Show Summary
At the top of the show, Adam welcomes his dad and buddy Ray to the show. He talks with his dad about the infamous ‘hell yeah’ drop, and the guys discuss why their podcast needs donations. Jim also discusses the themes behind ‘Life Lessons,’ and Ray’s contributions to the show. Later, Adam rants about his audio book, and explains why people’s behavior is consistent, whether it’s good or bad.
Will Sasso joins the podcast next, and Adam congratulates him on his role in the new Three Stooges movie. Will talks about working with the Farrelly Brothers, and the research that went into playing Curly. Lynch chimes in with some sad backstories on the original stooges.

Sasso and his crazy calves…
I know right? I have bigger calves than most myself, but those are ridiculous. Look like carved granite.
That box talk was seriously freakin brilliant. That’s why he’s the aceman.
OMG its the gay morning zoo!
KATIE’S DAILY PODCAST DRAWING!
MIke and Ike have nothing on this breakup

Right on! Huge Sasso fan and I like that, when pushed past ‘from near Vancouver’ he safely goes with ‘Ladner ‘so he won’t have to explain or spell or debate what a Tsawwassen is
I have to believe LA must be entirely obnoxious if Adam does think Vancouverites are that friendly and easy-going. In fact, Sasso is right on – you move out here in the prairies to get the hell away from the obnoxious show-boats and attitude queens in pretentious Vancouver. Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfies are the real friendly down-to-earth people of Canada. Anyways – huge fan of Sasso and I insist that Kenny Roger’s Punk’d prank on Clay Aiken is quite possibly one of the funniest effing things I have EVER seen… actually fell off my chair with real tears laughing. GOOD Will gets a big money hit! he deserves that!
whoooooooooooooo cares?
Do you happen to live in Regina, Saskatchewan?
Will Sasso would be perfect to play Dennis Hof in a movie about the bunny ranch.
Is Adam sitting on Will’s lap?
I know that is a complisult.
Adam and The Sass, in the morning. Get. It. On.
Oh man, passive aggressive behavior, or what?
First, Dad’s lease car is taken away because it wasn’t being used to Adam’s standards. Now, Pop just isn’t gettin’ done for the the podcast.
Such a great guest.
To avoid the confusion with “well kept”, suggest this edit:
” … the hot tub . That was always well maintained.”
WIll Sasso’s a Canuck?!?!! Maybe that’s why I’ve loved him for so long.. and The Stooges movie may be stupid but I howled at it (just like their old stuff).
The three principles are PERFECT as Moe, Larry, Curly. I mean you could sense Sasso was ideal for playing Curly 15 years ago, but Diamantopoulos and Hayes pleasantly surprised me.
Also does this film count as Canadian-Content?
The “Hell Yeah” has always sounded like Cousin Sal to me.
Great Calves
Howard Stern, a 3 Stooges fan and a “Judge” confessed to liking the new Stooges Movie… just saying
It’s “well KEMPT” not “well kept”
Actually both work but kempt removes room for misinterpretation
Sasso was a great guest. I wish he could have worked his Hulk Hogan impression into the mix but still kick ass.
That is a lame ass video for smugglers blues but Adam can’t make me hate the song. It’s probably the best Glenn Frey song there is (that’s not saying much). Great episode with the Leykis drops and dolphin suit.
Regarding the “well kept” versus the “well kept secret”: most book editors are people who do not understand colloquialisms pertaining to anything having to do with maintenance or physical labor. Saying that you have a well kept hot tub does not compute for them. Saying that you have a well maintained hot tub might make more sense to them. It is a disconnect of a social nature. A well kept lawn, or engine, or workshop, or hot tub are phrases that simply have no meaning in many people’s lives, anymore. Having a well kept website or blog? Maybe.
This is my cynical theory on the subject, anyway.
Obvious solution: Track Changes feature on Word. If real book editors aren’t using it, this world no longer makes sense to me.
Yes Will Sasso and his badass calves.
The Tom Leykis/Will Sasso creepy laugh off had me crying.
Maybe if you didn’t constantly badmouth your Dad people would be more open to supporting him. Just a thought.
The calves of a god…
5$ a month for the “Jim Carolla Experience”?? Love Adam, but his presumption that people should pay for his dad’s crackpot musings is pretty ridiculous. Get sponsors or cut it lose! Times are tough.
this is a switch! not the usual “loosing it” for “losing it”, but “cut it lose” for “cut it loose”.
Love Jim and Ray. I gotta start listening to Jim’s show. Such a nice guy qnd a shame that Adam gives him such a rough time. Seriously though; it doesn’t seem like Ace’s normal crowd would go for Jim’s show. Here’s hoping it stays up.
Sasso you make the Dominion proud.
Finally someone who shares my fantasy of Hayden Penetierre in a dolphin outfit.
Will was a great guest. His laugh is priceless…bring back often.
woah woah woah, did alison just school adam on a carpentry term?
That’s hot box talk.
“jog home on the balls of your feet…”
BUAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAAAA!!
nice one, Aceman!
Choose Meadow Soprano with the Dolphin/Klan Suit— Call me James Klandolphini
hot hockey talk at the end there!
Sasso was a great guest. Compliments the AC Man’s style really well.
Get It On.
Oh man this was a great episode. Sooo funny
Funniest show Ive heard
Where’s the round of Made Up Movie?
