Anthony Cumia returns after being out for 2 months. He discusses his heart procedure, his ongoing recovery, his life adjustments, and more. FULL EPISODE: www.compoundmedia.com/shows/a...
I saw. Then I made an egg salad sandwich, read an article in Cat Fancy magazine, and raked some leaves that blew over from the big oak tree across the street. Then I clicked.
Anthony was burning the candle like crazy. He was doing live streams of Call of Duty until 5am while being absolutely piss drunk. His drinking and eating was out of control. I’m glad he’s back and he looks great.
@@adeadlyfart13 Mostly on his personal CZcams channel, @opantxm. I think the frequency ramped up because he hadn't fully moved into his new place yet and was staying in the city alone, to do the show.
As a 33 year old Italian myself with a family history of fatty meats, heart issues and addiction I’ve decided to try and cut back on the beer, pizza and sausage&peppers. My dad was gone at 54 and my grandfather on my moms side at a similar age. Terrifying to think I could possibly be past the halfway point.
@@McHenryCruiser By the sound of what he was going through when he decided to go into the hospital, it seems like he could have been at the start of a potentially fatal heart attack.
@@McHenryCruiser I love that you feel compelled to write about shit you clearly know nothing about. If someone is experiencing the initial symptoms of a heart attack and goes into a hospital, they can immediately give you thrombolytics and antiplatelet drugs to dissolve the blood clots before they cause a full cardiac arrest. Of course they can stop it. After you're stabilized they will perform an angioplasty, put in stents or perform bypass surgery like they did with Cumia.
He really is such a good dude. I take it personally when Opie or burr or whoever buys into that racism bs and tried to hurt this guy. He's like family. One of the most talented comedians I've ever heard
So good to see Ant back. Sitting here with a wine enjoying this. My mother had a quad bypass about 20 years ago. 88 and still very active for her age and not slowing down after 9 kids. All the best Ant.
Thank God, indeed --|---- ! The reality is he is still far from a full recovery (hence the defibrillator vest). It'll take a full year, and many people never "fully" recover-- but they live! Since you are a man of faith, I suggest you pray for Anthony.
I was stabbed in the heart almost two years ago and had to undergo emergency surgery similar to Anthony's... Sternum was cut open, so I know exactly what he means. When you feel a cough or a sneeze coming on, it's literally horrifying. For about a month, while healing, I would wake up in the middle of the night and with every breath I took, it felt like someone was punching me as hard as they could in the ribs. It would last anywhere from half an hour to two hours. Everything he describes I went through as well, the tubes, the metal holding your sternum together, etc. I know exactly how it feels... Much compassion, and wishing Anthony a quick recovery
Ant, if you read this before kicking the bucket for good : I'm French and learned english listening to O&A on CZcams. I laughed so much thanks to you and lil Yimmy. Much respect Sir, you're the best.
I’m so happy to see Ant back and while I imagine he wouldn’t come out and say so, Gavin looked so happy to be there again with Ant laughing together. Great video.
So glad to see you doing well. Your older show o and a literally saved me. While going thru a decade of PTSD, listening to the old shows kept me going. I thanked you in a live stream months back but I wish to say it again. Wish you the best health moving forward
Welcome back ant. I had a valve replacement in 2019 at 31 years old. I have the huge scar down the front of my chest. It is a long recovery but u can do it. My best advice is dont bend and pick up anything remotely heavy. U want those ribs to heal COMPLETELY. Mine took over a year year and a half to full recover and i was in pain when i slept on my side. This was feb 2019 and i finally feel almost 100% now. My kidneys also shut down in the process which put me on dialysis. Thank god my kidneys kind of cane back after about 8 months. Although not fully their at 36% function now. Good to have u back man!
Welcome back Ant! Watching sober Ant is like watching our drunk uncle who had a medical issue and can no longer drink and you hear about all their stories.
I'm glad your doing well , Anthony. I arrived late to the party but since I came across your channel , I can't get enough. I binge on all your old stuff and find it hilarious. Anyways , wish you the best.
Anthony, you look fabulous coming off a quad-bypass that most of us wouldn't have survived. Your spirit keeps you alive and we're here for it ... Welcome Back!
Good to see you!! I had a triple bypass 5 months ago. Yes. When they pulled the three drainage tubes out it felt like live snakes being pulled out of me! Heal well and take care.
My father had a quad bypass age 38 back in 1978 when the procedure was new and way more primitive and draconian than today. The bypasses clogged and he needed repeat bypass 15 years later. No worries, he lived to 83.
Glad you're ok buddy. I feel like I'm having a heart attack watching this. I'm thinking about all the partying I've done over the years, all the nasty food, and just not taking care of myself. Scary shit man.
Antonio Cumiolini I love you baby. Your homecoming just made my day. The world now feels a lil brighter and whiter. And lord knows we can use every lil bit especially nowadays
This was a great surprise to wake up and see a new upload from you; very happy to hear your recovery is going well. Continue to take care of yourself. I wonder if the one nurse with the man bun is a top Patreon?
A reminder to appreciate the LEGENDS of entertainment and media while we still have them. From Norm MacDonald to Rush Limbaugh, anytime we lose these prolific men, it is a massive blow to our culture. Especially the ones who aren't total left-wing idiots.
I prayed for Ant because he has dedicated his life to finding the funniest thing ever done and has never backed down. Forever the renegade of honest reaction with a quadruple bypass heart of gold.
here's the thing, my Dads just hit 72 and still smokes actual cigarettes and can still drink me under the table, he's the worst cannery ever. Well done for making the change, I too need to face the music soon @@billybatts9491
Clicked as soon as I saw. We all missed you, buddy. Take it easy.

