Key Segments & Discussion Highlights

1. News Discussion: Mark Sanchez “Blackout” Incident (03:12–14:39)

• Lead Story: Mark Sanchez, ex-NFL quarterback, reportedly stabbed after an altercation in Indianapolis. Dawson and Adam discuss the blurring between “blackout” and “pass out.”
• Adam’s “Rich Man, Poor Man” Riff: Adam jokes about terms like “battered”—good for shrimp, bad for people. (04:01)
• Story Details: Sanchez allegedly drunkenly assaulted a 69-year-old grease truck driver, who then stabbed Sanchez in self-defense. (07:35)
• Adam Explains “Real Blackout”: Anecdote about a friend who would “go psychotic” drunk, once destroying a dorm and sleeping under his car—underscoring the risk of people who genuinely lose control. (09:45–11:11)
  • Quote: “If you are removing grease from hotels on a Friday, Saturday night at midnight, you’re not rolling...but that guy is going to get some of that NFL money.” (13:18)
• Legal Take: Prediction that the 69-year-old will “lawyer up” and benefit from Sanchez’s resources.

2. “Bad Bunny and Super Bowl Halftime Debate” (14:39–26:59)

• Topic: Bad Bunny rumored to headline the NFL Super Bowl halftime; Adam riffs on Americans who “like” stars but can’t name their songs.
  • Quote: “There’s a group of people who say they like Bad Bunny but can’t name a song. All you people…I spend my whole life with this…and I go, give me two songs. And they go, I don’t know the songs.” (14:57)
• Bad Bunny’s SNL Monologue: Plays the Spanish segment, then jokes about the “if you didn’t understand, learn in four months” punchline. (17:41)
• NFL & Wokeness Rant: Adam questions why the NFL chooses polarizing entertainment or messaging—arguing they should simply “not piss people off.” He suggests “throwback” acts (e.g., Journey, Starship, Huey Lewis) are safer. (20:50)
• Global Expansion: Mike: “NFL is trying to push across the world—It’s not going to happen.” (21:43)

3. Social Trends: Outrage Culture & Public Tantrums (23:38–34:38)

• Adam & Dawson: Discuss the American cycle of outrage—instant anger, quick amnesia. E.g., Tesla owners: “Remember 10 minutes ago, they were burning Tesla dealerships?” (56:31)
  • Quote: “When people get pissed off about nothing, they go back to homeostasis pretty quick.” (58:41)
• Segue into Government/Corporate Reactions: Whether it’s NFL or city governments (on subway surfin’), Adam criticizes the habit of “studying” problems instead of addressing root causes (“no dads in the house”). (34:05)

4. Safe vs. Dangerous Kids — “Bubble Wrap or Thunderdome” (34:34–40:08)

• Topic: The generational divide between hyper-safety and reckless danger.
  • Quote: “We are living in a world of extreme safety and extreme danger simultaneously...We either have a bouncy castle or Thunderdome.” (36:41)

5. Kerryn Feehan Is In! Standup, OnlyFans & Hustle Talk (41:27–46:01)

• Kerryn’s Career: Upcoming shows at the Comedy Store (LA) and in Pennsylvania; details on her podcast “OnlyFeehans” and special “Don’t Serve Me” on OnlyFans.
• OnlyFans Conversation: Kerryn notes her feed is PG13–R, “not actual porn—just if you want to see me naked, you can.”
  • Quote: “I’m not making actual porn...if you want to see me naked, you can.” (43:59)
• Adam compares this to the celebrity app Cameo—a low-effort, lucrative side hustle.

6. Sense of Direction & Personality (46:24–53:03)

• Adam’s Theory: People with bad sense of direction like Jimmy Kimmel or Mike August may really just be “headstrong” and impervious to self-doubt, not truly lost.
  • Quote: “Is it an actual compass issue or a headstrong issue? Because Jimmy’s headstrong…He just doesn’t believe he’d go the wrong way.” (49:15)
• Kerryn Relates: Admits she questions herself constantly; Adam jokes about how decisive types “sweep up” followers even in the wrong direction.

7. Modern Vegas & Old School Stories (53:24–56:14)

• Vegas Isn’t Cheap Anymore: Adam bemoans the $25 Starbucks bill and reminisces about the old $1.99 Binion’s steak (54:10), only to learn it’s long gone.
• Comedy in New York vs. LA: Kerryn loves NYC but finds crowds polarized by political material; smaller towns are more receptive to “wild” jokes. (97:58)

8. Gender Roles, “Paying for Everything,” and Modern Relationships (71:40–78:02)

• “Who Picks Up the Food?”: Adam recounts telling his ex-wife: “Get in the Jaguar that I lease you, go down the driveway I paid for...through the electronic gates I made...pull the credit card I pay for...”
  • Quote: “Since when did paying for everything count for nothing?” — Mark McGrath, as recalled by Adam (74:54)
• Kerryn on Being Provided For: “The thought of not having to pay rent—I would suck the guy’s dick from morning till night…I would be so happy!” (77:04)
• Debate: They both note that, if both partners work, then shared duties are fine—but if one is providing, the other should show appreciation or manage the home.

9. Purpose, Entitlement & the Bikini Islands Analogy (78:18–80:09)

• Adam’s Analogy: Tells the story of Bikini Islanders given a “bumper pool table and all the beer you want.” Once they stopped working/hunting—they became fat, miserable, and alcoholic.
  • Quote: “Stop trying to figure out ways to give shit to people for free…You need a purpose.” (79:35)
• Kerryn agrees: “If you’re going to enter the transaction of rich husband, stay-at-home mom, care about your home and your kids.” (79:38)

10. Masculinity, Male Loneliness, Societal Shifts (100:55–106:00)

• Kerryn asks: “Why are men so sad?...What is this male loneliness thing?”
• Adam compares modern young men to “blackfish” (the depressed orca): “...Their dorsal fin is flaccid and flopped over, and they’re waiting for some bitch to feed them.” (105:38)
• Critique of anti-masculine shifts: Adam argues removing “rough and tumble” from boys—via female-dominated institutions and banning tackle football—leads to lifelong issues.
  • Quote: “Dislocating your shoulder will heal. Being a pussy is a lifetime sentence.” (105:08)
• Younger Men and Dating: Kerryn: “You put an actual living, breathing female in front of them, and they don’t know what to do with it.” (105:45)
• Andrew Tate Mention: Kerryn jokes about retweeting Tate and the war of “bracelets vs. stew” (bracelets as sign of emasculation).

Notable Quotes & Moments (With Timestamps)

• On Outrage and NFL Halftime Shows:
  “People will watch football. The guys are Brokeback Mountain…I can’t quit you, man. Every once in a while I get pissed at the NFL…and then I wake up Sunday morning, my hands shaking…I can’t quit you, man.” (19:14)
• On Traditional Gender Dynamics:
  “If you’re the one creating the lifestyle financially…I mean if you really are…the other person should maybe appreciate it.” — Kerryn (74:23)
• On American Outrage Culture:
  "People just like a rage. They like to just take it to the streets, have a tantrum, and then, like little kids—sorry, didn’t mean it." — Kerryn (60:10)
• On the Demasculinization of Boys:
  “We told guys to stop being guys. And so they started getting fat, and they started playing video games, and they started getting addicted to porn…And they should have been outside wrestling in the dirt.” — Adam (103:09)
• Comedic Insight on Comedy “Angles”:
  “Here’s the thing. If you’re American Indian, then you got a hook, you got a thing. But then you kind of become a slave to it.” (89:53)

  “Mark McGrath…just came up to me and he goes, 'Adam, since when did paying for everything count for nothing?'" (74:52)

Other Memorable Riffs

• Adam’s Story About Porn in 90s Hotel Rooms:
  How he and Jimmy Kimmel would bring universal remotes and needle nose pliers on trips so they could get free porn by hotwiring the hotel cable box—leading to his room running porn 24/7 because he couldn’t switch channels back (95:40–96:19).
• Pikachu Costume Protest Antics:
  Protester in an inflatable bunny suit pepper sprayed via the air vent—Adam marvels at the creativity and evolution of protests (61:50).
• Comedians and Their “Hooks”:
  Comedy about identity versus broader topics. They watch and discuss a vintage standup of Charlie Hill (the first American Indian comedian on TV). (86:29)

---

Final Thoughts & Tone

The tone is classic Carolla—irreverent, direct, and unafraid of controversy. Kerryn matches his candor, especially in her views on dating, money, and masculinity. The episode is full of sharp commentary about cultural trends, intergenerational shifts, and the realities (and comedic opportunities) of modern relationships—blended with personal stories, old-school comedy nostalgia, and plenty of self-deprecating humor.

This episode of the Adam Carolla show is brought to you by SimpliSafe from.

[Mike Dawson]

Corolla One Studios in Glendale, California. This is the Adam Carolla Show. Adam's guest today, comedian Karen Feehan. Plus the news with me, Mike Dawson. And now, no intro joke today, government shut down the funding. Adam Carolla yeah, get it on.

[Adam Carolla]

Got to get it on the church. Get it on. Joe Dawson's in the studio. He's got the news. We'll get into that. Then. Karen Fehan is going to be in here. She's a funny comedian. She's been in here before and we'll talk to her. But first we'll do some news with Dawson.

[Mike Dawson]

Well, it seems like a bad day to be Mark Sanchez over The weekend the news broke that Mark Sanchez had been stabbed and he was in the hospital. So thoughts and prayers were flying around on X. But this story now updated from the New York Post. A 69 year old man who was allegedly assaulted by Mark Sanchez in Indianapolis and then stabbed. The former jets quarterback has been pictured bloody and battered in his hospital bed. The pictures all over social media, it's gross. I don't want to look at it. I don't think you do either, but you've probably seen it of him, the vet. Well, the 69 year old man made.

[Adam Carolla]

Me think, you know, in the rich man, poor man tradition, you know, I have things that sound good but aren't good, but can be. Like battered.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, battered shrimp is good and tempura is good. Or there's the bad side of battered, you know, so it's not all bad with the battered. But I saw like a small picture on a phone of like him in a hospital bed.

[Mike Dawson]

He's got massive, massive facial jaw injury.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, really?

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah. So he looks like a fish taco, but so Sanchez.

[Adam Carolla]

So here's what I gleaned from this story. Cause if you go, what? What, what? He got drunk and he blacked out.

[Mike Dawson]

Probably blackout stage.

[Adam Carolla]

Because people don't understand the difference between pass out and blackout. Blackout is something different than pass out. Blackout is. I have experience with a guy who was a friend of mine who would black out.

[Mike Dawson]

That's funny. I have experience with a guy who'd black out. His name is Mike Dawson. No, I'm kidding.

[Adam Carolla]

Everyone has been shit faced and everyone has sort of passed out and everyone's done shit they don't remember and so on and so forth. But that's not blacking out. Blacking out is like, I had a friend, went to usc, destroyed the dorm room, took a dump on the coffee table. You basically wake up strapped to a hospital bed, right? They strap you in.

[Mike Dawson]

I Chris Farley to coffee table in college. And I woke up and my roommate was on the bunk above me and I said, scott, why does my face hurt?

[Adam Carolla]

Right?

[Mike Dawson]

And he just started laughing because I blacked out and face planted into the coffee table. That's a blackout.

[Adam Carolla]

But I was. Wait, wait a second. Is that a blackout or is that a pass out?

[Mike Dawson]

It knocked me out.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, see. Okay, Dawson, I'm gonna reboot here.

[Mike Dawson]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Adam Carolla]

But you, you've, you did it volitionally. You were blacked out.

[Mike Dawson]

I tripped. Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, you tripped?

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah, I was at the doorway walking to my bed, but I don't I.

[Adam Carolla]

I still don't think this is a blackout.

[Mike Dawson]

I don't remember it at all. Well, I don't remember. Yeah, but anything from that night. Yeah, so that's what I'm saying.

