Howard Stern

Known for his in-your-nose and brutal commentary, Howard Stern has been one of America’s most well-known radio personalities. His radio show has been ongoing for nearly 40 years since 1986, with its highest listenership of about 20 million people. He became one of the highest-paid radio personalities when he signed on a $500 million deal with SiriusXM. He also became the most fined radio host, with $2.5 million accumulated over the years. To his credit, he has also ventured into other mediums, including late-night TV, books, and music. Thanks to these, he has described himself as the King of All Media.


Today, Stern remains active on his show. In 2020, he renewed his contract with SiriusXM to extend his show for five years. In addition, he has made several appearances on TV, such as in America’s Got Talent, where he replaced Piers Morgan as a judge for three years until 2015.
