Bald Bryan helps open the show by saying he feels let down for his recent performance at the Live Show. Adam compliments him on his soundboard work, and talks about his love of drops in general. He also compliments Teresa on her sense of humor, and points out how much he and Lynette agrees she contributes to the show. Teresa also talks about working with Jack Silver again, the adjusting to AM radio.

 

After a discussion about their depressing families, Adam and Teresa jump into the news. Teresa talks about Mad Men creator Matt Weiner being cut off at the Emmys, and both she and Adam agree they are sick of Betty White. Teresa also talks about The Huffington Post’s offer to destroy Glen Beck’s reputation and take him off the political map, but Adam says he doesn’t find him hateful. They talk a bit more about his politics, but Adam concludes that we’ve got ‘bigger fish to fry’ and that he’s not really causing any harm.

 

Larry Miller comes in the studio, agreeing whole-heartedly, and joking about having last week’s bit stuck in his head for the entire week. Everyone tells stories of having Bald Bryan’s drops stuck in their head, and Larry and Adam talk about belly dancers who must smell awful. Larry plays a round of Hypothetical Road trips, and has hilarious confusion over The Hills.

 

Adam welcomes Shim Moore to the show, lead singer of the Australian rock band Sick Puppies. Shim talks about the band’s new record, ‘Tri-Polar’ and also discusses moving out to LA five years ago. Adam asks him about being the lead singer of the band, and what it’s like to have requests that aren’t met. Shim then plays the band’s new single, ‘Maybe,’ and Teresa remarks that he must get a lot of women. Everyone talks about Australian social skills, and what it’s like to grow up being bullied.

 

In the rest of the news, the top story involves Paris Hilton’s felony cocaine possession. Adam talks about ‘no tolerance’ vs. ‘zero tolerance,’ and Shim discusses the Australian DUI process in relation to Mel Gibson. Teresa wraps up the news discussing the Chilean miners that are still trapped, and Adam imagines what it would be like to entertain them.

Adam opens the show with What Can’t Adam Complain About. He takes suggestions from the 200 drunk people yelling at him, and also makes fun of a video clip from his favorite porn, Taboo II. He also complains about the new vortex beer bottles, and says they should have worked on making the beer taste better.

 

Teresa jumps into the news, with the top story involving Glen Beck’s rally to honor MLK’s speech about restoring America. She also talks about Paris Hilton’s recent arrest for cocaine possession, and Adam says we all need to cut her a break and let her be a coke whore if that’s what she wants to do. Teresa also tells a particularly gruesome story about a young boy putting a used condom in his mouth, and Isaac Hayes offers his comments on all of the stories.

 

Adam and Donny get into a heated discussion about living together and Donny wanting money for the oven he bought before he moved out. They reflect on what their landlord said was ‘the most disgusting apartment I’ve ever seen.’ He and Donny also complain about the swamp cooler Adam used to own, and Adam vents about his cheap father.

 

Comedian Dov Davidoff joins the stage and talks to Adam about his relationship with his wife. He and Dov talk about women’s love of drama, whereas guys need to keep a level head if they want the relationship to last forever. Dov also talks about his girlfriend who he met and had a threesome with, and also shows Teresa the life affirming stuff he has written on his arms. Adam and Dov both complain about their ‘crazy hippie intellectual’ moms, and Tersesa points out there’s ‘something macho yet vulnerable’ in Dov.

 

Adam performs This Week In Rage, counting down the things that pissed him off the most in the last seven days. He also gets in jabs about mini croissants, and people who try to defend spiders.

 

In the last part of the news, Teresa talks about Madonna’s parenting skills. Adam can’t understand why the kids are being taught French, and he and Dov commiserate to eating from a ‘microbiotic diet.’ The last story deals with Bristol Palin and The Situation both being new cast members on Dancing with the Stars, and Adam comes up with a fantastic idea to keep The Situation’s shirt on.

It’s been some time since Adam took listener calls, so he’s very excited to jump right into it. The first caller just wants to see him perform live, and Adam tells her details about his two upcoming shows tomorrow at the Melrose Improv. Another caller asks him about ‘Mangria,’ and afterwards, Adam gets into a conversation with Bald Bryan about Undercover Boss and going to college at USC.

 

Next, Adam takes a ‘controversial call’ from a criminal defense attorney, who explains the standard excuses that various ethnicities use when involved in a domestic violence situation. Adam goes on a rant about America always kicking its own ass for being racist, but really we are more selective than that. He talks more about the education system, and says that we are doing a disservice by pretending it’s everyone’s problem, when it’s really focused on specific minorities. 

