Stern takes on Powell

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Radio shock jock Howard Stern, who is moving to satellite radio to avoid broadcast decency rules, traded verbal jabs on air with Federal Communications Commission Chairman Michael Powell on Tuesday, charging him with nepotism and undermining free speech.

"It is apparent to most of us in broadcasting that your father got you your job," said Stern, who called in while Powell was being interviewed on San Francisco's KGO-AM 810.

Powell shot back that his father, Secretary of State Colin Powell, had nothing to do with his appointment. The FCC chief was nominated to the commission by then-President Bill Clinton (news - web sites) and elevated to chairman by President Bush.
"You can look at my resume if you want, Howard, I'm not ashamed of it, I think it justifies my existence," he said.

Howard could not be reached for comment but he did say a few things on his bulletin board yesterday:

Damn straight..i called in and confronted the
guy...they all got nervous and hung up on me...i was
just getting started... the guy denies everything and
then acts like he's innocent of everything...i'll get
the tape and play it tomorrow...


"i said to the dude why don't you admit that you got
the job through your father...he said i was personally
attacking him...i said no i wasn't ..he said he was
qualified and i said there are lots of guys qualified
but they chose you because of your father and we have
a right to know why you were chosen...i told him i
never got anything because of my father and he got the
commission job the same way gw got out of the draft"

Hear the call here...

Would you pay to be a member of Howard's Bulletin Board?

This doors of the Howard Stern BB were re-opened wide this week. Registration is now open and many of the banned have been allowed to return. And it didn't take long for trouble to begin. Someone posted High Pitch Eric's phone number and according to Eric on the air today he received over 85 calls this weekend. The BethO bashing has revved up again, the flaming of members have begun again (yours truly is experiencing that joy) and Howard today for the third time in as many weeks said he is considering shutting the place down. He even told High Pitch Eric today, "Just say the word Eric and I will shut it down." Howard did mention another idea today: Making the place a paysite to help keep the troublemakers out. Would you pay to be a member of Howard's BB? That is the qustion today, my very first Poll question here in this blog so please cast your vote and leave a comment or two if you like:

(voting is now closed)

Despite all of its problems it's still a cool place to hang out. I even got to chat alittle with Perry Farrel from Jane's addiction there this week but will I want to pay in the future for such a privilege? Hmmm....For me it depends on the fee.
A one-time or yearly fee of less than $20 I might go for. Any more and I am not so sure...How about you? Cast your vote from now until election day and we will let you know the results.


Thanks to all of those that voted. Overwhelmingly the fans have voted that they would not pay one red cent to be a member of Howard Stern's Bulletin Board.
It is,however,still too close to call in the State of Ohio.

May the farts be with you.

Jeff Schick speaks !!!

According to the "Official" Howard Stern BB banned list by former member,1MeanBean, the number of banned members is now over 300 and counting.
The List
Why people are being banned and why threads and posts are being deleted is anyones guess but a few more guidelines were offered yesterday by the main man in charge Jeff Schick. A thread questioning the moderation at the board, instead of being deleted like most expected, is now stuck at the top of the board where Jeff Schick addressed some of the members' concerns.
Read that thread here...
----

On what the moderators have been told:

The moderators have instructions to remove -
threats, posts with personal information,posts regarding competitors,
plugs/advertising that are not sanctioned by the show,
hate posts regarding the show. They should not be changing thread titles or combining threads.

On posting criticism of the show:

Constructive Criticism and Suggestions are great,....
If the thread is framed - Things we would love to see on the E! Show
OR Things we DO NOT want to see on the E! Show
I think this is very much framing constructive criticism in the proper light...

Writing - The E! Show Sucks (or some aspect like this) is surely not constructive in the way the discussion is framed...I hope this make sense to you .


In regards to registeration being open:

I believe we will open back up within the next 72 hours.

For the people that have been banned:

If they want back on to the HSBB, they should send an email to moderator@howardstern.com for review and possible reinstatement.
We have implemented notification thru an email message for a warning or for revocation of an ID. The email should highlight the specific issue/transgression. This was started in the last week. There are many people that have been reinstated. I know that for sure.


