***Beth Stern For The Robin Quivers Chair***

If Robin were somehow unable to resume her duties as co-host of the Howard Stern Show then the natural and best decision is to fill that seat with the other most important woman in Howard's life and that is his lovely wife Beth!
Who else other than Robin has that chemistry and spark to make it work? No one else other than Beth.
Seriously.
Also take into account the iron clad contract Stern has with Sirius/XM.
Howard is still obligated to honor that deal as he always does.
So in light of that I see no other choice but to make Beth the co-host in case Robin is not around.
I for one think it would be amazing.

That would be difficult for Beth!

The listeners would be unable to absorb what she's saying because 70% comes from her hands and arms flailing around!

well this is going to go over like a led ballon

either you are trying to be really funny in a very dark way or just got done huffing a gallon of ether. That would be worse then the Holocaust, the black death, the sun exploding, and having jeff the vomit guy marry my 7 year old daughter all wrapped up in one huge cluster fuck.

I wonder if he'll take next week off if Robin is recovering? I don't know if they have to schedule their vacations far in advance or not.

I don't think Beth is good on the radio, and I don't think Robin is replaceable, especially in Howard's eyes. It will be a rough transition if she doesn't come back.

I can just see it now, Chandeliers in Studio 69!

The best part is that it would come out of Howchie's budget!

If Robin can't come back, Howard should go gentle into that good night and end the HSS once and for all.
As much as Robin can be a pain, she's a key player and it wouldn't be the same without her.
Just look how much was lost without Artie.

How 'bout "No"!

It wouldn't be a bad idea, imagine all the chemistry!

chemistry? really? she ran away when King of all Blacks talked to her for 2 minutes, then yelled at Howard off the air, and made him change his mind about the situaton! Its obvious she doesnt have what it takes to talk to non-positive listeners live, so she obviously is not a good pick.

Ugh, that voice and dumb blonde chit chat she spews.

Hey at least for a show she would be interesting, imagine all the Beth bashers here having a field day. I love Beth and it would be a good idea, she could come and promote Mom Caves

They could have her co-worker Jared in for an interview, just hope that when Howard asks him how big his cock is Beth doesn't answer.

Whoah that's really out of bounds! They are just co-workers

You gotsta be trippin'

You must be the REAL Howard Stern. Hi Howard!

Now,now...be nice...

No...actually what I'm doing is constructive thought and analysis.
Let's work through this ok?
Howard says that he ALWAYS honors contracts.
Howard always says he never leaves big money left on the table. That is why he keeps coming back.
Howard says he loves Robin and she is an important woman in his life and that she always "has his back".
When I read the details of his latest deal I did not read anywhere from anyone of an "out" clause in the event that Robin Quivers wasn't available.
During this time, Howard has not mentioned ONCE the possibility that he has an escape clause WITH payment. If he had it then he would mention this detail when discussing the situation.
I'm sure if he asked to be released from his deal with a clause to not sign with another broadcaster for the remainder of this current contract they would acquiesce to his request in order to save more money. Remember...he would be leaving several hundred million on the table!
So what to do? Lisa G.? Maybe...but there is no real history with her and seeing how she's always into self promotion to make a buck off the fans I don't know how much her heart is into the show. It's most likely anyways that Beth would squash that seeing that Lisa is stalker obsessed with Howard. Can't blame Beth with that one.
So at Howard's age and his admittance that he doesn't really to work too hard on this show anymore, other than doing it alone with the occasional rotation of sit in guests, which by the way he's not too into anymore either, what's left?
I think Beth Stern.
She has his back and knows him better than anyone else.
Howard says that she's on his same sleep schedule.
They could talk more about their life together.
It could lead to some good husband/wife fights on the air which could be fun.
I honestly think he would consider this idea.
Also it would give Beth even greater national exposure which is obvious she craves.
I think it's a win win for everyone.
I want Robin back and I pray she's ok but just in case the worst happens remember where you read this first.
Thanxxx!

All other attempts to give Beth some semblence of a career has fallen flat so I suppose this would be the next logical step.

No substitute, no substitute, no substitute for yooooou-whoo! - Chef

This would go 1 of 2 ways....

1. She would be really boring and her and Howard would spend 4 hours 3 days a week every third week between vacations and MomCave filmings telling each other how great and amazing they each are.

2. Howard would revert back to the Howard we love and their marriage would slowly descend into hell and we would get to see them divorce right before our eyes.

Option #2 would be must see tv and would bring back some listeners (including me).

Bottom line is this.
Howard is a fucking genius and whatever he decides to do or not do is ok in my book.
