...MORNING DRIVE TIME, but there are no traffic reports, no weather updates, no chirpy deejays whiling away the minutes between hits of the '60s, '70s and '80s. Instead, the day's major issues and news events are given thoughtful consideration. Listen as host Howard Stern offers his usual running commentary...

...Stern's late-night TV show, a raunchy comedy-talk program syndicated by New Jersey's WWOR-TV, was canceled in July after two years. But Stern will resurface this Friday as host of a new weekly interview show on E!, the cable entertainment channel. A movie career is threatening to take flight as well. Stern is developing two scripts for New Line Cinema; he is already, not surprisingly, promoting the one with the most offensive title: The Adventures of Fartman...
