I call him Uncle Howard since it feels like he is a part of the family. I am a 24 year old female and I still live at home with my dad and brother. We have Howard TV and I have Sirius in my car. I love him!! The one drawback of being a fan is I worry about Artie all the time.

I feel the same way... part of the family. I'm so upset because, with my cable company, I can't get Howard TV :( But I listen to Howard 100 and 101 practically all day :)

I seriously get upset when I think that he might not re-sign! What will we do?!

WAAAAH!!

Huge fan out here in Oklahoma. We never got him out here so I had to download the show illegally for years until he moved to Sirius. Daily listener, my radio is on 100 + 101 pretty much all day.

WAAAAH!!

I think he will re-sign but will probably switch to afternoons and have an even lighter schedule. I think he will have either more vacation days or work tuesday-thursday. I think he has hinted at this several times. I also think that he will re-sign because he is very concerned about some of the staffers like J.D. finding a new job.

Hey Nowwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! Female Stern fan since the late '80s!:thumbsup2 And PROUD to admit it!

Got my Sirius boombox before Howard's first broadcast.
.......... Hmmmm- problem. We were going to be in Mexico for his very first day on satellite:eek:- so we packed our boombox and brought it along! OK- So I had to hang the antenna off the balcony of the hotel- but I got to hear Howard on his first day!:thumbsup2

And, I do not find their "bits" very entertaining. I find the everyday banter more hilarious than things they take time to put together. I can just PMSL at the news or something corny that Howard happens to say:rotfl2:

Do you know what I do? I get up after 6am- so at 9am (EST) I turn on the West Coast feed on 101 so not to miss a second!!:woohoo:

OMG- I know people say this all the time about Howard- but he is such a wuss in his music taste!!! He is talking about Lady Gaga, Kelly Clarkson- :rotfl2: poor guy.

I can't stand Ronnie too. He really needs to be taken down a few pegs.

The one thing that annoys me about ralph is how he would call in with his two cents about a bit or staff argument that took place hours ago or he wants to get caught up on something because he missed the first half of the show. It totally breaks up the flow of the show. I don't think it happens so much anymore.

Oh my god, I love The Roll Call. It is SO CHEESY which makes it so funny to hear them begrudgingly doing it :)

Too bad Artie wasn't there today to join in... Sick, depressed, on heroin, drinking....I can't even venture a guess anymore. :confused3

Geez- I am a total outcast on the Dis! I am a chica- I am a death/black/hardcore metal fan- AND love Howard Stern! But people that know me here know that I am a sweetie!:angel: ......OK, so, most of the time I am:rolleyes1 :laughing:

I love the way people turn their noses up at Howard like he is the scum of the earth, degrading women (I can't stand the pigs that are on his show BTW- they are degrading themselves) and all that BS. Ummm- hello- who is it that we see in the news lately for cheating on his wife, possibly driving drunk etc etc- yes America's "role model", Tiger Woods. :rolleyes1 That is the way it goes. Forgive and forget!

Howard is a pu$$y cat and if you don't watch or listen regularly, you should not have an opinion;)

...........just MHO!:cutie:

Another 20 year plus Stern fan here. My old boss used to laugh at me, because every time we moved to a different area of our office, I would have to pick my seat by where I could get Howard. I live 60 miles from Philly, so it would be a challenge to find just the right spot.
Now that I telecommute, I have my satellite radio and LOVE IT :love:
Even my husband can't figure out why I listen, but I do. I pee my pants everytime Howard plays the tapes of his father saying "Don't be stupid, you moron"
Stern Rules!

Artie is really starting to annoy me. I used to feel sorry for him but not anymore. He has all the resources in the world to get help with whatever problem he has and he refuses too.

All my love and sympathy is now going to JD :hug:. Poor guy he is really struggling right now.

Artie cancelled all of his 2010 tour dates. Hopefully it helps. I cannot imagine dealing with an addiction like that. It must be scary to know something has such a strong hold on you. But- like you said- a lot of people are getting tired of it.

And wasn't JD on Lexapro?? What the heck is wrong!?

I believe it is Jason Kaplan who is on Lexapro and he says it has changed his life. JD is going to a doctor today. I hope he can get some help; maybe then he could get himself a nice girl friend :love:

ahhhh! Thanks.

