The Howard Stern Show for Friday, January 4, 2013
1. Robin Quivers absent: The Howard Stern Show was without their lady love on Friday. She's been broadcasting from home since a tumor was discovered pressing on her bladder in May 2012. Friday, Stern said that she was out with a "planned absence" and gave no more details. Gary Dell'Abate and Shuli Egar sat in the studio in her place so she had someone to riff with.
2. Howard refiles lawsuit - Howard spent a good fifteen minutes railing against Sirius XM and the judge who dismissed his $300 million lawsuit.
"I wanted a day in court to explain to a jury what happened here. The judge, I know, whoever this judge was and I’ve heard things from other people that this judge gets overturned a lot…I think the judge read it peripherally and I can tell you exactly what went through the judge’s mind when she read it.”
3. Jason to quit smoking pot - Stern Show staffer Jason Kaplan admitted that he spends about $400 a month on marijuana. Howard said Jason had a problem and challenged him to stop smoking pot for a month starting immediately. Jason said he immediately started fantasizing about the half a blunt waiting for him in the ashtray at home, but agreed to the challenge. Jason won't be drug tested. He'll be on the honor system. Howard recently admitted that he stopped drinking last year himself after learning that he had a "red flag" liver test. Read the story here
