I think his friend Carl was a big fan of the Stranger, which is where you cut off circulation to your hand until it goes numb and then you jerk off. It was either that or he'd actually hump the mattress itself.

Carl was the guy that would beat off by humping the insides of a beanbag chair. I remember Adam telling the story "anonymously" on Loveline and mentioning the guy was a school librarian.

This episode illustrates one of my only problems with Adam, which is that he needs someone to tell him to shut the gently caress up when he talks about dumb technical poo poo for eleven hours. Drew always called him on it, which is one of the reasons why the duo worked so well.

I actually find most of it interesting, though he does have the gearhead problem of trying to talk over others to seem more knowledgeable. He does the same thing with construction. That said, the episode just illustrated to me that I really wanted to see him host Top Gear.

He's been stating that every time, really, that it's just them chilling in his den or living room. Dr. Drew even mentioned that his kids were in the next room taking a nap.

I actually kind of enjoy hearing about it, as someone who never really listened to TACS but has heard him on Loveline endlessly making fun of Drew's parenting style. He always had a routine spiel for Drew; "you worry too much about your kids, you're going to give them eating disorders".

Fast-forward to the present day, and he's now admitting that he's going to give his own kids eating disorders because he's planning out things to worry over years in advance. He's planning out the two-week long lecture he's going to give them on zits, anticipating what to do if they're stagnating in life at 22 years old, etc. It's just amusing to hear him in this new role.

Doug Benson's pretty goddamn boring, though.

It's called being a good parent. Laissez faire is what Adam's parents pulled and he's not exactly great big fans of them. In Drew's case it was funny because rich semi-Jewish doctor worrying about his kids when he's proven time and time again to be a very big spazz over money. Like a walking stereotype, the poor guy.

Doug Benson is usually a pretty funny guest. I think he was just having an off night and didn't have a lot to contribute to Ace's topics.

You should all check out Doug's "I Love Movies" podcast. He has some great guests like Patton Oswalt, Sarah Silverman, and Paul Scheer. Dana Gould was on it a couple months back. It's only once or twice a month, and it's only 30 minutes, but it's hilarious.

I really hope Adam takes Doug up on his invitation to be in I Love Movies.

Drew really is a caricature of himself at times and I love him for it.

Gotta say though that that is not being a good parent at least not if your kids realize you're freaking out. The trick is for the kids to move out or whatever and suddenly realize you've been making GBS threads bricks for a couple decades.

I actually enjoyed this podcast much more then I had expected to. As much as I love a good Ace rant, and Lord knows I do, he's such a good conversationalist that it was great to be able to eavesdrop on him talking about a subject I know nothing about.

Wouldn't fly on drive-time LA radio, but is definitely in the spirit of where I feel that he needs to bring the podcast to make it an ongoing success - talks with interesting people about what they do/did, without breaking for commericals or Tivo trivia.

Unghhhh. This is perhaps the worst show I've listened to in so long - Unwritten Law - 2002 with Dr. Bruce.

gently caress Unwritten Law are the most obnoxious cunts I've ever heard. Also they're egging Adam on to bully Bruce. :( Sure Bruce is contrarian to the Nth degree, but fuuuuck Unwritten Law are stepping on every. single. line. Wade of Unwritten Law: I LOATHE YOU.
Surprisingly Unwritten Law are guests again on Jan 22nd, 2003. While not nearly as bad as the show I think you're talking of, I really want to punch them all in the face. I'm guessing Wade is the one that keeps starting his sentences with "check it out dude --."

Sometimes they do a lovely MTV band and it's really surprising how realistic the guys are. I'm thinking of a Queens of the Stone age episode where right at the beginning one of them drops a very dirty word on the radio: Payola. I can respect guys that acknowledge their fame is only a product of a corrupt industry, especially when they'll actually make jokes about it.

This is kind of a last-minute emergency and it's probably too late for me to do anything, but I am expecting about 26 hours of driving this week and it would be GREAT to load up my Ipod with some classic (Adam Corolla) Loveline episodes to listen to during the drive.

