any of those early compound shows were at least funnier than Opie's afternoon shit show, and thats Opie with a bunch of co-hosts. Ant is 100% correct when he says that Opie is totally unable to be entertaining by himself.
i know you're trying to relate to this sub, and hop on he "lets bury Ant" train, i know you want to be part of the cool guys, its fine. But like i said earlier "when he's right he's right"
Despite that, last year he went into a full blown panic when his payed guests all stayed home and he was on his own. His “Ive been doing this since 18” is a fucking joke and Ant being a drunk cocksucker now doesnt change that.
Or he realises what a shitty show it would make by just having one dude on the radio talking about his boring life or recent news, so he simply skip that day instead.
Opie might be stupid, but he's not delusional into thinking he's interesting enough to do radio alone.
It's almost like he knows how asinine it was to partner with a heroine addict at the bottom of his career and is deflecting attention to Opie and his show that'll end up being just as bad. It probably makes him feel a bit better.
I don't understand why he's so hard on Opie, while at the same time he buddies it up with some of the shittiest failed comics of the east coast, who really have never and will never contribute anything to Anth's career. If he was really as nice as he pretends to be, he should be fine with Opie too. I think he's both faking that he likes those shitty comics and he's faking the Opie hate to pander to the fans. So slimy and gross.
Doesn't Opie lean slightly more left than Ant on most issues? For Ant, that's essentially all it takes.
And this is why I believe Opie didn't want to invest in Compound. Unless he had a majority stake, which Ant would never give him, they'd ball-bust him into quitting a week into the experiment.
Only reason those rabid dogs around him didn't eat him for lunch on every O&A show is that he was the main man on the marquee and had actual say on who gets to be there or not. He wouldn't have had that protection at the compound.
Ant will never let go of the fact that he was this close to being able to torment Opie on his own network, and the waiting paid off for Opie who's the main man where he works again.

And this is why I believe Opie didn't want to invest in Compound. Unless he had a majority stake, which Ant would never give him, he'd quit less than a week in, like Ron would. The compound gang isn't your average broadcast crew. There's a definite alt-right direction there.
Only reason those rabid dogs around him at the old show didn't eat him for lunch every day is that he was the main man on the marquee and had actual say on who gets to be there or not. He wouldn't have had that protection at the compound.
Waiting and taking those shots all these months (from us, mostly) seems to have paid off for Opie, who is back in the main chair again, where people HAVE to suck up to you to stay on the show. That must be killing Ant.

He wouldn't have had that protection at the compound. He'd have been the one who had to leave when he'd inevitably clash with the other hosts.
Playing the waiting game and agreeing to take shots all these months (from us, mostly) seems to have paid off for Opie, who is back in an environment where he's in charge, and the people around him HAVE to let him get away with chowing down on ass burger every show. That must be killing Ant.
Yeah it seems like PR. Opie never did anything wrong to Ant besides not resigning when he got fired and not signing with his company.
I mean in the end, he might be a douche but really, Opie never has been nasty at us for example. He just tries to move on and hates the ones hating on him.
That walk wasn't funny. Carl's was, bc it was 30 secs and unexpected. He just ripped off the Fat Cuban (who's a cunt but knows how to properly use social media ).
Solo shows suck. I don't want to listen to anybody's solo show. Not even Bill Burr. Quality guests are what makes the shows good. If O&A didn't have Patrice, Louis CK etc. It was just Anthony rambling about politics for 3 hours, it would be awful.
I'll say one thing about Opie, and Jimmy for that matter: if you hate them, you can get them out of your life by not listening, not following them on twitter, and not visiting this sub. They aren't forcing themselves on anyone.
Meanwhile, with Ant, wether you like it or not, he'll be rocketing through your school zones doing 120, weaseling out of punishment when the cops stop him, literally raping your 13 year old daughter, and keeping you up all night with his loud guinea pool parties.
From an outside perspective, someone who doesn't give a shit how talentless Opie is, who is really the bigger piece of shit between the two?
I don't give a shit what you animals think....I will ALWAYS enjoy watching Opie do better in the industry than Anthony.
You'd think it would be a wake up call to Cumia that no matter how "hilarious" he tells himself that he is, and no matter how much more talented he believes himself to be, no one is making him offers, because who would touch this man at this point?
So it's great watching Opie sign deals, and I hope his podcast immediately eclipses Compound Media...which shouldn't take much to do.
And I don't listen to, or give a shit about Opie.
In fact, that's the real test of a true broadcaster.
If Opie can't garner a bigger audience than Cumia...then yes, he should quit broadcasting.
These two faggots will go to the grave each trying to prove that they didn't need each other to be successful. Never mind the fact that when they met in their late thirties Anthony was crawling around in duct work and Opie was spinning records at 2 in the morning. They're both losers who clearly needed each other in order to be successful.
Howard Stern stopped doing solo shows in the late 70s once he figured out his formula for MASSIVE WORLD CHANGING SUCCESS...
The formula was to not do solo shows. Ant made a success of himself by copying that formula. Ant is now a drunken basement rambler and he thinks it's 'radio'. Oofa!
I just stumbled onto this thread. Am I in some sort of bizzaro world? Opie put the breaks on that show for years. The reason I listened was Jimmy and Anthony; Opie was a speed bump.

