Ok to the ones who say that Howard is old, washed up or over rated. Sorry your broke ass can't afford SIRIUS.
And the show will not be the same with out Artie, and my goodness if they brought Jackie back, I would quit listening. I
really think they staged this to get people in main stream media to pay attention to them. Which is fine, everyone got to earn a living
I wonder if Artie still went to Amsterdam… What do you guys think ?
you can hear the fight on Utubee, search artie and teddy fight. i couldn't believe it, he just looses it, artie that is.too over the top a reaction, something else is going on, withdrawal from something maybe? hope not, maybe he was still over tired from Wednesday night's show. will it show on howard tv tomorrow? hope so. howard wasnt' too bad and sounded like he was trying to calm things when artie accused teddy of theft. i hope they let him back and that he comes back. vacation for them next week.
You can check out the fight on www.orbitcast.com…it's about a 7 minute clip called "Listen to Artie attack Teddy and resign from Stern Show". So sad how much Artie hates himself
he cane from nothing couldn,t stand success,jerk
Uuummm, seriously guys. Vacation next week, merger, lagging economy mean slow sateillte sales, smells like a set up to me. How soon we forget the wait till Howard gets back for breaking up/engagement with Beth news!!!!!!!! Seems like a cheesy Dallas clilff hanger to me……..
I love Artie..but come on…falling asleep yesterday on the show…I think he is just looking for an excuse..and poor Teddy! Sounds like Artie is starting to have conflict with everyone on the show…first High Pitch Eric, then Teddy….Crap, I can't believe they didn't re-air the show in replay's..they should have given everyone the chance to listen to it. So..there's a little turmoil on the show..so what!! That's what we all love about it!! I'm so tired of Artie getting away with so much crap….
It's on the tubes,,check it out.
Re: adios fat fuck! –
Amen!
Artie constantly inflates the time he's been with the show — he'll claim to have been on for EIGHT years (he started — and started ruining the show — 6 1/2 years ago).
He rationalized that he took 10 days in 2 years — but it was 10 days in 15 MONTHS.
AND he's missed 3 of George Takei's first days — but sure, he doesn't mean to hurt gay people when he calls another guy a "f-g;" that's just his New Joisey way of "busting balls" and insulting some guy he thinks is gay and really *hates*.
Artie leaving is going to be a breath of fresh air.
Too bad today was just a fake "cliff hanger."
hey i,ll come back can we talk money i,ll come back i,ll come back
Re: Sal & Richard – I love Richard!!!!
how can you support such a gay basher like howard stern, he is no King!!! you should be ashame of yourself Perez.
There's no way that Artie was acting. He's a terrible actor.
wow, not only is he a talentless hack, he really DOES look like an old woman now.
Re: Chuck – i hear from the gays your so small you pee on your own balls
Re: sharon –
With all due respect, URINE IDIOT!
Howard has always been at the forefront of gay rights issues — gays in the military, gay marriage (he cried when he saw Rosie and Kelly on TV at the steps of SF City Hall for their wedding), gay families (he was touched by Rosie's "All Aboard the Cruise" movie — and is the reason that many of us made a point to watch it). You obviously aren't aware of the fact that he made his mark with the Gay and Lesbian versions of Dial-a-date.
He's vehemently anti-gay bashing — and (before you bring them up) he's had the GHF-gs asswipes and Daniel Carver on to make fun of how ignorant they are, not to celebrate them.
For as long as I've been listening (since 91), Howard's been a friend and sensitive to gay issues.
Artie Lange is another story. A bigger (literally and figuratively) homophobe would be hard to find.
Re: Vivica –
You obviously NEVER listend to the show because Howard is NOTHING like that. You jackass.
Re: Shamela –
Oh my goodness, are you serious? His 10 absences were over the last 15 months?? Sickening. And yes, I also find it quite odd that 3 of those days were when George was on air. I don't buy his "Jersey-Italian/just bustin' balls" excuse either. He is complete gay basher and misogynist.
THAT CHAIR IS CURSED. I THINK IT ALL STARTED WHEN ROBIN WAS INVOLVED IN THAT FUCKING COVEN. WHO WILL BE THE NEXT SACRIFICIAL LAMB?
i can't believe all of this drama. i LOVE artie, but he has to get himself together and get off the drugs. he will probably be fired b/c you can't assault people at the work place. totally crazy!
