1:38 Voiceover Loveline is meant for an adult audience. Loveline may contain sexually-oriented content. Listener discretion is advised.
1:47 Voiceover Adam Corolla, Dr. Drew.
1:49 Voiceover I'm not modeling anymore for the two of you.
1:52 Voiceover Loveline.
1:57 Drew I think this is your mic here, Adam, over here. Why don't you grab that? There you go.
2:01 Adam All right. Is this one not working? No, it's not working. This is where mine is normally plugged in, though, isn't it?
2:07 Drew Yeah. Nothing is normal tonight.
2:09 Adam All right. Hey, it's Loveline. I'm Adam Carolla. It's Dr. Drew. Phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1, fax number 310-8-5-4-44-55. Dr. Drew is a board certified physician, yada, yada, yada. All right. Everclear is our guest tonight. The reason we sound a little bit confused is I was just doing a little interview with Everclear that we were filming because I got a new CD coming out. And as usual, we got a little late start and we ran into the show, but that's all right. We're getting the computer booted up. I'm going to get my good mic going. Yes, there we go. My lucky, nasally mic. And we're going to start the show now. Yes, Drew.
2:51 Drew I just think I could probably call into that site on my computer.
2:55 Adam What are you talking about? Oh, we don't have the computer with the phone on it. Well, Drew, don't get weird. Just pick the monitor up. It's probably on the floor, right? We have a monitor that has all the calls banked in it. We put it down on the floor so we could conduct this interview. Oh, do I miss my chair? Don't tell me I'm going to have to sit one of these wretched Westwood 2 chairs. I did it. All right. So here's what we're going to do.
3:23 Drew Take calls.
3:24 Adam Yeah. But Drew, can you let me finish my goddamn sentence, please? Sure. Art, Craig and Greg from Everclear are all in the next room. I think what we'll do is we'll take a couple of calls and then we'll take a break and then we'll bring the guys in here and we'll get all sorted out and set up. All right.
3:40 Drew Sounds good.
3:41 Adam What do you say?
3:41 Drew Sounds good.
3:42 Adam I'm just going to start with number one up top here and speak to Peter. Peter?
3:47 Hey.
3:48 Adam Hey, you're 14. What's up?
3:49 Caller Yeah, I had some questions for Everclear on how they thought of the other.
3:53 Drew Good, Adam. Way to go. That's those reading skills. Come through again.
3:56 Adam I just pressed the number one. That's all.
3:58 Drew There you go.
3:58 Adam Hey, Peter.
3:59 Caller Yeah.
4:00 Adam Now, hold on a second, because we're getting situate and we're going to bring the band in in a minute, all right?
4:04 Caller Okay.
4:04 Adam All right, so just hang loose for a second. Stacey?
4:07 Yeah.
4:08 Adam You're 24?
4:09 Caller Yeah.
4:09 Adam Question for Everclear? No. What's up?
4:13 I keep finding myself in situations that I think probably aren't very good. Every, pretty much every weekend, I get wasted, and then I find myself with guys that I don't know.
4:24 Adam Perfectly normal, perfectly healthy.
4:26 Drew Is this always about alcohol? Is there something else going on?
4:30 No. Sometimes there's drugs involved.
4:32 Drew Okay.
4:32 Adam Yeah. And how many times you figure this has happened?
4:37 This has been ongoing pretty much for the last probably six to eight months.
4:40 Adam I see. And before that, not much going on, huh?
4:45 Not like this.
4:47 Adam I see. Anything happened? Drew, you. Anything happened to trigger this?
4:53 Drew Yeah. What's going on in your life?
4:55 I just moved out on my own about six months ago.
4:59 Caller Why?
5:02 Well, I had been living, I graduated from college and had a job, but I was living with relatives. And I moved out and got my own apartment.
5:10 Adam All right. So now you're just using it. You're spreading your ass all over it.
5:14 Drew Is there alcoholism in your family?
5:17 Not immediate, but I have some uncles who have alcohol issues.
5:21 Drew And who's alcohol issues? Were they ever doing anything to you when they were the influence of alcohol?
5:27 No.
5:28 Drew And whose brothers are these?
5:30 My mom's.
5:31 Drew And she is not an alcoholic herself?
5:33 My parents are very religious and don't, we've never had alcohol in the house.
5:38 Adam All right. You're just on a little bit of a tear. That's fine.
5:43 Drew Oh, I don't know. This is part of her addictive history.
5:45 Adam All right. Well, how about quitting the booze? And I bet if you stopped drinking, you'd stop bringing home strange men.
5:52 Drew Right?
5:54 Maybe.
5:55 Adam All right.
5:58 Drew I think you're going to feel a lot, there's a lot of Marie?
6:00 Caller Yeah?
6:01 Adam You're 15.
6:02 Caller Yeah.
6:02 Adam What's up?
6:03 Caller Um, I was, okay. I've had my period since I've been 12 years old. Yeah. And it just stopped like two months ago. I haven't had it. And what comes out during my period when it's supposed to be there is just this clear stuff and I don't know what it is.
6:19 Adam It's your soul.
6:19 Drew Do you have, are you on any medication?
6:22 Caller No, I'm not.
6:23 Adam What is that clear stuff?
6:24 Drew Uh, discharge. I guess.
6:27 Caller Okay. So that's normal?
6:28 Drew Uh, no, it's not normal to lose your period, but it's not anything to be.
6:33 Caller I mean, I've never had sex. I'm still virgin.
6:35 Drew I understand. But there are all sorts of other things. You should really see a doctor about it, just to make sure there's not something else going on. Thyroid conditions.
6:42 Caller Okay.
6:42 Drew Have you lost a lot of weight recently? Are you excessively physically active?
6:46 Caller No, but I... I don't know if this has something to do with it, but I did speed once.
6:52 Adam No.
6:53 Drew Not one time.
6:54 Caller Okay.
6:55 Adam But don't do it anyway, but this isn't it.
6:57 Caller Okay.
6:59 Adam Let me explain the vagina to the young listeners. This thing is a Rubik's Cube that no man could figure out. The old vagina, the old vagina. Everybody. I know what goes on in the old. I really like that song. So really, I swear, I'm going to get every kid in camp singing that song before I die. It really, it's a riddle that Bobby Fisher could not figure out.
7:29 Drew This is the uterus though.
7:30 Adam No one knows what goes on over there. What?
7:32 Drew This is the uterus though. This isn't the vagina per se.
7:36 Adam It isn't? It's all the vagina to me. If it ain't the ass, it's the vagina.
7:40 Drew You want me to get that anatomy book out again?
7:41 Adam No, don't get that out. I cannot masturbate after looking at that anatomy book. You know I don't like looking at it as women as people. You know how disturbing that is to me.
7:52 Drew Especially the biological part.
7:53 Adam Oh, please. No more. All right, she can go to the gynecologist.
8:00 Drew There's a whole list of things that can cause this. The more common things are medication and stress and pregnancy. Right. Then you get into hormonal problems like thyroid conditions and ovarian cysts.
8:10 Adam You're adding to the masturbatory time. Dave?
8:13 Hi.
8:13 Adam Hey, you're 15. What's up, Sparky?
8:16 Caller Yeah. I take a drug called Zoloft for depression. Yep. I want to know if that affects my ability to create pheromones.
8:29 Drew What is your plan to do with those pheromones anyway? Well, I mean, isn't it interesting how the crap in the publications that are out there affect people's thinking and concerns?
8:42 Adam Yeah. You want to know what a pheromone is for a lady? A job. A guy with a nice job. Nothing smells better than a nice, crisply minted cash.
8:54 Drew And a guy who's emotionally available, who's really, you know what I'm saying?
8:57 Adam That's right.
8:58 Drew That's it. There you go. That's it.
8:59 Caller I'm not trying to make any excuse for saying that it's like not involved.
9:03 Adam The Zoloft is not squishing some gland that creates a smell that attracts women to you.
9:09 Drew It will screw up your sex drive though, if you notice that.
9:13 Adam Well, that's neither here nor there for young Dave. Dave?
9:17 Caller Yeah?
9:17 Adam You've never been with a woman, have you?
9:19 Caller No.
9:19 Drew No. I wondered if maybe because he stopped having sexual thoughts and stuff, you're worried maybe that pheromone has got shut off too.
9:25 Adam You have sexual thoughts, don't you, Dave?
9:27 Caller Yeah.
9:28 Drew You're off the Zoloft now.
9:29 Caller No, I'm not.
9:30 Drew Okay.
9:30 Adam Okay. Dave, you're fine. You're 15.
9:33 Caller All right.
9:33 Adam That's good. You worry about whatever it is you're taking the Zoloft for, and that's your main concern.
9:38 Drew That's your pheromone.
9:39 Adam I don't worry about it. You know what a pheromone is?
9:41 Drew Yeah.
9:42 Adam What is it?
9:43 Caller It's something that you give off that's taken in through the nose that is supposed to be the base of attraction.
9:51 Drew Oh my God. It has so little to do with anything.
9:54 Adam That's what it is. I let some phartamone go on my partners earlier today. Nothing better. I love my job. I get up, walk across the room and fart right on the head of the guys I work with.
10:09 Drew You created the perfect work environment.
10:11 Adam Isn't that great?
10:11 Unacceptable.
10:12 Adam Can you imagine that?
10:14 All right.
10:15 Adam We're going to now speak to Reed, who's 17 years old. Reed?
10:21 Hi. Yeah. I called you about three months ago. I was molested by my baby suitor, and now I have to go testify against her. Wow. And because she was molesting her son. And so once I went and told on her, they found out that she was molesting her five-year-old son also.
10:43 Adam Oh, man.
10:43 I have to go testify against her, and I don't want to tell my boyfriend about my past, about what happened.
10:51 Drew Well, why does he have to know about the testimony?
10:54 I will...
10:55 Adam Tell him you got jury duty.
10:58 Drew Why does he have to know anything about what you're doing?
10:59 He doesn't.
11:00 Adam Well, how old is he?
11:02 He's 43.
11:03 Adam Oh, no, he's not.
11:05 What?
11:06 Adam Listen, listen, if he's 43, he doesn't care about your past. He cares about your ass.
11:11 Look, he wants me to move in with him and stuff.
11:14 Adam All right, hold on. I have to talk to Drew for a second.
11:16 Drew Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
11:19 Adam You know, if this was Monday, I'd kill myself. But it's Thursday and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. First off, babysitter's molesting is really a one-two punch because not only do they molest your kid, which is bad, but let me tell you the real tragedy, you give him eight bucks. You know what I mean? It's like, hey, just molest my kid, here's 20. You need a ride home? Imagine that. Okay, obviously, the molestation that Reed suffered at the hands of the babysitter did not sit well with Reed sexually.
11:55 Drew No, clearly, well, interpersonally.
11:58 Adam Reed cannot have a 43-year-old boyfriend.
12:01 Drew Oh, yes, he can.
12:01 Adam Reed?
12:02 Yeah?
12:03 Adam Is he really 43?
12:05 He's 43, all right. He's a stockbroker.
12:07 Adam I understand that Drew is older than the Hills and he's only 42.
12:11 Drew 41.
12:12 Adam Oh, yeah.
12:12 Drew Beg your pardon.
12:13 Adam How dare you?
12:14 Drew It's a numerity.
12:16 Adam The point is this guy is some kind of effed up, Reed. And I know you are, too, but we don't blame you.
12:21 Drew Where are your parents?
12:23 Well, where are my parents?
12:25 Drew Why don't they?
12:26 Actually, my dad, he's gone.
12:29 Drew What's his deal?
12:30 Well, he just up and left and I haven't seen him in a while.
12:34 Drew Did he do anything weird to you?
12:36 No, no, not at all.
12:37 Adam Reed, does this guy really want you to move in with him?
12:40 Yeah, he does.
12:42 Drew Reed is some sort of blow-up doll for him.
12:44 Adam After he gets divorced?
12:46 Drew Oh, that's not it.
12:46 Adam Oh, okay.
12:47 Well, that's different.
12:49 Drew He's a regular guy. He wants to make sure he doesn't hurt the wife or anything.
12:51 Adam Reed, and you're having sex with this guy?
12:54 Caller Yeah.
12:54 Caller Oh, my God.
12:56 Adam Reed, just out of curiosity, who's in who?
13:00 Caller What?
13:02 Drew Don't even, why?
13:03 Adam Is he behind you or are you behind him?
13:06 He's behind me.
13:07 Adam Yeah. I would have put money on that one, right?
13:11 Sometimes he likes it.
13:13 Adam Oh, Reed. Reed, Reed, Reed, this guy is a mess. This guy is a criminal.
13:21 He's a nice guy.
13:22 Adam He's a criminal. He's daddy. But listen to me, Reed, you're too effed up and too far away. But one day, and I want you to remember my words, one day in the not too distant future, God willing, you'll realize how bizarre, how screwed up, and how terribly wrong this relationship was. You know what I'm saying, Reed? There's gotta be a part of you that knows how wrong this is.
13:46 Drew Your nice guy is just, he thinks of you as a blow up doll.
13:50 Adam Yeah.
13:52 Well, what do I do about the whole testifying thing?
13:55 Adam I would go testify.
13:57 Drew That guy doesn't care. And while you're there, Talk about this guy, too.
14:00 Adam Talk about this guy.
14:01 Drew Please, just give his address and phone number and discuss what you're doing with him.
14:06 Read.
14:07 Adam Please, this guy is a criminal. I'm not just, we're not making this up. You understand?
14:12 Yeah.
14:13 Drew Well, what state he went? What state he went?
14:15 California.
14:15 Drew Yeah, he's a criminal.
14:17 Adam Listen, he's a criminal.
14:19 Drew No.
14:19 Adam I don't care if they're on the goddamn moon, he's a criminal. Sodomizing a 17-year-old that was molested by his babysitter. I wish a babysitter had felt me up, though.
14:31 Drew You know, it's interesting. I've been reading a lot lately about Greek society, and you know, they revered the classical societies. They were all built on stuff like this.
14:38 Adam Sodomy?
14:39 Drew Well, the sort of men in power sort of took great privilege in abusing kids. Yeah. And guess what those kids did when they grew up?
14:48 Adam Ran pharmacies.
14:51 Drew Great philosophy.
14:52 Adam Oh, I see. Yes, that's what I'm saying.
14:54 Drew And then abused other kids.
14:55 Adam That's right. Dean?
14:56 Yeah.
14:57 Adam You're 27.
14:58 Caller Yeah.
14:58 Adam What's up?
14:59 Caller Well, I'm not sure if my wife might be peeing on me while I go down on her.
15:04 Adam I'd go with yes.
15:07 Caller She can come like nothing else. I mean, literally two feet. It can squirt.
15:12 Drew And wait, wait, wait, one second. Two feet. Show me.
