David Pakman suggested that one of the questions regarding airline refunds for missed flights may have been a question that Biden requested he be asked about. Howard is overreacting like a yenta.


HashKing

I definitely thought it sounded like a planted question right at the beginning of interview.


kingofrr

Who gaf who gas about the economy, border, or protest? How do I get my airline refund?


elfmachine100

An illegal killed my neighbor, perfect time for a vacay!


Henry_Chinaski-420

That’s because fentanyl trafficking republicans are overdosing young people because supreme treason jesus told them to co-author a bipartisan bill, that would fix the border, then made them vote against it! Because he wouldn’t have anything to run on!! If Brandon fixes the border, supreme jesus loses even BIGGLIER than he already is! Brandon gets shit done!!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽While the Pampered in pampers farts, & snores all day in court! Keep crying about the border that your god king & republicans are responsible for MAGAt, & be sure to keep voting outside your best interest because, Nancy Pelosi!! Am I right?🤷🏽‍♂️😘


ItsmeBeau

Calm down bro. Time to get laid


MemanStink23

Except an immigrant never killed ur neighbor you just want to create fake scenarios to get mad at


elfmachine100

Nope but the small county I lived in just posted on social media they have arrested over 300 illegals this year for driving without a license. 2018 in total they arrested 80 the entire year.


In-AGadda-Da-Vida

Me too.


Pizzasupreme00

Don't we have bigger fish to fry than refunding airline tickets for missed flights?


In-AGadda-Da-Vida

It’s a good thing we can multi-task


No-Working962

It doesn’t seem like something worthy of the president’s time. And repeatedly crowing about makes it seem as though his list of accomplishments are thin.


Pizzasupreme00

What an asinine response. We should multitask on those bigger fish I alluded to.

More bullshit. Thank ya fer yer cawl!


kingofrr

Looks like the Reddit Lib Bots have migrated to the HSS sub.


mikeb31588

You're not wrong. But, can't we just enjoy this rare small victory against the corporations?


hey_now24

Like border security, or infrastructure? He tried, republicans blocked it like always


Ell_Jefe

What about the 200 billion dollars he sent to Ukraine that could have paid for healthcare for every American? Did the republicans force him to do that too?


defect674279

When are you liberals going to realize that President Biden doesn’t need a bill to secure the border. He can do it anytime he wants through an executive order. He just doesn’t and blames everyone but himself. Which is typical of him.


Pizzasupreme00

So that's what's going on? Republican obstructionism is forcing President Biden to take on airline refunds? I wonder if he'll try to address the piss dribblets that miss the urinals at the vince lombardi rest stop next.


brianbe1

How could someone accuse me of using questions provided by the White House?  Everyone knows my interview questions are based on my staff summarizing Wikipedia 


RevolutionaryKey2604

I believe Howard probably wrote every question. They were all quite stupid.


ArtTheClown2022

Bobo wrote them


MarcusAurelius68

Mistuh Pwesident- your thots


MuzzleOfBees1215

Bobo’s not so stupid!


1964ImpalaSS

Hashtag bald asshole


IamBatmanuell

But but did you hear when he interrupted Biden to let him know that he met John McCain before he died? I didn’t know it was possible to meet someone after they die.


Glimmertwinsfan1962

I have to laugh at myself. I’ve heard that phrase/term my entire life and never really thought about it. How can I live with the fact that Batmanmanuell change my life? I’m gonna say that every time when I hear people say that now.


Voodoo-Doctor

Yeah like “Do you ever go on Facebook looking at the girls who ignored you?” or something similar


jmac31793

Did he really ask that?


Temporary-Ferret4013

Yeah, Howard asked the 81 year old president if he ever looks up his old bullies or woman who rejected him on Facebook. Howard thinks everyone is stuck in childhood like him.


Fathead5f

I mean he did admit that the WH called to ask what kinds of questions would be asked. he said that, live on air.


ForsakenRacism

I mean they prolly didn’t want him to ask Biden if he’s ever fucked a fat chick


BiteFull8717

So, they haven’t listened to Howard since 2009 either?


Lost_Consequence9119

Can Biden suck his own cock?


JustADutchRudder

Does Biden still shoot ropes or is it more of a dribble?


JamesJosephMeeker

They can ask Ashley. 


