Jeff The Drunk aka Jeff Curro, who is also known as Jeff the Bore, has been a member of the WackPack for 28 years on the infamous, controversial but alway anarchically hilarious morning radio programme, The Howard Stern Show. He is a larger than life character who has really embraced all of the good, but mostly the bad, parts of existence, living each day as if it was his last.
Curro is a long-term substance abuser, suffering alcoholism, tobacco and cannabis addiction, as well as being paralysed in one arm following a car crash in his youth. He first came into the public eye when he called The Howard Stern Show in 1992 to enter a competition. He won, the prize being a trip to Las Vegas. He became a regular guest on the show, a fully fledged member of Stern’s WackPack (an assortment of weird and wonderful personalities heard throughout the history of the radio show) and was renowned for becoming “spectacularly inebriated” before going On-Air. Curro established himself as a firm fan favourite following the death of his mother in 2006, which resulted in an “outpouring” of sympathy from “hundreds” of the show’s fans. They, along with Howard Stern himself, wrote tributes in a guestbook hosted on the website of New York’s Times Union newspaper.
A big presence on social media, Jeff has a large Twitter following of 61,000 and growing, his own Chellowood “Lights, Camera, Next!” facebook page, and is available for personalised video messages to anyone, anytime, on the wacky Cameo platform.
