Mr. Skin eventually got around to his top ten after Fred guessed what number one was. He guessed that Phoebe Cates getting topless in ''Fast Times at Ridgemont High'' was number one. Mr. Skin then went on to give most of his top 10 favorites. Howard cut him short so he had to skip a few. Some of the actresses and movies he mentioned were:
Howard took a few phone calls from people who brought up even more movies for Mr. Skin to comment on. He said that he only picked one movie per celebrity for the list so there were some people who brought up women who were on the list but not for the movies that they suggested.
Howard told a story about seeing a hot Asian chick on the street the other day. As she walked by she said ''Hi'' to him. He didn't realize it until she walked by that it was Lisa Ling from ''The View.'' He said she was really hot and went on to talk about how he'd bang her if he had the chance.
Howard wrapped up the interview with Mr. Skin shortly after that and took a break.
Here's how the game goes. Fred is sent into Robin's sound-proof booth where they have music playing to keep him distracted. The player then has 60 seconds to answer 7 questions. If he gets them all they stop the clock. Fred then comes in and answers as many as he can. If there is a tie they go by whoever answered quickest. If the player wins he gets $10,000 courtesy of CBS.Sportsline.com. Here are the questions and answers:
Through all of this they stuck together. That's what led to the book thing. Howard let them talk about all of that but wanted people to know that there are a lot of relationships like this out there. There are men who are ashamed to admit that they're gay and they go out and marry straight women and will eventually let them down.
Howard introduced each of the Vivid Video porn stars which included Jenna Jameson, Dasha, Taylor Hayes, Savanna Samson and Kira Kener.
Howard asked the girls if they all get along. Jenna said that they don't because their personalities clash. Gary said that Kira is one who seems very unhappy. Jenna said that she really is unhappy. Howard said he did some research on her and found out her father was very ''Military'' and a hard ass around the house. She spent a few minutes talking about that and how her parents don't even know she's in porno. She said they don't watch regular TV and will probably never find out about it.
Jenna said that she likes Kira but she can be really nice or really nasty at different times. Howard tried to find out what kind of back stabbing Jenna may have done to piss Kira off. She said some people told her about how Jenna bought her web site domain name. It turns out Kira's former boyfriend used to work for Jenna and he bought the web site name and sold it to Jenna's boyfriend or something like that. Jenna had nothing to do with it but she's taking the blame for some reason. It wasn't even the dot com, it was the dot net. Whatever... Kira said part of the issue was with Jenna and some of it was with Vivid who set up the site. Gary came in and told Howard some more about Kira. She apparently dated this guy who they were calling ''Hillbilly'' who was allegedly abusive to her because she once dated Sinbad the black comedian. Hillbilly apparently tried to push her out of a moving car after hearing that. She didn't break up with him after that either. She said it was all mind control. Gary told Howard there was even more to her story. Howard cut off the stories and got back to the introductions and the game.
Howard spoke to Savanna Samson who was wearing a mini skirt and a tank top. She has only done 2 pornos with Vivid so far. Gary also told Howard that her parents don't know that she's in porn. Her sister has apparently disowned her because she's doing porn now. Dasha said her mother just found out that she's doing porn. Gary had a couple of quick stories about her that he went through.
Howard moved on to Taylor Hayes. Gary gave Howard a couple of quick facts about her too. He said she loves anal and she's mad at the band Creed because they were rude to her at a club she appeared at. Jenna said she really likes Taylor too.
Howard asked each of the girls a bunch of questions and said they'd go around 3 times and kick out the ''Weakest Dink'' each time around. He quickly went through easy questions like:
Howard came back from a break and Gary told him that Taylor was really upset that they brought up some of the things they brought up. She actually left crying. She got upset that Artie kept bringing up the anal thing and apparently she's tried to reinvent herself since the last time she was on the show 4 years ago. Howard also had to plug some of the web sites he didn't mention including Vivid.com, ClubJenna.com and SavannaSamson.com
A short time after that a listener called in and told Howard about KC's America Online profile. In the profile KC spells the word judging ''judgeing'' and the word underwear ''underwhere.'' Howard asked KC to spell the words there and he still couldn't get them right. He spelled judging the same and underwear became ''underware.'' KC said ''I'm not gonna lie to you, I'm not a good speller.'' Howard laughed and goofed on him for a little while longer about him being so dopey. Howard said that KC is just a ''himbo'' and his good looks fooled him into hiring him.
Howard said that Gary's breath has been really bad lately and he hasn't said anything to him. Gary said he wishes he would say something and not say it on the air. Howard doesn't seem to think that's a nice thing to do though. Howard said even when Gary eats mints the stink is still there.
Howard said he only wears a little cologne when he goes out with his girlfriend. He said the only way she smells it is if she gets up close to him. He took a whiff of Artie's cologne and said he was wearing too much. They got back to Benjy and tried to figure out where the smell was coming from. They thought it might be his clothing but they weren't really sure. Howard told Benjy that Fred isn't the type of guy who makes that kind of stuff up. He asked Artie to cool it with the cologne and told Benjy to do something with his clothes. He also told Gary to do something with his breath.
Gary said that Benjy has something going on with his skin too. He's got dry patches on his face so they wondered if that had something to do with his stink. Poor Benjy was getting picked on big time and Howard thinks that he's going to crack one day. Howard said everyone there has their problems including KC who wets his bed once in a while. (Snipped)
Charles used to beat his wife but he's reformed himself. He told Howard that he used to beat his wife for things like not having meals ready on time and cleaning the house. He told Howard that it seemed to work for him. He said that the first time he beat a woman it was strange but it always ends up happening again.
While this guy was talking about beating women KC was just laughing hysterically. Charles told Howard that now that he's much more stable, he doesn't get angry about meals not being ready on time. He said it is possible to change.
Howard took some phone calls for the guy and spent a few more minutes talking to him. Charles says he stopped beating about 25 years ago. His first wife is gone now but he's married again and he's never beaten this woman. High Pitch Erik called in and said this guy should be in jail because beating women is wrong. Howard told Erik that the guy knows that and he hasn't beaten anyone in 25 years. Howard wrapped up the call after a short time and gave the guy a couple of plugs for his book.
Howard and the crew returned from their long vacation this morning. Robin didn't have any lighting in her studio because they ripped out all of the lighting from the TV show that was put on hold. Howard said the studio is empty of cameras as well so it looks cavernous in there. He said he was trying to get his E! crew back in there to start taping for his new In Demand show but Infinity didn't want that to happen so they had to put it on hold. He said that Infinity didn't want to put people back to work so they're going to have to wait until January for that to happen.
Howard said that they're saying that there could be up to 100,000 people dead down in the New Orleans area because of this hurricane. They're not sure because they haven't been able to go into all of the homes down there to find out. No one is really sure what to do down there either because no one has ever had to deal with something like this. Robin said they're saying that the water down there is like a toxic soup of all kinds of stuff. Howard said that he was watching the Kanye West thing and thought they cut off the best part of the whole thing and then edited it for the West Coast.
Howard mentioned that 50 Cent would be coming in later in the morning and he's apparently pissed that P. Diddy changed his name to Diddy because he thinks he's trying to sound like ''Fiddy (Cent).'' They'll be talking to him about that when he comes in.
Howard said Fred gave him an email that someone sent him that warned of what might happen if the levees down in New Orleans ever broke. The news story was from back in 2002 so they knew what might happen ahead of time.
Howard took a call from The Sim who said that they missed Howard while he was away and how he was listening to the news about the hurricane on his SIRIUS radio all week long. Howard talked about how he heard that Oprah Winfrey was down in New Orleans trying to save a baby and Robin told him that Chris Rock was down there as well touring the area. Howard interrupted that stuff to talk about how Dr. Phil's son is apparently supposed to be marrying one of the Dahm Triplets who appeared in Playboy Magazine. Gary came in to talk about how boring those girls were when they appeared on the show a while back. The Sim asked Howard how they could help out with the hurricane. Howard said that they have some links up on his web site but they have to be careful about where they link to because there are some people out there who may not be sending the money where it should go. Artie said that he gave to the Red Cross back on 9/11 and the fund that Mayor Giuliani had set up back then. Howard was going to read an article he read about Pat Robertson and how he's like number 2 on a government list of charities to give to for relief. Fred said that it may have been FEMA who was suggesting that. Howard found the article and read that it was FEMA that was referring Pat Robertson's charity ''Operation Blessing.'' They've apparently removed that one now but it was on there before.
Howard took another phone call from a guy who brought up how strange it was that the military wasn't able to get food and water to the people down in New Orleans while the TV reporters were there for 3 days before that. Howard talked about how great New Orleans was when he went down to visit a couple of times. The caller wondered if they will still be able to have Mardi Gras next year. Robin said she heard that the French Quarter wasn't that damaged so it could happen.
Howard was over at Scores West Side last week with Ronnie the Limo Driver. He talked about how great that place was and how hot the chicks were. He had some shots of Vodka that night and probably had 10 of them. Beth was out working so it was his night out with the boys. He said he got a double lap dance and one of the girls was Danielle who was in the studio 2 weeks ago screaming about her Vodka drinking. He said she's great and if anything ever happens with his relationship with Beth, he's going to go out with her. Fred played the ''There's Some Whores in this House'' song that they started playing a couple of weeks ago. Howard said you have to be really drunk when that song is playing to appreciate it. Ronnie came in and talked about Wayne Segal and how he was selling cars while he was over there at Scores. Ronnie had to drive Howard home from Scores because he was so drunk. Ronnie told Howard that when they left, they got in the car and drove past a bunch of clubs and people in the street. Howard put the windows down and saw tons of hot chicks so he talked to some of them. Howard was so drunk that he didn't remember doing that. He's taken over where Artie left off. Howard thought it was a great night. Ronnie said that they're having a grand opening for the new Scores Las Vegas so they want Howard to show up to that. Howard said he may have to go to that later this month.
