Let's settle this dispute of who is/are the king(s) of the airwaves... put on O & A on at the same time Howard is on and see who gets the higher ratings.

Just a thought...

Who gives a fuck but to answer your question: I like O&A better, but Howard would kill them. Besides half their syndicated markets they are on the same station.

Gotta agree with TeenWeek. Howard is just a part of a lot of people's mornings. I think O&A are much funnier and I'm sure a ton of Howard fans would too, but the chance that they would actually change over is small. Who gives a fuck anyway. O&A just want to be able to talk about him.



“The window burns to light the way back home. A light that warms no matter where they've gone. They're off to find the hero of the day. But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way. Still the window burns. Time so slowly turns. And someone there is sighing. Keepers of the flames. Do ya feel your name? Can't you hear your babies crying? Mama they try and break me. Still they try and break me. 'Scuze me while I tend to how I feel. These things return to me that still seem real. Now deservingly this easy chair. But the rocking stopped by wheels of despair. Don't want your aid. But the first I've make. For years can't hold or feel. No, I'm not all me. So please excuse me. While I tend to how I feel. But now the dreams and waking screams. That ever last the night. So build the wall, behind the crawl. And hide until it's light. So can you hear your babies cryin' now? Still the window burns. Time so slowly turns. And someone there is sighing. Keepers of the flames. Do ya feel your name? Can't you hear your babies crying?” - Metallica

Have one of em move to a 'sister station' of that city. I don't know about any other cities... but in Boston, I believe (not 100% sure though) that WZLX is a sister station of WBCN. I read every now & then that O & A will crush Howard in ratings or vice-versa... so lets see who would win and settle it once and for all.

They wouldn't be able to go on mornings because Howard would stop it by crying to the boss and I don't see why they would change slots there have a time slot that has and will work for them Anthony can't get up at 6 anyway.

Mel would never go for this anyway. Why would you take two of your highest rated shows in New York and put them on against each other? Especially since they are both supposed to appeal to the same type of listener. It would only hurt BOTH shows ratings wise. It makes no fiscal sense.

It will never happen and I would hate it if it did.

I listen to Howard in the morning and O&A in the afternoon. I can't wait at work until 3:00 so I can have something to listen to on the radio, 3:00-5:00 goes by so dam fast. If O&A started at 6:00am myself and a lot of people would miss half the show because even though the show is awesome I am not getting up at 6:00am unless I have to....and even then it's a 50/50 chance I am getting up.

If they were both on at the same time I would probably find myself switching back and fourth just to see what the other show is doing, not because I like one better than the other.
Personally I think O&A are funnier and have more Balls than Howard or any other radio personality(although Ferrel is a crazy dude with lots of balls too).

krahzee is right it would be corporate suicide to put O&A and Howard against each other.

For me it's Howard from 8:00-10:xx (one good thing about Howard is he usually goes longer than 10:00 which shows dedication) , other crap during the day, and O&A from 3:00-7:00.

But I don't understand why so many O&A haters come on the O&A board to bash them??? :confused: You guys are just like the people that call the show saying how much it sucks but listen to the show daily!??? :confused:


The man with the plan!
