“Yes, everyone is great, but let’s face it, he was outflanked,” Seinfeld said.

The producer assured that better comedy podcasts are being aired, including Carvey and Spade’s show.

“This is the best show on the air,” Seinfeld continued. “Because you’re having fun together, it’s smooth, you’re not jumping on each other, which is annoying to hear.”

Representatives for Stern were not immediately available to Page Six for comment.

Aside from Seinfeld, Stern has made several enemies over the course of his decades-long career.

Last year, the media personality’s former radio rival, Mancow Muller, born Matthew Erich Muller, took the opportunity to slam Stern for disgusting comments he made in the 1990s.

During the docu-series “2000s Dark,” Muller opened up about their feud, sharing that Stern publicly criticized him and threatened to “rape” him while his dad was battling terminal cancer.

“My father was a $30,000-a-year furniture maker and he became the number one topic on Stern’s show for a year,” Muller said.

“The countdown to his death and how he was going to have sex with my mother,” she recalled. “How he was going to use my mother’s saliva on himself when he raped me, how he dug up my father’s body, told his listeners to go to my father’s funeral.”

Stern also has a 30-year feud with Kathie Lee Gifford.

The “Way” star previously revealed that Stern “hated [her] courage,” even though I never met him during a 2018 appearance on the “Today” show.
