1:02 Voiceover Loveline May Contain Fixually Oriented Content. Listener Discretion is Advised. This is Loveline.

1:20 Stryker Yeah!

1:20 Drew It is Loveline! Uh, I'm excited! I am not Adam. That's why I'm excited. Which means I'm not Harry. But I'm not a millionaire. I'm Stryker. With Drew. Doctor.

1:29 Stryker What is that voice? Who is that? What is that positivity? Where's the negativity?

1:33 Drew I just ate Baja Fresh at 930, right by the Beverly Center. I was eating it so fast. I was with my lady. She's like gobbling it down, the burrito. I'm like, I gotta get over to Loveline. So 930, I'm still sitting in there, ran to the car, sped here. The Killers are gonna be on tonight.

1:49 Stryker That is killer, right? For the rest of the country, fill them in on this band. You're in my history with the band, too.

1:55 Drew Yes. Okay, first off, The Killers, I think, are an amazing band. They're from Las Vegas. I don't know from from, but they're claiming they're from there.

2:03 Stryker They have Harkin from Las Vegas.

2:04 Drew Yeah, they have an unbelievable CD called Hot Fuss. The first single is called Somebody Told Me. Somebody told me you had a boyfriend, looked like a girlfriend, that I had a February of last year.

2:14 Stryker And that's a song that you played for the first time on KROQ here in Los Angeles. And I was sitting in the studio.

2:19 Drew And I said, Drew, you have to listen to this.

2:21 Stryker And he started singing.

2:23 Drew And not only was it catchy as hell, but then when I got the CD, which came out in the middle of June, this was way before June. But when the CD came out, I was like, these guys are legit. It's not just a one song thing. But you and I bonded over that song. And every time you came in the studio when I did my show in LA, I would play it for you.

2:39 Stryker Well, I don't know if you're playing for me or not. You certainly played it. And I seem to be playing every time I walked in the studio. And then there's another, the second single, Mr. Brightside. You like that?

2:47 Drew That could be the greatest song of 2004. Are they listening? Oh, and so the Killers are here, but they're not in the goddamn room.

2:53 Stryker Are they here?

2:53 Drew No, well, I don't know.

2:54 Stryker They're not here yet.

2:55 Drew Where are they?

2:55 Stryker I don't know, take calls.

2:56 Drew Brandon, where are you? Flowers, that's he's the lead singer.

3:00 Stryker I see him out of action.

3:01 Drew Hey, I know, that was gross, chipped head out there.

3:03 Stryker No, the door is.

3:04 Drew Oh, the door is opening? Hey, it's the Killers, that's Brandon Flowers. No, Ronnie. Oh, Ronnie, I'm sorry. You look like him, but I've seen you.

3:11 Stryker Ronnie, how are you?

3:12 Drew I saw you at the, see, I've already screwed it up.

3:15 Stryker We're actually live on the air here, so.

3:17 Drew Yeah, we're on.

3:18 Stryker Go ahead and make yourself at home.

3:19 Drew We have 50% of the band. I don't know if you just heard me yapping about you guys in the hallway. Did you hear it? Hold on, hold on, hold on, the mic's not on yet. Microphones. We on? Hello, Ronnie? Yes. All right, there you go. 50% of them, Drew, which is good. I don't wanna redo our whole spiel about it, but let's just say it was huge. I exposed you guys, the music that is, to Dr. Drew way before June 15th.

3:43 Stryker Yes, oh yeah.

3:44 Drew Which somebody told me.

3:45 Stryker He was, you brought it to Los Angeles.

3:47 Drew I don't know if I brought it, but I was like so high in it, you guys, like going crazy. Loving the single, the song in the pink single case that I had.

3:55 Oh yeah, that's from England. Really?

3:57 Drew Oh, was it really? How? My grandfather's Dutch. Oh. I don't know what that means. It's fast.

4:04 Adam Our guitar player's Dutch.

4:05 Drew Really?

4:06 Adam Yeah, Dave, the crazy Dutchman.

4:08 Drew So Drew, every time he would come in the studio before Loveline, because I'm on normally 6 to 10, I'm Stryker by the way, I'm not Adam Carolla, like I would play that for him, like Drew, you have to listen to these words, it's so good to listen to the music.

4:19 Adam Sing and dance around.

4:20 Drew Yeah, and then I was saying, and I'm gonna reiterate right to your face, when I got the CD just before June 15th, I was so excited for myself and you guys that it was so legit and so good.

4:31 Adam Thank you.

4:32 Drew It's like the lyrics are so good and the music behind it's so good, you guys.

4:37 Adam Thank you. You're welcome.

4:38 Stryker So, you know how this thing works, this show, Loveline? All right, good. We're gonna go right to phone, shall we? Anybody?

4:44 Drew Are you guys drunk? No. No, how was the sushi?

4:47 Adam It was great. I wish you guys were there.

4:49 Drew Yeah, me too. I was at Baja Fresh 30 minutes ago.

4:53 Adam Oh no.

4:54 Drew It was all right. I'll have to go to the bathroom in a minute. Rachel, you're 18? Yeah. What's going on? You're on with The Killers on Loveline.

5:03 Caller Um, all right. I'm 18 years old and I've been having sex for three years and I can't get an orgasm.

5:12 Drew How about when you're by yourself? Can you do it?

5:15 Caller No, I can't. And I've been with like girls and I've been with boys and I can't do it.

5:20 That's part of the problem.

5:22 Stryker Well, a couple things. First of all, women under 20 very frequently can't do that by themselves and often can't do it with a partner. Most will never have an orgasm with intercourse. It's only with some sort of direct stimulation.

5:36 Drew What if like you know how to work your equipment and you're in the union? Do you think you can get up and have one?

5:40 Stryker If you're union, per diem, whatever it is, things don't sort of come online until after 20 for many women. The biology doesn't sync up. And so it's really about finding an intimate relationship and kind of working it out. This business of finding lots of different people and having sex with them is not gonna work. It's not how it works.

5:59 Caller And by the way, I have a steady girlfriend right now.

6:02 Stryker Yeah, and by the way, you sort of reek of chaos. Were you sexually abused growing up? Is there a reason why you're all over the place?

6:10 Drew What do you mean six guys and six girls? A total of 12 at 18 years old. Is there something wrong with that? You guys from The Killers?

6:17 Stryker I'd say wrong. She's just all over the place. She's just chaos.

6:21 Drew It's a lot of girls by 18, right?

6:23 Adam Yeah.

6:23 Caller It's a new world we're living in.

6:25 Drew It's more than I had by 18.

6:27 Adam It sounds like you're confusing yourself.

6:29 Stryker Right. So, Rachel, what is exactly what? You want some sort of technical manual? That manual doesn't exist. Really doesn't.

6:37 Caller I was just wondering if it was like, if it was me or if it was normal. I don't know.

6:41 Stryker Well, did you hear anything I said?

6:43 Drew It's normal until you're about 20 and then all the orgasm shenanigans will sync up.

6:47 Stryker Yeah, it's just starting to be easier after around 2022. Are you on any medication?

6:51 Stryker Uh-uh.

6:53 Stryker Are you on birth control pills?

6:55 Stryker No.

6:56 Drew Thank God.

6:56 Stryker No need. She's with girls. I would, no abuse or abandonment or foster care or something in your life? Why does it seem so chaos, so much chaos?

7:06 Drew I think she's just excited. She's from Wyoming. There's nothing to do there except sleep with the girls.

7:11 Caller No, no, this is chaos.

7:12 Drew It is?

7:13 Stryker Why, Rachel, why?

7:15 Adam Why so many boys and girls, Rachel?

7:17 Stryker What's that about?

7:18 Oh, no, because I haven't found the right one, I guess.

7:22 Drew That makes sense, right?

7:23 Stryker No. It makes sense, but it's not the problem. But go ahead. All right, Rachel, don't stop worrying about the orgasm. Stay focused on finding a relationship.

7:31 Drew But back to the orgasm with the intercourse. So if a girl can have it with the intercourse, what's going on? Hello. If the girl can have it, see, now I'm, what's going on here? What are you guys doing? Oh my God, Drew is now, can you explain what just happened, anybody? How distracting was that?

7:50 Stryker Anne came in and started making signs to me, and it was that she needed the card to get out of the studio.

7:55 Drew Oh, Anne's worked here, I love Ms. Wingle, but she's worked here for like five years and doesn't have a card?

7:59 Stryker Five years. Regan, 15.

8:03 Drew Hello.

8:04 Stryker Yeah, you gotta speak into your telephone.

8:06 Adam She's speaking to her radio.

8:08 Stryker Are you on a speaker phone or something?

8:12 Drew All right, we'll get to the question, Regan.

8:18 Unacceptable. Unacceptable.

8:21 Stryker Very quick. All right, they can't hear it, so.

8:25 Drew Let her ask it. It's just one simple quick question.

8:27 Stryker Anderson said no. Technically, they can't hear it at all. We hear it, nobody else hears it.

8:32 There's thousands of people trying to call and we're gonna take that call?

8:34 Drew All right, thank you, Anderson. I'll ask it. Hey, she wants to know what's the inspiration behind a lot of your guys' songs on Hot Fuss?

8:45 Caller The inspiration behind our songs? We just write songs. Usually, you know, the lyrics are the last thing that come up, so we're more focused on the song and the melody to begin with.

8:56 Drew And who is most lyrically writing the songs, if that makes sense? Who's penning the songs?

9:02 Caller I am most lyrically writing the songs. Brandon. Yeah, I write the lyrics.

9:07 Drew And then when it comes to the music, is it collaboration between everybody? Group effort. Including you, because you play a couple instruments, right Brandon?

9:15 Caller I play keyboard, piano, stuff.

9:19 Drew Now how about, you guys use a keyboard, you can hear it in the songs, you gotta drag it around every place you go. What kind of bands did you guys listen to growing up, or why a keyboard? I mean it sounds really, you have such good, as noise is the right word, in your songs, from so many different types of instruments.

9:37 Caller I just, we all listen to a lot of the same stuff, it just happens to be what I play. I would like to play the guitar, but it's easier for me, because I took piano lessons when I was a kid. But I do, you know, we love Depeche Mode and The Cure, and a lot of keyboard stuff in there. Blur, everybody uses them, so.

9:55 Stryker Sharon? 18? Hey, by the way, let me set the show. This is Loveline, that's Stryker, out for Adam, his ship is fishing in La Paz.

10:04 Caller What?

10:04 Stryker The phone number here is 1-800-LOVE-191.

10:09 Drew There you go. It's all reset, The Killers are here, you're Drew, I'm Ted Stryker, we're going.

10:13 Stryker Excellent.

10:14 Drew Good.

10:15 Stryker Sharon, this is where you talk now.

10:19 Caller Okay, well, like-

10:22 Drew Drew, forget it, I can't take that call.

10:25 Stryker That's so annoying.

10:26 Drew Sharon, come back, we'll come back to you, be prepared, okay? Thank you. Tim, we're going to Tim, be ready or else. We can't have that. Damn, I gotta get in a role here. What's going on, Tim? Yeah.

10:38 Caller Hey, Dr. Drew, I wish Adam was here. Love you guys so, Dr. Drew, I saw you on MSNBC, talking about that gay marriage stuff, awesome, man. And can I ask you a personal question? Are you an atheist, also, like Adam?

10:50 Stryker No, no, I'm not as vehement as he is.

10:55 Caller Good for you, man. I'm almost wishing I would have come. Chuck, you're all right, but you're definitely no Adam. You're all right, though, yeah.

11:02 Drew Okay, Tim, hold on, we're gonna put you on hold and take the next call. Go to number five right there. Adam, you're 26, what's going on?

