Howard Stern on Sirius

Yeah, George has a "full-time" career and lives in California, but he should definitely do the show more. At least one week a month.

I could live with that.

How was the Artie taping last night, Cow?

It was good. Artie had some funny jokes, but there was one set that I already heard in the Stern show. I wished we went on longer. Some of the comics he introduced were good, others not so good.

I can never get enough Gilbert. When he's there for the news it's a riot. I love Takei too but I think he'd get on my nerves if he were there all the time. He already repeats himself a lot.

I don't think Stern's guest quality has dropped much either. He never got many big names even on terrestrial radio. The people who he did get weren't the A listers they are now when he got them (Jim Carrey, Sienfeld, Schwarzenegger). At Sirius he's still had Donald Trump, Martha Stewart. Hulk Hogan, Luke Wilson, M. Night Shamaylan, Ozzy, Ivan Rightman, Roger Daltry, and many more.

Hoooooooo, boy! I just got an interesting bit of gossip.

My coworker stopped by my office to ask me about the Artie Lange Comedy Central taping last night. She commented that she met one of the comedians who did the warm up last night at a party. The comedian (whose name I can't remember, but he's Iranian and was funny at the show) told her about a pre-interview he did with Artie Lange and asked him this question. I am paraphrasing here, and I acknowledge that this could be nothing more than hearsay, but if it's true, it would explain a lot of things.

Comedian: So how's the love life going?

Artie Lange: It's not going well. In fact, I shouldn't even be telling you this, but I broke up with my last girlfriend because I was using heroin again.

Holy shit. If this is true, it would explain Artie's recent absences and why Artie said he wanted to go to rehab for 28 days.

The comedian told my coworker that Artie looked like a complete mess when he interviewed him. And here's a bonus question and answer because I thought it was funny.

Comedian: So you've done Mad TV, Beer League, movies, and the Howard Stern show. During your career, when was the time you had the best ladies.

Artie Lange: When I was on cocaine. As soon as I whipped it out, all the supermodels flocked to you.

It wouldn't suprise me if Artie was using again. He kicked the habit on his own that one time, but he never got the professional help he needs to correct his issues and function sober. Rehab might do the trick, although I wish he'd put it off until after Stern's Sirius deal is done. A month without Artie would suck.

Call into the Stern Show monday and rat on Artie. It's always funny when he gets busted by listeners.

The last string of shows have been excellent, but Sal getting shot in the ass with several close-range paintball shots was the best. Howard playing Sal's wife songs with his wife there was also good.

**Dolemite** · 22 Mar 2007, 12:57 PM

Sal's wife must really hate his fucking guts- she was the one blasting Sal in the ass with the paintball gun. And she was laughing while he yelled and writhed on the floor in pain. She loved it.
