Ep748 - Bill Burr, Opie Radio, Jerry Banfield, Artie Fletcher, MLC, Chad Zumock
3d ago03:20:50Tap to summarizeToday we start with the revelation that Nikki Glaser did not send Chad $500 for his special. Shocking I know! Cardiff did some great investigating and proved that once again Chad has made up a lie that wouldn’t have made him look good even if it were true. Artie Fletcher’s standup set is getting more and more bizarre. Crowd work for your DVD special isn’t a good idea but local references to cater to the audience in front of you might be even worse. KC Day was a good sport putting together the Trek Off for Vinnie Paulino’s consequence and he made a heart warming tribute song for us. Jerry Banfield made every mistake possible with the love of his life and he’s finally ready to talk about where it all went wrong. Unfortunately he learned to stop giving us all of the details on his vlog. Good takeaway but not good for WATP. Kevin Brennan did one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen - he watched Adam Busch acting on a sitcom with Jon Lovitz, Danny Trejo, Cheri Oteri, etc. and decided that it proves Adam didn’t get paid and that he’s a failed actor. Bill Burr had Julian Casablancas, the lead singer from the Strokes on his show and he couldn’t be been less prepared. It’s awkward and embarrassing. Opie had Tony P cohost with him on Monday morning and shuts down any chance Tony had to promote his comedy. When Ron joins on Tuesday he tries once again to hit the goal and the reason he needs $100 this time is insane! Megan and Annie join us for a round of “Is It Gay?” and “Opie or Burr.” We get caught up on Spotify comments, reviews, and your voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep747 - Misery Loves Company, Scorch, Opie, Artie Fletcher, Jerry Banfield
1w ago03:01:58Tap to summarizeKevin Brennan’s mental illness is on full display as he screams at Flimsy Greenberg for creating a dashboard. Chad Zumock calls into Misery Loves Company to brag about asking successful comics to fund his new special. For some reason life is going well for both Kevin and Chad because Pat Dixon doesn’t own a car. It makes sense as long as you don’t think about it. Vinnie Paulino joins the show to check in on Scorch with his cohost B.O.B. from 95X. Every story Scorch tells is based on being poor. Artie Fletcher’s stand up special includes anecdotes about employees at the comedy club and people in the audience he knows. Why would that be on a comedy DVD? Jerry Banfield has come up with yet another new business model. After an update on the Christian woman he’s completely fallen in love with, he explains a new service he thinks he’s going to charge $20,000 for. Opie’s new friend Erik Marino is somehow less funny than Ron, Tony, and Opie. Opie’s on fire because he had to poop a lot after eating sugar-free ice cream. We finish up with Internet News and your voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep746 - Kevin Brennan is Mental! Jerry Banfield, Opie Radio, Chad Zumock, Bryan Callen
1w ago03:12:12Tap to summarizeWe start off with Chad Zumock issuing a challenge to Pat Dixon and he includes “anywhere, anytime.” Pat immediately accepts the challenge, calling Chad’s bluff, and makes the Zman look extremely foolish. Fortunately for Chad, some super famous and successful comics donated to his GoFundMe. Which I totally believe. I received the sad news that John C Dvorak passed away this week. We play a couple of clips from his show, No Agenda, about what a prick Richard Marx is/was. Christian Bladt makes our “Cringe of the Week.” Artie Fletcher does some of the most hack jokes about TV commercials and manscaping you’ll ever hear. We check out Bryan Callen getting embarrassed on Jesse Lee Peterson’s show. Jerry Banfield has been destroyed by the woman he met 9 days ago. Who could have seen that coming? Fortunately, he also found Jesus, which is convenient because this chick is super into Jesus. Kevin Brennan needs everything outside of Misery Loves Company to be a failure. Any success in entertainment is somehow a slight at Kevin. What are we talking about? Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Adam Busch's acting career, and Sam Morril's stand up career. I'm not kidding, for real!! Kevin Brennan is mentally ill. Opie is getting ghosted by celebrities and it’s really shaking his confidence. Ron claims he’ll continue to be Opie’s friend even after Ron becomes famous. Opie doesn’t care. Megan and Annie join us for rounds of “Is It Gay?” and “Opie or Burr.” Megan has some recent Spotify comments, Annie reads some new reviews, and we finish with your voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep745 - What's Our Podcast?, Opie Radio, Jerry Banfield, Cumia on BYB
2w ago02:32:47Tap to summarizeThis week we’re checking in on Kyle Mooney and Beck Bennett, two SNL alums who are maybe the most forgettable cast members ever. Kyle Mooney is especially terrible and he proves it on this podcast that relies on schtick and nonsense. Trucker Andy joins us to discuss where on the doll Kyle touched him. Jerry Banfield has once again fallen in love. Oh no. I have a feeling this won’t end well. Jerry is once again falling in love immediately. If this woman watches this stream she is going to file a restraining order. Anthony Cumia went on Quadfather’s show, BYB Podcast. Even though Ava was on, Ant did a great job of explaining why Chad Zumock will definitely steal the money he was given for his GoFundMe. Opie had another F U Friday with Ron and Tony. Opie is getting more confident with these zilches. He’s trying out material. Somehow, he’s still the least funny guy. We finish with Internet News and your voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep744 - Kathy Griffin, Artie Fletcher, Opie Radio, Jerry Banfield, Aaron Imholte, MLC
