"Huuuuuggggeeee"

"Thank Yooouuuaahhh"

Funny news segment today!

[nkc8246]

Ohh it's happening, it's brought up more and more each day. I can't wait for the day he makes that announcement.

It'll for sure be even more epic than the engagement announcement!!

Beth sounded pretty convincing on the wrap up show yesterday though. The whole "its not on my mind now and if I wanted a kid 10 years from now I would adopt"

I dunno..I think her clock is really ticking deep down.

That's huuuge.

[nkc8246]

I can't believe Knoxville has to do a self inflicted catheter twice a day after that Nitro Circus dirt bike wreck :eek

[junior94]

Ha! Well Philly people might recognize the new Miss Howard TV for May 2009 Becky, she was in Preston & Steve's (morning show for 93.3 WMMR) Totally Office Calendar March 2007. I think that was pre-implants though.

[justanotherfan]

Poor Blue Iris.

[Richard Belding]

was anyone else kind of disappointed with the seth macfarlane interview? i dunno i guess it was good but i guess i expected a little more. maybe a little longer

[hbktonyb]

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge....

[nkc8246]

I thought it was average.

I think Howard not really knowing that much about him had a lot to do with it.

[hbktonyb]

Someone actually took ludes!

[HoldemHart]

Someone actually took ludes!

:lol I thought of this thread immediately when I heard it.

[hbktonyb]

Great artie line today when they were talking about richard not knowing the meaning of 'favorite'.

Artie: "Richard, the english language sometimes has to create words. Like if someone says 'Richard is a smart guy', they had to make up the word 'Sarcastic'".

I looooved that line.

[hbktonyb]

I love when Howard comes back from commercial singing the song Fred is playing.

:lol:lol I caught that too!!

High pitch Eric's depictions of being with chicks was vile and funny at the same time...I didn't know how to react!!

[HoldemHart]

I like Colin Quinn and all but he's on the show too much, I'm over hearing his bad luck stories for now.

[hbktonyb]

I can't stand when hi pitch says clit. Its like he has a big load in his throat.

[HoldemHart]

Iron Sheik again?!?! Jesus Baba Booey, enough of the damn retreads. Lazy booking if you ask me.

[HoldemHart]

Artie's out again, looks like he's dancing again.

[HoldemHart]

Iron Sheik again?!?! Jesus Baba Booey, enough of the damn retreads. Lazy booking if you ask me.

Looks like I spoke too soon, didn't realize that Hugh Jackman was coming on the show today.

[hbktonyb]

I'm done with Iron Sheik...he's on like every couple of months.

[HoldemHart]

I'm shocked with how candid Hugh Jackman is being, fantastic interview by Howard.

[nkc8246]

I'm done with Iron Sheik...he's on like every couple of months.

Agree 100%.
Sheik is so played out..its the same bit everytime

[HoldemHart]

Agree 100%.
Sheik is so played out..its the same bit everytime

I mean, it's baffling why they keep bringing him back. I remember the last few times they got nothing but negative emails. It was funny the first few times but now it's just gotten absurd and played out.

[hbktonyb]

I now love Huge Jackman. Another guy that I could care less about, but once on Stern I love him.

[HoldemHart]

I now love Huge Jackman. Another guy that I could care less about, but once on Stern I love him.

:thumbsup Totally agree, I always thought he was kind of a tool but that opinion has completely changed.

Quick question for Stern fans.... Did any of you get into American Idol because Howard was talking about it all the time and you wanted to see what they were talking about?

[junior94]

Quick question for Stern fans.... Did any of you get into American Idol because Howard was talking about it all the time and you wanted to see what they were talking about?

God no, not me. I've ALWAYS abhorred reality TV, hearing Howard go on about it incessantly like a 13 year girl never changed that. One of my favorite things that Artie ever does is when he rags on the rest of them for watching that shit so much.

Hell, I still have trouble accepting that so many fans who love DMB enough to post on a forum would even at all be into something like American Idol.

:lol I'll go ahead and put you in the NO column.

[hbktonyb]

I've personally always liked Idol, but I'm sure there are a ton of things Howard got me into.

FOUR INCHES IS FINE! haha I love that drop.

[Richard Belding]

[nkc8246]

Quick question for Stern fans.... Did any of you get into American Idol because Howard was talking about it all the time and you wanted to see what they were talking about?

I watched the first couple of seasons on my own without Howards influence.
I did watch some Sanjaya out of curiosity to help me get into his vote for the worst campaign but i never actually voted :lol

Since Sanjaya I haven't been anywhere near Idol at all. Its more played out than Sheik to me!!

