Why is every single O&A fan on YouTube a retard?

All of them have good reasons to hate each other. They're terribly dysfunctional people who were lucky enough to capture lightning in a bottle with the "shock jock" craze.

It wasn't really luck. Opie pushed the show like crazy even willing to risk their jobs over pranks and stunts. He was always ahead of the game for stuff like viral marketing and getting fans involved. They were doing podcasts of the show and allowing listeners to host entire shows on fansites without WNEW or XM taking them down. Opie tried to get Sirius to sign Burr, Rogan, Patrice, and others. He clearly saw the media landscape better than most.

Opie also always had a normal personal life. You basically never heard about his home life in some grotesque or revolting way. He spent his free WNEW suspension years traveling the world. He is married with a normal family and wife. Opie rarely even talked about his personal life on air because it was normal. Like when he had his kids it was barely mentioned.

Anthony is basically fully dysfunctional professionally. Admitting to stealing the Apollo Air Conditioning vans to do jetski runs. Learning various scams from his criminal father. Never taking the show seriously. Showing up drunk or late. Tanking his own Compound Media company. Anthony has never really had a serious career nor job. Look at his book deal and book signings compared to Norton's standup shows and signings. Anthony has no idea what he is doing on his own.

And his personal life was a disaster of course. Smoking crack with his family, the divorce from Jennifer, beating Dani and getting arrested, Nicolini saga, Sue Lightning. Anthony's personal life was a car wreck for people to rubberneck at every time he talked about it on air. Every time Anthony's personal life was brought up on air it was insane. $100,000 monthly water bill for his pool. Girlfriend at pediatrics. Girlfriend in insane asylum. Ex-girlfriend burns and steals items from home. Crashing his Mustang. Flying drones over middle schools. Never a dull moment.

Norton actually can function professionally. Has a steady radio gig. Has done national standup tours on his own. Does regular tv and movie work. Was featured in a Scorsese film. Yeah sure he is not the next Tom Cruise and taking over Hollywood. But Norton's career is actually pretty impressive and on the higher end of show business. His personal life is the utter and total disaster.

Norton's personal life is the most insane. Between the Viking and taking HIV medication he is completely gone at this point. No redemption.

I'd say because the videos are so old at this point that they all learn to spout the same '08/'09 opinions that they see have the most support - mainly that Ant is the funniest man alive, Opie stinks, and Jim Norton is the funniest standup comic who ever did it.
Normies can't think for themselves, they just repeat what has been told to them.

Well, let’s go to the root of the issue.

Opie Hater Zombies are born out of ignorance. Ignorance meaning “a PROUD lack of awareness, with no desire to enlighten yourself.”

WHY are Opie Hater Zombies ignorant? Because they do not have the knowledge or experience needed to appreciate Opie, his contributions, and what he brought to the table.

HOW can a listener of Opie & Anthony be ignorant to Opie’s contributions? Because they never heard O&A outside of the same 20~ recirculating clips from XM (the dying years)

Now, WHERE will you find those people? On YouTube under O&A videos of course. The same 20 clips they keep on repeat and never venture to the early years because they’re ascared they will learn to love it. Learn to live with it. Diamonds are forever and so is Opie Hughes.

I've seen you post about how you ignore 2004 onward and WNEW was their peak in content. How can you say this? Their first years on XM were pretty bad aside from homeless charlie or Bernie Goets. idk what most people considered OnA's prime, but I think the first 1-2 after CBS fired them produced the most consistent shows in terms of quality.

The average person in show business gets a few spoken lines a year. Most people who are famous get one hit and that is it. Norton has multiple best selling books alone (because of O&A of course). He was a lead in multiple HBO shows like Down and Dirty and Lucky Louie. He had been a guest in dozens of shows and movies. Was requested to be in a Scorsese film. And has been on radio as a host or co-host for three decades. Yeah he has no long term recognition nor fanbase. But his highs reach extremes that almost no one gets.

That's not a great career? Almost anyone in show business would want a career like that unless you are shooting for stratospheric success like Tom Cruise or whatever.

glorified cameos and supporting characters in sitcoms that were cancelled after one season are the higher end of show business, huh? and colin quinn's an a-list celebrity because he co-starred in those grown up movies
