chiz posted:Patrice sounded like a good dude, what a shame. Nick and Patrice were definitely two sides of the same coin. They're both pitbullish and unafraid to say things that were (god help me) politically incorrect, and I'd say they agree way more than they don't. Patrice is actually way more sexist than Nick, which is saying something. I always got a kick out of their friendship. I think they could have done a brilliant remake of "The Defiant Ones". I like Nick's story about seeing Patrice after a doctor's visit. Nick asks how it went and Patrice tells him "Man, I got 8 of the 10 things that kill niggas!". Listen to the "WTF" episode with Patrice. He's a fascinating and maddening individual. I'm gonna miss seeing the guy.

AxeManiac posted:Nick is a pretty gross dude, if his whole "What is your problem black people and women, get over it" bit is a bit, it isn't funny and if he believes it, he is pretty stupid. If a highschool football game is cancelled because 16 players got hypothermia, you just know how the people cancelling the game voted, and it's why he votes the way he votes. They're not kids, they're men! These are the last days of Rome, people! The guy is seriously one of the best club comics you'll ever see, but he's dumb as hell when it comes to politics. I don't mean because he's a conservative or anything, he's just dumb about it and can't seem to explain his point of view very well.

POCKET CHOMP posted:There have been a few cases where they were messed up or incomplete. I think way back at the beginning there was some sort of glitch where like the show itself when it was being broadcast live messed up, and so the "hour 3" or something was like 6 minutes long. But there have been other times where it's just not perfect and I recall that there was one show that was missing a certain hour forever, I eventually gave up on them adding it and just moved on. The hours with the great Bobby Slayton interview where he curses up a storm and the Hank Williams interview weren't put up. I just assumed it was for some stupid legal reason or another, but the Williams interview is up in the clips section. There've been a couple other spots here and there early on, maybe like 5 total. I'm sure he's fine, but does anyone else get nervous when Artie gets groggy on the show?

You deserve to go out like a king, the king of all media. It's a good loving point. It really is. I haven't listened to the show outside of a few things on youtube here and there for over a year, and I used to be a dyed in the wool goddamned Stern apologist. It really makes me sad that there's a Stern show being broadcast that I have absolutely zero interest in, because the guy really is (was) that good. As much as he thinks Sal and Richard retardation isn't funny, it is. And for god's sake, let someone, anyone with a lick of goddamn talent sit in the Artie chair. A lot of people are against it, but I'd honest to god most likely re-up if Jackie was back in the saddle. Something has to cut through how boring the show has become. gently caress it, bring John back. And I loving hate Stuttering John.

His Bill Curtis schtick about Rick Santorum's dead baby was one of the funniest things I've heard in a very long time. The short message that came from behind the prison walls was chilling. It simply said "kill a cop"...

Szyznyk posted:Worst Nick and Artie Show guest toss up: Bob Levy or Kamal from the Jerky Boys? Bob isn't talented or funny, but he is at least kind of interesting in a bottom-feeding, sewer rat failed comedian way. Plus it's always great to hear his more successful comedian friends (i.e. anyone who knows him who may have once or twice done a drunken open mic) gently caress with him. I loved the Jerky Boys when I was in high school, and the only way you could hear them was through poorly dubbed bootleg audio cassettes, but Kamal may officially be the least relevant human being in show business. So I'd have to say Stephen A. Smith.

It was awfully nice of him to take ten minutes out of his busy schedule of arguing with Skip Bayliss about Tim Tebow to call in, though. Speaking of black guys and lovely audio, as much fun as Brian Jones was in studio, someone should have directed him to speak into the microphone. It reminded me of Phil Hendrie doing Bud Dickman's off-mic voice.

CrazyAss13 posted:What show did Stephen A. Smith call in? I'd like to hear that. Anyone know the date? I'll find it for you, but it really isn't a very good call. His phone line is terrible, and he doesn't really talk about anything all that interesting. He's basically siding with the owners on the NBA strike, and Nick and Artie really don't add anything to the dialogue. If you've heard him talk about it on "First & Ten", you get the idea.

Nick is funny, though he may make you want to puke sometimes with his incredibly nebulous grasp of politics. Artie's been nothing but funny, and he's got a much shorter leash than he was on the Stern Show. I've been enjoying the hell out of the show since day one. It makes me miss Stern a lot less. http://www.nickandartie.com They've got the whole run on mp3 right now, but it ain't exactly episodic, so you'll be alright just going back a couple weeks. e: Should we have a seperate Nick and Artie thread, or should we have any chat about it fester in the corpse of the old Stern thread?

Like when Nick said gay bashing didn't really exist on the Stern show a couple years ago.

