Gary Dell'abateright Gary Dell'Abate (born March 14, 1961 in Uniondale, New York) is the producer of the Howard Stern radio show. His nickname "Baba Booey", frequently used on Stern's show, originated when Dell'Abate was telling the story of his prized collection of Quick Draw McGraw animation cels, and mispronounced "Baba Looey", the name of McGraw's sidekick. As typical on the show, the rest of the cast "goofed" on his mistake. Dell'Abate said something to the effect that they would forget this name the next day, yet over a decade has passed and it is still his nickname. The phrase has become synonymous with the Howard Stern show, and is often used as a tag for crank calls to live network TV broadcasts, for example during the OJ Simpson low-speed chase, to signal the host that they have been fooled. In the case of OJ Simpson, Peter Jennings had been duped. Gary has been married since 1992 to Mary Dell'Abate. The couple has two sons, Jackson and Lucas.
