Main Theme & Episode Overview

In this lively episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam sits down with comedian and political commentator Arynne Wexler for a compelling conversation that spans her journey from Wall Street and the Ivy League to viral conservative comedy. Together, they examine shifts in political identity, why liberals are gravitating to the right, challenges in modern comedy, Jewish voting patterns, economic misconceptions, and the cultural shifts impacting both left and right in America. Plus, they dive into the controversial optics of politicians (especially in California), the “victim” narrative, media bias, and the ever-turbulent state of U.S. cultural politics.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Arynne Wexler: From Wharton to Stand-Up

• Educational Background
  • Arynne attended the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School. Adam jokes about not being familiar with U. Penn growing up in North Hollywood but acknowledges the prestige.
    • “Which is an Ivy League school, right?” — Adam (03:18)
• Career Trajectory
  • Started in investment banking at Goldman Sachs, then worked in tech/AI, before switching to stand-up comedy about 6 months ago.
    • “I only started doing standup six months ago… but I was always doing funny videos on Instagram.” — Arynne (08:46)
  • She broke into comedy by being herself—controversial, funny, and Republican—long before “Republican” became “a dirty word.”
• Family & Peer Perception
  • While some thought her career switch was bold or even crazy, her parents support her.

2. The Challenge and Drive of Comedy

• Work Ethic in Comedy
  • Adam recounts his own grind early in radio, making the point that comedy (and related media) require relentless hustle—contrary to popular belief.
    • “You gotta kind of want to do that if you do stand up.” — Adam (07:23)
• Motivation
  • Both agree: if you don’t love to talk, make people laugh, and communicate, comedy isn’t for you.
    • “I love making people laugh. That’s what I’m always going for.” — Arynne (12:33)

3. The Jewish Vote: Why Do Most Jews Lean Left?

• Cultural & Political Paradox
  • Adam and Arynne discuss how Jewish people often live conservative lives but vote left, referencing Dennis Prager’s quip, “They don’t preach what they practice.”
    • Adam’s Theory: Many Jews are motivated by a desire to “blend in” and avoid persecution—a legacy of historical trauma. Also, living and working in LA culture nudges them left.
      • “They just want to blend in and be down with whatever the popular cause is… especially in LA.” — Adam (15:30)
    • Arynne’s Perspective: Distinguishes between religious Jews (overwhelmingly right-wing) and secular Jews (“GINOs”—Jews in name only), who are far more likely to align with progressive causes—often until recent, harsh wake-up calls.
      • “Those are the same Jews that also think oh, I’ll just assimilate, I’ll just not be Jewish…” — Arynne (18:52)
• Other Theories
  • Why tension between Black and Jewish communities? Adam posits it’s about conflicting historical narratives of oppression: “There’s nothing that gets a reaction more than shame...” — Adam (20:00)

4. Liberal Politics & Victimhood Narratives

• Inequality, Policy, and Media Messaging
  • Adam skewers the left’s focus on “impact on Black and brown” communities, questioning why policy doesn’t address the root causes (like why rent or gas ‘impacts’ some more than others).
    • “Should we be talking about the price of rent, or should we ask why it impacts you more?” — Adam (22:10)
  • Harsher critique for politicians like Gavin Newsom, who are adept at spinning empathy and social justice as political theater, but rarely solve core problems.
    • “He’s a sociopathic idiot… he brings up a problem and then… has no solutions for it.” — Adam (28:26)
    • “He’s pretending to be a good person and hurting a lot of people” — Arynne (30:07)

5. Culture Wars & Media

• Why Liberals Are Turning Right
  • 2024-2026 saw more liberals, especially women, move right, often due to radical cultural shifts (e.g., “pronoun” battles, gender ideology in schools, crime).
    • “More people will sit at home… because things are better than they were before…” — Arynne (34:38)
• Political ‘Blackmail’ and Social Fatigue
  • “The left literally has tantrums when the right wins…sometimes people just give in to avoid the drama.” — Adam (38:33)
  • The "silent majority vs. loud minority" myth: Arynne argues the right shouldn’t assume majority status equals moral rightness, and warns conservatives need to remain culturally relevant and “cool.”
• Comedy's Place in Polarized America
  • The left still dominates cultural institutions (TV, comedy, arts), because conservatives historically didn’t participate in those arenas—it’s about culture as much as politics.
    • "Where are all the funny Republican comedians? They didn't start doing it for a long time..." — Adam (42:17)
  • Arynne points out: true comedy is “the truth with good timing,” and that’s why “woke” late night shows fail with broad audiences.

6. Economics, Incentives & Government Overreach

• Adam’s Rant on Economics
  • “Can we just agree on certain things? Like people need incentive to leave the house. It’s like diet and exercise.”
  • Cynicism about wealth redistribution: Adam and Arynne pile on Elizabeth Warren’s viral “M&M” visual for a wealth tax, mocking the superficiality and false promise of redistribution.
    • “We could do all this with Elon's money…No, you couldn't do shit, bitch. You're giving it to Somalis.” — Adam (59:28)
  • Core argument: Government rarely delivers promised results—contrast that to private enterprise leaders (like Musk).
    • “I'm not really formally against people giving you money. I'm against them giving you money, you squandering the money, and then complaining you're not getting enough money.” — Adam (60:18)
  • The myth of “free” stuff: When politicians say “free,” remember nothing is truly free, and more spending per student hasn’t led to better results.

7. The Optics of Elites & The “Wrong Place, Wrong Time” Narrative

• California Leadership in the Crosshairs
  • Critiques of Gavin Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom—the “optics of elite liberal empathy” (e.g., French Laundry scandal, comparing losing a sister in a golf cart accident to inner-city crime tragedies).
    • “That is the whitest thing ever—killed by a golf cart…” — Adam (89:58)
    • “She would let all of them out. They just made a mistake…” — Adam (91:59)
• Victim-Blaming on the Left
  • The left once decried blaming victims (“slut march”/Amber Rose) but now often shift blame back onto crime victims, especially in sanctuary cities with high-profile violent crime by undocumented immigrants.

8. Media & Institutional Bias

• 'Getting Trump' and Journalistic Integrity
  • Former Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush claims ABC News ran a 75-person Trump opposition department — underscoring the media’s deep bias.
    • “They had a division dedicated…to basically getting him.” — Billy Bush (101:41)
• The NPR Whistleblower
  • Even public radio insiders now acknowledge the news tilt, but the impact on the broader public is slower to catch up—a frustration for Adam and his co-hosts.

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• Arynne on Changing Sides: “There are so many liberals who have started to come to the right, especially in 2024.”
• Adam on Left Cultural Dominance: “They don’t…like, they got like a 75 year head start, you know what I mean?”
• Adam on Taxation/Redistribution: “Government is the only place that goes the wrong direction percentage-wise…everyone else should get a break as you go up.”
• Arynne on Economic Assumptions: “Assume the consumer is rational…that drove me nuts…people are deeply irrational.”
• Adam on Comedy and Truth: “Comedy is just the truth with good timing. If you’re not saying the truth, it’s not funny.”
• Adam on Political Rhetoric: “It’s always gonna work out. Except it never does.”

[Show Announcer]

From Corolla One studios in Glendale, California, this is the Adam Carolla Show. Adam's guest today, comedian Aaron Wexler. Plus the news with Alicia Crouse. And now, Adam Carolla.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, get it on. Got to get on the trails. We get a man. Get it on. Thanks for tuning in. Thanks for telling a friend. Comedian, political commentator Aaron Wexler's joining me. She's got dates, she's touring, doing standup, and you can go to her website. Aaron wexler.com. it's a R, Y, N, N, E. Unusual spelling for Aaron and then Wexler. Pretty easy. We X. Good. See you.

[Arynne Wexler]

Great to see you, Adam. Thanks for having me.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. So you start off. I hear you went to University of Pennsylvania.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes, sir.

[Adam Carolla]

Which is an Ivy League school, right?

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah. But don't hold it against me. No one's perfect.

[Adam Carolla]

I remember playing the University of Pennsylvania with Dr. Drew a million years ago, and he was very sick for the weekend of travel and, like, throwing up and had a fever and everything and sort of had to drag him out on stage. But I rem From North Hollywood. Ivy League to me was always, you know, was Harvard and Brown and, like, I knew about those places, but Yale. But I didn't. I didn't know U. Penn. It didn't. It could somehow gets. I mean, I'm from North Hollywood. I don't know anything. But that's a prestigious school.

[Arynne Wexler]

It is. A lot of people also think it's Penn State. They'll tell. They'll talk to me about football. I'm like, no, not that. Penn.

[Adam Carolla]

Right.

[Arynne Wexler]

And I. I did go to Wharton undergrad. And you know who also went there?

[Adam Carolla]

See, that person's name would be Kamala Harris.

[Arynne Wexler]

No, it would be Donald Trump.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, that's right. She worked at McDonald's in Canada. That's right. He went to Wharton.

[Arynne Wexler]

What I love, though, is the president of Penn, when I was there, was a very liberal woman named Amy Gutman.

[Adam Carolla]

What?

[Arynne Wexler]

And she actually wound up becoming ambassador to Germany under Biden. And she really thought Hillary was going to win. And she always wanted Pen to be like Harvard, Yale, Princeton, where they had all these presidents that they could point to. And then we finally got a president from Penn and it was Donald Trump, and so they wouldn't acknowledge it.

[Adam Carolla]

Now, Wharton is Harvard, right? Or is that Penn, too?

[Arynne Wexler]

No, it's Penn. I went to Wharton.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, Wharton. Yeah, you did Penn. And Wharton is Penn, too?

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes, it's part of Penn.

[Adam Carolla]

Okay. I didn't. For some reason, I thought it was Harvard, but it was probably just Ivy League. Someone said. And then I did my stupid thing.

[Arynne Wexler]

The people you see on Wall Street.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. So it's good to have that background. You must have been a good student. And your parents probably devastated now, but had high hopes for you at some point.

[Arynne Wexler]

No, no, they're happy with what I'm doing now.

[Adam Carolla]

They are?

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, good.

[Arynne Wexler]

But a lot of people thought I was very crazy to do this path when I first started because I first out of school, I worked At a boutique investment bank named Goldman Sachs.

