Stern didn't appreciate him and Billy wouldn't tolerate being treated like one of his underlings. He went on to have a very successful career as a voice actor in Hollywood and lives a comfortable life.
Everyone on RUclips thinks everything is “under rated.” The guy is the greatest, and most well-known, voice actor in the world. How is that” underrated?”
Nah… they were clearly goofing on Conan. Conan’s show was terrible at this point and it actually was cancelled about four or five months after this appearance. NBC brought it back when they realized it was too expensive to develop a new show under their 1995 budget. Conan’s ratings started rising at the end of that year so he stated on the air.
The thing that sucks is that I get the impression that Howard resents Billy because Howard likes to have control on his people's careers. It's kind of why, whenever a staffer gives notice, Howard has them in on their last day and bashes them and calls them losers. He attacked Scott Einziger for quitting to produce reality TV (he's won a few Emmys since), he spent most of Stuttering John's last day bashing Leno and, when Steve Langford quit for a regular news gig, Steve kept it quiet and when he left, Howard attacked him for it. He really has to be the center of everyone's universe. When they did a Billy West retrospective, it was a long string of backhanded compliments (he read Jackie's jokes well), mentions of Space Jam and the fact that he plays the red M&M in commercials. You know how many times they mentioned Futurama? Zero. They haven't been able to flat out attack him because West seems genuinely grateful for his experience and if Stern resents him, that's not Billy's problem and there's no profit in starting a fight.
I remember when Billy left the show in 1995, Stern didn’t mention it at first. Then fans started calling in saying, “Where’s Billy?” and Stern would get all defensive. He thought no one would notice. I honestly believe Stern didn’t like that Billy would overshadow him on the show (especially when Jackie Puppet became popular). Everyone knew how talented Billy was so Stern couldn’t mute him, but Billy would literally take over segments sometimes when he became full-time on the show. It’s almost like Stern purposely didn’t go to bat for him in the contract negotiations so he would leave. Stern’s ego is that nobody is above the show but him. I don’t think the show was ever the same after Billy left. That was essentially the peak of the show.
I listened to the show for years, and still listen to all these great clips on RUclips. But damn, Howard was a bully. Ungrateful. Vindictive. And incredibly selfish.
Billy as the Jackie Puppet is fifty times funnier than ANYTHING that’s been on the show (except maybe Sour Shoes) in the last 20 years. Prove me wrong.
Eric the midget, Beetle, Bigfoot, Artie, Hank the dwarf? (Okay that's around 21 years), but come on... as much as I love this, there's been tons of funny moments
Jackie Puppet, Gilbert, Mark Harris, Dice vs Jackie, Dice vs Arsenio, The Channel 9 show, Howard vs Johnny Carson, Fred's sound drops during the news, Robin's news, The Backside Boys...goddamn...great back then.
howard wanted to have his talk show on late night so bad. He had no respect for any of the hosts, including dave and conan.. I guess his attitude changed later on.
Billy was hands down one of the best eras of the show. I know Billy wasnt as big as Artie became but he was equally funny, without being nearly as offensive. Billy, it always felt like a joke even when he said the F or N-word. Artie, you weren't always sure it was a joke.
spencerfourhigher: Do you mean Howard or the Jackie puppet? I don't get the feeling that the Jackie puppet hates Conan at all; he's just doing his job. And Billy was making fun of Jackie more than Conan anyway.
Best era of the stern show by far. No question.
They were great, but I did enjoy the Artie/Yucko era more
Peak stern for sure
@@wkworld6741 Jackie made that show. Him being the bitter outsider foil of the others just lade for gold. Best era by far
Billy was great on the show. The Jackie Puppet always made me laugh! 😂
@dclay1587 giving Yucko a lot of credit!!
I love how vicious the Jackie Puppet was. Billy really seemed to enjoy going nuts with it.
12:54
well, that and coke...
What's even greater, is that the Real Jackie wrote jokes for the Jackie Puppet😆🤣
Jackie had the puppet made
8:31 Billy doing an impression of Jackie doing an impression of Ralph. Amazing.
Damn, Billy was good. Such an underrated talent I think. Lucky there are so many hours of him from the stern show
not underratedd ídíóṭà ; elsewise these videos would have no interest

