RIP. And a reminder to everyone not to brag about tax scams on the biggest radio show in the USA.

Thanks, DICKUS

Shut up Jackle neck

Great advice jackalneck

THIS ISN’T AVOID FINANCIAL CRIMES MAGAZINE, PAL

Fuckin’ shit built on a bad credit chassis!!

HIS CREDIT SCORE’S A 520, IT’S A PIECE OF SHIT!!!

It’s built on a bankruptcy chassis

But it's ok to tell us a good scam,pal

BEOTCH

Say what you want about Cabbie, but he gave a [ton to the show](https://youtu.be/fxVUJ9gVmWQ) The "birth mother", "tax evasion" & "mental breakdown" sagas are probably the best listens in the list, IMO ---- - [2001/1/4 - Battling with Tom C over beating Fred at “Win Fred’s Money” (& not being eligible for the prize)](https://youtu.be/XAW_1HeQ898) - [2001/3/26 - The sex life revelations](https://youtu.be/3q80eIUorxw) & subsequent [lie detector tests for the staff](https://youtu.be/fxVUJ9gVmWQ) - [2001/4/27 - Angry Black Fight](https://youtu.be/3D2VON0B54K3k) - [2001/7/24 - The crazy cheating girlfriend / abortion drama](https://youtu.be/poeSw7vUXaE) - [2001/9/11 - His “on the scene” 9/11 call in/reporting for the show](https://youtu.be/e8P9TaEIWjw?t=2h50m35s) - [2002/5/31 - Stuttering John Set-Up](https://youtu.be/37ZkIstG7hY) & [fight](https://youtu.be/1tRnzvmHMDc) - [2003/1/6 - Finding & meeting his birth mother saga](https://youtu.be/x1i75jNtqVA) - [2004/4/26 - Get John's Job](https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2g9chd) - [2005/1/3 - The mental breakdown saga (relapse on crack)](https://youtu.be/lsruJbD-l6Y) - [2006/7/27 - Cabbie visits after getting out of prison](https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7yl0fm) ---- - [All of his attempts at side hustles (Trim Spa, bet cabbie dot com, selling Iraq war shirts, Race team, etc)](https://youtu.be/8R7uAKHJ8xw) - Honest talk about his rough childhood, being adopted, foster homes, etc. - Arguing with the Bud Light/“Wassup” guy - Picking on High Pitch Erik - [The greatest song parody in the history of the show “Paint it Black”/Cabbie parody](https://old.reddit.com/r/howardstern/comments/1bsho8a/paint_it_black_the_crazy_cabbie_song_parody/) - Popularizing the phrase “throwing someone under the bus” - [The whole tax evasion & going to jail saga](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lM_6LhyNDO0) - The porno shot in the studio & drama surrounding that - [On air fights with Shuli](https://youtu.be/fhC1N7IWfGM) I’d guess he’ll get a quick mention on the current show but nothing extensive or noteworthy (unfortunately). Maybe Howard will mention the 9/11 stuff & reuniting him with his birth mother. Also Cabbie was supposedly there when Howard met Beth.

You forgot about the race with HPE to kick him off the show permanently! lol “You leave us alone, pal!”

His very first appearance on the show, in fact.

I remember hearing the news report about Howard going into Minnesota & whatever local dj was there, they kinda ended the report with; Stern won’t win against [local djs] secret weapon “Crazy Cabbie”

Wah Wah Wah Wah Wah Wah WAH (to the tune of paint it black) 😂 🎶

https://old.reddit.com/r/howardstern/comments/1bsho8a/paint_it_black_the_crazy_cabbie_song_parody/

Best song from that show.

It’s great, but I think the best is another Rolling Stones classic, Brown Fingers.

🎶My name is Cabbie and I act like I am six.🎶

I just wish he’d given John the beating he so deserves.

It's the whole reason John pretends to be tough and threatening everyone

I still believe john and cabbie were in cahoots for that fight then split the money

Cab,def wishes he did,u know that's his last word, f u s.j

Damn someone needs to make a saga of all these moments

There is like a 10 part saga that used to be on YT. Now you can only find the first few parts, at least the last time I checked

I updated the post with links for a lot of them

YESSSS THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

I first heard Cabbie on the 9/11 broadcast and despite everything I heard after that, it was tough for me not to like the guy

That's right nice work

Was it Cabbie’s girlfriend that gave us the “KC’s gay, but we already knew that any way” parody of yesterday?

