MoJoPin-I agree with everything that you have said. I too don't really see XM as the BEST THING THAT COULD EVER HAPPEN TO R&F. We are all sympathetic to their horrible situation with management, time slots, staff, etc....but unlike 95% of the posts/posters on this thread, I just don't think going to XM is all that great. I like following this "saga" for the entertainment but I'm really hoping they stay and can work things out in D.C. But if the leave the area for another station and I can't listen to them anymore then maybe XM would be best (for me). There are so many variables and possibilities I guess I really don't know what I want. But having said all that, I think they don't need to be totally "uncensored" for their comedy to kick ass. Thats not their style. It's easy to do potty humour. R&F don't go in that direction often enough to ever need a "dump-free" environment to do their show. And the commercial breaks offer a nice way to break up the show's discussions.  And all the local show drama with the "usual" guests/callers/wacky interns/problems with management, weather, etc...are really appealing to a local DC/NY audience. If they go to XM are we gonna be hearing calls from BillyBob in Arkansas or Jimmy from Arizona? That may be hard to get used to. Maybe I'm just afraid of change. But the bottom line is that MoJo I truly agree with what you are saying. I think you're one of the only posters that isn't blindly screaming out "YAY, R&F ON XM!". If every single person on this board could listen to R&F live at 7 on WJFK or streaming on the net, would anyone be in favor of the XM move?

Talk radio is dead in NYCGeez, apparently my radio hasn't figured that out. Seems like there is at least five stations in New York that are talk..WABC, WFAN, WEPN, WWRL, WOR.... and their billings are huge.

I meant "hot talk", young male oriented humorous talk.  Ron and Fez would not be a good fit on any of those stations.  And Ron and Fez would never wind up on New Jersey 101.5.

While I disagree with the CBS news reporter being fired, it doesn't mean O&A are to blame.Just because they did something that created a distraction does not make it okay for the reporter to stop being professional. I've seen plenty of reporters in worse situations handle things with much more restraint. He himself is responsible for his own words and will now pay the price for reacting the way that he did. Like I said, I don't agree with him being fired, though he himself is responsible for what happened to him.

I don't agree with him being fired, though he himself is responsible for what happened to him.ultimately, he's responible -- but he was provoked ... the video is up on foundry, under "Assault On The Media" and from the daily newsChi'en was in the middle of a 6a.m. broadcast about MetroCard scammers when two men sneaked up behind him with a sign promoting radio shock jocks Opie & Anthony. For a few moments, as the knuckleheads heckled him and gave the finger to the camera, Chi'en kept his cool and continued talking. But as soon as he finished his report, he spun around and shouted at the intruders: "What the f--- is your problem, man?" If he thought the WCBS control room had already cut to tape, he was wrong. The expletive went out over the air.it's just hack, unfunny shock jock crap ...

So, O&A want the credit for the "assault on the media" - but only up to a point? Oh - that's right - "none on us." <img src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/wink.gif" border="0" />BTW, if there is any sort of media/public perception backlash from this, it does become relevant to Ron and Fez if they are thinking of joining High Voltage, and it gets back to a point I made somewhere at sometime that even if Ron and Fez go to XM, that if they are on the "extreme" channel no one other than the hard core O&A and R&F fans will really find them, really limiting their potential. It's not like they haven't been hit by the "guilt by association" before.<blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px">quote: that's such a jackass move, why fuck with someone's livlihood ... [/quote]really lame and unnecessary ... Agreed. Of course, many of the same people finding it funny that they provoked a reporter to the point they lost their job expected everyone else to be sympathetic when Paul Mercurio lost O&A theirs almost 3 years ago.Back to R&F - maybe I've enhaled too many fumes lately, but I have always thought that Ron and Fez have maybe the broadest appeal of any talk radio show out there. Aside from the Opie and Anthony fans, I also see many of the Bob Edwards listeners tuning in, or the folks listening to the Jazz and Blues stations, or even the rural 'neck listeners. Not that O&A don't have diverse listeners, but there will be many people who will read about this story, and coupled together with the other things done in the name of their show, and will just look at "202" as a place to avoid, and I just think that would suck for Ron and Fez if they shared that station.In the end - I come back around to my mantra - I want whatever is best for the Ron and the Fez; if it's moving to another market, or staying at WJFK, or switching timeslots, or working on XM, in or out of the same studio as Opie and Anthony - all of that is absolutely cool with me. They need to be rewarded by someone soon.

