Starting point is 00:00:01 recorded live at Corolla 1 Studios with Adam Carolla and board certified physician and addiction medicine specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky. You're listening to The Adam and Dr. Drew Show. Yeah, get it on. Get it on. Get it on. I'm going to get on. talking last show about delayed gratification, right? And about motivational states and human motivation. I've been thinking a lot of about this because the stories have been emerging about the GLP1 drugs, the ozambic-type drugs, causing apathy. Have you heard about this? They're calling it,
Starting point is 00:00:47 they're calling a Zembic personality, which is wrong. It's not what's happening. Have you heard about this? No. Okay. So much like addiction is a motivational disturbance. The motivation to use takes over all the other priorities of life shrink and pursuing the drug becomes the sole priority even when the drug is destroying your life and you hate it, you still want it, which is the brain has two systems, a wanting system and a liking system.
Starting point is 00:01:14 You can both want and like things or you can want things that you don't like, but you still want them, right? And I think every man has been in that experience if they've been in relationships sometime or another. Women probably too. But the wanting part is what gets down regulated by the GLP-1s.
Starting point is 00:01:33 So you don't want anything. You don't want to go to work. You don't want to have a sexual object. You don't want to have meals. Everything's just, and you're not depressed. There's not an emotional component to it because you still like all these things. You just don't want them. And so that just has had me thinking.
Starting point is 00:01:52 And by the way, remind me later in the show, I'll list all the problems that the GLP ones that are starting to pour in. It's common, guys. Be careful with those drugs. But this is just the latest thing that's getting headlines. Just a general lack of understanding and priority given to motivation, motivational priorities, moral compasses. You know, where is our moral compasses heading and how do we tune those up? And just generally what makes a good person and a good life, right?
Starting point is 00:02:26 We've lost track of all that stuff. Yeah, look, I don't and have never used Grubhub because I don't believe it. I don't believe in it. I don't believe it like some people have a religion and they kind of just know what they know. And I know that's bad. And I don't like it. And so I've never done it. And I don't think it leads to anything good.
Starting point is 00:02:57 I think it just leads to Well, first off, I believe it leads to a lack of appreciation For the food that shows up That's true. By the way, the preparation of the food. You know what it is? I would bet Disappointment's kind of interesting.
Starting point is 00:03:13 I'm working this theory that women love Starbucks Because they like being disappointed. Every woman I've ever known has been like they go, they starts off with the, do you have the soy milk or just the coconut? nut milk. Oh, we don't do soy. Oh. They're already out of the gate. They're little disappointed. They go, the Starbucks in Brentwood has soy milk. Yeah, we're an Encino, bitch. So sorry. Sorry. So Zari starts with, and women like, because they've got a little extra. No soy milk. Yeah, I have some in the car.
Starting point is 00:03:49 You got to go back around. I'm hiding. I've been hiding it from the customers because I'm hoarding soy milk. Is that kind of a, is they start the little, and then they go. Is that power? Like, well, in my, in my shop, we have soy milk. They like bossing other women around. And that's why they like Starbucks, because there's some bitch behind the counter. And they're making them work. Let me explain how I work. What?
Starting point is 00:04:10 Oh, no. They like bossing people around. And it sort of creates a superiority. Yeah. Well, yeah. What do you think? Who invented the train behind the wedding gown? What is a train?
Starting point is 00:04:22 It's five bitches following you holding your fucking dress. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yes. I would not be comfortable. If I should, okay, I might be wearing tails. What if I took two guys and I'll hold the tail, walk behind me, holding my tail? Extend them four feet.
Starting point is 00:04:39 As long as possible. Stand there where I can fart on you. Like, no, I would be wildly uncomfortable. Yes. Like, you see all the women who do the red carpet thing at the MetGall and stuff. They have wranglers. Yeah. They love the wranglers.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Right. Get out of the shot, Becky. you're ruining the shot by being in it. You know what I mean? Now, move my stuff around. Women like bossing, okay? And they love bossing other women. And the women who works at the start, here's, okay, let's do a recreation.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Can I interrupt for a quick before the recreation? Do you watch the show The Comeback? I have not seen it. With Lisa Kudrow. A lot of that show, Lisa Kudrow from Friends. And a lot of that show is women, sort of scurring around to kind of support her or follow her and stuff. And she does this really interesting thing.
Starting point is 00:05:33 I'm trying to understand why I like it so much, where inevitably the scurring around leads to one of these women doing a face plant. I'm like a full face plan. And it's funny as shit. And I feel bad laughing at it. But I think it's a show should be called Women Fall Down. I, okay, that's good. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Anyway. But is that part of this? Well, I was kind of in the middle of something here. or any other sitcoms? We want to explore. I thought you'd have something to say about that. I have something to say about the stuff I haven't finished saying is what I'm trying to do. We would get back to what I promise.
Starting point is 00:06:04 So go ahead. All right. So anyway, now I am, I am uncomfortable being home when the maid is working. Because I don't want to see a woman clean my toilet. Yes. Women are fine with it and may even get something out of it. I don't like it. And by the way, conceptually, I don't like it.
