California, it's the Adam Carolla Show. Today's guests, podcaster Jesse Kelly. Plus the news with Alicia Krause.
- [03:02]
Adam Carolla
And now, Adam Carolla. Yeah, get it on. Got to get on. No choice but to get on mandate. Get it on and welcome to, well, whatever the name of the show is. Adam Carolshev. Jesse Kelly is here. Jesse's got a book out. We can talk about that. Syndicated, nationally syndicated radio show host. I hear him on Megyn Kelly's channel just about every day when I'm driving home. Good to see you.
- [03:29]
Jesse Kelly
That's an honor, man. I've been watching Adam Carolla since I was a kid. It's an honor.
- [03:33]
Adam Carolla
You know, it's interesting. Radio is interesting, and now it's, you know, Sirius xm, whatever, but it's still a knob, and it's still your car, and it's still you, and it's still your ears, and you're still sitting in traffic. So much of it just falls under the heading of timing. Like you're out here on the West Coast. Show, I think starts at 4, 4, 3. I kind of think I get the car driving home from here, and you're on, and I'm in the car for an hour, so I listen to what you have to say. But it's such a. Kind of reminds me of the old school radio when it was just sort of like if you got up in the morning, you heard the morning show, and if you worked the third shift, you heard the Late show and all that stuff.
- [04:20]
Jesse Kelly
It's so intimate, I guess I should say, for lack of a much better way to put it. I mean, TV, obviously, everyone does a video version of it. YouTube, I do it, you do it. Everybody has a video version of something now. But when you have a podcast or a radio show, you do things with people. You drive with people, you mow the lawn with people, you work construction with people, because you're in their ear. You're basically living life with people. And that's why people get close to podcasts they listen to. They feel like they know Adam Carolla because you're talking to him every day while they do life. And I've always liked that part of it. Long before I ever got into this business, when I was living a very normal life, which was most of my life. I loved the audio part of it because I could do it with somebody, whoever that somebody was.
- [05:07]
Adam Carolla
No, I completely agree. People think their goal is to kind of get on tv, but tv, when people watch you, they're sort of static. They're on their sofa and they're just sitting there. The podcast or the radio or whatever the audio is, is like people go, you're with me on my morning walk every morning, you know, or the ones. I don't know why, but I Had a really. The ones that go, I had a really shitty job and you made it better. You know, the guys driving the trucks all through the night and stuff. Like, I would look forward to listening to you on that radio. Driving my truck. You know, I loved it. I'm like, yeah, I had super shitty jobs. And, yeah, I'd always bring my radio, and my radio would keep me company during those shitty jobs.
- [05:52]
Jesse Kelly
That is so funny you brought that up, because those are my favorite emails I get because that's been my whole life. Right. I worked construction and all kinds of crappy jobs you could possibly imagine. I'm pretty fairly new to media, and that's someone who got me through my day, you know, whatever that is made my life better. So when you get that email of, man, I'm on my second shift, you're the only one who gets me through it. This couple just wrote me not long ago. They have this little family restaurant, barely getting by. They do dishes, husband and wife team. At the end of the night, midnight, they're doing dishes, and it's my show on in the Kitchen that, for me, is as good as anything else.
- [06:28]
Adam Carolla
That's awesome. I totally agree. Like, and it's weird, and, you know, maybe it makes us just sound like humble Bragg salt of the earth guys, but the, you know, like, oh, I love the man show, that's fine, and that's good, and I dig it. But the ones who go, I was going through a really shitty divorce, and you kind of got me through it. I just want to thank you. And it's funny. I'll always go, yeah, yeah, no, it's my job. And they go, no, thank you. Like, or, I have a really shitty job. I was just going through a bad time. Or you kept me company. I'd get up before anyone got up and go for my hikes, you know, and you were with me like that. The most supreme flattery I can ever hear is that, yes, we're in the kitchen, we're doing the dishes, and you're on in the back.
- [07:13]
Jesse Kelly
Yep. And, like, for instance, today I'm not gonna do my show because I'm out here in California doing the Adam Carola show. So I won't do my show, and I'll show up tomorrow to do my radio show, my TV show, and I'll have so many emails from people yelling at me from, being God, where were you? It sucks. And those are the biggest compliments in the world. You are part of their day. And when you're not there to be part of Their day. It crapped all over their day. And while I don't ever want to crap on someone's day, it lets you know, because you're sitting in here talking to yourself for the most part, right? Or maybe one other person in there, and you hope it's connecting, but you don't know. No one's standing up and cheering when you're sitting here doing. No one's laughing. You don't know if that joke landed or what.
- [07:52]
Adam Carolla
You don't have any idea. Well, it is. It is interesting because my. The first 10 years I was on the radio, it was just me and Dr. Drew. And then we had producer Ann and engineer Anderson and phone screener, whoever. We had Tara. Don't call me Tara, God damn it. I think is what I called her. But the point is, is those three on the other side of the glass hated me the whole time I was there. And they didn't like that I was there, and they didn't think I was funny. And Drew has no sense of humor at all. So I would be talking and talking, and I'd just be looking at these heads from Easter island just, like, staring at me. It was like looking in a. Like, it was like, I don't know, looking into a lobster tank, you know, that's how much react. Action I got. Like, just staring at him. And they'd just be staring at me the whole time. And Drew would be, like, just staring at me. And then they'd get a thing on the screen like I was in the middle of a rant, and the thing on the screen would go, take a call, you know, like mid rant, you know? And so then I would get out and I'd run into someone over the weekend. They go, oh, man, I was listening. Thursday. Man, that was such a funny run. You went. I'd go, what was that? That bit you're doing? The whole bit? I go, I don't know that anything was funny. Oh, it was such a funny bit. I was like, when you're staring at three people with their arms folded, giving you the stink eye and the guy in the room's not laughing. No. You don't know if something is making someone laugh or not, right?
- [09:17]
Jesse Kelly
No, it's not like when you're with your wife and you only know it's a great joke when she says, that's terrible.
- [09:22]
Adam Carolla
That's terrible.
- [09:22]
Jesse Kelly
Whenever you get that from your wife, you know, wow, I need to bring that to the air, because that's terrible. You know, that's gonna kill on the air.
- [09:30]
Adam Carolla
My favorite is when they don't get the joke. And then after you explain it to them, they go, oh, well, that's not funny. All right. You don't get to have it both ways. But you grow up. I grew up doing construction. I didn't grow up. I got out of high school and did construction. But you had the construction family, right?
- [09:49]
Jesse Kelly
Well, I grew up in. Well, I was born in Ohio, and my grandpa Jack Kelly did construction. And of course, my dad did construction. All his brothers and sisters did construction. I was born into that. Dad moved us to Montana when I was 10, but he moved out there and did construction. That was. That was what we did. It's just.
- [10:07]
Adam Carolla
And you gotta help. And you got a summer job. I mean, it's always. You gotta be on that site. Right?
- [10:12]
Jesse Kelly
I actually tried to avoid it. When I was 14, I was washing cars. Fifteen, I'm washing dishes. I'm trying to avoid that part of it. But the money was so good, you know, you're making. Back then, I think minimum wage was five bucks. Five, 25, something like that. And then construction job comes up, 16 years old, and they're gonna pay you 10, 11 bucks an hour. Man, you're.
- [10:31]
Adam Carolla
You're.
- [10:32]
Jesse Kelly
You're Bill Gates without the Epstein island at that point for 10, 11 bucks an hour. So into the ditch you go. And, you know, with my old man, it was always the worst job you can find for him. Make him go do it. Earn your kind of a waste. And that was. That was how I grew up. And I don't. I don't look down on it at all.
- [10:47]
Adam Carolla
I loved it. Did you pick up some skills along the way?
- [10:50]
Jesse Kelly
Probably not. Look, I could. I can handle all the basics of construction, you know, you need me to handle a whacker, you need me to handle a hammer, you need to hand me to handle a drill, any kind, wrenches, things like that. I can handle those things, but I'm not Bob Vila. I mean, I can't rebuild a car from scratch like you or something like that. The basics to get me through life without making me look like a woman. I picked up all those things. And I'll take.
- [11:14]
Adam Carolla
Did you play basketball? You're so tall.
- [11:17]
Jesse Kelly
For a while I'm 6 foot 8, but I'm really shockingly unathletic. You'd be amazed if you saw me try to run or jump or do it. And I'm probably better now than I was. So I played basketball just because I was tall and because my old man played. He was a great basketball Player, college scholarship, one of those types, one of those athlete types. And he wanted me to play. So I just played because dad wanted me to play. But I never really loved it. I played. I existed. I quit after my sophomore year of high school. The only person matter than the high school basketball coach was my father. But I was young and lazy and stupid, and I was more interested in beer and women than sports. And so I stopped doing something productive and moved on to unproductive things.
- [11:58]
Adam Carolla
And when did you join the Marines?
- [12:00]
Jesse Kelly
Well, after high school, I went to college for a year at Montana State University because that was the era. I'm grateful this era was going away, but that was the era where everyone has to go to college. Everyone has to go to college. You'll be a bum if you don't go to college. That kind of crap that everyone kind of sold people. So I went to Montana State University and I got a 0.0 grade point average my first semester at Montana State University. Not the most productive, but what a great time.
- [12:28]
Adam Carolla
What an absolute.
- [12:30]
Jesse Kelly
I did college, the whole Animal House route, as much as you could do college after that year, I looked in the mirror and decided, you really can't be a scumbag your whole life. You should probably do something to change your life. So no one even knew. My parents didn't even know. I walked down to the Marine Corps recruiting office, walked in and said, I'm signing up. And they said, what job you want? I said, I want to be in the infantry. I don't need your list of jobs. I want a rifle. Send me. Make me a Marine. And that's what I did. 19 years old.
- [12:58]
Adam Carolla
Where'd you do boot camp?
- [12:59]
Jesse Kelly
MCRD, San Diego.
- [13:02]
Adam Carolla
And how was that?
- [13:03]
Jesse Kelly
Oh, it was awful, but it's supposed to be awful. And, you know, credit to my father, who was a hard man. I don't want to make it sound like boot camp was fine because of that, but getting yelled at, getting in trouble, having to do physical things, it was nothing new to me. And it's not that you need to have that kind of background to get through Marine Corps boot camp or something like that, but, yeah, I saw what some of my friends in there went through who had kind of lived really slovenly lives and never gotten off the couch and never worked with their hands that had never even played a sport even poorly. And, man, there's a learning curve there that is brutal for some.
