Good job, Mr Lance Murdock! To continue from the other thread and keep with the complaining: Ending the show at 10:00 doesn't really surprise me, somehow. He's complained about doing a 5 hour show when he's only contracted for 6:00-10:00 for years. Pretty sure even back on testicle radio. I think he's just acting on it now because he really no longer gives a poo poo. The show has become really phoned-in since Artie left... It's obvious he's just collecting a paycheck now.

Although, it's at the drawback of having to constantly log back in if you go back and forth between listening on your computer.

Kelly posted:- Howard is patently dishonest with his audience regarding a few things. Namely, not working Fridays. And, when Bubba signed his last contract they were all crowing about it but neglected to mention he wasn't actually live 4 of the 5 days. Also: completely embracing people to further Beth's career that he would normally shun - to our amusement. I've come to realize over the many years that this is true. He's dishonest to the audience with a lot of things, which is made even more aggravating because he constantly claims otherwise. It's not new to the Sirius move, though. I remember at least 10 years ago always wondering why they never announced when they were taking vacation, because it was such a downer to wake up to a repeat. He finally admitted some years ago that he does this to trick the audience into thinking it's a new show, even if it's just for a short time. I guess for ratings. I'm not sure why this carried over to Sirius where ratings don't really matter -- do they? And yeah, the Fridays off thing is really bad, especially after his rant just a few years earlier. "If you're not there on Fridays, you are doing a disservice to the audience. And you're not doing your job. You're not doing it right." "I'm not going to come and do this show and jip my audience. Not going to do it. I'm going to do the best I can." ...What's that about not jipping us, Howard?

40ozOE posted:Best laugh of the week so far: Robin says NBC brought Conan to the Tonight Show to "euthanize the audience." Not true. You're allowed three transfers to new equipment which costs an additional $75 transfer fee and a $15 activation fee. I'm still on my original Sirius Sportster (the one with the good FM transmitter). However, it's become kind of finicky... I have to move it around a bit sometimes to get a connection to the antenna. Still, five years with the original equipment isn't bad. Sounds like you haven't had as good luck with your equipment, though.

Moniker posted:Let me preface this by saying that I know jack poo poo about the web but I think one thing that would help would be for howard to actually have good content on his website so other sites would actually want to post links to his site. The more sites linking in, the higher your page rank is. Besides that, if he had a heading on his show review like "Howard Stern - Jenna Jameson rides the sybian in studio" that would turn up more search results for people searching for Jenna Jameson (or who ever the celebrity was that day) and in return would help with searches. Don't worry. He has some AMAZING things planned. He's just waiting for the technology to catch up with all the crazy things he wants to do.

Those of you who also listen to the radio live: Have you also noticed that the show has consistently started right around 6:07 since they came back? At first I thought somebody was running late and was waiting to hear Howard rip into somebody. It used to start right at 6:00 or maybe one or two minutes past. I'm sure tied into him ending the show right around 10:07 everyday; making sure he gets exactly four hours in, and not one minute more. I've also really noticed the shorter shows more than I thought I would. Funny that by cutting off an hour of show each day it's like we're effectively losing another four hour show.

Kelly posted:A few weeks ago they were talking about the new contract and how they had to make some concessions to get some of the things they wanted and under her breath Robin said something about being available on the app and Howard replied with something along the lines of: " Yeah, well they weren't going to let THAT go on too much longer" I caught that, too. It was at the beginning of a show, one of the first few days they were back. I can't remember exactly what he said... something like they weren't really given much of a choice. I've always thought the reason H100 and H101 wasn't on the app before was because of Howard. I honestly can't think of any other reason they weren't.

Butthole Prince posted:In either case, I think it would have been more appropriate and led to more reliable results had they conducted it in some sort of 'blind' examination manner. If they know they're being tested to find out if they are crazy or not, the test subjects have got to be more susceptible to giving answers that are more in tune with what they think they should answer to appear 'normal' rather than what their instinctive answer would be. Agreed. I also didn't like that the woman who gave them the psych test admitted she's a huge fan of the show and has listened to them her whole life. I think it would have been much more appropriate to have someone who was unfamiliar with the show test them.

Looks like it's official that there are no plans to fill the Artie chair. I missed it when it aired but caught it on the replay just now. Joey Boots asked Howard point blank if he was going to put anyone in. Howard said nope, he's enjoying it how it is right now and thinks it would be too crowded with another person.

Kelly posted:So now this is the second time free content is appearing on a paid service. Usually it is the opposite. A preview of a paid service is given to entice people to sign up. He must be desperate to put something on the air. There are 300 million people in this country. Howard can't find ONE who can do something live five days a week on 101? I think he just can't be bothered. He mentioned a couple weeks ago when he was talking about finding a replacement for Bubba how he hates it when they bring him a bunch of tapes to listen to. He's barley putting an effort into the show. -He's cut an hour off of each show (20%) -Can't be bothered to find a replacement for the Jackie/Artie chair -Can't be bothered (along with Gary) to get decent guests -Can't be bothered to find talent to fill his two channels -Rumored to go to 3 days a week from 4 any day now He's not much better than the Oprah channel he makes fun of now.

I love that Robin was busted eating fries and ketchup at a restaurant with Tim. Her unprocessed foods and green drink poo poo is probably what she wants to project for the show. I'm sure she really does eat the "healthy" food and green drinks, but then sneaks the crap food when she can.

I didn't think you were trying to stir up a shitstorm... I was just playing along with the Booey-speak. Whenever someone says anything critical on The Wrap-Up Show, he and Jon Hein are both guilty of informing the caller that they're entitled to their opinion, but they don't agree. It comes off so incredibly condescending and has always made me angry.

Hey, they HAVE to do all those commercials! They're doing US a favor! They wouldn't be able to prepare for each exciting segment, because let's face it, you really have to do your research when interviewing porn stars and Joan Rivers. And don't forget, they also need time to eat and pee. It's pretty difficult to go without eating for 4 hours.

Kelly posted:Let me preface this by saying I find Kevin Smith to be insufferable. He has diarrhea of the mouth, and I had to stop following him on Twitter because he was flooding my feed. Yeah, I thought that was interesting, too. I guess it could be Howard just not remembering; he seems to forget people who have been on the show from time to time. I do think most directors (and ones you mentioned) were in pre-Sirius. Back when they had decent guests. The other thing that stuck out in that conversation was when Howard said he didn't want Kevin on because they were already "booked up": Jim Breuer was already scheduled. So I guess it's going to be a rare day when they have more than two guests in now. I suppose it makes sense when you figure how short the show is now. Jim Breuer was in around 8:15 and stayed for an hour without (I think?) a commercial break. That's one third of the show when you remove the commercials, bumpers and songs! If they had two guests in, the news might go too late!
