I love the Jay vs. Conan stuff...

Beat's the hell out of:

Howard: Yeah
Med Pete: Yeah
Howard: Yeah
Med Pete: Yeah
Howard: Yeah
Med Pete: Yeah
Howard: Yeah
Med Pete: Yeah
Howard: Yeah
Med Pete: Yeah

repeat...

Although, have to admit, I love the Medicated Pete saga as well... Hahahaha..

 

[maddhatir]

but a convo w/ Medicated Pete is rare.

I just get frustrated b/c it is the very first thing he talks about as soon as he comes on. I am just bored with it. He is obsessed.

BTW- anyone here LOVE Gilbert!? It seems you either love 'em or hate 'em- I have always loved him. He is just like this unruly child He is so bad.

And I enjoyed the Herschel Walker interview- he sounds like such a sweetie

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!! (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.

I'm sorry, your mic wasn't on... can you repeat that.

 

[kaseycamille]

Get your weirdo a** on a plane to California and go on Conan, Howard! PLEASE!!!

 

[askelton]

I could listen to Howard and Gilbert all day. So funny! I could care less about Jay or Conan as I don't watch either, however I would love to see Howard on Conan. Actually, I don't watch any of the shows Howard talks about. So sad about Artie. He's great.

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.

 

[maddhatir]

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

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 As soon as you hear that megaphone "click" you know it is coming 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

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......."Ethel, Ethel Mertz..............."

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.

 

[askelton]

I can't believe you don't like George! He's great, and Richard and Sal's calls not so much. The Ted Kennedy and Mrs. Stern voices are hysterical. I read TK's autobiography, which was very interesting btw, but I was reading in that voice. Thankfully Howard does plenty of different bits so we're all entertained.

Not sure what it is about George.

I was listening to Sal and Richard's scooter call on Youtube yesterday- I had tears running down my cheeks. I also found the clip of when Richard calls the xmas store, the buffet and when he calls the woman about that darn wheelbarrow/leather chair OMG It's the Ethel voice- get's me everytime!

Assuming Howard is off today???

 

[maddhatir]

Awwww- I feel bad for Yuko

I think he is funny- stupid funny, but funny.

 

[twokids0204]

Awwww- I feel bad for Yuko

I think he is funny- stupid funny, but funny.

My respect for Yuko is Zero Point Zero. Especially after his comment about "(Something I can't even repeat on the disboards, let alone anywhere else) being trapped under rubble in Haiti"

I wouldn't care if he was never on the show again *honk* *honk*

He is not funny at all. He is talentless, immature, and a looooser!

OMG I know what you are talking about!!!! THAT was NOT funny!!! I was listening to the West Coast feed and he said that after I posted that!!

He used to be funny on the show. I just felt bad for him b/c Gary let him have it! Not sure where it was all coming from.

 

[PAcpl]

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

Or of course:

 

[maddhatir]

Or of course:

for the love of god NO!!!

You will hear about Sirius/XM subscribers shoving ice pics in their ears! It would certainly be less painful than listening to mumbling for 5 hours

 

[bumble]

Did anyone happen to hear Capt. Jenks call in this morning? It was a blast from the past. He's been going through some serious legal issues.

Howard played the best Jenks phony phone call ever, according to Howard. It was when Jenks impersonated Kathy Lee Gifford during a call to a telethon pledging $500,000.

Priceless.

 

[twokids0204]

Wonder how Artie is...

Not heard alot of chatter about that fat suicidal heroin junkie!

I miss him....
