"Gilbert Gottfried sits in for The News" (December 6, 2005 -

Howard took a call from a guy who said he doesn't want to hear Gilbert Gottfried on the show anymore... That's when Howard had Gilbert walk into the studio. The caller asked Gilbert when he's going to die, he hates him. Howard eventually hung up on him because he was cursing and going too far with his rant.

Howard promised that this would be Gilbert's final appearance on his terrestrial radio show. He wanted to get in one more time to plug his DVD which is available at GilbertGottfried.com. Gary came in and said that Gilbert has been adding a lot of little things to his web site and now he has a fan club link. Howard spent a few minutes talking to Gilbert about changing his name to something easier like Gil or something like that. Gilbert never thought about doing that and he's never asked his mother why she named him that. He did say he notices that in movies they always name the nerdy character ''Gilbert.''

Howard asked Gilbert about his father because they never hear anything about him. Gilbert revealed that his father owned a hardware store. He said that no one in his life was very warm toward him and everyone was cold. Howard wondered if Gilbert was ''Gilbert Jr.'' or if he even remembered what his name was. Gilbert just laughed and joked about everything. Gilbert said he was only 19 when his father passed away. He was never asked to join his father's hardware business but he would go down to the store and work for him once in a while.

Howard was trying to ask Gilbert serious questions about his father but Gilbert kept laughing at everything. It was very odd. Gilbert said that there really isn't much difference between the way he is now and how he was then so his parents knew not to ask him to join the family business. Howard asked Gilbert if his father ever beat him or anything like that. Gilbert laughed and laughed throughout the interview.

Howard then played some clips from Gilbert's past appearances. Many of his segments can't be played on the show anymore because of the content. Howard is looking forward to having him on the new show once he moves because he'll be able to do anything.

The first clip they played was where Gilbert and Howard filled up 28 minutes of answering machine space on Jerry Seinfeld's answering machine. Gilbert was doing an impression of Jerry while Howard talked about how Jerry was dissing his show by not coming on after all of the support they gave him. Gary remembers Jerry calling him and telling him that he had listened to the whole 28 minutes and laughed his ass off while he was in an airport across the country.

Wendy the Retard called in and told Gilbert that she bought a ''boot-legged'' movie of his and it sucked

Gary had another great Gilbert moment from the show. This clip was the whole reason that Dennis Miller will no longer talk to them. Dennis was on the phone that day and mentioned that his 22 months old son was with him. Gilbert then asked the 22 month old what he was wearing and how big his testicles were. He was also telling the kid to put his hand in his diaper and rub and to do some other things that Miller wasn't too happy with. Miller actually put the kid on the phone for a short time. Gilbert and Howard continued to talk about the kid even after Miller got off the phone. Gilbert was in a very dark place that day. Howard asked him if that's something that Gilbert really feels. Gilbert joked that it's the way he feels every day.

After the break Howard played a track from the William Hung Christmas CD ''Hung for the Holidays'' and then got back to Gilbert Gottfried. He had one last clip of their favorite Gilbert Gottfried moments. This clip was where Gilbert goofed on Abe Hershfield who was calling in from jail. Abe told a lame joke so Gilbert asked him to tell the joke over and over and over and over again. Howard egged Gilbert on to see how many times he could get Abe to repeat the joke. Gilbert got Abe to tell the story at least 8 times during the call. After playing the clip Howard said that it had to be one of the best moments in radio history. He thought it was hilarious.

Gary had one more great Gilbert moment which was when he and Amy Heckerling's assistant were arguing about what Gilbert did to her and Amy's daughter. Howard played that clip and thanked Gilbert for the many years of great shows. He knows that many of his fans hate him but he still loves to have him on the show. Gary said there were other great moments that Gilbert was part of but they can't play them anymore. One of those moments was when he spent a half hour talking about Robin's ''big, black, Klugge.'' That was as much of the conversation as he could mention on the show.

Gary the Retard called in and said that he bought Gilbert Gottfried's DVD and it sucked so he wants his money back.
