I was thinking back to the show they did honoring Hank after his death the other day. It may be one of my favorite single Stern shows ever. It was very funny, and very touching. Everything from the widow Goodstein, there reminiscences of previous Hank appearances, right down to Robin breaking down crying when Howard was singing "You'll Never Walk Alone"... It was a great show.

They show may not be what it used to be, but goddamn if Hank isn't that one thing I miss the most.

If you guys had to try to narrow it down to a single favorite show, what would it be?

When a caller told Howard that Fred and his wife had had a fight at the Rainbow Room; that was a good show.

My vote, too.

When I worked as a bouncer in college, I noticed that all the strippers had a list of phrases they would use to gently reject customers while still getting them to have hope and buy dances.

"Well, hon...you never know! You never know..."

I bring this up because BOTH Diana Degarmo and that chick on Playboy radio used the phrase on Eric when he was trying to barnacle on to them, asking for a dinner date or to be added on myspace or something.

I hope Eric lives well into his 70's :allears:

What do you think are the chances that Sal will write a tell-all after Howard is done for good?

He's a pretty big scumbag; I could see him trying to cash in once he realizes that he's basically unemployable

I'm thinking he would be sued out of existence -- I'm sure Howard makes people sign monstrous non-disclosure agreements that have penalty clauses lasting until the end of time.

They talked a great deal about an upcoming in-studio performance during the late 6:00 hour today.

I question if they ever crossed paths as when Richard was really active in Iced Earth and Death it was well past when Metallica hit it big but there's no way Hetfield, Hammett, and Ulrich aren't aware of who those bands are so I imagine if Richard were to meet them and just drop that in it's an instant-credibility thing for him in their eyes.

I think this is a little like how Mike Judge talked about how much he loved Richard's work the last time he was on the show. It was a great little moment between the two that not even Howard's bitterness could ruin.

She was "acting" in a "play" called "Tony and Tina's Wedding", where she played a nun who made out with some guy. Fred was not happy with this, and Howard was very supportive of Fred (read: Howard stirred the poo poo like nobody's business). Fred seemed like he was on the verge of divorce for a long time.

They brought him into the studio a week or two later. Fred was pissed.

Although not as pissed as when they had his wife in to "rehearse" her part and Stuttering John offered to play the role of the guy she makes out with.

Stuttering John has to be the most universally hated staffer (current or former) in the history of the show, right? Every time they used to play the "Who's the biggest scumbag?" or "Who do you hate most?" game, he'd always be #1 on like, 5 different answer sheets.

I actually just recently saw Howard's interview with Lars from 2011 or 2012, and Richard comes in to be a fanboy. Lars didn't know him, but did say that he definitely knew of Iced Earth and Death.

Judge actually did two shoutouts during that new Beavis and Butthead season.

A zero-point-zero reference:

And at one point, Beavis says "Charred Walls of the Damned", which is the name of Richard's band.
