I remember Maria from channel 1 in high school. Great motivation to go to 1st period. She should get some kind of an educational award for keeping guys in class!!
She was on Channel 1! Too funny. When I watched Channel 1 (1994-1995) the main news reporter was Lisa Ling and everyday she wore a mid-90′s chocker necklace. Memories!
I graduated in 04′ and Lisa Ling was still there. Maria, Lisa, and the other asian chick Janet are the only other ppl to make a nickel off that show. Don’t know what they do with the guy anchors over there but they don’t get any love.
Anderson cooper was on channel 1
She interviewed me on Channel 1!?!?!?!
and did a whole thing where they taped the acting troupe i was in when i was like
i wanna say… 24?
and we hit it off?!?!
she really did like my sense of humor,
i wasnt much to look at but i made with the Funny
and she fucking DUG IT!!!
we exchanged Emails & she gave me her number
she had a boyfriend any way
the point is i wrecked my truck & she called me & left a message.
so i felt like HAWT SHIET!!!
especially when i see her on the TV
and i always tel my Wife..
remember her?
yeah..
She was into me “Sniff”..
every damn NIGHT!
good one ACE!
LOVE THE SHOW ACE MAN!!!!
p.s.
me llamo
SURE SHOT!!
Nice!
OHHH MY GOD at Maria’s laugh!!!!!! OOOHHH MYYY GODDD!!!!!
Is that really Maria’s Laugh? Reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where Jerry’s Girlfriend had that horrible laugh… Wow!
One thing about Alison Rosen that is annoying is that she tries to be funny just by being vulgar. Vulgar is only funny if it has some wit behind it.
You’re a comedic genius
I would like to do something vulgar behind Alison.
she does over-rely on the girl-using-dirty-word device to be “shocking”
And Adam doesn’t? Come on, Adam, the F word isn’t really that shocking anymore the10th time you use it in the same sentence.
Here’s how you know you are right, the sponsors aren’t leaving because Rush’s listenership has crashed.
Jesus she is hot.
Great Story… best drop ever
Alison, we get it. You don’t like conservatives. They offend you because they’re, like, icky and stuff.. Just realize conservatives don’t have the power nor are they interested in stopping you from paying for your own contraception. Obama now has the power, however, to dictate what is covered and when. An Obama surrogate a few years ago said women under 50 shouldn’t get mammograms. Obama can make that law. Who should you be more afraid of?
You’re not too bright.
Yep, not sure why the gvt OR insurance needs to be paying for anyone – men or women- ‘s contraception. But if it’s prescribed for a valid medical reason, that should be covered.
I love how the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, a government panel of doctors and scientists, gets translated into ‘An Obama surrogate’.
agree!
Adam, the 2 types of donuts are CAKE and YEAST.
Thanks,
Jeff
Maria makes me want to get it on.
liked Maria Menounos way more when she had a round ass…made up for that laugh…kiddin’…dunkin’ donuts whole bean coffee is the best!..
What’s going on with posting the podcast to IiTunes this morning? It’s almost 9:00 am and the current episode is still not availalbe there yet…??
Nice to see Alison actually stand up, somewhat feebly, to Adam. If only she had done this Friday. Finally something came up that bothered her enough to actually almost dig into the story.
Adam is entitled to his opinion but it is a shame he is so poorly informed on facts. I don’t think he has an inkling about what Sandra Fluke was actually talking about. Nice to hear that Patricia Heaton actually bothered to read up on the controversy and surprise, surprise she apologized for her mistake. Adam and ideologues on the left and right could learn from this example. I would suggest Heaton starting with getting the information first before posting or ranting but good for her for at least eventually doing her due diligence.
Adam is right that people are allowed to voice their opinions. People pulling their ads and dumping Rush’s show are voicing theirs. If they find Rush offensive they have every right to ask sponsors to pull out.
This might not be the most offensive thing Rush has said but it comes after a long sustained attack on women and minorities in general and people are finally fed up with his bullshit.