[Adam Carolla]

But it's blackout. It's one thing to get people. A lot of people get fucked up and don't really remember, but they what. What they would remember if they did is you fuck it. Like, who ate my pizza? You did. You know, And I don't remember hitting the coffee table with my face or I tripped over. But this is full fledged crazy activity. Like running around fighting, people screaming, you know, screaming at everyone. We gotta go to Tijuana to get the rest of the boys out. Like this is a full thing. And then at some point the next morning, you don't remember. This is it. I mean, I guess everyone can do a little bit of a version of it, which is you get really fucked up and then you don't really remember. And then you have that thing where you go. I hope I didn't say anything too stupid, you know, or whatever that thing was. But the. Dude. But you wouldn't beat the shit out of somebody who was like trying to drop something off or something like that.

[Mike Dawson]

This guy was a grease truck driver. He was picking up, right? Used grease from a hotel. He apparently needs hearing aids, but he didn't have them in because the noise of his truck would just be miserable to hear, right? So Sanchez apparently approached him. The guy leaned in to hear what Sanchez was trying to tell him. He says he smelled of alcohol and his speech was slurred. And then Sanchez, according to this, who's 6 foot 2, 230 pounds and 38 years old, hurled the driver against a wall before throwing him to the ground. At which point the driver said he stabbed Mark Sanchez in self defense. Sanchez is in the hospital. Unstable condition. He's been charged with battery, resulting in bodily injury. Unauthorized entry of a motor vehicle. Public intoxicate intoxication, endangering the life of another.

[Adam Carolla]

So, all right, so let me tell you what real blackout is.

[Mike Dawson]

Tell me.

[Adam Carolla]

I knew a guy and he had this. It's probably a thing that one in every, I don't know, 10,000 people get. They get drunk, they go psychotic, they go to a different place. Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde, no memory of it the next day. And oftentimes very mild mannered, regular people, men and women. And then they go to outer space and they get drunk. And like, I went to Tijuana with me and you know, the usual suspects. My dude friends. And we knew people who lived in the dorms in San Diego State. So our plan was we're going to go to Tijuana and party. And then we're going to end up back in their dorms, flopped out and party. We did the usual stuff. Lots of drinking. And then when it was time to head back to San Diego, here's how fucked up we were. We had to decide who was the least fucked up, who could drive the car.

[Mike Dawson]

We've done that.

[Adam Carolla]

That was this guy?

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah. Oh, really?

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Mike Dawson]

Wow.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. That means we weren't in great shape either. No, but he drove the car and we got to the dorms in San Diego and then we all kind of spread out. You stay with that person, I'll stay with this person. Everyone kind of crashed out. And then this guy got up and he went nuts. And he ran up and down the dorm room halls and he banged on everyone's door, you know, screaming, you know, we gotta get our boys. He wanted to go back to Tijuana to get our boys out. And he'd already been out and we were already out. And he just kept going up. And then he, like, grabbed his car keys and he said, I'm going back to Tijuana. Cause I gotta get the boys out. Oh, my God. And the poor girl he was staying with was like wrestling, trying, you can't leave, no. And he went out. She called me and my buddy Chris at like three in the morning and was like, you gotta get your friend under control. He's out of control. He's running up and down the dorm. He's banging on everyone's doors. He's screaming, we gotta go to Tijuana, get the boys out. And stuff like that. And of course, me and Chris were just like, yeah, all right. And we just hung up the phone.

[Mike Dawson]

What did he say the next day when you told him all about this?

[Adam Carolla]

Well, the next day he actually spent the night on the street under his car.

[Mike Dawson]

Oh, God.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, because at some point he fled out to go get the boys back from Tijuana. But. But she had taken his keys and so he couldn't start his car. So I think he just ended up on the curb with his car. And then at some point he went from blackout to pass out. And see, I think people always conflate blacking out and passing out. He was blacked out, running up and down the halls, yelling about getting our boys from Tijuana. And then eventually he passed out and that was under his car. So then when I saw him the next day he'd been sleeping under his car. Not with a bedroll or anything either, just on the street. And then another time, I wasn't there for. He went nuts in his dorm room and destroyed his dorm room and took a dump on the coffee table, so on and so forth. And at that point he woke up chained to a bed in county usc. The cops will show up, the cops will get you out, they'll force you into the hospital and they'll shackle you to the bed. So that's a guy who blacks out. Sure. And Sanchez sounds like he was blacked out. Like that guy. He's gonna say I don't remember a thing, I snapped. And he does it. I mean, those guys don't remember a thing. And by the way, that's not his personality. That wasn't his personality at all. He wasn't a troublemaker, he wasn't a fighter, he wasn't any of that stuff. He blacks out and goes nuts. And there's a percentage of those people, and those people cannot drink because when they get into that state, you're gonna get shot by a cop super easily or shot by anybody because you can't, you're gonna get stabbed. Cuz this is who you, you know, you're blacked out. So Sanchez gonna say he's blacked out.

[Mike Dawson]

So he's gonna use some kind of treatment to possibly get a plea deal.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, but this guy. And listen, I'm just, I'm guessing if you are removing grease from hotels on a Friday, Saturday night at midnight, you're not rolling. He doesn't have a Maybach parked in his driveway. This dude's going to lawyer up.

[Mike Dawson]

Exactly.

[Adam Carolla]

And he's going to get some of that NFL money. He's going to get some money because Sanchez, I don't. You know, it wasn't exactly like he was a perennial all star, but that guy was a first rounder. First couple around. I mean, not rounds, but top five pick, NFL bonus, you know. Yeah. There's cash, right? So that guy is going to get some of that cash. I'll tell you the real winner here. Who? That guy's wife. Because she's been married to the guy for like 41 years. He's obviously financially. Not a lot of upside. He's 69, he's cleaning out flus or getting grease from whatever. That's a pretty low paying gig. Not, you know, maybe she plays a scratcher every once in a while or likes to go to the casino and play the slots. But this, this, this $7.2 million that comes flowing into her coffers is going to be quite an upgrade for her.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah. Big windfall.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Mike Dawson]

Congratulations. Speaking of football, Bad Bunny was the host and musical guest. Both host and musical guest, I believe, for Saturday Night Live. His third time on Saturday Night Live. He said a bunch of stuff in Spanish.

[Adam Carolla]

Let me say this. There's two groups. There's two groups of people. There's a group of people who don't really know who Bad Bunny is. And then there's the group of people who say they like Bad Bunny but can't name a song. Who, by the way? All you people. I spend my whole life with this and people go, I like that. I like that. And I go, nate, give me two songs. And they go, I don't know the songs. All right, just shut up. That don't say you like that.

[Mike Dawson]

Right?

[Adam Carolla]

All right, that's Chuck. He likes Bad Bunny. But he doesn't know this. Well, he knew two. How many. How many songs? Yeah, how many. How many songs? You know? Three. Three.

[Mike Dawson]

Okay, you know three Bad Bunny songs. And, like, not by heart.

[Charlie Hill]

Okay, I'll listen to them.

[Adam Carolla]

What are the name of the three songs? I'm drawing a blank. Okay. Chuck's that guy. Chuck's the guy who, when you go, I don't like Bad Bunny, goes, I like Bad Bunny. And then you go, name three songs. And he goes, I don't know.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Okay. Huge fan, though.

[Mike Dawson]

Big fan.

[Adam Carolla]

Big fan.

[Mike Dawson]

All right, well, we don't need the video to be fair.

[Adam Carolla]

Ask me if I like. Oh, wait, we'll do this. Watch. Let's turn the tables on me. All right. Say you like Led. Say you. You hate Led Zeppelin.

[Mike Dawson]

I hate Led Zeppelin.

[Adam Carolla]

I love Led Zeppelin.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. Great. What?

[Mike Dawson]

Name two of their songs.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, there's. Yeah. I don't know that. There's Misty Mountain. There's the Achilles. The Colonel's Last Stand. There's God. There's a Black Velvet. Wait a minute. Gabardine. Gabardine. Is that a material?

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah, that's on their third record.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, corduroy. Wait, wait. Angora. Angora. Is that. What's the one that's, like, with a purple alligator and a 16 foot head? I like living and loving. I like living in lovin. She's Just a Woman. Yeah, I know that one. So to be fair, I could not name it.

[Mike Dawson]

Right.

[Adam Carolla]

3. Oh, stairway to Heaven. There you go. There you go.

[Mike Dawson]

Probably the only one.

[Adam Carolla]

There you go. That.

[Mike Dawson]

Except for a Whole lot of love. They drive that one home.

[Adam Carolla]

That's true. All right, so Bad Bunny.

[Mike Dawson]

So Bad Bunny said a bunch of stuff in Spanish, and then he closed it with, if you didn't understand what I just said, you have four months to learn. So we have that clip. Oh, sure.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Mike Dawson]

We can watch it.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, yeah. Bad. But he's so. I don't know. I. Okay, let's play it here.

[Mike Dawson]

Sorry. That's a lot of words.

[Adam Carolla]

That's a lot of Spanish.

[Mike Dawson]

And if you didn't understand what I.

[Adam Carolla]

Just said, you have four months to learn. Can't really understand the English part. All right, so is the NFL, are they, like, trolling Trump? Or, like, what is their plan?

[Mike Dawson]

It seems like.

[Adam Carolla]

Or is it just one of those, let's get the tranny, he she guy with a special Bud Bud Light can and his face on it. No, no one ever goes, hold on. Just hold on a second. Because that might not be good for sales of our beer. Like, Bad Bunny.

[Mike Dawson]

I think the NFL believes themselves to be uncancellable.

[Adam Carolla]

Right? I get it. But they also kind of get that, like, Kaepernick taking a knee is, like, bad for business.

[Mike Dawson]

Right.

[Adam Carolla]

So why are they.

[Mike Dawson]

They didn't before, though.

[Adam Carolla]

No, I know, but they kind of, like, Are they. Here's what I'm saying. People will watch football. Like, the guys will butt fucking Brokeback Mountain. Like, I can't quit you, man. I mean, every once in a while, I get pissed at the NFL and the Stop the hate and the racism in the end zone and all the woke.

[Mike Dawson]

All the.

[Adam Carolla]

Woke the black national anthem and stuff. And then I wake up Sunday morning, my hands shaking. I start scratching my neck real hard, and I go, I can't quit you, man. I watch the NFL so that I get I can't quit you, man part. On the other hand, Dave really has to see which way the wind has been blowing. Like for Cracker Barrel and Bud Light and all these brands.

[Mike Dawson]

It strikes me that there is someone or a group of people or a certain membership in NFL decision making that is that ultra left side.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. There's always the Hijack nut jobs. Yeah, right. But what I'm saying is, ultimately, you gotta sit down and go, what's this guy doing? Well, he's in Puerto Rico right now. What's he doing? Well, he's there because he says he can't have his concerts here because of the ice. Are gonna raid his concerts. And then you gotta go, oh, so this guy's not a Trump fan. Right. Then he'd go, no. And then someone's gotta Go, I don't know. What are the Doobie Brothers up to? Yeah. All right, let's just.

[Mike Dawson]

Let's get Michael McDonald out there.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, what I'm saying in the corporate America does two things. They go, we would like to provide this and we'd like to entertain. We'd like to put on a show, and so on and so forth. But mainly they're like, we don't want to piss people off. Like, we don't want to get into trouble. Like we're looking for. That's all they have to do, Right? That's all they have to do is really, everyone's watching the super bowl no matter what.

[Mike Dawson]

Right.

[Adam Carolla]

Don't give them a reason to not watch the Super Bowl. And that reason is just Journey reunites with a bunch of 80s super fans. And they San Francisco bands have Starship up there. That's right. Just do a throw.

[Mike Dawson]

Mickey Thomas.

[Adam Carolla]

That's right.

[Mike Dawson]

Have Mickey Thomas do the national anthem and then Starship perform at halftime.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, just do a bunch. Huey Lewis can perform. It's 80s San Francisco band theme night, and that's it.

[Mike Dawson]

Let me ask you this, because the NFL is really trying to push the NFL across the world. It's not going to happen.

[Adam Carolla]

I think that may be part of it, I think trying to get the.

[Mike Dawson]

World into the NFL and it's. I think it's a really stupid thing for them to try to do. It's not going to happen.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, Sanchez was the only Latin guy that was in the league, and he's off getting stabbed.

