I barely listen to Artie outside of the stern show , but I have heard his “Howard pulled me aside and gave me a live mic” story at least 4 times . No exaggeration.
AJ, thank you for punching john because it opened up the door for artie to come in for almost a decade of classic radio on stern. i can only imagine how fast stern would have fallen if he had hired AJ for the jackie chair
Kind of sad to hear two burned out guys talking about their glory days - and AJ only had about 1.5 glory days... even Stuttering John will only speak via FB to AJ
About Chuck Zito hitting A.J.: If the article did not get the story straight, why didn't A.J. explain that to Chuck? And doesn't Chuck know sometimes a news story can get the facts wrong?
Artie's High in this Video. I can tell from Watching Stern Show when he is High his eyes go in like he has a Lazy Eye. I hope Artie can fight his demons he seems like a really good guy with a huge Heart but continues to hurt himself. Hope & prayers to Artie.
I can't imagine Benza being on Howard Stern. One thing that does not come to mind is "funny" when thinking anout Benza. I just went and watched the clip of him hitting John, and it wasn't a big deal, and it looks to me like John might have pounded him had it not been for all of the people seperating them. Didn't realize how much bigger John is than AJ. I always hate it when people jump in and the guy who got hit first never gets his shot, lol. At least let him get one in before breaking them up.
Well, let's just hope Mr. Benza doesn't end up on a newly Mysteries and Scandals! I hope he continues to do better! I feel as if he brought some pizzazz to the show that he once hosted on E! Still love him, even though he's an ass!
Sorry AJ although I think Stut Joe is a maroon. He set AJ up, got him mad enough to hit him knowing he would be fired. AJ took John's spot permanently on mic when John gets called in once in a while. John was jealous. Envious of AJ
I just can't watch a talk show where the moderator asks the guest a question and then when he answers the moderator breaks in and starts talking or asks a different question, then it starts call over again! Let the guest answer!! Stop interrupting!!
Interesting that Artie and A.J. compare Howard Stern to Bruce Springsteen. Being a 53-year old guy who's lived in New Jersey his whole life, the two cultural phenomena (yes, that is the plural of phenomenon) to which I've had a ringside seat were Jersey's Bruce Springsteen and Long Island's Howard Stern.
ACE PODCASt...wetmouth syndrome gets fuckin interesting when u shout down the mike and withhold info about Harvey E>T>C. Ace history and 1 day ul write a biography when us ordinary fucks know who ui are away from ur ego.
AJ seems like he had a stroke... Part of his face seems paralyzed and he seems to slur his words. Did he have a stroke?? It's sad... He kind of went from sex symbol to this. Hope he's doing good.
MrRaretunes I think he's always been a little bitch, just now it's pathetic bc he's too old to get over it. This "interview" was so depressing. Two guys who only can talk abt their glory days.
Eileen D He has his good points like performing benefits for his friends and friends of the show but yes he is a typical spoiled lil Italian mamas boy.His sister and mother are always doing things for a grown man.Pathetic. His bitchy side was with his girlfriends,he couldn't handle that Dana after 2 years was dating another man.Also when they had "date Artie" game on the show he was such a friggen baby when it came to the other girls sex lives,he couldn't handle that they had been around a bit,not a lot even,but he almost expected a virgin like gal,that is a bitchy man in my books. I used to be able to handle him but since he has began his bithin about Howard and blamed Howard basically for his addiction by keeping him employed,even though Howard tried many times to get him help which Artie avoided and even lied about,I can't stand his bitchy attitude.
![Richard Lewis confronts Artie about his drug problem [Jan 2009]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/BBpajcV8888/mqdefault.jpg)
AJ Benza, THE tough, old school, neighborhood guy who you want to talk to if you want to hear about Gwyneth Paltrow's beauty routine.
I love AJ in Mysteries and Scandals
This was 7 years ago when AJ was 50 lbs lighter and Artie still had a nose.
Cocaine and glass oxy is a hella of a drug…
I barely listen to Artie outside of the stern show , but I have heard his “Howard pulled me aside and gave me a live mic” story at least 4 times . No exaggeration.
