Let Vacation Begin. Who is listening today?
History of Howard Stern Act 2 replaying.
Artie was in Las Vegas this past weekend hosting the Miss Howard TV contest. Click here to read a review of the night.

Langford interviewed a guy named Jim Terry who wanted to sign high pitch Eric to play football. That seemed pretty damn funny.
The guy, The Direct Opposite, is still sending in love letters. He is now on the Blacklist. So if you are reading this pal, I don’t even see the Moderation notifications anymore. Congrats, you are the first one banned on SBG. You really accomplished something in life.
Love letters!?! what did this guy do?
sounds like the gorilla really bombed out in vegas, people walking out!! the opener was funnier!! damn, his schtik seems to be running thin with his fan base
i dont think we even would take him on the killers of comedy tour
im not listening due to the fact ive already listened to it 6 months ago. To me this is the lazy part from them. I dont mind listening to old episodes because it was over 4 years. I dont like hearing shows or programs that are quite new.
Despite all of Arties efforts to fail in life and destroy himself for some reason he’s an unmitigated success. His stand up blows, his movies blow, yet I love the guy on the show…..go figure…
I must agree that Artie is exponentially better on the HSS than all of his other ventures combined. I saw his standup at the Tower earlier in the year and I was happy with my ticket purchase (outside the venue for $25, box office was $65+) but it can’t compare. His bread and butter is bullshiting on the show.
Fuck Direct Opposite…Fuck the Cowboys.
I still love Beer League and enjoy Its the Whisky Talking.. i dont know why.
It’s hilarious how a guy who is a fan of Artie Lange,(and creates a site dedicated to him) crys at the first sign of getting his balls busted. Wah!!!
now THAT’S IRONY! Fiiiiiyyyyaaa!
now post my emails addresses again, pussy. wow, your mommy must have had to listen to your cryin ass on the phone this weekend.
quick artie fan, delete my post
haha this is funny and redonkulus.
Why does Artie have so much anger towards women? It is a serious problem. How is that comedy, just being an ahole? Marianne was correct on one of the wrap up shows. He needs to write some intelligent material that he can use outside of his shows, being an ahole is the hack comedy high school kids can do.
Wow AF-I wonder what tripped that guys trigger. As the Direct Opposite I don’t remember him being vicious. Glad you gave him the boot. “F” that guy.
I’m not listening today-I now have insurance companies to deal with since some jackhole rear-ending me on my bike yesterday. Am I missing anything worth listening to?
t’s hilarious how a guy who is a fan of Artie Lange,(and creates a site dedicated to him) crys at the first sign of getting his balls busted. Wah!!!
now THAT’S IRONY! Fiiiiiyyyyaaa!

Ugh, that totally fucking sucks. Were you hurt at all?!?!
I banned him already, then he went and used a different IP address to post the most recent outburst. Wow, what a smart guy. Sad that this is the only website that gave him any attention, so now he cant let it go.
Show is on vacation, History of HS Act 2. So i guess you arent missing much.
True that Artie heart. It is funny that he criticizes me for being “sensitive” but he is the one that can’t take the criticism (in the form of being blacklisted)
No-I didn’t get hurt at all. I didn’t lay it down or anything and was able to ride it out. I scared the shit outa the guy that hit me, though-I think he peed down both legs when I got off my bike and charged him, unleashing a tirade I’m sure he’ll have nightmares about. His excuse for hitting me? He was admiring my ass and when he looked up and realized the light changed he hit the gas and then hit me-that’s what he told the cops! Anyway, my bobtail fender is really bobbed now. Nothin’ like gettin’ hit by a truck to ruin a Sunday ride
If everyone ignores the jackoffs’ posts he’ll get bored and go somewhere else. You gotta be a real shithead to get banned from SFN, which is probably why he posts here now.
Not missin’ anything-I’ll tune in to Ellis on Faction later.
Are you serious!??! He was looking at your ass! LOL. Im glad you didn’t get hurt. And that is the exact reason I am too much of a pussy to get a bike. I think i’d love it but I don’t trust other drivers.
Now they aren’t even giving it any thought. Talk about phoning it in. At least before we got new specials. Now we get a whole week of this? They played it enough during the holidays I’d assume everyone who cared listened to at least most of it.
i’m not listening right now, but i thought it was supposed to be a “new” installment of the history. i don’t think howard is going to sign another contract at this rate. he just seems tired.
What is wrong with all of these women in the contest saying Artie is angry? Most bikini contests w celeb judges, especially comedians go that way. Are they just used to everyone kissing their ass because they are pretty, “like such as the Iraq…”
I don’t do those contests anymore but I would definitely prefer being heckled by Artie than what I endured – Riki Rachtman asking where I’m from and then asking if I could spell it – what a Z-list dickhead.
I think Artie’s standup material is and jokes are funny – maybe people are getting too PC these days.