I actually watched Mondays (morning) edition I didn't recognize the ChuckleHeads taking over for Wednesday This Wekk- I found out from Twitter!
@@gregp103as long as it led you here.
Anthony looks so "clear" and healthy. I'm glad he's doing better. Good things do happen to bad people!

Come on. What makes Anthony such a bad guy? He just has some… minor… flaws.
Lol... Very true.

I thot this was AMERICA 🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸💮🇺🇸
Shit I was watching those CoD livestreams and they were great lol, but at times it seemed like a brain aneurysm might happen at any time.
Wait Anthony plays CoD and streams it???
@@adeadlyfart13 over the summer he was streaming like a lunatic yes.

You’ve been very missed Anthony!! Thank you for not dying
Agreed. Thanks for not dying, Anthony.
guess god didn’t need a racist shock jock 😂
@@Killthebatman87Ant isn't racist. He's got a colored television.
@@toh6261that's actually fucking hilarious 😂
He’ll be back to being a drunk in 2 weeks. I’d say he has 5 years left at best
I've never been so happy to see this guy back. What a long 2 months. We missed ya Ant.
You've been missed Anthony . Warm welcomes back sir.
I missed him,glad he's ok and back. And as for this dude with the shitty music. Go funk yourself

I had a quadruple bypass in 2016. It took me about 3 months to recover. I’m glad Anthony is back and I hope he continues to stick to the program
I've been listening to you for about 20 years and I'm so glad you're ok man. I'm cutting back on the 15 beers a day myself. Thanks for the tip.

Terrifying to think I could possibly be past the halfway point.
Once I began working from home I began the same problem
I'm in the same boat, gotta start cutting back, 43 now and starting to feel it
Lady Di? Are you back?

The absolute best out there!
I PRAY to only be in as much "pain" as Mr. Cumia is in. 😁
@@billhillard he's doing just fine now.!!!!
@@roryhennessey1983 And thank god for it.
Anthony is a rare species who looks much better in his mid-60s after a heart attack and then he did in his mid-thirties
He didn’t have a heart attack
he looked like shit back in the day. aside from his huge head of hair. that was doing a lot of heavy lifting back then.