I think there’s a disconnect between you guys and the publisher on the difference between kept and kempt. Just sayin’.
Hey Chris or Gary are you guys aware of these great, hilarious drawings about bits in the show that this girl Katie is doing? Adam has never mentioned her and the other posters rarely comment on her work, and it’s damned good! She’s consolidated everything here: http://katie-acepodcast-drawings.blogspot.com/ Please check it out and show some to the Aceman. Thank you.
Ya thanks for the heads up, I’ve actually emailed Katie to let her know how great they are and I’ve shown everyone around ABN as well. Thanks
Your email got lost in all my junk! Thank you so much, I would have never found it had I not just read this. You guys are awesome! I live to draw another day.
Boobs!!! mwhahahaaa
Amazing stuff. You should have Brian Whitman come/call in and let Bald Bryan harvest some more drops.
Sasso’s got a funny laugh. Seems like a good dude too. I never really liked his work though on Mad TV, must have been the shitty producers. Glad to get a taste of the real deal. Get it on!
Sasso has an infectious laugh. I’d love to hear him and Bert Kreischer
cracking up then throw in Maria Menounos
Please adjust low pass filter in DSP. This may get rid of breathing on Air.
everytime i hear sonny saying…’just a waste of my time” i repeat it in my best impression… funny !
Love me some Sasso. Though I wish they had talked to him about “Ski School 2.”
LA must be horrible, because Vancouver is full of shallow superficial people and some of the most horrible standoffish women in Canada.
Perhaps something YOU are doing is making them stand-offish????
But, doubt you have any insight into this, obviously.
Will Sasso may be the perfect guest: he’s a fan of the show, totally game, starring in a current top 5 box office movie, but not too big a star to seem “above it”, and he’s a great laugher. It’s enough of a change from Joe Walsh to give you the bends…
Adam’s dad NEVER gives a straight answer to Adam’s questions.
Sasso is such a cool ass guest. I have truly enjoyed everytime he is on. Please bring him on more often. Always the sport and flawlessly integrates with the crew.
Will Sasso, great guest, great calves and an infectious laugh! Bonus that he’s also a fan of the podcast, Love that!! He was very funny……
I also love it when Alison gets schooled by Adam about her “liberal progressive mind”. Go Adam!
Box riff was great. The show would not be half as good without Alison and Brian.
brilliant episode. funny throughout
Katie- you are, to paraphrase Carolla, “doing the Lord’s work.”
when sasso and adam started riffing on the cop pulling him over to check out his calves I straight lost it on the subway. great stuff
Whatever happened to Donny?
this episode should rank amongst the best
Sasso’s best impression was his Kenny Rogers. So funny. Great episode
Speaking of douchiest douche whoever douched, Adam can’t let his father record a podcast without generating revenue? Wow. He has a studio, it’s not booked 24/7. What’s the extra expense, an hour of
an engineer’s time?
The expense is bandwidth, not studio time.
I just started the episode… not sure how the gang is going to handle commentary on the 3 Stooges with Sasso. There is no possible way that movie can be complimented in any way.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for saying that Cameron Diaz is overrated.I’ve been thinking that for 15 years now.
Excellent material. Exchange with Will Sasso was hilarious. The following Key and Peele was funny as hell.
Wow, check out those veins Sasso’s packing. What’s up with The Rock’s arms? They fucking lubed the shit out of them!
Can we please put a limit to the amount of times bald Bryan can use a sound effect per episode/week/ever? He’s funny when he speaks & his drops are generally tolerable, occasionally verging on amusing. But when he plays the same sound we’ve heard a thousand times already over a man who sounds painfully feeble & is barely intelligible, not only is it childish & hard to listen to but it’s a real dick move towards your boss’s father. Was pathetic to hear someone stoop that low.
These type of shows are always the best: when the guest has heard of and likes Adam, and when Adam leaves them in stitches. Add Will Sasso to the list of great guests:
Lisa Lampanelli
Chris Jericho
Frank Stallone
Artie Lange & Nick diPaolo
Ben Schwartz
Kate Flannery
Adam’s old high school buddies (bring those guys back, btw!)
I just listened to life lessons with old man Carolla, I LOVED IT, I will give money when I can, but c’mon adam…….it can’t be that expensive
I think it’s customs that’s really responsible for screening for smugling. The TSA screens passengers for boarding the planes. Although, I’m sure if they found a kilo of coke in your suitcase they would hand you over to a homeland security cop.
Adam has been talking about sasso’s calves forever and I got to say I am not that impressed. I was waiting to see legs bigger than mine and now I’m disapointed. Still a Big sasso fan guy is hilarious. get it on!
Those are not natural calves. Sasso’s juicin. You can also hear his beefed up larynx when he does the Lycas laugh. This is not a waste of my time. Sonnys crazy, musta got a little of Pops’ genes. Thanks for another great show guys.
Sasso is a great guest. It’s always fun when the guest is a fan of the show, like Sasso or John Cho.
Great show! Will Sasso is an awesome guest. Love that contagious laugh of his! Bring him back early and often.
Lay off your Dad Adam! His podcast is great – totally different and enlightening…and YES I made a donation. Keep his ship afloat Adam – you can afford it! Be the change you wish to see in others!!!!