I hate PC shit, …. but definitely like Windows more than Mac (rim shot… and the crowd boos)
Vacation again? That time of the year? Hell these guys are OUT all the time dude! Great…. Two weeks of wasted $’s
Work more – take less days off already!
Listen to some other talk shows on Sirius while they are away. There is some good stuff besides Howard.
^^^ Totally agree Sal. I do miss a couple morning shows cause I got Howard on too consistently.
Like what? I’ll bounce to Music stations but most of the talk I find on there sucks balls.
Im not listening to Sirius … well at the moment, im listening to CDs … but I listen to News Talk when im listening to radio other than Howard.
Ellis mate! He comes on a little late on the east coast but he’s a funny guy-I’ve started listening to him every afternoon-west coast 12 to 4. Other than that I listen to Octane or every once in a while one of the comedy channels. I’m not just payin’ for Stern-I knew his contract wasn’t forever and I doubt he’ll renew it so I check out other stuff on Sirius.
since when did this site become the Alpharaiders blog of her life..every day with an update on what she’s doing and her whereabouts…thats ENOUGHALLREADY
Alpha rider is a woman!?!? LMAO!!
Hell yea, she is all woman!
dude you guys must be new to the site since thats he M.O. We love ya AR. Show us your cans already
Actually Artie’s Heart is old school with this site, he predates Alpha, but he hasnt been on in a long time.
(.)(.)
Not you eyes
funny you dont this site going off “artie topic” but we hear daily updates on alpha’s life? doesnt really make sense to me
Its vacation. Not much to talk about anyways.
this shit goes on daily even when the show is on! i mean if your gonna complain when the chatter goes into SFN territory, what about when it turns into the AFN, as in Alpha Fan Network?
The site is on and off blocked by websense here. I have a Honda 1100 spirit have been riding a long time, I always find it interesting when a chick rides it bumps her up at least 2 pt’s.
all i know is that its rained 27 out of the 29 days in this friggin month and its going to rain all week. probably one of the worst starts of the summer ever.
The Direct Opposite reincarnated? Pretty sure I make the rules. If you dont like it, sorry. Alpha has done a lot for me personally and she is a good commentor.
I’m starting to agree with hackpack. enough with the daily update on your life alpha
just an observation of something that gets irritating after awhile..and the whole making rules thing is sounding a bit JFSC’ish..is caps not allowed here as well…haha
thank you gabba, im sure others probably agree but dont wish to rock the SBG boat
When did i talk about a CAPS rule? I was around way before JFSC lol. How dare you. HAHAH
i feel like ive subscribed to the alpharaiders twitter/twatter whatever the hell it is…but ill leave it at that, ive said my peace, back to Miserable Men i go
I think I’ll publish a “complaints” page, and you all can just go at it there.
I think savebabygorilla.com has finally jumped the shark.
I think my balls itch
I think my grandmother just rolled over in her grave.
See if anyone notices the change in the …..
Hi, Billy Mays here.
Shit, im more sad about Billy dying than Michael.
Three points
- artie’s best performance are on the stage that is the HSS – excellent comment whoever stated that earlier
- also agree this site includes way to much personal banter about alpha – I mean I care about the troops and all, but not on sbg, and your schedule means nothing to all of us, sorry but its true
- I don’t get that dude bashing af at all, but this world is made up of plenty of assholes, and this certainly is one of them!
You could always count on Billy to wake you from a nap! RIP loud guy….
if that beard was not colored than my name is Morgan Freeman.
Wherever I go all I hear is ‘Ben’ & ‘I’ll Be There’…Every store, every restaraunt, every fucking gas station employing an Arab…And now my neighbors retarded kid is doing the moonwalk with a white work glove in the street. Fuck me, listening to replays of Howard is better than that. I guess I will stay in this week…
“neighbors retarded kid is doing the moonwalk” WTF? Sounds like this kid needs to be beaten more.
Speaking of MJ, can all these sycophants please stop with the “we’re here to defend him” and “he must be recognized” commentary? First off, all due respect to his death, but in life, Mj was talented AND fucking weird!! Even if there had been no allegations of pedophilia, the dude was still very freaky! I mean there are actual freaks who said, “damn that michael jackson is a freak!”
Sorry, but I watched a bit of the BET awards last night – train wreck by the way – and some claimed MJ was never properly recognized while he was alive. Uh, what, what, what? The dude sold a bazillion records and won truck loads of grammies!
Nagger please! Hear that ka-ching? That’s the sound of the vultures flying over his estate…
I think it’s Artie who jumped the shark last weekend.
Artie’s too fat to jump anything
SBG – think your hater actually has a man crush on you. if he wasn’t a total douche, he could resist posting here. But since he loves you so much, I say c’mon douche post away. I’m always amused by losers who do nothing but hate and then can’t understand why their lives are such wrecks.
@Larry Sellers – Artie is so great on HSS (sometimes) and after visiting my imaginary therapist, I’m finally able to admit that I love “Dirty Work” but you are so right, his stand-up act is kinda weak at best. he’s much better (sometimes) on HSS.
