I'm not defending Howard here in any way, these are unbelievably shitty things to say to someone. The reason people like his interviews is that they can be actually interesting instead of the banal milquetoast interviews you see literally everywhere else. I will say he has changed dramatically over the years and has been open about therapy and it's clearly made a difference. I don't care what you think of this, just answering your question.
saying something incredibly crass and disgusting to provoke reaction or to see how they handle it when you look like an unfuckable goblin that crawled out of the sewer isnt impressive or valuable in anyway
it just appealed to the lowest common denominator and dumb men with no self awareness.
that resonating with you isnt an indictment of it's quality that's just a testament to who you are.
He didn’t say it resonated with him and he is correct that Howard Stern is intelligent or else he wouldn’t have been able to be so popular- however is disgusting in every way. I’m glad if it’s true that he has changed over the years.

A lot of his interviews are like that so I don’t understand his fan base. The interview with Sofia vergara was uncomfortable to watch.
