I grew up in high school listening to Imus (Anus in the morning). But the bits he was doing in the seventies never changed. Then Stern came to NY in the early eighties. It changed the landscape of radio. It was entertaining. You never knew what could or would happen.
The same holds true today. Sure all those words we'd *never* say are said. But if you have a chance to listen when he interviews someone, especially a "name," you realize how good he is. Whether Ron Howard or Francis Ford Coppola they become great interviews. Stern pulls stuff out of people that they are surprised that they talk about.
Who else would think A) Have a TG Mistress Beauty Pageant and B) pull it off. Didja know one of the girls said Tiger was "larger" than Michael Jordan or was fabulous in bed (they all said that). Sorry, that as Stern would say: is Radio Gold.
Plus on Satellite Radio there are few if any commercials. I can barely stand listening to terrestrial radio these days.

). More to the story but not for public consumption. Buy me a drink and I'll tell more. Also played "Death Trivia" (answer: Mama Cass Elliot choked on a sandwich), "Guess Who's the Jew" and I think another one (might have been D-A-D). Won a Smiler's Salami and a Steve Perry album (it was a give away because the cover had a notch in it). Yeah, I *guess* you could say I was a fan.
