From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia

Jackie Martling (born February 14, 1948) is a comedian and comic writer whose greatest fame came from being a part of Howard Stern's radio show. He has also released several CDs of his own material.

His most famous act is quitting the Stern show. He left because of a financial disagreement with the radio station for which he and Stern worked. Martling himself admitted that the amount of money under dispute was extremely small; despite this, he left the show, refusing to sign a deal.

He has spoken of his unabashed fondness for smoking marijuana and drinking Heineken.

Rumor held that Martling's departure was meant to force the station to cave into his demands, and that Stern would force them to agree, but Stern did not intervene. Utimately a deadline passed and Martling did not return, so the station stopped negotiating and the show began to look for a replacement. Eventually, Martling's role and duties on the show were replaced by Artie Lange and Benjy Bronk.