- [13:41]
Adam Carolla
For sure, if you played football and did two A days, and if you did construction, you could probably handle boot camps of Course, it's all, look, the tenants are all the same. Get up early, get yelled at, be in physical pain, have someone explain to you that there's more there, even though you think you're cramping up. And then yell at you some more. And then you actually do stuff you didn't think you could do. You kind of push through it. Like two a day. Football practices are like, they're just the military. It's just. Dude yells at you, blows whistle yells at you. You run laps and do shit you don't want to do. Construction's the same. And if you can kind of get through that, you probably make. Make it through boot camps. Having your dad was like a di, right?
- [14:27]
Jesse Kelly
Oh, yeah, no question. At the end of Marine Corps boot camp, they have this thing. They might have taken it away now because I knew they take it away for a while. A bunch of guys were getting hurt, legs broken and something like that called the Crucible, where it's. I don't remember five days, four or five days of just living hell. They take you out to the mountains and they basically try to kill you and starve you and they don't sleep you and you're doing all these crazy things. Well, I mean, I had a. Well, they called it a cover, we called it a cover. But a baseball cap essentially on. And the picture inside of it was my dad. That's what I brought along with me. I think it's the only time in my life I ever saw my dad get choked up is when I told him that after boot camp, whenever I wanted to quit or something like that, I'd just look at that, be like, no, he'll kill me. I better put it back on. Keep going.
- [15:07]
Adam Carolla
So you get out of boot camp and what after that?
- [15:11]
Jesse Kelly
After boot camp, Marine Corps stationed in 29 Palms, which. That was a really good time. Eventually we did Iraq. I was there for the invasion. Invasion of Iraq. So the very beginning of it, after I got back from Iraq, we did nine, ten months over there. I got out of the Marine Corps. My folks had since then started a construction company, moved it to Arizona. So I moved to Arizona, Tucson, Arizona, and just went back to work in construction. That's what I thought I was going to do the rest of my life. But I'm working out of town in construction. I start really obsessing on the radio again. Like I always had just audio format, that kind of stuff. And started getting super into political radio. Obama was running. I knew he was a scumbag. I'm famous for Making really big, dumb decisions. I decided I was gonna run for Congress down there. I ran for Congress twice, having never been involved in politics or run for anything. Actually won the Republican nomination both times. Almost beat Gabrielle Giffords right before she got shot. I was her Republican opponent. 4,000 votes decided that one lost. Moved to D.C. for a year to stay in politics. Hated living in that dump. Everyone was so rude. And the food sucks. You can't believe how bad the food sucks.
- [16:21]
Adam Carolla
Oh, in D.C. yes. Really.
- [16:25]
Jesse Kelly
It's always blown me away because my wife says I have an unhealthy obsession with food. And she's of course correct about that. So I really old governor place by the food options. All that money and all that power in Washington, D.C. and the Food is freaking dreadful. But that wasn't the main reason we moved. I quit my job in D.C. through the family in a minivan and just started driving across red America, just turning in my resume, looking for work. But what kind of a resume is that, right? I was a Marine. I have construction experience. I ran for office. What's that going to get you? Went clear to Dallas, Texas. We were running out of money. This is only like 15 years ago. 10, 15 years ago, running out of money. Decided we wanted to move there without a job and saw an advertisement on Craigslist for RV sales. I'm not even kidding. I'd never sold anything in my life. Most definitely didn't sell an rv. I'd never. I'd hardly step foot in an rv, except we had to live in one for a little while when I was a kid. Got the job, showed up in a suit and tie. Every other person in the freaking place waiting to apply had shorts on and tank tops, put on a suit and tie, khakis or something like that. When you show up for a job, it's not that difficult. Of course, I got hired on the spot. Every other turd with his vape pen got dismissed. I ended up being pretty decent at it. They made me sales manager after a year. That ended up moving me to Houston, where I sold RVs there for. Well, do I stop doing a real job?
- [17:55]
Adam Carolla
Yeah. He talked about how sad Obama turned out to be. And it's like, it's really weird because I was just watching a tape of him at Jesse Jackson thing. Like, he's weird. Like, you know, in radio formats, they have like the Quiet Storm. He's like the quiet race hustler. He's not big and blathering. He seems calculated. And also he speaks in a cadence where you go this guy's got wisdom, this guy knows what he's talking about. But all he does is race hustle, beat up this country and lie and he's the first black president. It could have gone so differently, you know what I mean? And it really could have been impactful. I believe a man in his position and he and his wife is worse than him. All they do is sit around and badmouth this country and talk about how racist it is. And it's really like, I'm not often disappointed with people, but it is historically really disappointing because he could have really been an agent for change. Like he could have really said, look, every country's got a pass and we all have our sins, we don't forget it. But I was a two time president. You cannot say this isn't the greatest country in the world and so on and so forth, but he doesn't miss an opportunity to bash his country and talk about what a piece of shit it is. And I'm also starting to think he's a shitty person. Whereas like at the beginning with politics, there's a kind of a difference where you go, good guy, good guy, but his message is wrong or his politics are wrong, but he's a good guy. I'm starting to think he's a bad guy. And I'm starting to think his wife's bad too. We'll play the clip from the Jesse Jackson funeral. By the way, his Jesse's son said, please, no politics in the speech. But he couldn't help it. But here he goes. In a time when it can be hard to hope, Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law, an offense. Poor black people, they spent their entire adult life just sitting in bleachers going, yeah, yeah, and a game they're not in, where they're not betting on it, where they're not going to win anything. They just sit there in the bleachers and nod and go, uh huh, uh huh. And wait. The one died. The one race hustler died. The new race hustler will come in and meanwhile you're in your 70s with your wig just sitting there going, uh huh, uh huh.
- [20:55]
Jesse Kelly
Well, it's the stereotype about them in the movie theater is real. And the point is it all comes back to the black church, which is really a call and response type church in this country. And that can take a wonderful form if it's a decent church, if it's one of these black liberation theology, commie Churches. It's a total disaster. But either it's very much a cultural thing where you're supposed to participate. I mean, people yell about black people in the movie theater, and I understand that. But for many people in black culture in this country, that's what they do. You're always part of the action.
- [21:27]
Adam Carolla
But he's just being told, you don't want. You're not wanted in this country, essentially. And then you just sit there and go, yep. Mm, mm. All right, well, let him go. He's such an asshole. By the way, another set back to the idea of the rule of law. I like the black folks like the rule of law. To common decency. Every day you wake up to
- [21:55]
Jesse Kelly
things you just didn't think
- [21:58]
Adam Carolla
were possible. Each day we're told by those in high office to fear each other and to turn on each other. And we are. And that some Americans count more than others and that some don't even count at all.
- [22:14]
Jesse Kelly
Right.
- [22:15]
Adam Carolla
Some only have five houses. Yeah. He's such an asshole. And he's such a. He's.
- [22:22]
Jesse Kelly
So
- [22:24]
Adam Carolla
there'd be a way that he could have done a lot of good, but instead he just causes more anger and division and then claims the other side's causing the anger in the division. What do you mean? You wake up in a country where people don't want you in this country. He's also an arrogant douche. He is as well.
- [22:47]
Jesse Kelly
Well, he's really good at something that actually. Which is funny. His wife is not. Michelle Obama was long thought to be a dangerous person if she were to ever run as a Democrat. And the truth is that that was never founded. What Barack Obama is good at is what Gavin Newsom. I heard you ranting about Gavin Newsom. What he tries to be at, what every major Democrat tries to be good at today, and that is this. How do I signal to my rabid America hating bunch of savages base in the Democrat Party, the core Democrat voter? How do I signal to them that I hate America like you do? If you give me power, I'll take a fat, steaming dump all over it as fast as I can, just the way you want me to, while at the same time taking relatively low information. Normie voter. And not freak them out by openly embracing all the hatred and division and horrible crap you're going to do? That is a very, very difficult line to walk. You see all of them practicing how to do it. I brought up Newsom. He's trying very hard and failing right now to do that. How do you walk that Tightrope of. Hey, Savage. I hate the place, I'll burn it down. Nor me. I'm a normal dude, just an average dude. I love the country, but we'll just got some problems, fix a couple things. That's a tough tightrope.
- [24:08]
Adam Carolla
I agree.
- [24:08]
Jesse Kelly
And the reason he did so much damage in eight years is he is the most talented one I've ever seen at walking that tightrope. He's very good at it. His wife can't do it. It just. The bitterness pours out of her. She's doing the podcast circuit, crapping all over the country. She could never do what he does.
- [24:25]
Adam Carolla
No, you're right. And it's funny because remember like 10 minutes ago, Tim Walls was like popping his head out from under the hood of his International Harvester. He's like, hey, you caught me gapping my plugs. Later on I'm going quail hunting. It's like, oh, that guy trying to. That guy's an insane radical captured sociopathic nut job who's down with every radical insane idea you've never wanted. You couldn't imagine living in his United States, but he had to come across as the guy who likes to hunt and gap the plugs on his International Harvester. Right? Why? You have to ask yourself, what's with the facade? You know what I mean? Why are you trying to come across as a regular guy? Why are you trying to convince everyone you're regular or just anyone you're not? This weird, aw, shucksy kind of thing? So you're right. Women have a difficult time. They can't even control their face. If you watch the View and you have somebody come in and sit in between everyone, Dean Cain comes on, starts talking about conservative politics, their face can't control. They're like, oh, whoa. You know, it's like a guy can keep that sort of SM. You've sold RVs, you know how to keep a face on. You know what I mean? Like a guy can control. So Michelle Obama goes on those podcasts and she can't control her face. Her attitude is he's equally as shitty as she is, but she can't control herself.
- [26:11]
Jesse Kelly
That makes him infinitely more dangerous. He's much more clever, much more charming,
- [26:15]
Adam Carolla
and he comes across is. His cadence is scholarly. Things seem sorted out. It's all part of the ruse. But at the end of the day, does he hate this country? What is he at the end of the day, cuz you're like, what is the plan? Just to literally talk shit everywhere you go about this? Country.
