Daniel Negreanu - not an O+A fan

[Kevmath]

Anthony of XM's Opie and Anthony was in today's WPT Invitational. While he was playing, Opie and whomever was with him had the "pleasure" of interviewing him. From his blog:


On the way out I did the most disturbing interview I’ve ever done. Some satellite radio station asked me to do the show so I obliged. I sat in the chair and the radio hosts had no clue who I was and knew nothing about poker.

They asked me a few questions and then went off on a vulgar exchange that was absolutely appalling. I’m a poker player and they wanted to do was curse about nasty sex and random garbage. I found the hosts to be extremely rude and vulgar, a welfare version of Howard Stern.

they got kicked out of beantown for pulling the incredibly brilliant prank of saying our mayor had died in a car crash earlier in the day.

i heard this and thought it was pretty funny. the guest host was joe rogan (from fear factor) and rogan was the one who really was vulgar, not opie. i can't even repeat what he was talking about or i'll get banned, but it had something to do with negranu's ex, which probably pissed him off

Opie & Anthony were never funny. They came on the air in DC and I listened to them for about a week before realizing how terrible their show was. I've never heard so much dead air on the radio in my life -- which was probably the result of them not having anything funny to say.

O&A are the best thing that i've ever heard on the radio.

the show can be hit or miss some days. Some days it's brilliant, other days there are some laughs and some boring spots. For the most part though they are head and shoulders above the competition.

repeats the same line howard has used to protect himself for years.

I can't believe people don't view stern as being pretty much washed up. His show became relateively bland within the last 5 years and it's just tired now.

I'm disgusted when howard talks about moving to satellite to save radio. As if he's the pioneer of the move. He'll be on "the little doggy company" (sirius) in january of 06. By then O&A will have been on satellite for 16 MONTHS. They are the true pioneers of unedited radio and this is another case of stern trying to take credit for something he is really just following.