I vote that they move the studio around…. put Artie behind the glass enclosure instead of Robin! That way he can continue to be funny but won't be able to harm anyone except himself. Poor Artie - he's fucking up the best job he - or any other comic - will ever have.
I love Artie. He needs rehab. Artie adds such dimension to the show. Howard rules, he is true talent. I hate dealing with the satellite radio as my connection is iffy but love the freedom.
Stern is a disgusting pig. What the hell is that on his head? Looks like a really bad wig. He is just SO ugly. Hate him.
I love all the SFN names on here.
WHY DID THEY PULL THE REPLAY?
Artie Lang was found dead in his apartment in NYC 30 minutes ago.
Re: Howard Stern – He doesn't live in NYC you fucking douche bag. Go back to not having Sirius and not being a fan, cocksucker.

Re: adios fat fuck –
like he has a few other times) — altho that's a good thing because even his snoring is better than when he talks.
Not just that but he slept thru Wednesday's show (probably nodded off
AND, they have 10 weeks vacation per year which, with the holidays that don't fall during vacation weeks, means Artie has to show up for roughly 4 shows/week for 40 weeks/year, which (at an average of 4.5 hours/show) means he couldn't even make it in — or stay awake for — an 18 hour work week. Artie's year of Stern shows equates to 18 weeks of the average hump's work load (before overtime).
I REALLY hope Artie is not on his way to Amsterdam right now. I wish I had been a part of that Death Pool. I smell windfall.
Re: Howard Stern – HA! So not a fan. GET THE FUCK BACK TO CLASS ASSHOLE. Or GET A JOB so you can get Sirius YOU CHEAP FUCK.
Re: Corinne (Girlfan) – Maybe because Artie started crying at the end and you know how they feel about people who talk & cry and it's documented. Straight up rookie move.
I hope Artie comes back, the show won't be the same without the baby gorilla. I hope his mother and sister are able to talk some sense into him and convince him to come back to the show. We love you Artie…come back!!!!
HOWARD IS LOOKING MORE PALE THAN EVER…HE LOOKS LIKE ONE OF THOSE NEW BABY BIRDS…CHEAP! CHEAP! BASTARD!…I QUIT LISTENING TO HIM 5 YEARS AGO BECAUSE I REFUSE TO PAY TO LISTEN TO HIS FRIGGN WHINING!
GO ARTIE AND DON'T LOOK BACK UNLESS HE HANDS OVER SOME CASH!
Howards a hack, its about time Artie walked off.
Re: BIGBROTHER – You want Howard to fork over $$ yet you are so fucking cheap you won't pay for Sirius?
this picture of howeird reminds me of why I prefer to listen to his show on the radio and not lookat him on the t.v.
Re: U LOVE ARTIE – I SOOOOO are with you ! ! ! !! I would not be able to listen with out Artie ! ! too bad I have a lifetime member.
Artie Lang = Living Lard
DAM STRAIGHT DNO!…I'M SMARTER THAN YOU TO PAY SOMEONE TO WHINE AND COMPLAIN TO ME FOR 4 HOURS…
So much DRAMA. artie is ready for it to be over. we will miss him, but maybe it is out with the old, in with the new
For those that keep saying who cares about Howard anymore, get a grip. Notice how many comments are on this story. Most Perez blogs have between 50 and 150 comments. This one has over 330. Obviously people still care about Howard. And for those that don't still listen to Howard, you are really missing out on some great radio. If he's not your cup of tea, that's fine too. This was 100% NOT staged today. That's why Howard has had a great radio show that I have been listening to in Philly for almost 20 years now. It is real. Today was 100% real. It was almost scary to listen to Artie go after his assitant live and have to be restrained. Artie needs help and I hope he gets it. He is probably back on drugs and needs help with drugs, depression, and his health/weight. Good luck Artie, we love you and hope you come back. Please don't go backwards and go back to Jackie….
bring him down to the north shore animal league-i will get a cage prepared for his hi c rehab and anger management classes
Re: wdrwoman –
Hey WDRWOMAN, your insights are so keen and insightful. I totally agree with you. I hope Artie doesn't go though. . . you single?
