Was this the only time Crazy Cabbie was on OnA? He claims to have a Stern sex tape

[Sue Lightning]

Totally disagree. This was the biggest attack on Howard in his entire career and still has effects on his personal life. This was something that the bosses warned O&A about repeatedly when the companies merged. Howard had lawyers looking to sue O&A for harassment and all sorts of other nonsense when this first happened. Like getting restraining orders against them for his daughters and family. He also was livid for years over this. I know a few people from Sirius speculated that the real reason Opie was fired for the Roland bathroom photo was actually Stern wanting him fired over the whole 'vagina play' incident as it still upset him. And so if O&A ever crossed the line the bosses would fire them as Howard's people were running the company by then. Everyone remembers this one from both camps.

This was easily the biggest shot fired between both Stern and O&A. This hurt Stern more than his gag orders hurt O&A and probably more than even Anthony and Opie being fired by Sirius hurt. This also allegedly caused a massive rift between Howard's daughter and him and possibly another one of his daughters. O&A got involved in his personal life in a way that he never imagined could be possible by basically turning his children again him. It was also heavily rumored that Howard didn't even know that his daughter was involved in this play and that O&A were the ones who broke the news to him. Which was hilarious.

I will admit i was confused on the timeline. In 2004, Anthony went on a rant about how fuckable his daughter was and a month later the first gag order was issued. Then 3 years later the play was played and not even a month later another gag order came. I always assumed it was the jingleball shit that got them the second gag order.

I would almost guarantee that them playing the 'vagina' play audio and ripping on Stern got under Howard's skin more than anything from anyone in his entire life. When the two companies merged Howard immediately had O&A put under another gag order and cease and desist type clause so that they could not use his audio. Ever wonder why Stern was never Jocktobered? O&A were not legally allowed to play his audio. They almost got suspended for playing audio of him talking about adopting kittens once after the merger and management and lawyers called them into the office to remind them of the rules.

I don’t disagree with this, but more so question it. O&A played Stern audio MANY times after the merger and the gag order. Between the Play gag order and the merger, O&A played audio of Howie on Letterman, his CBS lawsuit, audio of him inventing he claimed the merger, even his wife on the View. After the merger? They played audio of him on the red carpet of Sex and the City, the Kitten audio, Howard on his show talking about how there was no one to fight anymore, they even revealed Marci Turk for those who weren’t aware. I think it speaks more so that there was a SPECIFIC gag order on what they could do with Stern rather than a cover all bases “don’t talk about him at all.”

Howard was always terrified of O&A. Hence the gag orders and refusing to allow CBS to put the shows head to head in any market. But this was basically something that went beyond radio battles in a way that Howard never imagined would have been possible.

This is like a fourth hand source. Beigefrequency relays audio from a Howard interview where someone asks Howard if the gag orders were true. He confirms it is. When the interviewer asks him if this is hypocritical, Stern answers forebadem: “Maybe. But who cares? I win.”

Nothing has ever made Howard look worse than his gag orders and lawyers when it comes to the radio wars and him being this edgy jock.

I don’t know if you’re being literal but to me Howard looks way worse in what he is now over what he did back then. Theres nothing more insulting than playing an anti-corporate guy for 20 years then giving all that up and saying you’ve never said “nigger” before.

It wasn't about Stern's reputation about his job really. It was that Stern's daughter got drunk and it caused every single person in the entire radio division to be put under NDAs and gag orders to be thrown about like they were involved in war crimes. It showed the extreme control freak Howard was over his career yet he didn't give a shit about any of his own daughters. O&A highlighted the hypocrisy and 'Mr. Free Speech' Stern immediately got his lawyers and the suits to start firing out cease and desist letters.

Nothing has ever made Howard look worse than his gag orders and lawyers when it comes to the radio wars and him being this edgy jock.

Agreed on every point as always but it still was wrong for them to go after his daughter. But hey, above all else real. That’s why I still listen to them everyday.

 

[HeyItsVos]

I liked how much shit he talked before fighting Stuttering John only to demonstrate he didn't have a lick of fighting ability come the big boxing event. I would have assumed the fat fuck would at least understand how to throw a punch, but he literally just waddled into John and was seemingly baffled why the ref made him back off.

