1:51 Voiceover Loveline.

1:52 Adam Yes, it's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla, that is Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1, fax number 310-854-4455. Dr. Drew is a board certified physician and addiction medicine specialist.

2:06 Drew And I never knew how much Adam cared about me until tonight.

2:08 Adam Why is that?

2:09 Drew Because we missed one night together. You walked in like I hadn't seen you in three weeks or a month.

2:13 Adam I don't know, Drew. I missed you, buddy. What can I say?

2:16 Drew I moved.

2:17 Adam You're going to humiliate me because I missed you?

2:20 Drew Yeah.

2:20 Adam I love Drew. I don't know how they got that sentence. I think they must have pieced together a sentence. I must have said, I love Puntang or pizza or something. And then they went and clipped that Drew when I said like that.

2:32 Drew In reality, Drew shut up. Right.

2:34 Adam They pulled the Drew off of that. Matthew McConaughey is our guest tonight. He's starring in the new movie U-571, which is coming out this Friday. And I'm not just kissing butt when I say this. I like these kinds of movies. I like a good sub movie. I like a good war movie. I like a good adventure movie and a mission movie. And apparently, that's what this movie is. And there's your microphone over there, Matthew, if you want to...

3:03 Drew No.

3:03 Adam Oh, you gotta get up on it, sorry.

3:06 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, you get all of that in this one.

3:08 Adam Yeah, that's...

3:08 Matthew McConaughey You get all of that in this one, man.

3:10 Adam I like it. I was talking to Drew last week about the scene that's in every sub movie where they shush people in the sub. Do you have a good shush scene?

3:20 Drew People might hear us.

3:21 Adam You know what I mean?

3:22 Matthew McConaughey No, you're not gonna have a shush scene, but you got scenes that we get quieter and quieter the deeper we get.

3:27 Adam Yeah.

3:27 Matthew McConaughey Yeah. So you get without the literal shush.

3:30 Adam But no one shushes anybody? That's good, because I was making fun of that scene. Every sub-movie is like 40,000 fathoms above us is a German cruiser. But it doesn't have that scene and I'm glad. But Harvey Keitel, Harvey Corman, all the big names.

3:54 Matthew McConaughey Bon Jovi, Bill Paxton, Jake Weber, Eric Palladino, we got about 14 of us guys.

4:02 Adam I got it.

4:03 Matthew McConaughey Our only romance in this thing is the C, who's our mistress.

4:07 Adam Well, she's a fine girl.

4:09 Matthew McConaughey She is.

4:09 Adam Like the brandy song goes. So this story is, and we don't want to give away too much, but you can give away as much as you're comfortable giving away. It's World War II, it's on a sub. People don't realize it's one of the most dangerous, most claustrophobic, bizarre details you could possibly imagine being on a sub patrol, especially in World War II. I mean, subs were in their infancy. And there wasn't a whole lot of emphasis on comfort or safety. And these guys were going out for months at a time and staying under oftentimes for weeks at a time.

4:47 Matthew McConaughey Once you're down, it's not like you get moody and you have a chance to go back up. You're down.

4:52 Adam And it's got to do something to your psyche. I mean, to be hundreds of feet under the water with a bunch of smelly guys for weeks on end. I mean, it's got to drive you a little nuts. And then the danger factor, it's kind of weird, but you're already sunk if you really think about it. I mean, there's all it's going to take is a hole in your can and you're staying.

5:16 Fire and water.

5:17 Matthew McConaughey Fire and water will sink, it will kill you.

5:20 Adam You know, I mean, when you're on a boat, you get hit, at least you can jump overboard. You get hit or something goes wrong down there and that's it. You just never come up.

5:28 Matthew McConaughey And it's not like one of you is going to go down. If you get hit, you're all going down.

5:33 Adam Right. Yeah, I couldn't imagine signing up for that detail. Was it a volunteer detail back then?

5:40 Matthew McConaughey I believe so. I think you've got your choice. I think you've got to sign up for if you want to be on a carrier or if you want to be on a sub. And I don't exactly know the numbers, but I would suppose that the sub-duty was the lowest.

5:52 Adam Yeah. Well, and so this is a movie about a mission, World War II. These guys all have to carry it out. And we won't give away too much of the plot, but I can't wait to see.

6:05 Matthew McConaughey I have not seen more suspense in the film.

6:07 Adam Really?

6:07 Matthew McConaughey No, I really haven't.

6:09 Adam And you've done a lot of films.

6:11 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, this is the closest to what I would call an action film, but even from other films I've done, as far as action goes, this has got the suspense that I'll put up against anything. It works.

6:22 Adam Let me take this moment to kiss your ass for your work in Dazed and Confused because, Drew, I don't know if you saw Dazed and Confused.

6:30 Drew It was a long time ago. It's kind of blurry for me because I couldn't tell whether I was reliving a memory or whether I was actually watching a film.

6:36 Adam Right, yeah, because in 1976 was sort of your wheelhouse. When did you graduate high school?

6:41 Drew 1976.

6:42 Adam Perfect. So these guys were all graduating in 76. And Matthew was perfect because he played the guy who graduated a year or two before who was still hanging out, big fish in the small pond. He'd been working for I think the phone company or something for a year or two.

6:59 Matthew McConaughey Just keeping him from changing my pond.

7:02 Adam Just having ten bucks in your pocket meant you were sort of way a few rungs up on the ladder. Then you got a ride, you got your own wheels, and all you got to do is slide down a couple of years. It's a pretty crucial couple of years. I mean, from 25 to 23 is no big deal, but if you're talking about people that are still in high school and you're a couple of years older, you are king of that hill.

7:24 Drew The people he hung out with when he was a senior.

7:26 Adam Right. And he was just, I was watching that movie. I'd never seen you before. I wasn't familiar with your work, but I just said, that guy, that is perfect. Perfect. It was just, you were that dude.

7:41 Matthew McConaughey Thank you. That guy was based on, my brother still says a very sarcastic thank you to me when I say this, but it was based on who I thought my middle brother was.

7:52 Drew That's as compared to what your middle brother thinks he is?

7:55 Matthew McConaughey Exactly. He was seven years older, so there are those times where I know mom and dad were out of town, we had parties, I saw certain things, but you think your older brother is seven feet tall. You think the Concorde system in the back of that Z28 is the best sounding system you've ever heard in your life, and you think that your brother there hanging out in the smoking section, again, is the absolute stud of all beings. I put those images together.

8:17 Adam It's amazing how much mileage you can get out of just being born a year and a half, two years earlier, when someone is 16 and someone is 19, let's say. I mean, you were automatically cool just by virtue of the fact that you had graduated two years ago and these other guys were still in high school. It was a big, I mean, it doesn't really fly once you get in your 40s, let's say.

8:38 Drew You and I have hit a point, though, where they actually can't believe we survive, like we live. I was in Colorado State on Thursday night, and they asked how old I was, and they were like, whoa.

8:48 Adam You're holding up.

8:49 Matthew McConaughey Wow. A little tougher to get away with it.

8:54 Adam Sean?

8:55 Caller Yeah.

8:56 Adam Sean, you're 16.

8:57 Caller Uh-huh.

8:59 Adam U-571.

9:01 Matthew McConaughey This is for you.

9:02 Caller I'm going to go see that movie that looks like a very good movie.

9:05 Adam There you go. Thank you. What's your question?

9:06 Caller You're awesome, Matthew McConaughey.

9:08 Matthew McConaughey Appreciate it, Sean. Appreciate it.

9:09 Caller Yeah. I'm 16, and this girl I met at the high school across came about two weeks ago. She's 15, and I'm a sophomore in high school. She's a freshman. And anyway, she really liked me, and she gave me her number, and she called me last weekend, and we got together went to the movies, and then I asked her out like a day after I knew her, just because I felt like things went good. I usually rush into things. So later that week, she's like, yeah, this doesn't work and she broke up with me. And last Friday, she just called me up at the Blooms. Like, you know, I feel like, you know, having sex. I was like, okay. And she's like, I'll be here for five minutes. So she comes over.

9:48 Drew How old is she?

9:49 Caller She's 15.

9:50 Adam She came over to your house?

9:52 Caller Her friend drove her over, and I was alone, no one was at home or whatever, and she comes over like 10 minutes later, and she gets in, and I'm a virgin.

10:00 Drew Just one second. Just picture Sean during that 10 minutes.

10:04 Matthew McConaughey While she's on her way over.

10:06 Caller I tripped and fell like all over, but I'm a virgin.

10:09 Adam The first thing he did was he pulled the Dick Van Dyke maneuver on the ottoman, rushing for the shower to wash his groin off. Tell me, did you go for the full shower or just the groinal?

10:22 Caller The 30-second shower. I didn't jump out and I slipped on the tub and hit my head on the same time.

10:28 Adam Yeah, it's great. Great. I didn't even feel it. Oh my God. You're like taking a multivitamin, slamming on aquavelva, doing a little karate move in front of the full length mirror in your towel.

10:39 Matthew McConaughey Maybe no music. Whoa, maybe not. I'm thinking of that phone call.

10:42 Drew What is that phone call he got?

10:44 Adam I don't know what's up. She broke up with you and then she calls you and said she wanted some sex. So anyway, she's got some stuff going on. She's coming over.

10:52 Caller Yeah, and so she's over here or whatever. Should we go to my room? I got to try to as best I could in the two seconds I had. Get the mood going, lights off. Got some crappy slow music on. She gets in there and she's like, well, I only have 10 minutes. I got to go. She's beeped and she left the house. I'm like, okay.

11:13 Drew She left what? She what?

11:14 Adam She only had 10 minutes?

11:16 Drew Yeah. She left some kids behind?

11:18 Adam You can only do it twice. Is that what she's saying?

11:21 Yeah.

11:25 Caller Anyways, I'm a virgin. I never really done anything down there. Pretty, not that I'm a prude, but yeah.

11:31 Adam Right. All right. So cut to the chase.

