Wow. So that's what his hair looks like when it's not dyed. I don't know why he's obsessed with having jet black hair. It doesn't look awful at all. Of course he's going to have gray. He's pushing 60.

I think I was about 20 when I noticed I had a few gray hairs. I have no idea why he goes on rants about how his hair is still jet black without dyeing it. It's every bit as conspicuous as when he used to rant about not having any plastic surgery.

Of course once he owned up to that in the confession game, everyone in the studio admitted they were just playing along the whole time and it was a lame confession.

I am 38 and just had my 20 year high school reunion. Me and one other guy were not bald. He was gray and I have the odd gray hair here and there. Hell...I would say even Beth is getting a few grays here and there between visits to her hairdresser.

It's so funny how much he ties his self-worth to his hair. Like when the Breaking Bad guy was on, Howard asked him how completely horrible and emasculating it is to shave his head for the role and he was like "uh what? no I don't care."

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.

He's always had lovely self-esteem with regards to his physical appearance so how he treats his hair isn't shocking. He has a very self-deprecating view of himself(the nose, small dick, huge Adam's apple, etc) along with a dad who is very bald so it's to be expected that the one great thing about his looks that both he and others really like is the thing he ties most to his esteem and masculinity.

I too am 38 and I haven't got a single grey hair, and my hairline in my new passport photo matches where it was in the passport photo from 10 years ago. My wife inspected my head the other day and was a bit surprised to find zero evidence of greying or other follicular deficiency.

It's lucky genetics, I don't doubt at all that Howard has very few greys/isn't bald at his age. My mother's almost 70 and is just barely starting to go salt & pepper (her hair is dark black and extremely thick and she's never colored it as long as I've been alive.)

I don't get what I'm seeing with Medicated Pete's hair. He's had hair transplants done which is why he's got that line of scalp, I get that - but he's also got fake hair implanted in the front?

I didn't even notice that line. So I guess he had two awful hair transplants done. Poor guy.

If you didn't watch that Pete special on HTV where they go to his house, do it now. It's so amazingly sad.

Holiday shuffle owns. I wish they'd stop producing those godawful specials (fight week a shining exception) and focus entirely on themed shuffles. The way they play little one-off bits and caller series' from several weeks of shows is the best.

I actually like Stern Show Shuffle. If my radio wasn't somehow working without a sub, I'd pay for it just to listen to Shuffle. I don't know which guys make the compilations, but they do a pretty good job. It's a good range of old stuff from WNBC and WKRK. I didn't listen to the show in those days as no stations here carried it, so it's great for me to hear old bits and stuff.

Time to order people around and make threats: Howard is the boss.

Time to give things to the employees: Howard is not the boss.

Hah, that's actually a perfect way of putting it. I was re-listening to the whole "Too Many Plugs" saga and that's a prime example. It's Tim's job to approve all plugs on the air but apparently Howard has the authority to make Baba Booey do it instead (but he's totally not the boss guys, his name isn't on the checks!)

This was doubly great because they all acted like he was a complete idiot as if, had the same situation happened to them, they wouldn't have been all "OH GOD EVERYONE WAS RIGHT THE WORLD IS ENDING"

Howard is so obsessed with smells in public bathrooms. I mean, seriously, it's a bathroom. If someone needs to take a poo poo, where else are the going to do it? I think the only way Howard would be comfortable with it would be if the stall is hermetically sealed and shot into space once you're done.

I kick myself for not doing this pretty often! I bought 250 shares at $1.91 right before they announced the merger with XM and then it tanked. It's only gotten back up to break-even (and actually profitable now) in the last year or so. I remember looking at it when it was down around 10 cents a share and thinking "I should just buy $500 worth and see what happens." Would've been worth $15k today if I'd done that at 10 cents a share :(

Apparently Ronnie washes his rear end out in a regular sink after every dump. That is beyond baffling to me. Is it really that hard to clean yourself properly with toilet paper?

Yeah, but the attitude in the studio wasn't that this was overkill, but that he was crazy for not just showering again. Stern's dump neuroses have completely infected everyone on that show.

I wish I had links, but dig through the archives if you want and look for GBS poop threads. There's quite a few goons who go through bizarre making GBS threads rituals including showers, getting completely naked before pooping, and other crazy stuff.