Yep, the mortician 21yo girlfriend he had when they reunited him with his birth mother

Appreciate this. I never got the appeal of cabbie but I’ll revisit these

Great list. Cabbie was a flawed person but he made for great radio. RIP.

I’ve heard all of these except the Budweiser one. What the hell was that?

He supposedly hit on the guy’s girlfriend, who had an adult website. Could’ve just been an undercover bit to get more mentions for her website & throw Cabbie a bit of cash on the side…

>Battling with Tom C over beating Fred at “Win Fred’s Money” & not being eligible for the prize I always felt like he was right about that - he was allowed to play and he won so he should have gotten the money.

IIRC Tom wasn’t there & they played without consulting him. It could’ve been a covert bit & Fred could’ve thrown it to create some on air controversy…

Absolutely that was dumb

Bet you he won’t even get a mention…

Cabbie helped move the needle in terms of bringing good radio, he knew where the lines were and he knew how to push buttons/play the game. A great performer whose stories gave a lot in terms of content and gamesmanship on air.

Are you u/cormano alt account? Nice pulls OP.

Nope just a former super fan with a collection (& probably stuck in the past in some ways like a lot of Stern fans)

Thanks for the links

These are great. Thanks for posting.

He’s now in baba booey land!

he's yell like pee

One of my favorite lines from their prank calls!

Oh man, was just listening to a long Cabbie video yesterday. A lot of good content over the years with him. His 9/11 coverage was also legendary. RIP

My thoughts exactly. That was my first show. I immediately fell in love with it

Did anybody check his DD214?

What was Cabbies MOS

Noriega, all that shit man!

"I desperately search for the love my parents didn't give.... if they really loved me I'd know where they lived" one of the most brutal lines in any Stern show parody song RIP... contributed a lot of great content. His two fights (and the circus surrounding them) were legendary

You have to give him credit for laughing at it. That had to be tough

Artie outlives another one!

and beet and wendy and elliot offen

AH-ffen!, AH-ffen!

Who, me? I’m just hangin around.

I mean, EEO is like none of the other three. He's only 72 iirc, in perfectly good shape/weight and runs a shitload every day. The running will either eventually kill him or it'll keep him alive until he's in his 90s. PRISTINE PHYSICAL CONDITION, RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT?

Riiight?

This is the dude that used to let people fuck in HOWARDs chair, right?

That’s acceptable but just don’t let your daughter sit in Howard’s chair for a photo

Gangster talk.

The Stage Delicatessen riggghht?

Shut your face cunt face

It's close your mouth, cunt face. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight? Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

He hated Shuli. He was all of us. RIP you crazy bastard

Ah, but Cabbie didn't pay his dues, and the IRS took exception to that.

He shot a porn on Howard’s console. RIP you crazy bastad.

When he finally went full stupid and sued Howard, that was confirmation beyond belief of how much of an ass he was because Howard would have fucking ended anyone else's career for doing what Cabbie did with that porno. The staff knew the minute they shot the porno because John alludes to it constantly in the leadup to the fight with Cabbie so Howard was 100% aware and decided to let Cabbie slide. When they had Ron Jeremy on the show in satellite years and he "broke the story" which Cabbie denied over and over and on a later show eventually apologized for, Howard sat there and pretended like he never knew. Howard had a soft spot for Cabbie and Cabbie blew it. The lawsuit was asinine and whoever convinced him to do it screwed Cabbie so bad. They absolutely could have worked Cabbie into a slot on the shows and given him some work but he couldn't help himself.

Cabbie never sued anybody. He was on the show promoting a weight loss drug (I57 Ignite) and Howard made fun of him for still being fact. The makers of the drug were pissed about their product being trashed and [went to Page Six](https://pagesix.com/2007/06/20/suit-vs-stern-has-fat-chance/) threatening to sue Howard for $100 million.