[Adam Carolla]

Never heard of it.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah. And then from there I worked in tech for. For a while I worked in AI before people knew what AI was. And. But I've always. I was always like this. I was always known in tech and finance in college. I was always the crazy, controversial, funny Republican girl. We used to say Republican before it became a dirty word.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes. Now it's alt, right? Something, something. Yeah, yeah. You know, it's funny. It takes a lot of work to do comedy. I kind of realize there's a work ethic issue now. You don't have that problem because you're a good student and everything. Comedians are traditionally bad students, so they have a weak work ethic. But I was driving here and I was just listening to Sirius Satellite Radio. And it was on the 101 Stern 2nd Station. And they play all these flashbacks. They just play reruns of old stuff randomly, I guess. I just tuned it in and it was from 2002, and it was Ms. Howard Stern Competition in Las Vegas. And I was listening to me from 2002 in Las Vegas for the Stern show. And then I had this flashback where I was like, what is it? I remember that day. I remember how it went. So I was working at night doing a radio show called loveline from 10 to midnight every night. It was a syndicated show. And then I was working during the day. I would have been working on the man show, but Stern called and he said, we're doing Ms. Howard Stern in Vegas and we want you to be a part of it. And I said, well, I work at night at 10 o' clock at night. And then I also have to go to work in the morning. So I can't really go stay in Vegas for a day or two and do it. But what time are you guys taping it or something? He said, oh, we'll start at like, I don't know, five in the afternoon or six in the afternoon. We'll go for three or four hours. I said, well, I think what I could do is drive to Vegas. Cause I can't fly because there's not gonna be any flights out or flights back or the schedule's not gonna work. But I could drive to Vegas. Like if I left LA at noon, I could drive there and then be there by like 4:30 or 5 and then do your show from like 5 to 9 or 10 or something like that. Then I could go to an affiliate we have in Vegas and do Loveline from 10pm to midnight. And then when I was done with that, I could just drive home. And so I left LA at noon and I got home about five in the morning and all eight. And I only did it because I wanted to do Stern show and I didn't. There was no flights and I couldn't stay over or anything. But I also thought you gotta kind of want to do that if you do stand up.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes. People don't realize. I didn't even realize how much work it is. I only started. I'll say this on your show, even though I've had so many people advise me not to say this, but I just. I don't pretend I only started doing standup six months ago.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, really?

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And you got all those viral clips

[Arynne Wexler]

up there already that's really taken off. I mean, I like to think I was. I wasn't always funny. Like, as a child, I wasn't like the funny kid. I was like, funny looking, which is why I'm funny now. But I was funny for a while. I've been doing funny videos on Instagram.

[Adam Carolla]

How's your. Very attractive. So how is it you were funny looking when you're a kid?

[Arynne Wexler]

I just had a normal. Like, I'm a kid of the early 90s. We were normal kids back then. We were awkward tweens. We had. We had. We read like, silly, you know, like, people like, what was it? Teen People magazine and like Seventeen magazine. Like, kids today also, like, there's a whole other topic of how they don't. They skip from being like 6 years old old to 26.

[Adam Carolla]

But I think all women feel awkward when they're 14, even though they're not like. Or most.

[Arynne Wexler]

They're pretty girls, though, you see what? Like, they're pretty girls in middle school and high school.

[Adam Carolla]

Every goddamn time. I've interviewed every model and whatever in the world, and they're always like, oh, I was so awkward when I was 15 and none of the boys like. And I go, that was all in your head, baby.

[Arynne Wexler]

No, it wasn't in my head.

[Adam Carolla]

Not you, maybe, but it was in Uma Thermos head.

[Arynne Wexler]

No, it wasn't in my head. I had a family friend say to me a few years ago, like, you know, we definitely didn't think you'd turn out this way.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, well, that's good.

[Arynne Wexler]

I had braces for four years. I had a palate expander, but I always had a lot of friends. I had boyfriends. Like, I wasn't like, well, if you

[Adam Carolla]

had boyfriends, then something was working.

[Arynne Wexler]

It was the personality. It wasn't the. I appreciate the boys that liked me. That man with the braces we didn't care about. But also, the look back then, it was different. It was like heroin chic, right? Early 2000s. It was a very different look. And I. I'm not thankful to the Kardashians for most things, but I am thankful that they made big lips, big brows, curves like that. They actually made that a thing because it was not. I, like, hated my lips growing up and my eyebrows. And now I get. You know, people pay to have. Have that. So, yeah, it was a very different time. But, yeah, no, working in comedy, people don't realize the performance element of it either. Like, it's physically exhausting. I'm driving to places all the time, the way you just described. You're waiting around, it's late at night, you know.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, I mean, you have to want to do it. I ended up. I went with a producer, a director from the Man Show. Her name was Beth Einhorn, and her and I were just friends.

[Arynne Wexler]

I like how he added that we were just friends.

[Adam Carolla]

We were just friends. Well, she was an attractive woman, and, you know, I took her to Vegas all night.

[Arynne Wexler]

That's true.

[Adam Carolla]

So, you know, people might think something was up, but Beth Einhorn and I were just friends. But she was a director. She was, like a ballsy, kind of funny, tough woman. Still is. And I picked her up at her house in Sherman Oaks at, like, noon. And like I said, we did the Vegas Odyssey. And then I dropped her off at her house at 5 in the morning. And when she got out of the car, she goes, adam, she goes, you went to Vegas. You did Stern. You talked the whole time. Then you did Loveline. You talked the whole time. And in the car ride there and back, you talked the whole time. So you never stopped talking for the last 17 hours. Could have been your phone.

[Arynne Wexler]

It was my phone.

[Adam Carolla]

Ignore it. I realized, yeah, I like talking about. So it's good. Like, I don't get it. Like, when comedians or people like comedy, when you go, hey, don't you think that. And they go, I don't know. Who cares? Shut up. Like, I'm always like, well, you gotta wanna communicate if you're a comedian.

[Arynne Wexler]

I think what I like the most is I love making people laugh.

[Adam Carolla]

Mm.

[Arynne Wexler]

That's what I'm. That's what I'm. I realize that's what I'm always going for. When. Before I did stand up, even before I posted on social media, starting about, like, two. Two and a half years ago, I could Be at a dinner with friends. I could be on a date. I could be wherever. And I'm always just trying to get the laugh out of someone. And it really is a privilege to make people laugh. It feels like a gift. And like, I know people have. Not everyone has an easy life. I think most people, like, life is full of friction. And it's great to be able to make people feel seen. Like, what we do also is different because it's not just making people laugh, but there are a lot of people in this country who feel like there's someone who isn't representing their point of view. So it's nice to do that while also making them laugh.

[Adam Carolla]

What's your background? Sorry? Are you Jewish? Are you Catholic?

[Arynne Wexler]

What are you Wechsler? Yeah, Wexler, I know, but the first name throws you off, right? It's my black girl spelling Wexler.

[Adam Carolla]

See, the thing about Jewish, Not Wexner,

[Arynne Wexler]

it's not the Epstein files, but it's Jewish. It's very Jewish.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, except for. You have to understand, there are the Bergs and the Steins and there's the upper echelon of Jewish names. Not me, but then listen, there's Shapiro is a Jewish name, but it also sounds like a Japanese beer. It doesn't sound Jewish. Jewish normally is like Lipschultz and Bergs and Steins and stuff. So like Wechsler, like Wechsler I know is Jewish, but I don't think of it as. And maybe it's an east coast thing, because there's not a lot of Wechslers around here.

[Arynne Wexler]

No, there aren't. But yes, I'm Ashkenazi Jew. People think I'm Sephardi sometimes, but I'm 100% Jewish.

[Adam Carolla]

So Jewish, female, conservative, not that common.

[Arynne Wexler]

No, it's not common.

[Adam Carolla]

And stand up. Not very common.

[Arynne Wexler]

I don't think it's common in most places. I mean, there are a lot of everyone who's an Orthodox Jew. Not everyone, but I should say, like more religious. Jews are right wing. But even among that, you still have a lot of women who are liberal leaning. Because that's just the woman's nature of being emotional.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, no, that's true. I also have a theory that because it does come up, like, why Jews. They don't preach what they practice. As my friend Dennis Prager would say, they're conservative, they're family oriented, they're education oriented, and then they go vote lefty bullshit that fucks all that up. And it's like, why aren't they talking about what? They're actually. Why aren't they voting their life? They're living a conservative life and they vote very left leaning. And I have a theory. I don't know, I don't know.

[Arynne Wexler]

What's your theory?

[Adam Carolla]

I got a couple theories. Involving the Jews? No, actually three. All right, first is the Jews have had problems historically with standing out and then getting into trouble and getting killed. I think around here they just want to blend in and like be down with whatever the popular cause is. Especially if you're going to work in LA and you're gonna work in the industry, you're gonna be out if you start wearing around a MAGA hat. Right. But there is a element with Jews where they sort of keep their head down a little bit. Like the number one, keep your head down group or Asian, just go, listen, don't get up there and start screaming about representation. We don't need a Japanese chick running the fire department. You don't need anyone who looks like you and the city council. You just shut up, keep your head down and kick everyone's ass schol, and you'll make more money than any of these people. And they do that, Asians even. And at least they used to. And they still do. Like I'd go to school with Asians guy and the guy was like named Sam Yamahurto or something. And I'd go, sam, and your sister's name is Becky. And they're just giving them super easy Anglo names to try to get them to fit in and not make it hard to pronounce their real names and all that kind of stuff. So they're. I think the Jews want to get along and they've been persecuted and rounded up enough times to go, I just want to know which way the wind is blowing. And let's ride with these people this way, especially in la, because you won't be able to work.

[Arynne Wexler]

I don't think that's dissimilar from what I was going to say, which is that religious Jews overwhelmingly vote right wing and secular Jews overwhelmingly vote left wing. And there are more reform, which is basically Palestinian at this point, but you have secular Jews and there are way more of those than religious Jews and a lot of people intermarrying. And so I think to your point, those are the Jews that think, oh, let me support the pro Palestine, like pro Hamas movement. Let me be a self hating Jew, let me be an anti Zionist, not realizing. And a lot of these people actually realized like in it was like pride marches and dyke marches where they wouldn't allow Jews to march with them. And these progressives were standing there in shock saying, what do you mean? I supported blm and I'm, you know, all these, all these progressive causes, like, I'm part of that. And they didn't understand why they were being kicked out of those movements. And so those are the same Jews that also think that, oh, I'll just assimilate. I'll just not assimilate in the sense. And like, there's a lot of online chatter with like the, the neo Nazis and the haters who will say something like, oh, you don't want to assimilate. I don't mean like assimilate like be a part of the American fabric. I mean, like pretending to not be Jewish and trying to shirk that identity. And I know a lot of Jews who are still who wound up becoming more right wing because they had that wake up call, especially after October 7th. Plenty of them, the ones I wouldn't know are the ones that, that stay in that movement. So I agree with you. That's why. But it's not Jews. It's what I call ginos. Right. Jews in name only. Because religious Jews are right wing.

[Adam Carolla]

No, that I get.

[Arynne Wexler]

But in my synagogue, like 95% voted for Trump.

[Adam Carolla]

95% religious Jews have given up on the get along in Hollywood and sort of get invited to the cocktail parties.

[Arynne Wexler]

So that's, I think, about the Jews that write these shows, though. Like the. Nobody wants this. It's the show about like the Hot Rabbi with Adam Brody and Kristen Bell. Disgusting show where you could see it's written by a Jew that doesn't know anything about Judaism.

[Adam Carolla]

I feel the same way when they do a script about carpentry. That guy's holding a finish hammer and he's framing with it. What the hell?

[Arynne Wexler]

I can't imagine the fury that you feel, the anger over that, much worse

[Adam Carolla]

than whatever you're saying.

[Arynne Wexler]

And soon people are going to start hating on carpenters on Twitter the way they do hate on Jews.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, so I have a second Jewish theory, which is, why do the blacks hate the Jews?

[Arynne Wexler]

Well, because we hold a mirror up to what they should accomplish.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, you're so correct. There's nothing.

[Arynne Wexler]

And I get to say it because I have a black girl spelling for my name.

[Adam Carolla]

That's right.

[Arynne Wexler]

So I can say whatever I want.

