Howard Stern Making Major Changes at SiriusXM Radio Show: Layoffs and Cutting Back to 1 Show a Week

    Howard Stern is reportedly making major changes to ‘The Howard Stern Show.’ According to ‘Page Six,’ the longtime radio host is laying off about a dozen staffers as the SiriusXM series prepares to scale back to just one new episode per week, following Stern’s summer break. Archived episodes will reportedly fill in the remaining time slots. The reported changes come months after Stern signed a new contract that allows for greater flexibility and more time off. While a core group of longtime producers is expected to remain, SiriusXM has not publicly commented on the reported layoffs.

    1. Hey!!! F*** all you guys!!! Howard rules!! He's the best he's always been good.It's you guys who f**** suck. I have Sirius only for stern , and I'll gladly listen to throwbacks all day!!! Ba Ba Louie!!!! (True fan throw back)😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    2. Nobody wants to hear his horrible political stances that are quite un American…all.celebs fail and become less marketable after bashing and mocking one of the best Presidents in history,the things Trump did for minorities,New Yorkers and everyday Americans is off the chart,greatguy&family,all opposite of Howard Stern,the disgusting immoral loser….

    3. Maybe it's the show, or my age, or both, but I cancelled my subscription about a month back. The main reason is I just got exhausted with Howard berating his staff for doing stuff they love……bullying JD for his sports cards or LEGO, going after Gary for pickleball or going to Bruce concerts. Then, his constant bitching about his life.

      One could say he always did this. Again, either it became more concentrated with him only doing two shows a week, or maybe I've gotten older and just don't feel like hearing it and cringing.

    4. On his own terms? Maybe if we are now counting the loss of millions of fans as “own terms” now?! 🤣🤣🤣 good riddance! He hasn’t been funny since network radio

    5. All you commenting negatively on this .. so I don't have to keep copying and pasting. Awe Jealous much? If ratings were tanking like you say- I'm sure SiriusXM wouldn't be throwing $100 million on a live once a week show. That's $139,860 a show and that's not giving him any week off.

    6. Go away Howard. Go away! You cause my Sirius/XM bill to be higher than it should be and I haven’t listened to you for more than five minutes in the 20 years I’ve had my subscription. I like the service enough to pay a premium for it, but it tears my heart out to know Howard Stern is getting even one nickel of my money.

    7. He is the greatest, most entertaining person in my lifetime and I'm glad I was alive when he was alive. He is every right to retire he's 72 years old. He is the closest thing to a living God there is. And now you can go ahead and yell at me….

    8. Don’t fall for it….
      It’s all reruns anyway…even the new shows are nothing new…
      I hear a Beatles song…”You’re gonna Lose that Girl…”!

    9. Stern will do 1 show a week "the rest of the week of shows is expected to rely on Howards massive archive".
      Betya Stern doesn't use any of misogynistic, homophobic material from the archive.

    10. Who the hell would listen to him anymore. He’s become a Hollywood shill! Guy actually said he looks forward to seeing Ellen dance! What a sell out!

    11. No one has made me laugh more since 1986 than Stern. His show was a must listen for decades.
      That said, his show became irrelevant years ago as he became exactly what he rebelled against in the early years. It was time for him to retire a decade ago.