15:16 Adam Well, no, she's got orgasm for two feet. My ass is on fire because I'm sitting on a Westwood one chair and not my own throne, which I'm so sick, which I'm accustomed to here. Anderson, I'll throw this mic through the goddamn window. I'll crack you right in the head. You'll be on disability for the rest of your life. It'll be your dreams will have all come true. Yeah, right here. That's two. She could do two feet. Listen, I've peed 18 feet when I was in high school, though I had to pinch the end off and sort of throw my hips out. All right, so she has an orgasm, yeah.
15:54 Caller Yeah, and literally, I mean, I've got flowers going down on her, pulling all night or something. She can literally bring out a beach towel with this stuff. It really is a lot.
16:06 Adam All right.
16:07 Caller And so I'm wondering if it's true.
16:07 Caller Congratulations.
16:09 Caller Can a woman actually come that much?
16:11 Drew Yes, they can.
16:11 Adam They can. Yours can. You make her do it, though. Well.
16:16 Drew Enjoy.
16:17 Adam You're fine. And let me tell you, going down on a woman for two hours. Let me tell you how I log my oral sex with a woman. It's not an hour at a time. Two hours here, half hour there. It's none of that.
16:29 Drew It's a lifetime length.
16:31 Adam I do it like, you know how pilots get certified?
16:33 Drew Yeah. A thousand hours.
16:35 Adam Yeah. Except for I go with seconds. 422 seconds. And then maybe a month from now, I go down on a woman for 22 seconds. I tack that on onto the tally. 422 seconds.
16:49 Drew That's what you do.
16:50 Adam Yeah. I keep a little amicus by the side of the bed.
16:55 Drew Time behind the wheel.
16:55 Adam A little log. Yeah. When I get to 600 seconds, I got to tell you, Drew, I'm going to throw a party.
17:01 Drew And throw in the towel.
17:02 Adam That's right.
17:02 Drew Stop.
17:03 Adam Chris?
17:04 Oh, hi.
17:05 Adam Hey.
17:06 Could you wait for a second? Because I also have a question for Everclear, too.
17:11 Adam Okay.
17:12 Cool?
17:12 Adam All right. Yeah. You want us to get back to you? Okay. Yeah. We're going to bring the band in here in a second. All right.
17:18 That'll be cool. I'm going to say I love you.
17:20 Adam Hey, I love you, man. Yeah.
17:22 You're pretty cool.
17:22 Adam And not in some kind of BS buddy way. I mean, I love you.
17:26 Yeah. Pretty cool.
17:28 Adam Yeah. No, no, no. You don't understand. This isn't lip service. This isn't like, hey, loving you, buddy. Hey, loving you. I mean, I love you, man.
17:37 I think the man chose.
17:40 Adam I can't use the F word there. Hey, but Chris.
17:43 Yeah.
17:43 Adam I still love you, man.
17:45 Cool.
17:46 Adam Now, I don't think you're clear about this.
17:49 Yeah.
17:49 Adam I'm not talking about like a guy who loves his guitar, loves his surfboard, or even a pet. I'm talking about love. I'm talking about deep-seated, to the core, marrow of the bone, love. You see, usually, I want to kill Anderson 45 minutes into the show. Tonight, we're at, what are we, 16 minutes and 25 seconds?
18:12 Drew Hit us at least for half an hour or something.
18:14 Like 20 minutes.
18:15 Adam All right. Hold on a second there, Chris.
18:17 All right. Cool. I just have one comment.
18:19 Adam No.
18:20 All right. Have you guys seen boobville.com?
18:22 Adam Yes. You see? No, I haven't seen it.
18:25 That's pretty cool. All right.
18:26 Adam Hold on, Chris. All right.
18:27 Thanks.
18:28 Adam All right.
18:29 Caller All right.
18:31 Adam Chad. Yeah. What's up? You took some mushrooms?
18:35 Caller Yep. About four months ago. Since then, I've been feeling kind of funky, and I'm just curious what the negative side effects of it are.
18:43 Drew What do you mean funky? I don't know.
18:45 Caller It's like mentally, I don't know. Sometimes I just feel like I'm not with it at all.
18:50 Adam Did you trip real hard when you took them?
18:51 Caller Yeah.
18:52 Drew You did? I've never seen that side effect for mushroom, but I've seen that kind of a syndrome from essentially every hallucinogenic, and I would expect to see that from mushrooms. So here we are. Finally, I'm seeing it. That is a locked in syndrome. You will be at risk for depression for a long time to come. I suggest you see somebody about this because it does damage. It turns off the limbic system in the brain. It can be quite a serious thing.
19:15 Adam We are going to break just a minute or so early, which feels like 10 minutes early because we usually break nine minutes late. Everclear is here. We're going to bring the guys back in. We'll get all situated and we'll have all of that after this.
19:33 Caller Loveline. Be right back.
20:07 Adam Yep, it is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Fax number 310-854-4455. All right. Drew, I handed that to you so you could set it down, not so you could sniff it like a monkey. The zoo, you fool. All right, let's see. Art and Greg and Craig are all here from Everclear.
20:29 Hello.
20:30 Adam I was talking to the guys, doing a little interview before the show started. I do want to apologize to the guys because they asked me to do this a couple of weeks ago, and we had it all lined out at the last minute.
20:44 You forgot about it.
20:45 Everclear No, he blew us off for Gear Magazine because there's going to be naked chicks on the cover.
20:49 That's why.
20:51 Everclear Tell the truth. That's price.
20:52 Adam Oh, the abuse I get from everyone now. That's all I get.
20:57 Everclear He calls me up today is like, yeah, you know, this guy can come in. He has to come in from New York.
21:02 Adam All right.
21:02 Everclear And I'm like, what are you saying? You know, I'm like, I have no problem with confrontation with anybody, which is rare.
21:08 Adam Well, hey, I know. And art's great. Listen, is this part of the sobriety stuff?
21:15 Everclear Yes, it is.
21:15 Adam Oh, I hate that. It's like the hang out with stoners because I go, listen, art, here's the deal. This guy from Gear, he's only in town for the weekend. We asked him to do this. He's doing us a favor. We talked to Bob Gugioni Jr. My partners are all pissed off. I can only do it tonight. I'm going out of town with Drew to Texas. We got to shoot all day. So if it's not going to eff you up too much, could I just show up at 9 o'clock instead of 8 o'clock tonight to do the interview? And he goes, art goes, that will eff us up. OK, but it doesn't matter because I'm not going to do that to you.
21:54 Everclear And I'm like, OK, well, that's fine. But then he comes in. He cruises in somewhere around 9 10. Something like that.
22:02 Caller Leaves us waiting.
22:03 Everclear Sails in the makeup. Sails in the makeup. They have to make him beautiful for it. He's still got more makeup on than my first wife's mother.
22:13 Drew That's a lot of makeup. Andorra.
22:15 Adam Kabuki theater.
22:16 Drew Andorra.
22:19 Adam How dare you join in. The point is, I got here just a couple of moments late, but I got to make up.
22:25 Everclear And then all I wanted to talk about was how good the steak was.
22:28 Drew Something about him.
22:29 Everclear Where he went to dinner with the guy from Gare. So while we're here eating these nasty Cheetos out of your snack box back there, you're eating snake steaks at Muscle and Friends.
22:42 Adam That's true. I know. I'm getting soft. I've lost my edge, but I don't care. You know why? Because I'm going to buy a new edge. I've been telling you, Drew, this.
22:51 Everclear You will buy a new edge?
22:53 Adam That's right.
22:54 Everclear I will buy you a new edge.
22:55 Adam Well, that's what everyone should do. You know, you get popular, you make a few bucks, you lose your edge, you just go buy a new one.
23:02 Caller You can afford to do that now.
23:04 Everclear Or you take pictures. You see that picture of the Smashing Pumpkins out there on the wall? No. They're wearing dresses. The guys.
23:10 Drew All of them. Adam, this is for you.
23:12 Everclear I think that's your look, man.
23:14 Adam No, I don't. Listen, I'd go vertical stripes because I don't want to look husky. I'm a little hippie.
23:22 Drew You're fat.
23:23 Adam The CD, by the way, Everclear CD, the new CD is out July 11th. It's called Songs from an American Movie, Learning How to Smile. And again, it'll be out July 11th. And then I'm guessing some serious touring, right?
23:38 Everclear Yeah. Well, we're going to do another record.
23:41 Adam Right.
23:41 Everclear And that's going to be out in late October, early November. And then we're going to tour in November for both records and tour all next year.
23:48 Adam Okay, so the record's released on the 11th, then it's back into the studio, finished the second one up, and then it's the tour.
23:56 Everclear Exactly.
23:57 Drew Right.
23:57 Everclear After I get married and go on a honeymoon.
23:59 Drew Oh, no kidding.
24:00 Adam Where are you going?
24:00 Everclear I told you that last time.
24:02 Caller He doesn't pay attention.
24:03 Everclear Yeah, Drew doesn't.
24:04 Drew No, I thought you already were married.
24:06 Everclear I got divorced last year.
24:07 Adam So you can get married again.
24:08 Drew But I thought that was like imminent that the marriage was a year ago. We saw you, right?
24:12 Everclear Well, no, I was in here about three months ago.
24:14 Drew Remember?
24:18 Everclear No.
24:18 Drew I remember you were here. I don't remember that it was three months ago. We have this really weird time perception.
24:22 Everclear Well, I have been on the show with and without the band, probably about seven times, eight times.
24:27 Adam At least. All right, Drew, when I buy my edge, I'm going to buy you back some dignity. All right? I'm going to swing by the dignity department after I got a basket full of edge. You get a little blood there. And get you some of that. John?
24:41 Caller Yeah.
24:42 Adam You're seventeen.
24:44 Caller I have a couple of questions. The first was you and Drew. And the second question I had was for Everclear. For about six months now, I've been having sex regularly, probably like every day with my girlfriend. You know how when you see someone every day and they grow six inches in height, you don't really notice it. But when you see him six months later, you're like, wow, you grew a lot. I probably see my penis every day and my girlfriend would give me all sex from the beginning when we started going out. Lately, she's been telling me that she can't fit the amount she used to be able to in her mouth before, that now she can't fit it all in her mouth.
25:24 Drew Well, her mouth got smaller.
25:26 Adam You know how when you see your mouth every day, you don't notice it shrinking?
25:29 Everclear She's got strep throat, dude.
25:31 Adam Hey, John, yeah, you see your penis about every day?
25:35 Caller Yeah, I didn't say anything.
25:37 Adam I got a joint custody deal with my penis with my ex. I see my penis every other weekend. It's tough, but we get along. Me and the penis, we go out and have some ice cream. I go to the park.
25:48 Caller Are these supervised visits or?
25:50 Adam Yeah.
25:50 Drew Oh, yeah. Are you kidding?
25:51 Caller There's a ward.
25:52 Drew Imagine what he would do if you were left alone with his penis.
25:54 Adam There's a representative of the court there standing by.
25:56 Caller I want to know if it actually can grow due to just I guess having sex every day.
26:02 Drew It actually can. No. Yes, it can.
26:05 Adam No, please.
26:06 Drew Yes, it can. There's actually, if his age, there should be some growth anyway. 17, 21 for male, there can be growth.
26:11 Adam Right.
26:12 Caller When does it stop growing?
26:13 Drew 21? 21. Secondly, when men become sexually active, their testosterone levels start to bump up a little bit and that can add to some growth or at least bring on some growth.
26:21 Adam Yeah, but it's marginal.
26:22 Drew It's marginal.
26:23 Adam Nothing measurable.
26:23 Drew And then if she's been really doing this, she can get a temporary mandibular joint syndrome and be unable to open her mouth as wide and have sort of an arthritis in her jaw.
26:30 Adam That's what it is.
26:31 Caller The penis is also a muscle. Is that true?
26:34 Drew No.
26:35 Caller It's not a muscle?
26:35 Adam No, it doesn't grow. You can't work it out. Believe me, I've tried. I've been working on mine for years now.
26:41 Everclear I think Alice Cooper said it best that it was a muscle of love.
26:45 Adam There you go, John. Yeah. But don't put any sandbag weights on it or anything, though, and chalk it to an anvil.
26:53 Caller She told me at first, like when we first started dating, and she told me that she could fit it all in her mouth. All right.
27:02 Adam You know what I do?
27:03 Everclear Maybe she just doesn't like you as much.
27:05 Adam John, there's really only one way to do this. This is what my grandparents did with me. In the door jam of their house, there's a little pencil mark about four inches off the floor. It's Adam's Penis at 11, and then it's Adam's Penis December 1981, and then Adam's Penis in 84.
27:24 Drew That's where it finishes at four inches, right?
27:26 Adam Right. Then it peaks out at four inches and then starts heading down toward the carpet. All right, John, do you have an Everclear question?
27:33 Caller Yeah, I actually did. I heard something, I'm not sure if this is true, that your song, Everything for Everyone, I'm talking to the lead singer here. I'm sorry, I don't know the actual name.
27:43 Everclear You mean Everything to Everyone?
27:44 Caller Oh, sorry, Everything to Everyone.
27:46 Caller Is that about your father?
27:48 Everclear Nope, the song Father of Mine is about my father.
27:51 Caller Oh, okay.
27:51 Adam Yeah, it's a lot of subtext there. You have to cut through.
27:54 Everclear Makes more sense, right?
27:55 Caller Yeah, I don't really know your music. I just heard that song. I remember seeing something on MTV or something on some show about one of your songs being about your father. And I thought that was it, like talking about how your father tried to do a lot of things for you, but I guess didn't. I don't know. That's what I thought.
28:10 Adam All right, John, thank you for that well-performed question. Art uses father as a metaphor for dad. Ingenious. Christina?
28:22 Hi.
28:22 Adam You're 19, what's up?
28:24 Caller I have a question.
28:26 Adam All right.
28:26 I had a guy come on my face and I broke out in a huge rash. And I've had this before, but only with this guy did I break out in a big rash with big bumps.
28:34 Drew What have you had? You've had the rash before, but not this.
28:37 Adam No, she's had the calamine lotion before, but not the rash.
28:42 Drew But with different guys.
28:43 Adam Right.
28:44 Drew Is that right?
28:45 Adam Yeah.
28:46 Drew Suddenly I'm nauseated.
28:47 Adam Right. And how many different times have you had this before you got the rash? Not many. Okay. Because let me explain something ladies, there's nothing new boyfriends hate to hear more than that. I have had, I don't know, 50 gallons of semen on my face and nothing.
29:07 Drew No rash.
29:08 Adam No rash. 100 guys, 100 times, 100 angles, 1000 sailors, sometimes 4 or 5 guys at once, nothing. You, now I get the rash. What dumb luck.
29:21 Drew How did it go away?
