We start with a classic Opie rant: explaining the high-velocity "muscling out meatballs" and why they’re like t-shirt guns at a sporting event. Then, we dive into the political storm with comedian Ron Barba, the man behind the "MAGA for Mamdani" movement.​We break down the anti-establishment energy shared by both Trump and Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s bases, why Trump’s ability to "trigger" people is his greatest comedic asset, and the real reason our country is so divided right now. It’s a raw, funny, and logical look at the new political landscape of 2026.

​Well, well, well, we are BACK. 500 feet above the pavement in NYC after a detox way out east on Long Island. It is F U Friday and we are joined by the legendary Ron the Waiter and Comedian Tony P (calling in from the lawless state of Florida).​We thought we’d heard it all, but Opie is officially floored by the absolute insanity of RFK Jr.’s animal obsession. Forget the bear cub; we dive deep into the newly resurfaced story of how the now-HHS Secretary (in 2026) chainsawed a dead whale's head off, bungee-corded it to his minivan, and drove his kids 5 hours with "whale juice" spraying into the windows. We cover the full RFK Animal Greatest Hits, including the roadkill raccoon penis surgery and the Central Park bear cub prank.​Plus: Ron the Waiter makes the bold claim that mermaids are absolutely real, but can’t provide any proof. Opie challenges him to "Just Prove It!" and the debate explodes. Tony P brings the heat from Florida, riding hard for the MAGA movement and Donald Trump, while Opie is venting about insane gas prices that are crushing everyone.​

​Opie is out east on Long Island overlooking the ocean for a high-energy session with comedian Ron the Waiter and Chris (Fish Guy Photos).​We kick things off with the rare "Corpse Flower" bloom—why does nature produce something that smells like a rotting carcass, and why are people lining up to sniff it? Then, the Great Pool Debate: Ron has no fear of public pool water, while Opie remains rightfully disgusted by the "human soup."​Things take a turn into the environment as Ron tackles global warming, much to Opie’s chagrin. Chris (Fish Guy Photos) joins to break down the reality of the ocean: why balloons are a death sentence for sea creatures, the madness of banning straws while balloons fly free, and the prehistoric weirdness of horseshoe crabs.​Plus: Ron’s unwavering belief in Bigfoot, aliens in the deep sea, and the scientific fact that lobsters communicate by peeing out of their eyeballs.​