I think it’s partly because Cabbie had just “won” against Angry Black in a boxing match and John is a doughy piece of shit

 

[BonnieMcFarlaneMe2]

It just never really made sense to me. Is the play embarrassing (for her) ? Yeah. Radio material and being used as a weapon against her dad? Not really. What does it prove? That Howard is a shit broadcaster? A bad father? Not at all. It just proves his daughter was in a bad play. Howard was the faggot here for actually getting embarrassed over her doing it. Maybe she was really into the play and her faggot father tells her to stop because its hurting his reputation. Once again, Howard is always put first and the most important.

I hate to get moral but to me it was wrong. There was nothing wrong with the play and it had no connection to Stern or the radio war. The Jingle Ball thing makes slightly more sense - It showed Howard as a bad father and Howard himself was never off limits talking about what bad fathers other jocks were.

I might be conflating two instances but didn’t she get naked and a listener yelled, “put your clothes back on, bitch!”

 

[BonnieMcFarlaneMe2]

How did they misquote the greaseman? Ill hang up the blower now.

He just said something along the lines of, “hey, that’s radio for ya. If you step over a line you get fired.”

I was out of my mind back then, Robin hoo hoo. Plus he’d wind up Billy West and Gilbert to scream the n word constantly. It’s funny that West became the most prominent voice actor of all time after leaving the show. Billy never struck me as a racist but rather an autistic guy who just cared about being funny.

 

[Riccardo Bosi]

Also don’t forget the time they invented Dice shitting on Opies dead father which NEVER FUCKING HAPPENED.

I swear, they misinterpreted Howard - while Dice was on his show - making fun of Mancow's dead dad for mocking Opie's dead dad.

 

[THE D]

Where we at with the Wack Packers getting on O&A? Remember High Pitch Eric's bomb threat? Lol

 

[LingerLonger]

They played audio of him on the red carpet of Sex and the City, the Kitten audio, Howard on his show talking about how there was no one to fight anymore, they even revealed Marci Turk for those who weren’t aware.

All of the audio they played was from sources other than Sirius to get around the gag orders. They played stuff from HBO's red carpet interviews, things from Letterman on CBS, and then stuff that Beth released of Howard talking about kittens. But none of it came from Sirius. They could play any other show on Sirius like goofing on Elvis Radio for an hour no problem. But were not allowed to play any Stern audio from his channels.

This was not just because Stern was deeply afraid of them but also because he didn't want a repeat of the time they took over Scott Farrel's show on his channel and then played the audio back on their show to goof on everyone. One of the reasons Stern stopped messing with O&A was that they would hit him back ten times harder. Stern once after the merger said that O&A were failures and Opie made a list of things to get under Howard's skin and showed them to management and Howard stopped bothering O&A until Anthony was fired basically.

O&A got cease and desist letters from other radio shows after Jocktobers and had lawsuits from other random sources like Roy Den Hollander who sued so that his interviews could never be replayed.

I think it speaks more so that there was a SPECIFIC gag order on what they could do with Stern rather than a cover all bases “don’t talk about him at all.”

They were not supposed to mention him ever. They started mentioning him under the name 'radio edit' and got another gag order that was even more broad than the first one. Every aspect of Stern's show and life was controlled in his contract including what other jocks on the stations he shared could say about him.

This is like a fourth hand source. Beigefrequency relays audio from a Howard interview where someone asks Howard if the gag orders were true. He confirms it is. When the interviewer asks him if this is hypocritical, Stern answers forebadem: “Maybe. But who cares? I win.”

He lost in the end because the gag orders became public. If they never became public it would look like O&A were pussies who backed down. But the truth is that Howard was a huge coward who was afraid of O&A to the point where he basically begged CBS to keep O&A off of the air after Sex for Sam because he thought that if they returned to the air in mornings they would take away his ratings. Howard ended up looking like a little bitch because needed millions of dollars in lawyers and agents to attack O&A behind the scenes but all it amounted to was a few years of relief before the floodgates opened.

Yeah I never really listened to Howard's "response" to this, and I don't have kids so I couldn't possibly know as a parent blah blah blah but the "my vagina" play seemed weak to me. If she was doing a porn, or an arthouse sex film, or even some shit like Johnny Depp's daughter new show then yeah I could see Howard being ashamed. But she was playing a Madonna-like delusional character, right?

