1037.0. "Stuttering John" by BUSY::FISED::SLABOUNTY (I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E) Mon Sep 26 1994 14:41

    
    	What?  No note on Stuttering John?  Well, there is now.
    
    	Does anyone else hear alot of Nirvana in this album, or is
    	it just me?
    
    	I thought this was going to be ... ummm, actually, I had no
    	idea what this was going to be before I bought it.  Maybe a
    	heavy southern-rock album.  But not quite.

    I think the Stuttering John album ROCKS.

    Yep

    I was listening to Stern one night (purely by accident of course) and
    he was ragging on John BIGTIME.
    
    Stern is such a loser.

    BTW, S.J. is still on the show.

  	No, I avoid the show. It has the same appeal to me as Liz Wildes
    	show. I prefer to listen to David Brudnoy.

    Stern rags on everyone and everything.
    
    Hey, sometimes I am offended by some of the stuff he does but I think
    he actually does some good:  he takes a lot of things that people
    should speak more freely about and by forcing them in people's face
    constantly he desensitives us to it.
    
    I think in an ideal world, a guy like Stern wouldn't be viewed as that
    big a deal.
    
    Stern is just as likely to make fun of jews (which he is) as blacks,
    gays, whatever.   He has black and gay people on his immediate staff.
    That tells you something right there.
1037.9BABAGI::COOKTaking a Quantum leap...Mon Sep 26 1994 16:423
    
    I've always disliked sarcasm. That's probably why I can't stand
    Stern. New Englanders seem to thrive on sarcasm.
1037.10POWDML::BUCKLEYwhy do we have to fall from grace?Mon Sep 26 1994 16:4819
    I think the thing about Stern is that 'people take life too seriously
    and for no good reason' ... seems like more than a few people have a
    problem with that approach.
    
    I agree with db, I think Howard rags on things just to get a rise out
    of people, or to prove some sort of warped point of view.  I think he's
    a pretty intelligent guy, as opposed to LIz Wylde, whos just an idiot
    imvho.  It doesn't take brains to rag on people (like when Liz kept
    making comments to Ronnie James Dio about him being short and how it
    sucks to be short), but it does take brains to twist a conversation to
    get people to continually talk about something they do NOT want to talk
    about (Howard's approach).
    
    But, you can like him or leave him for all I really care.
    
    RE: Pete
    
    Not a low blow...just called it how I saw it.  I mean, "loser" as based
    on what criteria?  Not slagging your opinion, but what's it based upon?
1037.11BABAGI::COOKTaking a Quantum leap...Mon Sep 26 1994 16:547
    
    Maybe my comment was harsh, I take it back. I will say this though;
    
    Sometimes he's funny but I just don't like his style at all. I'd
    much rather listen to talk radio like David Brudnoy than Stern.
    Hell, I'm at the point where I hardly ever listen to FM radio
    at all anymore.

    re: .10
    
    Hey Buck, my SiL Tina was there for that Dio interview. Tina brought
    in the Elf CD and from what she said, Dio was REALLY pissed about
    that!
    
    Liz is ridiculous. Tina says that a 10 year old has a better
    grasp on intelligence and reality than 99.9% of the people there.

You can hear that very plainly when listening to her show. I just love
the way she slags people *after* they hangup...whimp!

    cause of his messups :')

    Why was he pissed?  He doesn't want anyone to know about Elf?

    re. Cook:
    
    >    I've always disliked sarcasm.
    
    But you like Brudnoy?  I'm missing something, 'cause David's pretty
    darn good at this (one of the reasons I listen to him also, he's one
    of my heros).
    
    But I check out Stern every now and then.  When he's not on his "The
    Whole World's Against Me, I'm quitting this at the end of the year"
    kicks he's actually okay.
    
    Showing up on Letterman with the OJ shirt was primo.  After Dave
    claimed he didn't find anything funny about a double murder, HS 
    crowed "that's the difference between you and me Dave, I find humour
    in everything!"
    
    But I agree on Liz Wilde - she has got to be the boringest, stupidest,
    waste of human DNA sitting behind a microphone.  Utterly
    non-interesting.

    Anyone hear Liz Wilde has an Internet (aol, I believe) account now?
    
    Someone should send her mail and tell her how much she sucks!!

1037.20ba-ba-booeyMETALX::SWANSONRide The LightningTue Sep 27 1994 02:196
    Funny, I always thought of Liz Wilde as a female Howard Stern.  She
    picks on everything/everyone, gets off on her little sex fantasies on
    the air, and has stupid sidekicks who add absolutely nothing to the
    show.

A friend 'a mine saw Liz Wylde at one of those promotional give-away
PR things that famous radio personalities do.  He said she was quite
"Rubinesque" (ie. fat!).  Since she is a sex goddess, perhaps she could
use her divine powers to trade in each pound of lard for 1 IQ point.
I think her and John Osterlan of WAAF should get together.  They're both
annoying and stupid.
