I liked Sussi's(sp?) response back to Howard about all of his biking bashing.


If Sussi is the guy who was putting off college to bike around the world, then Howard was 100% right in making fun of him and biking. Bikers are second only to motorcycles as the biggest nuisance on the road and putting off college to ride around on a child's toy is just stupid.

I believe he went to college, and before he settled down in with his girl he wanted to do this bike thing. I'm pretty sure his last time in studio he said he felt like he was in a rut, and that there was literally no advancement as far as his current position was concerned.

I know nothing about the entertainment industry, but really, how far can someone go as a lighting guy? And on a radio show to boot.

Howard has a really weird hang-up about people leaving his show, even if they are just technical and not talent.

Ding, Ding!

He's such a nut that he feels personally insulted when someone leaves his show their job. I worked for someone exactly like that. It was weird. he paid everyone nothing and treated everyone like poo poo but no matter how much notice or for what reason, or how good of an employee it was, everyone who resigned was immediately asked to leave and basically blacklisted from ever coming back.

The funny thing? People he fired were routinely brought back multiple times. :laugh:

Howard has really been on a tear lately about that idealistic American working man and how if you don't work (according to his parameters) then you're a bum.

He's starting to sound like a grandfather. Now his kids need to just get pregnant.

I didn't think I had to make the distinction between someone using a bicycle for transportation and the people who dress up in neon body stockings and ride five across down the road who treat them like toys. But there you go.

He wasn't on the main show exactly, it was just a Lisa G phone news interview spot.

But he said he was aware that Stern was bashing him about the bike/farming thing, and countered that Howard is just jealous that he has nothing that he really enjoys in life and that he is going to die a bitter old man surrounded by his money. (exact words)

A lot of people get so excited when something remotely negative is said about Howard that they'll always try to make into some EPIC BURN!!! Like how they built up the Dierdre Imus/Beth O guy who used to call in, acting like Howard was bedeviled and utterly flummoxed by him or something. His usual "how dare you..." that he says jokingly in response to any criticism all of the sudden becomes "HOW DARE YOU!?!". It makes them happy.

I think it was the content. The voice probably made it worse.

Seriously, the book was really boring. Gary's life outside of the show isn't interesting enough to warrant a book. Having a crazy mom doesn't make an interesting book, as "told" by Gary at least.

Gary is a bore as a person, so it makes sense the book would be boring.

Ya Gary's book was pretty boring.
The 2 main stories that carried the book, his brothers death and his mothers depression, were nothing new to most people who picked it up.
I think the high sales were mainly caused by people thinking it was going to give some inside info about Stern and the show in general.
Imagine the disappointment when they opened it up and found a list of Gary's favorite songs to play on a jukebox.

Speaking of audio books, everyone needs to grab Adams book "In 50 years we will all be chicks." The book is good, but the audio book is 1000x better.
