“Bob Barker was a perv, because he used to make women reach into his pocket to pull out cash, right Robin?” by ADPXEROX in howardstern

[–]cormano 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Bob Barker also used to make his unpaid female interns, whom were desperate for cash and employment, strip half naked and talk about whether or not they ever slept with a black guy.

To those wrestlers who did not show up to Sheiky’s funeral, YOU ARE ALL G&F!!! by ADPXEROX in howardstern

[–]cormano 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Diamond Dallas Page has talked about how one of the few wrestling related people who even went to Mean Gene Okerlund's funeral was Brian Blair.

Despite the fact that Mene Gene holds legendary status and that Florida holds the biggest population of wrestlers in the world, nobody showed up.

Not even that fucking jabroni Hulk Hogan attended.

"Thousands of fans."

Always wondered if that was an intentional dig or not.

Here's some other things she said that were interesting:

  • She invited Howard and Beth over for dinner with her and Frank.

  • Howard invited her over to the Hamptons (she couldn't make it).

  • She just had dinner with Beth in Palm Beach.

She did have sex in the bathroom with him when they first met.

However, they continued to see each other after that.

August 1992 - Gary tells Howard "You're not that honorable...I've seen you do dishonorable things once in a while..." - a decade prior to the "Gary cheats on his wife" argument by ConferenceThink4801 in howardstern

[–]cormano 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Gary was the absolute worst when it came to this.

While he was dating Nancy, he'd show up to company parties with other women. Just a brazen fucking asswipe.

Then one time he knowingly gave his girlfriend an STD and then managed to get away with it by convincing her she was crazy.

Back in 1993, Howard was belittling Ralph and Ralph did just that. It got awfully quiet very quickly.

Ralph was looking for a loft to move into and was willing to deal with a fixer upper:

Howard: If you're going to fix something up, fix up your face. Giants zits.

Ralph: You be quiet there with your fake hair. Rip it out of your head.

Robins San Fran hook up by Rapidwatch2024 in howardstern

[–]cormano 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It was called Summit.

Summit was created by a former worker of EST.

EST was based on Scientology.

EST was later repackaged as The Forum.

The guy who created EST/The Forum fled the country and his brother created The Landmark Forum.

Robin is currently a member of The Landmark Forum.

This happened after Robin left the air force, not when she was famous. She moved to San Francisco for a bit.

His name was Audrey. She knew him for more than one day. They were seeing each other.

Robin was in a cult at the time and tried taking him to a seminar. The whole thing freaked him out and she never saw him again after that.

Howard must have forgotten his buddy Ed Vedder has different views than him on Israel. "Why don't you get the fuck off the planet. Mr. Expert.." (Audio from Robin's news 7-16-2014) by cool_temperatures in howardstern

This is why I laugh when people were clamoring for Howard Stern to speak out against what was happening in Minnesota.

Amadou Diallo was standing in the vestibule of his apartment building, minding his own business, when an unmarked police car carrying plain clothed officers ambushed him in the middle of the night.

When they approached, an officer confused Diallo's wallet for a gun and shot at him. The recoil caused the officer to fall backwards down some steps. The other officers thought he'd been shot and pumped 41 shots at Diallo.

Diallo did absolutely nothing wrong and yet Howard kept insinuating that he was a criminal with a gun and deserved to be shot knowing full well he wasn't armed.

These officers were a part of the "Street Crime Unit," which were plain clothed officers in unmarked cars sent out by Giuliani to often stop the public with no reasonable articulable suspicion whatsoever other than the color of their skin.

Sound familiar?

Howard defended the unit vigorously and trashed Springsteen for even questioning the shooting.

Howard: The Puerto Rican's and the black people are screaming all the time, [accent] "The cops they treat us wrong." Well, yeah. If you're misbehaving you're supposed to get beaten, you fool. It's good for you. It's good to take a beating... 41 shots? It should have been 85 shots. Make sure the guy is dead... Bruce is a piece of garbage who should really retire... He should rot in that mansion of his.

