Mark Friggin

Mark Friggin, Shrine inductee and owner of the popular fan website www.marksfriggin.com was in the Stern studios as a guest of another Shrine inductee, the great stand-up comedian Reverend Bob Levy. Rev Bob had one of his best appearances sitting in for the news, but the funniest line came from Artie Lange when he said, "To give you an idea how much Bob drinks, when we do shows together, he does the driving." The Rev also revealed that he dyes his hair and although divorced he still lives in the basement of his wife's house. Rev shocked everyone, including Arite, when he revealed that he has been lying to his 6 year old son about the divorce even having family meals. The boy thinks mommy and daddy are still married. Time to put down the bottle and stop lying Bob. Mark making his first visit wrote about his experience for his website.


Holy crap! As I'm writing this I'm sitting in the green room up at the Howard Stern show, listening to Rev. Bob Levy sitting in during Robin's news segment. A couple of weeks back Bob asked me if I wanted to go with him when he went on the show. There was no way I could turn down that offer. I met Bob early this morning so we could drive into the city together. The trip in wasn't too bad except for the traffic going into the Lincoln tunnel. Once we got into the city Bob ended up making an apparent illegal left turn and got pulled over by the cops (New York City's Finest) who gave him a ticket for the illegal left turn. Ninety bucks!!!

Once we got to the building we headed up to the WXRK studios. Bob told me that he and Ronnie the Limo Driver would be busting each other's chops the whole time we were there. He wasn't kidding. Ronnie was giving Bob a hard time as soon as we arrived. He gave him a hard time about even being there but you could tell it was all in good fun. Ronnie had a smile on his face the whole time he was busting his chops. He even gave me a little bit of a hard time asking ''Who the hell is this fuck with you?'' It sounds harsh but I could tell he was joking around.
