He still does a good show even though I can't relate to him anymore. I could only dream that I could have his life.

As for cancelling Sirius XM after Howard leaves, I doubt I'll be doing that. Regular radio just doesn't do it for me and I'm constantly on the road for work. I'm attached to a lot of the music stations like the Underground Garage, Hard Attack and the Punk Channel. And what can I say, I'm still a fan of Bubba (even tho I think he might leave if Howard does).

Personally, I think Howard will stay. But he'll probably be doing an afternoon show probably three days a week (Tues, Weds. & Fri), and will probably be doing only 6 shows per month. I'd be cool with that.

I only wish that as a host he would inform us - the fans - that he's taking a week off. Just be honest, that's all. Is that too much to ask?

If Howard does leave, I doubt Bubba will follow. His show is only in the Tampa Area, but if his show really takes off and get's syndicated, then it's bye bye. That's a HUGE possibility too. Terrestrial radio is looking for another "Howard" and that's Bubba! He also has Stern fans - like myself - that'll follow him. SIRIUS XM will drop the ball if they don't keep him.

As for Howard leaving...I doubt that too. He needs to be on the radio, his radio ego is way too big. The private Howard and the radio Howard is like a Yin and Yang. If one of them is missing, then his world will crash. Like I said, I think he'll be doing afternoons and maybe three live shows every other week.
