Howard Stern Show fans unleashed their unique brand of fire and brimstone on Dr. Laura Schlessinger Tuesday with a slew of prank calls laced with profanity, lewd taunts and Baba Booeys.

Hear extended audio from the Dr. Laura prank calls here
Howard Stern has been railing against the conservative talk show host, who goes by Dr. Laura, since Sirius XM started carrying her show exclusively on their Starz channel in early January. Stern has called Schlessinger everything from "a hypocrite" to "a vomit" to a few other unprintables.
Howard Stern on Dr. Laura's move to Sirius XM: 'get the f--- off my channels!'
Stern has ridiculed Dr. Laura for jumping on the Sirius XM bandwagon. In 1999, she canned her deal with CBS television after learning that Howard Stern had been hired for a slot on their Saturday night line up.

Schlessinger's show relies heavily on questions from callers asking for advice. Dr. Laura received at least 15 calls from Howard Stern Show fans during Tuesday's live broadcast which included the following comments:
From Howard Stern Show Wack Packer High-Pitch Eric:
"Do you have any t--t cream you f---ing c--t?...Howard has real fans, you have no one...Do you have any t--t cream you f---ing b---h?...Do you have t--t cream? I’m asking you a question."
From unidentified caller:
"My cat needs a kidney transplant. Do you think $15,000 is too much to spend?"
Howard Stern Show co-host Robin Quivers' cat is currently recovering from kidney transplant surgery.

From unidentified callers:
"Would you have sex with an oversized stuffed elephant? This is my third time on the show."

"I recently had a stroke and my wife keeps making fun of me and I chopped her up little pieces and stuffed her in my trunk today and I was wondering if I could bury her in your yard you c--t."
Bubba the Love Sponge fans also joined in on the fun by calling in to ask Dr. Laura for "advice" on their "frustrations":
"It frustrates me that you’re here and we don’t have Bubba the Love Sponge anymore and I’m frustrated. What do I do?"

"I’m just having a hard time understanding how Sirius gave you a show over Bubba the Love Sponge."
There was also the classic:
"BABABOOEY BABABOOEY BABABOOEY!" to which Dr. Laura replied "What does that MEAN?" To which the caller replied: "It means your’e a fucking c--t! Howard Stern rules!"
One caller started out by asking Dr. Laura a straightforward question and then slipped in the phrase "Jay Leno is the Antichrist".
Some callers took a less vulgar, more urbane approach asking Schlessinger, advising her on how to deal with the King of All Media's network of trolls:
"You don’t realize what you’ve done," said one caller with gravity. "When you open your mouth against Howard, his fans are rabid. You might just think this is an isolated day but it’s going to go on and on and on...."
Howard Stern fans have pranked major media news outlets for decades in the hopes of having one of their pranks featured on the Howard Stern Show. If past campaigns against anti-Stern celebrities are any indication Dr. Laura is in for a long and bumpy ride.
Comments
Stern and his non talents are again jealous of real radio talent. Its a shame they cant let you pick the sirius and xm channels you want and eliminate the ones you dont. Sirius Xm would really see how many subscribers really dont want Stern and then he and Lynn Samuels can ride off into the sunset together---unemployed!
wow, you are a true douche. Is it coincidence that over the 5 years Howard (that's Mr. Stern to you...) has been with Sirius that there has been a 20 MILLION subscriber increase? You can pick the channel you want, just don't tune to the ones you don't. If you don't like him, don't listen idiot.
i lol'd
High Pitch Eric is an awful representative of the show. Talk about douche chills.
Howard Stern Rules! Dr Laura sucks. She does not belong
on sattelite radio. Nobody is willing to PAY for her piece of
crap show. Howard has helped this old bag stay on the air. She
should show respect or she should shut up.
I havnt subscribed to XM for a few years, the only reason I decided to subscribe again, IS for the Dr Laura program. Howard deserves no respect, he has made a name for himself by talking about banging strippers and whatever else. Stern fans really showed how intelligent they were today, huh?