[Beefsteak1138]

I've never done a single thing in my life other than buy a Sirius Satellite Radio that I eventually stopped listening to that got stolen because of Stern.

[HoldemHart]

Does anyone know when they replayed the Seth Mcfarlane interview today? I missed it this week and was hoping to catch it on the replay.

[Beefsteak1138]

Does anyone know when they replayed the Seth Mcfarlane interview today? I missed it this week and was hoping to catch it on the replay.

I was listening around 7:30am and they were mid-interview.

[FunkyTeaParty]

Yeah, it started around 7:15.

Do we have any confirmation on if Artie was dancing yesterday?

[HoldemHart]

Yeah, it started around 7:15.

Do we have any confirmation on if Artie was dancing yesterday?

Thanks! I haven't heard anything about Artie yet but I'm sure he was fucked up. It's shitty how screwed up the baby gorilla is.

[hbktonyb]

I heard that Artie DID cancel his stand up show this weekend. Hmmm

[nkc8246]

So Artie's story is that he was VERY close to a relapse but his network of people kept him from picking up.

Believe what you will.

[HoldemHart]

:lol at this Kirstie Alley conversation.

[hbktonyb]

I hate this phony phone call w/ the asian woman and the clock/cock. It is so obviously fake it pissed me off.

[hbktonyb]

JJ comes in and they cut off one of my favorite Robin songs - I want to shoot my goo and Robin's big brown boobs, and then lick her vagina.

[HoldemHart]

JJ comes in and they cut off one of my favorite Robin songs - I want to shoot my goo and Robin's big brown boobs, and then lick her vagina.

I love how every Robin song has "goo" somewhere in it. I remember Howard saying a few months ago about how gross that actually was, it cracked me up because they listen to it daily.

[nkc8246]

:lol Ya...I remember Howard saying it was gross but then he said something like.. "Seriously though, what else rhymes with you and do"

[HoldemHart]

I can't believe Baba Booey is trying to get out of throwing the opening pitch.

[hbktonyb]

Booey is a bitch. And Angry Howard = Entertaining Howard.

[HoldemHart]

Booey is a bitch. And Angry Howard = Entertaining Howard.

Howard is at his best when he's pissed. Artie brought up a great point that Howard said he was mad at Sal but waited about 20 minutes to talk to him about it. I'm certain Sal was freaking out in the back.

[HoldemHart]

I loved listening to the crew reacting to Eric the Midgets insult battle with the caller. That was great.

[hbktonyb]

That's huge

[nkc8246]

I loved listening to the crew reacting to Eric the Midgets insult battle with the caller. That was great.

The best was near the end of it when Artie reacted before the guy even finished his insult :lol

[HoldemHart]

Holy shit, Howard had me cracking up when he was going through his favorite teachers during Robin's news.

[HoldemHart]

"It doesn't take Freud to realize this kid has a fear of intimacy issues"

Classic Artie line about JD today

[HoldemHart]

The commercials on Howard 100 and Howard 101 are absolutely atrocious, does anyone actually buy the shit they sell on these stations? Besides Ashley Madison of course, because apparently everyone who's married is cheating in this country.

[hbktonyb]

I never bought one thing from a commercial on Stern other than Heineken.

I love when Howard just starts calling people mother fuckers under his breath when he is pissed.

[HoldemHart]

John the Stutterer should never be on the air, it's painful to listen to. Worst bit ever.

[Beefsteak1138]

Artie going off on Lisa G today was hilarious.

[hbktonyb]

Artie sounded like he was about to blow. And I can't believe Robin is actually agreeing with Art!

[Beefsteak1138]

Artie sounded like he was about to blow. And I can't believe Robin is actually agreeing with Art!

She pissed me off during that segment. I wish she would just shut the hell up until the news.

[hbktonyb]

I wish they would fire the news dept. I hate them.

[nkc8246]

I wish they would fire the news dept. I hate them.

Lisa G especially...I can't stand her

[hbktonyb]

Artie is right, Lisa G is a C word

[nkc8246]

I love when Artie and Norm are in the studio together :lol

[hbktonyb]

I named my dog Doggy

[HoldemHart]

Did anyone hear the clip of John Mayer's new girlfriend? Holy shit, she had to be the dumbest chick on the planet.

[junior94]

I loved listening to the crew reacting to Eric the Midgets insult battle with the caller. That was great.

Actually I thought their whole "ho!!" reactions over and over again to all the "insults" were getting pretty old after not very long.