@Sara – do you think we should get some $ back with all of the repeats? History of HS part 2 was fun when it played in December during that 2-week vaca. This is redonkulus, and i don’t really listen to the music on sirius so I hate that they are squeezing me for even more “royalties” — this reminds me of the phone co trick of saying the rate is $59.99 then they add all of the surcharges that the gov’t allows which really go to the company (not to the gov’t)… I once had Sprint service at $69.99 and the monthly total was $98 including surcharges.
@alpharaider – glad you are ok, would hate to lose you as part of trifecta #2 that started with Billy Mays. I’ll miss Billy’s loud voice but I’m glad I won’t be dreaming about oxiclean if I leave the TV on…
@HackPack – I understand that Artie’s jumps are really just trips downhill.
lol@MJ talk…someone’s going off topic…..and it’s not me woo hoo…..there is a lot of Alpha life talk here but it’s ok I guess….especially if she got an ass that will cause a car accident….me personally, I’m an “ass man” like that car Kramer was driving in Seinfeld.
Clearly the guy who wrote this article about BG in Vegas is a “fan”, so if he said about 100 people walked out then I suspect he was being nice and it was more like half the audience walking out. The backlash seems relentless on BG…….I hope he gets it together. He is a funny guy but the anger and need for attention is creepy.
btw, Elvis got a revisionist version of his story…..I dont see why MJ can’t….sorry AF..had to throw it in.
Ha – @DBJB – I had to re-read that last sentence to realize hehehe..
I’m sure there will be some sites devoted to the story that Michael Jackson faked his on death. I’m not starting the rumor, but I’m just saying….
anyone have the link to the last Miserable Men show when ELLIS owned Ralph the fag?!!
if you’re in NYC i hope you enjoyed today…..it’s raining all week
I am listening (clap/clap/clap) and I can see why (clap/clap/clap) everyone wants to (clap/clap/clap) relive the glory days of Stern (clap/clap/clap) from the 80’s and 90’s (clap/clap/clap). Wow- that is some annoying shit, I guess that is what had to be done in the prehistoric days of radio.
Its funny to listen to his act 23 years ago to see how it really hasn’t changed to now. I guess minus the railing against the FCC, but sam shit different decade, which I think is why he has stayed so successful for so many years minus the (clap/clap/clap) of course.
Boob Sweat, I could not agree more. The BET awards were fucked…..I now officially hate Jamie Foxx. He did his best to make the whole thing a racial deal was just pissing me off. In death we all tend to change the entire perception of the bad. MJ was an awesome performer, possibly the best of all time; HOWEVER, who dies 450 Million in debt, and is then lauded as a great businessman?
BI VAG, hahaha!! I noticed that this morning all the fucking clapping after everything, boy that Jackie was a comedic genius.
Alpha – some of us like your posts, fuck those other “DOUCHE” bags. How about this DONT FUCKING READ IT! or go to another site. I mean you actually have to do a voluntary action and READ, just don’t do it!!
and yes, Michael Jackson is a freakish pedophile, so there!
PS. Is Al Shaprton related to all black people? It seems he is involved in everyone’s personal business as soon as it hits the media.
OK, I’m done, sorry I missed most of the day.
DBBJ-you can google Ellis and it’s on his myspace page-I think that’s the one you’re talkin’ about.
Thanks Lint-at least I’m not like that ass-hat that’s being a jerkoff to AF.
It’s odd that I’m the only one to be targeted-almost all of us who have been posting here awhile go off into “personal world” sometimes, especially when it’s yet another vacation for the King of All Vacation Time and his crew. Truth is, I get bored and I spend a lot of time alone so sometimes I just like the interaction. Sorry. I’ll keep it to myself.
What are the odds of fat and hairy goin’ off the rails this time? On the wrap up show Thursday he sounded wired out of his balding head!
I used to love Artie but the put downs with his so called comedy are getting old. he can’t take shit and he passes it back as how much money he makes at shows. i think he is the typyical red neck new jersey fuck who say’s “faggot and homo” to get a laugh. i wish he would go back to uttering a few comments during the show. alpha you are alright. i have nothing agaisnt you.
Not listening this week or next. I thought there was way too much of the whore Jessica Hahn when I listened the first time around.
Yea gabba-he was nicer on herion! And I think everybody gets it-fatboy’s makin’ lots of scratch. GOOOOOD FOR YOOOUUUU, guinea pig. Now remember how to be funny and earn it. He was a little less obnoxious last week but some of his one-liners were groaners that lead to pin-droppin’ silence.
I’m not listening either-I did a little today but was immediately bored with Howard’s “I’m going to ruin NBC! I’m the funniest DJ ever” schtick. Two weeks of something that was already dished up cold only a couple of months ago really makes me wonder what Da Da Dumby’s been up to.
Artiefan…Beer League was funny, maybe because I live in Jersey and know most of the places it was shot.
