View Full Version : Has Bubba & Brent been burning too many bridges with Sirius/Stern/Bubba regulars...
mkriss5681 06-29-2007, 08:45 AM I love Bubba but I think he might be going a little crazy with the contract negotiations. He is starting fights with Bob Leevy, Yucko, Joey Boots, Jason Ellis, Akira, Artie (to an extent), Lasker and others. I think it might be time he calmed down a bit.
EnigmaChrysalis 06-29-2007, 08:59 AM As long as he doesn't start any heat w/ SIRIUS Management, the rest of those guys are incidental.
Money will heal all wounds. Besides, the feuds make for radio gold!

I'm just worried its gonna hurt him in the contract negotiation, besides I think over all burning bridges is bad for the show.
Tom from T.O. 06-29-2007, 09:16 AM Dee Snyder was Bubba's worst attack, he savaged Dee. Dee came on his show after as a guest. Ronnie caught some Bubba heat, he was at Bubbs's wedding. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
The only guys Bubba truly hates are the Clear Channel assholes that almost ruined his career for good. And maybe O & A....
Mahatma Gonad 06-29-2007, 09:30 AM I'm just worried its gonna hurt him in the contract negotiation, besides I think over all burning bridges is bad for the show.
I don't know. I think so long as Bubba isn't being a dick to management he should be OK regardless of whether he throws grenades at the wack-packers.
Bubba is beginning to sound a bit irritated. He better stay calm before he creates a "We" vs. "They" environment. He needs to think about Manson, Spice and the rest of his crew before he starts to fire off on management.
mkriss5681 06-29-2007, 09:58 AM I personally think Bubba overreacted with the Jason Ellis thing. Ellis is just marking out to Bubba for the most part. Kinda like the Yucko thing he is missing the point.
I personally think Bubba overrated with the Jason Ellis thing. Ellis is just marking out to Bubba for the most part. Kinda like the Yucko thing he is missing the point.
If you listened to Ellis' show on Faction last night (Thursday), he was putting a funny perspective on the whole thing.
mkriss5681 06-29-2007, 10:17 AM If you listened to Ellis' show on Faction last night (Thursday), he was putting a funny perspective on the whole thing.
Yeah I think Jason is really funny and was a great guest on Bubbas show. That rant the did about rollerbladers was hilarious. I'd hate to see him not on the show anymore.
mkriss5681 06-29-2007, 10:17 AM I also kinda miss Tucker. I hope he comes back too.
RedN'Dirty 06-29-2007, 10:23 AM I also kinda miss Tucker. I hope he comes back too.
So what exactly happened with Tucker...if anything?
Michael Calta 06-29-2007, 10:31 AM Tucker hasn't been on since Bubba cut a promo on his answering machine. Brent says that Tucker's new schedule makes it impossible for him to do the show. Brent said that the only day that Tucker could do the show is Friday morning, and that he could get Tucker on the next Friday. Bubba told him to make it so, and get him on. Brent said okay, no problem. Tucker still hasn't been on.
Bubba's promo wasn't that stiff, and was a result of Tucker standing up the show. Looks like Tucker possibly just had reasons that he didn't want to do it anymore.
So you think starting a fight with Bob Levy and Yucko are going to hurt him in contract negotiations. They are so bit players on the Stern show vs. Howard who is solidly in Bubba's corner.
snausages 06-29-2007, 11:21 AM he's been bitchy for about a month now, calling out one person after another. i really don't know how people can stand working for/with him--he's just a playground bully when you boil it all down. i guess he's angry that sirius hasn't started negotiations yet? which is understandable, but i agree that he needs to take it down a notch and keep [at least some of] his pissy attitude off the radio.
Misskitty 06-29-2007, 11:28 AM Bubba likes it when Lasker goes crazy but not with Spice Boy..Man up Spice..
If he bans all the wack jobs, then there goes the funny.

