Crazy fun that Phil Hendrie. People who’ve never heard his show should look him up, he’s truly a one of a kind and no one will ever even try to duplicate his shtick.
I remember back when Stern was fighting to be #1 in Philadelphia back in the late 1980s / early 1990s. He was up against the #1 at the time - the Morning Zoo with John DeBella. Stern relentlessly mocked DeBella as hopelessly out of touch and mocked “Morning Zoos” as a relic of the past. He eventually won and held a massive party to celebrate, complete with song parodies and other bits that basically mocked Morning Zoos as a thing of the past and DeBella as a DJ who was a has been who should have retired a long time before. As the celebration ended with a song parody sing-along, Stern said, in what I viewed as a moment of candor, “I’m going to miss him” (meaning DeBella).
I feel the same way about Stern. I loved him in the late 1980s and into the 1990s when I listened to him. Now I enjoy the mockery of him as an out of touch has been who should have retired years ago. But I do look back a little wistfully at the loss of someone who I used to enjoy.
Still hoping that Jimmy Kimmel will soon be added to that sinking ship of fools. When it does happen that Kimmel loses his show, expect to hear Trump crow about it from Washington DC.
Sterns shows script was never that varied and now when people look for substance they note that there never was any.
He’s a nasty man. I was appalled when he was a judge on America’s Got Talent, a supposedly family-hour show that featured a fair number of child performers. They showed him palling around in the Green Room with some of the kids. Gross of AGT to make them think he was just harmless old hippie-haired uncle Howard.
