Keeping Our Beaches Hate Free with Brad Williams + The Rise of the University of Alabama’s Football Dynasty

In This Episode

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, comedian Brad Williams stops by the studio! Adam rants about a “Keep Our Beaches Hate-Free” sign he recently saw, and Brad shares his thoughts on why politically charged people are so obsessed with symbolic signage like “gun-free zones.” They also discuss the pressure to post public tributes when celebrities die, and Brad tells a wild story involving Hulk Hogan. The two compare the chaotic lifestyles of Hulk and Ozzy Osbourne before wrapping up with a broader discussion on how today’s culture reacts to controversial marketing and advertising.

Later, Jason “Mayhem” Miller stops by with some trending headlines for Adam and Brad to break down. They tackle the bizarre controversy over Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad being accused of promoting “Nazi propaganda,” react to rumors of a Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau dinner outing following her split from Orlando Bloom, and weigh in on Ozzy Osbourne’s wish for a lively funeral procession rather than a “mope-fest.”

In the final segment, actor and former Alabama Crimson Tide cornerback Caleb Castille calls in to discuss his new documentary Nothing But A Winner. The film explores the rise of the University of Alabama’s football dynasty and the leadership of legendary coach Nick Saban. Caleb and Adam talk about the intensity of college football practices, what separates good coaches from great ones, and why documentaries like this matter in preserving powerful stories.

Get it on.

Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle campaign is receiving criticism for a “jeans/genes” pun that some say echoes eugenics and white supremacy rhetoric.

Right-wing voices are celebrating the ad as a pushback against “wokeness.” pic.twitter.com/Q6LkOoAqbi