How he became associated with the show:

I am a big fan of the show and had always thought that if I had the opportunity to meet the folks on the show, I would do the best job I could in providing technology and services that could support the show. I met Howard and the HS Show in 1993 when I called the show. In 1993, I was a field Systems Engineer at IBM providing technical support to a set of clients in NYC. Howard had been looking for a new computer. Gary Dell Abate , at the time, had a MAC and was able to play games and do some fun things. Howard had said on the air that he was looking at IBM, Apple,.. and if anyone that was from these companies were listening to please call in.
I tried to call the show and was able to get thru. I told John Melendez I was with IBM and that Howard wanted to speak with me on the air. John said he would put me thru on air and promptly dropped my call. I called back and managed to get back to John and he put me thru. It was my first time talking with Howard and I was basically making a sales call on the air in front of the audience. For sure I was nervous. I basically told Howard that we could do the things he was looking for and that he should come by IBM and see it. We are located right next door. KROCK was at 600 Madison Avenue and IBM is at 590 Madison Avenue. Howard told me to hang on and they would take my contact information to setup a meeting. It was on a Tuesday, the week before Thanksgiving. After the show, I talked with Laura Lackner, Howard's assistant. She scheduled HS to come to IBM that Thursday to see what we had.
From talking with Laura, I knew that they needed a general office solution for wordprocessing, a file server, a network and a solution to archive articles, photos, fan mail, ... We scheduled the demo for Thursday, the week before Thanksgiving.
From Tuesday to Thursday we prepared. That Thursday, Howard and Laura came to IBM after HS had been talking about this meeting for the last couple days. Outside IBM was camped Entertainment Tonight, Hard Copy,.. We let Howard and Ronnie driving HS's car, into the IBM parking garage under the building. Laura had already arrived. I met HS in the parking garage to escort him up to the IBM Briefing Center. When HS got out of the car , the first thing he said to me was,...... - " J

On what else is being done:

....(I am)reading every post in this thread which means that I am taking into consideration all that is said... in the end , we want the best BB and for everyone to have fun. I am paying attention.


Jeff Schick

Cut or Uncut? That is the question!!!

Yes, that is the question on the mind of a popular member of the Howard Stern BB who goes by the name mohel. And mohel has been asking that question to Howard Stern people and compiling their answers for quite some time now. I thought it would be a cool idea to add his list to the blog. Thanks mohel for the list and for your dedication. Please keep us updated. And people think I have a weird hobby. haha
-----

Hey Doc...here's my official Howard Stern crew cut/uncut list. Every person on the list is verified by an admission on air or an admission on the board or a suposition based on their religion. Here ya go:


Circumcised:
AJ Benza - He admitted on the air that he is circumcised.
Artie Lange - When he started on the show he told a story about sleeping with a girl over in Germany and Robin asked him if she commented on him being circumcised. He said it didn't seem to bother her.
Benjy Bronk - He's Jewish but I asked him on the Bulletin Board and he said he had a bris.
Booker - This one is a maybe but Cabbie told me in an email that he was.
Cane - Cabbie also told me Kane is cut too.
Chaunce Hayden - Told me he was cut on the Bulletin Board PLUS we've all seen his dick enough to know.
Crazy Cabbie - I asked him in an email and he told me he's circumcised
Don Buchwald – He’s Jewish so probably circumcised

