They sit there because they are selling themselves in hopes of some kind of career or just plain notoriety in show business. So anyone who can't find similarities in both shows is missing something. Stern is just a highercaliber smut.

Like a sheep in wolf's clothing is how I describe it. More often then not they inquire as to
how they got the point of sitting in the studio naked. Maybe it doesn't do anything for the girl sitting there, but without fail it's a textbook case as to how they got there and also how to NOT raise your kids. And like Rockport said, it's really a very small part of the show. They spend the normal amount of time discussing women if you ask me. Hell I spend more time in 4 hours discussing women then they do. Not only that, but in their personal lives, which are discussed regularly, they're all loyal dedicated husbands, fathers, boyfriends, etc. First hour of many shows on Monday (and at random points during the week) is talking about what they did with their kids during the weekend. Most of the staff on the show are far better parents then most people, it's sad to say. Model parents even. Countless people who have called the show and done something stupid to their girlfriend or kids get torn apart by the crew.
I'm not saying they're inncocent, just that they are anything but what the common perception tells you they are. With all the REAL problems with the world, I just find most of what goes on on the show to not really be that disturbing.