But It’s the Whiskey Talkin? OMG does that suck ass. Not funny at all.
AR sorry you got hit on your bike but glad your ok. Happened to me a few years ago and did a lot of damage to my VTX 1800 R
This week has reminded why the show used to be funnier and edgier.
The routines were new and couldn’t be heard or seen anywhere else. It wasn’t the same stuff over and over again. Howard and Robin were more in touch with the world and their average listeners and not trapped inside their $800 bottle of wine sheltered realities. Plus, and probably the biggest reason, they were doing stuff that could at any moment get them in trouble with their bosses or the government. Now, there’s no risk of them crossing a line. As much as I enjoy a lot of the uncensored stuff on satellite, I wish they never left FM radio. There’s nothing shocking about Howard as a shock jock nowadays.
The Direct Opposite sent me an email this morning, trying to explain himself, blah blah, how he loves to stir up shit, and doesn’t need my shitty site, blah blah, and how im a pussy and no ability to take ball busting.
Pathetic.
SBG: Win – TDO: Loss
I am listening to week 3 of the sirius era. I don’t know what it is but I think the king of all blacks is one funny fucker.
TDO: Fuck him, Fuck the cowboys.
AF i think you should post that email for us to observe
“lmfao. i was having fun with it. you got all bent out of shape. i didn’t even get mad when you gave out my email, which is a dead address anyways, or i’d have messaged you from it. and this is just from another site. be a pussy and give it out, i don’t care. just because a site says they wont publish your email doesnt mean i’m stupid enough to believe it. i knew you were the kind of puss to do it. wah, i only allow people on my site that will suck my ass, wah! i enjoy seeing someone get easily upset. your site isnt important to me. i would check it out every now and again when on my phone at work. no loss to me. now go cry on your site about it some more. i gave you something to talk about on your dead site…..your welcome. hahahahahayour ability to take ball bustin is…-The Direct Opposite- of Artie Lange”
haha now that is some good shit…can he still view the website? just not post?
yea, he can still view. I figure he is you anyways
I can add a thing to completely block him from viewing, but I guess I shouldn’t have to. If he is a man of his word, then my site doesnt mean shit and therefore he shouldnt waste his time coming back.
And this is another reason i never believed in banning ppl from sites.
Of course you realize you’re still going out of your way to feed the troll by posting all that, right?
Let him go quietly into the good night…
haha not me, my beef was with alpha not you..
Of course I’m aware but he’s the one w/ no life if he keeps it up and his interaction will be the proof
What is the difference between ball busting and busting chops? Is ball busting something gay people do?
That’s HIGH-larious, AF! It’s pretty easy to talk shit when your not in someones’ face. What a little bitch.
You got that right Alpha. I may not be a well man with my disease but I am well armed.
I could not listen to Stern until 95 or 96; I am in the Detroit area and he did not come as an everyday show until that time period. I was definitely aware of him via E! channel shows. That being said I am glad he has always kind of changed what he does. In a way the show’s basic elements are the same, but you can’t do that for 25 years and not evolve. Personally, I am glad he seems out of touch, makes him more interesting. I would puke if he were acting like the “everyman” while making whatever millions he does.
Now, as for this trip down memory lane, if anyone STILL thinks Jackie should come back, oh boy!
I don’t have to suffer that way — I’ve still got the two last fresh shows in the can waiting… I shouldn’t have pigged out so much; almost two whole weeks to go. Thank goodness for NPR podcasts.
On the topic of the eponymous site, let’s hope the svelter BG makes it through the whole two weeks. If you ask me, listening to the Tuesday wrapup, he’s a little TOO ready to host raucous “Artie parties” for someone supposedly recovering from several distinct and massive addictions, though it’s not my business…
Oh, and if I have to suffer through one more braindead porn star interview!?>!??!?!?@KL#!)#)!)!)! At least Patty Hearst’s daughter has an interesting back story, but the other one was EXACTLY the template of every other god damned porn star interview they’ve ever conducted. I can’t stand it! Howard’s superpower is to make ANYONE interesting, but porn stars are his kryptonite!!
I have checked out of the Stern world until tomorrow. I don’t think I can take another replay of that Sternac bit or the gerbils. (clap/clap/clap)
I’m with you, Vagine-I tuned in this morning for about a half an hour. That was all I could take, especially since it was just played a couple of months ago. (clap/clap/clap-what the fuck was all the clapping about, anyway?)
Twat-I was sayin’ the same thing about BG-he was out of control on the wrap-up show. Almost sounded like the coke talkin’ to me…..
Robin’s Dad: I could not have said it better myself. Kudos.
In case anyone cares, The Smoking Gun (and Fark) are making a big deal out Ivy Supersonic taping a Bernie Madoff hearing. Why the hell CAN’T she?
http://www.fark.com/cgi/comments.pl?IDLink=4480343
in case no one covered it (didn’t read all the posts) Gary was asked about the clapping when they did the intro special last week – he said it wasn’t a sound effect it was just something they all did in the studio, not for any real reason.
