Sour shoes was by far the worst because he made it all a joke. Pete was terrible but he tried I think. JD didn't take his serious so I don't even count it.

Sometimes I want to like him, and sometimes I think that he's just super skeezy, creepy, and he exploits the disabled and unfortunate. An acquaintance once tried to claim that he was just giving these people a platform, but I'm not sure that I buy that.

And Sour's best moment, Sour screwing with Steve Langford for 2 fricking years: LINK

That was so good because how legit upset Langford really was. I didn't hear these interviews that OP is referencing, but when Sour Shoes was in studio his Chris Russo and Baba Booey impressions were so spot on it was hard to tell it was him and not them.

used to listen/watch cut ups of his show on E when I was a teenager late at night.

whwn I was at LSU in '01ish it would episodes would come from 11-12pm and then 2 more from 1-2am with one of the episodes being a rerun from earlier in the night and one being a new episode

Those Syrbian episodes

Also before it came on you had some 'Wild on E!' with Brooke Burke, she was GOAT at the time.... Some solid fap material for basic cable.

In the early 90s I did

I do have one friend that listens to Stern still. He records them or listens to them on demand or podcast or something, but doesn't listen to the show as its being broadcast. He sometimes travels cross country in his jeep for work when he takes on contracts as a travel nurse and catches up on the shows then I think.

I have listened. He throws these people's disabilities in their faces and treats it as a source of entertainment. "Oh listen to the shite that retard says! Hahaha! You're so stupid." "Oh isn't that girl so hideous." He spouts a shite load of ignorant shite. Probably why it appeals to the average, middle of the road person so much.

But hey, stay satisfied with your lazy response.
