Howard had his breakfast ready to eat as he started the show and he wasn't sure what to do, eat it or take a break. He had his egg whites and salmon ready to go but he had to talk about going to Billy Joel's wedding over the weekend. He told Robin that Christie Brinkley was there but cut himself short so he could take a commercial break.
The phone caller Howard had on the line asked Artie when his DVD is coming out. Artie said he hopes to have it out by Thanksgiving. There are a few distributors who want to put it out. That led to Howard reading some bulletin board posts about the shows Artie and Rev. Bob Levy did over the weekend out in St. Louis. They talked about Artie's drinking and how cool Rev. Bob Levy was. The people out there really liked Artie and Bob out there.
Artie said he saw Dr. Sal Calabro out there in St. Louis and they were some really cool people. Artie thought the show was kind of blue but they liked it anyway. Howard said if you go on Dr. Sal's web site it's almost like a porno site because he's got so many nude pictures on there.
Howard moved on again and talked about how John Kerry has gone up in the polls since the debate last week. Howard was happy to see that happen. Gary came in and said he was out in Cleveland over the weekend and got a big Baba Booey Star Wars Theme song welcome when he got there. Howard and Artie sang along to the song parody as Fred played it for them. Gary was in Cleveland to see one of the Bruce Springsteen concerts. He told the guys a couple of stories about the concert. Howard helped out and said that John Fogarty performed some anti-war songs from the Vietnam era and they seem pretty relevant once again with the Iraq war going on. Howard played some of his ''Fortunate Son'' performance from the concert. Gary said if you heard that song for the first time ever, today, you'd think he'd written it about President Bush. Fogarty sounded good during the performances of his other songs as well. Gary said the guy is 59 years old and he sounds just as good as he did years ago. Howard played a couple of other clips from the concert and said he really should have gone even though he's not a big fan of Springsteen's. Artie said they're playing down in Washington DC if he wants to go with him down there. Howard said he might have to go as Artie's date. Howard suggested checking out the article they have in Rolling Stone magazine about Bruce Springsteen and his concerts supporting John Kerry.
Howard mentioned that tomorrow is a big day. Larry Fine would have been 102 years old if he had lived that long. Howard had Fred play their classic ''Woodstock Minute'' bit featuring Larry Fine (Billy West) talking about the things going on at Woodstock. Alison Steele did the announcing in the bit so Howard talked about how ''smooth'' she was as she read her lines in the bit.
The wedding was outside and it did start to drizzle but then, just as the bride came out, the sun came right out on cue. He said that Billy must have paid a pretty penny to make that happen. He said they didn't just have a bunch of celebrities there like it was reported in the papers. He said it was a very classy wedding because they didn't have really loud music playing the whole time. As he arrived at the wedding there were reporters all over the place trying to get interviews. They were banging on the windows of the cars trying to ask some questions.
Howard got into the wedding and started drinking right away. He said he raced after a waiter to grab some flutes of champagne. He told Robin he walked right up front at the wedding because he wanted to see it up close. He saw that this concert promotor Ron Delzner was there and he was kind of rude to Beth one time when they ran into each other. Howard said that Beth tried to keep him out of Howard's dressing room one time and he told her to just get out of the way. Ron was okay with them at Billy's wedding though. Howard said he likes Ron and talked to him for a while.
Howard said the wedding was short and sweet and they got it over with so they could get to the reception. Howard said the ceremony wasn't long and they had it nice and early so people could be home pretty early. Howard said that there was no religious stuff during the ceremony so that was nice as well. He saw that Christie Brinkley was there at the wedding. Beth was actually mistaken for Christy by Billy's sister and Howard thought that was kind of cool. Howard was interrupted by Gary when Underdog Lady called in with a story to tell.
Howard talked about how his father helped out with the recording of the cartoon way back then. Suzanne seemed to think that Howard was claiming that his father was one of the creators but he was just trying to let her know that his father helped out. Suzanne thought that Howard made a great mistake by choosing to be profane with his radio show after having sat in during the recordings. She ended up hanging up on Howard because he was upsetting her with his questions. Gary told Howard that Suzanne was hoping to talk about how she wants people to leave her alone at these events because she's still being bothered by a few people. Howard had to take another commercial break after that.
Michael has a new book coming out tomorrow so he got in a plug for that. The book is called ''Will They Ever Trust Us Again?.'' He said it's just a bunch of letters that he's gotten from the soldiers over in Iraq. Moore said he just published them the way he got them and they're pretty intense. A guy claiming to be a Marine called in and told Howard that they have guys in the service being killed all the time and no one is talking about it. He said that what Bush is doing is a total disgrace. The guy said that people seem to have forgotten about them but Moore told him that we haven't forgotten. Howard gave Michael a bunch of plugs for all of the other stuff he's got coming out soon and let him go a short time later. Moore has another book called ''The Official Fahrenheit 9/11 Reader'' coming out tomorrow along with the other book and the ''Fahrenheit 9/11'' DVD. You can find out about that and more at MichaelMoore.com
Howard went over to say hello to Christie Brinkley at the wedding. He met her kids and said that they should have no problem getting laid because they're good looking kids. Regis Philbin's producer Gellman was there at the wedding so Howard talked to him for a short time. Howard saw someone at the wedding that he knew but wasn't quite sure he knew who it was. Then he realized it was Felix Cavaleri of the Young Rascals. He said he was a big fan of the guy when he was a kid but he didn't recognize him right away. Howard talked about that band and played some of their music. The volume of the music coming over his computer wasn't loud enough so he started to get a little pissed off about that. Scott the Engineer came in and told Howard that whoever puts the songs in doesn't make sure that the sound levels are even and there will be some soft ones and loud ones.
Howard saw Paul Reiser and his wife at the wedding. He said he spent about an hour talking to them and felt bad because he used to bad mouth him on the show. He said the guy was a really nice. Robin told Howard that he tore apart the guy's book and his TV show. Gary came in and said that Howard hammered him because the guy used to beg to come on the show until he got a hit TV show. Then the guy told them to go F-themselves and that's when Howard went off on him. Howard got off that subject shortly after that.
Howard said that Billy's kid Alexa Ray got up and made a really moving speech about her father at the wedding. He thought it was very sweet and classy. Howard was hoping that Billy would play something at his wedding but they had some other guys who played some songs instead. Billy never did get up and play so Howard thought that was another classy thing at the wedding.
Howard took a call from Vinnie Favale from CBS who said that Howard could turn up the levels of the songs he was playing very easily and Scott the Engineer wasn't right about the levels of the MP3s he had. Vinnie had Howard looking for the volume control for his WAV files. Howard found that the levels were all the way up though so Vinnie wasn't right about it. Scott came back in and told Vinnie that he was wrong about what he was saying and it is the level of the MP3s he's playing.
Howard was playing Billy Joel's ''Down Easter Alexa'' and managed to get the volume up a bit. He said he loves that song. Howard said he was leaving the wedding and slammed his arm into the wall after getting drunk there. He said he really had a good time at the wedding though. Robin wondered if Beth got misty at all during the wedding. Howard told her he didn't even look over to see. He feels bad for people who get married so he doesn't get misty-eyed himself.
Howard said they had some great alcohol at the wedding. They didn't have the Kettle 1 vodka that he likes but he just switched over to Grey Goose and he was fine. He said that when he drinks he gets more social. Robin wondered if he talks to his therapist about that. Howard joked that the therapist has a bar in his office so he already knows.
Howard said they ran this promotion last week where they were going to have girls come down to audition for the chance to win a trip down to Scores in Ft. Lauderdale. No one showed up today and Howard kind of expected that. It kind of turned into a disaster. Artie interrupted and said that Jillian Grace was at his comedy show over the weekend but he wasn't able to see her very well since she was sitting about 10 rows back. Howard had to take a commercial break after that.
Howard explained what happened with the audition and how things just didn't work out. He talked to one woman who is the talent coordinator for Scores and she says that they look for women who don't have personalities and they don't even have to speak English. Joy said that she's been dancing at Scores for about 2 months now. Ralph wanted to see her pants come off so Big John said that she has natural breasts and they should see her naked.
Savannna said that the girls need to know how to exude sexuality when they dance for them and a lot of strippers just don't know that. Howard said he needs to get a dance from her because he's forgotten what it was like. Howard told Savanna (Buy her videos) that the movie she did with Jenna Jameson, ''The Masseuse,'' was great and also mentioned that they have one of their uncensored E! episodes featuring Savanna up on his web site now.
Howard asked to see Savanna's panties and got his wish a few seconds later. Big John had Joy dance for the guys after that. While that was going on Howard asked Big John when the new Scores in Ft. Lauderdale is opening. John said it's next Wednesday and they'll be down there this Friday. Artie and Gary are making an appearance there this coming weekend. Joy asked to hear some of Garbage's ''Number 1 Crush'' to dance to. She got her wish and stripped down for the guys. Howard said he didn't believe that her boobs were real and wanted to touch them to make sure they were real. She didn't rush over to let them feel her up though. Howard said her boobs were nice and looked great. Savanna was watching as Joy was dancing. She said she'd like to take her home with her buy Joy said she's not in to lesbian stuff.
Ralph said that Joy took her jeans off but put her shoes back on. That was pretty hot to him. Howard agreed. Robin asked where Joy was from because she had a bit of an accent. She said she's from the Ukraine. She didn't lose her virginity until she was 19 1/2 years old.
Howard took a call from a guy who said that Savanna has an odd sexual position preference. She likes to have a guy doing her in the bad place while girl is munching her. Savanna said that is true and she enjoys that. Howard had Joy come over to him after that so he could check out her breasts. Howard felt her up and said that he thinks that there's something in there. Gary thought one of them looked real and the other one didn't. He got to feel her up and then Artie felt them. Savanna copped a feel herself and asked what something was in there. The guys were all lining up to check her out. Ralph grabbed a feel while he had a chance as well.
Howard wrapped up the segment a short time later. The new Scores opens on Wednesday and Gary and Artie will be there on Friday. He was going to go to break but Fred played another song for the girls to dance to. They were dancing a little bit to ''Lean Back'' and that kept their attention for a little longer. Howard finally went to break a couple of minutes later.
Howard got a lot of mail about that call. One guy said he hopes that her power is never restored because the call was great. Howard said that Richard Christy took clips from that message and called the power company. He had Wendy yelling at the guy about putting her power back on. The guy who was taking the call was just an answering service for the power company so he was blowing her off. A listener called in and said that this was one of the funniest things he's heard on the show in the 22 years he's been listening.
Howard had some other e-mail about other guests. AJ Benza was mentioned and some people were glad he was back on the show. There were also some people who dislike him and were't so glad he was back on the show last week. Howard read some mail about his constant political discussions on the show. A bunch of people just want him to stop bashing Bush all the time. Howard said he does like 5 hours worth of show every day and only spends maybe 20 minutes on the Bush stuff. He's not talking about it all the time.
Howard read some mail about Teri Hatcher and how hot the lap dance thing sounded. Howard said that she did the stripper thing on The View and on The Tonight Show as well so it wasn't quite as hot. Ralph was sitting in and asked if she really looked good when she was in. Howard and the guys thought she looked great in there but Fred thought that she looked better in person than she does on TV for some reason.
Howard played a new commercial parody for ''On Star'' that they had. He also played a clip of Bill O'Reilly reading a letter from a guy who called himself ''Jack Mayhoffer'' which was obviously a fake name. The guys thought that was kind of funny.
A woman called in to complain about Howard playing Wendy's voice mail and goofing on it. She didn't like that he was making fun of the people in Florida who are still trying to recover from the hurricanes that hit down there. Howard told the woman that she's dumb because he's not making fun of the people in Florida, they're making fun of Wendy. Artie put it well when he said ''We're not making fun of hurricane victims, we're making fun of retards.''
Dan the Song Parody Man has done it again. He took the Aurora Snow gagging clips and put them to some classical music in a way that no one else could. They played another one that Dan did where he put her gags to ''Yankee Doodle.'' He said that there's a lot of talent there.
Howard said that Dale Earnhardt Jr. used the S-word on national TV the other day and NASCAR is thinking of fining him but Howard wants to know if the FCC is going to fine him. Howard is wondering where the fines are for that. He called them hypocrites and said that was no less shocking than the Janet Jackson incident during the Super Bowl.
Howard quickly mentioned the upcoming Amputee Beauty Pageant and suggested that anyone wanting to enter should send in a video tape by the 18th of this month.
Howard took a call from a guy who thought the Wendy the Retard tape was great. Howard ended up giving the guy a $500 prize just for calling in.
