I know I'll get flamed for this, but I'm just being honest. I friggin hate the news! It bores the hell out of me.
If they don't have other programming ready, they should just replay Howard and Bubba all the time.

I like the news, they just replay it way too often. I suspect Howard will fill up those news-repeat hours with more original programming as time goes on. Just have patience.

I'm sick of it. I'm hearing shit that I heard on there two weeks ago. It's a joke. They should just replay shows from the week.

I'd like to hear it once or twice, but not over and over and over and over and over again.

If they keep replaying shows from the week, it will end up sounding like 100 news.

I'm sure that in due time, Howard will start filling up the channels with more programming.

And if you're listening to 100 news all the time, you're likely to go insane.

I wouldn't mind it if they replayed the actual show one more time in the middle of the two slots they're currently playing it on. Although it's on twice, because of my schedule, I still can't catch the whole show.

Yeah, I'm tired of the news replays. But I think I am now officially sick of the "are you sick of the news" threads. Everyone can just assume everyone is sick of the replays...now let's move on.

I've got to admit I AM sick of it. I'd rather hear repeats of the Stern show over & over, rather than Howard 100 news. I signed up with Sirius to hear Howard.

As the song goes, "Give me more Howard Stern..."

I find the news interesting the FIRST time it's on. But I can't wait until they have enough programming that they don't have to repeat Howard 100 episodes from weeks ago.

Don't get me wrong, the news does get old, but I will sit through anything for Howard.

It's not that I mind turning the channel or anything. It's that they could be putting the morning show replay or Bubba's replay on instead of two week old news reports.

Just because there's other channel options doesn't mean we can't complain when the content on Howard 100 is subpar.

01-22-2006, 03:58 PM
i'm totally sick of it....i'd rather hear meet the shrink replays or something.

true, i can just turn the channel....which is what i do.

BUT i'm also annoyed at the howard100 news updates that howard puts on The Howard Stern Show, where george flowers or lisa g. or whoever comes in to promote what will be on the news later. you can't avoid that!!!!!

Well I think Steve Langford's report from the D.C. indecency hearings was a great new step into a larger world for Howard 100 news.
Quite a compelling report especially when Langford is approached almost secretly by some lobbyist who nudges him not to ask too many questions... :scardie:
Langford and Flowers = the new Woodward and Bernstein??? :clap:

I would rather hear repeats of the superfan round table or the earlier week's shows...Howard needs more "LIVE" programming instead of the endless looping of old news.

01-22-2006, 04:14 PM
The news isn't all bad. It sucks when they play shit from before howard got on the air. They need to play only news clips from this week. They still have crap from last year replaying.

01-22-2006, 04:20 PM
I enjoy about 15 minutes of the news in one sitting. I think it'd be better if they were 5 or 10 minute segments placed inbetween stuff throughout the day.

joetrumps
01-22-2006, 05:05 PM
the news is overkill.
Once or twice a week, maybe. Not every day.

And "change the station" isn't the fucking point. The question the guy asked was are people getting sick of the news. Answer yes or no, or just ignore the thread.

I actualy love the news.........even 1 replay.............just not replays from 3-4 weeks ago

Chrisell
01-22-2006, 05:10 PM
I actually enjoy the new's, provided that it is treated like real new's. That is to say that the new's be new new's every time it is broadcast. All too often the new's flip flop's and you hear a new story, followed by a story reviewing Howard's first day at Sirius. I do really enjoy the "behind the scene's" stuff, and I am sure that like everything else once they have enough content then thing's will be a lot different, so I guess that we will all have to be a little patient for a little while.

FreeSpeachMan
01-22-2006, 05:16 PM
Yeah. I don't like the repeating the same shit over and over. Some of it is interesting but some of it is dull as hell. Please Howard do PM Replays of the same day shows. Those of us who work will tune in to see what we missed that morning. Enough with the other filler shit!!! :ranting:

If I'm f--king paying for HOWARD 100 why can't I get more actual HOWARD and not more of the News. Oh then again more Bubba the Love Sponge seems to fill the bill for someone at Howard 100. I don't know, but Bubba on HOWARD 100 seems kinda, oh I don't know STUPID. 100 Should be all HOWARD all the time.

I'm paying and I should get what I want, but of course as a FAN and a CUSTOMER I'm bending over for my screw job. At least this time I'll enjoy it because HOWARD has a small one so I shouldn't feel a thing.

I know you guys say turn the radio off and I do, but dammit for once, WWWWaaaaaHHHHH why can't I f'ing get what I want when I'm f--king paying...........