11:09 Caller Hey, how you guys doing?

11:10 Caller Good.

11:11 Caller Hey, I just want to say what's up to Dr. Drew. I've been a listener for a long time and listen to Since the Days of Poor Man. Who?

11:17 Caller A long time ago.

11:18 Caller A long time ago. And I want to say what's up to Killers. You guys are the bomb, dude. I love all your music, it's awesome. And I just wanted to ask you guys, how long you guys been playing together?

11:31 Adam About two years.

11:33 Caller Two years, and you guys have this kind of cohesive, good music after just two years, dude, that's awesome.

11:37 Adam Yeah, we're-

11:38 Caller You guys have really good music.

11:39 Adam We're very hard workers, thank you.

11:41 Drew That is pretty amazing. Were you in separate bands before The Killers? Or were you guys together, always in a band together? Was it always The Killers?

11:49 Adam It was always The Killers.

11:50 Caller Right.

11:51 Adam We'd all done stuff.

11:52 Stryker Where'd you guys grow up?

11:53 Adam Las Vegas.

11:54 Stryker So everybody actually, for sure, from Las Vegas.

11:56 Caller All right.

11:57 Caller I like Vegas. Dave was from Iowa. The other three of us grew up in Las Vegas.

12:01 Drew What high school did you guys go to out there?

12:03 Caller I went to Chaparral.

12:04 Drew Yeah.

12:05 Adam I went to Clark and graduated from Western High School.

12:09 Drew God, Vegas. I know you growing up there, you're probably, do you still do the same ridiculous stuff that you don't live there or is it more when you go back because you're not there all the time?

12:19 Adam I think when we go back, it's home time. Right. It's time to get back to sleeping in your bed and using your facilities.

12:27 Drew The facilities, exactly.

12:29 Stryker Here's Andy, 23. Andy.

12:30 Drew What's up, Andy?

12:33 Stryker Hi, Andy. What's going on?

12:37 Stryker My question is, why is it I don't like orgasms?

12:40 Stryker Why what?

12:41 Stryker I don't like orgasms.

12:42 Stryker You don't like them?

12:43 Stryker Like I have them, but I don't enjoy them.

12:47 Stryker What's the matter?

12:48 Stryker Does that make sense?

12:49 Stryker Are they not satisfying or?

12:52 Stryker They're like, they're more of a distraction, I think. Like, I feel like...

12:57 Caller Do you like the act?

12:59 They're not really, like, I don't know.

13:01 Stryker Like, I don't wanna be, like, I feel kind of like, I take on the guy's role in that, after the orgasm, I'm kind of done, and...

13:08 Drew Of course you're done. You're worn out, the juices have flown, it's getting a little dry down there, your brain is bent, and your body. You should be done, right?

13:17 Stryker They don't sound like a distraction.

13:18 Stryker I guess so, but I don't, like, want them, and I feel like people make me think I should want them.

13:22 Stryker What do you want? Wait a minute, wait, well, I'm very confused. You said on one hand, you act like a guy and are driven to orgasm, and then are completely done afterwards.

13:31 Stryker I'm driven to orgasm, like, when I do orgasm, I'm not happy with the fact that I don't want to go anymore. Or like, my boyfriend will still want to go?

13:40 Stryker Is this with the same guy? Oh, this isn't, you're kind of not matching up, you and he. You gotta work things out.

13:48 Drew But isn't it normal after an orgasm with the girl from at least, you know, I've only been with one girl. Hold on one second, hold on, Andy, one sec. I was with the girl in June of 92. You had one girl, yeah. And after she orgasmed, she was done. Aren't girls mostly done after they?

14:01 Stryker Yes, but the problem is that her boyfriend, this is the opposite of what we normally deal with, which is she's done before the guy. And so, and she's like thinking like, oh my god, this is ruining the experience for him. Therefore, I can't have a distraction like an orgasm intervening here. Which is unfortunate, and this is a function, not of you and your body, this is you and the relationship not working right.

14:24 Drew But he's feeling so good that he's making you orgasm very fast, I'm sure.

14:27 Stryker But maybe not, maybe he's one of these guys that's focused on his orgasm only, making her feel bad for being done, and now you got a problem.

14:34 Drew Now which guy are you in that department, Dr. Drew? Are you focused on yourself or are you focused on your partner?

14:39 Stryker I have a pathology in general of being too focused on other people.

14:43 Drew Really?

14:44 Stryker To translate this to everything.

14:45 Drew Have you ever just stopped the whole operation and said, don't worry about me, I'm done for the night, even though you haven't reached that point?

14:50 Stryker Well, that's something that men are not capable of saying. Not to the about 75 or something.

14:55 Drew I've said it, but I don't mean it.

14:57 Stryker You haven't even said it.

14:58 Drew I've said it?

14:59 Stryker Yeah.

14:59 Drew I said it when I was at dinner like an hour ago.

15:01 Stryker Yeah, you were done eating.

15:02 Drew Under the table. All right, let's go to Christina, 17, you're on Loveline. The Killers are here.

15:07 Caller Hi, there's this place on my house. Hello?

15:12 Stryker Yep.

15:13 Caller There's this place on my house and it's called Gravity Hill and it's like in the middle of a cemetery and I really like to go up there and have sex in my car in the middle of the cemetery.

15:23 Drew With a partner?

15:24 Caller Yeah, I can't come unless, yeah.

15:27 Stryker You can't have an orgasm unless you're in the cemetery.

15:30 Caller Yeah.

15:31 Drew Yes.

15:31 Stryker How long has this been going on for?

15:32 Caller Like since I lost my virginity like a year and a half ago.

15:37 Stryker Same guy? Did you lose your virginity there?

15:45 Drew Isn't that where most girls like, you know, they dream of losing their virginity. When I lose my virginity, we can either go to the Four Seasons Hotel after prom or the Palms Hotel in Vegas or we can go to the cemetery.

15:58 Stryker Most will specify mausoleum. But anyway.

16:00 Caller Well a lot of us come up here and like get drunk and stuff all the time.

16:03 Stryker Are you loaded when you're up there every time?

16:08 Caller Not every time but it's like, you know, it's like a hangout sometimes or sometimes we can go to be alone, nobody really goes up there.

16:14 Stryker Alright so it's not about it being a cemetery. It's a comfortable place, a safe place, and a place you also use drugs and alcohol. Those are the features of that place other than it being a cemetery. It's more about that, isn't it?

16:28 Caller I guess, I don't know. I just found that no matter what I do, unless I'm in the cemetery, I can't have an orgasm.

16:36 Drew That's good that you're having orgasm not only at 17 but in the car which is a tough place to even, I have a tough place having one in there.

16:42 Stryker Well, don't take things too far. But yeah, that's right.

16:47 Drew It's hard in the car, literally.

16:50 Stryker Yeah, absolutely, but I think she needs to find a similar place that's not a cemetery. Like the morgue would be good.

16:58 Caller Like a bedroom.

17:00 Stryker Yeah, she's 17, so it's kinda hard to pull that off too. But somewhere.

17:04 Caller Put on a scary movie in the bedroom or something.

17:07 Drew How about a drive-in?

17:10 Stryker That's a good question. Where are kids doing this these days?

17:13 Drew You mean if they can't do it at home?

17:14 Stryker Well, I don't know how many of them have rooms set aside by their parents for this activity but I imagine there aren't many.

17:20 Drew Right.

17:20 Stryker Here's Chris who's 19. Chris?

17:24 Yes.

17:25 Stryker Yes, Chris. What's going on?

17:27 Not much. I've got a question for you. My girlfriend, she won't let me go down on her at all because she says that it smells bad down there or whatnot even after she takes a shower.

17:42 Stryker The Killers have something to say about this, right?

17:45 Drew Hold on one sec.

17:46 Stryker Hold on.

17:47 Drew Ronnie?

17:48 Caller Well, how does she know?

17:49 How does she know what?

17:51 Caller How does she know that it smells terrible?

17:54 I guess when she masturbates, she can smell it. Like it has a stench or whatnot.

18:00 Drew Have you smelled the stench?

18:02 Caller She won't let me.

18:02 I have. After like we have sex, yeah, I can smell it. I guess just the smell of sex or whatnot.

18:08 Stryker Yeah, it's just her smell. It's not anything unusual, right?

18:11 Yeah. But like she says it smells bad even after she takes a shower.

18:14 Stryker Yeah, but you keep saying that. Yeah, it immediately makes us think bogus when you reiterate the same statement.

18:20 Drew No, no, no, he's just saying that she likes to get clean.

18:23 Stryker That's fine. The deal is, yes, it's hard to say based on what you sort of information you're providing for us. Could be an infection, could be a chronic bacterial overgrowth of some type. She could see a doctor about it and then give her some cream and try to sort of clear out the bacteria quite literally. But it sounds more like this is just her smell and some people have unique smells and unfortunately she feels very self-conscious about herself and you have to really make more of that. Making her feel comfortable with her body. Yeah. Think about it again, the difference between men and women. There's not a guy on earth, no matter what it smelled like, you know what I mean, would turn that kind of thing down. Of course not.

19:00 Drew Girls are very, one thing I've experienced, you would tell a girl not to go there? Maybe after a show.

19:07 Adam It's a respect thing, you know. Yeah. Maybe if it's not fresh, don't come a-knockin.

19:14 Drew Depends where they are down there though, really. Some places can be worse than others.

19:19 Adam True.

19:21 Drew That's true.

19:22 Stryker I'm trying to follow you.

19:24 Drew You had a pink shirt on right at Winnie Roast this year, Brandon.

19:28 Caller Probably.

19:28 Drew I don't know why I'm talking about your wardrobe, but I just had a flashback of it all of a sudden.

19:31 Caller I think I did, yeah I did.

19:33 Caller I like that shirt.

19:34 Drew Hey, how were your shows last night, by the way, at the Troubadour?

19:37 Caller Two nights ago at the Troubadour. We played two in a row and I didn't think we could do it, but we did it.

19:44 Drew I heard you guys were on fire as my friend Aaron emailed me today. It was really, really, really good.

19:49 Caller The second one was even, it was just a lot of fun. It was more jumped up than the first.

19:54 Drew What did you guys think of Winnie Roast this year? I believe you were first up. I saw your whole set out there, by the way. It was still somewhat crowded, but did you guys feel good doing it?

20:02 Adam Yeah, it felt good.

20:03 Drew Nice.

20:03 Adam It was really hot. We were just talking about that today. It was a cool place to play.

20:07 Drew Great venue. You guys are gonna play Inland Invasion 4, which we'll talk about in a few minutes, with an unbelievable lineup.

20:13 Stryker These are all, just for the rest of the country, these are concerts here locally in Los Angeles that the mothership KROQ puts on.

20:19 Drew But the Inland Invasion, people, they're still tickets, it's a big venue. After I read the lineup, people like in San Diego are within five hours. They may want to come to this thing. It's crazy good.

20:27 Stryker April, 23. What's going on?

20:31 Hi.

20:34 Stryker We're here listening. We're all ears.

20:35 Caller I was just saying that I had a knack for getting into bad relationships.

20:45 That's it?

20:47 Caller I've never had good luck with guys.

20:49 Caller What do they do?

20:52 Caller I've always, like all my boyfriends have cheated on me.

20:57 Stryker How many boyfriends have there been that have done that?

21:01 What's that?

21:01 Stryker How many boyfriends have done that?

21:05 Stryker Probably about eight.

21:08 Stryker Eight boyfriends have cheated.

21:09 Drew And how do you know they've all cheated? How have you caught them off? That's an unbelievable record that you've caught eight boyfriends in a row cheating on you.

21:15 Caller Well, half the time they tell me that sometimes I've caught a few of them.

