This is the complete history of the Opie, Anthony and Jimmy conflict. It starts with the first on-air fight with Opie and Jimmy and move through the Greggshells v Human Garbage exchange all the way to Opie's eventual firing from SiriusXM. I've tried to include every relevant broadcast in the conflict, keeping only the shows where one of the principle players was talking. Let me know if I missed anything crucial and enjoy the melee you peckah suckahs!