JD did say today he is on 1/2 Zoloft. That stuff can make you feel nuts just taking it. Maybe he is having a side effect of the drug?

What was that therapist talking about JD having PTSD? Did I miss what happened to him. He is an odd kid:laughing:

I wholeheartedly agree! While the show can be immature sometimes, it can also contain some of the best debates, conversations about politics, religion, pop culture, etc... Plus, as we all know, Howard is the best interviewer EVER! And no one can know that until they listen to a whole show.

I think part of the misconception comes from the "E show". Since they had to condense the 4 hour show to 20 minutes for tv, all they showed was the more salacious parts of the show and so I think that image has stuck.

Oh well, I try to tell people this and they don't believe me. No matter what they think its all about fart jokes, hookers and lesbians. Although that stuff is fun to listen too as well! :lmao:

Apparently, JD was punched and mugged on the subway once. But I think that was several years ago. I don't know if there is such a thing as delayed PTSD?! I think he just has social anxiety disorder. He is an odd kid; that why I love him!!

The wrap up show is quite good. I'm actually impressed by the job Gary and Jon Hein do with the show. They are able to delve into some subjects that Howard quickly gets tired of during the actual show. In fact, think of how many times Howard starts off the show going into stuff that was on the wrap up show. I think half of those times though it is something crazy that Sal has said.

I agree. The wrap-up show serves a great purpose that I have only recently been able to fully appreciate. You get to hear a lot out of Benji (sp?), JD, and Fa Fa Flo-hi that you normally would never hear because of Howard's impatience during the show. And John Hein is really a great host.

Oh yeah, and when Sal comes in, he goes into some sort of tangent that is priceless fodder for the show the next morning :) I love listening to wrap up and then hearing Howard comment on it the next day...

Anyway, I also listen to Bubba the Love Sponge on the channels (I live in Tampa so I listen to him on terrestrial a lot anyway), and Superfan Roundtable and Chuck Zito. I've been meaning to tune in to the geek show but havent yet (guess its cancelled now huh? Poor Ralph... tee hee)

I love Hank too. I live in Seattle and we didn't get Howard on the radio here until around the year 2000 but I love when they replay Hank bits. I will never forget the fight between Hank and Beetlejuice.

My other favorite Wack Packers are Crackhead Bob because he really seemed like a genuine person who loved the show. I also love Crazy Alice because like me she is a Fred fan.

I can't stand High Pitch Eric and Eric the Midget. They both use the show and have no appreciation for Howard.

One thing I am hoping some Howard fans would help me with. I heard bits and pieces about something going on years ago a the Rainbow Room with Fred and maybe his wife. I know it was brought up on the air and Fred almost quit over it and I think they mentioned they were worried that he almost dropped out of filming Private Parts. Does anyone know what went down? I have alway been curious about this.

UGH! I looooooathe Eric the Midget!!! When are they going to hook him up to those damn balloons???! I hope he floats away never to be found again.

There was a fight between Fred and his wife at the RR and Howard talked about it on the air- Fred was PO'd and quit. I cannot remember what the fight was about. I am sure someone here can elaborate ;)

No matter what they think its all about fart jokes, hookers and lesbians. Although that stuff is fun to listen too as well!

aaaaand speaking of that- who shows up yesterday? Will the Farter (I even hate that word WTH is wrong with me?) It hurts to type it:rotfl2: of course, I had to turn down the volume:rolleyes:

I can honestly say- I do not like any of the wack packers, never have over the years- except for Daniel Carver, the dude is so clueless! I DO love when Richard makes phoney phone calls as an old woman- I PMSL when I hear that!:lmao:

If I'm not mistaken he was having dinner with Jackie and his wife Nancy. The fight was not brought up by Jackie but some fan that saw the fight in the restaurant and called up during the next show. It was around the time of his wife being in "Tony and Tina's Wedding" though Fred never said what actually caused the fight.

I have no clue! It seems that Howard knows what's going on but doesn't want to say what he knows for some reason. I assumed Artie was out Thursday because of the two day traffic school class he has to go to for his DUI. But I definitely thought he would be in today?! I don't know; I hope he's ok...

hopefully he went to rehab to detox

I doubt it. He has an stand up apperance still scheduled at a comedy club in New York on December 17th. The rest of his stand up dates have been cancelled.