Artie would probably say it was to keep everyone from stealing the money?
Good recall there, TwaTwa!
I actually liked the clapping. So much so that I do it in real life now and again. If you’re with some guys at a bar and a hot girl walks by, and 5 guys start clapping, it’s fantastic. It at least makes the girl acknowledge you before she ignores you for the rest of the night.
I actually like hearing the clapping in the old shows.. kind of a comradery in the studio when it happened.
I never though of it like that……
I’ve always thought of it as kind of a goof. Kinda like how “Hey Now” and “haaayyyooooo” aren’t Howard trying to have a catch phrase, but goofing on TV announcers. Of course Hey Now is actually a goof on a goof.
So when Howard would ask someone if they ever got a rim job, and the guest said yes, then everyone in studio would clap — it reminds me of those cheesy audiences for informercials that clap every time a stain is removed from the carpet. But that’s why I found it funny.
Wow–sorry for way overanalyzing the clapping but hey, the show’s off for 2 weeks. What are you gonna do?
Hate the clapping and hated Howard’s stupid drum.
Kinison just kicked ass from the grave, but shouldn’t they be playing Kinison & Gilbert doing the news with Robin [when Michael Jackson & Elton John did the Ryan White? funeral]. THAT was the best radio ever!!!!
I think post# 75 from robins dad nails it on the head for me. Well said. Unfortunately, like death and taxes, with time, change is also guaranteed. Whereas before they were working without a net, now if they screw up — well no such thing anymore. That element of danger, and howard’s constant bickering with bosses and the fcc, is totally gone, and that was a huge part of the former show. I never realized what a big dynamic this was, and what a difference this makes now. Also, I think due to the limited audience, he doesn’t get as many big name guests as he used to, which of course also added to the element of danger, like what will he ask…(Insert celeb here)???
However I will continue to listen til its all over, but I think artie should leave, and allow the show to breath again.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!
Honestly, I’m kind of surprised Howard made it at all. The WNBC stuff is really not that funny. I find myself turning off the radio when it comes on. The early KROCK stuff was better, but still not that funny. It must have been the times. It was totally different, I’ll give them that.
The constant clapping and Howard’s nasal voice are really annoying. I’m sorry, but Sam Kinison was overrated; just not funny, rather sad really. Dee Snyder is convinced he created the show – what a douche. I love when Fred or Gary comes on and contradicts what someone else said.
When Jackie appeared on the scene the show got better. Fred is great at sound effects, but not comedy. His sense of humor is too raw. Robin was less annoying and not nearly as elitist.
Just some of my thoughts for what it’s worth…
Wow, could you BE more wrong? Right down the line. Just wrong in every possible way.
He is right on a couple points…just a couple.
I like the history. As a new fan I love hearing the show though the years.
I’m watching paint dry-fascinating……….
AF, i was wondering if you wanted to come to my house warming party the 25th? If so let me know and ill email you the invite.
Howard seems too serious and mature nowadays, compared to the NBC days. Not his fault or the shows fault, that is just the way life is, you change.
Yeah Blue Iris’s Vagina. Sucked we did not get him here until 96. From what I remember though, a couple of Detroit area AM stations tried him on at night for a short period, before he came on WKRK.
Sorry dude, I’ll be in NC for my cousins wedding at that time. But thanks.
Yeah sorry I can’t make it either. Cousin’s bar mitzvah. Maybe next time? Have your people contact mine.
haha boob sweat you can come on the 11th instead.
I am scho schick of Howardsch lischp on the old tapesch, I have to turn it off scho I don’t schoot myschelf I wonder how he got rid of it?
I think his dentist got rid of it. If I remember correctly he got a voice and speech coach at some point.
How come nobody ever made fun of him?
Anyone know if BG is still alive?
Well, we wouldn’t know. His death would have been pushed out of the spotlight by Billy Mays
Yea, still a little stunned by that one.
I can still remember back in the day when David Carradine was all the rage.
Yes Sal we were kept in the dark for too long; I remember listening to the se douche bag’s “Drew and Mike” thinking they were funny until Howard came, and then it was like- wait a minute, I have heard this all before somewhere. Kind of funny how most of the stuff you hear/heard are all traceable back to Howard.
And for anyone STILL holding on to Jackie, just re-listen to the snappy one liners he was writing for Howard to crack on Ralph’s mother with…….um, yeah his career post-Howard proves what a comedic genius he was…..
Tis the season of death in the entertainment industry-Karl Malden just croaked.
lol @ the trashing of the past of Stern’s show. Tells me a lot about some of you….it’s almost as if “well I wasn’t a part of that time, so it sucks”. Kind of like the kids I hear saying “Kobe is better then MJ”. It’s cool..JACKIE SUCKS….I get it…….stockbrokers/metal drummers/fat NJ drug addicts are so much more creative.