[Adam Carolla]

There's nothing that gets a reaction more than shame. And the black community is always talking about racism, but they're talking about slavery. And they always do this thing where it's like, slavery was only 170 years ago, and it's like it was only. Jim Crow was only. They're trying to build this bridge to this atrocity of the past to explain their failure in the present. And the Jews are thriving in the present, and they have a shorter bridge to the Holocaust and many other atrocities. And that is a narrative that fucks up your black narrative.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

So you don't want. It's basically this. The black guy goes, you know, the mom, the coach says, you know, why can't you play this season? And black guy goes, because my back is sore. And then the Jew comes in and he goes, this guy played the whole season with a broken arm. And it fucks up the narrative. Not that you guys would excel at sports, but you know what I'm saying?

[Arynne Wexler]

Totally. We own sports. We don't play sports.

[Adam Carolla]

He's right. So blacks then resent Jews for fucking with their narrative. Because anyone who's got two fucking brain cells to rub together, when these guys are just talking about systemic this or the horrors of the past, just going, well, the Jews are kicking ass and they've been historically oppressed.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah. And don't forget that our first gay president, Barack Obama, he would always post around Black History Month and show photos from Selma and he would actively cut out the rabbi.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, really?

[Arynne Wexler]

With Martin Luther King. Like, they forget Jews were killed for standing with the black community.

[Adam Carolla]

Jews think if they can just ingratiate themselves into groups, everyone's going to like them. And it doesn't work that way.

[Arynne Wexler]

Never works. No, no.

[Adam Carolla]

We had. We have a. We're talking about a Mandami clip where he was talking about.

[Arynne Wexler]

Speaking about gay Muslims. Let's talk about Zoran Mohamdani.

[Adam Carolla]

He was talking about the people of color. It's always this great thing where it's 2026 and they go, this impacts the black and brown and people of color, this community. And does anyone want to know why? Rent. So if rent is $1,500 and it's $1,500 for me, and it's $1,500 for you, and it's $1, 500 for everybody. But you're black or Hispanic, so it impacts you more, should we be talking about the price of rent, or should we ask why it impacts you more? Because it doesn't impact Asian and Jews and white guys. They just pay rent. But it does impact the black and Hispanic group. So their thing is, like, what's going on with rent? And my question is, the rent's Steady, that's a constant. The part where you're being impacted, that's different. That's something else. So we should look why? All right. And I famously asked Gavin Newsom on the show, why, why black and Hispanic, what's going on? He wouldn't answer. Of course. It's my favorite clip of all time. But let's listen to Zorin talk about this. Now he's got a plan. He's going to get money from white people and he's going to give it to black and brown people so they're not impacted anymore. And while today's true cost of living measure confirms that the affordability crisis touches every corner of our city, we know that these effects are not applied evenly. So often it is black and brown New Yorkers who are hit the hardest. This preliminary racial equity plan is the first step in developing a whole of government approach to tackling that reality. It is a plan that lays out these first steps to solve decades of neglect and discrimination. And it places the work of 45 city agencies within a singular framework. All right, so it's impacting, by the way, I'm in California, six dollar a gallon gas impacts Mexicans more than impacts Jews or facts, Jews or Asians because they drive trucks and they make a lot less money and they don't drive electric cars because they gotta work. So that's true and there's something we could do about it, but they're not interested in that part of the impactfulness. Yeah, this is just the first step. The next step is just gonna be collecting the property of anyone who makes a living and just giving it to black and brown people.

[Arynne Wexler]

Well, there's so, I mean there's obviously so much wrong with what Mamdani said, but also the people he's mentioning, like Bipoc, the black, Asian Pacific, indigenous midget, like whatever he wants to talk about, these people are heavily subsidized by white and Jewish New Yorkers. Like they, he's talking about the people that take the most from the welfare state. And he doesn't use numbers, he doesn't use facts. No, a lot of these people, it's like the majority of subsidized housing in New York City is obviously black and Hispanic and a lot of it is illegal as well. So what is he even. This is just to your point, it's like just for government to take more control.

[Adam Carolla]

I've said this a million times and everyone thinks I'm a douche, but sometimes people go, to me in the past they would go, what's Your charity? What are you doing? What charities do you give to? I go, I don't really give to any charities. And they go, you don't. I give to charities. I go, oh, okay, well, my charities, I pay a million dollars a year in taxes, and then everyone gets to be on my roll. They get to use my stuff. And they go, huh? What's that mean? I give to the March of Dimes? I go, listen, you're a fucking schoolteacher. What do you pay a year? Eight grand. Okay, you pay eight grand, I pay a million. So how much road do we get paved with your fucking eight grand? And how many new schools get built and how many after school programs do you pay for? So your deal is, is you give eight grand and that money just gets whacked up and spread out. Could be the military, it could be FEMA. Everything. You pay eight grand, we whack up your measly eight grand versus my million. But you give 60 bucks every three months of the March of Dimes, and now you're fucking better than I am. Shut up.

[Arynne Wexler]

I'm trying to calculate how much of that is cap gains. I'm trying to figure out how much you make every year.

[Adam Carolla]

You choose. You choose.

[Arynne Wexler]

I'm just doing the math here really fast. I was like, oh, they could have sent a nicer car for kidding. But, you know, you should be thankful that you're not a billionaire, because now they're trying to do the billionaires tax in California. They're losing everybody.

[Adam Carolla]

You know, I'll play me and Gavin, just a minute of it, just so we can have fun. He tried to do the black and brown checking account people in here, and it.

[Arynne Wexler]

He's so annoying.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, God. This is him at his best, though. Look down the road. Six months. Yes. Your husband lost his job. That's why you need to sock away some money when he's gainfully employed. Yes. They foreclosed on your home. That's why you need to have a network, a community, friends, family members, money put away. But think about, don't have the kids. 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? A lot of different reasons, but roughly half those families don't. Why do Armenians have them? But where they end up is check cashing places. But I want to know why those groups. Why those two groups don't have access to a lot of. Just happens to be that we can talk about. Are they flawed? No, they're hardly flawed, but they're strong. Do Asians have this problem? I mean, a lot of communities have. A lot of whites have these problems. Oh, so that's not just black and Hispanic. No. But why did you bring up black and Hispanic? Because the magnitude is ominous. Why? Blacks and Hispanics across the board, all socioeconomic. Okay? So everybody, everybody struggles. So Asians are suffering just as much as blacks. The face of welfare is not an African American face. It's Asian, Jewish. It's all of them Caucasian. It's a lot of society, a lot of folks are struggling. Okay?

[Arynne Wexler]

Amazing.

[Adam Carolla]

He's a fucking idiot. It's basically, you're wrong. Well, hold on.

[Arynne Wexler]

He's a liar.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, he's a liar. He brings up a problem and then when I ask him to try to solve it, he says it happens to be that way, which is not really. It's like saying, I'm a politician. What's going on? There's a big crack in the dam. What are you gonna do to fix it? It just happens to be a crack. And. Well, what do we need you for, by the way, if you're just gonna bring up shit that's wrong and then have no solutions for it? But yes, he's a sociopathic idiot because he doesn't understand what he sounds like.

[Arynne Wexler]

I don't know if I agree with you that he doesn't know what he sounds like. I think he's like a sociopathic liar.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, yeah, he is a sociopathic liar.

[Arynne Wexler]

And he seems pretty suave to me. Like, I think a big mistake we can make on the right is just pretending that these people can't win. And Democrats are very good at getting people to vote and getting votes in however you think that happens.

[Adam Carolla]

You know, I guess when I say idiot, I certainly, I don't mean dumb. What I mean is he doesn't have the ability to hear himself when he speaks. And so he says a lot of stuff that gets thrown back in his face because he doesn't monitor himself correctly or clearly when he's speaking.

[Arynne Wexler]

Well, I think he's an idiot in that he thinks that this is the way to live his life. And the things that he's making his causes like that makes you an idiot. It makes you a bad person because he's pretending to be a good person. What he's actually doing is making everybody worse off. And that's A problem.

[Adam Carolla]

He's pretending to be a good person and hurting a lot of people and killing people too as well. So it's sort of like your policies are killing people in the streets, but yet they break out in applause when you go in front of the dais and talk to like minded idiots.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes, but think about it. That's a lot of the left. It's just a bunch of clapping seals that will see him go on stage and say, we care about diversity and equity inclusion. That's what we care about. And people have such short memories. Everyone has TikTok brain and goldfish memory and no one's gonna remember the Palisades fire. And also it was very specific to California. I see Gavin Newsom as a serious threat.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, certainly in that there's nobody else on the bench, really. I mean, Kamala Harris, who actually is a dope. So she's basically the unskilled version of Gavin News. Gavin Newsom is a sociopath and he's a liar. But he's skilled at it. Yes, she's a sociopath and a liar and she's unskilled at it. So the skilled. I always say they're both magicians. They're not warlocks. They don't have any powers. It's just sleight of hand. But she's clumsy with her sleight of hand. He's doing the same sleight of hand, which is, none of this is ever gonna happen, whatever it is you're promising. And all the nonsense about people living with Dign and a seat at the table, it's all just gibberish bullshit and nothing ever comes out the other end. But he's much better at selling his gibberish bullshit. And she's unskilled at it.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes. Well, it was six years ago. He was at the French Laundry during COVID when people's grandparents were dying by themselves in the hospital. Right?

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Arynne Wexler]

And he's still, you know, he's.

[Adam Carolla]

Nobody cares.

[Arynne Wexler]

He shouldn't be. Nobody cares. He shouldn't be in politics.

[Adam Carolla]

The thing about Californians is they all bought into Covid and listened to him and they were duped. And so basically, here's what Californians are. All right, I just thought of this. They're like somebody who got ripped off in some sort of timeshare thing. Right. Let's just say you and I were a couple and you said he would be so lucky. Yeah. Be a good day. But you said. I said, I'm going to go down and get involved with this timeshare Then you would go, don't do it. And then I would go, I know what I'm doing, Ms. Wharton School, because I got a little something called street smarts. And you can show me all the degrees you want with your business and your finance. I know what I'm doing. I got a good feeling about this, and I'm never wrong. And I got myself into this timeshare. The timeshare ended up being a rip off, and there's big hoas and I never use the thing. And then you'd come up to me and go, how's that timeshare going for you? And I'd go, just fine. I like my timeshare, thank you very much. Because now it's an ego involved. And so all the people that got duped by Covid and all the people that got lied to by this hack, and all these people who told their neighbors to pull their mask up or tattled on them for walking down the horse trail or alone on the beach, you idiots got duped. You were wrong. And you have to go find a mirror and figure out what else you're wrong about. But you don't want to do that because you're weak and you don't have character and you're a coward. And so everyone goes, why isn't anyone apologizing for all the COVID bullshit? Because they're the people who bought the timeshare and they don't want to say, you're right, I was wrong. You told me so. I wouldn't listen. And next time something comes along, maybe I'll shut up and I'll let you make the financial decisions. They don't wanna admit it, so they have to keep voting for the guy who was wrong about COVID who fucked their lives up. Because to do something else would be to admit they were wrong. And nobody wants to do that on the left.

