Does anyone remember the episode where Adam talks about Kenny Rogers's band's song "What Condition my Condition is in"?

Or the one where they talk about cartoon or old 70s show theme songs?

Those were great and I can't remember em. :(

Thank you. That kenny rogers thing is one of the funniest things I've ever heard. : )

The one on 12/8/2004 starts with a great 20 minute long story about a traffic jam Adam and Drew got into the previous night. I think the rest of the episode is good too, but that is one of my favorite Adam stories, and he hasn't repeated it a thousand times since then.

Hey this was a recommended video on youtube: it's the Pennywise Incident episode synced up with security footage of the studio. I haven't watched it yet but I wanted to be the one to post it.

Edit: I'm an hour into the 1st show and every caller has been fairly sharp and with it (by loveline standards.) It's like we got hit with some kinda stupid bomb around 98 or so.

The stupid callers were the best part. Them, and all the little impediments and gripes Adam would have and invoke when he was at his best. In the absence of those things, he hasn't been the same.

I love Loveline Tapes, man. That site is everything I ever wanted for accessing Loveline episodes. Giovanni is bizarrely prideful and overly dedicated, and I guess it's nice that he secured all these unreleased episodes, but I'm not even really interested in the early days of the show because there's hundreds of episodes from 1999 on. I don't mind his contextualizing prefaces, but I also don't need them or listen to them.

Man, I was listening to loveline waaay before Giovanni started bugging Adam on his radio show. Via the internet, I mean, in particular.

Hey unclepenny, dude, sorry about your colleague there. I know how it is when you are forced to be nice to people you work with to make your life easier. Just stay safe and don't meet him in person.

I remember his comedy traffic school company was called Lettuce Amuse You, but that's a bit different because it's part of the story's joke. I loved Adam's attitude with that job too, where he would just give everyone the test for 15 minutes and then leave for the other 6 hours or whatever. Adam was cool.

I don't know about you but when I think driver education I immediately think of salad.

Adam also worked at McDonalds, Bodies in Motion, Always Better Closets, The Flask Liquor Store, the city of LA doing earthquake rehab, carpet cleaning for a guy named Art. Are there any we're missing?

Digging ditches?

I don't think there was ever a time like that that didn't culminate in episde-long rants about the people/actual building of Westwood One.

Also Adam was better when he had producer Anne in his ear telling him to wrap up the rant and get to the calls.

On the original Loveline, this was not ever true.

edit: unless it served as a means to provoke another rant.

I loved Adam back when the callers, the show format, his coworkers, and the studio building itself were seemingly all working against him. That dude was really funny under those conditions. I'll also throw out a plug for one of my favorite stories, where Adam and Drew got stuck in a tragic jam after doing Loveline. I think it was December 14 2004
