Joining me today, ladies and gentlemen, you know him, you love him, haven't talked to him in a while, haven't seen him in a while.
One of the funniest fucks on the internet, on radio.
He gets it. Let's put it that way.
It's the charming and lovely Anthony Cumia.
Oh, Nick. There he is.
What's happening?
How you doing, my friend?
Oh my God, you're clean shaven and shit. What happened? I don't know what happened. Yeah, Nick. There he is. What's happening? There's Nick DiPaolo. How you doing, my friend? Oh, my God.
You're clean-shaven and shit.
What happened?
I don't know what happened.
Yeah, yeah.
I just got out of the shower.
This is early for me.
Yeah, me too, actually.
So this is, that's your apartment in Mineola, you said?
Yeah, yeah.
I'm buying a house down there in South Carolina.
It's being built i've been here
on that forever when you're getting down here oh god asap really i can't take it anymore but uh
i i have to sign another lease in this shithole because uh of uh you know putin's putin's material
uh problems i can't get a fucking interior doors
or a refrigerator at my new place
because of Vladimir Putin.
You sure it's not Biden?
Oh, no, it can't be.
I'm being told every day it's not.
So, wait a minute.
So, obviously, the other house is gone.
The McMansion.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
That went about a year ago.
Yeah, I sold that a year ago.
I've been here in the lovely town of Mineola,
the train station's right out the window.
Oh, yeah, it's fantastic.
Isn't it great where radio took it?
It's so fucked up.
Yeah, last year I was swimming in my nice big pool.
Now I'm stuck in a fucking apartment in Mineola.
So can we mention a town in South Carolina?
People know, right?
Oh, yeah, Greenville.
Oh, you did?
Greenville.
You know, there used to be a comedy club in Greenville.
That's the first time I ever played South Carolina, about 30 years ago.
That's excellent.
So you can't be that far from me, right?
No, not at all.
It's pretty close.
And it's just so much nicer.
I want to get out of here so bad.
They're holding me here.
I decide, okay, I'll have a house built down there. So they're holding me here i i you know i decide okay i'll have a house uh built down there so
they're building it and again the materials and uh it just takes forever to get shit done these
days under under the great joe biden i can't fucking imagine trying to build a house because
we just we redid our kitchen we and redoing bathroom, and the pace is glacial.
I don't know how my wife wheeled the deal.
She fucking, but she did, but she sped it up.
I have no idea.
Maybe a handjob here and there.
I have no idea.
But I can't imagine putting a, so, I mean, what's the scheduled date?
That's going to take a while, no?
Well, it's already, it's been being built for a while now.
So, you know, most of it's in.
I just got a text, the floors are going in and all that, you know.
I get updates and whatnot.
But it's not fast enough, man.
This New York, Nick, New York is just a goddamn disaster.
And the city itself is even worse than the rest of the state.
So the whole state's a disaster and the city is the asshole of the state.
I can't fucking believe what I read.
I used to report, you know, when somebody get pushed in front of a subway, I'd report it on this show.
Because it's still, we shouldn't be that desensitized.
But Christ's sake, now I yawn when I read it.
Yeah, they always.
The lady lost an arm.
Big fucking deal.
She was Chinese.
She was 80.
Who gives a fuck?
But now, you know what I mean?
It is that place.
I have to go there maybe for this premiere.
I did a movie with Louis last fall in upstate New York, actually Lake George, the only nice place in the state.
last fall in upstate New York, actually Lake George, the only nice place in the state.
And they're doing a premiere at the beginning of July sometime in one in Boston, one in New York. I don't even want to, like, I'm actually nervous about walking around New York.
Yeah, that's what you do.
You walk around, you're constantly, you know, your head's on a swivel.
There's drug dealing going on, blatantly open-air drug dealing all over the city.
We got this new mayor that's hilarious.
He just loves going to, like, the Met Gala, and he has big things in Gracie Mansion here in New York City.
And the guy has done nothing to try to thwart the crime, the rampant crime that's going on in New York.
And that's what he ran on. He was the fucking
police commissioner, head of the cops, whatever,
commissioner, law and order guy.
Law and order guy. Then he's got a fucking
coat on at the gavel. Looks like Liberace
met the fucking bloods.
