ITS A RETIREMENT COMMUNITY!!!

I wish the Lord would take him

It's 'individually placed senior citizens'!!!

It's like a hotel at Captain Teeb's

Rest area.

I know alcoholic ex-shock jocks who are inspired!

..and inspiring.👩

A COMMUNITY FOR ACTIVE ADULTS AND THEIR LIFESTYLES.

"Alternative" lifestyles. i.e. Tranny weiner

[deleted]

No one here watches sopranos

They have a lot active women his age.

"I say goodnight to the river every night, and good morning to the river every morning."

Not true. Ant is going to the Navy on the same vessel as Ladi Di. U.S.S. Wetbrain. After 30 days he has to bodyslam her like Lex Luger and he gets to leave.

I am bracing myself for the cringes that will occur when Jim starts pontificating about the virtues of sobriety, and using phrases like "we've all been there, dude." Jim makes sobriety so unpalatable.

It's already happening.

He was afraid that he could only laugh if he was on mescaline. So dark, so dark.

What a tortured soul. Will Pagliacci ever laugh again?

Holy fuck, they're both Italian clowns, how did this never occur to us before.

Pagliacci? Jimmy is Pugsley.

I just wish Ron would snap on him. "Yeah Jim some of us drank a little too much when we were teens others snorted coke then and had a solid 25 year long coke addiction but you know it's all the same in the end."

that's when I check out.. maybe permanently.

Jim's very happy when he heard Ant is going to rehab. Very happy.

Hahah everytime I hear him say "as an addict" I wanna push him down a flight of stairs .

[deleted]

Sober Jimmy is why I drink.

Jimmy makes lots of things unpalatable. Like pedophilia.

That's when we call the show and remind him of Chip Chipperson Show.

HAHAHA!!! If it's not court-ordered, it's being done for optics only. which means he is looking at possible JAIL TIME. This is to butter up the judge who is unhappy. BLAhahahAHA! I thought it was part of the deal. He's fucked!

He's super fucked. Well at least he won't die from booze & xanax withdrawals in jail. Unless he gets addicted again as soon as he's out.

Even in jail, they can't make you do that in a cell. You'll die. They'd put him in the jail hospital for that. He'll have to be in an inpatient unit at the rehab facility for that, for at least a few days. It's super dangerous detoxing from alcohol or xanax. They're a couple of the only drugs that can kill you from cold turkey-ing. Even heroin doesn't do the seizure thing in detox, but alcohol and xanax both do. He'll be in the plastic sheet ward for 3-4 days coming down off that. And the Xanax withdrawal will take at least a week of weaning. It's no joke. Sucks wherever you are.

One Flew Over the Cumia Nest.

hahah the CUMIAS nest haha

That's a good nickname for his "hair"

Do they do lobotomies in rehab? That'll fix him right up.

Ant is incapable of admitting he's wrong. He isn't ready to quit drinking or even curb his self destructive habits. This isn't his bottom. He's only doing this because it's court ordered.

Doubt he'd be admitting it's his fault while still going to court.

Of he was the genius level of the people posting about his life on a daily basis......he'd been in jail weeks ago.

I think this sub is full of either jealous ex radio, ex comic, or ex callers who got shit on by the show. Who else gives a Fuck about these guys' private lives?!? Who cares why he's going to rehab!? I've seen tons of people saying Ant needs rehab, and now people are criticizing the motivation behind it! Who cares?

Takin some time off fa la la la la Enrollin in the Navy fa la la la la

Fuck. I parallel thought you. No Harm No Foul.

What is fa la la la la a reference to?

sleeves christmas song. Linger longer ahboo

You enlist in the navy you fucking idiot. It's not college.

Whoah someone's got this guys goat! Don't misspeak around this gentleman!

water on the desk.

its rehab

Water on the head.

It's Tranthony!!!

He hasn't had a beer on the desk since the arrest. Either a bottle of water or the cups with the show logo. He hasn't even mentioned drinking.

rehab confirmed.

Never watched TACS before, but it seems pretty awesome for him to have such a great view of NYC from his studio...

It's so clear and in-focus.

And I never knew NYC weather was like LA.

No way this rehab sticks. He'll be back to his old drunken self by end of May.

I don't give him credit for that long. He's treating it like a bit.

He is unable to understand what he really did wrong.

And this... is why he will fail. <<Yoda>>

Why he will fail, this is.

He didn't do anything wrong, it's Dani, she deserved all of it

I bet he won't make it a week in rehab. It's genuinely hard, it's genuinely emotional work, you can't laugh shit off. He'll get shit from the counselors and the other addicts for the constant nervous laughter. He won't make it.

sounds gay. looks like it's a life of substance abuse for me!

Just be sure to end it with a gunshot, will ya?

you can easily laugh it off but he's not gonna make it past day 3 of some black counselor waking up at 6 am and telling him to make his bed before the morning meeting and basically be stuck in a chair all day listening to the same repeated shit about the 12 steps.

Ant's breakdown will finally come five days into rehab where he starts screaming "WHAT HAVE I DONE, I WASTED MY CAREER! OH GOD, I LET BOBO INTO MY HOUSE! OH GOD, ARE THESE HAIRPLUGS?!?"

Rehab is easy as fuck it's not hard

Says a guy who never did it and never will. Rehab is one of the hardest things a human being can do. You're a dumbfuck and you can't even imagine the sand you have to have to successfully combat that shit.

Yeah I went once for 30 days once for 90 court ordered for heroin.......faggot

I bet you were fucking great for the other patients, tough guy. They must've loved you.

Yeah your a fucking retard.

You're* ... You're a fucking retard.

I'm by far no grammar nazi. But get it right when calling somebody retarded.

No 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃

Because if anybody knows the mind of a public figure, it's the psychoanalyst known as Goutastic!

[deleted]

I think it's just a good time/opportunity for him to re-center.

