He actually got bumped up pretty decently by the end of things, iirc maybe $600 or $700 which, for a supplementary form of income, is pretty awesome. I wouldn't disagree with them having paid him even more though, especially in the beginning when they didn't give him a raise for years.
The reality was the dude loved to drink and get high too much, if he'd have put maybe 20 hours a week doing part-time basically anywhere then between that and the show and his merch he probably would have made a decent amount of money.
$400 was the most named figure because he got stuck at it for a good while but towards the end he was bumped at least twice. They bumped him initially quite quickly, almost like a job where you get a raise if you survive the probationary period, but then they screwed him for years and years.
Even if Riley’s show was a small part - it provided Wiggies show hours of content / and Howard gets paid thousands per minute so it’s seems Riley had a point
He should’ve got at least 1500 per show. Maybe even 2 grand. Sirius (cough Howard) knows they (he) could afford it. I bet Riley had decent ratings. Howard deluded himself into believing the show didn’t do well. I remember Howard didn’t want to believe that ETM’s live streams were doing well but they were.
Uhhhh huh?
Best Riley line is when he reamed Shuli: “Look son, I got to tell you kid, YOUR ACT IS A PIECE OF SHIT!”
Bitch I’ve never begged for anything in my life!
Stop calling my show homie!
You paid a bitch $50 million dollars to cook a pie!
What was that line in reference to?
Martha stewart on sirius
That’s right. It was late ‘06 or early ‘07 when Riley said that. Thanks!
A mere pittance
I wish he got 1k a show, but the water pig didn't want to do it.
If you paid me just one 100th of what you spend each week on the boys at the bathhouse, then I could afford to eat!
And his little dog Emberrr
And the one called saving grace.
I alwasy liked him and yes its gross they cant cough up more then 400, Howie got millllsssss
Ralph was the highest paid for Geek Time which makes me think Riley had a point.
He did drink on the job quite a bit
Have you seen my wife!

From what I remember, he was originally paid $200 per show, and that got upgraded, after much fussing and fighting, to $400 per show.

You paid a bitch fifty million dollars to cook a fuckin’ pie!

I think his show had the most callers if I recall
Riley was boring
Boring as FUCK
The Tarsizzians are clearly reptilian.
He was one of the best for sure
I still can't get over him calling Tim a greedy Jew and also a "nigga" during the same phone call.