This comment is directed towards "Me"
It's funny....you say that Howard deserves no respect because of the name he's made for himself over the years. Well, I couldn't agree more!! To think, if Howard didn't come to satellite radio, where would be able to get our Dr. Laura fix? I mean, it's pretty well known that before Stern came to Sirius, satellite radio was dying. So where do you think our Dr. Laura would have gone when she decided to hang it up last year? Maybe a podcast willy or something, who knows? I'm glad there's more people out there, like yourself that feels the way I do! Hopefully tomorrow Dr. Laura's show will be back to it's normal self! :-) In the meantime, I'll leave you w/ this, "Me"....you're a cunt, fuck yourself and go step in front of a train!
I listened to today's show and was disgusted by the calls from all the Howard Stern morons that don't have a vocabulary containing words over 4 letters long. Dr. Laura handled herself with class against a demographic of barely literate, stuck in puberty, 18-35 year old unemployed women haters. A barrage of prank calls from absolute losers.. no wonder they identify with Howard. And, Howard is NOT responsible for increases in subscribership to Sirius. How myopic to think that program content dictates cultural shifts.. Or in "Stern-speak" for the illiterate fans of his... wait, nevermind, I can't stoop that low..
I only joined XM for DR. Laura..yesterday proved how uneducated and immature HS fans are. Shame on you.
Dr Laura needs to show some respect to King of all Media, and kiss the hand of the godfather who made it possible for her to be on satalite radio
Dr. $h*ithead is a lying opportunist c*nt. She has a broadcast delay as does every show on Siruis/Xm that dumb skeezer could have spared her retarded listeners the discomfort but she was happy to let the calls through. You'll notice she didn't take calls the second day, Dr. Nude model is going to have a hell of a time with a talk show that can't take callers. Dr. Stripper Skank is going to have to resort to canned calls from rings because if she opens the phones to outside calls she's going to be treated like the $2 whore she is,
There is no question Howard has made Sirius radio what it is today. He was the best investment made by almost any corporation. This made me laugh so hard. Dr. Laura is such a self righteous holier-than-thou judgmental bigot, I think it's fine if she gets knocked down a few pegs... Any one that says Howard Stern has no talent has obviously never listened to Howard Stern. There are few; if any, better interviewers in the media than Stern.
Um, no, Howard Stern has very little to do with the success of Sirius radio. He's one of about 170 programs. I can't even tell you when his show is on, and I've been a Sirius subscriber for six or seven years now. Incidentally, Stern's minions seem blind to the fact that Dr. Laura has *been* on Sirius for a long time now-- it's just that now she's *exclusive* to Sirius. But her show has been there for ages!
How many people has Howard Stern helped? How many people have bettered their lives because of his "show"? The answer is none! Dr. Laura has saved marriages, families and drug addics from destructing thier lives. Howard fans really showed how intelligent they were today, didn't they! Bunch of losers!!! Good luck in life folks!
poop.
Dr Laura is naked in pictures on the internet doing everything she tells other people not to do. How is that helping?
Its not just unemployed losers its people that appreciate good funny comedy. Forget that show its not saving shit they should save the air time and put more entertainment. If you compared Dr Laura fans to Stern fans tehre would be an astronomical amount of Stern fans and it definitely affects the business of Sirius. Why were stockbrokers so nervous before Stern signed? No one cares about Dr Laura thats just another demographic of chicks with no life whos radio subscriptions are paid for by their husbands anyways. Respect the man hes keeping Sirius in business and giving Dr Laura a decent salary.
How pathetic. I've been listening to Howard since WNBC through the Sirius years.
All of you morons engaged in vulgar prank calls are doing us a disservice. If the goal is to make Howard seem like nothing more than a base, disgusting, vile moron, and turn him off to more people who already associated him with little more than strippers and penis jokes, you've succeeded.
If the goal was to turn off even MORE listeners, you've done it.
Classic Stern feuds were always entertaining because they were framed as David and Goliath fights. Stern, a scrappy underdog, getting into a fight with another top rated DJ or celebrity at their peak. This is just lazy intimidation. It's not entertaining to any of Stern's adult fans.
Stern needs to STOP pandering to the Bubba the Love Sponge audience.
The "I see OJ" prank call was genius.
Some of Capt Janks early work was great and took some real effort.
Yelling the c-word over the phone just makes you an unoriginal, uncreative moron.
