Howard Stern Moves to Satellite Radio in 2006

  • 1 min read

In January of 2006, Howard Stern will finally be able to legally tell the FCC to fuck off. That’s when Stern will move to censor-free Sirius satellite radio taking a five year, $500 million deal.

With just 600,000 subscribers, Sirius has a fraction of Stern’s current 12 million listener base but his move is sure to quickly and dramatically increase that figure. While this may be a welcome move for both Stern and Sirius, the censorship of commercial radio actually added to the allure of the show. Many times, it’s what we can’t say and can’t see that makes those things all the more desirable. With everything hanging out on satellite, the desire may be less potent.

Behavioral scientists found that people without children develop a relationship to mortality that is psychologically distinct. Without biological continuation, they must construct meaning through contribution, connection, and presence rather than lineage, and that construction is both harder and, when successful, more intentional than most people realize.

I’m 65 and my son moved back at 32 and I want to be honest that it was simultaneously one of the most loving things I’ve done and one of the hardest, not because of anything he did but because I’d spent three years learning who I was in an empty house and found that I wasn’t entirely ready to stop being her, and holding both of those things at once was more complicated than any parenting book prepared me for

I chose law school because my parents cleaned houses and I wanted them to be proud. Now I’m 38 making $300K a year and I hate every single morning, but I can’t tell anyone because complaining about a successful life you hate sounds like privilege, not pain

Behavioral scientists found that the improvement strategy with the highest long-term success rate isn’t goal-setting or habit-stacking or accountability — it’s environmental design, the practice of making the default option the one you want to choose, which removes willpower from the equation entirely

Psychology says the reason generational arguments feel so personal is that they aren’t really about economics or housing or work ethic. They’re about whether your suffering counted, and no one stays calm when someone implies the answer is no.

Children who grew up in homes where chaos was normal often become adults who are capable of handling anything in a crisis but genuinely can’t maintain basic routines when life is calm because their entire system was calibrated for emergency response
