Magic had no business thinking he could host a talk show and be entertaining, but he deserves incredible credit for being willing to have Howard Stern on, really unrestrained and unedited. This is show business and t.v. at its very best. Magic is truly a stand up guy, being willing to talk about anything.
@@Gaslight_ProductionsWhat a pussy! He should not have had a talk show to begin with. At the same time, we wouldn't have witnessed gold right before our eyes.
I remember the anticipation to watch this episode after Howard ripped Magic daily for 3 weeks leading up to this airing. Howard didn't disappoint as he brutally hijacked the show from the beginning, then drove it into a ditch...
Stern had been on radio and media day-after-day for 20 years at this point, earning the title "King of all Media" by this point. He was a viper. Magic was handed the show with no training in the media arts. other than the media kissing his ass in interview. MAGIC faced the buzzsaw: a viper vs a bunny rabbit.
@@RichV20 let's face it magic was a basketball player not a talk show host figure there's no comparison 🤔 Howard stern is an ass there was no reason for the way he acted. You all are talking like magic was his talk show host equal... notice Howard did not challenge magic to a game of basketball oh wait.. that's not Howard's arena correct?
@@jacobsladder6715 Howard Stern wasn't trying to be a basketball player. Magic was trying to be a talk show host, which he had no preparation for. Stern admits that he was an awful radio show host for years before it finally clicked. Difference is Howard was doing radio in Bumfuk USA while Magic tried doing a national show cold.
No what's shocking is howard being some woke limp wristed clown who now gets triggered by Donald Trump or Joe Rogan. Howard was and is a phony and you dorks that worship him.... well.
Who thought it was a good idea to give Magic Johnson a talk show? LOL 😂 This was the best thing they could have done for the show and it didn’t help them avoid cancellation after just one season.
@@RagingBullNuts no, the appearance was all schtick for ratings. Howard's primary criticism was that Magic was a marble mouth and unsuitable to host a national talk show.
Stern actually got Magic to loosen up. Sorta. And he was right; Magic was such a mush mouth because he was trying to say lines and he wasn’t being himself.
Damn, I remember watching several episodes of the magic hour. Didn’t get to see this episode, but damn Howard Stern straight embarrassed Magic on his own show. Should have been immediately renamed the Tragic Hour after this episode. What a clunker ugh
The Keenan Ivory Wayne Show, which got axed for The Magic Hour on most FOX owned stations, was on more solid ground for all the 8 or 9 months it was on, not changing its time slot like The Magic Hour did twice in its 8 week life.
I remember taping this and the controversy that followed. This was the only watchable episode of this talk show. You can tell Magic hated every second of it though..
Sheila E's brother in this show episode is actually Nicole Richie's biologal father (he was in Lionel Richie's band and I believe Nicole Richie's biological mother was also) for whatever reason they gave Nicole to Lionel and Brenda.
People need to understand, Howard took over every show he guest starred on in the 90s. Jon Stewart, Joan Rivers, Letterman, Leno, etc. He did this to everyone, not just Magic.
Magic looked more like a diplomat being interrogated at the UN than a host of a TV show. I think he only answered a few questions the entries episode haha
This was the biggest disaster in Late Night Television next to "Keenan (Ivory-Wayans)," "Vibe," and "The Chevy Chase Show" on FOX. Still, I watched it. I love "Shelia E." LOL
I doubt we’ll ever know. He rarely addresses hot topics concerning himself. Last time was shocking when he was very upset about audience reaction to his interview with Ben affleck
I don't know..I think National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation Chevy Chase was a lot better than Howard Stern..but unfortunately, Chevy Chase didn't stay at that level.
My how times have changed. I remember Sheila E called a priest to cleanse the set. Drew is right though, NBA kept exaggerating those heights. Karen McDougal one of Trump's beauties.
39:21 Sheila E. was mad as HELL after Howard kissed the back of her neck.. look at how hard she started beating those drums!!! Howard was trash. Loud and weak. Magic has the patience of MLK 😂
That’s mad disrespectful too. Like the lady is clearly a talented musician doing her thing and he interrupts to literally sexually assault her and she just had to put up with it and go on with the show. Wild. And that was the norm in the 90’s. So many people think that’s the way things should still be.