@@daytonasayswhat9333damn. Billy West isn’t underrated. He is great and successful. That’s the opposite of underrated. Point well taken.
I appreciate all of you watching the videos & I hope You All enjoy....
We do. Thank you.
Thanks - Do you know who the "mystery guest" was that they kicked Conan out for?
Thanks for sharing.
Great memories of Billy West & Jackie!
Thanks for the great upload!
I can listen to this over and over.
Love the Jackie puppet! Billy West kills. Funniest the show ever was.
This was a tough room to hang in. Conan is handling this as good as one can. Billy, Jackie firing comedy missiles, and Conan dodging left and right😂
God, Billy was the best. I could listen to Jackie Puppet on loop for a lifetime.
The genius of Billy’s Jackie impression is whenever a joke doesn’t land he pulls out the low tone laugh and move onto next bit in half a second
Or he would just make Jackie puppet fart then giggle
The golden years; hilarious, unrelenting and free on FM radio.
Maybe one day, all general public will have access to every airing. It’s probably on the deep web
Along with 12-20 minute breaks when Howard says “ We’ll be right back after these messages.” 😂
26:33 - "You've still got time to get out before they crack down on welfare!" I almost fell out of my chair when I heard that one!
"Eff you Robin! I'm my own best audience!...THIS IS EFFIN FUNNY!! COME ON, LAUGH!!!" -Jackie puppet
08:26 Billy/Jackie Puppet making fun of Ralph's speech impediment lol
"Conan O' Bye-Bye".🤣🤣😂
18:11 Foreshadowing of the Tonight Show debacle that would happen 16 years later...
This bit was the apex of the Howard Stern show. It was the perfect blend of mean jokes to rain down on a perfect victim, Conan O'Brien.
Mike Panek: I think Jackie was the real "victim" here, not Conan.
I think the real victims were Tom Snyder and Greg Kinnear...if anything, Howard was trying to boost Conan's confidence. In the longrun, he was right.

First 90 seconds are P_E_R_F_E_C_T
I love the Jackie Puppet so much.
The KROCK days were the best!! No one is gonna go up against Jackie puppet and win! Billy was to brilliant.
2022
Billy as the Jackie Puppet is fifty times funnier than ANYTHING that’s been on the show (except maybe Sour Shoes) in the last 20 years. Prove me wrong.
As a hardcore listener from 1987-2012 Artie was the only one funnier. It’s not even close.
@@jg7102 Jackie was funnier than Artie
@@HipsterDoofus100: News flash: "Funny" is subjective. Jackie was funnier TO YOU...
Yucko was fantastic on the road🤡🤡
Eric the midget, Beetle, Bigfoot, Artie, Hank the dwarf? (Okay that's around 21 years), but come on... as much as I love this, there's been tons of funny moments
Jackie puppet is funnier than the real thing! OMG! I loved this! Miss these days !Thank you for the upload!!!
If there was ever a reunion show when Howard retires it would be criminal too not get Billy West on the show so we can hear it one last time XD
Conan O'Bye-Bye
Thank you so much for uploading this. I haven't heard this since it originally aired. Can't stop listening to this! 😂😂😂
Jesus,Conan saying to himself “I don’t see you lighting the world on fire on Television”.Didnt ask for your guidance
I can’t stand stern, but I can’t get enough of listening to billy west taunting Jackie with the Jackie puppet !
kinda funny stern said his "best" interview was Conan. They were relentless back in the day
Jackie puppet really pissed off conan
More like pissed on
I was a little too young for this era but I've been listening for the last few weeks. Billy is amazing and IMO this is the best era of the show.
Billy West was the greatest ever!
Love Jackie Puppet !
“ What are you gonna do when your show gets s-canned.” 😂🤣

Do you have Billy doing Marge Schott or Lucille Ball.
Conan is like the anti Howard.
Yeah he kinda is. He has an incredible sense of humor about himself, where as the only one allowed to make fun of Howard is Howard. Conan's great.
@@barrelrolltoday6051 Conan's great at being goofed on lol
Not only that, he looked out for his staff out of his own pocket. Something Howard wouldn't do.
Jackie Puppet, Gilbert, Mark Harris, Dice vs Jackie, Dice vs Arsenio, The Channel 9 show, Howard vs Johnny Carson, Fred's sound drops during the news, Robin's news, The Backside Boys...goddamn...great back then.
Could you have imagined at this time that conan what day replacing jay leno in the near future who would ever predicted i think he is so funny
Is there any actual video of this from the interview? Weren't they doing the E Show or was that over then?
Conan was at NBC another 15 years.
Golden era
Conan was shredded by a puppet!
Jackie puppet planned for the chick to sit on his hand ... lol
11:50, the Irish joke.jesus is billy west the best.
WeeeeEEEEEEEEED lol
By any chance do you have Jackie puppet when Robert Downey and his girlfriend was on?
Billy was The Best.
Billy West Is The Best!!!

Does anybody know who ended up being the mystery guest?
What year was this?
1994-95
I need pot! Poooot
37:08
why does he hate conan so much?
Jealousy.
Jackie Puppet hated everything and everyone except money, beer, and weeeeeeed.
spencerfourhigher: Do you mean Howard or the Jackie puppet? I don't get the feeling that the Jackie puppet hates Conan at all; he's just doing his job. And Billy was making fun of Jackie more than Conan anyway.
Conan is an easy target for great content. Especially when being bullied by a puppet lmao
WEEEEEED?
Conan O’Brien! Not funny then, not funny now. Kept a show for 20 years and never got any ratings, well done!
25:01 I fucking love how he hit puberty for a split second 😂😂