It is hard for me to feel bad for Artie because on one hand he has a disease. One the other hand he is very lucky to have an amazing job and he can afford to access help and Howard has told him time and time again that he could leave the show to get some help and come back.

I think even Howard is starting to get feed up with Artie's antics. Whenever someone calls to vent about Artie he pretty much shuts them right down.

I love Artie. I mean, his problems are tragic and I fear for his life if he doesn't clean up, but I think he seems like a great guy deep down. I hate to say it, but I have actually gotten very tired of Howard himself (and I have listened to the show since 1991) for many different reasons - one of them being that I just don't think he has a good sense of which things he should stick with on air for a while, and which things he should end quickly because they are not funny anymore - and my favorite 'things' about the show now are the supporting players - Robin, Artie, Gary, Fred, etc. I wish there was more of them and less of Howard sometimes! And I love George Takei when he is there - especially when he is bantering with Artie. I think Artie gave the show a shot in the behind that it sorely needed, an infusion of manic energy, and I definitely 'feel' it when he is not there. He was very naturally witty and quick, and I think he added an important dimension to the show.

So is the show back on live tomorrow (1/4/10)?

Troubled comic Artie Lange landed in the hospital after stabbing himself nine times in an apparent suicide attempt, sources told The Post. Lange's frantic mom called 911 Saturday morning after she entered his Hoboken apartment and found the bloodied funnyman, a law-enforcement source said. Lange sustained six "hesitation wounds" and three deep plunges. A source close to Lange's management team confirmed that the Howard Stern sidekick stabbed himself, adding that his mother had come to visit him that day to drop off food. Surgeons managed to save Lange despite heavy bleeding. "We all have our demons," Stern said on-air this week, referring to Lange's past battles with addiction. "Artie has given this show tremendous moments of great comedy. He's a tremendous contributor. He is a good man. Don't forget how great he is."

I'm more of an O&A fan than a Howard fan, but I still listen to Howard now and again, and have always liked his crew/staff. I always thought that Artie just needed to hit rock-bottom before he could actually get help, but was never allowed to bottom as his friends and co-workers may have been covering for him and enabling. Now I'm not so sure ... It sounds like he may just continue until he succeeds in self destructing or finally ending his own life. I really hope this is his bottom, but I don't how much councelling can help when someone is that far gone. :sad1:

maddhatir
01-07-2010, 08:29 AM
Hey Brock! Thanks for the info- the stabbing is more believable than the bleach. You knew the story would not be able to stay underwraps for very long.

I have a feeling Artie will not be back for a long time, or maybe not at all, if it was that bad :guilty:

I have to say I think they should put Benjy out there more. He is a PITA some times, but when he does those interviews and starts screaming I PMSL!:rotfl2: Does anyone remember the one with Donald Trump? The Donald looked scared for his life:lmao:

I don't think Artie will return to the show in any real capacity at all. I am sure eventually he will call in with some watered-down version of events and tell the tale in a comedic way, but, sadly, I think his presence from the show has ended. Not only is that bad for the show - as I said in my earlier post, I think Artie was the best thing to happen to the Howard Stern show in the last ten years, and he kept me tuning in at times when Howard himself was just boring - but it will be also be bad for Artie, because I think he really needs to embrace some sort of stability and continuity, and surround himself with the love of his co-workers and friends. Yesterday, I was wondering what Dr. Drew must be thinking because I think he genuinely likes Artie and is concerned for his well-being. He could probably see this coming from a mile away.

Why does it not surprise me that Robin (who has a tender and caring heart) is the one who stepped up to contact Artie and see how he is doing, while Howard has not made any contact with him? I know Artie is not Howard's responsibility nor problem to deal with, but often times I have felt like Artie really wanted Howard to 'care' more (he really looks up to Howard), and Howard seemed to be avoiding dealing with that. Like it or not, I think Howard needs to accept the fact that he is an integral part of Artie's life, and he should be on the phone or at his bedside offering support! Come on, Howard, step up! This is serious business! I would bet that George Takei and Brad have already contacted Artie.