Starting point is 00:06:26 I'd say I don't want a maid. I don't want a poor woman cleaning my toilet. I'll clean the toilet. They want it and they like it. Okay. That Starbucks is as successful as it is because women get to go in an order around other women and then be disappointed in them. All right?
Starting point is 00:06:45 So watch, Chuck, you be a woman who works at a Starbucks and now Adam Carolla has come to the counter. Okay. go ahead. Hi, what can I get you? Medium-sized black coffee. Is that the cream over there? Yeah, okay, medium-sized black. And then I walk away.
Starting point is 00:07:03 There's no discussion. There's no, do you have, there's not, and then a disappointment, because it's always something between almond milk and coconut milk. It's coconut milk and almond milk, and they'll just be disappointed that you don't have the one. And then at some point, they get hold of the lot, they, and they sit down and they, They go, they take a sip and they go, not as good as the tea leaf one. The coffee and toast. Not as good as the one off of Roscoe.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Not as good. You know what that is? A little disappointment. And a little person, like, she didn't do as good a job on the, she got the soy. She got the ratio off. Okay. So I say, now what I'd like to do is, A, I don't want to hold anyone up in line. The place by my house.
Starting point is 00:07:51 I don't want people, anybody to notice me. I prefer to have a copy to fill it myself. the coffee and slide over. I like it when they have the cream station over there because they just hand me the cup and a leave. I don't have to deal with them and how much they're putting in. But you know what this is adjacent to? This is something I brought up a few years ago is this is adjacent to gossip.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Yes. This is gossiping about the woman that made the coffee. And one of the things we know about women and language. Well, I like to, yeah, it's a little ostracizing. They ostracize. Yes. They gossip, and in gossip, they transmit cultural information. And they're the creator of that information being transmitted verbally.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Not in the media, but verbally. Right. So women with the coffee, and what I was going to circle back to is with the Grubhub, the batting average for women with coffee at Starbucks and Grubhub, is somewhere in the same neighborhood. It's about a 50% disappointment, right? So they order the grub hub, then they open it up. They start getting in and they go,
Starting point is 00:09:03 oh, they didn't give us any honey dipping sauce. Okay, boom. I asked for the curly fries. I got to straighten, oh, now you're going to eat your meal under protest, essentially. It's still the same empty calories. Oh, he's a little, oh, they forgot. They didn't give us our, it's always a small.
Starting point is 00:09:22 So it's just something. I asked for no tomato. They put two tomatoes, right? A little bit of, got a little problem, a little beef with the beef. And then a little problem over at the Starbucks with the latte, really just disappointed. It didn't turn out how I thought it would. Okay. I've never had any disappointment because I just order medium-sized black coffee.
Starting point is 00:09:47 And then I'm in charge of kind of how much cream goes in and that'll be. And it should be the same with Grubhub. I'm so grateful that something showed up, cooked, my God. Let's eat it. Not grateful. A little disappointment. A little. Listen, Chuck, you're young.
Starting point is 00:10:03 What is the, what do you think the grubhub batting averages? Is it about 30% disappointment? Like, sometimes it can be, oh, no napkins. You know, that can be that, but it's a lot of sauce stuff, right? Yeah, I'm more of a DoorDash and Uber Eats guys. Mm-hmm. Well, okay, do you get exactly what you want every time, I guess, is the question. No, they do not. Mm-hmm. Right. And so I'm starting to think people are kind of brain dead who are making fast food or putting it together, whatever it is anyway. Like, there's going to be fuck-ups.
Starting point is 00:10:40 I found Chuck's response very fascinating. Yes, I, well, I'm not, but not surprising. Just fascinating. Yeah. Yeah. Because it speaks to the, you. ubiquity and the, you know, just how matter of fact food delivery is. Yeah. There's a problem with Grubhub. He doesn't understand that's a metaphor for food delivery. He's like, well, you should try overeats. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:02 If you have probably grubhap, just do Uber Eats. Yeah, yeah. So, hmm. Yeah, I'm talking about how dangerous it is that people start driving automobiles and I'm saying Toyota and you say, well, I'm a Nissan guy, so I don't know about your premise. But yes. It's interesting, but that's how ubiquitous this is. It's ubiquitous.
Starting point is 00:11:19 They can't even, like, see themselves. without it. See, I don't like it because I want, I feel like you need to be involved with the process. Listen, it's your, it's your holy domain to food. Right. Right. It's your, that you're very sensitive to anything. So, food and food access. Chuck, do you do the, do the latte? Do you have a, special order? No, I'm more of an iced tea guy. Okay, so I feel also fascinating. So women are much heavier into the specialty Starbucks. For sure. I literally had a woman when I was in Monterey doing a race and I stopped at the Starbucks
Starting point is 00:12:05 on the way of the track. And a woman said she had like an almond milk latte, extra hot, light, now, first of all, bitch, you like foam or not? Yeah. Only sort of, I guess is the answer. I like foam. I like foam, but not that much. And then that woman, every single time, is going to pop the lid on that and go,
Starting point is 00:12:32 hmm, I ask for light foam. A little disappointment. But later on, she'll talk to her husband. And her husband, she'll go, are we going out this weekend? And the husband goes, this UFC, this week. I told I was going to watch it over at Chuck's house and she's going to go, huh, little disappointment. Little disappointment.
