To be fair to George, Adam was barking up the wrong tree in terms of logic, so to speak.

Adam really needs to shut the gently caress up about all things torture-related, because he's so unbelievably ignorant about it. Or someone needs to call in and set him straight. I'm really tempted to at this point. edit: "Torture works because it's been around for thousands of years." Really, Adam? Couldn't the same be said for religion or astrology or any number of things you dismiss as superstition? God, he pisses me off sometimes.

http://www.lovelinetapes.com/shows/?id=1121&h=MGM2NWUwNGM 2-25-03 at 1:13.26 a 20 year old girl calls distraught about the ending of her relationship with a 35 year old singer/actor. adam, drew and kathy griffin of course mock this individual. then the caller reveals he is a celebrity, one that they would know. she talks to them off air for a second, and they do all believe her and know this celebrity VERY well. there are a few other clues littered about, do you guys know who her boyfriend is? edit: im dumb, the lovelinetapes show summary gives up who it is quote:There is a very "Bizarre" call from Christina who is dating a mystery actor/musician who is 35 and she is 20, she is calling to ask why he dumped her. heh anderson CatchrNdRy fucked around with this message at 00:25 on May 21, 2010 |

I see - you care so little that you were compelled to post about it. I would be happy to agree to disagree, but it's kind of tough when he rants about it every other podcast, and it's always the exact same rant.

If anything Adam's rants should simply remind us all that most celebrities and popular entertainers know very little about anything outside of their area of expertise and one should always take their opinions with a grain of salt. This includes musicians as well. Adam is not the only ignorant celebrity spouting off at the mouth about politics or current events. Totally unrelated, what is the consensus on the Adam Carolla (Morning Radio) Show? I started with May 2006 and have been going through each episode daily, and a lot of it is really funny (especially rear end kiss rodeo, Deaf Frat Guy and Oswaldo doing pretty much anything.) Dave Dameshek was initially very irritating but has really grown on me and I really enjoy his commentary, although on a recent episode he told Theresa to gently caress off during a commercial break and they spent the next segment addressing it, she was crying, it was really awkward and I lost some respect for him.

I actually haven't listened to any of '06 and very little of '07; '07 sounds like it had its moments too, but Danny was just awful.

I actually started listening to the Bonaduce era after I ran out of the good 08/09 shows. It's definitely worse and he can be incredibly annoying, but it's not that bad. There's plenty of good stuff, and Danny can be funny now and then. I'm especially enjoying it now because I'm getting later into the year and there's a nice subtext of Adam and Bryan being irritated at Danny's poo poo. Bryan particularly is getting assholish with the drops and it's hilarious.

Daves of Thunder is oddly entertaining as well. That incident you mentioned with T was great radio. I'm a big Teresa fan, but I still found the whole debacle very entertaining over the following weeks. Dameshek is apparently on this week's The Parent Experiment with Teresa and Lynette Carolla. It should be interesting, even for those of us who don't have kids.

In contrast, I stopped listening to the podcast after the first year because it was clear to me that while Adam enjoys being in an echo-chamber, he needs some measure of restraint if only to give him something to struggle against. With him in total control and surrounded by yes men, he's spun off entirely into a more distilled version of himself which can be hard to listen to.

Is there a primary source for his radio shows? I'd like to give some of them a shot. I'd also like to know the exact date of the Teressa/Dameshek quarrel. I'm kinda biased for Dave, but i want to hear it before I make a call.

Hope the podcast gets better in the next couple weeks. Since Adam's pilot didn't take off he said he is going to put a lot more work into the podcast. Hopefully that means permanent Brian on a soundboard and T on the news and a lot less boring guests I could care less about.

Also Dave's mom was on the line to play a trivia contest and scolded him on the air as if he were a small child immediately afterward. Good stuff. I've been getting them from here.

He has a pretty low opinion of most liberals due to his horrible parents and he sees this as one of those "things pussy liberals complain about". At least he stopped talking about his ridiculous lie-detector idea. Has he stopped bringing up microwaves that can handle metals yet?

Yeah, that's what I've gathered myself, and in that sense I can't blame him too much. His mom especially sounds like a real loser. Even so, I find it kind of ironic that he takes so many things as factual based on what could be described as faith alone.

A website I'm a member of had a group video chat today. I sign on and the FIRST thing I hear from one of the girls' webcams was a smoke detector chirp. Almost as soon as I signed on. I proceeded to ask her what was up with that and of course, she and her boyfriend "don't notice it anymore". She told me it was chirping the day she moved in - 6 months ago. After I pointed it out everyone else in there went nuts too. Ugh.

Of all the things on Loveline the smoke detector chirping for six months is the craziest. If my detector chirps for more than five minutes I'm going at the thing with a goddamn hammer.

Either that, or she wears earplugs or something like that. I can't imagine how one could just get used to a beeping smoke detector, to the point where one wouldn't even notice it.

The weird thing about beeping smoke detectors is that the people who ignore them aren't necessarily stupid. My sister had one going off every minute in her apartment and she's actually really intelligent.