And through all the disgusting worm vile nonsense his little bitches spouted people still called in to support her and reaffirm how important she is in peoples lives. Sterns audience is completely comprised of lonely virgins who are as mangled and ugly as he is!!! FUNNY they can't see he only asked them to call bc in 4 weeks she has become the #3 most listened to show on XM!!! even after all the disgusting remarks you didn't even phase her she finished her show without a skip of a heartbeat...Howard should be scared bc unlike his skinny pasty bitch ass Dr. Laura has balls!!!
Dr. Whor-a is the queen of hate speech. She's a whiny, hateful, distasteful, shrill b**ch. Everytime I look at the naked picture of her, I think, "what must her son think?" Um... my Momma's a w*ore? I hope Whor-a keeps letting the Stern callers on her show. After all, she believes in freedom of speech. Soon, she'll be off the air. She can't take constantly getting blindsided; not knowing which calls are real and which aren't. That ol' hag can't take the pressure.
must be so nice to be safely behind a computer screen spouting nonsense and you just proved my point by admitting you look at 1970's pictures that aren't even her god how sad are you!!! and you know her son is in military special operations and I hope one day you get to ask him to his face all the questions you have but most likely you'll just curl up into a little ball and cry
Dr. Laura has been on the radio possibly longer than Mr. Stern so I think she can handle it. Free speech is more important than who insults whom better. They are just polar opposites - she challenges people to improve themselves and he challenges people to be their lowest, most disgusting selves.
We know Dr. Look At Me Naked has balls we've seen the pictures as if the protruding Adam's apple wasn't a total give away.
Get the facts straight. Dr. Laura's been on Sirius Stars for longer than Rosie has. The difference is that now Sirius/XM has the dubious distinction of *exclusivity* broadcast rights for the vile hate speech that comes from that homophobic, self-hating misogynist who abandoned Jesus as suddenly as she claimed to be "born again."
shes been on since january 1st which makes it less than 4 weeks and she never claimed to be "born again" she converted to Judaism 14yrs ago from what wikipedia says and let me guess you have something anti-semetic to say to that
I'm glad it's Dr. Laura's hetero base making these bashing calls. She can't blame teh gayz on this one.
That cunt isn't really a doctor is she?
Yea, I'd take advice from her!

I love Stern. High Pitch's call was lame. But at least her boring show is going to be funny and interesting for a change. She'll get a ratings bump for a bit. But her show is more of a wreck than ever. Now go do a whathaveyou.
The only hate speech I heard yesterday was from Mr. Stern's listeners. Her show is great. However it was shocking to hear what adult American men think of women.
Did they replay the show or use an older one?
I just beat off to those nude pics of Dr. Laura.
True story.
Long time listener. Stern must be really intimidated to sic his minions onto you. You handled it beautifully today. He thinks it's okay to spew misogynistic crap. His mother must have weaned him too young. So to all you little wankiers..bring it on!
(Semi-)long time stern fan here (11+ years). My guess is the "evolved" Stern will apologize for this tomorrow and ruin the fun. I canceled my subscription this week after 5 years, just not enjoying the show any more, especially in the year and the last few weeks :(
Ben - she's been on channel 155 for a long time now... It's the only way I've been able to listen to her because the AM reception is so bad where I live.
I used to listen to Howard; I used to listen to Tom Leykis. I've always listened to Dr. Laura. I don't live by her words of wisdom to the enth degree, but I take everything with a grain of salt..
She has a lot of good advice.. and preaches conservative values that are long-gone in this society..
I was beyond disgusted to hear some of Stern's fan calls... Sad. Pathetic. Pointless. I'd love to know how many of the callers have degrees. In reality, if they had stayed on the line, she could have helped them with their issues.
see a rational person...I stand corrected...I don't live anything close to what Dr Laura preaches, but i appreciate her charity work esp fo military families and that shes helped many people, do I agree with 50% of what she says no but like her/dislike her what happened today was beyond disgusting and ridiculous and I wouldn't be suprised if the stern employees that identified themselves find themselves out of a job
I am not all that familiar with the Howard Stern show and have no desire to be after today's display... if I were him I'd be ashamed to call those "men" my fans.
The juxtaposition of Stern's minions shouting obscenities and other insider nonsense with calls from those who credit Dr. Laura with saving their lives was pretty striking. Kinda reveals Stern's fan's (or maybe just a certain segment) for what/who they really are.
