BB is absent today, attending a funeral.
Adam is telling the gang about the assistant coaching he did for his son’s game, he’s now calling for some acoustic work for all gymnasiums, he’s explaining why.
Adam is now missing BB, Alison still isn’t and her reply has looped Adam back around to not missing him, Adam is going off on back up beepers and gym buzzers for being louder than they need to be.

Adam is breaking down the 7 and younger division rules, he’s telling Alison how they trained the kids to follow the rules despite the other teams with inferior coaching not being able to grasp them.
Adam is asking what he should do and fearing becoming “that guy” the yelling dad who seems too involved, Alison is right in the mix with Adam and felling the weight of the story.
Adam was forced to finally approach the ref and bring up the rule violations and was met with bullshit blow off answers from the out of it referee, Adam is citing how he doesn’t invent his own reality like most others, Alison agrees and cited the abundance of this involved in sports.
Adam is explaining the rest of the events in great detail while citing human motivation, from what I gather all the other coaches and teams are chock full of cheaters that get a pass from the out of it referees.
Alison is summing things up nicely, I really enjoy this vibe of just the two of them bonding over a story.

Adam is now breaking down the 2 uncomfortable “I Love Lucy” moments at his house from earlier in the day, the first was the attire worn by the cast along with the casual chain smoking.
Adam actually has the name “Eddie Grant” of the guest character and seems to be getting into this show, he’s connecting it back to his “no one exists except for me” the narcissism epidemic in society and across the globe.
Bruce is explaining the dangers of rating and reviewing doctors, he’s now quoting a story from an article he brought up a few months back.
Alison has a “wonky” point about how she’s observing society falling apart, she’s citing the “do you” advertisement tactics and Adam is agreeing while adding to the point.

Adam just mentioned he’s been trying to get his kids to do the “yoga headstand” and he’s now going to demonstrate it for Alison and BB, you can see the video on the website via the show page link.
Bruce is doing terrible “play by play” asking Adam questions the whole time, hilarious yelled response from Adam when asked how much of his bodyweight his arms are supporting.
Bruce is telling the gang about the possible dangers of the new HIV testing kits, he’s citing the number of infected college kids in the United States and Adam is suggesting the numbers are inflated much like 2nd hand smoke related cancer deaths.

They’re discussing the changes in society that lead to kids thinking they can do anything Brian is joking about people wanting him to critique their early stand up sets and Alison and Adam are agreeing and adding to it.
Adam is now joking about people playing fake saxophone and how it looks like playing an instrument vs. playing a fake trumpet with a finger in your mouth, in response to his “YouTube channel of him doing gay porn or playing a fake saxophone in an 80’s movie” idea.
Dr. Bruce is now attempting to shit on Adam’s point about shadow puppets being unacceptable with today’s kids and Bruce is trying to tell him about his finger puppetry that the twins used to enjoy.
Bruce forgets the name of his own finger animal and Adam has a funny Peabody joke that Brian picks up on and tags, hilarious!
Adam is breaking down Lynette’s recent “Emergen-C” run for his cold prevention needs, he’s explaining how he instructed her to get a chub pack and how “tropical” flavoring is a cop out and tastes like shit.
Lynette got the tropical variety because they were out of the orange and now Adam is lamenting items that too closely resemble the standard flavor, hilarious description that Brian seems to appreciate and one again tags back, gold!
Adam is taking it back to the kitchen and the interesting discussion with Lynette, “I knew you’d be pissed no matter what” is now being broken down as a response while he cites his one man quest to destroy tropical flavoring along with Passion Fruit.
Adam is explaining how he would’ve preferred just a single box of the tropical to tide him over till the orange flavor was back in stock.

Adam has a great “hot sand fisting” metaphor and Brian stops to object, hilarious!
Alison’s News
Her top story is on Alec Baldwin quitting twitter after his wife was falsely accused of tweeting during James Gandolfini funeral.
Alison is now reading some of Alec’s tweets in reply to the article, Adam’s initial reactions to the details are pretty great.
Brian has a great singing along to Wu-tang vs. yelling at a member to go along with Adam’s comments about racial slang and how it’s worse when directed at someone of that group.
Adam has a quick comment in reply to Dr. Bruce mocking the concept of “white privilege” while Alison reads the reaction from GLAAD along with Baldwin’s apology.
Adam is now breaking down why GLAAD can’t come after Alec due to his politics and work with them, very astute understanding of hypocrisy from the Aceman.
Gary is attempting to find out if this reporter was gay, he’s explaining why it matters with a hilarious “Irish/Beaner” comment that Brian agrees is actually funny.
Adam is explaining that Alec essentially falls back into his childhood defenses against these people when he gets into public arguments.
Adam, Brian and Bruce are breaking down all the classic childhood disses and insults, Gaylord and QueerBait are now being riffed.
Adam is doing a solo morning show duo improv of Gaylord and QueerBait, I wish Patton Oswalt or even BB was in studio to jump in for the 2nd role.
Adam just was told this reporter isn’t gay and is now declaring it less offensive while explaining that Alec’s natural abilities and acting gifts allow him to operate with impunity unlike people like Paula Deen who are dependent on sponsors.
Alison seems to agree and is now asking what crimes one is allowed to come back from, she’s explaining that Paula Deen can’t come back from her comments.
Adam is taking her argument and using talent and ability to explain how people can get past just about any wrong doing, he’s comparing the sins of Paula Deen to Michael Jackson.
They’re on a hilarious riff about Paula’s book being number 1 on amazon, good stuff.
Alison is wrapping the news, Adam is giving plugs and wrapping the show, very unusual vibe but I really enjoyed this one, nice work gang!
