It's a pretty weak end to a show that always felt like it was going to go out in a blaze of glory.

Well I would have to disagree there. It was an extremely convenient way for management to dump the racist baggage that's been part of the show forever, and also keep doing a comedy show. Op, Jim, and everyone else connected to that ecosystem are fortunate he didn't shoot her and tank their entire gig. If they want to continue come October, they probably can, they might even benefit from not being tied to this lunatic anymore.

It's a pale whimper compared to the Sex for Sam out though. I think he was thinking they would do something like that only ten times worse, which is of course impossible because SiriusXM wouldn't even let them near the equipment to create another debacle.

Unfortunately, it's the worst thing that ever happened to white Americans" and "MLK's dream is our nightmare." Edwards also warns against interracial relationships, writing that "Interracial sex is white genocide."

Jimmy has been especially wormy like that lately. On the Kevin Pollack podcast, Kevin instantly started asking why Roland isn't called Slobbo for being massively obese and annoying, and why he never gets any poo poo. Jim says "Well, Roland is a foodie, and eats good food, E-Rock eats pedestrian food and has a fat neck and is a slob" He wasn't even being ironic. Kevin tried a bunch more times to get Jim to trash Roland and he absolutely would not do it. I'm guessing for selfish reasons, such as Roland not getting him celebrity photo ops. At least I can kind of respect the fact that Jim is an apologist for Ant strictly because he makes Jim laugh.

Not to split hairs but I'm pretty sure he's talking about muslims and the religious extemeists in general rather than actual arab people.

For what it's worth yes I actually do think Jimmy makes the distinction as he's been more places and met more people from different backgrounds than Anthony ever has. I think he makes the mistake of thinking everyone in the middle east is an extremist regardless of what religion they are.

I'm not saying he's the example of tolerance but he is the kind of person if you could actually get someone to sit down and explain poo poo to him correctly he'd change his mind about things.

Jimmy absolutely used to do the Carolla-style generalization of people from the middle east as "all terrorists/savages" around 2003-2005, but he has really softened in recent years. He still bashes radical islam, but I've definitely heard him speak more open-minded about it in recent years (such as when that mosque was being built near ground zero or whatever). I'm sure his manager visiting places like Yemen and Afghanistan and relaying what it's like has probably also given Jimmy a more realistic view of what everyday people are like there.

You all are looking at this the wrong way. I will listen to The Anthony Cumia Show the same reason I would listen to radio evangelists or Alex Jones or late night infomericals. When you detach yourself emotionally from the content, it becomes quite fascinating.

That kind of white supremacist poo poo is exactly whats going to keep him from getting good guests on the show. Even comic friends are going to have a hard time attaching themselves to that kind of racism.

When people like Anthony keep repeating "open and honest", is it like one of those ritualistic vibrated buzzwords that just shuts out all logic in the speaker? I've never seen Anthony use that phrase in a sense other than to complain that the world isn't white enough.

Jimmy's different in his racism from Ant. Jimmy's racism comes from legitimately being a bonehead, Ant knows (or at least knew at some point) exactly what the gently caress he is. Jimmy will at least entertain the notion that he's wrong.

So by all accounts the first month when all eyes are on the show would be when ant calls in all his favors and books the big guests and so far he has dice and a couple of white supremacists.

Can't wait for 6 months from now when ant is plugging next weeks show when he's going to have Fred from Brooklyn, live in studio!
