Was the shizo Bill bit the best bit the boys have done on XM?

[patbattlefield]

If you don't agree post which bit you think was better and why. Note: I said XM to avoid posts comparing the XM show to the KNEW show.

[Monster_Rain893]

I say yes, especially hearing the boys talk about it today. Not only was it genius the timing was perfect, even to the sane mind it seemed so fucked up. Then the guy is just sitting in there through Ron and Fez, and then they get into it... and the fucking beekeeper. If that beekeeper had given him any water he probably would have swallowed a whole bottle of pills. That was priceless

[ParanoiaKid]

not even fucking close, i cant believe this is a question

[Deadbent]

This thread has aids.

[Smokezilla]

I don't think it was the BEST that they've done. I enjoyed the Tony Danza Show bits just a cockhair better. I about shit my pants when the Beekeeper shit was going-down. . . priceless, Gentlemen. Let's see Howie top DAT SHIT!!!:icon_mrgr

tony danza was good, but i think the creativity that went into this made it better. danza is a close second in my book.

[jules]

great bit,and i liked it but not the BEST bit they have done on xm

[bucket-of-aids]

I voted no because even though it was hysterical, I've liked other stuff even more, like the Tony Danza bit.

BUT, if schizo Bill would have killed one or more people there, or lost it somehow, then it might be in the running.

[ThaDRD]

I thought making fun of the retard football game earlier in the week was funnier...the Schizo Bill bit was "ponderous, fucking ponderous!"

[zappafred]

It was good but there are others that I would rather listen too again. I thought it went too long and that R&F struggled to keep it going at times. But I look forward to catching again as sometimes I like the bits the second time around.

[GreatAmericanZero]

i think its the best bit theyve done in their career...but its new and still fresh in my mind...i remember when Jay Mohr's Gay phonesex was teh best bit i ever heard....its kinda hard to compare it with some of hte other bits though because it really is different

[jules]

yeah man,that God damn danza bit goes in the hall of fame

[Jerry1]

Was a very weird bit but not their best bit. They have done better. Tony Danza, old Lucky Strike and other cig commercials, Al-queda Press Your Luck, watching people pick up stuff off the sidewalk(Anthony and Bill Burr had me in tears!)and oh yeah one more....the crown jewel....SUPERBALL!!

[BillyDubbs]

stalker patty in moustraps naked for rent money is ridiculous. I also am a big fanof the sidewalk fishing. I feel that they should bring that bit back as soon as physically possible, and try to have mijmy and patrice(the bodyguard in a britney spears video). They murder people when throwing insults

[patbattlefield]

...I also am a big fanof the sidewalk fishing. I feel that they should bring that bit back as soon as physically possible, and try to have mijmy and patrice(the bodyguard in a britney spears video). They murder people when throwing insults

great bit i'm wondering if that got held up for legal reasons.

Oy yeah have Patrice and Bill Burr. Burr killed me with the line "Is tha the key to your dreams?"

[BillyDubbs]

Oy yeah have Patrice and Bill Burr. Burr killed me with the line "Is tha the key to your dreams?"

when he called the black lady a sell-out i was rolling on the floor laughing right out fucking loud

[Hydrosludge]

It was definitely one of their top ten this year. The best bits are great three times then never done again.

[XMScott]

Nope,

It was good, but far from great.

[Drunk Dick]

I thought the guy was a complete jerkoff and a waste of about 12 cents on XM standards

[ih8Uboo-boo]

Nope,

It was good, but far from great.

What he said...

[Beeman99]

It was good, but there have been better. Wheelchair Fred ass fucking himself was better, Sidewalk fishing was better, Abortion Propoganda was better, etc. I know I'm going to get flamed, but it almost sounded like this Bill guy was faking it a little bit just so he'd get noticed. Anyone who keeps saying the shit he was "I need pills" and " I need more therapy" knows what is going on. Personally I think if he was going wacko like he seemed to be I would've expected more loss of control on his part, more yelling, ....ing, etc. But then again, it's just me.

[Drunk Dick]

Overkill and Bobby Blitz....Nice...

[weakside]

Impossible question. It's like trying to pick your favorite child. They are all fucking brilliant one way or another.