Fred the Elephant Boy - Jewish also and circumcised.
Gary Del'Abatte - Admitted he was cut on the air also (he also had Jackson & Lucas circumcised too)
Gary the Retard - Was asked by Howard on the show and he said he is...but I'm not so sure he knows what it means.
Henry Hill - Talked about converting to Judaism on the show and how he had to get circumcised.
High Pitch Erik - Jewish but also admitted on the air when Fred the Elephant Boy had to paint his balls green. Everyone commented on the fact that nobody could tell he was circumcised.
Howard Stern - Has admitted to being circumcised a number of times on the air...has also said he wishes he wasn't.
Jackie Martling - Admitted he was circumcised on the air a few times usually in reference to Fred's uncut status.
Jason Kaplan - Jewish so probably cut.
JD Harmeyer - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said, "Well, I am circumcised. I'm not jewish so there was no bris. I'm not sure how the topic came up about it after I was born. I just know, it was done."
Joey Boots - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said "71/2 inches cut"
Luke the Intern - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said he's "circumcised neatly".
Mark Harris - Jewish and circumcised.
Mel Karmizin - Jewish and probably circumcised.

Mr. Skin - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said, "circumsized"
Ralph Cirella - Howard told a female guest that liked Ralph that he was not circumcised. Robin said to him.."are you not?" Ralph said, " of course I am" Howard was just trying to turn her off to Ralph.
Reverend Boby Levy - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said, "i'm cut...not bris..they just cut off a piece of my helmut..chicks and cabbie like it cut"
Ronnie Mund - More Christmas lights than most Christians but still a Jewish guy so probably circumcised.
Ross Zapin - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said he's "cut to perfection"
Scott De Pace - Admitted he was circumcised on the air and fought with Howard over the fact that he was going to have his son circumcised also.
Scott Einziger - Jewish guy so I assume he is.
Scott the Engineer - I asked him on the Bulletin Board and he said he is circumcised and he had a bris.
Shuli - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said "I was born in Israel so yes I am cut."
Stuttering John Melendez - Admitted on the air he was circumcised once after they talked about his disgusting toenails. Howard said he had such poor hygeine, he wondered if John was at least circumcised. When he said he was, Robin said, "thank God".
Wayne Siegel – I asked him on the Bulletin Board and he said, “yep... got the hitler helmut and everything...”
Zolar - I aske him on the Bulletin Board, he said he's a "circumcised German".
Uncircumcised:
Angry Black - I asked him on the Bulletin Board, he said, "I hope you're a chick - un"
Fred Norris - Born of Latvian parents, Fred Jr. was never circumcised and it has been discussed a lot on the show. Fred's nephew came on the show but his father (Fred's brother) had him circumcised.
Gay Ramon - I had seen his naked magazine spread so I already knew, but some guy named Doc asked him on the board and he said he's uncut
Mike Walker - Admitted on the show that he's uncut
Sal the Stockbroker - I asked him on the Bulletin Board and he said, "I have more folds on my cock then Vinnie has under his chin. Uncircumsized."
Vic the Intern - Former intern, Indian guy...Stuttering John told everyone that Vic is uncut
Vinnie Favali - Admitted on the show that he's uncut.
Unknown:
Captain janks - I asked him on the Board and he didn't answer.
Cliff Palette - I asked him on the Board but he wouldn't answer.
Crackhead Bob - Never admitted anything.
Dan the Song Parody Man - I asked him on the Bulleting Board but would not answer
Daniel Carver - I've asked him a few times on the Board and he never responds.
Double A - I asked but he didn't answer on the Bulletin Board
KC Armstrong - I asked Cabbie and he told me that KC is cut. He wore red speedos on the show once and in a close up he looked very cut. I'm assuming he is but he has never admitted it on the show, so I'll keep him unknown.
Tom Chiusano - Never admitted anything about it on the show.
Yucko - I asked him on the Bulletin Board and he just made a joke but didn't answer.
There are of course more that I don't know of...but I'll keep my ear open on the show and I'll also do what I can to keep working on it. I hope you decide to pitch in and add it to your list of questions. I'd totally appreciate it. Anyway...take care buddy. Keep up the good work with the Shrine, see ya around the Bulletin Board.

P.S. Oh, I forgot one more:

Last but not least Doc - I asked him on the Bulletin Board and he said, "cut".

Breaking News: Kevin Smith censored at the Howard Stern BB

Kevin Smith came on the Howard Stern BB yesterday and posted this congratulations to Howard on his new deal with Sirius


Congrats on your Sat-Radio Deal, Opie and Anthony

Sorry... Howard, I mean.

