    One of the things in my pitch letter is that SiriusXM has 25 million subscribers. Conservatively, we have a third of that, more than "Today" and "Good Morning America" combined.


    I can't fathom why anyone would believe this shit...did not the AGT failure prove anything????

    I wonder who knows where most of the proverbial bodies are buried - Baba, Ralph or Laura.

    That's the rustling sound of money changing hands. Looks like "Billboard" has become the same kind of commercial $hill as most of those doctor "interview" informercials promoting technological breathroughs promising to increase your libido while purging your arthritis..

    The sad thing is that since Sirius doesn't release their numbers, many people do believe that.

    And AGT does prove him right. It had about 8 million viewers this season and all of them were Howard's fans.

    Baba knows from a professional standpoint. Ralph or Laura know from a personal side.

    But do you really think all Howard's radio listeners would watch AGT. Most of his audience is male, they are not gonna watch that even if Howard is on it. Especially after you watch it once and see what a douche he is on it.

    Stern as a great interviewer and booking A-list guests? The one true thing in the article is that Gary said they'll replay the interview ten times a week. Too bad Mr. Show Biz didn't tell them how he passed on George Carlin back in the day or his secrets to booking Tan Mom for multiple appearances.

    What are you saying? Howard's eight million listeners followed him to AGT in force. The entire AGT audience left when Piers Morgan left. Without Howard, the only people who would be watching AGT would be Mariah Carey and Howie Mandel's mother. That's it.

    Shouldn't Bababooey state that he just tapped into the Sirius guest pool that for some stupid reason they weren't prior to this "All In" strategy? Did he mention that O&A must have a similar audience because they get 90% of the same guests that the Stern Show books?

    Guests have to pay now to get on the show. Anybody wiling to hand over cash to money grubbing wiggy gets on now. Poor Gary has been sent out to beg for marbles.

    I love this response:

    Translation: "Originally we wanted to do a roast of Howard, but then realized that so many topics would be off limit that it would be the worst roast in roast history. So we decided to make it like a 'Kennedy Center Honors Howard' because Howard likes it when famous people suck up to him."

    They used Howard's birthday as an excuse to launch the pranking of Sirius Revolution 3.0!

    Yes, and exactly which A-lister has Booey gotten who was NOT already there on a standard SiriusXM interview rotation among many channels?

    this might be the BIGGEST PIECE OF BULLSHIT EVER spoken by Wiggy's camp. if they have that size audience why are cougar.com and freshballs (with new product 1wipe charlie's) their biggest sponsors. Wiggy would give Hitler a run for his money in the propaganda department.
