I didn't have Sirius from like 2010 to late 2016 (that last thing I remember from that time was Artie's suicide attempt), but when I came back (new car) I was like what the hell is Brent Hatley doing on the Howard Stern show? Of course when I last listened he was still on BTLS with Spiceboy and Manson. Can someone fill me in how Brent ended up leaving BTLS and landing at on the Stern show?

Just for the hell of it my take is Brent is not lying, but he might of paid for that Saturday night with either money or drugs. I also believe it is possible Chris told the girl to lie, because it would make a great bit. He even talks about how he saved the segment.

Brent just said it on the air this week but I don’t remember clearly

I think it was after some btls debacle when they were thrown off the air in Tampa ?? and Brent was blackballed from terrestrial radio . Howard swooped in and brought him to Sirius

I’m not a btls fan so I’m not sure on specifics

Roger I am still listening to Monday's episode on the app. I just heard Ronnie talk about Brent going to the bathroom over and over. Of course my thought with the coke rumors, he was powering his nose.

The thing about Gary was completely trumped up for the air: they found a bacteria on his desk, one that is often present in the environment. It says basically nothing about his personal hygiene.

The only gross person was Richard, really. No surprise there.


Also, Quivers has been on fire all month. She's only funny when she's mean!

Creepy is in the eye of the beholder.

I actually like Brent, but I have three issues with him:

1. He is way, way too sensitive for his line of work. He just learned to hide it in the Marines... but not well enough for the Sterniverse. It says something that no DI every broke him like Bubba did.

2. Related, he is way, way too loving emotionally needy. For everything: air time, attaboys from Daddy, affirmation from his wife, affirmation from random swingers, etc. etc. Again, tries to pretend otherwise, but it's a thin facade.

3. Slave to his vices. I totally believe he is back on coke! Smokes too much weed, sucks on that vape nonstop, drinks too much, and of course, his sex addiction.


Now that I think about, it though, if he could do something about number 3, it would probably help with 1 and 2.

Oh, and he is definitely a sex addict, and that comes from someone who knows. I'm not sure if I agree with Howard that "sex addiction" = "people addiction". I think it is a separate but related addiction, and that some people have both. Given how needy Brent is, though, Howard might be right about him.

To be honest I like Brent, and while I find his swinging stories interesting I also find them un-erotic as as possible. It is not because I am judging him for his lifestyle (I have done some crazy stuff in my past, but I didn't reach his level of insanity), but there is something just off putting about the way he tells his stories. I do agree with your point that he is a sex addict, and that is not the same thing as a people addict.

One thing I will say Shuli really gets on my nerves with his whole shtick of Brent is a lair. Like during the recent Halloween Party Brent story, Shuli keep butting in to a prove a point based of an obvious false interpretation of story. It is kind of like the Gary germ story from last week. I hate when they try to make a bit out of something that we know they are misinterpreting on purpose. Still I usually like Shuli (congrats to him for being the only Howard News survivor), but stop with the Brent bit.

I’m also a fan of Rapaport making GBS threads all over Brent on the Wrap Up Show.

Every time Rapaport calls in I find it so painful to listen to, but he was a lot more tolerable on the Wrap Up Show yesterday.


Squashy Nipples posted:

Yeah, well said.

Brent got pretty heated on the air this morning. I actually agreed with him, but drat is he bad at arguing on his behalf. He always picks the worse angles to take.

While I also agree with Brent, he should have known this was coming. Our society is conditioned to be monogamous from birth (yet cheating is probably worse now than ever). It seems Brent forgot that, and he never realized that coming out like this would be very bizarre to everyone. It is like he thinks the reason people don’t understand it is because they are jealous of his relationship. That said I do wonder if this was a bit to setup the Hollyweird Squares game. If she shows up with the Jackhammer, I will believe 100% yesterday was fake.

One more thing, Brent please stop saying it’s a free country.

