After Cumia was fired from SiriusXM in July 2014, Hughes and Norton continued to broadcast and grew to become the hosts of Opie with Jim Norton, for the duration of which time the channel was renamed Opie Radio. Norton returned to the radio with Hughes and Cumia on XM Satellite Radio, an uncensored satellite radio assistance, in October 2004. Cumia said Norton contributed a "darkish and perverse" facet to the exhibit.
