When you lucked out once, blew it all, and realize that it won't happen again

Look at all those pages of FBI crime stats strewn about.

What could he even do to make his face look better?

A 10 gauge to the roof of his mouth oughta do it.

Dip it in a hydrochloric acid bath.

Looks like he's already tried.

This is literally the first time I’ve seen him in four years without that fake ass "I’m secretly screaming and weeping inside" smile on his face.

The mask momentarily slipped. This is the real Anthony Cumia. An exhausted alcoholic, filled with self hatred and bitter regret.

Stop making me sympathize with him

Ain't it fun?

I can forgive the kid fucking, the vampirism, the racism and the bounty he put on this place. What I cant forgive is that fucking terrible set. Its uglier than Bobo

Not a single top podcaster uses green screen. He still thinks he's Johnny Carson.

Guinea fuck only needed a coffee table and mics, but Keith talked him into dropping 50k at B&H instead.

If Ants studio got robbed they could very easily spin it to making it look like a makeover.

You could make a fortune in consulting.

Seeing Anthony do his schtick these last few years, as opposed to just hearing him on the radio, has made it apparent that he is really just a hack at heart. The green screen, the hacky bits like DICIS, the presentation of his show, his over the top body language, he really never grew out of the 1975 method of trying to make it in show business.

None of this shit was necessary. All people wanted was for him to be funny. Instead he set up his show where he stares directly into the camera like he is reporting on the nightly news.

Too true. All we wanted was good ole Ant riffing on something funny. It's a shame to think what could have been.

he really never grew out of the 1975 method of trying to make it in show business.

Hmm, interesting. Plz elaborate.

One thing we always like to goof on about Anthony is how completely locked in the past he is.

How he never joined the 21st Century

Fuck you DICIS was a good bit

Doesn't bother me nearly as much as Tony 2 shirts

Nah man he likes to shop on Saturdays.

Aren't tin knockers qualified socioeconomic experts? To the extent that comedy shows with tin knockers as hosts should dedicate substantial portions of the show to discussions on crime and race? Rigth?

You talk about what you know. All he does is look for statistics and video to reinforce his political beliefs while he drinks himself to sleep every night.

I don't think we've had any affect on his career

"Miss You!" (jet skis)

Anthony fucked up by going after Opie. It took half of his revenue away. I love when people think they are special... What a fucking absolute pock faced idiot to make such emotional decisions... Tweeting hate shit because a hooker called your dumb ass out, going after the guy who gave you glory in the first place and saved you from a life of tin-knocking and "Hey pocky go get lunch, fruit" and then fucking his buddies daughter and biting her.... Jesus christ. Maybe you should drink more Bud Light stupid...

I liked how a big thing he tried to push in his book and in the few podcasts promoting it was going back and apologizing and trying to clear up that “if anyone’s a racist it’s not me”, even using the typical cliche “I was doing a character” line. That whole thing was one last desperate plea to be allowed back in the fox news building or for someone out there to notice him and think he’s employable, and it’s painfully obvious nothing is gonna come from it

What did he do? I'm new to this.

We're all just jealous. He's having a great time!

THE TIME OF HIS LIFE HAHA!

Look at your surroundings

I dont think we've had any affect on his career

Freedom to say whatever he wants!!!

Whether or not anyone is even listening!

Ain't it fun?!

Seriously, what's with all the fucking papers? Is it supposed to be some passive aggressive fuck you to liberals by wasting paper or can he not just buy an extra I-Pad for himself and put all his notes on that?

I mentioned it previously, but it's because Anthony is stuck in the past when it comes to presenting his show. The green screen, the desk, the staring directly into the camera the whole time, his show is set up like the nightly news and it makes no fucking sense. He just has such an outdated idea of what people want from a podcast.

Rush Limbaugh has been rustling papers into a microphone for over 20 years, and he said he stole it from someone older than him.

Of course, Rush uses it intentionally to signal a change in topic to the listener.

Anthony probably just does it now and then to cover the fact that he doesn't know what to do with his hands. I doubt he even knows why he has paper up there consciously.

a fool and his money are soon parted

I think it's time for old Tony two shirts to hang up the button up.

Note the permanent tint of green on both of his cheeks, because these jokers still haven't mastered the green screen after years of doing this.

But Ant has no issues making fun of how Opie does his job.

​

Plus Opie actually knows he isnt on radio but on a podcast and really embraces it, doing shows in sheds and cars and restaurants. He has been stuck in some glass box for 30 years and hes making up for lost time. For Opie the radio box was holding him down, for Ant it was the only thing keeping him above obscurity. Ant would have never left the house his entire life if given the chance. He would have forced the other two to do the show from there even 20 years ago if he could have convinced them

I dunno, the idiot needs to downmix his podcasts to monaural. The moving voices is nauseating.

If he was more outgoing, things could have been so much different. In 4 years he's made 2 trips to LA to promote himself. I would be bugging everyone to do their podcasts like LOS, Bobby, anyone that would have me. He could have started doing stand up even, on the side. The more options you give yourself, the better. But he mostly just stays in his house/his own comfort zone.

I seem to remember he was showing up at a lot of comedy clubs doing something until he got banned from everywhere some time last year. Once that happened the comedy podcast community at large wanted to be nowhere near someone with his profile plus he can't promote anything so he's not bringing an audience to any show he does. He's created the most perfect state of obscurity for himself

That's pretty spot on. He really fucked himself into a fitted hat. Damn it, Anth.

How much money does he have left

37 dollars and 19 cents.

Whatever the number you can bet it has a minus in front of it

I'm still not understanding how he managed to fuck this up; get a normal looking studio set up with mics and a table (no green screen) avoid politics, be somewhat funny with decent guests, and don't say nigger.

You took your lucky break, and broke it in two. Now what can be done for you?

So great, I called this shit happening years ago in his stupid paltalk room. He'd eventually fuck his arrogant self into a corner and go bankrupt. This piece of shit forgot where he came from a long time ago, forgot who gave him his chance (and I don't like Opie), and though everyone genuinely though he was a talent instead of a top radio show they could use to promote themselves. I wonder if half those paltalk zombie asswholes are still around, or if they even sub to his show? I bet they all bailed and scattered like roaches. Too bad there were great shows and he did great impressions. I'm rubbing my hands now at the thought one day I'll be buying a TV from Best Buy Sam Roberts after his time runs out!

"There's a T on my head."

Dumb green hue on his face. This retard still thinks that green screen is a good idea.

Where the fuck is my VIEW. FUK

What makes you think he blew through his money?

he cant pay anyone with talent to be on his media platform and also substitutes for owen shroyer on infowars.