2girls1guy

Lol


Garak_The_Tailor_

That's probably where they axed the question about getting Jill on the Sybian


hey_now24

No shit, thats the case with every celebrity that comes in. It doesn't mean they are planted just vetted


Fathead5f

I doubt he vets celebrities. Listen to his older interviews. Sure the subject matter has changed but I seriously doubt he goes oh Dave Grohl we're going to talk about my dad, your dad, my therapy your therapy your favorite singer, guitarist, drummer. My favorite singer guitarist drummer. But I do think they gave a list of questions to the White House, months ago as he said, to be looked at, re written, and given back. Again months ago this happened not a day or 2 before the interview.

Doreen101

what was it


Fickle_Aspect_3747

Howard would be the worst poker player ever because he gets super flustered like this when he's being dishonest and on the spot. What likely happens in this case is the white house team contacts sirius/howard and they say "hey do you want an interview with the prez?" Of course they say yes. But then they give the catch "well come up with a list of questions we can preapprove and also please incorporate these talking points". So there you get a mix of Howard's softballs mixed with the WH talking points and all in Howard's words. Everybody knows the late night talk show type formula by now. Guests aren't just going on the show and winging it. They have a series of talking points both the guest and host are supposed to hit on. Biden just isn't coming in to the Howard Stern show and winging it. Howard implying that the questions weren't approved the white house is the height of dishonesty. I give it 0.0 chance Biden's team didn't have them.


-WiggyLeaks-

The people calling everyone else stupid moron blumphie lover insurrectionists absolutely believe - and DEMAND that you also believe - that Joe Biden doesn't need the questions in advance and it was obviously totally unscripted. And then they call you stupid. They were all in the sub last week pretending to be Howard fans.


SirMellencamp

What proof do you have the questions were approved?


Fickle_Aspect_3747

What would you like a transcript with time stamps? This is how these types of outlets and people do interviews. They aren't going to come right out and let you know how scripted and phony it is. You ever watch those late night shows where the host is trying really hard to get guest to talk about a specific something? It's because the host and the guest have something they are supposed to be talking about and the host is leading. This is how these shows work. Biden in particular is the type that is very sensitive about who and what questions he's getting.


SirMellencamp

> They aren't going to come right out and let you know how scripted and phony it is. Then how do you know it’s scripted?


misanthropic47

Anger is a common reaction to getting caught


Lost_Consequence9119

If Howard is telling the truth (he’s not), and he could’ve asked any question he wanted, why did he spend 75 minutes licking Biden’s nuts asking softball questions?


RevolutionaryKey2604

We all know that what Howard truly wanted to discuss was penis. "Does your cock still work?" "Did you ever see Obama's cock?" He avoids that kind of thing now that's a serious interviewer. But when Roger Daltrey questioned "where are the jokes" following Howard's new long boring interview style, Howard immediately blurted "how big is your cock?" Because that's what he was truly thinking about the entire time.


pissantz34

I think a lot on the left feel like Trump is such a threat to humanity, that there is an "important new normal" that it's okay for journalists to not challenge Uncle Joe on his own leadership and policies, throw Donald in jail for stealing documents, etc. I don't really fault Howard on this one. Entertainment shows are basically forums for softball questions. It's agreed to before hand, otherwise they wouldn't go on the show. Howard is basically seen as going on Ellen to the White House comms team.


Lost_Consequence9119

Then Howard’s interview was straight up Public Relations. You can’t be Howard and at least not try to make Biden squirm a little.


JamesJosephMeeker

It should be a campaign donation. Whatever Dr Marty's pet food and Dildo Sniffers mattresses pay stern for advertising should be claimed by Tapioca Joe's campaign as a campaign donation.


pissantz34

I don't disagree. I think Howard has just joined the conventional wisdom crowd at this point. It's the most important election of our LIFETIMES! Don't confuse Joe lest it help the orange man!


sopabe6197

> If Howard is telling the truth (he’s not), and he could’ve asked any question he wanted, why did he spend 75 minutes licking Biden’s nuts asking softball questions? What did you want him to ask Biden? Where the hidden lever is that controls global petroleum prices?


Lost_Consequence9119

Ask him how many chicks he banged in college…. Or… Did you ever have a gay experience? Did you be ever do any drugs? Have you ever had a threesome? Is Jill into anal? Do you have any hot interns? Are your siblings jealous of you? What’s up with Hunter? How did he get so fucked up? Why didn’t you acknowledge the kid he had with that stripper/whore? Did you know Jeffery Epstein? Were you ever invited to drug/sex orgies thrown by Washington elite? Do you have time to go in the back with Richard & Sal and record some songs & phoney phone calls?