Nah, but I love it when Stern people go on Bubbas show and "vicea-versa". I think Bubba has just been kinda crazy the past two weeks.
webcams 06-29-2007, 11:51 AM I don't get it either? From today kicking out a girl into the heat and humidity that can't even walk? Screwing up 25 cent's deal.
Firing everyone, if this is bubba mellow? What was Bubba 488 Like? Nearly 500lbs. of rage, I don't get the whole shitty attitude? Now we deal with the Howard act Whaa Everyone is stealing my Copyrighted bits, Actually Bubba your stealing Frosty's bit's but why mention that?
On the Chip is ok once in a while, Everyday though ? It get's old real quick.
Roundhead 06-29-2007, 12:14 PM Definatly getting old real quick with me as well. For Bubba to outright say he has control over Jason Ellis is just fucking retarded. I mean fuck he cant even get his own contract negotiated and hes threatening to get Ellis fired. The Spice boy- Lasker fight is crazy too. In case Bubba forgot it was Lasker who stayed with the show and not Spice Boy. Lasker was with him at Sirius from the begiinning while Spice was marking out to clear chanell. Spice made fun of Lasker for dropping out of school and he is a self admitted drop out too. I mean if thats not calling the kettle black i dont know what is. The truth is Lasker has more charisma on air than spice will ever have IMO. Also Akira is smart and intimidating to Bubba and thats why shes getting fucked over as well. In my opinion the show is crumbling to pieces and Yes Bubba you do need Lasker and others besides the 4 of you.
Hrolfr 06-29-2007, 12:32 PM Bubba really doe not need lasker.... the lasker bit gets old after a while..... Spice does more for the show then come in an act like an ass for a little bit then speed off in his truck. Oh wait that is Lasker's schtick. I think the contact gimmick is a work. Speaking of you are all worked into a mark lather over all this.
mkriss5681 06-29-2007, 12:33 PM I for one think Lasker is hilarious.
I love Bubba but I think he might be going a little crazy with the contract negotiations. He is starting fights with Bob Leevy, Yucko, Joey Boots, Jason Ellis, Akira, Artie (to an extent), Lasker and others. I think it might be time he calmed down a bit.
Are you serious? Artie is the only show talent in that list. No one else matters. Who gives a fuck that no talent levy, yucko or that asshole boots (money begger) is on sterns show. They're moron wakcpackers and bubba owes them nothing. Lasker's bubba's guy, he can do what he wants with him.
Bubba has his own show, he's had it for years and he only needs to do what he feels is right for his show.

You got to admit Lasker, Tucker, Akira, Jason Ellis and others have added a lot to the show and I hate to see them go.
yes those i agree, though im sick of akira
mkriss5681 06-29-2007, 01:05 PM yes those i agree, though im sick of akira
Yeah maybe too much Akira but I kinda feel bad for her. I personally think Akira picking the wheelchair guy was way funnier than if she just picked an average guy. I don't think she should be fired in the least bit.
KC CULTIVATION 06-29-2007, 01:18 PM Leevy, Yucko, Joey Boots, Jason Ellis, Akira-Hacks! No one cares about them. He duz not fight with Artie. Bubba is the #2 guy in the business. He can do what ever the fuck he wants. You want a love fest listen to Stern

:jj: that's certainly what Bubba thinks
Michael Calta 06-29-2007, 02:03 PM Leevy, Yucko, Joey Boots, = Irrelevant. Who are they? Exactly, nobody, they are worthless.
Jason Ellis = I like the guy, but he doesn't make or break the show
Akira = She has served her purpose. She has been crammed down our throats so much, that she's no longer entertaining. Just like any other whore, after you've used her for a while, you get bored. Smaller doses of Akira would go far in improving her standing and the quality of the show. The show whore theme has been run into the ground, much like the "Who will/did spice fuck today?" schtick.
Hrolfr 06-29-2007, 02:09 PM The akira shit was funny for a short while.... now she is just a dumb whore and brings the show to a halt
a1aara 06-29-2007, 02:49 PM I think it's all a work.
I think if Sissy Boy Spice would have stayed at CC it wouldn't have mattered a bit. Matter of fact. if Sissy Boy wouldn't have been fired he would still be at CC.
IGOWFO 06-29-2007, 03:38 PM I believe that it is way to early for the BTLS crew to start worrying about the contract negotiations. They have been bringing this up every so often at least since Christmas. They have been stating that filling events such as with Artie and the killers of comedy were a way for SIRIUS to test the BTLS following. They are just bringing it up way to much in my opinion. I believe that they just need to keep up the great work that they do and let things get a little closer to the end of the contract. I hope like hell that they get a contract but I feel they are coming off a little needy.
I just think it's screwed up how management has been shutting down things on the show left and right (i.e. Salvia this morning) and all Bubba does is work his ass off and try to put on a good show.
If they don't reward the show with a new contract, it would be screwed up. I mean, they're working four days next week and probably won't take a week vacation until the Fall.
The show needs more creative control in their next contract.
FREEBIRD 06-29-2007, 04:03 PM Bubba sucks he is the worst mistake Howard ever made.He only put Bubba on so he could sell some radio's to people in bumfuck,florida.Bubba the love sponge,wow thats comedy.please go away.

