Why do my friends just give me weird looks and not laugh when I show them opie and anthony bits?

Because most of it is not funny.
I put it on because there's ton of it on youtube and it helps me sleep to hear voices talk. But most of it is pretty boring desu.

Radio is a commitment that most people don't want to bother listening to. I'm in the same boat. Whenever I tried to show clips from the Howard Stern show or O&A my friends just don't have any interest in listening to anything longer than 4 minutes.

You also have to get to know them as characters, which will take more than one listen. I remember not even being able to differentiate their voices when I first listened
the funniest parts of O&A are comedians shittig on each other, but how can you enjoy a slobber mouth vos joke or a fat bob kelly joke if you don't know who they are?
I remember playing ramooooooones for my friends. No one laughed
does anyone remember phil hendrie? he was like the first person that I heard that would troll people on air way before 4chan existed.

Yeah, I used to listen to his radio show every night. He got me into talk radio.
A guy at worked showed me one of those rap battles of history videos and i had to pretend to smile and snicker so it wouldnt be awkward.

>They don't laugh

They don't know the people. The first time I heard Opie and Anthony, I was annoyed that they were talking over Louis CK, who was the only person I cared about in the video. It took a couple months of listening to only the Louis CK shows before I actually figured out the humor and started enjoying Jim, Anthony, and Opie. Now I listen ten hours a day. It's not easy to get into them, but once you do, it's an entire world of fucking radio lore and stories and running jokes.
I used to listen to Howard Stern on a pirate radio station. I tried to listen to the shows recently and couldnt understand why i listened.
Most people who listen to these shows are either horny, bored or depressed.

They are plebs

>does anyone remember phil hendrie?
It had its hits and misses. I used to listen to the last part of the show before C2C.
>there will never be any new O&A
Once I played a clip of Jimmy yelling at a caller to a girl. She just got upset and asked why I like listening to people arguing

It's because the content is usually just bull crap that they want to talk about. Try showing them LOVELINE the content is always interesting and based adam is always funny.

there will eventually once they both have no other options and become desperate enough
