Yeah just don’t tell him that. Nobody under 32 even knows who the hell Howard actually is. And if they do have even the slightest familiarity with him, it’s due to his judging on AGT or whatever the hell. He’s become pretty irrelevant in his later years. I can’t recall the last time I heard anyone say the words “did you hear what Howard did?” or even anything close to that.

[@HuskyType]

Great job compiling all these old clips as usual! Howard is 68 years old, and likely salty that podcasters have quickly become the dominant source for long form interviews and commentary and have quickly replaced what he dominated for decades except without the scrutiny of the FCC. Podcasters have essentially made Howard obsolete and he can’t accept that it’s the evolution of radio. Much like streaming took over traditional TV, podcasting took over radio. That being said Howard lost his edge, instead of stepping over the line, he now tows it which is the exact opposite reason everyone tuned into him to begin with.

[@jezebulls]

He hates that because the separation between him and the “other” blurs more and more. He wants to be above everyone, always.

I would argue he is annoyed that it's actually the opposite. You don't have to have talent now, or drive, you just need a pre-existing relationship with someone who has a popular podcast. That's just the thing. Most of them are talentless and still succeed because of who they know. They just get in on the podcast circlejerk, then get involved in some influencer drama, and that's it, they make a career out of that, even if they literally never had a joke land in their lives. They're never driven to hone their craft and they don't drive each other to become better comedians (if they're even capable of that) , and we are subjected to endless mediocrity as a result.

The one thing I will defend Howard on is the interviews. He's damned if he does damned if he doesn't. If he asks people crazy questions and embarrasses them, it's good radio but celebs won't want to go on to be interviewed. So he has more people going on to be interviewed because he isn't ripping on them anymore. This may be an unpopular opinion but maybe Howard was funnier back in the day because there were boundaries, so they had to be creative with what they said and use innuendo. There were a lot of boundaries to push, which was exciting. Now Howard can say anything and it's not challenging. Idk. It's something I've wondered. Or maybe he just got boring. Lol!

The thing about Podcasts is that no, not just anyone can become a successful podcaster. It still takes hard work, you still need to know how to grab and hold audience, work ads into your show, and be able to plan for longevity. Which I think is why a lot of standup comedians have a successful podcasts. Yeah there's a lot of random nobodies who made it but all in all there's still a level of talent and work that goes into these things. I bet a lot of these broadcasters think people just hit a button and they have a show. It's not how that works at all.

Listening to Howard is embarassing. He so cringe it’s scary

[@traviseicher9118]

Ari's come back was GOAT. His response to Howard saying no one knows who Ari is, is Ari standing in front of a bill board of him self saying i guess Howard was right...lmoa

[@tonydiamond4118]

I grew up listening to Howard like 17 years before he move to satellite. He has turned into a husk of a human being, I inherited a lifetime subscription purchased specifically for Howard when he first moved, I let the device die and never replaced it. I listen to Skeptic Tank more than I listen to Howard which is never.

[@ShoeBoxJones_45]

Howard was at Sirius with no boss or restrictions for 10-13 years before podcast were relevant. I’m sure he ain’t mad about that. Plus, if not for Howard, podcast wouldn’t exist. He broke da barrier. Howard’s #1💯💯

Not a fan of Ari comedy and i grew up watching Howard on the E! Channel lol. So thank you Howard for interviewing the hot chicks of my time. However, i am big into podcasts and still listen to radio when i drive as well. Podcasts won Howard. Its ok man

Would love to see you make a video on the Howard vs. Jay Leno feud history

[@Likwidfox]

After Adam Carolla was fired from Howards old show, his contract had a non compete clause so he could only do a podcast from his house for free. Podcasting blew up and nobody was subscribing to Sirus or XM. I bet the suits were breathing down his neck about the 100 million they gave him for what? He also asked Carolla to go to Sirius with him and he declined which made him even more mad about podcasting.

So hilarious how Howard’s response to aris rant about him where ari says “NO ONE DOING PODCASTS WANTS TO BE A BROADCASTER”, Howard explains how they have to earn their stripes to be a broadcaster…

Howard saying if he started podcasting no one would know who is, is correct. He is a has been, who isn't relevant anymore. He's hanging to dear life to what ever he has left. Psychotic denial.

[@SoCalBusaRider]

I started listening to Howard when he arrived on KLSX all the way back in 1991 ! I became a nice fan and followed him all through the years from terrestrial radio two satellite radio. I haven't listened to him in probably 5 or 6 years...... I never thought I'd stop.... He's definitely not the same show or the man.... Wokeness and his need to be with the Hollywood elite took his life over

[@spintillimdizzy2340]

Howard is so salty and bitter lmao wdf

[@dragonlotion1789]

You bring up a great point about the complacency in podcasts, especially in this circle. I think there’s going to be a breakdown in this field, do to over saturation, similar to the 90s internet start up boom and burn out, but I don’t think we are even close to that yet…so enjoy the mediocrity for awhile.

[@Dj87887]

I personally went to an Ari Shaffir stand up special in Atlantic City in 2019 before the controversy, so I don't know how Howard can say nobody has heard of him and he doesn't do stand up. Too bad the controversy happened because the special was amazing, and I think the controversy prevented the special from going to Netflix.

I use to be a huge Stern fan. But I’ve cut him from my satellite radios bc he’s too much of a crazy leftist. Frankly his current format just isn’t funny. His show use to make me laugh out loud, now he’s Don Imus or Larry King. And he’s a bitter man for what reason? PEACE