Howard thanked the creators of Smallville for sending him an official Smallville High School ring with red Kryptonite in it. He gave one of them to Ralph who said that the ring is actually pretty cool looking. Howard had to take a commercial break because Dave Navarro was there to play ''Stump the Booey.'' Dave was supposed to have a hot chick there with him to play the game but she hadn't shown up yet.
Dave said that he had to stop doing that stuff when he met Carmen (Electra) because it's hard to have an orgasm when you're on drugs. Dave said they're down to having sex just a few times a week now that they've been together for four years. Howard wondered if Carmen gives dave the ''back door.'' Dave said that she doesn't do that but he's not all that much into it anyway. Howard told Dave that he was with one of the greatest women he's ever been with and she actually led him to the back door one time.
Howard wanted to ask Dave if Carmen is into water sports but he wasn't even sure if he could ask it. Dave said that they have gone there and he is into that a little more than the back door thing. Howard asked Dave if Carmen has ever brought another girl home for him. Dave said that works out okay at night but the next morning there's a lot of explaining to do.
Howard said that Dave expected to be dead within a year of writing this book of his so he didn't think it would be published while he was still alive. Dave said it was all starting out as a picture book but the writer that helped him out and Marilyn Manson suggested he write a story about all of this stuff he was going through and that's what it came out like. Dave was writing the book while he was on this downward spiral so it's the only reality book that was written while someone was going through it. Howard heard that Dave didn't want to put the book out and Judith Regan was threatening to sue him so he had to release it.
Dave said that he was a loner when it came to the drug use so he wasn't always around people who were users. He avoided getting diseases and stuff because he was doing the stuff alone. Dave cleaned himself up and got married to Carmen Electra so he's enjoying his life now. Howard read something about Dave picking up a Playboy Playmate and a Penthouse Pet at a Playboy Mansion party one night. The date turned out to be a nightmare because one of the girls wanted to stop because she had to take a dump. Dave was also thrown out of the Playboy mansion after being caught shooting up in one of the rooms and writing on the walls with his own blood. He also got caught shooting up in an airport bathroom when a security camera caught him. Dave said he's never really been caught and busted for that stuff. He wasn't the kind of guy who would drive around somewhere and get caught, he'd stay home and do that stuff.
Howard read that Dave once banged a chick, not because he was attracted to her, but because she had slept with Jimmy Paige and he wanted to be closer to him in some way. There was also a story about how Carmen was kind of introduced to him through Dennis Rodman. Dave said that Dennis actually mentioned his name to Carmen and they eventually met.
Howard gave Dave a plug for his book ''Don't Try This At Home'' and said he'll be signing copies of it at a couple of places in New York and New Jersey today and tomorrow.
Dave wanted to play Gary at a game of ''Stump the Booey'' but the chick he had coming in never showed up. Howard said that they could use Savanna Samson instead though. They agreed that whoever won, Savanna would get naked. When she came back in the studio Howard asked her why she wasn't wearing her wedding ring. She said if she started to talk about it, she'd start to cry. That's exactly what happened when she started to talk about how her marriage only lasted 5 years. Howard actually predicted that it would last 5 years. Savanna told Howard that they just didn't get along and their marriage was dysfunctional. Gary came in and said that there were some things brought up about how the rules they have in their marriage are kind of vague. They like to have some fun with other people but the lines may have been crossed at some point.
Savanna told Howard about how her husband showed up with a huge truck the day he moved out and it was very emotional. She said that she still loves her ex-husband and she will always have a special place in her heart for him. Howard was trying to get her to cry but she just wasn't getting that upset about it all.
Howard had Savanna get behind the curtain they have in the studio so they can drop it after the game is over. Dave and Gary were going to compete against each other in a game of ''Stump The Booey'' where Howard plays a song from the 80's and the two guys have to try and guess the name of the song and the artist who performed it. Howard started the game a short time later. Here are the songs and who got them right.
Howard had Carmen on the line a minute later. She'd just woken up so Howard had to explain to her what was going on. He asked her what she was wearing and Artie was just about ''done'' after hearing that she was wearing just panties. Howard then told Carmen that Savanna was standing there next to her husband naked and she's willing to come back to the hotel and do both of them. Dave interrupted and told Carmen that he really loves her. He asked her flat out, ''would you like to have Savanna come home with us?'' Carmen said that if she did, she wouldn't say it on the air. Carmen said that she's never been with another woman in front of Dave so this would be the first time. Howard wondered if Carmen could deal with seeing Dave do Savanna. Savanna said that it's all about the girl anyway so Dave wouldn't be doing her, she'd be doing Carmen. Howard wanted to go over and see all of this going on himself.
Howard made Carmen make a decision right then. Carmen said that Savanna could come on over herself while Dave goes out and does his press stuff today. Dave said that would be fine with him because he thinks Carmen being with a woman would be cool. Howard told Dave to just tell Carmen what he really wants. Dave said that he wants Carmen to be ultimately happy and whatever she wants is fine with him. He's going to go home and make this happen in whatever way he can so it doesn't matter to him.
Carmen thought it would be a good thing if she had a porn star as her first because she's experienced. Howard told Carmen that if they actually do this, he wants a phone call from the two of them from Carmen's hotel room. Carmen and Dave were saying that it would be better if this was a night time show. Carmen was turning down the opportunity so Howard bailed out. He almost had Dave hooked up but Carmen turned it down.
Howard said that if it was his girl, he'd just drag Savanna right over to the hotel room and make it happen. Artie thought that there were some code words in Carmen's discussion that made it sound like she wanted it to happen. Howard had to wrap up the segment after that so he gave Savanna a plug for her web site SavannaSamson.com and gave Dave some plugs for his book as he was going to break.
Howard started the show trying to remember what he wanted to talk to Robin about. He'd somehow forgotten what it was so he wondered if everyone logged on to his web site to see the pictures of Savanna Samson yesterday. He liked the ass shot they had up. That led to the guys talking about the voter registration they have going on over there and the show rundown they put up there every day. Jason takes pictures in the studio and posts them on the ''Today's Show'' section of the site. The picture quality has apparently gotten better lately and Robin was impressed with what she was seeing. Howard hopped on his site and ended up going to the uncensored E! show page where he read off a long list of the shows you can download. They've added quite a few uncensored shows over the past few weeks. There are some featuring Savanna Samson so that's why he'd gone on there to begin with. Howard was having some trouble reading the screen that they had the web site up on. It was taking him longer than usual to read through it because it was so blurry.
The Wheel of Sex is returning to the show today when they have Alexis Amore on the show. Howard read through some of the stuff they have on the Wheel of Sex and they included things like...
The caller told Howard that prayers do turn things around for people but Howard just laughed and said that he's been praying for a private jet for quite some time now and nothing has happened. He wondered if Rodney is leaving anything for him in his will. Robin doesn't seem to think he's going to leave him anything. She said that Jim Carrey will probably get something before Howard does since he's been at his bedside quite a bit.
The caller claimed to be a pretty famous photographer but he wouldn't say what his name was. He told Howard that one of his pictures has been hanging in New York City for 2 1/2 years now and it has something to do with 9/11. Howard continued to goof on the guy by doing an impression of his kind of effeminate voice. He was also goofing on the fact that the guy kept repeating the reason he was calling in which was not for personal reasons, it was not for fame either. He did it just to get some prayers for Rodney. Howard let him go a short time after that. He took his first commercial break after that.
Richard Christy took that call and chopped it up so they could call the power company using her voice as a customer complaining about not having power. Howard replayed the call that he played on yesterday's show. Howard said that would be the last play for the Wendy voice mail for a while. He just wanted to make sure everyone heard it.
A caller told Howard that he saw Savanna Samson on his bulletin board last night but she was just plugging her web site constantly. Howard said they told her that she could do that, he didn't know that's all she was going to do while she was there. The caller and Howard talked about how hot Savanna looked on yesterday's show. Howard wondered if she and Dave Navarro ever hooked up after the show yesterday. He told Gary to keep an eye on them when they left to see if they were going to hook up. That led to Howard saying that his girlfriend isn't into chicks so he could never make that happen.
Howard noticed that Chaunce (Hayden) has taken another picture of his penis to use as his avatar on his bulletin board. He said it's kind of nuts in there with that stuff. Howard has an avatar that Scott DePace created for him but he's not even sure how to use it. He said that it's a simple one of him just signing his name.
Howard took another call from a guy who said that Michael Powell was on Monday Night Football last night pushing HDTV for some reason. Howard was wondering why he needs to push something like High Definition TV. The guys figured that he must be getting paid in some way. The caller told Howard they asked Powell about indecency as well and he basically said that Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s use of the S-word the other day was in the ''heat of the moment'' so it's not considered indecent. Howard said his show is the same way and if they say something, it's in the heat of the moment as well.
Howard had tape of Michael Powell from Monday Night Football so he played that. Powell explained how they look at each incident within context and decide to fine based on that and some other things. He spent a minute talking about that before he had to go to commercial.
Howard read through some TV ratings information and they're coming from nowhere to have some very popular shows. He said that the new show ''Lost'' is really good and he enjoys it. The women on the show are all looking like models on the show. The other night ABC also had ''Desperate Housewives'' on and they got some amazing ratings with that. Howard tried to watch it himself but couldn't make it through the whole show. He said ABC is doing well with some of their other shows as well. Howard said the reason he brought that up was because he wanted to give some credit to Lloyd Braun who went to work for ABC a few years ago. He used to be Howard's attorney. Lloyd is the guy who signed Howard to do a special for ABC, that has yet to be done. Howard said Lloyd told him that it takes a couple of years to develop shows so it's taken him a little while to get things moving over there.
Howard said he knows how long the process can be because he's working on a few things himself. A lot of networks don't stick with their program directors long enough. Lloyd was fired from ABC before he had a chance to get things moving over there. He developed a bunch of the shows that are hits at ABC but he's not there to enjoy the success. Howard congratulated Lloyd for what he did even though he's no longer over there at ABC.
The caller said he had been practicing the ''Sulu Dance'' song and wanted to take a shot at singing along to it. He tried to do it recently but had no idea what to do. Howard gave him another shot at that and offered to give him a prize if he got enough it right. He didn't do it very well so Howard cut him off and sang along himself to show the guy exactly what he had to do. He gave the guy the $500 prize for what he'd done anyway.
This guy Charles called in to talk about his thoughts on 9/11 and what the causes were. Charles was saying that we should have never ended slavery because the security of the airports and buildings in this country is poor because the people doing the jobs don't take it seriously. He seems to believe that if these people were still slaves, they would work hard to do their jobs. He claims that he's a lawyer and he's not racist. Robin thought that Charles sounded black himself but he says he's not. He says that he believes that people should be forced to work hard for their jobs and the money they make because people these days are too lax and just expect money to come in.
The caller says that there are a lot of white people who belong in that group as well so it's not just blacks that he's talking about. The caller believes that people should earn their way into citizenship, not just be born as a citizen. He said that Abraham Lincoln was a racist and didn't really want to end slavery. Howard took some phone calls from some other people who were agreeing and disagreeing with what this guy was saying. One guy said that there are a lot of lazy people out there who don't want to work for their money. Howard let Charles go a short time later after finding out that he's working on a book about all of these theories of his.
Howard took a call from a guy who brought up last night's E! show with Steve O cutting his shoulder and then putting tattoo ink into the cut. He said it was pretty intense stuff to see. The caller said he used to do stuff like that himself so Howard told him that he must have really wanted attention to do stuff like that. Howard thinks that Steve O must have had a pretty messed up childhood as well to be doing stuff like that to himself.
Howard talked a little bit about coach Dick Vermile. He played a quick clip of him rambling and not making sense about why his team did what it did during a game earlier in the show. Then he was given another clip where he was crying about something during a press conference.
Howard took a call from a woman who wanted to tell him how much she loves him. He jerked her around for a minute asking her what she wanted to say to Howard when she got on the air because she really didn't seem to get that she was already on the air. He kept asking her what she wanted to say, she kept repeating it. Howard ended up giving her a $500 prize after getting jerked around. She wasn't following anything so Howard wondered how she makes it through a day. Howard had to take a break shortly after that.
Howard talked about how it's the 10th anniversary of the wild card in major league baseball. When it was first proposed there was only one baseball team owner who opposed it. That person was George W. Bush when he owned a baseball team. Howard and the guys agree that the wild card thing is good for the game but Bush was the only one who opposed it back then. Howard said that the guy couldn't run a business, he can't run the country and he wasn't even able to find oil in Texas!