Jimmy's addicted to being an "addict". Fucking douchey.

And it's ironic because he's still clearly an addict to sex. It runs his life. It ruins his life. He's just as unhappy as a sex addict as he was as a substance addict.

So he's only had sex once and never again?

But he's not killing himself, wasting every dime, etc... If you think a sex addict is in the same boat as drug addict.....You're a delusional imbecile. Nobody steals their mom's Blu-ray player to go get a blowjob.

He spends 10s of thousands a year on hookers for joyless sex. He's an addict. And a hypocrite.

He acts like 12 step programs work, meanwhile he's still engaged in the same addict behavior. He just swapped substances for hookers.

He's not in recovery, he just traded addictions.

do u think he knows the fans know? or he just dont care since he already invested too much in the addict personality

Whenever someone calls him on it I bet he goes to a meeting to re-affirm it.

"I date stark raving lunatics"

Yes, Anthony, we're all still buying that it's THEM that are crazy. Every one, you poor victimized baby boy.

This guy is so full of shit and deserves every bit of misfortunate that's come and that's coming his way.

Sure, HE'S the sane one. How many of those "lunatics" ask themselves "why do I only date crazy assholes?"

well you know what i always say, "it takes two to tango" ha ha

This is the same mentality Opie has about disgruntled ex-employees who only hate him and liked everyone else. It's them that's wrong, not the most common denominator.

"Crazy pussy" drove him to drink is essentially his springboard for all this.

Well, he's right that he does tend to date lunatics, but only because he is himself a lunatic.

To be fair, they could also all definitely be crazy lunatics. It's like how chicks date asshole after asshole that abuses them. They're damaged goods and that relationship is filling some missing part of their life.

He's an emotional disaster and attracts (and is attracted to) crazy bitches. Not too hard to believe.

Is the logo going to change from a Guinness rip-off to a Snapple rip-off?

Diet Coke.

Peach Nehi

O'Doul's.

O'Ghoul's

Considering Ant's true racial heritage, I would assume some brand of grape drank.

That nigga is gonna change the backdrop from NYC to Poland Spring

Not court ordered....by definitely Attorney advised.

Haha 55 year old man throwing down a 25 year old chick and kicking her ribs. Then strangling her. Goes to rehab and is all better, I hope the judge puts him in jail for a year at least.

Anthony: I was watching some old Dick Cavett shows the other day...

Opie: I was talking to Dick Cavett the other day...

Just to clarify, both have hit rock bottom.

Anthony's going to be without twitter for a month, which is probably worse than no alcohol for him.

"I'M IN CHAINS!!!!!! I'M CHAINS!!!! MY FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS IN CHAINS!!!"

Ant walks out of rehab, and the first thing he does is grab Brother Joe's discount Best Buy chromebook, goes to Twitter, and copy/pastes racial slurs until the keyboard breaks.

He now truly knows what his ancestors went through.

Yet that will have the best impact on him

shushhhhhhh!!!! There will be nobody to block us. Wait to he gets back and opens up twitter and sees what we have been up to. He will be off the wagon in 10 minutes

Only in this sub could the top posts be berating Ant for not taking sobriety seriously while berating Jimmy and Ron for taking sobriety too seriously.

Is there really an abundance of people saying Ronnie B is being too harsh about it?

If you think Jimmy was even an addict, you're living in a world not unlike the one Ant is inhabiting now.

[deleted]

Rehab. I bet he gets shitfaced on the plane coming back home.

He will be one of the "dangerous, hospitalization possible" drunks when he gets there. It's pretty common. We've had alcoholics come in with blood alcohol over 3.0--getting sauced in the airport bars. They're brought to the hospital first then detox with us. It's great.

I hope he doesn't come back talking about his "triggers." That pisses me off when they come home with new excuses. He's still not accepting responsibility for what he's done.

I believe it's spelled with an n.

Lol

Lol indeed my trigga

The long and short of it is, until he takes responsibility, he will never, ever beat his addictions. He doesn't have a hope in hell. That's what getting clean and healthy is about. And it's hard and it's a LOT of work and it's scary. There are real triggers for people--at least people with PTSD, and knowing them can keep you out of danger. You just avoid the trigger. But you know yourself enough to take yourself out of a situation or just know that in that particular situation, you could be in danger. It's just a tool. If anyone uses a tool as a crutch, automatically they're fucked. They're just avoiding responsiblity then.

Hi Jimmy!

[deleted]

Y'all sound like a bunch of queers!

Do you mean .3? Because 3.0 would mean that their blood is 300% alcohol.

Indeed I did. Misplaced the decimal.

BAC is measured in ten thousandths, not hundredths, so 0.01% alcohol in the blood is a BAC of 0.1, or did you think at 0.1 your 2 gallons of blood had the alcoholic content of white wine?

And much like Dr. Dre's Detox, Anthony will never come out.

Hi Jimmy!

I heard you!

3.0? You mean .30, Mr. Recovery Professional.

Ant's fake laugh is so grating

YEAHH HAHA HAHAAAAHH!!!! Grating!!!

That's terrific!

It's sooo groteyyyy

Holy shit is he ever in denial.

I wish he would just be real for a second. He can't get that fucking retarded smile off his face for two seconds about going to rehab. NO ONE is happy about going to rehab.

I can't stand an asshole who smirks. Fucking annoying facial expression.

So Anthony should have made a sad, Intervention style show today? Would you like it more if he cried? He's doing a show! With Ron B and James Norton. I'd be smiling too!

There's no happy medium for you is there? Either he cries the whole show or he's overly happy about everything, huh?

I'd be happy to enjoy both of their company as well, but there's no way he doesn't have this gloomy cloud of rehab hanging above his head influencing his thoughts at every moment.

It's just very unnatural and eerie to see him blow over everything with laughs and not let a single moment of real feeling about the whole situation come out. It's a very hard outer shell that he won't let crack.

those 2 keep laughing at their 50 years old reference, so fucking awful

Your username is fantastic, I love it

live picture of Jimmy's smug self-satisfaction.