11:33 Matthew McConaughey What happened in the 10 minutes?

11:34 Caller Okay. So yeah, I've never been down there before. The lights were out and I couldn't see a thing. So picture, you know, a virgin not been down before fumbling around. I mean, yeah, I was trying to find where it's supposed to go.

11:47 Adam Yeah. Yeah, that's true.

11:49 Caller I couldn't get it in and I was like, okay, crap. You know, I fell with my finger and I tried to put it in. I don't know if it was the angle I was coming from or what, but I couldn't get it in.

11:58 Adam You couldn't get the penis in.

11:59 Caller Right. And I'm falling around for two or three minutes and she's going, uh-

12:03 Drew You were wrecked?

12:04 Caller Yes. And then six minutes later it's like, oh, crap, you know, I need some help. And she's like, no, do it yourself.

12:12 Adam Oh, really?

12:13 Caller Yeah. So anyway, six minutes later I'm like, okay, you know what, I'm not that hard anymore. And she went in two minutes later, it's like, okay. And she's like, I gotta go. I'm like, what?

12:24 Adam All right. So she left. Right. All right. So your question is, is how to kill yourself? I suggest hanging or pills.

12:33 Caller Kind of tied a noose around my penis and hang it.

12:35 Adam Yeah, hang it around your penis. All right. Listen, Sean, it's a tough situation. I don't know how many virgins would have done any better than that.

12:45 Drew Totally understandable. And even most guys, I don't know if most is the right number, but many guys on their first go out outing experienced some kind of dysfunction. So you've now got that out of the way, and in the most sort of extraordinary way, in fact.

12:59 Matthew McConaughey Let me say this, that first time, you said this is your first time, as you said, down there. Doesn't every guy think it's a little higher than it is?

13:08 Adam Yeah.

13:08 Matthew McConaughey When you first go down, you go, oh my goodness. And you get there and go, oh, did I go one too low? And you go, no, no.

13:14 Adam Yeah, I never knew it. It sort of pointed toward the ground. I figured it just stood straight out. Like what you saw.

13:23 Drew Like an Indian drawing on the wall? Like just a sort of primitive man's drawing of the female?

13:27 Adam Yeah, yeah. No, like a pencil sharpener or something. It's straight in, not up underneath the desk.

13:34 Matthew McConaughey I thought you stood up.

13:36 Adam Yeah.

13:36 Matthew McConaughey Because it was horizontal to the ground.

13:39 Adam Here's the problem. We didn't have access to hardcore porn growing up. We saw this softcore porn, all these Emanuel movies and a diary of an English window cleaner and all this nonsense. And whenever they hump, they're on top of each other. My impression of love making was the guy lies on top of the woman and does sort of a push-up maneuver, but flat on her, like that. I wasn't thinking about going down and up or in. You know what I'm talking about? And when you see, when you saw the picture like in Playboy, that was really my other reference source for women, is I thought the business end was sort of where the hair was up there at the top.

14:22 Matthew McConaughey I thought it was right behind there, just right here looking at you right up the page while she was standing up.

14:25 Adam Yeah, that the hair was just sort of a curtain. You know, you just have to get past that.

14:29 Drew A prehistoric man would express themselves by sort of displaying what they thought their image of woman was when they'd drawn the cave walls and stuff. It would look about like what you got expected.

14:37 Adam That was it. Yeah. So the idea that it was sort of tucked up in there was a surprise. I'm still shocked and dismayed. On 35, I haven't gotten over it yet. Each time, each new vagina I see, I never get over it.

14:51 Drew Keep looking for the real one.

14:53 Adam That's right. Where's the one I grew up picturing?

14:58 Drew So, Sean, please, you sound pretty good spirits about this. She is not somebody you probably want to stay involved with. She's got a lot of stuff going on.

15:05 Adam Oh, yeah.

15:06 Matthew McConaughey Take your time. Get her to come work on your time.

15:09 Drew Somebody who you have a relationship with, you can take your time with. That's where it's at.

15:12 Adam Yeah. When the light's out, that's tough too, when you don't know what's going on in there. That's rough because it's like, I was thinking the whole time he was talking, like if you work on cars a lot and you change the water pump enough on the same car, you don't even need to look. You just drop your wrench and your hand down there and you start, you know what to feel for. But if it's your first time out, you need a shop light and a manual.

15:34 Drew Here's the extraordinary things about man. They know where that stuff goes in, but that's about all they ever figure out. The rest of it, they never learn, ever. A lifetime of working with it, they never figure it out.

15:44 Adam Anthony?

15:45 Yeah.

15:46 Adam You're 14?

15:47 Caller Yeah.

15:49 Adam U571.

15:52 Caller Oh, okay.

15:55 Matthew McConaughey PG-13, you can get in there too, bud.

15:56 Adam That's right. What's up there, Anthony?

16:00 Caller I was like, I was, I was in this chowder the other day, and I looked down at my penis, and I saw these like, little like bumps underneath it, like underneath the penis, and all over the scrotum, like, like kind of goose bumps.

16:17 Drew That's a good description of the pearly penile papules, basically. And those are normally, you're hit in that age when these kinds of things start to develop, and I wouldn't worry about it.

16:26 Caller Okay, thank you.

16:27 Adam All right, Anthony. Yeah, there you go.

16:29 Drew He's got a satisfied customer.

16:31 Adam Let's see, let's speak to Pedro, who's 20. Pedro?

16:36 Hey, what's up, guys?

16:37 Adam Hey, how's it going?

16:38 Pretty good. Hey, my question is, I got a girlfriend who's 21 and I'm 20, and sex has been really great between us, but the only problem is she will not give you a head when I'm awake. But she'll wait till I'm sleeping and then do it.

16:53 Drew No way.

16:54 Adam Yeah. Drew and I have the same relationship. At least I think we do. I'm not sure. I suspect when I wake up, something's gone awry down there though.

17:04 But what should I do? Should I tell her to quit? I don't know how to go about this. Should I be happy?

17:09 Adam Well, if you ever asked her to do it while you're awake?

17:13 Well, yeah. I told her a couple of times, you don't hear the moment like, hey, you know.

17:16 Drew What is her reason? What is her reason for this?

17:20 She doesn't really explain. She just gets quiet. It's not like I don't please her. I go down on her and I expect-

17:24 Drew Why don't you just wake yourself up when this stuff's going on?

17:28 Matthew McConaughey Well, do you not like it or would you just like-

17:32 Huh?

17:33 Matthew McConaughey Do you not enjoy it? Does it not seem like a continuation of a good dream?

17:37 Drew He doesn't wake up for it.

17:38 You can't enjoy it if you're sleeping.

17:40 Matthew McConaughey Oh, you don't wake up.

17:41 Adam You don't wake up?

17:42 Matthew McConaughey So she tells you that it happened but you don't know what happened?

17:44 Drew Maybe it's not even happening.

17:45 Adam Hey, Pedro, if you ain't waking up-

17:47 Matthew McConaughey She's juking you, man.

17:48 Adam Don't ever join the military, by the way. You and Barracks would be a bad combination. Right.

17:55 Drew Make sure you don't get jailed.

17:56 Adam Yeah. Please don't do time.

17:58 Drew No prison.

17:58 Adam If you're not waking up for that. All right? Yeah. Hey, listen, Pedro, here's your answer. Next time you feel like you want some moral sex, tell her you're taking a nap and then just lie there with one eye open. I don't know, Pedro. This isn't a real problem. You just talk to her. You know, no one can tell. I mean, actually, we have a lot of callers that yell at their girlfriends and ask them bizarre things, but they never communicate with them and sexually, they never communicate with them. I mean, it's all right. Just say, listen, I enjoy this. I notice you do that. Can we reach some agreement? Here's 20 bucks. I hope this helps. Just have a discussion. It's all right.

18:35 Drew Yeah, it's okay to talk.

18:36 Adam It can be done. Not too much talking, though. It gets weird.

18:41 Drew This is the person you're most intimate with. You can't even discuss basic preferences.

18:45 Adam Right. Kelly?

18:46 Yeah.

18:46 Adam You're 19. What's up?

18:48 Caller Oh, boy. All right, well, to make a long story short, I've been dating this guy for almost two years. And about a week ago, we were coming home from school and he deals drugs, kind of key to this situation. And he got pulled over and they found a pound of marijuana in his car. And my question is, we obviously haven't been smoking it anymore and he got rid of everything, doesn't deal with it anymore. But my question is more for Drew. As far as withdrawal symptoms, his mood swings are just off the wall.

19:23 Drew Yeah, and they will continue that way for quite some time. Be very irritable. It's very similar to coming off opiates, heroin. A lot of pain and agitation, a lot of severe feelings of sort of loss and irritability.

19:36 Adam Well, yeah, if someone confiscates a pound of weed, that's a feeling of loss.

19:40 Drew Literally, heroin acts are described feeling like somebody died. That's the feeling, somebody really loved, just taken away for some reason.

19:46 Adam Well, how old is he?

19:48 Caller He'll be 21 in a month.

19:49 Drew He will not stop. Typically, people with this history will switch to something else. They won't make it without treatment.

19:55 Adam He must have been smoking for a while though, like he started young.

20:00 Caller We actually didn't smoke it when we first started dating. We started...

20:05 Adam So, he's been smoking weed for a year and a half?

20:08 Caller No, no, no. I'd say probably like six months.

20:11 Adam Really?

20:11 Drew That's all you got to do. You smoke it up.

20:13 Adam Oh, no. No.

20:14 Drew I'm telling you.

20:15 Adam Listen.

20:16 Matthew McConaughey Then you think he's got to go to something else, you believe? If he's not smoking, I mean, now he's only quit for a week.

20:21 Drew I'll tell you the history. I treat marijuana addiction every day. That's probably the most common addiction I see right now.

20:26 Adam That's how he met his wife.

