Howard Stern - Artie Lange calls in sick

[Evil Chris]

I don't listen to Howard Stern all that much but I was last week when they aired the Artie Lange prank calls to an Asian deli.

The thing is, Artie works on the Stern show, but calls in sick all the time and when he does he calls Bababooey and leaves him a message that he's not coming in. Well all those messages make a great sound board and the prank calls at the end of this are bloody hilarious. Check it out:

Listen to the whole thing... it's totally worth it.

He has packed on a few pounds since 2005. Age has not been kind.

[Evil Chris]

hahaha.... I listened to it again and laughed.
Those prank calls at the end and the way they put his voice to music are brilliant!

[Way3]

Funny one Chris

[Platinum Chris]

Yea, that one was great.

The calls were actually from back from when Artie finished up Beer League. He locked himself in his house with some meds to help him get off of Herion.

Since being of Heroin, he gained a ton of weight as eating replaced his addiction.

I haven't listened to Stern since the switch to satellite. I am considering getting a Sirius subscription though. I really miss the show.