Richard Christy came in and said that he brought a friend from Arkansas with him to Scores on Friday night and met up with Ronnie. He said his friend's head was about to explode when he went there and saw what was going on. He said there's nothing like that in Arkansas. Richard said that he saw Ronnie in there with a bunch of the girls banging on a table and singing ''There's Some Whores in this House'' song together. Howard had to wrap up and take a commercial break after that.
Howard asked Governor Schwarzenegger why the prices of gas go up so fast when something like this happens. Arnold said that gas is up to about ten dollars out there in California and they're trying to find alternative fuels. Howard said it would be great if they could create something that ran on human waste. Arnold said that would be great if you could go to the bathroom into a cup in the morning and pour it in your fuel tank. Arnold wrapped up a short time later but Howard thought there was supposed to be more to what he was supposed to say (his script). Howard said maybe Gary didn't go over it with him and maybe he didn't get the memo. Howard said the memo was much funnier. Benjy had written some stuff for him that didn't make it into the conversation. Howard was so angry that he said he was going to take a break and go yell at some people.
Howard as freezing in the studio this morning and he heard that they had the thermostat as high as it would go. He said he can't wait to leave that place because he remembers the days when Tom Chiusano asked him about what temperature he wanted it in the studio like they could only have one temperature. Scott the Engineer came in and told Howard about the way they have the thermostat set up so Howard asked him if they could shut the whole thing off. Scott said they could do that but the air would get very stagnant in there. Howard joked around with Robin about the ''favorite temperature'' thing that they had with Tom.
Howard had Ronnie the Limo Driver come in to talk about 50 Cent's people who are going to be coming up today. Ronnie said that they don't usually search guests but 50's people have been packing heat lately so he wondered if they should be patting them down. Robin said they should have a metal detector for guests but Ronnie said that even that doesn't always work. Ronnie said that they've had guests who have come in and dropped off guns and they put them in a closet. Howard told Ronnie to ask them to drop off their guns if they had any, and just put them in that closet. Ronnie also talked about how he filled up with gas for $3.50 this morning and saw on the news that there was a place down in Maryland asking over $7.00 for gas. Gary asked Ronnie about using super unleaded because that's what he's been using in his BMW for a couple of years. Ronnie said that it depends on what the owner's manual says and if he switches, he may get a ping from the engine. Howard wondered why they can't take our human doodies and turn them into a fuel for vehicles. The guys talked about the price gouging that's going on right now with gas and how much of a scam it is.
Robin said she would love to hear Ronnie asking 50 Cent's posse for their guns later on. Howard said he has no problem doing that. Ronnie said he once asked some guys who came in to drop their guns off or leave the station and four guys ended up walking out. That was back when there was an East/West Coast battle going on between rappers.
Howard took a call from a guy who said that the guy in that message was standing up for him on the air but Howard said that they weren't standing up for him, they just yanked his show off the air and that was a tacky thing to do. Another caller said that she misses them out there in Columbus. Howard said that the show the FCC is investigating is one where they did ''dildo golf.'' He was also saying that these stations that cave in like this are ''digging their own grave'' and it's all going to come back and bite them in the ass. He said that the FCC is looking at ways to regulate cable, something you pay for, and none of these companies are fighting back. He read an article about the possible regulation of satellite and cable shows and how they're thinking of fining Jon Stewart for something he did on ''The Daily Show.''
Howard talked about how sad it was to see a little kid having to leave his dog behind because they couldn't take it on the rescue boat. He and Beth spent a couple of minutes going over that and Beth said she just shot a calendar for the North Shore Animal League and all proceeds from the sales will go to help the victims of the hurricane. Beth said that if you want to find out more you can visit NSALAmerica.org or call 877-4SAVEPET. They're looking for some people to adopt or hold onto the pets until they can find the owners down there. Beth thanked everyone who has helped out so far.
Howard said that he and Beth read an article about Kelly Ripa's husband Mark Consuelos and memorized it so they can recite it together. Beth was kind of embarrassed by that but she and Howard did their thing where Howard was the interviewer and Beth was Mark answering this or that questions. They both had it memorized and recited what they had remembered. Howard thought it was so interesting that they just had to remember it. That's how he spent his vacation. Beth got off the phone a short time later as Howard was blowing kisses to her over the phone.
Howard had some audio of Wolf Blitzer commenting on the disaster and saying ''so poor and so black.'' Artie thought that was pretty funny and goofed on the guy and exaggerated what he was saying. Howard had the Celine Dion audio clip after that. She was on Larry King's show ranting about the whole thing. Shuli called in and said when he saw that interview he couldn't wait for Howard to play it on the show. He described what she was talking about and how she was bragging about how she donated a million dollars to help out the victims. Howard played the clip and Celine was talking about how she can barely drink a coffee or sing at her shows at Caesar's Palace every night. She mentioned giving ''a million dollar'' yet it was still tough to watch and deal with. She was talking about how the looting going on down there was no big deal because they were't going to get very far with it and that maybe they hadn't ever touched anything like that before in their lives. She suggested that maybe they should be allowed to touch it for just this one time. She was going on and on about what her thoughts were on the whole thing and how people should be handling it. Robin and Howard said that they're still not sure how many people are dead down there and they're going to have to go house to house to find out just how many are. There were tens of thousands of people who weren't evacuated and they're unaccounted for right now. They don't know what percentage of those people are dead.
Debbie Schlussel called in and talked about how Oprah was replaying shows last week during the hurricane coverage but this week she's doing live shows from New Orleans. Debbie thinks that if she had done those shows last week, she would have been a hero. This week doesn't work but Howard thinks she's nuts. Gary asked Debbie what she has done for this whole thing. She claims that she donated some money but Gary didn't believe her. She claims that she really did donate but Oprah should have been doing a fund raiser last week when it would have counted. Howard told Debbie that Oprah is just one man, he can't do all that much to help like Debbie seems to think she can. He told her that maybe the cast from Two and a Half Men should be doing a fund raiser, they're on TV too. Howard was trying to point out that Oprah is just a TV show host and it's not her job to raise money for something like that. Howard said that the most popular show on TV right now is CSI so maybe they should have CSI New Orleans going down there to raise some money. Debbie told Howard that FOX News was down there last week showing what was going on and Oprah shouldn't be down there this week. She thinks that it's kind of tacky and she shouldn't be down there in this ''watery grave'' that used to be New Orleans.
Gary said that Richard Simmons grew up down there and he's out talking about how his family managed to escape from the flooding. Robin said she saw some of his coverage where he was putting on his emotional voice and talking about the rescue efforts down there. Artie said that they're talking to anyone who has had a brush with New Orleans, even if they didn't live there. Howard wondered why they haven't talked to him yet because he's been down there.
Howard also saw that Sixx was on the Hulk Hogan reality TV show. Sixx said that he was trying to get a deal for Hulk's daughter and he has no credentials. He was telling Gary that he doesn't even have any experience in that kind of thing. He does have some hook-ups with some people at Sony records so he does have some connections. Howard thought it was pretty funny that it was Sixx who was trying to manage Hulk's daughter. Sixx got in a plug for his web site MTV6000.com. Howard let him go after that and then played an audio clip that was supposed to have been from 2002 where he talked about the levees down in New Orleans and how they could break and flood the city. It was just a fake bit they were doing but they played it up as if it were real. After that Howard said that they called Daniel Carver about what went on with the hurricane and had Gary the Retard talk to him about what went on there. Daniel thinks that it was a good thing and it was a way to ''clean it up.'' Gary the Retard will go along with any of what Daniel says so he was agreeing with some of his racist thoughts. Nicole Bass was also on the phone so she was the voice of reason between the three of them. Howard had to take a break after that.
Howard read that 50 Cent is banging so many chicks that it's been in the news. He apparently has a box of condoms for all of the white, blonde chicks that want to bang him after his shows. 50 said that there are a lot of women around him and he likes woman so that's what goes on. Howard asked him how many women he's been with after a concert. He said there was one time he was with 4 women at one time but that was back when he first started out. He said he was surprised when that happened because he couldn't believe they all wanted him. Howard and Robin were asking him about the details of what went on. 50 said he had all four women at one time and it was easier that way. 50 Cent said that you can get people to do all kinds of things when something like that goes down. He said that he joins in once things get going. He said now he's calmed down and doesn't do that kind of thing anymore. He said he doesn't have to do anything special to find chicks and keep dating them. Howard talked about how hot chicks dress at concerts like that and how they're looking to get in there with the star of the show. Robin told him he has to be careful doing stuff like that because the girls could be underage or something like that. Howard said that they probably have people checking IDs before he sleeps with them.
Howard asked 50 about Eminem who has been in rehab for sleeping pills. He seems to think that's kind of lame but 50 said that he was doing shows and then flying home every night so he could be there when his daughter wakes up in the morning. Howard also asked 50 about the farm he bought up in Connecticut which was owned by Mike Tyson at one time. 50 said he doesn't have much time to spend up there but he has held a bar-b-que up there. Howard was invited to that but he couldn't make it.
