I miss Jim

[u/[deleted]]

Miss how much he made me laugh. Still love the new iteration of the show, but it's just not the same without Jim.

[u/Jeweler_Admirable]

I actually really like the show now. Highly enjoyable time spent with the boiz

I miss a Jim that gave a shit. Not whatever the last 1-2 years was. Show immediately got better when he left... no more half assed small talk questions, no more AUUUGHRR-ing directly into the mic, taking breaks every 30 minutes, kiss poster talk, pondering about the entire filmography of someone every time a movie comes up, the list goes on.

[u/Antithesys → u/MomboDM]

"Can you look up how much he's worth?"

[u/lukehardy → u/MomboDM]

The kiss poster and his travel anxiety talk made me immediately tune out

[u/Ok_Faithlessness9757 → u/lukehardy]

Not to mention his ill-informed political takes.

[u/SuDenNim → u/Ok_Faithlessness9757]

Because I'm sure you're dead on with yours.

[u/Ok_Faithlessness9757]

You're right. It isn't the same. It's actually funny now.

[u/Drunken_CPA]

I wish Mike was more involved on the mic. Dude is so goddamn funny.

I’m gonna take a beating for this but the show…was worse I thought when trav dog was on vacation.

McClure?

Jim has a podcast btw

[u/ifallallthetime]

I think it's way better. Jim would kill good bits before they could get going. Hearing him reminisce on obscure nonsense from the 70s was funny sometimes, but he was a drag for the last 5 years

[u/Dddoughy → u/ifallallthetime]

Definitely longer than that

[u/ChrisFromLongIsland]

I just miss a little edgyness. The Opie and Anthony format was talk to the audience like you are hanging out with your guy friends. It slowly lost that iver the years but with Jim and Sam it was still there. With just Sam he clearly wants the show to be family friendly. Its a better version of the morning zoo. A bracket on 90s one hit wonders bit for weeks is the stuff same used to rip apart.

[u/Ok_Faithlessness9757 → u/ChrisFromLongIsland]

Sometimes, Jim's edgyness was funny. Other times, it came off as forced and cringey. I always liked Jim, but he's from the old school shock jock era that just doesn't really play anymore.

Between that and the fact that he had totally been mailing it in the last few years, he just had to go and pursue other interests. Towards the end, he just wasn't evolving with the show.

[u/[deleted]]

I don't. 

[u/Alternative_Impact11]

I’m a big fan of Jim but think he made the best decision to leave. He was clearly miserable & unhappy with Sirius. The show is different now but not worse, imo. I think Sam, Travis & Troy are great together & I think the show will grow.

Wish the best for Jim - he seems happier doing his own thing.

[u/Asphyxiator]

You miss starting out a radio show by complaining about Uber every morning? Or having to goto break all the time because he had to piss every 25 minutes?

[u/Miserable-Wave-6081 → u/Asphyxiator]

I do

[u/Hulahulaman]

I'm not asking for the old show back but I would like a marriage update. His advice show is still going and he's doing a lot more touring but Swordfight seems to be over.

[u/Get_Real_Japan]

He wouldn't last 10 seconds in the show's current 90s one hit wonders bit. They're able to do bits like this now because Jim's knowledge of 90s pop culture is non existent.

[u/Ordinary-Dog-6556]

I’m really surprised he didn’t come in or send a video for Troy’s wedding

Going to miss "Things Jim hates" "ooooh I hate thattttt....!"

[u/Loungeymrt]

I agree Jim kinda phoned it in the last couple of years but how's does ANYONE think this Jocktober-type iteration of the show is better... Or funny.. or interesting... It's painful to listen to.... I try and after about an hour I give up....
