Adam is opening the show to a great #TopDrop from former 2006 KLSX Adam Carolla Show “Webmaster” (Webmistress) Billy Moses, sharing what he learned about himself the Adam Sandler “Comedy” Anger Management, how appropriate with OG sports guy Dave Dameshek in studio.
Adam is sharing his experience in traffic after Lynette shared some of Drew’s wisdom from their discussions on her two appearances on the Dr. Drew podcast.
Adam is explaining that he’s not interested in working on the part of life where he overcomes getting resentful having to tell people the same thing multiple times.
He is saying he’s willing to change his “yelling at the dashboard of life” reactions though, pretty huge.
Adam is going off on the guy who was parked in front of him texting in the middle of the road, he’s now citing “this one” which really put him over the edge and he’s going off on the light cycle which could allow for all 10 cars had everyone been paying attention.
Adam is now going back to breakdown the “there will always be something else” discussion with Lynette where he was trying to get her to add Mangria signing dates to the website.
Dameshek is now citing the true peril of L.A. drivers, the mindless low speed searching for whatever it is they’re trying to find.
Dave is doing his best Adam rant, this is good stuff. Adam is arguing against the “maybe they’re from out of town” argument used to defend motorists who make dangerous and inconsiderate moves behind the wheel.
Alison is now sharing an anecdote about being stuck in an intersection due the traffic mistakes of others, Adam has a hilarious reply to her reaction of being caught.
Adam and Alison are bonding over the rude motorists who won’t pull forward to help you get clear of an intersection.
Adam is bringing up the “N word” discussion and the IROC-Z, Adam’s bringing up his brilliant point about racial slurs cutting deeper based on the level of prosperity of the group they’re about.
Adam is now breaking down “Italian Retard out Cruising” which was tweeted at him by a fan to explain what the IROC-Z means in New Jersey.

Adam is using the toast at wedding from men vs. women to exemplify the innate natural tendency among the genders, this is a perfect point and I can’t find a flaw in the logic.
Alison is saying she ultimately agrees with Adam and thinks it has to do with women not being raised/encouraged to be funny and make jokes.
Adam is sharing why he doesn’t like the socialized argument, citing children and their innate toy preferences.
Alison and Adam are having a great back and forth and Adam calls men’s resistance to hugging it out a “defense of intimacy” and how comedy is used to keep people at an arms distance and how that runs counter to the majority of women who desire that intimacy.
Dave is now joining the discussion with some great points and a nice bit of praise for Sarah Silverman, Dave is agreeing with Adam and making some great points along the way.
Dave has an interesting point about the two kinds of funny, Adam objects to him prefacing it as interesting and Dave is breaking down the two masculine forms of funny, self-deprecation vs. attack humor and Alison helps him flesh the point out.
Adam is breaking down the people who try to attribute his sense of humor to his poor upbringing vs. people who try to credit Jimmy’s comedy to his good home life.

Adam is telling the gang about discussing hidden television compartments and how ridiculous there are and the only possible excuse to attempt to hide them.

Gary and AV Ed, arranged for Adam to utilize a slingbox device to send his shows to his hotel room in NYC, Gary tried his best but the pitiful internet at the trump hotel couldn’t provide enough bandwidth.
It’s too bad nobody had access to unlimited 4G LTE, if so Gary could have left his phone in Adam’s room powering the box for him with one of the disguised “tether apps”.

This is new, I’m enjoying this reaction and tone from David.