Holy shit! Your mom is a badass!
Welcome back Anthony! Glad you’re ok.
Thankful Anthony is still with us. You can tell this has taken a lot out of him. The man has been through a lot!
The amount of joy this man has given to the world. So happy you’re ok AC
Long live Antnee. He look's healthy, night and day difference.
Thank God you’re ok bro. Glad you made a full recovery and are back. You’re a national treasure!

He’s vertical. It’s a full recovery in my book.

Opie posted. He’s glad you’re OK and everything’s fine…..I kid hope you make a full recovery. Glad you’re back Anthony.
So good to hear your voice again, Ant! Glad to hear you're doing ok 🤗
Welcome back Anthony. Lots of love here from Norway.

We missed you man.
Where? Libya??
He’s a treasure like gold you find in a cave
Great to have you back. "If you want to see what they did to me, watch the dinner scene from Aliens" - Positive proof we need Anthony.
Thank goodness you’re back. I’ve never met Anthony, but he seems like a friend!
Anthony is so detailed in his descriptions. It's awesome.

Go back about 6-7 months and look at Anthony compared to this video. He looked bloated and as run down as he says. It's a remarkable change.

Nice to see a water bottle on the desk instead of a beer. Keep it up, Ant. Cheers from England.
Welcome Back Ant. Im glad you caught it in time an your still with us.
Love you Ant & I'm so happy you are OK

Prayer doesn't work heeerrrreee!You lived?! Love ya Ant, glad you made it man

For a guy who never graduated high school, Anthony is really a smart, self-taught dude. He's really great at explaining stuff.
Welcome back! Happy to hear you are healthy. Please keep up the good work we’ve missed you.
glad youre doing well, still listen to o&a everyday, the amount of entertainment you give is lifelong
Glad you're back Ant'ny!
Anthony, you look fabulous coming off a quad-bypass that most of us wouldn't have survived. Your spirit keeps you alive and we're here for it ... Welcome Back!
So glad your surgery was successful! Happy to have you back. I've been a fan since the early O&A days. Best of luck with your continuing recovery!
He looks great. Can totally see the difference
My grandpa had quad bypass at 83 and once he recovered he was back to his younger self it was such a difference hope you feel the same
Seriously? I thought at that age that surgery could kill him and best to just let him live out the rest of his life.
My dad did it at 63 too. Such a difference in energy and general life spark. Like going back 25-30 years.
Fk yeah man. We need you around Ant.
Glad you doing better brother. Glad you are back on the air! Take care my friend.
Good to see you!! I had a triple bypass 5 months ago. Yes. When they pulled the three drainage tubes out it felt like live snakes being pulled out of me! Heal well and take care.
So glad to see you again, brother-man! ;) Wish you all the best! Greetings from Germany
Is there no longer regular shows? I haven't heard anything, hope Ant is good!
"Antny"....my favorite "Eye-Talian" (as we say in the South) on earth. Happy you're healthy, and happy to have you back!
SO glad to see you man!!!!! It hasn't been the same without watching you and I'm very happy to see you back.
Good to see you back again Anthony. regards, mark from England

Glad to see you're doing better Ant!!!
Welcome back Ant!! Glad to see you on the mend! Best wishes and a quick recovery!!
Great to see Anthony back and looking healthy. We need him around for many more years
My old man went thru the surgery and he said they "crack you open like a book"
Welcome back brother.
"GAAH ROE! The damn kid has a heart issue and he's crying about it!!" "JOEY he has a sensitive heart!" *Throws spaghetti against the wall*
Glad you are back Anthony! You look great. Now we get to continue to enjoy the show.
Glad you're on the mend, Anthony. I hope your recovery goes well.
Glad to see you back! My cousin had heart surgery at 23, and even for a young guy, its very taxing and hard to recover.
You look k like to old you again. Love this dude. Been listening for 20 years. Congratulations and great to see youu back
Good to have you back Ant! ❤
Been waiting patiently for this. Happy ant is okay.
Very very glad you are back and well. You are a comic genius. Love it that Gavin is such a good friend to step in while you recover.
This is the 6th time in the last year I've had to subscribe to compound media. CZcams is fucking with you Ant!