Hey I know this is going back to last week, but the day they were talking to JD about the wedding and they slipped in that little detail about Robin keeping this one secret to herself about how she was SO ashamed of something she did when she was really drunk (I'm not sure how long ago), and that Howard and Artie both know what it is but that she'd never tell -- was I the only one guessing it was that she went drunk driving? I mean, I'm sure actually the large bulk of us having technically been "drunk driving" at least once in our lives (since by the numbers it doesn't take very much to legally be drunk) but I got the feeling it was like she was just PLASTERED off her ass, and still drove. Just the way they were talking about it, that seems like the most likely and logical choice to me (particularly Artie saying he's seriously done "it" several hundred times in his life).

[junior94]

Oh and to me Artie is just showing more and more all the time just how ugly he is on the inside and letting his asshole nature shine thru. I'm so over him, he could finally eat a bullet tomorrow and I don't think I'd shed a single tear. I'm getting pretty tired of him. Also it's like the way he acts out, it's like he thinks he's the only one in the world with problems. Grow the fuck up and deal with your shit like a man already, dude.

It's incredibly narcissistic of him going on and on about how he's sure Lisa G is just dying for him to "fail". Gee, then how shocked am I that Robin of all people pretty much agreed with him :rolleyes

[hbktonyb]

Baba booey's throw...wow

This is hilarious radio

[HoldemHart]

The montage of news clips about the pitch is freaking hilarious!!

[Ascf33]

OMG the pitch thing is the greatest thing ever.

[HoldemHart]

I haven't laughed this hard for this long at the show in a long time....

"It's on the Gary Preview Page in Pink"

[Ascf33]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMI83E_7MIs

[HoldemHart]

Does anyone have a clip of Artie's reaction with Charlie the Usher? That's gotta be classic footage.

[HoldemHart]

I'm a bit surprised how slow this thread is considering how great the show has been today.

[Ascf33]

That's because its in the Chat section. Most of the goons stay in DMBc (thankfully)

[FunkyTeaParty]

I can't wait to listen to this.

The build up to that pitch and then how terribly, terribly awful it was is just fantastic.

[HoldemHart]

I can't wait to listen to this.

The build up to that pitch and then how terribly, terribly awful it was is just fantastic.

It was the probably the best hour of the show I've heard in a long time, I had to shut the door to my office because I was laughing so hard. You're in for a treat.

[HoldemHart]

That's because its in the Chat section. Most of the goons stay in DMBc (thankfully)

Very true, the number of "Stern sucks, Opie & Anthony rule!" posts have reduced dramatically.

[HoldemHart]

:lol at the caller who brought up all the people who threw a better pitch than Baba Booey.

[hbktonyb]

This is so hilarious. This is going to last for a loooooooong time. And Ralph calling in was great

[Ascf33]

I love how everything Gary feared has come true.

[HoldemHart]

Listening to the end of Robin's news and I've got to say this has been the best show I can remember. The Gary jokes were absolutely brilliant, Artie and Howard were absolutely on fire.

[HoldemHart]

This is so hilarious. This is going to last for a loooooooong time. And Ralph calling in was great

Ohh the song parodies are going to be endless, absolutely endless.

[jeepguy]

another great show tomorrow as well.....discussing JD's Dad's wedding

[hbktonyb]

I love when it just started, and all of a sudden Artie and Howard started hysterically laughing. I was cracking up

[junior94]

Baba booey's throw...wow

This is hilarious radio

I'm just stunned, given the practice he supposedly did throwing with Jackson, that it was THAT bad. And yea I mean I realize being out there in a full stadium is a whole other element, but still... :lol

[HoldemHart]

"Would you rather be infected with swine flu or have footage of you throwing a baseball like that?"

[HoldemHart]

I would do anything to have a Ben Stern hour long show on the stations. Everything that man says is funny to me, every single thing.

[HoldemHart]

scott depace is just a fascinating human being

He really is, it's amazing how different he is than any other person on the show.

[HoldemHart]

Artie was kind of a dick when Johnny Damon called in, I was kinda surprised.

[hbktonyb]

I haaaaaaaaate Depace, even more than Lisa G

[HoldemHart]

JD's wedding speech was breathtaking.....

[nkc8246]

JD's wedding speech was breathtaking.....

"Should I start now"

.....

"Ok, That's it I guess"

:lol

Is anyone as inarticulate as that guy is? I would think it was schtick but it's obviously not.

[hbktonyb]

JD is so much like Napolean its ridiculous. Radio gold

[HoldemHart]

I think it's great the Kimmel played baba booey's pitch last night.

