The Howard Stern Thread

the last thing I want to hear is an interview with T. Bennett. Is it worth listening to?

really didn't espect the next lesson on the de facto limits of free speech to come from Tony Bennett.

can you explain this pls

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.

i've been digging into old tapes of wnbc and older stuff on youtube. what is the best source for deep crates stuff? has someone archived stuff like robin's first appearance?

i also just watched private parts for the first time.

but i mean, how great is that second video up there? why is it great? the hitting the post routine... "okay we got some music for you. wnbc."

redskunk has yearly archives. Sort by size.

"white people say he's gross. black people say he's intelligent."

yo redskunk is full can anyone help me out?

i was like damn girl in the front has some huge titties
then it showed who it was... right beside fred

Great video, thanks.

artie on letterman tonight

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.

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.

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 telling
me about how women are taking over the country and how it sucks that we can't make jokes about gays and blacks
anymore.

artie doing bill curtis calling the world series had me laughing more than anything i've heard in a while.

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, and
it's entertaining enough but... these days, i can't get into it, the few live shows per week.

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.

Something notable in their current situations -- Howard's rise and Robin's health problems.

and he's friends with kathie lee.

have you watched this america's got talent? fuck me.

and benjy's music """career."""

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.

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.

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.

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).

a lot of old-timey Stern fans call him "Hampton Howie" these days, and spit nails at the mention of his 2nd wife Beth.

to me, 2006 to present is the time period closest to my heart but i love it all and understand the hamptons howie thing.

Feel like he might unravel a bit this summer, when the live shows start. I feel like he's very nervous about that and is taking it out on his radio staff.

Still only been listening to the occasional show, and skimming even then. I hear Robin did the show from home, tough lady!

Apparently the growth removed from her pelvic region was the size of a grapefruit.

i've missed a week or two. the last show i heard, robin just got her pee bag. so corny but i've listened to thousands of hours of her voice and feel some sort of deep weird attachment to her.

GUYS

PLEASE

what's happening with lisa g's sweet and greets?????

I liked the bit about his parents going to get yogurt.

CERVICAL CANCER MONTH HERE AT WNBC
LOVIN IT
W NBC

i love

"all the young dudes," later used by howard in the karaoke contest

"wnbc, this one going out to dana. had a rough night with artie last night. he sends his love."
singing along to "fire and rain," "just yesterday morning, vinnie told you i was with three stippers."

when fred laughs after howard says WNBC after robin says, "don't change that playlist."

"wnbc, this one's for dana, sent in by mr. artie lange over in jersey, on our all request weekend. dana, hope you're listening. artie says he's sorry for the three strippers" and when artie and howard sing "maybe i'm amazed" and howard does his grandma caprio voice before it, "artie, i wanta you to call dana and sing 'maybe i'm amazed'." and

robin singing the first part of that e.l.o. song is so fucking beautiful.

"i'm so clueless at this point, i really am"

Still stuck on the Stern Show Shuffles that they are putting out, listened to a good 'fight week' style one today whilst doing the housework.

What's the current sitch with Robin? Is she still broadcasting from home? I know it's lazy but I can't be bothered to wade through SFN.