Damn I wish I knew this was going on I would have called in too! However, After Bubba announced he wasn't coming back I canceled all 3 of my subscriptions. NO BUBBA = NO SUBSCRIBERS! I love you Howie, but Bubba is my man and the real future of radio.
Grow up! That stuff was funny when I was 12. I guess maturity and a basic set of values Is what keeps me from being a Howard Stern Fan. I whole heartedly believe in freedom of speech. It's a shame that this is how it is used. No intelligent argument just childish prank calls. Wow Howard, sure you will get lots of press for all that.
What issue does he really have with DL anyway. Does he think freedom of speech is only ok if you talk about strippers and use the word Cock. So what if she is on Sirius xm.
Howard Stern is throwing a toddler like tantrum. "Poor little man doesn't want to share the radio."
Like I said in the first sentence "grow up!"
Laura is a racist cunt, and deserves every minute of this.
To be honest, I was a bit embarrassed by the quality of the prank calls. Especially Erics. I thought our listeners could have been more creative and funnier. But, to the Dr Luara audience... for years, Dr Laura has gone along taking potshots at Howard Stern with no retaliation. And now she walks into Howards domain, into his cage, and expects to be treated with respect??????? For what? Look who she defends as "Good people"...Jay Leno, Sarah Palin...I went to her website last night, full of Rightwing rhetoric. There's a Blog that says that Jesus was a Republican. She is far less "Evolved" than Howard Stern as a person. And to all those who claim she helped them, NO.. You helped yourself!! She didnt do anything but capitalize on your weakness and stupidity. Howard has helped every one of his listeners, and never took credit for it. Ask a Stern fan if Howard gets them through life... The answer will be an overwhelming yes. There have been scientific studies that people who listen to the Stern Show are happier and more well balanced than any other radio program. Thats because Howard Stern is much more qualified as a psychanalsist than Dr Phil or Dr Laura. He just doesnt go around flaunting it his listeners faces. Thank you very much Baba Booey to you all.
"Do you have any t--t cream you f---ing c--t?...Howard has real fans, you have no one...Do you have any t--t cream you f---ing b---h?...Do you have t--t cream? I’m asking you a question." ---this kind of thing, guys stuttering about chopping up their wife this is what helps you through life?! there is no blog about JESUS being a republican...and the only study out there on howard stern is that his fan base is 86% SINGLE white males btw the ages of 25-36...these are the guys who don't get married that fuel to porn industry and do nothing to further the world...want to change your life...JOIN THE ARMY maybe the can find you a pair of balls so you don't need and outside influence to get through life
Of course you have to help yourself. Nobody can change you but you. But others can give you a different way to look at things that you might never have realized on your own. I enjoy several radio & tv shows & would hate to not be able to enjoy them but I can get through my days without them. And I can be happy during the day everyday w/o ever hearing the terrible names & cursing Mr. Stern's listeners seem to prefer. If real men prefer Howard, they should stay single. What has Dr. Laura said on her show about Howard that's so bad or insulting?
I'm noticing that this story is getting zero national coverage; Could it be that's because Dr Laura has no listeners?
newflash dumbass on regular radio she actually always had double the audience of Howard Stern!!! the left won't pick it up bc it shows one of theres being disgusting and vile and the right won't bc "IT'S NOT NEWS" sterns always been low class and if anything Dr Laura will have more listeners tmrw than sterns ever had!!!
The libs who dislike Dr. Laura & want to curtail her freedom speech do not want it out that "their people" could curse and use those names about women. It would mess up their image of empowering women & people would realize they only want freedom of speech & empowerment for those that think & say things exactly as they do. Most conservatives want freedom of speech for everyone even when they disagree with what's being said.
Message to Dr Laura fans;
We dun't know nuthin, ya hear? There ain't no Mafia and there ain't no Stern Army..
It never happened,
Capish?
there isn't a howard stern army just 4 retards from his show with "nuthin" to do
Howard Stern is a douche! and his fan are most likely fat a**hole pervs who couldn't get laid if they paid prostitutes........YUCK! YUCK! YUCK! it's like I could smell your stinky fat through this comment list