I tell you, I still listen to the Howard Stern show because I have been listening since 1991 and I feel like they are my family or my friends, in a way, having gotten me through some tough times in my life. But I find that I am getting increasingly annoyed with Howard himself (what Beth must have to put up with at home! Yikes!) and much prefer everyone else on the show!

I wonder if Dr Drew will paying a visit to Artie while in town?? It would be a good idea. I am sure he can help Artie and his family with some good advice as to where might be the best place for him to go to get the right help.

Robin is usually the one who steps up. Remember when Tom (Chiusano) had cancer. I believe Robin kept in touch with him during that time. Howard- IMO feels uncomfortable in these situations. He is always worried about what to say and what to do. He is good on the air about some things, but in his personal life- it seems like he has issues communicating with people and he just steps back and does nothing. I think his way of reaching out to the person is in an e-mail. :rolleyes:

Wasn't there a time when Artie called Howard "Bro" and Howard kind of got freaked out and made Artie feel like an ***hole?

ITA- I am not sure if believe him when he says he is therapy a few days a week. But it does feel like you are just hanging out with friends when you turn on his show.

I Hope Artie comes back to the show- he is so funny:sad1:

This might make Howard happy- DH just told me that Hanes dropped Charlie Sheen:lmao::rotfl2: Maybe they can replace Charlie with Howard- just let's pray he does not have to put on the underwear:scared1::eek::laughing: Let's keep that mess hidden!

No, it was the other way around- Howard called Artie his bro, and Artie was really hostile, saying he's not his bro, and kind of mocking Howard for saying he cared. It turned into a huge fight, but it was all on Artie.

Personally, I am so sick of Artie and his predictable self-destruction and constant lying. I don't even think he is that funny anymore. I don't wish anyone ill and hope he recovers, but at this point he is just a typical addict showing typical self-centered addict behavior. I hope he does not return to the show. I agree with a PPer- more Benji and sctick coma, please!!!

Okay, first of all, if I hear Howard snort one more time when he forcing out a fake laugh, I will throw the radio out the window!!:rotfl2::rotfl2: (The problem is, once you hear the snort, it is hard to make yourself 'unhear' it!)

I said it earlier in this thread; I will say it again. I have listened to this show since 1991, and I feel like it is a part of my life in that it has 'been there for me' during some tough times and brought me laughter and joy. It was a constant for me. Not that I don't still need the occasional laughter and joy, but....I honestly find myself laughing less and less these days. I listen out of habit now, just because I feel like I can't abandon 'old friends,' but a lot of what Howard seems to think is funny, is not funny to me anymore. I am not sure if I am outgrowing Howard himself or his show. I can say that the last two times he was up for contract renegotiations or about to move to Sirius, I was panicked at the thought of Howard leaving the airwaves. When he got to Sirius, I was annoyed that he seemed to be taking sooooo much vacation and only doing 4 shows a week. Now, however, if it turns out that he and Sirius cannot come to a good agreement for a renewal, I think I will survive! I think I am getting to the point where I am ready to 'let go' if Howard decides to move on. If he sticks around (which I think he will), then I will stick around too, out of habit, but if he leaves, I will get by.

I love Robin, Artie, Fred, Gary and Ralph, and I love hearing about their lives. If Benji would be more forthcoming about his Craig's List antics, I would like him better too. I like when Howard talks about his home life with Beth and the various things he does on vacation. I like when Dr. Drew or Keith Ablow comes in and start telling Howard or Robin or Artie how screwed up they really are! I like when he does 'celebrity' interviews or interviews with notable people. I love it when bands come in and play and dish the dirt. I love when Howard talks about the current moviies or TV shows he likes, but hate it when he goes on about the Three Stooges or the Munsters! These are the areas where the show excels for me.

Otherwise, I don't like Gilbert that much. I will not be able to tolerate the show if Gilbert fills the Artie chair. I don't find Medicated Pete funny at all. I get tired of the endless JD stuff. All the 'bits' and the dragging out the stuff Howard thinks is funny that is not funny to me just kill me! I am tired of the endless Jay Leno-bashing and the Conan-Jay stuff. It just bores me. I hate all the 'inside the world of radio' talk when he gets on a roll with that. Boring. I even get tired of the impressions Howard does of his mom and dad, and would rather just hear his actual mom and dad! The Ted Kennedy bits makes me want to cringe in horror and switch the dial immediately. I am tired of the emails read on the show about how something was 'so funny' that the author of the email nearly drove his or her car off the road or spit out coffee, etc.! Yawn. Tired of Eric the Midget, Jeff the Drunk, High Pitch, etc. And I never listen to the History of Howard Stern when it plays.

