I was as big a Stern fan as anybody, he's a genius and a dope at the same time and he realizes it. When he left terrestrial radio I knew I wouldn't chase after him to satellite - I had a great run listening to him, have all the classic Channel 9 shows on VHS in a box. I got bored with the sophomoric stuff and uncomfortable with the exploitation of society's rejects like Hank and Beetlejuice. The true genius of Howard was turning his workplace into a live raw sitcom and drama - all my favorite Stern show memories are cast member based, Howard's relationship with Jackie and Gary the highlights for me. Fred, Howard and even Robin doing their Jackie impersonations, tears of laughter every day. Then the Jackie Puppet - Billy West was incredible, I was so bummed out when Billy left.
I had no idea Howard was only doing the radio show 3 days a week now. Probably a Beth O thing - hated when Howard split up from his wife.
