Hey, Keith, it's Artie. Listen, I'm not gonna make it into work today. I'm sick; I'm sick as a dog.

it's like 3:00 on a Tuesday afternoon, and I got a fever... I'm spraying shit everywhere. I'm gonna try to get rid of this today and uh, I should be there tomorrow, hopefully. Sorry, Keith.

I think the show being in the afternoon is going to help a lot. He'll have plenty of time to cop before showtime.

unless he goes to a methadone clinic, there will be days he wont be able to find.. that is unless keith the cunt pulls a few strings

Reminder that Keith the cunt can't get Comio out of the biting accident

pull a few peckas

Pretty sure a longtime addict with reliable cashflow has many avenues and doesn't have to sit in a parking lot at 3am waiting for a friend of a friend who may or may not show up.

I agree but still, there will be times he wont be able to get.

It's NYC, there are about 10,000 street dealers in 10 square miles.

And once they get that studio in the city, it'll be a lot easier for Artie.

Maybe that's what the bump in sub money's about.

Keith will have a couple of stamp bags tucked away somewhere, for "emergencies".

When I saw him live back in February he was late for the show, despite having a hotel room in the Casino he was performing at.

Compound Media could be the swan song before his timely death. Which is far more embarrassing than any of his "I did blow while dressed like a pig" stories.

he still won't last. give it six weeks before Artie starts showing up late.

6 weeks? He won't be on time the first week

Best hope is to move the show back to Anthony's basement and let Artie live there free of judgement.

The studio isn't in Anthony's basement any more? Fuck I'm out of touch. Where is it now?

Downtown NY somewhere.

the top of the empire state building

I hope in the world trade center in 2001

Excuse me?

As a former opiate addict, i can attest to this. The day we dont have dope- its a wrap on that day until we can find some. This is going to be a disaster

I hadn't heard this

yeah, he tried to stab himself and he's been on drugs for a while.

That's all we need. Another addict with legal problems. DiPaolo would have been the way to go.

Let's all convince Nick to leave his burgeoning Sirius gig to work at CP Media.

Not leave. Supplement. Nicks show is now 8-10, when it was 6-8. He can do both shows, but on second thought... one of the shows will suffer because there's only so much to talk about.

Nah. Nick's a good guy. I dont want him to destroy his career with Anthony

He can do both shows, but on second thought... one of the shows will suffer because there's only so much to talk about.

There are 109 years of FBI crime statistics... I'm sure they'd find something.

Yeah, then maybe they'd finally get around to talking about race on TACS. Jesus Christ. I like Nick well enough, and hate liberals more than conservatives, but his show is boring, slow, unfunny and unlistenable.

But they do talk about race all the time already!

more like 6 episodes

Wait, do you mean to tell me that you don't think it's a good idea to have a show co-hosted by an alcoholic and an alcoholic drug addict - all produced by an ex cop with no previous experience in entertainment?

Get the fuck out of here!

Once they get into the NYC all three can just ride that wave to success.

No I don't

That's a pretty bold statement, sir.

I got hot takes on everything.

I wish you had hot lead in your skull.

Didn't you hear that they're working on a new logo?

I'm sure they are assuming Artie will only make it 2-3 days a week tops.

cough

He'll be late or a no show at the first sign of fog.

The fact that "Compound Media" still exists is the funniest thing about it

Good, they need to pivot out of politics. Gavin is tired some. Hopefully Artie brings in some comedians

I'm sick as a dog.

What kind of dog?

I think Artie would be a basset hound.

Artie's run on Compound is going to eclipse both the tenure and prestige of his time with Howard. He will become a model of punctuality and reliability under the guidance of Keith. His stand-up asking fee will again skyrocket with the invaluable promotional tool of the Compound platform.

Im looking forward to him nodding off during a long winded political rant the way he would during kathy griffin interviews

You know, there's actually a funny story about that...

Shouldn't Keith as a cop, be out there keeping the public safe from filth, scum, scammers and dangerous and violent sex offenders, instead of working with him?

Yes but he's known ant a long time

You'd be surprised by how many cops used to hang with the criminals they end up locking up, later in life. Two sides of the same coin, since you gotta be cool w/ pushing people around to be good at either.

When Artie got the Stern job he got calls from friends saying congratulations Art, I have you 3 weeks. When he gets the Cumia job he'll get the same call, but they'll be talking about his life expectancy.

Artie is on Greg Fitzsimmons podcast this week and it's the most lucid & funny Ive heard him in a long time. The ups & downs with that guy are just exhausting.

Whats the name of the podcast?

I don't even have the interest and energy to figure out how to cancel.

Whats the over under on him missing a show in the first month?

I've been out of the loop lately but did Artie recently relapse again, and if so, was it heroin?

Does the Pope shit in the woods?

Can you calm down on the nigger shit?

What's the over/under on Ant turning into a heroin addict? I'd like to think he's smarter than that... But his judgement doesn't seem fantastic.

Weird childhoods, substance abuse, getting fired from radio programs, losing lots of money, doing podcasts...those two should have no shortage of topics to discuss. By hour two though, they'll probably have to bring in a guest or something.

Artie Lange Co hosting the compound is fucking excellent news, not only does it hopefully bring Ant back to comedy instead of politics, better guests are more likely to visit, going to be a interesting first show. It's actually a big get for an independent radio show to get Artie.
