I am not so sure because he made a glamourous career kind of about it and ofcourse he jokes about it.But he has to I understand.Its the only way for him!
Smitty Knickerbocker He was funnier when he was just himself. This here is mostly pre written stuff, and it's painfully obvious. At least on the Stern show he could coast, but chime in naturally.
Daniel 1 I only listen to OLD Howard shows here on RU-vid. And I know Jackie and Benjy plus more wrote what Howard said but I was talking about ARTIE. Do you have trouble reading or something?? I thought he was great on the HS show where ARTIE was more natural.
Daniel 1 Dude it's MY opinion. This here did not entertain ME. It overkill. If this shit entertains you then watch it a thousand times, I don't give one fuck lol. I just didn't enjoy it. And yes I thought Artie was on fire when he was high. I'll never forget the High Pitch Mike Disney Land thing hahaha, now that was funny and not planned at all. Anyway you should learn the concept that people have different opinions than yours. This was nothing like when he was on Howard because Howard carried the show. When Artie tries here to carry the show it's too much IN MY OPINION, and very cringy TO ME.
@marc melchiori hey youll get through it brother. Just remember to always be true to yourself and mom and dad will come along eventually. Stay strong and take care.
I hate to bring up Howard but Artie was the best when Artie and Howard fed off each other. Howard was actually funny also because of Artie. Now neither one of them are the same.
AA Show had many excellent moments but Anthony couldn’t reel Artie back in the way Howard could (ditto Jimmy for Anthony- if Jim does jump from Sirius and co-hosts with Ant again it’ll be the funniest show in broadcasting again).
Been a stern fan for my entire life. Been an artie fan for at least a dozen years. I'm a big fan of artie. He was great on stern and excellent alone. Long live artie
This is the sharpest I've heard Artie in a long time but that could change by tomorrow. He was gold once. Didn't realize he made that much on Stern. Nice.
Peter Holland also, this is not my picture. I’m using digital blackface as an experiment. And you’re right, but it’s still hard to watch. He just got 4 years of probation. I don’t think he’ll make it or even live to see the end of it.
Yea I remember seeing him on the a a show like wtf happen I mean I was so used to seeing him on stern watching old clips then seen him like an old man if he died his Hair he mite look little better got some sun he’s got demons I think it goes back to his father he just didn’t care
Had to laugh "dont talk badly about him and be a hypocrite", followed up with "even though he looks like quasimodo" lmao this comment so hypocritical😂🤣😂🤣
Artie was gold on Stern, I don't think he's a great comic, but he added sooooooo much to the show. So quick witted, such a gift. I love to hear him on anything.
I sometimes wonder what it would be like to be so lacking in self-awareness as to have installed several scabbards in my own torso and to have done that to my nose, and yet to have the nerve to refer to other people's behavior and thoughts as irrational with no sarcasm or irony at all.
Shamey Ames hit the nail on the head. The hallmark of an addict that will never completely get away from their addiction is not taking responsibility for their own actions. Howard loved Artie, and Artie broke his heart. He (Howard) gave him chance after chance to get better and finally wouldn't take him back after he tried to kill himself because he didn't want to be keep contributing to Artie's self destruction. Even after letting him go he never hired anyone to replace him, much to the detriment of the show, and all Artie does is attack him.