Howard read about Scott Muni's funeral and how Mel Karmazin was there as one of the Pall bearers for the late deejay. Tom Chiusano was also there so he came in and told Howard about how he worked with Muni years ago. Howard didn't think that Muni even knew who Tom was. Tom said he did know him and he considered Muni a friend. He last spoke to him about 2 years ago. Tom did go out to lunch with him a couple of times and he thought that he was a good guy. Howard said he feels bad for his family and he wasn't going to bad mouth the guy now that he's dead. Tom told Howard that there were some hot chicks at the funeral but he wasn't going to say who they were.
Gary asked Howard who he thinks the six guys would be who would carry his casket. Howard mentioned Mel's name again but said he definitely doesn't want Tom there. He mentioned Governor Patacki, Senator Al D'Amato and some wackier people like Beetlejuice and Wendy the Retard as the ones carrying his casket. Howard said if he was going to be serious about it, he'd have his friend Dr. Lew Weinstein, Mayor Giuliani and Donald Trump carry him if possible.
Howard didn't think that Mel Karmazin was all that big a fan of Scott Muni's because he claims that he had discussions about the guy with him. Howard doesn't even think he'd get that choked up about him dying if he died tomorrow. Gary told Howard that he thinks that the people who really should carry his casket are the guys who imitate him. Howard thought he was nuts and tried to come up with the other guys who would carry him. Gary told him he really should have all of that stuff in his will.
Dominic Barbara called in and said he hopes that he would be one of the Pall bearers. Howard said he wouldn't want him doing that and he seemed surprised by that. Tom told Howard that he doesn't have anyone named in his will either. He did have a list of people he wanted by his side when he was on this death bed. Tom said that Howard never even came to visit him when he was sick with cancer years ago. Gary and Robin went out to visit him because it was only about 20 minutes away.
Howard brought in porn star Alexis Amore (Buy her videos) after Sal's call. He said she has quite a set of boobs on her. She talked about the porn movies that she's done and that got Howard talking about a Jenna Jameson movie he watched last night. The movie wasn't all that good but he wasn't even sure what the name of it was. Alexis told Howard that her latest movie is ''Sizzling Salsa.''
Howard was trying to watch some porn last night so he could get some sleep. He had a business meeting until 10 o'clock last night and it was so private that they didn't even want anyone there to serve them dinner. Howard had to serve the dinner himself so the guys thought that was kind of odd. Howard served the three course meal that came up from a restaurant. He had his agent there and he refused to eat from the containers so he made him dump it onto a plate. After the meeting Howard had to get some sleep. Beth called him and wondered if he had Scores girls over there or something. He was going to take an Ambien to get to sleep or something but told Beth that he was going to pleasure himself to get to sleep. He said he only needs a couple of minutes alone to get himself off.
Howard said he went to his On Demand cable and tried to find a porn movie to watch so he could pleasure himself. He said they list people like Alexis as ''Exotics'' for some reason. He ended up talking to Alexis for a short time and asked her to show them her ass. Howard and Artie liked her ass. She also showed them her giant boobs. Robin said she may have gone a little too far with them. Artie said he'd just finished after seeing them. Howard got back to his porn movie discussion again. He said he tried to find a movie and his On Demand thing wasn't working so he had to grab a DVD instead. He threw in this Jenna Jameson movie but it was too artsy for him.
Howard was ready to move on to the Wheel of Sex game with Alexis. They noticed some tattoos she had on her. She had a bad Playboy bunny on her that they made fun of a little bit. Howard told her that it was ruining perfection and she really didn't need it. Howard had the guys bring in High Pitch Erik who was part of the Wheel of Sex. He was wearing edible underwear that she might have to eat. Here are the other choices she had:
Howard brought in another woman, Onna, from VoyeurDorm.com who also spun the Wheel of Sex. She got the ''Smell Benjy's ass for a minute'' but Benjy didn't want to do it. He thought that she would just make fun of his ass so he backed out. Howard had High Pitch do it instead. High Pitch got on all fours and they made Onna stick her nose in his ass crack for a full minute. Erik told the guys that her nose was cold. She actually did stick her nose in there but held her breath. Gary said he could smell his ass from where he was standing. Erik didn't believe that it stunk that much but Gary couldn't get that close to him. Doug Goodstein was standing at the other end and said he could smell it from there as well. Onna was very brave to have gone down there. Doug said that ''if crap could crap'' that's what he smells like.
Howard gave the girls a couple more plugs for their web sites. Alexis Amore had a few sites including
Captain Janks called in and told Howard that he just puked off his porch after hearing that. Onna only had the one plug, VoyeurDorm.com, so Howard gave her a plug and asked to see her naked. She's only 18 years old so Howard said he didn't want to see her naked. She just graduated from High School this year and now she's in college. She told the guys that her parents died when she was about 15 years old. Her father was only 38 when he died of a heart attack and her mother died after getting a liver transplant. She talked about how she lost her virginity at 16 and has only had about 4 guys since then.Doug showed Howard how his edible underwear had just melted from High Pitch's sweat. Howard told Erik that he really should go to the doctor about the sweat problem. He took a few phone calls from people who were grossed out. Erik got in a plug for an upcoming appearance he's making up in Abbington, Massachusetts with Miss Howard Stern. Check out revboblevy.net for more info on that.
As Howard was wrapping up the segment he wanted to play a great High Pitch prank call tape but they didn't have it ready for him. Howard had to take a break and couldn't wait for that to get to him so he just went to commercial.
Howard brought in two guys from the band Good Charlotte after that. Joel and Benji are twin brothers who are in the band. Howard said they don't look like twins but Robin said they looked like they were identical to her. Joel and Benji said they were taught that if they had sex with girls, they'd get AIDS and go to hell as well as get women pregnant. They said they listened to Howard to get the real scoop and everything they know now is from what they learned from Howard.
Howard heard that the guys were homeless at one point after their father took off on them. Their mother was always sick and they had to bring in the money for the family so that's why they were out listening to Howard at work all the time. Their father split from the family on Christmas Eve one year and they haven't heard from him since. One of the guys said he was on crutches at the time and they didn't even have a turkey dinner or anything to eat. The guys did get to watch Howard's New Year's Rotten Eve pay-per-view special when it was on but they had to watch the scrambled signal.
Joel and Benji told Howard about how they saw their parents split that Christmas Eve night. He said he was going to the 7-Eleven but he never came home. Their mother stuck with them through all of that and they think she's a saint because of that. The guys got a lot of help from a local church and that's where their guitar and bass came from. They were 18 when they got their first gigs with Blink 182 and some other stuff. Their mother gave them her mini-van so they could go tour when all of that started happening.
Howard found it hard to believe that their father has never contacted them after leaving the family. They think that he may have been a player and hooked up with a bunch of women when he was married to their mom. The guys shared some other stories about getting their band started in high school and how the chicks still didn't want them even when they were hitting it big time. Now they get a bunch of girls but none of them from their old high school.
Howard heard that one of the guys was dating Hillary Duff. He told Howard that he hung out with her but didn't get anything from her because she's so young. Gary came in and told Howard about how one of the guys had a crush on a girl in high school and she ended up egging on another guy to throw snowballs at him harder and harder. He said he got back at her like a year ago when she wanted to hang out with him. He told her to meet him somewhere in Baltimore and left her hanging while he was out in California. Howard gave him some advice and told him to just make a date with them but make them jealous by bringing hotter chicks with him and then tell the girl that she's not his type.
Howard wanted the guys play a song for them before taking phone calls. They told Howard how they met Harvey Leeds years ago and Harvey told them that they'd know they'd made it when they were on the Howard Stern show. He told them they had to sell some records before that would happen. The guys performed an acoustic version of ''Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous'' which Howard thought was a good song. They said they're loving their lives right now since they're doing so well. Their new album ''The Chronicles of Life & Death'' comes out today.
Howard told the guys that his piano teacher killed himself and he feels like it's his fault because he was so bad. He remembers the guy complaining to his mother that he was horrible and he just wanted to quit. Howard played ''Predictable'' which is their latest single from the new album ''The Chronicles of Life & Death.'' Howard liked that one as well and said he got goosebumps from the song. He didn't even know what it was about.
Howard took some phone calls after playing the song. The first guy asked Howard why he's going to be off the air in 15 months. Howard didn't explain the reasons for that because the guy was all over the place and he wanted to concentrate on Good Charlotte. He said that they're going to be making an appearance tonight but they're afraid that the debate is going to throw things off and they won't get anyone out to see them. Another caller told the guys that they're acoustic version of the song earlier was great. They told him that there's more acoustic stuff available on the web.
One caller complained about how the guys don't sign autographs when he saw them at some event. The guys said that they do take time signing autographs but they have a lot of interviews to do now that their album is coming out today so they have to rush from one place to the next. They can't talk to every fan and they constantly apologize for that and they really appreciate the fans they have.
Mariann from Brooklyn called in and said that her 12 year old daughter loves their song ''Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous.'' Howard had her sing a little bit of it and then took another call. A guy called in and said that he had to defend them because they did sign some autographs for his kids and they've saved the world from all of these boy bands out there.
Howard wrapped up and gave the guys a plug for their album and the appearance they're making at Tower Records tonight at 7pm. He went to commercial break right after that.
Howard had a quick Mystery Record to play for Robin. She already knew who it was since she'd heard the song. Artie had no idea who it was so Howard just gave it up and said that it was Minnie Driver. She put an album out for some reason. Howard moved on to talk about Green Day's new album ''American Idiot'' and how they seem to be able to make some big hits with their songs. He played a couple of quick clips from the album and then took some phone calls.
Howard ended up talking to a caller about what he would do if the draft was put into effect and his daughters were drafted. Howard said that he would move his daughters up to Canada before he'd let them fight over in Iraq. He said he'd move up there with them.
Another caller asked Howard about the Billy Joel wedding that he went to over the weekend. Robin asked Howard to give a prediction on how long the marriage would last. Howard said he thinks it'll last until Billy dies... or about four years. He said he really does think it'll last until Billy does. They make a nice couple according to Howard. He had Robin start her news after that.
During the news Howard read a few e-mails. One guy said he saw Artie in the movie ''Fourth Floor'' over the weekend. Artie said he played a stalker who went after Juliette Lewis so it was a dramatic role for him... He admits that he wasn't good in the movie though. There were also some complaints about the Fat Joe song that they've been playing on the show lately. Howard played it again and sang along to it. Howard read through a few other e-mails and mentioned that someone sent them some condiments for Artie and that got him thinking about how they could redesign the studio if they ever moved to another studio or something. Howard would like to give Artie a kitchen area of his own so he can make his own food. Fred he'd like to put in a terrarium or something. Gary said that he's heard that Artie will actually stop for something to eat on his way to lunch each day. Artie said he's starving when he gets out of there every day so he will stop and grab something to eat before going to lunch. Howard had to cut them off and had Robin get back to her news so they could wrap up the show. They finished up around 10:40 this morning.
Howard started the show off with a High Pitch Erik announcement for the upcoming guests on the show. Erik announced the guests coming up on the show today and then introduced Howard. Howard jokingly said that Jay Leno is trying to steal him away as an announcer just like he did with Stuttering John. That led to Howard talking about how it's being reported that David Letterman has been attacking Jay Leno every night since Leno announced his retirement.
Howard interrupted himself and said that he has a big announcement to make at 8 o'clock today. He thinks it'll be pretty big news since it's been keeping him up at night these days. Artie said he hopes that it's that he bought the Yankees and got Roger Clemens back on the team for tonight's game. The guys talked about the Yankees loss last night after Artie filled Howard in on what happened. Artie will be at tonight's game to cheer them on. Howard doesn't want to press release this big announcement of his. He wants to be able to talk to his audience about it on the air instead.
Howard got back to the Letterman story he started to read earlier. In the article they say that Letterman has been goofing on Jay lately and he's calling Conan O'Brien the most powerful man in late night because he has managed to push Jay Leno off The Tonight Show. Howard doesn't believe that anything is set in stone though and Leno could decide to stay with the show in 5 years when he's supposed to retire so O'Brien isn't the most powerful man in late night.
Howard talked about last night's Vice Presidential debate a little bit. He believes that the body language showed that Cheney was exhausted after just 90 minutes and he was constantly wringing his hands during the debate. It looked like he didn't want to be there at all but he did have some good one line come backs for John Edwards. He thought that both men came across well as far as the things they were talking about. Howard didn't like the moderator in the debate last nigh because she wasn't even sure what to follow up with.
Howard was talking about getting some of Rodney's good friends on the show to talk about him. Artie said that Robert Schimmel was helped out a lot by Rodney. He said he's got some great stories about Rodney that he might want to hear. Howard would also like to get Jim Carrey on the phone since he was very close to Rodney. They'll be talking more about him later in the show.
