TheBigBad posted:You know who I hate? Anderson. I hate his rear end so much. He plays those loops a billion times and their funny like twice out of that billion. Otherwise he's just loving with the caller and annoying Drew with them. He's also a pretentious prick who hangs up on people for no good reason, even if it's getting interesting. Anderson's greatest night is undoubtedly the 12-16-2004 episode featuring Papa Roach, where Anderson is drunk and tripping, and they have a technical meltdown. Anderson finds out that his phone can only be heard by the broadcast and not by Adam or Drew and proceeds to freak out on the air. Then he tells Adam how he sells his Christmas present on Ebay every year. This is the same episode with the fudgepacking and Theo's christmas song, too. Probably the best episode ever.

Nemo posted:My favorite bit of Adam and Drew banter was always when Adam would try to relate the caller's problems to Drew's children. It made Drew horribly uncomfortable and Adam just wouldn't let it go. This is pretty related to my own favorite moment of Drew's, which was where one of his kid's friends called in with some rather bizarre sexual problem. He refused to take the call on air once he learned that and told the person to talk to him in person next time she came over to his house, if I remember correctly.

Adam really tore into Loveline this morning on his show. I had always imagined that everyone there had an overall liking for one another, and even Anderson and Adam got along in a bizarre friendship way. This wasn't the case apparently. According to Adam this morning, no one ever liked him and he battled Producer Ann, the Production Manager, and pretty much everyone else minus Drew for the entire ten years.

It depends how exactly you're defining "worse" but I'd say by any measure, Stalin was at least as bad as Hitler. I don't want to derail into a historical debate especially in a Loveline thread so I won't be retorting here. I'd be happy to list primary and secondary sources that counter these arguments and will do so if you'd like(Just PM me  )I am going to edit my original post to make sure it doesn't derail en masse. I don't want either of you to think that I am ninja-editing or anything of that nature. I was just a little short sighted and didn't consider that my comment could be inflammatory.

Holland Oats posted:I like Theresa too and I generally don't agree with the people complaining here but I hit a wall with the Natasha Leggero show. Two or three straight shows with Adam going on a 15 minute rant about Africa was my limit. Today's Africa rant was so stunningly terrible that I also had to turn the podcast off. Going on and on about how disgusting it was and how terrible the people were was just infuriating. Especially the part about "there isn't rape in africa, its called building a family  "

The Senate posted:You are the same guy that got mad at him saying Stalin was worse than Hitler. Maybe you should just find something else to listen to? Clearly this is not the podcast for you. Wild assumptions ahoy. Foremost I didn't get mad by any stretch of the word. I voiced my disagreement with what Adam said and when it became apparent that it was going to derail the thread I apologized and stopped the discussion so the thread wouldn't derail further and offered to take the discussion to PMs(which was declined.) If anything this is the exact opposite of getting mad in that I didn't start making GBS threads up the thread with sources and walls of text to convey my opinion on a smaller comment made during the show. This was just a disagreement with what Adam said on the show and there was no emotional attachment made to it. Secondly, I am sorry that you feel that any disagreement with Adam disqualifies someone from enjoying the show. I actually enjoy the show quite a bit but I also disagree with Adam from time to time. Since his official forums are awful I instead post my disagreement here. I don't see any problem in disagreeing occasionally and enjoying the show at the time.

Glad to see that the show's mainstay of rape hilarity continued uninterrupted today. At this point I really just wish they would group it all together at the end so that as soon as I hear it mentioned I can just click on something else to listen to rather than skim through the rest of the podcast with the hope that a less juvenile topic comes up.

I only meant that some people in this thread seem to worship Adam, like a golden calf1 if you will. While they themselves lead continue their normal lives, they idolize Adam Carolla as an average man's avenue to straight forward, and occasionally crude, humor dealing with current events. This led me to put forward an idea that if they saw Adam in person they would experience a sudden sexualization of their idolization and respond by ejaculating/orgasming before they could control themselves. Since this is generally frowned upon by society, it would be embarrassing. I thought this would be funny since it was both a semi-hostile comeback to what I perceived as insults and incorporated the crude humor typically seen on the show. I am sorry if it did not translate well. Edit: To further justify my attempt at making a joke, my previous joke that referenced Scooby-Doo2 seemed to go over rather well so I attempted to continue my streak and make another joke. I suppose I should consider my streak broken.

Today's podcast was very enjoyable. Johnny Knoxville is consistently a funny/hilarious-trainwreck guest and he and Adam have a good chemistry. I also think that now that the new format is getting settled into a routine both T and Bald Brian are fitting in well. Hopefully the upward trend continues.