Howard brought up 50's new book ''From Pieces to Weight : Once Upon a Time in Southside Queens'' which is out now and he's got a movie coming out soon too. 50 said he did great in the movie. That led to Howard suggesting that 50 get some famous white women so he can piss off some people. Howard said he likes when 50 gets out there and pisses off people and talks about them on the air or on the MTV awards. People like Fat Joe and others. 50 said that he has a lot of fans around the world and a lot of people are jealous of that. The book he wrote is about his life and what he's gone through. He said they talk about his days selling crack and stuff like that. Howard heard that he's had a lot of bad things happen to him in his life. His aunt poisoned his dog at one point. She put some roach spray on the floor and the dog licked it up and died. His mother was only 15 when she gave birth to him so he ended up being raised by his grand parents. Howard asked him about the reasons for being pissed at P. Diddy for changing his name to Diddy. 50 said he didn't say that, someone made that up.
King of All Blacks called in and asked when another album was coming out. 50 said it would be out soon and there's a new DVD out today as well. King was also asking some questions about Diddy and what 50 thought about the way he handled the MTV awards. King said he thought it was horrible and Diddy was acting like he's still famous, like it was 1998 or something. King said you know it's over when you see Sean Jean in Target stores. 50 Cent said he has a clothing line out now too though. Howard asked 50 about what kind of money he can make selling crack. 50 said he could make some pretty good money back then and easily make $100,000 a year. 50 claims that he never used the drugs and still doesn't. King wondered how 50 stays in shape the way he does. 50 said that he does push-ups and sit-ups. Richard Christy came in and said that he does look awesome on the cover of his new album and wondered how he gets that definition since he's never been able to do that. 50 said that he doesn't drink (alcohol) either so King was surprised to hear that. Howard gave 50 a plug for his book and for his album ''The Massacre'' which is a re-release. Howard took a call from a guy who asked 50 if he had anything to do with the Suge Knight shooting the night before the MTV awards. 50 said he wasn't even in the same area. Howard heard that Suge may have shot himself in the leg. 50 has been shot so he knows about what that's like. He talks about that in his book too. He said there is only 1 picture from that shooting in the book. Howard said it sounds like he's doing pretty good now though and he's getting laid. He asked 50 who his friends are and who he's hanging out with. 50 said he's been hanging out with Jamie Foxx and Eminem. Howard told 50 to tell Jamie to give up on the rap career because it's just not going to happen.
Howard wrapped up with him a short time later and asked him to give his best to Eminem who is already over at SIRIUS and has his own channel there. 50 said he does Eminem's show over there and saw Howard's new studio. Howard said he's afraid to go down to the studio because they have all of the windows covered up with curtains. Howard said he peeked in under the curtains and five guys came out ready to kick his ass. Artie asked him when the G-Unit hour airs. 50 said it's on Saturday so he said he might have to tune in to hear it. Howard asked 50 what he thinks he's worth these days. 50 was saying that he's probably worth over $100 million at this point. He said he keeps renegotiating his deals so he's always raising that up. He said his attorney's are great and they're known as the Jew-Unit. Howard asked 50 who the best piece of ass he ever had was. He couldn't remember her name but she was a hispanic chick. He said it may just be his memory and it may not have been as great as he remembers it. That led to Howard talking about the women he's been with and how he thinks about them when he's by himself pleasuring himself. The delay hits were multiple at this point. Howard wrapped up a short time later and gave 50 some plugs for his book and CD. He also gave him a plug for Tony Yayo's CD ''Thoughts of a Predicate Felon'' since he's on 50's record label. They went to break a short time after that.
Artie spent a few minutes talking about going up to Cape Cod over the vacation last week and he really liked it. The beaches weren't as crazy out there as they are in Jersey. Howard talked about how he made a deal with Beth to come on the air this morning. He said he told her to go into the kitchen and get naked, with just shoes on, and wait for him on the counter. He said she agreed to do it for the animals. He said he told her that he was going to look at her ass since she's kind of self conscious about it. He talked about how horrible his ass is and how great he thinks hers is. He asked Artie more about the Cape Cod visit. Artie said he liked the Cape better than Martha's Vineyard since they're more like his type of people on the Cape. He said he and Dana had a great time up there.
Howard had Gary get back to the story about Amsterdam. He told Howard about getting on a boat once they got there and how they started drinking right away. Then they went to a coffee bar and got a menu for the weed they had available. There was one called ''Gotta Sit Down'' because it's so strong. Gary ordered the mildest stuff they could get since they're not that used to it. Gary said they told him to take two hits and wait five minutes before doing more. If his heart starts pounding, they offered to give him a sugar cube. Horse jokes even in Amsterdam. Gary said that the weed was great and it put him in a really happy mood. His wife took her one hit and she started to feel that it was a little stuffy in there. Sal went to get her a sugar cube and she started to talk nonsensical so he asked her how she was. Her head started shaking and it was almost like a seizure. She then passed out and Gary was afraid that he had killed her. Gary knew what was going on, he wasn't out of his mind by that much. Gary said that this guy from Heineken helped pick her up and started to drag her out. Sal then saw the guys dragging her out. Gary said they put her in a chair outside and she snapped out of it. She woke up and didn't realize what happened. Gary said this probably happens so much that they thought they were nuts when they asked them to call an ambulance. Gary was told to have her sit in her chair ahead of time instead of dragging her outside. That way they could just pick up her chair and carry her out. Sal said he thought she was dead when he saw her being dragged out. Gary brought the joint to the hotel so he could smoke some more later on but had to leave it behind when they went to Paris.
Dominic Barbara called in and said that the reason Mary probably passed out was because she was hypoglycemic. It apparently happens all the time. He said it could have been a lot worse than it was though. Gary said he knows a guy whose wife had the same problem. Another phone caller said that he has family over in Holland and that kind of thing happens all the time over there. The caller also said that it was too bad Sal couldn't get away from his wife to get to the whores. Sal said that the chicks were so hot out there... He said that there are Russian models who fly in to make a ton of money out there. Gary said there were times that there were 7's and 8's out there and then there are 9's and 9.5's out there at certain times. There were also some 10s according to him. Sal said that some of the girls looked like they were about 15 years old. Howard wondered if there were any that looked like Jenna Jameson or Pam Anderson. Gary said there were some Jenna looking girls but no Pams. Sal was talking about the huge selection there was out there. He was walking past windows and waving and licking his lips while his wife was walking behind him so she couldn't see. Gary said it's amazing that they haven't done a show from over there yet.
Gary told another story about going to Paris and how Sal was talking to some girls from London and one of the girls had really huge boobs. Sal asked Gary to take a picture of him next to the girls but to just zoom in on her big boobs. Sal said that he didn't want his wife to get suspicious so he pretended that he was just taking a picture. Gary also told Howard that Sal's wife is so hot and he doesn't believe that she hears about what Sal really does since she doesn't listen to the show. Bong Hit Eric called in and talked about how great the weed is over in Amsterdam and how he gets the highest grade he can when he goes over there. Gary said that they were at a place when he asked a question where it cracked up everyone he was talking to and he wasn't joking around. He said that's the effect that the weed had on the people who don't smoke it very often.
Sal was also talking about his wife and how he can't last very long when he's with her. He said that she makes him wash his hands and actually has their son monitor him when he does stuff like that. Gary said it seemed like she liked him when they were hanging out but there are things that happen that make it seem like she really doesn't. Howard had to wrap up that conversation so they could take another break before Robin's news.

Howard started off the show talking about the Ambien he took yesterday that gave him a headache when he woke up. Artie said he has the same problem. Gary said the same thing and that he has to take Advil the next morning to get rid of the headache. They talked about the amount of time they give you to sleep and Artie was saying that he's lost his memory a couple of times after taking the stuff. Gary said he took it on his flight out to Amsterdam last week and he slept for 5 and a half hours while everyone else was wide awake. Howard said he needed it really bad last night because he couldn't get to sleep no matter what. He was overwhelmed with everything that was going on with meetings and stuff yesterday. He said there's a lot going on with the new radio show, family and other stuff as well. He was all charged up while Beth was sound asleep next to him. He couldn't even have sex because she had already gone to sleep. He said she gave his package a little squeeze before she went to sleep so that didn't help things out either. He asked to have sex with her but she just wanted to go to sleep. Gary thinks that they should have an ''Open/Closed'' sign on them so you know when you can do it or not.
The guys were talking about Katie Couric going down there and standing in the nasty, feces filled water. Artie brought up Geraldo Rivera and how he was acting like a super hero going down there and rescuing people. He said they would find out where someone was and they'd send Geraldo out to get them and they did that about 11 times while he was watching. Artie said Geraldo was also talking about the guys he was over in Iraq with when he ran into them down in New Orleans. Howard said Richard Simmons was on TV talking about how worried he was about his parents down in New Orleans even though they're dead. He said Richard made it all about himself during the interview. Richard was talking about being worried about his brother but the guy was air lifted out of there two days before. Howard played some audio of that interview where Richard sounded very upset and was shaking during the interview. He was talking about going down there to find his brother and his wife and that he was going to go down there with a camera crew to find them. Howard said if he had family down there, he would have gotten down there already and wouldn't bring a camera crew with him. He commented on the clothing that Richard was wearing and how he still hasn't changed from wearing the short shorts and sequined shirts. He also said he looked a little heavy and like he's aged quite a bit lately. The hot pants may have worked 10 years ago but they don't anymore according to Howard. He said that people don't want a headache from Richard and maybe he should stay away from that area while there are dead bodies floating around.
Artie talked about how there are a lot of overweight people down there in New Orleans. They must be having a tough time just getting around being so overweight. Howard was talking about odd it is that you don't see Vice President Cheney these days and how he thinks that the guy must be really sick if he's not appearing anywhere. He said he's never seen a Vice President that doesn't make himself seen anywhere. He brought up an odd comment that Barbara Bush had made about the people down there and how strange that was. She said something about the people staying in the Astrodome and how ''they're underprivileged anyway so this is working for them.''