It is so strange but I used to hate Gilbert until I heard him on the Stern show. Now I love him. He cracks me. I still can't believe he has kids.

I wonder if Howard will do Shatner's show? Now that dude is hilarious!:lmao: but, I do not like George Takei.:sad2:

I do like when Howard does his mom's voice AND always LMAO when he does Ted Kennedy- and let's not forget his wife Joan:lmao: As soon as you hear that megaphone "click" you know it is coming :lmao: He has been doing them since the 80's hasn't he? Didn't he do the Pee Pee dance as Ted on channel 9??? As you can see from my PP, my memory is shot:rolleyes1

ITA with Sherry- enough with Eric the Midget- I never liked him, but one day he just became SO ungrateful and rude. He was never like that.

I know I said this before but Richard Christy makes my day! His phony phone calls are the %$#@! OMG when Richard and Sal do the "My husband stole my Scooter" call I PMSL!!! When Richard talks like the wife and cusses about "her" scooter- I DIE!!

I can listen to Richard's calls over and over and I will laugh like it is the first time hearing them:rotfl2:......."Ethel, Ethel Mertz...............":lmao::rotfl2::rotfl: :worship:

I'm a huge Gilbert fan. I have most of his appearances since 94 on computer, always over the top. I've also seen him twice live and you have to really like off the wall comedy. I could tell a number of people in the audience had this look of "what is this" on their face.

Some of the greatest Gilbert moments for me have been the arguments with Amy Heckerling's Nanny and the discussions of Kelsy Grammer's wife's irritable bowel syndrome, complete with the Michael Jackson Gabagoo.

Gilbert just doesn't seem to have a governor of when to stop so he takes jokes to the extreme.

I am a Gilbert fan myself, but a little Gilbert goes a LONG way. So to hear him in that seat everyday would be a little much for me. Here are my top 3 choices IF Artie never comes back:

Adam Carolla - Don't know if he could fly as a sidekick now
George Takei - Is way too busy to do the show everyday
Billy West - Too much animosity towards the show

I really miss Artie and to me, because I thought he was one of the best things on the show, I really feel his absence. Today, the Super Bowl discussion just wasn't the same without Artie. To me, all the things that Howard does that drive me up the wall - like the endless bits on the megaphone and just dragging out stuff for too long in general when it's not that funny - are more noticeable without Artie there to mix it up and throw in his two cents or colorful stories. Today, Howard was going on and on and on about American Idol, and I am an American Idol FAN and it was still driving me nuts! I just find myself getting more impatient with Howard's juvenile humor and jokes (and his snorting - arrrrrggggghhhhhhh, that drives me up a wall), and I want to hear more about Robin, Gary and Fred, or more about Howard's life with Beth and less of his 'imaginary phone conversations' on the megaphone. I think without Artie there and without any 'real guests' (not Wack Pack members) to interview, Howard's humor can get very redundant to me. I think he is at his best when he has someone else to bounce questions off of or have a conversation with.

This is why I am praying for some good guests to hurry and get in there - I see Benicio Del Toro is due to come in, but the last time Benicio was on, part of what made his interview fun was Artie's various comments and interruptions!! Benicio, on his own, is not much of a talker!

It's been about 2 whole months since Artie left - remember, he was gone even before they went on holiday break in December because he was "asked" to take a leave. I can't believe it has been that long, but I wish he would get his act together and come back!!

Oh, and I think Howard should do American Idol. he won't be the big meanie that he says he will be - we all know that. He will follow the rules and act like an adult, and he may throw out a little comment here or there, but he won't be that bad. I thnk it would be great for him and for Idol. Also, Beth could take more work being in Los Angeles part of the year. But I bet he is going to be difficult and turn down the offer.

That's what I am worried about...

