“Danny Bonaduce Welcome to MY Apartment” – Adam on the post-divorce lifestyle of Danny.

Gina’s News
1st Story is on the murder of Alton Sterling and the murder of Philando Castile, Adam hammers Gina to reveal that Alton had a gun that he had brandished earlier in the evening and was selling CD’s (discs, maybe pirate movies) illegally outside of a storefront.
Adam says the murder of Philando Castile troubles him much more, he explains why and that nobody deserves to die in this situation but Alton had knowingly put himself in a situation where things like what happened can happen, it still doesn’t make it ok nor right.
Adam is very clear, he says not every one of these black men who are murdered are heroes or upstanding citizens, citing some other shootings and the behavior that preceded it.
Adam talks about cops and the type of people who want to get into that line of work, they are the guys you expect them to be and they’re looking for a fight.
Adam tells the cops to knock of the chicken shit traffic stops for things like broken tail lights, they had no cause to pull this guy over.
Adam is talking about cops as income generating earners for the city and how hard it is to turn that faucet of cash off once you start it.
Adam says whatever you skin color is when the cops yell gets on the ground you got to get on the ground, Gina has a clip of from the Facebook video of Philando Castile’s girlfriend Diamond Reynolds.
Danny weighs in and Adam gives his theory on the stun gun that Cousin Sal brought into The Man Show, of course someone was going to get shocked.
Adam says it’s a self-selecting group who become cops and Adam says his only protest on this is when people say it’s open season on black people, Adam says we just don’t’; report it when it’s white people, it’s everyone who get this treatment.
Adam has a “black car” accident narrative theory on this, he says there are plenty of footage of cops shooting white people and Hispanic people, it’s not just one group, the stats back that up.
Gina asks if they are approaching large black men with a different mindset when approaching black men, he says it’s based on crime stats and can’t be weeded out, they got guns and are some of the dumbest guys you went to high school with, it’s going to happen.
Adam says the lager group is males, just males, not black men, it’s about who commits the majority of crimes.
Gary has the details on the Dylan Noble case where they shot him while he lied on the ground in front of them, Adam says it’s wrong, but the narrative of its black people is poisoning us.
Danny has never seen this reported on the news, he was executed by cops, why no story? It doesn’t fit the narrative.
Adam says of course if you’re in the black community you’re going to feel this way, it’s the narrative you’ve been fed, you watch the same TV he watches.
Adam says the news agencies need to report every death at the hands of cops or tone down the instigation, Adam says that CNN has something to do with pharmacies in Ferguson being burned down.
Adam brings up how they use “kid” and “gentle giant” to inflame these things worse, Danny brings up the Michael Brown shooting.
2nd Story is on Sarah Silverman’s Epiglottitis and hospitalization, Adam talks abbot the irony of this as she’s always been so focused oral hygiene and was the first person to introduce tongue scarping to him, hilarious vagina comment from Ace.
Gina talks about Sarah’s experience and they discover it’s a bacterial condition that can be transmitted if someone sneezes on you.
Adam is talking about the difficulty in spelling these complicated names, he ends up giving to the catholic big brothers in place of these conditions as he can’t spell them when put on the spot.
3rd Story is on Jon Jones suspension for a potential doping violation and Gary has the late breaking update of Anderson Silva filling in for Jones.
Adam is trying to comment on Jon’s self-destruction, he says in a sport where many fights come down to a coin toss and you are somehow not subject to that, the way Jon is maybe you can’t keep it together.
BB plays a clip of Tito Ortiz comparing boxing and MMA to checkers and chess, Danny disagrees and gives his take, Adam jokes about boxers playing dominos, which Danny enjoys.

They are now playing a supercut of Gretchen Carlson’s looks being brought up on the show.
Adam tells Gina this is a 0, we’re supposed to be upset because her colleague called her pretty, Danny shares a joke/sexual harassment anecdote about a waitress interaction.