Howard took a call from a guy who said that he's working down there helping people and they need some relief so maybe Beth O could come down and give them oral. Howard didn't seem too thrilled with that idea. Robin brought up the coverage that Katie Couric was doing where she was standing in the feces filled water. She wasn't helping anyone, she was just standing in the nasty water. Artie mentioned Debbie Schlussel's phone call to them yesterday where she was talking about how Oprah Winfrey shouldn't be allowed to be down there doing what she's doing. Howard said he was watching Pat O'Brien doing a story about Paris Hilton's Vogue cover and chuckling about how she was barely wearing any clothes. Howard said all he could think was that it was Pat's type of thing. They played some of his voice mail message and then moved on to other stuff.
Howard was talking about giving money to the relief efforts for the hurricane. Fred has already given and Gary is going to a check writing party on Friday night where he'll be making a donation. Howard said it's kind of tough to give money sometimes, especially when the money he paid in taxes last year probably could have paid to fix one of the levees down in New Orleans. He was talking about how if you give your money to the government, you think that the money is going to go to the wrong place and it will be wasted. Tom Chiusano came in and said that the President from Venezuela is offering aid for this whole thing. They were also talking about how the Mexican army is supposed to be coming up to help. Tom said that the best way to donate to this relief effort is to go to RedCross.org. Robin said that the sad thing is that 6 months down the road everyone will have forgotten about this even though people are still going to need help. Gary said that there were some people arguing about the comments Howard was making about saving the pets down there in New Orleans. Howard said that dogs are a man's best friend and he's seen them save people from fires and stuff so they should be saved. Gary said that they were on a bunch of different stations down in New Orleans and he went down there one time to visit and the Program Director refused to take him to the station because they didn't have a lot of money and the guy was doing multiple jobs. Howard was bored by the story so Gary explained how he tried to tell Howard the story yesterday off the air but Howard told him to tell it on the air. Even Gary knew that it was going to be boring so Howard wondered why he told him at all. Gary said he was just chatting with him so Howard told him to stop chatting with him already.
Howard had to go to break but he mentioned that The Fab Faux would be coming in to perform a couple of Beatles songs for them today. He went to break right after that.
Howard talked more about Bob Denver and how he never got residuals from the Gilligan's Island show. He would have been rich if he had because the show is still running to this day even after it ran just a couple of years on network TV. That led to them talking about how there are many old TV stars who refuse to show up to reunion shows for the shows they appeared on. They eventually come around and do make appearances but there's always at least one who won't. The guys had some fun goofing on some of those people before Howard had to take another break. He went to commercial after playing a George Takei prank call they made to a guy out in Arkansas.
Howard said that he has about 20 HBOs on his satellite system and he was watching ''Dirty Dancing'' again the other day. He got a little sidetracked when he started to do his impression of George Takei and spent a couple of minutes doing that. Robin was asking Howard questions as if he were George Takei. Howard eventually snapped out of it and talked about Jennifer Gray from Dirty Dancing and talked about her for a couple of seconds. Then he saw an HBO show called ''Conversations with my Father'' or something like that where Kirk Douglas and his son Mike were being interviewed. Kirk had a stroke and ended up singing on the show. Howard played some audio of that horror show and said he only lasted about 5 minutes watching the show. Howard said he doesn't want to get old as he was listening to Kirk slurring the song he was singing.
Artie forgot to tell Howard that he was going to be on Conan O'Brien's show last night. Howard figured he didn't want any pressure on himself so he just ''forgot'' to tell everyone. Artie said the interview went pretty well and told a story about going up to Albany and getting a cab ride home where a cop let him off because he's a fan of the show. There was pot smoke coming out of the car and Artie was puking on the side of the road. Artie said the story got a pretty big laugh. He also said that a bunch of the guys in the band on Conan's show are in this Fab Faux band that's coming in. Howard said he heard about the guys when he read an article in Rolling Stone magazine. After reading about them he told Gary to book them for the show.
Serrano told Howard that the Cuban Government has offered to send over a bunch of doctors to help out with what's going on down in New Orleans but this country isn't going to allow it. They think that the Cuban government is so bad that they won't allow them to send up experts in infectious disease. Serrano said that even after 45 years of embargos on trade with Cuba, Castro is still willing to help us out and it's not going to happen because of the politics in this country. Howard and Gary were saying that we should accept any help that we're offered for something like this. Howard said he has a cousin who fled Cuba many years ago and she probably wouldn't want to hear anything about Castro, but if they're offering the help, we should accept it. Serrano also said that this country has a relationship with Vietnam even after we lost 57,000 soldiers over there. Castro hasn't killed any of our soldiers yet we don't have a relationship with them. Serrano said that this country has to put aside any problems we have with Cuba and let them send up the 1,100 doctors that they're offering to send up here. There are a lot of people down in the New Orleans area who are getting infections from the dirty water there and they're dying already. We need the help and the government isn't doing all it can to help.
Howard let Serrano go after that and got into a discussion about the coverage that Oprah was doing from New Orleans and how graphic it was. They talked about all of the celebrities that go to disaster areas and how it seems like they're doing it just to make a buck or to get more publicity. Howard said he didn't realize that's what Bob Hope did for years back during the Vietnam war, until years later.
A listener called in and told Howard that Chaunce Hayden was blasting him in Steppin' Out magazine last month but Howard said he really doesn't care. He said that when you don't put someone on the air for a little while, they show their true colors. The caller was supposed to have been calling in to tell Artie how great he was on Conan last night.
Gary told Howard that Richard has a friend living in his apartment these days so they have to share a futon when they sleep. Gary said he comes in every morning complaining about how he has to fight for the pillow and for the blanket and stuff. The guy is a good buddy of Richard's so he didn't want to send him to a hotel or anything. Richard also got laid recently after doing a comedy show out in San Diego. Richard said he doesn't remember all of what happened because he was drinking a lot that night. He met some girl, but he doesn't know how, so he went down to a beach and they were making out while another couple was there. He said the girl was hot and Gary said he saw a picture of her and she really is hot. Richard said that he pleasured her with her hand and she did the same for him while they were on the beach. Richard said he almost puked on her. He had to stop her from doing what she was doing and he had to go down to the water to puke. He went back and kissed her after that but didn't tell her that he had just puked. They actually fell asleep on the beach after doing that... The delay was hit during that part of the conversation. Richard said the other couple woke them up and he couldn't remember where he was staying so they had to drive around for a while in a cab. He ended up spending $90 on the cab ride. He brought the girl back to his hotel room and thinks that they had about a 3 hour session because he was so drunk he couldn't finish. He said he felt like a porn stud lasting that long but Howard thought that women don't like going that long. There were multiple delay hits during the discussion so we missed out on quite a bit of what Richard was talking about.
Richard said that he took a bath in the hotel tub the next morning and there was a lot of sand in there. Artie thought it was funny that he took a bath in a hotel tub. He said he's never done that before. Artie wanted to see a picture of the chick so Gary said he'd go get one for him.
The song sounded like a studio recording of the song. Howard said it was ''Spectacular'' after they were done. Howard said it was really fun to actually see them performing it because they were creating subtle nuances in the background. They weren't trying to put on any phony accents or anything like that but they were recreating the song in an amazing way. The guys told Howard that they do create some of the sounds on tape but they recreated the whole thing and didn't take any of the audio from the old Beatles records. Artie and Robin said they were pretty blown away by the performance as well. The band will be performing some other songs from later albums and they'll also be doing a show where they perform the entire White album sometime around Christmas. Howard said he wants to go to that show. Robin wondered if Paul McCartney knows that they do this. The guys said that Paul knows about the band but he's not all that thrilled with all of the Beatles tribute bands out there. Gary said that he heard that Yoko doesn't like the band but they don't seem to care. Howard took some phone calls including one from Vinnie Favale who was sitting on a bus with a big smile on his face. He's a huge Beatles fan. Another caller, Hook Nose Mike, asked to request a song but the song he requested wasn't the one they were ready to play so Howard suggested that he request the song ''Tomorrow Never Knows'' so that's what he did.
Howard had the band go ahead and perform ''Tomorrow Never Knows.'' They did another amazing job with that song and, once again, it sounded like a studio version of a song. Howard and the guys were blown away by that one and Robin said she needed a joint after hearing the song. Howard told them how great they were and spent a couple more minutes talking to them. He wanted to hear a solo that Jimmy Favino had done so he had him go back over to his guitar and play it for him again. Howard seemed to be amazed at how they were able to recreate every detail in the songs they were performing. A listener called in and said he was out in his car listening and wanted to congratulate them on the great performance. Another caller told them that they nailed it and it was pretty amazing. Howard said he heard that the guys were willing to perform ''Strawberry Fields'' as well so he wasn't sure if they could do that or not. One of the guys wasn't feeling too well so he wanted to take a break but Howard had them just go for it and play. They came through once again with another great performance. Howard asked the guys what they think about the real songs and if they think Ringo Starr really drummed on the old stuff. They said that they're pretty sure that it was Ringo performing on drums and he really is a great drummer. Howard didn't know how to show his gratitude toward the guys so he said he was willing to pleasure them.
