Did anyone hear when Will or Jason or whoever was talking about how much he pays for an ounce of weed? 350 Bucks!?!?!?!?! Is that a standard NYC price? Rude Jude, a couple days later did a segment that he does from time to time called "drug stockmarket" where people call in from around the US and give prices for various drugs. There were a couple people who called from New York, but they never really specified how much a typical ounce goes for in the city. Is 350 a standard price? That sounds high as gently caress. Around here, when it was still illegal you'd pay 180-220 for an ounce. You could typically get two for the price he's paying for one.

Prices in the North East have always been high, because you have to ship it here, and everything is that much more expensive in NYC. Plus, Jason has good taste, and l would imagine he buys top quality weed. And he probably has a high-service level guy who caters to wealthier clients. All this to say that $350 is probably down from historical levels, since with legalization, prices have started to come down across the board. He was probably paying $450 an oz 10 years ago. Back in the day (90s), kind bud (ie sensemillia) was rare in the North East, and when it came around, you bought it. Price was pretty much always $60 an eighth. Most weed was Mexican ditch weed, aka schwag, aka The Brown Frown, packed tight as a brick in garbage compactors for smuggling, which sold for $25-$30 an eighth. That $60 an eighth price lasted right up until legalization put pressure on it 5-6 years ago. Quality and availability only got better over time; for the last 15 years or so we've had access to West Coast grown weed here in Massachusetts, but it was always a little moldy by the time you bought it. Modern dispensary weed is much, much fresher. For now, prices have stabilized a bit, but there is farther for them to fall in the future, once more dispensaries open. Black market price is $40 an eighth, compared to dispensary prices of $35-50 for an eighth (plus tax if you don't have a medical card).

I'm surprised that this is news to some people here, its was passed around and scrutinized all over the place. I read Reddit and Dawg's though so I'm obviously way too knowledgeable about the show in general. All's I'll say is that someone named it "The Pelican Brief" and I think I wheezed from laughter after hearing that, it's so perfect

This is pretty depressing (from the first post in the thread):quote:Shows on Howard 101 Look at all of that. Now 101 is effectively an endless "Friend of the Court" interview replay from the last three years only.

Pretty sure it is just the Wrap Up Show, Sternthology, and the Saturday Soundtrack thing which I think is just part of weekend Sternthology. So much potential for these channels. Remember when he talk about having a 3rd channel?

Ronnie is an rear end in a top hat, he went to a BBQ and hosted a party for Stefanies' birthday. No masks. He gave the standard lame excuses, like, "I know them." We are loving doomed. I love when they all pile on him and he gets SUPER angry, though. We got a good hour of that today.

The original was pretty funny (partly because Billy West, and partly because it was many years ago). And more people knew what "Hill Street Blues" was -- it was very popular at the time.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-howard-stern-sirius-xm-radio-us-election-a9511436.html You're giving Howard way too much credit for how much of an influence he has. He couldn't turn the tide in 2004 when he had millions upon millions of loyal listeners, and he certainly isn't going to have any impact now when he likely has a few hundred thousand listeners.

Then he should at least compare the Trump presidency to Mike Walker's fart (RIP... heh) "It's disgusting, has gone on WAY too long, and is hilarious while being terrifying. Also parodied out the rear end."

I found that someone uploaded the entire Artie Lange Addiction Saga to YouTube, and I was listening to that again until it got taken down this week. I should have downloaded it when I had the chance. With some Googling I was able to find Chapters 1, 2, 5, and 6. But I still need Chapters 3 and 4. It's like 24 hours long and it sucks me in every time. I've probably listened to it all the way through 3 times over the years.