I agree with you hellcat! That show is so bad. Here is a guy who needed a hook, a catchy name. Something funny to get people to listen to him and he came up with Bubba the love sponge. He is not funny!!!!
Learn how to work. :shake:

I agree. Bubba and his guys have a great work ethic. They know how to put on a great show, Sirius is making a big mistake by fucking with them. How many times can you have your ideas shot down before you just quit trying.

Bubba needs to STOP marking out to Spice! It sucks! Enough is enough with that shit!
I love the show and I think they have gotten away from what they do best....Come on guys...get it together...
Doesn't really matter though I will still listen!!!! LOVE THE BUBBA
Oh and FUCK YOU Freebird!!!
slitlobes 06-29-2007, 05:16 PM I hate to say it, but Bubba needs to play hardball with Sirius Corporate, especially when it comes time to renew the contract at the end of this year,
Sirius Corporate has been squashing ideas/bits over and over again,
remember Live Bubba-vision on Thursdays after the radio show ---- GONE
remember Shocking the whatever -- GONE
remember Smoking Salvia -- GONE
those are just a few, feel Sorry for Bubba, he is trying his best,
I dont blame him at all, wish he would put up more of a fight though, and not conceed so easily.
dozerboy77 06-29-2007, 05:43 PM I hate to say it, but Bubba needs to play hardball with Sirius Corporate, especially when it comes time to renew the contract at the end of this year.
Before Sirius = no job. Contract coming up = be a team player. Now isn't the time to rock the boat. Get the contract and then he'll have a little more (excuse the pun) weight behind him.
"Learn how to work kid!!"

You may be right, Bubba should go for broke when Howard retires in 2011, but Bubba has earned the right the roll the dice a bit now, he doesnt have to conceed on everything, lets face it after Howard who does Sirius really have that can bring in the subscribers.
Once Howard retires, Sirius is gonna be a sinking ship, Bubba is the only man who can keep all of this a float.
Sirius at some point will have to legitamtely decide what they want to do once Howard retires, Bubba is the heir apparant, they arent gonna let him slip away.
remember Live Bubba-vision on Thursdays after the radio show ---- GONE
I didn't realize that might have been a corporate decision. I miss live Bubba Raw. :(

I personally think that's why Bubba has been so angry lately. I hope Sirius renews him soon. I just hate seeing some of the show regulars gone and now SotB. But in his defense him going off on that drunk slut today with the megaphone was radio gold.

That segment was an example of what makes Howard and Bubba great. When you take away the guests, cricket capers, and stunts, they can take a situation like that and run with it to make great radio.
One thing that was kind of strange today was his line "I barely have a radio show."
Ned'sTesticles 06-29-2007, 06:11 PM My guess is Sirius said nothing and it was a work

Yeah thats kinda how I feel. I'm just hoping Bubba is renewed in December.

Actually it really isn't. When you think about it, there's less than 6 months to the end of his 2nd year. I think he had a 3 year contract which has to drive him nuts since stern's is 5. If Stern really is going to retire the only legitimate replacement is Bubba. A year and a Half to go you need to know your life is going to either move on or stay the same.
I think the main problem is what stern's going to do, and whether sirius will even be around in 2 years.

