This is probably old news but this is from the Metal Index....
"ICED EARTH drummer Richard Christy (ex-DEATH, CONTROL DENIED) appears to be the favorite to land the job on The Howard Stern Show previously held by Stuttering John (who recently made the move to The Tonight Show With Jay Leno). Christy, a self-professed "huge fan of Howard's show for years," has submitted several audition tapes for consideration as part of the contest to win Stuttering John's old job. A few of those recordings were aired on The Howard Stern Show Thursday morning (March 25) to a rousing response from Howard, who made it clear that Richard was by far his personal favorite out of all the contestants so far."
