I suspect it was the hope that old O&A fans and hatelisteners would tune in. It’s an odd time to have his show on but it probably beats the minimal amount of listeners they were getting prior to him starting up his show. They gave him one of the lowest risk timeslots available and only got a 236% bump because everyone has moved on from O&A since like 2015. I think had they moved Anthony over to WABC right after him getting fired, it would’ve been a bigger deal. Doing it a decade after just makes him look like a desperate has been looking for an easy paycheck, which to be fair is what the deal is here.

Cumia said the money is absolute dog shit. Without specifying numbers, he said that during their first conversation they said “We can pay you [X]” and he assumed it was a per show amount. When the contract arrived, under compensation he saw that [X] was the annual salary. So he’s only getting something stupid low, like $5k for the whole year. (There is likely to be an additional amount based on syndication uptake, but that won’t be a big number either. This ain’t TV.)

I think he’s doing it because he finds it fun and exciting. Regardless of compensation or anything else, it’s a healthier hobby than downing shots with Geno Bisconte or his Nazi beard. Especially with getting older, people need to stay active and involved in activities they find meaningful in order to have some quality of life. Sitting his ass on the computer playing video games until 4 in the morning doesn’t count.

This just reminded me of what my grandfather did at that age when he was retired with a handsome pension: help other people. That’s one thing you’ll never catch any of these bastards doing.

My Old Man was a Retired Steelworker, and my sister found him in his apartment on Monday morning he'd been day for nearly a day because there was discoloration to his skin saying this not to get a TMI but because it pinpoints his time of death as Sunday and Sunday morning, he went out bought groceries and gave extra to his neighbor who was having a rough time she told me when I was cleaning his place out. That was basically his last act helping out a neighbor in need and like you said I doubt we'll hear any stories like this for Ant, Jim, or Opie when they die, and they all have way more money than he ever had. Honestly the best Ant and Jim can hope for is when they die it's not embarrassing like David Carradine.

Edit: When I said Monday Morning, I meant a Monday morning this happened a few years ago I'm sorry if anyone thought this was recent. Relooking at the post I see where my wording might be confusing and again sorry if I did confuse anyone.

Jim Norton has been proudly banging trannies for ~30 years and is best known for his personal story of blowing another child under a flight of stairs. He's famous for being terribly cucked by most of the "women" he dates (and married).

His life is more embarrassing then his death possibly could be.

Your old man sounds like a fucking bad ass.

I really don't get how these OnA people can't just retire and move onto something else other than desperately holding onto a fragment of the clout they once had.

Also, if you ever wonder why places in the Carolinas don't even feel like part of the South and the accents are over the place, it's because carpet baggers like Ant are flooding in and ruining the entire culture.

It's like Dallas at this point where everyone is just an asshole from New Jersey.

None of them have friends. The Opester has family, technically, but the wife was likely a trophy who isn't "friends" with him in the sense they hang around having fun much and I doubt he's actually close with "The Philly Crew" (his in-laws) in any meaningful way. Norton's a weird little shit who gets in bitchy moods and broods at the drop of a hat, so who wants to be around that for any length of time. Ant fucks children.

Trying to pretend like it's still 2006 is pretty much all any of those pathetic queers has left.

Danny, Kenny, and David are the only ones I think who left radio/broadcasting/podcasting as a career. Everyone else has a podcast or works at Sirius.

How ya feelin after Sunday's disaster?

Well it's radio. Anything over the air is a disaster now. Not sure if you're a time traveler from 1941 or not but I hate to let you know...radio is dead. He's sober and sound coherent and doesn't have a bunch of retards in his studio anymore and is possibly happy doing something. I'm not a fagboy fan but this isn't a bad thing for the guy.

You get the optimistic for the sober line. The unfortunate thing is he kinda needs at least one other retard in there to help keep him on topic. Might be time for Ant'ny to start prepping like he did before he got his first million dollar contract.

I am also sad that radio is dead.
 
Anthony retweeted this recently in an effort to be nominated, which means it would be a good idea to write-in someone else. Opie would be a funny choice and Anthony would probably lose his mind like how he did over the Patrice documentary, but ultimately not funny enough

My nominees:
- Bobo (Daniel Kurlan of O&A, Opie with Jim, Jim and Sam)
- Scorch (Scorch, of PFG-TV, WECF 92.9 The X, WGIR Rock 101 Manchester - that appears to be his actual legal name although his old wrestling name, Vito Carlucci, might also be his name, his personal details are well kept)
- Intern David (David Fried of O&A, The David & Bobo Show)

(You need your name btw so keep that in mind)

I have a funny feeling that Hoagie Boy, Slobbo, and Jelly Tits just got nominated.

Edit- Turd and Meatballs probably got one too.

Honestly that fat Nagel kid deserves a radio HoF nomination over Jim Norton. How does E-Rock think Norton should be in for being a 3rd mic who only used the job to plug comedy club spots and to feed his obsession with celebrity pictures? Maybe if the worm ever admitted he's gay he could have been "the first openly gay radio host on a major show" and got in that way.