Where can I go to find a good selection of these? I know LovelineArchive got taken down because the IP holders decided to "cancel" the permission they gave, so I have no idea where you go to acquire/pay for this stuff now. Someone mentioned ITunes, do you think I could find a handful of Adam's episodes on there? Or should I look elsewhere?

Again, is not a piracy post... I'm not asking for free episodes if episodes aren't supposed to be free. I'd buy them on Itunes if I have to.

I was going to therapy the summer DAG's contraceptives-as-black-kids'-names stuff happened. If I hadn't been tuning in to Loveline I probably wouldn't have gone to therapy, bought Drew's book, and gotten out of a rough relationship.

Good times, great oldies.

I've been spending a lot of the last few weeks listening to podcasts leaked during that "glitch" the night before TACS went off the air. That poo poo got me through a 12.5 hour shift at an Irish restaurant yesterday.

Wait until you hear Adam interview Kenny Rogers about all those songs.

"They took turns at Becky... there were three of them!"

Kenny told Adam that The Gatlin Boys actually went on tour with him and that there were indeed three. I'm still pissed Adam didn't bring up the interview results with Norm the next time he was on.

What's the Coward of the County?

It's this song Kenny Rogers sings about a horrible rape of this guy's girlfriend and in the song he doesn't have the balls to stand up to the rapists. Put to a nice little ditty! Apparently it was a radio hit at one point. The rapists in the songs are named as "The Gatlin Boys", and Norm and Adam thought that was funny because at the time there was a country group called The Gatlin Boys.

quote:

Evryone considered him the coward of the county.
Hed never stood one single time to prove the county wrong.
His mama named him tommy, the folks just called him yellow,
But something always told me they were reading tommy wrong.

He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison.
I looked after tommy cause he was my brothers son.
I still recall the final words my brother said to tommy:
Son, my life is over, but yours is just begun.

Promise me, son, not to do the things Ive done.
Walk away from trouble if you can.
It wont mean youre weak if you turn the other cheek.
I hope youre old enough to understand:
Son, you dont have to fight to be a man.

Theres someone for evryone and tommys love was becky.
In her arms he didnt have to prove he was a man.
One day while he was workin the gatlin boys came callin.
They took turns at becky.... there was three of them!

Tommy opened up the door and saw his becky cryin.
The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could stand.
He reached above the fireplace and took down his daddys picture.
As his tears fell on his daddys face, he heard these words again:

Promise me, son, not to do the things Ive done.
Walk away from trouble if you can.
It wont mean youre weak if you turn the other cheek.
I hope youre old enough to understand:
Son, you dont have to fight to be a man.

The gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the barroom.
One of them got up and met him halfway cross the floor.
When tommy turned around they said, hey look! ol yellows leavin.
But you coulda heard a pin drop when tommy stopped and blocked the door.

Twenty years of crawlin was bottled up inside him.
He wasnt holdin nothin back; he let em have it all.
When tommy left the barroom not a gatlin boy was standin.
He said, this ones for becky, as he watched the last one fall.
And I heard him say,

I promised you, dad, not to do the things you done.
I walk away from trouble when I can.
Now please dont think Im weak, I didnt turn the other cheek,
And papa, I sure hope you understand:
Sometimes you gotta fight when youre a man.

Evryone considered him the coward of the county.

I think it was one of those things that started at them laughing at the fact that the subject matter is so gruesome, and then the thread kept getting pulled and they thought it was funny that in the song he initially doesn't do anything about it, etc., etc... I had forgotten that Tommy FINALLY does something about it.

They also thought this one was pretty funny:
Ruby

quote:

You've painted up your lips an rolled and curled your tinted hair.
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere?
The Shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down -
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town

It wasn't me that started that old crazy asian war
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore
And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be...
Oh Ruby I still need some company.

Its hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralysed
And THE WANTS AND the needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realize,
But it won't be long i've heard them say until I'M not around
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town

She's leavin' now 'cause I heard the slammin' of the door
The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before
And if I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground
Oh Ruby
Don't take your love to town
Oh Ruby
God sakeS turn around

The riffing on both of these songs lyrics are some of the funniest moments ever.

I'll have both of these shows soon for people to listen to.