"We're now looking for someone to raise his two sons"....:lol

[hbktonyb]

There are so many news reports! haha

[hbktonyb]

How funny is Riley Martin talking about Booey. He has the best "other" show on the channels.

[junior94]

Artie was kind of a dick when Johnny Damon called in, I was kinda surprised.

I'm not, really. Artie has always had this side to him that's a hateful, homophobic, self loathing asshole, and it's gotten to be his dominant personality lately and he's practically gone off the deep end.

Artie, enough with the cracks that have to do with white chicks fucking black guys. We're plenty aware now it's not really simply coming from a place of "humor". :rolleyes

[HoldemHart]

That being said, I think Artie's cracks on Baba Booey the past few days have been his best ever imo.

But I agree, he gets carried overboard on his rants from time to time.

[junior94]

And I've come to the conclusion that I'm really annoyed by Artie's "extreme" laugh. The one he's been falling into a lot lately where he's just whaling in laughter, so much that it practically puts a stop to everyone else on the show, that "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhaaaa ahaaaahaaaa!!!!!"

Plus it so often seems to hit right on a point where the joke being made somehow is saying that he's better than someone else in some particular way, or this other person is more pathetic than him, etc (& that he seems to keep it going for like more than 20 seconds at a time.. it's like c'mon dude, there's not that much stuff that is that funny that much of the time). And the especially strange kicker is, part of what annoys me about it -- I know it's a genuine laugh, and yet it still kinda sounds forced, I think. Figure that one out :p

Though, I'll concede the possibility that I'm getting more and more fed up with Artie overall lately, and so without even really thinking about it directly I'm finding all this specific reasons for why he's being a prick, or annoys me, etc.

On a whole other note, I had an odd discovery the other day with a Howard TV episode. I DL'd the Norm interview and was loving watching it, and I knew from beforehand the file was about 35:00 long. Well then so towards the end Norm makes the joke about oh so you're just kicking me out now, to which Howard retorts that "c'mon, we've been here for like an hour and a half!" And I'm thinking whaaa?? Oh, they must be making some kind of exaggeration joke. I mean, I know obviously plenty of segments and bits have been edited for their broadcast on HTV, but then I found out later that about 90 minutes really was how long the interview was. Man if I actually paid for HTV I think I'd be upset. Of all the damn interviews you're gonna cut more than half the material from, it's gonna be Norm?! He's one of the greatest guests ever! :ugh

You ever checked out the Stern Fan Network? Plenty of people over there that absolutely agree with you.

Everytime there is a chick in there everyone acts like its the hottest chick in the world then I go to the website and see the pics and I'm always like WTF

I haven't been over there in quite a long time, probably over a year. And I didn't end up posting very much, as I'm sure most of you guys have found it's fucking nuts over there, what I saw didn't exactly motivate me to want to keep sticking around. Between some unbelievably annoying trolls, and also Mods that won't allow you to share even barely the slightest dissenting opinion on something to do with the show before practically banning you...

:lol Sometimes I'm absolutely baffled about the ladies they go on and on about.

I might've talked about this point already in here, I forget, but I think at least part of this is due to Howard getting older and not feeling he wants or has to be so overly critical anymore of women. He obviously was far more blunt in the future, calling out a woman if he didn't think was all that attractive. But I think now (& maybe a product of his therapy, who knows) perhaps the thought process is "what am I REALLY getting after telling this woman to her face she's not very good looking after all, and doing so in this very public forum and likely hurting her feelings?" And I think that's a good thing.

Of course, yes there's certainly a difference between being somewhat sensitive like that to a girl's feelings, and going out of your way practically to pour praise on a woman's hotness when it's not really the reality. Then again obviously, it's all subjective. There have been a number of girls on there that I know a lot of fans wouldn't be crazy about, thought a girl was maybe too plain looking, or had a little too much meat on her bones, that I thought I'd be thrilled and lucky to have her as a girlfriend.. that kinda thing.

[HoldemHart]

Baba booey's throw was number 1 on ESPN's Not Top 10 this week....I love it

[junior94]

I'm watching these progression of HTV segments about all the flack Gary's taking over the pitch. Now obviously a core element to this show has always been about breaking each other's balls, but in my opinion Artie has so often gone right past that into just simply being an asshole. Plus more and more lately he seems way too impressed by his own jokes, which is something I absolutely HATE when a comedian does :rolleyes

[Richard Belding]

anyone else see artie on SNL tonight? he looks really skinny and real good. even though he's been a douche lately.