[Arynne Wexler]

I think that's right. But I also think that's why I think we're in a lot of trouble in the next few years. Because think about it. Trump won in 2024 with the widest tent we've ever seen. We had Elon, we had the tech bros, and we had Maha. We had all these mommies. I went to these events for Maha before the election and after. And these are liberal women. These are the classic suburban mom. That because what the left is really good at is convincing, especially women, that if you have empathy, if you're a good person and a nice person, you don't get to vote for the right. You don't get to vote for a Republican candidate.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, things were mean.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah, things were so bad in 2024, just think I was ready to get sent to the re education gulags. Were you like? I was like, this is. If things don't go our way, we're in a lot of trouble. We're going like civilization goes to the dark ages if Kamala wins. And we're all gonna have to use pronouns and we're all gonna be forced to watch bad SNL skits and we're gonna have to pretend to laugh and it's gonna be horrible. And these mothers had their kids coming home from school saying, there's a kid in my class that identifies as a furry and is shitting in a litter box in the bathroom. And it finally gave these especially women permission in the privacy of a voting booth where you should just vote for whoever you think is right. But the left is so good at getting into your head, even there, even when no one is around and no one is watching. And so that's why people voted for the right. And things are much better under Trump. But things are still rocky. We're sitting here right now. We'll see what happens with Iran this week. We'll see where the economy is in a couple years. But things are gonna be, even if they're worse than they are today, wherever they are, they're gonna be better than they were in 2024 when we were voting. And I don't think the average person thinks, huh, things are better. Why don't I vote for the side that made things better than they were before? I think it takes away the pressure and the social permission of voting for the right. And so more people will sit at home or they'll think, ah, you know, like, things are okay, like in New York City. I think a lot of there are many reasons why Zoro and mom Donnie one, including foreign funding, billionaire funding. There's so many reasons why. The fact that, you know, but a lot of it is that people sat at home because things were better under Adams. After Trump, things were really bad under Adams at the beginning, Eric Adams. And then after Trump was inaugurated, he and Adams had a meeting and Eric Adams basically started leading like a Trump esque policy in New York City. Things were much better. The streets got cleaner, things felt safer. And then Zoran Mamdani gets elected. So I see New York City as a warning for what can happen with the presidency.

[Adam Carolla]

[Adam Carolla]

There's also, there's also kind of a blackmail component to this, which is. Doesn't bode well for the Republicans, which is the left literally has tantrums when the right wins and they make everything a battle and everything's insanity. And there's all. It's basically like they go, you want any more this ice chaos out there? Do you want. You see what's going on in the streets? You see what happens when you send ice out? It's like, well, if you just stay the fuck home and let them do their fucking job, then no, there wouldn't be chaos. The chaos is your fat white ass getting out there and wrestling with them. Thus, we have chaos. And so I don't say it's in a charter, it's written down anywhere, but it is understood. And anyone who's been married understands this, where you just go, fuck it, man. I'm tired of arguing. I'm just fucking liar. But she's wrong. She's wronger. He's wrong. Rarely the case, but someone's wrong. And the other person goes, I don't care. I'm eating shit. I Don't want to deal with this anymore. I can't fucking deal with it. Anybody who's had two kids, I have twins, girl, boy. My girl was a royal pain in the ass growing up.

[Arynne Wexler]

Love her.

[Adam Carolla]

She's great now.

[Arynne Wexler]

Sounds great.

[Adam Carolla]

She's fucking fantastic. But she's fucking going for it, man. I talk to her. Every time I talk to her, I'm like, where were you? I went skydiving. Okay. Where are you today? Disneyland. Where are you today? I'm at the country club. Okay. Where are you? Dad, I'm going to work. I'm working. So you can go skydiving. Go to the country club. But she goes for it. My son was super easy, super laid back. Still is. That's their personality.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And she'd, you know, she'd start having a fit about something, and, you know, my son would be like, well, she rode in the front on the way out to the beach, and now she wants to ride in the front seat on. That's not fair. We have to train on. And I'd go, I know, I know. I don't want to fucking hear it anymore. Just fucking get in the back. Yes, but I have to go in the back on the way there and on the way back from the beach. I get it. It's not fair. I just don't want to deal with this shit anymore. And I think the left is very good at this. They're such fucking bellyaching pussy whiners that they never fucking shut up. And half their pitch is like, don't you want to just go back to normal? Here's what normal is. Wide open border, and you tax the fuck out of everyone, but no one is complaining.

[Arynne Wexler]

Mm.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

So we'd like you to shut up. So if we give you Gavin Newsom, he's gonna ruin the country, but you guys will shut up for four years so we can fucking make a drive back from the beach and not go insane. Lot of people take that.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah. I've also just never subscribed to the idea of, you know, when people said, especially after 2020, it's like, oh, we're the silent majority versus the loud minority. I don't know why being in the majority makes you right. And I actually think most of history shows that a lot of times the people good and right are not necessarily the majority. I think the majority is for masses who think in the same way. And I think that's something the right with. The right struggles with a lot of things. We also, like, we got the culture back for Two and a half seconds. And now we're like, not really cool again. Like we were really cool with like our black like the dark MAGA hats and everything. And now we're getting like pretty uptight and like unfunny and cringe again. Which is disappointing to see. And part of why I try to do comedy, to make it lighthearted again. But I don't know the left, like, they have the culture. Like liberals are good at that. They're good at being cooler.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, they don't. I mean, they got like a 75 year head start, you know what I mean? Like, people are like, where are all the funny Republican comedians? It's like, well, they didn't start doing it for a long time. You know, it was. I mean, you know, Jon Stewart's been at it for a long time. They sort of. It's sort of like soccer. Like our country sucked at soccer for a long time just cause everyone played soccer around the world and we played baseball.

[Arynne Wexler]

Do you think that's it though? I think we have different personalities. Like, I think the world. It's like we should have male and female and like, we should, I'll say it, we should have liberal and conservative. I just wish we had like less of the liberal. But I think that there is a healthy balance. Like, I want my interior designer of a house to be a liberal. I don't want a Republican decorating my house. Like, it won't look as nice, you know, like there's the joke that we've been saying for a few years. Like you want your barista to have like purple hair and you know it's gonna be a great coffee. So I think that there are things like the left is good at the arts. They're also really good at, like, they build institutions that we don't like. You just have to call a spade a spade. I'm not saying it's good, but how is it that they took over universities because Republicans gave up on universities? We just walked away.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, okay, first few things. Agreed. I mean, comedy's more cerebral and it's a little less. It's not physical. And the guys I know that are sort of on the right or more the Pete Hegseth, you know, let's do push ups, let's get in the octagon, let's drive a jeep over a hill. You know, they're tactile, physical. They don't sit around and think about stuff. They go do shit, you know, and they're literally outdoors men. It's like they're Men and they're outdoor and they hunt, they fish, and they camp and that whole thing like that's their world, but that's not sitting around in your Brooklyn apartment writing jokes, you know, so there's like a little bit of that. But it's also, they were never the. I worked in the trades. Trades guys are all right wing. They don't really know it, but they're practical people. And practical people end up being right wing because they have to deal with dangerous things with blades on them, spinning around. And they can have feelings about putting a barn up. They have to go fucking put the barn up, you know what I mean? So they live in a very tactile sort of real gravity laden world. And also they have to assess risk all the time, which the left doesn't do. The left's like, Covid's come around. Well, everyone go home and stay in your house. Well, what about work? Well, don't work. Yes, well, but how do you feed your family? We'll give you food and you stay home. But what about people? But don't you want to go to Trader Joe's? Well, yeah, yeah, someone should go work at Trader Joe's and then I'll go back to my house. Like, they have this wild, unrealistic insane version. Everything for them is about safety. And it's like, hey, if you want to build a bridge, some point someone's going to have to get up and do shit that ain't safe. But I do think that it just never was the realm of the, of the conservative to do comedy. And then Hollywood got every. Hollywood made it so that if you were conservative, you got shunned. So people kind of learned that part. So there's kind of a. There's a learning curve mixed with a. I agree. Like an attitudinal thing where it's just not really. I don't know a lot of conservative people that have wildly wicked senses of humor and they're also less. Probably less verbal. So the people that I grew up with are the more sort of go out hunting and fishing kind of guys. They don't talk about stuff that much. They just kind of do it.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah. Well, to your point, I have two things to say. The first is it's like you want the conservative to build your house and you want the liberal to decorate it. Yeah, those are the two brains.

[Adam Carolla]

I agree.

[Arynne Wexler]

And then you have a full. And then you have a completed house.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes.

[Arynne Wexler]

So you need conservatives or people on the right who are practical, who understand danger and risk and getting the job done. And then you need the whimsical dreamer who can decorate a space in a way that you wouldn't know how to do.

[Adam Carolla]

You know, like, sorry, you don't need them.

[Arynne Wexler]

No, I know you don't need them.

[Adam Carolla]

It's nice to have them.

[Arynne Wexler]

You need the house.

[Adam Carolla]

You need the fucking house.

[Arynne Wexler]

You need the house.

[Adam Carolla]

You don't need the end table.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes, but at the end of the day, I know, like I think the world works in balance.

[Adam Carolla]

I agree with you.

[Arynne Wexler]

And so like I don't want a world to full of me's because I'm a pretty like abrasive, blunt, you know, person.

[Adam Carolla]

You need the people to build the theater on the right and they need the people on the left to create the film that plays in the theater.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes, exactly. And I'm saying liberals are different than leftists. The problem is the left is becoming overwhelmed by leftists, not liberals. And that's why so many liberals have started to come to the right, especially in 2024. I have a lot of friends who are just really in the middle, especially from New York, cause they're business people but from New York and they'll kind of go either way. And they voted for Trump because of that reason. But what I will say about comedy is I also, yeah, like it's a bit theatrical, isn't it? Like with comedy. But the reason why Comedy Struggle has been struggling the last few years and all these late shows are irrelevant and the ratings are like through the floor is because comedy is just the truth with good timing. And so if you're not saying the truth, it's not funny. But you get these. A lot of the audiences now, especially Gen Z, they expect you to just be saying their truths that they could snap to, not laugh to. I actually saw Bill Burr last night at an event and he performed and he was so funny. And I was shocked by how I'd say 95% of what he said except for a dig at Trump. And it wasn't even that bad of a, it wasn't a big dig. But his comedy was something that you and I would say. He said like these ugly women feminists, you know, and he, he had a joke about how black people love God, but God doesn't seem to love them back as much. And like he said things that like the audience, it was a Gen Z pretty Gen Z audience, Gen Z heavy. And they weren't laughing at that because they, they just feel like they're supposed to be offended. But he was just being a comic.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, I Don't know, I can't. I like Bill Byrne, I think he's super funny. And then I think he took kind of a weird left turn for a while and then I hadn't heard that much from him other than he got a little woke and left or something. And now is he tacking back or.

[Arynne Wexler]

I was wondering the same thing last night. I didn't get to look into recent clips between last night and now, but I was really pleasantly surprised and I thought he does what you and I try to do. Or what you do, what I'm trying to do, which is to even have someone who has a totally different political opinion. Like I'm sitting there thinking this is Bill Burr, he went woke and I'm laughing my ass off the whole time, right? And that, like it's just, it's undeniably funny and it's true enough that I can laugh at it even if I don't fully agree with it. I can laugh.