29:24 It took about, I don't know, maybe it was overnight and the next morning it was still there.
29:29 Drew So can you describe it?
29:30 Probably about a day.
29:30 Drew Can you describe it to me?
29:32 Little red bumps, kind of like, I don't know, little hives, sort of. It was really bad though, all over my neck everywhere.
29:39 Everclear Interesting.
29:40 Drew Well, it's some sort of allergic reaction, I imagine. That's the only way I can describe it. That kind of an acute reaction would be an allergy.
29:46 Everclear Are you allergic to any foods or anything?
29:48 Caller No, nothing. So I wonder, like, was he eating something? Was it just him?
29:51 Drew It may have just been him. Did you have sex with the guy?
29:54 Caller Yeah.
29:54 Drew Did you have any other reaction to him?
29:57 Adam Wait a minute, Drew. She's not that kind of girl. Please, just a temerity. And all right, so you got to keep it away then, right? Now, what do you think would happen if he did this in her?
30:08 Drew That's what I was asking.
30:09 Adam Do you think that would?
30:10 Drew Well, I think they would. Would she react to it there, too?
30:12 Everclear Did it happen inside as well?
30:14 Yeah, nothing happened.
30:15 Adam Maybe something happened and you couldn't see it.
30:19 Maybe.
30:19 Drew And you don't get a rash response to anything else on your face?
30:23 Nothing else.
30:24 Drew That is very-
30:25 Oh, they had it, Everclear?
30:26 Yeah.
30:27 Drew Hi. Hi.
30:28 Everclear Was he eating a lot of asparagus before?
30:30 Caller No.
30:32 Art, I saw you in Seattle at EnFest about, I don't know, last year. Me and my friend, we held up a big sign that said, We Come For Art.
30:39 Everclear I remember that.
30:40 Yeah, and you pulled this up on stage and we danced with you. It was great.
30:43 Caller It was the best show I've ever been to.
30:44 Thanks.
30:44 Adam She had the rash, you remember.
30:46 I did.
30:48 Everclear And little did we know.
30:50 Adam You were in the bullseye hat. I remember that.
30:52 Everclear How old are you?
30:55 Adam Do you remember that?
30:56 Everclear I feel old. I'm sorry. No, I remember every show we've ever played. I scare people. Yeah.
31:02 Adam Wow.
31:02 Everclear I remember meeting you and you obviously don't because you're such a big star now.
31:06 Caller No.
31:07 Everclear Do you have a hard time with that? I met him with you, Mr. Other Big Star.
31:10 Caller You expect him to remember? No, he doesn't remember three months ago.
31:13 Everclear In Minnesota. You guys were in Minnesota.
31:15 Adam Drew wasn't in Minnesota.
31:16 Everclear Wasn't Drew in there?
31:17 Adam Now who's high?
31:19 Everclear Listen, I don't get high anymore. I just drink wheatgrass.
31:23 Adam I know, but there's a residual effects. I mean, once in a while, I think you belt you up some heroin or something.
31:28 Everclear Because the first time we went on Loveline was with Ricky Rocklin.
31:31 Drew I remember the first time at the old studio.
31:32 Everclear At the old studio.
31:33 Drew Just after the new studio had been built in the old studio. It was in Burbank. Yeah.
31:37 Adam Oh, it was just that? I built a bunch of stuff in that new studio.
31:40 Drew It was just after it had been built. Yeah.
31:42 Adam Jesus. I wish I was back doing carbon.
31:44 Everclear Yeah, don't you?
31:45 Adam Those were the days.
31:46 Everclear Yeah. I was thinking that yesterday when I was directing the video and it was all hot. There we go. Sound effects. Very good, Anderson. Thank you. We really hated being on that show. We loved you, but we hated Ricky Rachman.
32:00 Adam But you love me, right? You used to love me, right? Not so much now. Okay.
32:03 Everclear After you blow us off today, not so much.
32:06 Drew Adam is going to become difficult to deal with, isn't he?
32:09 Everclear I wanted to talk to you about that.
32:10 Adam Where's Dean Martin?
32:12 Everclear He's going to blow you off.
32:13 Drew Going to blow me. I've blown you off all the time. My favorite Adam story is him going, I'm not going to these college gigs with you anymore. I don't need it anymore. And you will appreciate how hard I work for you and all that I do for you. When you get out there without me, it will be a death for you.
32:28 Everclear Remember the old days when he used to be really happy to have this gig before he became famous?
32:34 Adam This is great. I know. Well, I'm a millionaire now. I mean, literally, literally a millionaire. And Drew said to me the other day, you keep talking about having so much money on the radio, you're not going to have any friends. And what did I say, Drew?
32:49 Drew I don't care. I'll buy new ones.
32:50 Adam I'll buy new ones. So what am I going to buy? I'm going to buy some.
32:54 Everclear I'm sorry. You can't buy that many friends with a million bucks. No, it ain't what it used to be. I've had a million bucks for a long time.
33:00 Adam Yeah, but you're shopping on the west side. I go to the Valley. Million goes a long way.
33:06 Everclear I'm shopping on the west side in Portland. It goes a lot longer.
33:09 Adam All right. Well, listen, you're too picky. I don't care who I hang out with. Peter, hey, you're 14. Here's the band.
33:18 Caller Yeah. First off, do you mind if I give a shout out to my friend?
33:21 Adam No.
33:22 Caller Okay. I just want to say hi to Tom.
33:26 Adam All right. Beautiful. You got a question for the band?
33:28 Caller What's up? I was wondering how you guys came up with the lyrics for their songs.
33:34 Everclear This is our, I write the lyrics for the songs.
33:37 Caller Yeah. They have to do with things that happened earlier in your life.
33:44 Everclear You mean are they autobiographical?
33:46 Caller Yes.
33:46 Everclear Sometimes. Sometimes they're not. Sometimes I take different things that happen to me or other people or things I've read about or thought about and make characters out of them. Sometimes there's a little reality and a lot of artistic license. But a lot of times there's our new single, we're going to play a little bit of it tonight on the radio for the first time. It's going to come out in a couple of weeks. It's a song called Wonderful and it's basically from a child's perspective of divorce and it's something I've been through as a kid, Craig's been through as a kid, Greg's lucky that he hasn't, but my daughter went through it last year. So I tried to get in touch with and keep the lyrics simple, basically from a kid's point of view and we just made a video from that point of view. So a lot of times, I'll write about things from my life that might be painful, but that I think other people can relate to.
34:35 Adam But Art, wouldn't you say that maybe more so than a lot of bands you write from personal experience?
34:41 Everclear I don't really care what other bands do. And I'm not joking. I really don't care.
34:46 Adam I don't care what they do either.
34:47 Everclear We don't really sound like anybody else.
34:49 Adam No, but I mean, your songs, I'm not saying, it doesn't matter what other bands do. Let me hand the lard over here. Now who's got the attitude? All right, come on. Bring it on.
35:00 Everclear Bring it on.
35:01 Adam What I'm saying is, I'm saying I've listened to a lot of Everclear songs and it sounds like more so than other bands. You're writing about personal experiences.
35:11 Everclear But not always. I mean, there's about two songs of record, literally.
35:14 Adam Really?
35:15 Everclear There's about two songs of record.
35:16 Adam Well, I'm reading in, I'm reading way too much into it.
35:19 Everclear I guess you are. I mean, there's different things. I mean, on the new record, which you and about three other people outside the band have heard, you know, there's more stuff on there, probably about four or five songs on that record. But still, I changed it around, you know, there's a couple, there's that song about my daughter.
35:36 Adam You got to hear this one, Drew. It is a beautiful 45 piece orchestra. It's like this melodic and flowing.
35:43 Everclear It's like we talked about today. Some people are going to hate it. Some people are going to love it.
35:47 Adam I couldn't. I could only see those who loved it and those who didn't understand it.
35:52 Everclear A CD with him?
35:53 Adam No.
35:54 Everclear So you can borrow his, but you know, he probably doesn't even know where it is.
35:58 Adam No, it's in my car.
35:58 Everclear He probably left it at some stripper's house.
36:01 Drew He will not let me touch it.
36:03 Adam Yeah, actually, I drew up a line with it and I know just where it is. I got a freeze off of it. All right. Hey, Peter? Thanks.
36:13 Caller Sure. Thank you.
36:14 Everclear Later.
36:14 Adam We're going to hear a little bit of the new stuff from Everclear. Now, we're not hearing the whole song, right?
36:21 Everclear No, no way. I don't trust you.
36:23 Adam No, no. Listen, I'll go out in the car and listen to it if I want. All right.
36:27 Everclear It's in the car.
36:29 Adam Now, what song are we hearing? I know you just said it.
36:30 Everclear This is the single. This is wonderful. You're hearing the last part of it.
36:33 Adam Here we go.
37:55 Caller Loveline, 1-800-LOVE-191, back in a minute.
37:58 Adam Well, it's worth hearing. Yeah, there we go. It is Loveline, Adam Corolla, it is Dr. Drew, Craig, Craig and Art. We're all here from Everclear. We're going to hear any more samples from the CD?
38:46 Everclear No.
38:46 Adam Okay, fair enough.
38:52 Caller One more time.
38:53 Everclear Darren, get that CD back now.
38:56 Adam No, I got one in my car. I already have duped off a million of them. eBay. That's right. All right, Drew, you ready to roll?
39:04 Everclear Let's go.
39:06 Adam Let's speak to Chris. Chris, you're 15?
39:09 Caller Yeah. Hey.
39:10 Adam Hey.
39:11 Caller I got a question for Craig. On El Distorto de Melodica, what bass effects do you use? Because I've been looking around and trying crap out, and I can't quite get that sound.
39:22 Caller It was just a Big Muff Stompbox, basically, and some Studio Trickery, right?
39:28 Everclear Yeah. I did some stuff to it when we were mixing it.
39:32 Caller What kind of bass do you play, Craig?
39:35 Caller I have a crappy Squire.
39:37 Caller Well, that might be part of the problem.
39:38 Everclear That might be part of the problem, dude. Trade out, spend 500 bucks, get a real bass.
39:43 Adam What's wrong with Squire?
39:46 Caller I had a Squire once.
39:46 Everclear Your big Billy Squire?
39:47 Adam Yeah. I don't call him Billy Squire. I just call him Squire.
39:51 Everclear Dude.
39:53 Adam I like this hair, him and Gino Vanelli. A lot of nice hair on those two cats. That's right. The band's jealous.
40:00 Everclear Did you have hair like that when you were younger? You did, didn't you?
40:03 Adam No.
40:04 Drew I can look at it.
40:05 Everclear Do you have pictures of it?
40:06 Adam Oh, yeah. Oh, man. Disaster. Now, I looked like, remember when the Brady Bunch was trying to figure out, when the guys were trying to figure out what to do with their hair when it's before the perm? Like, it was straight when they were little kids, and then when they were older teenagers, it was just sort of a perm, but there was a couple of seasons in between when they were trying to comb it over.
40:27 Drew Turned into a pair of faucets.
40:28 Adam Yeah. That's what I looked like. It was a mess.
40:31 Drew Oh, look at your hair.
40:32 Caller Oh.
40:34 Adam Brillo pad. A mess. Oh, a mess. I got to sue somebody.
40:38 Everclear Johnny Bravo?
40:39 Adam Yeah. Worse though. Really worse. Chris?
40:42 Caller Yeah.
40:43 Adam You all right?
40:43 Caller Yeah.
40:44 Adam All right. So you move up to a better base, all right?
40:46 Caller Give yourself a nice base and a bunch of stomp pedals.
40:49 Everclear Yeah, Chris, get, let's see, what do you usually play through the MXR, was it, at that time?
40:55 Caller MXR or Big Muff and get yourself a nice chorus pedal.
40:58 Everclear And a chorus pedal and just push the chorus so that it just sounds psychotic.
41:02 Drew Is that it?
41:02 Everclear But then push the, you know, just try a bunch of stuff. Forget about what he sounds like. Just try to make it sound cool for you.
41:09 Drew Is that it, Chris?
41:11 Caller All right.
41:11 Drew Was there something else, Chris?
41:13 Caller What?
41:13 Drew Was there something else?
41:14 Everclear Do you have hair on your penis, Chris?
41:16 Drew Oh, no.
41:16 Caller I just like made it up.
41:17 Adam I see.
41:18 Caller Talk to you guys.
41:18 Caller All right.
41:19 Adam Fair enough.
41:20 Drew He was the hair on the penis guy. He was.
41:22 Adam We've been had. That's fine. It's a way to go. Hair on the penis. Shelly?
41:27 Caller Yeah?
41:28 Adam You're 19.
41:29 Caller Yeah.
41:29 Adam What's up?
41:30 Caller Okay. My boyfriend, he just had a rash appeared on his penis, and it's been there for like about a week.
41:40 Drew What does it look like? What do you mean rash?
41:43 Caller Just like a red bump on his penis.
41:45 Drew Are they like blisters?
41:47 Caller No. No. No blisters.
41:50 Drew Do they ulcerate at all?
41:51 Caller No.
41:51 They're just like little bumps.
41:54 Drew Red bumps.
41:55 Caller Yeah.
41:55 Drew They itch or hurt? Burn?
41:56 Caller He said that they itch.
41:59 Drew He got to be seen by somebody because it's sort of anything that burns and is red and bumpy is herpes until proven otherwise.
42:04 Adam Yeah. But she said it didn't burn. It just itched. It's not ulcerated.
42:11 Drew Yeast is red, not bumps, and it usually doesn't hurt, burn.
42:14 Adam Have you seen it, Shelly?
42:15 Caller Yeah.
42:16 Adam What does it look like?
42:17 Caller It's just like little bite marks or something. Just little itty bitty bumps around his own penis.
42:23 Drew Bite marks?
42:24 Caller Like just bump.
42:25 Adam Yeah, like a spider.
42:27 Everclear Like pimples?
42:28 Caller No, not like that.
42:30 Adam All right. Hey, Shelly.
42:31 Drew Somebody's got to look at that.
42:32 Adam Do you suspect that you may have a venereal disease?
42:35 Caller What's that?
42:36 Drew Oh, boy. STD?
42:37 Caller Oh, no, no, because we've been doing this for like about a year and it just happened a week ago and he hasn't been around with anybody else.
42:45 Drew You haven't had any cold sores or anything like that in your mouth?
42:47 Caller No.
42:48 Caller All right.
42:49 Adam Hey, Shelly?
42:50 Caller Yeah?
42:51 Adam You never heard of a venereal disease? VV?
42:55 Caller Oh.
42:56 Adam Yeah.
42:56 Drew No, you guys were old.
42:58 Adam Are we? Yeah. I thought that-
43:00 Drew I love that.
43:00 Adam Is it-
43:01 Everclear They don't call it venereal disease. Is it called STD?