Starting point is 00:12:57 But they always set it up. They set up. Well, the guy will go, I told you, I was watching the UFC fight this weekend at Chuck's house yesterday. It's this weekend? See, the extra lap. Out of almond milk? Yeah, out of almond milk. So no almond milk?
Starting point is 00:13:15 I go, what, that's all just more disappointment. Yeah. Check that. Interesting. Mm-hmm. Okay. So I think the rise of Starbucks is women, coffee, and disappointment. Starbucks is based on female disappointment syndrome.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Oh, I'm sorry. And bossing around females, lower tier. I wonder if I'm trying to think about what percentage of people behind the counter are female. It's certainly a majority, I'd say, at Starbucks. I would say it is, here's what I would say. I would say majority, but maybe 60, 63% kind of thing. I was saying 6 to 7 out of 10. But right, but the dudes are chicks.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Or they don't come to the front. They kind of stay back with the Rappuccino machine and the... The front's kind of the front. There's nobody work in the counter in the grill in the back or anything. I think you can see them all there. Yes, you can see them all. I'm going to say mostly chicks, and then 15% are chicks with dicks, basically. Just guys are soft dudes who can't work construction, a real job.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And then it's probably like 20% just what you call a dude. But you'd probably have to leave California to find that guy. So disappointment, Drew. Yeah. Yeah, and gossip. Disappointment and gossip. And those are motivational systems in an X-X brain. Yeah, yeah. And they don't have to be taking over things, but it's a bet.
Starting point is 00:15:01 It's there. Also, the other thing women like, it's something that costs 80 cents, but they charge you $11 for it, like a handbag. This is $3,700 on it. There's as much leather. It's just a baseball mid. that I can get for $39 bucks down at Big Five. It's funny of bringing that up. I watched four hours of documentaries on – because they didn't have Wi-Fi in my plane last week.
Starting point is 00:15:28 I was saying the word plane. Plain on my aircraft. And I watched like five hours, four or five hours of documentaries on luxury goods and the businesses of luxury goods. And they say that explicitly. They're like, oh, you, handbags, $300,000. Sell them for $4,000. Yeah. 300 sounds pretty price.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Well, we put a lot of, they're high quality. We put a lot into the stitching. Right, you're buying the label. Yeah. And I was like, wow, this is, it's just such an interesting thing. Right. So my dad is rolling over his grave in that country. People will say, well, what about you and your Ferraris?
Starting point is 00:16:07 But go look at a Ferrari. You can see where all the fucking money goes. And those are actually rare items, too. It was the time. Well, like, no, even, but even in just a production, whatever. Yeah. This is whatever. It's got a V-12.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Your sister's a straight-4. Yes. We're not talking about the same thing. You can see where the money goes. Yes. All right. Let's take a quick break. I'll be right back after this.

Starting point is 00:18:13 So I was still leaning into this notion about motivation and morality and how none of these things are discussed anymore. I was reading, I think a Jonathan Haidt book about this made me think about it. And that morality is sort of based in our primitive instincts. It's adjacent to disgust. And then we build, you know, moral disciplines on that or moral thinking. And most people never get past what's fair and what's not, which is sort of the lowest order of moral thinking. And we just don't make an issue of it anymore. It's just the things that are really important, like seems like they're not on the table.
Starting point is 00:18:51 And I hear young men hunger for that kind of stuff. They sort of put it under the kind of heading of spirituality. I need spiritual guidance. They're really wanting to know how to lead a good life. I agree with you that there seems to be some sort of disconnect. but I always think of it more in terms of a sort of pragmatic disconnect and it's a sort of tangible and it's a chick think but it's a sort of pragmatic and tangible.
Starting point is 00:19:26 I mean, I told you all those years ago and now we're into the late 90s we're coming up on 30 years of me basically saying I don't know what the keep the music or bring the music into schools, kids need music. They need shop class. They need a skill. They need to be able to put stuff together. I was yelling about this 30 years ago. I was like, they need music. It's like, they don't need music. They don't need music. They can have music. They don't need. No one needs music, but you do need,
Starting point is 00:19:59 you know, saying, I need desserts. Like, you don't need dessert. You need sustenance. And then you may have dessert if time permits or we having a budget for it, but you don't, you don't need music. And there was like a lot of big push about how it helps kids and it helps them learn and it helps them listen and it does, raises all boats or something. I don't know what the fuck it was. And I kept saying, these kids don't fucking know anything that can't fix anything. They can't use their hands. They can't, they don't have logic. And everyone's like, well, shut up. They need music. And that's kind of a, that's kind of the new. That's where we started. Now we're into some zone where all the practical, pragmatic, sort of basic shit is gone.
