Executive producer Gary Dell’Abate, also known by his nickname Baba Booey, greeted fans from his office in Stern’s SiriusXM studios before colleagues began to imitate his signature voice.
Producer Jason Kaplan then chimed in with his impression, along with associate director Sam Greenwood.
Richard Christy, JD Harmeyer, Steve Nowicki, Will Murray, Mike Pearlman and Sal Governale also gave their takes on Dell’Abate.

Howard Stern Show segment CANCELED after shock jock’s mass layoffs
On-air talent Memet Walker, Benjy Bronk, Jonathan Blitt, Mike Trainor and Rahsaan Rogers were among those let go from the team.
The cuts come with many changes at the Stern Show, including the shock jock downsizing to just one show a week.
SiriusXM archival channel Howard 101 was dropped, and taken over by Stern’s rival Andy Cohen. (Just Howard 100 remains.)
In addition, segments like The Stern Show’s Fantasy Football League will not return this season.

“The Stern Show Fantasy Football League is defunct…it’s done,” the league’s commissioner Michael Rapaport announced last week.
The league had been held for the past 18 years, and the source of major friction between staffers each fall.
The reclusive Stern has remained silent about the layoffs and changes, though he will return to air on September 14.
Stern is thought to have remained hunkered down on his Hamptons compound, making just a rare appearance at John Mayer’s concert in Amagansett in August.
The King of all Media re-signed a three-year deal with SiriusXM in December, after heated negotiations and rampant rumors the show would be canceled once and for all after 20 years at the streamer.