Watched this about half a dozen times during the summer of '98.
Like the challenger explosion for my generation
@jamesr5719 But this was more enjoyable to rewatch over and over again.
Robin is absolutely beautiful!
I've seen this many times over the years and it never ceases to be hilarious 😅
Man, the 90s were incredible 😁
I knew Magic’s show wouldn’t last that long after the first couple of episodes….but Damn! I forgot how wild this episode was

The producers booked Howard stern against Magics will, Magic didnt want him on, and he says he regrets not punching him during this interview lol..
@@Gaslight_ProductionsWhat a pussy! He should not have had a talk show to begin with. At the same time, we wouldn't have witnessed gold right before our eyes.
Howard and the whole crew flew to LA to do this? This was actually a huge favor to Magic.
Magic was in over his head here.
Damn, Stern was wild AF back in the day.
He was “out of his mind back then.”
cocaine
That's what he got famous by doing.
Yeah. Wasn't it great
@@pizzashit69Yeah. It was the best.
I remember seeing the episode with my older brother as a kid and laughing our azz off 😂
I remember watching this live, one of the best late night TV moments.
I can't believe how long ago 1998 is. It seems like the 1970s, Not the late 90s.
This comment is literally the truest and saddest comment on RUclips.
Here after Magic addressed this interview on sports center this week
Stern wasn't lying.
What did he say about it?
Earvin Johnson is so out of his world . He is not cut to be a talk show host .
I remember watching this the night it aired... Howard Flamed Magic... 🔥
Killed the show howard did
I still remember it too.. Made me squirm
True story, Yoda
This was a "Make My Day" episode that has been ever seen on television in this whole life!
Magic was pissed that Stern kept joking about his wild past.
Watch winning time on hbo 🤣🤣 magic was crazy
Then don’t have a wild past
@@IamCatharineStevens As if you'd like someone bringing up your past over and over. Who would?
Made a good point though that he at least had fun catching aids
I think Magic is overtly sensitive - this is what Stern has always done - what was he expecting?

@Christopher Jacobs Stern would respect Murphy or Rock because they spent years hustling at their craft, especially Rock. They could hold their own.
I remember being 15 or so and looking forward to waking up and listening to Howard tear this show apart
This was the only time, ever, that Scott Salem smiled on camera!
Kuhh
Kch.
Awesome show. Thanks to Howard. And great band!!!
They invited Howard Stern, who acted exactly like Howard Stern always acts, and they were shocked or surprised about what he said?
No what's shocking is howard being some woke limp wristed clown who now gets triggered by Donald Trump or Joe Rogan. Howard was and is a phony and you dorks that worship him.... well.
Exactly right!
Probably the most viewed show ol’ HIV had.
@@pizzashit69 “ol HIV”?
@@robertfreeman5231 Magic stupid
I like how the tape warped at the end lol
If you listen Howard now you wouldn't think this was him
Howard reached a point where he knew that he had to evolve in order to remain on the air.
When Howard still had balls.
That’s because he’s Jewish and is protected .
His little hat helps
Howard took control of his show
@37:21 Everyone jamming, crowd grooving and then there’s Howard having a great time and behaving nicely!
It's 2022 and Magic wanted to Jada Will smack Howard during this interview 😂
I can’t watch it anymore more when magic 🪄 stop laughing 😂
12:13 Chris Rock is on next week
Howard brought up Fresh Prince of Bel Air.
Howard should've smacked magics hiv head
Sheila E. was beautiful AF
God, this was the only good episode of this hysterically disastrous show.
This show or Chevy Chase's. I still don't know which was worst.
@@jorgeanthony7127Chevy was the worst of all time. Can’t believe that was 30 years ago.
Drew Carey, the Playmate who had an affair with Trump, and a Fresh Prince reference ! Can't believe a slap brought us all back to this gem.
How the hell did that happened?? I was about to listen to tiny talk about his whole career on Hannibal TV... and seen this show being mentioned.
