Eli Braden's Hilarious Journey on the Howard Stern Show
My biggest takeaway, after being there for a week and interacting with these people that I listen to every day, was just how real the show is, like it really is, this sort of dysfunctional family and that stuff that plays out on the air.
Ever wondered what it's like to be a comedy writer for the legendary Howard Stern Show? In this episode of 'This Life #YOULIVE with Dr. Drew', Eli Braden gives you a front-row seat to his wild ride in the world of explicit musical jingles and radio antics. Filling in for Bob Forrest, who’s on baby duty, is Caleb Bacon, adding his own comedic flair to the conversation.
Eli Braden doesn’t hold back as he recounts his experiences, from crafting outrageous jingles to working closely with the show's iconic figures like Robin Quivers. You'll get a peek behind the curtain at some of the show's most memorable moments and hear about the quirky 'whack packers' and celebrity guests like Hugh Grant. But it's not all laughs. The episode takes a serious turn when Braden opens up about Robin Quivers' severe head trauma and a shocking kidnapping incident.
Despite these challenges, Quivers' resilience shines through, adding depth to her role on the show. The trio also explores the dysfunctional family dynamic that makes the Howard Stern Show so compelling. It's a mix of chaos and camaraderie that keeps listeners coming back for more. Be warned, though: the episode wraps up with an explicit musical number by Braden, so listener discretion is advised.
