I predict a sanitized Howard's return to terrestrial radio. PS how sickening was it to hear Sarah Silverman lecture the audience about her newfound political correctness? Finndo fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Nov 3, 2015 |

Finndo posted:I predict a sanitized Howard's return to terrestrial radio. Nah. I think he'll stay at Sirius, but cut hours back a lot in order to do a Howard Stern Interview Show like Larry King. He'd have the listeners, it wouldn't require much change, and if he did it via ISBN, he could just stay in Florida. In an ideal world, he and the team would also put up the old Howard TV episodes on Netflix or YouTube. Hell, put the new interviews up there weekly.

Does anybody actually like interview shows?

The Human Crouton posted:Does anybody actually like interview shows? They're hit or miss for me. I loved listening to Tina Fey go off about how Paris Hilton was a horrible SNL guest. I want stuff like that. Ok, so I'm listening to the 30 minute clip of Howard revisiting some classic R&S prank calls, and they bring up the fact that Richard got in trouble when he was younger for making prank calls in his hometown, and Howard's reacting like he's never heard it before. I know he has a lot of stuff happen on the show over the years, and I can just pull up any clip on youtube whenever I want and listen to it as if it just happened, but he didn't even say 'Ohhh, I remember this'. Same with when Eric, after 'In Plain Sight', mentions 'American Dreams', and Howard just has no clue what he's talking about. Like... really? He also used to constantly mention, each time as if it was the first, how Sour Shoes used to follow him around and bother him. I think the last time he mentioned it was during the SS vs Langford string of calls. It's kind of insane how bad Howard's memory of his own show seems to be, but then again, like I said, a lot has happened. Who knows how I'd handle the same situation. And yes, I know I've brought up the Sour Shoes mentions before. EDIT: Also, godDAMN do I want to see Richard and Sal's 15-page long list of dirty names. I mean, could we even, as a collective bunch of thread posters, come up with more than, say, 50? Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 18:53 on Nov 3, 2015 |

He doesn't care; he's thinking about "charity" fundraisers or some stupid poo poo like that.

The Human Crouton posted:Does anybody actually like interview shows? They are incredibly profitable and surprisingly popular. There is a reason why the Tonight Show has been on the air since 1954. The super successful stuff in the last couple of decades has been the daytime/afternoon talk shows most notably Rosie and Ellen. Very light comedy along with big stars having softball interviews has been the recipe for success there. Hell, it even worked for Leno in late night. Now a straight interview show ala Larry King is not as popular. They do get ratings for big exclusives for big news, although that has always mostly been Larry only with those. I think if they tried to give Howard a Larry King type of show it will flop. Howard 20-25 years ago would have excelled at that but the modern Howard would die quickly. Something akin to a Ellen with this current makeover could be successful, perhaps in the morning to give a alternative to the Today/GMA garbage.

This is a two-point reply but, have you ever met anyone who was a true hardcore narcissist? That's Howard. He's self admitted that, unless it pertains to him directly and makes him look good/bad, he doesn't really pay attention to these moments. He remembers Sour because he told him off in the streets, he remembers Jackie stonewalling on negotiations, etc but of course not what Richard and Sal did even two months ago let alone five years ago. The other point is, he sometimes goes out of the way to purposely negate that he is into or a fan of something. For example, claiming to never watch Seinfeld yet admitting in a brief moment of candor that his favorite episode was the Merv Griffin set episode. Or mispronouncing words like Torah (toe-ruh), advertisement (ad-ver-dis-ment), or schnorrer (sha-nurr-rer) as if he is entitled not to say them the right way because of his standing in society ("I prank! No one else!")...which is ironic because he always used to bust Jerry Lewis' balls for doing the same poo poo.

Turns out that was only because he wasn't able to get into the club.

He also invented everything first. I like how he rips on Jay for stealing his ideas, yet around this time last year Howard was doing his own version of "Headlines" which was painfully unfunny.

Finndo posted:I predict a sanitized Howard's return to terrestrial radio. I could see him do something like Nikki Sixx's syndicated show. 10 or 15 minutes of banter or canned interviews and then play music. He could easily record 3 or 4 shows a day since each one would only contain 40-55 minutes of content. Syndicate it around North America and there you go.

Did Richard ingesting and guessing beers through his butt happen twice?

# ? Nov 4, 2015 07:26 |

Yeah, first time it happened was when Robin was reading some news story about a frat dude dying or something from rear end chugging so Richard spontaneously volunteered to do it. They did it again last week but with pumpkin beer this time.

Fratto and Eric are up there together today making radio gold for the angels. "Eric, look, they said there's no more room in heaven for straight angels. You gotta be a gay angel." "JOHN-NY, I SA-ID, NOO-O." "Eric cantcha just SAY you're gay and then just go back when they let you in?" "NO!" *suddenly the bunny ranch appears* *Eric wheels inside* *pitch black* *homo room dripping sounds* "JOHN-NY, I SAI-D N-O!"
