I really want to know how much everyone besides Howard makes. I imagine Robin Fred, and Gary clear mid-low 6 figures, but I'm really interested to see how it breaks down for everyone else.
You're probably right. I really just want to know what the discrepancy is between the non-Howard big 4 and everyone else.
Guessing the main office folks like Jon Hein, Richard & Sal, JD, Will, Jason, Ronnie, Scott Salem, etc. make solid to good money. Guessing the folks like Mehmet, Rasan, rest of the office staff make shit.
Robin probably makes a couple million per year and has for awhile. Hein is already rich, so I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn’t get paid too much relative to others.
I read an interview where Robin said the first time she made $1 million was 1989. So, yeah, she's definitely making more than six figures.
Yeah, she has a boat with a captain in NYC. I'm guessing it's in the $4-5 million range. Thought I saw around $800k for Gary and he makes extra money outside the show from appearances and other stuff. Also think Fred is north of $1 million. The real question is how much Howard makes. My guess would be $40-50 million.
Has to be more. His last deal was reportedly for $90 million per. I think he pays everyone's salary out of that, but it can't be more than $10-15 million or so.
Forgot he got a raise in the last round. You're probably right. But I did read that it's more a budget than a salary. Guessing after all is said and done (including paying his agent) it is probably 30 or so gone from that 90.
Outside of Howard, Robin, Fred and Gary, who is next in line with salary? Could it be Benjy? I'm talking show contributors, not management like Marci Turk.
Yeah, then probably goes Benjy (Howard does have a soft spot for him), Sal/Richard, Hein, Mike Trainor, and JD.
Mike Trainor? Get out of here. Nothing that guy does is funny. The lump is an instant channel change for me.
Will and Jason are in there, probably behind Hein, but ahead of guys like Trainor, Memet, Steve Nowicki, etc.
One of those things where you'd like to know what bits he does write because on air he gets old fast.
Honestly, the only people I like these days are Howard, Gary, and Fred. Robin is worse than worthless when there's no one there to call her out for being a stupid bitch.
Has anyone listened to his voice lately? It became like ultra raspy. Really weird, is that a side effect of the drugs he's doing?
Artie has a modest resurgence with an HBO show where he discusses his drug problems in a funny way and this immediately happens after the episode airs. But Howard is the asshole for cutting him off.
All Artie does it bitch about how Howard has changed from the "old days," when that is precisely Artie's biggest problem - an inability to move forward.
Perfect example of how wackpackers are terrible and unfunny outside the context of the show. Making them entertaining is Howard's genius.
This is phenomenal. Sour Shoes calls in as Artie and Adam Corolla is fooled into interviewing him for like 15 minutes. You can tell sour has memorized all of Artie's tweets and interviews and is able to regurgitate his thoughts flawlessly at the appropriate times.
fucking WHAT? Sour Shoes is goddamned brilliant anywhere. there is nothing Howard has ever done directly with Sour to enhance him, he just opens the line and lets Sour go like any of these other hosts.