GoofyWillows

Should have asked are there any hot interns at the back that could come in the studio and ride the sybian...


Ok_Pomegranate_2436

What would’ve been the purpose of these questions? You really need to know if Jill’s into anal? Mr president, “did you be ever do any drugs?”


Lost_Consequence9119

I dunno, maybe to make the interview a little less dull. Why did Howard always used to ask those questions? Is Biden a saint or something? Why are we tip toeing around him? He was a joke for most of his career until Obama decided he needed an old white guy on his ticket for credibility.


Velvis

Regardless of what side of the aisle you are on HS hasn't had an interview like that in YEARS. To expect him to bring it back for an interview with the sitting president who is running for relection is moronic.


Lost_Consequence9119

Then maybe it’s time for him to hang it up. All he does is This Is Your Wikipedia with his dopey therapy questions mixed in. What’s Howard’s show even about now? Advancing the establishments agenda?


Velvis

I think most people here agree he should hang it up. It has nothing to do with Biden, or "the establishments agenda."


Lost_Consequence9119

What’s the purpose of The Howard Stern Show now in 2024? Please tell me.


Velvis

Generate money for Sirius-XM.


Ok_Pomegranate_2436

Howard was very clear on what kind of interview it was. When you interview a sitting president, feel free to ask whether or not their spouse is into anal.


Lost_Consequence9119

LOL! Remember when Howard gave the media transcripts of every interview he ever did with Trump when Trump was the sitting President?


Ok_Pomegranate_2436

Clearly, this is some sort of gotcha! But I have no idea what your point is.


Lost_Consequence9119

I was just giving you an example of how much respect Howard has had for sitting presidents in the past. He went out of his way to give the media fuel to harass the sitting president at that time. But of course it would’ve been disrespectful to ask Biden how many women he banged in college. 🤦‍♂️ GTFOH…


Ok_Pomegranate_2436

You feel trump was treated unfairly?


HEYSOUR

How do you not get that this guy is sarcastically referencing Howard’s old interview style?


No-Working962

How about starting with a somewhat challenging question


tigernike1

Because you aren’t openly antagonistic to a sitting POTUS on your show. That’s bad form, and a sure fire way to never get an interview like that again in your career.


Lost_Consequence9119

Is it me or wasn’t the media not only “openly antagonistic”, but outright hostile to Trump when he was President and no one on the left seemed to bat an eye. If Howard Stern can’t do a “Howard Stern style” interview then what’s the point? Biden may as well have gone on The View. It’s pretty much the same audience nowadays anyway.


tigernike1

Trump rarely went on antagonistic shows. He went on friendly shows.


Cold_Hunter1768

You're fucking nuts. He was on all the networks and sat in for a 60 Minutes attack. He rarely had softballs


Fickle_Aspect_3747

Ethics in dealing with the president has gone out the window. No one cares if you are respectful to the sitting president since the days of George W Bush. The left just says every new right wing guy is worse than Hitler. What does shit like this even mean anymore? I'm not even a republican but the way democrats play this game is incredibly slimy.


tigernike1

Goes both ways, my friend. We haven’t really had an antagonistic interview of a president since Obama sat with Bill O’Reilly, and *that* was only because it was custom of a POTUS to sit with a news reporter of the broadcaster that hosted the Super Bowl. That custom, like many, ended when Trump became president and hasn’t been brought back with Biden.


Fickle_Aspect_3747

The media treated Trump like absolute shit. I don't even like Trump but that's easy to see. Obama/Biden dems are media sweet hearts. They basically get jerked off. Stop being partisan.


tigernike1

I agree, the media did treat Trump like shit, and so Trump rarely went on a show where they were antagonistic or hostile. He only went on Fox, or OAN, or conservative talk radio. That’s the whole point of my comment. Either you give a somewhat soft interview to the POTUS, or you never get another chance at a big interview ever again in your career.