Starting point is 00:20:47 And I mean, I'm not talking about shop class. I'm just talking about homeless people. You know what I mean? Like, there's just piles and piles of humanity sleeping in the wash and in the gutter and the sewer. And we're just going, you know, we need programs for the homes. I have something called safe at home. And what that is is I take old apartment buildings and I can, them into bridge homes.
Starting point is 00:21:10 The bridge home is a, we don't like halfway house. We call it a bridge home. You know, it's like, we need all that. It's like, you guys got nothing. You're talking about music. I'm talking about shop glass because people got to build shit once they get out of high school. Not all of them are going to college. And everyone's like, oh, shut up.
Starting point is 00:21:28 We like our music class. Well, I think not everyone's going to college is now a new move. I think that is happening. Right. The trades are back. people are realizing what a waste money college is. No, I get it. I get, but in the general lack of basic, it's a general lack of basic, almost mechanical business.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Life is much more mechanical than we want to give it credit for. It's super mechanical. It's like get up, work, sweat, you know, calories in, calories expended. work, you know, time, sleep. Like, it's really, at the end of the day, it's, you know, it's really mechanical. You get up, you Uber to the airport, you take the airplane, you go to the thing, you get in the vehicle, you go to the hotel that was built like a... It's sequential.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Sequential. It's sequential, but it's like it's mechanical and sequential, you know, the plumbing and the electricity and stuff. And we've gone into some theory world. And as we go into the world of theory, then we get into the world. of artistic renderings, and now we have drawings of what we'd like our society to look like, but we don't have our that society. There was a French philosopher called Baudreard in the 90s.
Starting point is 00:22:49 It was very popular. He talked about simulacra. Do you know what that is? That's a formula for French kids instead of breast milk. Am I right? Yes. How'd you know? I know everything.
Starting point is 00:23:04 I was raised on simulacra. In everything... Yes, it's a simulation. Exactly. He was sort of saying the whole world... Of breast milk. Thank you. That's the ultimate version of it.
Starting point is 00:23:16 But the shortest hand version I can give of his thing is everything has become Disneyland. Yes. We'd rather be in Disneyland that actually go to the Alps. We'd rather ride the Matterhorn and go to the Alps. Yeah, we're in Otopia or whatever. Yeah. Is it Autopia? Autopia.
Starting point is 00:23:34 We're an Autopia. We're in Autopia. We're in a car. They have a steering wheel. It's attached to a carriage bolt that just turns in a circle. And we're not steering the car. But we don't build the car without a fake steering wheel. Safe, safe.
Starting point is 00:23:49 Give you something. Yeah, but we have to think that we're doing something in this car. So we just get dragged around in a circle. Yes. It's kind of weird. Well, that is that Simulac. Raw. Simulacra is the same as the satiation.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Interesting. And the simulation is the same thing. Yeah. And representing is the same thing. Right. None of this is happening. You've got nothing done. You've got nothing done at all.
Starting point is 00:24:23 But you want to talk about it and simulate it and talk about it. And then that's where they stand up and fight stuff comes from. You have bunches of people thinking they're doing something. when really they're just pretty much getting fat and nothing's getting done. God, that's interesting. It really is fascinating to me that it all kind of fits together that way. The question in my mind is, now what? You know, it's back.
Starting point is 00:24:48 You got to get the hell out of Disneyland and, you know, change it tire. Well, that's where the octagon's come in. Yeah, yeah. But also at a certain point, the homeless guy ends up on your porch or you get stabbed on the train or something like that. then you go, what the fuck is going on around here? By the way, everybody who's running for mayor or city council or anything in Los Angeles is running on a platform of what the fuck's going on around here, which is, well, you
Starting point is 00:25:19 is what's going on. You're running for your second term as mayor, not your first term. And then you're all in the city council before that. So you, of all people, should know what the fuck is going on around here. But one of the front runners for the mayor's office, and I brought it up multiple times, but you really have to think about this. In terms of the Simulacca, getting rid of the no-you-turn sign in Gaytown is priority one. priority two is yelling at Toyota for catalytic converters, and then priority three is tearing down a beloved tree house that the neighborhood kids love. Okay, all a simulation, right? That's not
Starting point is 00:26:07 anything to do with anything. And his book was called Simulacra and Simulation. Oh, really? Yeah. Yes. And it should be insatiation because when she's done taking down the gay U-turn sign, And she walks back, she goes back to her office and feels like I got a lot done today. We didn't get anything done today. Which I've told you is a feminine thing, Drew, and I see it all the time. I'm sorry, I'm reading a little bit about what this guy was saying. And let's see, there's a final stage of it, pure simulacra, no relationship to any reality whatsoever. Signs merely reflect other signs.
Starting point is 00:26:47 We're kind of there. You know what? Here's the theory. regime of total equivalency, where cultural products need no longer even pretend to be real in a naive sense. I would bet, would you go down on, would you be with me on this theory? Yeah. You ready? Yes.
Starting point is 00:27:10 I think women talk about exercise and dieting 73% more than men talk about 73% more than men talk about. it who do the same amount of it. It's simulation. Yes. It's a simulation. And the simulation feels like you did it because it's a simulation. Simulation cessation, right? So now we've talked about joining a gym.