Regardless though, in this particular case it was ultimately the unprofessionalism of the reporter that got him fired.

The reporter got himself fired.  Everyone else is being sanctimonious.  Nobody did anything different except being a goof on TV, which you see 9 zillion times during a live shot.  What's the difference between an O&A fan and some punk in bed-stuy making an ass out of himself?The reporter lost his cool and his professionalism, where as other people would have shrugged it off.  See ya, Arthur.

Is it true that Ron and Fez are going to take over Jackie the
Jokeman's slot on Stern and then take Stern's slot when he goes to
satellite?  That's the only thing the recent calls from "Joey from
the Bronx" could mean. Also I heard Howard's marriage may be in trouble.  I can't wait until that hot social worker poon is on the market. Also, I heard that O&A got fired from their WNEW gig.  Does that suck, or what? 
 I would like to be the vanilla icecream in a Keshia/Robin sandwich.

I know this is the wrong thread, but you can't blame O&A, Nathaniel or Crazy Cabbie for that guy getting fired. It's not like someone broke into the news studio with an XM202 sign, the guy was out in public with a camera in New York City. People are always messing around people doing "On the street" news pieces. If Chi'en really thought the WCBS control room had already cut to tape, he was retarded. As soon as he said his last word he stared to whip around and yell at those guys.Now why I wanted to post:<a href="http://members.cox.net/nicksporsche/theresalwaysnextweek.mp3" target="_blank">Does this mean anything</a>? Fez telling BoBo that "there's always next week" followed by "uncomfortable silence". I'm guessing they'll be on tonight, because if they were really sure that Friday was the last show they'd be dropping a lot more hints, or just coming out and doing a "Your Mom's Box" show. It may just be them messing around with us, but if this means something I've missed (something related to Bobo that I didn't catch) could someone clue me in?<a href="http://www.xmradio.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://members.cox.net/nicksporsche/StarGuy.jpg" border="0" /></a>

It would be cool if broadcasting from DC means an announcement, but since they've done it a few times before, and plan to keep coming down to DC once in a while (about once a month I think) I wouldn't hold your breath.However...If they are coming down to DC for tomorrow morning's O&A show, they would have left sometime after the show this morning and be in the DC area in time for tonight's R&F show......so they wouldn't have to rely on the SU

Hey, looks like you and O&A got something in common!  If
they went to XM, it would not be going to O&A. It would be going to
the best satellite radio service that exists. If O&A implode, it
doesn't mean R&F would be kicked to the curb.R&F will do
whatever they want to do. It appears that whomever can currently listen
to them will still be able to listen to them. So what's the big deal?
As a non-DC resident, I certainly hope for XM because it means I can
listen to them live again. I enjoy both shows, but there is
certainly a feeling of bitterness here when Opie and Anthony are
brought up. The O&A fan boards don't get their panties in a bunch
when R&F are mentioned.

To be fair, some people on this board like O&A.  Others do not.  On the other hand, many people on the site listened to both shows when they were on WNEW, and in fact were introduced to R&F through O&A.  On the other hand, there is a chunk of the fanbase that overlaps with fans from other shows, such as Stern, D&M, the Hideout and Out to Lunch.  There are also people who have kep up with the show since thr Ron & Ron days.  It's a varied fanbase, so there will be people with differing opinions of other shows on the board.  Don't paint the site with such a broad brush.

