Struggling with bowel movements thanks to medicine related to his recent knee replacement surgery, Stern Show executive producer Gary Dell’Abate has begun taking Metamucil crackers, the same fiber supplement that Howard has long discussed using. When asked about it Wednesday morning, Howard was more than happy to offer his insight. “I would say within a few days you’re gonna start to really see a difference,” he told his longtime staffer. “You’re going to have a wonderful experience.”

Despite having a few accidents earlier this year during quarantine, Gary described how difficult moving his bowels has been since the surgery. “Things were getting bad, stuff was not moving,” he admitted before getting into a particularly rough incident. “I was in the bathroom for like 15 minutes, like really straining and sweating – I understand why Elvis died on the toilet because my heart was pumping, it was like I had run. It hurt so bad.”

Less painful was Gary’s recent vacation to Maine which, prompted by wife Mary, could be a possible home for the couple down the line once they’ve retired. “The idea is to have a small place in Maine and maybe a small place in Florida, eventually,” he noted. “I’ve got one big house – I can trade it in for two much smaller houses.”

While Mary threw out different scenarios including purchasing a fixer upper or even a rental property, Gary has different ideas. “I’m not a fucking landlord, I’m not fixing shit up, I just want to fucking move into a turnkey house and be happy,” he recalled to Howard emphatically.

“Shut this motherf-cker off because I’m going to go right through this fucking computer,” Howard’s longtime limo driver yells

A simple political discussion devolved into a full-blown shouting match Wednesday morning after longtime caller King of All Blacks accused staffer Ronnie Mund of lying about being an undecided voter.

The conversation began with Ronnie insisting he hadn’t decided who to support in November. Howard and co-host Robin Quivers were skeptical, especially considering his longtime limo driver has had months to make up his mind. “I believe that Ronnie knows who he’s voting for. I find it hard to believe that there are still undecideds out there,” Howard said.

Tempers flared after King of All Blacks called to concur with Howard. “[Ronnie’s] not undecided. This is the most polarized election in the history of America and he doesn’t know who he’s voting for?” he said.

“No, I don’t!” Ronnie shouted. “If you don’t want to believe what I’m saying, fine—don’t believe it. I don’t give a fuck!” he added.

Next, King of All Blacks mocked Ronnie for his much-discussed decision to retire in Sin City. “What idiot moves to Vegas?” he asked.

That’s when Ronnie grew apoplectic. “Shut this motherfucker off because I’m going to go right through this fucking computer. Fuck him, this stupid fucking asshole motherfucker. Who the fuck does he think he is? What’s wrong with moving to Vegas?” he yelled. “Your fucking father gave you everything. He gave you a fancy house, fancy cars, a lot of fucking money. That’s all you ever talk about us your fancy stuff.”

“Who the hell walks around with a fucking fur coat?” Ronnie added.

“Me!” King of All Blacks responded before reiterating Howard was the one who’d first been skeptical of Ronnie’s undecided status.

“I don’t care what Howard fucking said!” Ronnie screamed. “I don’t give a shit! He can say whatever he wants. He can say I fucking voted for the fucking Black Crowes. I don’t give a fuck!”

The staffer grew so animated while shouting Howard ended the call out of concern. “You go calm down,” he told Ronnie. “You’re turning beet red.”