[hbktonyb]

You guys are crazy, Artie is the one w/ balls on the show now, the way Howard used to be in the 90's.

He looked good on SNL.

[hbktonyb]

Having said that, Artie and Robin really needed to shut up while Stiller and Kimmel were in the studio. It was getting ridiculous that Howard couldn't get a word out.

[Digitalfury2248]

It was. Robin took over the interview for a bit there... uncalled for. And I love Artie saying how he feels, but he dragged out the whole hating-Tom-Cruise thing too long, especially when he was getting mad at Jimmy. Too angry. Too much. I loved how at one point, Howard said something like "can I ask a question here?"

I agree. Its like when they have A-listers in the studio, Robin gets so freakin excited that she interrupts everything. And Artie was just out of control.

I think there's a difference between having balls and just being an annoying prick.

[junior94]

I was just watching the video from the Intern Beauty Pageant, ya know it has to be kinda difficult to be a youngish single guy working there, especially if you're on a lower rung. Because even if you get a good vibe from one of the girls, so many of them are attractive (the girl who won, Brittany, jesus she was sexy I fell in love right away :D), you don't know what to do about it only because it's gotta be SUCH a cliche at this point that EVERY guy there probably hits on them in some way, so the last thing I'd wanna do is just be another in a long line of guys trying to get somewhere.

[hbktonyb]

I think there's a difference between having balls and just being an annoying prick.

Some people would argue that Howard was more of the annoying prick back in the day when he was mad at people....he used to wish cancer on dudes. And he would call people fags all the time.

Well I'll preface this by reminding the thread that I didn't start listening with any kind regularity until like late 2000-ish. I only heard very scant pieces of the show here and there before that, though of course thru general pop culture awareness I knew stuff about it.

Having said that, ever since collecting Howard TV episodes since 2006 I have gotten to see a number of old KROCK segments. This may just sound like a rationalization, but I believe it to be true. When Howard used to use "fag" as much as he did, there was still genuine comedy behind it, and it was just for the sake of the joke. When Artie does it (& especially lately) there's virtually no doubt in my mind it's born out of the hatred and disgust for the lifestyle he has in his heart, and I mean it's not even worth "pointing out" his severe homophobia at this point because even the most casual listener knows how painfully obvious that is.
And also of course his own terrible self-loathing plays a part.

This is true. I'm a huge fan of Artie though...he's been a little too vocal at times, but I like how he says what he feels (or maybe he doesn't even feel it, he is just doing it for shock value, like Howard used to do).

I love Jessie Ventura.

[Richard Belding]

jesse and his 9/11 conspiracies are getting old and annoying

[junior94]

jesse and his 9/11 conspiracies are getting old and annoying

I used to not mind hearing him when he was a champion against religious fanaticism and too blind faith, I agreed with him, but he went off the deep end with this 9/11 insanity. Those people give smart minded liberals a bad name.

[hbktonyb]

He was kind of convincing today, but I in no way believe his views on 9/11. I do agree with him on most everything else.

I loved Howie ripping on Sal today.

[junior94]

So later today I'll be watching the Kimmel interview. Damn, I hadn't been following his personal life in awhile... apparently him and Sarah Silverman making up/breaking up is roughly the equivalent to Michael Jordan "retiring" from the NBA :lol

[HoldemHart]

Ugh!! Enough of the updates about Lisa G's love life

[HoldemHart]

I know I might get flamed for this but I really don't enjoy the Howard TV girl of the month segments, they're only good for a few laughs. I'd rather hear the guys in the studio just make fun of each other than listen to some dumb bitch ramble on about her sexual experiences (which I don't believe 95% of the time)

It's funny you say that, because I've long thought that if I were just depending on show audio and experiencing it that way, for both those introductory segments and things like Sybian rides, yes I'd get bored very quickly as well. It's why I just prefer to watch them via HTV.

I agree...they are only good for Howard TV, terrible for the radio.

[HoldemHart]

Jesse James interview was good today.

Howard: "How many times a week?"
Jesse:"8"
Howard: "Seriously? All eight with Sandra?"


That was fucking priceless

[HoldemHart]

I really want Bruce Springsteen to show up on American Idol just to see Artie get out of his bet.

[hbktonyb]

Wow, JD is radio gold.

[HoldemHart]

I could listen to Howard talk about his parents all damn day, it's always funny.

[hbktonyb]

Howard...your father and I don't agree with running. You'll catch cold.

[HoldemHart]

Just now listening to the Stiller interview, Artie was all over the place.

[HoldemHart]

Kimmel is so damn good on the Stern show. He really fits in well in the studio and he's really quick.