Starting point is 00:27:38 We talked about, you know, tomorrow I... I want to talk to Camille Paglia. Tomorrow I fast. Tomorrow I fast. Yeah. Oh, the Camille Paglia thing, you sent me, Andrew, over the weekend, by the way, I didn't have sound on. Oh, it's good.
Starting point is 00:27:52 It's been making the rounds. That's from like 25 years ago. About art. I think you sent it to me. About great artists. Why isn't there a female Michelangelo? Right. It's really what she was talking about.
Starting point is 00:28:02 She is so full of wisdom. I'm telling you, I've been dying to interview her. She just won't come out of hiding right now. And one of the great interviews of she was conducted by Jordan Peterson. Two of them together was a really interesting thing. But you want to listen to a little bit of this thing? Because she's worthy of our time. I'm not saying we have it.
Starting point is 00:28:22 right here or there it is. There it is. All right. Yeah. I didn't want to put the pressure on Andrew because he's on the spectrum. Here we go. Let me let me, can I describe Camille Paglia? Camille Pagli was actually a, she goes under literary criticism. She wrote a book called Sexual Personae in like the 80s that became a classic. Her fundamental theory was that there's sort of two competing forces in art. One is Dionysian, the other is Apollonian. And she gets into it a little bit here, and she starts ultimately thinking of it in terms of male-female. And that culturally, these male-female roles and things have evolved for reasons, and there's motivational systems she talks about in the female and in the male that reinforce
Starting point is 00:29:05 these things. Anyway, here we go. The explanation for why are there no great women artists, okay, the feminist explanation always is, women have been held back. Soon we'll have the great female McElancho, soon will have the female Leonardo and so on. And I'm saying, okay, all right, My argument, sexual persona, okay, is that, okay, women don't need art, okay, and the mania of art making to exist. There are important women artists, okay, but there, I- Pause it for a second. I'm going to tell you all the time ago, how come men are in the, you know, working on the skyscrapers and women are, and everybody's go, because that's the way it is. I would say that's the way it is. There's nobody holding anyone back from anything that's just the way it is.
Starting point is 00:29:48 She goes one step further as said it's the way they need to be. Yes, that's the way it is. All right. Any compulsive, obsessive, driven women, okay, who have to defend and define their own identities, okay? By creating something else, an object, okay? Most women I know are perfectly content to live, okay? They see reality for what it is, okay? And they are centered in reality.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Stop again. Except you would argue that there's a little bit of simulation. Hilt into that, and that's what makes, that's what satisfies and satiates, but they're okay in it as it is without changing it. Yes. Okay, here we go. Intent to live, okay? They see reality for what it is, okay?
Starting point is 00:30:34 And they are centered in reality. They have their own sense of identity from the moment they menstruate, they know they're women, okay? But men are driven. Men don't know, they have to define themselves constantly, okay, and so on. They're driven, the hormone, makes them like crazy. and so they're searching for this. So when I look at male history,
Starting point is 00:30:51 you know, I don't see. I don't see what most gender studies people see, which is, you know, male oppression and female victimage. That's not what I see, okay? Now, what I see is like wave after wave of men, desperate, okay, to create their own identity, pushing out, okay, dying.
Starting point is 00:31:08 You know, they're the one, they're like mermodons, they're pushing, pushing human civilization out. All right. So, yeah, there it is. She said it 30 years ago, whatever that was. Find out when that was, Chuck Rand, if you can't. I think it was a long time ago because she's considerably older now. She has always spit wisdom.
Starting point is 00:31:25 Yes. And she is... Like me. Yeah. Same wisdom. Same stuff. And she was... Well, I would always say to people, I don't know why you guys want to argue with what is.
Starting point is 00:31:37 Well, having come from academia, that's part of the thing. That's just what they do. I get it. And her thing was she back in the 90s really... was starting to attack the post-structuralist, which is where all the bullshit came from. That's where truth ceased to exist. That's where reality ceased to exist. And I'm here saying, I don't know if you and I talked about this yesterday on the phone or not, but the pursuit of the truth is something that needs to be restored. And you would put in the same category as, you know,
Starting point is 00:32:08 using your hands and building. That's true. It's in reality, being in reality. And I would go a little further and say that just the pursuit of the truth in all things, that should be our fundamental task. Yes. Well, the pursuit of truth and then kind of the pursuit of reality. That's truth. Right. And it is always, it saddens me to see so many men get sucked into a false narrative. and I used to be... Why would they do that? Just think about it. What's the one motivation
Starting point is 00:32:49 that would make them do that from the beginning? Well, listen, I know it's sex is what you're saying. But what I'm saying is, is it becomes a sort of their sideism and then they start getting into this, you know, you know, they have these themes. It's like, Trump goes stumbling into Iran, no plan, no agenda, no thoughts, no goals.