 

Adam also takes a call from an Australian listener, and contemplates going Down Under sometime. They talk about everything from racing cars to comedy music to the tax system. Adam also asks some questions about whether or not listeners abroad feel a disconnect when he rants about local issues, but he’s happy to hear that most listeners are just glad to have something to laugh about.

 

The next caller asks Adam about the decline of boxing popularity, and how he thinks it can be brought back into the main fold. Adam suggests some fights he’d like to see, and also some great fights he recalls seeing in the past. Adam also takes a call about personalized license plates, and teases Bryan about family members all named after the same letter.

 

A female caller would like to know how old is too old to start having a family, and another female caller puts her daughter on the line to do a killer Carolla impression. For the final call of the day, someone asks Adam why he doesn’t try putting his name on a vineyard or wine bottle. Both Adam and Bald Bryan think it’s a spectacular idea.

Teresa recently received a blurb for her book from Dr. Drew. She talks with Adam about being nervous to ask for it, but eventually reads it out loud. Since Teresa’s book deals with parenting, she and Adam go into tons of details about their relationships with their parents. Adam also rants against working with a talk show personality who tried to take over his Loveline project with Dr. Drew, and talks about the time he told her to fuck off.

 

Patrick Warburton arrives just as the news opens up. He talks about his new movie Rockslide, but quickly jumps into an anecdote about racing cars against Adam. The top news story involves Miss Philippines, who suggested during the pageant that she’s never made a mistake. Adam, Teresa and Patrick all talk about the things that they regret, though for Adam it’s more about regretting not telling people off that he should have.

 

Everyone listens to an audio of the dumbest speech ever recorded at a beauty pageant, and also discuss the fallout of the Tiger Woods and Elin divorce. Adam talks about some of the ways money can make you happen, and questions with Patrick about what it would be like to date Tiger.

 

Patrick talks about the new car he just bought, and compares it to being with a ‘beautiful but damaged’ lady. Teresa mentions a story about a guy screaming at his bike, and it reminds Patrick of guys that are physically in love with their cars.

Bill Simmons enters the studio, pointing out Adam's lazy plaid outfit. Adam talks about his wife taking his son into the doctor because of ear infection, and Bill offers the latest advice he's heard about medication for kids. Adam then starts talking to him about writing a blurb for his book, and Bill explains the publishing system and what it takes to make the Bestseller List. Bill speaks from experience: his 700-page Book of Basketball caused some controversy with publishers because of the length, but ultimately became a huge hit.

 

He and Adam start talking more about entertainment related issues, discussing the merits of Louis CK's new show, and what it's like to work on a sitcom with unfunny executives in charge. Bill also reminds Adam of his theory that 'the wrong sequel is always on TV,' and they talk about classic Chuck Norris projects like 'Missing in Action' and 'Walker Texas Ranger'.  Adam challenges anyone to leave their computer at home and put themselves at the mercy of what's regularly on television. They also talk about seeing The Expendables together, and the dangers of texting while driving.

 

Adam takes a listener call, who suggests to Adam and Bill to auction off a seat watching football with Jimmy and the gang. They transition into some sports talk, discussing Brett Favre's career choices and the size of his property. Wrapping up the show, Adam pitches his latest film idea to Bill, and Bill convinces Adam to pitch a movie he's been alluding to for a long time.

Adam talks about just returning from his run of shows in Denver, and goes into detail about the 'perfect storm of miscommunication' that is traveling with Donny and Mike August. He also goes on a rant about airport security, and talks about the backhanded comments he gets from friends of fans that are obviously not fans themselves.

 

Before jumping into the news, Adam and Bryan get a bit more background on Taylor Morgan. She talks about doing radio in Santa Barbara (among other places), and she and Adam talk about how beautiful the city is. Adam compares it to the grafitti-and-pothole ridden city of Los Angeles, and talks a bit more about the 'super aggressive, hyper-sexual' billboards on every corner. News stories revolve around Spencer Pratt doing something douchey yet again, and also a story about the Middle East, which prompts Adam to talk about the state of our 'global village' and how things may be in the next 50 years.

 

Next, Adam takes a few listener calls for a round of Hobo Power. You tell us the worst stench you've ever encountered, and Adam rates it on a scale from 1-100. This week, stories revolve around Middle Easterners who don't bathe, wrestler BMs, and repairing a broken sewage main.

Teresa is out today, so Mike Lynch is stepping in for the news. But before they get started, Adam tells a couple Donny stories. The first involves a long rant where Adam discusses the conspiracy of paying for your water at restaurants, and the next is a drawn out discussion about Donny borrowing Adam’s CBS pilot and not explaining that he watched it. Bald Bryan also chimes in on the argument, trying to determine the proper social etiquette to giving your friend feedback.