Sorry, the nose is too big to be Jimmy.

Being out of control is fun...until you get nailed with felony charges.

The party's over, Anthony. He's so afraid of that reality. He doesn't know how to live without booze. He has to relearn how to live, and that's what most recovering addicts fail at and end up using again.

I was on the fence if he needed rehab, have been for a long time. But this show is proving he does need it - and I'm pretty sure he doesn't agree.

But this show is proving he does need it - and I'm pretty sure he doesn't agree.

I'm the opposite. He obviously realizes his life is a mess and is doing rehab as a "everyone says its the drinking... maybe it is?". As I'm watching this I don't even think he's an alcoholic... he needs therapy. Dating crazy chicks, being totally emotionally disconnected and living like a 22 year old isn't from the alcohol. They're all the result of unresolved issues... still looks at himself as the pissy eyed faggot that never had his fathers approval.

I felt the same for a long time. Maybe you're right. But he's made a few comments, the few times they actually talked about the addiction, that tipped me onto the "He needs it" side.

He definitely needs therapy, tho. He's a stuffer. He stuffs all of his emotions down, and only lets them out in racist/political rants. The drinking is part of that - Stanhope is the same, but Stanhope is open about it. Stanhope is that mythical unicorn, the honest drunk.

Yup. It's why I think this will unfortunately fail for him.... he doesn't need to hear that he's powerless over his addiction and needs to submit to a higher power. He won't believe it (and it could very well be not true). He needs to work out why he attracted to danger, what part of him is broken and work on it.

Everyone here seems to be rejoicing at his fall. I just want the motherfucker to fix his shit and bring the funny back.

stuffer

Toppest of keks.

What's the over/under he's going to a rehab place that is notorious for relapses or simply providing cover/a reasonable alibi?

Ant isn't going to take rehab seriously at all. He's just going to learn how to hide his drinking better once he's let out.

If anything, he'll find fellow self-destructive people and get hints from them. Including getting drunk from mouthwash.

I'm sure he'll drink the usual stuff. Probably gin or vodka since it resembles water so it can be mixed easily. Or rum & coke. But believe me, he's gonna treat this whole ordeal like a 9th grader in detention.

I'd be serious $$ he'll be the connection other addicts go to to get shit in the facility. There's always one. He fits the profile.

Seriously. When I went to a rehab facility, there was a guy who was there to fulfill some legal obligations and he was an entrepreneurial motherfucker, giving out his number for people to buy opiates from him on the outside.

Yep. We've seen countless dudes like that. It's astonishing the rackets they figure out. No cell phones, limited access to land lines, out in the middle of nowhere--there is always some fucker who figures out how to get shit in. It's a big business. It fucks people up real bad too. When you're trying so fucking hard to stay away from that shit, someone like that is practically poisoning you and everyone else. I fucking hate them. They almost always get caught but they're pretty common and they do a lot of damage.

Holy shit, can Jim look around for affirmation that someone else is laughing any more? Good 'Ol swivel head.

Feeling pretty good in the la la la la, After court ordered rehab fa la la la la la.

Tried to make me go to rehab I said No No No la la la la la

Gonna lose all my money in civil court so I might was well OD on pills and booze fa la la la lal

Jim's been waiting 16 years to make the "If you want to be a pussy and go to rehab..." joke. Hilarious.

Jim's been waiting 16 years to make the "If you want to be a pussy and go to rehab..." joke. Hilarious.

To be honest it fucking killed

This place has warped us all. I meant that sincerely. It was a great line.

sobriety pontification annoys me.

Ron looks so uncomfortable.

Ron always looks that way on radio

At least Jim is very happy for Ant. That's all that matters.

It's not court ordered, because he offered/ is offering it to the DA to reduce the charges he's facing.

He says he's going in, but not WHY. He has not admitted he has a problem. People don't go to rehab if they don't think they need it. He's going to waste the rehab's time. But they'll take his money, because that will help to save someone else who's taking it seriously.

This fucker is facing jail time. It is the ONLY reason someone as selfish, stupid, un-self aware as he is would do something this hard. He will leave in a week or less. He'll chance jail to drink. He is not in the right head space at all to get clean or even try to stop. He's going to waste a lot of people's time.

Today is my birthday. All I want for my birthday is court mandated rehab, or some Bud Dwyer situation.

Happy birthday to me

What a life.

Happy Birthday buddy!

😊

[deleted]

We were gonna pitch in & get you a personalized Tranthony cake from Dairy Queen but they ran out of pink frosting while doing his acne.

Wow Ant talking about tv shows from 50 years ago yay.

dick van dyke show reference and all is complete

Nice job framing Ronnie and the empty chair.

He looks dead inside.

And outside

He saying it's not court ordered?????

Last ditch effort to avoid serious time. Attorney advised. Probably took the attorney this long to get him in there. Celebrities usually go right to rehab immediately to show the judge they're serious. He's fucked and he's scared to death or he wouldn't be doing this. Jail is what's on the line here.

Plea agreement is different from court ordered

He didnt say it was a plea agreement either, did he?

Yesterday he did, unless he implied it with the subtly of a brick for no reason

He is so fucked

Yup. LOL

Rehab will only be successful for him if it ends in a tearful phone call to the opster, apologizing for all of the shit he has caused over the years.

I'd listen.

Opie won't.

I remember when it was acceptable to watch the show and have a listening thread. This is very nostalgic. I can't believe how quickly everything has changed. Whatta mess!

Seinfeld finale like rationalization of going to prison. "It's going to be an adventure!"

Is Brother Joe going to fill Ant's shoes when he's gone? Please be yes.

[deleted]

Anthony WHINE-house

Ant isn't taking this shit seriously. It's all a big fucking joke. I'd actually be glad to see some real emotion from him. He needs fucking help.