As far as Howard’s Whiny voice, it’s common that people’s voices are higher and get lower due to confidence. In the beginning, Stern was nervous/excited about the radio, but once he hit his comfort zone , then his voice got deeper as it is now. Sort of like watching The Simpsons on re-runs, their voices are much higher when they first started out……
Regarding confidence, he’s also been with the trophy wife for most of the past decade. That helps, despite OUR personal feelings of her. But I would also gather the tape/media that those shows have been recorded on also reflect the sound quality, subtle differences, because the rest of the crew sound slightly “off” to me also. Oh, but I’m not really listening…ooops!
On jackie, I loved it when robin would tell a news story of a kid dying of cancer or something and then fred would play the jackie laughing soundbite. Always got me a good chuckle.
I messaged Artie, havent heard back yet. So maybe he didnt make it through Celeb Death week.
Holy shit, I was just listening to when they were making fun of Friday on the Morning Zoo in Philly, that was funny as shit, I almost drove off the road!!!
The Stern show did almost the exact same Friday on the Morning Zoo bit several months ago. I had to catch the rerun of it is was so funny.
Don’tBringBackJackie,
The stockbroker/metal drummer/fat NJ drug addict are in. Jokeman is out. Get over it.
Exactly. BBJ/DBBJ, to your point, and since you’re raising your pet issue yet again, you’re not going to get away with implying that people trash the old blonde hack because they didn’t live through him — TO THE CONTRARY. It’s exactly those of us who had to suffer through his appalling lack of talent who most rejoice that he’s relegated to deserving obscurity. “I wasn’t part of that time” my ass. The show didn’t suck then — but Jackie did.
(For those unfamiliar, he was rarely actually heard from — the often drawn Benji analogy — but on the few times they played a standup gig or TV special of his, it was unfailingly cricket-chirping and wince-inducing hackery and boredom. And somehow the laughs/chortles are ONLY funny when Fred plays them — it’s a mystery of the universe, and a further validation of Jackie’s own remarkable lack of humor or charisma.)
Everyone’s voice changes over time (and “circumstance” — through his past benders the Baby Gorilla has sounded at times like a groggy 90 year old gargling phlegm). And it’s funny to hear how Howard has changed but Robin remains a constant.
And by the way, on the Stern show it’s objective fact that stockbrokers/metal drummers/fat NJ drug addicts are so much more creative” than the hackman ever was. I was never a Sal fan before the “John’s Job” contest, and I concur that the phony phone calls can be a bit untiringly juvenile sometimes, but those guys can be funny and they are willing to work their asses off. Jackie proved he CAN’T be funny…. oh man I’ve gone and bitten on the bait this time.
I hate today’s “history.” I almost never turn off the show but it was awful….
morning everyone……lol @bait….I wasn’t the one who brought up opinions on Jackie….please don’t blame me..I was just voicing my own and I’m done with that. Yesterday, I bought some dvds/BR and saw Beer League for $5 new and $2 used . OUCH……
Anyone hear from BG? Despite his cranky, ego maniacal self , I hope he’s ok.
Well, I may check in again today but after that I’m off to enjoy the 3 DAY weekend, AF, ALPHA, TWATTER and the rest…….enjoy the weekend..be safe…healthy……and when you can’t take another burger/hot dog in your belly…take one more bite for the BABY GORILLA !!

On the intern show someone said that artie was plastered this weekend in vegas and had to be removed from poolside by security or something like that. I was doing something with sirius in background and heard them say something like that.
Two cops can’t save Artie from Rehab in Vegas-it sounds like the Gorilla Train is off the rails!
If this is true, we can no longer feel sorry for our baby gorilla, much less save him.
I think what baby gorilla needs is to be behind bars for a while. Instead of security escorting him out, they should have locked him up for drunk in public or disturbing the piece. You know he was yelling out racial drunken slurs, or derogatory comments to women.
Anyone who really believes that Fat boy has shaken the money is clueless. The fact that he’s telling a chick 15 years younger then him “he loves her” three weeks into a relationship is proof positive that he’s an emotional cripple. It also puts him in the fag pussy category he so lovingly deals out ad nausea. But lets not forget he’s a tough guy he was a long shorewoman 20+ years ago.
re: above comment = “ad nauseum” – couldn’t let that one go sorry.

Grammar is for fags.
Maybe it is time to put Baby Gorilla into some sort of retirement village. He could come stay with me. http://www.people.com/people/package/article/0,,20287787_20288466,00.html
jeeeeez sorry.
http://image.examiner.com/images/blog/wysiwyg/image/artielange this wasnt working, is anyone else having problems?
No need to apologize professor…j/k
and that was monkey..not money…
@AFHLH – you need to copy the rest of the link…it happened to me too and i thought there was a breaking story:)
haha good pic thanks cuppycake
Sigh. Artie Party indeed. What a douchebag that guy can be, continuing to destroy himself in the pursuit of fleeting, momentary happiness…
I guess the impenetrable Helicopter Mike isn’t along for this ride.