Oh and F - Jackie........ and any random NUT SAC who doesn't like what I'm saying.

Oh and BTW HOWARD you need to stop ignoring this issue on the AIR and SPEAK to it. Don't be a like that Bitch Rachel Hunter. Respond to the suffering of your fans.

MUTT take our fan suffering to Howard, what's up with this BS.

Yes, yes ..and yes...man, every time I get in the car on the weekend I'm psyched to catch something new on the channel. Then they play a story they have been playing for over a month. Enough already...put an intern on it and let them cut up a few 5 - 10 minute spots from the best of the week and play those all weekend.

Any time I turn on HOWARD 100 I should hear HOWARD. If I feel I need a break I'll check out 101, but I want HOWARD all the time on 100. That is the only reason I have Sirius and that I even turn it on is because I want to hear HOWARD.

I love Howard and will listen to him any time, but this is just STUPID and LAME that when I turn on HOWARD 100 I heard BUBBA The SHIT SPONGE..... Come on, this is BULL SHIT......

THIS COMING WEEKEND, JUST PLAY HOWARDS FIRST WEEK THE ENTIRE WEEKEND LONG ON 100! WE'LL LET YOU KNOW IF WE WANT TO CHANGE IT! :mad: THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND PLAY THE SECOND WEEK AND SO ON.

The F--king NEWS it Driving me insane, okay I know Super Twink is bad. I know that Bubba Lost A lot of weight. Come on Already I gave you my subscription I didn't think when you said you'd give me news that that's all I'd get. :mad:

I love Howard, but after my current three month subscription if this doesn't change I will be putting up a Boycott web site till this changes....... I'm giving him my current three months...... Actually that is generous.........

F--k Boycott I might ask for my money back............ Okay I'm going over board, but it's the news it's driving me batty.

How about a REAL SUPERFAN Roundtable devoted to this issue........... I'm a fan and I love him this news is horrible.

I'm pissed and lashing out because it appears the programmers of Howard 100 and perhaps Howard himself is not listening. The weekends are the only time SOME of us get to listen and tune in for NON-STOP HOWARD, not a little bit here and there. COME ON.....

Enough people have griped about this that some changes should be made immediately. Some changes have been made, but they are mostly Lame, i.e. a show here and there and Bubba The SHIT SPONGE. LAME!!!!

Howard is worth $100 a month to me based on the receivers I'm planning on getting, it's just that NO ONE LIKES TO BE IGNORED.

The concept of Howard 100 News is great - some of the stories are better than others... just like broadcast national/local news. Personally, I like listening in on the news, wrap-up show, and other regular spots that folks here seem to not like very much; but that's just my opinion.

As for getting your money back for the Sirius subscription, what did you sign on for in the first place? If Howard's show isn't worth the lousy $12.95 a month, what is? Did Howard promise you something that you aren't getting?

Howard promised original programming and has said it many times -- this Sirius project is an organic thing, it will evolve... The Howard 100 News (or anything else on 100 and 101 for that matter) is not set in stone.

While I'm already a fan of the majority of the programming (including the upcoming Meet the Sterns and other great stuff) , I will remain patient to see what changes they make to the news to make it even better...

You guys just don't get it. I'm a fan and I love Howard, but I'm a selfish bastard and I want what I want.

Howard said on his show that he lurks here. Well Howard give us more of you all the time on HOWARD 100.

I'm going to be patient for the next three months, but it's not too hard to give us ALL HOWARD ALL THE TIME on Howard 100 and then Play with Howard 101 all you want.......... IT's so simple it will work.

HOWARD 100 NEWS are you listening, Call ME, that's real HOWARD NEWS!!!!!

I'm on a mission, a mission to get HOWARD 100 to be ALL HOWARD ALL THE TIME...... Yes it's your toy HOWARD, but for now till you get more crap to put on just play your shows on HOWARD 100 and then do other stuff with 101.

I'm a selfish Bastard, but I know once I get this I'll ask for more, but that's how we selfish bastards are....

I only have Sirius for now, not for the LAME AZZED MUSIC I can Hear anywhere I have SIRIUS for HOWARD....!!!!!!!!!!!!

Way too much news between the two stations! And the news isn't even that great, I enjoyed it more while I was waiting for Howards debut, now it just bores me. I think once a day would be fine and fill up the slots on one of the stations with a replay of the Stern Show so that all the construction guys who can't listen at work and go to bed too early to listen at night get a chance to hear the show.