My memory could be off, but according to ‘my memory’ I found Amanda hotter than his current wife? I did google her but very few pictures. According to Reddit (that’s a big according) is they did swing, but it almost sounds closer to the ‘hot wife’ or ‘cuck’ lifestyle (plus rumors of her and Bubba’s ex?). Interesting given the direction Brent seems to be headed now.

Wasn’t Bubba into some form of the hot wife lifestyle? He was into recording his wife loving his friends (Hogan) and watching it?

Sounds like she cheated on him (with 25 cent?), despite being upset about it he was also turned on by it, he embraced being turned on by it as a possible way to deal with her cheating, now he is scared that his current wife will cheat on him like his first wife and to combat that he is giving her totally freedom. Plus I do believe he is still turned on by it.

I have a friend that was into the cuckold lifestyle some what. He told me believed he developed that fetish due to his mother cheating on his father. So I’m taking that sane logic here.

Also shame Howard can’t remember the above conversation and apply it now with Brent.

There's a really excellent book about the Hogan / Gawker / Peter Thiel thing called "Conspiracy: Peter Thiel, Hulk Hogan, Gawker, and the Anatomy of Intrigue" by Ryan Holiday. Bubba is a total dirtbag and was secretly recording Hogan (and likely others) specifically to blackmail them and/or sell the tapes to tabloids.

Just ordered. I already knew who Ryan Holiday was due to his stoicism books.

Howard annoyed the poo poo out of me yesterday that he didn't know the Charlie Chaplin Hitler connection (The Great Dictator). That said everyone at that school should be fired for letting this kid march around dressed as Hitler, and child protective services need to investigate the parents.

The Clinton interview was alright. Honestly it was helped greatly by the fact she wasn’t running for anything (it would have been a completely different and worse interview in 2016).

Busting Beth's balls over being called an animal activist is pretty much a miss. I believe she does walk the walk when it comes to that by all accounts. Sure we can make fun of her over many other things, but bitching about her being praised for animal rescue work is a Reddit form of pettiness that I usually enjoy not being in this thread (the Stern Reddit is un-readable due to this).

The only legit line of attack there is the fact that her primary charity, North Shore Animal League, is poorly rated and spends most of the money that comes in on salaries and fund raising parties.

I haven't heard this before, but I did do a google on them. I found this Charity rating site:

https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=4239

It looks like they were pretty bad until around 2014, and they have been showing some improvement every year. According to their 2017 P&L 82.6% went to the program expenses (the actual charity work), 3.9% to admin expenses (which includes salary expenses), and 13.3% to fund raising. Now this all based on what some website tells me, but if that is their true P&L, I would say that is pretty drat good.

That said to your original point it looks to be 100% true as of 5 years ago. I wonder what changed to cause that. Public outcry? New executive leadership? Also I am sure we could find something bad to say about their current position, but if you dig deep enough that is true about most things.

There are just too many options to listen to now on commutes. Everything from Audible to podcast to tons of other streaming options. Even when I listen to SiriusXM it has been Debatable on Volume. I do get into stretches of the Stern show. For example the whole build up to LA up to Brent’s aftermath I listen to almost daily. That said I haven’t listen to it since (I did hear the Squares episode on the app).

It may breathe some life into him and the show. I want to see the old Stern start to crack thru and him not hold back at all on those idiots (all out war). That said Trump and his sons are both easy targets. If they weren't born into money they would be the ones hanging out at Tampa swinger parties. Classless trash.

I saw that someone on Reddit did pay the $50, and they posted one picture from site. It was just your typical nude front shot, and I’m more shock at the price of $50 a month. I am surprised it is still up (she can ask for it to be removed correct?).

Should I feel bad I looked at the picture? I’m confused since she is claiming copyright on the pictures, but this is not accidentally leaked porn. It is nudes she is selling that someone purchased and is now sharing. Also while I think many on Reddit are way too hard on her looks, but my curiosity was far from sexual. It was more of wtf is she offering for $50? For that they should be selling her porn with Jackhammer (you know she filmed it for Brent and he watches it to get off).
