Now 65, he&#8217;s in a new phase of his life and while he still maintains some of his outrageous (some might say offensive) traits, he is one of the most successful interviewers in broadcasting. In this book, he shares the best of the best all with extensive introductions to each interview that share his own personal growth throughout the years. Even if you hate Howard, take a look at some of the interviews. You won&#8217;t be disappointed.<\/p>\n<p>About <a href=\"http:\/\/evergreen.noblenet.org\/eg\/opac\/record\/4319949?locg=1\">the book<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Over his unrivaled four-decade career in radio, Howard Stern has interviewed thousands of personalities\u2014discussing sex, relationships, money, fame, spirituality, and success with the boldest of bold-faced names. But which interviews are his favorites? It\u2019s one of the questions he gets asked most frequently.\u00a0<em>Howard Stern Comes Again<\/em>\u00a0delivers his answer.<\/p>\n<p>This book is a feast of conversation and more, as between the lines Stern offers his definitive autobiography\u2014a magnum opus of confession and personal exploration. Tracy Morgan opens up about his near-fatal car crash. Lady Gaga divulges her history with cocaine. Madonna reminisces on her relationship with Tupac Shakur. Bill Murray waxes philosophical on the purpose of life. Jerry Seinfeld offers a master class on comedy. Harvey Weinstein denies the existence of the so-called casting couch. An impressive array of creative visionaries weigh in on what Stern calls \u201cthe climb\u201d\u2014the stories of how they struggled and eventually prevailed. As he writes in the introduction, \u201cIf you\u2019re having trouble finding motivation in life and you\u2019re looking for that extra kick in the ass, you will find it in these pages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Interspersed throughout are rare selections from the\u00a0<em>Howard Stern Show<\/em>\u00a0archives with Donald Trump that depict his own climb: transforming from Manhattan tabloid fixture to reality TV star to president of the United States. Stern also tells of his\u00a0<em>Moby Dick<\/em>-like quest to land an interview with Hillary Clinton in the run-up to the 2016 election\u2014one of many newly written revelations from the author. He speaks with extraordinary candor about a variety of subjects, including his overwhelming insecurity early in his career, his revolutionary move from terrestrial radio to SiriusXM, and his belief in the power of psychotherapy.<\/p>\n<p>As Stern insightfully notes in the introduction: \u201cThe interviews collected here represent my best work and show my personal evolution. But they don\u2019t just show\u00a0<em>my<\/em> evolution. Gathered together like this, they show the evolution of popular culture over the past quarter century.\u201d&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lot of folks have a very set view of Howard Stern.
