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.
Bruce Jenner was an Olympic hero, the dude was enormously famous for a period of time in our parent's lives. He somehow ended up in the Kardashian brood and is now, I think, a pre-op transsexual. If that's not at least a little interesting I just don't know what is anymore.

Yeah, exactly. Plus, growing up in the 70s, he was a sports god.

We just got an AWESOME Sour Shoes segment, he did Gary The Retard, Artie and Bobabooey all in a row.

I think it was Wednesday 4/15? Towards the end of the show. And he does them on cue without skipping a beat. Also,

They're probably picking up on Sour more because they have no content. Usually I love anything with Ronnie but the whole first hour of the show yesterday was about him and a strip club and it felt waaay too long.

God forbid they go a day without a Benjy update too.

I did get to the point where I'd be disappointed if Eric wasn't on the show.

But it was always worth it to hear him the next day raging about not being on.

I've always found it fascinating that Ronnie essentially gave up on his marriage because he wanted to travel around promoting these strip clubs.

It's actually really sad. They've been playing up his paper thin image of a sexual Lothario for a while now but the reality is that he's a tacky old man who's got an embarrassing swagger because strippers pay attention to him due to his connection with the show.

His fight with Ralph last week was great though.

I'm just glad Sour Shoes is doing an Artie impression from the show and not his podcast. That'd be too difficult to listen to.

Ronnie is definitely right behind Sal for Suicide Watch after the show ends. Can you imagine going back to driving limos for nobodies and losing his title of "Scoresman"? Guy's definitely in the peak of his life and he's probably pissed it came so late.

Ronnie will still be Howard's driver, and I'm sure Sal will actually be fine.

Ronnie was in his 30s when he started working for Howard. He'd been going to strip clubs with the guys for a long time before it became a thing in the late-terrestrial/early-satellite days, back when the guys visited clubs(pre-Scores) and just didn't talk about it much if at all.

Plus, as was said, he's going to drive for Howard after the show ends.

The Wack Pack these days is in dire straits. Hanzi? Gonzo Shitcock? rear end Napkin Ed? These idiots aren't fit to carry Hank's Diapers. They should have retired the whole Wack Pack after Eric died. Either that or do American Idol style national auditions. Maybe hire someone to plumb the Internet for psychos. Can you imagine Chris Chan on the Stern Show?

Does anyone else think that knowing more and more about Richard and Sal makes their prank calls better? I love the guys, both from their prank calls and just their general studio shenanigans, but I find that I get more enjoyment out of hearing they're prank calls because I'm familiar with them. I showed a few clips to my wife and she doesn't share the enjoyment, but then again, she doesn't listen to the show.

For example, Sal calling himself an african-american male named Lamar, or Richard bugging the poo poo out of the tradio guy with his amazing barometer.

Yes absolutely, every time Ethel gets called 'sir' I chuckle and I don't think it's as funny without knowing the backstory.

I definitely think there's more enjoyment in knowing the guys. But, there are lots of great prank calls that stand on their own. I've sent about a dozen to my non-Stern listening friends and they love the Tradio calls. Their favorite is the pharmacy prank call where "Ethel" has the dry heaves and Richard plays clips of some porn dude cumming.
