caffeinefree posted:As much as I love Carolla, his morning show stinks. Teresa usually adds nothing to the conversation other than "Yeah" or "I agree" and Bonaduce is the most annoying man I've heard in radio. He snorts loudly and very frequently, and ALWAYS has to bring any conversation to his drug use, ex-wife, some whores he had sex with, or some dude he was about to fight. At first it may seem like Dr. Drew adds very little to the comedic value of the classic Loveline shows. However, it's not until you listen to Adam and Drew separately that you realize how important the pairing was to the comedic pacing of the show. Alone, Adam becomes too much to deal with and at times downright obnoxious. Pair him with Drew and you get just enough of a break from his commentary (and vice versa) to create a really enjoyable pace that keeps both of them from taking over completely.

I nominate one of you goons to continue the mission! Germany or Florida is no longer played, as mentioned in the last thread. Another thing that was abandoned when Adam left the show.

MaxxBot posted:Well as I said the last time I listened to this was around 2 years ago, but I think I can remember one little bit that stuck out especially. Dr. Drew said something like "well have you used x drug more than 2 times? If you have you most likely have serious brain damage." ...And he was probably referring to a drug that was strong enough to cause those long term effects. Drew will always admit when he is wrong and the previous correction was right. He was talking of long term effects.

Clive Barker is surprisingly down to earth when he is a guest. You'd think that due to Adam's attitude he would be a little bit flustered, but he rolls with it wonderfully.

TylerDurden posted:For the most part yes, but he does get a little weird when Adam tells that woman to put out once in a blue moon to please her husband even though her sex drive is dead. In general he felt a little weird and aloof for the whole show as I'm remembering it, but definitely not an rear end in a top hat. He definitely comes alive during that segment, but he does make a very good point. What really got him going was Drew's metaphor, saying that she should treat it like a job. One of the few instances where I've heard Drew admit that he used a poor metaphor on air. By the way, does anyone have the string of shows that DAG hosted with Drew after Adam left? The Loveline Archive removed all shows after Adam's departure.

Grand Fromage posted:Uploaded DAG week. http://www.grandfromage.net/SA/ Good luck have fun. Thank you. TylerDurden posted:Drew is rarely ever good when it comes to metaphors and analogies but I think it was pretty valid as far as I remember. I don't wanna get into a whole thing here but as far as I remember Adam and Drew were comparing going to work as something you didn't want to do but did anyway to her putting out once in a while and Clive got somewhat indignant because sex is supposed to be this special sacred thing that is only to be done out of love and passion and never as something to get out of the way. I think he was being a little too sensitive there. I just agree with his point of view that it isn't something you can just get over. I think that is usually one of the few things that I disagree with in regard to relationship commentary from Adam and Drew. I think they are both too passionate to see it any other way. Passionate, passionate men who must get it!

Spirit of 1994 posted:I wanna say it's one of the Seth Green episodes, or maybe a QOTSA episode, but the premise was that Dr. Drew needed a catchphrase, and he decided he would randomly interject "I'm a rapist" into conversations. It only lasted for like one or two callers though, as I recall. Are you sure you are not confusing the origin of the catchphrase for one of the DAG episodes where they come up with catchphrases for each of them? I believe DAG's was "You wanna tango?! Let's Bossa Nova!" No idea what it means.

One of my favorite moments came back to me and I am dying to hear it again. Adam tells the story of the time he went all the way to San Diego in the hopes of spending a weekend with a girl he met five months earlier only to be disappointed at how much weight she had put on during their time apart. The story was told in the context of how men are not equipped to say "No!" to a woman's advances.

Malachi Constant posted:Adam on "Talk of the Nation" discussing why he created "The Man Show" and the idea of "The New Machismo". - Funny because Adam is intellectualizing on NPR and debating with callers and the editor of Details and Spin magazines. Also, he asks a caller for his TV when he says he doesn't watch TV anymore, and he berates a caller who says "The Man Show" leads to rape. You might need a RealAudio alternative to hear it. (47 minutes, January 2000) The woman you mentioned in that description sounded exactly like the "victim" you'd expect her to sound. Everything happens TO her because of a third party's actions.