- [26:41]
Jesse Kelly
Well, that's why he did so much damage is look, we've had a million good presidents and crappy presidents in this country's history, Democrats and Republicans, you can go all down the list. Barack Obama is the first and in my opinion only one we've ever had who has a real genuine hatred for the country. Joe Biden, you know, as much as he could ever think, had to pretend to hate the country. He's corrupt, he's a scumbag, but he doesn't have some America hatred at his core. You know, all the way back to it's. But Barack Obama. And a lot was made of it in hardcore right wing conservative circles when he was running. But of course the mainstream media ignored it. Barack Obama's entire background, the people who guided his life were people who hated the country. Frank Marshall Davis, one of his key mentors, had a communist number. He had a communist membership number. He was a card carrying member quite literally of the Communist party. Those old videos of Barack Obama's pastor calling it the US of kkka. He stayed in that church because that's how he thinks. I went to a church one time, the pastor got up and said one freaking thing that I thought was mortifying. I got up and left. Barack Obama sat there for 30 years because that's how he thinks. But he was smart enough and clever enough to know you are never going to make it into high, high office in this country until you figure out how to cover that crap up and lie. Once you get elected, then you can start shoehorning in all that America sucks stuff. But when you're running for office, you better be able to sell it to the normie family sitting there who cares about gas prices and the cost of bread. You better figure out how to make them think that you don't hate the country. And that's what he's so good at. And that's what other Democrats have not been able to figure out so far.
- [28:29]
Adam Carolla
Right? So it's this thing that I've, I've, I got a front row seat to it because of my family and my mom and her mom, my grandmother, they hated this country. But nobody ever says it, they just talk about the potential. And so what it is, is like, you know, it's like, oh, slavery and Trail of Tears and Japanese American internment camps, like every, everywhere they go that's all they talk about. But there's great love and it's sort of like, you know, what's your wife's name?
- [29:08]
Jesse Kelly
Aubrey.
- [29:08]
Adam Carolla
Aubrey. So it'd be like me Going, you know, Jesse loves Aubrey even when she burns the casserole, which she does. I mean, you have to admit we'd all like to turn a blind eye to that burnt casserole. But I can close my eyes and still smell that tuna crying out for help. And Aubrey, God bless her, there's great love there. But can't drive a minivan. Remember that? Remember she told of the Aerostar back in about four years ago? Damn lucky the kids weren't in the car. Anyway, great love. It was great love because she's a wonderful wife and she's a wonderful mom. But forget about dinner. Lunch. Ever had one of her sandwiches? Head cheese and pimento loaf? No, thank you. But there's great love, Aubrey. This great, great mom, this great, great, great wife. Great wife, can't pick a movie to save her life. Last few movies we did go to, she wanted to see. We had to leave in the middle of it. That Wuthering Heights thing, that was some bullshit right there. Anyway, couldn't get our money back. Anyway, great love. She's a great woman. Great woman. Let me just tell you all the shit she's done wrong for about 45 more minutes. But there's great love.

Jesse Kelly
It's exactly what they do. And it really does sadden me cuz in the end I really just care about the country. And Republicans are such scumbags so much of the time that I have such a big problem with. But the only other alternative because we have this horrible two party system is open America hate. And we can't survive like that. I mean we honestly, we can't survive long term unless that, that part gets fixed. You can't survive like that. How did we get to a place where this percentage of people in the United States of America luxuriate in a standard of living that they do not fully appreciate. And maybe that's it. They don't appreciate it. People think about, well, Europe. You can go to Europe. You know who gets to go to Europe and enjoy the same standard of living? Super rich people. Normal people in Europe don't have air conditioning, okay? They don't have washers and dryers. They don't have all the things Americans take for granted because they don't know any better. But we have legions of kids in this country now, adults who are educated in government schools. And you already nailed it. You go to government schools and you learn that American history is slavery and the genocide of the Native Americans and the Trail of Tears. And we'll wrap up this semester by civil rights and we were treating black people like crap. All right, guys, that's American history. Anyway, have a good one. I'm glad we didn't get political here. And we have legions of kids already prepped to hate the country. And then you walk onto a college campus and every single poll shows the longer you spend there, the more you white America. If you have a little college, you might have a chance. Bachelor's degree. It's a coin flip. Anything beyond that, you're gonna be to the left of Mao by the time you hate it. And you'll spend the rest of your life trying to burn the country to the ground. That is a huge problem for a higher education system.
- [32:08]
Adam Carolla
You're essentially training people to hate the country and then hate Israel or whatever as it goes. And embrace Islam. I'll play a clip. This was Sunny Haas and on the View. But here's my whole thing. You cannot convince me that you love this country, even though you would say I love this country when everything that comes out of your mouth is, is this.
- [32:38]
Alicia Krause
This is a country based on racism and slavery and founding it. Founded in it. There is systemic racism and misogyny and misogyny. And there are people that no one. I've never met anyone that raises their hand and says I am racist. However, there are people that seem to be able to look the other way when it comes to racism. So you have a president who traffics in misogyny, who traffics in. In xenophobia, who traffics in sexism. And won. And he won and won against a black woman. So don't tell me that this country a black woman. Don't tell me this country is ready for a woman. Hillary Clinton was one of the most qualified people. Let me finish my sentence. Well, I got into.
- [33:30]
Adam Carolla
She's qualified.
- [33:32]
Alicia Krause
She's more qualified than any man she's run against, in my opinion.
- [33:35]
Adam Carolla
And she lost to a reality talk show host.
- [33:39]
Alicia Krause
Qualifications are not what decide the presidency. Right now should tell us that. There's a lot of factors that do. And she had years of. She was dragged down by her husband's baggage. A Clinton. There's a reason why this country has only had one black male president. There's a reason we will see another black male.

They just talk about racism. It's like. It's so. First off, it's a little boring at this point. You know what I mean? Like, you've gotta. You know, there's nothing more you remember. The ultimate put down is for a comedian. What when you talk to another comedian and he'll go, I used to do the road with this guy 15 years ago. I middled. He was a headliner back then. And blah, blah, blah. And he goes, I went and caught this guy's act the other night, same material. And then everyone just goes, that's sad, bro. Like that's the ultimate, the ultimate put down isn't he's not funny or he's an asshole or he fucked a cocktail waitress. It's like he's doing the same shit he was doing in 2007 when I was out. You know, that's the ultimate. Like your racism soliloquy that you've been doing since college is so boring and so pathetic in 2026.
- [37:34]
Jesse Kelly
But for these people, for those types right there, and for sadly many, many Americans, that idea that white men are inherently evil, that America is inherently evil, it's not the paint you put on your house. It's not the windows, it's not the refrigerator. It is the foundation. It is a foundational principle and it governs almost everything else they do. And almost everything they say it is built off of that. I can change out the paint and I'll be fine on my house. It'll cost me a little extra, especially nowadays. But if I have foundation problems, if somebody, for instance, destroys my foundation, I don't have a house anymore. I don't have paint, I don't have a stove, I don't have drywall. I don't have anything else. The hatred of white men and the decision that the American born white man is the spawn of all that is evil and America itself is a spot of all that is evil is a foundational principle in the Democrat party today. And if you were to actually be able to reach into the very tiny mind of Sunny Hostin or any of those other hags on the View and you could actually remove that. If you could physically remove it, you would probably have to put that person in an institution of some kind because their entire worldview would collapse. It's why you could point to them, and I'm sure people listening to have done this, you could point to them any fact, any stat, any, anything that should put a pin in this, should. This should shoot this down. You'll never believe this again. You can point, you can point to it. Here's a fact. What are you talking about? And they will never acknowledge it for the same reason people who get sucked into false religion will never acknowledge it. Because if I acknowledge that this part of it is wrong is factually incorrect or untrue, then my whole world comes apart and people will defend a lie till they're dying breath to avoid having their entire world come apart. It is foundational for them. And that's what's very damaging.
- [39:29]
Adam Carolla
No, very well put. And yes, it's not about correction or a statistic, it's a foundational belief. Now, they're always atheists, but this is their religion, of course. And when you start messing with people's religion, they get violent about it. And also when your religion is either climate change or systemic racism or Covid, it's always invisible. You can always push it out there. They are the first people that make fun of a guy who is a religious Christian, but they have their own religion and it's deeper and wider than Christianity or the Bible or the Torah. It's. It's who they are. And it's not that they got away from traditional religion and nothing took its place. It's this took its place, of course. And they can't be talked out of it with any kind of statistics. By the way, the whole climate change thing, they've got enough information in the last five to 10 years that if they were reasonable and they weren't fanatic religious about climate, that they could start thinking a different way or even acting a different way. Like not flying private so often.
- [40:55]
Jesse Kelly
Yeah, well, like, look, climate's a great example of this. The glaciers are still there. The polar bears haven't gone extinct yet. There's no overheating of the earth or over cooling of the earth. It doesn't exist. But if you take that away, then someone's entire existence disappears. And look at their heart. They're all communists. I mean, people don't like that. But that's the bottom. They're communists. Many of them today, to their credit, will admit that's what they are. Marxists are communists. The Black Lives Matter founders will come out and admit they're trained Marxists. And communism is a religion. It is not a political ideology. The first thing they did in the Soviet Union is they killed all the priests, raped all the nuns and killed them too. The first thing that Mao did in China, he went to the Buddhist temples, killed all the. Killed all the monks, tore down the temples. In communist Spain, they did the same thing. Gang raped the nuns, crucified the priests. Over and over and over and over and over again. Communists wage open warfare on whatever the established religion of the country is because they view it as a competing one. It is a competing religion to them and they know it. Communists know it. They don't want to announce it to everyone else. But communists know it. They know it full well.
- [42:00]
Adam Carolla
You know, it's funny, as I was thinking, about it. They would be the first people to make fun of somebody who talked about the Rapture. Like, if you told Al Gore, listen, I'm selling everything and going up to the mountain this weekend because the Rapture's coming on Sunday, he'd laugh his ass off. But Al Gore has been doing that, but with polar bears and ice caps for 25 years. He's been doing. Basically, they do their version of the Rapture, except for they act like science is backing them. And they would make fun of you and your rapture. But it's the same thing. It's just one's an atheist and he's using climate, and the other's a religious person and using the Bible and, you
- [42:48]
Jesse Kelly
know, the giveaway for the climate changers is the bet. This is the best part of it. It's always 100% of the time. There's never been an exception. It's always something you can't see. Well, you haven't seen the North Pole. I know.
- [42:59]
Adam Carolla
I haven't, no. That's where systemic racism came in. Because once we got rid of all the actual racism and every law as well, they then explain, yeah, yeah, this is like radon gas. It's invisible.
- [43:14]
Jesse Kelly
You don't know it.
- [43:15]
Adam Carolla
You're being poisoned by it.
- [43:16]
Jesse Kelly
I forgot about radon back in the day, the TV commercials. You better detect radon, man. I totally forgot about that.