Howard took a bunch of phone calls for the guys and let some people tell them how great they were. Howard also asked Will how great it is to work on Letterman's show. He said it must be great to just stand there every night and get paid to do what he loves. Another phone caller thanked Howard for getting these guys on the show and wondered if there was any way he could get tickets to their show. Gary told him to buy them. Howard wrapped up a short time later. The Fab Faux will be appearing at Webster Hall in New York City on September 11th and 12th, so you can check out WebsterHall.com for more info on tickets.
Howard took a call from a woman who asked when Howard is going to make his move to satellite radio since her ''federal father'' (The FCC) has helped get Howard off the air there in Columbus, Ohio. Howard told the woman that if they do end up getting fined, the company will be firing him and he'll probably make his move over to satellite sometime after that. The woman was upset about them taking Howard off the air and how dumb the show is that replaced him out there. Howard gave the woman a $500 prize courtesy of the DVD release of ''Lost: The Complete First Season.''
Tom Chiusano came in and told Howard that he was not being fined for ''Dildo Golf'' like he was just telling the woman. The show was ''Strap-on'' golf and there was nothing dirty about it. Tom said that if they do end up getting fined, Howard will be suspended. He didn't say anything about being fired yet. Tom thinks that it will take a couple of weeks before the investigation is complete. Howard was also upset that they're only going to suspend him, he wants to be fired, even though he didn't do anything wrong. Howard said that he didn't do anything wrong because it's the company who had control of the delay button back then. Howard said he's never been suspended in his career but Robin reminded him about getting sent home from WNBC back when they were working there. Fred remembered that they were sent home for 2 days after that. They had done a ''Virgin Mary Kong'' bit that got them booted off the air that time. Tom said that he'll also be suspended if the FCC fines them so he won't be there to make the announcement. Howard went on to play the message that this guy Hal Blitz did on WBZX last week after they dropped the show. Howard also pointed out that this is their way of getting rid of his show early and not paying off their contract with him. Howard goofed on the guy a little bit after he had mentioned some of the guys who would be stopping by to do a farewell show about the Stern show.
Robin mentioned that there was an article in the paper about Howard so he talked about how a guy had come up to him and told him that Angelina Jolie was going to be showing up at the airport that he was at over vacation. He said that he was carrying a couple of bags and they took some shots of him and said that he was ''struggling'' with about 5 bags when he was photographed. He said he saw the photographer sitting in a car taking the pictures. He figures they were pissed that he didn't hang out with them and wait for Angelina to show up.
King of all Blacks called in to talk about the new SIRIUS walkman-like unit that's out. He said that the thing is outrageous but he doesn't have it in his hands yet. It's not coming until later this month. Howard said he can't talk it up on the air so he has to play it down a little and pretend he knows nothing about it. Howard and King spent a minute talking before Howard tried to end the call. King wanted to tell a joke but decided against it because it would be too vulgar. He said he'd wait until they move to SIRIUS. That led to Howard talking about how he has to come up with names for his channels over there. He's now saying that he may call it Douche 100 and Bag 101 or something like that. He won't be able to go over there to work later this month when the channels go live but he can have people like King of all Blacks doing shows. He's also got to shoot an opening for the new In Demand show.
Howard said he's got to do this whole In Demand shoot that's coming up and he needs Ralph around to help out. Ralph was out in L.A. up until just a few days ago so he had to fly back. Howard told Ralph he needs him next week too but Ralph is going to be in Germany with Sam Simon. Sam is flying him over there as well. Ralph told Howard how great it was out there in L.A. at Sam's house and how he's only about 2 blocks from the beach. He said the weather is just about perfect out there too. Artie said that he does have a great place out there and it's in just about the most perfect part of L.A. That it could be. Howard wondered if he's going to hyphenate his name to Ralph Cirella-Simon. Ralph doesn't understand why Sam puts Ralph up out there. Ralph said that he's doing some work for him out there. He also said he was keeping busy out there.
Howard said that Sam Simon called Artie before the hurricane last week and left a message for him. Sam told Artie that there's a new bet out there about teams that are on the road that have natural disasters in their area. That happened before the hurricane so Sam felt pretty bad after he saw just how bad the hurricane was.
Ralph said he asked his neighbor if she could watch his plants while he was away. When he came back he found that his plants were all half dead. She also took some of his food and stuff from his refrigerator and used his shower while he was away. He thought that was kind of weird and it kind of bummed him out that his plants were half dead. Howard had to take a break so he decided to do a fitting while the commercials were playing since he had to get out of there.
Howard started off the show talking about Artie's appearance on the Conan O'Brien show from the other night. He thinks that Artie failed to tell them about the appearance ahead of time because he's afraid that it's not going to go well. Robin thinks that it's because of the way Stuttering John made fun of him one time after he did a show like that. Artie said he's told them about appearances since then and he just forgot about it that day. Artie said he's done the show 11 times now so he's like a regular over there. Howard thought the appearance was very good and he had some good conversation with Conan. They did get some e-mail about the appearance and some people thought he didn't do so well. Other people thought it was good but also found it funny that he's going out promoting his DVD ''It's the Whiskey Talkin'' while he's sober. There were some complaints about Artie repeating a joke about waking up in a cop car. There was one e-mailer who said that when you take away alcohol from Artie, all you have left is Scott the Engineer.
Howard read an e-mail about Robin ruining the 50 Cent interview from the other day. There were some other e-mails about things like Daniel Carver who is actually going to be on the show today for Wack Pack Family Feud. Howard said Daniel and his family will be competing against Wendy the Retard and her family. They have a $5,000 prize for the winners of that game. Howard mentioned that Daniel Carver has a son by the name of Daniel Carver Jr. Gary came in and said that they have a Daniel Carver III that's Daniel's grandson. Gary also talked about how upset Daniel's family demanded a stretch limo so they sent a car over for them and it wasn't a stretch. Daniel called and said that he was kind of embarrassed by that but he doesn't care so much, it's just his wife that does. When they do other shows like Geraldo's, they get a stretch. Sal came in and said that it's funny how even Daniel is afraid of his wife and can't put a stop to her demands for a stretch limo. Sal said that there was also a demand from the wife that their grandson be flown in even though he's not playing the game with them. Sal got himself into trouble after saying that he likes black people... because he'd like to bang one some day if he ever gets out of his marriage. Howard kicked him out of the studio after that.
Howard said he was listening to the liberal station on SIRIUS last night and there was a chick, Stephanie, on the station where she played sound clips constantly. There were so many that he was getting dizzy trying to listen to it. He said she was good on the air but they should play about 30 percent less audio clip sound effects. He thinks that type of thing is kind of a borrowed aspect of his show that people slightly change.
Howard said he heard a clip from the Opie and Anthony show where they were going to have a band on the show but they wanted the girls in the band to get naked. They actually said that they know that it's been done before, but they were trying to improve on it. Howard said they don't directly credit his show for that, but at least they admit that it's been done before. He said they didn't actually improve on the idea in any way, but at least they were admitting it had been done. Howard asked the caller to replay the Rush Limbaugh tape once again. The guy played it and Rush may has well have just said the N-word instead of ''Nager'' in that sentence. Howard spent a few more minutes goofing on the conservative radio hosts. They also listened to the Rush clip one more time and then played some Johnny Rebel N-word songs for him. The caller gave Howard some bad news after the songs. He said he had tried to cue up the clip but accidentally hit 'Record' and erased it. Howard told him he probably would have kept him on for the whole show but he blew it. He gave him a $500 prize for calling in with that anyway.
Howard said they got a lot of feedback about The Fab Faux who were on the show yesterday performing a few Beatles songs live in the studio. Howard played some of their version of ''I Am The Walrus'' and talked about how amazing it was that they were able to get every subtle sound from the song. He also played some of their version of ''Tomorrow Never Knows'' which was just as impressive. They didn't try to change their voices in the songs, they just sang them their own way. Howard played a little bit of their ''Strawberry Fields'' performance after that. He said there were so many things going on in the studio that they didn't know where to look at any one time. Gary said he couldn't stop staring at the String players in there because you never really see that in a band these days.
Gary said that he had some more news about the Trump thing. He said that there went back and researched some of the names way back to 1829 and found that the Trump name went all the way back there and some of the names were Christian Johanas Trump, Frederick Christ Trump and stuff like that. He said that there's little chance that they'll find any Jewish in there. Howard was going to go to break but they had a few other things to play. It turns out Wolf Blitzer was referring to Jack Cafferty's comments about people being ''Black and Poor'' down in New Orleans but Cafferty didn't say ''So black'' like Wolf did. Howard played some audio of Cafferty's comments and then played something a little lighter.
Howard had some audio of Blue Iris the old lady porn chick. In the clip she has a guy come over to her house and does him there. She moans in her very unique, old lady, way. Howard said that when they move over to In Demand cable, they'll be able to show anything they want so they may get Blue Iris to play Mrs. Robinson so they can remake ''The Graduate.'' Blue Iris was on the phone a short time later. She was saying that the movie clip Howard just played was from ''Blue Iris Goes Hunting'' and then cracked some jokes about Donald Trump. Artie was doing his impression of Blue Iris from her movies and recited some of her funny lines while she laughed on the phone. Howard asked Iris what she's up to these days. She said she's just listening to his show today and not doing much of anything else. Howard let her get in a plug for a web site where you can pick up her movies. That site is at ExploitedMoms.com. Howard went to break right after that.
Another caller from Columbus told Howard how bad the show is that replaced his out there. He said they spent 4 hours talking about where the host was going to live. Howard said that's what's going to happen to terrestrial radio as the FCC starts cracking down even more. Howard said he'll be laughing while he's doing whatever he wants on satellite radio. He went on to play the announcement that this guy Hal Blitz did on WBZX last week after they canceled Howard's show. Howard goofed on the guy and kept saying that the company that owns that station is refusing to pay off their contract with him. Howard also thinks that the Greggo show isn't going to end pretty so he suggested ''Don't buy, rent!'' He said the North American Broadcasting Company will probably screw that guy as well.