Starting point is 00:33:12 No goals. He just goes bum stumbling in there. Uh, the ICE, well, the rogue agency, they don't have any rules. They're just disappearing people like, breaking into houses. Breaking into houses, terrorizing communities. Like, I, okay, you guys, I don't know what, what it is. Do you think that? Do you think that's Trump?
Starting point is 00:33:30 By the way, Trump has stated his goals in terms of Iran 700,000 times into a fucking microphone. Do you not, do you not have access to the internet? Yeah. Do you have a phone? Is it a smartphone? Can you find Trump's saying? Now, you can say, now here's what I'm saying, Drew.
Starting point is 00:33:52 You can say Trump's getting us into a war that I disagree with. And then you can also say, I understand why we have immigration, customs, enforcement, but I don't like the way they're conducting themselves. You can say that. but what you can't say is you have a rogue organization with mass guys and unmarked vans blowing into town and terrorizing communities. I'm just laughing at the guy, the gay guy where you had talking to the girl, the woman through the window, the gay ICE agent talking through the woman in her car. It was the greatest video. To me, that will be, I hope that is how we remember this time.
Starting point is 00:34:31 But the guy going, well, but also, it's so funny because they go, ICE is coming into these communities and terrorizing our indigenous. community or the Latinos or whatever it is, all the footage I see is middle-aged fat white people fighting ice. I don't see ice doing anything to the community. The community is middle-aged white chicks fighting with ice. Who are they terrorizing? The chicks that are fighting them? Right. Jesus Christ. 1990s of Camille Paglia. So 30. 20s. By the way. All right. We'll take one last quick break. Be right back after this. This is Adam Carolla from the Adam Carolla show. If you care about soccer, you care about moments. And the road to the 2006 World Cup starts here this week. As test matches, get on their way as we host some of the

Starting point is 00:36:12 The game starts here. All right. So, Drew. Yeah. 35 years ago, that's amazing to me. She was spewing. Well, you were spewing it too, to be fair. You hadn't. I wasn't saying it exactly how she was saying it. I was saying, because I grew up with my mom, and my mom would say, well, if you give a girl
Starting point is 00:36:36 a pop gun, give a boy a dolly, and I would keep. keep saying, but how did this all begin? You know what I mean? Compare Chmuea Pagia to Gavin Newsom's wife. Right? Oh, my God. Right? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Wow. Now, that's a good point. Gavin Newsom's wife is the opposite because she thinks everything is some sort of patriarchy. But it's also kind of an interesting thing. It's the folks that are constantly talking about the, she's talking about the patriarchy in California of all places. It seems very female dominant in California, but also this thing of the plan.
Starting point is 00:37:20 You know what I mean? Trump wants to come in here. He wants to silence minorities. He wants to round up blacks. He wants women to be subjugated. Like, that's a lot of plan for a guy. By the way, it's funny. That's what he wants because everything seems to be
Starting point is 00:37:38 something about Cuba. or Iran or something like that or buying Greenland. What does he want from your standpoint? What do you think he wants? He wants to go down is the guy who fixed the most shit. Yeah, he wants to go to as a great president that help people. Nobody fixed before him. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:37:56 That's what he wants. That's it. Hey, could you come up with, I was revisiting your Bert Reynolds tape the other day. Mm-hmm. With a friend of mine, I insisted he watched it. He died laughing. Yes. We've done zero of those, by the way, since I did it.
Starting point is 00:38:12 If Jimmy Kimmel worked here, 26, there'd be 129 of those. Because he would have come in and went, I got a new one today. We need some more of those. But those days are gone, Drew. But I'm wondering if there's a Bert Reynolds version, not necessarily with Bert. Don't take me literally of Gavin Newsom's wife, like where you put some character, put her as somebody else, and it makes it that much more funny. Well, that would mean we would have to think about the Burt Reynolds thing. Yes.
Starting point is 00:38:43 Yes. We? I'm thinking about it right now. I'll do it here with you. All right. Well, now we can hand that off. We can tell Chuck to tell Joey to do the Burt Reynolds thing. But not Burt.
Starting point is 00:38:59 Not Burt. Do a Burt conversion of Gavin Newsom's wife. Hold on. What do you mean but not Burt? No, I'd like to see, so what I'm saying is, I don't want to see Bert Reynolds. Well, if you think that'd be funny, then fine, that's it. What do you say? I'm saying, is there another character that we could put on top of Gavin Newsom's wife that's a female?
Starting point is 00:39:22 Oh. That gives it the Bert Reynolds conversion that makes it funnier. Why would it want to be a female? I don't know. Because I'm not a comedian. It's obvious, right? Yeah, no. So Bert would be fine with me.
Starting point is 00:39:34 I just don't want to leave it, you know, required to be Bert. I think the concept is how insane the ideas sound through the voice of Burt Reynolds. Okay. Then I want to see Burt Reynolds. Because if it's a female, look, if it's Roseanne Barr, that's funny. Yeah. But first off, remember AI, there's only certain voices available. Oh, interesting. But Bert Reynolds works because he is the patriarchy.
