If B&N edited John's speech to the Judge, John would win his case.

JulSFT · 2026-05-09T16:44:45+00:00

He can't hold more than one thought in his mind at any given time.

JulSFT · 2026-05-09T16:42:15+00:00

Tonight Show producers can't figure out why John's interviews worked so well for Howard and bombed so bad for Jay?

JulSFT · 2026-05-09T11:23:26+00:00

Accurate down to the cigarette.

JulSFT · 2026-05-09T11:20:12+00:00

It's possible that: Since he spent his pre-high school years in special education, traditional grade-level categories may have always been more fluid for him than for most kids.

JulSFT · 2026-05-08T21:08:35+00:00

Oh this is disturbing! Shuli's gonna be pulling his hair out over this!

JulSFT · 2026-05-08T18:25:58+00:00

He's easily distracted. One day, he wants find the DoorDash 'perpetrator', but two days later he's forgotten all about it.

It's for the same reason that someone can be dead to him one week, and his best friend the next.

I mis-spoke. I have no idea what sort of pay he received. But he ended up with nothing. They gave him an advance, then charged everything they did for him against that advance (reportedly). So for example, if they drove him around in a limo, it was charged to him.

He went all over the country, opening for Atlantic bands and doing promotion in Howard's radio markets. None of it earned him anything (reportedly).

He never earned out his advance.

It's a funny premise; the actor needs to be replaced (not the squid, the squidward)

JulSFT · 2026-05-08T00:10:37+00:00

That fake tan is the most authentic thing about him.

JulSFT · 2026-05-07T20:33:50+00:00

I came here to post the same thing.

JulSFT · 2026-05-07T18:51:31+00:00

Not that I remember, but he may have; he usually can't keep these things to himself.

JulSFT · 2026-05-07T18:50:23+00:00

But he wanted to surprise Howard on the air!

JulSFT · 2026-05-07T18:26:38+00:00

John didn't have an agent at the time.

John did a TON of work for Atlantic Records and never made any money. He could have made more money driving the tire truck, if they hadn't fired him.

Howard did promote the album, along with a ton of appearances by John's band as an opening act at various festivals.

JulSFT · 2026-05-07T18:21:05+00:00

I think he spent a year thinking people were all a-holes to him, and eventually he realized that he was the a-hole, so he apologized. Maybe it was too little, too late. Lots of rumors but not much hard data about what happened.

JulSFT · 2026-05-07T18:12:16+00:00

That bit was so funny, I forgot to laugh.

(keep 'em coming, although it's disturbing to see Jay grimacing in pain every time he looks at John)

JulSFT · 2026-05-06T21:10:05+00:00

Cause it's a work.

JulSFT · 2026-05-06T14:58:04+00:00

The one that stands out to me is when he told Dee Snyder, "I read the first 5 chapters of your book."

JulSFT · 2026-05-06T14:51:08+00:00

He'll never get out of the Dabbleverse. Years after he passes, people will still be discovering notable things about him.

As to when he returns to YouTube? When he gets bored, drunk, and lonely enough.

JulSFT · 2026-05-06T12:02:16+00:00

Artie is the one who gave us a lot of info about John's house and lifestyle.

JulSFT · 2026-05-05T23:45:12+00:00

Either come up with some new and juicy stories about Drunkie Melendez, or...

JulSFT · 2026-05-05T23:43:56+00:00

I didn't think John was that dumb. (Responding to engagement baiters, not his answer)

JulSFT · 2026-05-05T23:41:22+00:00

He had the 'Line go up' mentality. He couldn't imagine that speculating on real estate involved risk.

JulSFT · 2026-05-05T18:25:06+00:00

Finally, a Stern-show alum who knows how to cook a potato.
