wtf are they waiting for?  let the boys do what they do- well.  plus, i get infuriated when o&a speak of their timeslot as the bottom of bottom(ie, bubba). o&a's vacation has been pretty unmemorable- give the boys what they've been promised.

i like sina. how the fuck does 202 not push r&f when o&a are off?  especially on a weekend re-run?  in all honesty, r&f have been completely on point- guest-wise, topic-wise, etc...    give the fucking boys a chance! it been over a year! i want more r&f.  not less o&a; but more of our buddays!

I agree with everything M1 said axcept for one thing. It's been less than a year. It's been way too long to be stuck at their current time slot, though.

The O&A replays are really getting old.  I bought XM for R&F and rarely get to listen to them.  I know there are many threads out there about this topic, but it's time for a better slot.

i was thinking of getting xm for a long time before R&F were signed, day i heard they were gonna start on xm i went and bought it, i missed my buddays!same time slot , same show time doesnt matter, but there has to be another fucking replay besides midnight, thats fucking bullshit. so its o&a for a jillion hours then ron and fez then o&a again for another jillion then r&f fuck that dude.

agreed. anyone with any sort of standard job can not listen at 11am-2pm or midnight! it
is time to do something about this.  whatever is done has to be
resepectable (not something to piss off xm management or
o&a.)  probably a letter writting campaign to xm.  and
even for people who can listen at these times, i would imagine you
would want to hear rnf at a better time (better to hear at and better
for the feel of the show, like 7pm-11pm.)

I also would love a 4 hour show ...but the best solution to the  listening time trouble is a myfi ... they are cheaper now and you get to listen to the whole show without commercials at your leisure ... the only bad point is if you like to call in you can't because you're not listening live

Me being in the Pacific time zone the time slot they are in isn't to bad. If I time my travel schedule correctly I can usually hear the first hour uniterrupted.I really wouldn't mind if they did an evening East coast show (6-9east,3-6west), than I think east and west coasters would all generally be happy. Am I wrong?????And please more replays!!!!!!!!

It isn't too bad but listening live is infinitely better, even if you don't get to call.I don't know about expanding the show to 4 hours, the boys might be happy with 3 hours per day, but an early evening time slot (drive time on the west coast) would be great. I think there would be a more interactive audience.

I love the show. I always have. R&F are the reason I signed on to XM. I enjoy O&A but love R&F. Give O&A the morning slot on both coasts, and have R&F do the afternoon drive for 4 hours. I do not have a degree in radio programming, but to me this is common sense. You have two shows use them both in drive time.

dont mean to double post, but a link to this thread should be emailed to E-LO. he is always reading the emails from O&A fans why not us too.

I like Ron n Fez and without my MyFi, I'd never hear them. On alot of message boards there's been talk about getting another channel dedicated to "replays" and adding more show's to 202...I think that would be a great idea

I think there were plans to add more show's to the channel. Something happened and things seem to be on hold. Opie mentioned this once.

I need a time slot which will coincide with a run-of-the-mill closet toker's weekday schedule. 7pm is perfect.

R&F on @ 7pm that would be alsome.

XM wants O&A on in both morning and afternoon drive nationwide.  Thats when the audience is largest, so that's when the huge investment in those guys is most likely to pay off.  Makes sense to me.  So, I think we can forget Ron & Fez replacing O&A during the hours that encompass drive time in any time zone.  Stinks, but its reality.  Why, though -  after back-to-back O&A replays (3-7PM and 7-11PM) - do we need another hour of O&A "best of" before the R&F replay?  By that time, afternoon drive on the west coast is over and it sure would improve things for us if the R&F replay started at 11 PM eastern.

I wish there was a Ron Fez only channel. The only time I would ever change the station is during the interviews. I guess it's good that there are a lot of channels because I'm checking them out during O & A.