21:20 Stryker I have an interesting question. If they don't cheat on you, do you cheat on them?

21:24 Caller No, I don't.

21:25 Stryker Never?

21:26 Caller No.

21:27 Stryker You never cheat?

21:29 Caller I think it might be that I'm too good to them, I guess. They take advantage of it. I don't know.

21:34 Stryker No, it's who you pick. It's not as if all guys are cheaters. Cheaters are cheaters, and that's a particular kind of guy. And it means that you pick guys that are unavailable and aren't interested in a real relationship. Kind of goofing around. That's what you have to examine for yourself. Why is that so attractive to you? Was your dad gone all the time when you were growing up, or was he?

21:54 Caller I've never known my dad.

21:57 Stryker All right, well that's, there you are. So you pick the guy that's never there, the boyfriend, that's gone all the time too. So it's just a reenactment. The crazy thing about the human being is that the things that are the most painful in childhood become the sources of attraction in young adulthood. In fact, I was reading Dante's Inferno, one of the things. And in this damn poem, he talks about, he's looking at these people come across a river, like the river sticks to hell, and he asks for it, he goes, why are these people coming? They don't seem to resist. He goes, oh, it's because terror is converted into attraction in hell.

22:29 Drew That was just like that.

22:30 Stryker Just like that.

22:30 Drew Right there. All right, we gotta take a break here on Loveline. That's Dr. Drew, I'm Stryker filling in for Adam. The Killers are here. We're gonna play a song from Hot Fuss in just a few minutes, and we'll tell you where they're gonna be on the road, and find out about some Vegas stories when they stayed up at Dre's till 11 in the morning on some water substance or something like that. All right, more Loveline after this.

22:53 So get your problems ready, ready, ready.

22:58 Loveline is brought to you by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

23:01 Stryker Law enforcement is cracking door.

23:16 Stryker Hey there, it's Loveline, I'm Dr. Drew. The phone number here is 1-800-LOV-191. Filling in for Mr. Corolla. I'm trying to think of strong enough words to describe my delight and happiness in having you here.

23:28 Drew Thank you, Dr. Drew.

23:30 Stryker I'll give you a hug. Absolutely. Yeah, he may or may not, but I'm overlooking that, I'm wearing condoms. And in the studio tonight is The Killers.

23:40 Drew Yeah, 50% of them from Las Vegas. And I say this honest to God truth, I drove to Palm Springs on Friday after my show, listened to it through like three or four times. Not for my first three or four, but I listen to it all the time. The gospel song, I think it's number five. I don't know if it's gospel, but all things, all these things that I've done. I love that song, by the way. We're probably not gonna play it on Loveline tonight. We're gonna have to play that somebody told me thing and Mr. Brightside, but just for the record, if there's a third single, the idiot in LA likes that one. And I love Smells Like You Mean It, too.

24:14 Caller That is such a good song.

24:16 Stryker Why don't you guys bring that up?

24:17 Drew Smile like you mean it. See, I'm asking for a call. No, but I promise, I swear to God, you guys, I just screwed that up. You really know. No, I swear, I can sing the words to it. If you played it right now, I could sing it. Go, on air. Right now, go. No, if you played it, I could sing it. I love, and the first song, I swear, I'm not lying. We can call someone that was in the car with me. I'm so stupid right now. I'm quitting.

24:36 Stryker We had that smell call. Maybe you're still thinking about that.

24:38 Drew I know it's on the brain. You mean it.

24:40 Stryker Anyway, here we go.

24:41 Drew I've already worked four hours on the radio before this tonight. My brain is screwed up. All right, let's play Somebody Told Me. If your radio station doesn't play this song, scream at them. It's a good song, good lyrics. And here you go, The Killers, Somebody Told Me on Loveline. Hit a press. The killer is that is called somebody told It's Loveline, they are here at Loveline. I'm Stryker with Dr. Drew. You guys have been on tour non-stop. You guys broke first, not in the States.

28:18 Adam That's true.

28:20 Drew We were just talking about that off the radio. You had a deal in England?

28:24 Adam Yeah, we did a small deal in England first, and got to tour over there first, and then America finally caught on.

28:35 Drew Gravitated to you guys. Got the label deal here, and it's going really well for them. They're gonna be playing a show called the Miller Lite Inland Invasion 4, Flashback to the Future, it's September 18th. It's The Killers, and check out this lineup, and then I wanna ask you guys who you're probably most excited to see. Morrissey, Susie in the Banshees, Tears for Fears, Billy Idol, Franz Ferdinand, Devo, Stone Roses, X, Muse, Flocka Seagulls, Death Cab for Cutie, Missing Persons, and The Walkman. All one day, any of those bands you dig crazy?

29:07 Caller Oh, I mean almost all of them. We're into a lot of that stuff.

29:13 Adam I know we're playing with Tears for Fears.

29:15 Caller Yeah. I'm excited to see Tears for Fears.

29:18 Adam Billy Idol.

29:20 Caller Yeah, you just did the movie. Eyes Without a Face is.

29:25 Caller There's no humor in this.

29:27 Adam Yeah, it's a good song.

29:28 Drew All right, let's take some calls here. Where are you going, Drew? Rachel, you're 24 and Loveline.

29:34 Caller Yes, hi. The other night, I tried giving my boyfriend a rim job and he didn't really get that excited and I'm just wondering if I was doing it wrong or if it was something with him.

29:49 Drew Did he use the counter-clockwise swirl or did he go normal clockwise with it?

29:53 Caller Well, I tried a bunch of different things and worked up and down the scrotum too, but I started around his anus.

30:05 Stryker Rachel, I'm sure, and I recognize the accent, she went to finishing school in Geneva, I'm sure of it. Sure.

30:12 Drew You think she's acting? You think it's a bonus? No, I don't. No, no. Rachel, you said you tried giving it, how many do you give it often to your boyfriends?

30:21 Caller No, I've never done it before, so I was just wondering, like, what's the best way to do it?

30:26 Stryker I think first it would be good to check to see if a guy's into it, because I bet a lot of guys are not into that.

30:32 Drew How lightly were you licking the area? That's the important, was it light or was it force licking?

30:38 Caller I don't know, it was kind of like, I started to use different pressures, you know? Because when he wasn't really into it, I tried a couple different things, so.

30:47 Stryker Well, you know how it is when somebody's not into something, you start working harder at it, it just makes it worse.

30:53 Drew And more uncomfortable for the person that doesn't like it at the same time.

30:55 Stryker Yeah, I think you got a guy that's just not into that, that's my bet. And you oughta ask him.

30:58 Drew Is he into the normal oral sex that you performed?

31:01 Caller Yeah, definitely, yeah.

31:03 Drew Well, he's just probably not into the rim job. It wasn't the way you did it, I'm sure.

31:08 Stryker I'm just cringing a little bit at the detail that you got into there, Stryker, so.

31:12 Drew What?

31:13 Stryker Well, you sound like you have some expertise in this area.

31:15 Drew At the receiving end, have you?

31:17 Stryker So, maybe you ought to just give her a little advice. I've never really known anyone that had any degree of expertise in this topic, but I'm delighted tonight we have you here, so go ahead.

31:27 Adam It's your first time, right? You haven't done this a lot. You have not done this a lot, right?

31:33 Caller No, I haven't. So, it could be something that I'm doing wrong.

31:36 Adam Give it time, sweetheart.

31:38 Stryker Go ahead, Stryker. I'm all ears, I am.

31:41 Drew First off, my family lives here in LA.

31:44 Stryker Yeah, and they do not have a son. I do not have a son!

31:47 Drew Grandma's listening. Drew, seriously? Fine. The best thing to do... Just... Oh my God. A light, very light, licking, obviously, motion. Keep the fingers away. Just glide over it. Don't insert it. And maybe long, soft strokes.

32:13 Adam Okay, keep going.

32:14 Drew And how many minutes until you get to LA?

32:19 Stryker Let's just take that in for a second. Well done, Striker.

32:23 Caller Let me tell you, one time, at Band Camp, all right, all right.

32:28 Adam Taking Striker out for dinner later.

32:31 Drew Howie is getting some cocktails, isn't he?

32:35 Stryker Here we go. Drew, you're killing me there. Sarah is 27. Hey, Sarah.

32:43 Stryker One of the, a guy that I'm dating right now, when we have sex, I don't like feel anything. I don't, it's not like he's small or anything. I just, for some reason, don't think he like gets that hard. Is there anything I can do to make it feel better? Cause it's just like, it doesn't do anything.

32:58 Stryker And then you've never had, and this is not the first guy you've been with?

33:02 Stryker No, it's not. I've been with a lot, you know, multiple different people and I've never thought that this could be a problem and I've come to talk to my friends about it and they're like, I don't know. Like, they don't get it either.

33:14 Caller You should be able to tell if it's, how hard it is if you've been with other people.

33:17 Stryker I mean, can't you feel with your hand to see what's going on there?

33:21 Stryker No, I mean, it's just weird because it's like, he get hard, but it's not like that much. Like, anytime it's like, I guess it's just not like super hard and I wanna have sex, like I just don't feel it, you know?

33:35 Stryker So, he's not getting an erection, full erection? That makes sense. And is he on medication, do you know?

33:42 Stryker No, I don't know, I don't think so.

33:44 Stryker Does he have a pulse? I think that would be the right thing to ask, is meds or doing drugs or something like that, because that can impair erection. If he really is having some problem with erectile function, I mean, that's what the drugs like Viagra are made. Is she laughing? No. The drugs like Viagra are made for. So, you need some more investigation. And by the way, how old is he?

34:07 Stryker 28, 29.

34:08 Stryker A 28 year old who can't achieve an erection. I would get a neurological workup, a medical workup, because I'd be really concerned about that before anything else.

34:17 Drew Hold on, go ahead. Brandon, Brandon. Hold on, Sarah.

34:20 Stryker Brandon, Brandon's hand up.

34:21 Caller I'm not a rocket scientist. But if it's not hard, how is it even going? How are we getting it in?

34:29 Stryker It's not fully.

34:30 Stryker It is, but it feels like it's hard, but kind of like, it sounds funny, like soft on the outside.

34:35 Stryker Yeah, it's not fully erected.

34:38 Stryker Yeah, I mean, yeah, and so, I don't know, I mean, everything else is good.

34:43 Stryker He has no medical problems? No medical problems?

34:45 Stryker Not that I mean, not really.

34:47 Stryker He's not diabetic, no diabetes, no. Is he drinking?

34:52 Stryker Not more than anybody else, I know.

34:54 Drew What about when you're on top of him, Sarah? Does it feel good at all for you? Because maybe sometimes you can just work it, even though he's not fully hard, where he's like his pelvis, his like bone deep down is like pushing on your good spot. Does that work for you? Have you tried that?

35:07 Stryker I've tried everything and it's just kind of like, it's just weird because like everything else is good, but then I just kind of like try to avoid like having sex because it just doesn't do anything for me. And like I've kind of tried to talk about some stuff, but it's like, I think he's shy and try to like see if we can talk about it a little more. And I don't know if like he even realizes that it's even maybe a problem. That's one thing.

35:30 Stryker You gotta always take this kind of thing from the standpoint of your concern for his health and say, look, this is not something that seems normal to me. I'm worried about you medically. Let's get this looked into and get it looked into.

35:40 Drew Why are you staying with him if he's not performing sexually to your expectations? I know. Well, I'm sure. I mean, if you don't do it right, if you're unsatisfied, how are you gonna maintain a lengthy relationship with that person, Sarah?