You were expecting him to?

Good point.

He's doing this for publicity reasons, hell do the radio talk show circiut and get back in the good graces of Red Eye. He'll preach sobriety yet go home and drink with friends. Hell hire big A to take his phone so he doesnt drunk tweet and not allow guests to take video. Hes already setting himself up to not change during rehab. His lawyers said this will help whats left of his career and he knows that.

He's doing it so he doesn't get actual jail time. His career is OVER. He will never be in the good graces of even Red Eye again as he may do jail time. This is not for publicity. It's to save his maggoty skin from doing prison time. He's fucked.

You called it.

He could have done this better without trying so hard to be funny. Ron looks disgusted. He knows the deal.

He knows he's going to see Ant in about a month as either a shell of himself or a man who might have conned his way into a probation that will surely lead to jail further down the line.

Goddamn he is just as fake as ever. Edit: he can't even say the word rehab. What a fucking tool.

He literally said he thinks of this as an adventure.

He will be rudely disabused of that notion within 5 minutes of arriving.

He's going to a "facility".

He can't even say the word "rehab"

He has no interest in getting sober, still looking for excuses.

We're forgetting something here - what happens to Fred from Brooklyn and the other hanger-ons? Do they find another host in the absence of the current one or do they shrivel up and die without any sustenance? I don't watch enough Discovery Channel to know.

They have to find a new sucker to mooch free booze off of. Fuck 'em.

Sobriety talk from "sober" people is always so riveting and full of laughs.

TACS has never been much about funny, so why start now?

Sanctimonious sober people are the worst. Just shut up and drink your fucking water.

And asks about women IN REHAB: yep, he's going to great. Full codependency on display. What a fucking moron.

Most, if not all rehabs have strict rules about hooking up in rehabs, you're there to work on YOU, not date. It happens, obviously, but it's bad for the work being done, as I think Ron said.

Most rehabs also recommend that singles stay single for a while after getting out. Get your shit together first.

It's poison to the work that needs to be done and it's so common. You're supposed to be single for an entire year after coming out of rehab. This moron. No way he's going to do it. Massive fail.

<sarcasm>I'm sure he'll find a really well-rounded and mature 17-year-old to help him keep it together.</sarcasm>

I'm sure he'll look for her. And nothing will get his ass kicked out faster than predatory behavior. If he sits next to a young girl, the psychs will watch him like a hawk. Touching is usually not allowed at all, even hugs at some places. At least between the genders.

Christ, Norton is skeletal.

Going to the gym, going to the gym and getting HIV.

Really not cool to poke fun at someone going through chemo.

It looks like someone removed the tumor and it's wearing Ant's clothes.

Bright side is that he doesn't have to shave his head. The chemo does it for him.

Oh holy shit, many of you are painfully stupid: it's not "court appointed", it's a move by his lawyer to soften the blow and agreed by the prosecution. Without even looking it up in Suffolk it has a continuance. Class D Felony that carries a minimum of 5 isn't exactly a first DUI.

Use more commas.

[deleted]

Ah, so that's what the death of a career looks like.

Good point. None of these people are any more than clowns and I hope they stay around longer. Like a vending machine that doesn't work. Find another. Ant, Jim, Opie, etc. These guys had something really funny though Ant-curus flew too close to the sun.

he's really taking it seriously, right guys?

Nope. He does not sound like he's hit rock bottom, has admitted he has a problem, and wants to do something about it. There's no sound of relief in his voice that the craziness is over.

He sounds like someone who made a plea bargain with the DA and rehab is part of it, because he wants to keep his guns. And I say that as someone who hasn't been slamming Ant mercilessly for months here.

I find it odd that so far, he has not addressed WHY he's going into a rehab. He's more concerned with what to expect.

yup, he's thinking about the end already, keeps calling it adventure.. I hope they're pros and can put some sense into him, otherwise it's pointless.

I don't think it will matter with all the enablers around him. He needs to dump all the leeches aside from maybe Keith.

Ron is better than god and he exists.

I don't believe in Ron, a fucking fairy tale.

Plus, God has never made me laugh...except for the platypus

Does that make Fez Job?

is there a rumor going round that I don't take responsibilty?

lol ant, you'd think someone who spent 20 years with the most delusional big-titted buffoon would be able to recognise his own flaws, jesus christ.

He can't be this naive about what rehab will be like. It's pretty much common knowledge if you watch movies or tv.

Pretty sure he's playing it up for the show for Ron and Jim to make jokes.

His addiction is driving right now. He's being confronted with shit he's scared to death of. He's terrified of that chair in the group therapy room where they're going to expect him to open up to his feelings.

This is a textbook example of "grasping at straws".

He is going to be an absolute zero in group therapy. Deflect, laugh, whatever. He's going to be hated in that room.

Terrified this is coming out of his pocket and not through insurance provided by his former company. Will cost him dearly.

You really think he doesn't have his own insurance? He can afford it - and they'll pay for this, up to a point. Any may have to sell off a few guns, or dive into those safe deposit boxes with gambling winnings to pay for the rest.

Didn't make that clear but yeah he has to have his own insurance but wondering how much will he have to pay out of his own pocket to afford to go to somewhere for a month.

Less payouts to his friends to spend time with him I guess.

Yeah, that sounds fucking awful. It's amazing anyone has ever gotten clean when they expect you to sit in a faggoty circle and talk about your goddamn feelings. I'd rather suck cock.

I have never watched TACS, when did Ant become the creature?

July 2014.

The times square savage carries a rare disease.

Jim "Me me me me me"

We knew that shit was coming.

I dont think its the drinking. Its the anger management problems all the brown people have.

This wasn't a personal choice says Keith...because it was either that or jail or lose your guns or whatevs ...this has probably been said already but too many comments to read.

I hope Jimmy and Ron aren't too excited. I don't think court-mandated rehab ever really sticks.