[Mike Dawson]

But here's what Kristi Noem said about this. This is funny. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said, they suck and will win and God bless us and we'll stand and be proud of ourselves. At the end of the day, they won't be able to sleep at night because they don't know what they believe and they're so weak. We'll fix it.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, it'll be one of these things. Here's what'll happen. And this is the time we're living in where they'll go, look, Bad Bunny will make some sort of statement. He'll make fun of Trump voters or call them deplorables or something. He'll say something. There'll be something. He'll say something in Spanish at a concert or something. They'll grab it, they'll translate it, they'll throw it up. And then they'll get all of Trump world and half this nation agitated, right? And then at some point, the folks on the left, they'll go, what? You know, and they'll start fighting back and they'll push back, and then they'll go, why do you have to. And it's like, you didn't need to put a controversial figure at halftime at the Super Bowl. You did it. And then that person said something. And then the same folks that got pissed off at Bud Light are gonna say something. And then you wanna know why they're saying something? They're saying something because you started this.

[Mike Dawson]

They're picking a fight.

[Adam Carolla]

Right? They do.

[Mike Dawson]

They do not have to do that. They don't have. They did it on purpose.

[Adam Carolla]

Right.

[Mike Dawson]

Some people say that we can't blame the NFL. We have to blame. Is it Jay Z's company? I think so. Who's responsible for the. Well, then, okay, let's blame him also.

[Adam Carolla]

Fine with that, too.

[Mike Dawson]

There's a lot to go around.

[Adam Carolla]

Let me just say this. As a guy who watches the NFL and enjoys some music, the NFL halftime show should not be an artist or an entity or band where I sit at home along with millions of others, Americans, and go, I have no fucking idea what this person does. I don't know one song. Because if you really think about a concert, what is a concert? Well, the concert is you go see Paul McCartney. He plays Beatles songs, he plays Wing songs. And at some point an hour 28 in, he goes, now something from the new album. And you go, I'm gonna get a beer. You guys want a beer? Because I want to hear the songs you're familiar with. Right? And so what the halftime show is, is. It's a. It would be a Paul McCartney concert or Prince concert or whoever, distilled down to like 21 minutes. It's every hit packed in to this tight little sort of bullion cube of entertainment. Right?

[Mike Dawson]

Right.

[Adam Carolla]

This is the opposite of that. I'm going to go there and I'm going to. I'm going to turn on the game. I'm going to watch a Super bowl. And going in, I'm going to go. I don't. Unless he does Paul McCartney songs. I don't know.

[Mike Dawson]

I won't know My love, open the door.

[Adam Carolla]

Right? I'm going to sit there going, pete Townsend? Yeah. I'm going to sit there and go, I don't know what this guy's. Now if it's. If the who's playing, I'm going to go, oh, man, I know they're not going to play Squeeze Box, but, man, I hope they play Squeeze Box. And I'm going to. I'm Going to go, I want something from Quadrophenia. I'm going to start thinking, and I'm going to hope that they're going to. I'll know every song. I'll know every song.

[Mike Dawson]

One of the prerequisites. You're getting at this. The band, whoever plays should have a greatest hits record.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes. And you won't know any of the songs Bad Bunny's going to play unless you're sitting next to Chuck. Because Chuck obviously wrote the Bad Bunny songbook. I mean, he's an officiant.

[Mike Dawson]

He's at the fan club.

[Adam Carolla]

He'll do it in English and in Spanish. God love him. Yes, he loves that Bad Bunny. So no, millions and millions of Americans are gonna sit at home having no good fucking idea what Bad Bunny song is gonna play. But I predict, let's not forget this, because everything must be ruined and every fight must be had. He'll say something stupid going in. Be like 10 days before the Super Bowl. They're going to try to get him. They're going to say, no, we can't have him. You know, after he said, you know, gringos are all retarded or something. He'll say something about the Blue Eyed Devil or Trump or whatever. And then we're going to go in and then families are going to get separated. Will never happen. But. Or you could have just done Journey and we've never had this argument.

[Mike Dawson]

Well, let me ask you a question. Are you actually going to watch this halftime show? If. Now there's a large part of the country, apparently, that is pulling for an alternative halftime show starring Creed.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, wow.

[Mike Dawson]

I would watch Creed.

[Adam Carolla]

I am all for the let's go, Brandon part of life.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And I. I learned it during. God, I gotta say, think of his name. There is a part of life that's an alternative. The Richard Kim incident. In my high school, Richard Kim was this sort of thick, bespectacled Korean guy who, like, carried a briefcase in the 80s and wore, like, your dad's dress shoes. When a Korean guy didn't know Levi's and stuff, you know, And I didn't even know how good his English was, but he was running for class president, okay? And nobody knew who he was and everyone thought he was a weirdo and he wasn't popular or anything, but they were having the debate or the this, you know, everybody would get up and have five minutes to give their speech in front of the auditorium, which was at the.

[Mike Dawson]

I did it every year.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, yeah.

[Mike Dawson]

Class president. First three years of high school.

[Adam Carolla]

First three. Yeah. How big was your high school?

[Mike Dawson]

I think we had. It was an all boys school. There were 300 in my class, so. 1200.

[Adam Carolla]

That's damn impressive, man. That's a big deal. That's impressive. So I never ran for anything. I was anointed class clown, but I never ran for anything.

[Mike Dawson]

But I didn't get class clown. I got loudest and that hurt.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, that's the most improved of class clown.

[Mike Dawson]

But it's also. You just make noise, you know, it's just like, thanks, guys.

[Adam Carolla]

But you were president.

[Mike Dawson]

Freshman, sophomore and junior class president.

[Adam Carolla]

Couldn't pull off the senior year, huh?

[Mike Dawson]

No, the guy used my speech against me. And it worked. Every year I did a speech. I told a story about some kind of animals. And there was a. You know, in the end, the first one was a horse race. And this horse that everyone thought was gonna win, trips right out of the gate, doesn't even finish. They had to shoot the horse. And what I'm saying is, don't be that horse. Get a good start. Elect me as your president. And they did.

[Adam Carolla]

I so the Richard Kemp. So here's why I'm all for counter. So. So I say, let's go, Brandon, let's go. Brandon is just a bunch of people goofing on other people, right? And I'm all for the goof. And I like the message the goof sends, like, hey, fuck you, Goodell. And NFL. What if we all just watch? What if everyone just tuned out? Watch a Creed concert. Fuck you. Like, I like it. Richard Kim was. He got up to do a speech. He was awkward. I don't even know how much English he really mastered or whatever. Everyone knew he wasn't like Mr. Popular. And it was in an auditorium, it's in the basketball gymnasium. And I was part of it. And he got up there and like someone just went up and just yelled like, we love you, Richard. And he's like, you know, he's doing like a, like a Nixon peace sign thing. Like, thank you, thank you. And then at some point I was like, Richard. And I was like, Richard. And the place started going nuts. And they were like chanting his name over and over again like he was a rock star, but he was a dope, you know, but it was all ironic, right? And then at some point, like that calmed everyone down. And at some point, like Mr. Smith had to take to the microphone and go, now listen, there's not gonna be any more outbursts. He's gonna give his speech. And then he'd like go so. And then someone yelled, I love you, Richard. And then everyone would go, richard, Richard, Richard. And he was drinking it all in because it wasn't ironic to him. All he knew is he went from obscurity to the most popular guy in the school. But we just thought it was funny that this Korean guy who carried a briefcase and, like, wore his dad shoes and a clip on tie and stuff would be a rock star. And I don't even know if he won.

[Mike Dawson]

I mean, it would be so great if he did, but he probably didn't.

[Adam Carolla]

But it was. It was ironic. You can find a picture of Richard Kim from North Hollywood high, like, circa 1981 or 1980 or 81, and you'll see this dude. But the point is, I like the goof.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

I would push hard for everyone just to go watch Creed.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I would too. And if they do Creed, I mean, I'm gonna watch it.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Mike Dawson]

Then my junior year, my speech was, you had this great dog and this dog's dog. Toy. Chew toy. And the dog loved its chew toy, and it was great. And then you got him. They got him a new chew toy, and the dog choked and died. You know I'm your president, right?

[Adam Carolla]

It was a total douchebag speech.

[Mike Dawson]

And then the guy after me, there he is, Richard Kim.

[Adam Carolla]

Richard Kim.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah. Good looking man, right there.

[Adam Carolla]

He thoughtful. We had. When I was in junior high, someone ran for class president or whatever, treasurer or whatever it is, and. And I remember at an auditorium, I know her dad cooked this one up and thought it was gold, and it totally backfired. So she got up there and she goes, everybody get up. Everyone get up. Get up. Get on your feet. And people are like. And she's like, come on, get up, get up. People are like, why? And she's like, go. Get up, get up. And everyone's like, all right. They got up and they stood there and she went, if I can get you to stand, I can do. And everyone went, oh, get the fuck out of here. Everyone sat back down, pissed off. And I know her dad cooked that one up and thought it would go over like a fucking gangbuster.

[Mike Dawson]

The kids at North Hollywood High were.

[Adam Carolla]

Gonna go, wow, that was Walter Reed Junior High. But yes. Yeah, that was probably in the 8th or 9th grade, but yeah.

[Mike Dawson]

Oh, my God.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, one more before we bring Karen in.

[Mike Dawson]

All right, let's do this one. Kids in New York are subway surfing on top of trains, and they're dying.

[Adam Carolla]

What is going on?

[Mike Dawson]

We got some video of this. We'll play this B roll. This is gnarly. Actually, the video we're going to see is not gnarly. It looks like a lot of fun. They're on top of trains. But apparently most recently, a 15 year old kid, two girls age 12 and 13.

[Adam Carolla]

Mm.

[Mike Dawson]

And what is the city of New York or the MTA doing about it? I'll give you one guess.

[Adam Carolla]

Blame whitey.

[Mike Dawson]

No.

[Adam Carolla]

Put barbed wire on the top of the trains.

[Mike Dawson]

There you go. No, they're gonna do a study.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, study.

[Mike Dawson]

They're gonna do a study.

[Adam Carolla]

Study about kids who don't fucking have dads in the house. Cause that's the only study that's gonna be worthwhile. That's the one study they never do, is the one about how kids with no dads in the house grow up a certain way and become criminals and do a bunch of shit you don't want them to do as a society. But they will never look at that. Even though they are interested in systemic problems and how to get to the systemic root of the problem. But they'll never get to the root of this one.

[Mike Dawson]

No.

[Adam Carolla]

We are living in a world.

[Mike Dawson]

They'll probably say, kids love trains. That's what we found out.

[Adam Carolla]

They'll do something about needing a music program in the inner city or some bullshit. You know, they're gonna need money. They're gonna need some more money to fix this. We are living in a weird time, which is the safe. We're living in a time of extreme safety and extreme danger simultaneously. So we all grew up somewhere in the middle. Like, everyone rode a bike. No one wore a helmet. Right? Right. Everybody ate basically the same thing.

[Mike Dawson]

Drank out of a hose.

[Adam Carolla]

Drank out of a hose. Everyone's sort of. All the cars were about the same. None of them had, you know, crumple zones or airbags or anything. But it was all just kind of.

[Mike Dawson]

They were all Buicks.

[Adam Carolla]

We all lived in the middle. And now, Right? Yeah, there's kids, they're putting on helmets to walk out the front door. Every car has a crumple zone. The kid's got a peanut allergy. He's got a foodborne allergy. He's just sensitive to this. We are wrapping some kids in bubble wrap. And the other ones are like, he was 11, he got shot because he was sitting out front of his house. And he lives in a place where people shoot people and run, like, weird, extreme, dangerous sports. Like, oh, how'd that kid die? Well, he walked up to the top of the 6th Street Bridge on one of those arches and was taking pictures or oh, what happened to your son? Oh, they did a street takeover and a guy was in a Dodge and he was doing donuts and my son was out there trying to touch the car as it went by. Oh, really? Because my son is dipped in Pyrell rut, wrapped in bubble wrap and has three helmets and a condom on right now. And I'm raising him in a root cellar with a fortified door. And he's only can eat. There's no, by the way, he can't drink water out of the sink. It's all got to be mountain water from a bottle and triple filter.

[Mike Dawson]

There's almost no middle ground either.

