The best thing that ever happened to them was Howard Stern putting a gag order on them. It gave them sympathy from listeners, and it got people to listen to them thinking that they were going to respond to something Howard had said.

Well, clue us is. Who are some of the awful radio jocks that they make fun of?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That is one of the best segments I've heard on radio in a while.
In the Chunky Radio segment they decided to make fun of the posters on this board.

Using radio message board members as fodder for their schtick is nothing new for Opie & Anthony. During their original local show on WNEW-FM, Allan Sniffen's New York radio board was usually ground zero for material.

But they were good back then.

True, plus they were local. I doubt Philadelphia listeners wouldn't get the Dentist schtick.

DToTheD, You doubt Philadelphia listeners wouldn't get the Dentist schtick?

I think that's a double negative. Regardless, I listened to a handful of the youtube
Jocktober breaks and they're awful. They're exactly why O&A suck now. It's 10 minutes
of inside jokes, 2 mins of the actual bit and 5 more mins of inside stuff.

Back in the day if they wanted to get sidetracked with Jim Brewer or Mario Cantone
or any of the other great comics that would be up there it was awesome. And they got
sidetracked and off topic a lot.

Now it's trainwreck radio at it's worst. It's ironic with the Jocktober stuff, because
O&A THINK they are the coolest radio show in the world and incapable of producing
bad radio.

If you're going to do that bit, DO THAT BIT, don't spend 75% of the time making fun of
the guy that put the clips together!
