Sand Monster posted:This is no surprise. Howard's interviews are boilerplate at this point. I haven't listened to either interview, but knowing that Carvey was on "SNL", I'm sure I could type up a list of conversation topics and I'd probably hit on ~80%. "Let me tell you, Dana... when I was in that bathtub, I was hard as a loving rock..."

Bonzo posted:When I was in a movie I ......(30 minutes of things the industry hasn't done for 20 years) It's funny how often he talks about his storied film career when he was essentially blacklisted by Hollywood for breaking an unwritten rule after he sued the production company of a film he signed on for but never got made ("Jane"). I'm not an expert in the inner workings of film contracts and all of that, but from what I understand, it's sort of a gentlemen's agreement that you only get paid if the film is made, but Howard sued the production company for the full salary, and hasn't been involved in a movie ever since. Coincidence? Edit: The contract demands he made are public as they were part of the lawsuit. Pretty funny. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/file/howard-stern-demanding-0 Sand Monster fucked around with this message at 16:16 on May 23, 2019 |

Coincidence? I don't remember any of this. I found a TL;DR on reddit. quote:Howard's Contract and Demands: Anyone remember Tucker Max? He kinda did the same thing. He got a movie made based on his book but made these huge, outrageous demands and when the film bombed he folded up his site and deleted his message board because no one would work with him anymore. I googled him recently and he's doing appearances at Fark.com meetups and such. Mr Lance Murdock posted:Fred actually has about as much camera time as Howard does, but he never says a word about it.... And he was funnier imho. I watched the movie with my wife about a year ago and she wanted to know what actor/comedian was playing Fred.

Hoobastank4ever97 posted:That leaked audio doesn't seem like a big deal to me? A goddamn car wash business would make fake Twitter accounts. I would have been surprised if the show wasn't doing it. In fact it's pretty hilarious he didn't think of this until 2019. People forget the crazy poo poo he used to do to get attention, this is just him evolving and honestly, it's not even that strange. He used to hold funerals for people and wish cancer on them. Strumming up fake numbers is just part of the business now.

Why would anyone buy and read a collection of interviews that anyone can easily find and listen to online or has heard before? Howard's first two books were entertaining for their honesty and the things they revealed about himself (if I remember right). Been forever since I read them but I recall laughing a lot and learning some poo poo about him while reading them. He gave us some behind the scenes type of stuff, some social commentary and a bit of family history that made him seem vulnerable and was usually written in a funny way. Who gives a gently caress about questions he asked Lady Gaga, Greg Kinnear or whoever the gently caress it is in this thing? Only thing interesting he could give us interview wise would be ones that blew up, got awkward in the green room or went off the rails in ways we didn't know about or never made it to air. Don't get me wrong. He's a good interviewer and a radio legend but give me something to read that I don't already know about. Awkward situations, total freak outs and touchy moments if you're gonna give me an interview book.

That's more Rahsaan dropping the ball but since Howard barely even knows who that is there's no chance Howard would care enough to notice.

JB50 posted:He really just doesnt know how to act in front of big crowds. Yeah, Howard has never been "cool" and never even really claimed to be. Quite the opposite really with his constant self deprecation over the years. Radio suits him perfectly and it's hard for me to rag on him too much based on how much he's accomplished. I bet he loving hates having to do this talk show round and is likely rather nervous in front of those crowds. Any one of us would poo poo our pants and look just as goofy in that situation and outside of our comfort zone under the spotlight like that.

I'm surprised that there is No Theme for memorial day weekend and the week off this week. JD Week was fun, listening to a saga is interesting.... but interviews on 100 and random best of on 101 is kind of annoying. Thankfully, I usually have about 5+ days of Sternthology as a backlog by the time vacation hits

The Benjy fight on Wednesday was cringe worthy. The guy does work a 12 hour week and deserves to be fired (it was pretty clear that Will wants him gone too), but Howard projecting his issues on to Benjy was weird. The whole "you don't show up because you are filled with rage and are jealous of me" just smacks of all of the things he has been saying on his book tour about his own therapy. It's insane to me that the guy has been in therapy 2-3 times a week for 20 years and is still so narrow minded whenever he tries to talk about psych stuff.
