Damn, I love Artie. So f’n funny. John sucks. He’s so unaware. John-Artie you’re fat”. 1 minute later- “what was it like to stab yourself? Why won’t you answer the question?” Artie is so brilliant in dealing with that idiot stuttering John.
34:34 Artie makes a joke about John using the word "romp" so John comes back at him with, "It's kinda like when you tried to kill yourself and failed!" Then he says he always feels like he needs to be careful to not upset Artie whenever he's around him. There's a reason why John has no friends or family and is an alcoholic mess with no prospects today.
Agreed, I'm gonna need about 5 to 10 more years of John bashing before I can feel comfortable with the overall universal karma again.. Well, that, & Opie bashing for the same duration
John is so full of venom. Another one of his problems is he feels no embarrassment, or shame. All of us have said something embarrassing, or shameful, and we thought about it, and adjusted our behavior accordingly. For some reason, John is not able to do this.
there is an early episode of John's podcast where he tells HIS side of this incident and it's completely bonkers. In John's mind he calmly dismantled him with those questions until Artie was stunned into silence. The reality is Artie made an incredibly awkward situation hilarious while John was fuming that no one was on his side
Artie doing his John impressions is hysterical, “my friend is stabbing himself, I’m so upset I can barely let you pay for the round of golf” Artie when he was on top of the comedy world!!!!!!!
That's a weird comment... you don't think the Stern show was the Pinnacle of his comedy career ? I love the shit out of Artie but I think people would have given him the most Credit in general probably 2006 ,5 , 7 ? Somewhere around there
One thing is clear from listening to this. John Melendez has never been funny. He is thin skinned, over sensitive and completely out classed by everyone in that room. He should be embarrassed to call himself a comedian. He wasnt funny one single minute of this. Just a whiny angry drunk.
Oh man I never thought I could dislike SJ anymore Kinda upset I found this now I really hate this guy Not just because it’s Artie It’s the hypocrisy and his not knowing how to joke around
I agree. He was an annoying and irritable intern on Howard Stern but at least there was a perhaps dopey; sidekick like behavior that was somewhat likeable at times. After hearing this and a few other times he has spoken recently though his true nature of being a true toxic human being that care for no one but himself. And that is why he is divorced, his children wanting nothing from him and has burned all the bridges and little good will he had left.
John’s fake concern is despicable and just a feeble attempt to try to get under Artie’s skin. Artie wasn’t biting because he hates John. This is why John is a total POS. John is so frustrated. Hilarious.
it was a real nasty and manipulative attempt to portray himself as a caring friend when in fact he was pissed and trying to make him look better than Artie. thank God Artie destroyed him at every turn... lol
John is a talentless, resentful turd with a dark and malevolent heart. Nobody should ever have an ounce of pity for him because he’s vicious, insecure, jealous and nasty.
John thinks that if he says i love artie... That gives hin cart blanche at saying whatever he wants after that! And Artie tries to keep the show entertaining while John WONT TAKE A HINT and change the subject!!!
So John has been saying (2021/2022) that they “trashed” his kids that’s why he went with attacking Artie with the suicides!! MAJOR LIAR HE GOT MAD CAUSE HE WAS SUCKING AND THEY WERE LAUGHING AT HIM!! He doesn’t know how to hang!!!
This is so hard to listen to. I mean literally - John's voice is so gravely its hard to decipher what he is saying. Intertwined with the constant fake laughing.
Pogue my brother, if anyone is on the fence about what they think about John, they need to listen to this, or even a tiny portion of this, to eliminate all doubt. John is an unconscionable douchebag here, at his drunk clueless smug worst.
The stuttering dabbler drunk as usual. Not funny as usual. Artie eviscerates him calmly. Not in the same league. It’s not too late for AA John. You just have to admit it to yourself first. I guess it didn’t take long for Tammy to realize she hitched her wagon to the wrong “star”.
One of Arties great talents was shining a spotlight on John's grossness , and lack of humor . From about 2002 on.... What a dishonest , dishonorable , maggot.
John is just a guy who says whatever at the time because he thinks it sounds good and reflects well on himself, never mind the fact that the internet doesn't forget anything and there are 10 billion stories that negate exactly what he preaches
21:59 John mangles the grammar of his answer, at the same time one can hear pride in his voice as he believes his mastery of the English language is impressive enough to be noticed lol Artie’s second question leads to my favorite moment in podcasting. Artie is the best; there is a reason he was on Stern.. and that’s because he’s the best.
I got to tell you I almost skip this one because John was getting so damn annoying but about halfway through when artie started doing impressions of John I was crying laughing
I subscribed to this back in the day. It was fun when Artie would get around to doing a show. Weeks went by with nothing. His producer Dan from Chicago was funny. Artie took lots of "bathroom breaks."
If you saw the Artie and Anthony show with John, Artie looked SO high. I know addictions cause you to do messed up things sometimes, but Artie was so disrespectful to his jobs after getting involved with heroin. Rumor was Anthony was paying Artie really good money too, and not a lot of people were getting real cash on that show.
@@chocolatetownforever7537 Right. He was really beyond the point of being a functional addict even back then. He's a binge type. When he's using he's really gone to the world. I hope he's doing better now. He really is brilliant in his way.
@@chocolatetownforever7537 You're probably talking about the show he did briefly with Anthony Cumia. I am talking before that, he had a podcast for maybe a year called "The Artie Quitter Podcast." Just him in his kitchen. It was really great while it lasted. Really bare bones production. Something all his other stuff lacks. A rawness and very little editing. I hope someone saved all those episodes somewhere.
Does anyone know where to find the episode, i think it's Gilberts first appearance on Artie's podcast, with Artie and Gilbert talking about how Howard is PC now and apparently there's a dress code, "can't wear a t shirt that says n*****, re****, f***** on it". I swear it's banned from the fucking internet
13:20 John got totally exposed for going into material and lashed out nastily... this is a silent theme here. This resentment slowly builds until the narcissistic rage boils over and everybody knows the end result
To know how special and historical "The Tonight Show" was with Johnny Carson, having Stuttering John as the announcer on it for even a SECOND, is just so blasphemous and disrespectful to the legacy of that show. Jay Leno should be ashamed of himself.
34:27 lmao stuttering john is such an idiot. Artie says "a comedy romp who wrote it mel brookes" and john goes "like when you stabbed yourself in the stomach and tried to kill yourself".
33:23 “you’re not upset a guy who made those jokes has a basketball court in his house.” Artie made $80k appearances at his prime and ruined it… that’s just called hitting the road and playing tours, wearing out the audience and grabbing as much $$ as possible, while seen nationally as a buffoon but concerns are full in local towns still today… It’s called work, and going to get the money and not sitting expecting it to come
John made the thing uncomfortable multiple times, fortunately Artie saved it... also, cannot talk about where his kid has hacked into, he's a "genius hacker" -- pathetic
Why does everyone have to make up with John? He's like a woman. And what was the point of John going on and on about what he did when he heard Artie died? Sounded so all about himself and look how much I cared.
Artie jealous of Larry the cable guy. He was making millions while Artie was relapsing every other week, and drinking bleach. He was/is son insecure he gets upset and can't stop making jokes and talking over everyone.
Kinda goes to show that these guys needed howard to make them entertaining..i can hang w this for like 10 mins at the most yet can listen to the stern show for hours