35:54 Stryker I know that's, I mean, that's one of my questions. I mean, I am looking at it, you know, he's a great guy and I like everything about him, but like just one thing. And I'm just kind of like, don't want to be that shallow to be like, oh, well, you know, the sex isn't good. But at the same time, it's like.

36:09 Stryker Stryker, she wouldn't be that shallow.

36:10 Drew That's a big matzah ball though, isn't it?

36:12 Stryker But it's, I mean, well, I know you're talking about, like I've been with someone that had been really good and then all of a sudden you're like, oh, this kind of sucks. Like, you know, it's, it's kind of not fair. Like you kind of trying to find someone that has everything like the whole package, you know, it's kind of hard to find someone that you, you know, has every quality you want. So you're kind of like wondering, you know, you know.

36:33 Stryker This is the truth.

36:34 Stryker This is the question. When you're overanalyzing everything.

36:35 Drew Well, just bring it up to him and say, what are you doing that it's not getting hard and go from there.

36:41 Stryker If you're, if you're really thinking about staying with this guy, you've got to, you've got to bring this up and solve the problem. Was it before?

36:48 Caller Was he harder before? He just never was.

36:51 Drew Never was. Never was, yeah.

36:53 Adam He's always been a softie.

36:54 Stryker I think you've got to get the medical evaluation. That's your first and foremost priority. John19. John.

37:01 Adam Hello, John.

37:02 Stryker Caller who goes by John, yeah, there you are. Yeah.

37:06 Caller Hi, I was circumcised after I was born. And since I started having sex, I've been having trouble maintaining an erection and achieving orgasm.

37:16 Stryker Hang on, hold on. You were circumcised after you were born? Not before you were born?

37:22 Caller Funny.

37:23 Caller Funny.

37:23 Stryker What do you mean after you were born?

37:25 Caller Give him a break, John.

37:26 Drew I mean, John.

37:27 Caller I know that was kind of stupid, sorry.

37:29 Stryker What does that mean? What does that mean after I was born? I mean, you were circumcised like everybody else.

37:33 Drew Quit busting his balls, Dr. Drew, you didn't mean it.

37:36 Stryker What does he mean?

37:36 Drew I screwed up a minute ago with the song and he knows the same thing.

37:39 Stryker Watch out, you're gonna be under my radar screen pretty soon.

37:42 Drew God, just because you're a doctor and went to school for nine years doesn't mean you can insult me.

37:46 Caller He means in the hospital.

37:47 Stryker So what happened, John?

37:51 Caller Well, I mean, I was just wondering if maybe being circumcised could have lowered the sensitivity and made it harder to have an erection and an orgasm.

38:01 Stryker Absolutely not.

38:02 Drew It increases the sensitivity.

38:04 Stryker That would mean everybody would have a problem. No, that's not a cause of any significant problem that way. What's your problem? John. Stop thinking about it. You're 19. Tell us what the problem is.

38:16 Caller Pretty much like I have trouble having an orgasm a lot of the time.

38:19 Stryker A lot of the time.

38:21 Caller Yeah.

38:21 Stryker Is that just when you wear a condom or?

38:23 Caller Well, especially when I wear a condom. I've only had a few orgasms with the condom, but I've been with my girlfriend.

38:32 Stryker How about when you masturbate?

38:34 Caller No, never any problem when I'm by myself.

38:36 Stryker How long does it take you when you're by yourself?

38:38 Caller Two minutes. Anywhere from like a couple minutes to close your heart.

38:44 Stryker You're fine. Look, you do not have any problem with orgasmic function. You have a problem being comfortable and feeling intimate, being sexual in a relationship. That's what this is all about. You're 19, you got some time to work that out. You got to find-

38:56 Drew Stop masturbating so much when you're not with your girl, and then you for sure will come when you wear a condom.

39:01 Stryker That's absolutely a good advice. Also, you need that relationship. We kind of work things out when you're still 19. You got to get a long-term relationship where you kind of work all this stuff out. Start feeling comfortable. We got to take a break. We do?

39:11 Drew All right. The Killers are here. We're going to play some more music from them pretty soon. The song Mr. Brightside, which is really good. See, I got it right right there. Talk about the tour and everything. If you have questions for the guys, it's 1-800-LOVE-191. And more Loveline after this.

39:29 Caller 1-800-LOVE-191.

39:46 Drew We are back here on Loveline. I'm Stryker, Dr. Drew, 1-800-LOVE-191. I'm filling in for Adam. He's out Fiashing, going from Marlin and Tuna somewhere, and The Killers are here, Brandon and Ronnie. You guys are from Vegas. You're playing Inland Invasion on September 18th out there in San Bernardino. What about your own tour after tonight? You finally have a day off. I don't know, is today considered a day off, even though you're in here? And what do you do tomorrow? Where do you go on your new bus?

40:14 Caller San Francisco.

40:16 Adam Tomorrow we play San Francisco, the Great American Music Hall.

40:19 Drew Nice. And who are you guys? Drew, can't you wait to commercial for that?

40:24 Stryker Adam, is that you?

40:27 Drew You're having him sign autographs.

40:28 Stryker We can do stuff.

40:29 Caller We're like robots.

40:30 Drew We can multitask here, dude. And then how long are you gonna be on the tour you're on now before you start this MTV2 thing, the $2 bill tour?

40:39 Adam Man, this whole tour I heard was 14 weeks.

40:42 Drew Okay. And how much do you guys like the road? Is it what it's cracked up to be?

40:48 Adam We just, you know, before we were in a 15 passenger van.

40:52 Drew Right.

40:53 Adam And, you know, most of it was pretty good, but you got to be miserable after a while. You know, sleep is very important when you're traveling and, you know, entering different time zones and trying to give 100% every night, so. I guess what I'm trying to say is being on the bus and having a place to spread out in Lounge and maybe think a little is really change things.

41:16 Caller The option just to go to sleep right after you're finished.

41:19 Caller Mm-hmm.

41:19 Adam Or change clothes.

41:21 Caller That was right there.

41:22 Drew What about when playing in Vegas as a baby band before you were signed? Is it hard to get a following there in Vegas? Or is it easy to get a buzz out for a band?

41:32 Caller It's rough. There's not a lot of places to play.

41:35 Drew Right, that's what I was thinking.

41:36 Caller There's two or something like that. I mean, literally, it's...

41:40 Stryker What are the two? I'm curious.

41:42 Caller Well, we played a lot at this place called The Junkyard. And another place called The Rock, which closed down because someone was murdered. Nice. And...

41:52 Stryker Very Vegas.

41:53 Caller We played at this transvestite club, turned to an indie club on Sunday nights. And our friend set that all up and we would play there once a month.

42:05 Stryker Transvestite attorney.

42:06 Caller It was called Tramps. Nice.

42:08 Drew That's a good name.

42:09 Caller And that was where we really kind of, when we started getting a little bit more popularity, that was where we played.

42:16 Drew And did you sell your own CDs at these clubs that you guys had burned in Vegas? And did...

42:21 Adam I think at the time we were just giving away like demos, little garage recordings.

42:27 Drew Damn, what a great story. Then they went to London, then they signed out there, and then the big deal here.

42:32 Stryker How'd you guys get together? Cause you all went to different high schools and stuff, right?

42:35 Adam Yeah.

42:37 Caller We met through an ad at the beginning, in a paper, in a weekly.

42:40 Drew Like male searching women or?

42:42 Caller No, like, you know, in these weekly papers that they give away, you can, you know, there's always a musician section at the back, and people will put, you know, looking for a guitar player.

42:52 Stryker Who put the ad?

42:54 Caller Dave Cooning, our guitar player, was not here. He just put, you know, I love Oasis, and U2 and the Beatles, and Smashing Pumpkins, and things like that, and put, you know, he's just looking for anybody to start a band with.

43:07 Stryker Interesting.

43:08 Caller Yeah.

43:08 Stryker That's it. All right, here we go. Danielle, 20.

43:13 I had a question about, I guess, my sex drive. I've been married for two years, and me and my husband were trying to get pregnant. And during that time, I was like, well, I guess I was overzealous. I would just have sex with him like every day if he would have sex with me.

43:37 Stryker You know, there's an interesting thing that no one ever talks about, and there's finally been a book put out, called Maternal Desire, Women's Erotization of the Desire to Have a Baby, that went, that it's an erotic impulse. It's an erotic impulse for women sometimes to want to try to make a baby. For men, it's the opposite. They want to avoid that. But-

43:58 Drew So you said the girl gets hornier and friskier when she's in baby-making mode and wants something inside there.

44:03 Stryker That has now been documented. Really? So that might have been part of what was driving it.

44:08 Yeah, but then we found out that we couldn't have kids. And there was like a period that like, for like six to eight weeks that we didn't have sex.

44:15 Stryker Oh boy, no.

44:15 That he couldn't touch me, or I was just like, no, don't touch me, don't touch me.

44:20 Stryker What was the problem with the fertility?

44:24 I don't ovulate.

44:25 Stryker How come? You have polycystic ovarian disease or something?

44:28 No, they actually don't exactly know.

44:34 Stryker You don't ovulate at all?

44:35 Caller Uh-uh.

44:37 They put me on drugs to try and make me ovulate, and I still didn't.

44:41 Stryker Did you go to a fertility clinic?

44:43 Yeah, I went to a, oh God.

44:47 I'm trying to think of the name of the doctor, what they called him, like I can't remember the long name.

44:52 Stryker But more than just a general obstetrician, you went to a fertility specialist.

44:56 Yeah, he was, yeah.

44:59 Drew And now you have no drive for him. How long has it been since you found out you can't have kids and you lost the drive?

45:05 Well, it's been, well, probably six to eight months, but I mean, we're still having sex, but it's not nearly as much as it was, and now it's like, you know, take it or leave it for me. This actually can, I want to have sex.

45:23 Stryker There are people, therapists, that specialize exactly in what you're dealing with, and usually they're connected with fertility clinics, so you need to call back and talk to them, because it can be quite a shattering experience for some women to find out that they are not gonna be a mother, at least not gonna be able to have a baby, and so you gotta kinda work through that and think of your sexuality differently, and that needs a little bit of work, Danielle.

45:44 Okay, cause there was like a period when like, yeah, we didn't have sex, and like that whole period, like all I would do was cry or.

45:51 Stryker Yeah, this has obviously been a really serious experience for you, and you gotta call the fertility clinic back, first of all, make sure that all biological possibilities have been exhausted, and then I'm sure they have therapists connected with that clinic. What was that?

46:05 Caller I was just saying a good clinic should have already been on that, you would think.

46:09 Stryker Yeah, you would think, that's why I'm wondering what worship was going. Lori, 28.

46:15 Caller Lori.

46:16 Drew What's up, you're 28, I'm Loveline.

46:19 Caller Oh, hi, my question was, I'm getting a little resentment from my 17 year old boyfriend, because I kind of suggested that he use these growth enlargement pills.

46:31 Drew I don't believe this, you're 28, he's 17, and you're telling him to take penis enlargement pills?

46:37 Caller Yeah.

46:38 Stryker What do you do for a living, Lori? What do you do for a living?

46:43 Caller I am in retail.

46:45 Stryker You turn your radio off.

46:47 Drew I don't buy this for a minute.

46:49 Caller You don't buy it?

46:50 Stryker Turn your radio off. Turn your radio off. Yeah, the guy in the car is putting her up to this, as usual. We gotta take a break, so we'll hear more about Lori.

47:02 Drew Do you believe it though?

47:04 Stryker I'm not sure yet.

47:05 Caller Why would they be calling you? Just for fun?

47:09 Drew What else do they gotta do? Well, they're in Sherman O.

47:11 Stryker It's Loveline, Stryker in for Adam, The Killers are here, and we'll be back after this.

47:15 Drew What?