- [43:23]
Adam Carolla
We got away from radon and we went to vaping. Oh, yeah. Now we don't like brain poison. Nick Dean, by the way, if you find one of those, remember we played the brain poison with Dr. Drew on it. If you don't think the science and the food pyramid and Covid and all these assholes are lying about everything all the time. They went nuts on vaping, like, five years ago. And first off, nicotine's inert. It's not bad for you. Water vapor doesn't hurt you. A lot of people got off of cigarettes through vaping, so. Actually, guys like Dr. Drew like vaping because it gets people off the actual cigarettes and onto vaping. But they would call it brain poison. I think in this spot, when it's nicotine, they're not talking about pot. And by the way, most of these assholes would rather the kids smoke pot than vape nicotine, which is totally insane. But, yeah, I think we found. We'll show Jesse and we'll have a laugh. Also, yes, you're right in hating this country. I'll play you this Charlize Theron actress, but all three of her kids Are transitioned or whatever they are. They've all gone. But she did a thing. And people should be nauseated by this. The worst. I'll tell you the worst. Okay, here's the worst. We may dislike Biden, but the worst are the people who came here, like Ilhan Omar. The people who were saved by this country, who come here and never stop beating up this country. Right? That's, to me, the homegrown ones, I don't like. But if you came here from South Africa, like Trevor Noah or Charlize Duran, and then you just come here and you just bash this country while you make millions of dollars, that drives me insane. I'll play the. This is, like 5 years old. This is brain poison, which is vaping, which. They don't have any science to back any of this up. They just do their thing. All right, we'll play, By the way. Okay, Winston Churchill. Smoke. Wait, Trey, what are you doing?
- [45:55]
Jesse Kelly
Hey. Yes. What is going on?
- [46:02]
Adam Carolla
Leave me alone, D. And you have my room. Get out.
- [46:05]
Alicia Krause
Andy, you're not lying. I didn't say anything. Yes, you did.
- [46:09]
Jesse Kelly
What?
- [46:10]
Alicia Krause
You did.
- [46:11]
Adam Carolla
What happens to people when you take away their nicotine, by the way? This is what gets. They get ornery. Leave me alone. I'm vaping. Nicotine equals irritability. Headaches.
- [46:31]
Jesse Kelly
Yeah.
- [46:32]
Adam Carolla
If you don't get any anxiety learning, certain mood swings. Brain poison. All right. This doesn't make any factual sense at all. Nicotine doesn't do any studies now say it's probably good for you. It's basically like saying caffeine is brain poison. This is what we pay for. And then they run these fucking spots. And then dumb women watch these spots and freak out over nicotine. There is no nicotine. Brain poison. Well, we just pay the government money. They make these commercials, and they just give it to us like they give us a fucking food pyramid.
- [47:09]
Jesse Kelly
We live in a country of credentialed morons now. And this is the problem. Speaking of commies, the long march through the institutions is something they talked about forever. But, yeah, I mean, we saw this during COVID where doctors are saying that. Well, the CDC said, well, this and that. Well, if you're a scumbag and you want to hurt people or take over the country or be your tyrant or control people, and you keep running into institutions who tell you, no, that's wrong. No, you can't. With a solution. It's simple. You simply conquer the institution and have the institution work for you. When we walk in the doctor's office and you look above his Desk or wherever you happen to be. And you see, wow, he's got Harvard Med. I don't even know if Harvard has a med school. I assume they do, but he's got a degree from Harvard Med. Yeah, that must mean something. And you can. I mean, if you really want to freak yourself out, ask yourself, well, why does that mean something? Have you talked to a single one of his professors? Do you know anything about the last in his class? None of those things even go through your mind. He has a certificate from the institution that means he should be trusted. And that's what has been destroyed in so many areas in this country, including crap like that, where you have people. No, by doctors. Nine out of ten doctors will tell you this. Well, nine out of ten doctors are scumbags and morons and robots who do whatever someone tells them to do in this country.
- [48:25]
Adam Carolla
And the publications are jamming. All the rest of them are all destroyed now, too. So I was talking about Charlize Theron, and I think I liked a tweet, and we'll show it to you, but I think, like three of her kids. But I'll tell you what drove me nuts about her. She has a quote, what drives me is my children are all queer. That's what drives her. My eldest child is non binary. Okay? So we don't know what their oldest child is. My son is gay. My youngest is fluid. And, you know, they are my kids and they teach me every day how to tuck your junk. What are you learning, by the way? When anybody goes, my kids have taught me, I always dismiss them as lightweights. My kids, they've been on this planet for 19 years. They haven't taught me shit. Except for kids are expensive. That's basically. It's all they've taught me. But Charlize Theron did a thing, and maybe you can find the quote, Andrew, but this drives me nuts. She's from South Africa. She comes over here, she makes millions, she adopts a black child and then explains there's cities in America. She won't take her black child, by the way, inferring that the Klan would hunt for them. Now, the only cities a black child shouldn't go into is cities with a bunch of black children because they could get shot by another black child. But there's no city where her. And by the way, she's staying at the Four Seasons and has a driver and security detail and what have you. But Charlize Theron, when you're trying to explain how racist this country is, even though you fled South Africa. And you adopted a black kid. Why don't you name the cities you're speaking of? Don't just say there's some cities. What about other actresses who have a black child? They would like to know not to go to those cities so their kid wouldn't have a target on their back because they're black. Which is, by the way, it's repulsive and it's gross. But also statistically, the only cities your kid has to worry about are ones with lots of black kids who don't have dads and have guns.
- [50:46]
Jesse Kelly
Yeah, all these people live in white neighborhoods. Every single one of these people live. And in fact they seek out white neighborhoods. Every single one of them do. That's 1, 2. The reason historically, the most vicious, violent communists have always been women is because a woman's nature is motherly. That's how God made them. They're supposed to be nurturing and motherly. That's why they make the best nurses and things that they've always been this way. Well, what they do, what happens to these women like Charisse Theron, is they make her the mother of the revolution instead of the mother of her children. What kind of spawn of Satan witch would groom her own kids into just destroying their bodies and their minds and then not only do it to go out and brag about it as if it was virtuous, but in cities like Carthage, well to do, families would take their seven year old child and walk them right up and throw them into the flames and listen to them scream as they burned. And nobody today looks back and, and can explain why they did it when the explanation is simple. They're serving a higher power and the sacrifice that child serves to higher power. How could you pillage your own children and mutilate them and then brag to the freaking public about it? Because she is religious. Why do you hate America? Because her religion tells her to. Why did you mutilate your kids? Because her religion tells her to. And she'll brag about that because she thinks it makes her sound virtuous. She's become the mother of the revolution. And there's nothing you will kill faster than a mother trying to protect her young. A mother like that will do anything to protect her baby and her baby. It's not her kids. That's, that's what said. She actually snatched a poor kid out of Africa and did it to him. That's just the frigging worst thing in the world. He escapes Africa and comes over here and it's worse.
- [52:28]
Adam Carolla
Well, to be fair, I don't know if her kids have undergone any surgeries, but they certainly have it circled on the calendar. It seems like some of them, Christmas time, Elle magazine, she gave this quote, and what year was that? Now I seem to recall it was. I don't know, it was probably eight years ago. It always makes me angry. All right. She's being interviewed by Elle magazine. And again, I don't know. Could have been six years ago, could have been 10 years ago. It doesn't really matter, she says, but racism is much more alive and well than people thought. We can't deny it anymore. Like, first off, you guys never stop talking about it. What do you mean, deny it anymore? We have to be vocal, continues the star. So she keeps talking. There are places in this country where, if I got a job, I wouldn't take it. I wouldn't travel with my kids to some parts of America, and that's really problematic. This is eight years ago. So she comes here from South Africa, adopts a black kid, and then explains she wouldn't go on the set. Meaning, first off, okay, first off, these people are all liars. You wouldn't go to Atlanta to shoot on a soundstage, to shoot Fury Road Part 3 on a soundstage in Atlanta and have your young black child stay with you at the Waldorf with your security detail and your private driver because the kid's black and would be executed for being black, by the way. Tell us. There are places in this country where, if I got a job, I wouldn't take it. She'd say no to the job. I wouldn't travel with my kids to some parts of America.
- [54:35]
Jesse Kelly
It's actually just like the climate change ones. It's just on the other side. I can't tell you where it is.
- [54:40]
Adam Carolla
You just can't give us the name of the city, bitch. Or go back to fucking.
- [54:44]
Jesse Kelly
Well, I don't want to get.
- [54:45]
Adam Carolla
How about you take them to fucking Durban?
- [54:47]
Jesse Kelly
You. Yeah.
- [54:48]
Adam Carolla
By the way, fuck up.
- [54:49]
Jesse Kelly
Atlanta is a super hostile place to black people, as most people know. Definitely not a very welcoming Fulton County, Georgia. Definitely a hostile place to black people. I'm pretty sure every single person in elected office is black there. And. But. But they'll. They'll never name it for you. They can't ever name it. They'll never give you the specifics because words are just weapons to them.
- [55:09]
Adam Carolla
What can any everyone use? Be as generous as you can. Where would Charlize Theron not be able to go because her black kid would physically be in danger if she went and shot in that city now, she would pick a city with the highest white population, I'm guessing. Except for that wouldn't be statistically where her young black child would have the highest likelihood of being killed.
- [55:39]
Jesse Kelly
Yeah, so she. But she has to continue the lie. Her child, none of them, no matter what color they are, have never run into racism or oppression or anything like that. I mean, they're going to. Now that she's completely ruined them, they're gonna have a bad day at private school. At some point in time, she's gonna cause a stink about the whole thing. But they'll never encounter that because she's priced herself out of that. It'll be private schools and like you said, the Waldorf and gated this while at the same time, America hatred all over the place about what a horrible place this country is and how bad it sucks now. Which is actually hilarious because she is South African. And South Africa at one point in time, in the not too distant past, was a lovely place. And then a bunch of black race communists took over the country. And now white farmers are being slaughtered to the point there are entire cemeteries there and we're having to accept refugees before they're killed by the black race communists in South Africa. And Charlize Theron would never in a million years live in that dump now. And she would happily have moved there 20, 30 years ago.
- [56:41]
Adam Carolla
Yes. All right, that's again, it's the Ilhan Omar syndrome, which is you moved here from a shithole and we saved you. And every time someone puts a microphone underneath your mouth, you simply talk shit about this country, which is sad and weird.
- [57:00]
Jesse Kelly
Well, that's why we bring them here. Well, that's why our dirtball politicians bring them here. And you can go back to philosophers as old as Plato discussing this evil people when they take over a country, will prefer the company of foreigners. Because a patriotic American, no matter where in this country, no matter what religion, no matter what color they are, a patriotic American does not want American politicians ruining the place. But you know who doesn't give a rat crap about that? Some dirt ball you just brought here from Somalia. You can hand that guy a hotel room, a welfare check, here's a $500 Visa card, and he will vote for you for the rest of your life as you destroy this country as fast as humanly possible. We just saw it in New York City. Now that they have this Mamdani get elected, everyone's marveling at it. Well, American born New Yorkers who aren't exactly Right wingers overwhelmingly rejected Mamdani. They wanted nothing to do with him whatsoever. But foreigners voted to put him into office.
