I feel like Howard and Fred were absolutely right, even if it bummed me out.

It's like the first rule of snake-oil salesmanship. 1. Identify a "problem" 2. Define a solution (need not actually work) 3. Convince people they have the problem 4. Sell them your solution 5. Profit (I know there's no ??? phase, that phase is for actual products)

I'm in the "hate to agree with them" pile as well. I guess I have to wish for anyone to fill the Artie chair rather than Artie coming back. I'd see a potential Artie studio visit going 2 ways. 1) A whitewashed interview about "A dark place" and how the doctors are "Great guys" and "big fans of the show" and they help on his road to recovery. Then he'll be rushed out of the studio with well wishes and not mentioned again for 12 months. 2) The interview from above, but with callers. The first one is Yucko, making a lovely "Stab yourself" joke, next up are 3 seperate callers who think they'll be funny by opening the call with "Waaaaahhh!" Any serious discussion of Artie's problem would have to address the ~15 months where Artie was irritable, sleeping, violent or absent while Howard took no notice and admonished everything with "Its great when Artie is here and we really like him being part of the show" Thank you to whoever posted the "Artie Lange Addiction Saga" in the last thread. The guy is annoying and thinks he's a Hot Jock, but the concentration of content in 6 MP3s is amazing. Listening to it and listening to the current shows are a stark contrast.

Artie was a fantastic addition to the show and made it listenable for me. I can barely stand it anymore, and aside from a few moments now and then, I think the show is just about done for. Everything has a life cycle and Howard knows he's on the way out - he's not as relevant as he once was, unfortunately. Moving to Sirius gave him a ton of freedom and the first few years there were amazing, but I think that after a while, the guests began to dry up as publicists looked at Sirius bookings as low return on investment. You have X hours, and Howard Stern has, at most, 1/10th the reach he used to have (more realistically 1/20th or lower). He's aging along with his fanbase - which used to be, say, 15 to 50 year olds, and now has got to be 24 to 60 year olds. Can you imagine a modern-day 15 year old listening to Howard's show today? What the hell would he find interesting? Richard and Sal, that's probably it. Anyway, it's depressing and kind of sad, and I still listen when something interesting happens, but mostly when I listen to the show I feel the same way I do when I go back to the town where I grew up and talk to my high school buddies. It's fun, kind of familiar, but a lot of them are doing the same kind of thing they've always done, and are content working at the same place they've worked since then, even though it's been 15 years. When one of the smartest guys you knew in high school tells you he's excited because the Barnes & Noble where he works just promoted him and he makes $48K/year now, you feel kind of good for him but sad at the same time. So much potential wasted. Oh well, the Howard Stern show was legendary, it changed the face of radio, and even in its current form it's better than just about any other radio show on the planet, but it's hard to compare it to the heydays of the 90s/early 2000s.

Ok so in regards to not replaying the show this afternoon. Currently, with no show to put on at 3pm, they have put on the "tapes" programming. Stern Spotlight: Stuttering John is this week. It was advertised last week that it was airing this week, so it has nothing to do with anything mentioned on today's show. The H101 schedule is Scottie till 9am, west coast feed from 9am until 2pm. Some days 2pm is SFRT till 3pm. Then 3pm to 7pm is the current programming of tapes specials. 7pm-8pm is specialty programs and then Scottie at 8pm.

I am not gonna lie, I would listen to this every single day. That was loving incredible. Best hour outside of the original T-O-P-L-E-S-S call this month. Just e-mailed sternshow@howardstern.com to beg them to make this a weekly show. I said to give them Bubba's slot! Ribsauce fucked around with this message at 01:01 on Mar 22, 2011 |

I usually keep my mouth shut when people tell me about their wacky diets or health ideas. However, an acquaintance of mine told me that she gave her kids unpasteurized milk (followed by some bullshit explanation). I flipped my lid and verbally unloaded on her why she was crazy and how she wasn't fit to be a parent. I feel bad about it, but she did stop giving to it her kids. This is the same person who owns a book on how to pick the gender of an unborn child.

There are some wacky ideas out there about pasteurized foods, but none of it has any real scientific data to back it up. My local town that has a pretty strong hippie, natural food community has a few "farms" who have actually been busted by the FDA for selling unpasteurized milk. Its become a pretty large black market in some cities. Ughh, Sorry Robin, but "The Next Three Days" sucked and has generally bad reviews across the board.

I would try cheese made from it due to alleged flavor reasons, but you really don't want to risk children, whose immune systems aren't as strong, with potential bacterial poisoning. Especially when you have no clue about the cleanliness of these black market operations. edit - "Milk creates mucus in the body." "Why do you think you have fungus? Because you drink milk."
