Brent Stover just tipped off he may be the Nick replacement.

**ARM** · 01-11-2013, 12:33 AM

I've been kind of lying in the weeds all depressed about the changes and this isn't really helping. While I was on hold tonight (and never got on) I heard Brent Stover slip or just blurt out "OK DAN...WAIT TILL ARTIE COMES IN MONDAY AND WE'LL HEAR ALL ABOUT YOUR LIFE IN CHICAGO TOGETHER!"

He says something else in the same vein subsequently as well. Now Brent's a nice guy, nice n safe, nice n milquetoast, and Artie clearly needs a straight man mouthpiece type because Nick couldn't have been a better cohost and fit, at least for me. But this hot-Stover-league may or may not be a temp job, I guess we find out for good Monday????

Did Brent fill in on his own tonight arm? I didn't get a chance to listen.

Yes, he was essentially by himself but Dan Felato, Shane, and even the twins had a more active and forced vocal role for him to bounce off. Needless to say I've seen better chemistry from Iced T and Belzer on LAW & ORDER.

Oh dear Lord....

I for one did not HATE Brent on the show like everyone else seemed to. I mean, if you REALLY want the Artie Lange show then a guy like Brent is sort of perfect cause he keeps his mouth shut for the most part.

HOWEVER, nick was FUNNY. At times. Brent is well, not. But hey, we'll see how it goes.

Oh jeez, not that boring, stiff, smug cunt that the twins are all smitten with? He's like Nick Jr. without the funny. What a sham..

**shitcunt** · 01-11-2013, 12:59 AM

The Artie show is gonna crash and burn. Might be fun.

**JB50** · 01-11-2013, 01:01 AM

If they put a sports guy in there the show is done.

Sports guys are not funny.

This +1

Unless they want to bring in a rotating guest host, or have Artie host his own "talk show" type format (which I think would be genius), this won't fly.

Of course he was going to be - jesus fuckin christ you choochs need to just start listening to me instead of being such dumbshits. And artie needs a straight man. Pasty ass will actually let artie tell stories, now can he take getting ripped on, that will determine what happens

**mattzane227** · 01-11-2013, 01:56 AM

Please anyone but him. He's so terrible. Only he finds himself remotely interesting.

**KillVampires** · 01-11-2013, 01:58 AM

No way Artie finishes the show. MadTV. Sirius. Now this. Artie is such a fuckup.

**mpa** · 01-11-2013, 01:59 AM

such a bunch of morons, the host of that show isn't supposed to try to one-up Artie lange, or shoe-horn in his comedy. The Rick and Artie show didn't work precisely because of that.

Good conspiracy. Well....decent at least. My theory is that one of the hosts is using heroin so the other host walked away from the show. I won't reveal which one though...though you're probably smart enough to figure it out on your own.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to piss in a trash bin, and then get arrested in Paris. I also should mention that I have the flu. I'm sober. I swear.

I agree, but I do think that at least one of the times Artie was out, it was because of the current situation, not because he was sick or high.