43:03 Drew STD is sexually transmitted disease.
43:05 Adam Wow. All right, Shelly.
43:07 Drew Venereal disease sounds something like awful.
43:08 Adam All right. Take care. You're good.
43:10 Okay.
43:11 Adam Well, so should he take his penis in and have it looked at?
43:13 Drew Put it up.
43:14 Caller Yeah.
43:15 Drew Put it up on the rack.
43:16 Put it up on the rack.
43:18 Adam DJ? I mean, DJ? There's a little difference there. DJ?
43:23 Caller Yeah.
43:23 Adam You're 19. What's up?
43:24 Everclear How you doing?
43:25 Caller Good. I was just curious. I heard that when you drink something, like if a guy drinks pineapple juice and then he comes, it's supposed to taste like a pineapple juice to the girl.
43:33 Adam Yeah.
43:33 Caller So when I go down to my girlfriend.
43:35 Adam Yeah. It's like a penis colada. It's great.
43:38 Drew And it doesn't, by the way.
43:39 Adam It's fantastic. You drink a half gallon of Meyers Dark Rum. You drink two quarts of pineapple juice and a pint of coconut juice. You jump up and down.
43:50 Drew Shake lightly.
43:51 Adam Shake lightly. And then I'll drink, I'll usually pack like a half sack of crushed ice around the groin. I don't eat the crushed ice. I'll pack my penis in crushed ice. And then I'll grab the tumblers and let the party begin. Get out the limbo stick.
44:09 Caller I'll be sure to invite you to my next party.
44:11 Adam Yeah.
44:12 Drew People are reading that crap in Cosmo and other BS magazines. Give me a break, please. Yeah. Think about trying to make other things that come out of your body taste good or smell good.
44:21 Adam Yeah. Eat 15 Abba's Abbas and then see how your poo tastes. Yummy.
44:28 Drew There's a more direct connection there, by the way. A much more direct connection.
44:32 Adam Yes. Okay. That is a very valid point you help me bring up here, Drew, which is what you eat comes right out of your ass.
44:40 Drew Yeah, that's right.
44:41 Adam That's right. And it's still ruined.
44:42 Drew No matter what. No matter what.
44:44 Adam I could eat a tub of Cool Whip and just maraschino cherries and it would still come out like the most rancid crap you've ever seen, right?
44:56 Adam It would be my poo. I mean, no matter whatever your favorite food is, eat 10 pounds of it and you're going to convert that into 9 pounds of just crap. So why is a cup of pineapple juice going to convert your normally salty, acidic, crappy tasting semen into some sort of nectar of the gods?
45:15 Drew Is it going to change your blood? If you taste somebody's blood who's done that, is it going to change their blood?
45:19 Everclear I've heard women say that guys who smoke a lot of pot and drink beer a lot have very bitter cumps. So would that have anything to do with it? Would that THC come through? Or all the salt in the beer?
45:32 Adam How about it, Drew?
45:33 Everclear I mean, if the negative aspect, and I've heard that my whole life, why wouldn't the reverse be true?
45:40 Adam Well, what about when people talk about vegetarians and guys going down on that? But, you know, I just wonder how much of that is just hearsay.
45:50 Drew We actually, in the early days of Loveline, did a blinded study.
45:54 Adam I listened to that show.
45:55 Drew Remember that?
45:56 Adam Yeah, I absolutely do.
45:57 Drew Well, you had someone in, and they could not tell. No way. Not even close.
46:01 Everclear Someone in the studio?
46:02 Adam No, it was a bunch of people called in.
46:04 Drew And we had somebody in the studio, we had a bunch of people on the phone. Right.
46:09 Everclear Who's supplying the samples in the studio?
46:11 Drew Various callers.
46:12 Adam Yeah. There were couples.
46:14 Drew Yeah.
46:15 Adam And was there a blind, you know, was there a placebo group or something?
46:19 Drew Right.
46:19 Adam And the other group just drank a bunch of pineapple.
46:22 Drew Exactly.
46:23 Adam But, Drew, you were the final judge, right? You put the blindfold on, you had the little, you had the little caps of semen.
46:30 Drew I had 7Up, Pepsi.
46:33 Adam You had a little sorbet to cleanse your palate in between each shot of the stranger semen, right?
46:39 Everclear Didn't he have the big spit thing like the wine taste thing?
46:41 Adam Yeah, coffee. Coffee taste. Yes, he spit it into the thing.
46:44 Everclear You know, I gotta say, I don't know what's scarier or funnier than you saying Abba Zaba or Drew saying poo. I don't know what was cracking me up more. Greg, what do you think?
46:57 Caller I'd have to go with Dr. Drew.
46:58 Adam Yeah, I gotta go with poo.
46:59 Everclear Craig, I don't know, Abba Zaba was pretty good.
47:01 Caller Abba Zaba was pretty good.
47:03 Everclear I don't even think they make Abba Zaba. It really dates you, dude.
47:06 Drew Of course they make Abba Zaba.
47:07 Everclear No, they don't.
47:08 Adam I don't think they do.
47:09 Everclear They do not.
47:09 Caller They do, I've seen them.
47:10 Drew Those were great.
47:11 Everclear They were great.
47:12 Caller They're not what they used to be.
47:13 Drew Bring it back, a new campaign.
47:14 Adam Bring back the Abba and this Abba.
47:17 Everclear And wash it down with some T-Berry gum.
47:19 Adam I don't, oh yes, I do remember that. Oh my God.
47:22 Everclear Beeman's, T-Berry and Blackjack.
47:24 Adam We'll put our, oh Blackjack, we'll put our PF flyers on. We'll head down to the liquor store and get ourselves some Blackjack. Oh, it didn't, wasn't Blackjack like Super Grape or Super?
47:35 Everclear No, it's licorice, dude.
47:37 Adam Well wait a minute, what was the, all right. What was the one that was like sour? It was a grape gum that was in a pack and it was real sour but it was like sour grape. And I'm trying to think of which one it was. No, it was before that.
47:51 Drew What was the one that was like striped? All right, all right.
47:53 Everclear Yeah, no, Fruit Stripe.
47:55 Adam That's juicy.
47:55 Everclear That came back, that's good. And it holds flavor for about all of six seconds.
48:00 Adam That's right. What animal represented that?
48:02 Everclear The zebra.
48:03 Adam All right, all right. Everyone's a genius. We're going to take ourselves a little break. We'll be back talking about more confections of past with your friends and ours, Everclear.
48:17 Caller This is Love Line, 1-800-LOVE-191. Oh, we'll be right back.
48:56 Adam It's Love Line. We're going to take a quick 10-second timeout, and we'll be back with more of the program in just 10 seconds.
49:04 Caller This is Love Line on Radio Station.
49:19 Adam It's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. This is Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1. Art, Greg, and Craig are all here from Everclear. Songs from an American movie, Learning How to Smile is the name of the new CD, which is not out yet. July 11th is when it will come out, but the guys are here tonight, not only plugging that, but doing a little video with us. And also, they'll have a follow up to that CD, which will be out in, well, when is that coming? It's coming out this year. The tour starts in November, so that will come out in?
49:55 Everclear Probably November. That's going to be volume two of Songs from an American Movie, Good Time for a Bad Attitude.
50:02 Adam Which is, again, the follow up to the one out on July 11th. And now, when is, when are we going to hear that hit in the radio, though?
50:10 Everclear That song on the radio, it goes to radio middle of May.
50:15 Adam And is that, is that the norm? I mean, about three weeks or four weeks before the records released?
50:20 Everclear Eight weeks, July 11th.
50:23 Adam Oh, July, yeah, that was in June.
50:25 Everclear Yeah, anywhere from six to eight weeks.
50:27 Adam Yeah, all right. Well, we'll play it over here.
50:32 Everclear It's good to have friends.
50:35 Adam Miranda?
50:36 Yeah.
50:36 Adam You're 19.
50:37 Caller I'm 19.
50:37 Adam What's up?
50:39 Caller I actually have a question for Dr. Drew. I was molested at the age of 19 months old, and I was raped at the age of 10 to 11.
50:50 Drew Do you remember the 19-month-old incident?
50:52 Caller No, I was told, but I do remember 11 to 10. I was wondering if that could affect me being able to get pregnant. I've had unprotected sex. You know how it's supposed to be like 72 hours after your period, you can get pregnant?
51:07 Drew No, no, no, no, no.
51:08 Caller Well, I've heard.
51:09 Drew No, that's not your peak time for fertility, OK?
51:13 Caller OK.
51:14 Drew It's a day. It's 24 hours after ovulation, which is mid-cycle, around 18 days.
51:19 Caller OK. So I was wondering if that could affect me being able to get pregnant.
51:23 Drew Yeah. First, the fact that you were exposed to somebody young age, God knows maybe there was an infection or something that went missed. You had symptoms nobody paid attention to because they assumed you weren't sexually active. So they put you at risk of things.
51:33 Adam Who did this to you?
51:34 Drew Her brother.
51:34 Caller Yeah, my father and my brother.
51:37 Adam Oh boy.
51:37 Drew But here's the bigger question.
51:40 Adam Who was first?
51:41 Caller My father.
51:43 Drew Where's the nanowheels went through this a couple of minutes ago?
51:45 Adam Did she say her father did it first and then her brother did it?
51:47 Caller Yeah.
51:48 Adam I don't know. You know, I got to be honest. I'm exceptionally tired and I hate hearing these stories and I think I try to like tune them out or something. I just hear jingle bells and I picture like a snow globe or something whenever I hear the word rape or molestation anymore.
52:04 Drew But the bigger problem is why get pregnant at your age? My God. Why not use protection when you're actually having it?
52:12 Caller Yeah. I'm on birth control now. I don't want to get pregnant. I mean, I was just wanting it can affect me later in life when I want to have children.
52:19 Drew If you have had normal, are you having pelvic exams regularly?
52:22 Caller Yeah.
52:23 Drew All right. Those have been normal?
52:25 Caller Huh?
52:26 Drew Those have been normal? Yeah.
52:27 Caller They've been normal.
52:28 Adam Have you gotten some counseling?
52:30 Drew Yeah.
52:32 Adam You sound all right for someone who's been through what you've been through.
52:36 Caller Yeah. It's amazing.
52:38 Adam Yeah. Where's your dad now?
52:41 Caller Let's see. He's in Missouri. I haven't seen him for about two years.
52:47 Adam Your brother, how's he doing?
52:49 Caller My brother was on the run for a while. He's in jail now for what he did to me. He also did it to other family members, but he's in jail for it now.
52:58 Everclear How old were you when this happened?
53:01 Caller He started at the age of 10 to 11. I didn't tell him until I was 12.
53:06 Adam And how much older is he than you?
53:10 Caller He's 23.
53:11 Everclear How old are you? You're 19?
53:12 Caller I'm 19.
53:13 Drew He's four years older.
53:14 Adam Oh, boy.
53:15 Everclear So you put your brother in jail?
53:17 Caller Yeah.
53:18 Everclear Good for you.
53:19 Adam Yeah.
53:20 Everclear Good for you.
53:21 Drew That's how you break that cycle of victimization.
53:23 Everclear That's exactly how you break it. Any kind of cycle, you have to stand up.
53:28 Drew Step up.
53:29 Everclear Hello. Hello. Mom.
53:33 Adam All right, Mariana.
53:35 Drew All right, but don't worry about your fertility right now. There's nothing you've told me that leads me to believe that you necessarily should be concerned about that, okay?
53:41 Caller I mean, he also gave me an STD, and that was cleared up.
53:45 Drew What was it?
53:47 What was it?
53:48 Drew Chlamydia?
53:49 Caller It was chlamydia.
53:50 Drew All right, well, that can affect your fertility.
53:52 Caller Yeah.
53:53 Drew So, if anything, your tube function can be affected by that. So, that's something to look into. If you, in the future, when you're actually trying to get pregnant and have problems for more than, say, 6 to 12 months, then you get something called a hystereous alpingogram where they light up the tubes and look at them, see if they're working, okay?
54:09 Adam It has a neon effect. Miranda? All right. Your brother gave you the STD?
54:14 Caller Yes.
54:15 Adam Oh, boy.
54:15 Everclear How long did you have it before you found out?
54:20 Caller I don't know. When I had the rape screen, that's when I found out.
54:25 Drew Which was a year into it. So it might have been for a while she had it.
54:29 Adam All right, Miranda. You're doing good.
54:31 Drew Keep up the good work.
54:33 Adam Don't get pregnant.
54:34 Caller Oh, I don't plan to.
54:36 Adam If you talk to your dad, tell him I'll see him in hell, okay? Okay. All righty. Take care. Oh, I can't. I know. You know, it's like to me guys like that need to be destroyed because there's just no greater example of you being effed up than you doing that to your daughter.
54:54 Everclear Yeah, but you guys hear this all the time, don't you?
54:56 Adam Yeah, we do.
54:56 Everclear I mean, this is so prevalent, but it's not anything new. It's just people are talking about it.
55:02 Drew No, it's more for a couple of reasons.
55:04 Adam Well, it's not that it didn't happen.
55:07 Drew No, it's more.
55:07 Everclear And it was happening back when, I don't want to name names. I mean, I've heard it from people who were in their 70s or 80s.
55:15 Drew Absolutely, it's been happening for a long time. But the thing about it is that people who do that will go do that to other children when they're children and then do it to children when they're adults. And so every time it happens to one person, it affects a hundred others.
55:26 Everclear No, I know.
55:26 Drew And so it has growth built into it.
55:30 Adam It grows.
55:30 Drew And in a culture that lets it grow like this one right now, it's just going wildfire.
55:35 Adam That's right. We're all moving to Canada. Actually, I'm just going to go live in Art's basement studio if that's cool.
55:42 Everclear There's a nice couch down there. Do you like a futon?
55:45 Adam Oh, a futon. Let me tell you something. I've slept on a futon for like four years when I moved out of the house. And futon, for those of you who don't know what a futon is, it's the world's most uncomfortable sofa that folds out in the world's most uncomfortable bed. Somehow they've done it. This, I'm convinced that the futon is the Japanese paying us back for World War II. It's like, this is what we get for Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
56:11 Drew Is crappy pillow laid on cement.
56:13 Adam Right. No, futon, no, I looked it up once in a Japanese American dictionary. It means bear trap in Japanese. Yes, they're laughing their asses off over there. They buy futon, fool. They call it the futon over there. There's no one in Japan uses one. They just export them here and laugh like hyenas. Oh, I hate those things. Really, Art, you gotta do better in a futon.
56:36 Everclear I like the futon, man.
56:37 Adam No.
56:38 Everclear Yeah, it's good for my back.
56:39 Adam You're just trying to keep it real.
56:41 Drew They have, the futon is advanced.
