Here's a double-dip for Saturday:

Remember when Sal and Richard would consistently bust on KC for being gay? It sure is interesting how that turned out.

I just ordered a pizza and garlic sauce, but to get the discount, I had to order it online. :(

ive been re watching fringe lately and i just came across s3e2, or more properly, the ETM episode. it was great seeing him as a bum and a guy who gets his head blown off. made me happy and miss him all at once.

That was the first Fringe episode I watched. Didn't miss one after that.

It was very x-files-ish, but way more sciency...if that makes sense.

Maybe there's an alternate world where Eric the Alternate (ha!) is 6 foot 5 and there's a little Howard in a wheelchair.

ur right. i enjoyed the x files when i was a kid but it doesnt hold up all that well. fringe was a fun new version of it. also, its neat that leonard nimoy plays a role in fringe. even though hes a regular on the show i find myself missing etm a lot more.

I was a big X-Files fan until David left. I hear they're making it again...seems like a mistake to me. I think this mainly because in the show's mythology, the full-on alien invasion was supposed to happen in 2012. By "full-on invasion," I mean ships in the sky and human enslavement. I can't see how some FBI agents and their informants could have changed the tide for that.

check out this story:

IRS Agent Broadcasts Local Woman’s Tax Issues On Howard Stern « CBS Boston

i got 3 links to it in my stern google alert today. its kinda a neat story. anyone remember this happening? im a week behind so maybe i havent heard it yet but if i did hear it i dont remember it.

I read something how it was edited out of replays. Apparently, Howard didn't dump out of it, suggesting he was half-listening to the interview.

ok i just heard the call. it was at the end of last tuesdays show. it wasnt that bad at first. the womans name is never said on air. they just talk about her paying a debt of a bit over 1k. however, right before the caller realizes hes on howard he gives out the womans full phone number. thats pretty bad.

huh, i never watched enough to know about the 2012 thing. im kinda excited to see an updated version of the show. the original was one of the last major shows where the internet was not a thing. in the early seasons cell phones were still new enough that tv didnt really know how to properly show people using them. kinda like how teweets/texts have just recently been properly used in films and tv.

In the first season of the X-Files, you see them leaving messages for the other person, etc. There are some early seasons when they have the large-style "car phone" phones. During the final season, smartphones were still a year or two away.

TV Ratings Tuesday: ‘America’s Got Talent’ & ‘Extreme Weight Loss’ Return Down, Strong Start for ‘I Can Do That’, ‘Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader’ Premieres Soft, ‘iZombie’ Steady - Ratings | TVbytheNumbers.Zap2it.com

ive said before that i dont really care about agt, but i do like to see stuff sterns involved with doing well. like the headline reads, agt was 13% down from last season but it still convincingly won the night in both the 18-49 demo and overall viewers.

Burn.


I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to have a time machine and give this to Billy/Jackie.




And in the realm of bad songs...

the buildup and payoff to the magic hour saga is in my top 3 all time favorite stern show bits.

The other two HAVE to be

Babapology
and ????

The first few moments of 1/6/09 are great with the creepy heartbeat, the 2001 theme, George and then Artie with his "Welcome to Eh-Eh-Eh" comment.



If I was doing a Best of Stern...in no particular order:

Pamela Anderson in the bathtub, calling in and the guys running over there:
Howard talking about his cleaning lady potentially finding his "man-tissue."
Artie in the pig suit...yeah, I know we've all heard this time and time again, but it's STILL FUNNY.
Artie's revelation story
Losers Wipeout
First hour or so of 1/9/06
Playboy Mansion show clips
Anything with Billy and Jackie goofing on the guys
Babapology tape being aired with the live audience
I'd probably throw in some music...Foo Fighters doing Everlong from the KRock studios is a classic. The Alanis Morisette "Everything" was a good one. Third Eye Blind did "Semi-charmed Life" as well.
Almost anything with Beet or Hank.

i like ur list a lot but id have to add the gay dance party with the goo goo dolls.



not sure exactly when the magic stuff and this went down but in my mind those two events are major parts of what made me such a stern fan. i believe they both went down somewhere around 97 which is when i started to listen on the bus on my way to school.

oh and throwing bologna at a girls ass plus HPE getting pelted with a fish need at least an honorable mention.

The gay dance party was in Fall of 1998, I want to say September. I started commuting to college then, and that's when I started listening. The party occurred during the first six weeks or so of me listening.
