Mad Doctor Cthulhu posted:That has to be one of the few Robin lines that just made me smile. She's dead on correct. He says it's causing him a lot of pain and he wants to be done with it. Howard wants to have it bronzed and Jason said he'd be willing to take a bite of it.

I'm still a ways behind, but how awesome was the Bobo bit from June first? Holy poo poo, the guy does NOT listen to the show. At all. He calls in, gets his jollies, hangs up and goes about his day. An unbelievable phony, even by Stern Show standards.

It was great to hear Stump the Booey again but it would have been a lot better if Howard wasn't complaining and rushing through it the whole time. Why agree to do a bit only to be a dick about it and try to ruin it?Mariana Horchata posted:ya that was kinda weird and painful to listen to...sounded to me like someone else's words coming out of his mouth without hesitation like he heard or read the same thing elsewhere and just couldnt help himself It's from a book he read on Navy SEALs. They use the exact same rhetoric in American Sniper. Howard is trying way too hard to sound like a badass. You know you've lost your grip on reality when you're unironically quoting Clint Eastwood movies. Howard is getting more and more rightwing and it's impossible to listen to anymore. I wonder what he would say about articles like this that show gun control in Germany dropped their homicide rate by 50% in eight years and total gun crime by 25% in five years.

One part of the show my mind has never caught up to is just the aging. Howard to an extent is obvious and Robin actually manages to stay looking young for her age(I'd likely attribute this to no husband and no kids) but other people are significantly older than I thought and I think my brain just kinda has them frozen at a particular age. JD is 38, Ralph is 51, Benjy is 49, etc. Just odd to me since so many people have been around forever so you remember them fresh-faced and young in their 20s and now 10, 20, 30 years later they're still at it. e:  Wolfie studying JDhttps://www.howardstern.com/show/25046-wolfies-20-groundbreaking-observations-about-jd-harmeyer/ Crotch Bat fucked around with this message at 10:20 on Jun 16, 2016 |

JD is 38, Ralph is 51, Benjy is 49, etc. drat at some of those ages, maybe Ronnie being 110 isnt that much of an exaggeration after all? The anthropological study of JD actually turned out to be the most hilarious bit of the show and made me laugh out loud when Wolfie asked JD "what he had his eye on for the entree" just the choice of words and delivery were so perfectly irritating (which of course was later confirmed by JD) ...and thats all i ask of each show to entertain me and make me laugh at least once).

Yeah i figured it had to be from one of those books he keeps bringing up...I don't think he's getting that much more right wing, he's certainly always had libertarian tendencies and lots of populist opinions - id say hes just becoming more and more out of touch since he lives in a bubble. Actually every time a combat veteran has called in recently it has become really awkward when he inevitably starts asking them about killing people. Regarding the article im sure he'd go right to the usual Nazi defense and remind us all again how his ancestors were killed in the holocaust and then say something about Israel blah blah blah Oh well at least we don't have to hear talk about AGT anymore all summer long...ill take Howard making as rear end out of himself on the air anytime over that.

I was using a trial for the last month (since they really make it such a pain in the rear end to cancel a subscription) which stopped and logged out automatically last night so figuring the trial was up I went ahead and started a new 30 day trial this morning and didn't have any issues doing so and its working fine.

Ok, weird. I do it every month with that link (not one that you need to put in a credit card for), and for some reason yesterday and today it's sending me the log in credentials but they aren't being accepted.

I was thinking of signing up for another online subscription, as I miss having Stern as my morning alarm. For many years, I woke up at 6:01 to the sound of Fred doing his thing (on my clock radio, and later my Sonos). But then I remembered that the show doesn't start until 7:00 AM now, so I wouldn't be getting live Stern. A big waste, might as well keep stealing the show and being at least a day behind.

Squashy Nipples posted:Yes, Howard *IS* getting more conservative with age, but he has ALWAYS owned handguns: he is genuinely afraid that The Bad Guys will come for him in his Trump Tower Penthouse apartment. Not always. He got a gun permit after he received death threats from Michael Carvin in 1998. I really don't know how I would handle an admittedly disturbing situation like that, but Howard has only gotten more and more scared in those 18 years. Mariana Horchata posted:Regarding the article im sure he'd go right to the usual Nazi defense and remind us all again how his ancestors were killed in the holocaust and then say something about Israel blah blah blah He hit all the Fox News talking points on Wednesday's show. "If you have gun control then only criminals will have guns... let's never discuss new laws after a massacre because people can't be rational... if you don't own a gun then you're a politically correct pussy... Anne Frank's father should have had guns to fight the Nazis  " ad nauseam. It doesn't help when the ultimate know-nothing, Robin, chimes in with even dumber commentary. Howard gets his information from Fox but Robin pulls it directly out of her rear end!The most annoying thing is that Howard would rather go on these political rants than do something funny or interesting for the show. He interrupted the discussion about Brent's commercial to go off about the second amendment. Even Ralph had to call in and disagree. How often is Ralph the voice of reason?

I actually think he is being fairly honest here... he has ALWAYS wanted to be on a TV show, before reality TV, he used to say that he wanted to host a game show. However, part of his fantasy was that it was an easy job; on a traditional game show, all the host does is show up and host, the producers do all the real work. Think Alex Trebek. However, show up, do your job and leave doesn't fly in the modern social media age. The producers of AGT wanted him to dedicate a lot of hours outside of taping the show to promotion and mindless BS, which was certainly never part of Howard's vision.

I wonder if Howard Stern: The High School Years will come out as part of Howard 360?

Ok, so I'm here at work, my new position, still reading the training docs, stuff like that. I have a new computer, so I had to set up Lync/Skype for Business again, and just like last time, where you get to put in your location and you can write whatever you want, I put 'Can I tell you my favourite Matt Dillon story, real briefly?". The dude who sits next to me saw this, and started googling it. I only knew this because I walked by his desk, and he had a clip from the show playing on Youtube. I asked if he was a fellow fan, and he said no, not really, he just ended up there because of my quote on Lync. I then proceeded to show him both the MIke Walker fart clip, and then the Hugs for Harlem (#2) clip with No Gravity. Last I checked, he was reading the show's wiki, learning about everything. I told him I know of about a million clips online that he might like. Especially EtM