56:43 Everclear No.
56:43 Drew Futon's of today are not the futon of yore.
56:44 Everclear No, man, see, your futon was basically a big, you know.
56:48 Adam Mine was like a big pillow that folded.
56:49 Everclear Nasty pillow, probably that had beer stains and other stains all over it.
56:53 Adam That wasn't beer. It got to a certain point where I couldn't unfold it. I had to use a pry bar to get the thing apart. No, my parents, my family was so cheap, they bought me this futon, but it was like a knockoff futon. You know, it wasn't a real futon.
57:07 Everclear How big was your apartment, though? What were you gonna do, get a bean bag?
57:10 Drew It was a garage.
57:10 Adam I had a, I lived in a garage, but when I moved out, I had a one-bedroom apartment in North Hollywood on Laurel Canyon. I lived with three guys. Oh, it was good times.
57:20 Drew In a studio, three guys in a studio.
57:22 Adam Well, we had a bedroom, but me and the Wee slept on the futon. It wasn't a good time in my life.
57:29 Drew You and Wee is together in one futon?
57:30 Adam Yes. We doubled down on a futon.
57:33 Drew Oh my God, the humanity.
57:35 Everclear Was your haircut, was that same haircut around at that time?
57:38 Adam I was sporting by then, I was sporting the Mr. Brady perm look, you know, basically what I got now, but a little bigger.
57:45 Everclear Little bit of the schlong going on, little shirt on top, little long in the back?
57:50 Adam No, I didn't have the mullet, but I did have a little of that, remember the romantics, little bit short on the side, little puffy, little New Jersey look.
57:59 Everclear You never had a mullet?
58:01 Adam No, I didn't have a mullet because my hair wouldn't do the mullet, it wouldn't fall down in the back.
58:05 Everclear Drew, did you have a mullet?
58:06 Drew No, I never did.
58:07 Everclear Never? God, I hate that.
58:09 Adam But Drew has some pretty horrible...
58:10 Everclear We had the mullet.
58:11 Adam Oh really?
58:12 Everclear Did you ever have a mullet?
58:13 Drew No, I did much worse than you guys.
58:14 Caller I must admit I had a little bit of one, yes.
58:16 Everclear Did you have a mullet?
58:18 Adam Yeah. Yeah, he asked the camera man. I never had the mullet. I had a little of that Lord of the Dance kind of flatly kind of look, kind of poofy on top.
58:29 Everclear Did you have the Loverboy headband?
58:32 Adam I wore a thin headband, yeah, sure, and a members only jacket with the sleeves cut off. It was a choice I made. I stand by it.
58:40 Everclear Parachute pants?
58:41 Adam No, I would have gone down that road, but I didn't have any money, so I couldn't... They were expensive. Yeah, those parachute pants weren't free, you know. Ron?
58:50 Caller Yeah?
58:51 Adam You're 18.
58:52 Caller Yeah.
58:52 Adam What's up?
58:53 Caller My question was, every time I jack off, my penis gets really, really sore.
58:59 Caller Where?
59:00 Caller I don't know if it's the urethra or what, but it just hurts.
59:04 Drew Inside?
59:05 Caller Yeah, in it.
59:06 Drew It's not at the tip, it doesn't burn when you urinate.
59:10 Caller It did when I, after like a couple of times when I urinated after, it burned pretty bad, but after that, I didn't really do it.
59:16 Drew Anything else going on, anything?
59:19 Caller No.
59:19 Drew Anything to the testes or anything like that?
59:20 Everclear Are you circumcised?
59:22 Caller Not quite.
59:23 Drew How long does, are you real?
59:25 Adam Not quite.
59:26 Caller They missed.
59:27 Adam Lazy moil.
59:30 Everclear You're not circumcised or you are circumcised?
59:32 Caller No, I'm not.
59:33 Everclear Okay, well then it's probably that you're stretching that skin.
59:37 Drew Well that wouldn't make it, it would hurt when he urinates and.
59:40 Caller No, yeah.
59:41 Adam But maybe if he's irritated it and the urine gets on that part, it stings.
59:46 Drew Maybe he's gripping it to our, you're saying it's like you're peeing fire, right?
59:49 Caller Yeah, basically that's what it feels like.
59:51 Drew Inside. You guys never had that?
59:53 Adam No. Tell us about it, Drew.
59:55 Everclear If we had it, we would never admit to it.
59:58 Adam Now, so what is that? Sexually transmitted disease?
1:00:00 Drew No, it's urethritis. It's just inflammation urethritis. And that can be just from mechanical irritation, maybe some cream or soap he's using is irritating it. Maybe it's a prostate infection or inflammation. But it's something you ought to discuss with the doctor because it's something that's best treated because it can get an epididymitis and other things that can bother you.
1:00:17 Everclear That's fun.
1:00:18 Drew That's something that Art would never admit either.
1:00:20 Everclear No, I had to the epididymitis. That freaked me out when I was like 22.
1:00:24 Adam What is that?
1:00:25 Everclear That's when you get blood in your semen.
1:00:27 Adam Oh, yeah, that's rough.
1:00:28 Everclear Because it's an infection. And it's really fun on a date. You break that out and it's like, there's blood. I'm not on my period. It's coming out of you. But that was back in the drug days. It's good now.
1:00:42 Adam That's great. Yeah, it's like, there's a thousand island on the sheet, honey.
1:00:49 Caller Who's been eating salad?
1:00:50 Adam Oh, man.
1:00:52 Caller Yeah.
1:00:53 Adam Yep, I stick with the ranch, right, Drew?
1:00:55 Everclear It was more like that kind of blue cheese.
1:00:57 Adam Occasionally, I get the chunky blue cheese in there. Never can figure that one out. That's always a surprise.
1:01:03 Everclear Zesty cocktail sauce.
1:01:06 Adam Oh, man. Oh, man. Now, did that send you running for the doctor? Because I'd be airlifted out of the bedroom.
1:01:12 Everclear Man, I was 20 years old. I was so wasted. I didn't really know what the hell I was doing. I was on drugs.
1:01:17 Adam And so how do you clear that up?
1:01:20 Drew Well, infection, typically, you just take an antibiotic for a couple of weeks. But sometimes epitomizes can be true with anti-inflammatories too.
1:01:27 Everclear Yeah, you get a good buzz off those, dude. Todd?
1:01:31 Drew Todd's sleeping.
1:01:31 Everclear Todd's sleeping. Go to a girl.
1:01:33 Drew Wait, wait, listen. Todd?
1:01:37 Everclear Todd's listening to the radio.
1:01:39 Adam Oh, I thought he was sleeping. Todd, you're 20. What's up?
1:01:42 Caller Hey, I just want to have a question for the doc, and then I have some questions for Everclear, dude. First of all, doc, I'm always wondering, does marijuana affect fertility?
1:01:51 Drew It can, and people smoke a lot of it. It can reduce sperm count, increase estrogen levels, and it doesn't necessarily do that, but it could affect it.
1:02:01 Caller I just had a couple of questions for Everclear. I just want to say I am your biggest fan here in San Diego, California. You guys rock. I own all your CDs. Art, I love you, man.
1:02:09 Caller You're awesome, dude.
1:02:11 Caller You're a big inspiration to me, and I think your music rocks. Hope to see you in San Diego.
1:02:16 Caller I love the new single, and take care.
1:02:19 Caller Happy belated birthday to Art and Greg.
1:02:22 Caller Thank you.
1:02:22 Everclear Wow, it's a real fan.
1:02:24 Caller That is a real fan.
1:02:26 Everclear When they know Greg's birthday, we know the real fan.
1:02:29 Caller What?
1:02:29 Caller I had a birthday?
1:02:30 Adam Yeah, you did, man.
1:02:32 Caller 30 years old.
1:02:32 Everclear Don't tell him.
1:02:33 Caller Oh, you're 30.
1:02:35 Oh, no.
1:02:37 Adam Hey, Todd?
1:02:38 Caller Yeah.
1:02:39 Adam You're going to get the CD?
1:02:41 Caller Am I going to get the CD? I'm going to be the first one in line to get that CD.
1:02:44 Caller Good.
1:02:44 Adam That'll be out the 11th of July.
1:02:46 Caller Cool.
1:02:47 Adam All right.
1:02:47 Caller We'll see you in San Diego.
1:02:49 Adam You guys, when you go out on tour in November, you get by San Diego, right?
1:02:53 Caller We always have great shows in San Diego.
1:02:54 Everclear Always good shows.
1:02:55 Adam It's kind of a, I know this sounds cliche, but they seem eager to party in San Diego.
1:03:01 Everclear They are, man. When I lived up here back long time ago, I used to have a girlfriend in San Diego and I go down there. Had one in Santa Barbara too, which is another party town.
1:03:16 Adam Oh, boy. Oh, boy. We got, Drew and I did one of these college, we did the UC Santa Barbara, like was it three months ago?
1:03:25 Everclear Have you been to Isla Vista when school is in session? It's insane.
1:03:29 Adam Let me tell you something. I've been down there for Halloween on a few occasions when they block off the streets and they just turn the whole place. It's like, it's really, it's a Sodom and Gomorrah over there.
1:03:41 Everclear Man, they block off the streets every weekend when school is in session. It's insane.
1:03:46 Adam I was down there three months ago. I'm such an idiot, but we decided, I mean, here's what happened. Drew and I went down there. Okay, here's what happened. The Man Show was going to do one of our famous rider retreats, where we get a van, we get a bunch of beer, we get all the riders and all the guys are like 10 guys, and we head out and go smoke pot and drink beer and have a good time. In years past, we'd bring laptop computers and pens and stuff. This year, we said, f it. We don't get anything done, we're just bringing more beer. So we went out there and we decided to go to Santa Barbara because Drew and I were doing a lecture that weekend, and we decided to just make a party out of it. So we all went out there, we stayed there. The guys all came to the lecture and heckled us. Then when we were done, someone had the bright idea about going into Isla Vista, going to one of these houses and hitting a party. Let's just have a good time. We pulled this long stretch van into the street. Me and Jimmy got out of the van and it was like, hey, it's Man Show, guys. It's Man Show. We got back in the van. Before you know it, the van was surrounded by hundreds of crazed college kids and they're rocking it, and they're throwing beer bottles at it. It was like a weird scene, like I had a burning tire thrown on me. It was wild and it was funny. Everyone in the van, the thing that was funny is, you know what it's like trying to back out one of those super extendo vans on a dead end street that's just the size of a surface street? It's just like a small residential street and you got to do like a 15 point turn to get the thing turned around. And meanwhile you're surrounded the entire time by drunken people. So for the first like five minutes, I'm telling the driver, right, three o'clock, easy, easy, easy, but after like 15 minutes of those drunken kids, I got my hand out the way I'm trying to punch anything that moves. And I'm yelling at the driver, floor it, just floor it, floor it, we'll mow them down like corn. Just go, baby. So yeah, I know that. In San Diego, I used to go there and go to Tijuana and then just go hang out with my friends who went to San Diego State and the dorms. And that is a mess over there.
1:05:57 Drew I spoke to the University of San Diego, which is a beautiful college on the hill. I don't know how they get anything done.
1:06:02 Adam They don't, are you kidding? They go to Tijuana?
1:06:04 Everclear The University of San Diego is a little bit more scholastic. San Diego State is just a plum.
1:06:09 Drew That and then UNLV, how would you do with that?
1:06:13 Adam You're going down to slots of fun and eating 50 cent jumbo dogs and Heineken's. You know what I mean? No way. No way you're taking every cent you get for books and tuition, you're gambling it away. I mean, it's just no way. Could you imagine?
1:06:28 Everclear You get a good degree in hotel management there.
1:06:30 Caller I'm kidding.
1:06:32 Adam Art, seriously, could you picture yourself at the 19th in Isla Vista? In Isla Vista.
1:06:38 Everclear Man, I was 20 driving up to Isla Vista and it was just like this thing is like I had a girlfriend up there and I go up there basically for sex. So I go up there for the weekends. It was like I lived in Santa Monica. I drive, what is it about? Fifty miles, something like that. Six miles.
1:06:52 Drew Ladies take notes. Something like that. This is what motivates guys to do this thing.
1:06:56 Everclear Then we break up and I hook up with her friend. I drive up and spend the same, spend a night in the room next door. No, she break up with me and go out with someone. It's like Sodom and Gomorrah there.
1:07:07 Adam Yeah, it really is.
1:07:08 Everclear People have no morals, people have no limits.
1:07:12 Adam No scruples, no dignity whatsoever.
1:07:14 Everclear It's wonderful.
1:07:15 Adam Listen, I have friends that went to Santa Barbara to go to college, and that was 16 years ago. They've never come back.
1:07:23 Everclear Yeah, this was about then.
1:07:24 Adam They went out, they had a good time, and they just said, f it, I'm gonna work at a surf shop, and I'm never coming back, and they're just living there now. So the point is...
1:07:33 Drew And we're jealous.
1:07:35 Adam Listen, send your kids to Ithaca.
1:07:38 Everclear Fresno, Fresno State.
1:07:40 Drew No, think snow.
1:07:41 Adam You gotta think snow. You gotta think like Syracuse, Ithaca. Where'd we go?
1:07:46 Everclear Rochester.
1:07:47 Adam Northern, Northern Illinois. What are some of those places? DeKalb, Illinois. Oh man, those kids are beaten over there.
1:07:56 Everclear Northern Michigan University.
1:07:58 Adam Yeah, good.
1:07:58 Everclear That's up there in the UP.
1:08:00 Drew Yeah, Upper Peninsula.
1:08:02 Adam Wait, I got the camper. Here we go. Oswego. That's upstate New York. It's near Ithaca.
1:08:08 Drew Did we go?
1:08:09 Adam We drove through it.
1:08:10 Everclear I think we played at that school. We played at that school.
1:08:14 Adam That your kids get a serious... The girls may go lesbian, but they'll get a serious education up there. Chris?
1:08:20 Caller Yeah?
1:08:21 Adam You're 17. What's up?
1:08:23 Caller Yeah, I've been smoking for like five years.
1:08:26 Drew Smoking cigarettes?
1:08:27 Caller Yeah.
1:08:27 Drew Since you were 12.
1:08:29 Caller I've recently developed like a sore throat, but I've had it for a few days and I was wondering if it like could be cancerous.
1:08:37 Adam Most likely, yes.
1:08:39 Drew Yeah. Don't you think you could develop a sore throat like anybody else?
1:08:42 Caller Well, I've had it for so long and...
1:08:44 Drew How long have you had it for? You said a couple of days.
1:08:46 Caller Like about four or five days.
1:08:48 Drew Well, when you're smoking, it tends to perpetuate those things.
1:08:52 Adam Yeah.