They probably know better.

You can see it in Ron's face

Ron's going to go home and see Gail there. "So Dad, how's Ant doing." Ron pauses. He could force a smile, but Gail will see right through him. Without a word or a look in her direction, he walks to his study, sits in a chair, and mentally prepares for lowering Ant's coffin into the ground.

It doesn't. Arguably, it fucks up the other addicts because they decided to go on their own and really do it and the court-ordered just fuck around, don't take anything seriously and half the time, they try to get junk in the facility. It's a nightmare and it's counterproductive for people really trying to get clean.

It's crazy how Ron and Jimmy are talking about experiences they had in rehab when their brains were literally still developing. Ant is fucking 60 years old going through this same shit.

im pretty sure Ron was in his 30's

what i get from this broadcast is that ron is a sage and a good friend ,that anthony does not deserve

Or he's a pontificating windbag, know-it-all.

I'm at 5 minutes wondering if this can get any douchier.

Oh it can. And it will.

I'm sticking with it but Jesus Christ this fuck

I had to check out man. It feels like enabling.

[deleted]

He laughed about it and made jokes the whole time. You didn't miss a thing. I checked out early.

I don't think this is rock bottom for Ant. His analogy of being on a rollercoaster is bang on. But it started when he became somebody. I don't think this will change him. He's hit rock bottom but next stop is the loop. My dad had drink issues all his life til his death. I'm sure Ant had remorse for himself in the cell thinking about this. My dad did. Did it change him. No he had bouts of remorse. Then easily slipped back into his old lifestyle. Ant loves his lifestyle choice so i cannot see him changing.

It's what makes him who he is. A funny F ... but with personality flaws. Like jimmy but jimmy knows it and it doesn't effect anyone. Bar the odd prozzie that might be mentally scarred F'ing him.

Craig Ferguson described alcoholism perfectly here, also the notion of rehab as a permanent cure. He starts going into his own story at 4:00

https://youtu.be/7ZVWIELHQQY

I hope Ant makes it to the 9th step because this sub is due a blackout-sober-apology at 4am!

THROUGH YOUR TEARS

Someone who is on hold should tell him he should have had Stanhope on for an opposite opinion instead of a hurray for sobriety circlejerk. I keep getting a busy tone. Then call him a pissy eyed faggot and a quitter while cracking a beer into the phone.

Please do. Also say the Chipperson cartoon looks terrible.

RAAAAAAAAAMOOOOOOOOOOOONEEEEE!!! KILL THIS CRATER-FACED TRANNY FUCKER!!

This is the climax gentlemen.. this is what we've all been waiting for

I... I already came though

"Jim and Ron will be at the Mohigan Sun with me this December"

You have no impact on my life, I laugh at all of you!

[deleted]

They should've cued up the "sad Hulk" ending music like they did in the old WNEW days.

Nah, that's going to be playing on-loop when they find Ant's body. He ain't going to prison. He's taking the loser way out.

Tranpa is already playing the victim after skating on felony assault charges.

Jim Norton: Death is intangible! hand swoop, head tilt and look to ceiling

aids

I really think part of Ant's collapse into batshit insanity was all of the fake enthusiasm for his public broadcasting venture & the constant AH HA HA HA HA!!! HOOLLYYYY SHIIIT!!'s directed at obviously mediocre &/or embarrassing guests. No one could maintain that facade forever.

Either way, this is hilarious. Enjoy rehab, you ethnically impure fuck up.

If Ant's admission into Rehab wasn't court ordered, than who convinced him to go?

He clearly doesn't want to do it. He doesn't want to go through all that "higher power" emo-bullshit, and talk about that touchy pussy shit.

Meanwhile a C-section baby who gets pegged by prostitutes, and a black garbage bag are lecturing him about hitting rock bottom, and how good it will be for him..

Telling a judge that you are voluntarily going into rehab can show the court you want to get better. His lawyer probably advised it, since he may have been facing jail time (probably a month or two) if he did not show some kind of responsibility.

His attorney. This is a last-ditch goodwill gesture to avoid actual jail time. Seen it a thousand times before. It's as good as court-ordered except he's not out of the woods yet. He could be sentenced to prison.

NO! NO! NO!!!!!

Gavin and Gomez said he was exonerated of all charges and was free and clear!

I know. So hard to believe they'd talk out their asses, right? They also believe he didn't hit her though she has a hospital report showing broken ribs on it. They're really bright guys! guys's guys, if you will. They'd never stay on a woman beater's network!!!

Higher Power is Emo bullshit?

Yes, however higher voltage is real baby.

Brother Joe walking around in a shitty wig and a pair of anthonys dirty underwear pretending to be anthony while hes in rehab.

Chances the black hooker from Times Square makes an appearance today?

Starting the show off by talking about 80 year old TV shows. This is off to a wonderful start.

I just looked for a comment from someone that was watching it and picked yours at random. What is he saying? Is it really rehab? In what way did he "announce it". God damn is he an idiot if he really went about this by hyping it up as a big announcement. Yeah youre really "owning it". Now youre just gonna lose your stupid podcast, too.

It's rehab. He announced it in a roundabout way; but it's rehab.

And...

IT'S REHAB

as much as he's sucked lately and this is court ordered, (edit: apparently it's not) I wish him well. He's given me a lot of good laughs over the years and I hope he gets back on track.

Opie wins again

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

Hahahaha Ronnie and Jimmy are hilarious.

His special announcement was really rehab? God DAMN it I have a stupid paper to write but I'm gonna end up sitting here like the michael jackson popcorn gif for the next 3 hours.

Ronnie's face when Jim said, "You're not going to shoot anybody" was fucking brilliant

Anyone remember laughter?

Yeah its that thing I used to do before July 2014

Jimmy is so full of shit, I could stomp him.

