About this listen

For the first time, Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling opens up about his life as a cast member and head writer for the comedy powerhouse The Howard Stern Show. In The Joke Man: Bow to Stern, Jackie tells of his beginnings as a working comedian and writer and his climb to the top on The Howard Stern Show. Jackie saw it all, and in The Joke Man: Bow to Stern he shares personal stories as well a look from behind the scenes at one of the highest-rated radio shows of all time. You'll also get his take on his falling out with Howard and the show, and plenty of the raunchy, laugh-out-loud humor that Jackie "The Joke Man" is famous for.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy as "The Joke Man" riffs on his one-of-a-kind career in show business, Howard Stern and the gang, and his very unique life - an American success story like no other.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Vintage Jokeman, with a refreshing twist

If you like Jackie, you'll love this memoir. Great to hear his take on the events everyone is curious about, and to hear about his illustrious career away from the show. PARTICULARLY from the horse's as... I mean, mouth.

Could be tighter, but overall fulfilling.

Sounds like it'd be a better read than listen (the way it's written); goes into great detail about his contact negotiations and is very candid.
if you're a Stern fan you'll be satisfied by the end.

Meh..

Spice up your next party by playing this audiobook and taking a drink every time you hear “needless to say”.. You won’t believe how quickly you get wasted. Otherwise it’s an okay listen. It’s just a lot of Jackie telling you how funny he is. Gets old pretty quickly.
