I would be shocked if local morning zoo folks made more than $35k/year. Fun fact, here in Seattle one of the rock stations has friggin Danny Bonaduce as part of their morning zoo. I have a hard time believing that he is getting paid a tenth of what he was making before he got kicked off of Adam Carolla's "Howard replacement" show.

Howard did a lot of murky stuff to Alison, let's be clear. He kissed, groped, and got dry humped by women on his show and women at strip clubs. Did he have an affair though? I tend to think not only because we never heard about it ever. Nobody's ever stepped forward to say otherwise and while maybe there's a chance he bought the silence there's no way some random bimbo would have been able to keep her mouth shut about it to her friends who would in turn blab it and someone would have picked up the story.

Yeah I agree. I don't agree with the Beth theories either (that they started dating while he was still married and before he got separated). It seems like the sort of thing that an angry ex-coworker (John, Artie, the HTV crew) would have brought up by now. If not them, then his daughter who did an angry interview that bashed Howard in the newspapers would have brought it up.

I think smarter money is on the relationship ending because Allison found an emotional friend.

Howard and Beth cant even keep the date they met straight. Theres no doubt they were seeing each other while he was still married.

SUCK A MALE CAMEL'S DICK WITH MIRACLE WHIP!!
A few months ago, I sent an email to Richard Christy, I've emailed him before and he has always gotten back to me, though its usually taken several weeks. It was about an idea I had for a tradio prank call. It actually came to me in a dream, so I wasn't sure if it was one that they had done already and I was just "remembering" it through my dream or if it hadn't been done.
The basic premise is this: Sal or Richard call Tradio trying to sell some "breeding sheep". Without going in to details, it is implied that while the call is going on, it is subtle, but obvious that the caller is boning the sheep.

Richard ended up getting back to me a week or so ago, saying they'd try that one out. I guess they hadn't done it already as I'd thought. I'm sure they get tons of suggestions from fans, and I don't know the legalities of using an idea that a fan has submitted, but I'm hoping to hear it on the show at some point.

Fingers crossed.

Yes, they saw each other while he was still married. Howard and Alison separated in 1999 and the divorce didn't happen for nearly 2 years later during which he also banged Robin Givens, Angie Everhart, and others. He absolutely slept with Beth and other women while he was still married, there can be zero debate about that fact. Beth wasn't the cause of the separation/divorce, though.

The dates stuff is, I don't know, people focus on that stuff when it doesn't matter. Some people remember dates well and others don't, it's not a test of a relationship or the test of a liar. Robin and Mr. X had dated for what, like 7-10 years, and they couldn't agree on their first date. Don't look at it like a couple who can't keep their lie (that would harm nobody and would be pointless to keep up 15+ years after divorce) together. I would bet you money you could take 100 random couples, asked them the date they met, where their first date was, and where they had sex for the first time and maybe 20% answer all three correctly. People forget poo poo all the time, it's not indicative of a grand conspiracy.

How do you do, fellow Regis?
People forget dates and the details of first meetings all the time. I'm only in my early thirties and I forget things like that all time, so I can imagine its even worse for Howard. If there was some conspiracy that Howard and Beth were keeping to, then you would think that they would have stuck to it more closely.

I deffo think there was a cracking of the whip at some point when it came to Beth. Robin used to criticize her all the time (like when she read that FHM interview) and Sal used to do it when he called into the show (like when he showed up to the tasteless costume contest as "Beth the Gold Digger" while wearing a dress and carrying a shovel). Howard definitely laid down the law at some point, as it became a total love fest whenever Beth's name was mentioned, with only Sal defying him.

Howard can't remember dates because he seriously can't do math without counting on his fingers like a four year old. Just the other day Howard was trying to figure out how long it had been since the Foo Fighters had done an acoustic version of one of their songs. It happened in 1998 and Howard thought that was 21 years ago until a caller corrected him.

The language center of his brain is overdeveloped and the math center is practically nonexistent.

I remember when Louis CK was trying to tell him about something that happened 20 years ago, in 93, and Howard kept mistaking it for 2003, which at the time was only 10 years ago.

How early in the morning was it when he was trying, that's important to consider.

While your posts makes sense, John Popper's book talks about how Beth came up to him and said she's Howard's secret girlfriend when he was on Letterman one day way before he was divorced. I'm not a conspiracy theorist when it comes to that, but it seems like lying about an event like that could definitely lead to some sort of litigation or something.

I think we are confusing "date of separation" with "date of divorce". Separation comes first, the whole point of separation is to free you up to have sex with other people while you are waiting for the divorce to go through. Howard and Alison were never working on their marriage during this period, only finalizing the divorce.

"I'm secretly Howard's girlfriend" could just mean "Howard told me to keep quiet until everything is final."

I know there are a few rumors that those were fake relationships as Givens and Everhart were Buckwald clients, and that Howard was with Beth all along.

I work with a group of guys that are 27-35 years in age (I'm 43) and I constantly forget the age gap. The other day we were talking about Pulp Fiction and I said that I went opening weekend to see it in the theater. My co-worker said he tried too but they kept kicking him out. I said, "Where you laughing really loud or something?" and he was like, "no I was only 13 and it was R rated.".

Heard an older clip where they berated Gary into crying because Mary rules with an iron fist and makes Gary watch the kids on the weekend. Gary in the 80s was living on West 73rd and Amsterdam, right next to Broadway and a block from Central Park. No wonder he was a cokehead poon hound back then.

I was talking to someone my age while some interns were around and we started talking about writing checks and balancing a checkbook and it was so funny to see them just not be able to add to the conversation. Most people under 30 today have maybe written a handful of checks in their lives, some maybe a little more/less but nothing like when we grew up and the checkbook actually went places with you and you actually went through entire books or you couldn't just sign up for automatic deduction or pay a bill online 30 seconds before it was due but you had to actually time it in the mail to get there before due date so you weren't assessed a late fee.

It was so obvious to anyone whos ever been around a hard drug user. The people making excuses for him on the show were just pathetic. As a result of that Dr. Drew and Brad Garrett were some of the best appearances for calling out Arties bullshit, they saw right through it.
