Stern's descent into irrelevancy is very indicative of the entire boomer generation themselves. The Boomer's seem to be the first generation who not only refuse to step down and allow in new ideas / new blood but seem to actively seek to sacrifice the young for the *very* short term of the old.
Howard is a misogynist through and through (he had a game where raw meat was thrown at scantily clad women - likening them to pieces of meat and the crowd loved it). Leftist celebrities that hangout with Stern obviously don’t care about the damage he’s done to women and we all know that Hollywood will turn a blind eye to hate and misogyny as long as they are profiting from the relationship.
He embodies the jewish influence in our mainstream culture. Starts out as cool and rebellious, but was really just degenerate, anti-Christian, toilet humor the whole time.
Why this ass is given a free pass by the nerds on the left amazes. He would have women on his show, co hosted by the dyke and 'ba ba louie', and sniff their crotches up close and tell them if they were on their period or not. Fact check me. This perv gets a free pass from the AOC's and Pocahontas Karens. Unbelievable.
"Perhaps all he ever wanted was to be embraced by the mainstream. Watch out for rebels who just want to be accepted. Insulting famous people so fiercely and colourfully might have been a symptom of his bitterness for being looked down on."
Stern was always human cancer. He's a product of the closed, pre-internet, media culture. He wouldn't have had a shot today and is only followed by old ghouls with from another time who listen to Styx..
Once during Stern's heyday, a young man called into his show saying he was about to jump off the George Washington Bridge. Stern immediately took control of the situation, asking his listeners on the bridge to confirm the would-be jumper's story by honking if they could see him; once they did, Stern kept the man talking until another listener managed to pull him back from the edge. Granted, Stern went about it as you might expect, e.g. asking the suicidal man why he didn't want to stay alive long enough to see the movie version of "Private Parts," but it's a testament both to how wide Stern's reach used to be, and how he could, when he had to, do a good thing once in a while.
The real mystery isn't why no one under 40 (I'd have guessed 50, actually) listens to Stern, it's why anyone older than a high school sophomore does.
Good piece.
Thanks Niccolo!

Interesting. What "new ideas" are Boomers preventing? Clot shots? Trans indoctrination? Socialism? Facism? Stolen elections? Nuclear War?
We won't be around much longer. After we're gone, go for all of it. You won't be around much longer either if you do.
As for Stern, he was never funny to me. He was a man child who sought attention by eating shit.
What the hell is wrong with his wife agreeing to be locked down with this lizard.
She must be nuts too.

Absolutely.
I’d like to rip the wig off his head and throw it in a wood chipper.
Ugly SOB

He became what he is by being a Jewish kid who was beat up by all the Black guys at his schools.
His youthful rebellion against the mainstream was calculated: he understood it as a way to attain wealth and fame.
His retreat to and alliance with the mainstream was, in retrospect, predictable: he understands it's necessary to retain wealth and fame.
He disappointed so many because they refused to see the obvious: there was always less to the man than met the eye (or the ear, as it were).
If elevator music could speak it'd sound like today's Howard Stern.
Brilliant line, best part of the piece:
"Perhaps all he ever wanted was to be embraced by the mainstream. Watch out for rebels who just want to be accepted. Insulting famous people so fiercely and colourfully might have been a symptom of his bitterness for being looked down on."
He says he has a black belt in martial arts, right.
Looks like he would drop from the swish of a missed punch.
He’s “The Kung Fu Jew”

Always thought Stern was simply a potty-mouthed narcissist, taking advantage of the "into the sewer" years of American culture.

He's a broadcasting genius, there's no denying it
You’re not funny anymore Howie! Make sure you get vaccinated, stay home & wear your mask!