[hbktonyb]

Kimmel is the man, I watch his show every night now. I wish he could be a little more uncensored though

[Richard Belding]

hahahaha the special this week is already amazing. sal wants traction and and gilbert making abe hirschfeld repeat his joke over and over and some good richard simmons today.

[HoldemHart]

This Corey Feldman interview is classic, Howard was absolutely incredible during his line of questioning.

[HoldemHart]

Beetle's segment today= radio gold

Now I hope he can do a good job backing up Rafer Alston tonight, if you don't know what I'm talking about google the image of NBA player Anthony Johnson. He's the spitting image of beetle.

I'm a Packers fan so I've never cared about the Browns losing but Cavs and Indians...I've had enough. :BANG

The NBA may step in and rig it so they get the Kobe vs. Lebron final. Its the only final that will produce huge ratings.

[junior94]

Who's the least favorite Wack Pack member for you guys?

[Beefsteak1138]

High Pitch

[HoldemHart]

Beetlejuice.....hands down.

[thebridge15]

beetle

except for his song which is hilarious

[HoldemHart]

whoops I totally misread that, Beetle is my favorite wack packer

least favorite would be Marianne from Brooklyn.

[nkc8246]

Marianne is completely worthless I agree.

Hank is still my favorite...I wish he was still around

[junior94]

whoops I totally misread that, Beetle is my favorite wack packer

least favorite would be Marianne from Brooklyn.

Well duh in retrospect I should've simply said, who are your MOST & LEAST favorite Wack Packers...

I'm not necessarily saying he's my favorite, and maybe a lot of fans are "over" him by now, but I'm still entertained by ETM, just if nothing else by how incredibly deluded he is, that he wouldn't have 1/100000000th the life that he has now as far as attention or exposure or whatever if it wasn't for the show, yet he continues to act like a giant prick towards them.

[Beefsteak1138]

Tie between Bigfoot and Beetle as my favorite, it is.

High Pitch or Marianne are my least.

[hbktonyb]

Least favorite has to be ass napkin ed. He is so boring.

I love Double A, High Pitch (b/c of the Kelly Clarkson calls), and Beetle

[junior94]

Yea Ass Napkin Ed is definitely towards the bottom of the list for me, I agree, whatever his whole thing is gets boring very quick.

I only just a couple days ago caught part of the video from the Best Of The Wrap Up Show of when in relation to everything about Gary's pitch, Artie was referencing this conversation he'd had with Depace, who I'd not even realized before, I guess he's a Phillies fan (well I knew Will was, but..) and Artie makes the crack ".. and the Phillies getting their rings... which they don't even deserve..." Dude, could you be any more pathetic lately? I'd LOVE to hear Artie's reasoning for why the Phillies don't deserve their World Series rings.

(of course immediately after they won last fall, my guess was the haters would go to something like "oh gimme a break, you beat the Rays...")

I think Artie was just breaking balls, I don't think he legitimately thinks they don't deserve to win. He's just stiring the pot a bit I think.

[HoldemHart]

The Lou Diamond Phillips interview was hilarious, I loved how Fred kept playing "Come to my window" it cracked me up every damn time.

[HoldemHart]

Baba Booey just announced on Bubba the Love Sponge that Francis Ford Coppola is coming on the show next week, that has the opportunity to be a fantastic interview.

[hbktonyb]

I can't wait until some live shows again. And..Gilbert is coming back in June!!!

[HoldemHart]

So happy they are back live!!

[HoldemHart]

I feel bad for Baba Booey, that whole procedure sounds downright hellacious.

[hbktonyb]

OMG, I pray I never have to get that. Poor Booey.

I'd still rather get the procedure than the pitch...

[HoldemHart]

Jeff the Drunk has the best name for Artie's new book: Getting a load off my chest.

That is fucking classic.

[hbktonyb]

I love Gilbert...him and Artie were out of control today. The news reported that Howard had a meeting with Artie after the show. hmmm

[Joruus]

I love Gilbert...him and Artie were out of control today. The news reported that Howard had a meeting with Artie after the show. hmmm

Howard has had to use the dump button a couple of times when Gilbert is in the studio. Was that the case this visit?

[HoldemHart]

I love Gilbert...him and Artie were out of control today. The news reported that Howard had a meeting with Artie after the show. hmmm

It was painful to listen to, I rarely turn the show off but I couldn't listen to the news today. It was Gilbert and Artie just going back and forth while cracking up, the only problem was that they weren't being particularly funny imo. You could tell Howard was getting a bit pissed.