[The O&A Van]

Steve.From.Yellowstone.

[patbattlefield]

what i'm noticing here is that even though not everyone agrees with me they don't really agree completely on any other bit either, guess its just personal preference.

[Don West]

Classic bit. I listened to it 3 times already on my Tao. I still think Steve from Yellowstone holds the record for best bit on XM (mayber ever). Then there's the superball and street fishing.

[Gonzoid]

It was funny for a while, must admit though it got a little tedious. It was not in my personal top 20 XM moments. Danza, Unborn Fetus, Pat O'Brien tapes, the 1st Afro show, porn on the street with Bill Burr, those are ones I thought were alot better off the top of my head...

[Maynard K]

Hell no. Far from the best.

[BigFeet]

Not the best bit by far, but maybe the most inventive. They made a good bit out of what should have been shitty radio. Bravo

[FreeTheCricket]

Ummm... how about adding "Didn't hear it" to the poll.

Fucking college. I was in class the whole time, then forgot to record the replay. :arrrh:

[Action Blackson]

It was ok... but probably wouldn't even rank in my top 50.

[Amazingkaddycap]

I don't know what the Best bit is on XM they have done. They continue to entertain and Suprise me at every turn. Too concede that this is the best would shit on there past efforts. I don't give a shit, O&A are the best and thats all I need

[Tommy Ceez]

I voted YES, not because it was the funniest...but because it was the most inventive thing I ever heard on a talk show...its like the first time you saw Memento

[Digital_Trauma]

It was a really good bit and of course creative. I still don't know for sure if that guy was as "crazy" as he seemed. The way he kept plugging his myspace page was a little tedious. Ron had some great lines when Bill appeared on their show.

[patbattlefield]

I voted YES, not because it was the funniest...but because it was the most inventive thing I ever heard on a talk show...its like the first time you saw Memento

i got more out of the bit the second time i heard it just like when i watched memento. i think i may even sign up at audible just so i can download this bit.

[Kub]

Not their best, but a very good bit nonetheless.

I go back to their WNEW days and I feel the last few weeks have been the best radio O&A have done over a short period of time. Stalker Patti mousetrap, mousetrap bombs, Super Ball, American Mess, drunken audio, Bill vs. Patrice vs. Mancow, SchitzoBill..... all classic stuff. Go back a little further, add in Twitchels and Big A with the news.

Keep up the good work, boys.

[YourAmishDaddy]

The funniest shit on this show just occurs randomly. I'd throw that session with Laura Corn in there too. Anthony and that damn Greaseman impression gets me everytime.

[BrianFromIowa]

Am I the only one who felt a little sorry for the guy?

It was good, but I think the street fishing and the Danza shit was the top two, in my opinion.

[BravoSierra]

Am I the only one who felt a little sorry for the guy?

I hear ya man. He wasn't really going with the bit (IMO), but at the same time, you could tell he was kind of questioning himself. However, everytime I heard Jimmy say "so... what do you like to do when you're not being mistaken for Brian Dennehey?"... I fucking lost it.

I trust the boys in treating him well when they go off air (or whenever he finally left the stuido). No matter what they say on air.

Best bit: Danza.

[EdC]

I don't think it is top 50 so it is hard to know where to begin with better shows. I go with real shows personally rather than 1 where the guy was obviously on to the bit as evidenced by his speeding up plugs after the first one.

Real shows:

John Valby in Steinway
Norton vs. hair lips
Everybody vs. Dragon Wagon
Big Doodies Ben
Shutting down the Danza msg. board
.
.
.

[Old_Gravyleg]

I don't believe it was even real so no it is not the best.

[Farm Flufer]

I liked how they took it to the Ron and Fez show. Ron realy ran with it. Not the best bit ever though.

[jimmythejokeman]

I tuned in about 30 minutes before end of the worst show since they moved to xm. I listened to phycotic monotone speaking of another mentally ill person. Sure the guys taunted him and made him think he was even crazier than he already thought, but it never went over the top. I never thought for a second he might take hostages or hurt himself. He sounds as if hes on enough meds to ever have that happen. If he started turning over desks there would have at least been a pay off. Better bits than this?..... too many to choose from. Anything with Bill Burr in it for one. (I know he was there, that was probably the problem.) Sorry Billy boy, you are funny but you cant stoop to the level they need you to.Angry typing guy bit blows this piece of shit bit away.

