Show Summary
Adam welcomes DAG back to the show, and says that he wants a pay scale that incorporates talent. DAG talks about his work in Porgy and Bess, and how crazy his schedule has been as of late. The guys then listen to an upcoming parody track from DAG, and get David Wild on the phone to talk about the Grammys. Later, the guys take a call from a flustered fan with a simple request.
In the second half of the show, Alison starts the news with more facts about the Grammys. She also gives updates on Whitney Houston’s passing, and the guys talk about the best way to avoid a panic attack. Other news stories involve Sandusky, unhealthy Valentine’s Day candies, and the outrage over Chris Brown’s Grammy performance. As the show wraps up, the guys read through texts from people who don’t know who Paul McCartney is.

Good times! Love DAG!!!
What the fuck is DAG talking about?
Ask his black brothers!!!!
DAG should be in jail for the raping of my eardrums
Adele has a fatter head than she has a fat tushy. I think she is a little overweight. But in 20 years her butt is going to knock Aretha’s off the stage.
I love when the DAG is on the show he always makes me crack up
First, learn English, and second , get some taste
Thank you so much for this podcast. He’s so funny for a black man. This podcast makes up for the Kevin Smith podcast.
Haha, love the photo. That is why we love Dag
does the link to alison’s podcast work for anyone?
not me either but I think mine is company restricted because I can’t Ace on the House either…
Ben S.
diahrea mouth today May, sheesh!
sometimes I write faster than my brain works, what I meant was that my coworkers and I had company restrictions put on our computers. Therefore, I can still get the Main Show and the Car Cast but I can’t get any new shows and I’m afraid to say anything to I.T. cause that little nerd my rat me out. Come to think of it, he reminds of that little nerd Matt “the post punisher”D’Andria
Not me. I was hoping to listen to her show in place of this DAG garbage.
DAG!!!
DAG is the black Andy Dick. Why do you let him hijack your show? Brutal.
Love DAG!!!
DAG is the best.
YES!! finally DAG is back!
Yea..I wish that he goes away and stays away
WOW DAG is a kind of a hot mess. I am actually worn out after listening to the first 70 minutes of the show. I am really looking forward to the news.
You know you love a guest when you have a laugh just at the photo they took for the podcast. Great times.
Agree
Last time I listen when DAG is a guest. Not funny. Shits on everything and makes no one laugh, besides Alison uncomfortably.
Speak for yourself. DAG is hilarious and always makes me laugh.
Wow, I need to make myself a few million so i can find out where this country is going, because i have no f’in clue. I thought knowledge and education led to money and success, but after listening to Adam it’s apparent that the inverse is true; money and success lead to knowledge, wisdom, erudition etc. fascinating!
marky mark pull up your pants for a second and listen!
Knowledge and education does not ensure you anything! Hard work and a good attitude count most! Why am I bothering, I’ve got work to do, never mind, your right dumb dumb, go occupy a street!
you’re an idiot if you think getting an education ensures success. a degree doesn’t mean anything anymore. get a job and get good at it, build a career. if your job requires an education then get that and be prepared to work your ass off like everyone else, otherwise go look at your participation trophies hanging on the old ‘fridge
I’d be interested to hear the level of success you’ve achieved, dick. ‘Cause if you think the majority of successful people got there through working hard (remember, I said MAJORITY) you’re a bigger wanker than you already sound like.
Please tell me that DAG has pants on in this photo.
Ugh…DAG is unbearable…what part is funny? The part where constantly interrupts or the part where he can’t complete more than 5 words without jumping to a different topic? “Next story…NEXT!!”
Oh goodness, DAG was too obnoxious today. He wouldn’t let Adam talk at all. And, I hated the cussing during the live reads. DAG should know that’s a no-no.
“I lost my lover and I lost my best friend” – Valentines Classic!
“My professional life is at a nine and my personal life is at a two.” – Booey Math
HA! Listened to that this morning. A definite classic.

