for sheer dumb brute funniness i love shit like carefully staged bigfoot prank calls

there are some richard and sal pranks that are like i don't want to sound like stockhausen on 9/11 but they're so artfully carefully staged and they knock me out.
― dylannn, Sunday, 4 September 2011 04:02 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i think Richard in particular has had some really creative ones. my all-time fave is when he layered his voice so that he was saying multiple things at the same time and the poor person on the other line didnt know which one to respond to!

morbius do you remember when you said that howard stern is "generally worshipped by hipsters"? that was pretty weird, i still puzzle over that.

Any suggestion by a public figure that 9/11 was, as Malcolm X surely would have said, a case of "the chickens coming home to roost" must follow it up within 24 hours with an abject apology.

artie on letterman tonight
― dylannn, Saturday, 15 October 2011 00:41 (twelve years ago) link
sort of bombed on letterman with good material but all over the place timing.
is the nick and artie show any good? i haven't missed it so far and i think it's really good but i've heard a lot of people saying the opposite. nick dipaolo... sometimes he seems unwilling to play along with the format and fucks with callers in really obnoxious ways, and he seems too quick to shut down artie's bits.
― dylannn, Tuesday, 25 October 2011 11:02 (twelve years ago) link
Nick and Artie is OK but not good enough to listen to consistently. Artie in my opinion is a sideman and Nick is just not up to par yet. More than anything I wish Artie would go back with Howard.
― calstars, Saturday, 29 October 2011 00:16 (twelve years ago) link
a caller finally directly broached the topic and asked why artie doesn't go back on stern. he said, hey, it was my fault, can't blame them. i screwed it up.
i dunno, i listen to it compulsively, despite nick dipaolo 1) being a shitty radio guy, 2) constantly tellingme about how women are taking over the country and how it sucks that we can't make jokes about gays and blacksanymore.
artie doing bill curtis calling the world series had me laughing more than anything i've heard in a while.
― dylannn, Saturday, 29 October 2011 07:29 (twelve years ago) link
kurtis.
i remember when i wasn't that into stern and i read the summary in the first post here and i thought,goddamn, who could listen to that??? i came around and i've heard that show in particular, even, andit's entertaining enough but... these days, i can't get into it, the few live shows per week.
― dylannn, Saturday, 29 October 2011 07:31 (twelve years ago) link
nick dipaolo is a horrible radio host and has dumb disgusting opinions.
artie lange as bill kurtis as dean wormer reading the grades to delta house.

I haven't been following the live show recently, but I've been enjoying the Stern Show Shuffle, which is just a random selection of long clips going back, occasionally it'll misfire, but in the main I'm digging it.

Now HS is down to a couple of days a week, they are really pushing the archives, we've got Stern Show Shuffle, Mammary Lane, Mastertape Theatre and now Sirius So-Far. Just as well I guess, as show is boring as hell the the mo'.

Yep. I pretty much force myself through the show these days. He seems to really be elsewhere and his 'if you don't like it, fuck you' attitude sucks.

A few weeks ago a friend of mine, a hardcore lefty, organic-food buying, only listens to pre-war jazz sort, out of nowhere extolled the virtues of Howard Stern, declaring him hilarious, perceptive, the whole gamut. Sort of blew my mind. He grew up in New Jersey, I grew up in PA, so we both grew up with this guy on the air. And yet I grew up thinking him an innocuously reactionary, vaguely libertarian distraction, and my friend ... a genius. So it goes.
― Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 5 June 2012 17:45 (eleven years ago) link
he's gotten a bit more liberal in the past decade or so ... esp. b/c he's explicitly pro-gay nowadays and has gone after Sarah Palin, Santorum and anti-evolution jackasses.
― Stinky Ray Vaughan (Eisbaer), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 00:31 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, but he's still obnoxious and cynical in the worst way, disguising his sexism and misogyny as a statement on his audience and their tastes as much as anything else. He sort of reminds me of Larry Flynt, in a way, an opportunist just shrewd enough to make me feel even worse about his reach and effectiveness.
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 6 June 2012 01:04 (eleven years ago) link
i dunno.
compared to 2012 rock radio host misogyny and sexism, stern is pretty mild. a lot of those attitudes are mocked on the show. the attitudes of guys like ronnie "let's fuck some whores"/the limo driver mund, sal, jd are ridiculed. and there's a balance from stern himself and robin that doesn't happen on similar shows.
shrewd is a fair description, though. stern is always smart about stuff like this, balancing i think genuine discomfort with some on-show antics while also letting things go.
but yeah, try sitting through an hour of bubba's show or your rick and buzzy in the morning on your local fm rock station and then sit through an hour of stern (which will be him talking about reality shows, talking to robin about her medical problems, and a call from bobo).