Knowing i will get flamed for this i will write it anyway, i just hope for those on the board who have known me since i joined will take this with a grain of salt knowing my intention is not to put down or demean anyone but to ask a serious question.Do we the people on the board over estimate the talent/comedy of Ron and Fez?Now i listen to more sports talk radio then anything else now and i would currently put Ron and Fez at #3 of my list of radio shows i listen to - not a slight to Ron and Fez i simply feel that the Dan Patrick show and the Sports Junkies are better but that is because i favor more sports then comedy.  However, we continually say on the board they are going to XM its only a matter of time etc etc.  But is it a matter of time - Ron and Fez did get a good break with the O&A lead in in NY no denying that.  But after what happened and they moved to DC everyone always assumed they would be back on in NY, yet it hasn't happened.  Why is that?  Or more importantly would XM go out of their way to get R&F on XM when they are only on in one market in the entire country and as many of the NY listeners pointed out DC is no where near the market that NY is.  Would XM risk spending the money on what could be considered untested talent (untested as far as the rest of the country goes), when there are other shows that are more well known and on around the country such as Howard or Don and Mike who are on in multiple markets?Now i know people will hate this post and me and i am ready for the one line retorts.  But honestly ask yourself have we lost track of the forest for all of the trees?

Why is that?  Or more importantly would XM go out of their way to get R&F on XM when they are only on in one market in the entire country and as many of the NY listeners pointed out DC is no where near the market that NY is.R&F had a contract with Infinity and were moved from NY to DC. Before Sex for Sam III R&F and O&A were doing well at WNEW. That station fell apart.I don't know why you think XM is "going out of their way" to get R&F. O&A are the only thing on that channel. They do 4 hours a day and repeat it for 20 hours+weekends. It makes sense to put something else on the channel, so why not a good show that is friendly with O&A? It wouldn't make sense to put some lame show that would end up fighting with O&A.

considered untested talent (untested as far as the rest of the country
goes), when there are other shows that are more well known and on
around the country such as Howard or Don and Mike who are on in
multiple markets? Not
everyone has said that it was a "matter of time" that they would end up
on satellite radio - not everyone sees it as the ultimate goal,
especially considering that most of America has no name recognition
with either XM or Sirius. I think a lot of people hoped that R&F would be back on New York, but I don't think even they assumed they would.  It
hasn't happened because there is no where for them to go. There are
fewer and fewer of stations like this around the country - WJFK in DC
being one of the first, and still strongest, and the one in Orlando
that The Hideout went to being another. Pretty much, if they went to NY
(or another market, at this point) odds are it would be in a highly
lucrative morning shift - which there are few of right now.XM
would love to have them, because they offer something unique and have
proven to be able to bring in many different types of listeners; if
WJFK allowed it, I am positive they would be simulcast on XM or Sirius
this evening.  As far as NY vs. DC - yeah, New York is the
NUMBER ONE market, and it's an impressive accomplishment that R&F
have on their record that they did well there - if the station hadn't
flipped, they would still be there. DC, being the 7th, is nothing to
sneeze at, however, especially considering that it is actually the
second highest billing radio market, behind Sacramento. Untested? Ron and Fez were names in the industry long before they were discovered in New York.IMO,
the only thing really different from D&M's career and R&F's
career is that Don and Mike lucked out and got in on the ground floor
of a station that would become a blueprint across the country.Stern
leaving is already having a huge ripple effect across the country; I am
certain that things will shake out and go R&F's way soon, and in a
way that will benefit all of their fans.

quote: Do we the people on the board over estimate the talent/comedy of Ron and Fez?  Do we over estimate their Talent. No. Do we overestimate their appeal/ability to generate ratings? Maybe, but I don't think so. I follow the business world fairly closely, looking for interesting ideas.  Although I have no experience in radio specificially, or media generally, it seems fairly likely to me that XM (with Opie probably being the behind the scenes prime mover) is following a business model that Time-Warner has successfully accomplished with HBO.  Specifically, this is to take one channel in a platform and populate it with quality programming that will become intensely popular with a (large) fraction of your potential audience and create lots of buzz/hype but that won't necessarily be No. 1 in the ratings overall.  This creates an "upscale" brand that people are going to be willing to pay for.  HBO is in a lot more homes because of the Sopranos, Six Feet Under, et al. (and their earlier proprietary shows like Dream On) than it would be if it just showed movies.  <span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black; font-family: verdana; mso-fareast-font-family: 'times new roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'times new roman'; mso-ansi-language: en-us; mso-fareast-language: en-us; mso-bidi-language: ar-sa">If Opie/XM can create a must have radio channel for men with disposable income who like their dick & fart jokes to be a little more sophisticated or intelligent than what Stern or the other hacks are spewing these days they will be very successful and rich.  Ron and Fez are low hanging fruit for this effort.  Their humor will play well to the folks who listen to O&A because they're "smarter" than Stern.  If R&F join XM, and I really hope they do, I think they have their best chance to fufill their destiny - to be a nation-wide cult phenomenon.<img src="http://www.hometown.aol.com/recyclerz/myhomepage/sigpic1.gif?mtbrand=AOL_US" border="0" /> There ain't no asylum here.

Oh yeah, on O&A today they were talking about
how Jim Norton has a DC comedy show soon, and how he would like to be
on R&F but he doesn't want to ask because of how awkward it would
be with management and how they'd(management) probably shoot it down
anyway. Then they told a story about how Big Kev, who helps out O&A
with guests once in a while but isn't an official member of the show,
was gojng to be on R&F, but management wouldn't let him on because
he was "too involved with O&A."

Fast recap:  Show started with two Donna Summer songs.  The boyz are complaining about the heat in the studio and saying mgmt. wants them to start every show w/Donna.  Callers complain; Ron says "it's out of our hands."  Callers start to go with the bit and Fez starts yelling at them as if they were Mikey D.  Ron tries to calm Fez by saying it's the heat talking. "Last dance" is the last song of the break.

During a talk of religion and the power of the church, Ron just
mentioned their show, then Don and Mike, the Sports Junkies all being
effected by the Christian Right - how Stern has to go to satellite
because of it - and how O&A went to it because of the church. Was
there something on Stern's show this morning, maybe as a musical
protest? Because after the first disco song, I THINK Ron said something
along the lines of "If it's good enough for Howard..." They like bring
things back around.

Ron and Fez seem to like him, are you jealous? Ummm... what?  What do I have to be jealous about?  It's got nothing to do with radio training or if certain fans like him or whatever.  I used two examples of Heckler being responsible for bad on-air product.  That is my opinion.I listen to radio with a very open mind.  Even with the shows I do like, I don't enjoy every single second of it.  I can't stand Sandy Kane and certain other characters on the O&A show, and I don't like Heckler and others on the R&F show.  I think I'm entitled to that without being seen as having a vendetta or trying to fuck with people.EDIT: I didn't want to bring it up, but Heckler was also created some very irresponsible speculation and rumor-spreading about Ron and Fez coming back to New York on K-Rock on some of the industry messageboards, before Allen Sniffen and a few of the mods called him out on him and told him basically to shut the fuck up.  To be honest, I was never a big fan of Allen, but when Heckler is attached to the show and then starts rambling about how they are coming back, it generates false hope and leads to disappointment.  He hasn't done it lately - at least for six months - but it was still irresponsible.<img src="http://img227.echo.cx/img227/2240/ollie11po.jpg" border="0" />

No, it makes absolutely no sense that they would go to Sirius.  But why would the Sirius rep outright lie about it.  I can't understand how the customer service reps are being trained over there.  The rep put Perry on hold for a minute, and then returned to say that R&F were indeed coming to Sirius, probably around January 2006.  Are they told to just put people on hold and then pretend to check on the issue?  And then they are to return with a vague, but positive response no matter what the question was?  What kind of sense does that make?

curtoid

06-03-2005, 08:26 AM

Not that I believe it or don't believe it, but why are people so defiant that it absolutely couldn't happen - that they couldn't go to Sirius????  Jeremy Coleman (the real person who brought them to NYC), Rory Hamptons and plenty of other friends of theirs work for Sirius, just as plenty of their friends work for XM, aside from O&A. Like I said, I don't necessarily buy it - but no one knows what's going on, so I don't see how it can be so easily dismissed.I thought the goal was to get them to a place where everyone could have the opportunity to hear them?Personally I have been turned so off of XM radio the last 6 months that it would take Ron & Fez going tthere to even make me think twice about subscribing.  Are HBO subscribers so belligerent of Showtime subscribers?

