They are sooooo boring. The use of old radio audio and news items is hackey and other bits just plain gross. Trying to fill 5 hours is obviously too much for them. Ron and Fez are much more enjoyable. Ron is brilliant. The way he can talk on almost any subject is amazing. I would definitely miss that show. I could care less about O & A. They are sooooo boring.

How radio books work is, you actually fill out a form and say who you listen to, it's not some electronic tracking thing - it's a poll. If someone in NY fills in "Opie and Anthony", that listener goes to the FM side (CBS) automatically, NOT XM. If the program is not listed on any FM station (like Howard), then it goes to satellite. So, that OandA number is less every single listener in every city they are syndicated - you know New York, Boston. That's a lot of listeners. Look it up - it's a fact. They are the #1 show on XM, which has MORE subs than Sirius - they don't have 216,000 listeners. Stop it. The Virus channel cume is calculated LESS their terrestrial listeners.

I have to say that I don't know of anyone who admits to be fans of O&A but I can't begin to count all of the Stern fans I know and have come across just in casual conversations. If Sirius/XM keep them I think its a good thing because the company might have 150 thousand more subscribers with their little Army.
