Today on the XM side of O&A there was a couple of times where the show went right into commercials in mid sentence. They never made mention of it but did vaguely say how they couldn't talk about the merger when Kevin Smith was on the phone. Maybe my MiFi fucked up the recording or something but I was wondering if anyone else noticed this. If they did please start wild speculation here...

just happened online for the replay. I came on here looking for answers. Nothing on Orbitcast either. Happened during a 2girls1cup joke too.
just grabbed my audible download and it's only 2 1/2 hours instead of the usual 4 1/2
won't listen until tomorrow so i can't say much more

I think something happened and it got sent to commercial. Then Opie decided to fuck with everyone and come back in with "...and that's all I have to say about the merger." He even tricked Kevin Smith.
The 202 stream has been fucking horrible lately, and this is just another problem.

It happened a second time and a third I think after that.

And it sounds like they just fooled Kevin Smith again.

Kevin knows the show and played along with the bit. You could tell when Norton asked Than to fix the problem that it was just an xm issue. Shows Opie's radio skills to make a bit out of a problem.
after reading the audible description of the show, it says that due to problems the full show will be available on monday

What is the deal with all of the technical issues lately? They seem to be getting worse and worse.

I heard Mafia Life Chris bought the satelitte and is directing all the traffic to STI. He'll give it back if Opie calls in and yells at him though.

My Inno has intermittent cutouts that I originally thought was a Norton farting bit but is just the audio dropping and some crackling. Happens during R+F too.

lleeder is a rube. You could tell opie was messing with people but I think kevin smith, being on the phone, didnt know what was going on.

Can't you guys see? This is the "soft sale" way of censoring the XM side - due to upcoming merger.
Or, maybe not.

I just ran over my XM receivers with a truck in case you're right.
(actually, I do have a dead Skyfi3 receiver I can donate to the next futile gesture if anyone wants it)

I agree but to fair to lleeder he doesn't really get to hear the xm side of O&A in its entirety. He drives a truck and is in and out of it alot during the 9 to 11 hours. He was only asking for alittle help figuring out what happened.

XM channels 202 and 121 have been cutting out intermittently the past few days. I'm not experiencing the same problem with the music channels. Others have commented on this problem.

The cut outs fucking suck, and it's not the signal, it's the replay. I heard a lot of them listening to replays online.
Can't XM get anything fucking right? They give Led Zepellin a fucking channel before our Ron and Fez channel and now they can't even keep 202 on the fucking air. Thanks assholes.

These are unfair listening conditions. We should strike.

The worst part is when a joke is missed and when it comes back everyone is laughing but me!

It's really stange how "perfect" the timing has been.
I smell sabotage........
That was just swamp gas coming from around D.C. due to normal cyclic warming for this winter interfering with their uplink to the satellites. Nothing important happened that day.
There is nothing to worry about.