Your a bit off, Bubba's contract ends This year not next year, He feels that he will be resigned sometime in mid january 08
slitlobes 06-29-2007, 06:30 PM only 2 years?
yes his contract was only 2 years, he wants his next contract to be 3 years so that it ends the same time as Howard's does in 2011.
damn, I thought it was 3. Yea screw that they better give him at least 3 with good money or it's a total slap in the face
Sophiclese420 06-29-2007, 06:40 PM IMHO, Bubba can deflect any questions about the resigning with "fuck those people" and move on, or by deflecting to some tyraid on that note. And this tactic is so "okay" with the people he's talking about... I mean, think about who they work for!
Talkin shit is the primary way of life in their business, and it makes good radio kid!!!

Pete From PA 06-29-2007, 08:26 PM I think Bubba might be getting a little irritated at why he doesn't have a contract yet, six months away from the new year. I know I would. I sure hope it's nothing serious. The combination of Howard, Bubba and Ferrall is a home run in my book. Three great shows, three strong personalities, three different types of entertainment. The thing I'd like to see is Bubba and Ferrall both locked in until the end of Howard's contract.
Roundhead 06-29-2007, 08:40 PM nope... believe it ;) I will believe it like I believe in Santa :D
BonswanaMiliken 06-29-2007, 09:38 PM I wouldn't worry about Bubba pissing off the glorified wack pack. I don't get why Bubba is so quick to "fire" Lasker just because he hurt poor pretty boy Lloyd's feelings.
Sirius needs to get on the ball and re-up Bubbas show...

A perfect combination for sirius and every subscriber. I would renew for the duration of the contract about 10 seconds after the announcement.

Yeah, you, me and a lot of other people, I'm sure. Let's hope Sirius really understands what they have here, and gets this wrapped up soon.

None of those people mean anything to Sirius- not a single one of them hold a candle to Bubba and none of them can even host a show like Bubba does.
Bubba's got heat and he deservedly does- I am sure we are only seeing the tip of the ice burg. BTLS is one of the reasons I am a happy Sirius subscriber-

He's a lose cannon. Lose cannon's do accidental damage which then Bubba has to fix. I am sure, seeing how Lasker is, that there have been more incidents- especially so, normally Bubba would laugh at his hill billy antics, but lately he has less patience for them.
mcleod 06-30-2007, 08:13 AM Hopefully this will all be resolved favorably...I subscribed to Sirius so that I could listen to Howard, Bubba was just a bonus. Over the past year, thats all changed. I still listen to Howard, but Bubba is the main reason that I continue to subscribe!

I can only listen to Howard's show once- on Friday, I listen from 4:30 to 5:30am and then again from 7am to 4pm- from there, depending on what is on 101- I stay (for Intern and or come back for Ferrall) else I am on Maxim or music) the rest of what's on 101 and 100 is not enough to keep me tuned into Sirius- but it doesn't have to be with all the selection we have.
I am in the exact same scenario as you, I bought for Howard, but keep it for Bubba-

Ferrall has hit the motherlode recently with the Denny McClain and Iron Sheik interviews.
emtfromny2 06-30-2007, 04:56 PM i don't think that Scott Greenstein or Mel give a shit if he starts anything with Levy or Yucko.
emtfromny2 06-30-2007, 04:58 PM I was an original Howard fan that came to Sirius for him. However, I began listening to Bubba shortly after he arrive, and listen to him. I think he really puts out for the "team", and really gives 110%. Hopefully Tim and Sirius will do right by him.

Yeah but I like Levy. I thought the killers of comedy down in tampa was a cool special on HTV & Bubba Raw. I just don't want it to affect cross-promotion.
matt24 07-01-2007, 10:24 AM I AGREE, WHY DOES HE ALWAYS BRING UP THE CONTRACT ON THE AIR...its is a getting old at this point
catdr9155 07-01-2007, 10:50 AM I'm just worried its gonna hurt him in the contract negotiation, besides I think over all burning bridges is bad for the show. All of those people you mentioned are just hangeroners at this point, you have to remember that a lot of that is a WORK just for good radio.
AlbanianDude 07-01-2007, 04:08 PM Nah, but I love it when Stern people go on Bubbas show and "vicea-versa". I think Bubba has just been kinda crazy the past two weeks. YOu are out of your fuckiung mind if you think he is crazy when clearly levy disrespected bubba and the show fuck levy.
webcams 07-01-2007, 04:11 PM What did Levy say anyways ? Did he say he wanted to eat b. cheese dressing out of someones ass?
YOu are out of your fuckiung mind if you think he is crazy when clearly levy disrespected bubba and the show fuck levy.
Nicely put AD
bubba is bubba and thats what bubba does. making something out of nothing obviously you must be bored find something else to do

