I loved the 2006 Sirius football pool. By the end of the season you could tell Howard was so sick of the bit by then since it would take him an hour just to get through the week's picks. Elliot Offen would scream and argue for 20 minutes about his plugs, then Artie and Crazy Alice would fight for another 20 minutes. Great radio.

And the fact that it ended early with the top 3 deciding to split the winnings... what a poo poo show (but that was Alice at her best).

I've posted about this before, but there was something weird that Evil Dave said almost in passing during the Newlywed Game or whatever it was. They were making fun of something stupid he did or said, and he replied, while everyone was laughing, with something like "You laugh until you get it, right Artie?". He does it twice, no one noticed aside from Artie, who didn't understand what he meant. It wasn't a big thing, but it just struck me as really odd and awkward and I've never forgotten it.

holy poo poo you guys weren't kidding about the bits that get played on 100, I just listened to the most mind numbing 20 minute "argument" between Jim from Raleigh and Howard over the fact that Howard doesn't remember Jim. I would have turned it off, but I sat in rapt awe wondering how long it was going to take for the bit to be over

I think the best EDL moment was at one of the roasts where he thinks he’s there to poo poo on Artie or whoever and they end up busting Dave’s balls for like 20 minutes about him being a pussy whipped bitch who was fronting out tons of dough for his fiancés mail order chocolates business

The Sirius web app seems like a huge improvement, with several shows on demand and a lot of "clips" which I assume are recent good bits.

Fred had a couple of great lines the other day when they were goofing on Ronnie. Howard brought up how Ronnie used to get hemorrhoids when driving a truck for a living and immediately Fred came up with "the dildo took care of that!" Then when they were playing the clips of Ronnie revving up his car at the start of the rally Fred yelled out "The Fast and the Bi-Curious!" If you listen to old clips, Fred used to be a much bigger part of the show. He didn't just sit quietly doing sound effect drops. He actually talked as himself and not only a parody of someone else. I miss that Fred.

What I have seen of the Sirius streaming platform across both computers and mobile devices has been excellent. I think I've listened to the "live feed" maybe once and the rest has been going through what stuff they do have uploaded to the archive

This wouldn't happen to be when they made an ETA trivia game for Vince (I think that's what his name was) who claimed to know everything about Eric? Sal hosed up one of the questions, regarding the Adult Swim show Eric did a voice for. I think.

No this was a full game with trivia about the show, mostly things that happened before those guys worked there. The claim was sal was writing on both sides of the card if he wasn’t sure. One of the answers was shadow Stevens!

Relistening to an episode from 2008 and Howard was talking to Sal about his time as a Stockbroker and he said his best year he made $850k. All I know about being a stockbroker is from Wolf of Wall Street, but is it that easy? Sal is borderline retarded, I just can't fathom a dude like that making that much scratch. And isn't the exam you take to be a Stockbroker notoriously hard?

So, did he just absolutely blow all of that? Either that or he's full of poo poo; ain't no one getting THAT panicked about the show ending if they had 850k in the bank.

Yeah he is either exaggerating or he blew it all. He always seems to need money with side gigs and such.

Think Boiler Room more than Wolf of Wall Street. I’d be shocked if he ever sold anything more than penny stocks.

It's the 10-14-08 episode, that Sal "revelation" got overshadowed as he talked about it right before ETM calls in about losing his virginity at The Bunny Ranch.

I'm willing to the bet the $850k thing is BS and once again, the sad truth is that most "stock brokers" for the last 20 years are just telemarketers. There are financial advisers and hedge fund managers out there, but most brokers disappeared in the dot com days when you started to be able to buy/sell/trade on your own. Now the brokers have to try to drum up business by selling unwanted assets to the ignorant. Even if he managed to pull off $850k in a year (definitely prior to the dotcom bust in the late 90s), remember that his wife used to drop four figures on handbags. He admitted in 2009 that they were in massive debt.

There was a lot floating around during the bubble. Probably after the bust they floated on savings and he ended up on the show in like 04. Probably spent like they made 850k every year though.

I agree with the consensus here, he may have made 850k at some point once. I recall when they tried to prank him about offering him a job on the show, I'm sure he mentioned that he made like mid six figures. Thing is, AFAIK he's got a house, in NYC or the surrounding area, that can't be cheap, as was mentioned, his wife spends thousands on hand bags, and as I recall, he mentioned a while back that they've got a Land Rover. Even the "cheap" ones aren't that cheap, to buy or maintain. And they totally gotta keep up with the joneses so buying a new one every few years would get expensive, and he apparently took quite a pay cut to work on the show. I've never been to NYC, but I'd bet that you'd have to be steadily making 250K/year, and not spend money like an rear end in a top hat just to live reasonably comfortably. NYC goons, feel free to tell me that last line is bullshit if it is. gently caress Benjy, fire him and bring back Jackie.

With the show on haidas for the past two weeks and Sternthology just replaying the same modern bits, I went back and re-listened to a bunch of ETM stuff. This is a perfect reminder as to why he was such a great whack packer and such a piece of poo poo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfNy_8wg8GM tldr; He calls the Bunny Ranch's limo service to pick him up in a stretch from Sacramento for a few days at the ranch. The problem is that he was not invited and when a staffer from the ranch contacts him he says "If you're not going to comp me, charge it to Johnny Fratto."