- [57:54]
Adam Carolla
Why?
- [57:55]
Jesse Kelly
Well, you could sit and scream with those foreigners till you're blue in the face. He's gonna ruin New York. It's gonna ruin that. They don't give a crap about that. They know they got a welfare check coming. They found a more loyal voting constituency, and that's why Joe Biden got elected and brought in 20 million of them. They'll do the exact same thing the next time. They never have to stress about patriotic Americans. If you just go grab a whole group of people from some dump no one ever wants to visit and bring them into your small town so they can stab your kid and steal your welfare check, then they'll vote Democrat the rest of their lives, en masse. It's an awful situation. But foreigners, but evil tyrants and foreigners have been collaborating to do that since before America began.
- [58:36]
Adam Carolla
Yeah, I mean, it's really sad because I think we always assumed there were sort of limits. Like you'd go, look, we disagree on many subjects, but we do agree. We love this country, and we do agree on a secure border, and we do agree on education and things like that. And it's all been usurped and corrupted. Now. I really believe that there's a kind of a mentality which is, you know, you gotta think about Joe Biden. Joe Biden, when he takes office, is, I don't know, 78 or something. Whatever he is, if the whole thing burns down in the next five years, he's not even gonna see it, you know, so there's a kind of a mentality of like, I don't, you know, he's gotta raise his granddaughter in this shithole, but he doesn't know her. So you dodged that bullet. So there's kind of a thing where it's like, you're just gonna ruin this country. And here's what I'm saying. I thought we had a sort of gentleman's agreement, which is, you love the country, I love the country. We disagree on a bunch of stuff, but we do agree that we'd never do anything willfully that hurt this country.

Well, love of country or patriotism is one of those things that can be mocked, right? People mock it or think it's a cliche when it's actually the essential element to continue as a country. Just saw recently, it was one of the most devastating things I've ever seen. That actually reveals exactly what you're talking about. In 2001, 98% of Republicans were proud to be American, and 97% of Democrats were proud to be American.
- [60:25]
Adam Carolla
This is 98 and 97.
- [60:27]
Jesse Kelly
98 and 97. The Democrat number is the most important part. 25 years ago, 97% of Democrats were proud to be in America. Fast forward to today. They just pulled it again. 37% of Democrats are proud to be an American in the year of our Lord 2026. Now, what that is is a nation ending number. I'm not talking about next year or next month. I'm not trying to be apocalyptic. No country can continue on for another hundred or two hundred years if half the country is trying to burn it down. And the most naive person in the world today is the normie person who says, we all want the same things. We do not all want the same thing. We don't all want good schools. We don't all want criminals locked up. We don't all want immigration that's sensible of some kind. That is not what we all want. We don't all want that at all. One side is all screwed up and corrupt and stupid and that would be the Republicans. And the other ones are the spawn of Satan trying to burn the place down. This, these are the two sides we have to deal with. And it's, it's a, it's a society ending problem if we don't get patriotism back in. Because again, if you and I. Your studio is amazing, by the way. But if I start working here and I'm not applying for a job, but if I start working here and I say, I would like a new paint job there, and you say, no, I like this paint job we have, well, we both love the studio. We can work that out or not work it out. It's all totally fine. But if you want a new paint job and I want to burn the studio to the ground, now we have a really big problem and I have to either change or I have to leave. It's about way more than a paint job now. It's a crisis situation we are in. It really is bad.

Adam Carolla
There's a clip which is really eerie. It's Obama, I think, with his first term. But he says to a crowd, they're eight days away from fundamentally changing this country. What I'm saying to you people, if I say I look around the studio and I go, there's some room for improvement. I have some ideas. If I go, I wanna fundamentally change what's going on around here. Well, that means everyone's getting fired and we're tearing the place down. I don't think people really listened to him when he said fundamentally changing. Look, I think we can all be down with some improvement and some things around the margins. But no, we're America. We're not here to fight fundamentally change. The reason we're the beacon of light on the top of the hill for the rest of the world is because we do things this way. And Obama didn't get drunk and say it at a cocktail party. He yelled it into a microphone. Change and fundamental change. And the crowd went nuts, which is sad. So if you go, look, whether it's your wife or whether it's the center on your football team or the quarterback, if you want to fund, or your boss, if you're saying, I want to fundamentally change this, you're saying, whatever they've done and are doing is no good, and it's all got to be torn down and rebuilt working with somebody. You know, if I worked with a comedian and went, you know, I think we could do this and you could do that and be better, and this is kind of a tighter angle. But if I said, I'm gonna fundamentally change your act, that just means we're gonna take all your old material and we're gonna throw it away and we're gonna do something new. This is Obama. I don't know how many. 10 days, 8 days. We'll listen to it. Sorry. We are 5 days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America. Okay, first off, did everybody who votes for these assholes, did he change anything once the five days went up, but he said it. He said, we're five days away from fundamentally transforming this country. And the eyes of the ladies from the View would be getting rid of racism or, you know, something, something, something. But it's sad that so many people go for it. That's the scary part. Like, literally, my mom, before she died, basically just said. I said, I don't know, was it Gavin Newsom, Larry Elder, whatever? And I said, you know, I'll take Larry Elder. And my mom just went, I don't know who Larry Elder is, but I know who Gavin Newsom is, and I'm voting for him. And I thought, that bitch took it to the grave. She took her fucking retardism to the grave and by the way, canceled out my fucking tax paying vote. When your own mom cancels out, it's one thing when a foreigner does it, but when your own mom cancels out your vote. Jesse.
- [65:23]
Jesse Kelly
Well, I think you nailed it when you said it that people voted for him. I Mean, the things people get away with saying now that don't end their political career is staggering. I mean, it's staggering. If you had stood up in 1990, we don't even have to go back to Ancient History, 1980, 1990, as a Democrat running for office and announced that you intended to fundamentally change the United States of America, Democrats across the country would not have voted for you. A Republican would have won that election in a landslide because they would have thought, that's a turnoff. I can't get that. But the ugly truth is that no one wants to admit, and it sucks. I don't like saying it, but it's true, is we do have a representative government and in this country they represent us quite well. You point to Ilhan Omar, while she's an idiot, she hates America. She's a scumbag. Yeah, that's her district. That's the people in her district. Her vote. AOC is stupid. She hates the country. She's a socialist. Yes, the morons in the Bronx, in her district, that's who they are. They're morons. They hate the country. They're socialists. That's what they vote for. We have Democrats today repeatedly. This is a Democrat talking point across the United States of America. Speaking of immigration, who will get up on national television and say, immigrants build America. Immigrants build America. At any other point in human history, Republican or Democrat, if an American politician said that to his American constituents, he would not win the next election. I don't care if it was dog catcher or president of the United States of America. Democrats are so comfortable, they fill the country up with scumbags that they feel totally comfortable saying that. And they never lose an election. The problem is the people, and that's what we have to work on.
- [66:58]
Adam Carolla
Yeah, well, the slaves built everything and then when they were liberated, then immigrants.
- [67:03]
Jesse Kelly
None of that's true, by the way. They just make all that. None of that's true.
- [67:06]
Adam Carolla
Listen, they just say stuff like walls don't keep people out, they keep people in. And would you rather have a living son or a daughter that committed suicide? Like they just have these nicotine's brain poison. They just make up shit and they spat it, they shoot it out of their salad shooter face and people nodded and none of it's true.
- [67:29]
Jesse Kelly
It's awful. People love slogans too, when they get too dumbed down. And again, that stuff sells to people if you're in a district or a town or something like that. That kind of bumper sticker slogan crap, really, it's always sold in human history. But the dumber your society gets, the more you can get away with that. I'll come back to Gavin Newsom, who I know you were ranting about last hour. Gavin Newsom is putting that to the test in the same way Kamala Harris put that thing to the test. Can I just never say anything at all? Can I get away with never saying anything at all? And the truth is, you can mock him all you want, and I intend to do so. Maybe. Maybe. You might be able to get away with that and get pretty far. It might not be able to make you President of the United States. But even if he's never President of the United States, he's governor of the richest, most powerful state in the United States of America. He did all right for himself politically

Jesse Kelly
Hey, it's Dan.
- [70:37]
Adam Carolla
I got a bone to pick with you, brother.
- [70:39]
Jesse Kelly
Your. Your coverage and your talking points of
- [70:41]
Adam Carolla
Renee Goode and Alex Preddy.
- [70:43]
Jesse Kelly
Totally wrong.
- [70:44]
Adam Carolla
Renee Goode was driving a Honda Pilot.
- [70:46]
Jesse Kelly
That's an suv.
- [70:48]
Adam Carolla
Alex pretty kicked the light out of a Ford Expedition.
- [70:52]
Jesse Kelly
Not a minivan.
- [70:52]
Adam Carolla
It's not a suburban. Thought you were a car guy. Just giving you. Love you. Bye. You can leave us a message at 888-634-1744. I got the cars wrong.
- [71:05]
Alicia Krause
How dare you, sir?
- [71:07]
Adam Carolla
Pilot is. That's not a minivan. You're right. Suburban expedition kind of close, but it's
- [71:14]
Alicia Krause
like, more of a minivan than the Tesla. Remember when Elon was like, oh, the Tesla. Like, whatever it is, it's gonna fit six people, and it's gonna be like our version of a minivan.
- [71:24]
Adam Carolla
I'm like the gull wing or the hawk wing or something. Yeah, see, it was originally the Mercedes. Made a gull wing sports car back in the day. And so he called it something other than a goal wing. Maybe it's a hawk. Whatever. All right. What do you got for news?
- [71:43]
Alicia Krause
We got some news. So you know Adam Schiff. Senator Schiff. D. Schiff.
- [71:48]
Adam Carolla
Good dude. Good dude.
- [71:49]
Alicia Krause
Love the sarcasm there. Unfortunately, senator of our great state of California, he walked right into a rhetorical trap set by your buddy Bill Maher over the weekend. I feel like we should just play the clip. So Schiff was there talking about how horrible Donald Trump is and criticizing him. And then this moment happened.
- [72:09]
Adam Carolla
This statement from the administration. The president had the constitutional authority to direct the use of military force because
- [72:15]
Jesse Kelly
he could reasonably determine that such use of force was in the national interest.
- [72:19]
Adam Carolla
That's too vague for you? Totally vague.