Howard had Fred play a couple of the High Pitch Erik bits that they've been playing lately. They goofed around with those for a minute and then took some phone calls. One guy wanted to know what Howard's big announcement was going to be but Howard wasn't going to talk about it until the 8 o'clock hour. The guy ended up cursing so Howard had to hang up on him. That led to Howard playing a clip from CBS news where they bleeped out Dale Earnhardt's use of the S-word. They bleeped the word but didn't bleep it so much that you couldn't figure out what he was saying. Howard complained about how they bleep and over-edit his show's bits while the CBS news doesn't. Howard said that the news program was doing it as shock value and to titillate the audience.
Captain Janks called in and reminded Howard about the story Rodney Dangerfield told a few years back about Jackie the Joke Man and the money he borrowed from him. Jackie claimed to have paid Rodney back with jokes but Rodney didn't remember that. Janks asked if they could replay that bit when they talk about Rodney later. Howard said they'd be playing a bunch of his stuff later.
Jeff said they sold their house for about $85,000 and the trailer was only about $30,000. He claims that he's helping out with the bills but no one believed it. Artie recently gave Jeff some tickets to a Yankee game and he heard from a friend that Jeff sold the tickets and never went to the game. Jeff swore that he went but didn't see the whole game. He missed some of it when he was walking through the crowd meeting some people. Howard told Jeff to give them a call when he gets into his new house. He gave him a $500 prize and took a commercial break.
Howard heard that Scott the Engineer threatened to walk out when Sal tried to get one of his bits done. He said that Scott handed him all of his tapes and told him he was the new guy in charge so he could do it. Sal also told Howard that Scott wanted to give the guys from Good Charlotte a copy of his son's CD but he didn't have any there. Sal told him to check the garbage which the guys seemed to find kind of funny.
Howard reminded everyone that he'll be making a major announcement around 8 o'clock today. He's nervous about it but he wants to make it dramatic. He's been thinking about how he's going to make the announcement but he's not sure how it'll actually come out. He says he might want to get the audience's reaction on this announcement because it's definitely going to happen. Robin and Artie were wondering if it was something that he would be deciding to do later or if it was actually happening.
The guys were wondering if Howard was going to shave his head or something like that. Artie said he did that years ago when a buddy of his bet him that he wouldn't do it. He was all coked up at the time so he went ahead and did it. He wore a hat to cover up the mess of a hair cut he had for a while.
Howard said he might get High Pitch Erik on the phone to get his thoughts on what's going on. Howard played a new prank call that Erik made to an adult movie store. He was asking for anal products and stuff from them but the guys kept hanging up on him. Howard was laughing pretty hard as the call was playing. The guys were trying to figure out what's going on in Erik's mouth because he makes all kinds of noise as he speaks.
A caller asked Howard if his big announcement is that he's getting married again. Howard said that's not what it is and he'd have to wait until 8 o'clock to find out what it is. Another caller told Howard that she wasn't a fan of his in the past but a friend of her's convinced her to listen and now she's a fan of his. She was from Pittsburgh so Howard ended up talking about how there's a lot of flooding out there in Pittsburgh and the area is devastated because of it. He suggested that if people want to help out they can donate to the Red Cross.
The woman told Howard that she likes the way Howard helps out his fans. She remembered the guy who had lost his girlfriend last week and Howard gave him a trip to Scores in Ft. Lauderdale. Gary and Artie are making an appearance down there this Friday for the grand opening. Ronnie the Limo Driver will be there as well. Ronnie said that they have a separate restaurant there at the club and it's supposedly a 5 star place. He said that Howard's buddy Wayne Siegel is supposed to be down there with them as well.
Ronnie asked Howard about the controversy over Dale Earnhardt Jr. using the S-word. He said that NASCAR didn't just fine him, they took points away from him so they may as well have taken $5 million from him. They spent a few seconds on that before Howard had to take another break.
Howard told Robin that the World's Biggest Hemorrhoid contest is on E! tonight. Robin said that no one wants to see that stuff but Howard said it has been the most anticipated show lately.
Howard brought in Kelly Osbourne who is appearing on a new TV show. He saw that she had a new hair style and she seems to have one every time he sees her. Howard is afraid to change his style that often. Kelly told Howard that people think that she wears a wig but she just has very thick hair. Howard remembered the time he tried putting blue streaks in his hair and how it scared his kids.
Howard asked Kelly what's going on with The Osbourne's reality show. She said they're not shooting anything right now but there is a new season starting soon from video that they shot in the past. Kelly said her father is doing very well since his accident and her mother is healthy again.
Howard asked Kelly about her drug rehab and what she was using. She said she was into Vicodan. Howard said he tried that but didn't feel a thing. He told Robin that he spent a day drinking and taking Vicodan with someone but it didn't do anything for him. Kelly said she was up to taking about 50 pills a day at one point. She said she couldn't stop because she'd get really sick if she tried. She would start taking them as soon as she woke up and she'd take them all day long.
Kelly said that when she'd talk back to her parents, that was the drugs talking. She has changed since getting off the drugs. She told Howard she started using them when she was 13 years old. Her brother didn't know that she was using them all that time but he started to notice toward the end because she'd pass out as she was talking to people.
Kelly told Howard that she got her Vicodan from the rich kids in Beverly Hills. She claims that the pills were going for about $3 each at the time. Kelly wanted to stop doing the drugs but she didn't want to bother her parents with the rehab stuff. She didn't realize how lucky she was to have the life she had. Howard wondered if she was the most famous person in rehab at the time. She believes that she was. She spent over 30 days in rehab and it made her never want to do drugs again after what she went through.
Howard started to ask Kelly about being with guys but she didn't want to go there. He said it's weird that she used to be that little girl running around at the pool with her father. Now guys are banging her. She pointed out that his daughters are getting banged as well but Howard didn't want to believe that. Kelly didn't want to talk about sex with Howard. He kept trying to find out how she enjoys sex and all but she doesn't talk about that with anyone. She did say that she doesn't like to be touched by guys and she has to date them for a while before she'll even kiss them.
Howard and Kelly talked about the Paris Hilton sex tapes that are out and she believes that it's kind of a dumb thing to keep tapes of something like that around. She doesn't like to watch porn either so Howard figures she can't have an orgasm with a guy. She didn't want to go there but Howard kept digging. Kelly said she came in to talk about her TV show, not sex.
Howard moved on to talk about her new TV show ''Life As We Know It'' which airs tomorrow night at 9 on ABC. Howard told Kelly that he loves teen TV shows and he'll probably be into something like that. Kelly plays the fat chick on the show and she's going to be the one who shows girls they don't have to be so skinny. Howard got back to the sex talk a short time later. He was asking her about anal sex and Kelly said that the butt is an exit only for her.
Gary came in and told Howard that Lindsay Lohan's father Michael was on the phone and he only had a short time to talk. Howard read in the paper that Michael was having a breakdown and his estranged wife got a restraining order against him. Michael claims that isn't true and the story in Page Six was not true. Michael claims that his ex-wife tried to run him over and he reported that to the police. He was the one who got the restraining order against her. She then tried to get one against him so that's where the story came from. Michael was also saying that it was a lie that his daughter has changed her phone number like 10 times in the past year but he says it's been the same. Kelly knows Lindsay and she said that she has changed her number quite a bit.
Robin wonders what is going on with this guy and his family because they're trying to run over people and stuff like that. Michael said that even he isn't sure what's going on. Howard had to wrap up with Michael after that so he tried to get the story straight about Michael getting the restraining order first. Howard told him to call back tomorrow so they can discuss it further when they have more time.
Kelly said she doesn't understand why this guy has to make things even more difficult for his daughter by talking about this stuff on Howard's show. Robin and Howard told her that the guy was just trying to straighten out the story. Howard took a call from an Ozzy Osbourne impersonator (Billy Mira) who ended up getting the delay hit on him. He said something about how he was going to pleasure himself to Kelly's new show so he was going to try not to watch.
Jeff the Drunk called in to ask Kelly how she was doing. He asked her if she enjoys giving oral. Of course she wasn't talking about that stuff and said that when he called her ''baby'' she wanted to throw up in her mouth. Another caller told Howard to get Kelly off the air. He was insulting her and her family so Howard cut him off and took some other calls. Another guy asked her if those pills she was taking had M's on them and peanuts in the middle. He also said he knows Kelly because he met her at a hamburger eating contest. Kelly said she hears stuff like that every day.
Kelly said she will never use Vicodan again in her life but she's not saying that she'll never use drugs again because she's not dead yet. She also said she hopes that she can do half as good as her brother Jack is doing since his rehab. She said her sister Aimee is the only normal one in the family at this point.
Michael Lohan called back and asked Kelly why her family got involved with a reality TV show if she's so against talking about personal stuff on the air. She said that she's not going around airing her family's dirty laundry like he seems to be. Michael defended himself and said that he is always defending his daughter Lindsay so it's not him airing the dirty laundry. Howard said that he tried to keep his divorce stuff kind of quiet when that was going on because he didn't want to cause any problems. Howard wrapped up with Kelly a short time later and gave her another plug for her new TV show. He told Kelly that he'd be making a big announcement after he took a commercial break.
Howard had Stephen Baldwin on the phone finally. He asked to do it quickly because he had his big announcement to make. Howard wondered why they can't have Stephen's number. Stephen said he's in Detroit today and he doesn't have his cell phone with him because his bag was lost or something like that. Howard cut him and Gary off so they could get to his plug. Stephen is the new host of ''Scare Tactics'' so Howard wondered if it conflicts with his new found religion. Howard told Stephen about something that happened to a friend of his with another, similar show called Boiling Point where they really pissed her off. Howard asked Stephen if Jesus would approve of this kind of entertainment. Stephen said he absolutely would. Gary came in and told Howard about how they did one bit where they did an occult ceremony to freak out some people. Stephen said that he would not do something like that himself.
Stephen said that he was just happy that they were talking about Jesus on Howard Stern's show. He gave a ''praise Jesus'' as he was talking about that. Stephen said that he did have some things put in his contract that keep him from doing certain things on the show. They talked about how Stephen doesn't like to be around nude women anymore so that must have been one part of the contract. Howard wrapped up with him quickly so he could get to his own stuff. ''Scare Tactics'' airs tonight on the Sci-Fi channel at 10pm. You can also find out about his coffee Loco Joe at Distributorship.com.
Right now there is a bill sitting on the President's desk that will allow the government to fine individuals for indecent broadcasts. This has made Howard think about what he wants to do with his career when his contract is up in 15 months. He believes that his career in radio is pretty much done but he's made his mark. Viacom has supported him through all of this stuff while Clear Channel backed down and caved into the pressure. He said that Leslie Moonves has been good to him since Mel Karmazin left the company and they're good people there. He said he's felt weird about what's been going on with the government and Michael Powell. The stuff they're doing on radio now is not risky because they have delay's on all of his affiliate stations.
Howard said that the radio show has been the biggest thing in his life and he was ''at one'' with radio for most of his life. He sat down at a meeting with his agent recently and told him he's done with radio. It's not an issue with money, he just doesn't want to do it anymore. It's not fun. He said he told him he's ready to leave it because it doesn't matter to him. It can only get worse for him, not better. He's had to prove himself over and over again by syndicating his show and he believes that he showed the industry how to keep radio relevant. He's very proud that they were able to do that.
Howard said he as really down and didn't want to do radio but someone approached him to do something spectacular. He said that Sirius Satellite Radio asked to talk to him. They talked to him about what they were building for the future and he listened to them. He wasn't convinced to go to satellite. He would have to take himself off the air from terrestrial radio and move to something new. He was offered a new 5 year contract with Viacom but he doesn't think he can do it while his show is constantly censored. He would have to rebuild his career on satellite so he had to think seriously about that. He believes that if he does that, it would show that satellite radio has arrived. He believes in satellite now and believes that it is the future of radio.
Howard says he's been agonizing for months about this satellite radio thing. Two days ago he signed a contract with Sirius Satellite (Read about it here) radio and he will be moving to Sirius satellite radio in 2006 when his current contract is up. He wants his team of people to come with him over there of course. Howard said he had to think about that for a long time and he didn't tell anyone there at Viacom that he was going to be leaving. The deal is done and he will definitely be leaving this type of radio in 2006. He will dedicate his time to making satellite radio great. They are giving Howard 3 channels to program and he will be dealing with people he believes can help the satellite industry great.
Howard can't go on in some states in this country because of what the FCC has done to him. He is now putting his money where his mouth is and he will be pushing satellite radio like crazy. He says this has lit a new fire within him and the day he signed that contract, he has been on fire. The show has been different for him the past couple of days since he signed that contract with Sirius. The people at Sirius believe that this is what the satellite business needs to make it legitimate.