Sure he's a contreversial figure, but we all know he is a kitty cat deep down inside. But this goes against everything Howard has fought for.
Following the rules? come on... as for musical talent, do you think Howard REALLY knows music?
The real reason I would not want Howard to do Idol... is it is the apparent end to the Howard Stern Show. His contract with Sirius is up this December. And as loyal fans, we have all been with him through his contract re-negotiations, his threats of not returning, but deep down we knew he'd be back. This time... I am not so sure. He is 57, waking up at 4:00 am has to be taking it's toll. So if he accepted this position, we would not have live/real Howard ever again.
I know it's selfish, but I am putting Howard in my shoes. If there was something out there that gave Howard enjoyment, that he looked forward to every morning, he would not want that to go away. So do I wish Howard the best.... Well to be honest, he already has the best. I wish ME the best... and for me, the best includes Howard/Robin/Fred/Gary/ and hopefully Artie in the mornings.

Even Howard Stern won't get me to watch American Idol. ;)

You're right about missing Artie. I love football and their lack of knowledge is quite painful. :rolleyes: Not having guests doesn't really bother me. I like when Gary, Will or Jason are in the studio and they are just talking about nothing, but I wish Fred would speak up more too. Artie's absence is definitely missed and I hope he's getting better. :hug:

I think if he does do this- it will be the end of his career as he knows it. This is so beneath him and what he really is. His fans will scatter and not care anymore. BAD MOVE DUDE!

He does have horrible taste in music- he is like a teenage girl. He plays that junk and I can honestly say, I have never heard ONE song he is talking about. (thank GOD!)

As for Artie, he may never come back now that it sounds like Howard might be giving up the show. :guilty:

Like I said, bad move Howard, bad move. :sad2:

I have to turn the station- I am heading over to mah Liquid Metal \m/

BTW! I tried to get online to listen to Howard yesterday morning. I got a notice that I had to pay 2.99 in addition to my yearly subscription of $150!!!!!! WTH!!? My subscription expired on 2/6 but I do the auto renewal so the radio was covered, but not the internet.

I called Sirius and talked to a woman and told her "this is crazy! I have been a subscriber since 06 and I only listen to (2!!) stations b/c the rest of your programming SUCKS!" :rotfl2: She started cracking up! :laughing: ...........and she waived the 2.99 a month.

I asked about the "a la carte" subscription and she said you have to have the Starmate 5 to chose that option. :guilty:

:lmao: I am listening to the West Coast feed and thinking of you- Howard is on the megaphone:rotfl2:

Hee hee!:goodvibes:rotfl2: You know that megaphone yesterday and today was driving me NUTS. Enough already, Howard!!

And I agree - enough Jay Leno talk. Frankly, I am sure Jay is not the greatest of people, but I don't dislike him enough to want to sit through Howard's endless venomous rants against him. I am just indifferent to Jay, and I think Howard is coming across as a very angry, bitter person when he rails against him all the time.

Also, here's a revelation - I don't dislike Oprah at all. I like Oprah. I don't watch every show of hers but she does not bother me. I don't understand Howard's venom towards her, either, but it gets boring.

And, as I stated previously, I watch American Idol, but I am SICK of Howard talking about it.

Honestly, I don't think you guys have anything to worry about with Howard taking a job with American Idol at all. I only want him to do it. I don't think he will do it at all. He is too cranky and complains way too much to where even if they pay him big bucks, he will still find a way to grumble about having to fly to, say, St. Louis for auditions. And he would find out that it involved more work than he thought it did and would be unhappy with that.

You know how you can tell Howard won't do American Idol? he is talking way too much about it. He is talking too much about the $100 million figure, even just as speculation. Also, he is bashing Ryan S. and Ellen D. way too much, which I don't think he would do if he were about to sign a contract. He would shut up about them if he were just about to work with them. He is almost making it certain that they will not hire him because he is so mean about Ellen and Ryan. Also, he will not be popular with that middle America crowd who watches AI but refuses to listen to the Howard Stern Show. There is no getting aorund the fact that some people think he is the devil and will tune out to AI if he is on it. He won't do it, and he probably already knows he is not taking the job, but he just enjoys the news reports about himself!!

