Luke just cited the “Buzz” 100.7 Talk Radio schedule, they would play Loveline “mono” (Yuck!) and repeat the 1st hour at midnight, and so it was a 3hr block 5 nights a week.

Adam is now citing the last time he saw Luke was while taping Luke’s podcast in person in Seattle, He was in my hometown of Kirkland on May 21st and 22nd for 6 back to back shows after doing the same in SFO and another city.
A former staff member ran the board and laptop for the first 3 shows then I was tasked with running everything for night 2, it was the best and most successful thing I’ve ever done and there is only one recording of the roughest and least fun show, the first one(sigh!)
Laughs used to be a “Godfather’s Pizza” when I was a child/teen and lived in the area so it made for an interesting location to modify into a comedy club.
Adam is still trying to pull the name of the club, the audience is filling in him.

Luke is now mocking women who buy into astrology and Adam is now presenting a scenario where Luke’s logic doesn’t work, Adam is sharing his own hypothetical reaction.
Alison is now stepping in to ask her own question, she’s asking why Mike August is filming the gang as they approach the stage, Adam is explaining he’s trying capture the exuberance of the crowd.
1st Question from Janelle, it’s her birthday and she wants to know if she can get Aceman’s blessing to celebrate it.
Adam is now bringing up his trek to Vancouver for his recent live show, he’s citing the extreme drunkenness of the crowds and fans, hilarious comedy mocking Russia.
Adam is now joking about curling with Janelle and somehow magically conjures that she’s a lesbian, she’s confirming it and having some fun, good times!
Adam is now sharing how to properly ride a buzz and his own attempts to get Dr. Drew to admit that he’s vomited from drinking.
Alison is now explaining that she can also vomit with a well-placed finger much like Adam, she’s’ dispelling Luke’s assumptions as to why she’s more equipped at it.

Adam and Alison are now asking the jumping off point for the question and Luke is setting the record straight.
Alison’s News
She’s sharing an anecdote of seeing Adam in the am at the hotel and he had mistaken slices of fish for “Pancake Shards” his made up breakfast treat.
Alison is trying to get him to explain how he picked it up without realizing it, Adam has a great “anything that comes from the sea should be clearly labeled” comment that tops “Alison’s earlier fish one reply that needs to be a drop.
Her Top Story is on the most dangerous states, she’s asking the gang what they would guess before reading the list.

Adam wants to know what’s up with the newfound “Moonshine” popularity when you can just go to the liquor store.
Luke thinks it’s all fake, Adam’s actually had some from Johnny Knoxville and Adam says “when it comes to the woods, more harm than good at this point”.
“No Goods Ever came from the Woods” – Self-satisfied sniffing Adam.
Alison just whipped up a great new rhyme that tops Luke’s even, quick wit.
2nd Story is on the Breaking Bad auction held a day after the finale.
She’s now citing all the winning bids for various props, including the inscribed copy of “Leaves of Grass”.
Adam is now once again bringing up the drive to the airport with Cranston in 2009 and how the show was supposed to be filmed in California.
3rd Story is on an elderly man busted with hundreds of lbs. of cocaine.
Adam is citing how much he loves it when people do things unexpected for their advanced age.
Luke jokes there probably aren’t any doctors in Adam’s audience, kind of an ignorant comment as I personally know many, and I would bet my entire 86$ net worth that there were at least 2 in that audience, I know for a fact a dentist was!
Adam is now commenting on the hair that keeps growing as you age, ear and nose hair after some great old guy eyebrow comedy.
Adam is now saying that if he could get his own head off of himself he could do a great job, Adam is now joking about blowing himself and cutting his own hair, including flossing too!
Adam is now bringing up the two reactions all women have
- Seeing a baby, Alison is now telling him it’s totally true “No more crimping vaginas” and seeing a puppy, he’s citing how men immediately start asking the facts.
- Seeing a zit, Adam is now riffing about the dating app, where he connects women who like to pop zits with guys who desperately need assistance, a bidding/auction element too.

BB is now mocking Adam, again. Alison is saying she agrees with Ace over BB with some minor caveats.
Adam is now riffing about setting the zit popping mood and Alison needs some kind of eruption insurance, if it’s been tampered with or the seal cracked before she gets to town, she’s gonna need her money back.

Adam loves this story and is saying that this breast cancer thing is out of control, he’s citing the abundance of funds and attention the cause gets and how it’s snowballed much like the marathon running events have devolved.
Adam has a point about breast cancer only effecting half the population and Alison is trying to jump in to share that men can get breast cancer too, though it’s exceedingly rare, not a point shit, she allowed Adam to clarify his educated point, nice work A-Rose!
“Everyone who thinks I’m a huge douche, fuck you!” – Adam in reply to people who don’t like his logic, he’s saying that there isn’t an unlimited pool of time and cash to cover all causes equally.
This is sound logic that echoes Dr. Drew and Bruce, I think they would agree.