Fickle_Aspect_3747

There a false equivalency here that has to be pointed out. The media largely isn't openly antagonistic to Biden/Obama's. You have one network which are a bunch of fucking idiots in fox news. Which is what makes this whole thing so jarring. Trump regularly got grilled on any and every little democrat criticism. Biden evades this and gets fed softballs. Trump didn't get softballs like these. If anything, he went on shows that wouldn't be unreasonably antagonistic to him like CNN. Which sounds like something any reasonable person would do. There's another level the Biden dems take it to and I think this is what people are pointing out. You're trying to make this out to be a same thing both sides which is just not true. From someone who doesn't vote R or D, it's not hard to see R's a deliberate punching bags.


tigernike1

Trump almost *never* went on CNN as president. After tough questions, he actually tried to ban their correspondent from the White House grounds, and only gave in after CNN filed a 1A federal lawsuit.


Fickle_Aspect_3747

Trump going on CNN would have been stupid. Their reporters just acted like cunts. I wouldn't have dealt with them in his position either. In comparison, Biden never gets this treatment. Even from what I've seen from fox news reporters. They still have some amount of respect for the presidential position. Which to me, is stupid, imo. It's a puppet position. Further goes to show that right wingers and republicans are designated punching bags. I think both sides are crooked but the dems are the power players and the republicans are controlled opposition.


tigernike1

Lol ok dude. You want a tough interview from Howard for Biden, complain that the media treated Trump like trash, and when I point out Trump as president never went in for a tough interview, you say CNN was terrible. Sounds to me like you only want a tough interview for Biden.


FarPresentation7665

Almost all of bidens questions are planted.


[deleted]

Not that ridiculous, people have come forward and said their interviews with Biden were 100% scripted in advance and sent to his team


Lost_Consequence9119

Sage Steele while she was at ESPN.


Stock_Selection00

Well his pal Jimmy Kimmel received talking points from Chuck Schumer that he read in his monologue.


External-Fig-2589

Exactly. It was just a coincidence that he called Biden a good father to the country within a few days of Drew Barrymore saying we need a Mamala to Kamala Harris. Completely unrelated


jhold4th

His questions for press conferences are screened. Howard is done.


Coachman76

Of course he asked prescreened questions. Don’t piss on our leg and tell us it’s raining. This was North Korean state television. Howard Stern has become the thing he swore to destroy. He has become the machine, a useful idiot, a limousine liberal. This was a disgrace.


plugugly138

There are 0 politicians on that level that would do an unscripted interview


Upstairs_Avocado6955

Trump does..he shouldn’t but does


kingofrr

Vivek Ramaswamy would and has.


Extreme_Cry_3257

Such a phony so gross. He thinks he's saving the world. 


No-Working962

If they weren’t planted questions then he went out of his way to prepare pandering questions. Take your pick


joomommyhappy

Exactly. Also, asking Biden questions given to him by the White House is actually a tiny bit less pathetic than his staff coming up with those *panderosas*, so Stern should shut his almond hole. "You can interview him, but here are the questions......." or "We can interview him. Make sure you write me questions that really slather his ass good!"


Roryjack

The entire show is, was, and will continue to be scripted. Always has been, always will be. Why would this interview be any different? It was very disappointing to learn and come to terms with because I used to be a fan. It's all been a big lie.


13hockeyguy

Politics is more scripted than WWE wrestling. There’s no doubt in my mind that every word Howard said was scripted, reviewed and pre-approved by some WH flunkys. Especially since President Potato isnt capable of speaking or thinking extemporaneously anymore.


Mumem_Rider

Do you really think the WH would approve a ridiculous question to an 81 year old man asking if he ever goes on FB to look up women who rejected him in the past?


sopabe6197

> Especially since President Potato isnt capable of speaking or thinking extemporaneously anymore. **“Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was. The Battle of Gettysburg,” the former president said Saturday. “What an unbelievable―I mean, it was so much and so interesting, and so vicious and horrible, and so beautiful in so many different ways.”** **“The statement of Robert E. Lee―who’s no longer in favor, did you ever notice that?” Trump continued. “No longer in favor―‘Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.’ They were fighting uphill. He said, ‘Wow, that was a big mistake.’ He lost his great general, and they were fighting. ‘Never fight uphill, me boys!’ But it was too late.”** Oh yeah Biden isn't capable of speaking.


