Hi oki,

Meepzorp is an alien from outer space. In the past, he appeared (or was mentioned) on a few TV/radio shows, including "Saturday Night Live" (particularly during the "Coneheads" sketches in the 1970s), "The Muppet Show", and the "Howard Stern Show".

He still occasionally calls in to the "Howard Stern Show". Meepzorp enjoys jokingly speaking to Howard Stern's "Whack Pack" members. When Meepzorp calls in to Howard's show, it is extremely hilarious. I think those are among the funniest moments in the history of the "Howard Stern Show".