Stupid ass.
Why the fuck?
I can't even. The minute
I saw his face and heard him speak for the first
time i go they just got another not of the blasio i won't go that far but they just got another soft
how after i asked colin quinn this yesterday how after you experience what giuliani did for you
i guess all those people are dead now uh but you found it found a mayor like that that turned that city around how do you ever go back to this what does it it's a marxist it's a communist center new york
it's fucking it it's so fucked up that we had it like we had but that's the whole country
you know we we finally did it we oh, look, the economy's great.
Crime is down.
We had it.
And they just got to fuck it up.
And boy, have they ever.
On a city level, state level, and a federal, national level, they've just taken what was working, what was good and and just trashed it tell my tell my
listeners down here down here i'm on the internet hack like i'm in a local news station in savannah
here's peeny with the weather uh no tell my listeners what just give an idea for people
who never lived in new york what your property taxes were when you were living in your other house uh sixty thousand dollars a year i didn't even know that 60 yeah between the uh
the property tax and the school tax every year uh i would have to pay sixty thousand dollars to the
the state and uh uh to to have the the pleasure of living on my own property
yeah look i own my own land oh sixty thousand please it's the mafia and how many kids did you
have in those school systems none zero yeah you're you're paying to educate the kids who are going to
mug you in 10 years on the fucking platform yeah and now you know down there kids who are going to mug you in 10 years on a fucking platform. Yeah.
And now, you know, down there, my taxes are going to be maybe, maybe $3,000, $4,000.
That's right.
I went from $26,000 a year in Westchester to $3,500.
I figured out with cost of living, like cigarettes, gas gas when i moved down here three years ago
i was up 70 grand by getting out of westchester county new york i was up yes i made 70 grand by
leaving just by leaving yeah i mean everything and that you know that doesn't even include the
other things uh the price of gas is is insane now it's reached such a bad level that they have to actually dredge up hearings on something that happened a year and a half ago.
On network television, primetime, they've got to get up there.
Celebrities have got to come out and do promos for this.
You're going to watch it.
You're going to.
They need you to watch this propaganda.
This this fucking weeks long campaign is pretty much what it is because they got nothing but disaster.
They've left in their wake for hasn't even been two years yet.
If I wanted to destroy the United States or get re-elected again just run as a
joke and see how i could fuck it up how bad i couldn't have done as well as they have done
i i've never seen anything i don't think they're capable not just of being good politicians of
being adults in an adult world the left They're living in some fucking wet dream.
It's insane.
I just, I sit there with fucking,
and nobody mentions,
nobody mentions like Kavanaugh,
you know, fucking guy shows up with a gun
and trying to kill.
Nobody, they don't even bring it up.
But it's not, you know, again,
there's the whole thing with the insurrection and Trump was instigating the whole thing.
There's literally quotes of him saying stuff like now we're all going to go down to the Capitol and peacefully voice our opinions.
And never once saying get in there do damage hurt anybody and then you got chuck schumer talking
about uh cavanaugh you've released the whirlwind and you will pay the price and then some guy
grabs a gun and duct tape and zip ties and screwdrivers to kill this guy and no one says
like ah maybe he said some shit that incited some guy.
Not a peep out of these motherfuckers.
Not a fucking peep.
You talk about inciting.
And that's all they do.
Can you imagine if that was a Sotomayor and some guy with a Trump hat showed up?
I'm so sick of pointing out these double standards where I'm almost at a point where I go, you know what?
I wish somebody would show up and sort of my house for the Trump.
Can we push back even a little?
I mean, me and me and Colin were arguing yesterday about the insurrection.
First of all, it wasn't an insurrection.
There was no guns there other than the cop that shot the white lady.
Trump's unarmed.
That was the only gun there.
So it wasn't a fucking insurrection.
You get this guy, Ray Epps You got this guy, Ray Epps.
That fucking guy, Ray Epps.
Nobody knows where he is. He's standing there with a
Trump hat going, we gotta go in now.
Even right there, the Trump
supporters are calling him out going, no!
Yeah, fed.
Nobody can find him.
