Just got back from a America's Got Talent taping.


At first I was pretty hesitant on attending as I have never seen the show, and have only Howard's constant carrying on about during his show as something to go off on. But I must admit, it was loving WAY awesome.

First off, we showed up about a half hour late and was told we would be put on "standby" only to somehow manage to get front row seats! I was six chairs away from Howard Stern, and it was pretty intense. Everyone shouting things during the broadcast was essentially all Howard Stern inside jokes. People went loving crazy for Howard, basically.

The three judges had an excellent way of communicating with each other and each gave constructive criticism towards each act. I feel like Sharon is the real dead weight, as Howard and Howie are all throwing out zingers and actually trying to make the act seem compelling.

After about 7 or so acts Howard grabs a mic and announces that Eric the loving Midget is sitting about five rows directly behind me. Once I turned around my dreams had finally come to a realization. I have seen that worthless, club loving footed, ack-acking little prick in person. He's just as hideous as you can imagine. While in his chair he's basically lifeless besides his beady little eyes moving around his skull. It was shocking.

Throughout the taping they kept shuffling people in and out of the front row who were not clapping and acting loving crazy besides me and my friend, and low and behold they bring that loving midget a grand total of four seats to my right. I also saw his handler, Yahn, who was about as goony as you could imagine.

Towards the end Howard was getting booed (unnecessarily in my opinion) about some act and asked for a microphone after he voted out the guy to give his reasons. At the tail end of his rant he decided to walk over to Eric, which would mean he would be walking directly in front of me.

I immediately started losing my poo poo and started thinking of a way to grab his attention to perhaps get a fist bump, because Howard is loving awesome and I want some of his power. As Howard walks by me to get to Eric, he asks the loving midget if he approves of his judging and tells him he made sure he's getting some soda at the auditorium. As Howard begins to walk by me (literally less than a foot in front of me) I yell out "HOWARD I LOVE YOU" and I extend my fist out. He didn't immediately turn around and I backed away thinking he just needed to head back, so as I take my seat he turns around and tries to throw me some love, but I had already blew my chance. Opportunity wasted.

gently caress!

Also, I saw Ronnie the limo driver and he is just about the least immiatating human being I've ever seen. He also might be five foot six.


All in all, if you have a chance to head to a taping you should probably enjoy it. Howard is loving hilarious and the acts are rather entertaining, even if they really suck.

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.
Other than his claws it's probably fairly accurate. He's a blob, he has no core muscle and his neck barely looks like it supports his head at times. He can basically type on a keyboard and look at stuff, that's about it.

Oh man, that sounds so goddamned awesome. I'd be 10x more excited to see Eric than Howard. I don't even know how I would react to him. Part of me would want to shake his hand and thank him for the dozens of hours of amazing radio, another part would just want to go up to him and go "AUGH...ERR...ACK ruhh MUYH RAUHH". Maybe just tell him off to see him get mad.

Do you really want to be the guy seen harassing a severely disabled man on national television?

It if were Robin, on the other hand, I would attach a tape of me singing Brown Mound to her on my resume if I had the chance.

I wonder if his hump is a result of no core muscle or just his attempt at slouching. You would think someone in his position would be urged to exercise just a little, as as much as he could in order to keep him from becoming just a head on top of a pile of dog poo poo.

Given what we know about the Midget, do you want to touch his claws?

And if you want a laugh, look back at the time Eric came to the show and made a fuss about 'being viewed.' Sure as gently caress doesn't have a problem with it now, does he?

Eric's such a timeless prick. I friended him on Facebook msg'ing him how much I loved him, and to also see if I could get my hands on one of those Eric t-shirts Langford mentioned years back.

Fucker hasn't added or msg'd me back :( I tried going the non-creepy route by e-mailing Johnny and Gina on JSFC.tv, but Gina's e-mail addy bounced and Johnny...just never replied. Curses.

Like Howard says, you gotta be a pretty hard mother fucker to look Eric in the eyes and rip him a new one. He looks like a living nightmare, seeing that in person has to be shocking and slows down your rage.

Also thank god you didn't actually touch Howard, -Atom-, he would have ranted the rest of the show about germs.

I think Howard did say at one point how he'd have Eric on his lap like a little muppet.

Good story Atom, hopefully more people go and can come back and recount the experience, sounds like it was a lot of fun.


edit;

btw Atom, how did Howard look in person? Was he crazy tall? Was he better looking in person or worse or what?

His hair is kind of frizzy but he's definately a gross looking guy. Not as bad as he likes to say about himself, but he is a awkwardly tall man with a strange looking face. He has a nice smile though.

It also helps that Eric can't rage in person. He's a big man when he's on the phone, but it doesn't translate at all to to reality. I'm still curious how he would expect to break Fred's fingers.

If you're A-list enough you could probably hit him with a juggalo piss balloon and he'd take it without complaint. If you were an Andy Dick he'd have the E! crew break your legs.

True, but it just looks so strange, the cuts, the angle, the way Seacrest is holding the mic like something is going to explode, the reaction of Security who have been warned for a few days about Sascha and talking him up to do something stupid.

The only thing that makes me doubt it is Sascha looks like he is nervous and I don't recall him being that good of an actor and he has been nervous before and shown it.

We were watching the "behind-the-scenes" footage on the website, and one of the backstage camera angles noticed him strangely changing out of his "Good" tux just before this happened. It was definitely set up ahead of time.

One thing that needs to be fixed is the audio, as in when Artie drops his voice really low and makes comments, you can't hear them very well at all and those were really funny on Howard when he did them.

Loosing markets, one "affilate" was 99W station in Detroit that switched format after two weeks. Only two or three radio stations and the IO show, most of the off air staff has been fired or quit (even Tuddle's show was nixed).

More twitter fights, im guessing thats the drama you referred too, I stopped listening also then. Seems like they might have finally opened the new studio and it's horrible audio from a quick look of the boards.

Also: originally, the radioIO was a subscription-based service and you could "early enlist" for like $300 for three years, which included all of their content for download. Then once they got all of those subscribers, Bubba went and bought a dirt racetrack with the money.

And the radioIO streams were never secured so you could just listen to the shows for free (Bubba is internet-retarded). A few months ago, Bubba announced that radioIO would now be 100% free so he hosed over his loyal "Army".

I haven't really listened to the show lately because the uncensored show is pretty terrible and they seem to be mailing it in for 1.5 hours after they do their terrestrial show. Each time I turn it on they are talking about performing gay stunts.

However they did hire that guy who shot his dog and his ex-wife, Shannon Burke. The show actually is quite funny and better than what Bubba has put on the air. They do some specialty shows as well, and at night they have Scott Leger (sp?) who is a huge truther and conspiracy theorist. He had Tucker Carlson on a few weeks ago to debate 9/11, and Tucker made him look like a fool.
