Adam, Bald Bryan, and Alison Rosen

Show Summary
At the top of the show, Adam complains about the mildew in his shoes, and silly Year In Review shows. He proposes that the lists would be more interesting if they were talking about things that happened 20 years ago. Adam also discusses having to pay his assistant for the week, even though he’ll be going into surgery on a Monday.
Alison starts the news with the video of soldiers peeing on Taliban corpses. Adam suggests that the Taliban will always hate us, so the video will not be used as a recruitment tool, even if some people think it will. The guys also talk about a controversial safe sex video, and workers in an X-Box factory threatening suicide. Adam recalls why he hates video games, and talks about trying to get a picture of himself playing an X-Box he gave as a gift.
Later in the show, Adam jumps to the phones. The first caller wants to know which charity Adam is playing for on Celebrity Apprentice, and Adam recalls his experience being a Catholic Big Brother. Adam also tells a story about the Moore Theater in Seattle, and wraps the show ranting about the trashiness of LA.

I kinda agree with Adam on the Pissing Marines of 3/2 but if those were Afghans pissing on dead Americans I would be fucking livid and looking to go on a 3rd tour in the mid east. I can picture scenarios where these Marines felt justified doing this but don’t record it ya morons.
6:15 AM EST nothing on itunes
Get it on!!!! Sometimes I wish I had a choice.
Episode not on iTunes or app
There now, thanks
I have to shake my head when Ace talks about not being able to get out of him bunk in the WW2 game.
That is frustrating.
how do you call in? when is the show live?
Follow @adamcarolla or @adamcarollashow on Twitter, they announce when to call in (and give a number to call)
Note the picture of the soldiers is brought to you by LiveLeak?
Oh sweet irony!
Nice catch.
Anyone else having trouble w/ the Carolla app? Mine is only reloading at 8% and today’s podcast isn’t showing up.
I always have trouble w/the Carolla app for android. The buffer drops out like every 5 minutes and I hear the super annoying ding and, “an error occurred while playing episode. playing again.” Maybe it’s just my phone.
Chupa Chups are from Spain.
Always enjoy “just the gang shows” Get It On!
Hey Ace about your racing clothes did someone piss in your bag?Thats my guess.
I hadn’t thought of it, but I’m convinced that you are 100% correct.
Soaking wet, only INSIDE the bag. Sounds like piss.
Additionally, having lived with total college drunks, I can confirm that piss will mildew like that, if not discovered and cleaned up immediately. Yeah.
I wonder if Ray had been around that bag!
but who done it? Donnie? Sandy? Lynette? Sonny? fadda wizzes in the sink ya know…
Wouldn’t Adam be able to smell piss?
I like to listen adams rants, but everytime he talks about forgein politics he is just so way-off.
Example almost every western country are already trying to eliminete terrorism but just waaay more subtle way. Also I think that usa isn’t in danger to lose freedom like every USAA commercial suggest so why are we using so much money to wars?
I’ve got to agree, its these rants that make me go off the show for a while
It’s painful to see libtard posts going after Adams political views. Especially when they’re based on evidence. Spain bows to the train bomber and that’s after they withdrew troops. Spain has projected weakness and has paid for it. Parents need to make sure those public schools stop churning out participation trophy embryos that end up occupying wall street.
Why don’t you worry about your own country? Adam is spot on. All his rants are based on common-sense and logic.
I would pay to watch Adam play Medal of Honor
Moar Alison pics!!!!! She looking good.
Agreed.
That long self-satisfied sniff is really annoying. The sniff is supposed to be short and sweet. (insert short sniff here)
Cocky sniff, coined by Dan McDowell of BaD radio. Much better than saying “long self-satisfied sniff”
plus adam’s sniff sound all congested, clogged, and gross. the idea of the sniff is a quick, slick whiff. that’s the comdey, ya see. (adam’s not the only one selling opinions as fact)
lookin fiiiine alison!
F*** YOU ALLISON. AIDEN WAS AWESOME AND CARRIE BRADSHAW WOULD HAVE BEEN LUCKY TO END UP WITH A GREAT GUY LIKE HIM!!!
I agree with Internet Troll. Alison is looking quite hot.
Adam, all the damn snorting when you make a joke is really getting out of control. More ‘good one aceman’, less snooooooooooooooooooort!!!!!
C
I blame iTunes. The only Thursday podcast I got today was WTF. I had to go old school with the RSS feed. Makes me feel like a man. Stupid iTunes.
I noticed that Rosen is wearing a colored top in this picture. Geeze, I hope everthing is alright.
LOL! Yeah, what happened? Did she run out of clothes from White House/Black Market?
I think she is dressing for comfort these days after surgery. I wonder if she is wearing her boots?
Good pod. Also listened to latest “For Crying Out Loud” episode in which Lynette and Adam do a little fussing at each other and the two kids grab some airtime. I hope Adam lives to be a hundred years old but when he does leave this earth I believe he’s going to meet that “make believe guy in the sky”. Adam’s obviously a sharp dude. As such I wish he would listen to the brilliant former atheist C.S. Lewis’s book (audio) “Mere Christianity”. It takes a very calm reasoned intellectual approach that is immensely powerful and has converted zillions of atheists in the 70 years since its release.
@Bobby I’d love to see some numbers to back up your “zillions” claim. To admit to being an atheist at this point is a conscious decision. Most of us have thought it out and have come to the conclusion ourselves that religion is bogus on our own. You believe what you believe because of where you were born. You were born here so you’re a Christian. If you were born in Saudi Arabia you’d be a Muslim, and if you were born in India you’d be a Hindu. Unless you believe there is something particularly special about your geography then you shouldn’t find anything particularly special about your religion over all the zillions of other ones. After all, they can’t all be right. In fact Most of them dictate that only theirs is in fact correct. If you believe that a zillion – 1 religions are bogus why not just take the extra leap and include yours in the heap. Once you boil it down it’s pretty similar to many many others anyway.
You’re entitled to your own beliefs, but please stop trying to push them on others, even if you are trying to be friendly. Envangelising is inherently pushy and dickish no matter how nice you are trying to come off.
stfu moron
oh shutup
If you think about existentialism and the Humanist Ethic that Sartre talked about, I.E. living an authentic life, realizing that because you know the “Good” you have to abide by it (Socrates/Plato said the same thing) it doesn’t really matter whether it’s because of God or not.
One thing that’s common is: once you realize your place in the world you decide to shut up.
That would be a bad career move for Adam.
Not a lion, a witch nor a wardrobe will make me believe in god.
Okay Bobby, settle down. Go do your convertin’ somewhere else.
Why does everyone need to be saved and always take a moment to save someone? I think atheists need to start converting from other religions. So we can enlighten others to being good people without needing a rule book.