Re: BIGBROTHER – Why are you on this thread? Cheap Fuck.
Isn't it interesting how these things seem to always happen on the Thursday before they go on vacation? Artie & Howard's "bro fight", Artie throwing things at Sal, and now this . . . can you say cliffhanger to keep people tuning in?
Artie is out of control and deep down I think Howard knew what he was doing bringing him and Teddy into the studio. Makes for great radio and gets people talking about the show. I love the show, and even when it's bad there is humor, but today was a little sickening. Not fun, Not funny.
Re: Jessie – I think it's more like, notice what the common denominator is in ALL of these outbursts - ARTIE. I really think he's back on the "H".
I think Artie finally found his way out the door. Too bad Sirius didn't have the balls to put the replay on. WTF?! Terrible decision! and Sternfannetwork.com is down too. Unbelievable…Thank you Perez for this forum!
I love artie! Why the fuck are they replaying Mondays episode instead of the big fight?
All u losers without Sirius need to pony up!
Re: Artie Rawks! –
If this wasn't a bit, then Artie — with all of his talk of the drugs he'd do in Amsterdam, including old school COKE a cola and Amsterdam heroin — has found his out.
Thank God.
The show is SO much better when that fat fuck stays home.
Re: Jeanette – LOL exactly Waaaaah I've got the greatest job in the world waaaaaaah SUCK IT UP! We all have our cross to bear.
Somewhere, a very stoned Jackie Martling is cackling his hippie ass off. Its funny, I was thinking yesterday while listening to O&A for the first time in months in my non-satellite car, what it would be like if one of Stern's major names defected to another show like O&A. Artie may have been a fan at one point, but he's been treating it more and more like a job in recent times. At least Jackie didn't try to punch out his assistant on the air. What an out of control knob.
Hey VIVICA, shut your fucking cunt mouth and get back in the kitchen where you belong. Cunt face!!!
Artie Is the best who cares if he walked out F*CK Teddy and all of you talking sh*t bout Artie…..F Jackie
I love Artie, but sadly, I don't think he'll be back. I know his type…very "macho" to use an old term. If he comes back, he'll be so humiliated. He blew up at Teddy and in the end, he left crying and saying that he's "not a good person". I think Artie realized after idolizing Howard for all of these years, that Howard (who I also love) will do ANYTHING for ratings. Kinda like finding out that the Wizard of Oz is nothing more than a little man behind a curtain…only Howard is just a man who will do anything (even humiliate a friend) for ratings. Too bad. My heart aches for Artie. Hope he gets some help finally.
I think Howard should let him come back if he wants. He never techincally hit him so I'm sure it can all be worked out.
Fuck this! The gossip is AT
www artisannews com
Folks,
Did you check out the "who's the favorite" poll on HS.com?
It's Artie.
Howard can't handle that.
If Artie leaves, I cancel Sirius tomorrow and so do a lot of other people.
Howard's gonna get hurt.
I think they made too much of it…….. guys get into fights. If it was on BTLS it would have been no big deal.
Artie vs. Teddy in the Bubbagon.
I was listening when it happened..I think Artie should just take some time off get his life together. He is funny as hell and does contribute to the show
As all fans of the show know, Artie has many issues in his life and he is literally a ticking timebomb. He is a wonderful person and has a heart of gold. Depression & substance abuse is destroying his soul. All of the things that make him happy, he destroys. With all of that said, just like all of us, HE MUST BE RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS ACTIONS. He is completely out of control mentally and physically and I hope he gets extensive help A.S.A.P. I'm afraid soon we'll be hearing about his death if not. Howard is stuck between a rock and hard place right now. He cares so much for Artie, but at the same time , he has to do the right thing for the show, the staff, and guests.
Anyway, I AM A HUGE FAN OF THE SHOW and even though they sometimes "diss Jesus," I will be praying for them both, especially Artie. I would hate to see such a talented and caring person loss it all.
What?! What the hell? What happened?!
Re: Reality Check –
Excuse me, but URINE IDIOT!
It's the Howard Stern Show — and its saddest days have been those when we've instead been subjected to the Artie Lange Zoo, with special guests Howard Stern and Robin Quivers.
Artie leaving means that I — and many others who can't take what he spews — signing up for lifetime subscriptions!
