Hey, the Stern show is relevant:

quote:

The Herald News of West Paterson, N.J., took pains in a report published on Sept. 13, 2001 to discredit what Paterson officials were calling “hateful gossip” spread by the Howard Stern Show and other radio reports. The mayor at the time, Martin G. Barnes, visited the neighborhood in question and found quiet streets. His spokesman said: “It’s all fiction.” At the time, Paterson police officials speculated that people had been confused by footage of the celebrations in the Middle East.

Time for Howard to get Trump on and prove together that Arabs are bad people.

I've been listening to the 143 Saga for the first time and God drat is that "My Wife" song is brutal. Something about it seems a little too real.

There's also one called "Beat My Wife" (to the tune of Bon Jovi's "It's My Life") that's extremely hostile. He really sounds like he wants to do violence on his wife.

That whole saga just made me feel terribly sad for Sal. His wife really, really hated him and laughed at him when he tried to open up with Dr. Ablow. Sal is no angel, but drat.

I had a hard time feeling sorry for Sal. It seemed like a horrible relationship, but he also acted like he was (and all husbands were) entitled to blowjobs, and it was creepy.

I didn't take it like that exactly, but moreso a 'Sal wants intimacy, but doesn't know how to articulate that' sort of thing. To him, it feels like he just wants a blowjob, but I think what he really wants is to not be the 'commercial-break boy'.

Yeah, that's how My Wife comes across. I laughed pretty hard when they pressed him on it, and he claimed that he was just singing about a "generic American wife."

Sal is a pretty messed up human being. How is his marriage doing now? I haven't kept up on new shows for a while.

I SEE DEMONS
Listen to the entire Sal saga from the beginning and you will feel no sympathy for the man. While he genuinely wanted things to get better, his past track record shows time and time again he doesn't deserve it. He only cared when it was truly affecting him.

Seriously Sal's story through the show is a hidden gem, but he is a garbage human being.

I was listening like "ho hum this is okay" and then I completely lost it at the "punch her 'til she shits out her bones" line. What the gently caress kind of twisted mind comes up with that?

Fuck art. Let's dance.

Best part of Sal's songs about is his wife is how absolutely genuine they sound. They have the raw passion of an early Richard Christy parody recorded in a Florida warehouse.

Christine is your prototypical loud mouth Long Island oval office. Have you heard the tape of her screaming at everyone while they're trying to take a Christmas picture?

People let her off the hook, she is as bad or worse than Sal.

I love that picture. It's not Booey's hideous visage that makes me laugh; it's Howard with his mouth wide open about to jam a gun in there. It so perfectly expresses an emotion.

She thought it was a good idea when he was a stock broker(scam artist) making six figures a year....
When he became Sal the Stock Broker licking a rednecks taint, her opinion drastically changed.

Or he could divorce her. It's not like he's going to be employable after the show anyway. Had to get alimony and child support when both of them are completely worthless sacks of slime.

I don't remember it, but let me venture a guess: he makes awkward compliments to the models, references some kind of obscure work they did, and asks if they remember him from some previous one-off interaction they had which was no different than thousands of similar interactions they've had with guys on the Internet?

And he's so slow about it. He's just radio lead and kills any momentum the show had going for it because he...can't....ta..alk...normally.

Not quite; he talks about nothing, but mentions how he wishes the show was uncensored (some 'Inside the Playboy mansion' show), and that it was longer, and then talks about how they should add him on myspace, because he's on one of their brother's myspace pages, and then he gives out his display name... AFTER they started to say goodbye.

If anyone's interested, it's the ETM 2007-07 video on youtube.

For real, if Sirius/Howard were to ever package and sell every single Eric the Midget and ETM-related call for listeners to buy, standalone from any subscription, you can bet your rear end I'd own that in a heartbeat. Make it a box set, put a pug on it, include some balloons in it. I'd buy it all. The best thing about listening to ETM stuff is, assuming you're not actually tired of listening to his calls, when you get to the end, you can start over at the beginning again because it will have been so long since you had heard it. There's like 120+ hours of the guy.

During that segment Gary pipes in and says "They know who he is, he sends them the same three page emails full of nothing he sends us".

God I'd love to read those emails. Eric writing to what he thinks is a sweet kind big tittied blonde but is being read by some bearded intern at sirius whose job it is to keep tabs on potential stalkers.

I don't have Sirius but I'm guessing every show on the Playboy channel is really loving awkward and creepy, especially the ones that take calls.

I don't know if it's still on Sirius, but it was pretty uncomfortable. A lot of it was random porn stars and girls talking about whatever new movie they've got coming out, fetish related talk, and other stuff no sane human being would listen to while driving.

I don't actually know who the market was for those channels, besides maybe literally only Eric the Midget.

I remember checking it out a few years ago and my takeaway was that it was mostly old porn stars having phone sex with truckers.
