I haven't listened to Monday's show, only heard the highlights Howard played on Tuesday, but am I the only one calling "total bullshit" on the Benji fingering?

Every time I've heard a voice like that it's from someone who has been though life's wringer, and sounds exactly like the kind of woman who you'd find on a site dedicated to hating your life and making it worse.

To be fair, Gary did make over $25,000 for bringing that tape in. edit: To me, the funniest part of that entire affair was KC sitting in the office, furrowing his brow in a vain attempt to count all the cash. haljordan fucked around with this message at 19:28 on Jun 27, 2014 |

No, I listened to the audio on TMZ (because I hate myself) and it seemed totally fake. Benjy basically reacted to a finger in his rear end the same way he reacted to someone mentioning Detlev Bronk.

The tape was first played on June 18th, 1999. Edit: Immediately after posting, I realized the "25 years" refers to when the tape was first made. drat.

Is he meta or something? I mean, is everything he does a bit? I think a goon explained that to me earlier in the thread; he's just constantly pulling something for the show. Just not in a good way. With Sal, you can, at any point, test his knowledge in ANYTHING, and then have him misuse a word when he tries to explain himself. With Richard, you just need to ask 'Hey, Richard, what gross thing did you do this weekend?' and you've got a 45 minute (usually interesting, sometimes hilarious) discussion. With Benjy, no one cares, so it's like he's trying to make people care. Doesn't work.

Benjy said on the WUS that he was playing it up (screaming) when he got his butthole diddled. I've listened to way less of the stern show and even less of Benjy than most of you but I haven't really found him to be that annoying. I don't listen to the WUS regularly or anything but when I do listen as part of some like Todd Packer pack he actually seems kind of insightful on Sal's behavior and poo poo

He can not answer even a yes or no question directly, draws pointless distinctions, and is so obtuse he hasn't even revealed his age on the show. Every time it cuts to him it just brings the show to a standstill. He also purposely dresses weird to get comments from the staff. For a while he came in with a ridiculous wig and I think he still wears 6" platform shoes. Even the staff was annoyed to the point where they didn't bring it up for two weeks. Edit: I guess the best way to sum it up would be to say that he purposely draws attention to himself then doesn't do or say anything interesting with it. He purposely kills any inertia a bit or conversation could have. cumshitter fucked around with this message at 20:05 on Jun 28, 2014 |

Detlev Bronk was part of Majestic 12, the group of scientists that Truman assembled in secret to do something about aliens and UFOs because of Roswell. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Detlev_Bronk&diff=354663812&oldid=354635317) Pretty sure Benjy plays it up to make himself more mysterious and interesting. He's a smart guy, but he acts too much. prefect fucked around with this message at 21:05 on Jun 28, 2014 |

Does nobody remember Benjy the intern wearing a dashiki and claiming to celebrate some African holiday or something just to get on the air? That's all his schtick is, an attention grab. He's also not related to Detlev Bronk, it's just played up.

I dunno, having to stick a finger up somebody's butt sounds like more of the crazy stuff Stern used to do. I remember laughing for weeks on end over Scott debating over getting paid to be hosed by that porn guy. I haven't listened to the Buttjy stuff yet however, I'm still like 3 months behind on shows (Gee that's about 9 shows right?).

I've done some pathetic stuff in my life but I cannot imagine the thought process that leads to making something as horrible as The Gary Tape. I just cannot imagine doing something that shameful. If I made something like that and my friends found it I would probably move across the country and start over.

Which do you guys think was worse: The Gary Tape or the Vinnie Favale "Debbie" tape? I say Vinnie, because at least Gary came off as somewhat sincere; Vinnie just looks like a complete loving creep who keeps women in a pit in his basement.

I can understand a young kid doing it because he doesn't have a lot of perspective on the world, but Toothy was 28 years old when he made that tape and pulling in decent tail despite his face. He should have known better.

Gary comes off as a guy who wears his heart on his sleeve and it's extremely embarrassing. Vinny comes off as a a super creep who should probably be in jail.

The only thing that makes it tolerable to me is that the technology was somewhat new and there were no phones with video then, so making that tape at the time may have been seen as a unique idea.

Plus I think he was flying high on the whole MTV DJ thing and having expensive unique technology might impress her enough to come back. Still pretty sad, but it was a different time, he probably NEVER imagined the video would be widespread available or shared like that.

The difference, as explained by Gary, is that Vinnie was proud of his tapes and voluntarily gave them to the Stern show for free because he thought they were endearing. But yeah, Gary is just an rear end in a top hat in his tape, Vinnie is a total creeper in his. "I'm touching myself and you would benefit from this oh so much."

The best thing to come out of the Vinnie tapes is when they held the 'Ms Butterface' contest during one of the Vegas trips. The woman who eventually won was named Debbie and throughout the whole contest Artie (who was drunk) kept saying 'Oh Debbie Debbie Debbie' like Vinnie did on the tape. You can tell Howard is getting pissed cos he wont stop saying 'Oh Debbie Debbie Debbie'.

I'll have to break from my JD sound pack to listen to the Vinnie tape on Monday. I swear, one of the best things about my job is the ability to listen to whatever I want during the day. Last week, I finished up the ETM pack, and I wish there was more, as it stopped before the end of 2009. Does anyone know if Todd plans to make another one?

Artie's 'oh Debbie' thing was even funnier when he would do it in his Hannibal Lecter voice. "Oh Debbie, I want to eat your heart with some fava beans".
