Wednesday on The Howard Stern Show, listeners tuned in to an interview and live performance with Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters.

Stern and Grohl talked about life after Nirvana and the Foo Fighter's lucrative music career, and played a number of their greatest hits.

When Stern played "My Hero," he mentioned that many fans thought the song was about Kurt Cobain, but Grohl said that wasn't true. Grohl said he wrote the lyrics really quick while recording in a house in Seattle, and contrary to popular belief, doesn't believe its the best song he's written.

Grohl believes his best song was "Times Like These" because of its simplicity, and Stern agreed that it was one of his best. Grohl said it's a song kind of about a band getting back together instead of breaking up.

Grohl also commented on Prince's cover of the hit "Best Of You," and that he never called him, but they did have a jam session once. Grohl was on the drums, and Prince was on bass, and they shredded it out.

"It was wild," Grohl remembers. For sh**s and giggles, Stern also asked if Grohl liked "Gangnam Style," and Grohl said he's not judgmental when it comes to music. "If you like it, then like it," he said.

The Foo Fighters performed songs from their new album "Sonic Highways," including "Something from Nothing," and Stern said they rocked it out.


Hey Now Highlights

Stern Calls Janice Dickinson a "Nut" Amid Rape Allegations Against Bill Cosby, and Stern wouldn't be wrong. A few weeks ago, Dickinson came out as another one of the many women accusing Bill Cosby of drugging and raping them.

At the time, Stern commented, stating how Dickinson appeared on his show in 2006 and made remarks about Cosby.

However, Stern noted that Dickinson would be the person you want accusing you because she comes off as a kook. While Howard expressed grief about the situation, he admitted some speculation because she is a bit of "nutty broad."

Robin Quivers Reports She Still Doesn't Have Cancer. Since Robin Quivers was diagnosed with last year, she's had to visit a doctor every three months for a routine check up.

Wednesday, she happily announced that she is still cancer free, and now only needs to visit the doctor once every six months.

She said that soon she will only have to visit once a year, and be completely cured. Yay for Robin!
