Hollywood sellout.

In his early years, Stern could do hysterically funny material literally nonstop for an hour with zero writing staff. The man has comedic talent.
He was hungrier in his early years to succeed = edgier, anti-social, bitter, creative, daring, funny
Privately, he was miserable, depressed, angry, etc.. The therapy helped him, but hurt the show. Mentally healthy Stern isn't the same as mentally-ill Stern.
His pretending to be a regular middle-class guy for the show when he's a multimillionaire celebrity stopped making sense to him. He didn't go Hollywood. His success made him a part of Hollywood and he finally stopped pretending to be otherwise.
Some accuse him of becoming "woke", but that was always a part of his personality. Remember when he used to have contests and gave the losers the prize anyway? Or when he was going to make fun of the homeless, but ended up helping them with an apartment, wardrobe, money and job? And when he noticed that Jessica Hahn was being pounded by reporters so he reached out and saved her life?
No one can maintain the creative momentum Stern had going indefinitely. At some point, Stern was going to change by becoming more mellow as he aged and settling down.
If you behave the same at 71 as you did at 21, then something is seriously wrong with you.
I believe major hits to the show's quality were the nonstop ads, no more bits, no more Robin's news, Jackie's departure, Stuttering John departure, deaths of great guests and wackpackers. And yes, Stern changed by becoming older and happier.
I still listen although not as much. But, I'll always be grateful to Howard for getting me pass the hard times in my life by making me laugh each morning. I'm still a fan and always will be. -

I wrote this and you obviously copied and pasted it. So maybe ur not Donna. Ur probably either Frankenfag or Vlad. Cause only they post word for word things that I have written.
Not sure how far back you had to go to find that.
But I wrote that.
And it's hysterical that you wouldnt think I recognize my own writing.
I ALWAYS do.
As I have said many times.
I dont think anyone spoke or posted before I arrived here.
Because ALL of you have simply copy and paste me and then post my own writings and try to pass them off as your own. Ie this post of mine you found and reposted

Nah! I spent an hour writing my post. If I'd known about your post, I wouldn't have bothered since we must feel similarly about Stern. I tend to defend him and Robin.
Impossible to know what you wrote in the past since your setting is private. I just checked. What do you fear? I'm showing mine, now show yours.
Anyway, I'm part of the recent exodus from moviechat. I don't do socks.
I think this site is mainly British posters which is why few write about Stern. I was hoping to listen to him live today, but the lazybones took another day off which is my reason for hanging out here. -
