Howard Stern on Sirius

[Dolemite]

Sal is a disgusting gay pervert. Who cares what he has to say about anything?

[Brand X]

Artie adds more to the daily dialog than Sal can ever hope to add. Granted I think a lot of Sal's more ridiculous bits are pretty damn funny, he could never add to the minute to minute like Artie does.

And yeah, that Slash interview was awesome. I knew he was crazy, but hearing some of the stuff come directly from him was pretty damn awesome. Especially since he seemed like a really low key guy during the interview. Tommy Lee teabagging him = lol.

[Port]

Artie was being a huge prick. Sal is completely right that nothing Artie has done off the Stern show has been funny, and he can't take it.

Gotta agree. Artie is hilarious because he found his element, which the Stern show. After the show ends, his career is toast.

But this is a valid point. Sal is fucked up from start to finish.

I especially enjoyed Slash's story about getting blown by the 14 year-old chick.

This is true. I've heard some of Artie's stand-up on Raw Dog (the Sirius comedy channel). He's just average at best, and seems to be filthy just for filthy's sake. The Stern show is indeed his element, as he's brilliant on it just being himself and reacting to things and telling stories.

That said, I heard the replay, and while I side with Artie just because I like him way better than Sal or Richard, I still think he got a little out of line. Still, who on Earth has a better job than Artie? He works 20 hours a week, sleeps and eats on the job, gets to tell his boss to fire him knowing he never will, throws shit and gets permission to smoke in the studio...he's got the life.

After the show ends, his career is toast.

That doesn't matter- after the show ends, he's retiring. Artie's already said he's a multi-millionaire and could retire right now if he wanted to.

Oh, and:

I'm shocked, but the RuPaul interview today was awesome and hilarious.

BTW, I was a little worried when Artie called in "sick" yesterday, but at least he was in today and seemed to finally patch up things with Sal. Sort of.

Actually, the speech Artie gave Sal and Richard was pretty brutal, but at the same time he was 100% right with everything he said to them. They are treated like shit because they act like retards. Artie is treated better and paid more because he is far more established and holds a far higher ranking in the hierarchy of the show. Basically, he told Sal and Richard that he's funnier, more talented, and deserves to be treated better, and if they didn't like it, tough shit. Worry about your own job and improving yourself.

It was kinda weird hearing the usually self-depreciating Artie talk this way, but he was just being honest. And correct.

That said, I am getting a little sick of Artie threatening to quit, like he did again last week.

I only caught the beginning of the Rupaul interview, but I will say the Tube Bar clips were fucking amazing. I had never heard any of those before and didn't realize The Simpsons ripped them off completely. Very good shit.

[Dolemite]

Yeah, especially the "Al Caholic." The Simpsons ripped those all off. Moe even has the same gruff voice as Red did.

FYI- George Takei is in-studio all week.

I'm glad you mentioned something because this literally made my morning. What a great surprise getting in my car this morning and hearing George Takei doing an announcement about William Shatner. It put a huge smile on my face.

Also, getting to see Scott the Engineer do his first stand up gig ever when I go to see Artie on Friday is going to be fucking classic. There will be detailed impressions following the show.

[Cowdisease]

Craig Gass just rose up in the ranks of my list of favorite recurring guests. His Alec Baldwin/Al Pacino story was hysterical.

And yay on Takei week. I was pissed when Artie called in "sick", but Takei and Gass definitely made up for it.