Ant added a cohost to save his show. He has no place to talk.
1 NortheastPhilly 2018-03-18
He’s at least capable of doing radio by himself. Or he was for many years
1 Chippahjim 2018-03-18
What were the good Ant solo shows with no jimmy?
1 NortheastPhilly 2018-03-18
None exist, but he was capable
1 Chippahjim 2018-03-18
Well I've seen him do solo Compound shows and they were not great. I'm a fan of Ant (at least was) but I don't know why he thinks he can do solo radio

1 Chippahjim 2018-03-18
So the standard is better than Opie? No said Opie was good by himself. Ants just throwing out there for some reason.
1 Frequent2001 2018-03-18
Ant is right, Opie can't do shit by himself. end of story.
1 Chippahjim 2018-03-18
Don't say end of story like your proclaiming some ultimate response. No one asked Ant. He's probably salty Opie has a job.
1 Sippycupofpee 2018-03-18
A job where opie only has to cash a check. Even if it’s a disaster, opie has a corporate job where he is responsible for zero except showing up.
1 Frequent2001 2018-03-18
i know you're trying to relate to this sub, and hop on he "lets bury Ant" train, i know you want to be part of the cool guys, its fine. But like i said earlier "when he's right he's right"

What cool guys? "Lets bury Ant train?" That's the gayest thing ever posted on this sub by far

you sir, are a champion.
1 tranthonycumiashow 2018-03-18
In fairness, he had a few good solo shows, but not enough to do a consistent solo show. of high quality.
1 Fagghouli 2018-03-18
No he's not, just look at the fear in his eyes during his mess of a show with basically no format.
1 NortheastPhilly 2018-03-18
Either way, I think he has room to talk about Opie’s poor radio skills
1 Fagghouli 2018-03-18
How so? Opie has been doing radio for a long, long time and has been very succesful for doing so. Ant was the wacky second mic.

Opie could completely blow up what ever is left if he’d just tweet “only if you can stop being a racist pedo for 1 hour”

In AntH's world only a real broadcaster would throw away the last bit of integrity he had left and do a regular show for Alex Jones.

Being able to talk for an hour doesn't make you a good broadcaster. If that was the case networks would be clamouring for Bobo's signature.

Live From The 405 Podcast is a solo show. (A friend told me)
1 celestial_detrital 2018-03-18
What's with Antwan's sudden broadcaster gatekeeping? Who even cares if someone's a broadcaster or not?
1 Christopher_Barton 2018-03-18
Anthony isn't a broadcaster, he's a podcaster who thinks hiding behind a paywall somehow makes him legitimate after being fired.
1 3stepsbackward 2018-03-18
This man has become so delusional and unlikeable, it's starting to make Opie look good by comparison. This is sickening on every level.

1 StraightOuttaContra 2018-03-18
Ant obviously doesn't keep up with Opie's solo show pop ups. Shocking I know.

If Ant was so much better than Opie, how come nobody signed him when he got fired in 2014?
1 TacoTrots 2018-03-18
It's because Ant is 100% honest, maaaaaaan, and the "liberal media" are terrified of that.
1 Chippahjim 2018-03-18
Agreed. Glad Opie winning if it pisses Ant off. Lest we forget Ant has to pay out salaries
1 Not_My_Real_Acct_ 2018-03-18
Sorry, that's a bridge too far.
I'm not going to celebrate the fact that media has become so God awful, a hack like Opie gets a paying gig before Anthony Cumia.
Ant is human garbage but he's undeniably more entertaining.

Opie's first bit on the new format could be renting a hot air balloon and bra bombing The Compound. Then we'll know that the gloves are really off!
1 ImDyingOvaHere 2018-03-18
Trying to talk like he's an authority on professionalism is yet another example of Ant's staggering lack of self-awareness these days.