We stand by our story.             Sirius Satellite Claims Ron and Fez!!!!We can only go by what the Sirius Rep told us.I don't think the Sirius rep was just telling us Ron and Fez were coming to get us to sign up because we didn't call about signing up, and Perry framed the question as if we understood they had signed a deal.  Perry first asked how to go about getting the Cosmic Circus on one of the Howard Stern channels on Sirius.Listen for yourself. The mp3 file is almost 10 minutes long. We did not want to edit ANY portions of the call. <a href="http://www.thecosmiccircus.com/clips/Calling%20Sirius6-2-05.mp3">http://www.thecosmiccircus.com/clips/Calling%20Sirius6-2-05.mp3</a>

Ok.....I listened to the clip with the Sirius rep on the Cosmic Circus show.  All this proves is that we still don't know where Ron and Fez are going.  The rep said "They are syndicated" but "Not with Sirius right now".  Then toward the end of the call he said they aren't on Sirius yet but might be broadcasting when Howard starts in Jan 06.  The final time that Perry tried to the confirm that Ron and Fez were going to Sirius the rep's response was "I believe so".  Clearly he has no more information than the rest of us do and the rep's response was just speculation on his part.The clip was fun to listen to but I don't take it as a clear indication that R&F have signed with Sirius.

Getting back to the topic at hand, I believe the call Perry and Cherry made is legit. I also believe the call can not be taken seriously. Fior one the call was made using the names Perrynoid and Cherrynoid. No offense, but when you want to get real information from a rep. it helps if you use a regular name. Also Perry was looking to get his show added to sirius. We all know they will do anything to get shows. Have they even turned anyone down? They would likely say anything to get you to sign up (you said you did not listen to sirius) and say anything to keep you interested in being added to the service.

Frankly, Ron and Fez know better than to go to Sirius. The compnay simply is a mess. The technology stinks and I've listen to their current talk shows and they stink as well. It would simply be a poor move. The only thing Sirius has is Howard Stern's name.

XM has a better logo (which is important in marketing), better technology, better programing, better advertising, a majority of the market, and is basically just better all around. Even their internet player is beter. You pick a channel fro mthe list and you are on it. With Sirius you have to go through a couple of links to even hear anything. XM is simply a better service.

So, I say it is still not known what is going on. The call Perry made, to me, is some what tainted by no fault of Perry's or Cherry's. Other (and likely more normal) calls made to Sirius tell us that Ron and Fez are not signed. On air hints point to XM, but those really mean nothing. So we just do not know.

Am I the only person who is sick of every third post being about "AFRO shows" and "putting the band back together".I love the RnF show the way it is.  I loved it the way it was back in 1999 when I first "discovered" them and I've honestly enjoyed every variation of the show since then (regardless of timeslot or lead-in).I guess I just don't see/understand the BFD if RnF are on the same carrier (or same CHANNEL for that matter) as OnA.  RnF do such a unique show.  It's really is the only one of it's kind.  It's not "titty radio" and it's not "morning Zoo with Boomer and The Nooge".  It's just a solid comedic show that is topical.  They don't really NEED anyones "help" on XM.And that's the end of my post.

That was my first post ever about those shows, and I personally
don't intend to make every 3rd post about them, so you don't have to
worry about me.Ron and Fez don't need anyone's help, that is for
sure, but if every once in a while they team up with a certain other
show, it makes for some interesting radio (not that they don't do that
own their own to begin with), but it's just fun to stir up the pot a bit is
all.