One long unfunny sentence peppered with screams and excruciating improv. Off to the archives I go.
DAG!! I’m so excited to listen to this one.
GET IT ON!!!!!!!! BEST GUEST OF ALL TIME!!!!!
DAG!
great, guest as always. the Jody chicken thing was hilarious
hilarious podcast. DAG is the greatest. please hire him on as a permanent co-host, I would pay top dollar for that.
Dag was annoying this episode . He tries too hard to be funny
He is always annoying……he is a worthless black man!!
I work in an office and I only wish that David could speak in some normal tone. He’s up and down and all over the place and I’m turning the volume up and down and eventually after the boss gives me the stink eye I just turn it down and miss out on the funny… sigh!
earphones?
Get some headphones bitch
DAG—NOT funny. Moments of funny but mostly just INCREDIBLY f-ing annoying! His problem is he doesn’t know when to shut up.
DAG IS THE BEST GUEST!!! I LOVE HIS PODCASTS WITH ADAM!
DAG! best podcast guest ever. Only February but we have the best podcast of the year nominee.
Over the top DAG! STFU!
just signed up for go daddy after hearing that read
DAG’s act is beat to death
Not sure how people love DAG. He’s obviously talented, but has no governor and won’t shut the fuck up. It’s a lot funnier when you mix the tone up — ‘whacky’ all the time is not funny it’s just annoying.
3 minutes into the show and it’s my favorite…DAG I love you. I needed a laugh today. xoxo
I can’t believe Adam and/or Bryan didn’t jump on the setup Alison gave him!
“Should I just expect to be on the receiving end of something”
Come on guys, at a minimum I would have thought Bald Bryan would have played the drop that says “I was recently on the receiving end of an aggressive rectal exam”
DAG, OMG, his reading of energy drink ingredients had me laughing so hard I was crying and clutching the wall for support. LMAO!!! He is totally crazy but so funny!
DAG Always brings it. Great show!!
Fucking DAG. I couldn’t breathe when he was swearing over the GoDaddy live read. Literally wiping away the tears.
“Love Has No Pride” by Bonnie Raitt can make me cry like a little girl with a skinned knee. If you watched the HBO 25 year Rock and Roll Celebration, Bonnie did this song with Crosby, Stills and Nash and I had goose bumps on my arms, worth a listen… (LOL ACE MAN – Nissan truck with the rear tailgate sticker modified to SS, stolen Mercedes hubcaps, In N Out Urge bumper sticker, Vaurnet Glasses w/Croakies, Vans sneakers, Gordon & Smith or Mr. Zoggs T-shirt. Loved/Hated me some 80’s)
The live read for GoDaddy with the DAG was awesome!
Levonorgestrel!
Really Adam. A little DAG is probably too much.
Not a big fan of episodes with DAG. This one was especially bad.
Wow. After those songs, I can see it didn’t take fifty years for you to become a chick.
Zip it Tip,
Certain songs, especially ones you hear after having your heart broke have an effect on you… just saying…
god damnit, DAG would probably be 1000x more successful if he just shut the fuck up every now and then.
its so fucking difficult to listen to him talk over everyone constantly.
Wow, I’m 25 minutes in and laughing my ASS off. Love me some DAG
DAVEY G!
DAG isn’t as funny as he thinks he is.
It would be cool to have Dave Grohl (I googled his name for spell check) on the show. “Learning to Walk Again” is fairly new and I think it’s a really good song that goes back to the style of their first album. I love the “Michael Douglas – Falling Down” video too… I think I should “stop talking for a while”…
LOVE LOVE LOVE DAG!! I could listen to them for hours.
You are a very sick person……seek professional help asap!!!
Can we never ever hear “Heartbreaker” again on this podcast? That song was ass the first time around. I don’t want to run the risk of it getting popular again.
You two keep me laughing out loud long enough to make my coworkers wonder if they need to call the padded wagon! Keep it up guys, you make the day bearable.
You missed the best Lady Gaga moment. When the Beach Boys were on stage, the camera comes back on her and she clearly had no clue who she was watching. Fell out of my chair.
Sweet! I love it when DAG is on. I hope he interrupts Adam and screams a lot on this podcast. I love it when it does that. Also, when he pretends to sing. Or when he talks really low for a few sentences and then shouts. Oh, boy, it’s so unpredictable and hilarious when he does that. But I doubt he’ll do it this time.
too funny Brad
sarcasm! a way to pretend to make a point without actually saying anything! ahh isn’t it a useful tool for stupid people on the internet?
I listen to the show everyday, have since the beginning. Can we please limit the amount of DAG on the show. He talks WAAAAYY to much and usually takes over the show, to the detriment of the episode. There is no Alison, no Brian, and even wau less Adam when he’s on. His really funny but it’s only good for like 30 minutes before I wish he would just shut the fuck up.
That tampon joke totally failed the lasagna test…
ACEMAN!!!! i Can finally agree with you about the Linda Ronstadt song “Long long Time”
I cried and pissed myself to that song many many times!!!!!
Amazing how polarizing DAG can be. I think he’s the only guest who’ll fight Adam to be heard. I’m guessing some of those who hate DAG love how Ace steamrollers over other guests.
That was the worst ACE Podcast ever — and the first time I ever skipped over parts of it. DAG whispering…ick, couldn’t take it! DAG is funny in limited doses, but this was, as someone else posted, an “ear raping.” Adam is also starting to grate…his arrogance is getting out of control. I’m a huge fan, but this was just awful.
I really enjoyed the DAG show today,,,I think I will go chew on tin foil now. Brutal. How does that guy not get his ass kicked on a daily basis.
DAG is BRILLIANT
Best guest EVER. I laughed my ass off the entire episode (well, until DAG left)
Theres 2 DAGs. A great one and an annoying one. Today we got the annoying one.
If I wanted to listen to black people eat potato chips I would take the Metro blue line to work.
Usually listening to DAG and his snoring sound effects is a grind, but this time I finally got what the DAG thing is about. He was on. (not just straining to be on)
DAG is the Best!!! always. I love reading comments from all the DAG haters when thay are shocked or annoyed by his behaviour. That’s just the way he plays with Adam.
Be my valentine DAG!!!
I’m only 7 minutes in and I’ve laughed harder than I have during the last two weeks of podcasts! Love that DAG!
DAG always bring out the best in Adam!
I fear for the future of this country. Can someone prove a correlation between the people who can’t get enough DAG and the people who’ve been on aderol for more than 15 years? WOOO! YELLING! How funny and certainly not a one-trick pony. Oh, the second trick: somehow turning snoring into a misogynistic cuss-out.
the man above me cannot tell drops from live-speak.
also, sarcasm is lazy writing. fucktard.
Talk to me about laziness when you learn to use the shift key.
Aderol? Aderol! I will WOOP yo ass
I don’t even bother listening when DAG is on any more. Incoherency interrupted by an annoying ass scream every 45secs is just painful. And why the fuck is this guy seemingly on every other week!!!
I want to know if Adam is getting anything for the wifey for Valentines.
this was the FUNNIEST episode I’ve hear in forever! LOVE DAG HAHA!
Awesome show! DAG is cant-miss auido.
Normally not a DAG fan, but his cussing all over the live read was pretty funny.
Love DAG. I miss music mondays; would really like to see it make a comeback on a semi regular basis.
Sorry, had to stop listening after DAG’s tampon line. Can’t stomach this guy for more than 5 minutes but his clips used on the ACE awards show were great! Oh well there is always tomorrow’s show.
grow some balls
Ace was wondering why certain people like DAG dont make more money and arent as famous as he thinks they should be? He should just listen to his podcast for 5 minutes (if he could last that long) Its just forced and not original. If DAG toned it down just a little and didnt interupt over and over and over and over and over and over he could be at Richard Pryor level……….its sad to listen to a guy that talented shit on his own career.
