Artie Lange, sidekick on the Howard Stern Show, has checked into intensive outpatient rehab for substance abuse.

Lange, 40, has struggled with narcotic addiction for years and has been to rehab many times before.

It seems he’s back to his old ways.

Last April he walked off the air after having an physical altercation with an assistant and it was thought he may have been using again.

Artie has been very open about his drug use, telling listeners story after story about being drunk to snorting cocaine and heroin.

I hope the guy gets clean, because yeah, he’s funny. But he’s also a fat f***ing loser. His mom still cleans his apartment and brings him food..

He’s just lucky enough to have Howard there to deal with his shit, because not many other employers would put up with him. He’ll eventually end up a nobody, a washed up old comic. Then maybe he’ll realize how good he had it.

Artie Lange, one of Howard Stern’s sidekicks walked out of the studio yesterday after getting into a fight with his personal assistant on air.

Just before walking out Artie tells the crew, “I’m not a good person. I gotta leave, buddy. I love you.”

Me thinks Artie is boozing and coking it up again. He sounds terrible - without even seeing him. I have to admit though, I haven’t listened to the show in awhile, pretty much since they moved to Sirius, so I don’t know if this is true. But I do know he has a major history with that crap. Regardless, geeze Artie, take a f*cking chill pill.

Anyhow, listen to the drama unfold and judge for yourself.
