Artie Lange is a retard junky, more successful than Jim

Of course. Artie was on the Stern show, which was way bigger than O&A. Most wack packers are more famous than Opie, Ant, or Jim. Eric the Midget, Beetlejuice, and Sour Shoes are much more well known than the O&A losers.
Arte had already been on the Norm Show, Mad TV, and did Dirty Work before Stern.

but Norton is more successful than anyone here 🤔
Really wouldn't be hard to find someone better off. Any retired 55 year old guy I know is light years ahead of Norton in family, relationships and happiness and has comparable money, a few mil. They also didn't lug around their own pillows to Pughkeepsie (Norton didn't go to Erock's wedding because the money was so good for him there) with a dead-eyed Golem on airlines they hated to make their small fortunes, but got to sleep in their own bed with their wives.

Arties drug tales are what keep me interested.
sobriety stories are dull.
Not even his stories. His actual drug rages live on Stern and other shows are legendary. He used to perform live on heroin for standup all of the time as well. His appearance on Joe Buck Live is still the greatest talk show moment in history. Him just disappearing on air during Stern when it was so obvious he was snorting up in the stairwell was ridiculous that it went on for years. No need for drug tales when you are a maniac on air. Norton's stories are all made up lies for the air to sound hardcore compared to real degenerates like Bobby or Vos. Artie was not faking his addictions.

Artie drinking in Vegas during one Stern trip is still great years later. He was screaming homophobic insults at the actor who played gay Vito on The Sopranos. Gambling away his paycheck. And during the funniest gambling segment of all time he won $50,000 for hitting a fastball off of a female pitcher. And the casino wanted him to put it on one spin of roulette. So after like ten minutes of agonizing over red or black he finally says "okay put it all on red" and then it lands on green.

Jim is a hack in every single way yet didn’t have a moment where his career was totally fucked Carlos Mencia style.

Artie was actually successful and funny but the heroin caught up to him and made a ton of mistakes like Beer League that Sal trashed him for on the air.

One had potential and squandered it and the other never had it to begin with and licked the taint of Amy Schumer out of desperation.

Beer League is a funny ass movie, great little throwback flick to watch on occasion.

Artie was a decent actor and great raconteur on Stern but his stand up stinks !