Holy shit DAG is annoying as fuck… that was unbearable.. and all you fucking idiots think that his funny ?, what the fuck is wrong with you morons, all he does is scream and say stupid unfunny shit… come on,, hate it when this douchebag is on the show….next story NEXT…
the fact that you have to degrate the majority and the talent with baseless insults show you are just frustrated that you don’t get him. it’s i bet you cried when you lost your peewee games too
No Swearing for GoDaddy??? WTF do they care? Half naked chicks in their commercials and more online.. HAHA
DAG needs to know when to keep his mouth shut, I’m guessing that at some point Adam really wanted to shout “STFU DAG!”
BUT, I have never laughed this hard listening to a Carolla Podcast, ever, and I’ve listen to almost all the shows.
We know you do it for the Fans Adam and we really appreciate it.
No More DAG! No More DAG!
Love Dag had me in tears 3 times be guest of all time
Best guest…damn laptop
DAG is a uniquely talented individual, K. Smith is a has been lying hack. Who new you would completely outshine him so he stabbed you in the back,
Love DAG. Anyone have the link for the texting hot bitches
holy fuck thats funny. LOVE dag. Hysterical how he calls alison theresa, altho i am alisons biggst fan. The role playing improv made me laugh so loud my coworkers thought i was sick.
Dude, could someone please put a mic on DAG? It is impossible to hear him half the time, usually when he is trying to tell a joke, which is really annoying.
Once worked with a DAG type personality, quit that job the same week.
fucking halarious! I got bit in the lip by a dog this morning….got stitches in my lip and pulled one out ’cause i was laughing so hard during Adams live (ad) read for go daddy and amazon. (Fuck. shit. bitch)
Holy shit that was pricless.
I don’t spell well….
DAG is my least favorite guest ever why oh why is he on so often?!
DAG is annoying
Honestly, what is wrong with him? For the love of all things sane – PLEASE calm the hell down.
*On the bright side it’s quite hilarious there is someone who can absolutely trample and ride roughshot all over Adam Carolla’s head. Something you might think is impossible. Yet, there it is!
“Go Daddy… GO FUCK YOURSELF”
DAG needs to be a guest once a week.
I don’t care what anyone else says DAG may be a hot mess, but he is hi-fucking-larious! I had to take out my earbuds during the godaddy.com live read and compose myself.
Don’t like DAG, and this was my last attempt to like him. I just don’t see what The Aceman sees.
You can say that again!!! The Aceman lost his mind and never had any taste anyway!
You lost me at: “Suck the blood out of her used tampons…”
Same here.
godaddy spot made me poop my pants. that was the funniest thing i’ve hears in so long. love DAG
DAG was in peak comedic form. Hilarious as always.
You idiots whining about DAG sound like newbies. He is one of Adam’s best friends, and goes back 13 or 14 years to Loveline. He is ALWAYS like this. Energetic, wild and funny. He ALWAYS brings it. MANY Loveline shows. MANY appearances on the old radio show.
Why do you think Adam ALWAYS brings him back. DAG is in the group of top guys Adam likes to work with: Jimmy Kimmel, Joel McHale, Doug Benson, DAG, Dana Gould, Larry Miller. Probably others I can’t think of right now.
Why did the Chocolate News go off the air? That show was hilarious.
Wow the show really came to a screeching halt after DAG left. The horrible Linda Ronstadt song? What a way to bring everyone down.
This episode gave me a headache, didn’t finish it.
Classic show!! Great work!! Love DAG going on a swearfest during Adam’s live reads! Too funny!
I got whiplash going from DAG to 80′s breakup songs!!
Horrible Horrible Horrible podcast!!!!