People were indicted
on all kinds
of, you know, co-conspirators indicted on the same charges
but only only half of them got arrested there's so many red flags saying this was i even anthony
people think i'm crazy i even i look at the footage it doesn't even look like a real riot
not even a small one have you ever seen violent we've seen violence
in the street it moves fast people throw punches bottles i did i see this whoa get back a couple
of smoke bombs it looks so staged to me it does not only does it look staged in that way, you're absolutely right. There's this almost Hollywood look to it where it's just a lot of jumbled moving.
No one seems to have been able to record it from a relatively close angle.
And they're not directly in the fray.
Like it's all just moving around.
That's what I'm talking about.
So it isn't me.
I've watched some of it today
you're like an elbow hits the camera and yeah this this nobody like you said could be like
maybe in a tree 20 feet away getting it all it's either this up close or they're in a you know a
drone looking down you could almost heal you could almost hear spielberg going and action
it doesn't the speed of it even when they were breaking the windows and pushing in
there's one some footage of a the cop one of the capital cops on the steps remember the people
are coming up and he just sort of get back there's no i don't see real violence going on i
know real violence moves at 100 miles an hour and and people are getting... And the audio from the police radios sounds like you're watching Forensic Files, a recreation.
They just took the train and got some guy.
Yeah, he's like, we're here.
They are breaking through the barricades.
They are breaking through the barricades.
It doesn't sound like any of the
actual, again, I've heard
actual police recordings of
them on a scene of a violent crime
or what have you. It sounds like
bad actors
acting badly.
Yes. No, recreations.
That's perfect.
I watch your shows all the time. I'm obsessed
with them. My mother's on the floor. She's perfect. I watch those shows all the time. I'm obsessed with them.
My mother's on the floor. She's dying.
Yeah.
I don't see that energy,
that forensic energy that you see when there's real violence. It just all
looks... I kept my mouth shut
because everybody's...
Me and Colin are arguing.
Colin's always... He's the level-headed guy.
He's like, first of all, it was a setup.
You deserve it.
It's so stupid.
They set it up.
And Trump's people took the bait.
And I'm like, okay, well, if it was a setup, that makes the government evil, as I thought.
And if it wasn't, I go, let's say it wasn't.
They were really there.
Because have you seen 2,000 mules yet? Yeah.
Yeah. I don't know.
About an hour and a half of footage proving
this was the biggest, fuck,
this last election was the biggest fucking
heist in the history of this country politically.
So you might want to look at that.
But I'm like, okay, so
we're
Americans. There's nothing
more Americans in charge in the Capitol.
This is how shit happens.
If everybody thought, you know, you've got to cool the heads, don't take the bait,
we'd still be under British rule.
At some point, you've got to go, fuck, I have no problem with what happened.
I've got to be honest.
I know people are going, well, politically, it's stupid.
Well, when we
threw the British off our back and we're throwing
teeth, we didn't know that was going to be political.
You know, we...
You know what I'm saying? Politically expedient.
You've got to do... If you really thought
that the fucking election was stolen,
which is a ton of evidence.
Did you see this? I got my tooth knocked out
at a rally.
Look at this. I got my tooth knocked out at a rally. Oh, God. Look at this.
I lost that making a movie with Louie, the one I was just telling you about.
And I got it fixed last fall.
I'm eating a peach the other night.
All of a sudden, I go, I feel the tooth go down my throat.
Oh, shit.
Oh, shit is a perfect line because I go online and everybody goes oh you just have to
find it in the toilet and i go what and these are doctors online going yeah i'm gonna panhandle
from a fucking through porn and fucking anyways what i'm saying is that was a false flag
or something i really do i i don't nobody had guns and you're calling it an insurrection how
embarrassing no one has guns the only person
that was killed uh at that thing was that woman uh uh by uh you know yeah a black capital police
officer nothing i mean they don't even look into here's the here's the thing you bring up a great
point with the the fact that uh uh no one looks at these things we have 2 000 mules we have all
this evidence of something wrong now you
would think imagine years ago a young journalist actually going like wow I'm
gonna jump on this story and and see if there's something to it they don't even
look they don't even want to look because you know the powers that be will
destroy their careers and they're a bunch of
Liberal douchebags anyway, they're they're agenda-driven. They're protecting the power base
These are stories hunters laptop all these things are stories that any real journalist would go
holy shit, this is gonna make my career and
Nothing, they don't even want oh, it's been debunked. By who? Who the fuck debunked the election, by the way?