1:08:52 Drew A cancer at your age would be extraordinarily rare from cigarettes. You will get it if you keep smoking, but not at 17. And you ought to see somebody about the sore throat.
1:09:02 Adam Art, Art was saying, tell me before the show, you had throat surgery.
1:09:08 Everclear Yeah, I had throat surgery last year for my vocal cords. I had notes. I had a lot of stuff on there. The pathologist, the guy who actually looked at the tissue after they sliced it all off said he's never seen that much bad flesh. Yeah, I had a cyst. I had a bunch of calluses. I had three nodes. And a really great doctor here in town, Dr. Schnittman, took care of me.
1:09:32 Adam And how do they get at it? They just go right down your mouth or cut into you?
1:09:35 Everclear It was funny. It was the first time that I had had anything like a drug in like 15 years. You know, because the anesthetic, right? And they put the thing in my arm. It really creeped me out because, I mean, it took me back to the day, right? I hadn't done it. And I was sitting there and the guy's like, okay, usually people pass out around 98, 97. And I was like, 23, 82, 81. And I'm like, just buzzing. I look at the guy and I go, 80? Bye bye. It was like I woke up and my mom was there and my, you know, I came out of the anesthetic and one eye was going in one direction and the other was going in another direction. And she hadn't seen me look like that in like about 15 years. She started crying, but it helped a lot.
1:10:24 Adam Did you miss it? I mean, I love that.
1:10:27 Drew Did it trigger anything?
1:10:28 Everclear No, no, it just was, it was what it was. I was really afraid of it actually.
1:10:33 Drew You didn't get any opiates, so they just gave you the sleeping. Yeah.
1:10:38 Everclear No, no, they didn't give me anything. I didn't take any painkillers. I took, they tried to give them to me. I just took a Tylenol. Sure.
1:10:47 Caller Why are you holding, man?
1:10:49 Adam Yeah, man, come on, bro.
1:10:51 Caller I don't got a problem.
1:10:53 Caller Right, Drew?
1:10:54 Adam I did go on score yesterday though.
1:10:56 Drew I know you did.
1:10:56 Adam Yeah.
1:10:57 Everclear Cool.
1:10:57 Adam Drew got me some good sleeping pills.
1:10:59 Everclear No one can get to drugs like a doctor.
1:11:01 Adam No, you know the best part about any kind of surgery. I had my hand, I had my, wow, look at it, it looks pretty good, Drew.
1:11:08 Drew Let's see.
1:11:10 Adam You see that?
1:11:11 Everclear Do you have carpal tones?
1:11:12 Adam It's great. Easy, champ, easy. The scar, it started there and went all the way down. It goes like that. The point is, I just remember you fall asleep and then you wake up and you're like, when are you going to do it? They're like, go home. Isn't that great?
1:11:28 Everclear Well, you know what the hardest thing about this wasn't, you know, it's not very funny, but it was like, I had to go home and you can't talk for 10 days. Can't use them for 10 days. And my daughter would just look at me and cry because daddy couldn't talk to her.
1:11:43 Adam And she can't, she, I mean, can you hold, she can't read a note, can she?
1:11:46 Everclear Well, no, she could read, she, but this was, you know, over a year ago. And I mean, they grew up so much in a year, but last year she could read a note, but she was just like, you know, she wanted me to read to her. We were in the middle of reading The Hobbit, you know, and she just was really, really hurt by it. So every time she'd see me, she'd come up from school and go, daddy, start crying. I just felt really horrible. I was like, honey, don't cry. And you're not supposed to even whisper. It does even worse.
1:12:15 Adam Oh my God. I would go nuts if I couldn't complain. That's not, I don't look at it as not talking for 10 days. I look at it as not complaining for 10 days.
1:12:22 Everclear It was part of that too.
1:12:24 Adam I'd want to complain about not talking. That'd be at number one on my agenda. All right, we'll take ourselves a little break. Everclear is here and we'll be back with them and you after this.
1:12:39 Caller Loveline will be right back.
1:13:12 Adam Yep, it is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. It's Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1. Art and Greg and Craig are all here from Everclear. Songs from an American Movie is the name of the CD, but it ain't out yet. Learning how to smile is actually the rest of it. And that is out July 11th. All right, everyone settled in. We're going to let Art pick the calls. He wants to speak to some of the ladies. There he goes.
1:13:39 Everclear Hey, ladies. I don't think this is working.
1:13:43 Adam Elizabeth, you're 16.
1:13:45 Caller Yes, hello.
1:13:46 Caller What's up?
1:13:47 Caller OK, when I was like eight years old, me and my friends wanted to go skinny dipping one night. So we asked my friend's uncle if he would watch us because we weren't allowed to swim alone and whatever. And we go out there and he's naked also.
1:13:59 Caller Oh.
1:14:00 Adam Perfectly normal, perfectly healthy behavior.
1:14:03 Drew What did you guys think of that?
1:14:05 Caller Because we didn't really know because we were young. But now like when we talk about it, my friend is convinced that it wasn't like considered molestation. But he was like sitting us on his lap and everything. And so I just want to like clear that up and see what you guys thought about it.
1:14:20 Everclear Did he touch you? You say he touched you.
1:14:22 Caller Yeah. Like I mean, he would just like play like, like chasing us around in the pool. But then he would like sit us on his lap and like, come here and give me a hug.
1:14:31 Adam Yeah. Yeah. But he didn't violate you. I mean, in any biblical sense, did he?
1:14:41 Caller Well, not really.
1:14:41 Everclear If you were my daughter, did he ever?
1:14:44 Drew Yeah, I beat the crap out of him.
1:14:45 Everclear I beat the crap out of him and I call the police. It's wrong.
1:14:48 Drew Did he have an erection or anything?
1:14:50 Caller I don't know. I don't remember. But like, my friend's parents weren't home. And so it just seemed kind of sketchy that like, we just asked him to watch us and we go out there and he's naked and sitting up on his lap.
1:15:00 Adam How old was he at the time? Do you know?
1:15:02 Caller He was probably like, I don't know, mid 40s.
1:15:05 Everclear Yeah, wrong. Wrong. If he was like 14 or 15, it's still scary.
1:15:10 Drew But I mean, if he was in his 40s, maybe not overt abuse, but inappropriate.
1:15:15 Everclear This brings up something to me that I wanted to talk to Drew about. It's like, I have a neighbor who was talking to me and he's got a son who's like 11 or 12. He's saying, hey, you know, Billy is going to be 12 and he's, he's a, he's, he wants to start, what's it called? Babysitting. I'm like, Ron, there's no way. You have my fiance, like, are you insane? I mean, to me, that's unfair to the little boy to put him in that situation of like he's becoming sexually aware, all these weird things are happening to his body. And he put a little girl who isn't his sister in, into the mix.
1:15:55 Drew You want somebody from the same gene pool.
1:15:57 Adam How old is your, Art, how old is your little girl?
1:16:00 Everclear She's almost dead. She's not being babysit by anybody.
1:16:03 Drew They used to send Adam Corolla over to the neighbors when he was 12.
1:16:06 Adam Yeah, best piece of ass I ever had.
1:16:08 Caller You're kidding me?
1:16:10 Adam Smell my finger, seriously, Drew. No, I did, I babysat a kid named Adam, obviously same sex, ironically enough, my neighbor named Adam, and Reeve and Ronnie. Reeve and Ronnie, I hope they're not listening, but these two turned out to be a couple of these two. It's so funny. I got a few babysitting stories to tell. First off, Reeve and Ronnie, Izzy is their dad. Izzy does it construction.
1:16:39 Caller Yeah, it's great.
1:16:40 Adam Izzy does it. I put a granite counter in for me two years ago. It's so weird when the dude who is the dad of the kids used to babysit when you're 12 and 13 years old, shows up at your house one day. He's like, I put the encounter top. And I'm like, yeah. And he's like, I know you. I'm like, yeah, I'm Izzy. Yeah, you babysit Reeve and Ronnie, my sons. I'm like, oh my God. Oh my God. It was 20 years ago. But it's so bizarre because I was like 13 and Reeve and Ronnie were like five and six. And now I see these guys and they're like 27, 28. And they got a big gold bracelet on and they're driving a Corvette and a members only jacket. And it's like YouTube pimps were the kids I was babysitting. These guys are like Israeli nightmares now. You know what I mean? It's like way too much polo cologne on and hair slick back and big, big, you know, anchor medallion and stuff. And they're driving old vets and oh, it's perfect. I hope they're not listening to the show. But the point is, is I didn't molest them, but it was always, I molested the refrigerator.
1:17:55 Drew I went from the cabin to the pantry.
1:17:56 Adam Yeah, I raped the refrigerator, man. That was a raping. I should have done time for what I did to the pantry and the refrigerator at those houses. But listen, there's no way I was gonna do anything to anybody, but I was relatively normal. I would in this day and age would not trust it. And I just wouldn't chance it. It is a chance you're taking.
1:18:16 Drew Sorry, that probability we were talking about earlier, with this stuff having spread, with kids who are abused or the ones that do the abusing, is it higher probability you're gonna come across that and not know it?
1:18:24 Everclear No, it's not even an option for me, but I just think it's a really twisted situation of putting your child or putting anyone's child in that position, of having to have the responsibility to say yes or no to that. Plus, I think anyone who leaves the responsibility of their children to a child, you know, is ridiculous.
1:18:46 Adam Right.
1:18:47 Everclear Well, it's like children having children.
1:18:49 Adam Sorry, Izzy. And Drew, is it true you're gonna hire a eunuch to look after your family when you're gone?
1:18:56 Drew I'm gonna hire him to create one.
1:18:57 Adam You're gonna create one in the lab?
1:18:58 Drew Yeah.
1:18:59 Adam You can get hold of enough drugs, you could do that, can't you?
1:19:02 Drew I'm a little-
1:19:03 Everclear Do it to you when you fall asleep.
1:19:04 Adam You know what the-
1:19:05 Drew A little team of you has.
1:19:05 Adam Oh, he has. I think the process is well underway.
1:19:08 Everclear That's what we heard.
1:19:09 Adam I've just been putting something in my coffee for the last five years.
1:19:12 Drew Then it'll just snip, snip.
1:19:13 Adam But what about this? Talk about F'ed Up. Here's what we hear all the time. What about these families, these step-families? You got a guy gets divorced, a woman gets divorced, they remarry. There's like a 15-year-old son and a 14-year-old, and they're step-daughters. There's no blood between them. They barely know each other. Before you know it, there's a wall separating them. This guy's going through the roof with the hormones and everything. I mean, how is something not going to happen in that situation? I mean, that is a serious consideration. All right.
1:19:50 Everclear So you're saying the Brady Bunch is just their full crap.
1:19:54 Adam Think about what would have reality nowadays. What would have been going on?
1:19:59 Everclear Jan would have been nailed.
1:20:00 Adam Jan and Marsha for sure. I wanted a piece of that Marsha. I went nut for that Marsha.
1:20:07 Everclear Off air, I'm going to tell you my Marsha story. Off air, I can't tell you on air. I'll get sued.
1:20:12 Drew All right, let's go to break.
1:20:13 Caller I can't.
1:20:15 Adam Free my going to break, we'll go to the bathroom. Let me have to take care of something here.
1:20:18 Everclear Let's go here.
1:20:19 Adam All right, all right. Erica?
1:20:21 Caller Hi, hey Adam, what's up?
1:20:23 Adam Hey.
1:20:24 Caller How are you?
1:20:25 Adam Good.
1:20:26 Everclear Turn the radio down.
1:20:28 Caller What?
1:20:28 Everclear Turn the radio down, it's feeding back.
1:20:30 Caller Oh, I don't have anything on.
1:20:31 Drew This is her phone. Go ahead, what's going on?
1:20:32 Everclear It's a bad phone.
1:20:33 Caller Well, I just want to say I'm a huge Everclear fan. I love you guys and I'm waiting for you to tour again. I haven't seen you since Snowcore last year. I was wondering when you guys can be out on tour.
1:20:45 Everclear Where do you live?
1:20:46 Caller DC.
1:20:47 Everclear DC. Well, we're not playing.
1:20:49 Caller I don't live in DC but that's around the area.
1:20:51 Caller Where do you live?
1:20:52 Caller Crofton, Maryland.
1:20:53 Caller Oh, you're up in Maryland. I lived in Fairfax for a while.
1:20:56 Caller Yeah.
1:20:56 Caller Who's that?
1:20:57 Caller Is that Greg or Craig?
1:20:58 Caller Yeah, that's Greg.
1:20:59 Caller Hey, Greg. I know you went to high school around here.
1:21:01 Caller You guys rule.
1:21:02 Caller Thank you.
1:21:03 Caller I have a huge crush on you, Greg.
1:21:05 Caller Oh, thank you very much.
1:21:08 Everclear Did you hear us talking about older men and babysitting earlier?
1:21:11 Caller Yeah, I do.
1:21:12 Everclear Just keep that in mind.
1:21:14 Caller Don't ruin the moment for me. Geez, I'm not that old. So, Eric.
1:21:19 Everclear You're 30, dude. You're twice her age.
1:21:21 Caller Oh, no.
1:21:22 Adam Erica, they're going to tour in November.
1:21:25 Everclear You are?
1:21:25 Caller Okay. I have another medical question.
1:21:28 Drew Yeah.
1:21:28 Caller I had a kidney transplant a couple of years ago.
1:21:31 Drew From what? What was the kidney failure from?
1:21:34 Caller I have no clue. Really? They never told me.
1:21:37 Drew What?
1:21:37 Caller They didn't know. They did all the tests, and I know it wasn't genetic or anything. Okay. But then I later, I got the EBV, and I don't know, six months after that, and I don't know, right now, I'm really sick. It's been three years, and the doctors, I was in the ER last night, and the doctors did all these blood tests, and they seemed to think that I might have EBV again, but I haven't been exposed, and I was wondering, is that possible?
1:22:07 Drew No, EBV, once you've had it, that's it. You're sure you're not talking about CMV?
1:22:11 Caller No, there's...
1:22:12 Adam Isn't EBV Epstein-Barr virus?
1:22:14 Drew Yeah, yeah. But in the kidney transplant, you're talking about sick. What was that now, about CMV?
1:22:20 Caller EBV, yeah.
1:22:21 Drew But you're sure you're not talking about CMV now?
1:22:23 Caller No, it's not. They're testing for that, too, but I got EBV, and I don't know, I guess they're afraid it relapsed, because of my suppressed immune system.
1:22:31 Drew Is there any chance that you're sort of strung out from all the meds?
1:22:35 Caller I don't think so.
1:22:36 Drew Because the meds can make you feel kind of crummy. You're on cyclosporine?
1:22:40 Adam No, wait, I'm going to put it on hold.
1:22:42 Caller I'm on SK506, or I forget the name for it, but that's the chemical name.