My daughter sent this years ago, or something similar. Today she mentors to people who were selected through a process to earn time and resources in holistic mentoring. Accountability, hard work, unity, trustworthy, partnering .. Artie would not fit the criteria for real impact, vision and leave a legacy for his children's children. He's prolly a good guy down deep. Hurt people hurt people is what we came to discover. Our daughter has been classified as a "world changer to thousands if not millions." Makes me strive daily in becoming better man, to my wife, country, in an earned mentoring program. This is not blame, it's in Artie's DNA... AN OPEN LETTER FROM AN ADDICT To Those Who Suffer With Us and Because of Us: First of all, you need to know that my addiction is not your fault. It’s nothing you did or did not do. Mom, it’s not because you worked so much or didn’t have dinner with me every night. Dad, it’s not because you drank too much or remarried too soon. Brother or sister, it’s not because you took away my spotlight. Husband, wife, partner, lover… it’s not because you told me I was fat or not smart enough or not good enough or chose her over me. No, it’s none of these reasons. You need to understand that my addiction is not your fault. Repeat that. Roll it over and over in your mind. My addiction is not your fault. In fact, it’s not yours at all. It is mine. Secondly, please stop asking me why I am doing this to you. Addiction is not a weapon… it isn’t something we choose to wield against those we love, it isn’t suppressed anger or aggression in the form of a pill or a needle or a pipe. You have to understand… I don’t know why I am doing this to myself, much less to you. Even more… I don’t care what I’m doing to you. I care about the pill.. or the needle.. or the pipe. And that is all. My life is my drug of choice. It controls me, consumes me, dictates all of my thoughts and actions with absolutely no regard to consequence or outcome. And this includes hurting you. I don’t understand what hurting someone means anymore… I am blind to your feelings, deaf to your pleas, numb to any emotion you may be feeling. I do not feel anything. I feel sick when I am not high and I feel a distorted sense of normal when I am. But you see… I cannot be high and have the human experience of emotion at the same time. I am a shell. I have no capacity to love or hate or cry or FEEL anything at all. I am a shell, fueled by pills to only find and use more pills. Your concerns are none of my concern. I will lie to you and steal from you and deny, deny, deny. And somewhere, deep down inside, I know I am hurting you, killing you even… and this little part of me hates the rest of me for all that I am doing, but the drugs are so loud, DEAFENING SOUNDS IN MY MIND, and they always win. I will leave you lying, battered and beaten and begging me to stop, on my well-worn path of self-destruction and never look back, as long as the outcome is drugs coursing through my veins. This is not your fault. And I don’t destroy you because I don’t love you. I destroy you because the drugs are destroying me and I can’t stop, won’t stop, don’t know how to stop. I lie in bed at night and pray to a god that I don’t think exists that I will not repeat this cycle tomorrow… but god doesn’t answer. The drugs answer, and they tell me the only escape is more, more, more, always more. And I believe them. ] My addiction is not yours. It is mine. It is my prison, it is my god, it is my heaven and my hell, my lover, my enemy, my only loyal companion. I do not want it but cannot rid myself of it. You cannot help me. You cannot love me out of it, hate me out of it, buy me or bribe me out of it. I am the only one holding the keys to my own dungeon, yet I cannot find the locked door for the darkness. Not until I have had enough pain, enough loss, enough misery, enough hell, will I try to change. But when I do, IF I do, my climb out of my grave will be my own. It has to be my own, because only then will I value that climb, that pain, that CHANGE. Please be patient with me. This change is not an easy one, or a fast one, or even a guaranteed one. The wreckage that I have left will not disappear overnight. Please do not push me to fix it all right now. It took me years to destroy my life, and while I’m trying my best, I will not repair it all before tomorrow’s dawn. My addiction is not yours. No matter how well you know me, how much you love me… you do not know the addict that rages inside of me. It looks nothing like the daughter or son or brother or sister or husband or wife or lover you know. No, you do not know the voice in my head that convinces me to disregard you and your love. That tells me to find it, find that pill, then find that needle and put it in my arm and forget about you and the pain in your eyes. I fight daily to speak louder, think smarter, be braver than this voice. This battle is my own, you cannot help me fight. My addiction is not yours. It is mine. And today, I have silenced it. Today, I feel love for you. Today, I am grateful for you. Today, I choose to be the person you know and love and understand. My addiction is my own.
