How to get Sirius Radio / Howard Stern on your iPhone

Comedy Central President Doug Herzog says Howard refuses to be roasted

Howard Stern is just one of the potential big-name roastees the network has repeatedly chased with no success, Herzog said. "They say, 'We're gonna do our own,' and then they never do it," he said of Stern's handlers.

ARTIE VS. THE HACK PACK

Beth says they are building house in Hamptons

Beth Ostrosky, Howard Stern's fiancee, tells Hamptons magazine that they love the Hamptons so much that they're building a house there.

"The summer after Howard and I met, we started coming out to the Hamptons," Ostrosky tells the magazine, which comes out Friday. "That's just been our thing every summer since then. That's our joy; it's what we look forward to all winter. That's why we decided to build there. This is going to be our home; it's the place we love best."

They love it so much, says Ostrosky, that Stern may even retire there after he's off satellite radio in a few years.

"The ultimate dream is to live happily ever after in the Hamptons," she says.

Ostrosky is not only an actress, but spokeswoman for Port Washington-based North Shore Animal League. In the cover story, she talks about how she and Stern like to play with their dog, Bianca, go out with friends Billy and Katie Lee Joel, eat out at Della Femina and other local restaurants and relax at the beach.

She says she and Stern will marry sometime next year in the Hamptons.

"When I look back at my relationship with Howard, the most special times all come back to the Hamptons," she says. "When we first came out here for a weekend, we really fell in love ... The calmest time in our lives is when we are here."

State of the Shrine Address!!

Traffic to the Shrine continues to climb in leaps and bounds with our numbers doubling last month from previous months...and all without the help from the Stern show unlike our rival family, Sternfannetwork.com. Despite our little recognition from the show, the Shrine message board continues to grow little by little, and one of our broadcasters, Nicklehood, in cooperation with Mutt from SFN, is currently being groomed for an appearance on the Super Fan Roundtable show.

We reported a few weeks ago that there were talks of someone very high up on the Stern ladder pitching the Shrine book to Howard's agent, Don Buchwald, to hopefully publish the Greatest fan book tribute to Howard and the show, but unfortunately there was a misunderstanding on that and we are back to square one in that regards.

I have no intention of ever publishing this magnificent book without the involvement,input,and/or blessing from the King himself so like I mention in the introduction of the book, this book will either be embraced by Howard and bought by thousands of fans and I can build my own Summer home in the Hamptons, or it is just going to be seen by a few people from the show and a few fans. I have sent about 10 books to Stern show staff. Scott Salem is the latest person who I sent a copy to who has failed to take the time to even thank me. I thought Scott would be the first since he was whining that no one sends him anything. No such luck. Wahh no one thanked me wahh.

If you have Don Buchwald's ear, or Howard's ear or Judith Regan's ear....put them in a jar of formaldehyde and send them to Doc at.....just kidding. Please spread the word that this would be an awesome book for TRUE FANS OF STERN everywhere with the right people involved.

Speaking of SFN and Mutt, with all the high volume of members,advertisers, their own show, and support from Howard and the channels, Mutt makes it sound like he is not making that much on his "little message board" as he put it last night on the roundtable. Well, with our small numbers, our few advertisers, having no show, and no support from the show, the money keeps rolling,rolling, rolling in.

Is it possible that the Howardshrine family is more profitable than the SFN family?


I posted an interview with Mary Carey this week in honor of her appearance on the show and I took a look at when that was done. I was shocked to see that I have been doing that column for over 5 and a half years. How time flies when you are having fun. Big thanks as always to Dean from deansplanet.com for giving me that opportunity and hanging in there with me when much of Sterndom was down on me because of a few pranks, but primarily because of my brutal honesty. We have worked on dozens of articles, worked on the book together, and have chatted online almost daily since that first article, and I have yet to meet the man or speak to him on the phone. Great guy. Rumor has it that he will have an ongoing segment on the Billy Mira show coming soon to Sirius. Congrats bro and good luck with that. You deserve it all.

This may be my last blog entry for awhile. My wife, and family are taking a short break this coming week to the beach so I don't think I will be updating this blog very much, if at all this week. Please don't burn our house down while we are gone haters. Registration is closed at the Shrine until we return. Dean will continue to update this blog with Stern related items so be sure and check back for his contributions, and we will see you on the rebound my homies.

Thanks again for your support and bababooey to ya'll.