[Adam Carolla]

No, we're going to have a bunch of triple filtered water. Helmet wearing, they're going to invent a helmet for drinking water. Or it's going to be 230 in the morning on a Wednesday night and your kid's going to be out in the middle of Hoover and Alvarado dodging a Dodge Demon that's coming around the fucking corner because he's trying to film it and get some likes and you don't even know he's out of his bedroom. Right. Those are choices. We either have a bouncy castle or Thunderdome. Oh, man, that's a good place to leave powerful ref. All right, Karen Feehan, comedian will be in here. We'll talk to her right after this. O'Reilly Auto Parts. O'Reilly Auto Parts. Yeah, you know the jingle. These are the guys.

And you swing by there today and check us out. Or you can go to o'reillyauto.com Adam that's o'reillyauto.com Adam Brunt Work Wear yeah, I'm holding one right now. I've had a lot of boots over the years, but I've never had ones as good as Brunt. And I wore boots for a living and they were never this comfortable. Now they felt like you're wearing cinder blocks on your feet. It took two weeks at least to break them in. You had to hit them with like mink oil and everything. I got a pair of these Omen boots from Brunt and they felt great right out of the box. No break in, no sore feet, no hobbling around. Brunt figured out a way to make the boot comfortable right out of the box. And you shouldn't have to choose between comfort and durability because you got them both with Brunt. And I gotta tell you, these things are tanks, man. Waterproof, solid, tow, built like a truck, like a Mack truck, as they used to say, but comfy like running shoes. So it's the ultimate. And they'll do jackets, they'll do pants, they'll do the whole line. And if for some reason you don't love them, you can wear them to work and still send them back. It's Brunt, right?

[Mike Dawson]

DAWSON Brunt was tired of the workwear brands out there cutting corners. You work too hard to be stuck in uncomfortable boots that don't hold up, so they built something better. Boots that are insanely comfortable and built for any job site. For a limited time, our listeners get $10 off at Brunt. When you use Code Adam at checkout, just head to bruntworkwear.com use the code ADAM and you're good to go. After you order, they'll ask you where you heard about Brunt. Do us a favor and tell him it was from this show. It's time to check Adam's voicemail.

[Adam Carolla]

Hello, this is Al. I would like my piano tuned. It's out of tune. But I understand you tune pianos for the Hollywood stars. But I live in New York. But I hope you can tune my piano because I have to play Bach, Beethoven, but I can't do it because my piano's out of tune. All right. I hope you can call me back and tune my piano.

[Mike Dawson]

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

[Adam Carolla]

Karen Feehan is back on the show. That's a reference to a sign I used to have on my car about tuning pianos. Yeah. Cause I used to see people in the neighborhood, every once in a while, I'd see a piano tuner parked in front of their house. I was like, that guy's a winner. Cause if there's a piano tuner parked in front of your house, you're a winner.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. You own a piano, and you gotta.

[Adam Carolla]

Have a nice one if it needs tuning. Like a Steinway, like a grand. And it also means you probably. Your kids probably play, so you're paying for lessons. You seem smart and affluent. And affluent.

[Karen Feehan]

Cultured.

[Adam Carolla]

Cultured. Cultured, Right. So I'm not gonna do any of that shit. But if I got a sign and I put it on a car in front of my house, then people would think, man, that guy's got it going on.

[Karen Feehan]

I like this.

[Adam Carolla]

So I did that. I have the sign, but then I put it on. We have a nanny. I put it on her car. I said, you gotta have this parked in front of my house.

[Karen Feehan]

Okay.

[Adam Carolla]

And then at some point, she didn't want it on her car, so then I had to put it on my car. So then I drove around, and then people thought I tuned pianos. It worked for a while. I can ignore the sign is you can get anything on a magnetic sign, by the way.

[Karen Feehan]

That's a good prank.

[Adam Carolla]

Karen is gonna be playing the main room at the Comedy Store. That's cool. That's coming up in a couple days. October 8th, out here in Los Angeles and then heading to a theater. And I'm trying to pronounce it correctly.

[Karen Feehan]

The Emamus Imamus. I might be pronouncing it wrong. Emmas.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes. Theater. And that's in Pennsylvania. That'll be coming up beginning of January. Got the Only Fee Hands podcast and the special Don't Serve Me. That's out. Is that only fans of tv.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

How's that working?

[Karen Feehan]

I mean, it's doing well. People are watching it. People are liking it. It was fun to shoot. It's good.

[Adam Carolla]

It popped up on my phone a lot.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, that's good.

[Adam Carolla]

And I'm not on Onlyfans. I don't know why, but it did. It did, like. It kept sort of popping up.

[Karen Feehan]

That's good. Somebody's doing that. Their job over there.

[Adam Carolla]

They're pushing that stuff out there. And you're on Onlyfans, right?

[Karen Feehan]

I also am on Onlyfans. Yeah. I'm triple dipping.

[Adam Carolla]

How you know, Forgive me, but I never know what degree people are on Onlyfans.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. I feel like mine's, like, kind Of, I wouldn't say it's boring, but it's like maybe rated R, PG 13. It's like, it's just me. There's nobody. I'm not making actual porn on there. It's just if you wanna see me naked, you can.

[Adam Carolla]

Okay. And it's. It's just.

[Karen Feehan]

Okay.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, I mean, I mean, it's like, look, I do.

[Karen Feehan]

Full blown porn.

[Adam Carolla]

I do full blown gay. No, I do. Oh, let's see. I was trying to think of. Oh, you know what someone was telling me. I was doing a tv. I like coming up with a good gay porn name.

[Karen Feehan]

Okay. Yeah, yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

You know, and someone was taping a show with Byron Allen and they said we had to stop because there was. Because of Mike Pop and I thought Mike Pop is a good gay porn name.

[Karen Feehan]

Absolutely.

[Adam Carolla]

Working with Mike Pop. Yeah, he's one of the best.

[Karen Feehan]

Get ready.

[Adam Carolla]

Mike Pop's. He's a pro. You know. One thing about Mike, he'll be top, he'll be a bottom, he'll be a power center.

[Karen Feehan]

He's whatever.

[Adam Carolla]

That's for sure. No, like I will do. Oh, shit, I lost my train of thought. Oh, I got it. I'll do cameo.

[Karen Feehan]

Okay, right.

[Adam Carolla]

So I go, why do you do cameo? And I go, I don't know, it makes me money.

[Karen Feehan]

I was gonna say I like money and it's easy.

[Adam Carolla]

And I also kind of. It's fine, it's fine. People want me to wish their dad a happy birthday or something. I don't have a problem with it. So would then. And occasionally I'll pull a ball sack out and just flash a little bit of fucking.

[Karen Feehan]

Happy birthday, dad.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, Your face now looks like this old man. Here I go. So would it be like the equivalent of like cameo in the sense that you don't mind it, you make extra money and why not?

[Karen Feehan]

I'd argue you're actually putting in more effort. Because what I'm offering is not customized. It is a one stop shop. You buy it if you want it. It's like a pay per view. And if you don't like it, you.

[Adam Carolla]

Don'T have to buy update it.

[Karen Feehan]

You know, now that it's. I've had it for a while, it's kind of like feeding itself, you know, it's like the more followers I get on other platforms, they kind of just leak over there for lack of a better term.

[Adam Carolla]

And like when your special comes out on OnlyFans and people cross promotion. Oh, now I want to see some titties.

[Karen Feehan]

Yep, exactly. You got it.

[Adam Carolla]

Thank you.

[Karen Feehan]

You're a marketing genius.

[Adam Carolla]

I came up with a theory, and I want to know what you think about this theory. As a comedian, I like to study people, and I'm interested not in the good, but in the bad. And usually the. Sort of hard to describe. And I was thinking about some of the people I know who have a bad sense of direction.

[Karen Feehan]

Women.

[Adam Carolla]

The person that has the worst sense of direction is Jimmy Kimmel. And then another one is another guy I travel with named Mike August. Now, Jimmy, one time. One time, we were in Seattle. We were in Seattle for the Final Four when UCLA went to the Final four billion years ago with our radio crew, the morning crew. And he said to us in the rental car, I'm gonna show you. I'm gonna bring you by my old radio station. I used to work. I worked in Seattle for a year, maybe more. And I'll drive you guys by the station as radio guys, and we'll meet my radio guys at my radio station, Seattle. We drove around for 11 hours. No, he could not find the place he worked at full time. He worked there full time for a year in Seattle. And that. Seattle's. You know, it's only so big.

[Karen Feehan]

That's crazy. You gotta have muscle memory for that, right? Don't you just, like, click in the autopilot?

[Adam Carolla]

One time he. He, like, left my house, and he goes, I'm going home. And he turned the wrong direction, like he was driving the wrong. He was driving away from his house, and he'd been in my house 10,000 times. And he's like, I don't know.

[Karen Feehan]

I can relate to that.

[Adam Carolla]

A lot of people have it. But that's not my theory. My theory. And then there's Jimmy, and then there's Mike August. Now, what Mike August does is he goes, come on, it's this way. And he starts walking with purpose. Like he. He leans into his walk and walks hard. And then I run behind him and I go, mike, Mike, I don't think we're going the right way. I don't think. And he goes, it's this way. And I. And he walks with purpose, right? And then at some point, we realize we're going the wrong way and we stop. But here's my theory. Are you ready now?

[Karen Feehan]

I'm ready.

[Adam Carolla]

Are these people with a bad sense of direction, or are they headstrong people who don't question themselves? Because Dr. Drew always is questioning himself. Like, am I going the right way? Like, when you're leading or you're going, you have to go Am I going the right way? Am I going the right way? I don't know which way back to the hotel or which way back here, which way to the club or whatever. But if you are super headstrong and it's just. You're always right.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Then you just march in whatever direction you want, and you never question yourself. So is it an actual compass issue or is it a headstrong issue? Because Jimmy's headstrong, Right. And he just doesn't believe he would go the wrong way.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, that's.

[Adam Carolla]

And he doesn't stop and go, like, hold on, am I going the right. Like, he wouldn't do that. He would just go the wrong way. And it can serve you as well. It's not all bad, but I'm just saying, I thought my whole life it was a bad sense of direction, but maybe it's a bad sense of self.

[Karen Feehan]

It's a commitment.

[Adam Carolla]

When Mike walks, he doesn't entertain the notion that he could be wrong. He could be wrong, and we're going the wrong way. And as a matter of fact, one time I told him, I just go, mike, you're going the wrong way. We're going to Harrah's. And he just said, all roads lead to Harris. And he took off. And I thought, so is it a bad compass or is it a Not sort of checking? Because the people with the personalities who say stuff like, listen, just a theory. I could be wrong. I don't know. I've been wrong before. They don't have that thing where they.

[Karen Feehan]

Go the wrong direction and stick with it.

[Adam Carolla]

And stick with it.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. I feel like it's gotta be a combination, because instinctually, I will take turns. Like, my body will be like, this is the way you're supposed to go. My body will start going that way. And I'm almost always wrong. But I question myself the second I get a sense of, like, this might be wrong. I look at my Google Maps and I'm like, you're going. You couldn't be going more wrong. You couldn't be more incorrect.

[Adam Carolla]

Right.

[Karen Feehan]

I think, like, the commitment to the wrong direction, that's an ego thing. At a certain point where it's like, you couldn't even think that maybe you're leading people into the wrong going the wrong way.

[Adam Carolla]

I have an exquisite sense of direction, but I'm also. Mike's personality will take over mine. And I, with this good sense of direction, will be in the back following him. You get swept up, because I get swept up in his righteous mania. And now I'm really starting to wonder, is it a direction thing or is it just a headstrong thing? Because everyone I know who does it is headstrong. Because you can't go the wrong direction if you stop all the time and go, hold on, am I going the right way? What do you think?

[Karen Feehan]

Do they use Google Map? Are they using any type of tool to help or it's just all internal?

[Adam Carolla]

This is usually internal, but Mike does have it on his phone and it's wrong.

[Karen Feehan]

There's no way this is right. He's like, he disagrees with Google Maps.

[Adam Carolla]

He will. It is whatever this technology is, it does not aid him. But it's sort of like people that are like, you know, they'll go, trump said to inject bleach. And you go, we can watch the tape. He didn't say to do that. And they go, I don't care. I know what I know. It's like, all right, well, I guess you can defeat technology with just stubbornness and headstrong. Yeah, you can be super headstrong and get past Google Maps or CNN clips or whatever.