[Adam Carolla]

So now we're in a weird stage and I'll play you play another clip because there's, see, there's things I can't figure out about the newsoms of the world. And his wife is great, man. She's the gift that keeps giving, man. She is a treasure chest of horrible short form clips on the Internet that everyone's digging up. But I've asked this question, but you went to Wharton and you studied.

[Arynne Wexler]

I love how many times he said it. Thank you so much. We'd like to thank our sponsors for today's show, the Horton School of Finance.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Thank you.

[Adam Carolla]

I've said a million times, I used to say Dr. Drew all the time, but I've said a million times, I don't get why there's so much controversy about economics. It should be a settled science by now. There's a lot of like, well, some guys say this and then. And some guys are supply side guys. And then some guys say we can just print our way out of a recession. And I'm like, can we just figure out what works and doesn't work? Isn't it pretty apparent that the communism does not work at all economically? Like it always turns into a shit show? Can we just agree on certain things? Like people need incentive to leave the house. And it's real easy stuff. Like it's straightforward, it's kind of diet. It's like, it's like I'm a nutritionist going, well, diet and exercise, you want to. And someone's going well, not so fast, Johnny. And I'm like, can we just Agree on diet and exercise, they'll help you lose weight. And like, no, we cannot. We're going to argue about it. And it's like, why? You know, as a former builder, there was just rules, stuff worked, stuff didn't work. There were certain size beams and headers for certain size openings, you know, and you'd go, I want a 12 foot opening, but I only want to use a 4 by 4. Someone go, not going to work, got to be a 4 by 12. You want to go that big, that kind of. There were just rules. Anybody followed them and you got your house built. And everyone understood it. I don't get what the economics. And maybe it's an Obama, it's a leftist thing because someone said to Obama once, they said, why don't you just lower the corporate tax and then you end up getting more business and then you end up getting more tax revenue. And he goes, I get it, but I don't like, I don't like the optics of it. It's kind of like, oh, okay, so you're gonna do a thing that punishes the corporations and you take in less money? Yes, cuz I'm an asshole, that's what I'm gonna do. So I kind of get that part. But when you hear Liz Warren talking about taking Elon's money and giving it to these people, can any economist just go, that shit never works?

[Arynne Wexler]

No, I'll tell you the problem. Well, first, you know, an Econ 101, the first thing they say, you learn a few phrases and one is an assumption, which is assume the consumer is rational. That's the line they always use in every chart in an Econ 101 class. And that drove me nuts because I would sit there in the 11th grade and I was like, what do you mean assume the consumer is rational? They're not. Rational people are deeply irrational. And that's why you get the whole field of behavioral economics, which then people in like other fields disagree with. I think there's like, there are pros and cons to behavioral econ and there are great books about it, but that assumes that people are irrational and it looks into why people act the way they do.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, I mean, for me, Thomas Sowell, and I'll paraphrase, but he basically said, look, the best you can do with your money is you spending your money on yourself. And then the second best you can do is you spend your money on a gift for somebody, you know, and the worst you can do is spending someone else's money on somebody you don't know. And that's where you end up with the leering center. You know what I mean? That's where you end up with this crazy government shit. It's not their money. Nobody cares. No accountability. All out the window. And so in the middle of this era where we're uncovering daily insane waste, fraud and abuse, we also have daily Liz Warrens and Bernie Sanders saying, we need more money, which is optically an insane thing to ask for while we're discovering all this waste, fraud, and abuse. And it's essentially what she's doing. It's like if you were married and you got a bill, you got a utility bill, gas and water and electric, and it was like $41,000 for the month, right? And then you said to your wife, like, hey, man, this is insane. You got to shut the windows, turn the thermostat. You open all the windows and turn the thermostat all the way up. The pool's 90 degrees. It's the middle of winter. No one even goes in the pool. The flood. You're flooding the front yard. You got like a rice paddy out there. What are we doing? We got to dial it back. And she just went, why don't you fucking make some more money? And we wouldn't have to deal with this. And I'm like, yeah, or we could shut a window and turn the pool heater off in the middle of December. And so their argument is, literally, give us more money in the middle of wasting the most money. And I'll play Liz's clip, which is great, because she's going to explain to us, like, we're nine, what she could do with Elon's money.

[Elizabeth Warren (clip)]

So I've been trying to make this video to show you what wealth inequality looks like in America. I wanted to compare how much wealth the average American has compared to Elon Musk. And I wanted to do it with M&Ms. But it turns out that to make that happen, I'd need to get six and a half million M&Ms. That's right. Elon Musk has six and a half million times more wealth than the typical American, if you were to visualize it. This is you and this is Ian.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, so the average American only has 124,000m and Ms. She doesn't specify whether it's plain or peanut, but I'm surprised. The average American has $124,000.

[Arynne Wexler]

The left ones are full of nuts. So there's peanut, M and Ms, and

[Adam Carolla]

Elon has all the M and Ms. And by the way, that's why you don't have as many M&Ms. Dawson, because he took all the M and M. You understand? You can't go out and get your own M&Ms. You have to go ask Elon for some MMs.

[Show Announcer]

No, she's not talking about Soros MMs.

[Adam Carolla]

No. So she then decides to pick kernels of rice. Okay, so keep going.

[Elizabeth Warren (clip)]

So then I thought, okay, If M&Ms. Are too much, what if we did it with rice? Turns out we'd need a 350 pound bag of rice.

[Adam Carolla]

That is dangerous.

[Elizabeth Warren (clip)]

And frankly, it would be a safety hat.

[Adam Carolla]

That's unwieldy. You can't carry that kind of rice, babe.

[Elizabeth Warren (clip)]

Wealth inequality in this country is so out of control, it's hard to even visualize. And that's one of the many reasons why I introduced my wealth tax in Congress. It's a 2 cent tax on every dollar someone has after. After they hit the 50 million dollar mark. And then a 3 cent tax on every dollar someone has after they hit the billion dollar mark. You know what we can do?

[Adam Carolla]

Hold on a second. You must appreciate this. As a Wharton School graduate. The government is the only place that goes the wrong direction percentage wise. Meaning I deal and have dealt quite a bit in high end car auctions. High end car auctions, they get paid to auction your car off. They get a percentage. If the sale's under like $100,000, they'll get 12%, but if it's over 100,000, they drop down to like 10%. And if it goes over a million, you can negotiate with them. So it goes the other direction, as it. Well, it should because that's the world everyone else lives in. And casinos work that way, which is, hey, you want to come and gamble $100,000, we'll comp your room. They don't go gamble $100,000. We'll charge you twice for the room. The LA mansion tax, it's like 4% for houses up to 5 million, but if you get to 10 million, it's 5%. How's that work? And the government can do it because they have guns, but they're the only one who thinks that way. Everyone else should get a break as you go up.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah, well, it's also, they're acting as if like it's theft, as if he has this money somehow because he took M&Ms. Yeah. And the idea of like, well, what's your cap? Then it's like when Billie Eilish made that dumb comment at that Award ceremony a few months ago where she was talking about billionaires. I'm like, but you're a millionaire. And you. I bet you want to make. I don't know how much she's worth, but she's probably worth what, at least 100 million at this point. And you want to be worth hundreds of millions of more dollars. But you're upset about billionaires. No, you're not. It's just because those are the people

[Adam Carolla]

above you now, by the way, it was always millionaires. It was millionaires. And Bernie Sanders and Liz Warren, they talked about millionaires their entire career. Somebody could put a clip together that would last three days long of them, compl about millionaires. And then someone tapped them on the shoulder and explained, excuse me, Bernie, you're a millionaire. And Liz, you're a millionaire. And they went, okay, got it. Billionaires. They went from million to billion because they're millionaires. But she's got a plan for Elon's money, which I want to hear.

[Elizabeth Warren (clip)]

And that's one of the many reasons why I introduced my wealth tax in Congress. It's a 2 cent tax on every dollar someone has after, after, after they hit the $50 million mark. And then a 3 cent tax on every dollar someone has after they hit the billion dollar mark. You know what we could do with that money? We could make universal child care a reality. Build millions of new homes and lower housing costs, lower the Medicare age.

[Adam Carolla]

You couldn't do shit, bitch. You're giving it to Somalis. Elon Musk could do all the shit you're saying you're going to do. He could do it. You would squander it. Here's what we could do. I love when they do that. We have a dirt bridge that's not complete yet for $120 million, just so pumas and butterflies can get over the 101. We got a train that's billions of dollars over budget. You fucking idiots can't do anything. You're gonna open hospice places in downtown LA and coin op laundromats and give the money to the Armenians. That's what you fucking guys are gonna do with this money. You're not gonna do anything with the money. Ironically, you could tell Elon to build a bunch of houses and build us a bridge and build us a bullet train and use your money and he would actually do it.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

So I'm not really formally against people giving you money. I'm against them giving you money. You squandering the money and then complaining you're not getting enough money.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah. Also all these. I don't think, Should I pull any

[Adam Carolla]

of this off, by the way, with Elon's cat?

[Arynne Wexler]

I don't think anyone in government should also be. I just don't think they should be on social media. Any of them, the left or the right. I think that like a lot of this messaging where they massage it like that's where they just brainwash people. And imagine if you were a sitting senator or congressman and you just had to deliver results that people felt instead of just talking into social media.

[Adam Carolla]

I am, I will Play. Go back 10 seconds. But listen to all she's going to do with Elon's money. Look what we could have everybody free shit from everybody.

[Elizabeth Warren (clip)]

Every dollar someone has after. After they hit the $50 million mark. And then a 3 cent tax on every dollar someone has after they hit the billion dollar mark. You know what we could do with that money? We could make universal child care a reality. Build millions of new homes and lower housing costs. Lower the Medicare eligibility, age to 55, deliver universal paid family leave, establish tuition free community college and still have money left over. This is just one way we can start to unrig the economy and lower cost families.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, so for Elon would just pay his fair share. Your kid could go to junior college for free. By the way. Lots of talk about junior college. My mom, I come from a long line of junior college people. We weren't Wharton material over here. My mom must have set some kind of record. She went to junior college for like 26 years. She had no fucking money. It's eight bucks a unit or something. It's essentially free. So I don't even know what the discussion of the tuition. If you can't afford $80 to go to college and fuck off or go figure it out. But, but she's just gonna take your money and then she's gonna get all this shit going and it's all gonna be free shit. And it's always gonna work out. Except for it never does.

[Arynne Wexler]

Yeah, well also nothing's free.

[Adam Carolla]

Right?

[Arynne Wexler]

I hate when they say free. That's when you know you're listening to a fraud and a liar when they say the word free over and over again. But also you look at. All you have to do is look at the charts of money spent per kid and you can obviously like adjust for what it would cost today. But, but when you were in school, which wasn't that long ago, cause you're so youthful.

[Adam Carolla]

Big man on campus like it was yesterday.

[Arynne Wexler]

But like when you were like, if you're, when you were in public school, I assume you went to public school, right?

[Adam Carolla]

I was a warehouse baby.

[Arynne Wexler]

But like, I assume. But like, when kids went to public school for decades, like when my parents were going to school, the dollar per kid was a, a fraction of what it is today. The problem is not the money.