20:30 Drew Most marijuana addicts actually come to me as speed addicts because they switch over to speed as a way of dealing with either the depression that marijuana causes or the marijuana withdrawal. Alcohol also sort of corrects this, so people would gravitate on alcohol.

20:41 Adam Typically, how long have those people been smoking marijuana before they get to you?

20:45 Drew Between 3 and 20 years.

20:47 Adam Okay. So I'm saying 6 months. We've never spoken to anyone who's smoked for 6 months, quit and had all the associated depression and all that.

20:58 Drew No, no, no, he's not describing that. He's describing withdrawal, which is different. Means he was smoking heavily for 6 months and stopped abruptly. You'll get withdrawal.

21:06 Adam Okay.

21:06 Drew He's not getting all the other stuff.

21:08 Adam All right, I'll buy that. So what does he need to do?

21:10 Drew MA.

21:11 Adam Does he?

21:12 Drew He's got doctors' mom. There are doctors that can treat the withdrawal for you. It's not a particularly, it's a reasonably easy one to trade.

21:20 Adam Basically, they hook an IV up and circulate bong water through you for about a week until you fall away.

21:27 Drew Benzodiazepines, Neurontin, Clonidine.

21:30 Matthew McConaughey It's going to get a little easier.

21:32 Adam Why don't you give me some of that stuff, Drew?

21:33 Drew No, actually, the problem with the marijuana withdrawal is that the depression gets sometimes worse, and the depression is the big issue. In fact, there's a- Hold on.

21:41 Adam Drew, don't bum me and Matthew out. We smoke a little weed.

21:46 Matthew McConaughey I just got a question. I mean, where's the will in all this? That's my question. Before we say it's an addiction, before we say it's got to be treated, I'm just- Especially at that age, especially at that age, where you got that much incentive about-

21:59 Drew Doesn't have anything to do with addiction. Because if I just had to convince somebody they need to stop, that's what I do. The difference between somebody who's addicted and not addicted is when you're addicted, you can't stop even when you want to, no matter how bad you want to. That's what addiction is, and that's what I run addiction recovery program. That's what I deal with every day. And people earlier in their disease always can use will. That's why they convince themselves they should be able to use will later too. It's because they, for many, many years, would go, well, I'll use or not use. I could stop if I want to. But when addiction really is entrenched, when you truly are an addict, that's when you can no longer use will.

22:33 Matthew McConaughey Would you say addiction, one definition, would be when it's choosing you and you're not choosing it?

22:38 Drew Yeah, but the problem is, though, I'd say that's severe addiction. The problem with addiction can go from an incipient phase to a severe phase, and I can predict who's going to have the problem with the inability to use their willpower. It's a sort of predictable course with people.

22:53 Adam All right, you're bumming my high.

22:54 Drew I'm sorry.

22:54 Adam I got stone off my ass.

22:56 Matthew McConaughey Nice hat.

22:58 Adam I'm wearing my pot hat. Terry?

23:01 Caller Hello?

23:01 Adam You're 20.

23:03 Caller Yeah, I have a question. Yeah. I'm taking orthotrycycline pill, and I took it while I was drinking on Friday night, and then I took my pill like when I usually take it, except because I was drinking and I had too much to drink, I threw up. So, and I don't know how long, and my question is, is how long does it take before the pill is absorbed?

23:26 Drew How long after did you vomit? I'm sorry.

23:28 Caller Probably, I don't know, 30 to 60 minutes after I took it.

23:33 Drew Probably a big difference between 30 and 60 minutes. 30 minutes, it's not absorbed. 60 it might have been.

23:38 Adam Really?

23:39 Drew Yeah.

23:40 Adam All right.

23:40 Drew Did you see the pill?

23:43 Caller No, but I mean.

23:44 Drew If you were drinking. Well, when you throw it up, usually you see the pill if you didn't absorb it.

23:47 Adam You would?

23:48 Drew Yeah.

23:49 Adam Well, I don't know. She chucked in some hedge staggering out to her boyfriend's El Camino. What do you think she did? Get a miner's light and go through it?

23:59 Drew A strainer?

24:00 Adam Yeah. She got like a miner's sieve or something, like some old timer down at the creek looking for gold.

24:07 Drew All right.

24:07 Adam So what should she do then? Take another one?

24:10 Drew Yeah.

24:10 Adam She should.

24:11 Drew Yeah, or double up the next day.

24:12 Matthew McConaughey Go back to that spot. It may still be there.

24:17 Adam A dog probably laughed it up by now. All right. We're going to take ourselves a little break. When we come back, I think we'll speak to Frank. Girlfriend has a foot fetish. Girlfriend has a foot fetish?

24:29 Drew Yeah.

24:29 Adam But he's insecure about his feet.

24:31 Drew This should be interesting.

24:31 Adam No, it's ridiculous. Let me talk to him for one second. Frank?

24:34 Yes.

24:35 Adam She likes to shop for shoes, right? She doesn't like your smelly feet.

24:38 No, she likes my smelly feet.

24:40 Adam Really?

24:40 Yeah, but I'm so uptight.

24:42 Drew Every time we make love. We've actually heard us occasionally set up with guys.

24:46 Adam All right. Hold on a second there, Frank. Okay. Matthew McConaughey is our guest tonight. U-571 is the movie out this Friday. I give it two thumbs up. Why not? I got two hands. Drew, you want to put two more thumbs in there?

24:59 Drew Four thumbs up.

25:00 Adam Four thumbs up.

25:01 Drew For our listeners, we got to call it RU-571.

25:04 Adam RU.

25:04 Matthew McConaughey RU.

25:05 Adam Yeah.

25:07 Matthew McConaughey Six thumbs in the room.

25:07 Adam Thank you. All right, Drew, quiet down now. We're going to take a little break and we'll be back with Frank and his feet after this. Yeah, it is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Matthew McConaughey is our guest tonight. U-571 is the name of his latest movie, which will be out this Friday, and it's got a lot of big stars in it, and it's chock full of suspense and action, and it takes place in World War II and underwater. So there's really no reason. No, it's something in it for everyone.

26:14 Matthew McConaughey Girls, you're gonna love it too, man. You really are.

26:16 Adam A lot of guys sweating. No one sweats like a guy in a sub. A lot of sweating guys wearing tight white shirts and pants with flared bottoms on them and those little watchmen caps. A lot of tension. A lot of sweaty, tension-filled guys. So ladies, you can enjoy that.

26:37 Drew You're gay.

26:37 Adam See, guys, and here's the thing too, is guys couldn't enjoy the male version of that unless the chicks got naked and got into the shower. Women, I think, could enjoy the guys without having them get into like a panty fight or something. There's no panty raid in the movie. No.

26:59 Matthew McConaughey Not yet.

26:59 Adam You and Harvey can't tell.

27:01 Matthew McConaughey We got four days.

27:01 Adam You don't run into his bunk with a pillow and yell, panty raid, and start beating him over the head. Good. Hey, Matthew, seriously, I don't know what you can do. I'm sure you're-

27:11 Drew He wants to be in a movie. Is that what you're going to go for?

27:15 Adam I am this nation's greatest untapped resource. I really am. I'm a huge talent, an amazing talent.

27:23 Drew Oh my God.

27:24 Adam Almost a phenom, I think, of me. I'm really, I'm 35-year-old prodigy, if that's possible, Drew, and I really, I really, I have something to say.

27:36 Drew And Matthew, when you produce and direct your next film, you'll think of him.

27:40 Adam No, here's what I'm saying.

27:42 Matthew McConaughey What are you saying?

27:43 Adam I'm saying I'm going to be on the big screen, I'm going to be making an impact, and basically, what I'm saying to you is I'm giving you a tip on a stock. I'm letting you get in, I'm saying because I like you, I'm going to let you get in early.

27:57 Matthew McConaughey Just between you and me.

27:58 Adam Just between, I'll get you in on the ground floor now.

28:01 Matthew McConaughey Okay.

28:02 Adam That's where the smart money is going.

28:03 Drew All right. That being said, let's go on a call.

28:05 Adam Because I know how all this works. You have friends, they're in the industry, all you got to do is tap someone on the shoulder.

28:12 Drew You produced this film?

28:13 Adam Who did produce it?

28:14 Drew De Laurentiis.

28:15 Adam There you go. You know De Laurentiis, right?

28:17 Matthew McConaughey Yes, I do.

28:18 Adam There. Next time he does something, you go, I know a guy with a big eyebrows, it'd be perfect for this role. You see what I'm saying?

28:27 Matthew McConaughey I'm getting everything that's not even being said, I hear.

28:31 Drew Frank, he wants to date you.

28:32 Adam Hey, what's up guys? Whatever it takes. Frank, you could do worse, by the way, Matthew, really. I can work on the house and work on the car. Very handy. And listen, we'll sit around and watch sports all goddamn day. It'll be, you know, we'll take turns getting each other beer and then we'll go out to strip joints at night. It'll be the greatest date you ever had in your life. Frank?

28:54 Yeah, what's up, guys?

28:55 Adam All right. So you're 22. Your girlfriend is a foot faddish.

28:58 Caller Yeah, it's pretty serious.

29:00 She's kind of obsessed with feet.

29:03 I have a problem though.

29:04 Caller I have a little bit of jock, or not jock, athlete's foot.

29:07 Drew Why don't you treat that?

29:07 A jock foot?

29:08 I'm trying.

29:09 Drew What are you doing?

29:10 Using some Gold Bond.

29:11 Drew Oh, please.

29:12 I don't know how well that's worked.

29:14 Matthew McConaughey Oh, my God.

29:15 Drew Frank is a Loveline caller.

29:16 Adam What do you mean? Don't you dump Gold Bond?

29:19 Drew Gold Bond is like an anesthetic. It's like to help the itching. It doesn't do anything to the problem.

29:23 Adam It doesn't kill the fungus?

29:24 Drew That's not even the worst part of it.

29:26 My big toe is like cracking down the middle. It's green.

29:30 Drew Green? Well, that's fungus. Yeah, it's bad.

