That's what it should be. Instead it's anywhere from 5-15 minutes of needless details on the content of the episode you're about to listen to.

This is just not correct but sure ok.

5-15 minutes is definitely an exaggeration, but they can be 1-2 minutes long, and often will spoil all the good calls of the episode. Some of the fun of listening to the episodes is not knowing exactly what will be coming up, and when it's all laid out at the very start it kind of kills that.

This exact kinda thing ruined the holocaust call for me. It was funny, but I'd heard about it so much and heard it in clips multiple times before, so it just wasn't that funny. Now the Venison Italy call caught me off guard and was hilarious.

You better remember quick before we haul your sweet ass down to the precinct.
Just curious does anyone listen to the Adam and Dr. Drew podcast? I wrote it off when it first came out and gave it another chance today and can't stand it. The rants are painful, Dr. Drew schilling whatever product they have on commercials, almost no calls. Anyone else feel similarly?

It looks like I gave it up in late 2014. Drew's bizarre libertarian slant coupled with Adam's abuse and an absolute limit of two phone calls from sycophants wasn't exactly a loveline reboot I was interested in.

I was without my hard drive with all my Loveline on it today, so I went on Podcast One and listened to some classic episodes there. It was really funny to listen to Giovanni in the intro because he was complaining about how there's not a perfect Loveline archive, and that's because so many people are uploading things and taking credit for things they didn't do. And that's what causes the low quality and mislabeled episodes and global warming. He ranted for a good minute about it, and it tickled me to know he was thinking, at least partially, about people on Something Awful. I got a good laugh about that.

I am usually immune to people's stupid political views if the content still keeps me entertained while I drive, but that show died for me around the same time it did for you. I was still downloading them for another year but I ended up choosing pretty much anything else to listen to. Adam being rich and Drew being a TV celebrity ruined whatever they're doing now. I tried getting back into Loveline, but the weird themed episodes and Drew's awful cohost ruined that as well.

He would probably shrug and go 'eh...I got old. It happens. Happens to everyone. But I've still got a sweet house up in the hills, old lady seems happy, got a coupla kids, the man can't tell me what to do, and I haven't had to deal with Anderson in years. Could be worse.'

He'd be ecstatic. I don't think he'd care at all about his lost "integrity".

I assume he makes in the 8 figures now, is completely free of rules in his podcast (he plays by his own rules!). The more educated and technically more successful (in all facets of life) Drew STILL depends on Adam at some weird level.

Would he trade all that in because he once had a nearly transcendental level of amazing banter with some abused 14 year old girl from the Midwest? Just for his loser fanbase? "KISS MY rear end", he'd tell us, from 1995 to now.

How'd you figure he is making that sort of coin? He has his podcasts that I doubt bring in a great sum of money, contractor which might be worth 500k to 1 mill a season(???), and his books. Feels like it would be well short of 8 figures to me.

His podcast made 4.4 million in 2014.

Anyway, when did he stop announcing his yearly income and why?

googled his networth, which I guess isn't his yearly, but its at 15 mill.

some sort of residuals from Loveline, Adam Carolla Show, The Man Show, Crank Yankers, all his short reality series, the many many small parts in movies and TV shows he's done, such as Buzz Lightyears boss , dancing with the stars, the hack books he probably didn't write. Also his commercial endorsements.

Do you know which episode that is/which podcast?

I still occasionally listen to new stuff but it is sad what it's gotten to. I tend to turn it off when it goes into political poo poo, and I've been playing a game of how long until complaining about airports/cops.

The Adam and Drew eps where Jim Jeffries was filling in for Adam were good.

No. Carolla doesn't give a poo poo about the quality of the products he puts out, or rather, he judges the quality based on sales and then just rehashes previously successful ideas, which results in a reductive feedback loop.
