Was it Jim who said "I miss Patrice" when Cumia was going on some racist Obama-era rant?

That reminds me of the Louis CK story about how he thought he'd discovered a terrorist submarine near the Statue of Liberty and when he got the Coast Guard on the phone they told him "That's a buoy. It's been there since 1938."

There's a moment during Anthony's Greggshells video where he discusses what made the Opie and Anthony show so great, and he specifically mentions "The current administration."

Anthony, without any loving self-awareness, thought that what really made the show good was him being racist for 4 hours a day. Those were the golden years.

That's amazing. Might be an age thing but everyone I know who listened to the show either quit before then or was turned off by Anthony going totally mask off. That poo poo led to him losing the show how can he be that stupid lmao

He also recently referred to his tirades as 'racial talk' and 'an honest discussion about race'.

Anthony’s version of an honest discussion about race was making up a story about some black kid yelling “Obama president now” at him.

In case someone didn't want to scour the whole two hour slog, here's Anthony trying to list examples of what made the show popular and the 2nd thing he ran into was the ~white house administration~

Been listening to some old bits and as bad as Anthony was on race Opie (on top of trying to stop great bits in their tracks by "moving on" or going to the phones) was the most performatively homophobic person. Any time Jimmy or guests would go into their young same-sex experiences he'd make a big show of being grossed out or wanting to move on.

I've been listening to the Jay Mohr shows when I can and there's one in 06 with Kevin Smith in studio and suddenly everyone bursts out laughing because Jay's running around naked and put his cock on some interns neck

Is it only a matter of time until there's an Opie gay sex scandal?

Would anyone even notice, it's not like anyone really pays attention to him now that the show is done.

Apparently intelligence on the O&A show meant "watching documentaries in between dating your friends' teenage children."

Opie's mutant power was being ignored. And it's been pretty smart of him to keep that up now that O&A is pretty much known as 'how famed pedophile and right-wing rear end in a top hat Anthony Cumia helped enable white supremacist terrorist groups.' He should feel lucky he vanished from the public spotlight and that his show is pretty much forgotten by everybody.

I think it's been for sale for a few months. I think it was like 3.2 million at the start now it looks like they slashed the price. He'll probably end up taking a huge loss on it.

Homes in America are always supposed to be seen as an “investment” or whatever but every time I read about someone selling a massive eyesore mansion like this it seems like they always take a huge bath on it—I guess I’m just not reading about all the people who sell their own Cumia compounds and actually make money off them?

I was surprised at how cheap it was, like I could sell my home and be able to get the down payment.

Of course, then I'd have to live in Long Island.
