Sweet deal, Wonder how much he's getting.

Excellent! I am sure they found out that the Bubba Army was bigger than they thought.

Looks like I am keeping my sub.

Good. This means O&A keep their own channel.

Looking forward to more O&A - Bubba wars.

LOL... I tried to give those two a chance when I had a rental one time. Horrible....

O&A just like Bubba are an aquired taste.

I don't think you can listen to eaither one as a first time listener without saying "what the hell is this."

I like O&A for Jim Norton, and like Bubba for Manson and his Ned bits.

Both are good readio if your a fan of that type of radio.

I think people from the mid-west / south dont get O&A... more of a NYC/Northeast thing. Likewise, we dont get Bubba. I can't stand Bubba personally, his radio voice sounds incredibly phoney and manufactued to me. But to each his own.

I am so happy he is staying!

Power Pig!!