Dag, go back to Harlem where you belong…..you annoying jig!!
‘Tony’ go back to the trailer park please. You don’t belong here. Thank you.
Go away, KKK dude.
don’t say full blown panic attack if drew could still walk
Panic attacks are like fishing. The more time that passes the bigger they get.
really cant believe people dont like dag or dont think hes funny. He even cracks up adam the whole time. I think dag is the black adam. Cant shut up. Love them Both!
DAG used to be my favorite guest, but this one was hard to get through. I wish he’d tone it down a little. It seems too desperate.
Serious question: Is DAG retarded?
DAG is officially the funniest dude on the planet. i was losing my shit during the live read, hahaha.
Can u post a link for Official DAG Facebook. Alot of fake ones!!!!!!!!!!
listening to DAG on the show feels like i’m lying at the bottom of a flight of concrete stairs while someone is dumping large boxes of metal pots and pans down the stairs at me. he is just NOISE.
My goodness. I can’t believe the out lash regarding DAG. By the way, DAG is from the Detroit area, and while he is not to everyone’s taste, he is very funny and talented
…opinions are like…
finish that one for me ACE!
DAG is hilarious
DAG with his perrinial humor returns again! One of the best Ace episodes ever!!!
DAG is horrible. All he does is scream, making the show almost impossible to listen to without being annoyed. He’s even worse than Alana Ubach.
If you’re going to have him on in the future, have Dawson run his mic though a really strong noise gate & compressor, and drop his level down a few dB.
DAG is BACK! I love this mofo!
Spank du Mois: KATE UPTON
DAG is just horrible! NOT funny!!!!
I really despise all the people on here bashing DAG. This podcast was fantastic and DAG is GREAT! Love me some Daggeroonie. If you have trouble listening to him, then your mind doesn’t work fast enough to appreciate his stream-of-consciousness genius. DAG is the man.
How many times a day (or episode) does Adam say “first off?”
That guy really needs an editor.
So.. you say you can get free tickets for any one of your stand-up shows… even IF they’re sold out? I know of someone who could use one (or two) in Seattle
) you know for charity… ’cause I’m poor. Love the podcast!!!!!!!!
The DAG episodes are so hard to finish. It’s the only one of Adam’s episodes that are just pure noise. Couldn’t wait for the news.
Can’t decide: DAG acts like a three year old who ate way too much sugar or an idiot on crack. Hard to tell the difference.
I got as far as the David Wild interview (which i was very interested in hearing) and DAG is rudely interupting him with his stupid noises. I absolutely hate DAG. So obnoxious and loud. The guy is not funny at all, he’s extremely annoying. This is the 2nd time I’ve stopped listening to a podcast DAG was on. Next time I see DAG’s a guest, I won’t even bother listening.
It was a Lamborghini that Chris Brown was driving when he beat the shit out of Rihanna that was on loan from Platinum Motorsport. I’m not positive, but I think it was a Murcielago.
PLEASE stop having DAG on the show. He is not at all funny and he does not know when to shut up.
Did DAG say “you are tri-state downriver slap-boxing champion”?
That is f’n classic.
Best live reads ever! GoDaddy and Amazon need to pay DAG.
GREAT POD!
I laughed til I cried with ‘DaG…he’s amazing. What a wild ride he must be to interview. Keep up the good work Adam. Hope to see you in St Louis at the Pagaent!!!
Adam was totally right about the Beach Boys on the Grammys. That looked like a sad karaoke event at a care home. Weird and kind of creepy, like the animatronic band at Chuck E Cheese.
DAG is the worst guest, can’t stand listening to him. I’m not going to bother listening to episodes when is the guest anymore, he’s an asshole. Love the podcast, listen to every episode, but I absolutely hate when DAG is on. All he does is interrupt, and he’s not funny. Lose this losers phone number.
That’s the first Adam podcast I have ever turned off before finishing.
Amazing show. This or the Dana Gould episode…? Tough choice for best show so far.
Love when DAGs on. I tweeted at him and adam about the godaddy thing because it was so funny i couldnt even listen to it at work. I was laughing way too hard, dag direct messaged me it kinda looked like i worked at godaddy. Felt like I really made it in hollywood finally
Does anyone else think it is funny that Go Daddy asked for “no cursing” during the live read? Their commercials during prime time sporting events all allude to Danica Patrick being naked on their website. Applaud DAG for taking a giant shit on the live read. Bravo.
I honestly felt like DAG was on some type of drug after this podcast. There I said it. The only thing that makes me doubt it is he did not slur his words and he was genuinely funny, more than annoying, but way too annoying this episode.
The DAG show is awful. I made it 10 minutes in and punted on this piece of shit podcast. I’ve enjoyed all of the others, but this one needs to be buried for good.
DAG has become my absolute favorite guest. He plays so well off of everyone and his energy and comedic slant is just brilliant.
DAG would get a few good ones off here and there but then he would beat a joke to death. He doesn’t know when to stop. He did that thing where he was naming Beatles songs and the first 2 were funny and fitting but then he tried to squeeze in more and if fell flat–ruined the joke. He really needs to know when to shut up.
Also, stop that fucking screaming routine. How is that funny?
I guess I don’t understand why Adam panders to him. It reminds me of Jimmy Kimmel and how he basically sucks Don Rickles’ cock. Don Rickles–NOT funny. Maybe he was back in the day but he isn’t funny now.
Best guest ever! I fucking love DAG!
David Alan G is fuckin annoying!!!!! loud mouth always screaming takin over the whole show, always being “over the top guy”, as Adam always says “SHUT THE FUCK UP”! Adam im not listening to anymore shows with D.A.G.
annoyed!
What’s the DAG drop? “Ish-rar-dara” ?? It’s when the girl calls to request his Loveline bit.
I crack up just hearing it…what’s he saying?
Holy shit I think I almost gave myself an aneurism during that GoDaddy read..
Phenomenal podcast. I should not have been driving. I was laughing so hard tears were streaming down my face and I damn near left the road. Awesome stuff!! Thanks so much for the free entertainment, guys. Love it.
I love Adam’s podcast… except for when DAG is on. He’s loud, obnoxious, and completely unfunny. I have a hard time finish the podcast when he’s on. He comes across as an attention-starved idiot and he tries too hard to be funny. He takes over the show with his extremely loud antics. He basically needs to learn how to take it down a notch and shut the fuck up. Oh, and his “I’m snoring” bit is beyond old and highly annoying.
Personally, I don’t get the comedic genius of DAG. But, some people seem to like him. Different strokes. Please bring back the representative from Ohio. That guy is hilarious. “Is a dollar bill sad, Adam?” One of my all time favorite lines.
One of the funniest episodes yet. DAG can run with whatever he’s offered and make it work. I’m sure all the people in traffic around me were wondering why the 40 year old dude alone in the Scion was laughing hysterically.
Dag is really funny but only for 5 minutes at a time. I skipped listening to the last couple of DAG shows because I can only take so much of him. I wonder if he realizes that no one can hear him when he whispers because we’ve turned down the volume because of his LOUD yelling and noises. I guess keep him coming back every now and again because some love DAG but also take a look at your download numbers because I bet they take a nice dip every time he’s on the show.
Despite my complaints, let it be known that I love The Adam Carolla Show and you can’t beat the price! Keep em coming!
Can someone please tell DAG that alternately whispering and yelling makes for a lousy Podcast.
Finally listened to this episode, as the DAG eps always take a certain amount of energy to withstand. Reading over the comments, he is obviously a very polarizing guest. He’s funny in spurts, and I enjoyed him on Lynette’s podcast as he was slightly more subdued. Perhaps slip him a xanax next time he comes on the show.
