Tony Mazur is a long-time radio personality who is braving the fresh frontier of podcasts. He is also an stand-up comedian and actor, currently using his day job to supplement his passion in podcasting. He began his podcast in 2021 as a something-for-everyone show with a plethora of guests, but in recent years, it has evolved into more of a solo show where he comments on politics and pop culture, with the occasional guest sprinkled in. Tony doesn’t really hold back his opinions, much to the chagrin of his wife and his employer.

    An Exiled Host Returns to Terrestrial Radio

    No, not Check Your Brain's Tony Mazur, though he is certainly not on the lookout for a radio gig. But Anthony Cumia of Opie & Anthony fame has returned to regular radio at WABC and then some, as the rapid and rabid response for him garnered a syndication deal. Tony talks about why this is win-win for Cumia, as well as the state of radio in general, which usually shies away from "controversial hosts." Could this be a new beginning of former personalities returning to the airwaves?   But before all of that, Tony answered some questions the listeners sent him for another AMA round.   Be sure to subscribe to Tony's Patreon. $3 gets you just audio, $5 gets video AND audio, and $10 has all of the above, as well as bonus podcasts per week.

    Tony on Z-Man's Public Access Show

    Recently, Check Your Brain's Tony Mazur was a guest on his pal Chad Zumock's Public Access Show, where they watch old commercials, talk all things retro, and harken back to both of their radio days. They both did the latter in discussing Anthony Cumia's return to terrestrial radio and his subsequent syndication deal.   Admittedly, this is more of a video show without a set timeslot, so follow Chad on X (@ChadZumock) to see when the next Public Access Show is ready for streaming.   Be sure to subscribe to Tony's Patreon. $3 gets you just audio, $5 gets video AND audio, and $10 has all of the above, as well as bonus podcasts per week.

    Five Years to Flatten the Curve

    The week of March 8th, 2020 began with a recommendation to wash your hands and don't touch your face, and it ended with "oh my God, the world is ending." That, of course, was a hysterical reaction, but that reaction continued on for well over two years. In his annual recap of the 2020 insanity, Check Your Brain's Tony Mazur lays out everything from the mandates like wearing masks in swimming pools and filling skateparks with sand to getting tattoos of your vaccine card. He then takes the listener/viewer to today, where there is some accountability directed towards the corrupt bureaucrats and actors who pushed this, though not enough have met the Damocles of justice.   Be sure to subscribe to Tony's Patreon. $3 gets you just audio, $5 gets video AND audio, and $10 has all of the above, as well as bonus podcasts per week.

    In Defense of Michale Graves

    Super Bowl Recap & The Business of Sports with Rick Morris & Ken Mosca

    Is this it for the Kansas City Chiefs? Will the Bills or Ravens finally break through next season, or will the Texans, Chargers, Redskins, or another dark horse team come out of nowhere? Tony Mazur had two of his favorite people in Rick Morris and Ken Mosca not only recap the Super Bowl and NFL season, but the business of sports as a whole. Is baseball becoming a glorified niche sport? Will the NFL continue to dominate? Are NBA fans a very vocal minority? And what about the future of sports venues?   Rick Morris is the proprietor of FantasyDraftHelp.com, and he also has a podcast available on the major platforms.   Ken Mosca is the co-founder of Faces 4 Autism, a group to support children and adults with autism, along with their families. For more information, visit Faces4Autism.org.   Be sure to subscribe to Tony's Patreon. $3 gets you just audio, $5 gets video AND audio, and $10 has all of the above, as well as bonus podcasts per week.