[Adam Carolla]

No, I know.

[Arynne Wexler]

It's just not the problem.

[Adam Carolla]

I argue that and have always argued that where they go, these are underfunded. I'm like, if the fucking parents got their shit together and did the homework with the kid. Abe Lincoln, I don't know. Did he have a laptop? I don't know. He studied by candlelight. Anyone can do it. Really the thing it does, it's kind of interesting. Sorry. Back to diet and exercise. But people go like, oh, if I have some rich person like Jennifer Aniston and I could afford a personal trainer. You can afford to eat healthy and exercise. Guys get jacked in prison, for Christ's sake. You can do chin ups on any tree branch, you can go hike on any trail, you can run on any street. And you cannot have a ho ho or a ding Dong just like Jennifer Aniston. You don't need somebody standing next to you to do this stuff. And historically, people have gotten wonderful educations with just one teacher and not this whole unions and bureaucracy and all this bullshit you guys are trying to inject and brainwash everybody super easy. And also when you go to Baltimore, you figure out they spend more there than they do in school systems that do a fuck of a lot better than Baltimore. So where is this, this connection between finances and results?

[Arynne Wexler]

Right. But it also just bothers me. You could apply the. What she's saying about money to many things, but she's acting as if it's a zero sum game like Elon. Making that money means you're not allowed to make money.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Arynne Wexler]

And that's just not how it works. And so it's the same thing as saying like, yeah, someone's fit and you're fat. And so we're gonna make the skinny person eat Ding Dongs to make them fatter. Because it's. Because it makes you feel badly about yourself. That's what it is. You feel badly about yourself. So we're gonna pull down those people that are.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes. And they do this thing that's like access to information. Bullshit. It's like every nine year old knows the difference between an apple and a donut. They just eat the donut, but they all know it. You know, it gets beaten into you. Like, you know, you start reaching for the candy and your mom. No, no, no. First we have dinner, then you can have dessert. Like, that's the first. You pretty much know that at 5. I'd say you don't have discipline and you don't have delayed gratification, which is the number one thing you need to be successful. So you reach for the donut and then you get angry when the doctor tells you you need to lose weight. And then. So we yell at the doctor and tell them to stop shaming people into telling them they need to lose weight. But we understand what works. And there is no direct line between money per student and results. I think there's a. If you wanted to really break it down and put it on a scale, I'd say money is worse results.

[Arynne Wexler]

Probably same thing with universities. Look, the admins are super bloated on college campuses now. They've turned into woke madrasas. People are doing like underwater hijab weaving as their majors. And no one learns in college anymore. Very rarely you have to go like, I think you shouldn't go to an Ivy League and you should go to a school where you will actually learn a real skill set because they don't. I felt like I caught the last chop rat a nom when I graduated college in terms of having a proper education where you could. You could see the BS rolling in, but it was still a real time to go to college where you had really tough teachers. I remember also I was in. Obviously I was in College Republicans. I had friends in the College Democrats. And it was a time where we would go to each other's meetings and it was a social event. It was fun and we could agree and disagree and it was just a nice event. Can you imagine today on an Ivy League campus or on really any college campus, people doing that, like going to each other's meetings from the left and the right. Not to protest, to actually just sit there.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, Conservative Jew showing up at the Gals for Hillary Clinton Club or something.

[Arynne Wexler]

Why don't you? I'm not a lesbian. I wouldn't show up to that work.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, yeah, I hear women are more flexible than men. All right, Aaron, let me give you a plug before I get on with the next part of the show. So you can go to her website because she is touring and she's got dates and tell everyone how to spell your name.

[Arynne Wexler]

It'll be easier. A, R, Y, N, N, E. And then Wexler. It's phonetic. W, E, X, L, E, R. And no, I did not come up with that name myself. It was given to me.

[Adam Carolla]

I like that.

[Arynne Wexler]

Thank you.

Hey, just heard the whole Carrot Top thing and just actually saw a show

[Arynne Wexler]

in Vegas and he does have a

[Adam Carolla]

whole part where he talks about how Gallagher was a huge influence on him and even into the show, smashing A watermelon? It was a fake watermelon with just a bunch of confetti and red streamers. But, yeah, he's definitely a fan.

[Show Announcer]

You can leave us a message at 888-634-1744.

[Adam Carolla]

I heard that Carrot Top just bought Gallagher's pants at a celebrity auction, I guess we'll call it, which is interesting. Thousand dollars. Thousand dollars for Gallagher pants?

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Would you.

[Adam Carolla]

I wouldn't.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I mean, you spend lots of money on cars.

[Adam Carolla]

I do. You know, I'm all for people having stuff they're into and collecting stuff of whatever it is. And for some people. God, I'm trying to. You gotta look this one up, Dawson. But the Zucker, Abrams, Airplane Police Squad and all that. Zucker, I think. No. Well, Airplane Police Squad. I've heard of that.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Oh, no, but you said Zucker, Abrams, like a very specific Airplane Police.

[Adam Carolla]

No, no.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Oh, you're talking about the movie Airplane of Zucker. Okay?

[Adam Carolla]

Of Airplane.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

He was talking about, like, some special

[Adam Carolla]

GI joke schooling, home schooling. Look, the kid.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I know the Leslie line, okay?

[Adam Carolla]

Kid will know the New Testament very well and have no idea any historical, cultural references will be.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I know historical references, just not cultural, cultural.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, Zucker. I think of Zucker, Abrams, Kentucky Pride movie. All those movies.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Okay?

[Adam Carolla]

I think he collects Davy Crockett stuff.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Oh, wow.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes. Has lots of writing things because it

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

was pure and it was old fashioned Disney, so I was allowed to watch that.

[Adam Carolla]

So he has. Not from the TV show, but literal writings of Davy Craig. Filmmaker David Zucker, known for airplane and collector of Davy Crockett memorabilia. Okay?

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

So look, he and Glenn Beck could hang out because Glenn Beck has a lot of old Americana, like, historical stuff, all that stuff.

[Adam Carolla]

It could be baseballs. I don't care. Could be Barbies, whatever it is. I'm into car stuff. And so I got a bunch of Paul Newman stuff. But now, here's the other part. People make fun of these people. Like, you pay $2 million for a Pokemon card. I get it. But if the Pokemon card's worth 5 million in 10 years, then, like, Logan,

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Paul got shit because he bought some baseball card. Then he bought a hockey stick and then he went to play hockey with it. And people were like, how dare you?

[Adam Carolla]

But people should a. If you earn the money, you do whatever you want with it, number one. Number two, are you an idiot for spending a bunch of money for Fonzie's jacket? Like, what do you need Fonzie's jacket for $75,000? Well, if Fonzie's jacket is worth 1.7 million one day. Well, then you're not an idiot like

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

those kids that got Trump's signature. It's gonna be worth $25,000 one day.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, so weird you brought that up. I just got Trump's signature yesterday.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You did? Was it the printed one or was it for real?

[Adam Carolla]

While we were sitting around and talking about Trump, talking about the auto pen, a text showed up in my phone, which is him autographing a big article that was on me, by the way. For those who think Dawson. Those who think Adam. All Adam thinks about is Adam. And Adam's a sociopath. He's a narcissist. He's a narcissist. I had a huge article come out on me, huge. A week ago. Have I said a word about it to anybody here?

[Show Announcer]

I've never heard about it.

[Adam Carolla]

It's a huge, flattering article and it's filled with Kevin Costner and Alec Baldwin and Jimmy Kimmel all calling me a genius. I've never said a word about it. Cuz it's not really. I don't know.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

How did this come out? I had no idea.

[Adam Carolla]

Cause I've never said a word about it.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You didn't tweet it? You didn't post it on the gram.

[Adam Carolla]

The guy followed me around for.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

He didn't say, alicia, include this in the news.

[Adam Carolla]

The guy's like, I need to talk to Alec Baldwin, I need to talk to Kevin Costner, I need to talk to Bill Simmons, I need to talk to Jimmy Kimmel, and I need to talk to everybody about you so I can write this big long article about you. And God bless them, they all talked and everyone found the time and blah, blah, blah. And it's been out for two weeks. I haven't said a fucking word about it.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

And that's what's weird. Signed.

[Adam Carolla]

I didn't say a word about any of it, but somehow Donald Trump got hold of this article.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Oh, that's cool.

[Adam Carolla]

And then he physically took the paper and then he signed it.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Because he reads everything.

[Adam Carolla]

You are really great. Keep going, Donald. And then he signed it and then he sent it to me.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

That's nice. Yeah, I mean, the man does read everything. You know, he reads and watches everything.

[Adam Carolla]

Evidently he does.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

He loves to read. Like, I've heard that he likes to read, like a tangible paper. I've heard from so many TV hosts and producers, like, oh, the President was watching last night. And I'm always like, how do you know? And it's. He's connected to so many people in media. I think he has a love of media. He'll just text them and be like, I saw this segment. I liked this guest. I didn't like that person. It's great.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. So I just wrote. It was assistant that sent me this, but. But I just wrote, thanks, flatter, take the time, blah, blah, blah. But I should have wrote. I know the auto pen when I see it. That's what I should have wrote.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

And maybe I still missed opportunity.

[Adam Carolla]

It's less than 24 hours. I could probably text him.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You should totally text him that. Or you should text a picture of you holding it and being pointing at it with a.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, I don't physically have it. He took a picture of it and sent it to me. I don't have the actual.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

So it hasn't arrived yet.

[Adam Carolla]

I don't even know if it's gonna arrive. I don't know how. I don't know where. He knows where. She knows where to send it. Okay, well, I guess I should ask, right?

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Yeah, you should ask for that. That'd be cool to frame and hang up amongst other people.

[Show Announcer]

A narcissist would not only talk about it, but let's do. I would reverse FedEx. I would send a courier to the White House to get that and then get it to me as soon as possible.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I think you should frame it. You have so much old, like, cool paraphernalia from your career on all these walls in the studio. For the. That doesn't know. We should do a behind the scenes video of that sometime. And you should add that. You should totally put it in a cool shadow box frame like nice matte and hang it up.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna have to hit up his assistant and do that. I guess maybe they have a place to send it. I never really discuss the nuts and bolts of it. He signed it and then they took a picture of it.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Have your people talk to his people, Adam.

[Adam Carolla]

That's his first question. That's the way we're gonna have to do it. All right. There's a clip that I love. I guess I quietly appreciate things that are furthest from me.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Okay.

[Adam Carolla]

And I think maybe we all do. But let's say. Let's see. All right, let's see. All right. So if you make a good lasagna, let's say. And somebody goes, oh, man, my friend makes a great lasagna. And she's all. Takes her all day. She's 10 hours in the kitchen. Then you have a taste of that lasagna. You Taste it. Pretty good. But you make lasagna, and it's maybe not quite as good as yours. And so the other guy who doesn't make any lasagna goes, oh, my God. 10 hours in the kitchen. That's amazing. It's amazing. It's amazing. And I sort of like, I could ride a unicycle. So if I see someone riding a unicycle, I kind of go, meh, eh, eh. I feel a way about anything I can do.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

I just go. But if there's something I can't do, like, I go, oh, wow. You know, like when I say, like, ladies gymnastics, you know, I go, ooh, figure skating. Yeah. That's crazy. Oh. So I have a. I like to

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

surf, but I'm not good at surfing. And I always look at good surfers, and I'm like, damn it, how do they make it look so easy?