47:16 Caller All right guys, here's the deal.

47:18 Caller You looking to hook up, sick of wasting time with the wrong person?

47:21 Adam One call is all you need to make.

47:23 Caller Call the Dateline.

47:24 Caller 877-889-DATE.

47:26 Caller Call the Dateline.

48:02 Drew The Killers are here. I'm Stryker. Filling in for Adam Carolla, Dr. Drew, Board Certified Physician, Addiction Medicine specialist.

48:08 Stryker Thank you.

48:09 Drew 1-800-LOVE-191, Drew's been doing this thing a long time. I like being right by your side and touching your shoulder. You're a good man. Don't touch me. Look, with all my other boyfriends, I've only given them hand jobs. Anderson, hey, hey, hey, hey, very funny. We're going to play Mr. Brightside in just a minute, a song from The Killers and their CD Hot Fuss. But first, Jessica, 16, what's up there?

48:33 Adam Hey, how you doing?

48:37 Stryker Go ahead. Oh, sorry, do you want to go back to your call? She's actually contemplating it. It's a good thing Adam's not here, Jessica, that's all I can say. What's going on?

48:52 Caller I had a question about masturbation.

48:55 Caller Is it okay to not?

48:58 Drew If you're a girl, yes. If you're a guy, hell no.

49:00 Stryker Yeah, again, this is one of the strange territories that people don't like to talk about, but a 16-year-old female, many times, now women have a tremendous range in their sexual sort of response and expressions, but most 16-year-old women can't, and masturbation does nothing for them, and there's nothing you can do to a male by the time he's 16 to prevent him from masturbating. There's nothing you can do. Maybe cut off his penis, but even then, I'm not sure that, you know what I'm saying?

49:29 Drew If you cut off both my arms, I'd still find a way to do it.

49:31 Stryker The idea that it's the environment that creates this is really ridiculous, because for centuries, people have tried to find a way to make the male not masturbate. There is no way, it's never worked, it never will work, and yet the female, we've now gone through several decades of trying to encourage this in the female, and it just doesn't work for many of them.

49:49 Drew It's hard not to masturbate as a guy when you don't have a girlfriend. It is literally, I've tried my best to go two days, I can't even make it two days, it's impossible.

49:58 Adam Why is that? I mean, why is it that the guys have to?

50:01 Stryker Because the men-

50:02 Adam Is it the appendage?

50:04 Stryker No, first of all, it's a completely different biology. The testosterone is a drug that saturates your system. Secondly, there's a fluid that builds up that must be released, and if you don't release it, God will release it for you during the night.

50:14 Drew So you're saying if I go five days without masturbating, I'll have a wet dream?

50:17 Stryker Probably. Well, you'll certainly have a couple of weeks with that one. And there you go.

50:21 Adam That's impossible, dude.

50:22 Stryker And so Jessica, no, you're fine. This is the bizarre thing, we're making women who are normal feel flawed for being normal. You're fine. And when you do feel like doing it, or if you ever do, that'll be fine, too, okay?

50:35 Adam Thank you.

50:37 Drew She's all good. Hold on, Drew. What's the longest you've gone without, wait, do you ever masturbate being married?

50:43 Adam You have 12 year olds, Drew.

50:45 Drew No, I mean, I just wonder. You're at the doctor's office, you're in between patients.

50:49 Stryker No, yeah, well, yeah.

50:50 Drew You got your office.

50:51 Stryker That's generally when you squeeze it off.

50:54 Drew All right, speaking of squeezing it off, we're gonna play a song. And this song plays tricks on my mind when I listen to it, because the words are great and it's a great song.

51:02 Adam Because squeezing it off.

51:04 Drew Yeah, the song is called Mr. Brightside from the band The Killers. 50% of the band, they're here. More at The Killers, but check out the song. It's probably my favorite song on the CD Hot Fuzz. Here it is, Mr. Brightside on Loveline. That was Mr. Brightside from The Killers on Loveline. I'm Stryker with Dr. Drew and The Killers are here. And I'm very, very excited in my life about a few things, music, a little bit of sports, and just having fun. And so when a band like The Killers comes in, and you guys don't know me, you live in a different state, and I'm like, oh, I love this, I love that. I mean, I'm just, I'm very passionate. I like the band very much and music in general. And that song, Mr. Brightside, is such a great song, you guys. Is it about a guy whose mind is playing tricks on him? Because he thinks, you know, the girl's hand's on the chest, the guy's taking off her dress, but you're kind of falling asleep? Or is that happening right next to you when you're falling asleep? Or please help me and tell me.

55:31 Caller This basically goes into detail of someone's imagination that's jealous.

55:37 Adam Right.

55:38 Drew And how the mind can play tricks on a guy, right?

55:41 Caller Can be an ugly place, yeah.

55:43 Adam It's loosely based on Wyatt, not in the band Boswell's life. There's a shout out.

55:50 Drew I was talking to someone here, KROQ, on the radio, a big thing we did about that song on the radio. I'm like, I don't think it's abnormal for a guy's mind to play tricks on him when she's choking. No, I'm serious. When the girl's out doing something and it's just like weird coincidence when she says something, but that really happened, but it was really something different. And your mind is like, no, she's making out with that guy. She's screwing him when she's really supposed to be at work. But she was really at work. And then it just, it destroys you. Your head and your stomach just kill after that. Is that kind of the gist of it?

56:22 Caller That's part of it, yeah.

56:24 Drew All right. Mr. Brightside, The Killers. Find him in a city nearest to you, like San Francisco, pretty soon. Let's go to Liz, your 22, on Loveline.

56:32 Caller Hi, I'm just, this is a question for The Killers. I was at the show on Saturday and I was just like totally blown away by the way you guys dressed. It was just really like cute, snappy. And I was just wondering, what inspires you to dress that way? I mean, not too many people, like rockers out there, are like, you know, dressing up.

56:49 Stryker So snappy.

56:49 Drew You guys have a stylist, right? I'm just kidding.

56:53 Caller I'm just kidding. So was it England or Vegas or?

56:58 Caller Partially, I think it's a couple of things for me. It's a, I think it, you know, I wouldn't want to play these songs in, you know, in a holey jeans and a T-shirt. And then the other part of it is, I always enjoyed getting dressed up my whole life. You know, whether it was going to church or whatever it was, that was something that excited me. I loved getting snappy.

57:25 Drew Ronnie, do you have a members only jacket?

57:28 Adam I do, not at the moment.

57:29 Drew Okay, no, but I thought I saw you wearing one at some point, but I may be wrong with that.

57:33 Adam I don't know, it was a while ago maybe.

57:34 Drew Yeah, I'm pretty sure I may have seen that.

57:37 Adam Yeah. You know, dressing up is important. It's not really dressing up, it's just, you have to look nice.

57:46 Caller You guys look really cool. I love like Brandon's pink shirt in the Found Saturday.

57:50 Drew Oh, back to the pink shirt again.

57:52 Caller Different pink shirt.

57:54 Stryker Snappy pink shirt.

57:55 Drew Cool, all right Ashley.

57:57 Adam Thank you for noticing.

57:58 Drew I mean Liz.

57:59 Adam See you next time.

58:00 Drew Goodbye. Ashley, now we go to you, you're 29 on Loveline.

58:07 Adam Hello.

58:09 Caller Well, I've been with this guy. He just turned 21 today.

58:13 Adam Happy birthday, guy.

58:16 Caller And you know, I really love sex and you know, he's all for it too. Don't think he's a little rough sometimes.

58:23 Adam He beat you? Does he beat you?

58:27 Caller No, no, not at all. I just wanna give him tips on how to be softer to help me come, because of course he comes, but I don't.

58:35 Drew Is he rough in terms of the thrusting of the pelvis or is it more of his hands?

58:39 Caller Yes, yes. You know, putting my legs all the way up above my head and I mean, that's cool and all, but.

58:44 Adam That's just the way it is, girl.

58:47 Caller I mean, I wanna give him tips like, how can I tell him like, you know, to soften it up a little.

58:51 Stryker Have you said anything to him yet?

58:53 Caller Well, I've only been with him a few times.

58:55 Stryker Look, guys aim to please and all you gotta say is, you know, I'm glad you're into this, I'm into it too, but here's what I need and just spell it out, period. Guys want you to be happy for the most part and men unfortunately have great confusion about how to do that because they know what they like and they're very carefully coached to believe that women want exactly what men want, therefore, whatever I like, you must like.

59:18 Drew Or maybe he thinks you look best with your ankles around your ears.

59:22 Stryker So you've gotta just tell him, he'll be fine.

59:24 Drew He's 21.

59:25 Stryker Yeah, just tell him you're great, you have a great time, but this is what I really need.

59:29 Drew And if there's any hint that he's not gonna get any, he'll listen, believe me.

59:32 Stryker Oh yeah, you hold all the cards.

59:35 Caller Yeah, he's so into the fact that I'm like eight years older than him and he just loves that, you know? And he's, I don't know, I mean, I wanna tell him, you know, go down on me, but I'm afraid that he's gonna get all scared, you know, because he's intimidated that I'm older.

59:48 Stryker No, Ashley, stop.

59:49 Drew Tell him, baby, just do it, okay?

59:51 Stryker Men really like instruction. All you gotta do is just, but make sure you don't wait till you're resentful and frustrated, and then go, well, you just, oh, you just go do this.

1:00:02 Caller That's, that's...

1:00:03 Stryker Okay, but that's what they don't like. They don't like you waiting till you're frustrated and resentful and coming at them with demands. That is not good.

1:00:13 Drew And then you feel small, and you don't feel good about yourself. So tell it before the fact, like Drew said. Hey, Mo, you're 18.

1:00:19 Caller Yeah, I'm calling from Upland. My girlfriend, we've been having sex for about four months, and she won't let me fuck her now.

1:00:29 Drew You get that? Did you save us? Did everyone save us? Okay, good. Let's go to Crystal. I think that was a real call, right? I'm having the same problem at home. What's up, Crystal? You're 22.

1:00:41 Caller Yeah, my boyfriend and I have been together for about four years, and about two years ago, I started getting yeast infections quite a bit, and I thought maybe we'd have something to do. I never had the problem before, but then again, he's the first person I've had sex with, and he's not circumcised, but I was wondering if there's anything that might have to do with that, if it was, you know, hiding somewhere.

1:01:04 Stryker Yeah, it's possible, but just having sex can trigger yeast infections, so.

1:01:09 Caller Okay, I was gonna say, is there anything we can do?

1:01:11 Stryker Well, he can get, you can get some more. Oh, sorry, I was seeing them in the hallway. Crystal, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.

1:01:16 Drew An almond speed and a fetter and even a bread bag.

1:01:18 Stryker Right, Crystal, you can make, he can get some anti-yeast cream, maybe talk to a dermatologist about that, making sure it's all cleared up, even start with something over the counter, their anti-fungal creams there, keep things real dry with the head of the penis down as the foreskin pulled back. And then sometimes, some women need to be, there's just a New England Journal article that came out today, interestingly, about women with recurrent yeast infections needing to take a medication called Diflucan all the time.

1:01:43 Drew Diflucan.

1:01:44 Stryker As the only way, the Fluconazole. And so having recurrent yeast infections is not at all uncommon. You ought to be checked to make sure it's not a thyroid problem or a blood sugar problem, but that's rare.

1:01:52 Drew Let me ask you a question about the yeast infection. Why having sex often, I'm asking Drew, actually, having sex often triggers it.

1:01:59 Stryker There's anything that upsets the, it's like an ecosystem down there. And anything that intrudes from it out.

1:02:05 Drew Is it the fluids that cause it, or is it the rubbing against the skin, or what is it?