Screwing with the election.
I've yet to see why,
because you said it's debunked, it's debunked.
Yeah.
Well, when you have the blowhorn and you outnumber all the other blowhorns,
you can lie and people will grab onto it.
We're talking to the great Anthony Comia, by the way.
And Gutfellow is watching.
He made a great point the other day.
These reporters don't touch the shit later on.
Like, once it became verified that it wasn't Hunter's laptop, you know, the New York Times comes out.
But they don't touch it before then because they helped in the covering up.
They can't re-report on shit that they had something to do with.
The Russian collusion thing, the Trump
Russia collusion thing is one of the biggest
lies and people
won Pulitzer Prizes
for their journalistic
fucking excellence on
a story that is absolutely
proven to be bullshit
and they won't even, they'll kind of mention
it, but they won't do
an in-depth story on it and talk about how they were bamboozled by the clinton campaign or anything
they just go oh yeah by the way i remember that shit that uh uh we were saying every day of the
week for months and months and months and years uh it was all bullshit back to your regularly
scheduled program yeah yeah Where's the...
Again, I guess because the Libs out
number, but boy, can you imagine if the
Republicans put on... There wouldn't be
show trials, but actually trials
for the people that started the whole
Russia collusion. Adam Schiff should be
fucking hanging in a cell right now.
That fucking guy.
That dirty, dirty
jig. Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell.
The fact that I read his social media posts,
and I'm like, this guy fucked a Chinese spy.
How is he not in hiding somewhere?
How did he not go to China and beg them for some type of political fucking freedom?
The guy should be in one of those stocks in a town square until they build the guillotine
for him, this son of a bitch.
And he's out there preaching about what a piece of shit you know
trump is and this one and and it's it no one has any sense of decorum or pride or
they just go out and lie right to your fucking face they they because they can and they and let
me and that brings up the next question where were the the Republicans in all this? I'm done.
I hate them as much as the fucking Dems.
At least the Dems.
You know, there should be somebody on TV still screaming about the Russian collusion every day or whatever.
Where are the, you know, I see the Jim Jordans and these guys that make great speeches at these hearings.
And then they just disappear.
I swear to God, Anthony, I'm so cynical.
It's just a,'s just a giant script.
Everybody has a part in it.
Even Trump was, you know, I swear to God.
There's 10 guys that run the planet, probably seven Jewish.
And just kidding, folks, relax.
Everybody says that.
I thought I'd throw that in.
But I swear to God, there's 10 guys that run the planet.
Six of them are trans, I'm guessing.
And there's a script.
Because Rockefeller, David Rockefeller, his family is in the middle of this shit.
There's a website, my late great buddy, the cop, Zook, who passed away.
He used to go to it every day.
It's Rockefeller something.
You could check off.
They planned 25 years ahead of time how to foment a revolution, and you could
check off the shit being done today.
Like, literally, just check.
So it's all
been done and tried before, so
excuse me if I'm being a little
cynical, but
this shit has been done before, and the
Chinese are playing the long game. We can't
see past next Thursday.
They're sitting back reaping the rewards while all these things, like you just said, the cynicism.
How are you not cynical?
How do you go into the elections this Novembermber the midterms and think uh that that
it's going to be okay and your vote matters and and everything's going to be on the up and up
no what no one should be able to walk into a voting booth and think that their vote's going
to be counted and and the true winner's going to come out that shit's gone that shit's done
we're we're we're done thinking the system
works and it's the greatest system in the world well it's so funny you say that i remember living
out in los angeles when i was doing like grace under fire brett butler became a friend of mine
she was smart as a whip lefty you know uh to some extent uh yeah uh but i remember we were at dinner
trader joe's whatever the fuck it was called. And my manager, her manager, and we're having dinner.
And the election had just happened.
I forget which one in the 90s, Clinton or whatever the fuck.
And I bring up how I vote.
And she goes, isn't that cute?
He thinks his vote counts.
And I went, what do you fuck?
What do you mean it doesn't count?
What are you, a fucking?
And boy, was she right.
Yeah.
That was in the mid-90s.
Yeah. That was in the mid-90s. Yeah, I was just a typical conservative Republican guy that thought the system worked.
And you're like, oh, drats.
You know, they've got this Clinton guy in there now.
Or, oh, yeah, good.
We got Bush in there now.
Oh, hell, this Obama guy.
And then you realize, like, oh, like you said, it's all scripted.
You check out.
You see these guys are bashing each other.
These are life and death issues that they're discussing.
And then there's a picture of them with their arms around each other in the Oval Office or in the Senate chamber.
And you're like, oh, they're all asshole buddies.
And we're the fucking joke.
They must laugh
thinking how stupid
the American people are while
they do this dance
in front of us every two
or four years. Yeah. And the Dems
said, look, we get to laugh out loud.
Your role, Jim Jordan
and Ted Cruz, you guys have to pretend. Here's my best analogy ever. I gave it to Gutfeld. I said, look, we get to laugh out loud. Your role, Jim Jordan and Ted Cruz, you guys have to pretend.
Here's my best analogy ever.
I gave it to Gutfeld.
I said, the Republicans are the Washington generals, the team that travels with the Harlem Globetrotters and feigns to be their competition.
That's who the Republicans are.
That's your role.
Dems are like, we get to tell people how stupid they are,
the American people, right to their faces.
You guys have to pretend to defend those idiots.
And like you said, then they all go have a beer together.
That's where I'm at.
My wife, she dragged me down to vote in the primaries here.
I didn't even know they were, you know.
It's like a Tuesday.
My wife's going, we got to go.
Go where?
It's right down the street.
So I didn't want to fucking have a 10-minute fight. I go, where? It's right down the street, so I didn't want to fucking have a 10-minute fight.
I go, you really think?
I said, they hijacked the fucking presidential election.
You think this is no dirty shit?
And you're going to drag me to the?
So I go in there.
I recognize about three names.
You know, Herschel Walker.
Yeah, you fucking great football player.
Herschel Walker's on there.
A couple at camp, I'm like,
I don't even like them. Even the guys I'm supposed to like,
I don't, you know. And then
there was a whole bunch of things you vote on.
I just went Republican, Republican.
Which is, you know, part of the problem. Everybody just votes
party. What do you want me to do, vote Democrat?
They're calling me a piece of shit. I'm a terrorist.
I'm a domestic terrorist.
Domestic terrorist, you're the problem.
You know, the whole uh you know we've
seen that also the the greatest uh terrorist threat to america now is uh white uh young white
men and and then you know they keep shitting on uh a group of people and then when they lose their
fucking minds and do something atrocious they they wonder what happened? We need a motive here.
What happened? Well, for an entire
couple of generations, you've
been telling these people they suck, they're the
evil, they're the
cause of every problem we have
in this country, and then when they lose
their fucking mind and go on a
tear with a gun, you go, well, we
just gotta figure this out.
What's going on what's
what could be the problem when's the last time a white guy really did something horrible
racially i mean the kid that shot up the church in south carolina but again
fucking cuckoo and they'll say that oh yeah you always say you know that's an eye well it is an
isolated incident compared to uh what goes on in the black community,
mass shootings happen every weekend in Chicago.
If the definition is four people, the fuck, that's a Wednesday night in Chicago.
You had the guy that shot up the grocery store in Buffalo, here in New York.
And then our
interim governor, because
Cuomo is such a piece of shit, they had to throw him out.
And this woman steps in the seat
like she got elected.
Like she actually was elected.
Like we all went, yeah, good.
We love your ideas. We elected you.
She slides into the seat
and she's making all kinds of legislation
now. Gun legislation, which is hilarious.
Do you know in New York State, we already have had an assault weapon ban since 2013.
Nine years.
We've had a large capacity magazine ban.
We've had in-depth background checks.
These are all things in place in New York for nine years.
checks. These are all things in place in New York for nine years.
And this guy was able to
get an AR-15 and shoot
up a friggin' store and kill
ten black people and
now they want a
federal law
that is the same as New York
that has proven it doesn't work because we just
saw what happened. But the left
is so stupid, they'll look at that and this is
how they think. Even with all those laws we have in the books, it's not enough.
Instead of saying the real problem, oh, they went around the laws.
It doesn't matter what the laws are because outlaws are outlaws.
But they go, oh, we need more laws on top of the ones that don't work.
No, it doesn't matter.
You can have a trillion laws covering everything.
That's what makes people outlaws.
I can't believe that they don't get that.
Or they're the greatest actors in the world.
I guess they really don't.
You can't act for 40 years and believe that we need more gun crime.
Maybe you can.
Are you that dumb, really?
Seriously.
They think, you know, and the problem with the school security,
they want, you know, they think somehow they're going to keep the guns out of
these mental patients hands uh and and the truth of the matter is the schools have to really be
secured they need uh uh you know 40 billion dollars we sent to ukraine might have been better spent
uh making sure these schools are secured and locked down and maybe cameras buzzers whatever
it takes and maybe some armed personnel.
But the protecting of the schools is the important part.
They want to put the onus on the mental patient.
Now, hey, we made a new law.
Now, you nuts, you can't do this now.
You're not allowed to go into the school.
Well, would you rather your kid have his safety in the hands of the nut that's going to get the gun anyway?
There's 400 million of them in this country, 400 million guns.
Or real security for these schools like you would with the bank or any other place where your valuables are stored.
But they don't want to – because it doesn't matter.
It's not about the kid's safety.
It's not really about that.
It's about disarming the American people
so they can't do what Ukraine is doing to fucking Russia.
That's right.
That's exactly right.
They go, we don't have the money to put an armed officer at every school.
You know how many schools there are?
Yeah, but you just sent $40 billion to Ukraine.
What the fuck are you talking about?
And that's the answer, by the way.
You hardened the schools.
There's plenty of retired guys that could use a job.
And I like the people that go,
I don't want my kid's teacher to have a gun.
Okay, hold on.
So what you're saying is
somebody breaks in with a machine gun
into your kid's classroom,
you'd rather have nobody there armed.
Yeah.
That's all you do.
You ask direct questions like that, and they go,
ngah, ngah, ngah, ngah, ngah.
You know.
They can't come up with an answer.
They do.
And that is what they say.
I don't want the school to turn into some armed camp.
They always take it to the umpteenth level of hyperbole it's
always that you know if one person on campus has a concealed weapon it's you know an army of people
are in the school budding the kids in the bridge of the nose with the fucking rifle they they can't
they they're like children they they speak in terms like children. They exagger don't. I'm 78.
I'd be I always bring it up. Boy,
I'm glad I don't have kids today. And I go,
if I did, they'd be fucking 45. What am I thinking?
I'm 60. I act like
to be in first and second grade.
But I'd be
a little nervous with these teachers
today having guns if I had a kid
in the classroom because they might shoot him if he
misgenders somebody that's a they you hear that he wants to be called they ping pang that they ping pow
yeah they've they uh they surveyed i you know these polls i don't believe them anyway uh 75
percent of teachers said they wouldn't want to carry a gun in school.
Now, that just shows you how liberal the stupid teachers are.
And again, your point, wouldn't you rather.
I was watching a movie last night.
I do this all the time.
Whenever I'm watching a movie and there's a couple in a house and they hear something and you know shit's going to hit the fan.
I go, bet that guy wished he had a gun in the night table right now.
Movie would be over.
Goes out, he waits, boom, shoots the bad guy.
But there he is with a golf club or something.
You know, one of those scenes.
You want a gun.
You want a fucking gun.
Oh, my.
That's hilarious.
That is fucking.
You know when they're writing the script for the movie, they go, you know,
this could be settled with a gun eight minutes in.
We can't have that.
We have to make them living in, I don't know, they're living in Northern California in San
Leandro.
They don't believe in that shit.
We'll put a dildo next to the bed.
Yeah, smack him in the face a few times, like an old blackjack.
And the other thing about the mass shooting,
we're talking to the great Anthony Comey, of course,
and the other thing about the mass shootings is,
and I believe this,
the coverage, obviously, because the media is liberal,
they hate guns,
the coverage is just around the clock for whatever
because they love anything that's anti-gun.
And now we have a
generation, a couple generations of kids out
there. We're so media-driven
in this country. Everybody wants to be a star.