Blast from the Past: My Interview with Mary Carey by Doc





Mary and her mom Judy

Doc: Why did you laugh so much on the show?
Mary: I laughed because I thought the whole situation was very funny. Seeing my mom and Gary together was just too much. Even the camera crew was laughing. It's not that I was laughing at her to be mean, I just thought it was so funny. The things that my mom was saying were too much. Meanwhile, Gary had no clue what was going on except that I was cute. Anyone there in person would have been rolling on the floor with laughter too. My mom was really excited to be on TV.

Doc: On the show you said that your SAT score was 1110. Is that true?
Mary: Yes. I got a 610 verbal and 500 math. I was going to major in dance at FSU but had to move home after one semester to take care of my grandmother. I am actually in my 4th year of college as a theater major, although I am only taking one class this semester because I travel so much, it is hard to do schoolwork, too.

Doc: Do people recognize you in public?
Mary: Yes, all the time. Especially after Howard Stern. That show gives great exposure. Everyone always asks me if that was really my mom and grandmother. I'm like " Hello, she looks just like me." My mom even has people ask her for her autograph. She tells all her friends that she is a big "star". It is so funny

From the Howardshrine Mailbag: Blog reader feedback

Doc
It's been a while since I checked your site out but I see nothing changed. There's good ol' Chaunce on the first page. You must have a reason for promoting this bore but it has nothing to do with Howard. Then I see you are trying to use Hi Pitch in your war with Langford. Hi Pitch probably should not have been promoted. It swelled his ego, which has led to many documented delusional disasters.that will not seem so funny if something really bad happens. Don't know if Langford lied or
not but I doubt Eric's neighbors are very happy living next to him. Would you like living next to a apartment that from all accounts is a hell hole? He needs assistance but not the kind that allows him to threaten murders in print. Maybe it's good for a laugh but in the end we could have another suicide or worse.


Jasper


PS . Right now Eric is about threatening murder, various scams, and avoiding eviction. Those of you who created and continue to perpetuate High Pitch as a celebrity bear some responsibility when the inevitable happens and things get really ugly.

Interview with Artie Lange in Vegas

Q: I thought you have one of those jobs you don't leave?
A: Yes. But I've been there 7 years. I didn't get into comedy to have a regular job like everyone else. I hate routines. But the show is so good, that made me stay all this time. But after 7 years, it's the schedule. It's not the show. I mean, I love the show. I love Howard. But with this schedule sometimes I feel like I am on the edge of madness. I feel like I can't do this anymore. I can't keep a routine. I have to just go do whatever I want do for a few months.

Q: I won't pretend I know you beyond our interviews. But it seems without that show to get up for each day, with your habits, you might lose it. Doesn't doing whatever you want for a few months sound dangerous to you?
A: Yeah, I know. But I don't know. I just don't like a schedule.

Q: Have you at least managed to stay off heroin and other nasty drugs?
A: Yeah, I haven't done anything strong in two years.

Q: Are you still wildly single these days?
A: Yeah!

Q: Still gambling lots?
A: I always gamble. But I stopped gambling with a bookie. I used to have a steady bookie and that was scary to do with a phone call. I still gamble a lot at the tables in Atlantic City and always in Vegas.

Howard Stern ruins "lunch" for show guest Kimberly Williams

From Page 6

July 24, 2007 -- KIMBERLY Williams, the June 2007 Penthouse Pet, has never met football legend Marcus Allen - and she wants to keep it that way. After talking on the phone for a few weeks, "he seemed like a really nice guy. But . . . I quickly found out that this is not a guy I want to know," the pin-up told Steppin' Out magazine's Chauncé Hayden. Kimberly was creeped out that Allen is a regular at the Playboy Mansion, and that his MySpace page is filled with girlfriends thanking him for "lunch." "So I started to pull away from him just to protect myself. But he calls me over 15 times a day! . . . He started to send me these terrible text messages. 'Where the hell are you, Kimberly!' . . . It's really scary . . . Things got really bad after I did the Howard Stern show. He got very upset that I got nude on the show. Hello! I'm a Penthouse Pet . . . I told him he needed to calm down . . . But he got even angrier." Allen's lawyer, Larry Stein, told Page Six: "It's the other way around. She's the one pursuing him. She started sending him pictures of herself with no clothes on. She's trying to get publicity."

Proof that Steve Langford is a liar by High Pitch Eric

From www.stevelangfordswrong.com :



Another day, another inaccurate report by Steve Langford according to High Pitch Eric. Steve reported on High Pitch being evicted and mentioned a letter written by his neighbors. Turns out, according to High Pitch, that Steve's comments were a lie. You mean Steve Langford lies in his stories? Duh. Thanks Eric for exposing Steve once again. Langford sucks Howard. Get rid of him.