1:02:10 Stryker Different for different women, probably. It's probably a lot of different factors. Just it may, sometimes it's a condom that does it.

1:02:16 Drew Or not.

1:02:17 Stryker Or not.

1:02:18 Drew Chris, you're 22 on Loveline. What's going on? The Killers are here.

1:02:26 Caller Oh, okay.

1:02:27 Stryker Hey, whoa. Okay, I got with this guy about five years ago. We were together seven months, moved in right away. My house got raided, we both went to prison.

1:02:39 Stryker Whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down. You're 17.

1:02:42 Drew Your house got raided for what purpose?

1:02:44 Stryker You moved in together?

1:02:45 Stryker I was actually in possession of sales, because all that is a good junk.

1:02:49 Stryker You sound like a stimulate user. So, speed?

1:02:54 Stryker Okay, we moved in together, like.

1:02:57 Stryker Wait, wait, what were you arrested for?

1:03:00 Stryker Manufacturing, possession of sales.

1:03:02 Stryker Of what? Of what? That's what I just said.

1:03:05 Drew Just from Bakersfield, of course it's meth.

1:03:06 Stryker I just said, you sound like a speed user, and you laughed at that.

1:03:10 Stryker No, I'm not a speed user.

1:03:11 Drew Just a maker.

1:03:12 Adam She's a speed maker.

1:03:14 Stryker I was not.

1:03:15 Drew Like, most bakers only make the bread. They don't eat it.

1:03:17 Stryker I've never met a speed maker that doesn't use a little speed.

1:03:20 Drew But you know what they said in that NWA song? Don't get high if you're own supply.

1:03:24 Stryker You're doing your own product.

1:03:26 Drew Right.

1:03:27 Stryker All right, so what's, so you were 17.

1:03:30 Stryker I was 17.

1:03:31 Stryker Moved in with some guy who was how old?

1:03:34 Stryker When he was 20. We were both young.

1:03:37 Stryker And, but where were you, where were your parents?

1:03:41 Drew How was, who was making the meth? How did you know how to make it?

1:03:45 Stryker I've lived away from home since I was like 15.

1:03:47 Stryker Why, what happened?

1:03:48 Stryker I had a lot of issues.

1:03:52 Stryker Problems, yeah, what happened?

1:03:54 Stryker Spent about 10 years being raped and molested by my grandfather and.

1:03:58 Stryker Oh, perfectly normal, perfectly natural.

1:04:00 Stryker Okay, you know, stuff like that, whatever. So I kind of left home when I was young and lived on my own. By the time I was 17, my dad got me an apartment or whatever, you know, so I lived on my own. He moved in with me almost instantly, you know. We went to prison. I came home, I moved on with my life, you know, started getting my stuff together, you know, and he comes home about five months ago and he pops into my life. And we start having sex, but not a relationship, you know, we don't want a relationship or whatever. And then he decides that he wants to be serious again. But I just went, I just got my own place recently, I'm working two jobs, you know, and I told him that if he was serious and he really wanted to be serious with me, he would be serious. And he won't let me go. I've tried to end it, you know, and tell him.

1:04:56 Drew What's the question then, Chris?

1:04:59 Stryker What do I do? I don't know what to do. Like I don't know, I mean, I call him and I'll tell him, you know, just bring me back my things and you know, that's it, you know.

1:05:08 Drew You have moved on with your life. You have two jobs. You are in jail. Most likely because you got involved with him at 17. Let him keep the stuff that he has.

1:05:18 Stryker Change your phone number, change your locks. You obviously have trouble with boundaries. Naturally enough, having been sexually abused most of your life, you've got to be able to set down boundaries and hold them. You want this guy out, he's out, that's it. You don't contact him, you don't have communication with him. That's it, alright?

1:05:34 Adam You've already gone to jail.

1:05:37 Drew You don't want to go back.

1:05:38 Adam Together.

1:05:39 Drew Ashley, 17, what's up, you're on Loveline.

1:05:44 Caller Okay, me and my boyfriend were in his mom's car.

1:05:48 Drew That's just funny in itself, I love it.

1:05:52 Caller I gave him a hand job and he kind of went on his stomach. And he was trying to clean it off himself, I guess. And he like wipes it off with his hand and then he proceeded to get onto me and finger me with the same hand. So I was wondering if there was any possibility that it could be knocked up.

1:06:09 Stryker Again, a lot of products of finishing school and higher education tonight. Quite interesting. Could you be knocked up by the finger?

1:06:19 Drew Can the sperm live from stomach to finger to vagina?

1:06:21 Stryker Yes, it sure could. But that'd be a pretty rare event, but it certainly could.

1:06:25 Drew So he could have taken the live little swimming sperm. From his third finger over from the far right.

1:06:31 Stryker His finger could have been the turkey-based drivel of, yes.

1:06:33 Caller Wow. Oh, my.

1:06:36 Drew So should she take the morning after pill from finger?

1:06:38 Stryker Yes.

1:06:39 Drew The finger morning after pill?

1:06:40 Stryker Do you know what the morning after pill is, Ashley? Yes. You know anything about taking that?

1:06:44 Drew Yeah, I do. I love how he wiped it off his stomach and went straight for you.

1:06:47 Stryker Yes, guys. All class. 1888... Hold on. 1888, not number too late. 1888, not too late is a phone number. You can call to get the referral to a pharmacy in your area where you can get the morning after pill without a prescription. How much is that? It's about 30 bucks.

1:07:04 Drew How many do you get?

1:07:05 Stryker Two pills. I think it's either two or four pills.

1:07:07 Drew And how many is the whole operation to get the morning?

1:07:11 Stryker How many what?

1:07:12 Drew Pills do you need to say...

1:07:13 Stryker You just take one pill and then another set 12 hours later. That's it. And you've really prevented ovulation. If you've already ovulated and the sperm is up there, it's going to get you pregnant.

1:07:25 Drew What he should have done was wipe it off his belly, lick it, and then use the tongue to... That would have really...

1:07:30 Caller Whatever.

1:07:31 Drew Okay. It was break or we should talk to Molly?

1:07:34 Stryker Break.

1:07:34 Drew Alright, really?

1:07:35 Stryker Yeah.

1:07:36 Drew Alright, we're just on a roll. I was getting excited right there.

1:07:38 Stryker You want to talk to Molly?

1:07:39 Drew No, I'm going to go in the bathroom for a minute.

1:07:41 Stryker Want to tease her call?

1:07:43 Drew Yeah. Molly, we're going to talk to her in a minute. She's 20. She has anal with her 30-year-old boyfriend often and then has intercourse later and she's curious that there could be a smell because of that.

1:07:53 Stryker Transfer.

1:07:54 Drew You know. Yeah, I don't know.

1:07:56 Stryker Use your imagination.

1:07:56 Drew You go from the exit into the enter anyway. Okay, we'll talk to Molly after this and The Killers as well here on Loveline.

1:08:40 Three, two, one, go.

1:08:42 Drew We're back here on Loveline. I'm Stryker for Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew, and Brandon and Ron, you're here from The Killers. You guys, did you already film the OC? You already did it?

1:08:51 Caller Yes, we did.

1:08:52 Drew And it's gonna be on in December?

1:08:54 Caller December 2nd.

1:08:55 Drew And how was doing the OC, filming it and participating in that?

1:09:01 Caller It was awesome seeing how they do these shows. That was fun for me.

1:09:05 Drew How many?

1:09:06 Adam Really comfortable, surprisingly.

1:09:08 Drew Any lines?

1:09:09 Caller Just the act.

1:09:10 Drew Really? You'd be a good actor, Ronnie.

1:09:13 Adam Well, thank you.

1:09:14 Drew You kinda look like Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise.

1:09:17 Adam Oh. Together. We've never gotten that one before.

1:09:23 Drew Who do you get?

1:09:24 Caller Who do you get that you look like?

1:09:26 Adam Oh man, I get Jason Lee a lot.

1:09:27 Caller Yeah, there you go.

1:09:28 Drew Yeah, Jason Lee as well.

1:09:29 Adam Yeah.

1:09:30 Drew When you guys, when a band films on the OC, I believe I've only seen like one or two episodes because it's always on when I'm working. What do they do with the bands? Is it just that you're at some hot club in the OC?

1:09:41 Caller The kids actually come to see a Killers gig in it, I believe, and there's Marquis and everything, so.

1:09:48 Adam Right.

1:09:48 Drew They're doing really well in that show, getting credible bands. I think The Walkmen were on there as well.

1:09:53 Caller Good band.

1:09:53 Drew Yeah, good band. You guys, and you're gonna be playing with The Walkmen and Morse and Tears for Fears and Billy Idol, Francis Ferdinand, Devo.

1:10:02 Adam Frank Ferdinand.

1:10:03 Drew His real name's Francis. He got killed when it started World War I. Muse, Flock of Seagulls, Death Cab, Missing Persons. That's September 18th, Hyundai Pavilion. You can still get tickets. It's gonna be an unbelievable show. By the way, you guys are gonna be sweating your freaking arses off. I know you're from Vegas.

1:10:18 Stryker Are we gonna do something better with the access to that backstage air?

1:10:21 Drew Do you remember that last year? You and I were talking about that. Yeah.

1:10:24 Stryker Is something better gonna happen this year?

1:10:26 Drew I don't know, I don't run the thing. I just show up and watch.

1:10:28 Stryker But I mean, I don't think I'm gonna do that. It was like a one hour ride through the desert.

1:10:32 Drew Yeah.

1:10:34 Stryker On a tram, really back roaded on a tram.

1:10:37 Drew It was, it was kind of like Universal Studios without the King Kong. Yeah. All right, if you wanna talk to the Killers, we got another 30 minutes, 1-800-LOVE-191, or talk about anal sex, like Molly. Hit that, Drew, you're 20. On Loveline, what's up Molly?

1:10:53 Caller Well, my question is, I just wanna know like what's going on, like me and my boyfriend, he's 30 years old, I'm 20 years old. We've been together for four years and we decided to try anal sex and regular sex right after that. The anal sex, I guess I didn't mind, I mean it felt really good the first time but then afterwards what really went wrong was like the flops on my skin turned to inflate and I wanna know like what happened.

1:11:18 Drew Your what? Your what? Your what?

1:11:21 Caller Your what? No, the skin, the skin around my vaginal area.

1:11:29 Stryker You got inflamed, okay, so you got an infection probably.

1:11:32 Caller Is it really? Because he did mention something about inflammation but I wasn't sure. I couldn't close my legs because it was so awkward.

1:11:40 Stryker Well, okay, well, now wait a minute. A lot of possibilities. Now, was that the first time you'd had sex together?

1:11:46 Caller No, we have sex like every day.

1:11:48 Stryker Is there any chance that he had, did he have anything on his penis or anything? Any skin lesions?

1:11:53 Caller No, he...

1:11:54 Drew He was in the bacterial area though.

1:11:55 Stryker No, but I'm wondering whether we don't have what's called a red herring here that may be able to hurt his outbreak and that's it.

1:12:01 Caller I don't know what it is, but he's natural, like he has a skin, like his skin, I don't know what you call it. Is it circumcised?

1:12:07 Stryker But he doesn't have any rashes or anything on his penis.

1:12:09 Caller No, he doesn't, but the thing is like when we have sex, like regular sex, his skin peels, and I think it's like the juice that comes out of my vagina.

1:12:18 Stryker People are being quite specific.

1:12:19 Stryker And I don't know if that contributes to anything.

1:12:21 Stryker No, that doesn't contribute to anything.

1:12:22 Drew It doesn't contribute to anything.

1:12:24 Stryker No, okay, so now after you have anal sex, does he clean himself and then have intercourse?