I loved when Howard would be noticeably influenced and impacted by Artie being there, like he would all of a sudden try to be manly about something and he was just so outta his element it was great
Artie sounds better. No constant sniffling, not mumbling dumb jokes. I hope he makes a comeback and gets a radio show again he is always enjoyable to listen to
Artie Lange is a star and if he could cut out the bull*** and be himself the sky is the limit. He is basically a good dude who undermines himself on a steady basis but make no mistake about it his talent is real and better than 99% of those around him. People talk of his drug problems but I'd be equally concerned about his diabetes which is not something to ignore. Artie said once that he could not fly on one occasion due to it being not controllable and if this is the case he has very serious issues with diabetes. It has been in my family so it is an issue dear to me. Good luck Artie!
This is getting really tiring man. Artie was fired almost 10 years ago and he is STILL commenting on it like it happened yesterday because it's the only way that people will give a shit about him, it's the only way that he can booked anywhere mainstream and his for from grace is very sad
So true! Howard doesn’t talk about this stuff anymore or hasn’t for years....I miss Artie on the Stern show but he made his own bed. I’m tired of Artie always bashing Howard, enough is enough.
In Artie’s defense he was on the greatest radio show of all time. It’s no different than someone who was in a great rock band years ago that people give a shit about or was on some NFL Super Bowl team 30 years ago that people will still interview or talk about
4.2 million a year, holy shit he got well paid, I used to see estimates of 400K a year. It's obvious they all make way more than they let on when you watch the show and see how nonchalant they are about money, but when they do a bit they pretend like 100 bucks is a fortune.
@@roguetwo5903 very true! But it's still crazy how much they make even low level guys like Artie. For 6 years in a row he made 4.2 mil a year. That's 25.2 million dollars in 6 years. 😱
@@cdzrocks you're telling me Artie was more important than Fred and Garry to the show??😂😂 And are u seriously telling me at any stage that Artie was ever more than a B level Celeb at best. I love Artie, but in future try not to get butthurt by the truth, and subsequently make up fairy tales in your head.
y do people give Howard a hard time about wanting nothing to do with Artie??I know Howard sucks right?? but amazingly he was able to take his sleeping and spin it into comedy...funny shit and artie just threw it away and blames Howard for everything that happened after the fact...its just wrong
RobSKIDDY what’s up with meth? It’s cool if you want to walk to saint Louis and back.. he’s still using that stupid joke.. your right the fast talk all he does and relive Howard and still sucks his dick.. he failed at suicide how many times 2 or 3?? But commited career suicide perfectly!
Artie is 1 of those comedians that just does the same act for years ,the only new stuff that got added to his act was stern show references and some new drug stories from when he fell asleep on the show.
Artie sat in Jackie's cursed chair . The results are obvious, that chair made Jackie into a paranoid loser and Artie into an overweight drug addicted Ogre. Note ''ie'' in both their names.
Staring at Artie’s face just makes you come up with the most horrific yet hilarious comparisons but honestly, it’s too sad to do so, hopefully he gets himself right, cmon man!
GIRLINA101 , He says he fucked it up BAD, like unusable, with all the drugs. They had to do several surgeries and procedures on it. This is the result. 😖😰
Artie Lange is flat out one of the funniest humans alive. This is a guy who doesn't need to write jokes. He is stream of consciousness funny. Or as he put it: like a jazz musician.
Leave Artie alone!!! He has damaged himself so bad that he doesn't need shit from others.he pretty much fucked up almost every gift he ever received. He looks bad,his health is bad,he is in legal trouble. He lost the Greatest Job in history. This man has lived heaven and hell in one lifetime. I mean,how much longer before we wake up to the story of Artie passing away. It's like you know it's gonna happen sooner than later. Just so sad.But I love Artie! It's almost if Howard would give him another chance, It would turn his whole life around. As a matter of fact, I know it would. But it's not Howard's responsibility to fix Artie.I mean how much more could he do for him.
Rev. bob Levy is a classy guy and loves artie like a brother ......Artie needs to get clean and get a syndicated radio show with Levy .......can you imagine the brilliant ,irreverant stuff they'd crank out on a daily basis?