 

In the news, Steven Tyler has been strongly suggested as the newest judge on American Idol. Adam and Mike agree that the show has lost its momentum, and reflect on the best Aerosmith songs. Later, Adam talks about a car auction where he didn’t bid on a car wanted, but heard was ‘not what you think it is.’ Afterwards he met the guy who bought the car, but he didn’t want to ruin his day. The last news story revolves around the highest paid hip-hop artists, and Adam goes on a long rant about rich people paying their ‘fair share’ of taxes.

 

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones frontman and long time friend Dicky Barrett sits on the couch, and talks about Mike August booking him for the show. They also talk about Adam’s big ‘Garage Mahal’ makeover, and the experience of renovating the warehouse out back. Adam compliments Dicky on his past work as a bartender, and Dicky talks about tending bars from the Fatted Calf in Boston, to Adam’s private parties. He and Adam decide to trade their favorite stories, and Dicky unravels a truly epic story about traveling through Mexico, and eating PB&J sandwiches.

 

In exchange, Adam tells the story of a road trip with his old friend Daniel Kellison, an obsessive Boston Red Sox fan. Adam complains about the boring car rides, and hanging out with rich people he didn’t like anyway. Everyone then goes on a side jag about watching sports, hanging with Bill Simmons and Cousin Sal, and later they throw in some music related talk about the history of ska and the better Reggae songs.

 

After a quick round of Germany or Florida, Dawson tells a story of trying to get tickets to a Bosstones’ show and getting recognized by Dicky at the end of the set. Adam talks about the energy of the horn section, and says they have the type of show where it doesn’t matter if you know the songs, you’ll have a great time no matter what.

Aug 18, 2010

Adam opens up talking about being a trucker, and the various songs and movies based on that lifestyle. He wonders why people get excited about Tom Selleck Made-For-TV movies, when there are 'real movies' one or two channels over. He recalls a recent experience with Donny and Sandy Ganz, watching Walker Texas Ranger on TV. Haley Joel Osment and Mackenzie Phillips were both guest stars, and Adam can't believe the episodes made it to air. There's also some talk about racist backing music on the show, and Bald Bryan gushes about The Expendables.

 

Adam has a manuscript of his book with him, and he and Teresa start talking about the dedication pages. Adam doesn't understand why you have to thank people who are just doing their normal job, and wants to limit the amount of people he references. He talks about how some TV shows have tons of producers, and how this inflated number diminishes from the people who actually contribute to the show. Teresa, on the other hand, thanked tons of people in her book, however she recently removed her Dad from the list. She talks about the recent loan she co-signed with him, and the foreclosure that is now plaguing her credit. Adam rants about the non-responsibility of some people, and suggests their dads should have a  'financial tard off'. 

 

In the news, Dr. Laura is involved in a racial slur scandal after saying the N-word a reported 11 times during a listener call. They listen to the clip, as well as her follow up clip on Larry King suggesting that she is not renewing her radio contract when it's up at the end of the year so she can preserve her first amendment rights to say what she wants. Adam talks about the 'witch hunt for racists' in our country, but also doesn't understand why people listen to her show anyway. In other news, Tersesa brings up Blagojevich being found guilty of one felony offense.

 

Joel Stein enters the studio, immediately remarking on the condition of Adam's garage, which Adam explains is being renovated for a TV show. Joel is actually writing a book about how to be a man, so he can pass the knowledge onto his son. Since undergoing this project, he has done everything from UFC fighting, to firefighting, to hunting, and more. Joel talks about being trained to kickbox by Randy Couture, and also recalls with Adam a controversial boxing match he once attended. He also asks Adam to teach him about cars, and Adam spends a long time explaining how cars work, and what makes them so appealing.

 

Jumping back into the news, a South Carolina woman killed both of her kids, then faked a car crash to blame it on. Joel is fascinated by Teresa's selection of the story, and wonders if she feels better reading about bad parenting since she is currently raising a son. Teresa also talks about new developments in understanding Lou Gehrig disease, and Adam goes into a long rant about playing football and having your bell rung. He talks more about the 'sports mentality,' and how some people are 'used to dudes telling you how to do shit.' He wraps up the show talking about how his own son is a puss, and feels the need to teach him how to be a man.

Teresa recalls her experiences on El Al airlines, then returns to the list of highest paid TV actors for the second part of the news. From there, she jumps into a wide variety of stories: Mexico’s battle for gay rights, a perverted Disneyland employee, and also Vogue’s 1924 Book of Etiquette.

 

Greg Fitzsimmons steps in, just as Teresa leaves. He and Adam quickly go a jag about the Peanuts gang, and also reggae music in Hawaii. Greg was recently there with his family, and is very bitter about the luau experience.