[Gott]

Guys help me out...Anyone know what day the Tony Danza show bit happened on where Danny was waiting in line with a phone and got people to talk to Anthony impersonating tony? I'm looking for it on auduble.com.

Thanks!

[bathroom sentry]

nope...it was mostly an act

sidewalk fishing was a classic...i need a key to unlook the door to my dreams

[Gott]

Is it just me or is Patrice not funny 75% of the time? His fake over-done laugh kills so many jokes and he says things that many times don't even make sense.
He is very loyal and seems like a great guy, but man...he really isn't very funny.
Thoughts?

i think he's funny (although he's no bill burr), but i do agree his laugh/noise level is terrible for radio....

[Skitzobill2]

this is skitzobill. I am actually schizophrenic and I have seen things that aren't there and recently may have had problems in that area. It is just like a beautiful mind. I figured out that my imaginary people that I saw knew too much about me and therefore must be part of my subconcious mind. by the end of the show I was terrified that someone called the psych ward on me and they were coming to take me away.

[patbattlefield]

do your opening line for us.:action-sm

[Skitzobill2]

its on a video on my myspace it has to load first time through and takes a while after that it runs fine.

[countzero]

If you doubt that that guy was losing his mind just d/l the video from the R&F portion of the show, and pause it when he gets up to leave. I think his brain
was steaming.
All in all it was one of the best moments in radio history, especially how Anthony cleaned up the end and said everyone elses lines and laughed at them.
I just thought holding it over into R&F was a bit much, and they were more
than a bit harsh. Way to turn funny into just plain cruel.

[iSpeakEloquent]

i can think of at least 10 bits that were better, it was good though. However withouth the Brian Dennehey thing it would've probably been a lot worse.

If you don't agree post which bit you think was better and why. Note: I said XM to avoid posts comparing the XM show to the KNEW show.

When were they on KNEW?

[fothermucker]

I think it was the hardest I've laughed on the XM show.

[Bralio]

Mildly amusing, yes; the best bit done on XM? Hardly. Of course, defining the best one isn't that easy either... I'd have to agree that the majority of the best humor comes in the one-liners and off-the-cuff remarks ongoing throughout... without a doubt, it's usually Jimmy and/or Anthony that make me damn near hit the car next to me...

[MarshmallowRain]

Hoping that tomorrow's show will be a good one, sure that they'll take some heat from callers saying that they're pussy whipped for taking valentine's day off. At least they put some thought into not taking both off, hoo hoo probably is taking both valentine's and president's day off. Didn't hear the skitzo bill bit but hoping can catch it on a replay here sometime. Wonder how people rank that show compared to with superball? Anyways hope girlfriend has something up her sleeve for valentine's day, ending the day with some hot lesbian sex never hurts.

[Lukin]

Fucking with Schizo Bill was great but its really hard to top the Danza bits

[UnOriginal]

Ramooonnn has stolen my heart on this question.

[whoisisthis]

not even close



the Danza bits trumps all

[antwanp]

It was excellent but I don't know if I would call it the best. Funny as hell though. That bit was one of the many definitions of Cringe Humor.

-Antwan L.

[patbattlefield]

well, according to hoo hoo math i was right; this is the best bit:action-sm

[roche]

When were they on KNEW?

Not sure, but I know they were on KBAB out of Boston. :)

[Beeman99]

I heard about what happened with him on R&F but I never heard it, I'm just going by what I heard on O&A. I'm still struggling to get into R&F, they are good, but they can't seem to keep my attention for more than about 10 minutes. Not saying they suck, so don't bother flaming me, just saying I prefer the bboys far more.

[iridium130]

best bit i've heard so far, but then again, i'm a relatively new listener.

[countzero]

I'm not going to flame you, I don't really listen either. I just thought they
were harsh and not nearly as funny with Bill. Although watching the video
and seeing where Opie kept disappearing under the table was hilarious.
No doubt he is a black ninja.