[Adam Carolla]

I have a great appreciation. The further away you get from me doing what I can't do, then I appreciate it more. And if I feel like I could do it, then I realize it has no value, teacher.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Cause neither of us want to do that, and we don't have an appreciation for it.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes, well, there's everything that falls in the middle. But there's another side of that, which is when people act in a certain way that I would never do, I'm always. I have a confusion about it. Like, God, please. Like, when they just do stuff for you to go, I would never, like, walk up to another table at the restaurant and go, excuse you. Could you turn your voice down just a little? Like, I go, leave him alone. Leave him alone. I saw a clip of someone fighting at a McDonald's, and the fight at the McDonald's was a guy who could be related to Dawson. I'm not sure.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

He does look like your long lost

[Adam Carolla]

brother and a sassy black woman behind the counter. And also, I worked at McDonald's.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You did? You and the president both worked at McDonald's.

[Adam Carolla]

Sorry. He pretended to work at McDonald's. Me and Kamala Harris worked at a McDonald's. Thank you. She has a picture to back it up. So I worked at McDonald's. And I remember very distinctly before I started, they showed you a training video. And in the training video, you go to jury duty.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

They're like, this is what you're gonna do.

[Adam Carolla]

This is what you're gonna do. And here's what not to do. I mean, it's such a giant corporation, they have to say, you watched a training video. Otherwise they're Gonna get sued by everybody. McDonald's must be getting sued by an employee every 10 seconds.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

It's probably more efficient for them to have you watch a training video than to send somebody, like, to send a physical rep to every location to train the new guys.

[Adam Carolla]

The training video is on a bunch of stuff, but one is what to do if there's a robbery, okay? And I remember now I'm 16, and I had my sort of joker, jack off, little voice in my head all the time. But I mean. I mean, I remember I knew I was a loser working at McDonald's, you know, but I was like, if they try to do some sort of takeover robbery of this place, I'm not going over the counter yelling, not on my watch. Because the thing is, like, don't fight these people. Give them whatever they want. Let them leave. I was like, in my head, I was kidding. I remember at the time, I was going, what do you mean? I'll jump in the van with them to get out of here. Like, there's no way I'm doing battle. I'm making 275 an hour.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Did you see Roofman?

[Adam Carolla]

No, I haven't seen that yet.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

It's pretty good. Yeah, sorry. This is what it's making me think of, robbing McDonald's.

[Adam Carolla]

All right? So I was like, I'm just giving them whatever they want. But this woman who works at the McDonald's is fighting this guy. So we'll just listen to it. It's pretty good. The guy, I guess he ordered a filet of fish and he got a cheeseburger and he's pissed.

[Ad/Promo Voice]

Now what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna give you a refund. I'm gonna show you better than I can. I want you to look at this. You know what it is? How you going to refund it for what? You don't know what it is? You got a bas? No, I found a double cheese, double cheese fish with extra tartar sauce. That is a cheeseburger. That's a cheeseburger. It was in that bag right there. I was 99. I've been out by. You do whatever you want to do, but I'm tell you something right now. Open that up. You don't need a receipt. No, you don't. It don't matter. I'm not going to refund you for nothing that I don't see. What a filet, What a receipt. I need at least a receipt. This is going to get ugly.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, hold on. It's already gotten ugly. But see, I work with town. So, like, okay, listen, let me. Give me five filet fish. Just wait outside, would you please? We'll bring it out there. Like at this loud fucking battle that only dumb people can have.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I feel like this person started recording after something had already happened, though. I mean, he sounds like Dawson's cousin.

[Show Announcer]

To be fair, it was lent when this happened.

[Adam Carolla]

I'm in the play of fish. Keep playing. There's a great thing. She also schools him up on like tartar sauce or something. It's kind of funny.

[Ad/Promo Voice]

I need at least a receipt. This is gonna get ugly. Okay, well, let it get ugly. And you don't need. Tartar sauce. That's big fat sauce. Know your sauce.

[Adam Carolla]

I love the fact when she gets all sassy and yells, know your sauces.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Know your sauces.

[Adam Carolla]

Know your sauces. That's her rallying cry. Like, God, someone's got to put that on a T shirt.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I'm going to cross stitch that.

[Adam Carolla]

Please go back 10 seconds. Like, they're getting it, by the way. He's going to make it ugly. She's like, bring it. I'm getting $11 an hour she had

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

to deal with all day to make her this upset at this one guy. I bet you she's just dealing with assholes.

[Adam Carolla]

I just like when she schooled them on sausage. Sausage. This is going to get ugly.

[Ad/Promo Voice]

Ugly. Okay, well, let it get ugly. And you don't need that. And listen, That ain't tartar sauce. That's Big Mac sauce. Know your sauce.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, you can pause it there. What kind of sauce is it?

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You look at it.

[Adam Carolla]

It's not tartar sauce.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

She says it's a Big Mac sauce.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, no, your sauce sauce.

[Show Announcer]

That's Big Mac sauce. It's actually called. Called special sauce.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

It is it.

[Adam Carolla]

You're talking to a guy who supplied 70 gallons of that in six months with a caulking gun. I know that by the way.

[Ad/Promo Voice]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Comes in from the gun.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Stop.

[Adam Carolla]

You gotta think about McDonald's. Like, what do you think? I'm back there with a wisp, you know, making it by.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

They claim that it's like, never frozen, always fresh.

[Adam Carolla]

Like maybe all those things, but it's in a caulking gun.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I don't like the special sauce. I prefer, like the. If I go somewhere and I want the special sauce, it's like chick fil a sauce is what I say.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, you don't know your sauces, all right?

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

No, I do know my sauces. I know what sauces I prefer.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, you don't know tartar from Big Mac sauce.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I just feel like, what grown man needs to escalate that much if he's pissed over.

[Adam Carolla]

I agree. I agree with that part. But I'm still. The person that works at McDonald's is kind of like, fuck it, whatever. This guy, I'm getting out of here in half an hour.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

But I wonder what that. Yeah, I think that she had a lot of interactions like this one throughout the day, and she's like, I'm not giving this mfer a discount.

[Adam Carolla]

I think you're being too easy on her. I don't care. I just. It's not your McDonald's. See, the whole thing about people is, like, I worked at McDonald's. I didn't think it was my McDonald's. I was just there getting $3 an hour. I wasn't gonna fight anyone over anything.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

But so you would let that guy. You'd just be like, here's your money.

[Adam Carolla]

I would, because what did the video

[Arynne Wexler]

tell you to do?

[Adam Carolla]

It's not my money. It's McDonald's money. And they got enough money. And I want to. This guy's a threat, and I want. I want to get him out of my face.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

They have enough money.

[Adam Carolla]

This guy's big, she's small, and he's threatening me, and I want to defuse the situation. So I just gave him a quarter pounder, a Big Mac, a filet of fish, and a large fry, and I

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

sent him out to the cinematic way.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes. Factor Factor. You're hungry, tired. There's some greens and chicken in the fridge. You should cook, and you just don't have it in you. For me, eating healthy isn't a willpower problem. It's a setup problem. That was until I found Factor. Factor solves that by delivering fully prepared meals. Design by dietitians and crafted by chefs. Straight to your door. My favorite is the roasted garlic chicken. So good. And it's got solid protein. Fresh veggies, and I can heat it in two minutes, and I'm good. Every meal uses lean protein, colorful veggies, whole foods, healthy fats. Ready in just two minutes. Factor shops, preps, cooks, and delivers so you can actually eat well. This spring, it's factor. Right?

[Ad/Promo Voice]

Pluto TV has thousands of free movies and TV shows.

[Adam Carolla]

We're coming at you with everything we got.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

This is the mindset free.

[Ad/Promo Voice]

This is the mantra.

With movies like Pineapple Express, the entire Star Trek film franchise and Gladiator, and TV shows like Survivor, SpongeBob SquarePants, the Fairly Odd Parents and Ghosts, Pluto TV is always free. Huzzah, Pluto TV. Stream now. Pain ever.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, news for you.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

So Jennifer Siebel. Sibel. Is that how you say it? Cybol Newsom. It's just as cray cray as her husband.

[Adam Carolla]

Mm.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

This video has been floating around where she talks about really an awful tragedy that I did not know where her older sister, when she was 8 and Jennifer was 6, was accidentally killed in a golf cart accident.

[Adam Carolla]

Yep.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Which is horrible. Just putting that out there. But the rest of this video is just insane. The stuff that comes out of her mouth.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, she's equally nuts as Newsome, and he has horrible, retarded, destructive thoughts, as she does, and super liberal thoughts. But as a politician and a dude, he can measure them a little bit.

[Ad/Promo Voice]

It.

[Adam Carolla]

She's not a politician, and she's a chick, so she just spits it. She just spits it out. Yes.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

He measures all of his comments. When he just disagrees with somebody and calls them gay or insinuates that they're

[Adam Carolla]

a child, he does a better job of measuring. When he sits down with Ben Shapiro and they start talking about women and men and sports, he catches himself and does, listen to me. Stop arguing with me. He does a better job. A better job. Not a good job. Just he can measure himself. Cause he's a politician. He's a dude. He can measure himself.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

But when he's with people that agree with him, I think the crazy really comes out. And I think in this situation, she's sitting with somebody. She's not sitting with you or Ben Shapiro. She's sitting with somebody that's nodding along with agreed.

[Adam Carolla]

But she also will say higher percentage of insane things out loud. That's all I'm saying. Or you can argue. You can say this is a lower percentage.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

This is pretty much this thing she's about to say is very insane.

[Adam Carolla]

Here we go.

[Jennifer Siebel Newsom (clip)]

I had to be very raw when we interviewed the young men who were juvenile offenders in San Quentin. I told them about my own loss,

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

where

[Jennifer Siebel Newsom (clip)]

I lost my older sister a few days before my seventh birthday. And I blamed myself for her death. And I showed that, by the way.

[Adam Carolla]

Hold on. That is the whitest thing ever killed by a golf cart. These other guys, they've all lost. They're all in San Quentin. They're all juveniles. So they all lost their sister to a stray bullet with guns activity, you know, gang activity or something. Nobody got run over. That is a white person problem.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

We should almost tick off how many crazy things are that she says, because it's like, what loss is she. Is she talking about crimes that they committed? Like if they murdered somebody, is it

[Adam Carolla]

really a loss they do this. Do you know what it is? A lot of Muslims are being discriminated because some people did something. Oh, you mean radicals flew commercial airliners into financial centers and killed 3,000 people? People. Some people. Something.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

That's. That's the first crazy thing that she said.

[Adam Carolla]

That's what they do.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Yep.

[Adam Carolla]

Okay, here we go.

[Jennifer Siebel Newsom (clip)]

My, my. I lost my older sister a few days before my seventh birthday. And I blame myself for her death. And I share that because that they ultimately were accused of committing these violent crimes and sentenced for life. And I think it shocked them that they. This blonde lady who was interviewing them had a similar story. Was perhaps in the wrong place at the wrong time.

[Arynne Wexler]

Similar.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

And same thing number three. Same thing number three.