Starting point is 00:40:12 And he's kind of the reason I did the Bert Reynolds and the made up AI NPR female, I made me. Well, I thought that was the important conversion. The important conversion was me interviewing. Well, now we got to play one of them. Sorry. Well, good. That makes me happy. But please turn that into a Bert Reynolds then to give the first partner, Zeeble,
Starting point is 00:40:35 Newsom when she speaks truth to power as Bert Reynolds. All right. Well, don't let Joey do the conversion. We got to play one of the old ones then so people know, or at least, their memory is refreshed. It's worth visiting. And that was me talking to Newsome, and Newsom was Bert Reynolds, and I was an NPR reporter. And then... Wondering why...
Starting point is 00:41:00 Because of that, Gavin Newsom sounds like an insane person. And you sound like reasonable because it's not you. Because it's not me. I sound reasonable. I'm also kind of attracted, too. I mean, if you... Yeah, it was a little weird. It freaked me out of it.
Starting point is 00:41:17 If you think about it. No, no, I thought about it. Yeah. So we'll let those guys pull that up in the computer somewhere and we'll play that. When did we do that? When did you do that? It was probably four months ago and I announced we should do these all the time. No, but we don't.
Starting point is 00:41:37 All right, here it is. Half of African Americans in the state of California, roughly half of Latino families have no access to a checking account or an ATM, things we take for granted. They don't have a checking account. What's wrong with them? Well, because they don't have the resources to sock those things away. Why do we have them?
Starting point is 00:41:57 A lot of different reasons, but roughly half those families don't. Why do Armenians have them? But where they end up is a check-cashing. But I want to know why those groups? Why do those two groups not have access? Just happens to be that we can talk about... Are they flawed? No, they're hardly flawed, but they're struggling. Genetically flawed?
Starting point is 00:42:15 Hardly. Absolutely not. Do Asians have this problem? I mean, a lot of communities have problems. A lot of whites have these problems. So it's not just black and Hispanic? No, but it... Well, why did you bring up black and Hispanic? Because the magnitude is ominous.
Starting point is 00:42:29 But why so many of them? It just happens to be just the magnitude... That's the way God planned it? Not at all. Well, what happened to them? There are a lot of issues and communities are struggling. Why are they struggling? A lot of different reasons.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Hispanics have been here, blacks have been here longer than we have been here. Well, we can surmiles. What about Asians? They were put in an intermary. He said there's a lot of communities and a lot of people are struggling. Yeah. That's his plan for fixing this? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:54 There's tons of, so it's like, it's me going, like you go, we have a problem with the sewage leak. And I go, there's lots of stuff and lots of junk out there. And then that's that? There's a lot of communities, a lot of problems. A lot of leaky sewers. Well, he brought up checking accounts. Yeah. He's just going to go on for 10 minutes to tell me about a lot of stuff being that way.
Starting point is 00:43:18 Because that's the way. They're so used to just getting away. That's the way it is. And by the way, the thing that's insane about stories, he brought up the problem. How long ago was this? The 12 years ago. Like 13 years ago. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:30 I mean, he also talked about the homeless problem. Yeah, go back like 20. seconds just because it's funny to hear them go. Lots of communities, lots of problems with stuff. By the way, she, this woman is the reason guys adopt chick thing. That's right. Look at her. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Guys are, oh yeah, she's right. She's right. Yeah, yeah. Right. These problems. So it's not just black and Hispanic. No, but it. Well, why did you bring up black and Hispanic? Because the magnitude is ominous. But why so many of them? It just happens to be just the magnitude. That's the way God planned it? Not at all. Well, what happened to them? There are a lot of issues and
Starting point is 00:44:03 communities are struggling. Why are they struggling? A lot of different reasons. Hispanics have been here, blacks have been here longer than we have been here. Well, we can we can surmise. What about Asians? They were put in internment camps. Yeah, we in fact, it all initiated out of San Francisco. The Chinese Exclusion Act came out of progressive San Francisco. So are they at the check cashing places? A lot of Asians certainly do. Oh, so why don't you include them? Because then the only reason why is the magnitude of the problem. But there's no way to figure out how that happened. We could talk about, You know what I'm dealing with? I don't want to have a sociological debate.
Starting point is 00:44:37 Sure. You know what I'm dealing with? Why would you want to do that? Because... Yeah, it goes. Keeps going to be... A person from the Times wouldn't write good things about you if you did that. No, that's not the case.
Starting point is 00:44:46 Because I want to deal with reality. You want to deal with reality? I can tell you what reality is. People are struggling. People are suffering. I want to deal with the problems in a pragmatic way. Why are they struggling and why are they suffering? We can hold hands and surmise about all these other reasons.
Starting point is 00:45:03 I don't want to do that. I want to know why they're struggling. Why are they struggling? A lot of folks are struggling because they can't find jobs. Why blacks and Hispanics? Across the board, all socioeconomics. So everybody is struggling? Everybody is struggling.