[FamilyVirus]

I only started listening to the show about one month after XM 202 became free. I had never heard of them before or I would have paid. So in that short time, I personally thought the Skitzo Bill bit was hilarious. My favorite moments were the beekeeper and the way Bill Burr kept coming "back from commerical"

[guitargod2112]

Is the single, hour long segment up on audible? I looked for it but couldn't find it. Just the full show.

[TheBattleVirus]

Nothing tops the Danza bits for me. Ant's imitations to the people on the line, getting in trouble with Danza Security, and shutting down the messageboard were all classic.

I also loved a Bad Guest Day they did with the guy who wrote some sex book, where they played the Hole clips as if she was part of the show and Ant called her Betsy, while doing his hack radio voice, since he is co-host of The Gregg and Tony Show. I have that bit saved; I thought it was fucking brilliant when Ant says, "Take me off mic" to Ope in the fake voice and screamed to Betsy, "Hey cunt, shut the fuck up."

[turdfrgsn]

it was a work of art

and it WAS the funniest thing they've done since being on xm

i defy anyone to find a better example of improv at its finest

I agree, judging from the Holiday Worst of Special (since I am a new fan).
I still find myself laughing out loud just thinking about it.
Every day.

[Premarital Sex]

Twitchels was a better bit

[countzero]

Twitchels was a better bit
Twitchels as a personality is funnier, and "Jump" and Twitchels
betting is funny, but the way they broke Bill's mind is way funnier,
and also way sadder.

[patbattlefield]

Twitchels was a better bit


twitchels was ok, but this was a far more creative and involved bit. and the cringe factor was way higher with this bit.

[GymShoes]

There's two dudes posing as SkitzoBill.

The first is at myspace.com/schizobill, he's not the real deal, however I don't think he's posing, he just happens to have the same nickname.

The other guy started schizobill.com and he's asking for viewers of the page to send the webmaster money. It's not the real Skitzo Bill (aka Marty), it's ANOTHER guy. I did a whois lookup for the domain and this guy is the one posing as Marty and asking for money:
his email - richstroud@yahoo.com
his myspace - http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=42045977

Marty doesn't need to be ripped off, it costs a lot of money to maintain his beautiful eyelashes and Brian Denehy look. The real Marty is at www.myspace.com/skitzobill

[Chaza]

Yeah, I liked the Tony Danza bits, and the bad guest bits, with Steve from Yellowstone better.

[TreeFortRichard]

I have to go with the first time jimmy tore up a book of an author...I love that bit...But as others have said there are quite a few gold medals in the bunch...

[bym051d]

Skitzo Bill was definately one of the best I've heard. My favorites though are Tony Danza and one other.

[Frogacuda]

I'd say it's top 3. Dunno if it's #1, but it's way up there. Definitely one of the most innovative radio bits I've heard. The Danza bit was hysterical too, though.

[BLACKIEhugeHANDS]

i've been hearing on the show the last couple days that the bit itself which is about an hour is available on the site by itself... i've tried to look for it on audible a few times but i about give up. i found the whole show but not just the part i want. anyone know the link?

May not be teh catchiest stuff, but you gotta respect the creativity

[billb914]

not best but top 10 - add in the Ron and Fez "post game show" and it moves up to top 5

[Flea_Man]

Great, yes

Classic, yes

Best, no

[handtruck]

It's pretty damn close.. This and the danza bit made me laugh more than I ever have in my life. I am one of the yes votes since I think it's a tie.

[countzero]

poker chips... goddamn the fucking poker chips
nearly killed me.

[The Stormrider]

"The Warmest Blanket" was good one. A little short, but gold nonetheless.

[ruggedo]

I'd put it really high on the creative and inventive list. Not a bit very many people could pull off,and each member added something to it. Bill,Jimmy, Opie and Anthony all get credit there. You can throw in Ron and Fez too with the first half hour of their show. I still really like the piano bit tho from real early in the XM show, I laugh just thinking of those songs being played in the Stienway Showroom.

[toolbox38]

It was a good bit but they have had much better

[Hamster Nipples]

I am a bigger fan of Twitchels than schizo bill. Plus anything with Patrice would be funnier. But thats my $0.02