Even I'm doing a podcast.
What do you mean even? What the fuck does that even mean?
Everybody wants to be, you know,
these young kids just want to be famous. And if they
got to screw loose, you read
some of the shit they write before they go on it.
They want to go out as somebody because they're nobody.
And I don't want to hear bullying again every time there's a mass shooting.
One of them gets picked on.
I picked on a lot of people when I was in school.
I got picked on by a kid three grades above me.
But people have been bullied their whole lives, and there's been guns around.
So something else is in the mix there.
Yeah, I think you're absolutely right.
It's this craving for fame and materialism and shit like that and and years ago when you just had a circle of friends and people you knew from
school it was a pretty small bubble of people that you dealt with on a daily basis and maybe
there was one guy that was doing very well another guy you know but you were mostly just middle class
pieces of shit going in the woods to smoke some cigarettes and and drink uh some beers on the
weekends but uh they've got to the point now where they can see so many people
that have gotten so much money from TikTok and Instagram and YouTube
and all these platforms that they perform on,
whatever it is, lip syncing a fucking song for five seconds,
and they go, well, why don't I have that?
How come so many people are doing so well with this well why don't i have that why why how come so many people
are doing so well with this and i don't have it there is this envy and jealousy and resentment
and and then again like i said you couple that with well you're a piece of shit you're the source
of all the sorrow in this country how the fuck do not more kids not lose their fucking minds? I don't know.
The internet is pretty damn corrosive,
especially at that age.
Their minds, they're so impressionable
and they're still forming, you know,
and they don't know what they're doing.
And that is the one common thread.
These fucking, they're odd kids
that shoot up the, It is mental illness,
but we're a country of 350 million people.
What are you going to do?
Have neurological workups for everybody
every fucking couple of weeks?
You got to put guys in front of the school with guns.
That's going to stop a normal person,
a crazy motherfucker.
It's a deterrent.
It's that easy, you faggots put a fucking cannon in
front of the gym what's the matter with these they don't uh yeah they don't seem to understand
that they want to they want to trust that the nut job uh won't procure a gun because it's illegal
uh great strategy you got there i just got a few more minutes with the great Anthony Coop. Hey,
I want your thoughts on the death of Ray
Liotta. Boy, that fucking,
huh? That kind of hit home.
Yeah, you know,
you kind of
watch these guys in movies.
He was always one of the coolest guys.
Goodfellas, by the way, obviously
one of the greatest movies ever made,
even though that fucking Jadrul fucking De Niro is in it now.
I can't stand that son of a bitch.
He just said something else stupid yesterday, didn't he?
What the fuck was it about?
I don't even know.
Yeah, he was on, I think he was on Colbert.
He was on Colbert.
And he's just the worst talk show guest ever.
He sits there and Colbert's, you know, you got to kiss his ass because he's De Niro.
And he's like, oh, just, you know, what do you think?
You don't get very political, do you?
That's kind of a joke because he's been, you know, I'll punch him in the mouth.
And he goes, you don't get very political.
He goes, no, no, I don't.
Just pulling teeth.
You know,
Nick,
what it's like when you have a guest and you're pulling fucking teeth,
don't say anything.
Help me out.
Help me out.
I'm trying to do a podcast.
And he's always been like that.
You remember fucking,
I remember Rickles after they shot casino.
Rickles was talking about,
yeah,
you know,
being interviewed years later about working with Danielle. He said, dope. Rickles after they shot Casino. Rickles was talking about being interviewed years later about working with De Niro.
He said, dope.
Rickles was like, fucking dope.
He said about two words.
How you doing, bud?
Just what you just did.
They're stupid.
That's what makes them good actors, by the way, is they're devoid of any actual personality, ideology, anything. And a writer puts words in their head, and a director tells them where to stand and how to move and shit.
And when they don't have that, that's why they're great actors.
They're devoid of any humanity or anything.
You could not possibly carry on a conversation with these people.
That is the absolute truth.
You know, that's the trade-off you get when you get, oh, wow, I love De Niro in this and Taxi Driver and Mean Streets and Goodfellas.
And you're like, oh, that's what you got.
Huh.
Well, sometimes.