High Pitch Eric:

Proof Steve Langford is a liar

I have proof Steve Langford is a liar he said that neighbors in my building wrote a note about me thats not true I am going to make a statement here Steve Langford think before you do a story what you said in your news report that my neighbors left a note in the garbage room, about me was not true its a fucking lie I have proof this letter has been in the garbage room for the last year so get your fucking story straight........




What some of the Super fans are saying about this latest Steve Langford fuck up.

Dirty South:

If this is, in fact, the sign that Steve Langford was referencing in some of his reports, he is definitely guilty of poor journalism as it relates to this instance.

This sign was directed at the thrower of the "unpeed bananna," not hi pitch.

His reports made it sound like a hi pitch call-out sign.


DestroVega:

Does Langford ever get a story straight?... clean your apartment dude.

Ultra Warrior:

Wouldn't know about THIS story but for sure all that Sanjaya & American Idol conspiracy stories he was doing daily sure as fuck was made up bullshit.

Doc,

I too can attest to the fact that the Jackie Puppet made it to Sirius. I was on the SFRT in December of 06 and was fortunate enough to take a tour of the studio. As I looked around, I specifically pointed out to some of the other people with me "Oh shit, there's the Jackie Puppet!!". It was on the shelf as mentioned by your other source...

I can confirm Jackie Puppet made it to Sirius by slitlopes

slitlopes:

I can confirm Jackie Puppet made it to Sirius

Last year, I was fortunate to do the SuperFan round table, it was either in Late February or early March of 2006, after we did the show, Jason Kaplan offered a studio tour to Me, Mutt and another fan, The tour was short but one thing I specfically seeing was the Jackie Puppet, it was sitting on one of the shelves on the Bar in the new studio next to the Gary puppet and the mini Howard Stern doll,
now that was a little more than a year ago, anything could have happened since then, the only thing I thought was weird was that I heard the Howard100 news report, and Gary was saying that it may have been missing during the move from krock, well I can absolutely confirm that it did indeed make it to the new Sirius Studios.
So Gary doesnt need to waste time thinking about the time frame before they moved from Krock to Sirius.

The Jackie Puppet was in the new Sirius Studio as late as march of 2006.

My theory is that maybe with all the added sybian pads, that maybe someone moved the Jackie Puppet off from the bar, to make room whoever decorates the bar in Howard's studio should know something.

Mark Friggin interviewed by Yahoo

It's impossible to measure true fandom. The Web is rife with obsessed fans. But on the spectrum of fandom, few measure up to the devotion displayed by Mark Mercer.

Mark's a super fan of Howard Stern. While that's not unique in and of itself, Mr. Mercer takes his love of the Stern show to a higher ground. His detailed daily recaps of the show cover the minutiae for Stern fans who can't listen to the entire 5 hour show every day. No stripper, joke, or bodily function passes through the studio without remark—and Mark's been typing up his recaps on the Web for over 10 years.

Stern is a polarizing figure, but even if you don't care for Howard's humor, you should appreciate Mark's dedication to the show that has taken over his life. We chatted with Mark in the evening, long after his day had started before sunrise—as it does each and every weekday morning when he flips on his radio...

Hey Mark, walk us through your daily routine—what do you do to bring Stern fans recaps day in, day out?

I get up at 5:20 a.m., shower, and start up the Sirius radio. I have it connected to an FM transmitter so I can tune in on any regular radio in the house.

I sit on my couch with my laptop by about 5:50 a.m. and open up the programs I use every morning.

As soon as the show starts, I'm typing away like a mad man. I'll do spell checks and a little bit of editing during the commercial breaks. Grab some food, hit the bathroom, stuff like that.

As soon as the show ends, I've pretty much completed my editing and I have the files uploaded to my site within about 5 minutes of the show ending.

What inspired you to start recapping the show?

I had created a site that featured some audio clips and games based on the Stern show back in '96. That just wasn't enough, so I just started throwing in a couple of sentences to let the fans know what happened on the show that day. I'm not even sure exactly what inspired me to do it other than just having nothing better to do while at my job.

When did you start listening to the show?

In 1988, I just ran across the show accidentally while flipping through the stations.

And you've listened religiously since then?

Yes, I started as a casual listener but it wasn't long before I had to hear every second of every show.

Can you explain what it is about the show that you love?

