Now there are no restraints, i think he's going to lose alot of his impact - there are no boundaries left to push, Howard still is a brilliant comic mind and monologist and most of all a master puppeteer of real living human beings so i'm hoping he catches on quick that swearing and having pornstars do outrageous things won't really mean much on satellite because everybody is doing it. This is going to be a huge challenge for him at his age to re-invent himself and his show.
Well written and too the point. I know I'll have sirius come January, but the facts you brought up make perfect sence. I was going to buy a few shares of it, but for the reasons you mentioned I did not. I hope I don't regret it in 2 years.