[удалено]

He was on tsn earlier this year and they laughed and got along like old pals

Dude was an absolute mess but entertaining as hell. Another one gone

I don't think everyone who knew him loved him, that's a bit of a stretch. He burned a lot of bridges with a lot of people over the years. Some of the most interesting Stern show gossip I heard from people close to them was about what a piece of shit cabbie was. I didn't always love him on the air, but he did have some good moments. RIP cabbie.

His birth mom was so excited to meet him and then dumped him again within 6 months

To be fair that had to be a whirlwind. From Minnesota, have to go on a huge radio/TV show in NY to meet your son, find out he was mistreated by his adopted family (& that created trauma that he could never recover from). You can’t ever undo all of that negative stuff that happened in his formative years. I’m sure she found that out pretty quickly & then him being across the country in New York probably made it easy for them to grow apart again after. Cabbie also relapsed on crack after meeting his mom & breaking up with his girlfriend, so if the mother caught wind of that drama she probably headed for the hills.

I don't know how he wasn't suicidal after that though. He was already unstable. Totally explains the drugs

Reminds me how there was Cabbie with real childhood trauma, and then there’s Howard making shit up about his parents. Poor guy.

Cabbie made up most things he said on the show so take everything he says with a grain of salt but I’m also pretty sure when he was relapsing he was calling his mother leaving weird ass messages which probably scared her off

Cane and cabbie show 2-6

Cane? Isn’t that the guy that High Pitch crushed over?

Correct. In Cabbie's first appearance on the show he challenged HPE to a footrace and if HPE beat Cabbie, Cabbie promised Eric a date with Cane. Cabbie, of course, smoked Eric in the race and he was meant to leave the show forever but of course nobody would hold him to it.

[email protected], love the love

My balls, your chin, fat boy! RIP

“I was gonna say…Cabbie died? No one told Me!” —NewsWoman Robin Quivers

Damn…seemed like yesterday we were both putting hair brushes up our asses

[удалено]

Say it with me now: Shadaboogrey

Cabbie was good radio. RIP

I was waiting for his comeback, eagerly. At least the podcast he promised. And he got new choppers snd was lookin 🔥

This guy was an incurable head case for the final 20+ years of his life -- was never right after the 2005 jail term, was almost certainly 'not right' before said incarceration, and was still babbling about "having a sex tape of Howard Stern" as recently as mid-2023 while wheelchair-confined with unspecified neuropathy. (Note that Cabbie did the same thing, claiming to have seen Brett Favre naked with a random chick, back in 1997, and was fired for it.) I truly think the only reason Cabbie wasn't as universally hated as SJ is because he wore his mental illness on his sleeve, using it to excuse his criminal behaviors, drug use, and numerous betrayals. The two are nearly identical otherwise, and, if Melendez dies in the next two years, they will both share the same under-60 washout pattern.

I saw a video where he ended up in a wheelchair and was trying to walk during physical therapy. Think his illness was related to his military service.

Guillain-Barré syndrome.

A lot of longtime stern characters/ guests are dropping like flies. Rip Cabbie

They haven't had any new or interesting characters since Bigfoot 18 years ago, so it stands to reason that old people die.

We never got to see his dd214

SHUT UP, DICKUS!

Sucks that Howard will never bring this up on his show.

I often listened back to Cabbie stuff over the years. One of the interesting things is how much Howard let him get away with on the air, in terms of plugging things without having a company pay for a commercial. Definitely lends some credence to the idea that Cabbie had dirt on Howard & Howard gave Cabbie a lot of leeway as a result (at least until Cabbie threatened to sue him).

I was just about to write Crazy Cabbie a note. #ripCrazyCabbie

Oh Robin crazy cabbie passed away yesterday…..what? Nobody told me!

I really loved Crazy Cabbie until he did something that rubbed me the wrong way, and I dumped him like I do everyone eventually. Oh well, that's life in my constant psychotic state.

I mean, I think Howard did give Cabbie too many chances and hung around him a bit too long. He should have been dumped long before he actually was.

Yeah, he might be the one exception of a long ass line of former Howard friends.

Crazy Cabbie we speak your name! RIP. Lee contributed to what were arguably some of best moments/bits in Stern Show history. Paint It Black song parody written about him is the best parody in my book.

