Any Stern Fans on this Forum?

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 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.
 
Tracey's rant about Scott was the funniest thing I heard on the show in a long time. :rotfl: I loved how she started out stating that she liked Scott and his wife outside of work and then in the matter of seconds she began to totally rip into Scott for his work ethic.

Tracey cracks me up !!!! I could listen to her blast people all day :rotfl2:
 

I've been bored by the Idol talk also. But I have to say, Howard had a great story about his recent colonoscopy the other day. It was vintage Howard. Those type of stories are what make the show so good and unfortunately it seems as though that has been missing lately.
 
Did anyone happen to hear/see Howard on the CBS Morning Show today? I heard it and then watched on DVR. I thought it was vintage Howard. The comment at the end about nothing else worthwhile on the show and the two country singers just standing there on camara was classic.

Heard it - and watched it.

Was hoping he would call Jay a thief for stealing Stu...stu....stutt...stuttttt..stutttteerrrrrinng J-J-J-Jo-Jo-John.
 
Have not listened to Howard for weeks!

Is it worth tuning in- or will it feel like I never left?
 
I saw this post on the Theme Parks and Strategies forum and thought of this thread right away:

I think you're good now. No more American Idol talk and even with Leno starting Monday the show hasn't been flooded with Leno talk. It has been classic Stern lately, still miss Artie though :sad2:
 
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:

I missed that, and I missed Joan Rivers as well...I hope to pick those up tomorrow on "Best of The Week".

That was a good interview - smart guy. When Harry went into Mr. Burns mode it was just CLASSIC :laughing: Also interesting that he did not agree to have his voice on The Simpsons ride @ Universal.
 
That's right... I didn't even think about the Universal comment. Good pick up.

Howard also mentioned that he spoke with Artie and that he sounded well. 54 days sober.

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?

I would like to have him back even just a day or two a week.

He needs to get his life in order and priorities straight.

But I will wait patiently for his return. :surfweb:
