1st Caller Mitchell, he wants to know about Microdosing LSD and Drew jumps in to tell him it will be a catastrophe, he is all in favor of the research but sees it leading to a bad outcome for most people.

Drew says end of life use and chronic depression cases aside this isn’t for most people, he says he’s now seeing the same bullshit he saw in the 1970’s and he comments on brain changes and personality changes.

Drew says he saw the patients in the psychiatric hospitals 10-15yrs later after the LSD boom.

 

Adam is now asking Mitchell what the microdose actually is, he says it’s a 10th-20th of a hit and Adam is now talking about his 27yrs of age and always needing to be altered, Adam is talking about “dabs” and guys trying to get a pot high from wax in highly concentrated pure THC form over the super buds with purple pubes.

Adam say the question isn’t why can’t I get higher, it’s why is this not enough, this super potent drug that can’t get them to then next plateau.

Adam quotes the “no free lunches in nature” line as they talk about brain chemistry and Drew has Adam making some great points about boosting your own career via extra circular training and education/work.

 

Adam talks about discomfort and the minimum wage and uses a hand held over flame as an apt metaphor and he says minimum wage and micro doses of LSD aren’t the answer.

2nd Caller Jonathan he’s calling and references Mitchell’s anecdotal data points and how unscientific they are, he gripes about the lack of biological understanding among adults and Drew blames high school biology.

Drew is now asking Jonathan if he has a better way to express the “No Free Lunches in Nature” point, Adam says it doesn’t work because we’ve now made free lunches and gets to the story of Nick Santora and the ‘Get Hard’ screenplay, that reminded Adam of Nick’s story of a guy who was selling prison preparation to white collar customers/new convicts.

Adam explains how Nick buys rights to interesting stories and now sets up the email reply from Nick where he took the responsibility and refused to get angry about the project’s similarity to his own project.

 

Drew is talking about internalizing and taking the proclamation to the end and actually making the change.

Gary is now reading the reply from Nick Santora to Adam, Adam is breaking down his reply and his word choices.

Jonathan tells them about taking Adam’s advice about a career change and job loss.

Adam says that first we don’t give them victim windbreakers and have them embrace that rhetoric, we encourage them to join the other 100 million people in the real world.

Drew talks about the military and how he has spoken with guys recently who have gained discipline and experience, to almost rise up through the ranks of humanity that they missed while a child or in their bad situation.

Drew calls back the last guests and Drew then interrupts Adam’s internal monologue that he had to overcome, the “Carolla’s Don’t” rule of thumb.

Adam never looked at himself as a victim, he brings up Taylor Swift in the French Riviera and how he always assumed he couldn’t take two weeks off, it doesn’t feel like him, auto insurance once didn’t feel like him too.

 

Adam is talking about how ‘L.A. Law’ used to intimidate him and Drew comments on the “born into that” poison that we have spread among everyone.

Drew talks about Bernie Sanders interview about the economy and now Adam is saying that’s like saying the NFL is bad because one guy hit his wife.

Adam references his daughter’s best friend’s father who he considers a new friend who works on engineering and Disneyland rides.

 

Drew says it’s the invisible hand, it’s how it works and Adam is now mocking the words of Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and uses people born with polio, people born in past eras who died in childhood to make a point about the luck of the draw and how relative it all is.

Adam is talking about “fluid on the lung” and Drew explains the actual biology behind things like pneumonia.