“Me and Norm…”
AJ, thank you for punching john because it opened up the door for artie to come in for almost a decade of classic radio on stern. i can only imagine how fast stern would have fallen if he had hired AJ for the jackie chair
There’s nothing classic about Stern after Jackie.
He was never up for the chair that’s like John thinking he was gunna get the chair. All these dummies think the chair was gunna be theirs
Jackie had already left by this point and John stayed for another few years.
@@Teeveepicksures Yes. At the time AJ was competing for what was referred to as the Jackie chair.
Glad to see Artie beating the odds, keep it up my man!
yea i like artie man his podcast is dope
not anymore
Artie makes every story abt him.
Good to see these guys doing their own thing on their terms and breaking free from the institution
Aj has more hair now then when he was on the stern show
I love Artie's completely tangential, incoherent rambling sports analogies...
that guy in the middle needs to stop talking so much
Artie is on blow
Absolutely
Howard’s rating were in the 10s of millions for at least 10 years. TV prime time would beg for ratings like that. He was the show to do.
Kind of sad to hear two burned out guys talking about their glory days - and AJ only had about 1.5 glory days... even Stuttering John will only speak via FB to AJ
Gary getting collateral damage with that yelp was hilarious
He hit gary way more than he hit john
Did AJ Benza have a stroke or a root canal? He sounds strange
He is from up north, they sound like they were raised by deaf parents most of the time him being no exception
AJ reminds me of every guy with “Entrepreneur” in their bio
education: school of hard knocks
works at: self employed
good job there jon richie way to earn that paycheck
eye candy for the ladies
Wow what happen to aj.?
Imagine a gossip columnist posing as a tough guy
Lol it is odd
Did AJ have a stroke or is he a little drunk?
Punched in the face by Chuck Zito.
He is from up north, they naturally sound like they were raised by deaf parents
Heroin
Bell’s palsy
part 2?
WHERES PART 2?
coke stroke
Yup. Stuttering John has had TWO of them. And is still drinking and doing coke every day. Death wish.
Is part 2 up?
Good NY city stories
Did A.J. have a stroke?
Great Show
Artie is a great interviewer
The guy in the middle is thinking...who the hell is this ?
Two casualties of the stern show.
This guy straight up threw a sucker punch. They are rewriting history. Look it up
you see a look in arties eyes the first time aj shouts EXCUSE ME! its like of shit i riled him i knew this was gonna happen LMAO!!!
john ritchie...watching a tennis match...
My God, Benza doesn't really think anyone outside the Stern fanbase is aware of him slapping Stuttering John does he? Holy shit.
talk about delusional.
Did this guy have a stroke or did chuck ruin him forever
i first saw AJ on mysteries and scandals, a great show. and he had to be one of the most no bullshit hosts. almost insensitive at times lol
Did AJ have a stroke he seems off
probably due to the zito punch
About Chuck Zito hitting A.J.: If the article did not get the story straight, why didn't A.J. explain that to Chuck? And doesn't Chuck know sometimes a news story can get the facts wrong?
Aj so fkin drunk, everything goes on the artie lange show 😂
Stop interrupting Artie
I love Artie but it seems like he interrupted a lot of guests on this show before they could answer questions
you were looking away and suckered punched em, you an Artie are perfect for eachother
Love how Aj the guest starts telling his stuttering John incident, then Artie the host cuts him off immediately to tell his story
Norm got Artie his job not AJ ....
Artie's High in this Video. I can tell from Watching Stern Show when he is High his eyes go in like he has a Lazy Eye.
I hope Artie can fight his demons he seems like a really good guy with a huge Heart but continues to hurt himself.
Hope & prayers to Artie.
Who's the quiet guy?
riggsmurtauh I think that's Jon Ritchie. Ex football player, he's on ESPN once and a while.
Is AJ wearing a wig here?
I can't imagine Benza being on Howard Stern. One thing that does not come to mind is "funny" when thinking anout Benza.

It was a failed sucker punch
Well, let's just hope Mr. Benza doesn't end up on a newly Mysteries and Scandals! I hope he continues to do better! I feel as if he brought some pizzazz to the show that he once hosted on E! Still love him, even though he's an ass!
