Anthony Cumia joins Curtis Sliwa and James Flippin to reflect on his rise to the top of New York City broadcasting with the iconic Opie & Anthony Show. They talk about the battles of morning radio, the fine line between ratings and cancellation, and the hard lessons of corporate control in media. Cumia draws parallels to the Jimmy Kimmel controversy, explains why free speech is not the same as company policy, and recalls the highs and lows of being exiled from the airwaves only to find vindication years later on WABC. The conversation also covers the decline of late-night TV, the role of animals in bringing people together across politics, and the importance of empathy in public life.
