The Howard Stern Thread

I think H will lose a lot of steam when they eventually pass, but he’ll probably continue, and the show will continue morphing from hijinks and towards a Larry king style thing

Brent dis track by Bubba “little more Ronnie mund, a little less Hatley” so good

brent sucks I can't stand him

memet i get why people dislike him but he's fine. he has more range. like, he could lose his mind one day KC style. he already sort of did iirc, he got packed up real bad in studio and didn't appear on air for months. but he's interesting. brent is even more boring than jan

Agreed. Brent has the personality of a dead moth. He should just go off and live in a cave and not bother anybody. He’s only good as a target of ridicule ...
Jan Hein still my least favorite tho

Jan is interesting though. He's the most likely to go postal one day, and when he has lost it (iirc at Benjy ~2 years ago), it's just amazing. He's so full of rage and never expresses it. He's also just fucking weird. Not moving from the front of the line after he's ordered at McDonalds, "So I make sure they get my order right"? There's a very thin veneer of class and courtesy over the storm inside of him.

Brent has nothing, he's lmao, yes, a dead moth. But I haven't been listening much this year, is he fucked up too? Lol

Goddamn, the Les Moonves Puppet Show was some prime psychodrama. Felt like an old show.

really no one has the trump howard stern tapes?

what tapes

xp I haven't listened but heard yesterday's show was unbearable. I cancelled my subscription a while ago, ever since they kicked Benjy out of the studio and having Brent/Jan/Jason in more regularly I've lost interest. I'll check it out... also the Paul interview. Didn't realize it was only his third appearance on the show (others were 2001 & 2009).

i think all the appearances are online

i mentioned it before but trump battling aj benza is great, absolute fucking pieces of shit:

yeah Howard on terrestrial radio has to be one of the most well documented and widely preserved shows of all time. that whole "releasing tapes" stuff during the election was total BS. anyone can find Trump on the show.

"— In 1999, Trump boasted to Stern about his girlfriend of eight months, a model named Melania Knauss from Austria. (The now-first lady is actually from Slovenia.) Among her attributes? She doesn’t have cellulite. In fact, Trump says, she doesn’t even know what the word means. “Isn’t it nice when somebody doesn’t know what the word means?” he asked."

Rejected Sal/Richard bits are the best:
Christmas egg nog/jizz Russian roulette
Heaviest load contest
Longest sh1t streak contest
Heaviest diaper contest

Angry Alice update on 10/15 was great, insulting H
“I seen him lately. He looks like a beat-up witch”

Artie man. So rough. Saw some recent pictures of him, his nose is just completely fucked. I can't believe he's still alive. Heard he was brought up on the show recently? (via Ralph I believe)

Yeah, dunno what to say about Artie these days.

On 11/5 H said he had a sketch of the Fartman costume in a frame in his bathroom. Yuck

Back to Art though, I heard that it’s pretty difficult to install an artificial septum once the natural one disappears. It doesn’t just grow back

“Beth walked into my ‘office’ yesterday and said ‘what is that stink?’...I wasn’t even aware that I was farting.”

apparently H went on a classic FORTY minute rant about a Wendy Williams diss the other day, and now he's removed it from replays and Sirius On Demand. now it's everywhere, of course. See how long this lasts: https://soundcloud.com/user-372689204/howard-stern-berates-wendy-williams-3132019

Heard about that, can’t wait to hear it. Thanks

Question at this point is when does the wig come off

I was thinking the same thing about Trump today

I'm listening now, the way he builds it up for four minutes before exploding is stunning

lol at Howard buying a cane (ostensibly or help him walk on icy sidewalks) and Beth immediately poo pooing the idea of him using it

I love how many amazon people have given his new turd of a book a one-star review

apparently H said that he wants his archive "destroyed" when he dies and that he put it in his will

He really doesn’t understand the digital age does he

thank god for the tapers

I reviewed the book, it's worthless if you've been listening for the last decade. all compiled interviews (edited & condensed of course), with little commentary from H aside from the introduction and a paragraph or two before each interview. most surprising & disappointing bit is him disavowing the incredible Wilmer Valderrama interview from early 2006, obviously one of the best 06-09 interviews.

lately, the prominence of that canadian Chris guy and Brett the Swinger/former lackey of Bubba made me notice something… the show suddenly has voice actors on call much much more than it did even three, four years ago. I think there's this person called Rachel who does female voice acting, I think she does Ivanka, and then she'll do Ronnie's mom (which is hilarious). Or are these two different people? There have been of course voice actors like the Mitt Romney person, the Arnold person, Hillary, Obama etc who called in I think remotely for many years, but I think the show now has a large team of producers at Sirius HQ in who can do voices on the fly, like the Alex Jones person? has anyone else noticed this? This seems like a significant change from how the show operated…like I would almost say this began two years ago?

I used to have the stern network board as a resource for inside info as to how the show operates, but it's gone and I don't particularly want to fuck with Reddit..

It seems like they have two women. One I think does Ivana and the other does Sarah huckabee.
I think Chris wilding is pretty funny but I have no interest in his personal life. JD on the other hand...

Yes Veronica, I noticed and it's a big part of why I lost interest. To ditch actual callers completely was just too much.

Really it was Benjy being kicked out of the studio that soured me, and I can't stand Brett.

how can you do the show without guys like pittsburgh pete and bong hit?

i haven't listened post-2012ish but there are still thousands of hours of stern material i've never heard, like this, a gem from the krock days

Jim from Raleigh still gets thru sometimes

"To ditch actual callers completely was just too much"

???? Every single day, he takes calls…

Ass Napkin called in recently

what's he up to?

this poor guy was pumping gas until a couple days ago when he was busted again, failed a piss test. doesn't look good.

how many of them are canned though? or exclusively fawning? even from 3-4 years ago, the show just feels so much less spontaneous.

Hey baby gorilla, fill it up with regular

Benji wearing all black clothes to make himself look slimmer
Fred in his Benjy voice: “I’m a chubby ninja”

lol i'm glad he didn't get fired

Someone at HBO must have rebuked Howard. He’s been crapping on them for awhile now and speaking favorably of Netflix

‘95 classic dumb fight between Stuttering John and Robin

I tried listening a few weeks ago for a few days. Some parts were good, but the news is no longer enjoyable because of the voice actor phonecalls interrupting every 2 minutes.

Large portions of the show these days are skippable , esp the execrable feature interviews. Ronnie and JD bringing the best content for the last couple of months imho

that is a great fight, I remember it, thanks for sharing

I saw he had Bill Maher on - they made up?

I’m about a month behind but wouldn’t be surprised. H is friendly with everyone these days. God bless Wendy Williams for still truly aggravating him.

god that rant was so good
