I do not think Robin was the least bit 'idiotic' on the Howard Stern show. He was colorful, entertaining and spared us all of the drudgery of hearing the same indistinguishable interview over and over.

Is >this intentional or a subconcious act of revenge? > Marty From SF That's something I've thought about too. Is Robin being passive-aggressive by singing those Barry leads? Perhaps. It's odd that he chose to perform those particular songs (and to continue to perform them even after Barry let be known that he didn't like it). And I don't just mean the SNF songs. That is actually a little more understandable since it probably insures Robin getting higher profile bookings. It's songs like Words, To Love Somebody, and First of May, even HDIYL, which are associated more with Barry. It does make you think it may be his way of riling Barry. As far as revenge goes, well we need to know more information if it's really about getting even. What would be the motive? Barry refusing to work with him again?
