Can anyone summarize what's happened with Giovanni over the past year? That's when I stopped listening to Get It On and at the time he seemd teetering on the edge of homelessness and/or suicide. Now he's an official show employee? Am I getting that wrong?

Why do people have a problem with what a show advertises? Its not like you actually have to buy the stuff they advertise. Lets face it, besides Amazon who are the big money advertisers for podcasts? Mangrate? Ashley Madison? Buttwipes? In the podcast biz you probably take whatever you can get for advertising money.

If you had asked me 5 or 10 years ago if the person from Loveline whose show I look forward to most each week, it would definitely not have been Anderson the drunk/stoned/methed out rear end in a top hat playing drops. I like the AD and The Film Vault, where Bryan's annoying retardedness shines, a lot more than The Adam and Drew Show at this point. JB50 posted:Gotta put air in the pirate ships sails right? Adam should shill whatever is available because he's already pretty sleazy and if you're looking to him for any sort of purchasing advice you're already hosed. Drew on the other hand, should probably not shill for poo poo that is complete hooey like psychics. Next he's going to pull a Dr Oz and start pushing lovely overpriced vitamins and magic alkaline water. It's kinda his responsibility as a practicing physician (with TV shows, Loveline, etc) to not stand behind a product that is reprehensible.

Drew has already gotten heat over deals he has made with pharma companies in the past. He was a paid spokesperson, but didn't give that disclaimer when talking about their products. I don't care what they advertise. Real radio personalities do this crap all the time. "Oh, I just love my Comcast Internet, they are the best! Call for a special offer." "Sprint has amazing deals and plans, and they have the best service in the area in my opinion!" Just the cost of doing business. Adam seems pretty savvy. On Ace on the House, he was talking about this 1920s fireplace he got for his new house, and how the mantle was missing. He recreated the mantle with wood and had a scenic painter come in and make it look exactly like the existing tile. I guess I don't see the sleazy part you are talking about. He sounds like any other paid spokesperson on any other station or podcast. In fact, I look forward to the ads in a way, because Adam's transitions are pretty hilarious at times. He'll be talking about Ray shoving poop in his ear, and then start talking about Stamps.com without missing a beat. It always cracks me up how Drew hams up the Stamps.com ads.

But he's a personality so it's fine, but I still look at Drew as a doctor first which is honestly more my personal problem. I should understand that he's a TV/radio guy first now. I've known too many doctors that get pulled into pushing bullshit for a buck and it makes me very upset. One thing we can all agree on is that the best podcast ads ever were from Norm MacDonald's short lived podcast. He made me laugh at Nick Swardson which should qualify him for some sort of award.

Ok Bryan, one more time: after Adam says "Allsion Rosen on news" he's going to say "and Bald Bryan on sound effects." If you're going to play one of your dumbfuck drops, Have The loving Thing Cued Up. There's no reason the show should have to grind to a screeching halt 20 seconds in every time as you fiddle with some buttons. And stop loving with the news jungle. Nobody thinks that's funny

His heavy involvement in the show now means he's poo poo at drops. I was never a huge drops fan since it's part of that old morning zoo style of radio. But he genuinely used to have some funny ones when that was his job. Now he can't even get the basics of the show down and I can't remember the last time he had a funny drop. Half the time Adam has to pause and give him direction to play a drop.

Yeah, I was a little disappointed when Adam started slinging the borro.com crap. Seems like something he'd be against. I'm fine with dick pills and term life insurance. I don't put Drew in the same realm as someone like Dr. Oz or Dr. Phil yet. I think he'd rather not have to do the live reads of horrible ads, but I think he genuinely enjoys having a platform like the Dr. Drew Show. I think both he and Adam dispense sound advice most of the time.

Speaking of drops, what's the origin of the Allison drop about Daniel? It sounds like she's saying "My feel good Daniel" while holding her tongue. I googled it, and it just says she was saying "My fiance Daniel". Why did it come out sounding that way? edit: \/\/ Thanks for the answer. \/\/ Grant DaNasty fucked around with this message at 05:28 on Dec 11, 2013 |

It makes me sad none of you guys talk about Ray and Lorenzo. I think it is my favorite podcast period. Also, Adam's landlord rant on Ace on the House made me loving die laughing, pound the desk and scream PREACH all at the same time. It was my favorite rant he has ripped off in a long time. That is why I still listen to that show. One of those every 3 weeks makes it all worthwhile.

If you have the choice, watch the video podcast with Super Dave instead of just listening to the audio version. You'll miss out on the looks Dave gives Norm and the other guy (who used to jerk off punks under the Queensborough bridge for 15 bucks a man) which are amazing.

They pick the score of every game for the week, but it is like the news back when the Stern show was awesome, ie they say "Ravens vs Eagles, the line is Ravens by 6" and sometimes they discuss the game/line and sometimes it goes off the rails. I love it myself, but I love the NFL. Lorenzo Neal is an awesome guest two. Two of my favorite Ace on the House episodes have had him. He is where I am working my way up to, a multi property landlord and house flipper, and he is down to Earth and a funny dude. I wish he would be on the house show more often. The other thing I like about Ace on the House is when they talk about the importance of doing poo poo yourself, which I strongly believe in. I can't remember his name, but they had the Fine Woodworking editor come in and they talked about taking shop class out of school and how no one cares. It is bullshit. I care. I still have a cedar mug I made in woodworking class and I am proud of that drat thing to this day. I have it on my desk and people ask what it is and I say, with pride, "I made this myself by hand in 10th grade" and they always saw "that is awesome." I could type 1,000 words about this, but when Ace is right he is right, and he is absolutely right about this.

Youtube is really great for stuff. There is a video on there for practically every single home improvement task you can think of. I just weatherized all my windows for the winter and the videos on there were invaluable. It's not too late! Is there an app that has all the shows from the network on it? I have an Android phone and am trying to get Adam & Drew in the car but can't find it without going through the site. Adam's new app is nice, but it only has his main show on it.

I was listening to ARIYNBF: Ray Oldhafer last night, and Alison and Ray got into a very interesting discussion about Adam's stage presence on the podcast and at live shows. They both agreed that Adam felt like he has an obligation to the fans to fill the entire stage, and that can lead to him not letting guests talk. If Adam senses a hesitation or the guest doesn't just jump in at the level he is at, there won't be room for the guest. Adam isn't really looking for an exchange with the guest like a traditional interview, but more of the back and forth of sketch comedy or improv. I've heard Adam scold Drew for not speaking up as much at live shows, and it sounds like Adam doesn't consciously know he is doing this. His perception is that the other person is just bad. Probably why Adam has DAG and Jo Koy on so much, because they will jump in and take their own space. Ray and Alison agreed that Adam loved sharing the spotlight, but to share the space, he has got to know you are ready to roll. It was a really interesting look at why Adam sometimes crowds out really great guests. Even if you don't listen to Alison's show, this is really worth a listen.

Does anyone else struggle with the decision whether to keep listening to Adam? I've been listening to his main show and Adam & Drew Show for a long while now, and most of the time I enjoy it. It's great that I have a daily podcast to listen to at work, and there are several times where he's made me laughed out loud. But he keeps saying poo poo and that infuriates me to no end. "You see, some bullying is good. Fat kids need to be made fun of so they'll have incentive to lose weight." "Poor people don't deserve healthcare." "Edward Snowden is a traitor. If you're not a terrorist you have nothing to worry about if the government spies on you." And then today on Adam & Drew he even offended Dr. Drew by saying "Half the people in this city came here on loving donkey from Tijuana and they don't even read. Half the people in this town are so loving dumb." I keep coming back because most of the time I find him funny, but it just keeps getting closer to that point where I'm going to have to unsubscribe.