I'm not sure I understand this argument so let me try to summarize and correct me if I'm wrong. -Adam says that Leno is ignored at the Emmies because people are snobs. -This thread says that it isn't true that people are snobs, Conan is objectively funnier. - This is followed up with the argument that Adam shouldn't defend Leno on the basis that the Emmie people are snobs but rather on the idea that Leno is a friend but objectively less funny than Conan. Aren't you proving Adam's point about snobbery in saying that he must know that Leno is inferior to Conan and must be defending him because he is a friend? Maybe he really thinks Leno is funnier, you know, gets his brain tickled in a way that Conan doesn't. I'm not an expert in comedy though, so if I ain't getting something just let me know.

exponentory posted:I was under the assumption Minka does indeed seldomly play tennis, as the number two (or was it three?) big boob queen? Minka used to be number 1, back in the heyday of polypropylene string implants. However those have been replaced by other methods and are actually now illegal. Regardless she has been surpassed by the newest generation of big boob queens. BeShine and Chelsea Charms are one and two respectively. Third is probably Miosotis. Hitomi Tanaka and Fuko Love are 4th and 5th. Minka is probably a distant 6th or lower given how poorly PSIs performed in the long run. BeShine is the only PSI-augmented model that is still around frequently and she has monthly surgery to remove the fluid buildup that results from those implants. Bad juju.

Adam was really only mean to callers when they would call, ask for advice, then decide that they no longer wanted advice, but were actually offended at the suggestions made by Drew. Otherwise he seemed pretty chill. He'd make fun of the callers as a whole, but really he was pretty tolerant overall.

NotWearingPants posted:He (Maron) had a feud with Greg Fitzsimmons too but Fitzsimmons barely seemed to be aware of it, or at least didn't really care. They are actually pretty good together, Maron being the ultra-neurotic hyper-sensitive basket case and Fitzsimmons being a guy who loves to instigate and provoke reactions. Maron is pretty much hosed as far as relationships go, and this is coming from someone who loves his podcast. A vast majority of his problems with celebrities seem to be imagined or grudges held for twenty or thirty years now. Not to mention that everyone he has on that knew him prior to being interviewed had at some point pissed Marc off to a point that he stopped speaking to them.

Vertigus posted:I've listened to like six of Maron's podcasts based on recommendations and on every single one he talked about how he had some sort of grudge with the guest. The Patton Oswalt one confused the hell out of me, and there was one where he was talking to a young comedian and talked about having problems with the guy when the guy clearly had no idea what Maron was talking about. Maron appeals to a really strange niche. I don't want to sound  but you have to have a streak of manic depressive in you to really understand where he is coming from when he does his flow of consciousness bits. His comedy isn't really funny imo, but it is incredibly relatable if you have the same streak in you. He mentions this in the adam podcast that his audiences are diverse, but the one common factor is the pretty much everyone in the audience is alone, manic-depressive, or outright nuts. And I wouldn't really call him famous. He is a man who is a wreck but he is honest about it and he is trying to get through it publicly. He knows that he has massive failures in his life, but he still doesn't quite get why they happened and he is inviting you into his 100s-of-mixed-puzzles emotional trainwreck People are drawn to that for some reason. Also say what you will about him, the man is an ace interviewer. Gallager being an exception. Edit: Sorry, I know this thread isn't about Maron. Also in that interview, Adam made one of the most poignant points I have ever heard him make. His story/point about how when you are really poor, you consider success to be this alien idea that you can't even interface with except when you visit other people's houses, and even then you don't really get it.

Sir Liquid Jerk posted:Giovanni is a really weird motherfucker, he had access to a lot of obscure LL related things like a full two hour security tape of the second Pennywise incident. He was such a crazy weirdo though he got banned from a private LL torrent tracker despite the fact he provided such a large amount of content for it. Didn't he essentially sell the LL/ACP community down the river once he actually started working for Adam? I remember reading widespread discontent about how Giovanni was more or less calling any complaints about the podcast the ravings of deluded fans when it was just people trying to give Adam honest and accurate advice regarding technical aspects of the show.

FAT WORM OF ERROR posted:The Darkness always seemed really hyped up as storming out the show but in reality it just seems like the band were out of their depth and it wasn't what they were expecting and politely said they were going to go. To be fair I seem to remember that show started with a bunch of rape calls too. Yeah The Darkness episode is incredibly exaggerated in Adam's memory for whatever reason. It pretty much went like you described. A bunch of really horrible calls and then the band just said, "hey, we're not really comfortable giving advice on this, we thought this was an interview program. Best of luck but I think we'll head out, sorry." And that was that. Compared to Pennywise, The Gorillaz, or Adam's Worst Gas Ever Night, it was a placid affair.

Teepkick Shakur posted:
Not sure what episode it is in, I think it was an episode of the Morning Show where Dr. Drew was on, or maybe one of the really early podcasts. The story basically went that Adam had gone from being locally known and very well paid to being nationally known with The Man Show and just wanted to gently caress around Hollywood for a while, and at the same time he and Lynette were living together. So he dumped her but she couldn't afford to pay for her place, car, etc, when he left because he paid for so much. So he bought her apartment, etc, outright and gave it to her so she wouldn't have to downgrade. Then they stayed friends for the year he hosed around, then they got back together and got married. The weirdest thing was that, according to Adam, his year of dating around Hollywood was an abject failure and didn't result in much at all. The whole story really gave the sense that he had vastly overestimated his own fame and influence and fell flat on his face.