Good luck, Baby Gorilla — we like you in spite of yourself.
– B
You guys react pretty quick to hearsay.
heresay whats that?
Dude, AF was banging some girl at FunnyTimes Bar in poughkeepsie last night. She was butt ugly.
That’s not true. Your mother hates comedy clubs. hehe
kiddin.
A guy I know, knows someone who knows a person, that was talking to a friend at the airport. This friend spoke with his buddy, who knew a guy whose girlfriend is dating a security guard at the airport. The security guy was speaking to this chick who works in luggage claim, and she said she spoke with a taxi driver out front, who was speaking to a passerby, who stated that they spoke with their friend, who told them his cousin’s fiancee saw Artie getting on a plane that was going to Columbia.
See? That there’s comedy fact.
And more seriously, the question is who said it, and what was actually said.
“On the intern show someone said that artie was plastered this weekend in vegas and had to be removed from poolside by security or something like that.”
The problem here, of course, is that this would mean someone would have to intentionally listen to The Intern Show, which is about as daunting and unlikely a task as sitting through Joe Cunt.
Article concerning vegan diets and breaking bones!!! This article backs Howard when he said Robin’s diet caused her to break her arm.

there isnt much protein in her since jim florentine left
insert jackie “gulp” sound effect.
I’m headed to the beach for a couple days. Everyone have a great 4th of July weekend and please remember what makes America the greatest country in history. Our Freedoms, our people, our ideals, and Artie Lange. Fiiiiyaaaahhhh!
Later assholes…
hope the beach is nicer than massachusetts, aka the monsoon part of the U.S.
hooker ill be at your party, since im sure it will need some excitement, just give me directions
sure its right near the jersey pier, once you get to the edge, jump off and ill see ya down there.
Happy fourth of July bitches!!!! I have 10 Gallons of home brew beer , 5 gallons of hard lemonade, 5 gallons hard ice tea and a bunch of drunken retards for friends to go home to….call me fucked.
I think I might have to take a trip to jersey for that one.. lol
Headin’ for the Sierras to go white-water raftin’ and then gettin’ my drunik on! Have a safe weekend everybody!
But before I go for the weekend.
10-1 Artie boozed it up in vegas.
20-1 he cheated on ADRIAN!!!!!
30-1 He had a load shot on his chest.
1-1 He consumed over 25000 calories on average per day.
Something tells me I should have posted a 4th of July thread today.
Yep arties heart, his favorite whore is in Vegas-I doubt he was able to resist her charm ;-o
I think everyone owes Dee Snider a big thank you as he was the one who figured out that comedians on the radio=funny. Wow, what an innovator he was. My only question is this; unless he is just lucky, if Dee is such a visionary why did he have to beg Howie for airtime. Surely a genius of Dee’s caliber would have figured something out on his own.
Jackie is awesome, through every old replay I listen to makes me happy that he turned down the money eight years ago!
keep this thread until the end of the 4th weekend and start a new one monday in protest of these shitty replays of replays.
The shittiest replays of all replays. OK, so there are literally 20 years of taped shows, and they STILL only manage to play the same bits of shows over and over?
Totally unrelated. According to dane cook, what do you call a female equivalent of a cock blocker? You know, a chick that prevents another chick from getting laid?
Twat Swatter
HAHAHAAA-if ever single again I will remember this pearl of wisdom!
lots of posts to catch up on, so since I’m lazy I missed many of the ones near the end…
I think I stated it pretty well when I said:
SBG – think your hater actually has a man crush on you. if he wasn’t a total douche, he could resist posting here. But since he loves you so much, I say c’mon douche post away. I’m always amused by losers who do nothing but hate and then can’t understand why their lives are such wrecks.
On Al Sharpton, am I the only person who remembers that he was the asshole that was involved in the Tawana Brawley fake rape case? I don’t care if he protests something I agree with, he’s a bandwagon-jumping-on piece of trash with no real values. He never apologized for his Tawana Brawley involvement and is a total douche. Although I supported Obama during the election, he’s turned into Bush Jr’s Jr. One thing I’m happy about with Obama being in office — no more Jesse Jackson. I have enough of his rhymes recorded to remix for years to come…

Since Howard’s been off this week, I’ve slept in every morning — delaying my work until the sun is good and warm. Here’s a little info about Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag Pratt for those who miss the dishing:

LONG LIVE SBG!
Whoops – I missed some good stuff there in those last comments.
Nothing makes me like Artie on the show more than hearing the Jackie shows. I’m so glad he quit. Hopefully Artie comes back funny and not just rude.
Doesn’t anyone else agree that he’s a little too mean to Beet and Gary the Retard?
Not sure about BJ, but with Gary the R. it’s VERY clearly an act on Artie’s part. He absolutely is NOT being in any way sincere when he says “HEY RETAHD.” He kind of explained this on NPR.
