Their bit is that it was just the sniffles and the vast majority that died had co-morbitities so "Maybe if they didn't want to die they should have eaten less cake"

I think he's just doing the new right-wing thing where they pretend very few people died and we should have never closed anything down (even though barely anything shut down).

He’s also doing the right-wing thing where he’s all but completely irrelevant and blames it on “cancel culture”.

imho the Bad cancel culture they (never) refer to is dumb corporate surveillance poo poo where the punishment doesn't fit the & crime to a regular person, like that chick who got shitcanned for posting a kanye lyric with an n-bomb in it 10 years ago when she was a teenager, or that taxi cab driver who was in a photo with a 👌 hand gesture long before it became a 4chan meme/nazi thing and also lost his job.

when you're a prolific millionaire/public figure who says black people are animals who should be loaded into a catapult and launched into a brick wall and you get mean tweets about it for a few days and zero livelihood is affected, that's the kind of (big air quotes here) """"cancel culture"""" reserved only for white millionaires to bitch about and get 10000000 views + gofundmes for

edit: honestly it's arguable that people like adam carolla are overwhelmingly the benefactors of exploiting """"cancel culture""""-type offenses over time since there is a rife, lucrative market in exploiting that poo poo

He died from it and his family put up a Gofundme to collect the $5000 for the funeral because his literal millionaire best friend Adam couldn't be bothered. IIRC he didn't even donate to it, though Bald Bryan and Allison did.

Didn't listen but apparently TJ Miller was on Adam Carolla claiming the reason he quit the show Silicon Valley is because it was too political. I don't know if this was the same interview or another recent one but he also claims the reason he won't be in Deadpool 3 is because Ryan Reynolds hates him. I assume he didn't bring up that he was accused of a horrific sexual assault, attacked an Uber driver, called in a fake bomb threat, and was fired from Silicon Valley for being an absolute terror behind the scenes.

Yup it was podcasting before podcasting. They started with just a few highlights and eventually uploaded the show. Man I do miss the Adam/Bryan/Teresa dynamic. Being rich hosed with him

I been wantin to see a honkey dance.
I've been listening to some of the earlier Lovelines recently and it's definitely been a concern of mine that I'm going to turn out like Adam, considering how much of my own personality I hear in him from those shows. Granted I'm in no danger of becoming rich anytime soon, so maybe I'm safe.

Yeah. Tried watching a few minutes of Adam/Jimmy Man Show, would not recommend. Pure strain early 2000s in a bad way.

Holy cow how did he not do serious time for getting super drunk and calling in fake bomb threats on transit to try to hurt a woman? I mean I know the answer is probably half a mil lawyer costs but still. Probably could have had comfy voice acting career if he wasn’t doing his best to become unemployable.

As edgy and obnoxious and oblivious as I was 20 or so years ago, I still managed to be completely gob smacked by how creepy that show was back then.

I mean, I still watched it all the time. I watched all the Comedy Central trash like it was my job.

Oh yeah Kimmel has always seemed less problematic than Carolla but Adam wasn’t the one doing blackface in a reoccurring segment.

That’s an interesting thing, not to defend Carolla but other shows that are more socially responsible like Doughboys will sometimes do ads for sports gambling apps which are not really a force for good? Maybe casinos pay a lot more than manscape?

I mean sports betting is definitely bad overall I guess but I imagine all these guys (Adam, the doughboys) bet on sports sometimes. Check advance places are just naked usury and I never got how they were legal to begin with