I've been listening to the Howard Stern Show for about 7 or 8 years, but I've been listening lately just for Artie alone…I, as many other fans, love Artie and hate to see him go. Stay strong Artie - wishing you well!!!!!
Re: Jeannified –
Try listening to the SuperFan Round Up (it's on now on H101).
Howard pulled the replays on H100 but there's no gag order on Mutt and the gang (which includes Beet).
Re: ArtieSux –
If you're a real fan you'll know that Artie contributes to the show something that Howard USED TO contribute…energy and passion. Now we get to hear about Howard ignoring Beth because he has to play chess and he's concerned because Beth can't eat because she's so worried about a dog.
At $100,000,000 a year, he gets over $500,000 per show. That is until the subscriptions drop off after Artie leaves.
Sirius was just downgraded to a sell, future values set at $3.00, down from $3.80 and they will FORCE Howard to bring him back. Watch.
Go ahead, get a lifetime subscription (sucker) because if they can't get him back, the Stern show will be let go before his contract is over.
If Howard's not worried about Artie's departure from the show, why is there a gag order on H100 and Sternfannetwork is shut down?
Remember this next time Howard claims no connection to SFN.
Re: Shamela –
You are totally correct on this. People who think Howard is a gay bashing asswipe just don't know the show or Howard. His affection for George Takai is genuine. He's been at the forefront of supporting gay rights.
As for Artie, he's been on a self destructive road for quite some time now. It's so obvious that he's miserable and hates himself. He needs some serious down time and professional help. He needs to do this soon before he ends up dead.
Re: Reality Check –
Um.
What kind of energy is there in sleeping thru half the shows, when he bothers to show up at all?
Artie hasn't infused the show with anything except negativity, obligation, desperation, and self-destruction since Howard wouldn't let him take off 3 weeks in summer 2005 to work on that abomination he calls a movie (Beer League). Artie used that as an excuse to go into full blown heroin addiction and he's still nodding off on Subutex — self-medicating and self-destructing, but not in a funny or entertaining way.
You need a reality check — and maybe if Artie's sister wasn't blowing you, you could make up your mind with the head with ears.
So first off, Sirius is not a hassel…its great, and if Artie did leave the show– that sRe: cambel –
Sirius is so worth the "hassel". If you're a Stern fan at all you'd love the show uncensored.
Re: a.m. –
do you listen to the show at all? you should try listening to it before stating your thoughts
Re: Reality Check –
If you were a Sirius subscriber you could have listened to the Super Fan Round Table (on Sirius H101 now) and would have heard Mutt say SFN is down because of all the traffic [by non-listeners] trying to find out what happened today.
It's admitted that Howard yanked the replay, for today.
Artie and Teddy are on the same plane to Amsterdam, so there's hope Artie will OD this weekend.
Get over yourself. This is a bit and the replay was pulled to make it look REAL.
Listening to the "round table" on 101. Mutt says SFN blew up today ~ Steve Langford also called in and said Artie is on the plane to Amersterdam.
Artie needs to get some help asap. Today was just the tip of the iceberg. Artie needs therapy and some serious down time. If not, he'll be dead within six months. I'm listening to the Superfan Round Table and Ralph is right. Artie was working on the docks before and this was his dream job. Now he's gone and really screwed things up. Get some help Arite. We love you.
Howard provoked him, He couldn't help blowing up!
I love the show…I sure hope it's not a publicity stunt…why did they take the show of the air today??? Someone needs to help Artie with all of his dysfunction's now..he's eating himself to death.
I call bullshit. It's a cliffhanger. It's no accident this happened today. Stern doesn't do a show on Fridays and the crew is on vacation all next week. Just enough time to let media hounds publicize this to death. Who knows….maybe some people will actually get curious enough to *gasp* subscribe! Stern has pulled stunts like this before.
I download day before episodes off Limewire and listen to them on my ipod.
Howard Stern has got to be one of the ugliest men on the face of the earth- he is nothing but an ass-kissing no talent moron.
I think they need to get rid of him. I like him a lot, but, that was totally wrong how he reacted to Teddy.
Artie didn't walk off, he showed his ass, was told he can't do it and he quit. I'm more pissed that Stern didn't let the show replay today and they don't have it covered on their website tonight (like every show). Now they are taking another week off.
