Howard Stern

[Godfather]

I'd never listened to Stern in my life until recently. I knew he was a big radio host but don't have satellite radio and never heard him. The other day someone sent me a youtube link to a Stern interview with a Comedian he knew I like...

Holy crap - I was totally blown away by how good the interview was. I think I understand why he makes huge money . Stern is an incredible interviewer. He's disarming, asks fantastic questions, isn't afraid to get personal, and has a flow asking questions that get great stories out of people. He has a gift to get wild stories out of people. It's so vastly different from the canned responses that 98% of interviewers get from people. You watch a Stern interview and feel like you actually know who the interviewee is after it's done.

I'm on a binge of old episodes now online Anyone here a fan? If you have any old episode recommendations, I am all ears!

used to listen to him on whcn forever ago, there were times I almost drove off the road I was laughing so hard

[Godfather]

I love that, it's like being part of a group of funny friends except you just get to listen. The only other radio show I've laughed so much at was Loveline with Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew back when I was just a kid. I'd listen to it in bed late at night and cry laughing, but trying not to let my parents hear because I was far too young for it.


If you think of any particular episode or bits I should look up, I'm all ears. I'm on a binge right now.

the one with artie talking about being dressed as a pig and having snorted a bunch of coke and having to do that mad tv skit was f'n hilarious...other than that, tough to remember specifics....but that one with artie, ho man...

His interviews with William Shatner were always fun..