when is adam doing a show in chicago ?
would like to know or any were close
except for detroit that city sucks
I’m going to be honest. I fastfowarded, a new word i made up, to just the rant about L.A that Adam went on. Growing up in La Crescenta til i was 22 then moving to Oregon where i’ve been the last 4 years. I’m 26 now, just doing the math for Ace man cause i know he was like Gilbert Grape in mathematics during the school years. When u finally escape from L.A.(rim shot) it never gets old to hear about why one leaves that cesspool so don’t think ur it’s a bit gettin old cause us ex SoCos who now live in the northwest love to be reminded that were not in living the movie Falling Down a lil bit every day waking up in mini Mexico.
You are an intelligent young man about to ruin your life. And I’m being honest; you need to think about yourself — not Adam nor anyone else. Then think about what you want to do, and realize it’s nothing to do with you.
alkata is fake made by cia with bin laden. They dont hate us they dont know us.
Alison is sooooooooooooooooooooo beautiful
…wanted to pre-order “Rich Man, Poor Man”, but need a Kindle Fire. Any chance it will be available on all Kindles?
What kind of half ass job are we getting with the show summary and images posted on this episode! Matt you really need to step up your game. I realize you work hard punishing the porcelain but you need to stop phoning in these summaries and photo documentations. Don’t you realize many people who stumble upon this website who have never heard Adam before will judge if they should listen to this podcast based n how nice the web pages look.
Funny Show, Funniest snort ever.
Adam,
I love the show. My favorite part of todays show was when you complain about how you have to pay for your “Personal Assistant” and “Nanny” to go on vacation. I can relate. Last Christmas I lost my job. I was unemployed for 10 months last year. Had to move in with my Mom so I didn’t take food stamps. Had no insurance. Got a job now with a 1/3 pay cut, but hey it’s a job. Us common folk need to stop worrying about Va-ja-ja surgeries or Terminal Brain Tumors and really think more about Nannies Vacations. I can’t imagine what you and Lynette would do without your Nanny for 7 days.
Sincerely,
Andrew
bald brian chupa chups are from spain and their logo was designed by salvador dalí. not exactly a crappy mexican endvoer.
What’s worse than a year in review. Predictions for next year. Here are predictions from 100 years ago that came true.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-16444966
This might make the room spin, but it was an engineer, not a spiritualist who made the predictions!
BTW, Alison; you are hot, with a pretty smile!
If all this is about is Adam embracing balding or semi-balding guys in a gayish grimace, I’m out.
Casa Bonita, a terrible dinner, but a nice desert, and people in gorilla suits.
I’ll be in Elkwood Maryland, then Aberdeen, pissing on Marines who enjoy that shit.
Colonel Slanders.
Yeah, you do.
Just found this podcast back in December… Aceman is the best… F’n tells it like it is.. He was right on target today w/ those pieces of shit… fuck them.
I’ve been tempted to say “Fuck them”, but i don’t think that’s the goal. We can’t fuck them; it’s a Society (a group of friends).
Maybe the Taliban soldiers were on fire and the Marines were just helping them by putting the fire out?
If only Bryan had an ounce of humor in his body, that Best Buy bit could have worked.
Haha, Adam’s self-satisfied sniffs were OUT OF CONTROL this episode. I can usually control my laughs at work but when he does that I lose my shit
Why is the Rich Man, Poor Man book not a coffee table book? It would seem perfect for that? More exposure for Ace Man, shorter book that people can read through and discuss… why not Ace?
Men aren’t visual, they’re visioneers, meaning: I can see something I can do to do something, to effect something, which is why there are blouses with zippers.
I like Bryan’s grey shirt. I wear one when I’m drinking and eating egg-salad sandwiches. Then I wear it again, because I like the stink. It’s familiar.
Anyone know the name of the xbox game Adam was trying to play? I thought it was Medal of Honor
earl Harbor, but it doesn’t look like it. You start out in the bunk of the U.S.S. Arizona apparently.
