I resent the fact that Howard never mentions the fact that they're going to be off the next day/week. I understand the reason behind it, Sirius wants us to keep tuning in, doesn't want us go 'elsewhere', and Howard simply doesn't want to hear the fans bitch about it.

Ya know what? Bullshit. Deliberately dooping the fans, the people who PAY the salaries of every Sirius employee, is NOT good business practice.

How about this? If you're not going to inform us when your show isn't going to air live...then don't plug your future show bits, don't plug your websites, don't plug your upcoming comedy shows...just don't plug ANYTHING anymore.

Another classic example of Stern using his fans when he wants to make money off of them, and treating them like peasants when he doesn't want to be bothered. Stern doesn't 'love' his fans like he triumphantly boasts. He's rude to his callers and shows fans no respect whatsoever. He takes more calls from Ralph on a daily basis then he does his fans....he's turned into such a transparent phony, it's irritating.

If the fans stop purchasing Sirius, the whole company, including Stern, flop.

It's weird...it's called The Howard Stern Show...but, I listen to the show for Artie, Sal, Richard, etc. I don't even like hearing Howard and Robin shoot off their mouths anymore. They're the worst part of the show.

prs_fiend: maybe this is for the best, when Artie, Sal, Benjy and the rest inevitably take over.

I thought I was weird for listening to people other than Howard. Other than Fred and Artie, the 'Fab' Five just annoy me.