29:33 Adam What a combination. You find the one-foot fetishist in America who's female, and she's dating a guy with a Chia foot.

29:42 Drew Do you like working boots or something?

29:45 Yeah, working boots.

29:48 Caller I always wear socks whenever we make love. I let her go down and suck my toes one time in the dark, of course.

29:55 Drew Did she throw up?

29:55 Adam Oh, my God.

29:57 Drew All right, here's what you do. You get some Lothramen AF. You put that on at night. In the morning, after you take your shower, take a hand-held hairdryer and dry between your toes off until it is bone dry.

30:08 Adam Okay.

30:08 Drew And try to change your socks regularly, and don't leave your feet for long periods of time in those shoes.

30:12 Adam What do you do? You play the role of a cowboy in an all-new review?

30:16 Matthew McConaughey And keep those lights off until you get the cure.

30:18 Caller Yeah, it was bad.

30:19 I think a piece of my heel broke off in her mouth.

30:21 Adam What do you do? What do you do? Jesus Christ. It's like he's a leper. What a combo.

30:27 Matthew McConaughey One time she did this?

30:29 Drew I can't help it, though.

30:30 Adam What do you do for a living?

30:30 Drew Yeah, you can. I just told you how to help it.

30:32 Adam What do you do with those boots?

30:33 Drew There are medicines to clear up the toenail, too, if it's really a problem, because at your age, it should be able to be treated.

30:37 Adam What do you do with those boots?

30:39 Drew Unless you're diabetic.

30:40 Caller I keep them in the garage.

30:41 Adam No, but what do you do for a living, Goofball?

30:43 What do I do for a living? I'm unemployed.

30:46 Adam You're unemployed?

30:47 Yeah.

30:47 Adam Why do you have to put boots on if you're unemployed?

30:51 I do miscellaneous jobs, you know?

30:53 Adam Yeah, I understand. Put some sandals on. Yeah, you got to air it out, everyone. That's where that fungus, it's the reason you don't get fungus on the hood of your car, but you get fungus underneath your house, right? I mean, in like damp, moist, dark places. That's where it grows. Same theory, right?

31:14 Drew It likes wet.

31:15 Adam Yes. Thank you. Michael?

31:18 Hey, what's up?

31:19 Adam You're 15.

31:20 Caller Yeah.

31:21 Adam U571.

31:23 Caller I can't wait to see that movie.

31:24 Matthew McConaughey All right.

31:25 Drew Good answer.

31:26 Adam So what's up, Michael?

31:28 Caller It happens to be like a couple of days ago, I started masturbating and I got this like extremely sharp pain in the back of my head.

31:36 Drew As you masturbated?

31:37 Caller Yeah. As I masturbated and like at the end.

31:41 Drew Was there any neck stiffness with this?

31:43 Adam Was it your mom hitting you with a rolled up newspaper?

31:46 Drew Rolling pin.

31:47 Adam No.

31:47 Drew Any neck stiffness with this?

31:49 Caller What?

31:50 Drew Did your neck get stiff?

31:51 Caller No.

31:52 Drew Did it go away right away?

31:53 Caller No. It took about like an hour and a half.

31:55 Drew Did you feel confused or change your vision?

31:57 Caller I was extremely dizzy and...

31:59 Drew All right. It is important that you see a doctor about this. Okay. There can be migraines, but there also can be bleeding into the brain, something called aneurysms. Usually that's described as sort of like a lightning bolt, like the worst headache of one's life, often associated with neck stiffness. But the weakness and confusion, dizziness, that kind of stuff, that is a sign that you must talk to your doctor immediately. If it happens again, talk right away, otherwise see him or her tomorrow.

32:26 Adam Probably God punishing him for masturbating, would you say?

32:30 Drew No, it's just one of those things. Don't do this.

32:32 Matthew McConaughey Let this kid sleep tonight.

32:34 Drew Michael, talk to your doctor tomorrow about it, okay?

32:36 Caller Oh, can I make a shout out?

32:38 Adam Yeah, Michael, you should make a shout out to a brain surgeon, because you may have hemorrhaging.

32:44 Caller Like, what can be the bad things about it? What could happen to me?

32:47 Drew A lot of things, I don't want to freak you out, but you gotta promise me you'll talk to your doctor, okay?

32:51 Adam Does he have to tell him he was beaten off?

32:54 Drew No, just tell him he's had a terrible headache associated with dizziness.

32:57 Adam Well, shouldn't he tell him?

32:58 Matthew McConaughey This your first time you just started this?

32:59 Adam Well, he said it was your first time, right? Michael?

33:02 Caller Yeah?

33:03 Adam This was your first time?

33:04 Caller Um, yeah. But like, it wasn't like extremely dizziness, it was just a little bit when I started walking.

33:12 Drew That's fine, you just gotta talk to the doctor about it, right? You've got to support him, because...

33:16 Adam We've had this call before.

33:17 Drew Well, the last one we had was a guy who said he was the worst headache of his life, and he had neck stiffness, and I mean, that is an aneurysm. That guy is sent to the emergency room right then.

33:25 Adam Yeah.

33:26 Drew There's this, maybe nothing. There can be headaches after this kind of thing, but the quality, anything, any vision change, any mental status change, any balance change, all that, I mean, this is where the balance centers are, and so if he's dizzy and his headache back there, that's a concern.

33:39 Adam All right. Matthew, when, how old were you when you started at yourself?

33:44 Matthew McConaughey It was 15.

33:46 Adam 15.

33:47 Matthew McConaughey Got one of those new shower heads, you know, that's got the... Nice. Drops of soap popped up, hit me in the right spot. I went, well, that's a nice spot, and I kind of hung out there for a minute.

33:56 Drew And I had a toothbrush.

33:57 Adam I had an electric toothbrush. It wasn't even mine, it was my buddy's. He's like, hey, you beating off? I'm like, no. Here, put this on your penis, you'll be beating off.

34:05 I said, all right.

34:07 Matthew McConaughey We had a thing, my mom wouldn't let us lock the doors, either to the bedroom or the bathroom.

34:11 Drew That's a rule. Oh, mom, what is she thinking? I think I'm gonna have a special room set aside.

34:16 Adam Wow.

34:17 Drew With like, special padlocks and hoses, drains in the middle of the room.

34:21 Adam I'm gonna have a place called the monkey cage. You have big drain in the center of the floor, hose bib on the side. Yeah, absolutely. Guatemala guy and big rubber waders coming in and hosing the place down.

34:33 Drew And a VCR or something.

34:35 Adam Waterproof VCR, one of those yellow VCRs with laminated porn everywhere. I'm telling you, that is still-

34:43 Matthew McConaughey Four dimensional.

34:45 Adam One of the most basic inventions is no one has done yet is laminated porn. Porn you can take in the shower with you.

34:52 Drew I should have talked to Larry Flint when he was in here.

34:53 Adam I did yell that at that idiot. Yeah, you know Larry's in no condition. I'm trying to get hold of him actually right now to do something with him. All right, where the hell are we going over here? All right, I don't know why I thought that changed. Ryan?

35:08 Caller Yeah.

35:08 Adam You're 16?

35:09 Caller Yeah.

35:09 Adam What's up?

35:10 Caller My girlfriend's allergic to the morning after pills.

35:14 Drew What do you mean she's allergic?

35:16 Caller She told me she's allergic to them.

35:18 Drew What does that mean, allergic?

35:20 I don't know what's thrown up or something.

35:21 Drew Okay, well throwing up is not an allergy that is a typical side effect of that medication.

35:25 Maybe turn some milk.

35:27 Drew Well, if it's throwing up, she should ask the doctor for some anti-throw up medicine. At the same time, she takes the pill and try Plan B instead of Prevent. Plan B doesn't cause so much nausea. There is no... A true allergy to that would be very, very unusual. And it's not nausea.

35:43 Adam No, but listen, people use that pretty loosely, that term, allergic to. You put something in your mouth, you throw it up, people say they're allergic to it.

35:50 Drew It's not allergic.

35:51 Adam Yeah, but it doesn't matter because if you vomit whatever you put in your mouth, you gotta correct it in whatever way, whatever you want to call it. Rebecca?

35:59 Caller Yeah.

36:00 Adam Yeah, I don't care what time it is. I saw a 34 double, 36 double D boob up there. I went right to it. Rebecca?

36:06 Caller Yeah.

36:06 Adam You're 29.

36:08 Caller Yeah. First of all, Matthew, I love you.

36:11 Matthew McConaughey Hi there, Rebecca.

36:12 Caller I'm a big fan.

36:13 Matthew McConaughey Thank you.

36:14 Caller Okay, Dr. Drew, I have a question. Okay, a while ago, I was put on lithium. I was about 130 pounds. I'm 5'10. I gained a lot of weight, 50 pounds. I went up to 200. When I was put on lithium, I was like a 34B. I was really kind of scraggly, no boobs. When I gained all the weight, I went up to a 36 double D. And then I started working out. And they put me on a medication, Topamax, to, I guess, help me lose the weight, also well buterin. Within another like three months or so, I'd lost, well, three to six months, I'd lost like the 50-pound, well, no, probably, let me think. I lost 50 pounds. I gained 70 pounds first and then I lost 50 pounds. My boobs have not lost anything. Really?

37:16 Adam Let me tell you, explain what my penis has been going through for the last two and a half minutes. It's been like 36 double D. I was on lithium, I put on 75 pounds, the penis starts going down, started working out, started losing the weight, and the penis started to move back up again. My penis is completely disoriented and confused at this point.

37:35 Drew Your penis needs lithium.

37:37 Adam My penis needs lithium. It's had quite bipolar. It's had some swings. Yeah.

37:41 Drew It's very dysfunctional.

37:42 Adam Thank you very much, Drew. My penis is very dysfunctional?

37:44 Drew Yes, indeed.

37:45 Adam All right. I say we'll take a break and we'll get back. Or is this? Forget it. You're right. Rebecca?

