I finally walked away from Stern, and Sirius for good about four months ago and haven't missed the routine nearly as much as I thought I would. The only people listening must be people like me, horrified longtime fans listening out of habit waiting for that shit to end. I have no idea why Sirius would give him a new contract at this point. His OCD and tunnel vision are out of control.

He freaks out when his wife gets a haircut. He doesn't leave his house nor sees anybody. Why bother taking them on if they can't talk ? Does he have ANY interesting callers not calling about politics anymore ? I don't understand any of it. When he takes callers, they're either planned calls about scripted segments, or agressive Trumpers he immediately shuts down. When he has a guest on, he switches to his patronizing shrink voice and pushes them to say that everything they do/are is because of their father. He spends the show repeating the same things about masks and Covid, and talking about 90s rock bands no one cares about, for hours. The whack pack is a thing of the past (read the country). Nobody's writing anything funny that you can tell anymore. The rare times he does that, the segment gets immediately cut out of replays. Stern himself was never funny on his own unless he went on a rant on somebody in the public eye. They're not in the studio, and the entire Stern schtick was always Howard bullying staff members or orchestrating fights between them.

He refuses to say who he's voting for and it's become a problem with the others in the staff who justifiably call him a coward. He yells, he's abrasive, stupid and aggressive. Ronnie is this old fuck who's incapable of taking any kind of preceived criticism, he shuts down and gives the silent treatment. His sound drops are fewer and usually late (they're on zoom). You could replace her with a laugh track.įred you never hear unless he's doing the "puppets" which are painfully overdone and unfunny ("Cunt! Cunt! Pussy!") I have no idea *WHO* thinks this is funny or why Fred has lost the ability to read the room. Robin spends the entire show fake-laughing at every single thing Howard says, to the point that it's become background noise. It was already taking a downturn since Trump got elected but since the lockdown it's a disaster. I'm a longtime listener and I'm shocked at the state of the show.