Gary came in and congratulated Howard on this big announcement. He was surprised that even Tom didn't know about this until he was hearing it as he was sitting next to the dump button. Howard wanted to handle this with class so he wanted to make the announcement this way. Howard said he's going the make the next 15 months the best 15 months of radio they can. Gary said he's going to plan the greatest final show for this station ever. Gary said that people in places like Atlanta will finally be able to hear what they've been missing for years.
Artie asked about the other channels that Howard will be producing. Howard said they'll have their own channel, that will not be a premium channel, where he will have some other performers working for them. He's trying to get that worked out already. Howard isn't sure if it'll be commercial free yet. He will have two other channels, one of them being a premium channel, that he doesn't want to talk about at this point. Howard knows some things about his radio show channel. His show will be repeated during the day on that channel for different markets. Gary asked him what kind of contract he signed. Howard has signed on for a 5 year commitment! That shows how much he's committed to that type of radio. He talked about how he could have waited 15 months to sign the new contract but the people at Sirius impressed him so much that he had to make the commitment now.
Howard said he believes that he will be known as one of the creators of satellite radio once he moves over there. He said that he will be able to say things over there that he could never say on this current show of his. The FCC has kept him from growing with Viacom so this is kind of a direct result of that. Howard said that the religious kooks out there think they've won. They haven't. Now people will be able to pay for a service to hear the radio show they've wanted to hear. Howard's main motivation in all of this has to do a lot with Clear Channel. He says that he will bury them and make their radio stations worthless. He said he's not going to sit still and let Clear Channel destroy radio. This is very personal and he's on a mission. Gary said he knows there are Clear Channel executives sitting there laughing right now but he knows what Howard is capable of and it's not going to be pretty.
Dominic Barbara called in and said that Sirius stock is going to go nuts at 9 o'clock today. Howard took some other calls from people like Mariann from Brooklyn who was crying because she was so happy that we're not going to lose him. She was thrilled that she was going to be able to keep listening to him. A guy called in and told Howard that he will support him and he was also near tears when he heard the announcement.
Howard said he's never been so excited about something like this. Robin is happy that he'll have something else to move to. John the Stutterer called in and had some trouble getting out his congratulations. He got out a couple of words before Howard hung up on him. Robin said she thought that Howard was going to announce that he was quitting today. She thought that it was going to be two bad things in one day with Rodney Dangerfield dying and then Howard quitting. Luckily she was wrong. Howard said he just wants to bury Clear Channel and make each of their radio stations worth 3 cents.
Another caller told Howard that he was shaking just thinking about this. He talked about how nothing has been the same since the Super Bowl earlier this year. The guy also said that he's going to be voting for the first time because of what Howard has been saying.
Dan the Song Parody Man called in and told Howard that he's been to the Sirius Satellite studios and they're amazing. Howard hasn't been there himself because they had to keep this stuff quiet. He said he'll be going up there in a couple of days to meet some people up there and say hello to them. Dan told Howard that he's going to be really impressed with what they've got going on up there. Howard said it's kind of ironic that the studios are up at Rockefeller Center where they used to work for WNBC.
A phone caller told Howard that he's had Sirius for a few months now and they're great. He can't wait to get the show on there because they blow XM out of the water. He wished Howard luck and said he'll be turning his FM radio off once Howard is done. Benjy asked if there are any content regulations. Howard said there are none. Benjy also tried to find out about the TV show. Howard said he's got 15 months left on that contract as well so maybe they can work things out with that as well. Radio is his focus right now.
Howard believes that about 90 percent of the people at the station will come to him and want to make the move with him. He said that they will have 3 channels to manage so they will need some people over there. Gary said he got a call from Howard's agent who apologized for not being able to tell everyone what was going on. Howard said there should be some catering over there so he'll be happy. Howard had to take a break shortly after that. Everyone congratulated him as they went to break.
Howard said Tom Chiusano came in and shook Howard's hand over the whole thing. Howard said that he thinks that Tom would make a good General Manager if he wasn't held back by the things that hold him back there at the station now. He said he feels like a kid again now that he's got this new job. He hasn't even told his kids about it yet because he was told to keep this a secret until the contract was signed. They couldn't let that information out because they could get in trouble for passing insider information.
Howard said that Beth kind of caught wind of what was going on but even she didn't know what company it was. Gary came in and said that some people in the office thought that Howard was going to announce that he was getting married. Howard said he couldn't make that announcement in front of Robin. She won't let that happen because he's talked about how he'll never marry again. Gary said that he thought it might be a personal issue after talking to Howard yesterday after the show. He thought that maybe he was sick or something.
A caller asked Howard if the satellite will be available around the world. Howard said he thinks it's just in the United States at this point. They're working on getting Canada in there as well but you can hear it all over the United States. Another caller said he can't believe Howard did this to him... He dumped all of his money into another satellite radio company instead of Sirius. There were callers complaining that XM has more deals with car companies but Howard said that Sirius has BMW, Chrysler and Ford.
A reporter from Channel 7 in New York asked Howard if he's leaving broadcast radio for good when he leaves for satellite. Howard said that's it, he's gone once he leaves in 2006. Howard told the reporter that he doesn't want to do an interview but did answer a question about how Sirius coming to him first. The reporter kept asking questions so Howard kept answering. He asked if this marks the end of broadcast radio. Howard said he believes that it does mean the end of it. He said that FM killed AM and now he thinks that satellite is going to kill FM.
Artie likes the fact that Howard is going to put his stamp of approval on other radio shows that he'll be putting on his channel. Howard hasn't been able to talk to anyone yet but he's hoping to bring some good shows on board with him. Howard's personal assistant Laura Lackner called in and said she helped get the champagne ready the other night but she had no idea what it was for.
Natalia asked for Howard to undress her himself. Howard told her to come on over. She said that it was her fantasy to undress her so Howard agreed and helped take her clothes off. He took off her top and said her boobs were nice. They were small but nice. She gave him a gift from her friend Ivy Supersonic and then Howard took off her skirt. She was wearing a thong under that. The guys were impressed with her body and asked if she wanted to take the panties off. She didn't want to go that far though.
Natalia asked Howard to come to her party with his girlfriend so they could have a threesome. She said she would only do that with Howard though. Howard said she was saying all the right things today, that's for sure. He didn't think she was too hot to get work though.
Natalia said that she's in the November issue of FHM magazine and she's included in an article about threesomes. She has gotten it on with other women. Howard tickled her for a second and then told her to get out of there. She got in a plug for her web site NataliaDelano.com. Gary was kind of upset that she didn't get completely naked so he told her to take her thong off.
Howard spent a couple more minutes talking to Natalia. He said that they have to get some pictures of her up on the web site. Howard wondered if Chaunce (Hayden) was banging her. She stayed quiet so Howard brought Chaunce in. Chaunce came in saying that he was not important today and it was all about Howard. Howard asked Chaunce if he's ever had sex with Natalia. He swore that he never has but Natalia said she has kissed him before. Gary told Howard that Will pre-interviewed Natalia and she said that they did have sex. Natalia said that they did have sex a couple of years ago. Chaunce was denying it for some reason so Howard and the guys tried to figure out what he was up to. Chaunce said that it's his personal life and didn't want to talk about it.
Howard let Chaunce ask him a question about his big announcement. He gave him one question. Chaunce wanted to know if Howard thinks that the FCC could ever start regulating something like satellite radio. Howard told him that they would have to regulate everything people pay for if that's the case. Chaunce also asked if the show was going to get more ''adult'' and if there was going to be any more nudity and sex. Howard said the show is going to be funny and it can't get more naked than Natalia.
Chaunce said that he also interviewed at Sirius so he wondered if Howard got the job over him. Yeah, that's what happened. Chaunce was wondering if Howard would let people have sex in the studio and air that. Howard said something like that might happen and he might put that on microphone. Chaunce thinks that Beth would be upset by stuff like that. Chaunce had a few other questions about Howard's deal with Sirius and wondered if he is partners with them. Gary said that it appears that's the case but Howard told him he's not answering financial questions that Chaunce asks. He might talk to some legitimate reporters about that stuff though.
Howard took a couple of phone calls from people who said they'll be listening to Howard on Sirius when he makes the move. Howard believes that it's a rebirth for his show. Captain Janks called in again and said he made a prank call to Lowry Mays' son on the line. Janks asked him what he thinks about Howard making the move and the guy said that they're very happy for him.
Howard took a call from a guy over at FHM who was denying a story Natalia told about him wanting to have a threesome with her and his girlfriend. He denied ever having done that but Natalia said that it did happen and of course he's going to deny it. Howard had to take another break before getting to Robin's news.
Vinnie Favale from CBS called in and asked if they have a portable player available yet for guys like him who are walking around all the time. Howard wasn't sure about all of the details about that yet. Vinnie was also asking if his archives will be going with him to Sirius. Howard hasn't worked out those details yet either. He wanted Vinnie to calm down with the questions because it's not a press conference. He had to hang up on him a short time later so Robin could finish up her news. They finished the show around 10:45.
Howard had an exciting day yesterday after his big announcement about his move to satellite radio in 2006. He went out and made a statement to some TV reporters who were waiting downstairs after the show. He said it was impossible for him to get out of there without talking to someone. He figured that if he talked to them, they wouldn't follow him around. He got back to his apartment and spoke to another 10 or 11 journalists. It was pretty nuts and a big deal to him. He told the reporters that the coolest thing about his job is that he can flip a switch and reach millions and millions of people. If he decides to do a project on TV or film, he can do pretty well after promoting it. They've been pretty successful after all of these years in the business. He believes that there's more for him on satellite than there is on regular broadcast radio. Today he said that he isn't knocking broadcast radio and that Infinity has been good to him all of these years.
Howard said the people who are upset today are these religious nuts who have tried to get him off the air for years. He said that it took the wind out of their sails. There are many articles he has to get to this morning. He'll also be on his bulletin board this weekend trying to answer questions about the Sirius satellite stuff. He wants to make sure people know that he's going to be on his current station for 15 months. Gary came in and said that he got some voice mail yesterday from people who think that he's ''giving up'' and that he's a pussy. Howard said he isn't giving up, he's moving on. He could stay there at his station for an additional 5 years but he doesn't want to do that. He said he makes a great living there and the reason he's making the move is so he can make the show grow. He sees this as putting his fist down Clear Channel's throat. He wants to make their stations worth nothing and this is his first step.
Howard took some phone calls after that. Bobo called in and said that he's happy for Howard and he'll follow him wherever he goes. Howard talked about how he can't even play stuff that they did a year ago on the show anymore because of what has gone on with the FCC lately. Gary told Howard that they can't even play some of the stuff for their F-Emmy awards because they're not allowed to say certain things on the air that they have said in the past. Howard said his ratings have never been higher than they are now but he thinks that going to a new medium is the best way to go.
Howard is happy that his show will be available in place it's never been available before. He just wants the government off his back and this is the way it's going to happen. Howard believes that because he is going to satellite radio, it is going to take off like never before. Clear Channel basically runs a majority of the radio stations out there and he wants to crush them because of what they did to him. He said he's really psyched about the whole thing.
Howard said that he was hoping to be able to go over to the new studios at Sirius to check them out and he wanted to bring some of the audience. He said that the people over there kind of freaked out so he has to put that off for a while. They may do that in a couple of weeks though. Robin has heard stories about the equipment over there at Sirius and they're all set. They just got some digital equipment installed at their radio station in the past couple of weeks and now Howard is leaving. Howard said they still have 15 months to play with it though.
Mike, the guy who calls Howard a ''Hook nosed Jew Bastard'' every day, says he's going to be following Howard to satellite. He also said that he heard that Clear Channel was involved with XM satellite but Howard said they did invest in it a while ago but they're not involved in it now. He also pointed out that they have nothing to do with Sirius either. Howard is going to be hiring some people to work for Sirius to work on the 3 channels he'll be programming over there at Sirius. He's going to do what he can to make the medium grow once he gets on over there.
Howard talked about how great Chris Rock's comedy special was on HBO and how they couldn't even play 75 percent of it on his broadcast radio show. When he moves to satellite, he'd be able to play the whole thing.
Howard said he was looking out his car window yesterday looking at guys walking down the street wondering if they'll buy a Sirius tuner to hear the show. He figures some people won't buy them right away but eventually, they may purchase a new car with satellite installed already and they'll tune in to hear what he's up to. It may take some time but he'll build an audience once again.