Howard played an audio clip of Barbara Bush talking about how the people staying in the Astrodome are doing better there than they were doing living in New Orleans since they're underprivileged anyway. Howard had some clips they made up as Barbara Bush clips where she talks about how lucky those people are. They had a ton of the phony audio clips but Howard had to go to break before the Wack Pack Family Feud. He quickly mentioned that Elijah Wood will be on the show tomorrow and Tom Sizemore will be calling in from rehab tomorrow as well.
Howard moved on to Daniel Carver's family after that. He said hello to Daniel's wife Darlene who has been married to him for 37 years now. Howard then spoke to Daniel Carver Jr., Daniel's son. Daniel Jr. Has a son so there are three Daniels in the family. Gary asked Daniel if he has been dying his hair lately because it looked kind of dark. Daniel said that's not the case and he's not dying it. Gary also said that Daniel is very confident that they will win this game today since they are up against one retarded woman and her family. Daniel Jr. Has a lot of hate, just like his father. He called himself ''nig*** hater, agitator number 2'' just like his father is. Howard wondered if there were any years when Jr. rebelled against his father and actually liked black people. Daniel and Jr. Said that they both watch black comedians and make fun of them so they have watched ''The Jeffersons'' and shows like that over the years. Darlene said that they've raised their kids to stick with their own race and to never stray from that. Jr. Said that if they have a black mail delivery person, they have to stay at the end of the driveway and not come up to the house. Gary asked the family what they would do if their house caught fire and a black fireman showed up first. They all said that they'd rather let it burn. Howard asked the family what they think about the hurricane disaster. Daniel and his family seem to think that it was God cleaning up New Orleans. Jr. was even more hateful and said that if God liked the blacks down there, he would have gotten them their help sooner than 3 days after the disaster.
Scott DePace called in and asked Daniel if he would save Robin if she was drowning. Daniel said he would save anything from drowning, a dog, Robin, whatever. Darlene said that she would let her drown but Jr. Said that he would drag her out and keep dragging her along the pavement for a little while. Howard said it was interesting that Daniel Sr. Seems to be more compassionate than the rest of his family. Darlene said that she's so hateful that she wouldn't even let Robin save her if she was on fire. The guys think that Daniel has a bit of a soft spot for Robin since he's gotten to know her over the years. Darlene said that he's just waiting for her to get old enough to die.
Wendy told Howard that they have another hurricane in the Florida area this week and she's hoping that they don't have to cancel her Olympics this weekend. Howard cut her off and asked Darlene to rate the races for him since they do that with Daniel. She said that she finds the nig***s to be worse than the Jews but Daniel thinks that the Jew is the Devil so they're even lower than the nig***. Jr. was saying that he finds the darker the skin, the worse they are so the Jews rate lower on his list.
Howard was going to move on to the game but Wendy wanted to get in a plug for someone she met on the street yesterday. Howard told her they were playing the game and he wasn't going there. He had Wendy and Daniel go up to the buzzers so they could get started. The first category was ''What's the worst thing to call a Jew?'' Daniel came in with the buzz first so he said ''Kike'' and got the number one answer. The Carvers decided to play. Darlene said ''Devil'' as the next name but it wasn't on the board. Daniel Jr. Said ''a Christ Killer'' but that wasn't on the board either. Daniel was up again and said ''Jew Boy'' which wasn't on the board so Wendy's family took over. Wendy blurted out ''Fag.'' The family came up with ''Jew Bastard'' but that wasn't on the board. The Carver family kept the points. Howard read the rest of the names on the list and they were ''Hebe,'' ''Dirty Jew'' and ''Cheap.''
The second category was ''Name an occupation a retarded person can do.'' It was Joyce and Darlene up at the buzzer and Joyce came in with Grocery Bagger but Darlene said ''McDonalds'' and got ''fast food employee'' which was the number 1 answer. The Carvers took it and played for the win. Daniel Jr. was asked for another answer. He said it was tough to come up with something like that. He said ''Special Olympics.'' That wasn't on the board. Daniel Sr. was up next and said ''Door Greeter'' and got it. They went to Darlene again and she said ''Window washer'' but it wasn't on the board. Daniel Jr. Said ''Janitor'' and got another one right. Daniel Sr. was up and said ''Movie Star'' and got the third wrong answer so they threw it over to Wendy's family. Wendy said ''Bowl'' and her family couldn't come up with the correct answer so they lost the points again. It turned out ''Bus Boy'' was the final answer on the board.
The third category was ''Name a black person that acts white.'' Becca and Daniel Jr. were up at the buzzer and Daniel came in with Jesse Jackson but didn't get it. Becca said ''Michael Jackson'' who also wasn't up there. Daniel said ''Bill Cosby'' and didn't get that either. Becca didn't have another answer so they had to go to another question. Howard said the names on the list were Bryant Gumble, Colin Powell, Denzel Washington, Oprah Winfrey, Al Roker and Wayne Brady.
Howard moved on to another question which was ''What's the worst thing to call a black person?'' Daniel Jr. Said ''Nig***'' which was the number one answer. They took the category and decided to play. Dan Sr. Said ''Boy'' and got another one. Darlene said ''Black'' and missed one! Dan Jr. Said ''Coon'' and got another one right. Dan Sr. Said ''Porch Monkey'' and got another one right. Darlene went again and said ''Bubble Lip'' and missed another one. Junior said ''Jigaboo'' and missed another one. Wendy's family got the chance to take it but they don't have as much hate in them so they couldn't come up with anything other than ''Fag'' which came from Wendy. They gave an answer of ''Dog'' but that wasn't even close. The Carver family took it all. The answers they were looking for were ''Jungle Bunny'' and ''Eggplant.'' Howard was kind of sad because he was looking for Wendy's family to take home some money. The $10,000 prize was courtesy of the movie ''The Man'' and when Daniel Jr. Heard that, he thanked Samuel L. Jackson for the contribution to the Ku Klux Klan since Jackson is in the movie. Gary asked Daniel Jr. what he thinks about gay people. He said that it's the worst thing humans can do and he would prefer not to be in the same room with a gay person. They were asking about that because Mark Harris had come in and was pacing the halls just waiting to blast these people. Howard gave Wendy's family some prizes but nothing close to the ten grand they missed out on.
The guys brought in Mark Harris who is a gay man himself. He came in and said some things about the family that could be a bit libelous. The Carvers said that being gay is illegal because sodomy is illegal. Junior was going off on Mark about being gay and said that he would open up a 55 gallon drum of whoop ass on any gay guy that came on to him. The Carvers and Mark went back and forth arguing about whether or not being gay was okay or not. Howard asked Daniel if he would take a kiss from Mark Harris if they promised to get rid of all of the people they hate after the kiss. Daniel's wife said she would kill her husband if he did something like that.
Howard took a bunch of phone calls and one woman asked why they keep letting the Carver family win money on the show. Artie lost a football pool to Daniel and Daniel took home $25,000 thanks to that loss. Now he's taking home another ten thousand today. Howard was about to go to break but Wendy and her sister were giving shout outs to everyone they know and giving plugs for some guys they ran into on the street. After spending a few minutes doing that they wrapped up and went to commercial break.
Mark Harris was in to promote some kite flying event that he'll be at sometime soon. Howard talked to Mark about the way the Carver family was treating him while he was in there. They also let him know that the family had just won $10,000 in that game they just played. Howard asked Mark about the kite flying event he'll be singing at. Mark said the event will be taking place on Long Beach, Long Island and he'll be singing ''God Bless America'' there. Mark didn't seem to know all that much about what was going on and who he'd be singing along with. Howard read that the event is a 9/11 tribute event. He asked Mark to sing a little for them but Mark wasn't prepared to sing this morning. Mark asked to bring in a woman by the name of Joey to talk about the event. She came in a short time later so Howard asked her why she would book Mark to sing because it will just annoy everyone. She said they booked a few people to entertain the young, the old and everyone in between. She said they have a band called The Catskills and a rapper by the name of Kid Jacob who will be performing there.
Mark is claiming that he has some people interested in his ''Toony Tunes'' parody songs and they want to animate them. Howard found that hard to believe and told Mark that no one is going to buy them and animate them. Howard got back to Joey who told the guys about what Mark will be doing at the kite flying event this weekend. After going over that Howard talked to Mark about all of the projects he's had over the years. Gary asked him about some of the ideas he's had over the years for TV shows, clothing lines and other stuff. They've all failed to come to fruition. Howard thinks that the kite thing will work out just fine for him. The event takes place this weekend, September 11th, and it's the Freedom Flight Kite Tribute in Long Beach, Long Island from Noon to 3pm.
Howard wrapped up after that and said that he gave Wendy the Retard a $500 prize courtesy of the DVD release of Lost: The Complete First Season. He went to break right after mentioning that.
Robin mentioned that Daniel Carver Jr. Had invited Howard up to their house in the mountains of Georgia to play pool and stuff like that. They didn't invite Robin though. Robin was surprised that Daniel Sr. was actually the nicest person in the family after hearing the hate that his wife and son were spewing on the show today.
Robin finished up her news and Howard ended the show around 10:40am.