But Leota, yeah, I had the pleasure of having Ray Leta as a guest on the ONA show years ago.
I thought so.
And just fun to talk to.
Always willing to talk about good fellas and certain scenes that you were curious about what was going on behind the scenes on it and everything.
And, yeah, just one of those cool guys.
And, you know, he's down there in the Dominican Republic filming a movie.
I'm sure he got the best of medical care
while down there.
It's a shame.
His estate is suing a witch
doctor.
Fucking guy showed up and put leeches
on his chest for 20 minutes.
Turns out the witch doctor put on the wrong
mask for the ritual
he was supposed to do.
It happens down there.
What a horrible, you go out in the Dominican Republic.
So did Arturo Gatti.
Was he in the Dominican Republic?
He was somewhere.
Remember Arturo Gatti, the boxer?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Someone else recently died in the Dominican Republic, too.
Another guy that was an actor or something.
Or a sports figure.
Desi Arnaz.
Yeah, it's, I don't know.
Why the fuck are you going down there?
I didn't even get off the ship when
they stopped there on one of the cruises.
I was like, oh, Dominican Republic.
Yeah, I'll stay here in the casino on the boat.
Thank you.
Well, yeah.
What the fuck?
Why don't you just take a cab uptown
to 180th and Washington? You'll be in the Dominican Republic in five minutes. What's the matter Why don't you just take a cab uptown to 180th and Washington?
You'll be in the Dominican Republic in five minutes.
What's the matter with these people, Henry?
All right, Ann, I've kept you long enough. I can't wait till you get down here.
Oh, I know. I know.
You know who else is moving down to the Greenville area?
Tell me it's Alyssa Milano.
I just gave him my realtor's number.
It's Mr. Gavin McInnes.
He wants to get out of there and move down south.
Does the feds know that you, I, me, you, and him
will be in the same region?
Is that even allowed?
It's good.
They'll look at the playbook for fucking Waco or Ruby Ridge
on how to deal with the three of us, I guess.
Didn't Gavin McGinnis start Vice?
Yeah, yeah, he started Vice many years ago.
And it was kind of a liberal thing, like the true aspect of liberalism.
Against the government, against the powers that be.
I was going to say.
Funny, sarcastic, parody, things like that yeah and then it turns
into whatever the fuck it is now really i mean it's just the opposite i when i see shit what's
funny because i finally got my money vice came down here to interview me about brett butler
oh shit um why were they doing that oh they're doing a big thing on famous comedians or whatever.
So they come.
Brett Butler gave Vice my name, and they came down.
And I get all defensive right away.
I'm like, I know these motherfuckers are going to.
Yeah.
Even my manager, Tommy, is so smart.
He goes, listen, just stick to Brett Butler, because what they're going to ask you, they're going to ask you about Geraldo and Louie, and they're going to try to get three episodes out of you, which is so
smart.
Sure enough,
I brought up
Louis for a
second.
They're like,
can we talk?
I go, no,
you can't.
We can't.
My manager
was exactly
right.
They were
very nice to
me.
The only problem
was I just got
my money
yesterday.
I did it
over a month
ago.
This morning
it came in.
They pay
good?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It was
wasn't, yeah, fuck yeah. No, it was, it was,
yeah, fuck yeah.
Better than getting on a plane and doing Uncle Funny's
and fucking skid marks
in North Dakota.
Yeah,
so that's that.
Well, Ant,
I can't thank you enough, buddy,
for coming through.
Love it, Nick.
Love coming on
and venting
with the great Nick DiPaolo.
We've got to do it more often.
I have nobody else
to talk to down here.
You'd think I'd be surrounded
by rednecks, but Savannah's kind of
liberal. There's colleges here and all kinds of crap.
Yeah, yeah. As soon as I can get
a fucking microwave oven and some
interior doors, I'll
be down there.
All right, brother. Good talking
to you, and let's do it again.
Absolutely, Nick. Be well. Have a good weekend. You too, brother. Good talking to you. And let's do it again. Absolutely, Nick.
Be well.
Have a good weekend.
You too, buddy.
Take care.
The great Anthony Comey, ladies and gentlemen.
Great way to wrap up the day. guitar solo Outro Music