Re: Kyle – HUGE fight with Artie. He just about jumped over the console to fight Teddy but was held back by Benjy and whoever else was there. Howard asked him if he would prmose not to explode like that again but Artie said he could make no promises. Howard said that if that's the case, he cannot be there and Artie's response was "well, then I resign." A few minutes later, he told Howard that he had to go and told Howard he loved him & left. Howard 100 is not even replaying the show!!!!
So, dipshit, is it that no one cares about Artie or is it that so many people care that they shutdown the site trying to get info?
Answer: Neither, the same reason there's not a mention of the situation on HowardStern.com is the same reason SFN is getting blocked.
Keep drinking the koolade.
sadly I think Artie may have fallen off the drug wagon !!
I love Artie, but today's behavior was just not civilized at all. He's got so many issues and I hope he deals with them before he implodes (or should I say explodes, literally). I know people say they can't imagine the show without him (granted it is 1000% better with him than Jackie), but it would go on. Bring in Greg Fitzgerald - he is super hilarious, and would slide into that spot so easily. Dream gig.
But what was up with the replay today? Any where's the run-down on the website? I thought it was all about being honest and exposing it all?!?
On a Chicago gloomy day in Chicago my initial feeling after hearing the segment was; this was the day that the Stern show died. It was so sad and upsetting to have this feeling. Hearing Howard, Booey, and company shell shocked was a surreal feeling. However as shook up as Howard was I came to the realization that the show will live on for as long as he wants. The reason being this man is a pure genius. In his shaken state Howard conducted an awesome interview with Jason Reitman, this is why he is the King. Long Live Howard. We love you Artie, I feel he will be back he is currently on the same flight as Teddie to Amsterdam, can you feel the tension?????
That's a great picture of Howard
Anyhow, Artie has *SO* many issues…I don't know where to start, but he's completely self destructive. He barely had a career (sorry, I don't consider a stint on Mad TV and a dirty work a thriving career) before Howard. He's too dumb to realize that the show has MADE him and the fact that he gets big bucks for gigs now. Anybody see Beer League? I want those 2 hours of my life back, no other comedian could even have gotten that shit movie released.
He's so self destructive he's just willing to walk off the best thing that happened to him over a fight with his personal assistant?! Give me a break. He should have stayed on the herion, at least he'd be skinnier.
ARTIE I LOVE YOU!!! Please don't leave the show.
Re: Vivica –
Vivica, your response is coming from someone who so OBVIOUSLY does not listen to the Stern show. Stop getting your information from the 500 club and listen for yourself.
HEY EVERYBODY! THEY'RE REPLAYING THE SHOW, IT'S ON RIGHT NOW ON HOWARD 101!!!!!!!!!!!
Adding to the wave of reaction, WRONG.
Folks, Ferral is on H101, not a replay.
Re: shelly –
Hey Retahhhhhd!
That's Ferrell.
Re: shelly – It's Ferral now asshole. NICE TRY! REAL fans know the schedule.
Re: Astro – Re: cambel – well you are missing a lot of great shows.
WHY ISA MY ARTIE ACTINGA DIS WAYA!!!
Re: TonyD – he got into a fight with Teddy. Tried to kill him and then quit cause he was pissed off at Howard. Did anyone notice they are not replaying todays show?
Re: Shamela –
Right on, Shamela! Oh I know he fell asleep yesterday, I was listening (as I do every day). It's just ANOTHER reason why I hate listening to him moan and groan about how tough his schedule is when he sleeps through it anyway. Anywho, rumor is that he boarded his flight to Amsterdam. I imagine part of his manic behavior today was due to that monkey on his back clawin' for some good blow. Hope he can get his fix now….and additional std's.
I so love Artie, but lately he's been acting like a real douche! Howard did the right thing, not only that, he has no contol on what Artie does after the show. I hope Artie gets his shit together and gets laid, so that his bad temper goes away. Howard Rules, Artie Sucks!!!!
love you Perezito!
Re: sharon – gay basher? Howard doesnt gay bash you dumb ass.
Artie needs to get rid of Teddy….he's in waay over his head. Artie needs a more professional/skilled assistant. He needs to "man up" and fire him.