Even if, by some fluke, Howard did take the AI job (which he will not), I bet he would still find a way to do some shows on Sirius. Whether it was a once-a-week gig or twice every other week or whatever the set-up, I bet he would not abandon his radio audience completely, even though he says he would ditch radio to take AI. I think he would do both AI and some form of a radio show in a scaled back schedule. We already know that he is almost 100% certain to scale back the show to even fewer days/fewer hours than what it is now when he renews his Sirius contract - yes, I said when he renews, not if! He thinks working 4 days a week is too much, and most of the time he has his foot almost out the door as Robin reads the news. So even without AI to take his attention, he will not be here on the air as much if he renews. But I still think he would do radio in some capacity in those off months from AI.

Basically, when it comes down to it...Howard is a lot of talk but not so much action when it comes to seizing opportunities and taking jobs offered. he had said before that AI should offer him the job, but now that they have, he won't do it. And if he does, never fear - he won't leave radio completely. I would bet on that!!

Oh, how I wish Artie would get his act together and talk Sirius into letting him come back to the show. Howard is getting on my nerves so much lately and he has had so few interesting guests that Artie's energy would very much be appreciated about now. It used to be in the old days that after the show took a vacation and came back, I was up at 3:00 a.m. Pacific time to hear that first show on the East Coast feed after they returned. I was so excited to hear what they had to say. This time, I rolled over out of a perfectly good slumber this morning, turned on the radio, heard Howard ranting about American Idol again - and then I shut off the radio and went back to sleep!!!:rotfl2: When I turned it on again later, I heard him doing a long, drawn-out bit about J.D. and Ashley Dupree - and I turned it off. Same old same old. He drags stuff out for too long and then doesn't let other thing go as long as they should - like he will cut off guests when they are speaking, or cut off Artie's stories or whatever.

I hate to say it - I think Howard really may be better off retiring or cutting his hours on air back substantially when this contract ends. I don't think he WILL leave radio, but if he does, I think it will be for the best. And believe me, 10 years ago I would have been completely upset if he left radio. But he is even crankier and more irritated and more juvenile about everything than ever before, and I think he needs a long, long, long break!!!

I agree that the American Idol thing is a bit much. I thought that would quiet down after coming back from the break, but it hasn't. Could be all this is part of a negotiation ploy with Sirius-XM.

I'm sure that if he does come back, it will be on a reduced basis. Perhaps going from 4 days to 3. Personally, if I was him, I'd do the live show in the afternoon and have the replay in the morning. I would think it would be easier to get guests and nice not dealing with getting up at 4 AM all the time.

I don't think he wants to re-negotiate. I think he's had enough of 4:00 am wakeups.

I agree 100% with everything you said, except the Artie coming back thing. I think by the time he would be well enough to come back, the show would be on its way out. I miss the guy and liked him even through his binge when he wouldn't shut up for two seconds, but I don't see him coming back. I do think everything else you said was dead on. I am tired of Howard interrupting Robin's news clips because he wants to get out of the studio. He gets 100 million dollars for the six months he works. He is just tired of it and he wants to go. He will always be involved in some sense because he needs to be heard, but not the 4am five our shifts that kill him.

I hope we at least hear Artie on some kind of going away wrap up show if they have one.

Howard Stern?

I was unaware it was still 1995.

I was a huge O&A fan ever since they started broadcasting in Philly. Little Jimmy will always be the man, but for some reason I just lost interest. I don't know if they were too scared to be edgy when they got back on the air or what, but something wasn't there for me. Then when Tippy Tom (RIP) said what he said and they got thrown off again, well they were walking on eggshells. Every now and then I will tune in and listen if Patrice or someone is in studio, but that is usually when Stern is on another one of his vacations.

OK- listening to Howard- he is talking about AI again.

Ya know- it is a sad, sad day when AMERICAN IDOL is considered SACRED and god forbid Howard frickin' makes comments about some sucky singers being throw down a trap- OOOOOOOOOOOh GOD FORBID!!!! (OMG- I just heard Christian Bale "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh good for youuuuuuuuu":rotfl2:)

This country is such a bunch....of.....stinking........WHINERS!!:sad2:

He had a great interview the other day with Harry Shearer, who does many of the Simpson voices and was a part of the classic "Spinal Tap". It's interviews like this one that bring my faith back in Howard. The second I hear AI talk I change the channel. Hello Playboy...:littleangel:

Ooooh. I missed that! I haven't gotten to listen to much of the show at all lately. That's great news about Artie. I love Artie and don't mean this in a bad way but I don't miss him as much as I thought I would... although maybe b/c he was SUCH a wreck in the end.

