It’s been pointed out to me that Anthony hasn’t even finalized the details of this deal, let alone signed it, and is already boasting about how awesome it’s going to be.


Does he have any memory whatsoever of how good the pests are at fucking his shit up?
 
Is Terry Clifford still around? Maybe she can be Nana's new co host. Their first broadcast could be called "The Anthony Cumia beatings." :story:
She happily retired in 2023 along with a nomination to the Country Radio Hall of Fame. WBEE even let her have a farewell show, which is a rarity in terrestrial radio.
 
yes but he says he's isn't.

Why would he? A short weekend slot is nothing, Opie could start calling radio stations around New York today and land a gig just like Ant's by the end of the week. He should be happy that he doesn't have to scrounge for dollars to supplement his income until he can start collecting social security checks.

He's sitting there talking about interviewing Trump. O&A interviewed Trump many times in their career in NY Radio and Satellite Radio. Trump called them a couple of slobs after their last interview where one of them pissed Trump off.
 
All you'd have to do is get the execs there to look at his F'N twitter feed.
According to Anthony his hiring is part of the post-election “Trump effect.” In fact I’m quite sure the WABC GM Chad Lopez does not realize that Anthony is so far gone that he (for just one example) openly celebrated the deaths of little kids in a bus accident because they were black. He’s so one-note that he can’t make racism, which can be very funny, even remotely entertaining.

Cumia sees this as his mandate to talk nothing but politics on that show. But he’s no good at that and it isn’t what his old fans want to hear either.

Saw this clip from Cumia and McInnes' crossover Wed show

- the clip begins with Anthony's new producer having Cumia out of frame
- Anthony says he never discussed any financial details, so rumors of numbers like 300k and 40k being talked about by Opie are both fabricated by trolls
- has apparently been given explicit permission that he can promote Censored.tv content on the terrestrial air. Sees promo of Gavin's channel as the biggest perk of the potential radio gig
- has discussed potential alogs and controversy directly with the station GM. GM responded "everyone involved is really excited to have him".
- owner of station also has access to 388+ syndicated stations. Cumia's deal is only for the local WABC affiliate. No guarantee that any of his content will be broadcast on outside networks.
- Cumia plans on doing both shows. Will abide by FCC regulations for terrestrial, will remain uncensored for Gavin
- Anthony had some passing notions about inquiring about a similar gig at local Greeneville stations after he moved to SC permanently but never did

Fez's slow slide in going crazy was amazing radio. He was harmless and I miss him.



Gay, Angry, and Mentally Unstable... Fezzie was a hot mess, but sure he was a whole lot funnier and entertaining than a woman shoving a wiffleball bat up her vagina.

Big Ass Cardholder: #15713, always and forever buddays (hoo-ha!)

Also, there is a Ron and Fez Archive Thread for those who would like to discuss the show and examine Fez as a character, of what was a work or a shoot. Like if you are a patient enough person to get through the slow burn of R&F, then you are with O&A, then that is a thread that some of the old fans and lurkers can appreciate.

Of course he didn't. He has fans from his satellite days, but old radio listeners are concentrated in only a few areas, and that's the audience he's being hired to appeal to. We also know that breaking into a new market and cultivating a new listenership would be impossible for him because he's been failing at just that for a decade.

This along with his talking cat created some fascinating radio. That fucking cat segment is still all time great radio. He really did become Gail O huh?
