Mark my words: If I was as rich as Howard, I'd wear pajama pants every goddamned day and tell anyone who didn't like it to kiss my white rear end.

They're both in PJs like they would be on, say, Christmas morning. It's not an outlandish concept.

He had fat sucked out of his neck to get rid of his weird skinny-guy double chin.

Poor Dave Attell. He's one of my all time favorite comedians and he went bankrupt trying to bankroll that Dave's Old Porn show on Showtime. I got to see him live here in Albany a few years ago, it was great.

He probably shouldn't have spent his own money to basically make a youtube level show. If only he did that show on the internet or got somebody else to pay for it. Maybe he was just expecting Howard 103 to pick it up since they would need so much content anyway.

I've been driving in a rental car on a business trip, and thankfully it has a full Sirius XM set up, including Howard. I've only used the streaming for the last few years, so it's been weird to use the old Sirius hardware again.

1. Holy poo poo, are they stepping on the satellite broadcasts! H101 always sounded slightly more digitally compressed, but now both H100 and H101 sound like total poo poo. A very tinny sound with narrow dynamic range, and horrible audio artifacts that remind me of old RealPlayer streams.

2. Service interruptions a plenty. Drive under/near anything, and the signal goes out (I seem to remember the XM hardware being better about this... so why are they still making new cars with the old Sirius hardware?). As Chris Rock once said, "Oh poo poo, there's a cloud! No Howard for me today."

It's kind of hard to believe how much better 4G streaming is then the old satellite system.

That said, Howard 101 has been playing some gold. The other day I heard a great Gilbert segment that had me laughing myself silly. And yesterday, they played a bit from 1988 where this bitch radio columnist from the Daily News was attacking Howard for his "Negligee and Underpants Party" PPV special. It was a great window in time to when the "mainstream radio press" not only existed, but felt that they could simply dismiss Howard as a big nothing. The level of smug arrogance was astonishing. And the hypocrisy of reviewing his show while claiming to have not seen it!

I believe they stopped going when the mobbed-up owners of the club finally got some legal attention, and Lonnie (the guy who was their liaison) moved to some other strip club.

Looks like Scores is still around, though: http://nypost.com/2014/04/22/i-was-drugged-doctor-refuses-to-pay-135k-strip-club-bill/

Lonnie moved to Rick's and they went with him. By then or shortly thereafter that part of Howard's life ended and he started dating Beth and went back to the straight and narrow. Ronnie still lives there, though, as far as I know.

I've heard this one. Will's side makes a hell of a lot of sense unless you're married and have kids and realize that poo poo isn't easy and there are more important things than caring if people in the back office think you're a pussy.

When we briefly had it our new car it reminded me of the low quality MP3's Id download in the late 90's-2000 era. Souded like 8 or 16 bit.

Sirius was a much better service before the FCC stepping in and neutered their receivers/transmitters. One of the reasons I discontinued my service back in 2006 was the abysmal reception I was getting on the replacement sportster they sent me after the first generation one I had died.

Satellite Radio was only a good idea for a very short period of time. Modern smart phones make the whole idea totally obsolete. Just the thought of launching billion dollar satellites so a few million people can listen to a few hundred 64kbps audio streams is ludicrous.

Yeah, even iTunes gives you the ability to create automated playlists by punching in a few of your favorite songs. Its not as good as having an actual human being curate the list, but then, I'm pretty sure Sirius hasn't had real people running the music channels for years.

This might be one of the darkest but funniest things I've seen from the Stern Show. A crippled woman who was shot in the head by her ex-boyfriend - who still has the shrapnel of a hollowpoint in her skull - is trying to get breast implants so she gets nude and Howard gets her to deep throat a banana. When she shows her current boobs Robin starts crying with laughter.