For what it is worth, I live in North Carolina where these lights are all over creation, LA probably doesn't have empty roads with 5 minute light cycles even though like 10 cars an hour roll through the intersection late night Yes, the scenario you described is exactly what most people are trying to avoid when they irresponsibly run a red light.

pilot posted:If a hot, young, legal girl wanted to have sex with you, then would you, as a single guy, turn it down? If that girl turned out to be a little more mature than most girls her age, as well as had a developed sense of humor, why is it wrong to date her? If you click, you click. This whole "a little bit more mature than most girls her age" rap is always misleading. These people usually just have some issues and being interested in much older guys is just one way that it manifests itself. They are never more "mature" than everyone else their age. Enjoy yourself though. It doesn't have to be a "bad" thing. Just know that it has nothing to do with being very mature. Judakel fucked around with this message at 18:10 on Jun 5, 2008 |

I highly recommend the 2001 episode with Seth Green. I am not a fan of Family Guy but Adam makes Seth his bitch in a hilarious way. At one point he gets him to recite a Bible verse as his character on the show.Saerdna posted:Being mature means starting relationships that are sure to end disastrously and not learning I am going to assume you are adding your 2 cents and pointing out that most relationships between people with a drastic age difference end with people learning nothing from it.

The reality is that some of Adam's views border on the retarded and having 4 hours of him is too much. Drew, instead of playing his stooge, balanced him out and brought him down to earth every now and then. The same could be said about Adam's effect on Drew.

Grand Fromage posted:Judging by his statements, yes. He thinks Arabs hate everyone and are incapable of being dealt with rationally, they only respond to violence. I doubt he has any idea that places like Iran were once very popular American vacation destinations. I don't know what you're trying to prove here, since his own statements adequately demonstrate a significant lack of knowledge about the Middle East. Carolla's Loveline years don't seem to indicate that he thinks all Arabs hate the U.S. and therefore it is impossible to engage any country in the region rationally. He has had plenty of bad things to say about conservative Arabs who partake in normalized abuse (such as female circumcision) and those who dislike western influence, but he knows there are more progressive Arabs out there and he has commented on it a time or two. I remember a call close to 9/11 where a girl was very offended that Carolla had seemingly lumped all Arabs into one big pile of anti-U.S. sentiment when telling Drew how much he disliked the qualifiers that many clerics added after their condemnation of the attacks. Carolla was pretty quick to clarify for her that this did not mean he felt all of the Middle East was a "problem" or that everyone in the region held anti-U.S. sentiments. quote:I don't want to drag the thread off topic, but there's not really an argument. He knows a lot more about World War 2 than the average person but that doesn't make him a Middle Eastern scholar. I agree with you that Carolla knows little about the Middle East, but that was not the argument you framed above. There is no arguing with the fact Carolla is no scholar on the Middle East, but he acknowledges that not all Arabs fall under the same umbrella from an ideological standpoint. He may know little about the Middle East but he has rarely spoken out against those who hold more progressive stances in that area of the world. Passing comments that generalize along the lines of "those people..." is as far as he has gotten. When prodded he has made the distinction between those who promote hateful anti-U.S. sentiment and those who do not. If he has explicitly said otherwise on his new show then please let me know.

Phone posted:He can recognize a poo poo car, mainly because it would be a poo poo car. He doesn't rag on American cars, but he knows the difference between a good and bad car. It just so happens more times than not, American cars cannot keep up with their Japanese and European counterparts. Has there actually been an American car that he has spoken highly of during his years in Loveline? Carolla has made his contempt for American cars pretty clear over the years. Muscle cars from the 70s have even received their own rants.

Graham Wellington posted:Just listened, it's a drop that Anderson throws in there. It's not Sarah. I remember an episode where that drop was used and Adam started to talk to Drew about it. He started out with "You remember those two?". Apparently they were playmates who came in, were very obnoxious, and Adam asked them to leave at some point. One of them dated Charlie Sheen according to Drew. Unfortunately they mentioned no names throughout this conversation. Another one of those conversations that just feels like Adam and Drew talking off-air.

Grand Fromage posted:These days I think it's as good, if not better than Loveline. The first year was a little rough, it seemed like Adam didn't have much control. Then there was the Year of the Bonaduce, which got old very quickly. Now it's right on target. Eh, I think most of us saying that we don't enjoy it wouldn't enjoy any "good radio" as Adam would call it. I enjoy Loveline for the same reason I enjoyed The Ricky Gervais show on XFM. It is a little bit of a mess and even the hosts have contempt for the show. They just sit back and chat like old friends without worrying about "segments", "characters" or proper radio. Attempts at proper skits or segments are for the most part half-assed during these shows. They lose that feeling of everyone involved being completely unprepared. I think that is the biggest shift between TACS and Loveline for me.