Howard was asked if anyone else on the show has been signed to work with him. He said that he is the only one who has been signed but he's pretty sure that everyone will stay together as they have in the past. Robin said she and Fred were happy yesterday but they didn't know why, because they don't have contracts yet. Howard said Gary was happy because he knows that he may have work after this current contract is up. Howard said he was ready to leave this company already so he was out no matter what. He's not even ready to say goodbye to Viacom because they've been good to him. He figures that some day they could buy Sirius or something like that so he may see them in the future.
Howard will be playing some audio clips of these religious nuts who have tried to get him off the air for years. One guy was lost as he was trying to comment on Howard's announcement. The people won't have a purpose in life anymore now that Howard is moving on. Gary told Howard that he has seen Howard get really pissed about the things they've been doing to his show. He's been really down for a while now but yesterday, Howard was showing an excitement that Gary hasn't seen in a while. Howard really is excited about it and he knows that it's an investment because it's going to cost people about $13 a month. Gary said years ago people thought it was crazy to pay for TV with cable and satellite but now it's a regular thing.
Tom Chiusano came in and asked Howard to ''cool it'' with the advertising for satellite radio. Howard told Tom that he doesn't want to knock radio because it's still a huge business while satellite hasn't made any money yet. He said he's not going to tell people to buy the satellite equipment now, if Sirius wants to do that, they can buy advertising. Howard asked Tom if he thinks he should be channel 69 on Sirius when he makes the move. Tom said that would be appropriate for Howard. Gary was the one who got Tom to come in when he was talking about how many different great channels there are on satellite radio.
Howard said he thinks that all of this news is just going to make his show grow and that means more revenue for the company while he's there. Tom agreed and said he thinks this will be even better than the past 18 years he's been there. Howard will still be there in New York working from Rockefeller Center as he did when he worked for WNBC years ago. Tom told Howard that he has a great deal of respect for Howard and he's really going to miss him when he leaves. He's proud that he was part of the whole show for years.
Howard thought he saw Gary crying after Tom made his speech but Gary swore that he wasn't. Howard called him Baba BooHoo when he saw that. Gary swears he wasn't crying and he would tell them if he was.
Crazy Cabbie called in and said that it's funny that Tom is complaining about the satellite radio push but you can turn on K-Rock every day and hear ads for satellite. Tom said that it's one thing when the ads are being paid for and when they're free. Sirius isn't paying for ads on the station at this time so he's trying to keep Howard from talking about it so much. Howard was asked to take a break so they could make some money for the station.
Howard had a lot of people on the phone to comment about all of this. One guy said that he's a stock trader and people were calling in trying to buy some ''Howard Stern'' stock. Howard said that Benjy wanted to buy some stock yesterday so he was going to go to Sal the Stockbroker but he was afraid that he might steal from him. Gary had to tell him that Sal isn't the only Stockbroker around so he could go to someone else if he doesn't trust him. Sal can do that stuff and a few people approached him about buying stock so he was a busy man yesterday. The caller said he was very busy as well with that stock. Robin heard about people who were buying stock in Sirius as well.
A listener called in and said that he just sold his stock in Sirius last week because he needed some money for bills. Howard wanted to give him a $500 prize but they didn't have any left for him. Gary told Howard that they could give him a $500 prize courtesy of Bally Total Fitness so that's what they did.
Artie went over and tried to fit into the EIB chair. He said that it felt like it was going to collapse when he sat in it. Howard wanted Scott DePace to come in and sit in it because he's a big fan of Rush. Scott came in and said he's not that big a fan of Rush's and he listens maybe 20 minutes a day. Scott said that it was actually kind of comfortable but Howard said it was already leaning to one side. Scott eventually admitted that it did feel a little flimsy. Artie figures the cost of the chair is actually about $80. Robin thought the logo looked really awful as well and you can't even read it. Howard sent Scott back to the E! studio to direct his show. Howard said that when Rush is pushing that chair he's talking about how it's a ''plush leather chair'' when it's actually neither.
Ronnie the Limo Driver wondered why Howard chose to believe Chaunce. He admitted that he was goofing on Richard when he said he was gone in 2 weeks anyway so he shouldn't be so happy. That led to Howard talking about how weird Ronnie is. He said Ronnie provides a limo service and he recently lost his old limo. He sold it and while he was waiting for the new one, he was going to be getting driven around in a truck. The new limo isn't ready yet but Howard is still paying for a limo service. Robin said she saw him in the truck and thought that was his new ride. Howard now has to suffer because Ronnie sold the car early. He doesn't understand why he has to be involved in that.
Howard told Ronnie that he shouldn't have sold that old car until he got the new one. Ronnie said he was supposed to have it by now but there were some problems. Ronnie said he told Howard it might be a couple of days that he'd be driven around in the truck. Howard said he's not comfortable telling him ''no'' so he should just think about that stuff himself. Howard said it's now become his problem instead of just Ronnie's problem. He needs to do some work that's private but he can't do it in the truck he's being driven around in.
Howard and Ronnie went back and forth on the whole limo thing for a couple of minutes. Howard told Ronnie that this is like going to Scores and finding out that there are no strippers there, they'll be there next week. Howard told Ronnie that he should go rent a limo if he has to. He's paying for a limo service and that's what he should be driven around in. Ronnie wondered why Howard has to do this stuff on the air and not talk to him off the air about it. Ronnie said all Howard had to do was say ''no'' when he asked him about driving him around in the truck. Howard wanted to know when he'd have his new car. Ronnie said that ''hopefully tomorrow'' he'll have it.
Dominic Barbara called in and told Ronnie to use his limo until he gets his new one. He said that he has everything Howard needs in the car. He told him he could pick it up this morning if he wanted. Howard told Dominic he doesn't need it and hung up on him. Howard continued to complain about how much of a hassle it was to get driven around and not be able to do his business in private. Howard wondered who owns Ronnie's old car now because he might go hire them to drive him around. Ronnie said that a guy up in Connecticut owns it and Gary knows the guy so Howard wanted his number so he can hire him. Ronnie told Howard that he's going to work things out for him as soon as possible.
Howard got back to the letter that Chaunce sent. He said that Fred was walking around mumbling something all morning after the big announcement yesterday. Howard finished up with that and went to commercial break so he could bring Drew Carey in.
Drew was happy about Howard moving to Sirius satellite radio because he bought everyone on his TV show the units when that was still going on. He loves it and thinks that Howard will be great on satellite. Drew said that the FCC is now just protecting the poor people from hearing dirty words because anyone with money can go out and buy cable or satellite and hear whatever they want. Howard talked to Drew about how ridiculous things have gotten with the FCC. They also talked about how the government didn't need to get involved with the whole Janet Jackson thing either because people could have policed that themselves. Howard likes that the religious groups out there who have been trying to get him off the air are going to freak out because they've been able to raise so much money using his name.
Howard talked to Drew about his old girlfriend who he helped out with college. He's still paying for her schooling which Howard seems to find kind of funny. He went on to talk about how successful Drew has been over the past 10 years or so. He had a successful run of 9 years with The Drew Carey show and his improv show ''Whose Line Is It Anyway'' did well also. Now he has ''Drew Carey's Green Screen'' show where they do improv and then edit in stuff in the background over the green screen they shoot on.
The new show isn't like ''Whose Line'' because they add in all of these extra things. Drew said that he sold the idea for the show to the WB within 7 minutes. He said he sold it as the ''best get high show'' and that worked. Howard spent a minute on that and then brought in Eden and Jen from Scores. They were going to improv some things with Drew. Drew told them that they were going to improv and take their tops off any time he says ''monkey.''
Howard spent a little more time talking to Drew about the women he's dated and what happened to the last girl he had. Drew said he broke up with his last girlfriend over the phone and she yelled at him for about 20 minutes about doing it over the phone. Drew said he didn't want to have the confrontation in person. She was only 24 years old and she was really nice according to Artie. Howard tried to find out what it was that made Drew break up with her. He said things just didn't work out. He said he met his new girlfriend at a Karaoke thing.
Artie told a story about hanging out with Drew and Sam Simon out in Las Vegas one year. Sam and Drew hit big after betting on a game. Artie lost $10,000 that day while Sam and Drew were jumping up and down because they'd won. Drew told Howard that he likes to bet and he once won $100,000 in a card game.
Drew talked about how much money they would make from doing the ''Whose Line'' thing. They'd shoot like 10 shows on a weekend and make tons of money for everyone who worked on it. Howard had Drew do the improv thing with the strippers in the room. Howard told Drew that he was going to improv that Eden was Drew's girlfriend and Jen is his wife who comes home and finds him in bed with her. The girls got naked and prepared for their improv. Eden sat next to Drew after getting naked. Jen was topless as well because she was going to be the wife who comes in and finds her husband with his girlfriend. Drew wasn't sure it was going to work out well but they did get to see some women naked so that was the bonus.
Jen wasn't sure what to do so Gary and Howard tried to give her some pointers. Not only do they have to improv that but they have to do the ABC game where every sentence starts with the next letter of the alphabet. Drew started it off with ''A, that was some good sex.'' Eden said ''But of course'' and things went downhill from there. Howard wanted to just move on and tickle the girls in the Rush Limbaugh EIB chair he got earlier. Howard told Drew about the chair and how he paid $900 for that.
Howard wanted Drew to take over the improv but things just weren't working out. Drew said they could play a game where everything they say has to be a question. That fell apart pretty quick as well. Howard decided to bail out and gave Drew a plug for his new show that starts tonight on the WB.
Gary told Howard about the new slot machine Drew has coming out. Howard heard that those things are a big money maker. Gary told Howard how the Wheel of Fortune slots are huge and they're so big now that they won't sell them, they lease them out and the company, IGT, gets three percent of the revenue. Drew has his own machine now and he'll be getting some money from that. He doesn't get the 3 percent but he does get some money from it. Drew said there's about a million a year to be made if he did something like that. Howard said he'd never do that himself though. Howard gave the girls from Scores some plugs and wrapped up the segment a short time later.
Howard played tape of Dan Rather reading a story about Howard going to Sirius. There were some other news clips that he went through after that. There were also a lot of newspaper articles that he wanted to go through. Tom Chiusano came in and said he wanted to sit in if he was going to read Bill Hoffman's article. He apparently commented on Tom so he wanted to defend himself. Bill said something about Howard not having to battle with Tom anymore. Howard defended Tom because it's not really his fault that they have to hit the dump button on the show. It's all got to do with the FCC and the fines they're getting hit with. Bill wrote a nice article about the whole thing and wrapped it up saying ''And Baba Booey to y'all'' at the end of it.
Howard read another article by another guy who seemed to get the whole thing. He talked about how Howard isn't just going to go on satellite and use 4 letter words for no reason. He's still got to have content, and he will. There were a bunch of nice articles about him and he was very happy with that.
Howard said his 11 year old daughter really didn't care that he's going to satellite and that's what he loves about her. He also talked about how he'll be on his bulletin board this weekend answering questions for the fans.
Howard said that Vice President Cheney said the other day that he'd just met John Edwards when they did the debate the other night. There are now pictures showing up all over the web showing the other three meetings Cheney had with Edwards. Howard said that's just showing that Cheney is a liar. There were some other things about Cheney that he pointed out before moving on.
Chaunce Hayden sent Howard a picture of a woman he met on the bulletin board who is really hot. Chaunce claims he's going to meet with her soon and she's apparently a Playboy model.
Howard asked Kiedis about the whole Cher babysitting thing. He told Howard that he was friends with Sonny Bono when he was a young kid and he got to hang out with them. Cher was really hot back then and she looked so different back then. She slept in the same bed as he did but Anthony said that he doesn't think that she was attracted to him. It was actually Sonny who was supposed to be watching him at the time but he went out with someone else and they asked Cher to keep an eye on him. Anthony said that she was a good hang and he got to talk to her for a while. Cher did get naked when she changed in the bathroom and Anthony could see her in there. She put on a nightie and got into bed with him. Howard wondered if he was laying there aroused after that. Gary came in and told Howard that in the book, ''Scar Tissue,'' it says that she was in bed naked. Anthony said that must be Ratso embellishing what he heard. There were a lot of rewrites in the book and that one must have been overlooked. Anthony said she was wearing a nightie from what he remembers. Howard wondered if people thought it was kind of odd that Cher slept with him. Anthony said it was the 70's and nothing was weird back then. Howard never had anything like that going on in his life though. He said his mother wouldn't let him into bed with her, never mind Cher.
Anthony's father didn't have many boundaries when he was growing up so his father had him smoking pot with him at the age of 11. He sniffed cocaine by 12 or so. His father also let him bang his girlfriend after asking about it. Now his father is running his fan club. Howard read through a bunch of other things that came out of the new book. He got Hepatitis C but he was able to cure himself somehow.