Does anyone find Howard 100-101 Lacking over the weekends?
I wish the weekend programming was better. Something live would be key. I just heard the story about beetlejuice's manager for like the 1000th time...I hope weekends get a little bit more attention. Let Artie or Robin do an hour or two, And even fred would be nice to here, spinning some tunes...Still the best, but weekends could be better.

Red Peters was fantastic...... But still I want more Howard until we can get more original programming.

They moved the thread rather than respond.... what a load of crap.... at least that is a response, instead of just being ignored. :cool:

01-24-2006, 06:51 PM
Two hours of news a day with regular updates is all they should have on 100/101 combined.
It's only two and a half weeks in, and I can tell they're running out of material already. Maybe mix it up with some celebrity news, etc. It's hard to believe they have 17 people working full time on this.

Also, I do hope that they will soon have more programming. 101 should be a latecast of the show with constant repeats until the latecast of the following day's show. 100 should be Howard and other original programming. Just my opinion.

drakedane

I am so tired of hearing people talking about Howard 100 news replays. These people sound like children who have never listened to an all news radio station before - many of them probably are and never have. Because it's Howard Stern's channel, I guess they expect it to be bits and comedy 24/7. I agree with others, and Howard himself, who says he plans to fill up his channels with more programming - meaning, over time, less news replays. However, even if he didn't, just like some people can't catch all of the Stern show, even though it airs about 3 times a day, the point of running the days news over and over again is to address the fact that people may be checking in at all times of the day or night and might have missed the news someone else has heard over and over again.

My advice to these people is to switch over to one of the comedy channels, or to any other channel! These people sound as if someone is FORCING them to listen to the same news over and over again. In short: Get a life. Although I'm sure Howard is very flattered that you only want to listen to him 24/7, he himself is promoting the full range of channels available at Sirius to subscribers.

As far as the Howard 100 News itself goes, I do agree with one criticism: replaying very old news reports, seems a bit dumb. However, I've assumed that, being relatively new and being so specialized (focusing only on the Howard Stern universe), it may be more difficult than we know to keep the news totally new and fresh each and every day, all day long. As the show gathers steam, I'm sure all of this will work itself out (if indeed it needs to).

I don't mind the endless replaying of profile pieces and stuff like that (indepth interviews, special investigative pieces, etc); but actually newscasts should be more or less current. I mean: That's the point of a "daily newscast".

Beyond this, I have nothing but praise for the Howard 100 News! As someone who has listened to all news radio for years, I have to say that the Howard 100 newscasts sound as professional and authentic as any newscasts I've ever heard. Keep up the good work!

ElSupremo
01-24-2006, 09:52 PM
It's only about 2 months of H100 news, Howard has only had 16 days on air... there is some adjusting that will come with time.
Give the guy a break after all he's been under house arrest for a long time and now Howard and all of his ideas are unleashed in a very short period of time. Believe me Howard will take care of business and everything will get better and better with a little time so let's be patient people. Time to put the thread to rest.

soccerman13
01-25-2006, 03:07 PM
Im hoping Howard will add more original programs that arent necessariliy related to the show. For example, Bubba's show is great, it'd be cool to have another radio personality have a 4 hour show each day at a different time slot.
The sitcom idea sounds cool too. So does a sports show. And so does the Bunny Ranch show.

We dont need more shows talking about THE show. The news, the wrap up show and round table are more than enough. Dead Air Dave's show is DEAD on arrival.

The screwed up part is that last weekend they actually replayed some of the shows from the week. This weekend after Howard has a fit over SFN they are back to Bubba and the News.

Here's what's listed on HowardStern.com

THE HOWARD 100/101 WEEKEND SCHEDULE!!

SATURDAY
10a-2p Bubba Friday Show

4p-5p The Intern Show

7p-8p Super Fan Roundtable

SUNDAY

10a-11a Meet The Sterns

1p-5p Bubba Thursday Show


All times are Eastern on 100, this schedule will air three (3) hours delayed on Howard 101.

On the east coast it's warm and I'm spending time in my car and it sucks that I have to listen to Crap instead of hearing Howard's show.

Bubba The Shit Sponge Sucks and I don't care how good he gets, that radio ready voice of his sucks........ Can't stand it after 10 minutes I want to smash my radio. If Bubba is the future of Howard 100, or even 101 it's all over.........

I agree 100% man. I love the stern show and everyone on it, but I cant stand to listen to hours of uninteresting info on EVERYTHING that has to do with the show. Like for instance, when Henry Hill got bombed at the show the other day, all I care about is the audio of him drunk, I dont care what some fucking douche from the restaurant has to say about what happened, not to mention the guy had nothing to say about it anyway. I love Stern but I cant listen to that news anymore.
