Buckle up for a hilarious and unfiltered episode of the Opie Radio podcast featuring Artie Lange, Jim Norton, and Vic Henley! Artie takes the mic and runs with it, diving into a whirlwind of stories from New York's chaotic traffic and tunnel terrors to the mind-blowing concept of driverless Ubers. The crew swaps tales of wild road gigs, including a bizarre encounter with a club owner's nude drawing racket and a driver dodging county lines because of an ankle bracelet. From gambling heartbreaks to unhinged rants about Bill Cosby, Gilbert Gottfried's roast heroics, and the Playboy Mansion's legendary grotto, this episode is packed with laugh-out-loud moments and classic Artie chaos.

We start things off in Austin, TX where Brendan Schaub has been let down by his son's performance on the baseball diamond. Remember when I said it's not smart for Bapa to rely on his nine year-old's athletic achievements to justify moving the entire family to Texas? Fly on the Wall had Charlie Sheen on and Emilio Estevez was kind of on the show, too. Chad Zumock received a compliment from Adam Busch and didn't know how to process it. Steel Toe is going to serve jail time and his cope is that it's actually going to be a great time and he probably won't want to leave his new friends. Stuttering John has three friends who are mad at him and poor Ava has to console him. Anthony Cumia can't wait to show up to court for StutJo's defamation suit. Opie just posted video of Stuttering John and Dave Attell guesting on Opie with Jim Norton. It turns out O&A breaking up wasn't Opie's fault at all. On Opie's morning stream we learn that Opie's daughter had a birthday party and a very special gift. Opie also has a hilarious bit about female hygiene products and Ron the Waiter is calling out Opie and reading private text messages. Megan joins us for a round of Is It Gay?, Annie is on for another edition of To Poke A Dabbler, we tease the next episode, read recent reviews and comments, and listen to your voicemails.  Support us, get bonus episodes, and watch live every Saturday and Wednesday: ⁠http://bit.ly/watp-patreon⁠ ⁠https://watp.supercast.tech/⁠ Watch this episode here: https://youtube.com/live/IXOltWd_si0 Learn more about your ad choices.

Jim and Matt return from the Labor Day break with recent Dana White's Contender Series standout Donte Johnson and the great Jon Anik for today's episode of UFC Unfiltered.Fresh off a short-notice first-round knockout that secured his UFC contract, Johnson reflects on his rapid rise. Noticeably slimmer than the 297-pound collegiate defensive lineman who first walked into an MMA gym, the undefeated 6-0 prospect explains how the best version of himself may be found at light heavyweight or even middleweight.Between interviews, Jim and Matt trade picks for this Saturday's UFC Paris card before welcoming Jon Anik. The voice of the Octagon discusses the middleweight title picture, reflects on his hilarious cameo with Michael Bisping in The Naked Gun (2025), and shares what it means to call TKO's splashy entry into boxing with the Canelo vs. Crawford megafight — live on Netflix September 13.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There is no replacing Matt Serra. But when the champ can't make the show, it's never a bad idea to get another champ to fill in — and that's exactly what today's Unfiltered episode delivers with Forrest Griffin talking UFC 319 w/ guest callers Geoff Neal and Chase Hooper. First up, 11th-ranked welterweight Geoff Neal reflects on his inspiring journey from a life-threatening ICU stay in 2020 to competing at the highest level in the UFC. He breaks down his upcoming matchup with Carlos Prates and weighs in on whether “MMA math” applies when comparing each of their recent losses to Ian Machado Garry. Then, Chase Hooper — just 25 years old and already entering his 12th UFC fight — talks about taking on Alexander Hernandez, a dangerous striker with only one submission loss in 24 pro bouts. Usually on dad duty 50+ weeks a year, Chase shares how his locked-in fight-week mentality has brought out his best performances since moving up to 155 pounds. Having seen many of UFC 319's fighters up close in his role at the UFC Performance Institute, Forrest offers sharp analysis for a comprehensive breakdown of the sneaky-good matchups that round out Saturday's stacked card.

On today's episode of UFC Unfiltered, we break down the massive Paramount + TKO deal — a jaw-dropping 7-year, $7.7 BILLION U.S. rights agreement starting in 2026. First, Jim and Matt catch up with middleweight champion Dricus Du Plessis — gearing up for his fourth straight title fight and third defense. Dricus weighs in on Saturday's epic UFC 319 title showdown against Khamzat Chimaev and shares whether he thinks his unique style is finally getting the respect it deserves. Next, the guys chat with viral slam KO artist Elijah Smith. Now $50K richer after sending a message to the bantamweight division, the 22-year-old talks about his journey from football to MMA. In the back half of the interview, Elijah's ex-UFC fighter dad joins in to share his perspective as Elijah's trainer and mentor. Listen in as the guys break down the wild action from last weekend's UFC Fight Night and make their picks for Saturday's UFC 319 card!

With a fight card to look forward to, Jim and Matt invite a pair of all-action veterans on to the show in Andre Fili and Roman Dolidze. A longtime friend of the show, Andre Fili returns to UFC Unfiltered for the first time as a father in one of his most thoughtful interviews yet. He talks about the life changes since welcoming his son Valor, how fatherhood has shifted his mindset inside and outside the cage, and his upcoming matchup with Christian Rodriguez. Then, Roman Dolidze joins ahead of his middleweight main event against Anthony Hernandez. He talks about rebounding from back-to-back losses to a strong win streak, what's at stake this weekend, and what it is about the Georgian UFC fighters that keeps them so driven. Stick around as Matt and Jim make their picks for Saturday's UFC Fight Night card!

Today's episode of UFC Unfiltered delivers a powerful mix of rising talent and personal triumph as Jim and Matt welcome UFC featherweight prospect Austin Bashi and DWCS hopeful Jimmy Drago. First up is Bashi, fresh off his first UFC victory — a slick first-round submission over John Yannis. He reflects on bouncing back from his debut loss, chasing a dream he's had since childhood, and what it was like mimicking Alexander Volkanovski in Diego Lopes' camp. Between guests, Jim and Matt break down highlights from UFC Fight Night: Taira vs. Park — including standout performances from Tatsuro Taira, Chris Duncan, Esteban Ribovics, and more. Then, Jimmy Drago joins ahead of his Dana White's Contender Series debut on August 12th. The Yonkers native shares his incredible story — from losing his father, a 9/11 first responder, to battling addiction and surviving eight overdoses. With sobriety, discipline, and grit, Drago turned a goal of just winning one pro fight into a legitimate UFC dream — and he's one win away from making it real when he faces Ty Miller on the first DWCS card of 2025.