ruggertheretard 07-02-2007, 10:33 AM I love Bubba but I think he might be going a little crazy with the contract negotiations. He is starting fights with Bob Leevy, Yucko, Joey Boots, Jason Ellis, Akira, Artie (to an extent), Lasker and others. I think it might be time he calmed down a bit.
Aside from Artie (who Bubba has almost no heat with) Sirius couldn't give a shit about 99% of these people. Aside from Artie, Stern barely cares about these people.
Do you seriously believe that the decision makers at Sirius even know who Yuko or Boots are?
Mel Karmazin to Room of Sirius Execs: Ok guys, we have before us a budget allocation for H101 to renew the contact for the "Bubba the Love Sponge" show. Howard and Tim Sabian are in favor of it, any discussion?
Random Suit: Excuse me, this "Bubba" person has ben engaged with an ongoing on air feud with Joey Boots who is a moderator on the Stern Fan Network website. He also has had a feud with Yuko the clown, a racist clown that appears on the stern show 2-3 times a year.
Mel: Stern fan network?
Randon Suit: A website that is essentially a Howard Stern fan club. He's also a regular caller that recently revealed on the Stern show that he's gay.
Mel: So you are saying we should not extend this contract because this show host has an on-air fued with the moderator of a Howard Stern message board and a racist clown. . . .
Random Suit: Among other low level Stern regulars.
Mel: You're fired, get the hell put of my conference room.
Casual 07-02-2007, 12:56 PM It's a fine line because you have the fact that Howard saved Bubba from unemployment after the regular radio falllout and gave Bubba a chance, but then there is also the fact that Bubba is working at a defecit and for the amount of work he does for the channels...he should definatly be paid more. Yes he can still make money selling his stuff but I think Howard needs to be directly involved in the negotiations.
slitlobes 07-02-2007, 12:57 PM IS BUBBA-PODCAST really that bad of an idea,
I would subscribe to that if it meant, no corporate bullshit censorship.

That's a fascinating script there but I didn't mean to imply it would hurt him really in the contract negotiations (even though it can't help) but more that the contract negotiations are putting him on the chip.

yeah. i really hope howard steps up. i'm wondering it its too soon to start a letter writing campaign.
DOUBLE07 07-02-2007, 02:43 PM Bubba seems to have a history of "Either your with me or against me".
He loves drama even if it is "Worked".
KurtB 07-02-2007, 02:59 PM Yeah maybe too much Akira but I kinda feel bad for her. I personally think Akira picking the wheelchair guy was way funnier than if she just picked an average guy. I don't think she should be fired in the least bit.
I love how the dude busted on everyone on the show just to stick it to them.
DICKWAD 07-02-2007, 03:07 PM I don't think Howard even likes Levi,
Splintnote 07-02-2007, 03:21 PM Does anyone here really think Bob Levy even knew who Bubba was when he did this bit on Kidd Chris's show in 2000? If Bubba should be mad at anyone it should be Kidd Chris.
bignatty 07-02-2007, 04:24 PM we all know that howard has way more to do with the $$$. then he acts like,but bubba needs to back it down a notch. what bubba is missing in the levey situation is that kid chris did the bit not him he just went with it since theve done it before. if it is stolen from bubba then so be it btu bubba is gonna look like shit if kid chris did the shit first and just didnt care.
bbubba better be ready if he and levey go at it he mmight get more than he asked for!

I'm starting to think its more a shtick than heat.
keppe 07-03-2007, 06:46 AM Its just the fake wrestling thing. Conflict sells. Bubba gets heat on because he is a fake wrestling mark and he follows that format.