Good for you, sir. I'll finally be able to hear you utter potty-mouthed favorites like "whore-hole" and "cum buns" instead of those "Newlywed Game" euphemisms you've had to employ all these years. I, for one, look forward to listening to the show at a reasonable time, instead of this wee-small hours bullshit. If you're a just man, you'll give Robin at least half of that hundred million; she's the floatation device(s) without whom the show would sink.

And, if I may be so bold, a belated welcome to cyber-space. I've been doing the web-board thing since '95. Hit-count-wise, I thought I was pretty successful at it, too... 'til you opened this sight. Now, Kenneth Keith Kallenbach's web site laughs at mine.

The King of All Media? More like the King of All Stealing-Any-Web-Juice-I-Ever-Had.

Fucking Web-Juice Stealer...

A Place Not Unlike This... Except Folks Don't Use the Terms "Nigger", "Douchebag", or "Artie" Quite as Much

(And just in case I didn't whore my shit out enough...)

Jesus Saves!

Today,however,his comment was changed by one of the mods to:

Congrats on your Sat-Radio Deal, oh King Of All Media..

Kevin seeing what had occurred had this to say today:

Yipes... I've been edited.

Just so we're clear: people who post here can hurl racial slurs and all manner of invective... but you can't even [I]jokingly[/I] refer to other radio personalities? And I thought [I]I[/I] was thin-skinned (y'know - [I]under[/I] all the fat).

Administrator/Moderator, I'm pretty sure Howard wouldn't have been bothered by the reference. Admittedly, it wasn't a great joke, but it was a joke nonetheless - on the web board of a guy who's championed comedy for over two decades now. You're making him come off as prissy when you presuppose he can't handle gentle ribbing. And having known Howard (albeit not intimately) for the better part of the last ten years, the man's anything [I]but[/I] prissy.

If Gary'd mentioned there'd be post-censoring when he invited me to hit the board, I would've brought along my own White-Out. Congrats on your Sat-Radio Deal, oh King of All Media

Kevin's censored thread here...

After I instructed him to stop his whining and get in line with the rest of us he shot back: Done and Done! HOWARD RULZ !

More as this story unfolds.




Just a quick update: The censoring quickly became a non-issue for him and Kevin Smith fielded questions from the fans for hours. He seemed really cool. There is even a chance I might be in his next movie. Hey Now!! He thanked everyone for the nice welcome and signed off just after 6. Despite all the crys of censorship and what not there you can't beat hangin out at the Howard Stern BB...Like today, you just never know who might pop in next.

Howard Stern and SIRIUS Announce the Most Important Deal in Radio History
October 06, 2004 08:37:00 AM ET

Radio Innovator Signs Five-Year Agreement to Broadcast on SIRIUS Beginning in 2006

Landmark Deal for SIRIUS and Satellite Radio Industry,
With Significant Potential to Accelerate Growth for SIRIUS
NEW YORK, Oct. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- "King of All Media" Howard Stern and SIRIUS SIRI announced today an epic agreement whereby Stern will move to SIRIUS beginning January 1, 2006. SIRIUS is the premium satellite radio provider known for delivering the very best in commercial-free music and sports programming to cars and homes across the country.

The world-renowned Stern is credited with revolutionizing the talk radio format. He is the No. 1 national radio host among males 18-49 years of age and ranks No. 1 in many of the 46 major markets where his show is broadcast, including New York and Los Angeles.

"It has been my dream to have the top-rated show in radio since I was five years old," said Stern. "SIRIUS -- the future of radio -- will take this dream to a whole new level as I bring my fans my show my way. It will be the best radio they will ever hear."