1:22:49 Drew Have you been tried on different, maybe, the suppressives?
1:22:51 Caller Yeah, I've been on prednisone.
1:22:54 Drew Because you feel so badly?
1:22:56 Adam What?
1:22:57 Drew Is it because you feel bad, or because the kidney starts rejecting?
1:23:00 Caller I'm not rejecting. They did tests, and my creatinine is normal.
1:23:03 Adam Whose kidney did you get?
1:23:04 Caller My dad's.
1:23:05 Adam Well, that's nice.
1:23:07 Drew Why do they keep changing your medicines if there's no rejection?
1:23:10 Caller I changed it once, like six months after the transplant.
1:23:12 Drew Because you felt bad?
1:23:14 Caller Yeah, because, well, you know, I'm a teenage girl, and cyclosporine gives you hair and stuff.
1:23:19 Drew Okay. Okay.
1:23:21 Caller All right.
1:23:21 Caller All right.
1:23:22 Drew Hang in there. It's a very serious situation and very complicated. It's normally quite manageable. Her long-term outlook is really good, but it's a lot of medicine, a lot of complex stuff to really...
1:23:35 Adam How tough is it to give up a kidney? Does that affect you in any way?
1:23:39 Drew Big operation.
1:23:40 Adam But doesn't affect you?
1:23:41 Drew No.
1:23:41 Adam Don't need it?
1:23:43 Drew No.
1:23:43 Everclear If they're both in the jet.
1:23:44 Drew Yeah, you only have one left, but yeah, that's it.
1:23:47 Adam Right. Sounds like you're driving without a spare, but you got good rubber on the car.
1:23:51 Drew Right.
1:23:52 Adam Okay. That's fine.
1:23:54 Drew I mean, you give up your daughter to see what you think about it. Just, yep, let's go.
1:23:58 Adam Oh, Art would give his daughter a kidney even if she didn't want it. She didn't need it. Take that goddamn kidney.
1:24:03 Drew And you'll like it.
1:24:04 Adam Write it down on a piece of paper. Take that kidney.
1:24:06 Everclear You take that kidney. Yeah, the days of telling my kid what to do are over. Have you noticed that? It used to be daddy would say, okay, don't do that. And it's just like, wah, right? Now it's kind of like, yeah, right. Whatever. She's doing that to me now. Whatever. Hello. Whatever. There you go. Thank you.
1:24:28 Adam Art, pick it. Oh, wait a minute. We gotta go to break. Who are we gonna talk to when we come back from break?
1:24:32 Everclear I don't know. This Alicia been smoking heroin for a year now. How to get off. There we go. That's a good one.
1:24:37 Adam All right. She's 21. We'll be back with Art. Rest ever clear and Alicia after this.
1:24:44 Caller Let's have some more fun. Okay.
1:24:46 Caller Let's do it.
1:24:48 Caller Call Loveline 1-800-LOVE-191.
1:24:52 Caller Loveline, we'll be right back.
1:25:24 Adam Put your headphones on, please. It is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew. Everclear is our guest tonight. Songs from an American movie, Learning How to Smile is the name of the CD. It is going to be out on July 11th. And let's see if we can mow down a few calls here. Well, wait a minute though. How's this interview going? Are we doing all right?
1:25:47 Everclear I think we're blowing it, but you know, I kind of expected that when you brushed me off today.
1:25:51 Adam Oh, all right. Now, come on.
1:25:53 Caller It's true. It's true.
1:25:54 Everclear Now, come on.
1:25:55 Adam You know, now listen, no, seriously.
1:25:57 Everclear But you said you'd stay late and do it.
1:25:59 Adam I know. That's what I'm getting at. That's what I'm getting at. Because I left, I got out of the house at 815 this morning.
1:26:05 Everclear You're not going to weasel out of it.
1:26:07 Adam Oh, seriously. How are we doing? It seems like we got some footage. We got some pretty good.
1:26:13 Everclear We got footage we don't even know we can use.
1:26:16 Adam What do you mean? We can use this. We can use all this. We can use the part about us arguing about the footage.
1:26:21 Drew You just said that.
1:26:24 Adam I think we're doing pretty good.
1:26:25 Everclear Fine. Listen, man. You said you were going to do something to help me out. That's fine.
1:26:29 Adam No, I know.
1:26:30 Everclear You're backing off. No, I'm not.
1:26:32 Adam I just want to know what kind of shape we're in with the footage. That's all I'm saying.
1:26:37 Everclear You've got questions here. Let me see how many you've asked.
1:26:40 Adam That's my point. I'll do them right now. Screw the callers. I'm getting out of here.
1:26:46 Everclear You've asked me one of these questions.
1:26:48 Adam All right. I've asked a couple of those. Come on. I was reading them in my office today. I've got people yelling at me. Give me that thing. Let me interview the band for a second. Drew, you know my idea.
1:26:58 Everclear Let's talk to the girl who's smoking heroin. That's more interesting.
1:27:00 Drew Yeah, we've got to talk to her first. Come on. Please.
1:27:03 Caller Okay. We'll come back to the questions.
1:27:05 Adam Sorry. Hey, wait a minute.
1:27:09 Everclear Wrong one.
1:27:09 Adam Oh, is that the wrong one?
1:27:10 Everclear We're there. Let's talk to her. Angelica.
1:27:13 Adam Angelica?
1:27:14 Hi.
1:27:14 Adam You're 21.
1:27:15 Caller What's up? Basically, I am sick of meeting guys that are such assholes. All my life, I've met guys that are assholes.
1:27:23 Drew Wait a minute. Hold on a second. Is this the heroin ad?
1:27:24 Adam No, this is another one. I punched the wrong one. Sorry.
1:27:27 Everclear She keeps going out with mean guys, how to break the cycle.
1:27:30 Caller Yeah. It's like, now I'm looking at guys that are like 30 and it's like, I'm only 21, you know?
1:27:37 Adam All right. Is your dad in a hole?
1:27:39 Caller Yeah.
1:27:39 Adam All right. Well, there's the connection.
1:27:41 Everclear Did he hit your mom?
1:27:42 Caller No.
1:27:43 Everclear Was he really mean to your mom?
1:27:45 Caller I don't think so, no. I was three when they got a divorce.
1:27:49 Adam Okay. But he was not a good influence on you.
1:27:51 Caller No.
1:27:52 Adam And you're choosing a holes based on that. So why don't you get a little, you know what you're doing. Why don't you get a little therapy, read a book and-
1:27:58 Caller I can't tell. And then second of all, I think I'm gay.
1:28:02 Adam All right. Well, forget about the guys then. Go out with mean, abusive women.
1:28:06 Caller But I can't find, like, I don't know. You know, I'm not sure, you know.
1:28:10 Everclear Look, it's not that hard to get started.
1:28:12 Caller Just- Well, I know.
1:28:13 Everclear Jump in. Start swimming.
1:28:15 Caller Huh?
1:28:16 Everclear Jump in and start swimming. It's not that hard to get started. Are you attracted to women?
1:28:21 Caller Sometimes. Yeah.
1:28:22 Everclear Okay. Are you still attracted to men? You ever attracted to nice men? Like nice guys?
1:28:26 Caller Well, it's just, I don't know where to find any. I mean, it's like, okay, I'm like 5'7, and I weigh 130, you know? And it's like, I don't see anything wrong with me at all. And it's like.
1:28:37 Caller All right.
1:28:37 Adam There are nice guys who like you. You're not interested in those guys because of your dynamic and what went on in the past and your relationship with your father.
1:28:45 Caller Well, how about you, Adam?
1:28:46 Adam Listen, what, me?
1:28:48 Caller Oh, yeah, you.
1:28:48 Adam Man, how about me?
1:28:50 Caller How about you?
1:28:50 Adam You want to go to the tree house?
1:28:52 Caller Fine, well, fine.
1:28:53 Everclear Adam's not that nice.
1:28:54 Adam Little inside humor. No, listen, I don't play house.
1:28:57 Everclear You're just keeping out the cycle with the mean guys.
1:28:59 Adam I'd only break your heart, kid. Alicia? Alicia. Alicia, you're a, whatever you are, 17. What's up? Oh, I'm tired of people. What's up?
1:29:11 Everclear What's going on, Alicia?
1:29:12 Adam Come on, I got to do a five-minute Everclear interview here so I can get the hell out of here. So let's go, sister.
1:29:18 Everclear Take your time, baby. You take your time.
1:29:20 Caller I got all the way off heroin about a year ago. And then, like, about three months ago, I started doing again. And just for, like, a couple months or so, I stopped again. And just recently I started up again.
1:29:32 Drew Well, Alicia, the problem with all drugs is staying off. It's pretty easy to get people to stop using, but staying off, it ain't going to happen without a lot of treatment.
1:29:41 Everclear Are you in a program?
1:29:42 Caller No, I'm not.
1:29:43 Drew It's not going to happen.
1:29:44 Caller I've been doing this on my own.
1:29:45 Drew No, not going to happen.
1:29:47 Everclear You're not going to get off. Trust me, I know from personal experience, this is art. You're not going to get off. You need to get in some sort of program. You need to stop hanging out. Do you hang out with people who get high?
1:30:00 Caller I've been going to different crowds, but it still is, I mean, it comes back to me.
1:30:05 Everclear Well, stop going to those clubs. I mean, if you really want to get off, I mean, you're 17, right? Okay. You know, right now, when you're 17, 18, 19 years old, you don't think about the mortality issue. My brother didn't think about that. He died when he was 21 from a drug overdose. It can come up on you, you can overdose from smoking it. Everyone thinks it's the safe way to do it.
1:30:31 Drew No way.
1:30:32 Everclear Man, and sooner or later, you're going to shoot it because you're going to find out-
1:30:36 Drew I've never met somebody smoking it who doesn't venture to shoot it.
1:30:38 Everclear You will because you'll get five times the high. Here I am pushing her on it. You'll get five times the high for half the money. Why wouldn't you do it? Right now, it probably freaks you out to think about it. Have you seen people shoot up? Yeah. You've never done it?
1:30:56 Caller Once or twice.
1:30:56 Drew Oh, here it goes.
1:30:57 Everclear See? Yeah.
1:30:58 Adam Art, how many times did you try to quit before you successfully quit?
1:31:03 Caller Three.
1:31:04 Everclear I would binge.
1:31:05 Adam I'm asking Art.
1:31:06 Everclear I would binge. I was big into, with dope and with cocaine, shooting cocaine, I was really big into speedballs. They were kind of the rage back in the 80s.
1:31:16 Drew They still are. They're still with us in a big way.
1:31:18 Everclear Yeah. And- You're distracting me, Drew.
1:31:25 Adam Don't try his glasses on you, Neumann.
1:31:27 Everclear My kid and my girlfriend do that. I don't expect that from my doctor.
1:31:31 Adam Speedballs or try on your glasses?
1:31:32 Everclear Well, yeah, both. I tried to quit a couple of times. Look, it got to the point where I had this ego thing, like nothing's going to control me. Of course, I was smoking like two packs of cigarettes a day and thinking that I could control it. And what happened eventually is I just dug myself into a hole. I had done a lot of illegal things. And I was to a place where I just hated myself. And, you know, maybe some people need to get that far down. But to be honest with you, Alicia, most people who get that far down never come back.
1:32:09 Drew I gotta tell you, when I, every patient I admit to the hospital, I was asked, why did you come in? Why now? Because every addict has had tons of consequences. And the usual answer they give is, well, I'm tired of it. I want to live a healthy life. I'm destroying myself. It's never that. And then when you get to talk more, it's about, oh, I had my kid taken away. I got a DUI. The court ordered me and I've got to do something now.
1:32:29 Everclear Mine was, I was really close to putting a bullet in my mouth.
1:32:34 Drew That's one of the people get to.
1:32:35 Everclear I was down to that place.
1:32:36 Drew That's a serious bottom.
1:32:37 Everclear You know, I had, you know, I had had my brother die from a drug overdose. My previous girlfriend had died from a drug overdose. I had this, you know, and I felt like I had a better life. That I was destined for a better life, but I was just living this nasty, white trash drug life, hanging out with people who, you know, I wouldn't trust around my stuff. And it was just, it was just, I was digging this hole where I just hated my life. And I got to the point where I was seriously considering suicide. And then I just started thinking about it. And I, I talked to a couple of people, called a couple of outreach numbers, and it was just, I put myself in a county-run hospital down in Orange County, got clean, detoxed. It was miserable. It was the worst time of my life.
1:33:27 Adam And you didn't relapse after that?
1:33:29 Everclear Nope.
1:33:30 Adam All right, Alicia.
1:33:31 Drew NA., Alicia. At least start there.
1:33:32 Adam Absolutely. You're 17. I mean, why go through the world's worst 10 years and then do it or not get a chance to do it at all because you're OD.?
1:33:40 Everclear You think it's hard now, man. If you stop now compared to five years from now or 10 years from now, the damage that it's going to do on your soul, your psyche and your body in those five years or even another year, you'll never get it back.
1:33:56 Adam All right. That's a good way to go out. We'll take a break. We'll be back after this. There you go, Drew. One more. Songs from an American Movie is the name of the CD out July 11th. Of course, it's our good friends, Everclear, and that about does it for the show.
1:34:57 Caller Not for you.
1:34:59 Adam Oh, man, am I tired. I want to thank Greg and Craig and Art for all coming in here. Always good to see these guys. And when the CD comes out again, July 11th kiddies, feel free to come by and give it a fresh new plug and we'll hear stuff off it and all that good stuff. All right, Drew.
1:35:22 Drew Let's go.
1:35:23 Adam So until next time, this is Adam Crawler for Dr. Drew saying mahalo. I'm such an idiot.
1:35:30 Caller Well, now.
1:35:31 Caller This has been Loveline. The stuff expressed on Loveline is not necessarily the stuff of the staff, management, sponsors or anyone else, including Westwood One Entertainment. Loveline is produced by Ann Wilkins and Gold. Now, please enjoy these birds.
1:36:05 Caller Portions of the day's programming are reproduced by means of electrical transcriptions or tape recordings.
1:36:12 Adam Yep, it is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew over there. Everclear is our guest tonight. Songs from an American movie. Learning How to Smile is the name of the CD. And let's see if we can mow down a few calls here. Well, wait a minute, though. How's this interview going? Are we doing all right?
1:36:29 Everclear I think we're blowing it, but you know, I kind of expected that. But you said you'd stay late and do it if you wanted to.
1:36:34 Adam That's what I'm getting at.
1:36:36 Drew Please.
1:36:36 Adam OK. I want to thank Greg and Craig and Art for all coming in here. Always good to see these guys. All right, Drew.
1:36:45 Drew Let's go.
