I still say there is no way Gary was 100% behind this. Sure he may have called and got the ball rolling, but there's no way he's been planing this for four years on his own. He'd be crowing about it if he did and Sal would have hosed it up by now.

It was "Thriller", emphasizing Gary's lips and using that word. Sal was annoyed at the perceived lack of quality of the listener submitted song parodies (they weren't offensive enough) so he took it upon himself to set the bar.

Lips like a n***a
Face like a gorilla
With big horse teeth,
(something something something)

Then Sal copies the instrumental break with
n****r n****r n****r lips

Artie fake coming out to George was one of the most tasteless things they ever did.

In addition to it being tasteless, I've mentioned how Artie's "acting" in terms of him understanding as a gay guy is so stupid and cringey. "I hosed him in the rear end, he hosed me in the rear end"

Why does everyone think Gary is completely incompetent?

He's the high-level producer now, which is a lot of gladhanding publicists, unreturned phone calls, and endless, endless networking... all things that Gary seems pretty good at?

It’s hosed up that living with a dog he could pet whenever and presumably not have to lift a finger to care for was for Artie a relationship deal breaker.

I always thought it was funny that dogs "schkeeve" Artie (not sure how you spell it) when he's a big fat load who probably smells like sweat and garlic (and I love a-mah Artie actually)

I wonder that too. I obviously have no idea for sure, but I feel like for poo poo like this there's probably a lot of security and secrecy involved whenever a sitting president is going to anything that's not an official function. Not to say there's none at regular presidential stuff but what if they announced 6 months ago that he was coming on?

Seems like at the very least there'd be a huge media circus, and with all the Trump lovers in town for the trial, someone would have tried something I'm sure.

Not to say that baba fuckin booey could just call the white house and ask the president to come on the show, but thats kinda has job, to book guests.

Gary probably has some connections with the DNC. He went to the White House Correspondents' Association dinner where he famously asked Bradley Cooper to come over and say hello to his table. Which endlessly annoyed Howard.

Remember the porn star they interviewed who said she wouldn't do scenes with black guys but she would consider having sex with a dog and Artie couldn't stop laughing? That randomly popped into my head today.

Auto sales are slow, they have a lovely app and are trying to complete with Spotify. The article mentions they are want to merge SiriusXM and Pandora. https://www.libertymedia.com/tracking-stocks/liberty-siriusxm-group
That looks like a VC/Hedgefund company so I expect they run that into the ground.

Still, why single out Howard of all people.


lol oh

quote:

Scott Greenstein, president and chief content officer of SiriusXM Radio, talked about his company possibly having to replace Howard Stern should the “King of All Media” retire and not renew his long-standing deal when it comes up next year.

“You never want to be a company without Howard and if he decides to retire, or do whatever he does, then that’s his choice,” he told analysts. In 2020, Stern last extended his deal with the company for his flagship show by five years.

“You don’t replace someone, you come up with a strategy of what is your current demo and your target audience and you look at what would be best suited for that at any given time. And we love our bench,” Greenstein added about a potential post-Howard Stern world for SiriusXM radio.

The last sentence is telling. There is no way they are going to wait around for him to decide. It will look like he's going out on his terms, but I doubt it.

The writing has been on the wall for a long time. Howard always does the "I'm not doing this again" schtick, but the show has been slowly disappearing for a decade now along side it just not being on very much anymore (#1 reason I quit listening a few years ago). He's got another 20 months on his contract and I can't imagine the show continuing after that. I would assume that someone will give him a new job after that to do interview specials (SiriusXM, maybe Netflix or Max) and he might get his broadcasting fix by going on other people's podcasts or something.

As someone in the car business I can attest to the fact that car sales are a major factor with any subscription service that relies on them. Anyone remember Onstar?
Most cars dont even want to build Sat radio in anymore and instead opt for carplay or andriod auto or whatever its called and call it a day.
The other issue is that most pre-owned cars that had a subscription never have it turned off...basically every car I buy pre-owned that has built in Sat radio has it turned on and working and it never shuts off...
I have also NEVER had anyone specifically say they want Sat Radio. I get requests for backup cameras, heated seats and bluetooth to your phone but never sat radio built in.

See Lance's reply above. They count every car as an active sub and that well has run dry. Google and Apple would rather scrape your data without buying it from a 3rd party (Sirius).