Known for his extremely loyal fan base and for his unequalled ability to migrate fans to other media, Stern has embarked on numerous highly successful ventures over the years while maintaining dominant ratings in his demographic. Stern has written two best-selling books -- Private Parts, which was Simon & Schuster's fastest-selling book ever, and Miss America, the fastest-selling book in publishing history. He later starred in the highly successful motion picture adaptation of Private Parts, orchestrated the fastest-selling soundtrack in motion picture history and starred in the most watched entertainment pay-per-view special of all time. "The Howard Stern Show" is E! Entertainment Television's most successful show.

"Signing Howard Stern is, without a doubt, the most exciting and transformational event in the history of radio," said Joseph P. Clayton, CEO of SIRIUS. "He is an entertainment force of unprecedented recognition and popularity in the broadcast world, who is capable of changing the face of satellite radio and generating huge numbers of subscribers for SIRIUS."

"Howard is an incredible creative and comedic icon, and we are thrilled that he chose SIRIUS to broadcast what everyone believes will be the most exciting part of his career," said Scott Greenstein, SIRIUS President of Entertainment and Sports. "There is absolutely no one like Howard Stern, and I'm excited that, for the first time, his show will be heard across the entire country as it was always meant to be heard."

The boys are back!!!

I thought these guys were suppose to be funny. They sure sound like a couple of whining crybabies to me. I see now why people call them Dopie and Aintfunny. Well at least they were able to find work.

So this is satellite radio?

Wack Pack news!!!

Sal the Stockbroker announced on the Howard Stern BB yesterday that he is going to be around for awhile. Despite some early rough waters,things seem to be going good with him at the studio. Maybe Tom Chuisano isn't such a douchebag afterall. Congratulations Sal. You and Richard Christy make a great team. Keep up the goodwork. Hey, how about some autographs for the shrine pal?

I was also recently contacted by the people that ran the whackpack shack in Las Vegas after they read my piece on Zolar. Not to go in to too much detail right now,lets just say things are really heating up--bigtime. Coming soon: a No holds barred DVD that reveals all and talks of lawsuits. Stay tuned.

In other wack pack news, Joey Boots is all excited today at the old fan site sternfannetwork. Last night on the 2003 F-Emmy show apparently he and High Pitch Eric were given F-Emmys for their pubes on the face/icy hot on the nutsack Halloween show. Not sure what category but that award was skipped over during the radio broadcast and added for this special animation show. Good luck on actually getting your award though Joey. The previous year a category was added the same way. That time Christie Wood was given an F-Emmy for most disgusting moment when she tongue kissed and made out with Beetlejuice. I notified Christie that she had won (she knew nothing about it) Unfortunately, weeks later she informed me,that despite several emails and phone calls to the show, she was never sent her award.

But that was a great show Joey and one to be very proud of. My favorite line came from Johnny Knoxville when he looked at your penis during the clipping and glueing of your pubes on your face and said. "That is either a large vagina or the world's smallest penis." Then he said it looked like a button. haha funny guy. Cogratulations Joey. I hope you get your award...well deserved.


Oh yeah!!! Say F-Jackie!!

Oh, and finally Happy Birthday to me today. Send all gifts, good wishes and comments to howardshrine@aol.com. Do you have some good Stern show gossip, rumor,announcement, or something blog worthy? Please let me know.

