  • Adam could not complete his college application.

    So, he did not go to college. His parents could not figure out how to fill out the college application. Adam could not figure it out. He just did not go. It really shows. His main contributions to the world include telling us not to buy lottery tickets nor supply breakfast to Los Angeles school kids.

  • possible Uber answer

    i had an uber driver tell me if they drive onto the airport property to drop you off / pick u up from airport, the airport charges them (Uber) an excise tax. that gets passed to you. at seatac the excise tax is like $35 and the rider pays the full amount.

    one can only imagine the tax at LAX. Happy trails amigo!

  • Talks About Himself

    Really annoying how he brings in guests as a backdrop so that he can talk about himself. I was very interested to know more about Landon Donovan. Unfortunately that didn’t happen. It was just Adam going on and on about Adam. Same thing with Cary Elwes. When there’s nothing else worth listening to, I’ll put on Adam and scrub thru the interview until I get to the news. Narcissism on full display.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Tears for Fears’ Roland Orzabal Teaches Adam Carolla Astrology + RFK Destroys CNN
Q: How much prognostication can you do? Could you predict if a book release or a wedding day is favorable?
I rarely, rarely do prognostication, but I can discuss how astrology looks at timing and planetary alignments; often there are nuanced indications, yet I tend to avoid making concrete predictions about specific events.
Bill Simmons + Michael Des Barres (Carolla Classics)
Q: What's your view on the relationship between promotion and actual content in films or shows?
The guests critique promotional framing, arguing that studios often misrepresent a film's tone, which can disappoint audiences when the actual product diverges from ads.
Bill Simmons + Michael Des Barres (Carolla Classics)
Q: How did you start getting people to read your online work and build an audience?
Simmons describes starting with a basic product, consistent output, and letting word of mouth grow, comparing early online columns to what makes a podcast successful: quality content that people want to share.
Dave Portnoy on the Rise of Anti-semitism and Why He Might Run for Office + California Deploys “Trash Spies”
Q: Do you think about running for political office yourself?
Yes, it crosses my mind, but it's a real consideration with a lot of questions about feasibility and impact; it's not something I'm certain about, given the complexity of public service and the commitment it requires.
Seth MacFarlane + Patton Oswalt (Carolla Classics)
Q: How did the audio book read by Michael Stipe influence the book's reception?
Patton explained that having Michael Stipe read the lyrics added a distinctive layer to the audio edition, shaping how readers perceived the work and its interpretation.
