IIRC he was posting a bunch of videos and pictures on twitter at the height of COVID of himself and a large group of people in a restaurant and people started calling him out and he said he was using a little UV light to check the cleanliness and then he posted that he got COVID like 2 days later

He's on Fox News all the time too. Drew's fall makes me sadder, Adam was always a dumbass he just used to be funny. Drew I respected and got me through some things as a teen.

I didn't turn on Drew until his VH1 show Celebrity Rehab. Just one of the most disgusting and exploitative reality shows to ever exist.

Yeah. With Loveline, it appeared he was trying to provide a public service, but holy poo poo he’s just a huge piece of money-grubbing poo poo who’ll do anything for a buck.

Adam called him out on that during his loveline days. He was doing a poo poo ton of side gigs, no matter how odd or sketchy back when he was on the radio, and especially when loveline had a TV show.

Dr Drew was always konky. He'd recommend people get on Zoloft. Guy would talk about the importance of the human orgasm for mental wellbeing and prescribe impotence agents to the same person.

That said, I still listen to Loveline to this day.

The loveline smiles I used to get thinking about holocaust caller etc. have faded... just over time, maybe overuse. BUT one thing that will still make me smile is a story he told towards the tail end of when I was listening to the podcast. I might have a couple details wrong, I mostly remember the feeling: Adam went to dinner with Vince Vaughn and told him about the time he saw that a pain-in-the-rear end neighbor's house was on fire, and not only did he not call 911 he in fact hoped it burned down with the guy inside. Vince was his NEW NEIGHBOR lol, and was appalled. And Adam told the story in kind of a sheepish, forked way, like he wanted to get past the humor and then get back on Vince's good side, like he was imagining Vince was listening or something. And Bald was delightedly pulling on the funny thread and Adam was borderline running interference on his own story.

Even when Drew got into the podcasts, apparently he still had a full time job as a physician? I'm not sure, but Adam referred to 'rounds' and stuff.

He was part of rotating staff, which is normal. Usually they rotate between different facilities, but he’d just do one rotation at one facility..

Yeah, he was still a real doctor, not a love doctor. Loveline was after work, he originally did it as a public service and I don't think he was even getting paid in the beginning.

Just checked, of course Dr. Drew is on Cameo for only $169. He’s 64 and still doing this? Would have thought at that age he’d have enough money to own a condo on Kauai & spend as much time there as possible. At least that’s what I’d do.

Dude probably makes a cool hundo from taking ten minutes to make a selfie video

I will call dr drew a shitbird for many reasons but if someone will shell out for your cameo, make those bills imo

That was one thing that really stuck out when I did a big Loveline binge a few years back- they could just causally drop an n bomb on occasion, but were absolutely fobidden from saying, like, poo poo. Terrestrial radio (and the 90s) were wild.

I don't know if I'd consider his motives a "public service". I think Drew always wanted to be a celebrity doctor. It worked before the lead started seeping into his bloodstream.

It's kind of funny because the pandemic would have arguably been the best time for him if he hadn't gone crazy. Media was dying for any sort of medical figure who could speak well on camera. Still insane a guy who worked as a doctor for that long just decided a deadly virus was "just a cold" and that vaccines no longer work.

Doubly funny considering Drew went out of his way to bring flu vaccines to the studio and told people to get them every year. If that wasn't on LL it was when Adam was doing podcasts from his house even more recently than LL.

Might ruin some of the mystique but they interviewed the songwriter and guitarist at separate points on the podcast years back:
