Mixed Marriage: When One Spouse Listens to Howard Stern and the Other Doesn’t

This was fascinating topic on yesterday’s Wrap Up Show. Gary mentioned that he calls these “mixed marriages” when one listens and the other doesn’t and in this case they were talking to woman who listened who had husband’s that didn’t. Hey, that’s me! Was the first time I ever really considered calling into the show.

Women Who Listen To Howard Stern Show

I am definitely in a mixed marriage! Aside from the fact that my husband is Jewish and I am not… just like the real future Mrs Stern.. :-) . I am a Howard Stern fan and husband is not.
I am an avid fan- I think I may even be a super fan. What exactly is the definition of a Howard Stern Super Fan?
I don’t think I have missed show since 2004 and before that an ongoing listener, By a show I mean the WHOLE show. There may be an easier way but I have radio capture on my PC and capture Ali the shows. If I miss a show I listen until I am caught up. Listen to the show in my car while driving kids around.. listen as I go to sleep and first the in the morning. Monday morning is my favourite time to wake up early and tune in to Howard Stern show.

How Often Do You Listen to Howard Stern Show?

When I start to think about it I m shocked- I listen about 4 hours a day. That’s is A LOT of time spent devoted to Howard Stern.
When you factor in that my husband is NOT a fan or listener is it even more odd. He doesn’t hate Howard but a long time ago in the 90′s he was really turned off by a show he did and was offended.
he doesn’t look down at me at all but he will look at me strangely if I have on in the a=car when we are together and I am laughing m hysterically when Howard interupts Eric the Midget and I try and explain why it is funny that Howard is picking on this wheelchair bound 40 obs guy with serious health issues.

Listening to calls on the wrap Up Show yesterday from woman in same position I think we seem to like the show for the same reason and dislike the same things. I also enjoy the time when they are just talking and catching up, having fights or busting balls.
I also love Howard interviews- he is fabulous.
I don’t hate but I do tune out any of the sybian porn star stuff. I will admit that I LOATHE most Sal and Richard gay stuff.
Sal makes me crazy. He REALLY hates woman. I feel very sorry for the poor kids who have to live with those two (Sal and Christine)

Curious what others think- especially women in “mixed” marriage. How much do you listen to show? Are you a super fan? What parts do you like/dislike?
I do not have any good friends that listen to Howard and it has become kind of a “closet” thing that only my good friends know.
I get very weird looks at La Leche League meetings if I mention my Howard obsession. One thing I may have in common with Victoria Zdrok :-)

When Is Howard Back From Vacation?

Howard and the gang are on vacation for the next 2 weeks. They will return Jul4 14, 2008.
I don’t mind when so much when they go for a week of vacation time it does give me a chance to ge caught up on the shows and my blog a bit- but 2 weeks is a LONG time to not have anything fresh.

All kinds of interesting stuff seems to happen when they are away usually and I look forward to their take on things.

I think they will be replaying the History of Howard Stern next week and that was very well done. Not sure if they will have any new material.
Dying to here how Artie will do in over seas with the troops.
I am fast becoming big Artie Lange fan. he reminds me SO much of my first husband.. who crashed and burned. A great talent and a terriffc guy that just imploded. I love Artie but feeling is bittersweet- he brings up so many feelings of pain in me.

I suppose if I think on some level if Arie makes it then maybe my former husband will be all right one day, too.

Alanis Morissette Plays Live and Dishes (some) Dirt on Howard Stern

I don’t know why but I found this interview very irritating. I REALLY want to like Alanis Morissette but she is just .. flaky.
I am Canadian and have been a huge fan of her music from the beginning. . Her personality is a bit coy and like she is trying too hard to be mysterious and all knowing. It SOUNDS like she has been to shrink 5 days a week ( she admitted this to Howard on the show). She has to be messed up. Is it only the super rich that need this much therapy? I am not sure this is something I would be proud of…
Still can’t get over she was head over heels in love with Dave Coullier.
( of Full House Tv show- yes the one with Olsen twins , John Stamos and Bob Saget) . He is quite possibly the most irritating character on tv- ever. One of my kids watches Full House in re-runs and he is like nails on a chalkboard.
STUNNED he inspired such great music. The song, “You Oughta Know” from Jagged Little Pill is in fact inspired by the break up of Alanis Morissette and Dave Coulier confirmed by Alanis Morissette today on Howard’s show. BLECH.

Did you forget about me, Mr. Duplicity?
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face
How quickly I was replaced
And are you thinking of me when you fuck her?

You can listen to the song below as well as “Hand in My Pocket” also a “Dave Coulier” song and a Ryan Reynolds song, from her new album.

I wish I never knew any of this.

Also another Artie connection for him Alanis. He revealed he worked on Mad TV with the woman Dave Coulier left Alanis for.. then with Ryan Reynolds in Toronto on Dirty Work and – Bob Saget directed Dirty Work and starred on Full house with Dave Coulier.

Poor Alanis- her last boyfriend , Ryan Reynolds left her last year for the perfect Scarlet Johansson, but as Howard pointed out Scarlet is only 23 and will eventually dump him. GOOD!

Charlie Murphy on Howard Stern Show

I hate to introduce him this way- he must get so sick of it- buy Charlie Murphy is a comic AND brother of Eddie Murphy. He was quit open about it and didn’t seem annoyed at all on today’s; Howard Stern show where he discussed his time with Dave Chappelle and what he think he happened – did Dave Chappelle have a nervous breakdown? Charlie refused to speculate an thought maybe he just anted out and wanted to spend quality time with his kids.

Charlie Murphy made several references to kids, being a comedian and not seeing your kids, never being home, etc and he did nto say it in a way that made me think he liked it. Got the impression he didn’t like life on the road and was missing family life. ( Maybe he should spend some time with Sal)

Was an okay interview= not sure if he would have been without the Eddie Murphy connection , tho.