At this point, it's almost like I feel closer to them than my own family. I spend more time listening to the show than I do with anyone else. I love the fact that they make me laugh every single day. I also love hearing about their lives. There's never a moment that I even consider turning off the radio, and that's not just because I have to write about it. I never get bored. I get sick of everything eventually, but not the Stern show. I've been listening for almost 20 years now and I don't want it to end.

It's one thing to be an avid listener and a super fan, but what's inspired you to do daily recaps on the Web for over 10 years?

The feedback from the fans is what has kept me going. I get such positive feedback.

So when you first started the site, how many visitors did you have per day?

Hmm...good question. I can't remember the numbers back then but it couldn't have been more than a couple hundred people a week.

How many visitors do you get nowadays?

These days it's between 10-15,000 people a day. Last year around this time it was up to around 20,000 a day. It's actually dropped off over the past year.

That's odd. What's the reason? Fans not listening?

I think that's part of it. I also think that a lot of hard core fans who have to know all the details of the show just went out and bought Sirius so they don't have to visit my site as often. That's what I like to believe, anyway.

Do you enjoy the show more or less since the move to Sirius?

I'd have to say more. I know some people don't like it now that Howard doesn't have the FCC pressure on him but I think that's made the show much more free flowing. No worries about the dump button being hit or anything like that.

Do Stern staffers still use your site as a resource for historical info on the show?

Yeah, from what I've been told, the guys at Howard TV still use it and so do the guys in the offices there at the Stern show. I've been told they can find stuff faster using my site than they can in their own logs.

Does that make you proud?

Yes, and it shocks me because I never expected anything like that. I had no idea anyone would ever be searching through something I wrote for research on the Stern show.

Have they ever asked you to be on the air as a guest or for a bit?

Nah, not on the Stern show. I've been on the Superfan Roundtable a couple of times though. I'm not much of a personality. And i don't mind if they don't want me on the show.

Where would you be without the Web?

Oh wow, I'd probably still be at my car dealership job shoved in some hole of an office doing warranty claims.

The Web was made for dedicated souls like you...

Yeah, made for me for sure. I'm very lucky to have fallen into all of this stuff.

We're lucky to have fans with dedication like you! Thanks Mark!

BREAKING NEWS: Bigfoot attempts suicide it is.

Here is what Shrine 100 news knows so far:

Howard 100 News reports exclusively that the beloved Wack Packer Bigfoot has attempted suicide and is currently in an intensive care unit in Vermont. This shocking report comes on the heels of recent revelations that Bigfoot has been battling severe depression. Howard 100 News reporter Lisa G uncovers that Bigfoot is expected to make a full recovery after he swallowed a large quantity of pills. The newest addition to the Wack Pack also attempted to cut his own throat but was stopped by a friend. Stay tuned to Howard 100 News all day for full reports.


Sal called bigfoot to record a segment & his friend Lynn answered instead. Lynn said he tried to commit suicide last night. He was popping pills/prescription meds & tried to cut his own throat with a knife. His caretaker Carl took the knife away from him & called an ambulance. Lynn said he would be "fine".

Can't find a place to live, but Lynn lets him stay there as long as he wants to. His ex-girlfriend Melanie is treating him badly. His manager isn't paying him for Howard-related stuff.

Last winter bigfoot also tried to OD on pills over a girl he was dating at the time.


---

We have contacted Bigfoot's manager and we will let you know what we learn when we learn it it is.




(update at 3:45 and you heard it here first from Shrine 100 News. from his manager:

"he is out of the hospital thats all i can say for now thanks for your concern"


(Update)

According to our sources, Howard 100 News finally learned that Bigfoot is out of the hospital and contacted him by phone. Here is what Shrine 100 news has just learned.

Big foot took 153 pills, stomach pumped, couldn't get into a homeless shelter, fired his manager, and his girlfriend Melanie admitted she is a whore and she made him miserable. People in Vermont are treating him like shit...He has a new manager and will not be commiting suicide again..Will be looking for a new apartment starting monday

10 years ago this week: Me Howard, you "Jane"...pay up

From www.thesmokinggun.com:


When Howard Stern hammered out this $1.5 million deal to appear in the movie "Jane," he made one thing perfectly clear: "The hair personnel shall be first priority to Artist." That's one of the highlights of this agreement, filed recently in the Los Angeles Superior Court action brought by the DJ against the film's producers. The picture, which was to feature Stern opposite Melanie Griffith, was shelved last year when its financing collapsed. But Stern wants the $1.5 million promised him in this document. Along with provisions for his billing, hair & makeup, and travel, The Smoking Gun loves Howie's decree that, "No other cast member shall receive a more favorable trailer or amenities." Also, if we were Ralph Cirella, Stern's loyal man-servant, we'd be a bit pissed for only rating coach accomodations when the "hair person" scores business class. (5 pages)

From the Howardshrine Mailbag: The Rev "I beat my dick" Levy vs. Dez "I beat my dick" Reed

Shrine 100 News contacted Dez Reed yesterday to see how things went with his shows with Rev Bob Levy. Two comedians who both claim they are the original writer of the joke: "I beat my dick like it owes me money."