Howard thought that Anthony had sex with Flea's girlfriend one time but it turns out it was Flea's sister, not his girlfriend. There are stories about the drugs that Anthony has done over the years. Howard found some other stuff that Anthony wasn't even so sure about. It sounds like Ratso may have embellished quite a few things when he helped write the book.
Anthony says that his father was a drug dealer to celebrities so he got to meet quite a few famous people. Anthony said that he had trouble concentrating on the things that kids should concentrate on because there was so much going on.
Robin wondered what kind of father Anthony is. He didn't have time to answer because Howard had so many other questions. He asked anthony about the time he banged his father's girlfriend. Anthony got into details and said he was 12 years old at the time. He was hanging out at a bar that he was a regular at quite often. Both of them were high at the time and Anthony asked his father if he could sleep with her. His father said it was fine and let the two of them go at it. Anthony said that it was pretty scary because it was like diving into the deep end for the first time.
Gary came in and read another excerpt from Anthony's book where he talks about banging a hot chick while they were on the road one time. He was kind of denying it before Gary came in. Gary also pointed out that Anthony had claimed that he slept with about a hundred girls that year but he was kind of upset that Howard was claiming that it was ''hundreds'' of girls.
Howard said that they had a girl out in the green room who showed up at the station when she heard that Anthony was going to be there. She says she's willing to do anything to get on the show. Howard wanted to bring her in so they could see her freak out. She said she was willing to get naked if she had to but Howard just wanted to see her reaction. Melanie came in and said she's not an obsessed fan or anything, she just wanted to meet him. Howard let Melanie say a few words to Anthony before kicking her out of the studio. She was rambling and asking questions about whether or not the socks would be returning to their shows. Howard kicked her out a short time later.
Howard gave Anthony another plug for his book ''Scar Tissue'' and then took a few phone calls for him. Richard Christy called in as Anthony's father Blackie and asked him if he wanted to go out and get a beer and a needle after the show. Anthony said his father doesn't sound like an idiot so he knew it wasn't him. Another caller asked what it was like shooting up LSD. Anthony said you peak instantly when you do it that way. It also goes away quicker though.
Gary came back and thanked Anthony for putting some pictures of his ex-girlfriends in the book. One of them was a topless photo of Ione Skye. Howard took another call, this one from Zolar, pretending to be a woman as usual. Anthony knew it was a dude before Zolar broke into his deep voice though so the joke was spoiled. Howard thanked Anthony for coming in and wrapped up the interview a short time later.
Howard has been hearing from all kinds of people who have been congratulating him. He got notes from Jimmy Kimmel and Ron Zimmerman and many people you've never heard of. John Stamos, AJ Benza and others of that calibur have sent him notes congratulating him.
Howard had Wendy the Retard on the line to explain what's going on to her. Wendy doesn't know what's going on and isn't even sure what Sirius is. Howard told Wendy that she's going to have to get on a rocket ship to go to the satellite where she can pick up the signal. She agreed to do that and said she didn't mind. Howard told her they'd get her there somehow.
Howard and Robin told Wendy that they're going to be on her local station for another 15 months, which she figured was about 45 years, and then they'll move to a new station on satellite. Robin told her she'll be able to say anything she wants to once they get on satellite. Wendy seemed to be understanding what was going on after a couple of minutes of explanation. Howard said he'll make sure she's set up with the equipment so she can tune in and listen.
Mariann from Brooklyn called in and said she's going to be leasing a car that has satellite radio. She feels that she wants to help pay Howard back for all the years of entertainment that he's brought to his fans. Mariann was going crazy telling Howard how excited she was about him going to satellite. Fred played her usual crow cawing sound effects in the background as they were talking.
Howard said that they're going to be building a new studio for him over there at Sirius. He hasn't even had the time to go over to check out the facilities yet. He wanted to take Robin over there today and bring some of the audience to check it out as well but they didn't think they had enough security over there to handle that.
Robin started her news a short time later. During the news Artie and Howard started to talk about the new Scores down in Ft. Lauderdale. Artie is making an appearance down there on Friday so he told Howard he should fly down with them. Gary and Ronnie the Limo Driver will be down there as well. It sounded like Howard was thinking about it but he didn't make any commitments.
Howard realized that he may have to finish up his 15 month contract by just playing music because of this indececy bill that's goingto be passed soon. Robin read a story about how they're getting closer to finalizing the bill and getting it put into law.
Howard's buddy Ralph called in and congratulated Howard on the Sirius satellite thing. That got Howard talking about it once again. He told Robin that he already has his first show planned. He said he's going to play every bit that has gotten bleeped without the bleeps. Howard isn't sure if he will be able to bring all of his tapes with him over to Sirius but he's not worried about it. If he can't bring them, he'll just create new ones.
Howard and Artie were doing their High Pitch Erik impressions during the news after Fred played some clips of him from some recent prank calls that he made. Artie thinks it's hilarious when Erik says ''Who's High Pitch?'' as he was doing his Kelly Clarkson impression during a prank call to Eric the Midget. Erik has an odd speech pattern that just cracks Artie up. They wrapped up the show around 10:45.
Howard started off the show saying he had lots to get to. He had been up since 2 in the morning after waking up and not being able to go back to sleep. Fred played a couple of clips of Wendy the Retard's recent call where she was freaking out about not having electricity after a hurricane hit her area. Howard said that's the way he feels. He talked about how he read through his e-mail last night and all of the religious freaks are freaking out about his move to satellite.
Robin told Howard that she was at the Opera last night so they talked about that for a short time. Artie told Robin to invite him the next time she goes and Howard thought he was nuts for making that request. Robin said Vinnie Favale was with her at the Opera and at intermission he asked if the show was over. Robin told him it was just intermission and he thought she was kidding.
Howard brought up Survivor and how the old, fat, ugly guys are voting out the himbos on the show. He likes that it's like Revenge of the Nerds on this season's shows.
Howard read through some articles about his move to satellite where reporters asked people if they were going to pay $12 a month to listen to him. Howard said they're missing the point of why he's moving to satellite. He went there first for freedom, he'll be producing a couple of stations over there as well. He knows that there will be people who won't follow him over there but the $12 a month isn't just for him. There are hundreds of stations and he believes in the product. Howard listened to the comedy channel on Sirius yesterday and thought it was great. He talked about how people don't have to listen to him for that $12 a month. Howard is going to concentrate on this new medium and put all of his efforts toward that once he makes the move. Howard knows that the broadcast radio industry still has room to grow once he's gone but he's been held back because of the FCC.
Howard started working on two new channels for Sirius and he claims that he's already started hiring people for those new stations. He claims that he has tons of ideas for the new stations but he's still going to concentrate on his current show for the next 15 months. Howard got back to a story about this guy from Morality in Media who said something about how moving to satellite is not an acceptable compromise to him. Howard said that this is a ''checkmate'' to those freaks because there's nothing they can do about it. This asswipe went on to complain that Howard was not part of an additional subscriber fee based channel on Sirius. Howard said that's just not going to fly because you can't regulate something that people pay for like satellite. Howard pointed out that you can't regulate the HBO's and other pay channels because people have the choice to pay for those channels or not to pay for them. Howard said that these people don't have to expose their children to this service because they don't have to pay for it if they don't want it.
Howard was listening to the comedy channel on his Sirius tuner yesterday and the curse words were flying and you hardly even notice it. Howard knows that these people are going to continue to try and fight to get him off the air but it's pointless. He also thinks that satellite radio is going to make it's move past regular broadcast radio within 5 years. Someone made the comparison between Milton Bearle's move from radio to TV to Howard's move from regular radio to satellite radio.
Dan the Song Parody Man called in and said he's really excited about the move to satellite and if Howard wanted to really put it to these religious groups, he could charge one penny extra for a premium channel. Howard said he's not going to do that to his fans though. He refuses to charge any premium. Dan talked about how he loves his satellite radio and can tune in and hear stuff he wants to hear every day when he can't find it on regular radio.
Tom Chiusano came in and asked Dan where he's making his money these days. Dan said he's making it in a couple of ways and he does make some from regular, terrestrial radio. Howard told Tom that they will still make money but satellite is going to take off like never before. He told Tom to come with him over to Sirius because he sees the future. Tom told Howard that he's a smart guy and wondered where his offer was to follow him over there. Howard told him he's working on it.
Howard knows that Viacom has contacted someone already to replace him in 15 months. He got a call from the guy who asked him if he could come with him over there to Sirius. Howard said he told the guy that there are still opportunities to make it big in FM broadcast radio so he should take the job.
Howard asked Tom what he's going to do after he leaves the station. Tom said he's not sure what he's going to do at that time. He's still a young man and he doesn't know what he wants to do. Howard told Tom that he would work with him again over at Sirius even though they've had problems there. Howard knows that the problems aren't Tom's fault, he's just the one who has to help keep the station's license and hits the delay button.
Howard said he's going over to check out the studios at Sirius next week on Monday or Tuesday. Dan told him that he's going to be blown away but what he sees over there. Howard asked Tom if he wanted to go over there with him but Tom didn't want to do that. Dan asked Howard if he would have signed on to stay at his current station if the FCC pressure wasn't there. Howard said he would have stayed if there was no pressure from the FCC.
Howard kept trying to convince Tom to follow him over to satellite because he will have a job for him over there. Cabbie called in and asked Howard who they offered his job to. Howard said he didn't want to say who it was yet but he's a very nice guy. Cabbie was also wondering what kind of channels he's going to be programming over at Sirius. He didn't want to talk about that stuff yet either. Cabbie wondered if he could come with him over there. Howard said that they'll all make the move over there so he was invited. He knows that even Tom can't contain his excitement over this whole thing. Tom kept asking Howard to go to commercial break so they could make some money.
Howard brought up the indecency bill that is yet to be signed. He suggested that everyone on radio just stop broadcasting when it finally gets signed. Tom said that the people pushing this bill are really stepping on the first amendment in many ways. Howard had to go to commercial break shortly after that.
Howard got back to this indecency bill that's pending right now. He said that they've included blasphemy in the bill so they could fine people for saying God Damnit or something like that. Howard seems to think that it's ridiculous that this crap is going to pass and get signed into law.
Howard said he didn't want to forget about the great Rodney Dangerfield who passed away earlier this week. Robin said that Rodney didn't get a break until later in life so he always remembered that and tried to help out young comedians who were trying to make it. That led into Fred's tribute song ''Dear Rodney'' that Howard played a couple of times during yesterday's show. Howard said that Rodney was a big supporter of the show and he was always good to him. He said he was invited to Rodney's funeral but it's in Los Angeles so he won't be able to make it.
Howard moved on to read some mail about the World's Biggest Hemorrhoid contest that aired on E! the other night. People loved the show and the reactions the guys were giving as they looked at the huge hemorrhoids.
There were other e-mails about Ronnie the Limo Driver not having his new limo ready for Howard yesterday. Howard said that Ronnie got his new limo but it's a stretch truck. He told Ronnie that he trusts his taste but he was wrong. It's a big, black truck that's about half a city block long. He said the seats are so far apart that he can't even put his feet across to put them up. Howard said he now wants him to sell that one and get something smaller. Howard said it's a ''stupid car'' and he doesn't want to be driven around in it. Ronnie came in freaking out that he can never make Howard happy. Howard said that the back seat is uncomfortable but the car has everything but a Jacuzzi in it.
Howard complained about the last car Ronnie had because there was a light in there that people kept hitting their heads on. Ronnie said the whole reason they sold that car was because Beth hit her head on that light. Howard sent Robin down to look at his new limo so she could see what he was talking about. Artie wanted to go along and check it out as well. Howard asked if they could paint his name on the side of the giant limo. Artie said they could call him ''H-Diddy'' or something like that. Howard joked that he ran into P. Diddy and even he said that the new car was a bit ostentatious. Artie said that the car is probably bigger than Jeff the Drunk's new trailer park house. Howard was making some big ship horn sounds as he was talking about how big the friggin thing is.
Howard's kids hate being in a limo to begin with and now they're never going to be seen with him again. Ronnie told Howard that he sucks because he asked him about the car a bunch of times but he never went down to check them out himself. Howard told Ronnie that he wants him to sell this car and he'll make up the difference between that one and the new one. Artie and Howard continued to goof on the new limo for a few minutes. They played the ''Lean Back'' song and told Ronnie to go blast it from the new limo. Ronnie claims that he talked to Howard about this and Howard agreed to the new truck because it was actually a little smaller than the old car. Howard was serious about selling the new limo and getting another, normal limo. Howard told him to just paint ''BET'' on the side and sell it to them. Artie and Howard were relentless as they goofed on Ronnie. Artie told Ronnie that Howard wanted to do a drive-by on his way home in the new limo.