- [72:22]
Alicia Krause
Okay.
- [72:23]
Adam Carolla
Because that's from Obama about Libya. Well, Obama made the argument initial, boss. It's really kind of. First off, I hate hyperbole more than the heat of a billion suns. I hate hyperbole more than being ground under the boot of the biggest man on the planet. I hate hyperbole.
- [72:51]
Alicia Krause
Okay?
- [72:52]
Adam Carolla
I hate hyperbole more than any father ever hated the man who executed his son in cold blood. I hate hyperbole. You understand how much I hate hyperbole?
- [73:07]
Alicia Krause
I think I got it. Can you give me one more example?
- [73:10]
Adam Carolla
More than passion fruit iced. No, that's too far. I don't hate it more than that more than passion fruit iced tea, which, by the way, has gone away. It came.
- [73:22]
Alicia Krause
You don't like passion fruit?
- [73:24]
Adam Carolla
Nobody likes passion fruit.
- [73:26]
Alicia Krause
What?
- [73:26]
Adam Carolla
Nobody knows what passion fruit actually is.
- [73:29]
Alicia Krause
Also known as lilikoi.
- [73:31]
Adam Carolla
First off, it's flavorless.
- [73:34]
Alicia Krause
That's not true.
- [73:34]
Adam Carolla
It's flavorless.
- [73:35]
Alicia Krause
I have not had a ripe one.
- [73:36]
Adam Carolla
It's just pulp. It's just like white paper pulp. It's what they make notebook paper out of.
- [73:41]
Alicia Krause
Clearly have not had a ripe one before.
- [73:43]
Adam Carolla
Look, first off, spare me your euphemisms with your have you tried the honey crisp apples? Oh, shut the fuck up. It's a green apple and it tastes like shit. No, this is honey star grate crisp sugar apple.
- [73:57]
Alicia Krause
Okay, but back to hating hyperbole.
- [74:01]
Adam Carolla
Ruined iced tea.
- [74:03]
Alicia Krause
Uh huh.
- [74:04]
Adam Carolla
You wanna know the greatest moment of my life?
- [74:05]
Alicia Krause
Arnold Palmer's.
- [74:07]
Adam Carolla
It ruined two drinks.
- [74:08]
Alicia Krause
You don't like Arnold Palmer's?
- [74:10]
Jesse Kelly
No.
- [74:10]
Adam Carolla
But passion fruit iced tea, ruined iced tea and the Arnold Palmer. Oh, because now an Arnold Palmer with passion fruit tastes like shit. Look, it tastes like you put potpourri in a gym sock and just dunked it in warm water. That's what fucking. You wanna know the greatest moment of my life? What people talk about. Oh, what about the birth of your twins? I go top seven. Oh, what about winning the Toyota Grand Prix? Good. There's lots of moments. Well, star in the Hollywood walk of fame. Fine.
- [74:41]
Alicia Krause
Kind of cool. Yeah.
- [74:42]
Adam Carolla
But not as good as this moment. Not as good as the moment when I was across the street Mid Wilshire at Callender's, which, it was Marie Callenders, but they upscaled it and they called it Calendars. And I was eating lunch there after work at Kayla Sex. And I was sitting at the table and the waitress came by and she went. I go, could I have an iced tea? We have iced tea. Yeah, but do you have regular iced tea? We have passion fruit iced tea. I go, but do you have regular iced tea? No, we don't have regular iced tea. We have passion fruit iced tea. I go, why wouldn't you just have regular iced tea and passion fruit iced tea? But this is just passion fruit iced tea. I want iced tea. We have passion fruit iced tea. What happened that we got rid of iced tea and replaced it with passion fruit iced tea? Who wants this? Who wants passion fruit iced tea over regular iced tea? If you're ordering iced tea. And she goes, most of our customers prefer passion fruit iced tea. And literally, like an angel from heaven. Did you see Saving Private Ryan?
- [75:57]
Alicia Krause
Yeah.
- [75:58]
Adam Carolla
Remember when Tom Hanks was on the bridge, and he was about to be blown up by the Krauts, and it was just. Everyone was gonna die. And then a P51 Mustang just sailed right over his head and took those krauts right out with their 40 millimeter cannon. This angel at a table next to mine, as this woman was explaining to me, as the waitress was explaining to me that most people like passion fruit, she went. She goes, oh, hold on. Excuse me. Is it passion fruit iced tea? And the waitress, yes, we do. And she goes, oh, cancel my order. I thought it was regular. I go, another satisfied customer. It was like. It was so glorious. It was glorious. It was like. I paid the woman to sit two tables next to me and interrupt her discussion about how much everyone loved iced tea.
- [76:45]
Alicia Krause
And you passion for nice teachers. You love hyperbole or you hate hyperbole even more than that.
- [76:50]
Adam Carolla
He does this thing, and Elizabeth Warren does it all the time. She'll go, I went and listened to the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Pete Hegseth talk about the plan for the war. Total chaos. They have no plan.
- [77:08]
Alicia Krause
Yeah, it's worse than you think it is.
- [77:10]
Adam Carolla
It's horrible. They basically said their plan was to take military people and light them on fire and then just drop them in. And I don't know what hurt. And it's like, that's not what was said in that meeting at Fuck it all. You lie. That's all you do is lie. All he does is lie. This guy lied all the way through Russian collusion hoax and nobody cared.
- [77:33]
Alicia Krause
And also told us that Hunter Biden's laptop was a conservative conspiracy theory and
- [77:40]
Adam Carolla
all the other things. Yes. No one ever really grills him on it. But anyway, he's a dope.
- [77:46]
Alicia Krause
He says that it's really vague. The statement from the Obama.
- [77:49]
Adam Carolla
Totally vague. Okay, right.
- [77:52]
Alicia Krause
Totally vague.
- [77:52]
Adam Carolla
Totally vague. All right. It's just a partisan hack. That's fine.
- [77:57]
Alicia Krause
So I love that Don Lemon was sitting there too, and probably like, thank God he didn't do that to me.
- [78:03]
Adam Carolla
Yeah.
- [78:05]
Alicia Krause
All right, so partisan hack, Adam Schiff. Not surprised there. So speaking of more partisanship, on one side, of course, not the other. Jesse Jackson's funeral was over the weekend. And it's interesting because his family had asked people to, hey, let's not keep this political or let's keep this apolitical. I think the memorial service was outside of the Rainbow PUSH coalition headquarters in Chicago, and two lifelong Democratic ex presidents were kind of upset him. He talked about Obama, Biden, and Clinton. But first, let's show the before of what he asked how he started the day asking people, people to behave.
- [78:44]
Jesse Kelly
Do not bring your politics out of respect to Reverend Jesse Jackson and the life that he lived. To these homegoing services, I'm respectful and come to say thank you. But these homegoing services are welcome to all Democrat, Republican, liberal and conservative, right wing, left wing. Because his life is broad enough to cover the full spectrum of what it means to be an American.
- [79:27]
Alicia Krause
Yeah, okay, so he said that. And then afterwards, Obama said that there was a new assault on our Democratic institutions, of course hinting at Trump a lot. He also said that, quote, we are told by those in high office for fear to fear each other and turn on each other and that some Americans count more than others and that some don't even count at all.
- [79:46]
Adam Carolla
Biden played it.
- [79:48]
Alicia Krause
Biden doubled down and was bashing the Trump administration for not sharing, quote, any of the values that they have, apparently.
- [79:54]
Adam Carolla
Biden. What values does Biden have? I'm unaware of this. Get your son rich at Ukraine. Come on, big fella. Yeah, your values are enriching your family through connections in government. Those are your values as best I can tell.
- [80:11]
Alicia Krause
So, and then Clinton, however, this is according to tmz, kicked politics to the curb during his speech and said, talked about his warm relationship with Jesse Jackson. And then after all of that, Jesse Jackson Jr. By the way, I don't
- [80:26]
Adam Carolla
feel, I feel like Bill Clinton is not down with most of the horseshit, right.
- [80:31]
Alicia Krause
Obama's, he's a little more old fashioned.
- [80:33]
Adam Carolla
Obama's horrible and is in and his wife's horrible. But Clinton seems a little more old school and sort of normal, like he gets it.
- [80:42]
Alicia Krause
It's actually quite interesting when you go back, like, I mean I was a kid at the time, but like reading history and listening to podcasts and stuff on it, how the Democrats were doing really, really poorly. And then William Jefferson Clinton came along and was able to turn politics on its head and kind of moderate himself and have broader appeal. And it was a big deal when he ran and won his gubernatorial race in Arkansas. And then that's also why like feminists and liberals were like, well, let's just not talk about the sexual assault allegations and rape things that women said about him because they knew that he was the Democrats best hope to kind of flip the national narrative of like what a liberal was. So I think you're right. I think that he, even though I think he's a cad broadly, is not down for this kind of crazy woke.
- [81:33]
Adam Carolla
No, no. By the way, he squad type people. No Not I would love, you know, be the greatest thing ever is just put a little secret recording device on the coffee table, give him a couple of beers and ask him what he thinks of aoc, and watch that guy just go nuts.
- [81:52]
Alicia Krause
I mean, he'd probably think she was hot.
- [81:53]
Adam Carolla
Yeah, yeah, that for sure.
- [81:56]
Alicia Krause
But then, like, talk about how crazy she is. So Anyway, Jesse Jackson Jr. After all of the former presidents spoke, called them all out, not just Obama and Biden. That's what he had to say.
- [82:07]
Jesse Kelly
I listened for several hours of three United States presidents who do not know Jesse Jackson. He maintained a tense relationship
- [82:30]
Adam Carolla
with the
- [82:31]
Jesse Kelly
political order, not because the presidents were white or black, but the demands of our message, the demands of speaking for the least of these, those who were disputed, disinherited, the damned, the dispossessed, the disrespected, demanded not Democratic or Republican solutions, but demanded a consistent, prophetic voice that at no point in time ever sold us out as a people. And it speaks volumes about who the Reverend Jesse Jackson was. Our message has already been delivered today. I can see it all over my mother's face. Rise, Jesse, rise. Give Jonathan Jackson another great round of applause for delivering our family message to the world.
- [83:39]
Adam Carolla
What? Hold on. What's the son do? See? Preach too.
- [83:42]
Alicia Krause
I don't know.
- [83:43]
Adam Carolla
He seems like he does some preaching.
