So Adam finally got kicked off Dancing with the Stars. Kinda sucks.

Right now I'm working on a script to export all my mp3 tags to an excel spreadsheet. Since all my tags are perfect it should work out pretty well.

Also, I had to grab the 1000th post in the thread.

Is there any place online to watch the Dancing with the Stars bits with Adam in it?

10-16-2001: Guest is Steve from Smashmouth who has a foul mouth and loathes Anderson's existence because he keeps on playing "I'm a Believer". It becomes punishment after he lets his second s-word fly. That wasn't his last offense. Not worth an entire listen, but it was hilarious to hear him say that he wants to kill Anderson.

10-17-2001: Night of absolute idiots, with a couple of brilliant callers, and a bonus secret at the end! (Worth a whole listen)

I think you and I are psychically linked or something.

The Smash Mouth episode has another golden nugget when a "British" girl calls in, Adam calls her out on her accent and it turns out she's Steve's girlfriend and she tells the world how he tucks his penis between his legs to look like a girl when he gets out of the shower.

Oh, Jesus. On a quality hunch, I listened to 10-18 of 2001 after the other 2, and it was ALSO an excellent one. The call where Adam made up vagitarian and then called Jimmy about it, and then the airhead who kept asking Adam and Drew random questions, and then came up with the drop, "It's just that you guys SEEM like teenagers, but your voices are like old."

Drew Pinsky has some really crazy ideas about the evolutionary origins of alcoholism. He thinks it developed during years of warfare in Scotland because the same gene which makes people drunks also allows them to keep their wits about them on the battlefield. They do best under lots of pressure.

It think it's plausible that extenuating circumstances that demand high performance under duress may exert a selective pressure on traits that increase our ability to handle that. I don't think he's claiming that warfare in Scotland was the sole cause of alcoholism, but perhaps Scotland's violent history may have had a role in increasing the proportion of addict genes, assuming they did in-fact improve wartime fitness.

First, as another poster said, he didn't say alcoholism originated in Scotland, but that it was a trait that was naturally selected for. The same might be said for some Native American tribes where it's really strong. Recently on Dr. Drew Live he correctly guessed that a caller had at least 1/4 of a certain tribe in her blood since every single member of her family was an alcoholic.

I don't know how accurate that idea is, you'd expect the most violent groups to breed the largest number of alcoholics and I don't know if that's the case. But his point is that, without plentiful alcohol or drugs around, the alcoholic gene seems to serve people well in some other way, and that seems plausible to me.

11-14-2001 (Guest Tori Amos) - Tori Amos is a guest, and she comes off as quite crazy; however, not as crazy as Adam's rant after she leaves. Fantastic social commentary.

11-15-2001 - Post-Tori Amos show with a bunch of Ozzie drops comparing the two. Boogie + Lightning Round; overall a solid episode.

I got really fed up with the couple of weeks after the 9/11 show and started skipping ahead because the only thing more depressing than work is work and people talking about 9/11. Point being I settled on the Tori Amos show and she is amazingly crazy in a very lucid way. She must have some kind of previously unknown condition.

wow, i remember searching for archives of this show around 1999,2000 when I moved to the east coast and stopped listening on a nightly basis but i couldn't find any. I was a regular listener of the show and used to lay in bed with the radio turned real low and listen until i feel asleep from 4th to 8th grade. I still remember the episode when the lead singer of Pennywise got drunk and barricaded them/himself in the studio.

Thanks so much for posting the links in the OP, i can't tell you how excited I am to listen to these shows again.

Agreed. Loveline Central is my goddamn haven. Thank you goon genius. I got into LoveLine from reading this thread mid-late last year, I've now got all of 2001-2004 and am getting 2005 at the moment. I've listened to 2003-2004 and am now midway through 2001.

After listening to my first month's worth of shows and reading through the thread I couldn't believe fellow Aussies/foreigners asking if Adam was being serious when guessing if most callers were Jewish. His style of delivery is pure genius, he has a laconic but razor sharp wit that I've yet to see matched and so many times I've gone "I-. that is the most perfect analogy. I agree completely."

Now I consider myself a sick, crazy devotee. This is partially proven as I present to this thread, a "Callers Tribute" to LoveLine:

2003-09-08 has the best smoke detector call ever. Most callers know they have one going off but ignore it, this caller is so dumb she vehemently denies even having a smoke detector with a low battery. It starts at around 39:30 and had me in tears.
