Mostly rumors but one has to wonder what is going on. Probably rehab, I really hope he gets himself together. The show is definitely missing him. If true, I'm sure Mary Ann from Brooklyn will be pleased.

Stern was evasive and indirect regarding Lange's absence, but it was clear something out of the ordinary was behind Lange's vacancy.

Brittany Murphy's untimely death acts as an eerie reminder for Howard Stern Show fans that their own superstar heroin addict could go at any time. Most Howard Stern Show fans have been waiting to hear the news that Artie Lange was found dead in the shower in a pool of his own Hawaiian Punch vomit for years now. What's most shocking about the Artie Lange case is, perhaps, that he's managed to keep sliding down his slippery slope long after most of the world thought he'd hit rock bottom.
Artie Lange was absent from the final week of the Howard Stern Show before the holiday break. Sirius XM management ordered him to stay home for the week for reasons that Howard Stern refused to explain.
Artie Lange fans are hoping that Artie Lange is somewhere on a sober living ranch far away from Delaware and that he'll return to the show after the new year.

Edit: I see that I misspelled Artie's name in the thread title, which is pretty embarrassing since I have Too Fat To Fish sitting on my bedside table.