<hr color="cococo" align="left"> Begin your response here...

As I said before it is better for marketing to the public. AM, FM, XM. It fits nicely. When you want to get a large group of people who couldn't care less about what talk show is where, XM has the advantage.

No, even if O&A signed with Sirius Sirius would suck. Compare the portable units alone. 5 hours of recording time with live play capability vs no live play and 44 minutes of recording time. Sirus just does not have the equipment. Installing a car unit requires a lot of space and is a pain in the ass. XM is simply better technology wise.

If Ron and Fez did actually sign with Sirius, I would be surprised. They would have to start all over again instead of slipping into a nice ready to go audience with XM.

Basically if ONA were on Sirius they woud do what Stern is doing and have to make fun of things that make no sense. They would say stuff like Honda is gay. They wouldn't be able to actually compare the compnaies and say Sirius is better wihtout lieing. While there is an obvious bias on their part, and mine, it helps that the facts are also in XM's favor.

The actual programming between the two compnaies is basically the same if you are an average consumer. XM wins in all other categories, including specialized programing like ONA. It is simply a better company. It just so happens that ONA work for the better company.

For the past 3 years a major component of our show was missing. Now with our move to XM, we will be able to bring back our acclaimed AFRO shows with Opie and Anthony.” Not saying it's necesserily fake, but the boldfaced section struck me as odd.  Why put anything about AFRO shows in a press release without explaining it (yeah, I know, it's the initials)? -- other than O&A and R&F fans, most people aren't going to understand what that means.

I'll dissect this on why this is a hoax:The first paragraph makes no sense.  XM is a national platform.  Afternoon drive hosts make no sense when with a 3-7 ET slot with an 11-3 encore.  That makes them drive time for the East Coast only.And also, why is O&A the focus of the release?  There's no mention of Ron and Fez's history or anything like that.

I tell you guys why the release sells so well as a hoax... 1) It has the disclaimers and additional information for the last three paragraphs.  Great sell, as real press releases has that, but it can easily be cut and pasted.2) Anybody who pays attention to press releases knows that this is the normal formula for XM's press releases.  An opening crowing the sub numbers, and a quote by Hugh Panero.Why it's bullshit...1) An unnecessary focus on O&A.2) No mentioning that a national format brings them back to their loyal fanbase in NYC.  The FANS dictated that they come to XM.  NOT O&A.  Let me make that clear.3) Again, look at the quotes by Ron.  Just an incessant ass-kissing of O&A.  What gives?

Why not just wait untill tomorrow before anyone it's just automaticly dismissed as BS?  Why read so much into one post at Wackbag?  We have waited for months for word on RF moving, and now, it may be as soon as tomorrow we will find out.  If there is no anouncment tomorrow, then ripping the guy at Wackbag is warranted.  If there is a release, the doubters will look dumb.  Lets just wait and see.   As far as removing the post at Wackbag, they may just be protecting themselves from lawsuites.

My two cents about wackbag:The place is a piece of shit site, filled with bad posters, overt racism, and dumbass admins.  You could use the "one asshole doesn't make it a bad site" defense, but Wackbag is just infested with assholes.The only worthwhile section on the site is the photoshops and that's IT.Point of order: Back in the day on the original OA.com, RF.net and Wackbag had the same amount of hatred.  Now?  RF.net is considered one of the better boards, but Wackbag still has the stigma of being a shitty site.  Why?  Because the admins - specifically Stingray - is one of the biggest douchebags on the scene and he's never taken control of his site like he should.Can we please get back to the rampant and unfounded speculation?

I don't know -  that sounds just like Ron to me. I mean, all he
has done for the last 3 years is talk about how a big chunk of his
heart missing. It's always "AFRO" this and "AFRO" that. "AFRO," "AFRO,"
AFRO." I don't know what they talk about more - "AFRO" or Fuzz
Whatley.  When Frederick comes in, he's always going to Fez, "Hey!
I hope he gives us an AFRO!" Remember those? The man won't shut up.  He's got a one track mind.