1:36:46 Adam So until next time, this is Adam Carolla for Dr. Drew saying mahalo. Hi, Drew. See you, brother.
1:36:55 Caller Have fun.
1:36:56 Caller See you later.
1:37:04 Adam I think I'll just hit Ollie on this one, favorite song on the new album.
1:37:09 Caller It's a toss up between Wonderful and Thrift Store Chair for me. Just the melodies and the lyrics.
1:37:17 Adam Well, to me, Wonderful is real signature Everclear.
1:37:21 Caller Yeah.
1:37:23 Everclear I think they're all sound like Everclear, but I mean, that's one reason I wanted this to be the first single, because on all our other records, we've come with songs as the first single that, weren't like everything to everyone on the last record. Didn't sound like Santa Monica or any of the others, Heroine Girl or any of the singles off the previous album.
1:37:42 Caller So what was your favorite song then, Art?
1:37:44 Everclear I have to say, it's a cross-up between Learning How to Smile, the title track, and Annabella's song.
1:37:55 Adam Yeah. I love that day, Annabella.
1:37:57 Everclear Yeah.
1:37:58 Caller For me, it would be Otis Redding.
1:38:00 Caller Yeah.
1:38:01 Adam What am I going to argue? I thought the whole thing sounded great. I really did. I've been listening to it in my car for about four days straight, nonstop. And, you know, the thing that's interesting about it is it's real layered. There's a lot of different stuff going on, and there's a lot of voices, a lot of tracks, and I've been kind of hearing something new each time I listen to it, which I guess is a good thing.
1:38:28 Everclear So that's what I like in my group. That's a throwback to the Beatles, you know?
1:38:32 Caller Right.
1:38:33 Adam Or Led Zeppelin. I was listening to the CD, and I listened to the whole thing, and I loved it. Then I was reading like a bio on the band, and I heard that you guys covered Brown Eyed Girl, and I thought, I didn't hear that on the CD. And then I went back and listened to it, and it was on the CD, but it was such an interesting twist on it. Yeah.
1:39:00 Everclear Sounds like a number two song, but I love that song. That's the song that I first really started singing to.
1:39:06 Adam My relationship with Van Morrison and Brown Eyed Girl goes, I loved the song, and then it got into some Julia Roberts movie or something along the way, and it blew it for me totally, but then when I heard you guys do it, it sort of breathed a little air into it. Yeah, it brought it back for me. And I don't know if it was a synthesizer that was in it, or I don't even know if it was a synthesizer.
1:39:31 Everclear There was a lot, man. There was everything but the kitchen sink.
1:39:34 Adam But it's like, in a way, I wouldn't even call it a cover. I mean, because lyrically it was a cover, but...
1:39:40 Everclear I added more lyrics.
1:39:42 Caller Yeah, there's some newer stuff in it.
1:39:44 Adam But melodically, it just sounds like an Everclear song.
1:39:48 Caller We've always tried to do that with our covers, is rather than just cover them straight out, sort of doing how we would do it if we had written a song.
1:39:54 Everclear But still try to keep the integrity of the song.
1:39:56 Adam Well, yeah. You ever think of covering just a balls-out rock song?
1:40:01 Everclear Well, we did the Boys Are Back in Town.
1:40:03 Adam Focus, focus by focus.
1:40:04 Drew It's been done.
1:40:06 Adam Who's covered that? You know, you know, you know.
1:40:10 Everclear Did that or someone did that, right?
1:40:12 Drew Some metal band.
1:40:13 Everclear Joseph John or something. Oh, really?
1:40:15 Caller I didn't want to know.
1:40:16 Adam All right.
1:40:18 Everclear Well, we probably do. We did Boys Are Back in Town.
1:40:21 Adam Yeah, that is a rocking song and definitely one of my favorite growing up.
1:40:26 Everclear Well, we are going to do an album of covers.
1:40:29 Adam Oh, you are?
1:40:29 Everclear We have like about 20 recordings. We've got Our Lips Are Sealed. We've got Connection by the Rolling Stones.
1:40:39 Caller Just can't get no connection.
1:40:41 Adam We did that on our first EP.
1:40:41 Caller We did a jazz song for Christ's sake.
1:40:43 Everclear Really?
1:40:44 Caller We did a jazz song.
1:40:45 Caller Yeah.
1:40:46 Everclear Bad Connection. But it's one of my favorite covers we've ever done.
1:40:50 Adam No, but I mean, that must be fun because it's just pick your 20 favorite songs and do them.
1:40:56 Everclear And we did a Iggy Pop song, Search and Destroy. That Craig sang on. That Craig rocked. Rocked.
1:41:02 Adam Rocked.
1:41:02 Everclear And we always do ACDC's Sin City with Craig singing on it. It's always our show closer.
1:41:13 Adam When you go out on tour, who do you want to go out with? Who will you go out with?
1:41:16 Everclear We want to go out with this metal band from Denmark. They're all these hot chicks named Drain.
1:41:21 Adam Focus?
1:41:23 Everclear Drain.
1:41:23 Caller There's so many female metal bands out of Scandinavia right now.
1:41:28 Adam Kitty.
1:41:28 Caller Yeah, whatever.
1:41:31 Everclear No, we want to, I don't know. There's a band that I just signed to my label called Volcanic. They're pretty great. We're going to take them out on the road.
1:41:40 Adam Do you look for anything? Do you want something to contrast your sound? Do you want something to mimic your sound?
1:41:46 Caller We like bands that get into their own music. We don't want a band that goes up there and just stands there and stares at their shoelaces. But if they write decent songs and they're into what they're doing then that'll make the whole show. That makes perfect.
1:41:59 Adam And what about, I know this is a rotten question, but what about competition? What about there's some band that just plays their ass off and destroys the drum kit? It's like you're going like I don't want to go on after that.
1:42:10 Caller That's what our reputation was. Our reputation, the only two tours that we've ever opened for anybody were Spong and Filter because we had a reputation for, before even our record had come out, Sparkle and Fade, our first major label record, we would totally turn the crowd against the band because they had come out, Sparkle.
1:42:27 Adam That's what I'm saying. And I mean you've heard it historically, I don't know if it's Grand Funk Railroad opening up for Zeppelin and blowing them away or whatever, but it happens and has happened and continues to happen. And all I'm saying is no matter how good a band I was in, I wouldn't want some upstart, energetic, just blow the roof off.
1:42:52 Caller Yeah, look for one that's sucked just a little bit.
1:42:55 Everclear We always look for bands that can kick our ass on any night. That keeps us up. Then we come out with all, you know, just firing on all pistons.
1:43:09 Adam Let's talk ukuleles with Greg for a second.
1:43:11 Caller The Ukulele Freedom Front is trying to take over six-string domination of the world. Trying to get it down to four.
1:43:17 Adam Oh, I've read the literature.
1:43:19 Caller You've been to the rallies?
1:43:20 Drew I'm well-aggressive in the situation.
1:43:22 Caller Yes, yes. No, actually, there's a song on the record that I wrote that's a song about my wife and I's honeymoon, and it happens to feature the ukulele. Happens to feature a lot of other guitars and bass and everything else, but it's...
1:43:34 Everclear It's a synthesizer, an accordion.
1:43:36 Caller Yes, but it has ukulele in it.
1:43:39 Everclear It features.
1:43:41 Adam You never play the ukulele on stage?
1:43:45 Caller I will be. Actually, I'm debuting the song at Art's wedding.
1:43:48 Adam Well, actually, I know the song you're talking about. I thought it was a mandolin.
1:43:54 Caller No, no, no, it's the honeymoon song. The honeymoon song is the ukulele.
1:43:58 Everclear No, yes. He came back from his honeymoon with the ukulele. He bought it for like 30 bucks in a dream. And world domination. And he came back and he played me this little ditty. It was just basically one little chorus, you know. You know, I love you baby, I know you love me too. And I was like, that's hot, man. You got to write more of a song. And he kept adding little verses here and there and here and there. And then when we turned this into an Everclear record, I was like, man, that song would fit perfectly on there. And he actually had to arrange it like a song. We all got down with it and hammered it into a song and just started playing some stuff.
1:44:42 Adam And I'm guessing you went to Hawaii or Alvera Street for your high life.
1:44:47 Caller I went to Hawaii. Hawaii. Yes, quite.
1:44:51 Adam We had Don Ho on the show once.
1:44:52 Caller Oh, really?
1:44:53 Adam Yeah. He smokes a lot of weed.
1:44:55 Caller Does he?
1:44:55 Everclear Check out his daughter, man.
1:44:57 Adam Oh, really? Listen, anyone, any chick with the last name Ho is OK with your name.
1:45:04 Everclear Her name is Oku. Oh, really?
1:45:07 Adam I think you don't need the last name.
1:45:08 Caller You like the air.
1:45:14 Adam You guys, is there a band that you really love, that you admire, that the influence do, or that you love to work with or play with? Oh, yeah.
1:45:24 Everclear For me personally.
1:45:26 Caller I would say any of the guys in Los Lobos. They're my heroes.
1:45:29 Adam Oh, really?
1:45:30 Caller They're my heroes. If I had a chance to meet with those guys and ever work with those guys in the future, I would be completely blown away.
1:45:35 Adam Boy, I'll tell you, you go from Los Lobos.
1:45:37 Caller To Yuckelele.
1:45:39 Adam To Yucke.
1:45:39 Caller I mean, I don't know. It's really weird because he's a really big Slayer fan too.
1:45:44 Caller I am not. I've never heard a Slayer song all the way through.
1:45:47 Adam I'll tell you my all time favorite drummer. Deep Purple.
1:45:51 Caller Ian Pace?
1:45:52 Adam Yeah. I love Deep Purple's drumming. I mean, for air drumming, I don't really play anything.
1:45:57 Caller Not the actual drumming, just the look?
1:45:59 Adam No, for me. The look that I would have when I was doing Highway Star.
1:46:03 Everclear Yeah, I was going to say Highway Star.
1:46:07 Adam Come on.
1:46:07 Caller I don't know any of those songs.
1:46:08 Adam It's a hot song.
1:46:10 Caller No. Stuart Copeland was always my guy.
1:46:13 Adam What about you on guitar?
1:46:15 Everclear Guitar players?
1:46:16 Caller Yeah.
1:46:17 Everclear Jimmy Page, Joe Perry. When I was a kid, that's what I grew up to.
1:46:20 Caller Craig, thanks.
1:46:21 Caller Oh, I grew up listening to Metallica, Kiss, G-Trick.
1:46:33 Adam It's interesting that you three guys all live in three different towns, three different states.
1:46:39 Everclear That's not that uncommon for bands that are bigger bands.
1:46:43 Adam It's just usually, you know, there's some band and they're from Atlanta and everyone goes back home to Atlanta when they're done touring or whatever.
1:46:53 Everclear It was like that for several years. We're from Portland. This band is from Portland, Oregon.
1:46:57 Caller Both Craig and I both still have friends and family in Portland, so like when we were up doing the record in Portland, it's not so much going to a new strange city, it's sort of coming back.
1:47:06 Caller And when you've been in a band with somebody for eight years, it's not like we need to re-learn how we write songs and stuff. We pretty much can bounce off of each other right off the bat. When we start jamming, it just connects. We don't bang heads with each other that often. Like I don't come up to Art and say, man, I just got this wah-wah pedal and I want to go in this direction on this album. You know, it's pretty much normal.
1:47:33 Everclear No, but if he said that, I'd be like, sure, let's check it out.
1:47:36 Adam What is the arrangement? I mean, does everyone get their own? Everyone get sort of rain over their own instrument? I mean, is Art saying this is what Ace needs to sound like?
1:47:47 Caller I think what Art writing the song sort of has rough ideas, but generally, you know, when he plays a riff, we sort of just play what comes to the top of our head unless he has a definite vision as to which way he wants to go.
1:47:58 Everclear I try not to like totally give them my idea of it because I want to see what they're going to come up with. But if what they come up with is really far away from what I wanted, then I'll push them in my direction. But they'll take what I want and take it to their own place.
1:48:19 Adam What about the acting off the music for a second?
1:48:23 Everclear Well, you can't really call when I do acting. So you mean me being in a movie? Yes. Okay. I got offered a couple of parts. I've been offered parts for a while. I was like, hey, we got an idea. How about you're a rock star that goes back to school as a teacher. Or no, women. Here's a good one. You're a rock star and you go to work in an office building. How about that? That's really cool. No, wait a minute. I got even better idea. You know, it's like that's the kind of stuff I've been getting. So this came up and I really liked the script and I talked to the director and told her my ideas on it and she liked my ideas on it. I read for it. I got it.
1:49:07 Adam Was she a fan of Everclear?
1:49:09 Everclear She was a fan of Everclear. She didn't really want me to do it. It was a producer at Miramax who had the idea for me doing it. She called me thinking I like Everclear and maybe we'll get a soundtrack song out of it but I'm going to blow this guy off. I already got someone to do this part.
1:49:27 Adam Frank Stallone?
1:49:29 Everclear Actually no. What do you got to do?
1:49:32 Adam I live in Hollywood.
1:49:33 Caller I know what's going on in this city.
1:49:36 Adam So what is the movie? What is the part?
1:49:39 Everclear The movie is called Committed. I'm in it with the lovely Heather Graham. She's the star of the movie. Casey Affleck, Ben Affleck's little brother, is really amazing and a few other people. But I had a pretty good part.
1:49:54 Adam It seems like a fairly natural thing for you to do because you're pretty, number one. But number two, on a serious note, I mean...
1:50:05 Caller On a serious note.
1:50:08 Caller He's the pretty one.
1:50:10 Adam On a less gay note. I mean, you're an interesting person with some depth and some ideas and you probably have all the makings of a good actor.
1:50:20 Everclear I did a lot of acting as a kid. I hated it because I felt like I was pushed into it. I always wanted to be on the other side of the camera. In this last three days, I directed this video and it was really a realization of how much I really enjoyed telling people what to do.
1:50:39 Adam As far as the premise for the video, did it just come straight off the song?
1:50:43 Everclear Kind of. I mean, it was basically the song Wonderful and it was looking at it from two kids' perspectives, from different ethnic and economical backgrounds. So basically, both of these kids have all three of those that spin off out of them to a special effect that's pretty cool. And voice their opinions, sing the lyrics, we yelled at the parents.
1:51:09 Adam And who wrote it?
1:51:10 Everclear I did.
1:51:12 Adam And so you conceived the video, you wrote it, and did the storyboard and cast the thing, did the whole thing?
1:51:21 Caller Oh man.
1:51:23 Caller It was fun.
1:51:25 Everclear And mastered this record at the same time.
1:51:27 Caller Oh my God.
1:51:29 Adam You got to get back on drugs.
1:51:30 Everclear Yeah, just like you're doing way too much with your life.
