Decided to create a separate topic for some speculation about the Howard 100/101 radio show on Sirius XM. It came somewhat unexpected to be expected to listen to a radio station not shown on the project-wt website this coming Saturday, July 8th, 2017. I am curious as to why this may be and why specifically Howard Stern. Some links: > **[Sirius Satellite Radio](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirius_Satellite_Radio)** > > Sirius Satellite Radio was a satellite radio (SDARS) and online radio service operating in North America, owned by Sirius XM Holdings. > Headquartered in New York City, with smaller studios in Los Angeles and Memphis, Sirius was officially launched on July 1, 2002. It now provides 69 streams (channels) of music and 65 streams of sports, news, and entertainment to its subscribers. A subset of Sirius music channels is included as part of the Dish Network satellite television service. Sirius channe... > **[Sirius XM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirius_XM_Holdings)** > > Sirius XM Holdings Inc. is an American broadcasting company headquartered in Midtown Manhattan, New York City that provides satellite radio and online radio services operating in the United States. It was formed by the 2008 merger of Sirius Satellite Radio and XM Satellite Radio, merging them into SiriusXM Radio. The company also has a 70% equity interest in Sirius XM Canada, an affiliate company that provides Sirius and XM service in Canada.

The show has aired on Howard 100 and Howard 101, Stern's two uncensored channels on the subscription-based satellite radio service SiriusXM, since 2006. Other prominent staff members include co-host and news anchor Robin Quivers, writer Fred Norris and executive producer Gary Dell'Abate, along ... > **[Howard 100 and Howard 101](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_100_and_Howard_101)** > > Howard 100 and Howard 101 are two uncensored channels on Sirius XM, a satellite radio service that broadcasts programming affiliated with Howard Stern and The Howard Stern Show. Though the channels were first broadcast on September 29, 2005 with the former company Sirius Satellite Radio, Stern could not officially broadcast until January 1, 2006, as Stern was still at WXRK, the terrestrial radio station where he had to finish his FM radio contract. A merger of Sirius Satellite Radio and XM Sat I found some interesting info that may relate to the theme of this ARG. First of all the change to a ‘Satellite Radio’ station (DAB), which is different from the terrestrial radio stations (FM/AM/Internet) we have been listening to so far. > **[Satellite radio](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_radio)** > > Satellite radio is defined by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU)'s ITU Radio Regulations (RR) as a broadcasting-satellite service. The satellite's signals are broadcast nationwide, across a much wider geographical area than terrestrial radio stations, and the service is primarily intended for the occupants of motor vehicles. It is available by subscription, mostly commercial free, and offers subscribers more stations and a wider variety of programming options than terrestria Satellit... Then I started looking into possible Sci-Fi connections with Howard Stern and found some interesting results. Howard Stern had an uncredited role in Men in Black 3, where he appears as one of the detainees in the 1969 MIB headquarters. He can be spotted at the bottom right, just after Agent J (Will Smith) wakes from travelling back in time to 1969.

This time not Howard Stern himself, but George Takei, aka Lt. Hikaru Sulu, who became an announcer for the Howard Stern Show back in 2009. I am not familiar with the show, but apparently he still regularly joins the show. > **[George Takei](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Takei)** > > George Takei (/təˈkeɪ/; born Hosato Takei (武井 穂郷, Takei Hosato, April 20, 1937) is an American actor, author and activist known for his role as Hikaru Sulu, helmsman of the fictional starship USS Enterprise in the television series Star Trek and subsequent films. > Takei was born to Japanese American parents, with whom he lived in U.S.-run internment camps during World War II. He began pursuing acting in college, which led in 1965 to the role of Sulu, to which he returned periodically into the 1... ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/etarc/original/2X/d/df6045bfe1b3591db49b52b2c2fce9658c7cfbc5.jpg) This really makes me curious what we are about to hear this coming Saturday. I doubt this is all a coincidence and sure fits the whole theme. We will most likely just get another commercial, but I find all this pretty interesting. Please feel free to share your thoughts, add additional info, possible references or otherwise join the discussion. I am sure there was a good reason to pick the Howard Stern Show. ---
