Yeah a tell all book by Sal would suck because he's a phony and a liar and also he's very stupid. It's gotta be someone who isn't a moron and who has connections. God I wish Gary would grow a spine and spill all the beans.

Post-divorce? Take all my money, if so. That would be amazing.

I imagine he would have to kick the bucket before she could write a book if she wants to keep whatever she gets in the divorce.

Sal and Christine need to be on a reality show on E!, TLC, or whatever obscure lovely cable TV channel.

Fuck art. Let's dance.

If Gary writes another book, I just want to see the same style of cover as Jackie's new book but with a photo of him from the love tape and the title is just: My Boff.

Just looked it up and New York isn't a community property state, so you a re probably right (though not much is probably still millions). I guess that would explain why he always drives so hard for everyone to get a prenup, even JD who barely has a thing to his name.

Came across this again recently:

December 15th 2000. Howard just announced his new contract. A reporter asked "Does this contract give you more time off?" Howard's response was very confident.

quote:

You can only take a certain amount of weeks off in radio. Radio is habitual. People tune in every day to hear it. It's not like the Tonight Show where you can take Fridays off or Monday off or something like this. You know, Johnny Carson worked out a contract where he showed up three days a week and I don't think I can be like that. Either your committed to it and you're here every day for the audience pretty much, you know, you take your vacation days and stuff but if I'm going to do it I've got to be aggressive about it.

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.
I'd virtually guarantee you there's an NDA in that prenup. She'll be well taken care of in exchange for her silence about everything.

I always wonder how much of a bubble Howard lives in or tries to live in. Do staff treat him like Trump where they never tell him how people are really feeling and so he has more of an ignorance of how the audience feels or does stuff like "that Lena Dunham interview was awful radio" get to him and he has to pretend to ignore it?

I read the whole last page about Jackie with the circus music playing in my head.
Also, that is actually a really good book title, but I love Jackie.

The best tell all book could be written by his long time assistant Laura. She has been his assistant since the Allison years.

Eh, I love hate him. He was great on the show, but what an awful person. No real guy to talk to, just this bizarre comic/hippie/partyman persona who wants to drink and be wild.

Fred playing Jackie laughs at inappropriate times, and people mocking his voice/laughs in various ways are probably the hardest I've ever laughed at anything.

It's amazing how consistently little he says about her. He clearly makes an effort not to turn anything about her into show material.
Yeah, she'd never write it, but her book would be the best. I wonder how much he pays her?

While I know you're joking around, a few months ago, I decided to always call him Eric the Actor going forward. Not because the word 'midget' is offensive; the little jerk didn't even know WHY it was offensive when questioned on why he had a problem with the term. No, I do this because calling him an actor is, to me, more of a jab at his continued and everlasting failure to be one.

Was he on tv, reciting scripted lines? Yes.

Was Eric an actor? Good lord, no.

He certainly was a stupid, dumb, ANNOYING, retarded, lovely, RUDE, no-talent midget, though.

I think he doesn't talk about Allison because of his kids. My folks broke up and I'd feel kinda lovely if I heard one of them trashing the other on radio each day.

Plus he may feel a little guilty since he wasn't exactly the best during their last years of marriage.

Let's open up with an extended parody of silent comedies, a genre that's been dead for 60 years.
Except, instead of having actual elements of parody, we'll just take a slightly original premise and run it into the ground by playing it straight.

'Gum flapping'? 'A look inside the Mac Hine'?

Obviously we all need to think up fake but funny book titles for various staff members now. :colbert:

Howard is a real "leather daddy" in that video.

I'm nearly at the end of my 4th or possibly 5th complete listen to of shows going from 1994 to 2008 (artie leaves + wussification of howard and i stopped) and i cant possibly do that again.

Are there any good 4 hour all talk daily radio shows which i might grow to like? I have to break free ...

Its mostly sort of background noise as im working then perk up when somethings good, but that era was very good! Peak eras, 1993 - 2000 (until every day was an FCC rant) then Sirius was all good once it got going till about 2008.

Whatever you say about Howard thats 15 years solid stuff every day. I just cant go again!
