Comedian Artie Lange Could Be Headed To Fox Sports Radio

A story that’s breaking this evening, TMZ is reporting that former Howard Stern Show comedian Artie Lange, off the air since December 2009 following a suicide attempt that almost took his life, could be heading back to the airwaves as soon as this fall.

TMZ says Artie and fellow comedian Nick DiPaolo would possibly team for a show that would be simulcast on DirecTV and Fox Sports Radio, similar to how the Dan Patrick Show is run. In fact, the people behind the DP Show would produce this new effort. Nothing is set in stone as of yet.

Last week, Lange and DiPaolo guest hosted on Fox Sports Radio where Artie said he would be willing to return to the Stern show. So far, no feelers from Stern, but if this show comes to fruition, it would be great to listen to Artie regularly once again. We’ll keep you posted as this story develops.
