Truth about the years-younger woman who has broken Howard Stern… nothing can save this pathetic man now: MAUREEN CALLAHAN

by

Howard, it seems, is refusing to meet his end.

Following several difficult weeks during which Howard Stern denied reports of his dismissal from SiriusXM and pledged to come back on the air this coming Tuesday for an explanation – unfortunately, Howard failed to appear.

Initially, there were rumors about him having a pressing family matter, later hinted to be related to the health concerns of his elderly mother who is 97 years old and seems to worry Stern greatly at his age.

Or

The first news suggested a ‘family emergency’, and it was then subtly suggested that Stern, 71, was anxious about his mother’s, aged 97, health condition.

Both versions convey the intended meaning while maintaining the simplicity and readability of the original sentence.

Later in the day, The Daily Mail published a report stating that Stern unexpectedly emailed his team of 95 members on Labor Day night, announcing that he wouldn’t return to work the following day, ending the show without prior notice.

It’s been revealed that his team, who have been uncertain about their future since August when SiriusXM announced they wanted Howard off board, found out over Labor Day weekend – the irony! – that their high-profile boss, whose current contract is valued at $500 million, has decided to halt plans for his anticipated comeback and will reach out… presumably soon?

As the festive season nears, it appears that his former high-salary employer’s team members are preoccupied with job security and income uncertainty, yet this issue seems less pressing to him.

In the late hours of Tuesday afternoon, it was revealed that Stern had not returned to work due to the passing of one of his beloved cats.

Is he sure that cat didn’t also eat his homework?

Even if true, it’s a lame excuse.

As a fervent lifestyle enthusiast, I’ve had the privilege of caring for numerous cats over the years – hundreds, perhaps even thousands – ever since my union with my lovely wife Beth who is eighteen years my junior. It’s hard to imagine that someone like myself, known for my devotion to these furry friends, has never experienced the loss of a cat before. If the situation arises where I find myself unable to share such news, it may be due to the deep emotional bond I share with each one of them and the potential impact on my life’s work and legacy. This scenario might seem unbelievable to some, but it merely highlights the profound connection that can exist between a cat lover and their feline companions.

According to a source, Howard declined to return due to dissatisfaction with the ongoing contract negotiations, as the company appears to want him gone.

Oh, it’s heartbreaking and rather disheartening to witness such an unpolished move, especially when I, as one of the faithful fans, was eagerly waiting for what was supposed to be a triumphant comeback. It’s just unfortunate that this unexpected move occurred hours before the anticipated return, given that his reported daily listeners have dwindled from a staggering 20 million to a mere 125,000.

One wonders just who is guiding and advising Stern — much less agenting him.

Has there been someone new hired as a genuine successor for Don Buchwald, his veteran agent who passed away in July at the age of 88?

It was Buchwald, after all, who negotiated Stern’s half-billion-dollar deal.

In an interview with the New York Times in 2018, Stern expressed that it’s important for everyone to have someone like Don Buchwald in their life. He emphasized that he wouldn’t want to live without him, and doesn’t necessarily need anyone else besides him.

In a conversation with the New York Times in 2018, Stern stated that having someone similar to Don Buchwald is essential for everyone. He stressed his desire to never be separated from him and expressed that he doesn’t require anyone else but him.

It’s challenging to picture Buchwald tolerating Stern’s erratic behavior since August, especially after the Daily Mail revealed that Stern had been unexpectedly caught off guard by the news – contradicting a show insider’s subsequent claim that it was all part of a planned scheme to generate excitement for his September comeback.

According to the source, they are frantically working on spreading the word about this thing, hoping it will become popular and increase his following as he returns. Apparently, his current numbers are very low, leaving them at a loss for ideas.

In a manner reminiscent of Stephen Colbert’s style, his team, comprising a substantial workforce of 200 individuals, struggled to create and broadcast a show. Despite their efforts, the show reported significant financial losses totaling in millions. Consequently, CBS executives decided it was necessary to terminate the program.

In a similar vein, Colbert, much like Stern, became highly socially conscious. They seemed to lose sight of their comedic roles, believing they could persuade the nation that Trump resembled Hitler, that the Covid vaccine was becoming a national religion, and that a Kamala Harris victory was essential to preserve democracy.

The result? Audiences fled in droves, never to return.

According to another authority, critics of this former shock jock will likely receive an unexpected surprise upon his return to the airwaves. By that time, it is expected that Howard Stern has already secured a new contract, marking the beginning of a new phase in his career.

Please. All this chaos points to one scenario: SiriusXM has buried this overpaid dinosaur.

The team favors insights into the future through podcasts and investing in less expensive, younger talents like Alex Cooper, the host of ‘Call Her Daddy’, who’s said to have secured a deal worth $125 million with the network. However, it seems that Howard Stern doesn’t seem to appreciate her.

Indeed, it seems highly unlikely. She’s relatively inexperienced, dealing with topics like sex and celebrity gossip, which are more familiar to him. What might be especially irritating for him is that she’s female.

In August, a source revealed that Howard’s life has been significantly disrupted, as this vibrant, youthful woman is making waves in the industry. Interestingly enough, it’s Howard who finds her annoying and can’t stand the fact that she’s becoming a major figure. Efforts are made to keep these two apart when she visits New York.

Howard Stern — cowed by a 30-year-old sex podcaster!

The earlier assertion from an insider seems to hold weight, suggesting that after Stern’s contract ends this fall, Sirius may extend an offer to him; however, they are not keen for him to accept it due to disagreements over the compensation he desires. It appears that the investment no longer seems viable given these financial differences.

Indeed, Howard, much like Meghan Markle, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Anna Wintour, is resisting the advice from business and society that suggests their relevance has waned. They each believe they continue to contribute significantly to their respective fields and don’t see the need for retirement or fading away.

In fact, we’ll be better than ever. So please. Just go.

However, it seems that Stern’s pride wouldn’t let him accept this point, leading him to promise a broadcast the day after Labor Day. Regrettably, he broke the confidence placed in him by his declining audience, effectively ending the broadcast and leaving.

Just so you know, getting back to his chair for the live broadcast essentially means Howard Stern just got up from bed in one of his luxurious mansions and strolled to a cutting-edge, home-based satellite studio.

Hardly the commute of the working class, for whom he was once a hero.

Now Stern swears he’ll be back next week, for real this time.

Who would ever believe him?
