Baby Boomer icon Howard Stern seems, if you listen to his radio show, like the most unevolved man alive. Porn stars, strippers and the mentally disabled are all cannon fodder for his raunchy brand of morning humor. But that may be (mostly) a gimmick. Stern is definitely a child of the Age of Aquarius, swearing by Dr. John Sarno, who believes most back pain is psychosomatic. And Stern has meditated since college, getting his whole family -- parents included -- in on that activity (A family that meditates together ..?). Now, Stern is taking his act on the road, publicly declaring his love for the Eastern practice which is bound to have curious effects on our pop-culture. From HowardStern:
"Howard noted that he recently spoke with director David Lynch and agreed to speak at his upcoming Transcendental Meditation benefit concert. Howard said he began meditating daily after first trying it in college: 'All of a sudden I stopped smoking cigarettes...I lost the desire...It wasn't like a forced thing. I just said, 'Today, I'm done.' Howard continued to praise the cult-free technique: 'You see changes in yourself. It's very interesting.'"
David Lynch, whom we have interviewed, is, whether one regards him as an eccentric artist or not, one of the more intriguing people in show business.
