Exactly. This wasn't even some power move or passive aggressive play from Opie. This was literally lazy moron Norton not even reading the show prep and getting ambushed out of sheer carelessness. They would always tell the audience on air when they had no idea a guest was coming in for the show and laugh at how unprepared they were.Roland and staff sent him an email saying DL would come in but Jimmy doesn’t read it so he found out when he walked in, leaving him even more pissed
Sometimes being unprepared would lead to huge moments. Like when it was written down "don't ask about Kevin Costner" when Cal Ripken came into the show. Then Anthony sees people on PalTalk spamming "Kevin Costner!" over and over and says "what's up with this Kevin Costner thing?". To which Opie and Norton are speechless. Because Anthony didn't read the interview sheet he didn't know not to ask that question.
Then you had other times like the interview sheet saying not to ask Superfly Snuka about his girlfriend. And Opie just hammering home questions about it and finally asking if she was doing better now. And the FBI hilariously getting involved. Because Superfly was so flustered he basically admitted to a murder on air.