Hindsight is 20/20 but brush it off. Say your daughter is a talented actress and her performance was good enough to trick those two idiots. Oh wow she said vagina on stage, it's like a couple of teenage boys giggling throughout The Vagina Monologues.

Some of the viewer edits were rough. Even Patrice was smart enough to sit it out. Didn't Howie make some big misguided stink about "the director said he wouldn't promote it and he lied!" to give reason to talk about it on-air? At the end of the day, Howard had enough acting chops to star in Private Parts, while O&A had zero acting talent and Norton had less-than-zero acting talent. So who gives a shit if Emily is doing shitty regional theater?

I don't think it's that they played the audio so much as that his daughter's voice and likeness becomes fodder for his enemies and the sort of stuff they were saying about her that got to him. It's not like they just played the audio once and loffed. They used it as a sound drop while talking about pussy and had talked shit about the other daughter going back to when she OD'd in 2000.

Howard went after people's families all the time. O&A hit a nerve with stupid because he always knew he was cursed from doing the porn radio that he got 3 daughters in a row.

 

[THE D]

I was pretty shocked to find out they misquoted the Greaseman and did like 5 hours trashing him. Waddle doodle. I think Stern’s daughter’s play did embarrass him because he immediately made her stop once it hit the press. I do really think that going after her was scummy as fuck and Patrice was right to shut up during that show which was probably a first.

How did they misquote the greaseman? Ill hang up the blower now.

He just said something along the lines of, “hey, that’s radio for ya. If you step over a line you get fired.”

This still pisses me off. If anything Grease was sticking up for O&A and they acted like he violated the code of silence.

It was basically softcore porno level acting. She would moan and grab her tits and vagina on stage and scream about kabala and jews and other nonsense. It was some of the worst writing ever. The character was some dumb bimbo who was told by her rabbi if she got naked the messiah would appear so she takes off all of her clothes. So she was naked on stage.

The director, some kike, told her that she would act under a stage name to avoid her father knowing. But he was telling everyone that Stern's daughter was getting nude in his play. Which is how O&A learned of it before Howard even did. Eventually the guy just told every newspaper it was Stern's daughter and used her to promote the play so Howard's lawyers stepped in and got his daughter out of the play. This same daughter now is an orthodox rabbi or some religious guru.

Ehh but you know how trolling works. When you let them know you're upset, when you go on-air all pissed off to talk about it, the boys are just gonna keep using that.

I mean I look at the situation from Emily's POV. How good or bad of an actress she was, or how badly it was written is irrelevant. If you want to be taken seriously as an actress, you need to take "serious" roles, build a resume, build connections within the industry.

Basically she tried to start her career as an actress, and daddy shut it down because he didn't want his enemies having sound bytes. Point to any legitimate actress and you can probably find a nude scene of theirs, if not a role that involves sexuality. Hell my girl Jenna turned 18 and her first movie was playing a porn star who sucked big black dick. That's even in today's #MeToo Hollywood, not the Harvey Weinstein era where if you wanted to be a star, get those titties out.

At a certain point it's her life not his, and maybe she was too untalented an actress to ever make it big. But you're a laughing stock if daddy needs his lawyers to sue you from not doing a play anymore. You don't fuck with your kid's dreams because you can't stand the other radio shows saying mean things.

And yeah, leaning into the "Howard Stern's daughter" angle would probably get you more attention, but don't promote that and sell more tickets! Wow, some skeezy off-broadway director who writes plays with female nudity isn't Captain Trustworthy. If you want to be a public figure, you have to deal with the consequences of that instead of being sheltered and protected by Howie's legal team.

 

[LingerLonger]

Basically she tried to start her career as an actress.

That was not it. She was a maniac level jew. Into like kabalah worship and goddesses and all sorts of other nonsense. She is some type of rabbi now. She got into the play because she wanted to promote the kabalah not actually promote herself or be an actress. It was never about an acting career for her. It was about exploring her jew religion in some bizarre way.

 

[EraGodless]

The sheer autism in this thread is truly impressive.

Some of ya'll niggas know more about O&A and Howard Stern than the shock jocks and people who worked with/for them.