- [83:45]
Alicia Krause
I mean, it's clearly genetic, but it's interesting that. So of course, people on the right are like, yay, he slammed Obama and Biden. And then people on the left are kind of pissed about him slamming Obama and Biden. And then you have people that are fans of Jesse Jackson and his style and his tactics that are like, okay, yes, he needs to call out his own. I feel like I have mixed feelings on all of this because if Jesse Jackson wasn't political, then how come he literally ran as a Democrat when he ran for President of the United States and only aligned himself with the Democratic Party, including the three Democratic presidents that spoke at his funeral. Like, George W. Bush wasn't there.
- [84:21]
Adam Carolla
Yeah, he was a hustler, too.
- [84:23]
Alicia Krause
Well, I mean, along with the money laundering and. Or whatever, it was stealing money and moving money around, allegedly. And claiming he was there when MLK was assassinated.
- [84:34]
Adam Carolla
Well, claiming he was by his side,
- [84:37]
Alicia Krause
like holding his hand as he died.
- [84:38]
Adam Carolla
Yeah, Yeah, I love when people do that.
- [84:40]
Alicia Krause
But it's always been political.
- [84:41]
Adam Carolla
Jesse Jackson Jr. Was a politician. So it says he resigned after getting caught stealing.
- [84:51]
Alicia Krause
The son was too funds.
- [84:53]
Adam Carolla
Yeah. Jesse Jackson Jr. The son was a politician and I guess got busted. Wow, that's why we need more people of color and positions of power. I've told that story many times, but that would solve. Oh, wait a second. All right, so anyway, I got caught stealing stuff anyway. He's a good dude. His dad's a good dude. Everyone's a good dude. I think he's just steal shit. And we don't share Biden's values of enriching our family through barista and other oil entities in Ukraine. Okay, so those are his values.
- [85:24]
Alicia Krause
Sounds like the Bidens and the Jacksons have the same kind of value.
- [85:28]
Adam Carolla
We don't share their values because.
- [85:30]
Alicia Krause
So therefore, to your point of, like people of color and power, it's a white people problem too.
- [85:34]
Adam Carolla
Yes.
- [85:35]
Alicia Krause
Turns out nepotism and bribery.
- [85:38]
Adam Carolla
It's a human being. And women, More women than I'd ever thought. I never thought women would engage in all this corruption and all this shit too. I really didn't.
- [85:47]
Alicia Krause
Well, to be fair, as much as you love women.
- [85:51]
Adam Carolla
As much I love women and are
- [85:52]
Alicia Krause
willing to blame a lot of things on us.
- [85:55]
Adam Carolla
We didn't think a black quarterback could work in the NFL, but it's because we never had a black quarterback.
- [86:01]
Alicia Krause
Yes.
- [86:02]
Adam Carolla
And then once we got black quarterbacks, we went, oh, yeah, okay. And as I feel, turns out they
- [86:06]
Alicia Krause
can throw and run.
- [86:07]
Adam Carolla
I feel that way about black women and corruption. Like, turns out they never had the opportunity to rip off taxpayers. They were working, then we voted them in, and now it turns out they rip off everyone too.
- [86:20]
Alicia Krause
They can do it too.
- [86:21]
Adam Carolla
Yes. So they have. There's. I'm giving.
- [86:23]
Alicia Krause
But Nancy Pelosi's been doing it longer.
- [86:25]
Adam Carolla
Right. But she's not a woman of color. That's the whole thing.
- [86:28]
Alicia Krause
Yeah. So I'm saying that it's not just people of color in power.
- [86:31]
Adam Carolla
I wish I could argue. No, no. They're new to the party, but it turns out they're good. Like quarterback in the NFL. Turns out they're good at it.
- [86:41]
Alicia Krause
You mean all of us have fallen.
- [86:43]
Adam Carolla
Yes.
- [86:43]
Alicia Krause
Have sinned and fallen short of the glory party.
- [86:45]
Adam Carolla
I love the Nancy Pelosi, like, school of arguing. Like when people say to her, and I wish I could argue this way, you know, when she goes, someone will go. Like, you know, when you entered as a young freshman senator, your net worth was $5. Now you're worth $50 billion. And people are talking about insider trading. Well, it didn't happen. And that's that. Okay, well, moving on.
- [87:08]
Alicia Krause
And then they're like, I wish I could do that. What's your favorite Haagen Dazs flavor triple chocolate fudge.
- [87:15]
Adam Carolla
I have my two walk in freezers here. Yeah. Can I tell you? All right, give me another news story.
- [87:20]
Alicia Krause
Another news story. Did you see how New York City Mayor Mum Donnie's wife, surprise, surprise, was revealed by her friends over at the Free Press? You like Barry over there?
- [87:31]
Adam Carolla
Sure.
- [87:31]
Alicia Krause
Unlike the CBS newsroom, We like Barry.
- [87:33]
Adam Carolla
Yeah. Mike says her name is Barry, but go ahead.
- [87:36]
Alicia Krause
No, it's Barry.
- [87:37]
Adam Carolla
I know, but he says it's Barry.
- [87:39]
Alicia Krause
Okay. Oh, but Mike also says a lot of things that are wrong.
- [87:41]
Adam Carolla
He mispronounces people's names and then wants you to live with it, including mine. Right, right. And I always go, just pronounce it the right way and then we could move on.
- [87:52]
Alicia Krause
All right. Well, I'd love to know how he says Mamdani's wife's name.
- [87:56]
Adam Carolla
Oh, my God.
- [87:57]
Alicia Krause
Rama Duaji. She allegedly liked a February 24, February 2024 Instagram post claiming that the New York Times coverage and investigation, the sexual violence that occurred during the October 7th attack was, quote, unquote, fabricated.
- [88:12]
Adam Carolla
She liked that.
- [88:13]
Alicia Krause
She liked that post. The report added to a series of.
- [88:15]
Adam Carolla
God, the Times are doing the real investigative journalism. I love it. It's so weird because it depends on what side of the political aisle on. Because they're trying to convince their readers that this guy's raping that person. If they hate that guy, but if they're fans of that guy, then they're saying it's not going on, which is weird and sad.
- [88:38]
Alicia Krause
Yeah. But anyway, so apparently who she did, you know that she's from Houston. She was a Houston born illustrator who identified as Syrian and of course married mum Donnie in early 2025 at his family's fancy estate. And you know, they had the. Remember, like the very glamorous photos and everything. So she's facing a lot of renewed scrutiny after a report that she liked this social media post along with many other, like, insane things. Like one of the texts that she liked said, breaking the walls of apartheid and military occupation. Resisting apartheid since 1948, along with the slogan that systemic change for collective liberation. They. She had a lot of other stuff. She liked things that included the, you know, antifa message of from the river to the sea.
- [89:26]
Adam Carolla
Yeah, yeah, She's a delight.
- [89:27]
Alicia Krause
All these things. So. So his response to this got Meghan McCain and many other people with family members in politics perturbed because they're like, so she gets to be treated different now. Let's take a look.
- [89:44]
Adam Carolla
Thank you. Good morning, Mr. Mayor. You should Have a chance, I think,
- [89:48]
Jesse Kelly
to respond to this.
- [89:48]
Adam Carolla
It's an off topic question. I'd like to know what your reaction was to the article in the Jewish Indictment Insider that was posted about your wife's social media activity. And what I'm wondering is, you're an elected official. She is not. Is it anybody's business and is fair to. By the way, this is not journalism. No, it isn't.
- [90:10]
Alicia Krause
By the way, it's such a leading. It's like such a softball.
- [90:13]
Adam Carolla
I'm from the Softball Free Press. Isn't it true that your wife did nothing wrong because while you're an elected official, she is a humble Houstonian with a heart of gold who may have mistakenly liked a couple of controversial tweets. But that's okay, right? That's not journalism, you fucking pussy. Who's the pussy that asked this question?
- [90:40]
Alicia Krause
I actually don't even know.
- [90:42]
Adam Carolla
Okay, well, we'll go back 10 seconds just cuz it's funny, the softball. You should have a chance, I think,
- [90:48]
Jesse Kelly
to respond to this.
- [90:49]
Adam Carolla
It's an off topic question. I'd like to know what your reaction gives you a chance to the article in the Jewish Insider that was posted about your wife, so. Hold pause.
- [90:59]
Alicia Krause
It wasn't even the Jewish Insider.
- [91:00]
Adam Carolla
I'll take my answer in the form of muffins, thank you. Well, you look good with that beard, don't you?
- [91:07]
Alicia Krause
By the way, it wasn't even the Jewish Insider. The original report came from the Free Press.
- [91:12]
Adam Carolla
Right.
- [91:12]
Alicia Krause
I feel like the guy's like trying one, not to give them credit and two, be like the Jews talked about how horrible your wife is. Would you like to respond, sir?
- [91:22]
Adam Carolla
Yeah. All right, we'll play have a Chance. Timeytown usa. Go ahead, Bond to. This is an off topic question. I'd like to know what your reaction was to the article in the Jewish Insider that was posted about your wife's social media activity. And what I'm wondering is, you're an elected official. She is not. Is it anybody's business and is it fair to question you about. You know, my wife is the love of my life. And she's also a private person who
- [91:55]
Jesse Kelly
has held no formal position on my campaign or in my city hall.
- [92:00]
Adam Carolla
I, however, was elected to represent all
- [92:02]
Jesse Kelly
eight and a half million people in this city. And I believe that it's my responsibility
- [92:06]
Adam Carolla
because of that role to answer any questions about my thoughts and my policies and my decisions. All right, so no answer.
- [92:12]
Alicia Krause
What's the. My grandmother used to say pillow talk. Yeah, like pillow talk matters.
- [92:16]
Adam Carolla
I Just tweeted out she hates Jews privately and he hates Jews publicly. And that's why they're dynamite team. They both fucking hate Jews, by the way.
- [92:25]
Alicia Krause
And they're okay when you have dynamite and throw it in every woman I've ever been with.
- [92:29]
Adam Carolla
They're all. They fucking disagree with everything I say. Who are these guys? It's like you can find the one Jew hater from Houston and marry her. You know what I mean?
- [92:40]
Alicia Krause
Maybe there's a matchmaking service.
- [92:42]
Adam Carolla
Oh, shoes. Yeah. Mm. Yeah, yeah.
- [92:46]
Alicia Krause
Like it's the opposite of aliyah.
- [92:48]
Adam Carolla
Yeah. Like they have, like they have farmers or whatever.
- [92:55]
Alicia Krause
Farmers only. Yeah, it was right. It's farmers only.
- [92:57]
Adam Carolla
Mm. Zionists only. I don't know.
- [93:01]
Alicia Krause
Anti. In their case it was anti Zionists.
