Opie and Anthony were my sole influences and it reflected in unfortunate and cringy ways. I collected clips for a number of episodes from 2004 and 2005, showing the kind of people I was friends with and the discussions we'd get into. Something I wasn't banking on, was all the evi...

This episode is another rough one. Just about every story deals with abuse; abusing children, sexual abuse, and police brutality not without a heavy dose of transphobia.
