Aesop Rock Breaks Down the ‘Howard Stern Show’ Universe For Shabooty (Part 1)

Def Jux Rapper Aesop Rock Breaks Down the ‘Howard Stern Show’ Universe For Shabooty (Exclusive) Part 1.

If there was ONE website where Aesop Rock’s two-cents on the Howard Stern Show cast and characters would be that most applicable, it would be on Shabooty.com. So, I bring to you this exclusive. Aes and I both love Stern, and this discussion comes up a lot… who exactly do we love and hate? Aes took time out of his uber-hectic day to give me this run-down. It ezly made my day.

Eric the Midget - I gotta admit he is fascinating. I can’t say I love his every call, but I do think his bottled rage is awesome.

Richard Christy – Love.

Sal the Stockbroker - I like Sal a lot too. I wish him and Richard were on more these days.

I love Fred Norris and Howard Stern.

I’m down with Benji Bronk cause he does weird shit. I wish they would let him talk more, or that he could actually talk without being a weirdo, but I do like him.

Robin Quivers - I like that she’s there, but she is about as full of shit as it gets. That said, I don’t hate her like some seem too.

Artie Lange – Could leave tomorrow and it would not phase me. i think he is hurting the show majorly.

Gary Dell’Abate - Kinda douchey faux-jock guy, but tolerable. He seems to always mean well, just not exactly a ‘cool’ guy.

Jon Hein- Likable.

Steve Langford – I think his straight news delivery style is awesome on the show. That said, I’d probably have killed him by now if I worked there.

Lisa G - I can live with, they make fun of her prudeness and that’s always fun.

Jason Kaplan – He’d suck to work with, but he’s funny on the show.

Will Murray – Likable.

Ronnie the Limo Driver – I love Ronnie. I think he is so fascinating and fucking insane. It’s so great. Reallllly insane.

Shuli – Meh. Neither here nor there.

Beetlejuice – Always awesome.

John the Stutterer – Unlistenable, BUT that new guy – High Register Sean is it? Oh man, classsssic. Love that guy’s voice. but John the Stutterer makes me change the channel til he stops.

LOVE Bigfoot.

I like Underdog lady sometimes – she’s so insane.

Riley Martin is funny but occasionally I can’t deal.

Jeff the Drunk is awesome

I’m glad Siobhan isn’t on so much these days.

Yucko the Clown – Actually pretty funny.

Bob Levy – Shitty comedian, funny on the show.

Scott DePace – Despicable human

Scott the Engineer - Pretty funny, especially while riled up.

I absolutely love JD. I wish he was in the studio always. Ha.

NOTE: This is just part one meant to tickle your ass with a feather. Coming soon will be a large full-fledged version. In the longer one, you will get to read MY thoughts, along with Aesop Rock’s further in-depth analysis.

I sent Aes.Rock my reply “two-cents” on each cast member. He’s so understandably busy though, I expect him to read my list sometime next year. Just kidding, he read it.

I think AR could def take on Jimmy Kimmel for a Celeb SuperFan Trivia Game.

Stay tuned for more (Part 2) Full Feature!
