Done with this show, again. It's odd to say, but Stern and Robin are the two worst parts of this show.

Stern show is getting worse and worse by the day.
Hamptons Howie is unlistenable, he became what he used to mock.

Artie has been making the rounds of the late-night talk shows to promote his book.
He was on Conan and then Kimmel.
He looks 56 years old.
He told a story while on Conan about being in Afghanistan to visit the troops. He said that all he could think about was that this is where the production of heroin began, in the poppy fields in the mountains. He said that he had always dreamed about having "fresh" heroin. His supply usually "had been inside the colon of some broad for a week".
Patriotic guy, that Artie Lange.

That was really a sad appearance by Artie on Conan. No regard for anything in life.
I don't know what he's going for if it's some kinda style or whatever.
It's not even real like Farley or Belushi. It's become an act.
He should embrace that he survived and has become successful.
It's not fun and it's not funny.

There's something a bit unnerving about a 54 year-old man who still has the word "doodie" in his vocabulary.

That is JD? Oh man, for some reason I didn't picture the facial hair, but otherwise he is just what I thought he would be.

are they going to be on vacation for 2 weeks now?
He looks like John the Stutterer.

I don't know why they would be.Should be just 1 week.Then I assume they'll be off for 2 weeks from Dec. 22 - Jan. 2, when I think they'll play History of HS part II.whitem0nkey said:

I didn't re-listen today, but I thought that's what Howard pulled in the Artie-Sal fight?Best part of that Artie - High Pitch argument is Howard acting like he missed it."What just happened, I missed it"He's five feet away.

Just hearing the show now on replay. They played his "sick" call.There's no way you can't think he's back on something.
His recent appearances on Conan and Letterman make him look as if he's almost gone.
Missed the Kimmel appearance and I heard he sounded real bad on Bubba via phone.
Yea, he was in a real bad way when he called Bubba claiming to have just "woke up"...but he never seemed to come to over the course of a 30 minute interview.

Ate a TON of m&ms and vomited blood a little bit.I missed his call in when Fitzsimmons was in studio - what did he say was wrong with him?Kiddnets said:Then caught in traffic!Gambino said:Not looking good for Artie.Doctor's appointment at 6:30AM
Seriously?Fixed.Ate a TON of m&ms and vomited blood a little bit. Back on heroin.I missed his call in when Fitzsimmons was in studio - what did he say was wrong with him?Kiddnets said:Then caught in traffic!Gambino said:Not looking good for Artie.

He was coughing up blood that was apparently from a bleeding ulcer he found out later. Then he ate a ton of cheeseburgers and chocolate shakes at his book signing.

That man has large breasts.
I assume they accused him of being back on the dope?He was coughing up blood that was apparently from a bleeding ulcer he found out later. Then he ate a ton of cheeseburgers and chocolate shakes at his book signing.
How do you know the staff is "grossly underpaid". I have no idea what they make, but I was under the impression he was fairly generous with the staff...but again I don't know.I am still bothered by that whole Secret Santa thing - Howard makes a billion on the show while the rest of the staff is grossly underpaid - so he stops giving Christmas gifts to them? Thats lame!

I've heard Artie mention a dozen times that he has a "Million Dollar a Year Job". Whether he clears a million or makes a million before taxes I can't say. I'd imagine Robin is around 5M and Gary is around 250K, as well as Fred.Jesus, if that's the case both Robin and Artie are stealing money.I've heard Baba Booey makes $500K, not including appearances.Artie, I would guess $2M, and Robin is probably in the $5M neighborhood.Any rough estimates, or just plain guesses on what the staff makes?Interested in Robin, Artie, Gary, etc.How do you know the staff is "grossly underpaid".

Well don't forget that he's on the road constantly. I would assume he's including his road gigs as part of his "job".....I've heard Artie mention a dozen times that he has a "Million Dollar a Year Job".Jesus, if that's the case both Robin and Artie are stealing money.I've heard Baba Booey makes $500K, not including appearances.Artie, I would guess $2M, and Robin is probably in the $5M neighborhood.Any rough estimates, or just plain guesses on what the staff makes?Interested in Robin, Artie, Gary, etc.How do you know the staff is "grossly underpaid".

Why did they announce who they got? Isn't it supposed to be Secret until the gifts are given?I am still bothered by that whole Secret Santa thing - Howard makes a billion on the show while the rest of the staff is grossly underpaid - so he stops giving Christmas gifts to them? Thats lame!

Avoid me!
I think Gary makes more than you guys think. Remember the controversy about Artie accidentaly getting a look at Gary's check and then bragging to other show employees that he makes more than Gary?
No way Robin gets 5 million.
Howard doesn't pay them, the company (and previous companies) do so it's not up to him to be "generous" with giving out salary amounts. Some of those guys like both Scotts have been with him (via companies that he worked for or with) for 10-15 years. They aren't sticking around that long if they are so grossly underpaid.

I doubt it. He has said that about the Stern show itself, not about making a million a year combined. His standup gigs are 50K a pop, so I'm sure he's making more than a million a year combined.Well don't forget that he's on the road constantly.

From bits and pieces from shows I figure the following:
Gary $750K
Fred $900K
Artie: $1.5M
Robin $2.5M
However I was referring to the underlings like Jason, JD, Sal, Richard, Teddy - all of which make very low salaries. Not to mention the tons of underlings and interns we never even heard of - employees like those looked forward to a gift from Howard every year. He would give watches, jackets, radios, etc - now they lose out because its a hassle for him.
Bad move in my opinion - makes him look cheap and unappreciative.

Agree. It would be nothing for him to give a list to his assistant and have her go buy gifts for all the regulars
I didn't hear that at all and I listened to most of the show. Can someone verify?
IIRC, he said that he's "done"...wants to spend more time with Beth, blah blah blah.But then he said that if he could work something out with Sirius to come back "on his terms" then he'd consider it. But if he couldn't work something out with Sirius, then he's done.

It's the most definitive statement I've heard him make about being done in 2 years but even he admitted that a lot could happen in that time. I think this will be it for him.
In the wrap-up show Gary even thinks it might be over and said he thinks Howard will go the way of Johnny Carson and completely retire.
