It does attract people to XM who want to listen too more of O&A and the weekend shows.

XM would also be stupid to accept payment for letting their personality's go to another forum and do what they pay them to do, that would be just stupid. Between O&A and Ron & Fez broadcasting on terrestrial radio they would never mention XM Satellite Radio on their shows because XM would never want their name to get out when they are not paying for the advertisement. It would be much smarter pay CBS,NBC,FOX,Comedy Central and all the other broadcast channels to do XM's advertisements for them. Terrestrial radio is also doing so good, it's at it's highest popularity in years!!!! Those satellite radio's, IPOD's and that thing called the internet is a dieing fad. It's so easy to get good ratings these days because of the popularity of terrestrial radio. I can't figure out why ALL the ratings have dropped in the last couple years, they must be sending out the ratings questionnaire's to the wrong markets? Yep your right, the shows are the same. All those ffattsoo's are listening to Niel BBortzz while sitting on their fat bbotums eating their tv dinner's and bluburrys they bought from Walbounddds. That must be why O&A suck. :lol: BTW. Did you know it takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile?

I do agree that the O & A show just isn't the same since they started doing terrestrial + satelite. However, it's better than the alternatives :wink:

I agree the show has changed, but I do like the Free FM show. It takes alot more talent to do that type of FCC safe radio show. Thats were you have to give Stern the credit he's due.
I have never listened to the Free FM version of Ron and Fez but I can't imagine it would be all that great because the XM version isn't that great but I'm not a big Ron and fez fan. If this merger could go thru I think the ultimate line up would be Stern, O&A and Danny Bonaduce on one channel.

FFFFFFFFFRUMPKUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who doesn't like boardroom Jimmy? Ben, Ron and Fez are great, you just gotta give them a week of listening to the show to get with the flow. Thats what I did and now I am glued to my XM from 12-3 daily. Way different show than O&A, but still good IMHO.
