Opie, Carl, and Sherrod move into their shiny new Westwood One studio on grimy 42nd Street… and immediately start roasting the dim lights, shaky tables, and Civil War-era ghosts of Times Square past. What follows is pure chaos: dodging homeless chaos outside, “catch and release” hot tourists, Cross Bronx Expressway survival stories, the fat kid who fell through three floors into dog shit, the kid who dropped a chunk of sidewalk on a duck family, and Rhonda lighting fireworks in a cat’s ass. Childhood psychopath spotters, Fresh Air Fund weirdness, Vietnamese lightning survivors, Catholic priest shade, grandpa’s shoplifting jacket, and a late dive into Big Pharma zombies — all in one unhinged, laugh-out-loud episode. Classic Opie Radio: zero filter, maximum stories.

​What happens when a specific culture takes over an entire town? They fixed Carl's candy machine.  We dive deep into the fascinating world of the Hasidics—turns out, you can learn a lot about a culture while you’re just trying to satisfy a sweet tooth.
​Inside this episode:
​The School District Scam: Carl exposes how a "rich" neighborhood can afford massive sports complexes but can’t figure out air conditioning or decent school lunches.
​The Great Moon Plot: A look back at the time Russia and the USA actually considered nuking the moon. (Spoiler: We’re glad they didn't).
​The Vegetable Manifesto: Opie has had enough. It’s time to stop calling obvious vegetables "fruit" just to satisfy a technicality.
​Flat Earthers & Neighborhood Watches: Dealing with the "fringe" members of society, from people who think the world is a pancake to the heroes (or villains) of the local watch.
​It’s comedy, it’s chaos, and it’s the only place you’ll hear about peanut-throwing incidents and school lunch corruption in the same hour. Hit play and get the real story.
