Howard Stern - WNBC 1985 - Howard Cuts Soupy's Piano Wires

[TheSource00]

I love how people talk about how Howard is irrelevant, yet everytime a judge leaves one of the talent shows his name is the one that's thrown out as the replacement. Sure enough, now he'll judge America's Got Talent and give it huge ratings. If he were so irrelevant and forgotten about, he would have faded away and not gotten this opportunity. Howard's still popular, but satellite radio is also a luxury that some, if not most, can't afford.

"With your TONGUE!!" lol.... Mad Howard rules.

[MichaelHansenFUN]

Note: No wires were actually cut.

read howards book

[MichaelHansenFUN]

everybody in this picture is dead in real life except howard...

[MichaelHansenFUN]

in his book he says he did (food debris) and soupy stopped talking to him after

[judesama11]

howard is the decent looking one in this pic, the rest of them look like douches.

[Lvduggo69]

Bonesaw. I don't like robin either but that was harsh bro ! Those that wish death must dig 2 graves !

Btw. The little brother did it , not the dad. That's what I think !

[marhole100]

what up with this voice

[dakarus]

@marhole100 Its him from 1985..........

[jay19xxx]

the stench comes from the jewery in the room

[RobSmithJr]

I remember waiting through the show and missing work or a meeting or some such back in '85 just to hear if Howard actually clipped Soupy's wires.

[ratpackvegas]

So, this is Stern's idea of "entertainment" No wonder NBC fired him like he said.

[vampirehunterme]

"if I were you I would fire us" he saw it on the horizen

[Keys22765]

This was his last day on NBC wasn't it? He got fired after this.

[grungegopher]

@Keys22765 No, he was at WNBC for awhile after this. He got fired after they had "Bestiality Dial-A-Date".

[DrPoon]

I'm gonna start clipping the wires on that piano

--"Put a dead rat in it!"

lmao

[spakuloid]

This was Howard breaking all the rules - absolutely innovative and fresh. This is why he is a genius. He invented it.

[ratpackvegas]

@spakuloid Genius? I have a bridge I want to sell you LOL

[huntr7777]

@spakuloid Oh yeah right, nobody else (like Steve Dahl) was doing this before Stern. And nobody got divorced before Howard did, and nobody breathed until Howard did, etc. Give me a break. Personally I am glad he's on satellite, because every day he's off regular radio, the less relevant he becomes.

[kalpal67]

@huntr7777 steve dahl even admits he never did it like howard, he never made it outta chicago. o&a fans which i know you are like to point to dahl but its getting lame. this isn't even the stern fans go crazy for. 5 yrs later is when he found the golden mike so to speak

[huntr7777]

@kalpal67 It's a proven fact Stern listened to Dahl and stole his idea. Howard has such a small ego he cannot give anybody else credit for anything in radio. Personally I'm glad HooHoo is off regular radio because every day he is, he becomes less and less and less relevant. And you cannot argue that.

[kalpal67]

@huntr7777 how is that proven unless you have a direct feed into howards head? i respect dahl as a pioneer but he more accurately beat howard to the punch. for any fan of stern its common knowledge that his "shock jock" persona was well evident in his childhood. there are tapes not just some third hand wiki info to prove it. and to call stern irrelevant yet in the same breath praise dahl is pure comedy! dahl is a local jock stern is a national icon who heavily influenced your boys like it or not

[huntr7777]

@kalpal67 You know what makes me laugh? I Stern fan who can't wake up and admit that Stern is irrelevant today, it's like you've insulted their religion! Then they whine and cry just like Stern does about still being relevant! Hahahahahahaha loser!

[kalpal67]

@huntr7777 hes less visible sure but still more relevant than steve dahl or o&a ever will be. everytime he comes out to do something he gets big numbers. howards mark has been made on history as an icon. saying hes irrelevant is like saying letterman or leno is irrelevant. you believe howard is irrelevant thats fine but you're saying o&a or dahl is more relevant? lol

[huntr7777]

@kalpal67 Not just less visible, irrelevant to anybody who doesn't have Sirius. I am not comparing HooHoo Howie to anybody else but himself about 7 years ago, and you have to admit, he has fallen off the cultural radar since then. And every day that goes by, he's less, and less, and less relevant. Get over it.

[kalpal67]

@huntr7777 that just the sirius platform in general dude, yet he still has millions of fans, when he did piers morgan it was pier's highest rated interview 2nd to oprah. just because something isn't "mainstream doesn't make it irrelevant. anyone who listens to howard now is a fan as opposed to regular radio where non fans would also tune in. thats the only difference. larry king was "mainstream" and yet he barely broke 400,000 viewers, its all about access. subsciption vs free or semi-free

[huntr7777]

@kalpal67 Yes he has millions of listeners, but it's still about 1/6th of the people who used to listen to him on regular radio. You just can't help it that your "God" isn't nearly as popular as he used to be. Again, get over it.

[kalpal67]

@huntr7777 yeah but i just explained thats the way regular radio works. even doctor laura had 8 million listeners on regular radio now she has at most 3. sirius is a niche market. as mainstream an actor and singer jamie foxx is people have no clue what goes on at his channel. if they did he'd never go platinum. my point is yes howard has less listeners but the same amount of hardcore fans. anyone who didn't get sirius was a fair weather fan anyway. that goes for any show including o&a

[huntr7777]

@kalpal67 And if my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle...get the picture? My point (which you confirmed) is that Stern has way less listeners then he used to have, and he slips off the cultural radar more and more ever day.

[VVD]

Howard looks pretty happy in that photo.

[PerkiReport]

From Left To Right... Soup Sales, Don Imus, Howard Stern, and Wolfman Jack

[Deldrone]

Thanks for uploading.

[steveinmidtown]

Stern's voice sounds so high (?)

[Deldrone]

@steveinmidtown He's younger. This was earlier in his career, before his voice became deeper.

[superman11978]

@steveinmidtown I think that Howard used to put on a fake, comedic voice that was a bit higher. Sort of like what Seinfeld did. Seinfeld's voice is deeper now and Howard's is SUPER deep.

[pat413]

who is the pimp on the far right??

[cryptsub]

@pat413 i think that's wolfman jack

[SSJkiller]

Man... Howard runs this shit. He has authority out the ass.

[SSJkiller]

:D