E! sent a camera down to the garage to get video of the new limo so Robin wouldn't have to go down there. Artie and Robin were laughing as they saw the size of the limo. Robin thought there was something behind the car because it was so long. Artie said that Springsteen is playing smaller venues. Howard called it the ''S.S. Mund.'' Gary said that it's like what kids rent when they go to the prom. Ronnie said that it gets about 12 miles per gallon so Robin told him that if gas prices go any higher, that car is going to get rolled. Ronnie said they're really going to have to sell it now because everyone is going to see it on TV and know who it is. Artie told him there are plenty of them driving around the city, they'll never be noticed. Robin said the car just blends right in and no one will notice it. She said it'll be like having a spotlight on him wherever he goes. Howard had to take another break after that bit of fun.
Howard got in a plug for tonight's E! show featuring Donald Trump. That led to Robin talking about Howard's new limo again. She and Artie went down to see it during the break. They said it was nice but no one is going to be able to stop looking at it. A phone caller told Howard that they can use it for Howard's new broadcast studio when he makes the move to satellite. Howard told Ronnie that he wants to stay low key so Ronnie told him to not have a limo at all if that's the case. He argued that it's not a party limo like Howard seems to think it is. Artie said it's perfect if you're constantly pulling up your pants and doing the rockaway (referring to the Lean Back song).
There were discussions about how white women tend to be larger than white women down there and Asian women tend to be smaller. The delay hits were pretty constant. Whenever Dr. Templer would say something, the delay would be hit. There was some talk about how men tend to get smaller as their life goes on but the delay hits kind of chopped that up too much to follow.
Howard asked the Dr. about being circumcised or not. Dr. Templer said that women tend to be split 50/50 on that subject. He also told Howard that he has chapters in the book about increasing size so Howard asked if any of that work. Dr. Templer said there have been no studies about that so there is nothing saying whether they work or don't work.
Howard also wondered if guys with small penises have to try harder so they might satisfy women better. Dr. Templer said that he likes that Howard is so honest. He said that guys who claim they're not worried about size are lying. Dr. Templer said that it's also true that guys who have large hands and large feet do tend to have larger penises. There were questions about girth and the Dr. Said that stuff like that does matter to some women.
Howard took a couple of phone calls including one from Gay Ramone. Ramone was wondering what the name of the book was. Templer told him the name and gave out a phone number for the publisher. They were going to give away 10 free books and then take 50 percent off for the next 20 callers and 25 percent off for the next 20 callers.
Dr. Templer said that studies show that gay men tend to want larger penises compared to women who really don't. A caller asked Dr. Templer about being gay. Templer said he is heterosexual and the more gay men there are in this world, the more women there are for him. Howard started to wrap up the call a short time later and let him get in another plug for the phone number for the publisher which was (888) 542-BOOK.
Howard said he had to keep the call short because he didn't know if the show was getting chopped up with the delay hits. He said he has to wait until 2006 to be able to talk about that stuff freely. Chaunce Hayden called in a short time later and said he wanted to ask the doctor about his penis problems. Howard said that Chaunce is kind of weird because he shows his penis on the bulletin board. He talked to him about that for a short time and then got him off the phone.
There were some odd things in the article about how Matt would pretend to be passed out in the back of the limo when they'd bring the gay guys to have sex with him. The guys spent a few minutes talking about the long article about all of this stuff. Robin asked Howard if he would sue a guy like this if he came out with a story like that. Howard said he absolutely would. Robin said it seems kind of odd that Matt hasn't slapped the guy with a lawsuit yet.
Howard said that they got a tape from a really hot woman who wants to enter the upcoming Amputee Beauty Pageant. Artie said she looks like Pam Anderson without one arm. The guys talked about whether or not they'd be able to bang a chick who's missing an arm or not. Artie and Gary both said that wouldn't be a problem for them. According to Gary It's tough to forget she doesn't have an arm when you're out to dinner but when you're having sex it's different. Howard had to go to commercial after that.
Howard said he's unbelievably excited about his big announcement this week. He knows it's still a ways off but it's the beginning of something brand new that's going to be great. He brought up how the religious right is freaking out already about the move. They're against Howard moving to satellite and they think that people should be paying a premium above the monthly rate to hear Howard. FCC chairman Michael Powell was asked about the satellite medium and what he thinks about not being able to control it. Powell gave his half-assed explanation about that and then talked about the Janet Jackson Super Bowl fines. He said that they only fined the Viacom owned and operated stations so that was supposed to make the fines okay.
Howard said that these religious groups make big money off trying to get him off the air and now they're screwed. He talked about how great satellite is going to be once he gets on and starts things rolling. He said that the radio industry has to be freaking out as well because their biggest star is moving to satellite. He's been trying to get a bunch of other radio guys to follow him over there as well. He's putting all of his energy into that whole thing to make it as big as possible.
Howard took a couple of phone calls after that. One guy told Howard that the religious nuts are going to come after him no matter where he goes. Robin also reminded Howard that there is a senator out there who wants to try and regulate pay channels like HBO on cable and satellite. Howard knows that there are people out there who want to control his show but they can't let that happen. The caller told Howard that there were people like that in the past and they called them Nazis.
Tom Chiusano came in and told Howard it was time for ''It's Just Wrong'' which is something that Tom would never do. He figured he was uncomfortable with him talking about his move to satellite radio. Tom wanted Howard to get off the subject and get to the ''It's Just Wrong'' thing. Howard said he's going to go on Howard Stern.com this weekend and talk to the fans about all of this stuff.
The girls said their boyfriend and family don't know that they're doing this today. They're keeping it a secret from them who are up in Canada. Howard asked them some questions about their sex lives and then moved on to the other girls.
Sheri and Kerri were the twins. Howard asked them about their education to find out how they might do in the game. The girls said that they shower together but they don't soap each other up or anything like that. They also told Howard that they have kissed each other but not in a sexual way. One of the girls has had 4 kids and she needs some stomach surgery done on her. Her sister wants implants so that's why they're playing today.
Howard moved on to the game and started off with Sherri and Kerri. He went to Sherri first and asked her who the Prime Minister of England was. She had no idea. Kerri had to strip off Sherri's dress. She was down to bra and panties after that. Howard told Sherri that she had to strip off Kerri's clothes as well. She had to take off a pair of panties.
Howard then moved on to C (name removed) and K (name removed). He asked C (name removed) who created the comic strip ''Peanuts.'' She thought about it for a few seconds and couldn't come up with an answer. C (name removed) took off K (name removed)'s dress first. Howard told her that she didn't need breast implants after seeing her. Howard was aroused after K (name removed) took off C (name removed)'s dress. Mike Gange told Howard that the girls had perfect asses so they turned around to show him.
Sherri and Kerri were up again so Howard asked Kerri what state Ronald Regan was the governor of. She thought it was Wisconsin but she was wrong of course. Both girls had to strip off each other's clothes once again. The girls stripped each other and Howard moved on to the next question.
Howard asked K (name removed) ''Who is the current secretary of defense?'' She didn't know the answer so it was time for them to strip off more clothes. C (name removed) took off K (name removed)'s bra and K (name removed) did the same for her sister. Howard told C (name removed) that she doesn't need implants. Her sister didn't need anything either. Gary told Howard that K (name removed) is in good shape but C (name removed) could use a lift.
Howard got back to Sherri and Kerri. He asked Sheri ''What former first lady started a substance abuse center?'' There was no answer for that one either. Howard told them it was the Betty Ford Clinic. Right over their heads it went. Howard had Kerri take off Sherri's top. She was totally nude at that point. Howard told her that her boobs looked good and she didn't need implants. They were both nude a short time later. Kerri needed some help with her stomach because of the 4 kids she had. Howard wondered how they felt standing there naked in front of them. The girls didn't seem to mind it at all.
Jeff the Drunk called in and asked when this is going to air on E!. Howard said they may have to pre-empt tonight's E! show to show this one. Howard quickly moved back to the game and asked C (name removed) ''What ocean borders California?'' She had to think about it for a few seconds. She could only come up with the Atlantic ocean. Howard gave her a few more seconds to think about it but she couldn't come up with the right answer of Pacific. The other girls knew the answer. It didn't matter because C (name removed) and K (name removed) had to strip off each other's panties. Howard said that they were spectacular. Gary said that they were ''stunning'' and could probably be in Playboy. Howard liked that they didn't know anything. All four girls were fully nude at this point.
Since the girls were tied they had to have a tie breaker. They had come up with a question or something wacky for them to do. Howard decided to do a question. The teams had to ''buzz in'' with their answer as quickly as possible. Howard asked ''If a lawyer works pro-bono, what does he work for?'' One of the girls yelled out ''Free!'' and got it right.
Dr. Calabro was on the line since he'd be offering up his service for the winners, Sherri and Kerri. Howard said that he wanted to give the other girls something as well. He was going to give them a task to complete and if they did that, he'd give them the implants, courtesy of Dr. Sal Calabro of course. Gary wanted to see the girls kiss but Fred wanted to see the sisters swap off with the other sisters and kiss them. Artie wanted to see them give oral. The girls agreed and touched each other as they made out. Howard said it was the most wrong thing he's ever seen. C (name removed) and K (name removed) made out for about 7 seconds and that was enough for Gary. He said it looked like one of the girls might have been a little more into it than the other. Dr. Calabro said he'd be posting pictures of the girls on his web site after he sees them. Howard said if E! won't run this show, he's going to put it up on his web site as soon as possible so people can see it uncensored. He went to commercial after that.
Ackerman told Howard he doesn't know how close the bill is to being signed. He said that they haven't gotten it through the Senate yet but Robin thought they had. Ackerman said he'd look into it and get back to them next week. He and Howard talked about the freedom of speech issue and how a lot of politicians don't understand that they're destroying that. He didn't want to name any names and get himself in trouble though. Howard got off the line a short time later.
Ralph said it makes sense because Howard is the kind of guy who loves to make a big scene when he shows up somewhere. Artie told Ralph that there were three other buyers for the vehicle and they all had ''Ice'' in their names. Ronnie came in a short time later and yelled at Ralph asking him what business this is of his. He asked him who he thinks he is. Ralph questioned Ronnie about why he didn't have a car for Howard for a few days but Ronnie told him it was none of his business. Howard said he has to get On-Star just so he can find his way to the front of the car because it's so big. He was goofing on the size of the car and how it's like a steam ship coming into port when he arrives somewhere.
Ronnie got in a plug for Empire State Coach who built the car but now everyone knows who built the thing. Howard said that Ronnie has a different taste than he does and it's just not his style. He made a mistake by not going to see the vehicle and he realizes that now. Tom Chiusano came in and asked why they were plugging the limo place. Ronnie said he doesn't have a deal or anything so if he doesn't want it on the air, he should hit the delay. Tom wanted to know if they had some kind of deal because they can get into trouble over that kind of stuff.
Ralph said that Ronnie could have showed Howard a picture of this thing before he bought it. Ronnie continued to yell at Ralph about all of that stuff. Another phone caller asked Ronnie if he could get another limo to drive Howard to and from the new limo. Jeff the Drunk called in and told Ronnie that he's an unprofessional moron and a jerk. The two of them went at each other for a few seconds. Chaunce Hayden called in as well and said that he heard Ronnie talking about the disco ball he bought for the limo. Ralph asked him how the dance floor is in the limo. Howard said the interior is really nice but it's just not his type of thing.
Artie said that the new limo is something you rent when you're celebrating your acquittal. Howard asked Artie if he'd drive him home instead. Ronnie came barging back in and told Howard that he won't be driving him home today. He's got one of his other guy's coming down to drive him instead. Ronnie is going to Ft. Lauderdale to the new Scores to rest his head. Ralph ended up offering to drive for Howard if he bought his own limo. Howard got off the line with him a short time later.
Howard moved on to Mike's game which goes like this...Each week Mike Walker calls in with four gossip stories. Three of the stories are from his National Enquirer gossip column. One of the stories is false. Everyone tries to pick out the false story. The stories will appear in Mike's gossip column each week after he plays with Howard. Here are this week's stories:
During the news Howard talked to Doug Goodstein and Richard Christy about their troubles getting registered to vote this year. Doug said he was actually registered to vote in two places and could have voted twice if he hadn't turned himself in. Richard Christy said he had trouble getting registered and had to go through it a second time after the first registration didn't work out.
Howard couldn't get past his new, giant limo. He asked if anyone had a captain's hat to wear when he's driving around in that thing. He said that Ronnie is actually the guy who should be wearing the captain's hat since he's the one driving it. As he was wrapping up the show he said that he thinks that it's 10 o'clock in one end of the limo and 10:30 in the other end. They ended the show around 10:35 this morning.
