-sign each few years for less money as they run out the clock. Also would have spared us from Geno Bisconte.
It's an interesting what if but as others have pointed out it would require a shit ton of work that neither Ope or Ant would have wanted to do even for a possible 8-9 figure return.
More realistic would've been a network not unlike Compound Media but instead of Anthony being the lead it would've been O&A, they might have generated enough income with it to get another ageing radio guy (Artie maybe?) but it probably would've been a place for people that other places don't want for whatever reason.
Not being critical of it either, I'd probably subscribe to a network that had Opie & Anthony plus an Artie Lange hosted show but it wouldn't have set the world on fire.
In regards to them uniting in 2023 or 2024 I'm not so sure that would happen after all the shit and if it did how good would it actually be? I listen to the Opie podcast every now and then and the only time he has something interesting to say is when he talks about the old days, I don't watch Anthony ever as I'm not subscribed but on the free stuff I've seen it is pretty much references from the 60s and 70s and the only time he has something interesting to say is when he talks about the old days.
Even if they did get together do any of us here want to hear him ranting about blacks whilst Opie awkwardly sits there? Is Opie going to be able to stomach Nana's celebratory tweets when children die? No chance.
Bill Burr throwing Anthony out of Patrice's benefit is likely a preview of the O&A reunion. They might talk to each other peacefully for a few minutes and nervously and awkwardly go back and forth a few times. But eventually it will lead to a screaming match. Opie mocking Anthony over Sue Lightning. Anthony threatening violence. And then Kenny throwing Anthony out. Compound Media fans will declare it a massive victory for Anthony on the level of George Bush's 2003 Iraq victory speech on that aircraft carrier.
He was an intern for 7 years and the majority of his job was getting Howard a baked potato for breakfast. Monumentally stupid career decision on his part.
And Stern loathed anything that Grillo did beyond microwaving a potato for him. Grillo once auditioned for The Sopranos and got the part. He is the guy in the pizza parlor who gets his food thrown on the floor by Jackie Jr. and his friends. He never once used Howard's name and literally got it entirely on his own. He was working on The Sopranos in the background the first two seasons and that's how he got the audition. And all Howard and everyone on the show did was shit on him for being on The Sopranos and call him a loser.
Artie Lange once did an appearance on Conan and Howard shit all over him and Conan the next day. And Artie went right after Howard and mocked him back. And Howard basically threatened to fire Artie by calling him a "temporary replacement for Jackie" as if Artie didn't get in line he would be gone. The argument was that Artie wanted to play clips from the show on Conan and Howard called his agent to send a cease and desist before the taping of the show. And Artie knew that Howard did it behind his back and had it out with Howard on the air.
Stern was always doing petty things like that.
His blossoming golf skills didn't save hiim from rage quitting at 6am after an eight hour stream. I thought black guys were supposed to be good at golf
Try this,
Just hit different parts of the stream, 10/10 is some type of cursing and animalistic behavior.
Long gone are days of comped rooms at the Foxwoods and Bellagio . He now streams from a Days Inn or Redroof, not a Holiday Inn Express
Plus they wouldn't be able to get the same amount of guests as they used to. Anthony is poison to anyone that chooses to associate with him
Pretty much rolls his eyes when he starts talking about his domestic violence charge. Nigger behavior.
Also he lies about why Opie was pissed that Anthony's girlfriend was in studio. She was giving notes to people telling them what was funny and what was not. And forcing herself into the show. Anthony also removed an entire month of shows from the archives that referenced her as Lobster Girl. And would ban the pests or callers from mentioning her in a negative way.
Violence is only a problem when they commit it, it seems
It’s more than a month, it’s about 3 months if not 6 months missing from late 1999.
Opie just chills by the beach and enjoys life while Anthony is unattractive and is still complaining about black people into a microphone.

If Ant wasn't obsessed with niggers they could probably work out a deal with a platform like Rumble. Maybe even Daily Wire if they want something edgy/humorous and not completely political. But Ant is irredeemable and consigned to the Cozy TV ghetto. You'd have to be a retard to sign any deal involving him never knowing when your investment is going to blow up in your face.
The formula is already there for a show too. Have set topics and planned out shows to recreate the YouTube compilations, condensing what could've been months of scattered content into an hour, as that is what most people have become accustomed to. It'd be an easy sell if nana wasn't so toxic.

I was going to check your profile to see, but OOPS! This white nigger limits who can view their profile!
Don't ever talk about any of your posts to me again.... If you're too afraid of letting people click on them.
You will get zero credit, and you will accept it.
Anthony knows he threw away millions when he got fired and he's too much of a pussy to confront opie face to face. I think it would work if they reunited. Just keep jimmy out of it.