Yawn.
Fluke is a 30-year-old professional activist who applied to Georgetown for the express purpose of changing the university’s insurance program. She also thinks insurance should cover sex change operations.
If Rush was anything other than a complete imbecile, this is what we would be talking about. I would love to see him taken off the air, both for the inane comment and the appalling lack of media savvy after three decades on the air.
STFU
Wow that laugh is freaking nuts.
Why did someone put the picture up of the dude from “Poltergeist”?
The Undertaker from “Phantasm” is an actor named Angus Scrimm.
Hey dudes, that’s not Angus Scrimm – the undertaker in Phantasm.
I know it and it’s driving me nuts. That’s Cain from Poltergeist 2. ha ha
OMG!!! This woman is so damn hot!!! Adam you lucky bastard!!!
Ace – you I love you but your idea about putting a cap on the number of hours a dancer can practice is the most retarded thing you ever came up with. The whole point of a competition is to see who wants it badly the most. If you have a max pussy rule about dancing practice then you will not have any possible transformation from the beginning of the season to the end. Also isn’t it totally against everything you talk about where you don’t want retarded rules in society telling people they should not be as hungry as they want to be since we want to leave it all up to individuals.
BTW – I totally want to have my tongue inside Maria Menounos!
wow… that laugh…
Why is Adam wearing the SAME SHIRT the last three podcasts? Lynette doesn’t do laundry?
Are you new? How many times do we have to explain it? Geez.
That laugh brings MM down to a 7.
she is a good guest. meshed well. but that laugh, wow
Aceman! You are the best. Here is an idea for a new podcast you can do. It’s called “Righteous Sniff with Ace.” It’s basically just 40 minutes of you having righteous sniff offs with other celebrities. Go Aceman!
I love how Adam carefully rides the fence when talking about Rush Limbaugh. He knows very well that he has to be careful because a large percentage of his audience is conservative and listens to Limbaugh.
I’m sure he would never admit to placating the conservative audience base but I thought it was quite obvious.
Or maybe it’s because he’s gotten into trouble for controversial statements he made on a radio show/podcast as well.
Ace is a conservative.
It’s not placating, its called being an adult. Adam produces value. He understands hard work. I wish he would ditch Allison.
WRONG!!!!!!!
Someone take that sound effects bar away from Bald Brian
I thought the crazy laugh was a drop. If not, it needs to be one now
Got yourself a real wafflecrapper in the studio tonight.
Does anyone else think that Imus sounds a lot like Bald Bryan when he first got diagnosed with a brain tumor? It is a bit eerie.
The laugh is like fingernails on a chalk board, straight out of a Seinfeld episode. She is hot, but if that laugh is for real, I don’t think I could get past it (well, maybe….).
Great stuff as always.
what? The Aceman defended a right winger like Rush Limbaugh? Im shocked. Ace is so predicatable in his right winged lunacy that ignores the facts, no wonder the podcast is fastly becoming a 2nd rate failure. Come on Aceman you can do it, you are a smart guy…….way to go Alison for defended a side that Ace is to blind to see…….on a sidenote that Maria chick is smoking hot, it was nice to see the Aceman actually be funny for a bit during the podcast
Adam was defending a broadcasters right to say what he wants.
Second rate failure? Go listen to some other podcast you dirty hippy.
Poochie’s Uncle, it seems like its you me against the same people all the time. Why do they want to be here and drag our shit down? Alisons old best friend needs to get out.
Second rate failure?! Are you fucking insane? This show is awesome. The worst thing about it is the always self righteous Alison Rosen…
Ace man is in heat over MM. And I don’t blame him. He kissed her ass more than any other guest I can remember. “Oh sweetie, you’re already a winner.” I certainly agree wholeheartedly w/ the assessment.
