Today was Howard Stern's last day on terrestrial radio. There was a big turnout outside the Howard Stern building as Howard and gang addressed the crowd before the show signed off.
What did you think of the final days of broadcast? And will you sign up for Sirius to listen to uncensored Howard?
Whatever man. As I listened to him more every day, he got more obnoxiously narcissistic.
He'd probably be a lot better without all those goddamn commercials though. And censorship.
STFU Cowutopia
KROCK's almost dead. Fuck radio and fuck Z100.
Who?
Preston & Steve > Stern
Listening to the broadcast right now. It's sad :(
Going to have to get a satelite radio soon, just hate all of Sirius' shitty hardware.
Chux they are New York radio stations. The only one I listen to is Q104.3 for classic rock and on Sundays they have Little Steven's Underground Garage and "Out of the Box." Commercial radio is dead.
Probably a little late to post this, but they are broadcasting it on www.yahoo.com. They also have pictures of the event.
I watched the stream on Yahoo. Heard from someone who was there that the cheers were pre-recorded and pumped through the speaker system. I heard a lot of angry yelling and taunting, too, which made me laugh. Also he didn't thank Billy West or Jackie Martling because he is a giant ungreatful scumbag.
Old news. It has been dead for years.Quote:

Which won't be a factor on Sirius.
He had Jackie in studio yesterday and thanked him profusely. It was great to hear them together again.Quote:

I remember them talking about Billy West a few weeks ago.
But he thanked 8 thousand people today and didn't thank Billy. That's a deliberate snub.
Stern circa '90-'95 was great, but he's a hypocrite, an ingrate, and a thief, and now he's way over the hill. Opie and Anthony are carrying the torch and doing an edgier show than he's ever done.

As for Sirius, there's some good deals out there. I'll probably pick it up, and the next car I get will probably come with it, anyway.
Those two fools didn't last a year in Dallas. They're pathetic with the whole "get our fans to ambush another radio jock b.s."Quote:

Opie hangs up the phone and then he proceeds to call the cab company.
Other than that, they sucked!
Thanks for reminding me of why I don't listen to that kind of garbage.Quote:

Yesterdays show was particulary good. Patrice O'Neal told a crazy story.
They were on Live 105.3 about 3 years ago. They tried to mess with Russ Martin (The #1 show in all of DFW) and he got them tossed out of here. Their show was here for a good 6 months. Nobody cared.Quote:

And Howard did mention this morning (early) that he had a message from Billy West, but they didn't have time to play it. At least they didn't totally forget him.
Russ is a radio god. They shouldn't have fucked with him.

I have never found Stern's show to be funny.
Everyone on it is white trash (well, except robin, but she still sucks) and listening to retards talk for an hour is not my idea of comedy.
In message board format it's ok.
HAHA, IDIOT.Quote:

The last few years it's just been nonstop egomaniacal bullshit. He did a complete 180 and went from sucking Bush's cock every day to turning his show into one long John Kerry commercial. He went from praising and defending Clear Channel when they did shit to other people to rallying against them when they fired him, as if that somehow was going too far. Now he's doing the whole cart thing, which never made sense to me. Everyone I know HATES best of, and listens to old stuff they like on mp3. Why should we care that Howard Stern doesn't have as much rerun material to do instead of new shows? Maybe he won't take half the year off on vacation now.
Phil Hendrie is the funniest and most talented guy on the radio and has been for a long time.
I've been looking at satellite radio lately, and Sirius is really lacking. XM has EVERYTHING that isn't Howard Stern and their hardware is leaps and bounds ahead of Sirius in every way. Sirius gave Howard Stern 500 million dollars because they'd be out of business by now otherwise; I think they're just prolonging the inevitable.
Just thought I'd let everyone know - at http://www.streamerp2p.com/ (you need to load a small Windows app) you can stream O/A live and soon Stern. I've been using that along with http://www.mininova.org (who post torrents of O/A shows like 15-30 minutes after their done) to listen to Opie and Anthony for the past week. I used to listen to stern now and then back in the day but I'll take Bax and O'Brien out of Springfield, MA or OandA before I listen to Stern now. The Howard XM ads and him saying how he doesn't even want to be in the same room as "Bubba the Love Sponge" but he now employs him are funny as hell.
I had XM before but it just isn't worth the $13 when I'd rather just play my Archos MP3 player, it is nice for discovering new music I suppose. I was checking out the hardware tonight too, Sirius stuff is sad, really. XM has a few portable options and Sirius has basically an RIAA-restricted MP3 recorder that you can dock at home at listen to time-delayed on the go. And I've had Sirius music channels through Dish and the song selection is much weaker than XM, they tend to repeat alot more. When they get the encryption cracked and I can get a grey-market reciever (maybe even one that can recieve both) maybe I'll listen then. Until then it's streaming and torrents for me!
Hundreds of them (about 250). They were held at bay for a while, but they eventually got to him, and harassed the shit out of him, made him go around the back of the Hard Rock to get in. It was funny.Quote:

Howard Stern is more just fart and titty jokes and juvenile stuff like that. Opie and Anthony is dark comedy. The show is 90% about humor, and will often make light of dead babies, diseases, decapitated children and all kinds of horrible shit, and manage to be hysterical doing it. It's also really mean spirited, downright viscious at times (got a lot of that Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn feel). No one else does that kind of dark, edgier New York humor on the radio.Quote:
Originally Posted by gamevet
The best stuff, though, is Anthony and Norton riffing off each other, Anthony's impressions and characters, and the great one-liners. Also they have the best stable of comics out there, and they know how to use comics to make good radio like no other show does. I could care less about the stunts, taped bits, etc. They get people talking but they don't make for the best laughs.
The E! show was a waste of potential. All it ever was was strippers and uniteresting celebrity interviews. Even when Howard's show was good, the E! Show was usually just pixelated titties and some woman who doesn't deserve a voice box jabbering.Quote:

They become like a drive-time family, and it's hard to make the switch.Quote:

But yeah, it's hard to say goodbye, but a lot of people are going to now that Howie's leaving for greener pastures, and many of them might just check out XM instead.
You're kidding right? Hendrie is just the same boring joke conversations with the same characters and the same stupid people who think the show is real calling in. Oh, and of course his occasional right-wing rant. I'd put Hendrie below even Bob & Tom's neutered dick & fart joke comedy.Quote:

The only other choice is NPR, which aside from Democracy Now! should not be listened to while operating heavy machinery.
I'd kill to get even a sliver of the kind of talk radio you guys get.
I love Stern but I'm not switching to Sirius just yet. Bob Dylan is planning to have a show in March, I may may look into that. Depends.
Please tell me you are kidding. Phil Hendrie is the definition of hack.Quote:

I guess it's OK if you like ugly, hairy lesbians whining on about Tookie being innocent or some shit going on in some 3rd world hellhole. I love independant media, but not when it's slanted FARTHER left than many mainstream outlets. Should be called Socialism Now! I actually listen to many different political viewpoints but I just can't stand it when either side is too entrenched in emotions to consider things from different perspectives.Quote:

So, you can say what you want about the programming; you can say it's slanted left because it doesn't support your worldview, that it's only 'one side of the issue', etc. But don't sit there and talk shit about someone who has a shiny reputation as a journalist and humanitarian and expect not be called out on it.

Direct TV has XM radio and broadcasts O&A as well for free.

If you only have an MP3 player, download some great bits from www.oavirus.com and fill er up! O&A is actually cool about fan sites and underground syndication. Howard on the other hand, tried to get Sirius to not let users record his show, and may actually succeed.
I didn't like it at first, either. I thought it was Politically Incorrect with Bill Mahr, but all the guests were idiots, and all they would ever do is verbally smash each other in the face. But after a while I realized that comdians smashing each other in the face was hilarious. It was a good show but you have to accept that it's not actually about the politics.Quote:

$10/month now, but in march it goes up to $12/month. It might be a "first 3 months is $10" kind of thing, actually. Can't really remember.Quote:

He's doing it all by himself. He's got over 40 distinct characters in his head, and can hold a conversation with 4 of them at the same time and you wouldn't even know it was the same guy doing all the voices if he didn't announce it at the beginning of the show. How funny would any of these other radio people be if you took away their Artie's, Robins, Norton's, etc. and made them do a one man show, with no real guests, just the people that call in for 3 hours a day?
To not find Phil Hendrie's sense of humor funny (I can see why some people don't, it's in the same vein as the Three Stooges and a little too zany/outrageous for some) is one thing, but to call the guy a hack is just plain silly. To be able to believably do a 40+ character show all by yourself believably takes tremendous talent, and all kinds of legendary comedians like George Carlin and yes Howard Stern make the pilgrimage to watch Phil do his show.
Gozen: Phil Hendrie is a Democrat, the only issue he agrees with Bush on is the war (and before 2004 he'd never voted for a Republican for any office in his entire life). It's silly to call a guy right wing just because he agrees with George Bush on one issue; he's openly pro choice, pro gay marriage, anti-intelligent design, regularly trashes the religious right, etc. Not buying into the radical left's bullshit about the war on terror doesn't mean you aren't a democrat or a liberal anymore, let alone some sort of right wing ideologue. What drug induced mindset do you live in that "Democracy Now!" is not radically left wing yet Phil Hendrie is some sort of Michael Savage clone?
Mzo: Nice snipe dude, you're the coolest
Absolutely not. Very rarely did they bring their stand up material in. Definately not the core regulars. A couple of the guys who were just on once or twice would do that, but not Norton, DiPaolo, Giraldo, Patrice, Keith Robinson, etc. They were mostly trying to make each other laugh, not the audience, and they're not going to do that by regurgitating material that they all know.Quote:

Lol, this is so true. I'll go to see Patrice twice in 3 months, and 60% of the set will have turned over already. And then I've seen tapes of Vos from the friggin 80s and half the set is the same as what he's doing now.Quote:

Neal Boortz is the same on all accounts, and is STILL a right-wing douchebag, as is Hendrie. They're both jingoistic morons who masquerade under the banner of libertarianism. Atleast Boortz is passionate about something worthwhile (fair tax) even though he takes it to the extreme sometimes (unrestricted capitalism rallies, etc.).Quote:

The man is the worst of both worlds; talking head pundit and unfunny talk radio personality.
Perhaps my choice of wording was poor. Maybe they weren't segueing into stand up but they often times did seem to be segueing into pre-existing jokes that didn't easily tie into what they were discussing. I'm not saying that this happened constantly but it seemed to happen with enough regularity for me to take notice. I could be wrong but this is how many of their jokes came off to me. It was still funny, I still watched the show, just a small gripe.Quote:

Hoo Hoo i invented everything.....Tell em Fred..
Fred ain't saying shit
plus have patrice in studio lately has been great and i love twitchles
