'ON DEMAND' Baring more Stern footage

Stern will begin a daily radio show at Sirius Satellite Radio in January.
COMBINED DISPATCHES
NEW YORK -- Howard Stern's longtime producer Gary Dell'Abate recalled a scene in the radio studio from 1997 that was so wild he wondered why the crew from E! Entertainment ever kept the cameras going.
"I remember that like it was yesterday," Dell'Abate said, recalling the 15 nude women who were touching their body parts. "I remember looking at it as it happened and thinking this is never going to air anywhere, so why roll the cameras?"
He was right, it never aired -- until now.
Who can see it
The episode, with a title that can't be reprinted here, is part of a dozen that will be available to Stern fans with digital cable access to iNDEMAND in the coming weeks.
Subscribers paying $9.99 a month for "Howard Stern on Demand" will have access to uncensored segments from the 11 years cameras have been placed in Stern's radio studio.
Some of the footage available to subscribers has aired, albeit digitally blurred, as part of Stern's E! Entertainment show, but a lot never was shown because it wouldn't get past broadcast standards officials.
"There's a bunch that never aired before," Dell'Abate said. "Others, the mosaic [blurring] is gone, so you may have seen some of these shows, but haven't seen them completely unedited and uncensored."
Episodes coming in the next month span from 1997 to 2004, and include clips of porn stars Jenna Jameson and Savanna Samson, and a segment with Stern painting women's breasts green for St. Patrick's Day.
"The worst part for me is the history of my hair and weight," Dell'Abate joked. "My weight has fluctuated plus or minus 30 pounds over the course of the E! show."
"Howard Stern on Demand" is the first part in Stern's multimedia future, which gets under way officially in January when he starts a daily show at Sirius Satellite Radio.
Final show at station
Stern's last radio show at WXRK-FM is scheduled for Dec. 16. Leading up to the finale, Stern & amp; Co. have been airing highlights of past shows and getting calls and visits from well-wishers. Former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman called in Wednesday.
"We're way excited about going over," Dell'Abate said of Sirius. "And I really want to do the best shows we can do before we leave here."
Meanwhile, Infinity Broadcasting, in its plans to replace the self-proclaimed "King of All Media," announced a new morning drive-time lineup of assorted hosts for its 27 soon-to-be former Stern stations, including ex-Van Halen frontman David Lee Roth and comedian Adam Corolla.
