Seth is now making his first in studio appearance on the ACS and it’s also his first in studio visit with Adam since 2001 Classic Loveline promoting “Undeclared”, he was on in 2000 promoting “Freaks and Geeks” and it’s the infamous “Wart Exam” challenge episode that led to the examination.

Seth had two awesome but brief phoners to the ACS on KLSX, one in 2007 for “Knocked Up” and another in 2008 as well.

 

BB has a great #TopDrop and Adam is telling the gang about seeing “This is the End” last week and how eager he is to talk about it with them.

Alison wants to know how exaggerated their portrayals are and Adam has a hilarious description of Seth’s depiction of himself in the movie, gold!

 

Adam is telling the gang about his daughter’s upcoming ice skating shows and the kids insane online shopping requests for their birthday.

Adam is now going on about the notion of love and how you can only care about so many things, BB is asking if there is a sweet spot much like Adam’s mattress height rule of thumb.

Adam’s connecting it to his daughters request for multiple American Girl dolls as opposed to one she would love more than an entire lot, some fans might make some car analogy and Adam has already agreed with the notion when he discussed the woman who loved her Mustang at the last race.

Adam’s got a crazy joke about what he can no longer do with her American Girl doll.

 

Adam is telling the gang about Natalia and her “Crazy Core” of balance, Adam is explaining how he was physically amazing as a child and the never peaked with puberty unlike some of his superhuman cohorts.

Adam is telling the gang about reminiscing with the gang over sandwiches about Ozzie and his 2hr lunch runs, Adam is explaining how he was “running a scam on himself” in the words of the unnamed lunch companions and didn’t actually service his better interests despite his shortsighted attempts.

Adam’s making some great points about how obvious your scam becomes after 2-3 incidents and has a hilarious Boca Raton housing scheme one liner.

1st blog choices are Glenn Frey, Nick Offerman and Tom Green.

Adam is now riffing about the logic behind the blog entry and sticking with the point about the taxes paid by Steve Jobs.

Alison just got a text message from “Tom Green” how great magnet, Adam and BB have some nice light teasing for her excited reveal.

This one has a great ending with a mysterious lack of information from A-Rose about the texts.

 

2nd blog choices are Tracy Morgan, Russell Simmons and Al Roker.

Adam is going off on the arts vs. skills, he’s asking the rest of the gang about how musical ability factors into someone’s life who no longer plays.

Alison has a solid point and so does Mike Dawson, Adam has a killer response that everyone in the booth seems to appreciate.

BB is arguing against Adam’s hardline take on the role of music in school.

Seth is now reuniting on air with Adam after a 12 year in person break, Adam is praising Seth’s new movie “This Is the End” and it’s insanely high Rotten Tomatoes score.

Evan just revealed that Seth was on the last season of “Dawson’s Creek”, they’re now playing a clip of Seth on the show after Adam and him realized their great magnet connection to the show.

They’re both now lamenting the haunted “Bed and Breakfast” style hotel used for Dawson’s Creek guest stars and Adam is now recounting his revising of “Perfect Strangers” during his 2003 trip to North Carolina.

Somewhere Busy Phillips is throwing her hands in the air (if she listened to the show) as she was the reason Seth, Adam and Drew were all brought to the Creek during its final run due to her friendship with the production staff(writers?).

 

Alison’s News

Her top story is on the NSA scandal regarding the phone records of US citizens, she’s explaining the details and Adam doesn’t care nor do the guests and Alison too.

Seth’s reaction to his mild criminal activity being recorded and documented is pretty great and Alison has a perfect logical summation.

Alison has a question about “grading” and Adam’s feigned misunderstanding in reply is as inane and hilarious as can be.

Alison is now explaining the concept of an “Exit Bag” to the gang, Adam and BB don’t recall that Teresa told them the same thing several times on the morning show and on the podcast a time or two, her aunt who had a copy of “The Final Exit”, Alison makes it clear she learned of them from the news story.
