Edit: Ironic. Many episodes involve Adam talking about the differences between cultures, religions, etc. Jews are assumed to be well-off financially with very tight-knit families so yeah...he's being very ironic when he guesses "Jew" wrongly for the 400th time

I've never heard him do that before. So is he mocking the typical white trash caller by sarcastically suggesting they're Jewish?

get some DAG in there! He can be annoying, but some priceless episodes with him on there.

And yes, not only was it a great comic pairing overall, but plenty of Dr. Drew's expertise rubbed off on Adam. They could both recognize an abuse victim in no time flat by the end of Adam's run.
I can thank this show for so much good advice and perspective on matters sexual and relational.

I know everyone else in this thread knows to watch out for "baby voice," too.

Also:
"So where's dad?"
"Huh?"
"Where is your dad."
"Uhmm.... like..."
"Your father, where is he."
"Oh, he hasn't lived with us since I was eight, Mom's new boyfriend lives with us now."

Yes! That was amazing. And I loved the game they played in which they'd try to guess the caller's past based on their present. It was shocking how accurate they usually were. And when somebody made a really good guess, the other one would reward him. One of my favorite exchanges:

Drew: Did you take tapdancing classes when you were 3?
Caller: Yes.
Adam: That's it, I'm giving Drew a dollar.