[HoldemHart]

Howard has had to use the dump button a couple of times when Gilbert is in the studio. Was that the case this visit?

They were out of control with the N-Bombs

[hbktonyb]

I didn't notice any dumps. I don't mind when they get a little wild when Gilbert is in, but today was just ridiculous.

[HoldemHart]

I'm listening to the West Coast feed now, I'm really anxious to see if they address Artie's behavior yesterday.

[HoldemHart]

Yucko the clown in the studio.....time to change the station.

[HoldemHart]

Wow, I can't stand Yucko but Artie was just downright fucking mean to him the entire segment. He was just being a complete prick

[hbktonyb]

Artie was def. a little more toned down today. How late was he this morning?

[HoldemHart]

Artie was def. a little more toned down today. How late was he this morning?

10-15 minutes, not too bad.

[nkc8246]

I didn't notice any dumps. I don't mind when they get a little wild when Gilbert is in, but today was just ridiculous.

I agree completely. That news segment was unlistenable.

[junior94]

I feel bad for Baba Booey, that whole procedure sounds downright hellacious.

Actually I've had this procedure done myself, MULTIPLE times over the years, and my mom is just coming off it from like a week ago. We've had plenty of kidney stones between myself, my mother and my brother. I mean I've never had to have multiple Lithiotripsies for the same stone (that's the term for the procedure, of them blasting it with ultrasonic waves from outside the body) but I have had the thing done 3 times since 2001 for different stone "episodes". Yea the whole actual thing itself is nothing, because you're asleep, but the first piss you take once it's done is pretty rough, it's basically 100% blood you piss out, but they also have you on some solid painkillers, so...
I've also had the procedure done once that apparently he might have to have, where they go in thru the side of your back to access the stone in the ureter there. It ESPECIALLY sucked for me, because you have to wear a urine collection bag that's directly connected to you for a couple days post-op, it's supposedly to only stay for like maybe 3 days, but I wasn't healing properly, I have to have the thing attached to me for a fucking MONTH.

But yea I also had a stent put in for my most recent one a couple years ago, and I was NOT awake for its removal. and what pissed me off even more as I'm sitting there squirming and trying to stifle a scream in the doctor's office he keeps giving me these looks and being like "oh c'mon, get it under control", like it's some walk in the park. I was like are you serious asshole? I wanted to deck the jackass :lol

I love Gilbert...him and Artie were out of control today. The news reported that Howard had a meeting with Artie after the show. hmmm

Yea I just heard about this from another site... VERY interesting. Although I'm surprised it hit the news already, I would've thought Howard would want that kept totally on the DL.

holdemhart - I also can't fucking stand Yucko, I've never found him even remotely funny, and he's just annoying, but with how annoying I've found Artie lately with him being such an asshole himself, I'm now especially curious to check this segment out.

[hbktonyb]

Howard on Letterman Monday!

[HoldemHart]

Letterman is pulling out the big guns to compete with Conan. It should be good, Howard usually kills on Letterman.

[nkc8246]

I wonder if he will end up doing all 3 segments again?

[HoldemHart]

I wonder if he will end up doing all 3 segments again?

I hope so, Dave and Howard are great together.

[HoldemHart]

I thought Howard was great during the Denise Richards interview, she seems like a huge phony but Howard had some great one-liners

[hbktonyb]

Today was a good example of Artie talking up during an interview, for the good! It is obvious that he knows a lot more about Copolla's career than Howard, and I love when he quotes the Godfather, probably b/c it is one of my favorite movies.

[HoldemHart]

Can't wait for the song parodies for Robin the Rollerblader

What's the over/under on how long it takes for someone to come up with a song? one show? two?

[HoldemHart]

Howard's broadway song was fucking hilarious...

[thebridge15]

im gonna doubt that artie knew that the sun was the closest star to the earth even though he bitched out that guy for not knowing

though that was still pretty pathetic :lol

[hbktonyb]

North star?

[hbktonyb]

Wow Dave was mentioned on the wrap-up show! Gary said that he knows he is a great musician and he saw a great interview with him on tv this week. He said that he met him once at K-rock and Gary mentioned it to him, but he wasn't sure if Dave would be interested in Howard's show because he didn't think he was a fan of his music. He did say he was a cool guy and right now he has a really good story.

Interesting...its too bad because last week would have been the week to do it - with the all-DMB radio station, and the fact that they were in NYC all week!

I heard that as well. I think Gary was bullshitting with his answer. I think the fact that Dave isn't on the show has a lot more to do with the fact that he doesn't need the publicity than it has to do with Gary's opinion on Dave being an "interesting guest". So you mean to tell me Lisa Lampanelli and Joan Rivers four times a year is interesting?

