About this listen

The uncensored and long-awaited life story of radio’s most notorious shock jock, Anthony Cumia.

Today, Anthony Cumia is the co-host of the wildly popular “Anthony Cumia Show,” which live-streams to a huge following of paid subscribers; however, Anthony is most well-known from the legendary, nationally syndicated “Opie and Anthony Show.” Permanently Suspended is an all-access pass to the controversial mayhem that ensued on-and-off the air.

A must-listen for all diehard O&A fans, Permanently Suspended finally answers the questions that everyone has been waiting for: What really happened between Opie and Anthony? What was the reasoning behind the multiple firings? What prompted the tweeting about the Times Square NYC incident? What is the true account of the controversial allegations? What are the never-before-revealed details of Anthony’s stint in rehab? What does the future hold for his livestream podcast? These questions, and many more, will be answered.

Permanently Suspended is a humorous, no-holds-barred account of the legendary career and life of Anthony Cumia - a blue collar guy who made his dreams come true, rising above all obstacles to become one of the most well-known and successful personalities in radio history.

I never was a fan of O&A as I grew up listening to Howard Stern. Also living in Chicago we didn't get O&A on the radio, as far as I know. I had heard about them from Howard and in the news and had always figured they were a ripoff of Stern and Dahl and other innovators of radio. What I learned from this book is they had their own thing and they really were focused on developing their own audience and style.

If you have never heard O&A or only heard their clips online, I would strongly recommend this book. The stories are really funny and interesting and give you a good perspective of the radio world from terrestrial to satellite to podcasts and beyond. I think Anthony is an interesting person and tells an interesting story. I was laughing at parts and some of the stories made me think. I would highly recommend this book to anyone that likes talk radio and/or comedy.

Never a fan of Opie & Anthony

Loved it! I was waiting for the audiobook version because Anthony is a radio pro and I wasn't disappointed. Anthony is so natural at talking that he makes a fantastic audio version. The book has hilarious previously untold stories and different retellings of some of the classics that any new fans need to hear. This made the time fly by and I'd recommend it to anyone at all interested in comedy.

Having the man himself, Anthony Cumia, read his book to me was a treat. I’ve known most of Ant’s exploits from listening to the O&A Show but hearing him tell it and adding some inside baseball made this a great listen for me. If you’re an O&A fan you’ll love this.

Antony reading it and adding sone improv makes it better than the paperback. loved it!

really funny and interesting if you were a fan of O&A

This is a good little bio from Ant, but if you’ve followed O&A for a while, youve heard it all before. I thought he’d might dive a little deeper than on the show, but he’s retelling most of the same stories.
Id still recomend it if youre a fan.

Good stuff, but..