[deleted]

Hot off the presses:

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2016/03/30/former-opie-and-anthony-co-host-anthony-cumia-drops-surprise-announcement-im-going-to-rehab/

This is like something O&A would laugh at back in 2010.

upscale Long Island home.

Nice way of saying Dago trash McMansion in Roslyn Heights

Everywhere you look is an extraneous pillar.

And cream colored carpet

Does that make Ant the Fresh Prince of Who Cares?

Please help me understand: why do Italian Americans that do the whole pillars, cream carpets, and other garage think this is nice or class?

That was fast.

Why didn't the iBang have this first?!

"I don't want you opening up Jim Norton's asshole and having cum spill out all over the dock"

fuck that was good

April will have the most viewers he's ever had with guest hosts like Jimmy, Colin, Soder, Ari, Bennington etc.

Just turned it on & he is talking about Joan Crawford on Mike Douglas. He's so fucking old

Confirmed. Away for a month. It's rehab. He's gone for the month of April.

edit: Random people filling in, apparently. Like when Letterman had his heart attack.

I wish he'd have a second heart attack. Anthony, not Letterman.

Oh, man, Ant is not happy about this situation at all. Hah!

Oh good, Jimmy is here. The voice of experience and wisdom with addictions and rehabilitation.

You don't think those 4 beers scarring him for life make him a credible authority on the subject?

"SO IS IT ALL ANTHONY'S FAULT?"

A 55-year-old alcoholic, folks. He's going to do so well in rehab. Jesus Christ. Can't even take responsiblity when he is going to rehab by court order. He's fucked.

Imagine the first time Ant has to deal with someone telling their life story and it's really awful and sad, and he starts laughing, and everybody stares him down.

That's exactly what I'm thinking and they will kick him the fuck out for that. Nothing shuts people down more and that's the only way an addict is going to start fixing the damage. He will be a liability in group. It's going to be a nightmare to the other patients and the counselors. Plus, any money he'll have liquor in his room. Somebody always gets junk and he really fits the profile. He's not even a little serious. Sucks for the other people there.

Most addicts sound like this before they clean up. Cut him some slack, just making the decision (or having it made for you) doesn't magically make the addict think and act rationally.

Court-ordered is useless. i work with addicts, I know addicts. Court-ordered never works. This guy is going to fail so badly. He doesn't even think it's really his problem. He's still trying to find any excuse to blame something other than himself. He's still talking about "crazy cunts." He's the craziest cunt he's ever met and he will NEVER say it. He's going to waste a lot of people's time next month, if he makes it over a week there.

Sadly, this is the truth. I've been watching Ronnie, he's the only honest one in the room. He's engaged, but I don't think he believes this is going to do shit, but he's giving Ant the benefit of the doubt, for now. I think Ronnie knows that he's in for the long haul, and this may have to be done a couple of times before rehab clicks for Ant - and it's Ron's character that he won't walk away and will be there until it does.

I watched him for awhile. He's a smart guy, very used to this shit. But yeah, he's not a hopeful man in this segment. It's like he's going through the motions. I think he knows not to invest any emotion or hope because this shit will fail. He's protecting his own sanity here. An addict knows when another addict is full of it. They have to be supportive (what else can you do?), but they know who has a chance and who doesn't. They probably did it 17 times before they themselves really made the commitment to get clean. That's how it works. Sucks for him. I feel bad for him because he's doing that in good faith and it sucks to have friends fail at this--it's hard on your own sobriety sometimes. And Anthony is giving him nothing. He'd never do the same for Ronnie. He's all about himself, like a toddler.

Hi Jimmy!

Oh shut up Jimmy.

Please god let the piss lord Denny do at least one show!!!

Why does Anthy Winehouse take callers when he has good guests for once?

Well he seems contrite and sorry for everything....

"I've been sober since you met me, and for my entire life except for one weekend."

i'll be honest, this is some great radio.

Ron looks like he wants to bludgeon every motherfucker in the room.

He's saving up the bile so when something goes wrong on the show he can just tear that person apart. He's looking for Shelby 2.0 and just finding dozens of them.

"It's not court ordered, no...that would...that wouldn't be good haha."

"fucking chocolate ice cream" - this is a really funny episode

Jimmy is such a faggot. At least Opie acknowledges he sucks. Norton thinks he's actually good.

If you thought degenerate Anthony was circling the drain, just wait until you get a load of sober Anthony using twelve steps lingo.

With any luck he's going to a rehab that doesn't use the AA model. My dad went to one, one of the better ones in the country, that recommends AA for aftercare, in times of crisis, but they don't use the AA model in their own program.

Not that it matters. This rehab isn't serious. He's going to come out the exact same as when he came in, sadly.

He won't make it a month.

Only more smug so when he's caught by the cops for beating up a black hooker screaming 'give me back my career, you welfare leech,' it becomes even funnier.

"It's a disease" bullshit.

It's a kind of short-hand/slang for the condition, is all. The concepts you deal with are hard to wrap your noggin around, if you don't have any experience with it, and calling it a 'disease" is a way for people to grasp it. They're not saying it's like lupus or anything. It's behavioral with some genetic components.

I don't like the "disease" label, tho, because of reactions like yours. It undermines the work being done to help them.

I could refrain from being snarky if they called it a mental illness, or condition. But a disease is too much.

Exactly, which is why I don't like it, either - but I understand why they use the term.

Yes. But some people will latch on to that, making it their excuse. And when they start back with that behavior, some people will use that to excuse what they do instead of addressing the real problems in their lives. I'm a little hot headed about it because I've heard that from someone I was close to. Accept responsibility is what I mean to say.

I totally get what you're saying.

No Seinfeld "stretched out my sweater neck-hole" joke for the making amends step. Ant is truly dead.

Good Lord, Jim... What the actual Fuck is going with you?? He looks like the cancer guy from the movie "Flight".

Edit: https://youtu.be/crvH243QDUk

Only less funny

Looks like Nosferatu and Morrissey had a frankenkid.

