Artie Lange is definitely on fiya.
In the four months since the former Howard Stern Show sidekick has emerged from hiding, he's signed a multimillion dollar radio gig, appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman and honed his stand-up on the New York City club scene almost every night.

Back in his Howard Stern Show days, Lange's tales about his gigs at Atlantic City's Borgata Hotel and Casino were legendary--as were the drinking, drug and gambling binges that went along with them. Lange's Anti Social Comedy Tour appearance in January will be his first performance at a large scale stand up venue since his January 2010 suicide attempt by stabbing following years of struggle with heroin addiction.
No other venues have been announced for the 2012 tour, but which also featured Norton and Attell ran for months at venues nationwide.
Since his return to the public eye in July 2011, Lange has repeatedly stated that he is in active recovery and regularly attending both psychotherapy and Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.
Howard Stern has stated that he does not plan to have Lange back to the studio for an interview because he is still concerned about his former sidekick's fragile mental health.
