(I quit listening to the Stern show earlier this year, cold turkey.) Does anybody know if Howard's had anything to say about the Penn State child-molesting business? I remember hearing about how Beth's brothers went to Penn State and they loved "Joepa" and that kind of thing; was wondering if that came up.

Thanks.

About what you'd expect. They did a hypothetical situation where Robin walked in on Jason Kaplan molesting a little boy and decided that she'd be wrong to not go to the police, also why was she in the men's showers. Said it was obviously devastating to Beth and anyone close with Penn State.

e: Hadn't heard the morning's show when I posted this, the first 20 minutes were all about the whole Sandusky/Joepa thing. He said all the people who were holding candlelight vigils or holding up "We love you Joe!" signs at the Penn State games were complete loons, and goofed on all the details coming from the case, like how Sandusky had a rock thrown through his window which overlooks an elementary school.

Howard just announced they're doing 4-days a week in December (adding Thursday back). Do they usually take 2 weeks off for Christmas?

Will they be in the week of the 19th? If not, they will be off the week before which is way over two weeks. Is the 4-day a week thing in response to that?

My guess is that they're out the week of the 19th for a 2-week vacation. So yeah, the Thursday thing is probably a response to only working 6 days the whole month. He kind of threw out the comment that it was for all the people that complain about his schedule when he announced it today (which wasn't even done as a big announcement, just something mentioned during conversation).

I thought nothing could make me nostalgic for the days of "You see Robin...theres this SIM card thing, and I'm going to revolutionize..."

And then I heard cat chat with Hamptons Howie. Seriously? A show that once had a tickle chair and a robo spanker has become "...And my cat Walter, he has such personality, I just love cats.."

During the interview with Beth she let slip that America's Got Talent has already given Howard a proposed schedule for the show so he's definitely in talks for that job. The American Idol thing was all rumors and speculation but it seems like this one is for real.

Did Beth's entire personality come off as extremely.. cloying and desperate? She's so in need of validation that when Howard said "oh yeah so the wildlife center approached us with making a calend--" Beth cuts in "Actually it was *my* idea since you were photographing me every second, any way."

Yikes.

This is the truth. I cancelled when Artie left and I don't miss it one bit. I get my Stern fix from this thread and Marksfriggin. Music is everywhere nowadays with Pandora, Spotify, etc. Save your money and cancel.

Plus you can just download the Artie show on put that on your ipod or whatever.

Yesterday she was convinced you could be President for more than two terms as long as they weren't consecutive.

Also when she first reported the Paterno thing a week ago, it sounded like she was literally reading the article for the first time as she was saying it.

"This thing happened at Penn State...uh...the coach there is under fire for...um...there was another coach that was accused of doing something with kids..."

I had something like this happen. When I bought a new car it had XM in dash and they kept charging me for the Sportster I had previously. It was just a couple months, but it was of course the principle of the matter.

This happens literally everyday. It sounds like papers are rustling during the news segment and she is always trying to get poo poo together. All you need is a piece of paper with the article printed on it, highlighted with any interesting facts that the audience might be interested in. It's not a hard job. For someone who only has one task and that's to give the news, she really isn't doing a very good job of it.

Keep in mind Robin "prepares" for the news each day during the show. It takes her 3 hours to prepare for 20 minutes worth of news.

As soon as I heard Beth was on the show today I changed the channel to music. He's become Imus in every possible way.

What are you talking about? When she is 50 that 21 year old hunk she has been interested in will totally change his mind, love cats and mildly inoffensive humor and be interested in having one a month, boring sex with her when she feels like it.

Or footage from when Howard ripped on the news footage of him shaving his neckbeard.

I reached for the dial when I started to hear the replay of Chaz in studio. I leave work at 4PM PST though and there isnt a hell of a lot else on. I gave it a shot and it was mildly interesting. He was on a top reality show, generated a lot of mainstream controversy/buzz, so I actually think this is a pretty big get for an interview.

The ~40 minutes of it that I heard didnt center too much around DWTS, covered a lot of interesting things about Chaz's upbringing, and handled the gender transition pretty well. I even thought about the thread when I got home, I have something that isnt completely hateful towards the show to post.
