He got everyone in the studio audience a Sirius Stiletto? How generous! Just like he gave his entire staff that year! Always such a generous and good looking guy that Wigward Stern.
Had Leslie west from mountain as the music group (like Paul Schafer)on his original TV show. Mississippi queen was Leslie's big hit. Leslie played Mississippi queen on the show every week
Epic! Legends in their prime. Laughed so hard, so many times. Caught the original. Don't rember enjoying it as much. Gaming the broadcasting system with relish. Hot dog, anyone?
Howard went from having some credibility to being filt garbage. That's why I don't watch him. I like Letterman, but Howard is not even in the same class of late night talk shows.
Does anybody have the skit where an SUNY student dared to eat a Taco Bell chalupa and blood came gushing out of his neck, and he started yelling that it burns?
Howard Stern is one of the most entertaining guests of all time. If it was my show I would have asked him if that guy was impaired in any way other than being drunk, mentally or in his nervous system or anything, and if the answer was yes I would have said, and not one of those guys thought it might be a good idea to hold him up while he was slowly tumbling over? Then I would have given the death sign and said we'll be right back.
Google Jeff the drunk Curro. He got into a car accident in his late teens or so, lost use of his arm. Many videos of him on RU-vid, he's one of Howard's wack pack.
And now in 2023 paying subscribers are getting less Howard for more money. He is only on air for three days a week Monday thru Wednesday, and he takes a large chunk of the year off on vacation including two months off over summer. He is literally on the Johnny Carson style of contract. Three shows a week for 37 weeks a year and a salary way above Carson's at almost $90 million a year.
WHY is it when howard goes on letterman he has to put on an act? like who gives a shit about oprah? or gayle king or whoever the hell he has to talk about like a jewish woman? how hard is it to sit there, act normal and answer questions...he always has to takeover the show it's draining, watch everytime stern is on letterman, he always has an agenda... and it's always so stupid, who gives a shit, he comes off like he's trying to act like he's cool, like he's in the presence of other famous ppl...if stern has an agent, he is failing him deeply
Compare this appearance to some of Stern’s in the 1990s. You can tell he has been in therapy, because he is very clearly, and intentionally forcing himself to listen when Dave is speaking.
But it did…. Once Howard married Beth, that hard edge just slowly died…. I really can’t even listen to the show anymore…. And I been listening since I graduated HS in 1992. It’s not the same as it was when he was killing it at K Rock, and the first 4-5 years at Sirius…
Stern is a vile, evil man. Willfully evil. A schoolyard bully who figured out a way to market it on a mass scale. He new that he was getting rich off of appealing to the cruel and destructive underbelly of human nature, and he encouraged others to behave the same way. A lot of what is wrong with society today can be traced right back to Stern and his warped sadism.
Definitely not a fan of “old school” Howard. Started listening to him in 2008. Anything prior IMO is garbage. Took him 28 years to be real. Now I love him. And have for the last 15 years.