37:52 Drew All right.

37:53 Adam Your boobs are still big, but you're smaller.

37:55 Caller Right. I'm trying to talk fast because I know you guys-

37:58 Drew Yeah. You haven't done it.

37:59 Caller You drag it out.

38:00 Adam This happened to me. I got up about 215. My scrotum put on about 15 pounds, and then I lost the weight. My scrotum was still tremendous.

38:12 Drew I don't know what to do with that. And you're still on Topamax and Lebutrin, right?

38:16 Caller Right.

38:17 Drew And no birth control pills or any other hormones, anything of that sort?

38:20 Caller Well, I've been on a birth control pill for like the last six years.

38:23 Drew But that didn't start at the time of the lithium. That did not start at the time.

38:27 Caller No, no, no.

38:27 Drew And we want to-

38:28 Adam That's it. Just tell her what to do, Drew.

38:30 Drew Topamax is a new anti-seizure medicine, and I don't know if it has this kind of effect. It may be the Topamax. Well, Butrin does not typically do this, but-

38:38 Adam Go ahead, Matthew.

38:39 Matthew McConaughey Well, you know, I mean, your breast size, large or small, that seems to be an aesthetic thing. I mean, how about getting that weight leveled out? Are you happy at the weight you're at?

38:48 Drew 150.

38:49 Caller The problem is, it's not the whole breast thing. It's the fact that it's hurting my back. I'm just uncomfortable. I don't really care about-

39:00 Adam All right. Well, why don't you try to get down to the 130 you're at when you're the B Cup and see what happens? The breasts gotta go eventually, as much as I hate to say. They just will. I mean, it's just math. I mean, it's fatty tissue. All right, Rebecca? And take some more pills.

39:16 Drew Talk to your doctor about the Tobin Max.

39:18 Adam All right. Matthew McConaug is our guest tonight. U571 is the name of the movie. That is Drew's pager. Who's calling you? Co-connection?

39:27 Drew Co-connection.

39:28 Adam All right. We'll take a little break and we'll be back after this.

39:36 Matthew McConaughey We'll be right back with more.

39:38 Adam Loveline.

40:06 Matthew McConaughey I had to pin it on it. On a whole day with Adam.

40:09 Adam Matthew McConaughey is our guest tonight. U-571 is the name of the movie. Suspense, action, guys sweating, and none of that BS shh scenes. That always happens in sub movies. I'm really glad to hear that. It'll be the first sub movie ever made where there wasn't a shh scene in it. Eric?

40:32 Yeah.

40:32 Adam You're 25, what's up?

40:34 Caller Hey, I want to talk to you about the movie.

40:36 Matthew McConaughey Right on, Eric.

40:38 Is this a diesel sub or a nuclear?

40:40 Matthew McConaughey No, this is a diesel, this is World War II. Oh, WWII. So we head out in an S-33 and take over a U- And end up in a U-boat. Yeah.

40:49 Right on.

40:49 Matthew McConaughey Yeah.

40:50 Sounds cool. I just got done reading a book on submarines, and I guess those diesel boats were pretty dangerous and all.

41:01 Drew Would they just blow up on their own sometimes?

41:02 Well, no. The guys were basically getting fumigated the whole time from the diesel fumes. They got to come up and snorkel every so often and get air. And if they were under attack, the guys would have to stay down and almost nearly suffocate.

41:21 Adam Yeah, it's bad. I mean, now with the nuclear ones, they can stay down for months.

41:26 Matthew McConaughey You know what?

41:27 Adam Yeah.

41:27 Matthew McConaughey You know what's wild? They can stay down. You know, the reason they have to come back up now is for food and water.

41:32 Caller That's it. Oh, yeah.

41:33 Matthew McConaughey Basic elements.

41:34 Adam Yeah, they can stay down indefinitely.

41:35 Matthew McConaughey They can stay down there forever if the men can handle it. Yeah.

41:37 Adam And, God, that whole sub thing is weird. I mean, first off, the idea that, you know, I remember like when the German Wolfpack was in the shipping lanes and they're taking all these merchant ships down. Imagine this, everybody. Imagine you're in the middle of the Atlantic or the Pacific somewhere. You're going right through these lanes where all these German U-boats are, and you're in some big merchant ship. And how could you sleep on that ship knowing that at five in the morning, three in the morning, twelve, pitch the black of night, cold as hell, that you're just going to get torpedoed?

42:14 Drew It's likely to happen. I mean.

42:15 Adam It's likely to happen. Yeah. It wasn't like one out of every twenty ships was getting hit. When they were in their prime, less than half were making it through.

42:22 Matthew McConaughey That's what the enigma was about, is that they knew exactly where we were and all of our allied freighters as well. They had to zero it in. They were sinking 30 ships to the one that we were sinking in theirs.

42:33 Adam They were at the point, by the way, where they wouldn't even want to waste a torpedo. What they would do is they just pull up in front of these freighters and they just say, hey, everyone into the water. Then they just fire it out of their, like how it's their cannon on the deck, the cannon on the deck. Because they only had, yeah, because you think about it, you leave port, you only have so many torpedoes on board and you don't want to waste them where you don't have to. Here's some pussy merchant marine ship, the bunch of French guys on it. Hey, Frenchy, jump in the water. We're going to blow the ship up. And that's what they would do. They'd just shoot it down and they were sort of civil about it. I mean, there's one thing that's-

43:11 Drew Wait a minute, the guys would die in the water. What are you talking about?

43:14 Adam Yeah, but they'd let them get on lifeboats and stuff. You know, the one thing that's different about the mariner stuff, the Navy, is it's old. And there's like, I mean, all of it's old. But what I'm saying is there's a little bit of this spirit of the seaman kind of thing, where they'd like pick people up or give them a chance to get off and get onto the boat. And then they'd blow the boat up. Well, you're still floating out in the middle of the Atlantic somewhere with an hour's worth of water on you. But at least they didn't shoot you while you're climbing off the side of the ship. You know what I'm saying?

43:46 Drew Which eventually they did.

43:48 Adam Eventually, yeah. They got to it. I'll tell you. I'll tell you the freakiest. Oh, there's great stories. It's the eeriest thing in the world. You know, like when the Bismarck sunk the Hood, the Bismarck was a huge German battleship they thought was unsinkable. It sunk a English ship called the Hood. The Hood had like 1,485 sailors on it. Two guys lived. Two. Two dudes. I mean, imagine you're on a ship with 1,400 and change, almost 1,500 guys, you're living on that ship with these guys. Day in and day out. Years. All your buddies. Whatever. Pow. Torpedoed. Thing goes in. You and another guy floating in the water. That's it. All 1,478 of the rest of the guys down.

44:33 Matthew McConaughey That's a pretty good conversation.

44:35 Adam How do you go through life? What do you do? What do you do? Work at a shoe store? You know what I mean?

44:42 Matthew McConaughey Probably hang out with that dude a little bit.

44:45 Adam I wonder if they even knew each other before that. Michelle, you're 21. What's up?

44:52 Caller Okay.

44:53 Caller I just moved in with this girl about 2 weeks ago.

44:56 Caller I really didn't know much about her.

44:58 Caller I find out that she has herpes.

45:01 Caller I was just wondering, how do you get herpes?

45:05 Drew You have sex with her?

45:06 Caller No, I don't.

45:06 Caller I was just wondering if I could get it from the same toilet or something like that.

45:09 Adam Hold on. Loveline recreation. Loveline recreation. We don't do enough of these, Drew. You play the role of you. Matthew, pay attention here because I'm going to play a female in this role. I want you to see my range. I like to see my range on this one.

45:27 Drew How do you get herpes?

45:29 Adam I just moved in with a roommate and she has herpes. I want to know how do I get herpes?

45:35 Drew You have sex with her?

45:37 Adam No, I'm not. I want to know if I can get it from the toilet seat. Michelle? Yeah.

45:46 Matthew McConaughey That was pretty good.

45:47 Adam Drew, thank you. That's right.

45:49 Matthew McConaughey The versatility we're talking about.

45:50 Adam Tell that to Dino.

45:51 Matthew McConaughey I'm glad I'm here.

45:55 Adam Drew's allegations aside, you're not actually having sex with her.

45:59 Caller No, because I barely know her and I just moved in with her.

46:01 Adam I see. All right. So you're going to give it a couple of weeks before you guys actually have a lesbian relationship.

46:06 Caller No, I'm straight.

46:07 Adam Oh, I see.

46:08 Drew No, look, you actually can get it, and all kidding aside, you really can't get it from toilet seats, but you can get it from wet towels, okay?

46:15 Caller If I use her towels?

46:16 Drew Yeah, towels could do it. I mean, if she's rubbing her genitalia with the towels and then you touch them to your genitalia.

46:23 Adam If she's using your pillowcase for a crotch shammie.

46:27 Drew It would be a very, very unusual way to get it. It really is something people get by having sex.

46:32 Adam I've never heard of the crotch shammie, but if someone advertised it late enough and I was stoned enough.

46:37 Drew You'd buy it.

46:37 Adam Put me down. Yeah. You know what's funny on this infomercial? I was just thinking about this because someone's asked me about the Wonder Mop I bought when I was stoned a year and a half ago for 45 bucks. What's the Wonder Mop? Well, it's a mop. You wonder how stoned you were when you bought it. It was basically when it shows up. No, it was a mop that I should have never bought the goddamn thing. It was like they filmed it at the SeaWorld Shamu, like jumped and splashed a bunch of water. The mop took the whole thing up.

47:08 Matthew McConaughey What sense did it make at the time though? Because when it was genius, it was a genius thing to buy at the time.

47:11 Adam It made a ton of sense at 4 a.m. Yeah, I thought I was king of the world. But the point is, is whenever they throw in another one of the exact same thing for no extra cost, it probably means the first one ain't that great. I mean, you really think about it. Like, you're buying a car and you're bowing out the door of the thing and the guy says, hey, I'll tell you what, I'm gonna toss in another one. Same thing, another one. You'd have to worry just a little bit about the quality of the first one.