Everyone straight roasted lol
I bet ratings were thru the roof this night 🤩
It was the Magic Johnson Show. Of course not! LOL 😂
Robin is awasome
Sheesh. Stern is crazy man.
That's awesome though.
Magic is a real gentlemen here. I admire his restraint.
He did the only thing he was capable of under the circumstances
Howard gave him big ratings, for one night. Suck it up
Loved this show....love the 90s
I never heard of the show and I was in high school and college in the 90s.
@@nofurtherwest3474 to much 🍺 and pill 💊
I do recall that Howard could certainly draw attention to himself but not make anyone else look good.
That show was wild! And Howard and Robin were so rude! Would love to get their perspective on it today.
you must never have seen Howard's show
He'd probably say the say thing🙄
He won't talk about it today because he's a preachy woke jerk, and doesn't want people reminded of how he used to act.
@@Montana-Skies nah he's a little beta libtard today so more than likely he'd apologize 10 times over
He would say he was outta his mind back then like the giant pussy he has become
Caught in the headlights.
How have I never seen this? Damn
You ordered Howard Stern and you got Howard Stern. What was Magic expecting.
I remember when I saw this episode. When Tiny got up to talk, I thought he was going to walk down to the stage and kick Howard's ass.
I remember seeing this live
Robin has always been the icebreaker
Beth has really mellowed him Howard out.
Who thought it was a good idea to give Magic Johnson a talk show? LOL 😂
This was the best thing they could have done for the show and it didn’t help them avoid cancellation after just one season.
What? Bring someone spouting stereotypes?
@@RagingBullNuts no, the appearance was all schtick for ratings. Howard's primary criticism was that Magic was a marble mouth and unsuitable to host a national talk show.
@@pizzafrenzyman Did you not see what Magic Johnson said today?
@@RagingBullNuts yes
Magic cant talk is stiffer than a corpse,and earned his cancellation....he should have listened to Howard the best entertainer of his era .
Recorded from WASV 62 (then-WB/UPN, now WYCW 62) from the Greenville, SC/Asheville, NC area.
So cool MJ had a female band leader - Sheila E
Chris Rock is on the show next week. That should be interesing.
Hahahhahahaha
“The funky grooves” of Usher!
Stern actually got Magic to loosen up. Sorta. And he was right; Magic was such a mush mouth because he was trying to say lines and he wasn’t being himself.
I feel so, so sorry for Sheila E
Howard the roast master cooking majic
I remember watching this on tv and thinking how Howard Destroys Magic. Wow
Howard kept the show on the air for a few more weeks. He did Magic a favor - while brutalizing him of course :)
7:53 Sheila E. Doing “You Light up My Life” was best part of the show
I see Tommy "Tiny" Lister in the audience, I didn't realize he passed away in 2020.
Tommy "Tiny" Lister is an intimidating guy, he wanted to kill Howard
Zeus!!
Damn, I remember watching several episodes of the magic hour. Didn’t get to see this episode, but damn Howard Stern straight embarrassed Magic on his own show. Should have been immediately renamed the Tragic Hour after this episode. What a clunker ugh
He embarrassed himself
@@rlast4698 This is the third anti Howard comment from you I have seen. Jackie? Is that you?
@@walteradams2439 I think he’s referring to Magic
@@wes788411 Oh...well maybe its Larry Bird then?
He was talking about Magic...
Oh wow oh wow magic got torn apart 😳
It's really levels to this.. to say Howard Stern is a natural is an understatement 😂😂
You don't realise how tall stern is till he stands up next to magic
The Keenan Ivory Wayne Show, which got axed for The Magic Hour on most FOX owned stations, was on more solid ground for all the 8 or 9 months it was on, not changing its time slot like The Magic Hour did twice in its 8 week life.
36:52 that man in the background is Nicole Richie’s biological father. Shelia E is her aunt.
11:50 at 0.25x speed is a power exchange followed by a cult ceremony as they all praise Howard Stern
I remember taping this and the controversy that followed. This was the only watchable episode of this talk show. You can tell Magic hated every second of it though..
Howard has the gift of talking. Always entertaining.