[Adam Carolla]

I went down and many of these kids had killed a Korean liquor store owner by running them over the golf cart by mistake. And now they're in San Quentin and

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

she has a similar story.

[Adam Carolla]

Similar story. Right. Everything was a mistake. They're all there.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

If we're going back to narcissistic behavior as well, like talking about her appearance as she's talking about trying to help these young men in prison,

[Adam Carolla]

she's a white person with blonde hair. So there's more here. So she's clinically insane, by the way. This is why you don't want any of these people in power. Because she would let all of them out.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Cuz they're similar to her.

[Ad/Promo Voice]

Right.

[Adam Carolla]

They just made a mistake, was perhaps

[Jennifer Siebel Newsom (clip)]

in the wrong place at the wrong time, but wasn't punished the way they were because clearly it was an accident. But theirs was probably an accident too. So anyway, I share that just because I guess, you know, I quite enjoy spending time with people and being real and unmasking. She unmasked and showing them that it's safe to unmask themselves.

[Adam Carolla]

Where's a lot of makeup for someone unmasking? All right, so I would love to just go down the rap sheet of these fucking guys. Like stabbed a stranger in the neck on a bus.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

Ran over somebody after they were trying to steal their cattle.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

There was an accident.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

The only reason they're there is because they're not a white blonde woman.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, a Lot of it's timing. You're just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Remember the city councilwoman or the.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Was it up in Seattle?

[Adam Carolla]

No, this is Chicago. This is the one who was talking the. Oh, God, it's the ombudsman or whatever the. Who was that? Sorry, Andrew. No, but remember Chicago? That chick was up there and like. Well, she was just out enjoying the lake at night. Wrong time, wrong place, wrong time. She was murdered by an illegal. You fucking idiot. Alder woman. Sorry, Alder woman.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Remember I was talking about that poor young woman.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes, it could have been you or me. It was this little bad timing going on out there. Yeah, she was just murdered. Gunned down by an illegal immigrant. Executed in the back by an illegal immigrant. But wrong place, wrong time. And we don't know what happened. I mean, maybe she went out to the pier and startled the young lad.

[Arynne Wexler]

So.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Remember last week when we were in crisis?

[Adam Carolla]

People are not going to fucking rest until every homicidal maniac is running the streets.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Well, and it's very interesting that their narrative has changed from don't blame the victim to blaming the victim.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

And last week we played that clip of Amber Rose and Nick Cannon talking about how, like, she's hardcore conservative now. And ironically, maybe 12, 11, 12 years ago, she did kind of like the. What was it, the slut march.

[Adam Carolla]

I was a grand marshal. I wrote in a convertible Miata.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

And I remember at the time, a lot of conservatives were like, wait, what the heck? We're okay with women, like, dressing like sluts now? But her point was, it's not. You can't make the short skirt. It was the woman's fault argument. And at that time, before she became more conservative, she was saying that was what conservatives did.

[Adam Carolla]

Right?

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Oh, how the turns of table, to quote Michael Scott, that now it is literally the left that is saying, well, you know, it's that poor young woman's fault. They didn't even say poor young woman. It's just her fault for being where she was when she was. It's not their fault for having a porous borer that lets violent illegal criminals in. Yeah, it's the victim's fault.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, Andrew, you were saying it the other day, but many have said it. The sort of short miniskirt argument. She shouldn't have been wearing that if she didn't want to get raped. Which is something they argue against all time, but it's what they do. Now we have the clip of

[Arynne Wexler]

the

[Adam Carolla]

Chicago Mariah Haddon, Chicago Alder Woman. Yeah, it's all the same speech. It's some people did something.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

That was Ilhan Omar that said that, right?

[Adam Carolla]

Some people did something. And now they're now, by the way. And now the guy. Now the Muslims are the victim because white guys called him a towel head or something versus being dead. But this is her, which is great. Kids were out doing normal things people do in the neighborhood. And it sounds like this might have been a wrong place, wrong time, running into a person who had a gun. They might have startled this person at the end of the pier unintentionally. Huh? Startle the person.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

So if you. If I startle a man with a gun on the streets of LA is allowed to shoot, you gonna be like, you know what she was asking?

[Adam Carolla]

Only if you're running away screaming and he shoots you in the back.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Okay. But I might have startled him.

[Adam Carolla]

Somebody did something.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You know, if somebody jumps over my fence and then I threaten them with a gun and then they start to run away and I shoot him in the back, I would go to jail.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, yeah.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

But that guy gets defended by idiots politicians after murdering a young woman.

[Adam Carolla]

That's lovely. That's how they look. They've been put in an unenviable position, which is they let in a bunch of illegals and then they declared their cities and states sanctuary cities and states. And then the illegals they let in who are seeking sanctuary in their states are killing Americans. And now they're in a weird position that they have to defend the illegal killers because that was their idea and really the reason these people are dead.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Do you think that our first person, or what is it? What does she call herself?

[Adam Carolla]

Partner.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

First partner thinks that she appears genuine in these videos. It's kind of like when Gavin said that he was coming to LA to work on the homeless problem and he didn't meet a homeless person.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, yeah.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You know what I mean? It's like they haven't been to the Dream Center. Ivanka frickin Trump has been to the Dream center. Meeting homeless people and handing out food. And they say that they care, but not seeing you do anything that actually shows that you care.

[Adam Carolla]

The optics are always weird. Like, remember during COVID and Nancy Pelosi was on like Jimmy Fallon show and she's like, let me show you my two walk in sub zero refrigerators whose combined worth is way more than your family's. I like chocolate. I like imported chocolate. I like special chocolate. It's like everyone else is sitting.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

It's easy to stay at home.

[Adam Carolla]

Everyone else is Sitting in their one bedroom apartment with no air conditioning, planning on getting divorced and day drinking, and she's giving us Willy Wonka's factory tour. And like, someone had to say bitch, literally. That is more refrigerator than most people's net worth.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

And maybe optically, with all the insider trading and everything, like, maybe that's not. Maybe you should go out to the

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

garage as you sit on billionaire row behind gates and armed security, get a little pissed off.

[Adam Carolla]

I don't know why people don't say, you dress to the nines. Lecturing people on what it's like to lose somebody or whatever. It's all kind of gross.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I think that we are all guilty of listening to the own confirmation bias that we want to hear and living in our own bubble.

[Adam Carolla]

Left, right, And I get it, but we don't have handlers, like, people consultants. You know, consultants have to go.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Like, consultants are just there for the paycheck. They don't give a shit about like.

[Adam Carolla]

But they should also be. Like, going to the French laundry in the middle of a pandemic is just not. It's not worth it.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I agree. But when you're in that bubble where everybody else wants to be in that crowd and hang out and do those things, and you yourself, as a consultant, want to be able to do those things, things you're not going to ruffle or, you know, as my grandma used to say, like, you're not going to bite the hand that feeds you. Well, that's why they nod and they tell her that she's doing a great job comparing her childhood tragedy to murders on death row at San Quentin. And they don't realize that the general public is like, what the actual.

[Adam Carolla]

This is why the job title needs to be changed. When I started my morning show taking over for Howard Stern, we had Jimmy Kimmel as a consultant, but his job was as an insultant. He would come in and go, today's show sucked. Fucking Adam. You talked about vintage car race for 22 minutes. I timed it. You're born the shit out of everyone. So really, what you need is an insultant. And that insult would go, you're not gonna come up there, dress like Barbie wearing 20 grand worth of jewelry. And they don't tell people about the haves and the have nots and all that. And Gavin Newsom, you can stay at home and I'll go get you some French laundry. What's your favorite soup? And I'll bring it back to your mansion. But you're not gonna sit in a group in the Middle of a terrace with 28 other people with everyone's got a fucking phone and they're gonna film you after you've locked everyone in their own house. No, no, no. Now that's a retarded idea. You go home. I'll go to the French Laundry.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Is that what you're saying?

[Adam Carolla]

It's an inside insultant.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

You see, liberals need conservatives. We should start a side hustle.

[Adam Carolla]

Insultant.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

We volunteers tribute to be the conservative insultants for liberals.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Only if they pay really well.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, one more story.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

One more story. So Billy Bush recently claimed that ABC had apparently 75 people in a division to, quote, unquote, get Donald Trump back during the 2016 election. He made the shocking claim on a recent episode of oh, hey, My former boss's show, Sean Hannity, where he revealed that ABC allegedly had that department and the Access Hollywood alum dish that ABC News thought that they. And he knows about it because he knew the guy that ran it. He said it was dedicated to basically getting Trump. And the big network news all have different voices all over politics, but not them at the time. Here he is, determination to find something. Imagine going around asking that question, who has something?

[Arynne Wexler]

Who has. Like, there.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

There's evil in that abc, even if

[Arynne Wexler]

it's somebody that we don't like.

[Adam Carolla]

They had a division dedicated with 75 people in it. Because I know the guy who ran the division which was dedicated to basically getting him. Wow. And all the big network news. Did I understand all of that? Like what you can do what? They have a voice and different networks have different voices.

[Arynne Wexler]

They're.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, the thing. This is all fine except for the part where at a certain point when Trump is being interviewed by Leslie Stahl or some fire, some Ted Cruz type comes in and goes, look, I get it. I know how you vote, sir. I'm a journalist. How dare you assume that you don't know how I vote. Listen, that's all you do.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Remember back in.

[Adam Carolla]

All you guys do is go after Trump. It's literally really, when you look at those things, it's like 97% negative reporting on Trump, 3% positive. Kamala Harris, 94% positive, 6% negative. Everyone knows what's going on but you.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

Yeah, well, and it's not just Trump. This is going back years and years and years. I mean, remember back to the candy Crawley, like shushing Mitt Romney when he was rebutting and following debate rules against

[Adam Carolla]

Barack Obama, he'd duct tape a dog to the roof of his car and kill him.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

A Binder full of women.

[Adam Carolla]

Binder, binder. He keeps swimming in a binder. And then he shaved that gay kid's head in high school. Except for we can't find that kid. That kid's probably living with Kamala Harris's McDonald's manager somewhere in seclusion. Jesus Christ.

[Co-host/Producer (possibly Dawson)]

I think what's sad, though, is that this stuff keeps coming out. I mean, we had the NPR whistleblower after the CEO of NPR was like, oh, no, we're fair and we're balanced and please don't take away our tax dollars. We represent the local communities, yada, yada. And then you have all these former NPR employees recently saying, no, no, no, like, it is such a bias behind the scenes. I think my frustration is we talk about this. Sean's talking about this, but you still have a vast majority of the American public that doesn't understand this.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, that's, that's the part. It's so blatantly obvious. If you just watch their coverage, how they vote and who they're rooting for and who they endorse, whether they say it out loud or not. All right, this Friday and Saturday, Salt Lake City, Utah, Wise guys comedy club. 6, 8, 30, couple of shows Friday, a couple of shows Saturday, and then Sunday, San Diego, Solano Beach. Dawson's gonna be there. Jonathan Kite's gonna be there. Rudy's gonna be there. We'll do a live show there to belly up. And then we'll see Alicia Krause in Phoenix. Coming up, Desert Ridge Improv. Five shows there. Merch store. We got a lot of good stuff there. You can check that out. Alicia Krause give you a plug.