Howard cut off the opening of the show about 15 seconds into the Bush song. He didn't realize that he was interrupting it though so he let it play through before talking even more. Once the song was over he started the show. He said that he had a very long day yesterday after the show. He went over to a studio to shoot the beginning for the new In Demand TV show. That new show will have all of Howard's old E! shows and the new stuff from the SIRIUS studios once they move there and it will all be uncensored. Howard said he was shooting this opening against a green screen so you don't really know what's going on until they finish it. He's also planning to go over to the new studio next week to see the new studio. They have it all set up in styrofoam so they can see what it will be like. He's just afraid that they may be able to see each other too much in the studio. Howard thinks that the guys will be far enough away from the guys but he won't know until they all go over there. Gary said that has been a very big part of the studio design and they're trying to get that just right. Howard said he wants to be able to see Artie and sometimes Fred, but never Benjy. He would like to make sure he's lighted so they can create a whole show around him if they want to. They can put that on the In Demand show if they want. He also talked about how he was discussing the new studio while shooting the opening for the new TV show so he had a lot of stuff going on at once. His agent had to come over and talk him down before he went completely nuts.
The director for the new TV show opening has done a lot of stuff but Howard wasn't even sure exactly what that was. He said that he was actually on the In Demand web site yesterday trying to figure out how everything is going to work. He said it was very informative. Robin said she's been talking to people lately about how the E! show will be ending in December but it will be moving over to the In Demand thing. Plus, it will be uncensored on In Demand. Howard said that the FCC is going after cable TV now and he believes that the reason they're doing that is mostly because of him, not because of the Cathouse show or anything else. The guys were talking about the E! channel and how they have Tara Reid on there doing a show now and how much of a mess she is. That led to Artie bringing up Natasha Leone who was recently in the hospital and almost dead. She's in really bad shape and Michael Rappaport rented her an apartment to help her out but that turned into a nightmare for him. She was throwing parties and had people sleeping over and stuff like that. Howard said they'd be talking about that later on.
Richard described the barn at this farm of his parents. They don't really use the barn for farming because his father worked for the railroad. He said they have a lot of junk in the barn instead of having animals and stuff. The guys were talking about how Richard lived in a storage unit down in Florida for a while and how that was kind of an upgrade for him compared to where he lived before. Howard played the Barbara Bush audio clip where she says that the people living in the Astrodome are in a better situation there than they were in the homes they were in before the hurricane hit. That led to Howard talking about how George Bush was raised on the East Coast but now that he lives in Texas, he's pretending to be a farmer on his big ranch down there. Artie figured it was just the oil down in Texas that brought the Bush family down there. They also mentioned Don Imus as one of those guys who move out West and become cowboys even though they were never raised that way. Fred played the ''I'm a Fake Cowboy'' song parody he wrote about Imus after that. Richard said that when he saw Howard's movie ''Private Parts'' in the theater there were people throwing stuff at the screen when the Imus character came on screen.
Artie cracked a joke that Howard didn't understand so Artie had to explain how he shared a room with another comedian one time where he soaked his feet in green tea when they were getting ready to watch a baseball game. Howard talked about staying with Fred one time and how weird that was. Richard asked him if he had to share a bed like he's been doing with his friend from Arkansas. Howard spent a minute talking about how weird that is and how Richard shares a futon with a guy who is huge. He had to go to break right after that.
Howard got a copy of the tape that they were playing on the show yesterday where Rush Limbaugh referred to Mayor Nagin as ''Nager'' at one point during his show. Howard said it's obvious the guy did it on purpose. Howard went off on that like he did yesterday for a short time. He also had some tape of Vice President Cheney getting heckled and was told to go F-himself while he was on the air. Howard played the tape but they had to bleep it of course. He said once they move to SIRIUS they won't have to bleep it.
Howard mentioned that they have Kelly Monaco and Lara Flynn Boyle coming in soon and he can't wait. He said he really likes that Lara Flynn Boyle and has hung out with her before. He remembers that day because it was the last day he smoked weed. He ended up getting so paranoid that he ran out of the place so he blew the conversation he was having with her. She was going out with David Spade at the time. Artie said he always thought she was very sexy. Howard said that Gary was asking him what they should do for their last show there on terrestrial radio and every idea they come up with ends up being something they'd like to do for the new place so they just blow it off. He said they don't want to do anything that gets bleeped constantly. Howard talked about doing a roast show so he played Rev. Bob Levy's roast of him from a few years ago. It was a great roast where Bob really ripped into Howard. Howard said that the company has apparently booked a lot of advertising for the last quarter of this year but they're not throwing him a party or anything to thank him for the past 20 years of service that he's put in. Robin said they're acting as if he's not going anywhere. Howard said they might just bring in everyone that has contributed to the show in some way over the years and thank them. He's still not sure what to do.
A listener called in and said that he's a homeopathic doctor and wanted to warn Artie about the Paxil he's on and how it could cause impotence. Howard went on to talk about how addictive these prescription drugs are and how the drug companies are hooking people on them so they can keep selling even more drugs to take care of the side effects. The guys spent a few minutes talking about how the doctors and drug companies are working together on this stuff so they're all in cahoots to get people addicted to the drugs. The caller told Howard that what Artie really needs is a good shot of Man Juice and Howard should give it to him. Howard and the guys figure that guy wasn't really a doctor after saying that. Howard was going to take a break but he read that Jimmy Kimmel was crying on his TV show last night. He said that's about the third time Jimmy has cried on his show now. He went to break after mentioning that.
Howard took another phone call from a guy who said that he and his whole family will be following him over to the new place. Howard said they changed his web site to read ''The revolution begins in...'' instead of ''Howard has ... until his contract expires.'' He spent a couple of minutes talking about how great things are going to be when they move. The phone caller he had on the line asked Howard to play some of the Phil Hendrie clips he had. Phil works for Clear Channel but went on the air and bad mouthed them after saying some nice things about Howard Stern. Howard played those clips and Phil gave credit to Howard for making it possible for guys like Rush Limbaugh and himself to be on the air. In another clip Phil was talking about how the radio industry doesn't protect itself from the FCC, they just punish themselves.He went off on Clear Channel as well and talked about how they won't fight the FCC, they will just fire their talent if the FCC comes after them. That led to Howard talking about this guy Bubba the Love Sponge who was working for Clear Channel and making them tons of money. When they got some FCC fines, they ended his career by firing him. Howard was asked where he's working now so Howard said that the guy is now going to be working with him over at SIRIUS. Bubba used to bad mouth him on the air but he contacted him off the air and said that his career was ruined by being fired. Howard said that the guy told him that he's actually a fan of Howard's and got to know him off the air. Howard said that led to him hiring him to work along side him over at SIRIUS. He said that Bubba told him that he will lay down his life for him to be on his channel. He had fire in his eyes so Howard hired him on. Clear Channel just threw him out and Howard is taking him in to build up his own channels over at SIRIUS.
After breaking the Bubba the Love Sponge news, Howard played some more of the Phil Hendrie clips. He was saying that he's going to be giving a lot of guys a new home so they can speak the way they want to speak on the air. The caller Howard had on the line said that he may just change Western Civilization if he keeps doing what he's doing. Howard said ''Really?'' and let the guy go. He said that this is the only way for him to fight back, by moving to satellite radio. Sal the Stockbroker came in a minute later and asked Howard if he thinks that Bubba would do for Howard what Howard is doing for him. Howard said that Bubba was taken off the air because of the government and it's just not right. Howard also said that he would even hire Mancow tomorrow if something like that happened to him. He said it's bigger than him and it's not just about the guys who have bad mouthed him over the years. He said that when the FCC can squander a billion dollars worth of money that was supposed to go to inner city kids, and then they waste their time coming after him, there's something wrong. Howard had Sal repeat after him by saying ''I am a glorified listener'' and told him to go back to the office and stop arguing with him. Another caller told Howard that was a classy move to hire Bubba to work for him even after he had bad mouthed him. Howard had Michael Rappaport on the phone so he moved on to him.
Howard wondered if Michael ever slept with Natasha. He said he didn't and that wasn't the reason he's getting divorced. Michael said that he's getting divorced and he is dating now though. He said they broke up about a year ago and he's getting his legs back on the ground now as a single man. Gary came in and brought up a story about Michael begging to go to the Playboy mansion with them but then had to beg to bring his wife because he had to get her permission to go there. Howard said he knew they were doomed way back then when Michael didn't show up. Gary said it was the tightest guest list they ever had back then and Michael still failed to show up. Michael said that he could care less about those chicks up at the mansion, he's not into the fake boobs and blonde hair. Gary told him to be careful saying that because the first time they see a picture of him with one of those girls, they're going to post it on their web site.
Gary mentioned that Michael's father used to run this radio station WKTU in the city many years ago. Michael said that he changed the station from a mellow format to the more urban stuff. They spent a minute on that and then Howard gave Michael a plug for his new TV show ''The War At Home'' which will be airing on FOX, Sunday night after ''The Simpsons.'' Howard let him off the phone after that. He continued to talk about Natasha and how bad he feels for her.
Gary told Howard that he would love to hear a channel filled with the guys who have bad mouthed Howard before. He thinks it would be interesting to hear them. Howard said that there will be more surprises in the future as he builds his channels over at SIRIUS. Gary said that Sal was very upset about Howard hiring Bubba the Love Sponge to work for him after the guy has bad mouthed him so much.