47:35 Matthew McConaughey They always remind you that even though one of them is really worth four times as much as they're offering for two.

47:41 Adam We're gonna throw, but we're still gonna throw the second one in. And I like when they go, I like when they go for the, if you call in the next hour, we're gonna do this.

47:48 Matthew McConaughey How about the ticker? The ticker, how many we got left?

47:51 Adam It's all, like I said, when you're stoned, it all makes sense. All right, we're gonna take ourselves a little break. Matthew McConaughey is our guest. U-571's movie out this Friday and we'll be back after this.

48:02 Caller Loveline, 1-800-LOVE-191, back in a minute.

48:05 Adam Well, it's worth hearing. Hey, it is Loveline. We gotta take ourselves a quick 10-second timeout for a little station identification. We'll be back with more of the show in just 10 seconds.

48:59 Adam It's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew. Matthew McConaughey is our guest tonight. U-571 is his latest picture. That is out this Friday. It is a star-studded cast. It is World War II. Guys in a submarine. It's a mission movie. I love a mission movie. I love-

49:19 Drew Movie with a mission.

49:20 Adam I like, I love, and missions fighting the Japs and the elements. That's what I like to see, are the crowds and the elements. The point, the point is, is, you know, all those Dirty Dozen. Remember movies like that growing up? Bridge Over the River Kwai, The Great Escape, even Pepe On.

49:43 Drew Ice Station Zebra.

49:44 Adam Yeah, these were movies where something had to be completed and it wasn't the guy patch things up with his girlfriend and said he saved the country.

49:52 Matthew McConaughey Now, life or death situation, that takes the entire time.

49:55 Drew The difference is now they don't include David Niffin and Ernest Borgnein.

49:58 Adam Yeah.

49:58 Drew They all seem to back then.

50:00 Adam Well, or-

50:02 Matthew McConaughey Borgnein was always there, wasn't he?

50:03 Adam Yeah, Borgnein was always in those things and-

50:07 Drew Lee-

50:07 Adam Bronson was in-

50:10 Drew Lee Marvin.

50:10 Adam Lee Marvin was in there. Lee Marvin was like just the baddest ass ever. He was always pissed off, always yelling at someone, punching out some guy. That's great. Where are all the- don't take this the wrong way, Matthew, but you're good looking, you know? Guys of yore, these guys were sort of- they looked like they'd been hurting a knife fight. Lee Marvin. Lee Marvin, not a great-

50:33 Drew He's got Keitel on this thing.

50:35 Adam Oh, that's true, yeah. He's ugly.

50:36 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, we got Keitel, Bill Paxton, John Bon Jovi, Jake Webber.

50:39 Adam John Bon Jovi. Yeah, man. Yeah, I hate to admit it, but he's a pretty decent actor, isn't he?

50:47 Yeah, he sure is. He takes care of his business when he gets here.

50:51 Adam Nothing worse than good-looking guys who did other things well and who then become actors, and they do that well, too.

50:57 Drew Hey, listen, I'm going to be watching the college chat room at drdrew.com, drdrew.com. If people want to send a message or ask a question of Matthew, I will watch for it there.

51:07 Adam I also want to say that the Goo Goo Dolls, Save Farris and Frank Stallone are coming on here later on in the week.

51:14 Drew Goo Goo Dolls played at the Kids' Choice a while ago.

51:16 Adam Oh, they did?

51:17 Drew What?

51:17 Adam How was that? I don't know. How were they?

51:21 Drew I didn't stay that late, frankly.

51:22 Adam Oh, you didn't?

51:23 Drew I think it started an hour and a half late.

51:24 Adam Where was that?

51:25 Drew Hollywood Bowl. Freezing.

51:27 Adam Oh, really?

51:28 Drew 15,008 year olds.

51:30 Adam Who puts that on? Nickelodeon.

51:33 Drew Actually, it's a great thing. It's always a great deal. But boy, this year was like... lots of technical problems.

51:40 Adam And it's a bunch of eight year olds?

51:41 Drew Well, it's like 8 to 14 year olds. Like 6 to 14 year olds, really.

51:44 Adam What cool 14 year old in their right mind is going to get caught at the Kids' Choice Awards?

51:48 Drew Well, these days, a lot of... that sort of 8 to 10 demo has grown 6 to 15.

51:55 Adam Well, what are they...

51:56 Drew There's 6 year olds dealing with 98 degrees in NSYNC, and there are 15 year olds in that looking at that stuff.

52:01 Adam Yeah, see, but if you're a 15 year old guy, you shouldn't be into that stuff. You should... the whole idea is to try to be into stuff that's older.

52:08 Drew Well, I think that's why they brought the Goo Goo Dolls up. Yeah, but they sort of went all the way in our Goo Goo Dolls.

52:14 Adam Yeah, they're poppy, people like them. All right, well, them say Ferris and Lee Marvin. We just booked Lee Marvin. Tammy?

52:23 Caller Yes.

52:23 Adam You're 25.

52:25 Caller Yes.

52:25 Adam Yeah, what's up?

52:26 Matthew McConaughey I love Tammy.

52:27 Hi, Matthew. I just want to tell you I think you are the hottest star on TV right now.

52:32 Adam He's not on TV right now.

52:35 Matthew McConaughey He's on radio right now.

52:36 And I wanted to know if you would say The Beer and the Budweiser starts to boil for me.

52:44 Matthew McConaughey The Beer and the Budweiser starts to boil for me?

52:47 Caller Yeah, you sound so sexy when you say that.

52:50 I want to tell you we're going to make your butt chicken.

52:53 Matthew McConaughey Oh, I know what you're talking about. I think we did it on Rosie.

52:56 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

52:57 Caller It's good.

52:58 Matthew McConaughey It's good. Thank you very much.

53:00 Adam What's butt chicken? I usually tape Rosie.

53:03 Matthew McConaughey You missed it that day.

53:04 Adam I didn't see it this week.

53:05 Caller I recorded it.

53:06 Adam All right, thank you. Send me a tape of that. Run me off a copy.

53:09 Drew There's a question here in the chats. Where did the idea for this film come from? Do you know the history of it or where?

53:14 Matthew McConaughey U-571?

53:15 Drew Yeah.

53:15 Matthew McConaughey Jonathan Mostel, the director, wrote the script. He started that thing, I believe, six years ago. It's based, in fact, it is not a historical document. So this mission to seize the Enigma, which is this encoding machine that the Germans had, their means of communication, where they were really able to decipher exactly where our allied ships and freighters and subs were, and especially right there in 42, where they were sinking, I believe, 30 of our ships to their one, right off our East Coast. You could see them from the land. So these things happened. Again, not a historical document. We take some license to tell the yarn. But that's where it really, you know, the basis is all there for the facts and the drama.

54:02 Adam People don't realize what a huge role all of that deception and codes and all that play in war. I mean, there's a lot of stuff like in Normandy and D-Day. We had like inflatable tanks and cardboard troop carriers and stuff set up just to make the Germans think we're going to come from this side instead of that side. I mean, it's a huge deal. I mean, if you really think about war, the difference between them waiting for you and them being asleep and having all their armament on the other side of the island is night and day. I mean, if you really think about it, I mean, it's no different than walking up to a guy's house when he's asleep or walking up to a guy's house when he's got a shotgun of beer and he's sitting in his rocking chair on his porch.

54:49 Matthew McConaughey This was an incredible turning point in the Second World War.

54:52 Drew When does the movie open?

54:54 Matthew McConaughey 21st of April, that is this Friday.

54:56 Drew Good Friday?

54:57 Adam Pay attention, I've been saying it all night.

54:59 Matthew McConaughey Good Friday, U-571.

55:00 Adam I see you're working it in there. Very nice, very smooth, sorry. Natalie?

55:05 Yes.

55:05 Adam You're at 23.

55:07 I am.

55:07 Adam What's up?

55:08 I wanted to say hello, Matthew.

55:09 Matthew McConaughey Hi, Natalie. How are you doing?

55:11 Good. How are you doing?

55:12 Matthew McConaughey Good.

55:12 Dr. Drew, I just want to say you are a plethora of information. Thank you. Adam, I haven't forgot about you, but I think I'm quite perfectly your best girlfriend.

55:21 Caller Oh, really?

55:22 I could be, yes.

55:23 Adam Oh, okay.

55:23 Anyway.

55:24 Caller Oh, thank you. You're very welcome.

55:26 Two years ago, I gave a friend of mine and I were just messing around, and I gave him oral sex. And three days ago, he tested positive for HIV. My question is, I want to know what my risks are.

55:40 Drew Well, was he positive back then?

55:43 Yeah, I don't know that.

55:44 Drew He can't tell you that?

55:45 He doesn't know.

55:46 Adam Well, that was two years ago, you said?

55:48 Yeah.

55:48 Drew Well, certainly you could be tested. You would be positive now if you had been exposed then, okay?

55:53 Adam Why did he go get tested?

55:55 Caller It was just his...

55:57 he did it every six months, and it was just his time.

56:01 Drew What was his risk? Why was he being tested every six months?

56:03 Adam Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

56:05 Drew Wasn't that your question?

56:05 Adam Listen, you're not that Chinese, right?

56:09 Drew No.

56:09 Adam You're horrible at math. You had sex two years ago, did you say?

56:13 Caller I had oral sex with him.

56:15 Drew Yeah, but he's been tested four times since then.

56:16 Adam Two years ago, and you said he gets tested every six months.

56:19 Okay.

56:20 Adam Okay, so now he comes up positive. He didn't come up positive six months ago.

56:24 I haven't spoken to him in like the last three years. So we've just got reconnected.

56:31 Adam Okay.

56:31 Drew But you couldn't tell him when?

56:32 Adam You couldn't answer?

56:33 Drew Well, you just said three days ago he tested positive.

56:35 Right. We came re-in-contact with each other like three months ago.