How does everyone else feel about Artie's absence on the show?

ITA that he is kinder and gentler. You don't hear him bad mouthing a lot of people like he did in the past. I must say sometimes I liked when he did it- not how he would drag it out, but I liked when he had the "dirt" on people and just get angry :laughing: I miss him telling Gary or Scott to "GET OUT OF MY STUDIO!"

I also like that he does not have that many chicas in the studio anymore. That got boring for me. I would turn the station b/c I could recite word for word what he was going to say to them. blah blah blah, heard it a million times before Howard. I still turn the dial once and a while, like when he goes on and on about AI, Dancing with the Stars, Jay etc etc.

He does need to let loose sometimes and enjoy things in his life. He says Beth does not mind the way he is, but it has to be a downer sometimes. :rolleyes:

How in the world can 100 people drink out of ONE jar and get (as Howard calls it) "stoned"? That is probably why that caller mentioned smoking dope at the party. Howard used the word "stoned" instead buzzed or drunk.

richmo
05-19-2010, 08:11 AM
I'm pretty much in agreement on the recent comments about Robin's news. I think she's gotten so involved with other things that the preparation just isn't there. I know there's even a website out there somewhere that points out all her mistakes, and that's been going on for years. Now I hear her do stories that are sometimes several days old, and the fact checking just isn't there, or the clips just add nothing.

I'm starting to think that, whatever Howard does, she may be headed out for TV. She does have a lot of talent and has done very well as a guest on some of the other shows. However, I think her focus has shifted away from the show.

That being said, when the new contract starts next year (I should say IF the new contract starts next year), I would think Howard could cut an hour off the show by dropping the news portion and I expect Robin won't be back. Actually, I would think it would be easier on Howard if he turns it into an afternoon show instead and the replay could be in the morning instead. Instead of borrowing guests from Today and Regis, he can get them on the way to Letterman...plus the hours would be better for getting the west coast interviews on the phone.

If Robin goes, he would need to get a female voice in there. The obvious choices would be someone like Sarah Silverman or maybe Jillian Barberie, who could do it while in California via Satellite/ISDN. However, its likely neither would be available. Another thought is the cohost Ferrall had when he first started at Sirius...I forget her name, but I thought she did a nice job and was good the one time Howard had her in.

Finally, while I'm on my rant, when the new lineup comes up next year, I think its time to cut ties with Bubba. I used to enjoy listening to him in small chunks, but its all car racing and wrestling now. Just doesn't seem to be a fit for 100/101. Plus 4 out of 5 days its just a replay of a terrestrial radio show.

Howard complains about EVERYTHING! He can always find something wrong. That's just him.
Don't know how his wife can stand that...

I'm pretty much in agreement on the recent comments about Robin's news. I think she's gotten so involved with other things that the preparation just isn't there. I know there's even a website out there somewhere that points out all her mistakes, and that's been going on for years. Now I hear her do stories that are sometimes several days old, and the fact checking just isn't there, or the clips just add nothing.

I 100% disagree.

Howard would not even consider doing his show without Robin. No if's, and's or but's!

ITA- not only would Howard not replace Robin with another female, can you IMAGINE the backlash from the fans?:eek: I know we can all say we do not like Robin- but we will not accept anyone else in her place.

I think if Artie were to come back, it would make us forget that Robin's big mouth is gone. I like the banter between Artie and Howard. I would like to see Gilbert come in once and while too. Those 3 together crack me up! :thumbsup2

hmm maybe Jillian Barberie as a replacement?
on another note today was a day I missed Artie. That whole Jeff the Drunk thing would've been epic!

:laughing: I'm a bad girl- I didn't listen yesterday.

I turned it off. Was it Jimmy who was a guest yesterday? When I turned it back on, some chick was yapping and I didn't feel like hearing about her sexapades (Howard was asking if she ever tried......well, blah blah blah)- so, I turned on some music for the rest of the day \m/:rolleyes:

I just now heard Jeff screaming about the trailer, his brother and a chair :lmao:

I totally agree. No way does the show go on without Howard, Fred and Robin.

Poor Jeff the Drunk :eek:
