What The Other Guys Have To Say:
Brian: "Howie D.'s always been the mediator, between like, if there was a quarrel between one of us or two of us, then he would be like, 'Guys, can't we just get along? Let's stop this, it's not worth it.' So he's always, Howie's always very quiet as well. He's not very talkative."
