It's great listening to clips of Adam's racing, you can get a great sense of what's going on by the droning buzzing sound. If Drew had done something that stupid back on Loveline Adam would have yelled at him for 10 minutes for doing bad radio.

As with the million-mile mustang lady just making small talk, it's kind of mean how he shits on the cop car guy today - clearly an obsession with vintage automobiles is just a waste of time for the poors. Dude probably just wanted a kind word and a thumbs up . Now he gets to hear on Monday morning what a douche he is.

Is there some sort of mini-feud between Adam Carolla and Maria Bamford? On Bamford's episode of Comedy Bang Bang she makes a really awkward and unfunny joke about Carolla that insinuates that he was molested as a child. The joke kinda grinds the podcast to a halt until Scott Aukerman changes topics fairly quickly. I can't imagine Adam knows who Bamford is or that they would hang out in the same social circles outside of fellow Comedians of Comedy like Patton Oswalt and Brian Posehn being guest on Adam's show.

Go back and relisten to that part of the Comedy Bang Bang episode. You completely missed the point, and there was no awkwardness whatsoever.

She was making fun of his high, whiny voice by saying that he must have been molested at a young age, as the old Loveline adage goes.

Also did this guest today creepy everyone out like he did me? I dunno that whole thing just rubbed me the wrong way, especially bringing in a swinging pornstar and the over compensation of him not doing her and blah blah blah. I dunno weird day.

I hate how Alison can make a real funny joke and no one acknowledges it. Feels like it happens once a show. Like when they're talking about his daughter spitting in Olga's face and how it's a huge insult in Latin countries, then she casually jumps in saying it's a compliment to her. Went completely ignored but I laughed my rear end off at her delivery.

Even more frustrating is when she asks an actual great interview question and the insightful answer gets derailed so that we can all listen to the Deacon Jones clip again, or perhaps some audio of car engines with Adam's narration.

She should adopt the Bald Bryan method and just interrupt people in the middle of sentences with lovely jokes so that they have no choice but to go "heh, yeah" just to shut him and finish their point.

I look forward to his quips and find them quite humorous since I'm not already seething over him having the audacity to speak at all. I am thankful he was there for the two wrestlers on in the past week, and would take Bollywood over hearing the same Carolla SoaD story for the millionth time.

Adam has talked lately about how hosts don't know their guests work. How he'll go on a show and the person will know nothing about him. He uses Jimmy as a counter and talks about how he reads the book or watches a movie before the guest comes on. Then I realize that Adam has never watched Breaking Bad. The critically acclaimed show his friend who helped him raise over a million dollars stars in.

What? I could have sworn he's seen Breaking Bad, he keeps talking bout what a good show it is. Really? Jesus, I know it's been said, but the man has a complete lack of self-awareness. Where does he say the thing about hosts not knowing guest's work and when does he say he hasn't seen it? I want to write about this.

I want to write about this. He's complained about it multiple times in the last few months. He typically starts by ragging on how everyone has a podcast and how he just gets all of these requests for interviews and then he goes on the show and they don't know anything about him or Mangria. There is specific story he tells about the girl that interviewed him about Mangria. I've heard that story 2-3 times. I don't recall him not watching Breaking Bad, so I can't confirm that. Also, I feel really really stupid for realizing earlier this week that that ACS intro song is the Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

RightClickSaveAs posted:Breaking Bad, The Wire, Deadwood (he must have had one of the million character actors from Deadwood on at some point right?), Southland, Californication, all very popular and/or critically acclaimed shows he's had major guests on from and he hasn't watched a second of.

Don't forget about all the authors he has on who's books he not only doesn't read but doesn't even know what they're about. There was even a guest a few months ago and Adam didn't know if they were a man or a woman until they came in the door. EDIT: Wow, it's sad to hear about Drew but I'm glad he's ok.

I had to skip the section with Siri. It just seemed awkward and she seemed to dominate the podcast once she got on yet had nothing interesting to say. Also while I'm not hating on Adam Carolla like some here, it seems like he's one week of lovely podcasts away from me unsubscribing. Then he brings on someone like a Jo Koy or a Mick Foley and I hang on just a little while longer...

I thought Siri was kind of interesting. Not as interesting as Mick and it felt a bit out of place, but not a bad guest. The relationship between the two seems incredibly odd though and Mick comes across a bit creepy. And I did laugh at the Randy West jokes. Either way, it was a good episode. Although I'm not sure why Adam shoehorned Baldywood in there, even Bryan was reluctant to do it. The DDP episode had potential but Adam let the interview turn too much into an infomercial. It was one of Alison's best though. Bringing up Napolean Dynamite and then setting up the "Dude" off with DDP and Dawson. I wish they'd just drop the newsgirl stuff and let her do her own segment or something on the show. She can still bring up news during the show if things slow down. She's starting to grow on me and I think she's funny but in a bad position.

You're totally right, and you can even hear her getting frustrated when she wants to talk about news and Adam keeps interrupting for a lame joke or to retell an old story and she only gets to bring up one or two news pieces. The news is my favourite segment only because of Alison's sense of humour and the fact that someone other than Adam introducing topics is often the only source of new material the show gets. Bryan is trying to shoehorn himself into the show as a cohost it seems but really that should be Allison's spot. I really wish Adam would step back a bit and let her do more.

That's partly Adam's fault for not integrating her into the show better. He should defer to her at times for topics, should let her be more vocal in the interviews. They should drop the news and Adam should at the 20 minute mark or so ask her what the topics of the day are. No segment, just natural. It also helps when Adam has someone else guiding the conversation (like on Loveline) so that we don't have to hear about the goalposts another 300 times. Bryan's emergence as the co-host does make it tough on Alison, as well as any guests. The recent Jo Koy episode is an example of that as Bryan talked more than Jo Koy did. It's not good when the sound guy talks more than your funny guest. In a weird way, Adam needs a producer. Someone like Stern understands this stuff much better and how to integrate people in. He would never have a guest on and then have Gary talk for half the segment. But Adam doesn't and it feels like they need someone who can control the show and give it guidance. It won't change because he runs the ship. But the show has so much potential if it could drop the bad segments like Adam watching himself race or Bryan giving a terrible movie review while an interesting guest sits in silence.

Out of all of the jokes Adam repeats constantly the "Oprah on the cover of her magazine" one is now the one that annoys me the most. Holy poo poo we get it, it's not funny, stop bringing it up.

I saw his breakout gig thing at a comedy festival thing put on by the local radio station and he tore it up next to some heavy hitters. Thing is, anytime anyone brings him up Carolla always has to pipe in about how it's great that Brad Williams isn't a schticky comedian that just talks about whatever their "thing" is. He is EXACTLY this type of comedian. I don't get it. Pretty much all his jokes somehow relate to being short, being a little person, little person sex or some related thing. I had this complaint about Brad Williams before he was ever on the Carolla podcast so when Adam mentioned that I was annoyed as poo poo.

The Greg Proops show was good too. I love Greg, someone earlier mentioned how it's always the 1980s in Carolla's mind, Greg gleefully pointed that out about Carolla's choice of examples for mall stores.

I never noticed that Oprah was on the cover of every single one of her magazines until I heard him point that out, and now it bothers me every time I see one in a store. He's run it into the ground, but it really is a tremendous blowhardy thing to do. The best are the ones where she has more than one picture of herself, like Oprah with younger Oprah, Oprah with thinner/fatter Oprah, multiple Oprahs wearing different colors. It's insane, it's like a parody but without a trace of irony. If you were doing this as a sketch, someone would tell you to tone it down a little, it's too ridiculous