Doc: How did the shows with Levy go? Did the I beat my dick joke come up at all?
Just curious. I was thinking of calling into the miserble men show Sunday night and asking about it. thanks



Dez Reed: Yes it did. As expected Levy, Shuli and I got along very well.
Expecially Levy and I. There was non stop debauchery from the minute I picked Bob and Shuli up at the hotel. I think by the time they left, they were happy
to go. Not because it wasn't fun but because it was maybe too much fun.

I told him about the joke and there was no problem whatsoever.

We both still claim authorship, but out of mutual respect neither did it on the show together.

I still believe I have the stronger claim but that aside. Bob said that it wouldn't have been Chappelle that stole the joke but his "writers".

In any case I slammed Lisa Lampenelli as hard as I could, not physically of course, I'm not black and I have taste.

We're still in the middle of the festival so I won't have time to call in until next week.

Talk to you later.

Doc drops his very first successful Shrine bomb and continues to make progress in bringing peace between the SFN and Howardshrine families

Making only his third call ever into Sirius shows,yours truly dropped an excellent Shrine bomb on the Larry Flick show. Who is Larry Flick you ask? He is the big fag on the Out Q channel who does a fag show every fruity morning. Yesterday morning he had fellow fruit Joey Boots on to talk about sports. Nah, they werent' talking about sports, that was a joke, they were talking about you guessed it, gay stuff, and about Joey recently coming out of the closet. Being a big Joey Boots fan I just had to give it a try and I was lucky to be the first caller, one of only three they took I believe in the 30 minute interview.

Here is the call:

Listen here

I was also going to mention about Joey's premature ejaculation problem but the big fag cut me off. He didn't like my suggestion.

I was having trouble finding the audio to this historic call so I contacted someone who I knew would have it: The man himself, Joey Boots. Joey and I as many of you know had a falling out over a t-shirt several years ago and my old friend pretty much cut me off from any direct contact as we waged our little war on the message boards, and this blog.

I have tried to make peace over the years behind the scenes and yesterday for the first time in years, Joey actually emailed me back.

From the Howardshrine mailbag:

Doc:

In a message dated 7/13/2007 6:02:27 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, Howardshrine writes:
you got the audio from today's show. I gots to hear my excellent call again.

Joey Boots:

great call......the "have him suck on a penis/dildo" suggestion was brilliant and unfortunately they passed on it......i was hoping they would have had some cute guys up there for me to be tested on.......here is the file and oh yeah fuck you ya douchebag.

I have been trying to take it easy on SFN, Mutt, and Boots in this blog. I even had a nice chat with Mutt on the phone the other day about having one of our Shrine bomber, the legendary Nicklehood sit in on the roundtable. Things seem to be calming down between me, Boots, and Mutt and I welcome that. Ironically, this all is happening just as Mutt and Boots are tearing each other apart on SFN over the recent
question posed there "Is Mutt a Stern show celebrity and if so who is the bigger star, Mutt or Joey Boots. Tip of the hat to my friend Langfordsucks from www.stevelangfordsucks.com for that one.

Hopefully, they will work things out. Hopefully, we all can, and do what we from the Howardshrine family have been saying for years: UNITE!!!!!

Howard may retire to the Hamptons in a few years says gal pal Beth Ostrosky

Beth Ostrosky, Howard Stern's fiancee, tells Hamptons magazine that they love the Hamptons so much that they're building a house there.

"The summer after Howard and I met, we started coming out to the Hamptons," Ostrosky tells the magazine, which comes out Friday. "That's just been our thing every summer since then. That's our joy; it's what we look forward to all winter. That's why we decided to build there. This is going to be our home; it's the place we love best."

They love it so much, says Ostrosky, that Stern may even retire there after he's off satellite radio in a few years.
"The ultimate dream is to live happily ever after in the Hamptons," she says.

Ostrosky is not only an actress, but spokeswoman for Port Washington-based North Shore Animal League. In the cover story, she talks about how she and Stern like to play with their dog, Bianca, go out with friends Billy and Katie Lee Joel, eat out at Della Femina and other local restaurants and relax at the beach.