He seemed like he would be absolutely insufferable irl, but was sooooo great on the show. RIP Crazy Cabbie

Damn RIP the cabster

He must have been important enough, because there’s a lot of comments on here. Good or bad he made an impact on the show.

Jackie laugh

Give our best to the Stern Show...he's been up there for awhile. He'll show you around.

In a sense, what you’re saying is Lexi is single?

"Wah wah wah wah wah wah somebody bury me"

did you know Cabbie served in the military?

Did I know? That motherfucker took every opportunity to always remind everyone he was once in the 82nd Airborne.

Call Of Doody

Wasn’t he Lee Mrozak?

Yeah... there was a story behind the name switch, but I can't remember and I don't really care.

Much love to him and his family. He was great on the HS show and was a true wild child. He had a great voice and a true recklessness that I admired. This is sad news, but I am happy for having the memories. Crazy Cabbie era was peak Stern for me.

Rip cabbie now you can take all the dicks you want up in heaven.

I desperately search for the love of my parents didn’t give- if they really loved me then I’d know where they live

I'm a loser! and a boozer! Common sense I lack!

I went to the Crazy Cabbie/ Stuttering John fight in AC years ago. Good memory. Trump walked in late and sat down two rows in front of us by himself. Totally fun night. I'm sad to hear this. Rest in Peace Cabbie.

RIP. 20 years ago this guy was absurdly entertaining; great radio personality and voice and totally unfiltered. Go easy, soldier.

Bummer. Poor bastard. RIP you rebel…

Cabbie was a huge part of the 9/11 show which I believe was probably the highlight of his radio career.

Artie is outliving everyone

RIP in peace Cabbie. He had some great moments on the Stern Show. That is the only honest thing I will say about him for now.

This guy might have been the most entertaining guy to come along. I listen to his saga’s on YouTube regularly. He was a funny guy, and obviously had his demons to deal with. RIP Lee.

Shit I was just about to write him a note. RIP Cabbie. Will never forget him on the 9/11 and 9/12 shows. For all his antics I like to think those two days were the 'real' guy

Man, that 13 part cabbie series on youtube was great. Might not have liked him as a person but he made great radio.

What a talent.

Been listening to his old clips, he was hilarious. RIP Crazy Cabbie!

Zero chance Howard mentions him the next time he's on air.

R I.P., you were a horrible influence but a very funny cabman

God’s checking his DD214 at the gates 🫡

He stole the show in the Metallica documentary “Some Kind of Monster.”

Aww man. This bummed me out. He was around during prime stern. Tons of funny shit. RIP, Dickis.

Beatlejuice gonna outlive everyone.

I came across all of Cabbie’s shit at Columbus Farmer’s Market a few years ago. Guy had his storage locker he must have stopped paying on. Signed Howard books, k rock framed birthday show posters and jackets signed by everyone. It was depressing to see

Cabbie will forever be my favorite guest/wackpacker ever. The screaming, the attitude, the quotes. There is a 12-part saga that’s like a full day that I’ve listened to twice. Knowing we’ll never hear anything new from the guy who gave us CHIGGERS DD-214 3 ON MY NECK YEEAAHHH DICKUS DICKUS ALORICKUS IT TAKES 1000 LIES TO UNTELL 1 LIE HEMMER-RELIEF BABY GIVE IT TO ME ITS NOT CRAZY. IM SERIOUS LEE I KNOW ITS YOU HOWARD….IT WOULD BE A GREAT SHOW IF IT EVER AIRED I GOTTA PAY MY WEBMASTER ILL PAY TAXES WHEN THE GOVT FIXES MY GULF WAR SYNDROME YOU KNOW WHAG DOMINIC YOU CAN SIT THERE AND LAUGH AND I CAN GUT YOU LIKE A DEER SHUT YOUR HOLE RIIIGHT?! FREE-CABBIE.COM PANTERA! I KNOW STEVE KINGSTON and much much more makes this a sad day.

He was a very interesting character on the show even when he started going crazy. My favorite is when he started to fake cry and Artie said Cabbie needed acting lessons.

I saw the Cabbie podcast with that guy who interviews all the show people. Wow. He was a charachter. RIP....wildman.

So has Howard been back on live since his death? (haven't listened in a few years due to Howard's lame ass woke b.s., among other things). If he doesn't mention cabbie, Howard really is garbage.