1:12:29 Drew No.

1:12:29 Stryker So you do a right to it. So you probably got, as the band is so aptly jumping to the conclusion that they were anxious to go to that place where they wanted to tell you that it's bacteria you brought from behind to the front and that doesn't belong there. And you get bad infections in the vagina from that. Or you can also get sexually transmitted diseases per se.

1:12:48 Drew From the butt to the butt.

1:12:49 Stryker No, maybe the boyfriend had something, but probably not since they've been doing well for a while and this is the first time they engage in that behavior.

1:12:54 Drew So you liked it the first time, though, the anal, huh?

1:12:58 Caller Yeah, like as long as it's lubricated and it's really wet, it's all good.

1:13:01 Stryker She sounds very enthusiastic about it. Yeah.

1:13:04 Drew As long as it's got the astroglide in there and it's literally what it is.

1:13:07 Caller I have to be really, really turned on, otherwise I wouldn't be up for it. But it's just that one incident, it happened twice and it really scared me because I wasn't about ready to go to a doctor, spread my legs and say, what happened? Why is my vagina inflated?

1:13:22 Drew That's a horrible attitude to have, Dr. Drew, isn't it?

1:13:26 Stryker Well, Molly, what do you think people come to the doctor for?

1:13:29 Caller It's just I'm never, I'm not used to that. I've never gone to the doctor for anything like that.

1:13:34 Drew You gotta bite the bullet and do it when you have a problem.

1:13:36 Stryker Then you gotta do it because that's important. You can get serious infections, you can get urinary infections, you can get infections that get up into the tubes and cause scarring, it's a mess. They have an inflammatory disease, so you gotta take care of this, all right?

1:13:49 Drew Let's go to Thenic, number two, Kenneth, you're 25 on Loveline. What's going on?

1:13:55 Caller Yeah, how you doing? I have kind of a small curvature in my penis and my wife and I have sex, but she only complains when it's from behind.

1:14:07 Stryker All right, well don't do that.

1:14:08 Caller I heard so. Well no, but I'm wondering if there's some way I can, is there any way to correct that or am I kind of?

1:14:14 Stryker Yes, there is a surgery that can correct that, but I wouldn't advise you have it. I'd advise you avoid the positions that hurt her.

1:14:20 Drew But you know what's crazy? Doggy is such a fantastic position. I'm sure you can attribute to that. You know that doggy. You told me that the other week.

1:14:26 Stryker Yeah, I was just doing it over lunch.

1:14:28 Drew Over lunch at the Apple Pan. And that sucks that you can't do doggy anymore.

1:14:34 Stryker Yeah, well it's not that he can't do it anymore. He's got to be very cautious and slow and you know, go easy with it, but he certainly can't do it with any gusto.

1:14:41 Caller Dr. Drew, my wife is reading your book, correct?

1:14:45 Stryker Yeah.

1:14:46 Caller And I know you were having this new book come out to deal with painkillers. I'm taking a medication right now that's called Tussin-X suspension.

1:14:56 Stryker Tussin-X.

1:14:56 Caller Have you heard of that?

1:14:57 Stryker Now the real talk. Well, Tussin-X is just like a cough syrup.

1:15:00 Caller Well, yeah, but it's antihistamine with hydrocodone in it.

1:15:03 Stryker All right, so it's got Vicodin in it. All right.

1:15:05 Caller Is it Vicodin? And I mean, how do you, I mean, I'm not sure. It doesn't say it on the bottle, but do you know how much like hydrocodone or Vicodin that's actually in that, because I'm taking...

1:15:15 Stryker Well, I can tell you, whatever it is in it, you should never be taking that more than about a week. If you've taken it more than a week, you got a problem.

1:15:23 Caller Yeah, like a week and a half.

1:15:24 Stryker All right, well, cut it out. Cut it out, it's all right. Cut it down.

1:15:27 Caller I mean, I'm up to like two, it says one teaspoon every 12 hours, but I'll take two.

1:15:32 Stryker Yeah, well, you're going. You're getting going here, so go take, just stop.

1:15:35 Drew That was the real part of the call, by the way.

1:15:38 Stryker All right? Seriously, Kenneth, take it easy. You could be going with the opiates.

1:15:42 Drew All right, let's go to Daisy. You're 20 on Loveline with the Killers.

1:15:46 Caller Hello. I was wondering whether, well, here's a question for the Killers, obviously.

1:15:52 Caller I was wondering whether it is essential for you to maintain a definitive signature killer sound or whether you would like to develop your sound for the following album, because this album is multifaceted, which I love, but I was wondering whether you were planning to keep a signature sound, or whether you would want to change it up.

1:16:14 Adam Good question.

1:16:15 Caller That is a good question. We think the album's very diverse, too. We like a lot of different types of music, and I don't ever see us going in a certain direction, just hardcore, but...

1:16:30 Adam He means in one direction only.

1:16:34 Caller Yeah, because we love so many different types of music, which is what you're saying you can tell, basically, on the record. And I don't know. We just kinda do what comes to us.

1:16:46 Drew Are you even remotely close to writing any new songs? Because this is really just now starting to catch on with people. It's okay that people are late, and they're just starting to hear the first single. Are you even thinking about the next record?

1:17:00 Caller We are.

1:17:00 Adam We've got like 15 song deals. We'll call them Finnish songs, yeah. Probably 15 or 16.

1:17:10 Caller We are growing a lot. I guess we definitely want to stick around and actually mature with the music.

1:17:20 Drew What about keeping your credibility on the next record? Is there anything that you guys think about that you for sure, as a band, we can't do this because we've had these fans in Vegas that came to our shows when there was 10 of them there, and we have to make sure not to do this because then they're going to say this about us. Is that ever coming to play?

1:17:37 Adam Well, from the beginning, the band's never been contrived in every way. It's never been like, you know, one big idea. And I think as long as you just keep writing the good songs like we do.

1:17:49 Drew You'll be fine then.

1:17:50 Adam Yeah, just keep the integrity of the band. I think it'll follow through. I think it'll be good.

1:17:58 Drew Nice. That's The Killers we're talking to if you're just listening to Loveline here. And now we're going to Rose 23. What's up, Rose?

1:18:07 Caller I just found out not too long ago that I'm pregnant and I grew up. I had a bad childhood and I was wondering how is that going to affect my parenting or should I get help?

1:18:21 Stryker Get. Yes. Are you in a car?

1:18:25 Caller Yes.

1:18:25 Stryker I thought I heard a smoke alarm for a second. Yes, Abbrose, please, the fact that you're thinking about getting help is a great sign because here's the possibilities. When you've had horrible parenting, when those are the images of parenting that you have sort of stored deeply in your brain, you're either going to be, in spite of yourself, have parenting styles and parenting impulses that are going to very much be like those of your parent or you're going to have a profound reaction against it and go completely the other way and end up making mistakes because you're avoiding so profoundly with the same kinds of things you see yourself, in yourself, that were in your parents. I'm not making myself clear, but you're going to go from one extreme to the other. Either you're going to be like your parent or completely opposite and both are reactions to your parents. Both are pathological and you need help sorting that out.

1:19:14 Drew So you said like in Dante's Inferno, that was your example earlier.

1:19:17 Stryker Yes, that in hell we are attracted to things that were terrorizing in childhood and earlier in life. And Rose, you got a great plan. Get some help, okay?

1:19:28 Drew Good luck, Rose. Good job, by the way. Getting pregnant.

1:19:30 Stryker Thank you. Well, and getting help with it. Well, both.

1:19:33 Drew Maybe she was going for it. I'm going to go for it, Rusty. Rusty's not going to pork her. Amy, what's up? You're 23 on Loveline.

1:19:41 Caller I went to the doctor and I was having problems that seemed to be like a UTI and they had me have a urine sample and they were going to test me for the UTI and additionally for chlamydia which I've been with my boyfriend for three years and I really didn't think I was going to be positive.

1:20:03 Stryker Did you have a UTI?

1:20:05 Caller Well, when I got the results back, it came up negative for the UTI, positive for chlamydia. And I confronted my boyfriend about it, it was pretty open, we communicate pretty well and we were both like, what is going on? So he went and got tested and he found out that he was negative and I had never done anything like been cheated on or anything even close to…

1:20:33 Stryker Did you go with him to the doctor?

1:20:36 Caller I'm sorry?

1:20:36 Stryker Did you go with him to the doctor?

1:20:38 Caller Yeah, I went with him and I heard the results over the phone from the doctor with him.

1:20:42 Caller Huh, strange.

1:20:44 Caller So that's why I'm just, it totally threw me for a loop as far as what could be going on, how accurately…

1:20:50 Stryker Yeah, it's possible. Maybe your test was inaccurate, maybe his was inaccurate. Maybe you have just chlamydia sort of in the tubes and it got detected and…

1:20:59 Drew That's going to be the name of my first record.

1:21:01 Stryker Chlamydia in the tubes? Yeah. And for whatever reason it's not sort of made it to him yet but that's a hard thing to understand. Do you use condoms all the time?

1:21:09 Caller Well, no, I mean we've been together for three years so we're both, we don't really use, I just use birth control, I don't really use condoms anymore.

1:21:18 Stryker No condoms. It's hard to understand that one Amy.

1:21:21 Caller Is it possible to have chlamydia for like three years and not know it and not have any symptoms at all?

1:21:28 Stryker For a woman, absolutely. Yes, that's definitely the case. But you would think your boyfriend would still have it. The way I would approach this is it's a mystery, I'm not sure we can really get to the bottom of it. Both of you need to be treated. You both take the Zithromax.

1:21:43 Drew The Z-Pak.

1:21:44 Stryker It's more than a Z-Pak.

1:21:46 Caller That's what I took and the doctor gave it to him, he didn't take it.

1:21:50 Stryker He needs to take it for sure. For sure.

1:21:53 Drew Drew, why is that? Go ahead, Amy.

1:21:55 Caller Oh, I'm sorry. I was just going to ask also, as far as if the test was accurate, when I went into the doctor that wasn't my initial problem, I was having problems sleeping. So, that was just like an added thing that I told her to check me for. And when I went in and got tested for like had the urine test, my symptoms like the burning, the tickle more or less, not a burning, were already kind of like, you know. I know.

1:22:21 Stryker It doesn't matter. It's all gone. It really doesn't matter. It's all gone. A lot of people are advocating that all young people be tested for chlamydia every time they interact with the doctor. It's so common.

1:22:32 Drew I was going to ask about the Z-Pak.

1:22:33 Adam Yeah.

1:22:33 Caller Z-Pak.

1:22:33 Drew No matter what you have.

1:22:35 Stryker It covers a lot of stuff.

1:22:36 Adam Chlamydia?

1:22:36 Drew Or a cold? What the hell?

1:22:38 Stryker Well, the problem is when you go for a cold, you shouldn't be on antibiotics. I've lectured you about this before. And if you were going to respond to something, this is a very good medication to the side effects of erythromycin. The problem is it's so broad spectrum and so powerful, it's making the organisms in the environment resistant to a drug that is really quite useful, rendering it obsolete.

1:23:02 Drew What other ever happened to amoxicillin? That's just a penicillin. Okay, and then they're like, the Z-Pak's better, it's quicker, six, seven days, you're getting in your...

1:23:08 Stryker Penicillin is for strep only. Got it. That's it, period. Some of the, a lot of sore throats are by chlamydia type organisms.

1:23:15 Drew Really?

1:23:16 Stryker Not chlamydia trachomatis, which is what causes the sexual transplants. Of course. Take a break.

1:23:21 Drew All right, Chlamydia in the Tubes will be coming out probably next Thursday. The Killers are here. We got a little bit more time with them. I'm Stryker and Dr. Drew in Loveline, more after the ass.

