It's not fun. It's not funny.

His era of the stern show was not for me. Like a preschool Rodney Dangerfield.. I can’t believe he held out for a bigger payday, that’s insane.

Artie just sitting there being fat and sarcastic was miles funnier.

Jackie's life was always good content though. The guy got drunk at a party and tried to throw a US Senator in a swimming pool. He was always doing crazy shit they would talk about on air.

What's the story with the Senator? I've heard of most of his antics but not that one

u/-JackTheRipster- 1d ago

I forget some of the details but it was at a party Howard threw. Jackie thought it would be funny to throw Senator D'Ammato (Republican from NY) into a swimming pool. He started chasing him around while laughing hysterically; people had to intervene.

I'm pretty sure it was the same party Jackie stuck his thumb in a guys asshole and then went back to eating ribs.

No the thumb thing was at one of the Superbowl parties.

You just fell for the oldest trick in the book there, Senator.

Lololol Jackie stories were always the best. Do you remember the year this happened?

He went on Star Search and lost. I still cannot get over that one. I know full-blown cokeheads with better decision making skills.

Then tried to call up Tom two months after he quit and said "OK yeah I'll take that last deal." What a fucking moron.

Dude got millions a year to show up to work drunk and hit a commercial button, and somehow thought he was the heart of the show. Kinda strange.

The fact that Jackie didn't have a single solid job offer from ANYWHERE else in the industry should've been a big hint that he should have kept his ass in that seat and kept cashing the paychecks. No matter what the dollar amount was.

I love how Jackie could get relentlessly goofed and not even care. He would rarely defend himself and often join in.

He was a good sport mostly

For all the drinking and drugs Jackie has done, for him to age and look like Joe Biden is actually decent.

Jackie was never really into the drugs other than pot and I think he quit drinking soon after he quit the show. Even when he was a full-blown alcoholic he still had a way better body than Howard, which pissed Howard off to no end.

Don't know what this has to do with Howard Stern. Surely this should be admired on its own merit.

u/gulag_123456 1d ago

It reminds me of the Weekly World News. Same kind of layout/font that they used for the cover.

u/MatBlack4Ever 1d ago

Who's more legit Bat boy or Jackie?

u/gulag_123456 1d ago

Imagine Jackie's jokes coming out of Bat Boy.

Why do women have smaller feet than men?

u/Hitzjeff Goo Fa You Goo Fa You 1d ago

Exhibit A - why none of the current staffers are allowed to mention Stern's name in any of their own side projects.

The funniest thing is the ad design, haha. Good lord, what were we thinking back then. We must have been out of our minds

Jackie not so subtlety trying to hide that beer gut.

u/No_Factor215 1d ago

This is probably a dumb question but whatever. Who or what started the “f Jackie” thing and why?

u/ManoftheHour777 1d ago

He should do a modern one with Artie, Opie and Anthony Cum Taster on it.