[Karen Feehan]

Google Maps doesn't know what I know.

[Adam Carolla]

That's right.

[Karen Feehan]

They haven't been to bakery before.

[Adam Carolla]

Right. So my theory now has gone from a directional thing to a sort of mindset, personality driven, strong alpha kind of set.

[Karen Feehan]

But the time wasted is brutal, though. Like, I think about time efficiency all the time. However far you're going the wrong way, you're gonna have to double back to go the right way.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes.

[Karen Feehan]

That makes me very anxious.

[Adam Carolla]

I don't like the waste of time either. But I guess in a world where everyone's trying to get their steps in.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, God. I know.

[Adam Carolla]

It probably doesn't matter anymore.

[Karen Feehan]

I know. I follow Gary Breca. Do you know Gary Breca?

[Adam Carolla]

No.

[Karen Feehan]

He's like, all the time. He's like, post your steps. Post your steps. I like trolling him a little bit too. Like, he'll be like, how many this did you do today? And I'll be like 69. Or he'll be like, what'd you put in your coffee this morning? I'll be like, come. He never likes my tweets. Yeah, but I'll do a step count. I hit like 19k yesterday.

[Adam Carolla]

Really?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, I keep hiking.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, sorry. But wait a minute. Whose cum did you put in the coffee?

[Karen Feehan]

Whatever. Whosever was around. I think it was my dad's.

[Adam Carolla]

I did coconut milk this morning. I thought I was.

[Karen Feehan]

You are gay. I was gay Nut milk.

[Adam Carolla]

I woke up in Vegas. And how's Vegas? You know, Vegas is fine. I forgot, first off, Vegas is not cheap anymore. Vegas used to be cheap. You used to go to Vegas and you'd gamble. But then food and drinks and everything were, like, practically free. A beer was, like, 14 bucks. I got two lattes at the Starbucks. It was 25 bucks.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, come on.

[Adam Carolla]

Two.

[Karen Feehan]

What the hell?

[Adam Carolla]

I know.

[Karen Feehan]

What the hell? Did strippers make it them for you? Like what?

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Karen Feehan]

Yes.

[Adam Carolla]

No. And I was thinking back, it was crazy. But I used to go see if Binion's. Dawson. See if Binion's still has their steak dinner. You wonder how far things have changed. I used to go there when I was, you know, a million years ago with Jimmy, and he'd go, we gotta go to Binion's. I got the $1.99 steak meal.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, boy.

[Adam Carolla]

You get $1.99. You get a potato, you get a steak, and you get. You get a steak dinner for $1.99.

[Karen Feehan]

That's crazy.

[Adam Carolla]

And it's like downtown, way off out of the way. But we're going to Binions, and I can't imagine Jimmy eating at. Because she's such a foodie now. But we would go to Binion's and get. And we'd order two each because, you know, $4, you know, but with tip, it would be probably five bucks for two. Two meals. Yes. And I don't know if Binion still has. But the point is, is Vegas figured out that we can't just rely on people losing at the gambling table. We have to generate income.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. And you're kind of trapped when you're there. So you're like. You're. You know, you gotta. He says, Binions is gone.

[Adam Carolla]

Binions is there.

[Mike Dawson]

We're looking at their menu that says nothing about no steak dinner, no spin. And it looks pretty pricey, too.

[Karen Feehan]

Big menu.

[Adam Carolla]

When is the last time Binions had their Buck 99 steak meal, by the way? Jesus Christ.

[Karen Feehan]

But anyway, sweet indulgence.

[Adam Carolla]

It's. You know, Vegas is like. Did a bunch of shows over at Kimmel's Club over there, and it seemed pretty good. You know, UFC was in town and all that stuff. Yeah, yeah, it was. It was. It was good. Are you East Coast?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, I'm a New York girl.

[Adam Carolla]

Are you? How's the scene in New York?

[Karen Feehan]

I love it.

[Adam Carolla]

You do?

[Karen Feehan]

I work at the Stand mostly, and New York Comedy Club, I love it there. I. Some people, when I bring up RFK Jr. They boo him. And then I ask them if they like the tap water they're drinking because it would be dirty without him. They don't like that.

[Adam Carolla]

I was coming home from Vegas and I got behind. Let's just think about how crazy this is. I got behind a Tesla on the 15 and was like, don't blame me. I bought this car and I was like, oh, remember 10 minutes ago, they were burning Tesla dealerships and spiking their tires and keying Teslas and stuff. And I'm like, are we just. Here's what I want to say to people are, so we're done with Elon. But by the way, like, how do I explain this to future generations? Like, what happened? There was this guy who's a genius from South Africa, and he came here and he made an electric car. Oh, they hate electric. No, no, they love electric cars. Oh, okay. And then what? Well, he's. He was a genius and he built electric cars, and they love the guy. But then. Then what happened? Well, he bought Twitter.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

For what? For free speech. Oh, okay, so they love the guy more. No, no. Now they're angry. Why they angry? Just opened up the thing. Well, they, like, they didn't want to admit that they used Twitter to do whatever the fuck they wanted. And they hated free speech. They just wanted their speech. But he opened up. So anyway, then he started a department called Doge where he was going to save taxpayers a whole bunch of money. Oh, they must have loved. Know that made him more angry.

[Karen Feehan]

Mad, really?

[Adam Carolla]

What do you mean they started burning Teslas? Wait a minute. I thought they loved the environment, yet they do. Okay, but then what? So what happened? Oh, nothing.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, nothing. They were forgiven.

[Adam Carolla]

But how long were they burning the. Like, 15 minutes.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Then they were done.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, he figured out that we were paying for circumcisions in, like, whatever. Like Senegal.

[Adam Carolla]

Right, right, right. Or circumcision education in Senegal or something.

[Karen Feehan]

And.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, and so he wanted to save more money and they wanted to burn the Teslas down. Okay, but so are they still mad at Tesla? No, no, that was some weeks ago.

[Karen Feehan]

And it's like tantrum. It's like teenagers having a tantrum. And then it's like, all right, they were just moody. There was hormones.

[Adam Carolla]

When people get pissed off about nothing, they go back to homeostasis, like, pretty quick. Here's what I'm saying. If there's a real. Like, if a spouse cheats. Right. That's a real issue, you know, and then that woman may not forgive and may bring that up periodically for quite. You know, you could be Seven years down the road, and you'd be like, I'm in the mood for Thai food. Oh, like, your girlfriend used to love Thai food. Is that why you want Thai? Like, they'll get in. It's a fresh wound. And that band aid's ready to rip off the drop of a hat all the time. But then there's people that freak out, get pissed off, like, over nothing. And then you go, oh, that person's really pissed off. And then two minutes later, like, they're not pissed off. Cause it's nothing and they shouldn't have been that pissed off in the first place. So they go nuts over stuff. Like, people in Atlanta can't get water to vote to stand in line. And there's a rule of 200ft from the polling place. And it's like. Then 10 minutes later, you go, what about that stuff you're freaked out about? And they go, I don't care. Move the All Star Game back to I don't care anymore. Like, okay, I thought, what about IDs for black people or something? Yeah, yeah, we don't care. So we don't care. We don't care about Tesla anymore because they never should have cared in the first place. Because he wasn't doing anything right.

[Karen Feehan]

People just, like, a rage. People like a rage out. They like to just take it to the streets, have a tantrum. And then, like, little kids, like, sorry, didn't mean it. So is that not a lot of accountability?

[Adam Carolla]

Is that what's going on? This thing where, like, kids, they're just having a meltdown and a tantrum, and then, like, the same kid, you know, it's like a kid will go, like, I don't want to eat at this restaurant or something. They'll come in and they'll fight, and he'll scream in the car and stuff. And then at some point, a plate sets down with French fries in front of them. They just start eating it like it never happened kind of thing?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, like, wipe the tears away. Like, I guess this is good.

[Adam Carolla]

I mean, this Tesla thing is like, first off, it's like it's never happened to all the fucking people that were burning Teslas 10 minutes ago.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And I know they're all fighting with ice now.

[Karen Feehan]

I guess that's they're very mad at ice.

[Adam Carolla]

They're now mad at ice.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, they've switched.

[Adam Carolla]

They had no thoughts about ice before this. Now it's weird. It's like they. It's like when they all became experts on Ivermectin in Two days. You know what I mean? Like, you guys are all scientists. I had never heard you bring up Ivermectin before. Why are you an expert now?

[Mike Dawson]

They're also all listening to Bad Bunny.

[Adam Carolla]

They're listening to Bad Bunny and fighting with ice.

[Karen Feehan]

Learning Spanish.

[Adam Carolla]

And, man, they. I saw there was one of the greatest. I don't know why. I think it's a dude thing. But you tell me. You may have a little dude wiring. I don't know. There's a clip, Dawson, of. Speaking of Bad Bunny, one of the guys is out there protesting with ice. Is wearing inflatable, like, bunny uniform or Pikachu or some shit. I don't know what that was.

[Mike Dawson]

Yeah. And the guy pepper sprays him in the butt or through the vent?

[Adam Carolla]

No, he does it through the vent so they can't pepper spray him to his face. Cause his eyeballs are fake and they're vinyl. Right. So this guy takes the pepper spray. This is why this. It's like the time I farted into a coffee can and told Jimmy he should check out the Sumatra roast, you know? And he put his nose in it.

[Karen Feehan]

Good.

[Adam Carolla]

And I went, got you.

[Karen Feehan]

Good prank.

[Adam Carolla]

There's an inlet on the side of the thing that keeps it inflated.

[Karen Feehan]

And he just blasted it with pepper spray.

[Adam Carolla]

He just put it in. Cause you couldn't pepper spray the guys outside. So he just sucked it into the thing. Which is pretty cool.

[Karen Feehan]

It's pretty innovative. It's like, good thinking.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. That guy deserves a race. So he took also.

[Karen Feehan]

So what was he mad at? He was protesting. What? Somebody's in a.

[Adam Carolla]

He's at the ice facility, maybe in Portland.

[Karen Feehan]

Of course.

[Adam Carolla]

And they're just out there doing battle.

[Karen Feehan]

Okay.

[Adam Carolla]

And it's tons of crazy chicks, which is weird.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And it's also women. It strikes me when eventually they get tackled to the ground. They don't have context like men do. So men spend their early years getting tackled to the ground. I got tackled to the ground. My entire childhood was like, literally.

[Karen Feehan]

That was part of rough.

[Adam Carolla]

Dudes put me in a headlock and take me down to the ground. Women stand in front of cops and, like, spit at em. And at some point, the cop takes them down and they start screaming, what's going on?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And it's like, well, you're going to the ground, bitch, because you just spat them. You don't know what this context is.

[Karen Feehan]

Right. You can't do that.

[Adam Carolla]

All right, so it's a guy in an inflatable outfit.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, my God. Hold on.

[Adam Carolla]

And the Guy just sprays and he slowly melts. He just sprays it into the inlet.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, that's smart.

[Adam Carolla]

But also, you're asking for.

[Karen Feehan]

I'm shrinking.

[Adam Carolla]

You can't. First off, I think future generations are gonna grow up with an immunity to pepper spray.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Like these kids, grandkids, you could spray mace in their face and they'd go, what else you got? Cause like how. How cockroaches get used to the poison. Like, bugs will get past the poison, they'll breed the poison out.

[Karen Feehan]

Darwinism.

[Adam Carolla]

It's Darwinism. These riders, their kids, their grandkids, pepper spray won't affect them because pepper spray used to fuck people up and now it's kind of a. It's an annoyance or an inconvenience.

[Karen Feehan]

Now what are we trying to say in these inflatables? Like, what is the messaging of, like, I'm a dinosaur. I don't understand. What point are we getting across?

[Adam Carolla]

I don't know. But with all these assholes, think about if you had bought in stock like five years ago in plywood and pepper spray, right?

[Karen Feehan]

You'd be a millionaire.

[Adam Carolla]

You'd be a fucking millionaire.

[Karen Feehan]

Right now all I have is Nvidia.

[Adam Carolla]

Also, I gotta say, if you gave me one of those non lethal guns that just shot pepper spray balls or rubber bullets or something, you're having fun on Halloween. I don't know how long I could stand there while someone called me a dipshit and an asshole before I just. A fucking round. You'd have to squeeze a round off, right?

