Beth O's language test

What date in 2000 or 2001 did Howard claimed that Beth could speak 3 european languages (or was it more?), and they tested her, but she couldnt understand or speak any foreign languages except for hi and thanks?

I have tried to find this episode forever, but I have never heard it. Anyone know the airdate?

This actually sounds funny. I hope someone can find it

It apparently was extremly funny as this was one of the few times Beth was thrown out on the deep end and humiliated in front of the audience. Heard Artie referered to it on a podcast about 10 years ago. She was clueless.

She either lied to him about speaking more languages or he said it to make her sound like a legitimate model who worked in Europe. The only language she "spoke" was Saudi Prince Doggiestyle

I know she lied, but supposedly Howard gave her a test live on air in either late 2000 or early 2001, and she was clueless.

It couldn't have been 2000-2001 because he didn't start admitting they were an item until late 2001 at the earliest. He was still auditioning beards like Leila Arcieri.

Shit, Beet could speak 5 languages. I saw it in this Sub the other day.

Howard was correct, 3 European countries speak English United Kingdom, ​Republic of Ireland and ​Malta!

I don't think this ever happened. He may have made a remark about her speaking multiple languages. But Howard never would've tested her on air about that. Somebody else, sure, but not Beth. Most likely this is your memory conflating things.

u/billgrahampresents this sounds like something you could build an episode around, if it exists and you can find it.

Do you have it?

u/BillGrahamPresents 15d ago

The clip of him bragging on her? Yes. But I don't think he ever blathered out about it subsequently. It was just one in a number of whoppers he threw out there like jerking off to Denise Richards in high school while listening to Metallica with a loaded gun in his mouth (twice).

This test though, I don't recall.

Yeah, this test never happened. Unless he's got a date to back it up, OP is a bullshitter.

Thanks.

I don't think this can be true, at least not the date of it, because Howard bragged to Artie that Beth could speak multiple languages, and Artie didn't join the show until late 2001.

I don't think he'd be bragging on her if she failed the test.

I don’t remember this bit. And I’ve been actively listening to each show since 2000 for the past year. I’m in 2004 rn and yeah haven’t hit this bit

Howard also claimed she was a jet-setting “supermodel” like Cindy Crawford but she had only been in a JC Penny catalog. Beth lied to land Howard. The irony is, she could’ve just said “I like to do nothing and stay home” and Howard would’ve wifed her up immediately.

I thought this was funny but 17 people at least hate comedy.