Though with Eric The Worthless Piece of Shit, I kind of hope he’s NOT kidding…
Hmm, I haven’t been listening to this week’s repeats, but maybe it’s no coincidence that I indifferently bailed on the HOHSP2 the last time they played it. It didn’t seem to live up the first series at all; more like a bunch of repeats with minimal uninspired bumpers…
What do we have to not listen to next week? Are they replaying the same damn thing?
I’m trying to dig up info on the baby in Vegas-I know some guys that work security in the Hard Rock. They may not have had contact with him but will probably know who did, if anything happened at all. One of the interns on the Intern Show could have just been crackin’ wise for effect.
I dunno, though, he was a madman on the Wrap Up Show before he left-reminded me of a teenager about to do something behind mom and dads’ backs!
I am jumping in here late, but i have to comment. I get it that this gig is mentally and physcially exhausting to Howard and all the key players on the show so I don’t begrudge them their vacation time…. or even the Friday’s off. Still, wtf is the deal with repeating a repeat (of the History of Howard Part II) that we all heard barely 6 months ago. I love repeats, but not repeats I heard so recently. I actually love it when I have time to listen on Sundays and catch Mastertape Theater, and, obviously, they’ve got hundred and hundreds of classic and hysterical old shows of that caliber. Why not crack out some of them for the long summer vacation. For the newer fans, it would be a chance to REALLY hear how the old show sounded (rather than by hearing short, selected bits with narration in the context of “History of….”). Also, for us old farts, it would be a chance to relive some old (and very good) memories.
Honestly, I think it would be cool to hear a couple of weeks of Jackie-era shows and then, when the gang returns, listen to a rested and relaxed Howard, Robin, Artie, etc. in the Sirius-era and really compare. I think that would be a win-win deal without forcing a 6-month old production on us.
Heck, if and when Howard does finally call it quits, I hope they keep some kind of Howard channel that just plays old shows. I am not saying I’d listen as much as I do to the news shows, but I would definitely listen quite a bit…. and costs (beside whatever Howard would demand in payment) would be minimal. Set and forget it.
I think the answer to your question is best summed up by a blogger at another site:
“Lay-Z Tim.”
That’s his regular name there.
They appear to have no incentive to produce fresh shows (whether Howard’s on OR off). On the other hand and in fairness, since they don’t allow downloads and haven’t repeated it in a while, it could be argued that it makes a sort of sense to run HOHS2 again for those who missed it.
Thursdays show was the only entertaining show, IMO. The rest of the week sucked!!!! I don’t know how I’m going to survive the upcoming work week with more HOHS2. Its so boring. Why can’t they play a day or a week of all the wacky game shows such as Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf playing Baba Booey in Rock n Roll Jeopardy!
Yeah, as I said the HOHS1 was much better for some reason; I gather they put more time into it, especially vis a vis input from the main players. The second series plays more like an average rerun; the excerpts go on too long.
Wow, I just listened to Day (3?) and you folks weren’t kidding — Dee Snider really DOES claim credit for the whole damn show! He made the groundbreaking suggestion that comedians… might be funny! Then he was solely responsible for creating Howard’s famed Louis IV look for a decade! He was Ralph before there was a Ralph! Tool.
WOOT! Taking my no-greencard having Filipino chicky to my parents, she made a mess of food and we are going to gorge ourselves in celebration of Independence Day…Its how the forefathers would have wanted it.
Havent listened to Howard Sternum all week and am curious with all the celebrities dying recently, been wonderin how our chunkey monkey is doing whoopin it up in Las Vegas…Hope he isnt boozing, whorin and generally fucking up his newfound relationship. Ah hell, im just jealous.
Oh shit, I gotta go, the retarded kid from next door is lighting off fireworks early…How on earth did his parents let him have matches…BASTOS!
Iwannabang…, I agree with you wholeheartedly. They could, for example, easily kill a day (or even a few days), but doing a Hank retrospective, starting from his first appearance to, sadly, his demise. Heck, do a wack pack week. One day of Hank, one of Fred the Elephant Boy, one of Crackhead Bob, etc., etc. If it is a money thing (and with the stock sitting under $1 for so long, expenses are certainly on everybody’s mind to some extent), this kind of thing wouldn’t cost much of anything. The “tapes” exist and are well-indexed so have an intern pull them, and let Richard and Sal (both of whom would kill for air time) serve as “hosts” (i.e. have them do the narration between clips). Viola. Problem solved for no more than a few pennies and in a way that doesn’t alienate any listeners.
Interesting idea. All kinds of people would kill for airtime, and yet “Lay Z Tim” never puts on anything interesting. His most innovative moment came when Howard told him to leave Reilly Martin on the air, and he did what he was told.
FeFi – the spirit of Artie would definitely love to see a picture of that girlfriend…
TwaTwa – gotta love me some Riley Martin. One of my favorite calls is the “hello, Thomas” call.
Run History on 100 and run old, complete, terrestial shows on 101. Listeners can choose which part of Howard history they want to hear.
lmao thats a funny DVD cover haha