56:39 Adam I don't know. But Earth Dottardo, let me explain something. He's been tested multiple times since your encounter with his penis two years ago. If he didn't come up positive a while ago, then why not?

56:53 Matthew McConaughey That's not necessarily true, though. Because the virus can remain dormant.

56:59 Adam Not two years, though.

57:00 Drew Six months, 99% of people have been positive in six months. All right. Let's just say, listen, here's the deal. Oral sex has now been shown conclusively to be a mode whereby this virus can be transmitted. It had been theoretically proposed to have been. Now, it has been proven to be.

57:18 Adam Now, I've been lobbing against this theory, by the way.

57:22 Drew There have been now some well-studied situations which the only risk factor is oral sex contact. And it's the recipient, like in your situation, that is at risk, obviously, is most at risk. And how much, what percentage of the probability of a transmission in a single contact depends very much on what his viral load was and where he was in his disease and whether or not he had even been exposed at that point. All we know for you, Natalie, is that you have to be tested. And if you're negative, you're negative, and that's it. Forget about it.

57:48 Adam All right? We're fairly positive. You're negative, though.

57:51 Okay.

57:51 Adam All right. Because, and by the way, though, Natalie, did you have a conversation with him about him being positive three days ago?

58:00 Caller Yeah.

58:00 Adam And if he said, I just get checked every six months and it came up this time, isn't your next question going to be, were you positive six months before that or a year before that? Aren't you going to ask the question?

58:15 Caller I will now.

58:16 Adam Okay. Does she know what we're talking about?

58:18 Matthew McConaughey Either way, go get it checked out.

58:20 Drew She needs to be tested, exactly.

58:22 Adam Drew, does this drive me insane with our callers?

58:26 Drew Don't let it. Did you get anywhere with this?

58:29 Adam I know, but everyone listening, so you know I'm not insane, understand that she had contact with him two years ago, he then became positive three days ago, and when I said to her, why was he tested, she said, well he gets tested every six months.

58:45 Drew Yeah, I know.

58:46 Adam And she had a conversation with him, and she never asked him.

58:48 Drew I know.

58:50 Adam Is that bizarre?

58:50 Drew Did you live in San Francisco for a while? I'm just watching the chats here.

58:53 Matthew McConaughey No, I worked in San Francisco two or three times.

58:55 Drew There are people in the chat room who are saying they're having trouble finding a place to live in San Francisco. Any recommendations?

58:58 Matthew McConaughey Oh man, I had a kick-ass apartment. They're right on the water in the bay, and you know what, I don't know enough about it to tell you.

59:06 Adam But you gotta make five million movies and you can live where you want.

59:10 Drew Another question, how much did EdTV change your career? Did it or was it a big one?

59:13 Matthew McConaughey You know what, EdTV changed it in a lot of good ways. I started receiving some really cool comedies, some comedy prospects from that film.

59:22 Drew Adam, listen to that.

59:23 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, Adam ended up getting those ones that I was wanting to do.

59:27 Drew No, no, the ones you do do, you got to see them.

59:31 Matthew McConaughey I did. I started getting some people started saying, hey, this and dazed and some other things.

59:40 Adam I see us doing a cop buddy type film.

59:42 Matthew McConaughey Cop buddy?

59:43 Adam Yeah. I'm like the tough street wise Chicago guy. Doesn't take any lip. I'll tell you whose rules I play by, Drew. You know whose rules? Your own rules. My own. I play by my own rules.

59:55 Matthew McConaughey You do that thumb action right there. You know whose rules I play by?

59:59 Drew Play by my own.

1:00:00 Matthew McConaughey That's right.

1:00:01 Adam That's right. When the chief tells me to go by the book, I go by book. I throw it right out the window. That's how I go by the book. I play by my own rules. But you, you're very uptight.

1:00:11 Drew Yeah.

1:00:12 Matthew McConaughey I'm uptight.

1:00:12 Adam You wear bow tie.

1:00:14 Drew On the job. Yeah.

1:00:15 Adam On the job. You're the only undercover detective in the city of Chicago wears a bow tie. Yes.

1:00:25 Matthew McConaughey I like shiny shoes.

1:00:26 Adam Yeah. You shine shoes. Yeah. When you and I sit like at a stakeout, you eat like health food and I eat a corndog. You tell me, you know what's in that corndog? I go, come on.

1:00:38 Matthew McConaughey My mother used to work in a hot dog plant. They scoop that up with shovels.

1:00:43 Adam Forget it.

1:00:44 Caller It's no good anymore.

1:00:45 Adam Every time and I throw it out the window.

1:00:47 Matthew McConaughey Well, let's not waste all our good ones tonight.

1:00:50 Adam Yeah. Okay.

1:00:50 Matthew McConaughey Let's wait for the film to roll.

1:00:51 Adam You see what's going on here. And here's a twist, one you've never seen in a movie before. Our commanding officer, our CO, our sergeant, the guy's office we get called into. Guess what color he is, Drew?

1:01:04 Drew Black guy.

1:01:04 Adam Black guy. That's right. That's right.

1:01:07 Drew Big black guy.

1:01:08 Adam Fat black guy.

1:01:10 Caller And he yells.

1:01:11 Matthew McConaughey He yells at us. Loud.

1:01:12 Adam That's right.

1:01:13 Drew There's a white shirt and a striped tie.

1:01:15 Adam It's loosened up. He talks about having the mayor and the DA all over him.

1:01:20 Drew Yeah.

1:01:20 Adam And he's pissed off.

1:01:21 Matthew McConaughey And although we shoot it in this studio, we always shoot this stuff with a backdrop of New York City out the window behind him.

1:01:26 Adam That's right.

1:01:27 Matthew McConaughey Or Beverly Hale.

1:01:29 Adam That's right. Yeah. Okay. You know what we call it? Coffee and doughnuts.

1:01:34 Drew No, that's me.

1:01:34 Adam Oh, that's your coffee?

1:01:35 Caller You're out!

1:01:37 Adam You're now coffee. You play like Charles Coffee V. You're a very straight guy.

1:01:42 Matthew McConaughey You got a dough?

1:01:42 Adam I play Johnny Donetti, but they call me doughnuts. You know what I'm saying?

1:01:48 Matthew McConaughey Oh, because you make the good money in your little loco.

1:01:51 Adam Right, right. I think I'm a hit with the ladies, but not quite. Not quite. Yeah, that's good.

1:01:58 Matthew McConaughey They're writing it right now.

1:01:59 Adam There's a scene where you've got a brand new car and you say, don't let anything happen to it, and guess what? That's right. You son of a bitch. Right down the alley with trash cans on both sides, taking all the paint off. Yeah, you see where this is going.

1:02:11 Matthew McConaughey Right after that, that was the first time I take off my bow tie.

1:02:14 Drew There's a break for a bow.

1:02:16 Matthew McConaughey Nothing like this has ever been written right now.

1:02:18 Adam No, especially the part, the twist with the black commanding officer, yells at us.

1:02:22 Drew And when you get in front of a judge?

1:02:25 Adam Black woman, and she yells too. That's right.

1:02:28 Matthew McConaughey How many languages do you speak?

1:02:29 Adam Just the one. Yeah, but I'm tough. You speak a little like Japanese and stuff.

1:02:42 Adam And then you like stepping in, you're like ding, ching, wang, wang. And I'm always surprised. You know another language and it's because you want to listen to these Berlitz tapes while we drive around. And I want to listen to like Fool in the Gang. I want to log out a little. And you're always listening to these Berlitz tapes, trying to learn another language.

1:02:57 Matthew McConaughey It pays off.

1:02:58 Adam Yeah, it drives me nuts though. It drives me insane with these languages.

1:03:01 Matthew McConaughey Yeah.

1:03:02 Adam Yeah, that's good.

1:03:02 Yeah.

1:03:04 Caller There we go.

1:03:05 Drew Are you working on your films right now?

1:03:07 Matthew McConaughey No, I just finished.

1:03:08 Adam Coffee and Donuts. What are you talking about?

1:03:10 Drew That's in sort of development.

1:03:12 Matthew McConaughey Yeah. In 2015. We just finished a thing called The Wedding Planner with Jennifer Lopez. Finished that two weeks ago. And then U571 finished about a year ago. So now, here, that's what we got coming out in a week. But no work right now. Looking for it.

1:03:27 Adam Where did you shoot? Well, I mean, imagine you're in a sub most of the time. Where do they shoot a lot of that stuff? How do they work that?

1:03:34 Matthew McConaughey In the Stages in Rome at Cina Città.

1:03:37 Adam Really?

1:03:37 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, we had two life-size subs. You know, they were built in six pieces. You could pull a complete wall off of one of the subs. We also had a life-size submarine out in the Mediterranean Sea. It was built around, the ballast tanks were built around a deep sea fishing boat. So the sub could not submerge, but we took it out to sea. And that's the exterior shots in this thing. This thing really, it works that way. We got to make this in 2000 with the special effects, visually and the sound, and to have the life-size models. We get to do some things that a great sub film like Das Boot did not get to do.

1:04:15 Adam Yeah, they're on a limited budget.

1:04:17 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, but it really works in this story.

1:04:20 Adam Jennifer.

1:04:22 Caller Yes.

1:04:22 Adam You're 26.

1:04:23 Caller Yes.

1:04:24 Adam What's up?

1:04:25 Caller My question is for Matthew. I'm wondering out of all your roles, which was the most difficult to play?

1:04:32 Matthew McConaughey Most difficult to play?

1:04:36 Adam Coffee from Coffee and Donuts?

1:04:37 Matthew McConaughey Yeah. I still work on that one. That's where all my work is in pre-production. Most difficult to play? You know what? There's a lot about Amistad that was difficult in that. It was a different dialect. It was a lot of research going back to that time. I do all my work in pre-production. So that was one where there was a lot of choreography early to learn the dialect, to try and find the demeanor of that man and try to figure out exactly what the story was. There was a lot of responsibility to go with that story too. I don't know.

