Adam is further talking about how shitty the Bat Mobile looks in person, Adam is blaming the 1970’s for why that plane was so bad.

Drew wants to know how things could be so bad in such recent history, Gary has the details on the aircraft and Drew asks if it’s a 747 and grafted on a hump in his mind.

Adam is back to the 1970’s and trying to figure out why everyone was bad then, Adam is now arguing that we’re far more weak and pussy now in society, everybody is a soft piece of shit.

1st Caller Tim, his wife cheated on him 7 months into their marriage.

Drew is now asking some tough questions to try and figure out the motivation for the cheating, Adam talks about living a one bedroom apartment with a partner, trying to deal with life on a daily basis and how unfair it is to compare the interest of some stranger who wants to fuck you vs. the person who loves you.
