Unsurprising that the full story shows Adam being an enormous hunk of greedy loving poo poo worse than anyone previously imagined to be the case. Ugh. What a completely disgusting rear end in a top hat.

Link for the lazy. She was going to keep quiet about it, but Adam went and had to go on the offensive about her, which forced her to tell the story. Adam, you retard.

I haven't really listened to his podcast in a bit, but i think I'm done officially now. He's really just out of touch with reality.

Whos cares, she was depressing and couldnt riff with Adam. End of story. Enjoy podcasting out of your dining room you idiot. Why does it take her 30 minutes to explain what Adam explained in 5 minutes? OMFG shes STILL crying about her dog? JB50 fucked around with this message at 00:03 on Feb 9, 2015 |

JB50 posted:Whos cares, she was depressing and couldnt riff with Adam. End of story. Barely anyone can riff with Adam because he cuts everyone off and talks over most anyone he doesn't think can keep up with his "genius." It's why most of the "big" guests he had early on don't come back--he's pissed them off with this and they don't care to deal with him now. How's she an idiot? Her podcast isn't great by itself, but she's a better interviewer than Adam ever will be, and can at least loving write compared to Adam who just rambles and let's people dig poo poo out. And Adam explained it in 5 minutes? Really? Adam can barely give a single thought in 5 minutes and as I recall, spent nearly an hour burying her. She spent what--20 minutes on it? She was clear, concise and to the point about it. And you could tell she was reading from notes to make sure she didn't miss her point. Something Adam could benefit from instead of burying himself worse with the situation. Bottom line: Adam is a dick and regardless of who you believe, it's easier to picture Alison's version of the events over Adam's any day.

I pretty much believe everything Alison says about Carolla's key points, especially since the rest of his points were so petty that it was obvious he just needed *reasons* in an attempt to save face. It's nice to know what really happened, but all I learned was Carolla is a huge rear end in a top hat and that's clear to anyone who listen's to Carolla. Maybe I learned he's even a bigger rear end in a top hat than I thought, oh and that Dr. Drew is 100% right when he points out how scared everyone who works there is. I laughed pretty hard that allegedly a couple people tried to convince him to not go on the offensive against Alison (who wasn't doing anything) and his response was, "you're an idiot I know what I'm doing." It seemed like at the time of that show, and now after hearing about him threatening to fire anyone who still associates with Alison, that he blames the fan backlash on her. As opposed to, you know, himself for handling it in the worst way possible, letting her stay on for so long if the fit truly wasn't good, and oh having a show that has been dropping in quality for months. THANKS A LOT ALISON

The odd thing about the Anthony Cumia episode is that Adam often lumps Alison and Bryan together, whether it was asking them to prepare for a show, or if it was Adam dreading talking about racing/cars. Bryan gets a pass because he does sounds, Adam also mentions, but it's still awkward, and since Alison's left, it sounds like Bryan tries really hard to add a lot more commentary. Then having each peon chime in to say how Adam is right is really uncomfortable. Adam has a lot of un-entertaining guests (why do I, as someone in DC, care about a local politician? why is he having an author on that I've never heard of? why is Jo Koy, who I do like, on AGAIN?), has repeated a lot of stories, and is only getting worse about his personal views that he works into every show. I'm finding myself listening less and less.

As Alison also mentioned, it's apparently an open secret there that a lot of people don't want to go on Carolla's show because of his politics/opinions (or possibly because you just sit there and watch him talk, as Doug Benson points out often), so his pool of potential guests is constantly leaking which means THE PEOPLE DEMAND BUNG LU SU.

Sarah Silverman said her main reason for never going on Adam's show again was because it's pointless and you don't even talk. That there are guests who don't want to get sucked into Adam's right-wing hate speech is a new one that I'm glad is getting pointed out, though.

Silverman has been on the show once a year. I don't think it's personal and they seem like good friends (she also mentioned it's a pain in the rear end to drive out there). Not sure what kind of guest list you think a daily podcast should have. He gets a decent mix of comedians and actors. He's had Seth Rogen and Kevin Costner in studio the last few weeks. Artie Lange, Patton Oswalt, Iliza Shlesinger, Jon Hodgman, Jim Jefferies, and Jeff Dunham in the last couple weeks. His Take a Knee podcast has some impressive names on it too. I don't think he'll ever be booking Tonight Show quality guests but for a daily podcast, they seem to do pretty well.

My problem with his guests is you get next to nothing ABOUT the guest. They show up, he'll ask a question or two, then talk over them until it's time to go. It's super obvious how poor a job he does if that guest is making the podcast rounds and appearing on say Maron the same time period where you go from good, interesting discussion with humor and information about the guest to "tell us where we can see you," and then a rehashing of the same tired Carolla story before he gives out their website and Twitter and then back to his own poo poo. Basically, it's just a morning radio show at this point where it's all fluff with nothing of merit, but uncensored. And that's super disappointing because I know Adam can interview guests and it be interesting, but he chooses to do this poo poo thing where he only half cares and wants to hear his own voice.

Remember the very first podcast episodes? Aside from Adam tossing a cell phone across the room, what I remember the most is him really interviewing the guests. He used to always say "I'm interested in the journey" and he'd get some really good stories and arcs out of people. Christoph Waltz? Alonzo Bodden? What the hell happened to that show? That show was awesome.

Adam has said a lot of times that Hollywood and the Hollywood press don't like him. He's in the news regularly for saying or doing something controversial. Right or wrong, this has made his podcast fall off the publicity circuit despite it being a major podcast. He should be able to get anyone who has been on the Nerdist or Joe Rogan. It's not that Adam dominates the conversation that's the problem, it's that the publicists who arrange these things don't want the association. What happens if Tom Hanks goes on the show, Adam gets into a rant and says something racist, Twitter lights on fire, and now everyone is asking Hanks to comment on what happened? What's worse, this would happen right before the movie he was promoting is released. Publicists have enough to worry about with regard to their celebrity client saying something controversial. The last thing they want is to line them up with a host who is a wildcard when there are better options. A lot of actors would be relieved by having the host carry the conversation. They can promote the thing they have to promote without having to be interviewed and perform like it's on a stage. It pisses off the audience, but it's not why Adam's guests have been declining in quality. The dream interview for a lot of celebrities is to sit there for an hour and laugh at someone else with no pressure to say anything unless they actually have something to say.

I don't know what show you guys are listening to if you think the guests have been declining in quality. You can argue he sucks at interviewing his guests but he has not had problems booking big names. The only podcast drawing better guests is Nerdist and part of that is his willingness to travel to do interviews. His show is treated probably the same way any other morning radio show is treated. It's probably beneath some of the top names but it's also a nice spot to plug stuff that are in his demo. And for all the talk he has about how Hollywood hates him, he gets a lot of opportunities. He's got an hour long show on Spike that was renewed and expanded. He's had a bunch of other cable TV shows over the years. He's had networks invest millions into pilots he was behind. He seems to think that if he can't get $40 million to do a movie he's a pariah when a lot of funny people out there aren't able to get funding.

Go back in the archives up to 10 years back and check, and you will see every single Carolla thread on SA have the same comments: "this show is getting worse and worse every week, I'd be surprised if it lasts until the end of the year without getting canceled. By this time next year Adam will be back doing construction." That prediction has been around for over a decade now. You see it every year.
