They Call Me Baba Booey by Gary Dell'Abate & Chad Millman Book Summary

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Includes all-new ma-ma-material!
ALL NEW CHAPTER:
Baba Booey’s Afghanistan Journal!
and . . . the Shvoogie Buzzer story!

One of pop culture’s great enduring unsung heroes: Gary Dell’Abate, Howard Stern Show producer, miracle worker, professional good sport, and servant to the King of All Media, tells the story of his early years and reveals how his chaotic childhood and early obsessions prepared him for life at the center of the greatest show on earth.

Baba Booey! Baba Booey! It was a slip of the tongue—that unfortunately was heard by a few million listeners—but in that split second a nickname, a persona, a rallying cry, and a phenomenon was born. Some would say it was the moment Gary Dell’Abate, the long-suffering heroic producer of The Howard Stern Show, for better or worse, finally came into his own. In They Call Me Baba Booey, Dell’Abate explains how his early life was the perfect training ground for the day-to-day chaos that comes with producing the most popular radio show on earth.

Growing up on Long Island in the 1970s, the youngest of three boys born to a clinically depressed mother, Gary learned how to fend for himself when under attack.  Obsessed with music, he listened with religious intensity to Casey Kasem's Top 40 every Sunday morning, compulsively bought 45s of his favorite songs, and nerdily copied the lyrics into a notebook. Music became an ordering principle to his life, even as the chaos at home got out of hand. Dell’Abate’s memoir sketches the trajectory from the obsessive pop-music trivia buff to the man in the beekeeper’s mask who handily defeats his opponents playing “Stump the Booey.” We learn about the memorable moments in his life that taught him to endure epic bouts of humiliation and get his unique perspective on some of his favorite Stern show episodes—such as the day he nearly killed the Mets mascot while throwing out the first pitch, or the time his mother called Howard’s mother and demanded an apology.

Hilarious, painful, and eye-opening, it’s Gary as you’ve never seen him before, telling a story that even Stern show insiders can’t begin to imagine.

Weak. Great guy but weak book. Nothing revealing or anything we didn't already hear a billion times over especially now with sterns "best of" replays. I was hoping for some behind the scenes stuff maybe insight on guests, etc. Naturally stern established ground rules in writing the book. Very safe

Good read. Really enjoyed this book. Even if you're not a Stern fan, I think you'll like this book.

Great. Very entertaining

Great book for fans of the Howard Stern show. Gary is an honest writer, and there are some great stories here.

Gra gra great!. Amazing book by a truly amazing guy. A true family man with a heart of gold and incredible work ethic. Kudos to the only sane guy amongst a bunch of social misfits!

No more lists. Really good book but dates got all out of whack it would’ve been awesome if you just did it chronologically it threw me off a little had to switch gears and not to pile on but no need for the lists of anything every chapter man don’t need the lists of everything

Even a Monkey could write!!!. Gary you made me cry, but mostly you made me want to read your story. Thank you!!!!

Flee Fla Flunky. The details behind the magic that created a set of enormous teeth, smelly gums and rotten toenails. All kidding aside, Gary's life is one to admire, from his strong family ties to his dedication to The Stern Show. A great read that will make you want to consider carrying your dog's doodie wherever you go. I give it a noyne and a half.

I give this book.... Noine out of ten.

Baba booooey. Great story. I'm a big fan of the show and Gary is one of my faves. Thanks for sharing.

A must read for any Stern fan. Gary rocks! The book fills in many blanks from over the years. He's a great guy who's overcome a lot. The book is a great mix of Booey background and show related stuff. It does run long in some parts.... this is a book from Gary after all, wonder how much material didn't make the book... but a truly enjoyable read. Would have liked more pictures though and D-Bag Stern (whom I love!) should have written a forward! Baba Booey to you all.

AWESOME BOOK GARY!!!!!!!!. I'm 40 and never read books....UNTIL NOW!!!!! After everything you've been through, you turned out to become a great father, a dedicated worker, and a truly wonderful person that I admire Sincerely, James

Big Fan. I truly enjoyed reading Gary's book; he really presented a great flow of his life experiences.

Mac-hine!. Hello hello Ta-ta-toothy! Great book from a great man. Congrats on the success, Gary.

They call me fafa fo high. Was aight. Good work Gary

They Call Me Booey. Gary is really well spoken and a great storyteller on the air; and now he can add great writer to his resume. This book kept me riveted.... It's smart, funny, and touching. Baba Booey Baba Booey- you rock!!!