I love Conan O'Brien, but it kinda sucked being in studio for a taping. Plus, my friend and I almost got tossed because some random goofball in the audience pitched a fit about SUNY or something. I've also heard horror stories about people being pitched out of Letterman tapings for making a face or whatever when they pan the audience. TV tapings are OK, but you gotta play ball in a serious way. It's very tightly controlled, and they'll often get rid of you if they so much as don't like the look of you. All that said, if you're patient, and not prone to acting like a dickweed, they're not so bad. If you're into checking out Howard in person, go for it. It's not like it ain't fun ditching work over bullshit, plus it's not the worst way to spend a day. I very much doubt you'll get a fan experience like Atom, though.

Iceberg1 posted:I agree that Kinison's stand up sucks, but in fairness I feel that comedy stands the test of time the least. There is stand up that I thought was hilarious in the 90's that I feel is unwatchable now. I am too young to have seen Kinison when he was popular so I try not to judge. He went from being a special, unique voice in stand-up comedy, really honestly edgy, to being a fat weirdo wannabe rock star that told incessant human being and black jokes, when he wasn't too loving drunk to perform, as his fame increased. He used to accuse Dice of stealing his schtick, which you could argue one way or another in my opinion, to doing a bad watered down version of Dice's terrible act. He was as charismatic a human being as there ever was, and pretty fairly talented on top of that, but his fame and ego and love of mood altering substances collided in the worst possible way. It would have been interesting to see what came of Sam if he'd ever cleaned himself up, but there you go. I like that story about Sam going out to dinner with Howard, and Sam starts talking to Howard about adopting a healthy diet like him. So he ordered two servings of creamed spinach.

Either that or pulling a Willy Aames on Celebrity Fit Club. I can't help but think that a clearheaded Sam Kinison might've done some great stuff with the benefit of a couple crazy decades behind him, but a Sam/Dice seventh comeback tour reality show seems a hell of a lot more probable.

Well, it's taken about 5 or 6 years, but Artie talking through a mouthful of food directly into the mic has made the jump from funny to awful and disgusting and annoying, for me anyways. Still, that's some amazing legs for a bit. I'm waaay behind on N&A. Is Nick still adamant about defending Joe Pa and PSU after today's revelations? Considering his desperate need to play Devil's advocate against all that's wrong with the world today, and how we vote the way we do (?), plus his grotesque, uneducated political world views, gonna go ahead and venture a big "yes" on that. Boy, is he lucky he's funny and good looking. Also, can someone refresh my memory as to when Artie did the Bill Curtis, Rick Santorum, dead baby bit?

Oh man, I've got to jump ahead when they're back on live. I cannot wait to hear him weigh in on the Paterno statue flap.

I was just about to defend Janks's schtick, but you actually make an excellent point here. How can you really mock something that's already made a complete mockery of itself. Parodying a parody is an empty gesture. It's like farting on a fart. Janks should never stop doing what he does, just like people should never stop yelling Bababooey during live remotes, but neither really have much of the oomph they used to. All I know is, if I somehow travelled 200 years into the future and heard some dumbass screaming Bababooey into a holo-cam or whatever the gently caress, I'd feel pretty good about the human race. It's just one of those things that's always right. Always. Also, I absolutely love how the greatest all-time "Janks call" wasn't even him! "I see OJ.

I just finished listening to the old Get John's Job pack again, and it's funny that Chaunce is so repulsive a human being that he had zero chance of winning. He did a pretty goddamn good job during his week, and he was a gross enough person to actually replace Stuttering John. Still obvious that the right person won. I'm not a big Yucko fan, but it would've been fascinating if he'd won. How long could he have kept the clown schtick up if he'd have gotten the job? His song parody was horrible and hysterical all at once.

I stopped listening to the show 2 or 3 years ago, and I keep thinking I'll resubscribe because I miss it so much. Then I read things like how he's being cyber bullied and all the AGT stuff and his bullshit schedule and, as much as I know you kids can get a little overly dramatic about stuff when it comes to Stern, I know I can never go back, and that makes me sad. I really wish he'd retired when his last contract was up. I used to be one of the major Positivity Patrol guys in the Stern thread, so it's a weird transition for me to be all "well, that's that, I guess...".

Thanks, Kyle. In all fairness to Beth O, whenever I've heard her talk about her modeling career, she's plainly said it was for "catalogs and stuff" and not a big deal, and that work dried up after her relationship with Howard became public.

I was thinking back to the show they did honoring Hank after his death the other day. It may be one of my favorite single Stern shows ever. It was very funny, and very touching. Everything from the widow Goodstein, there reminiscences of previous Hank appearances, right down to Robin breaking down crying when Howard was singing "You'll Never Walk Alone"... It was a great show. They show may not be what it used to be, but goddamn if Hank isn't that one thing I miss the most. If you guys had to try to narrow it down to a single favorite show, what would it be?

I want to take his side on it but he's just so fricking rigid about it. He probably thinks Robin's cancer came from when she was a smoker 25 years ago.