She says she and Stern will marry sometime next year in the Hamptons.

"When I look back at my relationship with Howard, the most special times all come back to the Hamptons," she says. "When we first came out here for a weekend, we really fell in love ... The calmest time in our lives is when we are here."

Trouble in "Super" fan Roundtable Paradise: Joey Boots vs Mutt

This is what Shrine 100 News knows so far.

1. Mutt scheduled Irish John to be on the roundtable
2. Joey Boots decides to boycott the show because he doesn't want to be on the same panel as Irish John.
3. Joey Boots writes Howard 100 News and Tim Sabean about it
4. Mutt and Joey Boots exchange words. Mutt can't understand why Joey Boots doesn't want to be on the show.
5. Doc shakes his head and thinks back to when Mutt said he would not do the show if he was on the panel. Irony? Things that make you go hmmm....


Mutt:

BOOTS BOYCOTT
- This weeks show was supposed to be Joey Boots vs Irish John, mano a mano. Why the feud? What will it take to make it stop? Does anyone other than Joey care? Unfortunately despite our plans, Joey said the he refuses to come in. What do you think of his decision to skip this weeks show? If he's going to be a weekly regular, is it right to skip a show just becasue he doesn't like a guest?
- Joey contacted the Howard 100 News and Sirius executives to tell them his opinions about my decision to have Irish John on todays show. Why does he get so worked up about this?

i didn't need to orchestrate a fight, you can't help yourself. hell, you were yelling at all of us about Irish John before the show even started last week. Especially towards Maryanne. I wanted the 2 of you on the air together. would have been great and maybe we could have finally gotten this nonsense behind us instead of every time his name comes up you threatening me with some sort of you need to choose between me & him crap. it's like dealing with a 13 year old girl.

you should have just come in and done the show. instead you once again are making a big deal about irish john. why don't you write Tim Sabean another email about it or talk to the Howard 100 News about how I'm screwing you over again.

Boots:

why dont you have your girlfriend kim call the miserable men show on the hotline when they are talking about "flirting...is it cheating" and have her state, " well as the wife of a STERN SHOW celebrity myself I find that flirting is cheating".......yes she really said that but you know that because you were right there with her.......if only you knew the goofing of you and her that is going on........need i go on with more? this can get real ugly. happy wave

The REAL origin of the joke "I beat my dick like it owed me money." revealed

I was hanging out at Cabbie's website when I brought up the topic of Reverend Bob Levy whining again about that whole Dave Chappelle stole my joke, I'm not a hack bullshit, and a member by the name of AssPussyBaby11 made this comment:
---

AssPussyBaby11:

Back to Levy....

If I understood correctly the rev was pissed that chapelle stole his line, "I'm gonna beat my dick like it owes me money". Does anyone know when he claims he came up with this gem? I was just watching "Comedy at Club 54" on the comedy network (Canada) taped back in 1990-1992, and lo and behold, there's a comedian on there talking about jerkin' off, and he has the line, "I beat my dick like it owes me money".

So, whose joke is it?
(Is there even such a thing as an original new joke?)
----

Interesting. I checked out the website mentioned www.thecomedynetwork.ca, did some investigative reporting and found the comedian who told that infamous joke way back when.

His name is Dez Reed. I emailed Dez to see if he knew the origin of the joke. Here is what he had to say.


Dez Reed:

Hi;

I am not interested in a feud with the Reverend Bob Levy as he may soon become yet another comedy friend, since he is appearing July 9 through 11 at the Great Plains comedy festival in Saskatoon.

I would love to discuss the origins of this or any other joke.

The Comedy at Club 54 in question was taped I believe in '93 or '94.

At this time, I had never heard of Dave Chappelle or Bob Levy, nor had I seen them work.

The old rule in showbusiness is that the first to get it on tv wins. That makes me as I understand it the official owner of this joke. Many have done this joke
many of times, I maintain that I wrote it along with the follow-up I beat my dick like it is an Iraqi prisoner which is on my CD, Lisa Lampenelli did this version on the Artie roast. My CD was taped in '05. In '06 I toured the US and sold hundreds of this cd with that joke on it, then about a year later it ends up coming out of Lisa Lampenelli's mouth on the Stern show. It sickens me.

I just spoke with my agent out in LA who is familiar with Bob Levy, Chapelle, Lampenelli, myself and the joke in question.

He has been in the business 25 yrs or more and maintains that the joke was coined by me and was first broadcast by me on television.

In 1991 when I began doing this joke I had not been anywhere near a firehall in Jersey to have heard The Rev do it, I don't believe Chapelle or Lampenelli were even comedians at the time.

It is not unusual for big city comedians to rip off heartland comedians (especially from another country) because they assume we will just keep doing our "cute little shows" in bumfuck towns and never be heard of.

Unfortunately for them, I was good enough to get on television and for that show to be syndicated worldwide. I can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that I was doing that joke long before Chapelle and Lampenelli therefore they are officialy joke thieves.

I will defend the ownership of this joke, but not at the expense of a new friendship.


Thank you for the opportunity.

How I spent my Summer vacation by Doc

The first day of my Summer vacation: I went downtown to look for a job....

For several years now, despite what people say, I have been banned from only ONE Stern fan message board, the granddaddy of them all, Sternfannetwork,free to post on all the others without restriction. That has all changed. I was banned from three other boards this week, and not so much from what I said on those boards but from what I wrote here in this blog.

The first person to drop the axe on Shrine 100 News was Cabbie from www.cabbietv.com. Cabbie reacted to a blog entry arising out of an email from one of our readers. The email informed us of the availibilty of court documents from Cabbie's tax case, and also supplied the court documents in guestion. Cabbie felt as a friend I should have asked him first if it was cool to post the documents, and I was banned. After suggesting to Cabbie that his ban was exactly the same reason Mutt from SFN banned me, for posting the truth, he lifted the ban. (Mutt didn't like my interview with pornstar Zana. Her account of her time with High Pitch Eric and his differed greatly to say the least, and he banned both me and Dean from deansplanet.com for hosting the article)


Cabbie:

come play............i still think it was shit the u put them up.............

and i will never help or defend you again....

but i'm not and never will be mutt.............






Sunday of this week we saw another board ban me for something posted in this blog. www.sternplanet.com did not like me pointing out possible copyright issue activities they allegedly are engaged in, namely offering a very extensive file sharing forum to members with over 50 posts. I have known about this forum for quite some time and have commented about it in the past. When I did, I was asked by the owner of the board to remove those comments. I complied. Last week when members of that board were posting my personal information including social security number, and the owner and mods after several bad report notifications refused to remove the information, I decided to revisit that subject..................and I was banned for it. You won't find that blog entry here. Someone who works for the company whose content was being stolen asked me to remove the information so people would not discover the place and participate......and I did.



Finally, Rocky Rubber Room, The Sim's home board banned me last night. The owner, Rocky Balboner seems like an ok guy but his mods seem to be the ones who have a boner for me. The mods are a few of the Trolls that ruined Howard's board, then ruined Sternchat before making their home at Rocky's. I never really posted there much since they don't talk much about the Show, but when I did make topics there, they were usually deleted by the troll mods. Perhaps the troll mods heard about my blog about the other Sternchat splinter board, sternplanet and seized the opportunity to ban me for a few harmless posts. One of their lady regulars had recently passed away, and one member posted that he felt bad because he wanted to get into her panties. I commented back that that should be a whole lot easier now. This comment apparently didn't sit well with the troll mods who banned me for, you guessed it, for trolling. Freedom of speech? Nah....not at that place either.



Well, there is always the Shrine were we offer more freedom of speech and expression then any Stern fan message board in Sterndom. Total number of members banned this year from the Shrine: ZERO!!

There is also my new SFN account that just got Full Member status. Hmm... "Joey Boots eats the pussy??" nah...The brutal truth is always why I am banned so that probably isn't going to work. Joey likes the cock you know. Stay tuned.

From the Howardshrine Mailbag: Cabbie exposed smoking gun style

Hey Now, Sante,
I am a researcher for a law firm and a big stern fan and i thought you would like this--it is Cabbie's sentencing memorandum in his tax evasion case, filed by his lawyer in 2005 before the sentencing hearing. It reveals Cabbie's actual mental diagnosis by his psychiatrist, and also states that Cabbie was prosecuted for passing two bad checks in Fayetteville, NC (which is near Fort Bragg, the army base--maybe it is where cabbie was stationed in 1993 and 1994 when the bad checks were passed). It also says cabbie committed tax evasion because of his mental illness, not because of anything Howard did, unlike what Cabbie says today. I thought you might like to have this because you are following the Cabbie situation and this puts a different light on things--passing bad checks is not cool, and blaming howard is not cool, when it's the mental illness at fault, not Howard. I got this from the federal court website called PACER, it is a PDF file I downloaded from Cabbie's docket page--most of the documents filed in his case are downloadable, but this is the most revealing i think. I hope you like it, and i like your site because you get the inside dope!
Let me know what you think?
Thanks and Go Howardshrine!