[HoldemHart]

Howard was good on Letterman as always. Dave always look uncomfortable when Howard talks about ratings.

The bit with the trannies was pretty fake...They knew who the man was.

[BotheDMBFan]

They should just have Norm MacDonald on every day.

[HoldemHart]

holy shit this discussion on the weather guy from LA is hilarious.

Artie: He wouldn't know irony if it crawled up his ass and set up camp

Did anyone listen to Sam Simon yesterday on the show?

I almost puked when I heard him say that his ex-wife (Jennifer Tilley) told him not to do the Simpsons that is was a bad idea, then when they got divorced after 7 years, she got a percentage of the royalties. Here's where I almost puked.....

She has made over 100 MILLION dollars on royalties over the years!!

Unbelieveable!!!

Now I know why she does crappy movies and plays poker......

WOW.... 100 Million ... crazy shit

[hbktonyb]

Yeah, he has said that before. So ridiculous. Almost as bad as Paul McCartney's ex wife with the one leg.

I'd give it a 6.5

I'm not a big Jack Black fan either so maybe that is swaying my score.

The Cloris Leachman story was pretty funny but other than that it was average I thought.

[HoldemHart]

Has anyone else noticed that Howard is very short with Artie these days? There seems to be more and more instances when Artie will crack a joke and or tell a story and Howard will just completely disregard and ignore it.

You can definitly tell he's getting aggravated.

Just noticed this thread is on page 100, that's awesome

He has no right to have a show. Artie was definitly over the top but Joe had NOOOOO clue how to handle comedians.

there are no words to describe it. you have to see it for yourself. it was so bad it was fascinating to watch. artie was a little over the top but you could tell he was sitting backstage thinking to himself "what the fuck am i doing here?" and had to liven things up a little. and the best part about it was you could see how pissed off joe was. it was amazing

[FunkyTeaParty]

Buck: You are about two minutes from dragging me into a dark place.
Artie: Let's do it, baby, let's make some news.
Buck: If I'm going to do that I am going to do it with an A-list guest.
Artie: How are you going to do that? By hanging outside Letterman?

[hbktonyb]

Booey just said that Buck may be on the show this week.

:lol:lol I love it!!!

[junior94]

artie is a god.

:rolleyes *yawn*

I find it curious when people confuse brashness with being clever and interesting. "Yea, he's old school and tells it like it is!"

I'm really starting to think so. For instance yesterday when Artie was five minutes late Howard said "Good we'll get five minutes to talk".

You can definitly tell he's getting aggravated.

Good, it's about goddamn time. Artie needs to be taken down a peg or two. If 2001 Artie could see 2009 Artie, 2001 would be beside himself in a myriad of ways.

He has no right to have a show. Artie was definitly over the top but Joe had NOOOOO clue how to handle comedians.

I appear to be one of the very few people on this entire site that actually likes Joe Buck (for the record, for what it's worth, I can't fucking stand Tim McCarver). And whereas a lot of times when I see a lot of people hating on a celebrity, even if I don't personally agree, I can kinda understand why, but it's not really the case with Buck. I mean I'm not some fanboy, not like he's my "favorite" announcer ever or anything, but I dig him. And hell even a lot of local people here in Philly were griping during the playoffs last year that he was basically showing favoritism to the Dodgers, and I just didn't really see it.

Having said all that, I haven't seen a single minute of this new show of his, but I certainly totally concede the possibility that it could be dreadful. Just like anything else can.

Artie's perception of how well he did was a bit skewed if you ask me

I'm shocked! :eek Artie probably thought he came off better and more superior than he likely actually did?? No!


:rolleyes

[hbktonyb]

I thought he was pretty funny on Buck's show.

Well solely going by that (again, not seeing the actual show myself), while I have to admit it's incredibly lame that Buck's favorite site is TMZ, but damn... congrats Artie for pretty much becoming a full blown bitter douchebag by now. I could maybe see if Buck was antagonizing him and being an ass in the first place, but if he just wasn't what Artie deemed a quality interview and/or host, that doesn't warrant Artie being a shit.

Thing is, yea we all know that Howard is one of the biggest culprits of loving all that teenage girl fluff shit, he'd be into TMZ and whatnot, and Artie often calls him on it on the show, but Artie's gotta know that plays much differently when it's someone else. It's like forgetting that you're not just sitting around with your family and you start saying something because you're so used to it being perfectly understood, but it's not.