In for the undoubtedly disappointing court mandated treatment episode!

I hope Ant has a "friend" in rehab like Fez's Donut.

Can only get good guests by going to rehab FA LA LA LA LA

Would be fucking so funny if Jimmy never turned up.

Ron has already gotten two big laughs out of me in ten minutes. I love that man.

Who gets the contents of his bar in the basement?!

[deleted]

Will I be brainwashed?

Anthony is a fucking moron, what the fuck.

So if he never chuck norrised that bitch in the ribs, this show wouldn't be happening right now?

[deleted]

He'll be obliterated at sign-in to rehab. It's not even uncommon.

Bennington's rehab story: http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1995-07-01/news/9507010300_1_bennington-correct-dosage-pretrial-intervention

Was that Gail? Too bad it wasn't bleach she swallowed.

Fuck you

Eat shit and die

Rich rehab sounds like going to a spa for a month.

Probably the the Hampton's

An airplane is involved.

Hopefully he's forced to parachute onto an abandoned island of native savages and have to fend for himself for a month.

Injuring a bunch of dark skinned people would probably the most effective course of rehab for Anthony. He should just call blackwater or XE or whatever they call themselves now and see if he can fire a heavy machine gun out of a Hind over the Congo or C.A.R.

FFS, can't they get a shot with the 3 of them?

[deleted]

Oh boy... Anthony doing Chip... sighs

"A group of people doing something that are more powerful than yourself'....so this whole time Opie's radio career was basically like a rehab for him?

Katt pulling an Ant.

There's music playing on the live page before the show starts.

I can't flip through the classic rock channgels but is Ant actually streaming a SiriusXM station?

$10 on No ant, just Jim and Bennington.

Close but no cigar, Ant and Ron, but no Yimmy.

I'd take the bet on a just Ant and no Jimmy or Ron.

Hope so will be funnier.

now were talking uncensored

Is Opie watching?

He's shot a few loads already. Be reasonable.

He's tweeting Meztger dates, seriously.

Ronnie's in a good mood today at least.

Jim accidentally fell into a bottle of tequila and no one noticed.

Ron looks like the dead fat gut from Seven.

Mandatory 30 day rehab. Good times.....

Hahaha rehab.

Saturday he's on his way to rehab

Where? Why is he getting on a plane? Is it in some exotic aisle?

There's a plane, but no mention if it's the juice aisle or the baking goods.

Confirmed. Rehab.

Do a show from the clinic. That would be hilarious.

"Rehabilitating, perhaps"

Early aPrIl fAhAlS joke??

Jimmy just slithered on in.

Should we start a dead pool for which of these 3 dies before the end of the show?

Jim looks very Gollum-y today.

Haha fucking Jimmy.

I just realized why seeing Jimmy reminds me of 8th grade science class:
Imgur

You have to want to get sober not just go for a pre-determined amount of time to make the judge happy. His drunk ass will be back on Twitter speeing hate by May 3rd.

what is it, with all this attention needy whores, all being in rehab and 12 steppers. Can't they just have a drink/beer without ending up in group

Opie is the only "normal" person and can do exactly what you described, also he is unfunny as fuck

im going against the grain here,but to me it is obvious that anthony knows it is serious and real. the only reason he is joking about it and avoiding saying things like"rehab" is because its real. if it was complete joke to him we wouldnt be so uncomfortable. and we all know anthony gets extremely uncomfortable when things start to get real with real consequences.

after this is done and when he is back he is gonna talk about his pill addiction, shove everything on the pill addiction, and become some kind of advocate. no joke.

Desk light went out again. Looks professional.

Ron' a reaction to Edgar was priceless

I'm glad Anthony is reevaluating things and I hope he comes back better than ever.

Rehab councillor: "Anthony, making excuses and impressions from the 60s is not the correct way of dealing with your emotions."

If felony assault and tranny fucking isn't rock bottom, I don't know what is.

That's where we part ways sir.

I will tell you now: he is getting jail time after rehab. Originally thought house arrest or wrist slap, but this move is used to reduce time. 2 felonies and 2 misdemeanors. The sick irony is I want to hear about it after.

Oh boy here's we go.

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit

oh snap, no jim? SPECULAAAAAAAAAAATE!

no jim...

Shocker... The stream is frozen.

rehab

Gonna be gone a month fa la la la la, will come back to the burning sunders of my network fa la la la la

Ant actually said " is there a rumor that I actually don't take personal responsibility?"

Was that an actual question?

It's a statement of fact

Good for him. Honestly

It's court-ordered. He's not even doing it except under duress. And, shocker, it never works for court-ordered junkies.

Jim makes tranny joke, looks around to check for laughing.

Fresh material Norton

Mr. "Why can't I become mainstream?" himself.

Good old Jimmy, straight in there with Ant being a tranny lover joke

Ants father is screaming "Pissy eyed fagot!" from the after life

Good for Anthony...I hope he takes it seriously.

He already isn't

Jesus Jimmy is way too thin.

Jimmy is Hollywood thin. You have to be, to have any hope of getting hired.

Doesn't it make more sense Ant going on Jim's advice show?

[deleted]

So when Ant gets out of rehab do we try to get him to drink again? or go all in and embrace him?

Get him to start spiking H

He apparently used to inject it directly into his face

....I don't like to be angry all the time.....welcome to life pissy eyes

This is actually a good message that despite being wealthy, living like a twenty something with all the drama as an older guy with a 'who cares' attitude will ruin you.

As much as Ant has fallen from grace he still makes Jimmy laugh more than anyone else.

This broadcast needs more opie ship steering

It still isn't on the RSS feed... Wonderful

maybe opie is spinning these records..

[deleted]

I recommend watching it through braun's live stream so Ant doesn't get the numbahs. Just one more way we can be cunts to him.