Anonymous Superfan

PS: Just FYI, I should have mentioned that the "PSR" referred to is Cabbie's Pre-Sentencing Report"--this is a report about his prior criminal record, his mental evaluation, his drug and alcohol evaluation--it is prepared by the federal probation department, which performs the evaluations and collects the prior record info and sends a PSR to the sentencing judge so he can have all the facts in his hands, in this case it was Judge John Gleeson. Cabbie was also allowed to submit info to the probation department, that is how his psychiatrist's letter got mentioned, it must have been submitted by Cabbie and his lawyer to the probation department.
And also, the diagnosis mentioned is/was "a combination of mental problems" which is not very specific, but the psychiatrist's letter probably went into more detail--however that letter itself is confidential and is kept by the Judge and by the probation department in a separate file--it is not part of the official court record available in PACER.
-----

Excerpts from the pdf:


Dear Judge Gleeson:
Lee Anthony Mroszak, the above-named defendant, has retained the Law Offices of
Dominic A. Barbara and the undersigned, Peter J. Tomao, Esq., to represent him in connection with his sentencing by Your Honor in the above-referenced case. At our request the Court adjourned his sentencing to May 13, 2005 at 2:00 pm. This letter addresses the issues raised at his last appearance before Your Honor which was on March 25, 2005. As Your Honor will recall, the Court adjourned Mr. Mroszak’s sentencing on his pleas of guilty to three counts of failure to file income tax returns in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7203, Class A Misdemeanors, to permit the defendant through his prior counsel to respond to the issues raised by Your Honor, the Probation Department and the government. The principal issue was the discrepancy between the amount of income reflected on the tax returns which Mr. Mroszak
filed prior to his plea and his admissions to the IRS, the Probation Department and the Court. In addition, Your Honor raised questions regarding whether Mr. Mroszak had been advised that the sentences on the three misdemeanor counts would run concurrent or consecutive and the status of some unresolved warrants in North Carolina.

THE TAX RETURNS
The government’s letters and the Addendum to the Pre Sentencing Investigative Report
revealed the discrepancies between Lee Morszak’s admissions in his plea allocution and affidavit to the IRS and the returns he sent to the IRS prior to his plea. According to the government, these returns fail to reflect two specific items totaling approximately $130,000 in additional income (See Government’s Letter dated March 29, 2005). We have reviewed the returns filed by our client with the government and determined that Mr. Mroszak, in fact, did not include income on his 2002 return relating to the two specific items noted by the government. These are the proceeds from an exhibition boxing match and the value of an automobile. The government advised us that they were not aware of any other omissions. After consulting with both the government and a new accountant, we determined that both of these items should have been reported on Mr. Mroszak’s 2002 return. The 2000 and 2001 returns did not require any modification. At our direction, the accountant prepared an amended 2002 return reflecting these items. We are sending a copy of that return to the government under separate cover for their comment. We expect that by the date of sentencing, we will have resolved any remaining issues regarding Mr. Mroszak’s return. The prosecutor advised us that if our client files an amended return prior to sentencing reflecting these two items, which he will do, the government will not oppose restoring the three level reduction for acceptance of responsibility for Sentencing Guidelines purposes. See U.S.S.G. § 3E1.1. The Court should grant Lee Mroszak the three point reduction. He never contested the government’s calculations. As the Court is aware, after he was contacted by the IRS, Mr. Mroszak cooperated fully with the investigating agents and admitted that he had received the check from the boxing match and the automobile, along with other income and that he had not filed his tax returns for the years under investigation, 2000 through 2002. He signed an affidavit prepared by the IRS admitting to these facts. He thereafter retained a certified public accountant
to prepare his income tax returns for the years under investigation, which he filed with the IRS prior to entering his guilty plea. In his plea allocution, Lee Mroszak again admitted to the income as determined by the IRS investigation. After his plea, the government learned that two specific items were not reflected on his returns and brought this discrepancy to the attention of Mr. Mroszak’s attorney at the time. However, as the PSR indicates, that attorney never provided the government with an explanation for the discrepancy. (PSR ¶14). When Mr. Mroszak appeared before Your Honor, his then attorney attempted to dismiss the discrepancy as the result of dealing with “approximate amounts.” (Transcript of March 25, 2005 at 9