Starting point is 00:45:17 So Asians are suffering just as much as blacks? The face of welfare is not an African American family. Oh, so it's Asian, Jewish, it's all of them? Caucasian. Okay, we're all struggling. A lot of folks are struggling. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:31 Now look. If you don't understand that that human being has a problem, then you have a problem. If you cannot discern that Bert Reynolds sounds like an insane person there. That's on you. There's something wrong with people. They voted for this guy. That guy. That's what he says.
Starting point is 00:45:55 And a problem that he brought up. So theoretically, that's something he's thinking about. I don't want to hear her as her. I want to hear her as Newt Burt Reynolds. Not today. Well, I don't know. He can do Burt Reynolds pretty fast. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:46:11 Is this going to be Burt Reynolds? I don't know. I don't see Bert Reynolds' face. But you're not going to see. That takes a while. Okay. I don't know. Hi, everyone.
Starting point is 00:46:19 That didn't sound like Burt Reynolds. I want to hear what it sounds like, though. I just wanted to take a minute to check in. What we are seeing right now from the war to extreme wealth inequality to immigrant families being torn apart to the extremely hateful and divisive rhetoric online should have us all worried. And if there's one thing about me, it's that when I witness something that is unjust or wrong towards women, children, and families, I cannot stay silent. My entire life's work has surrounded the notion that we need more human decency in this world.
Starting point is 00:46:51 And the only way we get there is through kindness, through courage, and through speaking truth to power, through standing up for women, for children, for our common humanity. She's in power, right? My first documentary unveiled how the patriarch, vis-a-vis the media, was holding women in leadership back. My second, looked at the boy crisis, in America and how our culture
Starting point is 00:47:10 was failing our boys and men. Giving the dumb barbies. Media has played a huge role in devaluing the feminine and uplifting the masculine, and not always the better elements of either, because there's power and beauty and both. But the real question is, look,
Starting point is 00:47:28 I told everyone, We've entered some sort of circle talking simulacra. And I told everyone it's bullshit and it's chick think and knock it to fuck off because it causes problems because it's satiating and we don't get anything done. And everything gets worse, by the way. The homeless problem gets worse. The schooling gets worse. The roads get where everything gets worse because you guys are literally wearing VR goggles now and walking through some sort of paradise. except for your VR goggles are showing paradise, but you're stepping over hobos and potholes.
Starting point is 00:48:02 And let me go back to the Grubhub sort of model, which is GLP-1s, or similar to that Grubhub model, of the non-hard work. And I said I would point out the adverse events we're seeing. We're seeing gallbladder disease, which is primarily just from the rapid weight loss. We are seeing sarcopenia muscle loss. That's the ozambic face where you're losing muscle everywhere. and that is one of the muscles, one of the most important ingredients in healthy aging. We lose muscle, you're in big trouble, bone demineralization, osteoporosis, men and women, bowel obstruction. And I'm with the opinion that we're going to hear about these massive clotting in the venous system that's causing necrosis and death very quick.
Starting point is 00:48:46 They've seen several deaths from GLP1. Gastroporesis, which is paralysis of the stomach and upper bowel, extremely painful, extremely unpleasant, nausea chronically, and then this apathy syndrome, where motivation generally is being down, sort of suppressed. And so people still like things that they used to like. They just don't want them anymore. And let's not forget the psychology of realizing that you don't have enough self-discipline to do it the way Grandpa did it.
Starting point is 00:49:17 And you know it. And you can lie to everyone about whether you're on them or not, but you will know. This is the growth. All right. All right. Me, Friday, Saturday, May 8th and 9th, Las Vegas over Kimmel's Club, four shows. Then get back Thursday, Covina. Laugh Factory, doing a live pod there. And then we got Friday, May 15th, Vicelya, Box Theater, and Saturday 16th, Modesto, California State Theater. And go to Amcrow.com for all the live shows. What do you go?

Oh, lots of selections at the merch store now. Including a controversial hit.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Oh, what's that? It says not. Oh, God damn it. I'm trying to do it. Well, what is it with you and the coasters? I've got a huge pile of coasters. You've been clanking around your cup this. whole day.
Starting point is 00:50:24 I was using this for my coaster. I know, but that makes noise. I did not realize that. Sorry. Okay. All right. Go to the merch store. Check out the bangers over there.
Starting point is 00:50:34 We'll see if we can work this Jennifer Newsome thing in. Drew's right. I just forgot about. Bert is a hit in my mind. It's a really important. He's important. I work weekends. You what?
Starting point is 00:50:50 I work weekends. I cannot stand top of every fucking. thing all the time. I'm tempted to do it myself. They show me. Okay, true. There's one thing I know about you. The chances of these guys doing are much higher than chances of you doing yourself.
Starting point is 00:51:01 No, I'd actually like to know how to do it. You're not going to do it. You will not do it. All right. But you could. Okay. But you're not. But you could.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Right. You should. But you know. You said that about me doing stand-up and then I did it. You went too long. You did too much. It was good. Too much.
Starting point is 00:51:16 But you did 22 fucking minutes. All right. So until next time, I'm crow with Dr. Say it. I'm over deliver. Wow. Pluto TV has thousands of free movies and TV shows. We're coming at you with everything we got.