[Karen Feehan]

Just making sure it works. Yeah, I don't know.

[Adam Carolla]

I'm not trying to keep it chamber primed, boss, or something.

[Karen Feehan]

Quality control, right?

[Adam Carolla]

I have no idea who these people are. I'm assuming they're the same ones that were in front of the Tesla dealerships.

[Karen Feehan]

But also they're the same people that's like, you guys are wearing masks, you're covering your eyes identities, you're in a whole dinosaur outfit. Like, the hypocrisy is a little much for my taste.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes, I agree. And they're wearing a mask because you guys are doxing them. And then people are.

[Karen Feehan]

Or they're like Violet Affleck and they're wearing an N95 mask because we all should be.

[Adam Carolla]

She's awesome. We all need scrubbed, filtered HEPA air. It's a human, right?

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, my God. She's like. She probably can't survive a sinus infection.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, the thing. Why does she have a platform? Why are they letting her talk?

[Karen Feehan]

Because her parents, a Little thing called nepotism, I think.

[Adam Carolla]

Gross.

[Karen Feehan]

I know, I.

[Adam Carolla]

If I were banned, I'd be like, listen.

[Karen Feehan]

Humiliating, right?

[Adam Carolla]

I'm gonna get a hobo to kill you, right?

[Karen Feehan]

Like, I'm getting back with JLo if you keep it up.

[Mike Dawson]

I'd be like, please act.

[Adam Carolla]

Just. Just act seriously.

[Karen Feehan]

Do porn. Be like Spielberg's daughter. I don't care.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, anything but sound like who you are.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, it's so embarrassing. It's like, go to the gym. Like, fix your immune system. You're a nerd.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, also, don't people know people have jobs in, like, coal mines and stuff? And, like, really shitty tough. Like, they operate heavy equipment all day. Like, everybody who's working, rebuilding the Palisades and Pasadena, Altadena and Malibu, they're sitting behind a backhoe all day just knocking dust around and throwing dirt around and all. That's all you do. Want your swimming pool dug, right? Bitch, I know you're inside with your HEPA filter, but there's some Mexicans outside in a bobcat.

[Karen Feehan]

Where's the regard for them? Why don't you care about those guys?

[Adam Carolla]

I don't even know what she wanted exactly.

[Karen Feehan]

She wants us all in masks to save the babies. The morale, the finger wagging really fricking ticks me off. I'm like, you want everybody to live in a bubble. Like, this sucks. She's see through, and I feel like it's coming from Jen. And I don't hate Jennifer Garner, but she seems. She seems like she's got like, a little touch of, like, the ocd. Maybe like a very Lysol home, Not a little bit of dirt under.

[Adam Carolla]

I am completely convinced that living with her would be like. Like, you go, what are you doing tomorrow? And then she'd go, my Pilates Instructor's coming at 6am So I gotta be up at 5:15. I'm doing two hours of Pilates. And then at some point you'd go, you know, and I'm gonna take the trash cans out. And then you'd come back in and she'd go, we smoking?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And you go, taking the trash cans out. Let me smell your fingers.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, no.

[Adam Carolla]

And then you're like. And then you're like. And then you said to her like, you said to her, like, at some point you went, you know what? I'm fucking craving a Bloomin Onion from Outback Steakhouse. And she's like, I'm doing jicama. I'm just doing jicama. And you're like, fuck, I Just want a fucking cigarette and a blooming onion. That's all I want. And she's like, well, eat it alone on the balcony.

[Karen Feehan]

We're getting divorced.

[Adam Carolla]

Do not come in the house with cuticles smelling like Bloomin Onions and Marlboros, all right? Cause that's what you smell like. Right?

[Karen Feehan]

He cleans the house for the cleaning lady. You know, she's.

[Adam Carolla]

Look, will you help me? You want to live with a responsible person and a person that is mostly sober and a person who takes care of business, but you don't wanna live with a person where, like, on a Saturday, you crack a beer at 1pm and they're like, isn't it a little early for that? And you go, okay, all right. And then they go, your socks were on the bathroom floor. And you're like, it was just one sock. You know, what? Could you. And it's like. Then it becomes. And the over. You know, she's doing Pilates somewhere right now, and he's smoking like he's on a balcony watching the guy in the Pilates Prius pull up and he's going.

[Karen Feehan]

Hey, the Pilates guy's here ripping a safe.

[Adam Carolla]

I'm gonna get a Bloomin Onion. Have fun.

[Karen Feehan]

I gotta.

[Adam Carolla]

And then, you know, she comes out. She goes, you know, you're really not as flexible as you should be. And he's like, I just want to smoke another cigarette and have a fucking beer.

[Karen Feehan]

Leave me alone.

[Adam Carolla]

Just leave me alone. Right? It's too much.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Now you want. But you don't want the opposite, which is a slob. You don't want a savage. Right, Right. You want.

[Karen Feehan]

You don't want ants in your house.

[Adam Carolla]

You want. Takes care business.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Just be middle Saturday night, gonna have.

[Karen Feehan]

A drink, let it rip a little bit.

[Adam Carolla]

Let it rip a little bit.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. Have fun. Everybody's supposed to have fun sometimes.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. The problem is the balance, as I think of it now.

[Karen Feehan]

But people like that are warped. So their balance isn't balanced. Their balance is stringent.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I don't know. Like, this JLo, like JLo's whole thing is she's gotta look like she's 28 when she's 75. Right. And that just means you gotta take it easy on the martinis and the bloomin onions and the Barbara's. Right? Like, you just can't.

[Karen Feehan]

You have to go work out with her and, like, other Spanish guys that are ripped and stuff that stare at her ass. Like, you just have to act like that's cool.

[Adam Carolla]

He's gonna bring his bad bunny mixtape in and you guys are gonna get.

[Karen Feehan]

On, start rolling your Rs, you know, just like get in the mix. But I would prefer that than somebody who's like, now we're gonna. What do you wanna do this weekend, babe? I don't know. Oxiclean the tiles? Like, no.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, I think in life, but it's kind of the renaissance man thing. You need to have like a balance, you know, you need to work and then when you're not working, you can have some fun, but you gotta get back to working.

[Karen Feehan]

I saw some Instagram, some video where this chick was like, I do whatever my guy wants to do on the weekends because he works. I think this guy was like, working like, you know, like blue collar, like labor, like job.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Karen Feehan]

And like six days a week. And so she's like, so if on the weekends he wants to go to a monster truck, like rally, like, is that what I want to do? No, not really. But I'm happy he wants to hang out with me when he's not working. So yeah, I'm gonna put on my monster truck T shirt and I'm gonna go because it makes him happy. And that make. That makes sense to me. I mean, I, like, I don't live that lifestyle, but that, that makes logical sense to me. If a guy's grinding six days a week to provide for you so you can be a stay at home mom, I don't know, go to the monster truck thing with him, what's the big deal?

[Adam Carolla]

I agree. But that's like heretic talk around here.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, I know, I know.

[Adam Carolla]

People fucking hate that. And I've always been a fan of that, but then always got yelled at by everybody and they think you're a bad person. And the deal is, look, I've always felt that way and I felt it's kind of necessary. You cannot keep someone. And I got.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, you're telling me you want the guy to come home and then do chores and take care of the kids and everything.

[Adam Carolla]

One of the reasons people, one of my people would cite me as a.

[Karen Feehan]

Douchebag is I like a parenthetical.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, when you're doing my eulogy and you're doing the douchebag side of the equation, they will cite this, but I was early money on this. I'm talking. This is 20 years ago. I said to my ex wife at the time, I don't think we had kids at the time. She didn't cook anything. So she was like, we're Gonna get Indian food. And at some point, we ordered it, and then it was like, who's getting the Indian food? Who's gonna pick it up? And I said, well, you pick it up. And she said, why do I have to pick it up? Why don't you pick it up? And I said, and this is 20 years ago, and everyone thinks I'm a huge, huge. I said, look, get in the Jaguar that I lease you, and then take it and go down the driveway that I paid for. Right. And then go through the electronic gates that I made. I made those gates. Yeah. And then drive down the street and get to the. Get to the inn in place. And then pull the credit card out that I pay for. Yeah. And then get back in the Jag and come back through the gates to the big house I pay the mortgage on. And then we'll eat the food. That's how this is gonna work. And everyone's like, you're the biggest douche in the world. I don't know. I'll call myself a realist. And by the way, if you flip the script on that.

[Karen Feehan]

Right. Boss bitch or whatever, like, if the woman is paying for everything and then the guy. I don't know. Yeah. I just feel if you're the one creating the lifestyle financially, I mean, if you really are, like, the person who's paying all the bills, the other person should maybe appreciate it. I don't know.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, man. I gotta tell you, I don't quote a lot of other people.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

But when Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray.

[Karen Feehan]

The prophet of our time.

[Adam Carolla]

This seared. It seared into my head. I know exactly where I was. I don't know where I was when my kids were born or any of that bullshit or anyone's middle name or birth date or anything. I was standing on the patio, the back patio of Jimmy Kimmel's house during one of his parties, million years ago. And Mark McGrath, who's a real nice guy, he just came up to me and he goes, adam, I think he'd been married for a few years. He goes, since when did paying for everything count for nothing? And I was like, oh, my God. Oh, my God, Yes. I don't know. I don't know when it got down to zero. But we're there. We're there. And he looked at me and he's like, I know. Like, pay for everything, get nothing. And I go, I know. Me too. That's the arrangement. And by the way, that's the arrangement. For some reason, society or California or Hollywood or something, they Applaud that arrangement. Like if you go, hey woman, I've been working all day now how about you make me some vittles or something? It's like you are gonna fucking move in with Joey Buttafuoco. That's really what it would be. And I'm like, I disagree with that.

[Karen Feehan]

I mean, yeah, there's different scenarios, right? If it's a 50 50, which a lot of marriages nowadays are, right. It's like the mom's working, the dad's working, then I think like, yeah, share the load of like, listen, the home.

[Adam Carolla]

If both people are working, then by all means have the take turns. Yeah, well listen, you're successful, you're working, I'm successful, I'm working. Hire the cleaning, there we go. But if you're home all day, don't have the cleaning crew push a vacuum past your feet when you're watching tv.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, I knew somebody in a relationship who was just fronting the bill for a everything, like buying, you know, and his like his girl was only happy when like things were getting bought for her. Like those were the best days when she was like getting like a new purse or like getting taken on like a shopping spree. Even though she had, I mean the thought, I, I've been single for a while, I'm independently wealthy. The thought of not having to pay rent, oh my God, I would like suck the guy's dick from morning till night. I would be so happy. I'd like to just that one monthly nut just like taking off my plate. Like I would think they were like an angel. But I can't date somebody I'm not attracted to. And I think that that's probably my biggest problem.

[Adam Carolla]

Mark McGrath also said sugar Ray had been to the mountain and was coming down the backside. And I remember, I go, mark, where are you guys playing? You playing some gigs? You're touring? And he goes, wherever you smell funnel cake, that's where we'll be.

[Karen Feehan]

The fair, the local fair scene.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes, yes. I just, I, but I thought, I love a good, I love a self deprecating sense of humor.

[Karen Feehan]

Honest.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, so you're right, we need to get back to that.

[Karen Feehan]

Listen, if you've got that kind of arrangement, I don't know, Football wives seem to have it figured out. They're nice to, they make tiktoks for their guys. They show up on game day. They don't seem to bother them if they're cheating. I, I mean some of them like they seem to have it figured out.

[Adam Carolla]

I believe that when you Take people, men or women or groups, and you kind of go, you don't have to do anything. They immediately start going insane. And like studies, like they took all the enhanced we wanted in the 50s, I think we wanted to test out a H bomb, hydrogen bomb, I think it probably would have been. And we wanted to blow up like an island or a bay or something. And we weren't gonna do it to Manhattan, but we were gonna do it to the Bikini Islands. But the Bikini islands had people that lived on the Bikini Islands, like guys who hunted and fished and stuff like that. And we took all the people in this Bikini island and we went, look, no more hunting or fishing. Cause we wanna blow up your island, but we'll send you a different island and we'll put a, we'll put a bumper pool table there and all the beer you want, right? And you don't have to hunt or fish anymore, right? And 10 minutes later they're all fucking fat and miserable and alcoholic, fighting each other. All fighting each other. And they're all alcohol.