He really doesn't. Bored and insulted
Yeah a gift of sticking his foot in his mouth
@@rlast4698 insulted and bored are mutually exclusive, numbskull
He was, now just another liberal media hack
Sheila E's brother in this show episode is actually Nicole Richie's biologal father (he was in Lionel Richie's band and I believe Nicole Richie's biological mother was also) for whatever reason they gave Nicole to Lionel and Brenda.
Hes got the eyeballs
Wish Magic had gone Will Smith on Stern.
This show - completely wild and crazy!
But in the late 1990s --- it was also par for the course then. Truly a different time.
Please give another example of something this crazy on a talk show.
29:42-30:08
Howard has no filter!!
Magic is a good guy with a good heart.
Robin was the highlight. She let um out that night!
Yo Magic got embarrassed on his own show.... 😂😂😂 This was 😂😂😂 and ☹️☹️☹️ ain't the same time. Damn
I love how Earvin called Karen "Kim" at the end of the show. Destined for doom.
17:33 Might be the moment where Magic Johnson wanted to hit Stern.

More commercials than the Superbowl

Tiny Lister WOW!!!
RIP Tiny Lister
3 knockdown rule brought me here.
But some how Howard can now virtue signal and help cancel people 🤷♂️
Never underestimate the power of a small hat.
@@pizzashit69 and a big 👃
The one who speaks the most & the loudest is the one with the lowest self-esteem. Howard must really hate himself.
Hate how TV shows were then and now 80% commercials, 10% plugging, and 10% actual show and entertainment.
Good ol days.
Howard was right about what magic needed to do. But magic is a business man and it takes balls to go against the status quo.
This was the biggest disaster in Late Night Television next to "Keenan (Ivory-Wayans)," "Vibe," and "The Chevy Chase Show" on FOX. Still, I watched it. I love "Shelia E." LOL
I was 18 years old at the time and why is it just now I’m finding out Magic had his own show?
hahaha, me too!! where the F did this come from
Same here on both accounts. Actually, I turned 20 that year.
Because you have your head in the sand.
Because hardly anyone watched it?
I can not believe Howard is woke now.
Robin is so fly !
If nobody writes a story based off this extraordinary encounter, than I will.
I mean...this WAS an amazing night of television...good for you.👍
Then*
Today
i'm dying to know what howard stern thinks of this video now
I doubt we’ll ever know. He rarely addresses hot topics concerning himself. Last time was shocking when he was very upset about audience reaction to his interview with Ben affleck
This talk show had potential if MJ pressed back more, Magic had a great talk show face & what a great early guest to kick off the show.
I would love to know what it was like between the commercial breaks.
Damn, poor Karen McDougal. Magic said he brought her on the show just for Howard
yeah I feel sorry for Karen McDougal. She suffered a horrifying ordeal in 2006. And she didn't even get paid $130,000 for it.
@@blefflife2680 no proof. You look the other way when Clinton and epstein do worse
Oh Howard, you don't let Magic get away with nuttin'...
Hahahahahhahahahahahhahah mad tv had me in tears
Mad tv !!!!!
"Name us an occupation."
"A HAT!"
I actually think he's better than Chevy Chase.
He certainly is, but unfortunately that's not saying a whole lot lol.
I don't know..I think National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation Chevy Chase was a lot better than Howard Stern..but unfortunately, Chevy Chase didn't stay at that level.
What people do not get is Magic did not want Howard on the show! The producers brought him on because of ratings! Magic was pissed!!
"who gives a rats ass about white America" is the only thing that aged well from this segment😂
racism is in everyone, even those who pretend to be fighting it...
Yeah and the black community has really aged well since then
anyone that likes progress, comfort, convenience. the computer/phone you're using to type this nonsense. have you thanked a white man today?
Super Hips you better care because I'm making sure White America is coming for you.
White countries is where most non whites want to live in. Show some respect and gratitude
My how times have changed. I remember Sheila E called a priest to cleanse the set. Drew is right though, NBA kept exaggerating those heights. Karen McDougal one of Trump's beauties.
Sheila E did that for HIV or Stern?
@@AMPFIELDVISION For Howard, to cleanse the set from his "negativity".