Where is KC? The fans speak

From the Howard Stern BB:
Scott Salem: Doc if I knew anything I would tell you sorry there's no story there. I know nothing about anything being wrong with KC
Nazi Dog: booming career in gay porn leaves no time for the show
Buster Hymen: Howard sent him to interview Ossama and ask him stupid questions
Freds Spaceship:He is in rehab.
Beeglz:His brand-new mangina is still healing.
NewLefist: I heard He was In Favor Of Bush
Everyone who Supports Bush Should be fired , Howard is Right
dave24s:he was fired for sexing a coworker. it's true
EvilJay:it's obvious a mental breakdown, he is in psy. ward.
Rocco419:I agree - he's probably been diagnosed with bipolar & is having trouble adjusting to the medication & mood swings. He's probably "resting" until he balances out.
captain winehead: I agree. Mental breakdown / treatment and/or rehab.*twitch*
Mad God: he was missing for a couple weeks before. the rumour was that he was doing a movie. belive that. or he tried to comb his hair with an axe.
you mean gambling online when he should be working? maybe. when he came back he did tell his Golden Palace story but nobody brought up a suspention or anything.i think either howard is not talking about it because
a - kc is doing a movie/project (laughable) and howard does not want to promote it and is pissed.
b- kc is in rehab/medical leave and howard is trying to protect him.
H_S1: KC has been lured by Jay Leno and is in preparation for the show, coming next week.He will be John Melendez's side kick.
Johnny_ Tamakeri :i heard KC has a huge hemroid.
Braindead223:They have Sal and Christie up front these days...
CAA: In the hospital. His boyfriend teabagged him so hard they are trying to dislodge his testicles from KC's throat.
hclager: new announcer for letterman?
jerseygirl23:i heard he got put on suspension b/c the story about him making $330,000 at GP and then loosing it was a hoax and he was getting paid by GP to promote the place
ChefJohn: I think he flew to Social to work on a real tan.
Who cares where this idiot is!! or he got a chefs job sarinading meat
crouchingtigerhiddenpenis:He's joined the LPGA Tour after reading Doc's "Ask Me Anything About Golf" thread. Ellen DeGeneres has hired K.C. as her new announcer.
Maytagfxr: he probably got arested for touching little kids
lpsodt:didn't anyone hear the show when k.c. flipped.....howard isn't going to have anyone like that around him...not to mention that is why robin sits behind glass....protection
KINGOFALLCHICAGO: angry black said kc is on vacation and on the show howard said he is on vacation, thats why sal is there.
Terror Ryzzing: He's in rehab.TheXForums.net
Howard Stern: Kc still is with the show
xsploder92: KC is in the east river
JJGittes: With his temper...he quit.
1idcat: KC is deep undercover, working for the company. That knucklehead act he puts on is part of his disguise. Right now he's either in China or N. Korea, doing very dangerous work.


From the alt fan:
Camel Toe: He's not needed since they hired Cristy & Sal ?
buzzbeercompany: Financial and mental intervention by his relatives. Again.
Cisco: More important than why he's not there is why they aren't talking about him not being there. For a show that's supposed to be so open and honest they sure do hide a lot. Maybe it would be too insensitive to reveal why KC is absent but they could at least acknowledge the fact that he's gone. Judging from the E show, Will has taken over KC's in studio duties.
richie: he's been institutionalized
and all are being sensitive to his plight ?
OR.. he ran away with jan wenner ??? take your pick


From The Howardshrine Experience:
truckinmoose: well i have a few
1- he's on the run from a bookie
2-he got stuck in a tanning bed
3- he lost it and is in jail
4- he paid off his gambling debts and can't afford the gas to get to work
5-to make ends meet he had to shoot a gay porno
The One Solo:When someone on the show steps away, lets take Artie for example, or Stuttering John, they will say, "Artie is in LA" or they will say "Stuttering John is on some reality show with B level celebrities." Anytime that is not said, it would seem that it is something of a personal and or embarassing nature. In the past, it has come out that KC has many problems, and some of those problems are mental problems. He has supposedly already taken care of his gambling problem, but I'm sure his mental problems need some work still. So he is probably in a mental hostipal, and since that is such a delicate matter, they don't want to bring that up, cause then when he returns, people talking about it, may cause the same problems to come back up. Howard seems to be very sensitive to his staffs needs, esepecially if they are series issues like mental health, and he does what he has to do to protect him. When he gets back Howard will say "So KC, how was your vaction" on the air, for the effect of misdirection, but some of us will have other ideas to what kind of vaction he really had.
Pond: whereever your at KC i wish you the best and hope to see you back on the show soon...

Thanks everyone for the respones, especially the one from the lovely Pond...my sentiments exactly. The good news is KC is still alive and well...ah...I'm not so sure about well and I'm not so sure what is going on with him and the show, but apparently you can still catch him on the comedy circuit.