[Karen Feehan]

They have no purpose.

[Adam Carolla]

That's how it works, everyone. So stop trying to figure out ways to give shit to people for free.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, you need a purpose.

[Adam Carolla]

You need a purpose.

[Karen Feehan]

If you're gonna enter the transaction of like rich husband, stay at home, mom, then you gotta, that's part of the transaction. Like be purposeful in care about your home and your kids. I don't know.

[Adam Carolla]

But you know, it doesn't sound too shabby. I was out to dinner last night after I did two shows with my son and his friend who I like. The friend is dad is Armenian.

[Karen Feehan]

Okay.

[Adam Carolla]

And the mom is American Indian, like from I don't know which tribe, whatever. And I go. And I knew. And he's a nice kid, probably good looking kid, good looking. And I said, well, how's it going? Oh, they're building a new casino in Sacramento and blah blah, blah. And I go, oh, I said, how's that work? Like can you get in there and get some free shrimp or something like that? And they go, no, no, everyone gets paid every month. Like who's in the trunk?

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, right. They get.

[Adam Carolla]

You don't have to go there and run the floor shampooer or anything like valet blanket. No, no, I don't have to. But anyone who's more than, you know, 15%, this just gets a check for the rest of their life. Casino or. You don't have to go there, you don't have to work there, you don't do anything. By the way, it's just one side of your family. Dad's armo. But you get a check every month for the rest of your life. And when they build new casino, then maybe get another check.

[Mike Dawson]

I hear some tribes you have to be a man.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, really?

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, interesting.

[Adam Carolla]

That's interesting. And the funny thing is, is that would piss off AOC but she'd be at a weird loggerhead thing because, like, on one hand she hates men. On the other hand, she loves the indigenous people and their peaceful ways, right? So it's like, how would she.

[Karen Feehan]

How would she be.

[Adam Carolla]

She's not gonna. She's gonna have trouble with this one, right?

[Karen Feehan]

That's a math problem she can't solve.

[Adam Carolla]

Are they in 2025, Dawson? Is it still? Some of them are. Some of them are dude based.

[Mike Dawson]

I believe so. I'm not 100% on this, but I know it used to be, if it's not still with the Chumash.

[Adam Carolla]

I had to tell this kid, you know, you're American Indian. He goes, yeah. I go, there's. There was a famous 80s Indian American Indian standup comic named Charlie Hill. We had to look it up. And we've looked at his work and stuff on the show. There was an Indian American and his opening joke was, hi, how are you? Hey, how are you? He would walk out on stage. Hey. And everyone loved it, right? It was like, that's gonna make the pale face laugh. Right? But I don't know what he did past, hi, how are you? You know what I mean?

[Karen Feehan]

Where do you go from there?

[Adam Carolla]

Right? But that's what he. And he would be on the Tonight show and everything else. And I was like, do you know this guy? And he's like, nope, no. And I'm like, there's one.

[Karen Feehan]

And you don't know.

[Adam Carolla]

Stand up and you don't know. And I go, and how about the greatest athlete ever? He goes, who? And I go, jim Thorpe, American Indian. And he goes, never heard of him.

[Karen Feehan]

Wow.

[Adam Carolla]

And I'm like, what goes on?

[Karen Feehan]

What do you guys talk about?

[Adam Carolla]

How many. Jim Thorpe. The guy was Olympian. It was a picture. He. Jim Thorpe played like professional baseball, professional football, professional basketball.

[Karen Feehan]

He's like the Bo Jackson of American Indians Jackson.

[Adam Carolla]

That's right. He's. He's the bow and Arrow Jackson.

[Karen Feehan]

Really good.

[Adam Carolla]

Thank you. He's the Bow and Arrow Jackson of Native American sports. And this kid. And I'm like, well, first off, you can't just hammer checks and not know anything. You gotta get a little, like, you gotta to keep it up, keep up Appearances. A little bit.

[Karen Feehan]

Shouldn't they be teaching us things about their culture? Like, shouldn't we.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, I fucking. We were eating sushi. I threw my chopsticks at him and said, start a fucking fire, bitch.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, let's see it.

[Adam Carolla]

Let's start. Go.

[Karen Feehan]

Or at least.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Mike Dawson]

Just wanted to follow up on this. I'm not sure if there is a no women. However, a lot of thousands of Chumash descendants with more Chumash DNA than the tribal members are locked out.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, really?

[Mike Dawson]

Not everybody gets it, okay?

[Karen Feehan]

You have to have a certain amount.

[Mike Dawson]

Pretty effing corrupt.

[Karen Feehan]

Okay.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, it's got. It can only go that way.

[Karen Feehan]

But I'm just saying, native nepotism.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, first I'm sitting there thinking, why am I paying for dinner?

[Karen Feehan]

Absolutely. Shouldn't this go on the Cherokee Amex?

[Mike Dawson]

There are about a hundred, 250 people who share what the Chumash casino makes.

[Adam Carolla]

Speaking of share. Speaking of share.

[Karen Feehan]

I'm really good.

[Adam Carolla]

Simply Safe. Will you ever wonder if your security system's really security? I don't know. I mean, I just saw a video of an arsonist trying to torch a family's house. Simply Safe. It stops these guys cold, right? Then before the flames start, you can hear the monitoring agent on the phone with dispatch. Total pro. Not sleeping on the job. Preventing this before it starts. Most systems, they wait until someone's in your house before they make their move and it's too late. Then Simply Safe. Their AI powered cameras catch these threats before they cross the line. Real agents confront the intruder, yelling over the speakers, sounding sirens, making it clear they're being watched and police are on the way. That's security before the crime, not after the crime. I trust Simplisafe. I use them. I've always used them. They're a great sponsor. It's Simply safe. Right, Dawson?

There's something in the blood.

[Adam Carolla]

Charlie Hill. You ready? 1977. Richard Pryor.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, wow.

[Adam Carolla]

Is bringing Charlie Hill on.

[Karen Feehan]

This looks familiar. She's beautiful.

[Adam Carolla]

Good. Dude. Hi, how are you? Hi, how are ya? Hi, how are ya? Hi, how are ya?

[Charlie Hill]

I usually have problems doing my act, you know? Cause I know a lot of you white people never seen an Indian do standup comedy before. You know, like, for so long, you probably thought that. That Indians never had a sense of humor, you know, we never thought you were too funny either.

[Karen Feehan]

Applause ring.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah.

[Charlie Hill]

See some people back there putting their chairs in a circle. My name is Charlie Hill. Segoli. I'm Oneida. I'm from Wisconsin. As part of the Iroquois Nation. My people are from Wisconsin. We used to be from New York. We had a little real estate problem.

[Karen Feehan]

They love it.

[Charlie Hill]

I came out here, Los Angeles, a few years ago. I don't drink. No, don't drink firewater. To Indians, that's just like kryptonite. Here, drink this. Sign this move here.

[Adam Carolla]

You know what I mean?

[Charlie Hill]

Indians. You know, people come up to me now too, and they say, can you speak Indian? And they're like, over 300 different tribes, you know, can you speak Indian? It's like saying, hey, can you speak Caucasian? But that's. That's the name they give us Indians. That's. Indians was the name Christopher Columbus gave us, which is incorrect. He named us Indians because he thought he was in India. You know, he wasn't looking for turkey.

[Adam Carolla]

Jive Turkey. All right, pause there. Now, you and I know we are. This is 2 minutes and 10 seconds into this act, right? And then you. Is it 2:10, or am I just off the top of my head? 2:16. 2:16. Okay. You gotta go out and headline. You gotta do an hour, right? Is it one hour of this? Yeah, of this. Or at some point you go, it's tough dating out there. And there's no Indian just dating, right?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. Does he have to stick to this specific topic the whole time?

[Adam Carolla]

And then I always. My question, and you. I don't know how you answer. And you'd have to be alive, but they had guys and they had a thing, you know, they go, you don't have to call me Johnny. You can call me Ray or you can call me Jay, but you doesn't have to call me Johnny. And they do a Miller, like, commercial. Or he'd do, hi, how are you? Yeah, but then at some point, you would headline, right? What are you doing? Are we doing the whole thing?

[Mike Dawson]

Well, like, that, first of all, you do. Hi, how are you? For about eight minutes.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, you knock that off, you get.

[Karen Feehan]

Everybody else doing it.

[Mike Dawson]

It's calling response.

[Karen Feehan]

I say, hi, you say, how are you? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Or was everything just sort of, you know, three, four, five minute hits on the Tonight show, on the Richard Pryor Show.

[Karen Feehan]

What a crowd. I mean, they just were on board from the jump with everything. Like, applause breaks from the beginning. That was awesome.

[Adam Carolla]

Now do you feel how much. I mean, so here's the thing. If you're American Indian, then you got a hook, you got a thing. But then you're kind of married to it. Like, in a weird way, you become a slave to this thing. Like if you're really fat or you have something going on visually, or you're a dwarf or something, like, you got it.

[Karen Feehan]

You gotta lean into the stigma.

[Adam Carolla]

You gotta lean into whatever it is.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. Hiding.

[Adam Carolla]

If you were a woman who was 6 foot 7 and you're doing stand up comedy, your whole act's gonna be about hitting your head on door jams.

[Karen Feehan]

Right? I'm like, why? You're not in the WNBA right now.

[Adam Carolla]

I, as just a white dude, like just plain white dude, heterosexual, nothing interesting about me, am sort of de facto forced to come up with material that's interesting. Cause that's not. Or. And it can be about anything. Because I'm not about anything.

[Karen Feehan]

You have a black.

[Adam Carolla]

I don't have, you know, my Italian heritage to discuss, you know, at length. Right. So do you feel some of that? I mean, there's a kind of freedom or a challenge in it. Like they go, look, you're not this and you're not that. You're just, you're a woman. You do stand up.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. Go, you're white.

[Adam Carolla]

You can do whatever you want.

[Karen Feehan]

Let's hear your take on Black Lives Matter.

[Adam Carolla]

Right? So in a way, big picture, it's a good thing.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. Cause it's broader, you know, because if people are buying tickets to see you and you're a Native American, they probably just want all Native American jokes.

[Adam Carolla]

Right.

[Karen Feehan]

But if they're buying tickets and you're just, you know, kind of a fun, slutty gal, they'll take what they get, I think.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, I always appreciate a comedian who could fall back on something but doesn't choose to get into that topicality.

[Karen Feehan]

Or they, like, branch far. They don't like Tim Dillon. Tim Dillon isn't like, I'm gay and fat. We can see him. We know those things are true. But that's not all he talks about. He's very diverse in what he talks about up there.

[Adam Carolla]

Yes. I think that's part of his appeal.

[Karen Feehan]

Absolutely.

[Adam Carolla]

I agree. And I always kind of respect it. And it always bothers me when it goes the other direction.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. When the gay guy's just nothing but gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay, gay. It's like, we get it. You're like, sinner, you're going to hell. Like, it's like. It's just so like, you know, hitting me over the head with it. I'm like, do you have any thoughts on other things?

[Adam Carolla]

And also, what if you didn't suck dick? Then what?

[Karen Feehan]

Then what?

[Adam Carolla]

Are you out of material?

[Karen Feehan]

Do you have nothing to say?

[Adam Carolla]

Well, I kind of feel that way too. Like, you should be up there because you're funny.

[Karen Feehan]

You have a point of view.

[Adam Carolla]

You have a point of view.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Right?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. And if your point of view is just. You're just so stuck in your lane. I don't know, but that's. People get crowds like that that are like minded. Like, they get followings of like, you know.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, speaking of that, for some reason I just looked up and saw it, but I'm gonna be in Rodney's in New York. I love Rodney's and I've never been there, so you can tell me.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, it's the old Dangerfields. It's great club.

[Adam Carolla]

Where is it located?

[Karen Feehan]

It's on like in the 50s on the east side. It's like 51st and 1st, I think Avenue.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. Okay.

[Karen Feehan]

Like midtown.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. All right. And I don't know why it just reminded me, but Dr. Drew's gonna come up.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh, fun cat.

[Adam Carolla]

Tim's coming up. But I made Dr. Drew commit to doing five minutes of stand up.

