Show Page

Adam is opening the show with an excited tone in his voice after a week off from the main show, BB has his own requested #TopDrop and has a nice back and forth with A-Rose about it.

Adam is teasing the Hooray For BaldyWood later in the show and what induced a yawn from Mike August, wha, wha, what!?

Adam and Matt are now teasing their odyssey that closed out their east coast trip.

 

Adam is now getting right into it and bringing up Andy Kindler’s latest “State Of The Industry” speech at the 2013 Montreal for Just for Laughs.

Adam is now critiquing an article written about the speech that described Adam in less than ideal terms, Adam is now asking how much of yourself you’re allowed to insert into news reporting.

Adam is now quoting the Hitler and Nazi barbs used against him, Adam is taking it with a flattering grain of salt, much like what he told Andy when he guested on the show last August and previously in 2010 too.

 

Adam is now quoting his “everyone should be more like the Jews” ideology and how it’s not necessarily in line with Hitler’s new world order.

Adam is now explaining why he’s flattered, how you can’t call him short when he’s 6’2” and being called a Nazi or a hack doesn’t feel like anything because they hold no truth, wow this is some super enlightened way of thinking, my mind is blown!

Adam is now having Gary fetch the rest of the article, where the woman who wrote it seems to emphasize nobody in the crowd was disagreeing, Adam and BB are embracing the “roast” element while mocking the “reporters” insane angle.

 

Alison is now reading the article written by the sad moronic woman, BB has a great reply towards Adam.

Adam is now giving his reply to the potential industry while his kids hold their ears in the next room, Adam is telling the industry to go fuck themselves as he rides away on his pirate ship.

This is so amazing, YES! Adam is killing it, and now Alison is reading the rest of the quotes about the spirit of the room while Andy wad giving his speech.

Adam is now sharing his idea about August driving like he hates gas and all other people, Adam is explaining how it was too late for Adam to drive the car when they showed up out Bob’s track.

Adam is back to the history between Bob and Paul and their 20 years of travelling the country together as a race team, even the “salad dressing days” as BB puts it.

Adam is sharing how broken down Matt Fondiler was, beet red and sweating profusely, Adam is describing it as a cardiac event.

 

Matt is now on mic, he’s explaining how he was punked into thinking he would be attending a fancy dinner in NYC and only brought dress shoes.

Adam is calling him “weird kind of penis red” BB seems to get a kick out of it and Adam is now at the point when they wrapped the interview with an Andy driving Mike August.

Adam is now describing the dueling Soca vs. Peter Cetera car to car battle they had with the south American rave going on next door.

Adam is sharing the low man on the totem pole move they pulled on Matt regarding him returning the rental car while they planned to try to delay the flight somehow(bad plan!).

The flight was delayed and they couldn’t reach Matt due to the dying cell phone he was using all day to navigate them, I’ve been in his shoes a few times, this is glorious!

 

Adam is sharing how he tried to get into one of the lounges he has access to due to his status and ticket, he’s mocking the woman who didn’t know where the lounge was and seemed to think it was before security.

Adam is now describing the curried fish entrée that was perfect after a long hot Connecticut day, August ate half the pot while telling Adam how horrible it was with every bite.

This is reminiscent of Adam’s early 2000 “Can I get a fucking cheeseburger!?” rant at Kimmel’s annual holiday fish fry.

 

Adam is now at the point of Matt finally arriving right as they heard one of the strangest announcements they’ve ever heard.

They were told they might get a “push off” if everyone boarded the plane now, Adam is describing it as weird an unprofessional, it’s actually part of the industry, while waiting on ATC decisions.

Alison is wondering if anyone balked at the idea of boarding the plane for risk of being stuck on the plane for the entire delay, Adam is describing the guy who trying to convince the whole group to walk off the flight to get a free voucher and hotel stay.

 

Natalia and Sonny are now in studio hanging with pops, BB has a nice bit of appreciation for Sonny’s newfound swagger, Natalia has a couple good one liners roasting Adam, Olga, Lynette and Sonny, comedy gold!

Sonny’s reactions are priceless, BB seems to be loving it and Natalia is dropping more comedy science, great punch line!

Sonny seems to know the amount of ringtone sales, down to the penny, wow!

 

Adam is having Sonny give a few variants of his famous ringtone “That’s Just a Waste of My Time”, the kid has it!

Adam is asking Paul about some of the worst/most cliché scenes in crappy movies.

Adam is bringing up the scene in “Gremlins” where Phoebe Cates describes the death of her father, as famously deconstructed in December of 2008 on the KLSX version of the ACS.

 

They’re now playing the scene, Adam is mocking the scene as it plays out, he even has a nice Easter bunny one liner that echoes the President’s Day scene from “Gremlins 2: the New Batch” where they mocked their own melodrama from part one.

Adam is now calling for a documentary just about that scene, BB wants to know why they haven’t had Adam on “How Did This Get Made” and Adam just offered to guest, nice work Bryan!