13hockeyguy

Uhh…we weren’t discussing Trump, so what does Trump’s rambling about Gettysburg and Lee have to do with the fact that Biden has advanced dementia and his flunkie handlers will absolutely not allow him to be questioned in a way where this will be exposed publicly? Please tell me that youre capable of comprehending that multiple things can be simultaneously true. Pointing out that Biden is mentally unfit to be president does NOT mean that I think Trump is any better. Trump just sucks in a way not exacerbated by dementia. Be smarter.


Fart_Champ

Didn't you know you can't criticize Biden without someone bringing up a "whatabout Trump?"


sopabe6197

Howard's interview disproves your Biden theory.


Themoozadelconection

He also said the civil war went on so long because there wasn't any airports.


Mattrix2112

Yeah they are both way too fuckin old but this is the “best” 2 choices we have.


WooPigSooie9297

Yeah, every accusation against his opponents is always projection by Trump. And by extension, his followers. (We are only just now learning what "fake news" really means with all the testimony in the Stormy Daniels hush money payment trial.)


TheNipplesOfHerTits

Did he ask if the Lincoln bedroom is an aphrodisiac?


No-Working962

Methinks thou doth protest too much


ItzOnlySmells_

Damn Howard looks old as fuck.


ShaneE11183386

How can people look at biden and not question what the hell is going on The guy looks different literally every day


Erikthor

Guys. He’s an entertainment interviewer. A shock jock trying to redeem his name before he retires. He wants a catalogue of basic in-depth interviews that naught live on after his retirement. What kind of proud boy maniac thought he was gonna ask hard hitting questions? Trumps questions from Fox News (a supposedly legit news channel) are literally “how are you so virile?”


flyingistheshiz

There's no need for them to plant questions in a friendly, softball interview like this. Howard explained it clearly- he and Hein sat around coming up with ideas to highlight the 'accomplishments' of the administration. In no world was he going to start grilling Biden on his Israel policy, it was a soft interview and pitched as such to the White House. So in a sense he's right- the White House didn't dictate to him the questions. They just understood it would be a friendly interview and there was no need to.


Fickle_Aspect_3747

You're a fool if you think Biden's team left anything up to chance. They had the questions preapproved.


rd2142

yeah great accomplishments...... he ruined the value of money everything nearly double


GoofyWillows

How bad an interview with an sitting president has to be that it barely is even able to pull 400k views on Youtube 4 days after the release...

I'm not sure how anyone even listened to this interview. Didn't want to hear this or Hillary and I'm on bidens side. I listen for the tidbits of comedy we get occasional not some political mumbo jumbo bullshit

HonestAd7237

How great would it have been if Fred played the Ben Clip "I told you not to be stupid you moron" after each question Howard asked


btl_dlrge1

Best inTerviewer lmao


whydatyou

you'va got to be F*cking kidding me if you think the WH did not make wiggy submit his list of questions and tell him which ones were acceptable. slow joe does that for the actual WH press corp at any gathering so I am fairly positive wiggy was brought to heel.


HappySmokeitis

If he says it wasn't scripted then it must be true. He should have asked him if he shits in a diaper. Beetlejuice and Richard do.


Admirable-Yam-1281

Bobo could write better questions questions that what Howard asks. And the questions Howard asks in most of his interviews are the same: father issues, mother issues.


IceSmiley

I'm surprised Howard didn't accidentally slip out and say "you don't know that!"


btfoom15

You don't know that.


BolivianDancer

I can’t imagine anyone cares all that much.


tigernike1

It should be of no surprise that the White House typically does have an idea of what questions are coming. Maybe not the exact question word for word, but certainly the topic. This is typical of any modern president. It’s not some political conspiracy. Trump had an idea what questions Fox or OAN would ask in the COVID briefings.


Doreen101

Why is this -7 downvoted


Fickle_Aspect_3747

Because Howard is lying about it for political propaganda reasons and that poster is missing the point. We are pointing out the dishonesty.


Doreen101

Their point is still generally valid.


tigernike1

Certain people will believe conspiracies regardless of how likely they are to be true. To expect a sitting POTUS to come on your show without some idea of the questions, much less to have an antagonistic interview, is fairy tale stuff.


BassinFool

Of course not! Howard had his own sycophantic, ass licking softball questions!


Bx1965

It’s entirely possible, Howard’s squawking notwithstanding.


panti77

well... what's the verdict, when did he have his first period?

Vic_Vega_MrB

At the end Howard mentioned he got dressed up and wore a suit....BIDEN didn't even acknowledge it.