2w ago03:01:54Tap to summarizeThis week we’re checking in on Kathy Griffin who actually has a weekly video podcast. Of all the people who you’d think would have an audio-only show, Kathy’s on the top of the list. She is still fighting a battle against Donald Trump that our president is unaware is happening. She was on broadway performing in some play that totally bombed and got to take a private jet back to LA with Rosie O’Donnell. If I could sum this up in one word it would be “insufferable.” A listener mailed in Artie Fletcher’s stand up “special” on DVD. Artie is able to squeeze so many hack bits in it’s almost impressive. Adam Busch has a supercut that really proves Kevin Brennan has morphed into a bitter hasbeen who is almost identical to Stuttering John. Jerry Banfield is critical of our critiques. Hopefully he listens to us this time because he’s about to make the same mistake that put him $600k in debt in the past. Opie is trying the reverse psychology beg that got him to his goal last week. The problem is, there just aren’t enough people watching to make this work. Steel Toe is trying to turn not allowing me on his show into a win. No one is buying it because it doesn’t make any sense. Megan joins us for another Aaron Imholte “Gay Thoughts,” a round of “Is It Gay?” and Simon’s “Opie or Burr” game. We finish with Spotify comments and your voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep743 - Steel Toe, Kevin Brennan, Chad Zumock, Opie Radio
3w ago02:34:46Tap to summarizeThis episode is a little bit different as we combine This Little Piggy and WATP. Yesterday I went on Chad Zumock’s show with Bob Levy and by most accounts, it didn’t go well for Chad. We start by seeing how Kevin Brennan is dealing with his guy showing up unprepared and getting embarrassed. Chad seems to think it went fine. Wild! Pat Dixon and Moody both join the show as we do a deep dive into Steel Toe’s week, starting with his retarded assessment of my debate with Chad. Aaron won’t let me come on his show and debate him which is somehow a win for the Toe? We also watch him miss goals by a lot and Moody breaks the news of a brand new restraining order against him from Kayla Rekieta. Yikes! Chip Chipperson breaks character to laugh with Jim Florentine about Artie Fletcher. Opie has a new friend, Be A Man, who is a total cornball. But don’t worry, Opie has a crazy story about taking his dog out to poop in the middle of the night. He’s fired up about it. We finish with your voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep742 - Scorch is BACK, Opie & Ron, Chad Zumock, Jerry Banfield, Gallagher
3w ago03:15:55Tap to summarizeScorch is so awkward interviewing women. He seems like a guy with no game trying to get laid. But he also can’t get away from his old, terrible radio bits as he treats us to a round of Scorch’s Psychotic 6. Cringe of the Week features Elijah Schaffer fighting with his producer while being belligerent on his own show. Myster Magenta has a great new song parody. Chad Zumock reluctantly drops the copyright strike against Patrick Melton. He then deals with moderator drama and couldn’t make it less interesting. The Portcast with Ron Bennington is extremely compelling. We find out why Gallagher had to move in with Artie Fletcher’s mom. Jerry Banfield was manically depressed that a woman doesn’t like him the way he likes her, so he comforted himself with hours of communicating with AI. He then completely changed his business model once again and it just keeps getting worse. Opie actually figured out a way to start making money. He’s using reverse psychology and it’s actually effective! Ron is continuing to piss me off with his lack of gratitude. Megan and Annie join the show to play Megan’s “Is It Gay?” and Simon’s “Opie or Burr” games. We finish with comments, reviews, and voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep741 - Joe Rogan w/Tommy Lee, Opie Radio, Chad Zumock, Jerry Banfield, MLC
4w ago02:06:20Tap to summarizeThis week we’re checking in on Joe Rogan because he had Tommy Lee on his show. Tommy is a trip. Dude still talks like it’s 1983 and it somehow gets Joe to revert to his level. They both have deep philosophical thoughts you could only hear in a freshman dorm room. Jen from the Jingles Department joins us to chat about Chad Zumock crying over his GoFundMe hitting the goal. Uh oh, now he has to make a comedy special. Emphasis on the word “special.” Kevin Brennan is once again wrong about everything. But at least we learn that he’s not trying to put on a funny show. Jerry Banfield has given up on one of his goals but it’s okay because it’s going to give him time to put out way more crap. Opie has the entire Friday gang on - Ron Berman, Tony P, and Erik Marino. They never stop making fun of Ron’s shirt and it never gets old. We finish with Net News and voicemails.

Transcribe →Ep740 - Kevin Spacey on Bill Maher, Opie Radio, Chad Zumock, Jerry Banfield
Jul 202:27:25Tap to summarizeKevin Spacey was a guest on Club Random with Bill Maher this week. This was an important interview that Bill showed up completely unprepared for. He did no homework and got very high before the interview. It’s also not surprising that Bill considers himself an ally but actually comes off as a little homophobic. Wait until you find out what Kevin Spacey has been doing for a living for the past few years. Darren Paltrowitz and Lucy Tightbox both join us to learn that the only thing Kevin is guilty of is loving too much. Ethan Ralph thought he ended his show and we got to see him use his hands to eat bagged tuna, mayo, and Doritos like a primate. Chad Zumock struck Patrick Melton’s channel even though Patrick didn’t do anything that Chad hasn’t done a hundred times. The way he justifies it is insane! Jerry Banfield is getting the worst business advice possible from AI and he’s convinced it’s the solution to all of his problems. Opie is obviously watching all of the shows and is afraid of the Dabbleverse. He should really just embrace it. It's crazy that he thinks the only way to make money podcasting is to beg his small audience for donations. Maybe his AI assistant told him that? We play another round of “Is It Gay?” and the Opie or Burr game with Megan and Annie. We finish up with your voicemails.

Transcribe →Minisode - Opie's Venmo Scam Exposed
Jun 2902:03:28Tap to summarizeI'm joined by Erik Nagel and Adam Busch to discuss the crazy Venmo scam that is currently taking place on Opie Radio. We start with an amazing Jerry Banfield compilation that really demonstrates his insanity. Then it's on to Opie and Ron avoiding the questions being posed by the chat about how much money Ron has made through his Venmo.
