2008-09-03 Opie and Anthony: Rich Vos vs. Mike Birbiglia Part 2 of 4

[LurkingLurkerLurks]

Radio is dead, his "comedy" is a joke. Birbiglia is a real comic.

[mondaywar]

vos was a bit out of line, btw he bombed more times this show than birbiglia

[CoolerKing37]

Birbiglia blows.

[ghostwhiskey]

"heres the ting"

[LawsonComedy]

Vos bragging about accomplishing all this shit Mike hasn't, does Vos realize he's 21 years older than mike? 21 YEARS. And on top of that, Mike is way more famous. There are probably people that like Vos more than Mike, but not too many. Seems like Vos is jealous that he doesn't have Birbig's career.

[angela1894]

@LawsonComedy THANK YOUUUUUU. That's what I was thinking as he kept saying he's been doing comedy for years. Mike is WAY more famous than him and he hasn't been doing comedy as long as Vos has been. Vos has been in comedy for decades and he's STILL a 'middle'

[LawsonComedy]

@angela1894 True that. I started doing comedy in Feb of 09, I'm only 20 right now. That means if vos started as young as me, he's talking shit to a guy that wasn't even born for 2 years before Vos started doing comedy. That's insane. Maybe Vos should find Bo Burnham and talk shit to him also.

[Jguthro]

Vox is an idiot, but mike is a hack

[kalpal67]

@Jguthro yeah like apologizing is kind of a pussy move, he shoulda let him have it

[Redsparrowe123]

Man, Voss is a cunt. What a shit head. Way to attack a new comic trying to make it. Clever or not his anger is misplaced, and he's not nearly as good as he thinks he is in his own head.

[otisbroth]

"We've been doing third grade comedy."

[MilesofColtrane]

I like Rich much better then Mike but there are times (and this is one of them) where he gets very defensive very quickly and it comes off (to me anyways) as desperate flailing.

[shadwboxr]

Vos came off as a very frustrated comedian. There's clearly some jealousy issues there.

[Freshhhhh1982]

Vos was in the right. But fucking brutal.

[SRRNYRNYM9486]

i will say this, birbiglia needs to write some new shit. his journal stuff is gettin real old

vos is a nice guy though

[jesusharney]

"yes, a drowning man will drown at the blade of a sword, yes, yes, yes." lol gettin all philosophical.... LMFAO like anyone would care if i killed 9 or 10 people in the crowd

[singulairty5]

Its nice to see that rich does have a vicious offensive game

[Lamtitude]

Vos - "You respeck someone like me." ( :

[mikejdem]

"benedick arnold" Vos rules!

[markymarkbb]

"we're aquaintance" wow Vos has a real way with words

[Chnamanjx]

It's an act I think, a good chance. If it's good radio, it's probably an act.

[s0undtribe]

this is not an act.. did you hear part 1? this is all REAL shit and its extremely personal and behind the scenes with these 2. this was a fuckin real fight. If you listen close, you can tell Vos has been thinking over all of the things he's been saying for some time before this. He has all kinds of biting remarks ready to go. Really specific stuff that doesn't just come to people during a rant. He took shit he's been thinking about and let it all out.

[davidpetersonakashar]

acting dumb is all part of his act, just like with norm macdonald. both are brilliant comics.

[livevil1989]

Norm sucks dick in stand up, bad comparison.

[angela1894]

I respect Vos now. All those people who say Vos are stupid are out of their mind, Vos is very quick-witted

[nkslnkvl]

vos is really quick, he's just out matched when all the other guys are in the studio because vos isn't an asshole like patrickie, yimmy or colin

[kMason221]

@angela1894 a couple of his calls seemed like direct ripoffs of jimmy's

[mgm8822]

"You'll never, ever accomplish what I've accomplished in this business." WTF is Voss talking about. Does anyone on the planet know his name other than O & A listeners?

[mgm8822]

But I still like the guy.

[xcalibur4ever]

@mgm8822 Ur right. I know it's been a year but this is my first time hearing this. Vos sounds like somebody's bitter grandpa in this clip. He loses all sense of humor.

[craze6663]

@mgm8822 he's pretty much known as "that white comedian who does stand up for black people"

[mondaywar]

@craze6663 thats exactly right

[coolcatjerk]

@mgm8822 vos stinks but birbiglia is losing to the dummy.

[KlaxTheUnholy]

Why is Rich acting like he's untouchable simply because he's appeared on a damn radio show more times than someone else....How insecure do you have to be? Is it possible that he just feels threatened by a young popular comic like Mike? This coming from a lifelong comedy fan who's laughed at both these guys in the past. Get over yourself Vos.

[ToplessArt]

Mike tried to improvise, it was a petty joke. Vos' reaction to a meaningless, mediocre joker is totally uncalled for and pointless.

[rqbuchanan]

Man, Vos must be getting old to be taking another comic seriously. What'll he do if his sense of humor goes the way of what passes for his mind?

[hunghunk2006]

hey man, love your videos as well as fobias....but i've gotta disagree, Vos sort of has a point (oh my god what have i just said!) but he really did try to talk down on him a bit, like the regular crew (patrice, that idiot bowbbby , bill burr, etc) he kinda had a point, Vos doesnt take it seriously, look how he does the IQ tests, the Dumb-Off, lets the camera film while he gets those awful Cocaine teeth get drilled on, etc he really isnt half bad.

[rqbuchanan]

I met Vos briefly, and I agree: he's hilarious, and generally a nice guy. But Vos has always had this weird assumption that he can bully a comic who isn't an O&A regular if they knock him a little too much for his own comfort. He tried this with Mercurio, DiPaolo, Norris, etc. all before they were regs, and all of them threw it back in his face. It's as though he's testing the waters, even though it's only ever worked on Mike DeNicola.

[hunghunk2006]

Had a beer w/him at Catch A Rising Star in Rhode Island when he performed, guy is a pretty decent class act. Even if he did dress sexy to get free drugs
