Artie is in the hospital for drug use.

When it was announced that he'd be doing a show with Anthony, I figured he was doing bad and likely didn't have better options. Sad to hear as he's really funny. Just a matter of time before he dies.

Is this coming from a news site or is it coming from Nick DiPaolo? I can't find anything online about it. Is it some kids in the neighborhood egged his house and he decided that it must be antifa out to destroy him for making jokes on a radio show practically no one listens to?

Not a fan of Derosa but I wouldn't say he's bad. Just nothing to him.

The only comic I don't get the love for is Kindler. I've never seen him ever be funny.

Written by a failed comedian who would likely benefit a great deal if all those funny comedians no longer could get work.

I feel like Anthony may have the moral high ground on this one which seems impossible to say.

I guess this was the tweet.



I don't get why these guys torpedo their careers over loving Twitter. Having a show on Sirius is a sweet gig for a guy at that stage in his career.

He probably only needs about 10,000 subscribers to make some decent money. It'll never touch the Sirius money he made but probably enough to live comfortably on.

The Roseanne thing reminded me of Anthony's firing. I don't really think that specific Twitter rant got him fired. I think it just drew attention to the heaps of racist poo poo that was flying under the radar.
Though the Roseanne thing may be final straw type of situation (and a specific person was attacked).
That whole weekend after his Times Square creepshotting was full of Gawker-like articles with old clips from the show.

All they had to do was just not tweet. Well maybe tweet out some promotion for the show but that's it. You then get millions.

Half the poo poo they hammer him for is stuff he'd do on the radio that was just as bad. I couldn't stand how he'd go on and on about what food they were eating that day like anyone gave a poo poo.

The best thing about Jim was that he'd bring funnier people on O&A all the time. Imagine how bad that show would have been without Patrice, Louis, etc making regular appearances.

That is a man who has never lifted a weight in his life. Which is weird because he's all into that weird diet.

This is a long time ago but was Jimmy the one who would wait outside the bathroom at events trying to get a Derek Jeter autograph and then had an on-air meltdown over getting blown off?

Howard would ban guests that did O&A from his show I believe. I kinda wonder sometimes if that's why Gilbert couldn't get on the air anymore.

I remember Jay Mohr was banned because he appeared on O&A. But I think Gilbert just wasn't invited back because Howard was moving away from those types of guests. He had that one appearance where he kept making racist jokes and it seemed to genuinely upset Robyn.

@murderbryan on twitter (Streetfight Radio) has done a bunch of shock jock podcast stuff, i'm sure this thread is probably aware, but just throwing it out there

Yeah, if anyone wants a really good deep dive into shock jocks, I highly recommend the Shockjock episodes by Murder Bryan. I think you can only get them on his Patreon, but there's like 40 hours of them talking about O&A, Stern, Mancow, Greaseman, Lykas, Bubba, etc. He has good guests on too for them (Felix Biederman appears in a lot). Anyway, the Mancow episodes are incredible.

Remember when Anthony called up Mancow to prank him and just ended up asking a legitimate question before Mancow dumped his call?

I think Anthony was your standard blue-collar racist from Queens for most of the show. When Obama won, it made him crazy and he went full-on stormfront.