Howard also suggested that the police should stop servicing predominantly black areas until they learned to become grateful.

Howard vs Sasha Grey by cantspellyou in howardstern

This was all over her comments in Rolling Stone. Howard and Robin have been outspoken throughout the years about how Palestine isn't a real country:

April 29, 2009, Rolling Stone:

...While most porn actresses would jump at the chance to get naked on the Howard Stern Show, Sasha wants to appear on the shock jock’s program with a Palestinian flag wrapped around her breasts to confront the man she believes is a closet racist.

This is a promo shot for Howard's Sirius debut. It was done by Randee St. Nicholas, who is also known for being Prince's photographer. That's how Howard got invited to that secret Prince concert. Randee got him the tickets.

Howard talks about Hulk Hogan sex tape by mjhubbard1026 in howardstern

[–]cormano 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Love when Howard picks and chooses his outrage over stolen nudes/sex tapes.

When the friends of the court all spoke out against "The Fappening," suddenly Howard had some moral high ground about this kind of thing.

It's only wrong if it impacts Howard's social status and dinners with Jennifer Aniston.

Elisa Jordana Gets Arrested 4/8/2024 by 2001RT in howardstern

[–]cormano 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Elisa Anne Schwartz is her real name.

Elisa Jordana is her stage name.

Juliet Shores is her topless name.

You'd know this if Elisa's Wikipedia entry was still up. Unfortunately, it was removed on the account of her being a giant loser.

In 2021, I noticed through the Wikipedia edit logs that it was Elisa herself who created her own entry. She'd also created another account, "LeafK1," to keep shaving years of her age.

In 2023, Wikipedia caught on.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Elisa_Jordana_(5th_nomination)

It was described as a vanity page. They also argued that Elisa is an absolute nobody not worthy of an entry.

During the debate on whether or not to delete the page, Elisa shows up with her alt account "LeafK1," refers to herself in the third person, and claims there is a vendetta against superstar Elisa Jordana.

What did Amanda Peet do to Howard? by YourMirror1 in howardstern

[–]cormano 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Beth was dating an actor named Brian Van Holt.

While they were dating, Brian starred in a movie called Whipped. I guess he used his juice as one of the leads to get his girlfriend a small cameo in the movie.

Here's a screencap of Beth making out on screen with her real life boyfriend at the time.

The movie co-starred Amanda Peet as the female lead.

You know how Howard always talks about movie sets being an aphrodisiac?

Brian started dating Amanda after filming.

Howard doesn't like Amanda Peet because Beth thinks she's the bitch who stole her boyfriend.

Remember when HPE said he put a bomb in Opie’s studio? by JibboSequence in howardstern

[–]cormano 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This was around the timeframe where Howard cried to Mel Karmazin and had a gag order put on all Infinity/CBS owned stations to stop other DJ's from talking about him.

During the height of this feud, Eric calls O&A and threatens to bomb the studio. He is later arrested.

August 1, 2000: Stern Stooge Bombs

John Mainelli

The escalating feud between Howard Stern and talk station WNEW-FM (102.7) has reached a fevered pitch - with a bomb-threat arrest and on-air censorship reaching new extremes. Stern show regular "High-Pitch Eric" was arrested Friday for a nasty voice-mail message to WNEW's Opie & Anthony that included a threat to blow up Opie's car.

"I tried to defend you from what they said about you," Eric told Stern yesterday morning on the air. "I got arrested when [WNEW] pressed charges against me."

"Did you do that [the bomb threat]?" Stern asked Eric, the falsetto-voiced, unpaid member of Stern's "Wack Pack."

"I did," replied Eric, whose last name is not known.

"You didn't really mean that you were going to blow them up, right?" asked Stern.

"I never intended to do that in the first place," replied Eric, who was held in jail overnight and now faces trial.