- [93:04]
Adam Carolla
There's this weird thing like she tries to do it, he tries to do it, the squad tries to do it. Ilhan Amara anymore. It's like, listen, everything that comes out of your mouth is hatred for Jews, but you keep explaining that you don't have any hatred for Jews. Well, pardon me if I don't believe you because of all the things you say and do and do and do
- [93:25]
Alicia Krause
the words, like the words do matter. I believe that words do matter, but the doing is more matter also. That was really bad grammar.
- [93:33]
Adam Carolla
I don't claim this about Robert Kennedy Jr.
- [93:38]
Alicia Krause
Yes.
- [93:38]
Adam Carolla
Or Cheryl Hines or tons of people, cuz they don't say what you say. I mean, I don't like Bill Clinton, but I don't think he hates Jews. I don't know, he doesn't seem to say anything about it. You guys keep saying something about it and then once people bring it up, you want to know why we're bringing it up?
- [94:00]
Alicia Krause
But I think the bigger frustration here, and like I said, Meghan McCain and other people like, whose family members and spouses and parents have been in the public eye are like, hold up. Yes, she is the first lady of the largest city in the country. And if you guys are going to criticize. I remember Barbara Walters asking Ann and Mitt Romney if they were really virgins when they got married. And for some reason that was hard hitting news that needed to be asked of the GOP candidate and his wife.
- [94:27]
Adam Carolla
Right?
- [94:27]
Alicia Krause
Or Melania Trump wears a camo jacket that says I don't care. And there's thought pieces for weeks on what the first lady of the United States thinks. So why is it only when it's one side of the aisle it matters what the spouse does or does not think? But then Zoron gets to go up there and his wife gets a pass because one, it was Jew hatred and two, they're liberals.
- [94:49]
Adam Carolla
Yes, well, that's correct. You've answered your own question. In your question, can we just add. Well, you heard the way the guy asked the question, right? Obviously, it's a liberal press.
- [94:59]
Alicia Krause
Yeah.
- [95:01]
Adam Carolla
And listen, you don't have to be political, but if you'd like to insert yourself into these events, then you've made yourself political by liking these tweets.
- [95:11]
Alicia Krause
I will say the family members that can be totally kept out of it is I always think that kids should be left out of it. Like the Bush daughters, the Obama girls. Like Trump kids.
- [95:20]
Adam Carolla
I feel like Walls daughter deserves whatever the fuck.
- [95:24]
Alicia Krause
She came out publicly and she's over 18 and she made herself a surrogate for the campaign. And she's the one that posted these things and wrote, but I would not remove her when they're minors.
- [95:34]
Adam Carolla
Yes, I agree. So what, what did Meghan McCain say?
- [95:38]
Alicia Krause
She was just kind of. Actually, I should read it because she was real pissed about it. She was saying she was like, oh, excuse you. Like all the shit that her mom got pretty much when John was running for office. Rip. Hang on. Now I have to pull it up and find it.
- [95:55]
Adam Carolla
Oh, you don't have to. I just know she was fired up. All right, you got another story or should I tell you about something?
- [96:00]
Alicia Krause
Oh, I mean, do you want to talk about.
- [96:02]
Adam Carolla
What's your next story?
- [96:02]
Alicia Krause
My next story is how in the fresh hell did this woman get an AR15 to shoot up Rihanna's mansion?
- [96:09]
Adam Carolla
Sorry, not Milani know that.
- [96:11]
Alicia Krause
So there's these really scary details. Authorities are working to determine a motive that a source told the Post over the weekend that Rihanna and her partner ASAP Rocky did not know much and that they were in the dark as to why this happened. Over the weekend, a woman fired several shots with the AR15 at the LA mansion of pop star Rihanna with one bullet piercing a wall of the home and apparently like scattering bullets around the whole neighborhood. And by the way, what's even crazier is it was in the frickin middle of the day. It was like one o' clock in the afternoon. They quit the lapd. The LAPD quickly responded and took the female suspect into custody. And they're all okay. Nobody was injured. Rihanna was there. But asap Iraqi was not there and he and Rihanna apparently have no idea why their home off of Coldwater Canyon was the result of this attack. I just wanna know as a two a loving person, how the heck did this lady get an AR in the state of California?
- [97:09]
Adam Carolla
Yeah, Maybe she drove it in from Texas or something, right? Women are going nuts. Yeah, men have vote, but to be fair, like the black politician, they're catching up. Up to men who have always been
- [97:26]
Alicia Krause
men were more public facing. So now women get to catch up with your nuts.
- [97:30]
Adam Carolla
Wait, what is this clip? Oh, this is the shooter.
- [97:34]
Alicia Krause
Oh, wow. We have a. And she's holding a Bible.
- [97:36]
Adam Carolla
She has a manifesto.
- [97:37]
Alicia Krause
Shame, girl. Shame. All right, listen, Rihanna, when you die, God is taking me to my future. You want to kill me? Shut the up, okay? Shut the up. Yeah. She's a witch. She's a witch. I'm a watchman. She's a witch. Get that stupid girl out of here. Okay? They. They can't do this. They can't do this. That's why you got Rihanna over there all jealous.
- [98:05]
Adam Carolla
Hold on. Still smarter than anything I've ever heard on the View so far.
- [98:13]
Alicia Krause
But let's keep going, because how am I? How am I? Because her faith is the devil. Rihanna's faith is the devil. Okay? I don't like her, and she's always trying to steal from me. And she has not ever put out any music to reach people. She only did her little music thing so that she can do witchcraft. Oh, so she's one of these. So everybody, please don't listen to her. Don't follow her, don't give that girl any air, space, or time because she's stealing from you, okay? She's stealing from you. So you guys need to wake up and don't give that girl any attention. They want to come over here and steal my thoughts. That's Satan. He just wants to kill something beautiful just like his Rihanna. Did nobody watch these videos and, like, maybe report her to local law enforcement?
- [99:06]
Adam Carolla
I don't know if when she released
- [99:08]
Alicia Krause
this, God and Jesus Christ stopped. When did this come out, Chuck? Do we know? Like, this is insane. I feel like this lady needed a wellness check. Called on her. Well, she's clearly believing some insane online conspiracy theories.
- [99:29]
Adam Carolla
All videos were trending right now as it is an evolving situation. So we don't.
- [99:37]
Alicia Krause
Cause, like, at the. They originally didn't know who it was, and now they've clearly caught this gal.
- [99:44]
Adam Carolla
You know what you want? You want to be like Rihanna. You know what you want people to do? What you want a job? Rihanna's a billionaire, right? Rihanna is a billionaire who made her billions with her cosmetic company.
- [100:00]
Alicia Krause
Yes. Not even her music.
- [100:02]
Adam Carolla
This is what you want. This is what you want in life. Like here's what you want for your child. You know what I mean? You want people to go, you want to be a very famous something, singer, comedian, actor, right? And we all know that you've sold millions of records and been in box office blockbusters and sold out Madison square garden like 10 times. And then you want someone to go, you know, where he made his real money. That's the greatest thing ever.
- [100:36]
Alicia Krause
Oh, like when you're powerful enough that there's a conspiracy theory about you. No, no.
- [100:41]
Adam Carolla
Well, is her cosmetic line a conspiracy theory?
- [100:44]
Alicia Krause
No, no, no. I'm saying that people tend to go back to the Jews, right?
- [100:48]
Adam Carolla
No, no, no.
- [100:48]
Alicia Krause
People only hate people when they're famous
- [100:50]
Adam Carolla
enough that they can think that they're the victim. Here's what you want for your son. I said you want it for your child. It's not a conspiracy theory. Yeah, she made most her money off of cosmetics. Yes, but she's known as a singer.
- [101:07]
Alicia Krause
For sure.
- [101:07]
Adam Carolla
But you want to be.
- [101:09]
Alicia Krause
I'm totally confused. I need another cup of coffee.
- [101:14]
Adam Carolla
You want.
- [101:16]
Alicia Krause
You want people to know.
- [101:17]
Adam Carolla
You want. You want. No, you want this for your son. People go, george Clooney. That guy's an Academy Award winning. Yeah, but you know where he made all his money? And then you go, the booze.
- [101:31]
Alicia Krause
Got it.
- [101:31]
Adam Carolla
Or the thing, which means you're fucking double successful. Because not only you, Rihanna, who sold millions of records and made millions of dollars selling records, but the real success is another thing.
- [101:42]
Alicia Krause
It's a secondary thing.
- [101:43]
Adam Carolla
It's a second thing.
- [101:45]
Alicia Krause
And sometimes you know what it is about a celebrity and sometimes you don't.
- [101:49]
Jesse Kelly
Right.
- [101:50]
Adam Carolla
What you want for your son? What's your son's name?
- [101:53]
Alicia Krause
Well, I don't say it publicly because people are assholes that say I should have aborted my children. But it's a really good name. It's an old man name. I'll give you that hint.
- [102:01]
Adam Carolla
Hezekiah?
- [102:02]
Alicia Krause
Yep.
- [102:02]
Adam Carolla
Okay, what you want people saying about Hezekiah is people go, you know, you think Hezekiah made all his money selling out Madison Square Garden?
- [102:13]
Alicia Krause
No.
- [102:14]
Adam Carolla
Commercial real estate.
- [102:15]
Alicia Krause
Exactly.
- [102:16]
Adam Carolla
That's what you want. And then you go, my God, because. Because we know he's already rich from this one thing, but now he owns half of Toluca Lake. That's what you want.
- [102:25]
Alicia Krause
I thought you were trying to say that you wanna be famous enough that there are conspiracy theories about how you became rich and famous. Right.
- [102:31]
Adam Carolla
But you somehow gleaned that from my non bringing that up. I said, she, Rihanna is a famous singer, but she's a billionaire from her cosmetic line, which is what you want.
- [102:46]
Alicia Krause
I wonder if there's a listener to this podcast that has a child named Hezekiah.
- [102:51]
Adam Carolla
Cause I don't think you said that was your boy's name.
- [102:53]
Alicia Krause
Like, I've never.
- [102:54]
Adam Carolla
Oh, another. Yes, another Jessica Alba.
- [102:58]
Alicia Krause
Oh, the honest company, right? Is she the honest company?
- [103:02]
Adam Carolla
Yes, yes. Ryan Reynolds with Mint Mobile. But I don't know. Like Jessica Alba is true, but she wasn't like Rihanna money. Actress, famous. She was famous, but I don't know. She raked in billions of as an actress. You know what I mean? But yes, fine examples. But the whole point is as much money Rana made singing, she made twice as much with her cosmetics. Good for her, which is crazy. All right, let's see. You can go to AdamKroll.com for all the live shows and say hi to Jesse Kelly looking at his thing here
- [103:40]
Alicia Krause

- [103:41]