[Karen Feehan]

Let's go. He's funny. He kills on pods. He'll do great.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, he's not gonna. He's not. He's not. He's gonna. It's weird.

[Karen Feehan]

It's weird that he's gonna do it.

[Adam Carolla]

God, it's so funny because I love that area because we used to. Now that, you know, Jimmy's all over the news, all I do is I sit and I have these weird, like, flashbacks of all the weird cheap ass shit we used to do, you know? And they used to put us up at the Lowe's Hotel or whatever. There was a hotel that was on like 52nd in Lexington or something. They put us like a cheap. But it's big. Yeah, but they put it. And they had. This is in the 90s. They had the cable box and the cable box had the porn station. But if you put it on the porn station, it costs money, right? So we couldn't do that. But what we could do and what we figured out is that if you bring a universal remote and you set up the universal remote to click onto the porn stations and you took needle nose pliers and could take the coax cable out of the back of the box and plug it into another whatever, you could get porn. But we only had one universal remote.

[Karen Feehan]

You guys had to share. Watch it together.

[Adam Carolla]

No, I mean, we weren't above that. But what would happen was, is he. He'd come over and switch it to porn. Okay, that would be, you know, that would be, you know, Friday at 7pm Right? Then I would watch the porn beat off. And then I'd wanna watch SportsCenter. But then it was a weird thing because you can switch it to Sports center but you can't get back to porn.

[Karen Feehan]

Oh. So once you're out, you're out and.

[Adam Carolla]

You'Re like, yeah, but we're gonna go out tonight and have some drinks and then I'm gonna come home and I want porn. And it's like. So then you found yourself just 24, 7 porn running in your room. And it's only because we couldn't afford two universal remotes. But we would also bring the needle nose pliers and swap out the coax, which had that weird sheet metal jacket around it so you couldn't tamper with it. But if you brought, if you brought needle nose pliers.

[Karen Feehan]

That's so funny, your little toolkit to watch porn on the road. It's the forward thinking.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. For free. That's a crazy story, right?

[Karen Feehan]

It's good. Two buddies getting it done.

[Adam Carolla]

But we would stay, we'd always stay down there. And I was from North Hollywood. I'd never been to New York. And it was a big deal going.

[Karen Feehan]

To New York, the big city, the big Apple.

[Adam Carolla]

Going to New York and walking around and looking and going to the television Radio museum is where we would broadcast from on 52nd or 5th or something. Like right in there. And we'd walk there in the morning. It was like, like, God, we're like doing stuff. It was so weird. It was cool being out.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, that is cool.

[Adam Carolla]

I do. So Ronnie's is good?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. Oh, you're gonna love it. It's fun. It's fun there. You're right in the middle of everything too.

[Adam Carolla]

And it was the old Dangerfields, right?

[Karen Feehan]

Yep, yep. Cute little green room downstairs. I like it. I like that club. It's good.

[Adam Carolla]

So you're out here, you're just out here for the Comedy Store, doing pods and.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, I got that show, Karen Feen and her fun. Wednesday, October 8th at 8pm yeah, that'll be good. Please buy tickets to that show. They're moving, but they could be moving faster.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, there's a lot of comedians out there now.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. What, in New York are here everywhere. Yeah, I know. They're all over.

[Adam Carolla]

Everyone does stand up now.

[Karen Feehan]

They sure do here. I was just in Austin. Yeah, I think Austin, Chicago, New York are my top nla. My top four places to do comedy, if anybody's wondering.

[Adam Carolla]

I'm wondering. Do they? But see, then there's places like in Wisconsin and stuff where they appreciate you coming more.

[Karen Feehan]

That's true. Or like I did like a smaller gig in New Jersey like a month ago, and like, everybody was just on board with all like the wild shit I was saying that I can't say in New York, right? New York's, you know, it's still fairly liberal. There's my flyer.

[Adam Carolla]

New York is weird, right?

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah, you just get a weird. You, you get polar. If you, especially if you do polarizing material, you can get polarizing crowds that are like. I've had people, you know, get in fights with each other, like, you know, just during my 15 minute sets, and I'm like, can you guys chill? Because people are so adamant about their beliefs. More. More people on the left, like, they just dig their heels and they won't see any other way except their own, you know, way. So I don't know, I find that they tend to dig their heels in. But I was in like, kind of the, the boondocks of New Jersey. And those guys were. Those guys are fun. Those guys are great.

[Adam Carolla]

You know, what's not, you know, who's not? Well, the worst place I ever did, Santa Monica was worse. But Vegas is like weirdly uptight or something. In their own way, surprising. It's weird. I don't know. There's a joke that I tell and I told it over the weekend and the room, they just went silent, right? Like, they just go. Oh, yeah, they go silent. So there's this joke where it was the. It just. It was sort of spontaneous. It's the P. Diddy trial and how they have to have the courtroom sketch artist and they can't. I watched the OJ trial on tv and now I gotta see somebody, you know, who used to work at Knott's Berry Farm, draw whatever it is, and Then the camera will film that, and then I can watch it on tv. So, like, it's a weird society. It's the joke. And then I go, but what if we just got rid of cameras everywhere? Like, no more ring doorbell cameras. We just have somebody stand on the porch and just draw all the crime. And then I go. I pretend like I'm the ring doorbell artists. And then I go, oh, I'm out of brown again. I just bought a case of Brown Monday and I'm out in.

[Karen Feehan]

The place just goes silent. Yeah, it's. I'm sure there weren't even that many black people or brown people. No, it's even that white people love it. They're like, oh, no. They just love getting offended for other groups of people. Like, I'm like, how many black friends do you have? They're like, none. It's like, shut up.

[Adam Carolla]

Right?

[Karen Feehan]

I don't know. All my black friends are dominating. They're killing it. They don't need to be defended.

[Adam Carolla]

I agree. I feel like most women are crushing it. And all my black friends who won't talk to me anymore, crushing it too. So I don't know. And statistically, more women in college, more women working, more women. More women. More women. They're doing fine. The guys are committing suicide.

[Karen Feehan]

They are. They're sad. Why? Why are they so sad? Well, what is this male loneliness thing?

[Adam Carolla]

I'll tell you how life works, okay? There are things that you're sort of meant to do as a species, as a male, a female, in the animal kingdom. You know what I mean? And you brought up rough and tumble plus earlier. Okay? So guys are supposed to be out there scrapping with other guys.

[Karen Feehan]

My dad made my brother fight his bully in front of the whole neighborhood.

[Adam Carolla]

Really? I want to hear it.

[Karen Feehan]

It was like, par for the court. Like, it was like this kid, Jamie, had been picking on him for, like, two weeks. Like, messing with him on the bus, you know, just kind of, like, shoving him around. And my brother was, like, smaller than him. My dad's 6 1. He grew up in South Boston, and he was like, well, if he's gonna pick on you, just fight him. We're gonna fight him. My dad organized it.

[Adam Carolla]

Really.

[Karen Feehan]

I don't know if he told all the neigh, but they all showed up.

[Adam Carolla]

Really.

[Karen Feehan]

It was a big circle, and they just went at it. My dad was coaching my brother while he was fighting him. He was like, roll, Michael, roll.

[Adam Carolla]

Right?

[Karen Feehan]

And it was just like. I don't know. My dad didn't get in trouble for Child abuse.

[Adam Carolla]

Oh, yeah.

[Karen Feehan]

He would have been removed. Yeah. I mean, well, yeah. Imagine if somebody filmed that today, like dad. Cheers on, son.

[Adam Carolla]

Well, so, okay, let me tell you what happened to males.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

You know when they take the majestic orca and they put him down in marine land.

[Karen Feehan]

No, don't tell him.

[Adam Carolla]

And his dorsal fin starts to flop over. Cause he's fucking depressed. Cause he's meant to be in the open sea hunting. And he's swimming in a circle in a kiddie pool. And some lesbian is feeding him trout twice a day. And he's like, I'm supposed to be hunting in the open sea. And we took guys and we took all these institutions, and we just littered them with women. And the women don't see it that way. So then the guys would start wrestling on the schoolyard. And Mrs. Sontag would come out and go, no, no, no, no, no, no. You sit inside. We're going to do art. We're gonna sit. We're gonna journal inside. The guy's like, I'm going out of my mind.

[Karen Feehan]

Right?

[Adam Carolla]

That's what happened to the orc. Orcas have to travel in pods and fucking hunt seal. And once in a while, someone gets fucked up, but that's what they have to do. And we told guys to stop being guys. And so they started getting fat, and they started playing video games, and they started getting addicted to porn. And then the pharmaceutical companies came in and went, hey, fat guys addicted to everything. What's up? Here's some pills to take. And they should have been outside wrestling in the dirt.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

So we're to blame.

[Karen Feehan]

I know, but not me.

[Adam Carolla]

I said, y' all always. I always said, I'm not going along with this. I'm not apologizing for it. I'm not gonna roll this way.

[Karen Feehan]

I know. I feel. I mean, I do, like, obviously, like, as a woman, I feel for women, too. It's like you. Like, I grew up with, like, you know, very much like, the feminist. Like, you can do whatever you want. You can be whatever a guy can be. And, like, girls were, like, like, smarter than boys in school. And, like, they got better grades. And I went to, like, private school. So, you know, manners were a big deal. Like, So I. You know, I definitely saw, like, the slow kind of, like, castration of, like, the male ego, I suppose. And now, like, younger guys like me, and they, like, you know, hit on me, I guess, in their way. But, like, they don't know how to talk to women. Like, they're. They. It's really bizarre. Like, they're all. They send videos, they send memes.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah. They don't. They can't hunt anymore.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

Dawson, you will back me up because I've said since you and I have been working together, because one of the things they tried to do is they wanted to eliminate Pop Warner football and tackle football. They're like, no more tackle football until you're 16, or whatever it is. And Dawson's heard me say this. I'm like, don't do it. These kids are getting hurt. I said, dislocating your shoulder will heal. Being a pussy is a lifetime sentence.

[Karen Feehan]

For sure.

[Adam Carolla]

You will be a fucking pussy. And I got the shit kicked out of me playing football. But I'm not a pussy, and I use that much more than. The injuries slow me down. And I've said that for 20 something years.

[Mike Dawson]

You've at least said it for the 20 I've known you.

[Adam Carolla]

Right? So there you have it.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah.

[Adam Carolla]

And that's what we're dealing with. A bunch of fucking young pussies who are. It's blackfish. They're just swimming in a circle. The dorsal fin is flaccid and flopped over, and they're waiting for some bitch to feed them.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. And they're all, like, playing video games with each other. They, like, interface with, like, their little headsets.

[Adam Carolla]

They're trying to simulate hunting, Right.

[Karen Feehan]

But they're getting fat and dumb. And then you put an actual living, breathing female in front of them, and they don't know what to do with it. Yeah, her, Them.

[Adam Carolla]

What are your pronouns again?

[Karen Feehan]

They. Them.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, them. That's what's happening to dudes.

[Karen Feehan]

Yeah. I feel bad. I don't know. I feel like, what are women supposed to do, though? Because we still earn money. Well, the good news.

[Adam Carolla]

The good news is this. Half of them are gonna start going into the octagon and, like, rolling jiu jitsu every day. And then the other half are gonna start trying to shoot Charlie, Kirk and whoever else. That's basically where they're heading. And they're transing.

[Karen Feehan]

I try to do my part. I retweet Andrew Tate at least once a day. I fucking love him. The other day, he just tweeted out. He goes, words can't hurt your feelings. You're just a faggot.

[Adam Carolla]

The tweet that I think angered more dudes than any tweet I've ever sent out is. I wrote. I'll paraphrase. It was a few years ago, but I want more American males now wear bracelets than eat stew.

[Karen Feehan]

I know.

[Adam Carolla]

And everyone's like, what the fuck does that mean? You don't think I'm a dude? I got bracelets. I don't like stew. It's like I was like, oh, I touched a nerve.

[Karen Feehan]

Angry vegan.

[Adam Carolla]

Yeah, you should be eating stew and you shouldn't be making bracelets. All right, let me give you a plug. Karen again. October 8th, coming up here in the main room at the Comedy Store. You don't want to miss that. And only Phans is where you go. The podcast, right?