Edit: Link sent by PM

link?

link?

linkkk

He's been watching some old DICK! LOLOLOL

why the fuck can i only hear the audio

When he says some people he might as well say reddit

hahahahaha

[removed]

I wonder if Anthony is going to have some "work" done to improve his on-camera appearance and he's using "rehab" as the cover story...

He already had a bunch of work done and it made him look even more like a ghoul.

I'm betting on him coming back with the facial potholes filled...

Dermablasion. He should totally take care of that now that he insists on video.

Yeah filled with CUM..... from a TRANNY

Lol "ruin Good Will Hunting"

I like the chairs.

I can't imagine Ant will be able to sit by his pool in the summer without a cold beer, of having a nice glass of red wine by the fireplace at night.

I hope he actually opens up, for once.

That terrifies him more than a life without booze.

Aprehl Faahls

where is /u/braunheiser when you need him. PLEASE hook me up with a link PLEASE!

It's a free show today, just go to the link in the original post.

Sometimes you feel like you are the conductor of the rollercoaster but you never feel a need to conduct.

Wait, Rat quit? The fuck happened since I stopped paying for the show?!

Wanted a big pay raise so they hired the same guy for less.

Fuck, I have no idea what the fuck is going on anymore. Oh well, if Ant goes to Florida for rehab, maybe he and Fezzy can get together and work out a co-host situation.

YOLO bro

I knew 4 kids who got arrested for going around stealing guns from camps in the outer lake town. One of them said he wasnt in his right mind because he was drunk the whole time, and went to rehab to impress the judge. They all got a year in jail, he just did 2 months in rehab on top of it.

So this really wasn't court ordered, huh?

I genuinely hope he gets 'better' (whatever that is) because I've found the guy to be hilarious at various times and would like to again

Im not gonna rant about AA etc, but i don't believe in it. I just think he's a guy who's crossed the line numerous times, and his way of living is just sort of 'crossing the line'

He just needs to fucking dial a lot of things back. That includes drinking, ranting and all the other bullshit. I don't care if its fucking court ordered or not, good for him.

I feel like ant would like jail more. He gets to drink toilet booze and justifiably hang out with neo nazi's

It really makes me sad that he watches these Dick Cavett Show type shows relating them with his own job of interviewing Joe Devito. Like, actual, real sadness.

Rehab confirmed. Will be gone all of April.

We did it Reddit!

A lot of Xanax addicts actually die in rehab.

Yay, there is hope

So he is going for a ride in the country to live on a farm?

[deleted]

It's finally over.... Vaya con Dios Antonio Cumia

All of the recent subscription cancellations, including mine, must have pushed his hand. Money talks.

The judge and fear of jail pushed his hand.

I had respect for him before this show, now he's just a another quiter

ooooooooooh it's not court ordered? Yuck.. a Woman beater AND a faggot. Get it together....

I love Ron. We're from the same town. My dad went to high school with him and his brother.

Marcus Hook.

I think I'm getting downvoted because people know what a pile of shit Chichester is :(

Marcus Hook, Chicester, Ridley... What is up you "people"? I'm more educated and better off scum from another area a bit to the West. At least you're the last vestiges of white people on the front lines. That's a joke...

Chi sucks

You're not wrong. But Dairy King is the shit.

Yuck, you mutants are why people like Hitler become popular. I'm just joking though make sure your drunk older brother doesn't drive out in a rage to "fuck me up" and ends up committing vehicular manslaughter.

Why would you do a show after your rehab show? What the fuck is miswired in his mind?

CLUNK!

"Somehow, er, it's happening hehe" - Anthony.

It probably had more to do with when Jim and Ron could both come in. None of it makes sense, really. Who does a "I'm going to rehab!" show? You just GO.

He can still program his schedule so that it makes sense.

It's going to mean nothing. He'll be cracking jokes and looking around at everyone's reactions.

He's definitely not taking it seriously. This is a serious FUCK YOU to the legal system, especially with how nothing will change and he'll show off that fact on his show (assuming it lasts). I guess this is a lesson to all the people out there - If you're gonna pummel a smaller person than you ... make sure you have bucks. The worst you get is a "Time-Out".

[deleted]

Because Ron knows that the chemistry that Anthony and Jimmy has is stronger than him taking over and driving the show - and that it's not his show, and he lays back and lets Ant drive.

I think he likes Jimmy just fine.

We must be watching a different show. Ron is currently talking for about a minute straight on my feed during their Trump conversation. He earlier talked about how funny Jimmy's book was.

One thing that struck me is Jim saying he had something in the works, and was dealing with the Sirius lawyers, so couldn't announce it yet. "Hey, it's a money gig", or something like that.

He's outta there (Sirius) in October. He's setting up for it. This is good. As long as it's not that awful Chip cartoon, tho.

The Jim Norton Show

Jesus, I can't believe any of you sanctimonious douches were ever fans. Hate seeing Ant railroaded into this bullshit.

"Railroaded"? Implies this came out of nowhere, is unjustified, and from an external force. His own behavior put him in this position. He said this was not court ordered....u know, as in the domestic violence case he caught....sans railroad.

With the exception of a small % of ppl here (as w/ any group) theres no true hatred for the guy - just disgusted w/ his behavior over last couple months. And you want to see sanctimonious? Go look up his fucking post from few weeks ago, u dope.

Ok, I'll agree with about....oh, half of this. Wish to hell he'd stayed away from that girl. Period.

I bet rehab is a great place for tranny cock.

He already had a bunch of work done and it made him look even more like a ghoul.

The judge and fear of jail pushed his hand.

I had respect for him before this show, now he's just a another quiter

Where? Why is he getting on a plane? Is it in some exotic aisle?

And outside

Exactly, which is why I don't like it, either - but I understand why they use the term.

I'm sticking with it but Jesus Christ this fuck

Opie is the only "normal" person and can do exactly what you described, also he is unfunny as fuck

Hi Jimmy!