 

Adam takes a listener call from a guy who wants advice about marrying a woman who makes three times as much money as he does. Adam complains about his wife never making any money, but Greg tells the caller he thinks marrying a rich woman may inspire him to work harder. 

 

Wrapping up the show, Adam reflects a bit more on Jimmy’s presence on the highest paid TV actors list. He and Greg also discuss Adam’s recent Live Show in Tempe, AZ. They both recall experiences dealing with club owners, and also doing stand-up across the country.

Adam and Teresa jump right into the news. The Flint stabbing suspect is still on the loose, and Adam offers a better motive for the killer. Teresa talks about having to co-sign a loan for her father, and talks about the importance of living within your means. Adam also tells more stories from backstage during his recent run of shows in Tempe.

 

The Ragin Cajun, Stephen Domingue, enters the studio with several samplings of his delicious Cajun food. He’s just spent the last couple months touring the country; cooking and filming for a new reality competition on the Food Network. Teresa teases him about losing to the crepe guy, but Stephen can’t say a word about who won. He talks about coming to the city with nothing, and then trying to bring ‘fais do-do’ to LA (or essentially New Orleans culture).

 

Adam talks further with him about the culture, and also the experience of cooking and eating an alligator. Stephen talks about how the oil spill is affecting his business, and also the impact of other recent events like Hurricane Katrina and the Saints winning the Superbowl. He’ll soon be serving his food at USC football games, and be sure to check him out on the new Food Network series, The Great Food Truck Race.

 

Peter North comes in, and Adam asks him how many porno films he’s been in. Peter says he’s lost count, but something like 1700. He talks about growing up in Canada, moving to LA, and eventually claiming fame for ‘the money shot’. Everyone has a good laugh going through his various porn nicknames. Teresa asks him some very personal but interesting questions about the finer details of filming, and Peter also clears up the controversial gay porn issue. 

 

They talk a bit more about the current state of the porn industry, and Peter flashes back to some of his favorite co-stars, and stories from the set. They also talk about his family’s reactions to his career, and the times Peter was so turned off, he couldn’t go through with the scene. 

 

Back to the news, they talk about a guy caught marinating a live cat. They also talk about American Idol judges, Bill O’Reilly, and Jennifer Anniston, which eventually leads to a conversation about having to do shitty movies to stay relevant. The final news story involves Bachelorette star Ali and her threats of having controversial photos released. It leads Adam into a rant about invasion of privacy, and how we seem to have lost all sense of decency.

Adam opens by talking about his recent run of stand-up shows in Arizona. He was recently talking to Sarah Silverman about how easy it is to do 90-minutes of stand-up when he has a project behind him, but of course, the lightbulb blew out towards the end of one of his shows. The new bulb wasn't working, so Adam was forced to do the show totally by himself. Donny chimes in to confirm that everything went great. Adam also takes a call from Kevin Nealon to discuss his fundraiser for his friend Big Joe, and Adam rants about members of his family always bumming him out.

 

The top news story deals with a Jet Blue flight attendant who got very upset after a dispute about the overhead bins. He told everyone off, grabbed some beers, and leaped out of the emergency exit onto the inflatable raft. Adam says he's now ready for all the bullshit lawsuits that will no doubt follow from people who were on the plane, and exposes his theory that gay men may be too high strung to be airline attendants. Another news story deals with Fantasia Barrino's suicide attempt, and the last deals with parents who lost custody of their children after several domestic incidents, including naming their kid after Adolf Hitler.

 

Today's guest is Adam Curry, host of the podcast “No Agenda”. Adam immediately talks about his European style, and talks to him about being tall and hugging Shaquille O'Neal. Curry also has a series of 2-minute 'Appisodes' which give video demos of popular apps that you may want to download. He talks about working on his own podcast, and how he once famously offered Howard Stern $100 million to move his show away from satellite and onto the internet. They talk about the future of the medium, and Curry offers his theories on Mel Gibson's recent behavior.

 

Talking more about running a podcast, Curry suggests to Adam that he should ask listeners to donate money to the show. Adam defends his decision to go a more commercial route, and Teresa points out that everyone has been very supportive of the show's advertisers. The conversation moves to the television business, and Curry says the Kardashian fad really pisses him off.

 

Speaking of entertainment news, Teresa says that they are about to make a biopic of Peggy Lee. They talk about the casting of Reese Witherspoon, and Adam draws comparisons to Sex and the City, and how the gay population will help that movie make money. Another news story deals with a confrontation where someone wiped a dirty diaper on somebody's car, and it reminds Adam of having to wipe his own kids' asses, even though they're four. The last news story involves a West Virginia man caught in the act with a mannequin, which reminds Curry of briefly attending school in the state. Curry talks further of growing up in Europe, and Adam praises his own 'spidey-sense' for recognizing this European quality earlier.