1:24:04 One, two, one, go.

1:24:06 Drew All right, what's up, you guys? It's Loveline, I'm Stryker, filling in for Adam Carolla, Dr. Drew. Papa Roach will be in here two nights from now. Tomorrow, I don't think there's a guest yet coming in. Hey, how is Jenna Jamison, by the way, Dr. Drew?

1:24:20 Stryker She's good, she's good.

1:24:21 Drew Fun, exposing any?

1:24:23 Stryker Yeah, she's got, you should see her book, she's got a lot of trauma, a lot of stuff.

1:24:28 Drew Skin, skin.

1:24:28 Stryker Oh, oh, yeah, no.

1:24:31 Drew No?

1:24:32 Stryker She's sort of, we've known her for years, she's been on the show a few times.

1:24:34 Drew She was good. Damn, I wish I was working that night over there.

1:24:37 Stryker Chris was transfixed. Chris, were you transfixed? He went into the sub- Engineer Chris? Oh, it was the most, it was the strangest thing. She stayed for an hour and a half and she left. And all of a sudden, I was worried there was a stirring on the other side as though, I was just so nervous. It's like he'd been in cement and it was sort of like the Tin Man coming out of it. It's like, oh, Chris, you're there, oh my God.

1:24:56 Drew God, I wish I would have been here that night. Good times. The Killers are here hanging out for a little bit more. Look for them on the $2 Bill Show. It's the MTV2 Tour that they're gonna do. Do you know who you're gonna be on the road with for that?

1:25:10 Caller Actually, just one show. Yeah.

1:25:12 Drew Oh, just the one, oh, that's what that is?

1:25:14 Caller Yeah.

1:25:14 Caller Secret Machines.

1:25:15 Caller Oh, really?

1:25:16 Drew Yeah, I know who they are. Do you know where that's gonna, is that announced?

1:25:19 Caller Is that a secret show?

1:25:21 Stryker Did anybody watch the MTV Video Awards last week?

1:25:24 Drew That was yesterday.

1:25:25 Stryker Yesterday? Do you watch them?

1:25:27 Drew I watched 40 minutes.

1:25:28 Adam We saw a little bit on the bus. We heard her song.

1:25:30 Stryker I feel like nobody watched it.

1:25:32 Drew Go ahead, Brad.

1:25:34 Caller It didn't, you know, it didn't, it could have been a little more classy or something to me.

1:25:39 Stryker The people that did do it complained, and very few people seemed to be watching.

1:25:41 Drew It didn't have the same luster or something, right? I watched like 40 minutes and I was like, eh, whatever.

1:25:47 Adam Just didn't seem special.

1:25:48 Drew I agree.

1:25:49 Caller The Polyphonic Spree performance I loved.

1:25:51 Adam That was cool.

1:25:52 Drew I didn't see that.

1:25:53 Caller It was really good.

1:25:54 Drew The only thing, I know I saw Alicia Keys play, and that was cool, Lenny Kravitz and Stevie Wonder. And I saw a rap group, I don't know their name, but Lil Jon was in it.

1:26:05 Adam Oh, I like them.

1:26:05 Drew Yeah.

1:26:06 Adam I like those guys.

1:26:07 Drew Yeah, Lil Jon, it was cool. You know who Lil Jon is? I don't know him personally either, but he's pretty good. Usher was out there, or Usher. Usher. It's lame. He's got the song to make the booty go smack. Melanie, you're 20 on Love Line, what's up?

1:26:25 Caller Hey, I was just calling because me and my boyfriend just started having sex, and he's my first, so I don't know a whole bunch about it. But I was wondering if he doesn't use a condom or anything, but you know how you can come before he comes back?

1:26:41 Stryker Pre-come, right?

1:26:43 Caller Yeah.

1:26:44 Caller Yeah, and I was wondering, can that get you pregnant?

1:26:46 Drew Yes, I can answer that one, yes.

1:26:48 Stryker Absolutely.

1:26:49 Caller Is he missing that the pull-out method is okay because-

1:26:53 Stryker No, no, pull-out method, you may already be pregnant if you've been using the pull-out method. You've got to wear condoms- What? No, he cannot feel the-

1:27:05 Drew Melanie, two minutes before you think you're gonna come, little driplets can come out of there.

1:27:11 Stryker Often highly concentrated in sperm. If you are not using a condom and not using birth control, you are going to get pregnant, period.

1:27:19 Caller I mean, I went to school in America, and I know, you should know this.

1:27:23 Stryker Yeah. She went to school in Los Angeles, though, so she didn't talk about that stuff.

1:27:31 Caller Yeah. So, but I was just wondering, because he doesn't want me on birth control.

1:27:34 Stryker Hey, hey, Millie, come on. Don't be so stupid.

1:27:38 Drew You're 20 years old, and taking this attitude, that's ridiculous.

1:27:41 Stryker This guy's an asshole. You need to protect yourself. Come on. You're going to get pregnant. Is that what you want?

1:27:50 Drew No.

1:27:51 Stryker Okay, then get on birth control, or make him work on it. Believe me.

1:27:55 Drew You hold all the cards. If you say you have to wear a condom or no sex, believe me, he'll be at the store so fast buying probably the smaller condoms. I'm serious. And also, with the pullout method, of course you can get pregnant from that, but the guy, because you haven't got pregnant, say 10 times in a row, he gets a little more cocky in how long he actually will leave it in there, and then more driplets are going to come out. And then you got a bun in the oven. Drew, please. Kathy, 24, what's up?

1:28:23 Stryker Good.

1:28:25 Caller I had a question. I'm going to be at the show this coming Wednesday, and I just had a question for The Killers. I was wondering, what's your favorite song to play live? Ah.

1:28:35 Caller You know, it differs. Midnight Show is always fun for me. It's just a very exciting song to play. We always finish usually with a song, All These Things That I've Done.

1:28:46 Caller Yeah, that's so fair.

1:28:48 Caller And I like the way it makes me feel when we finish with that song. And so that's another one of my favorites. Ronnie?

1:29:01 Adam It's different every night. I guess we look forward, you know, we talk about songs before we play them sometimes and different little nuances about them and it just makes you enjoy them.

1:29:12 Drew You guys still get nervous for certain cities or certain crowds or is it just, it is what it is?

1:29:18 Adam You get the butterfly, I mean you get excited. I don't know if it's nerves, but I don't know if it's, I don't know if it stops you from playing a show or anything.

1:29:27 Drew No, of course it doesn't stop you, but you know, butterfly excitement type thing.

1:29:31 Adam Yeah.

1:29:31 Caller Every time, yeah.

1:29:33 Adam That's good, you always have to have that I think.

1:29:35 Drew What about family that you have in Vegas? They ever come out to LA and see the shows that aren't in Vegas and see what you guys are up to and how big it's getting? Do they know, do they realize?

1:29:43 Adam I have my little brother Nick right here.

1:29:45 Drew Yeah, what's up Nick?

1:29:46 Adam Representing Nick.

1:29:47 Drew Yeah.

1:29:48 Caller My mom and my sister came down from Vegas to the Troubadour shows, yeah.

1:29:53 Drew What did they think of the Troubadour, the heat in there, the closeness, just the vibe. It's just a, you know, it's a legendary place as well.

1:30:00 Caller Yeah. Oh, that's, they're always excited no matter what.

1:30:05 Drew Proud of you, right? I'm proud of you too. I'm not even related. Derek, what's up? You're 20 on Loveline.

1:30:16 Caller Well, let's start off with this, that I've been dating this girl for almost a year now, and she lost her virginity to me, and we really love each other. We both like, we were like really in love and shit. So anyways.

1:30:31 Stryker Well, Anderson just broke him ous.

1:30:36 Drew Drew, I don't know if there's a right answer to this. Is there a wrong, is there, what do you think is an average amount of time a couple going out for a year or more has sex per week? Average.

1:30:49 Stryker Now you mean up to a year?

1:30:50 Drew No, they've been dating a year, and now you're past that point.

1:30:53 Stryker Probably twice.

1:30:54 Drew Twice a week? Really?

1:30:55 Stryker Young couple, yeah. Well, what do you think?

1:30:58 Drew How much would I want, or how much do I think?

1:30:59 Stryker No, no, how much do you think?

1:31:00 Drew I think three to four.

1:31:03 Stryker It's a little steep.

1:31:04 Drew Really?

1:31:04 Stryker Yeah.

1:31:05 Drew Is it because of time, or is it because of the, or because the honeymoon so-called focuses over?

1:31:09 Stryker Yeah, the people get into their sort of rhythm, and one and a half times a week is basically sort of a national average.

1:31:15 Drew But the intensity can still be there when you're not doing it, of course. Do you know what I mean? In terms of the intimacy with the brain, even though you're not sleeping together seven times a week, but you still can feel it when you're not doing it. Oh, sure. Which is why after a year, you don't have to do it seven times a week.

1:31:28 Stryker Right, and then life sort of intervenes in the scheduled, you know, the things that take priorities over that. And you know, there's the coolage effect too, which is the newness makes you want to do it more.

1:31:40 Drew Got it. That's something I have to keep in mind. Bobby. Real quick one. All right, you're 17. Go ahead.

1:31:47 Caller Um, yeah, I just wanted to ask Dr. Drew how he dealt with some of the people who call in and ask questions that he answers almost every night and is so calm and cool with them.

1:31:58 Stryker How do I do that?

1:31:59 Caller Yes.

1:31:59 Drew Honestly, I'll answer. He's the guy, and I mean this in all seriousness, he's so sincere and he does care very much about everyone that calls in. He only gets frustrated when you don't say hello back or you sit there like a jackass when you're like, call her, are you there? He's just very sincere and he cares a lot and he didn't become a doctor for nothing.

1:32:17 Stryker That's my friend Stryker.

1:32:20 Drew It's true.

1:32:20 Stryker Bob, what was your point?

1:32:23 Caller Well, cause the last caller, the girl who called about the pullout method, it was something that I learned when I was in this grade.

1:32:32 Stryker But you know what? Think about this, if there's one like that, there's thousands more and it's a good thing we're talking about it cause those that didn't get it in fifth grade maybe need to get it now. So, you know what I mean? It's frustrating and it's outrageous, but well, that's our country. So there you go.

1:32:48 Caller And God bless you for helping them out.

1:32:52 Drew That did not sound sarcastic at all. Should we take a break or we go?

1:32:55 Stryker Break time.

1:32:56 Drew Is it really? Okay, we're gonna take a break. A little more Loveline right after this. Hold on.

1:32:59 Caller Okay, so I know there's nothing wrong with me. So what's up?

1:33:02 Caller So I was like you and I used to think that these datelines were totally cheesy.

1:33:05 Caller Why can't I meet anybody?

1:33:06 Caller But I tried everything else and thought, what the hell? So I called the dateline and actually met a cool guy. Believe it or not, other normal people are out there looking too.

1:33:14 Caller 877-889-DATE.

1:33:30 Drew All right, Loveline, wrapping up here. I'm Stryker for Adam. I'll be back tomorrow.

1:33:35 Stryker No, no, no, you'll be back tomorrow.

1:33:36 Drew Yeah, I'll be back tomorrow. Yeah, Adam's fishing. Dr. Drew. The Killers, thank you for dealing with me and being on Loveline for two hours.

1:33:43 Caller Thanks for having us.

1:33:44 Drew Anytime, congratulations on everything.

1:33:46 Caller Thank you.

1:33:47 Drew Keep it up. It's gonna be a good ride with the record, you guys. It's a fun record. You guys should go check out the Killer CD, Hot Fuss, and it's really good.