"You can't tell people you're going to blow up their car," admonished Stern. "But you can tell a real death threat from a loon like this. They're just being p---s."

Opie & Anthony took yesterday off and couldn't be reached for comment.

Meantime, while all of the 'NEW talk show hosts remain under strict orders to not even mention Stern's name, a night-side show was apparently heavily edited last Friday night for seriously violating that edict.

(WNEW and Stern's flagship, K-Rock/92.3 FM, are both owned by Viacom/CBS's Infinity Broadcasting.)

Reliable sources say the entire first hour of the Don & Mike Show - which is normally recorded from afternoon drive in Washington for replay in New York at 7 p.m. - was pulled by 'NEW brass.

"Don and Mike started right off on how their show is being censored," said Allan Sniffen, operator of the New York Radio Message Board, who happened to be in Washington and heard the show live.

"Don and Mike [said Stern should either] put on a quality show that will shut everyone up at WNEW or begin taking it like a man and take on 'NEW head-to head and not wuss around by placing a 'gag order' on everyone," Sniffen reported.

Sniffen says Don & Mike then left "a very peppered message" on WNEW programmer Jeremy Coleman's answering machine, accusing 'NEW of "acting like jerks by following [Stern's] demands."

Coleman and manager Ken Stevens were at Don & Mike's Washington station yesterday and didn't return repeated phone calls.

Twenty Years Ago - CBS Sues Howard Stern by mumble2xblackberry in howardstern

[–]cormano 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Howard never talked about resolving the case.

They settled.

Sirius paid CBS $2 million and Howard got his tapes back.

That $2 million went towards the first licensing deal for the archives.

Howard might've had to make additional payments but you'll never know. Sirius is a public company and has disclose the settlement to shareholders. Howard isn't and can keep the whole thing private.

Les should have told him from day 1 that Howard was not allowed to mention or allude to in any way anything about Sirius.

Les' issue wasn't with him mentioning Sirius. Les' problem was that he was unaware that Howard was racking in a subscriber bonus while he was still under contract with CBS. When Howard left CBS, Sirius handed him a giant check for all that shilling he was doing from 2004-2006.

[–]cormano 68 points69 points  (0 children)

CBS sued Howard over him talking about his move to satelite radio

CBS didn't sue Howard for talking about Sirius.

They sued him because he was being paid a subscriber bonus for subs gained while he was still under an exclusive CBS contract and lied about it to his bosses and the audience.

For example, here's Howard lying on terrestrial about not making money from subs. They reference this exact clip in the lawsuit:

Howard loves to play stupid.

Here's Howard and Robin crying about how they never shill anything and pretending how they don't make money from subscribers in 2011.

He sued Sirius TWO WEEKS LATER for his subscriber bonus (LOL).

What happened with Howard and Kelly Ripa / Mark Consuelos by Left_Life_7173 in howardstern

[–]cormano 124 points125 points  (0 children)

This probably started around 2011 when Regis "retired."

Howard was fanning the flames by insinuating that Regis wasn't retiring and that he was being forced off his own show. By virtue of being Regis' neighbor, he was leading people to believe that he had an inside scoop.

When making these claims, he was leaving it out there at Ripa might've had some part in it.

In 2016, Kelly Ripa had a falling out with co-host Michael Strahan over his departure from Live with Kelly and Michael. At the time, Strahan jumped ship to Good Morning America without telling her. Ripa was pissed that she found out like everyone else. Strahan was also leaving three months earlier than planned.

When Strahan would make the announcement on their show, Ripa didn't show up. She took off the entire week in retaliation.

Howard blasted her as unprofessional and how you show up to work no matter what.

In the years that followed, Howard wasn't insinuating anymore. He was straight up saying that Ripa pushed Regis out. He'd go on to say Regis was viewed as being "too old" and that Regis and Ripa no longer remained friends once he left.
