I didn’t write this excerpt. I stole it off of fb. Much of it is true to me from my perspective. I listened for years. I started in the 90s in high school. I purchased satellite radio when it was new to listen to Howard. I thought it was a good write up. I too gradually stopped listening around the start of Covid.

Nobody's been a bigger Howard Stern fan than me. Listening since he started on WNBBCCC , I was a extra in the movie Private Parts, I created a amazing group on fb Stern Facebook Superfans. I stopped listening to Howard before the pandemic, as it just wasn't fun or funny to me anymore. The show thrived on the interaction of the staff and when they started doing the show from home it lost so much of the fun . I listened and loved The Howard Stern Show and wanted to laugh and not get lectured everyday....Thank You Howard for the many years of amazing radio....
Howard Stern is DONE—and we’re celebrating.
The “King of All Media” died years ago. What’s left is a bitter, washed‑up hypocrite who hides in his Hamptons mansion lecturing the same audience that made him rich.
He went from:
Savage outsider who roasted everyone
to
Whiny, woke, overly political, celebrity‑boot‑licking sellout
He stopped being funny.
He stopped being relevant.
He became exactly what he used to mock—a soft, scared, corporate puppet.
SiriusXM flushed hundreds of millions paying for a man who turned his show into a boring woke Hollywood infomercial. He’s been phoning it in for YEARS while spitting on the working‑class fans who built his empire.
Howard Stern didn’t get canceled.
He got exposed—irrelevant, gutless, and forgotten.
