'I cringe when I look at myself 30 or 40 years ago,' the radio personality said. (via toofab)
"It was something in me, a drive you wouldn't believe. As a young man, I wanted to succeed on the radio and I wanted to go f--king crazy. Emotionally it was costing me a lot," he recalled."The FCC was after me, the right wing was after me, I had the Ku Klux Klan after me, threatening my life. All kinds of crazy stories. I could do 17 movies on my life, how crazy it was. I was fined millions of dollars by the federal government, for sex.
Stern said he changed his radio show -- which ran on WXRK between 1986 and 2005 -- and received backlash over his decision. "A lot of people who did like that humor, where I was completely pulling my pants off, those people are pissed off at me now. They think I'm a sellout and I’m not doing a good show anymore," he explained."I got soft. I came to realize in therapy, if I’m going to be with my kids, and have a successful marriage, I can't be insane completely 24 hours a day. I have to figure out a better way to communicate. So I evolved and changed.
The former"America's Got Talent" judge then directly addressed the Danson skit, admitting that if he could go back in time, he might have done things differently. “The big headline is this, and this is my fear in all of this," Stern said."I was able to change my approach, able to change my life and change how I communicated. If I had to do it all over again, would I lampoon Ted Danson, a white guy in blackface? Yeah, I was lampooning him and saying, I’m going to shine a light on this. But would I go about it the same way now? Probably not. Not probably, I wouldn't.
