View Full Version : Clones Turn On Mainelli...
ShockedScott 02-20-2007, 02:09 PM ...and want off of FreeFM.
Last Friday the clones were pissed that their PD, John Mainelli sent an email with suggestions to improve their nearly-dead show.
Here's a clip of their near-meltdown. This is unintened cridge radio. It's actually embarassing hearing BoardOp whining like a little girl and Anthony acting like a nine year old. Of course the requisit Stern references are there...

snake4812 02-20-2007, 03:19 PM these guys are stupid fucks i hate them
snake4812 02-20-2007, 03:41 PM those fucks stole the brazilian wax bit?!?!?!
TheBlueprint 02-20-2007, 04:15 PM welcome to "free" fm! :rofl:
Tom from T.O. 02-20-2007, 04:48 PM Since their last disastrous quarter of ratings, someone at SFN already predicted that they will pretend that they are fighting with management. They will do that to amke it look like they quit instead of being fired, because on a national scale, that show will end, it is inevitable.
TheBlueprint 02-20-2007, 05:33 PM I couldn't get through that clip. They are god awful
snake4812 02-20-2007, 05:52 PM they stole the brazilian wax bit.... that is such a blatant rip. i never knew anything about these guys and thought SFN just hated them because they rival howard; they really are horrible rip off artists, fuck these guys
jms397 02-20-2007, 06:32 PM They suck. No one listens to them. Game over, Sirius wins thanks to Howard.
JKGroups 02-20-2007, 06:48 PM Thanks for the clip
At least when Howard bitches he makes it funny 9 of 10 times
I can't imagine someone turning on their radio for laughs & hearing that & wanting to keep listening
30+ minutes of nothing funny does not equate to building a fanbase on FM
These clones really do not get it
JKGroups 02-20-2007, 07:26 PM Can someone explain exactly how OnA "always win in the end"?
They acted like asses & were bitch slapped by Mel & Howard at NEW & then fired for being "shock jocks" and going over the line with lame stunts
They could not get a job on FM so went to XM and once they were there XM lost momentum to Sirius (due to Howard) and got an ass whooping in the last 5 quarters
They picked up Howards sloppy seconds & the ratings are tanking on FM
They have an uncertain future with the XM/Siri merger & the fact that FreeFM wants the show to change so they can get ratings
WTF did they win ANYTHING?
:p
chippercookie 02-20-2007, 08:18 PM I can't wait til these fruits our out on their asses, as nice as Stern seems I hope he goes DeBella on their asses(no talent at that). All the shit they talk on Stern & us the fans I can't wait til their fat dumb pests have nothing to do; we'll see some with Chris Hanson, I wouldn't doubt it. They had 35,000 subs for them READ THAT 35,000 subs, thats nothing.
In conclusion fuck O&A it'll be funny when they can't broadcast anywhere.

When you can't win in the present, your only alternative is to project some wishful future that never arrives. :D
JackiesAppleBag 02-20-2007, 08:32 PM Damn, that was disappointing. I was a pretty regular listener in their WNEW days but when I tried to listen to them again through Direct tv they actually inspired me to get Sirius. Once again, when lately I've been feeling like Howard is mailing it in I realize how much better the Show is than anything else out there.
bbeylis 02-21-2007, 06:30 AM [QUOTE=JKGroups][B]Can someone explain exactly how OnA "always win in the end"?
That is because they define and redifine what winning is. i.e. if anyone fights them on the air "they win" because they got mentioned. If they don't fight them on air "they win" because they are afraid to mention o&a. They will mount an attack on a station and 3 calls get thru out of fifty and they declare it win. Howard quits and leave his station, "they win" because they get to sit in his old station, (once removed). Their ratings suck, "they win" because it is someone else's fault because they shared one hour out of four. The list goes on. It is easy to win when you determine what winning is.

True, and the only ones that haven't caught on yet are their pathetic 1 share in Chicago and their army of 10 who still listen while everyone else has changed channels or switched to Sirius.

Great reasoning
I tuned them on today to try & be fair & I hear them trashing Bubba & then a bit called Boardroom Jimmy that was painfull to hear (& I like Norton)
otherone4life 02-21-2007, 11:58 AM I guess that push CBS was giving them (Letterman, Leno, etc ..) will come to an end. Prediction - firing from the merged SIRIXM within 48 hours of the deal closing yet spinning that they were happy b/c they can focus all their energy on the "free" gig (which will end shortly thereafter.
Tom from T.O. 02-21-2007, 01:55 PM BoardOp reveals something on the tape: He listens to Howard religiously. He used Howard's over-used catch phrase "The fact of the matter is...". BoardOp is owned.
Mainelli is right about one thing, you can't serve two masters at the same time, Satrad and testicular radio. It leads to a content schizophrenia that confuses the listener. You made your bed, now lie in it.