Don’t forget about Griffey the kid, 200 lbs and 6’3″, hit 56 homers with no steroids….best torque home run swing of ALL TIME
CF G.O.A.T.
she’s attractive but that laugh and brain ruined everything i thought of her lol
Wait, was Maria fucking around when she laughed like that or was it real?! Bahahaha!
I think Alison is awesome, but how many times did she agree with Adam this episode? She said “Yeah” or “Right” at least a thousand times.
So did I.
Hey Adam, how about some Celebrity Apprentice talk? The only reason I’m watching that stupid show is because you are on it, I know you aren’t watchin it, but let Brian and Allison bring up stuff so you can rant on it already!
Damn!!! Maria is so hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Photoshopped images.
Adam’s got it backwards. The only way it’s a compliment is if you are the digital artist that created it, to make it look so real. It’s a measure of how much disbelief others have, how much they doubt your abilities. As in ‘No way that’s you, it’s gotta be fake.’
Omg… ‘Adam Carolla’ was the $2000 answer (question) on Jeopardy. Real big people Jeopardy, not kid Jeopardy. Category; ‘Sweet Li’l Films’. For the record… None of the smarty pants contestants knew the answer : /
The upshot is: lowered expectations pave your path to wealth and prosperity thru all the bar bets that you can sucker people into.
That laugh is spectacular. You’re all nuts. She’s adorable in everyway.
Cute chicks always have adorable laughs.
If she was a fat slob, that laugh would be nails on a chalkboard.
How do you guys talk about celebrety nude pics and NOT talk about Maria’s lip slip pics. Ths was ignored on purpose, right?
Just Googled it. Nice.
At 5:16 or so in the Hearns/Duran fight Duran is lifted off his feet by a Hearns uppercut…. Freakin powerful!!
Basically any time something begins with “society” or “the society we’ve created” it’s going to be the same boring love song to hard work and lower taxes, ending with the tiresome “shut the fuck up.” It’s become the show’s weakest, most predictable part.
Call me crazy but I appreciate Rush Limbaugh and I also appreciate Ace Carolla.
You guys are both at the top of your game.
I’m on Alison’s side on Rush thing. To Adam I would remind him of his own philosophy that at some point we do have to “judge”, and Rush crossed a line where most people (including most Republicans) judged him to be way out of bounds. Rush is free to say what he wants, but we’re also free to call him on it too.
What’s with that laugh? Is it a bit or what?/ Made me sick to hear it!!
I’m glad they caught that criminal, or Mr. Peanut would have been next.
Aceman isn’t a left winger or a right winger, from listening to this podcast since the very first one – it’s clear when it comes to politics or political debate, Ace has a severe LACK of information on these topics. You really don’t want to hear his opinion on Limbaugh, Fluke, Santorum (except the froth) or Obama. Just like he wouldn’t want the opinions on cars from a woman who things you can tell the top speed of a car by the size of the steering wheel.
i just google image seach her (Maria Menounos), good shots of vag slip out of her bikinni bottoms
Maria is now a 1 in my book.. how could anyone not get annoyed with that laugh.. HOLY SMOKES!
Alison Rosen is getting better.. i just wish she wouldnt always laugh-breathe into the microphone all the time..
Seems like Maria Menoudos is threatened by Olivia Munn.. Girls love to hate each other, its awesome.
Maria was on Howard Stern’s show last April and her bf was present as well. Howard and him were teasing her on her bikini slip, the bf was revealing what she liked/disliked in bed, and various other personal details and she was going crazy with embarrassment, it was adorable.
Gotta hand it to Bald Bryan for not being afraid to create a drop out of something that the guest might not be too happy about. He famously nailed Andy Dick with “hooked-nose Jew” and he threw this girl’s machine gun laugh straight into the mix the first chance he got. Credit where credit’s due.
I think that picture is actually the guy from the movie Poltergeist, not Phantasm, although both of them look like Don Imus.
Gary likes musicals? He’s turning out to be an even better catch than I thought!
