Always thought Ralph was going to drop a tell all book one day. Howard will live to 100+ with his genetics and lifestyle.
There was a line from the roast of Ralph that has stayed in my memory and always killed me: if that wart on his left cheek pops out another quarter inch it means the turkey’s done.
There can be a gay supportive members of the community (Eg Anderson Cooper). There can be gay, unsupportive, non members of the community (eg Lindsay Graham).
Reddit was saying that HS implied to a caller that Ralph was at least bi. But again none of it matters
That really was the peak of the show for me. I loved Jackie/Billy West, but when Artie was rolling it was amazing. His ability to make something out of a topic or guest that didn’t seem interesting was unreal.
And a great story teller. Would make the listener feel like we were there at the story he was telling.
https://v.redd.it/bl2e7lg6cbtc1 this is a wild one, gonna cliff notes it for you guys: - if you're not aware, that's Elisa Jordana, the ex-longtime gf of Benjy and former member of Cobra Starship who featured on the show for awhile and made him dress in dumb shit like when he wore all the dark makeup and a wig ( ) and do stupid songs ( ). they broke up eventually and she was "engaged" to Andy Dick for awhile and just hangs around now trying to stay relevant doing influencer and apparently livestreamer stuff. she's a loon and this has been known for awhile but nothing like what we see in the video, she was just always super desperate for fame. - the guy is the son of a ME oil billionaire. he's also into findom (financial domination, essentially dudes giving women money when the women say). he finds Elisa and starts donating tens of thousands of dollars at a time until he's donated several million. Elisa wisely invites him down to Florida, I assume to basically try and hook him. - the guy has also been doing this to other women, including the one on this phone call you hear in the video. Elisa gets insanely jealous and doxxes the woman on her Discord - the clip picks up around here. you will see her viciously abuse him, striking him many times to the point where he flinches when she raises her fist. if you listen well you'll also hear her threaten to kill him. - eventually, the guy stands up for himself and eventually removes her from the car in the middle of the road. - as of a few hours ago, Elisa was arrested for battery. https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https://i.redd.it/knomslwe5dtc1.jpg
That chick was so annoying when that schtick was going on. I haven't listened in years, is Benjy still around?
yea but he finally showed up late one too many times and got permanently removed from the set, now he writes in the back-office. the fuck?
JD is JD, altho now divorced. Richard and Sal come on and do gay stunts 2-3 times a year (really, really gay stunts) and otherwise nothing as there's almost no prank calls anymore. Richard has two kids now and is in his 50s, winning combo there. Brent is long gone. he spiraled heavy and got shuffled off. Katelyn is the breadwinner now as she makes cuckporn fucking black dudes while Brent films (yes, really). Brent's saga is really sad. the show is almost entirely planned and scripted now. Howard hasn't been back to the studio since covid and will likely never return. I think other staff are back now, idk about the other main players. it's exceptionally bad radio now. I don't listen but I read enough on the subreddit to know what's what.
idk how many of you are on the subreddit. it's kind of shit (lot of chuds, sadly) but it's the best place for news on the show and past staff members. there's a guy there now named cormano who might actually be Steve Langford in disguise. here's his latest thread on deep show history, this one about the legendary Jesus Twins. check his other posts if you have time, he's got some all-timers about Double A (pedo), Richie Wilson (the source of the Pelican Brief), and others. and here's his threads https://old.reddit.com/user/cormano/submitted/
Howard interviews the fucking President and the only marketing for it takes place 15 minutes before it happens?
I imagine in-person was a requirement. Biden wasn't about to be asked questions by the Pelican over a fucking TV.
he's not inherently wrong but I'd be insulted if I was Howard. his show is a pale shade of its former self but I'd defy anyone doing a podcast to keep it running for over forty years at the level they're at in the early years. hell, keep it going for 25 years, which is roughly where the show was when Artie quit. Howard's old and the fight has left him like it does everyone.
I mean I guess he’s right about the current Howard but if he’s talking about Howard overall he’s as wrong as he is about Israel
Howard is whatever now, but this is impressive coming from the guy who has made nothing but recycled shit since 1998.
Howard's last 10-15 years have been so interesting. -still being the overwhelmingly top show on his platform despite dramatically losing his fastball -maintaining/adopting mainstream societal views -despite point 1, not adapting whatsoever to the changing landscape of how his form of content is consumed Regarding the first and last points, he's had no incentive to adapt to a podcast format so long as Sirius continues to throw $750 million his way. He is single handedly keeping that company afloat.
Show is generally not funny. But, Seinfeld has a lot of nerve after putting out that poptart movie. Worst thing I've ever watched.
Seinfelds stand up has always been severely overrated. Only good thing he’s ever done is his show and I don’t know how much credit he personally deserves for that.