thats probably true theyve been getting more confrontational. but do they really want to be in caustic environment of stern fans??
also.. they tried to do the waxing bit... and now theyre planning Pest radio (ala pretzels/rogny/spize/chowderhead/fabsabs and wicked awesome)
lazy fs they are
and recently opiss said he was 32.... in reality he's 42

already happened... a guy who runs 1 of the fan sites arrested on child porn pics
superman1983 02-22-2007, 10:25 PM It has all crumbled for the Clones...
Failure on every level and have just been beaten. Best part is watching those fans try to figure out what is going wrong and pointing fingers for their awful show.
Suprised they would back them at all when O&A made that deal to go back to that free FM garbage.
Love the fact that nobody listens to them or even knows they exist...
ShockedScott 02-23-2007, 01:42 AM Listened to Monday's show and some of Wed. They seem to be working under extreme, self-imposed, pressure. Throughout the show(s) they repeatedly mentioned they could well be jobless and how maybe they'd be better off if they'd not been the uncooperative radio-assholes they were/are. They strongly contend they will never work with Stern.
I honest to christ think that DLR's ill-fated show was better then theirs. Every time I hear them, they are (trying to) explain why a previous bit or show had failed, because you, the unsophisticated radio listener, didn't 'get' it.
The show is now the Jim Norton X3 Show. They think he's funny and both have adapted his speech pattern and delivery. The casual listener is repulsed by the constant Stern-bashing. Non-Stern fans don't give a fuck, the rest get pissed. Only pests give a fuck! All 1.7 of you...
They will blow themselves up with a 'stunt'... Forever!
otherone4life 02-23-2007, 05:33 AM Seems that's the only way to get their "cred" back ....of course, when no one cares anymore, does it really matter? O&A always WHINE in the end ...

real good post.
as far as them blowing themselves up with another stunt, I am not too sure. they are stupid, just not sure they are retard stupid. the one thing with them going back to regular, shitty radio proved is, that they are not worth all the aggravation and money. they want all the fame, notoriety, respect, fans, money and power that Stern got/gets but with a far inferior show. this is where their stupidity comes in because they cannot figure that out.
they are now in the progress of talking themselves right out of radio. so it's not even going to come down to Howard getting rid of them. a decision to shit can them is going to be made long before the merger is finalized.
"WAR STERN!!"
sternfan73 02-23-2007, 09:24 PM listing to this SHIT. how monotinus.boring stupid horse shit fuckwads.
if this shit is true , the fffags need to listen to manelli.
turned it off in 5 minutes.
ponderous man fucking ponderous.
superman1983 02-24-2007, 12:06 PM Agree completely on the speech pattern and delivery... They have emulated Norton completely on that.
Years back i had listened to them some during afternoons and hearing them recently, that was easily the biggest difference. Norton is funny on his own but when they all talk the same and deliver jokes the same then it is beyond awful.
Plus, so much of their show is built around hating Howard now that they couldn't possibly end up working with him. Because of that, they'll not even try and rather quit.
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 05:46 PM panicky petes ...these guys suck
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 05:47 PM admitting the show sucks lately ...they suck

otherone4life 02-24-2007, 05:56 PM complaining about the heat in the studio ..they listen to howard enough to know that studio is COLD ...these guys are pathetic!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:01 PM Crater face just called himself "multi faceted" ....oh god, this is pathetic!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:03 PM they think they're "making a buzz" but don't want to hand out their bumper stickers anymore ....my god ..delusional ...and Mainelli told them to be more like Howard ...too funny
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:04 PM Greg says they get "water cooler talk" from some egg nog stunt no one has ever heard of ..and Mainielli tells them not to censor their terrestrial show so people think they're missing stuff ..
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:05 PM Claiming howard's ratings dropped during his last year when CBS got 100 mil. plus in ad dollars ...assholes!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:06 PM direct rip off of stern ...giving a guy a brazilian wax ....hacks!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:08 PM ripping on the PD ..hmmm where did that idea come from
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:09 PM back to preston and steve ..play in the baby pool with preston and steve crater face ...you two suck!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:15 PM more preston & steve ...two other hacks who these guys are going to "feud" with ....don't try to take on Stern pussies!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:18 PM they don't know whether they want to be edgy "shock jocks" or the new and improved (for terrestrial radio) "multi faceted" talents ..suckers!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:19 PM now they are martyrs ready to end their careers b/c they can't do the show they want ...pathetic pussies!
otherone4life 02-24-2007, 06:26 PM I think that sums the 36 minutes I just wasted up fairly well ...
PS ..the google news reference is about some loser fan who had kiddie porn ..O&A get no publicity for anything they do on their show like ..I don't know ..get ratings or subscribers ...LOSERS
adjuster 02-25-2007, 10:18 AM I agree with the earlier post. The DLR show was better than this.
otherone4life 02-25-2007, 12:18 PM 36 minutes of delusional ranting ...
Brock Sampson 02-25-2007, 01:57 PM Weren't these the guys who begged to get back on Terrestrial radio. Wasn't humungous asshole Opie the guy who said "Anything we do on our Sat. radio show we can pretty much do on terrestial". Funny, I don't need mastertape theatre, I can just listen to them and hear Howard show 2 years ago when he said they wouldn't let him say anything.
