Since Opie and Jim Norton were forced to continue producing radio shows after SiriusXM fired Anthony Cumia, the pair have been in the studio four days a week attempting to figure out what their show will be.

Now, after a few weeks without Cumia, the two have a much-needed, well-deserved week off.

The pair announced that they would be off all week during last week's shows. While they are gone, the channel will be airing repeats pulled only from the post-Cumia shows.

Since the firing, the only mentions of Cumia on the channel have been by the hosts and their guests. No old bits or shows featuring the fired host have been played.

Cumia has successfully moved on launching a subscription-based podcast and videocast, "The Anthony Cumia Show." Opie and Norton remain under contract with SiriusXM through October.

The two have openly talked about not knowing what's next. Cumia has hinted at a morning show reunion but intends to keep doing his own program in the afternoon.