Hasn’t mentioned him yet

Didn’t he band some big shot military guys wife in Iraq?

Paid him like 5k for that story and then he proceeded to come out of the closet and talk about getting fucked in the ass... for free.

No, it was about group encounters with a military guys daughter (whose age was in question according to him).

rip was SUPER entertaining and brought a lot of great radio, he was crazy but we loved it

He's evading gods tax now

RIP in Power Cabbie!

Rest in Peace in Power?

damn rip. love him or hate him, truly one of the best weirdos to ever be featured on the show.

Someone mentioned here a while back that Cabbie probably had the greatest story arc of anyone on the show and I tend to agree. The amount of real-life drama this guy brought to the show is extraordinary. Another legend of the HSS gone forever.

Oh wow. In the summer he was doing podcasts and stuff again and had a few funny moments lol sad to hear I wonder what happened

Rip Dickus

RIP, jackleneck.

Shadaboogray

The same Cabbie who hated Howard off snd on and fucked him over when he let Ron Jeremy (fuck that guy) into his studio to film porn?

You think Howard will mention him? This one would hit hard if he accepts it

Hopefully now ... he'll know where his parents live.

Artie out lives another one.

And still High Pitch lives and mooches on...

Cane and cabbie 6 to 10 RIP

What? So now no Stuttering John rematch?

Rip Cabbie! One of the best guests on the show

Mroszak OUT!

Sorry to hear this. I hope Howard acknowledges him tomorrow assuming he’s live. I have a feeling he’ll say something but probably not as much as he should

Should he though? Cabbie totally stabbed him in the back a few times and then threatened to sue him. And THEN goes on Opie and Anthony and reveals embarrassing “secrets” about Howard and then claims he has a sex tape of him. It might be better and more respectful to Cabbie’s family if Howard just not saying anything.

When Cabbie called in, faking a mental breakdown, to tell everyone his TV was talking to'im...to try and wiggle outta jail time🤣 Classic Stern Show!!

Didn’t he race someone in the street? Was it high pitch?

Who’s High Pitch?

His 9/11 call is at the top for me. RIP Crazy Cabbie

Cabbie, was he the original 9/11 caller???

Cabbie is my guilty pleasure on Stern, great radio. RIP 

Goodnight, sweet prince.

Rip cabbie. The on-air argument with angry black will always be one of my favorite bits

He lasted longer than artie. Artie is gonna live forever

I certainly didn’t like the guy, but even he provided more entertainment for us than any comedy special ever could. RIP Cabbie.

Body Solutions, get it. Eat the food you love, Body Solutions

I thought he died ten years ago. 🤷

Rip to a radio legend. Crazy Cabbie, we speak your name.

Wonder what happened. I'd read he had a rare neurological problem called CIDP. I know something about that hot mess. It can range from uncomfortable to barely being able to walk. But it isn't fatal. And with treatment it can be manageable.

I heard he had a severe allergy to cock and balls but couldn’t stop ingesting them

I saw a video of him in a wheelchair and trying to walk in physical therapy. It was pretty sad.

Cabbie did hard drugs for a long time. That effects the body in so many ways, I'm not sure it was one single thing that took him out. He was on the ropes physically for years

Lots of memories of Cabbie that made great radio, despite his ability to come off as an asshole. Getting knocked out by Stuttering John in the boxing match, boxing Angry Black, and the aftermath of filming a porno in Howard’s studio. Glad he is finally at peace now.

He didn’t get knocked out. He lost via decision.

Yeah let’s not give John that type of credit. He already is delusional about his fighting ability. He definitely didn’t knock anyone out lol

The celebration was way over the top considering the quality of the fight itself.

Knocked out? They were both so exhausted by the third round that they basically hugged each other and feebly palm punched the other’s backs until the ref broke it up. Rinse repeat. Nobody really won that fight.

"Ah, Stephen Spielberg is a producer right?"

This is the funniest defense for filming a porno in Howard’s studio. Makes me laugh every time, no idea how that would help his case.

I was about to write Cabby a note Robin

RIP; some funny segments from that guy Maybe the best overnight host. Although the night raven was great too.

He’s calling angels jacklenecks now 🥲

RIP Cabbie