*Guy in the middle* - "who's Howard Stern?"
@1:59 Ugh, another "true" story.
Does AJ has a stroke?
you idiot..
Do you hear the way he talks you idiot?
I'm going to learn you on how to put a sentence together.
3:44 is all I can take of these two burnouts. Bye!
Everyone looks so... grey & dying. 😞 Getting old sucks.
Comparing Howard Stern to Bruce Springsteen is like comparing Charles Manson to Mother Theresa.
As a metaphor, no. Howard Stern is responsible for the overhaul of the entire radio industry - he was a Genius.
Sorry AJ although I think Stut Joe is a maroon. He set AJ up, got him mad enough to hit him knowing he would be fired. AJ took John's spot permanently on mic when John gets called in once in a while. John was jealous. Envious of AJ
It was a sucker punch, AJ is a coward to not admit it, be a man and admit it.
I love you
RIP ARTIE
I just can't watch a talk show where the moderator asks the guest a question and then when he answers the moderator breaks in and starts talking or asks a different question, then it starts call over again! Let the guest answer!! Stop interrupting!!
Stuttering John vs aj benza
stop stop stop...stutterin john would not back down and tuff guy Benza did...I remember that show like it was yesterday.
A.J. Faga !
Interesting that Artie and A.J. compare Howard Stern to Bruce Springsteen.

he sounds a lot clearer on here than his podcast...his mouth is like spiderman of spit
ACE PODCASt...wetmouth syndrome gets fuckin interesting when u shout down the mike and withhold info about Harvey E>T>C. Ace history and 1 day ul write a biography when us ordinary fucks know who ui are away from ur ego.
jackie and billy west Were goats. artie in his prime LOST TO THEM
Stuttering John would have kick AJ's butch ass!!!
AJ seems like he had a stroke... Part of his face seems paralyzed and he seems to slur his words. Did he have a stroke?? It's sad... He kind of went from sex symbol to this. Hope he's doing good.
+myPAINisSELFchosen85 Thank you!!
I try hard to like AJ but its just too hard.
Totally agree... he's his own worst enemy
There goes Artie talking about himself again,interrupting everyone's stories to talk about his lame druggy life.
Eileen D he has devolved into a 16 year old lil whining back talkin/stabbin bitch.Sad
MrRaretunes I think he's always been a little bitch, just now it's pathetic bc he's too old to get over it. This "interview" was so depressing. Two guys who only can talk abt their glory days.
Eileen D He has his good points like performing benefits for his friends and friends of the show but yes he is a typical spoiled lil Italian mamas boy.His sister and mother are always doing things for a grown man.Pathetic.

I used to be able to handle him but since he has began his bithin about Howard and blamed Howard basically for his addiction by keeping him employed,even though Howard tried many times to get him help which Artie avoided and even lied about,I can't stand his bitchy attitude.
Thank god he did, we'd have to hear this guy talk about a slap to an intern from 20 years ago... A fucking gain!
Why did Artie ever have Jon Ritchie on his show? He's quite possibly the most dull human being in the world
He’s actually fantastic at sports radio…this just wasn’t within his lane whatsoever
@@stevescott3735 Lol, no it definitely wasn't in his wheelhouse with Artie
plain And simple you can't hit anybody..get over it AJ.
Jon didn't even say a thing
BONNEE MCGEE
would a flat ronnie work.
Got alpha male'd by AJ.
AJ was horrible on the show. He would just say random shit thinking it was funny as hell. It was a tumble weed moment every time he opened his mouth.
The guy in the middle is just sitting there it's weird and embarrassing, I wouldn't sit there even if they paid me-- do something for god's sake!!
Benza is still wrong & making excuses. Stern Show was 85% busting-balls back in that day.
He can't run a show on his own. Sorry Art.
He is so delusional. Ironic entertainment.
Artie was a terrible talk show host. They're talking about AJ slapping stuttering John and he derails the conversation with some baseball story.
You’ll be ok AJ . WTF Eva happened to this goof , his career disappeared more than his hair ??
he's a jerk
This guy is a liar.