Gary said that the reason Tom was calling in was to say that he's not nuts like people think. He also asked Tom if he still has the ''Hedi'' tattoo he had just above his pubic area. Tom laughed and said he can't see it anymore. Howard asked Tom what kind of stuff he's doing while he's in rehab. He has to do some cleaning and stuff like that to keep himself busy. Tom said he'll be in rehab for about 72 days and no one is ever really cured from drug addition. Howard wondered when he's going to get out of there. Tom said that he should get out on September 15th. He also said that he went into a tail spin after the court case where Heidi accused him of beating her up and that's what led to him using the drugs and eventually going into rehab. Howard played another clip where Tom was talking about how he wishes cancer on cops and talks about how much he hates them because they cost him $40 million. Howard said he's pulling for him and hopes he's able to pull himself out of this whole thing. Tom said he's so broke that he bought a Pepsi yesterday and now doesn't have any money. Howard invited him to come in as soon as he gets out of rehab. He told him he was going to let him smoke crack with Benjy when he comes in. He asked Tom to start screaming crazy to get the guards to come in and get him under control. Tom said he couldn't do it, it was too early in the morning. Howard gave Tom a plug for this web site where his videos can be found at XXXTom.com. He eventually convinced Tom to yell out a few things like ''My feet are eating my head!'' Tom did that but Howard let him go before anything happened. Howard went to break right after that.
Beth said they have another van showing up on Sunday with more animals to be adopted. They have at least 40 animals coming on that day and they're all being rescued from the Biloxi area. Leslie said they're going to need a lot of foster homes for the pets that have owners, but no homes right now. Howard said that they're going to adopt some pets, but not for 2 years. Webmaster Doug called in and said that his whole family is thrilled to have Abbie coming to his home. That let to Howard talking about how Doug uses one of those invisible fence things and he's not sure if he likes it. Gary said that he went to a house where the dog ran up to the invisible fence and let out a screech like he's never heard before. Doug said he probably wouldn't use it on Abbie anyway. His kids have tried it out and it's not all that bad from what he heard. Beth told Doug they were very happy that he was taking the dog. He'll be picking up the dog tomorrow. Howard let Doug go and talked about how that dog went through hell. Robin said she won't be taking in any pets unless someone can assure her that the dog will be like Air Bud.
Leslie talked about how amazing Beth is with the pets that they've been saving. She goes right up to them and will pull them out of their cage and kiss them. Howard told her that she's going to get a nice surprise this weekend because she's been so good lately.
Howard got back to Elijah and talked about the ''The Lord of the Rings'' and how he should really go back and watch them again. He said that Elijah is in a new movie called ''Green Street Hooligans'' which is probably a good thing because that way maybe people won't just think of him as Frodo from ''The Lord of the Rings.'' Howard and Artie were talking about how whenever they see Fred Gwynne, they can only think of him as Herman Munster no matter what part he's playing. Elijah said that he kind of likes doing the smaller films that are character driven instead of the big blockbuster movies. He said he's not done with blockbusters, but it would have to be the right role. Elijah has been in the business for a long time and he never got pigeon holed like some actors have over the years. He said his mother would threaten to take him out of the business as a punishment type of thing so he behaved himself. There were also stories about his parents splitting up because his father couldn't handle living in L.A. when they moved there. His father moved back to Iowa from where they came from. Now Elijah hasn't really been speaking to his father much over the past few years. He said the phone calls came less and less over the years and now he doesn't try to call at all. Howard told Elijah about Robin's father and how she didn't start talking to him until he had Alzheimer's late in his life. Robin said that was great for her because he couldn't remember what happened years ago.
Howard read the list of women that Elijah has dated over the years. They spent a short time talking about Bijou Philips but it turns out Elijah never went out with her, it was just a rumor. Mandy Moore was on the list as well but that wasn't true either. Elijah said that the only actress he's dated that anyone might know is Franka Potente. Howard moved on to talk about his movie ''Green Street Hooligans'' that Elijah is in now. They talked about the plot of the movie and what happens in it. Elijah said that it's a pretty violent movie. Artie said that he loves stories about this stuff. He said he saw a documentary about these hooligans over in London and how crazy things are over there. Elijah told Howard about the reasons he thinks that these guys become hooligans and how he actually hung out with some of them during the filming of the movie. He also told Howard he can't wait for Howard to move over to SIRIUS so he can finally curse on the air. He said he was holding back today. He also revealed that he's trying to get his own show going over at SIRIUS and would like to do a talk show about music. Howard told him he'd put him on one of his channels if he wants.
Howard's buddy Ralph called in and said that Elijah doesn't have to worry about being just known as Frodo because if he's a good actor, like Harrison Ford, no one will think of him that way. Ralph ended up calling him Frodo when he asked him a question though. Howard told Elijah that their board operator, Louis, was kind of gay for him and he had asked to meet him. Louis came in and asked Howard where this was coming from because he didn't ask to meet him today. Gary told him that Louis buys both copies of the movies when they come out. Louis said he saw the first movie 7 times because it was like Star Wars for him. Gary asked Louis if he brings the Dungeons and Dragons dice with him when he goes to see the movie for the sixth time. Louis ended up going off on Howard about loving Star Trek and how he has no right to go off on him about loving ''The Lord of the Rings.'' Howard heard that Louis won't lend out his DVDs to anyone. Louis said that's not true but he does tell people who borrow it that he wants it back in the same condition he gave it to them. Elijah revealed that he didn't get a great deal with those movies and he's totally screwed. He didn't get any points and only got a paid a flat rate for doing all three. He only made about a million for doing all three movies! He also said that the director is still fighting to get paid money he's owed as well. Elijah said that he heard that they have tapes of people like Vin Diesel and Kylie Minogue auditioning for the roles. Elijah said he shot a video for them where he was in the woods pretending to be Frodo trying to get the part.
Howard thought that Liv Tyler would have been in the movie more than she was by the way she goes around talking about the part like it was huge. Artie was thinking about Elijah's deal and how much he could have made if he had points. Artie said he's gotten some residual checks from movies he's done that were like twenty grand. The ''The Lord of the Rings'' movies have probably made somewhere over 3 billion dollars and Elijah gets nothing from that. Howard got back to Louis and talked to him about playing Dungeons and Dragons. Louis spent a minute talking about that. Howard asked him if he ever cried during the ''The Lord of the Rings'' movie. He said that didn't happen... but he did get misty eyed. Elijah said that he had to cry in the movie... and Gary said that was probably because his feet hurt. Artie said he was crying when he found out he wasn't going to get residuals from the movies. Howard said he really didn't see all of the movies. He saw the third one and liked it but he's really not into it.
Howard took a couple of phone calls for Elijah and one guy was a location manager for a photo shoot they did. He said that Elijah was a really down to earth person who would talk to him and hang out unlike some other actors who aren't so nice. Howard let him go and then wrapped up and gave Elijah another plug for his movie ''Green Street Hooligans.'' He also gave him a plug for his record company web site SimianRecords.com. Elijah said it's just a temporary site right now. Howard went to break after that.
Howard had Mike get to his Gossip Game and said that it was sponsored by the ''Lost: The Complete First Season'' DVD release. Howard had him get to the game so here's how it goes... Each week Mike Walker calls in with four gossip stories. Three of the stories are from his National Enquirer gossip column. One of the stories is false. Everyone tries to pick out the false story. The stories will appear in Mike's gossip column each week after he plays with Howard. Here are this week's stories:
A listener called in to talk about an appearance that Gary made up in Boston. He said there was an hour long line and by the time he got up to Gary, he didn't have any photos to sign, he was signing bumper stickers. Gary came in so they played some Baba Booey song parodies. He said he brought 200 pictures with him and they were all gone because there were so many people there. Gary was saying that they had a guy from another radio show who was going to pour something on him so the people at Newbury Comics had to let him know about that. He told Howard that it was kind of a sad day up there because everyone up at WBCN is so upset that they're going to be leaving. Gary said he felt like he was on his way to die when he was walking away since he'll never go back up there to visit those guys again. The caller said that it was kind of sad to see Gary standing up taking pictures with everyone that was there. Gary said that everyone has a camera now and that's what slowed things down up there at the appearance.
Howard said that there's some weird things going on at the stations they're leaving. Gary told him that there are some stations who would like to honor all of the years of service he's put in for them but they're not sure if Howard would show up or if their company would be into doing something like that. Howard said he'd be willing to do it but he doesn't think his own company would be willing to back it. He said he pictures a week of celebration where they bring in people from stations who have helped, wack pack members, even Jackie the Joke Man who used to be on the show. He said he'd even like to let the guy from the appearance pour something on Gary. Gary said that they could do something like Johnny Carson did and just have the core guys from the show telling stories. Howard and Artie think that it would be great to just have a bunch of people come in and tell stories. Howard would like to get Cabbie out of jail for a day and let him come in. He said he was just writing a letter to him last night that he'll be sending along to him. Howard and Gary ended up talking about how Cabbie has to serve his full year sentence with no chance to get out early for good behavior. He won't be getting out until next July. You can write to Cabbie if you want by going through his web site FreeCabbie.com. Howard had to cut that conversation short so they could get the news done since it was already 10:30.
Dominic Barbara called in and told Howard that Cabbie could be out of jail, in a halfway house, about 3 months before the end of his sentence. He doesn't have to spend every last minute in jail. He was also telling Howard to cover many of the big things that happened during his 20 years on the air. Howard cracked some jokes about Dominic's weight and then let him go so Robin could get back to her news.
During Robin's news Howard took a call from a woman who went off on Artie about some comments he was making about Oprah Winfrey and Chris Rock having gone down to New Orleans for publicity. Howard and Artie laughed when they heard her say that and told her to wake up and think about it. If they didn't want publicity, they wouldn't go down there with cameras. The woman said that she hasn't donated anything yet herself because she can't afford to. Howard called her a phony and hung up on her. He ended the show a couple minutes later around 10:55am.