1:05:19 Adam I would think doing a dialect, I would expect everyone to just start laughing halfway into it. It would be my greatest fear that you're doing the dialect, doing it as someone from a different country, different land and people just start laughing.

1:05:32 Matthew McConaughey Part of the fun and then being able to do it right. I mean, it's easy to go ahead and learn how to do the dialect. The tough part is to just make it organic. It's not saying the words right. It's the stuff in between the words. So it seems like you're not really trying to do the dialect.

1:05:44 Drew You're not really training on the dialect.

1:05:46 Adam Hey, Jennifer?

1:05:47 Drew Yes.

1:05:47 Adam There you go. What's been your toughest role to date, mother or daughter? Okay, thank you.

1:05:56 Drew Loveline listener.

1:05:57 Adam Do you have a child, Jennifer? Jennifer?

1:06:00 Caller Sorry.

1:06:02 Adam What were you doing?

1:06:03 Caller Oh, I was going into another room.

1:06:06 Adam Oh, I see. Okay.

1:06:07 Matthew McConaughey Have a good evening.

1:06:08 Adam All right, take care. Thanks.

1:06:10 Drew Hey, I'm watching the chats here again. They said something about vans, shoes that they're talking about.

1:06:15 Matthew McConaughey Vans? No, no, I'm talking about my... I have a van.

1:06:17 Drew A van?

1:06:17 Matthew McConaughey Probably is what they call it.

1:06:18 Drew Yeah, I just said you're a fan of vans.

1:06:21 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, I have a van, a Cosmo. It's a big conversion van. It's kind of been my hobby for the last four years.

1:06:26 Drew I had just a van, like a motorman.

1:06:29 Matthew McConaughey Conversion, no, GMC conversion van. I like to take a lot of road trips, so that's one of my means of transport.

1:06:37 Adam I got a 77 Dodge. It's got the captain's chairs, a Blown Punk stereo, wood wheel. It's got the fully paneled and in rainbow tape it says Love Tron on the side. You seen me drive that, Drew?

1:06:53 Drew Yeah, it's ended with that airbrushed picture on the side.

1:06:55 Adam You got AC in that?

1:06:56 Matthew McConaughey Yeah.

1:06:56 Adam No AC, no.

1:06:57 Matthew McConaughey That's the one where you sweat.

1:06:59 Adam Yeah, you sweat, but it heats the ladies up. Yeah, big airbrushed Boris picture on the side.

1:07:05 Drew One of those Vargas girls.

1:07:08 Adam Vargas chick. Well, no, it's more of the cover of the Molly Hatchet from like 1979. The skull and rat fake there next to you. A big busted Nordic chick with a bronze bikini riding a snow leopard.

1:07:22 Matthew McConaughey And a saber.

1:07:24 Adam Yeah, yeah.

1:07:25 Drew Next caliber.

1:07:26 Adam Yeah. I don't know what happened to all those good drawings or women who would like F you to death is basically what the theme was. It was sort of like a really hot viking chick was going to come over there, like blow the hell out of you and then kill you. But it would have been OK with you when you were 15.

1:07:45 Matthew McConaughey It was going to be just fine.

1:07:46 Adam Yeah. Yeah.

1:07:47 Matthew McConaughey She really looks forward to running into her.

1:07:50 Adam Riding like a saber tooth polar bear or something. Wasn't even a real animal they were on.

1:07:56 Matthew McConaughey You remember the stars and the planets right behind her head?

1:07:58 Adam Yeah.

1:07:59 Drew Swirling clouds.

1:08:01 Adam There was never a strip mall or anything or a chevron sign. She was coming over the mountains to kick a little ass, have a little sex and then it's back to the village.

1:08:12 Matthew McConaughey Yes.

1:08:13 Adam Vanessa?

1:08:14 Caller Hi.

1:08:15 Adam Hey, you're 17. What's up?

1:08:17 Caller OK. I have a question. My friends all think I'm weird because I tend to date a lot older guys.

1:08:25 Drew How old?

1:08:27 Caller Well, the last person that I was dating was 30.

1:08:30 Drew Now, just listen to Vanessa makes you feel. Yeah.

1:08:33 Adam A little depressed, a little weird.

1:08:34 Drew Yeah. It's not the... And it's why she chooses older guys. There's some history here.

1:08:39 Adam What's up? Where's daddy?

1:08:42 Caller I don't have one.

1:08:43 Adam You don't have one?

1:08:44 Drew How old was you when he left and why did he leave?

1:08:46 Caller The minute he found out my mother was pregnant.

1:08:49 Drew Did you have step-dads?

1:08:50 Caller Yeah.

1:08:50 Drew What were they like?

1:08:53 Caller Well, he's really nice, actually.

1:08:55 Adam One guy throughout?

1:08:57 Caller No, she had several play friends.

1:08:59 Adam That makes sense.

1:08:59 Drew Were any of them a problem?

1:09:02 Caller No, they were just, you know, guys.

1:09:05 Adam Just guys floating in, floating out?

1:09:07 Caller Yeah.

1:09:07 Adam Yeah, it's got to be tough, though. I mean, not to be able to attach as a young girl, not to know your real father is and have guys floating in and out.

1:09:16 Drew Now you sound depressed.

1:09:18 Caller Well, I've had, like, depression problems.

1:09:21 Drew Have you been treated for depression?

1:09:22 Caller Yeah.

1:09:23 Drew You've been hospitalized?

1:09:24 Caller Yeah.

1:09:25 Drew Would you try to kill yourself? Okay. So here we are. So really what's happening, Vanessa, with these older guys is just an attempt to try to fix what's going on inside you. And it is not a healthy thing. That's why your friends react to it negatively. Not that in an abstract sense, dating an older guy is a bad thing. It's that the older guy that would date a 17-year-old is an idiot. It's an a-hole.

1:09:48 Adam Yes. You're flawed by nature if you're in your thirties and you're dating a 17-year-old. Unless you live in here in Hollywood and in the business, which is totally acceptable. You want to shift down to 1450. But listen, Vanessa, it feels like you're making up for something and you are.

1:10:05 Drew You're trying to regulate your feelings with these guys that are going to make you feel worse. So back off a little bit, deal with the depression, take your time, connect to somebody your own age, or even a little bit younger, 18, 19 year old, a young guy, and somebody who is actually available to you. It is in fact fear of that closeness that drives you to the older guys as a way of sort of trying to fix things, but it won't fix anything.

1:10:27 Matthew McConaughey It's not going to be easy, but Vanessa, this too shall pass. You take your time with that. Because you're that young, you're just working into the first quarter of your life. I think taking your time.

1:10:38 Drew That was a great piece of advice.

1:10:39 Adam Vanessa, I'd do that, would you? We talked about it, I think, last week. I think I yell about it at least once a week on the air, which is, if I was going through what Vanessa was going through at 17, and I knew there was a line around the block of hot single 30-year-old horny chicks who wanted to date, I'd drown my sorrows in poon tang as well. I mean, the point is, is I couldn't do it. As a 17-year-old guy, you're depressed. You can't do it. And it's easy for us to say to Vanessa, hey, just stop it. But when there's guys hitting on her, and she's feeling lonely and depressed, and they represent daddy, it's one thing to stop something that you don't have a choice about, it's another thing when it's in your face constantly.

1:11:24 Matthew McConaughey Yeah.

1:11:25 Adam That's, and it's a taller order, and it takes more.

1:11:28 Matthew McConaughey First move, she makes a call like this. Make a call and you ask for some help, you know, to which people are gonna be able to give you.

1:11:34 Adam We're gonna take ourselves a little break. Matthew McConaughey is our guest tonight. U-571 is the name of the movie out this Friday, and we'll talk to him and talk to you after this.

1:11:48 Matthew McConaughey Love Line with Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew.

1:12:19 Adam Yep, it's the Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. This is Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1, Goo Goo Dolls, Safe Ferris, Frank Stallone, all coming in later this week. Matthew McConaughey is our guest tonight. U-571 is the name of his latest movie. Out this Friday. And I know there's a lot of other sub movies in the theater, but this is the one to see. You must find this one. This is the one. Don't find the U-572 or U-570. Or U-486. U-571 is the name of the movie to see. All right. Let's hop back on the phone and speak to Mike who's 26. Mike?

1:13:02 Drew Yeah.

1:13:02 Adam What's up?

1:13:04 Caller Yesterday I was at this party and I ran into this girl and we ended up having sex. And in the morning she tells me that she was 16.

1:13:15 Drew How old did you figure she was?

1:13:16 Adam 14.

1:13:17 Yeah.

1:13:18 Caller I'm like 23.

1:13:20 All right.

1:13:21 Caller Like, that was the age like everyone knows.

1:13:23 Adam Okay. Do you use a condom?

1:13:25 Caller Uh, no.

1:13:26 Adam No.

1:13:26 Drew That's nice. Can you get her in the morning after pill?

1:13:31 Caller No. She's on the pill.

1:13:32 Drew She's on the pill.

1:13:33 Adam She's on the pill.

1:13:33 Drew Yeah. All right.

1:13:34 Adam So what's your question?

1:13:35 Caller Well, I'm 26.

1:13:38 Drew Yeah.

1:13:38 Caller And you broke the law. Should I be feeling it? Like, I don't know if I should be, like, beating myself up over it?

1:13:44 Adam Uh, we don't want you to kill yourself, but if you could just sock yourself in the ribs, that'd be good. Just once.

1:13:50 Drew How about maybe thinking things through a little further next time before you sleep with someone, and you broke in the law.

1:13:56 Caller Is that illegal?

1:13:57 Drew That's illegal, yes.

1:13:58 Caller I thought 16 was...

1:14:00 Drew Oh, it depends what state you're in. What state are you in?

1:14:02 Caller I'm in Canada, actually.

1:14:04 Caller Oh, it's a nation question.

1:14:06 Drew We don't know the law up there.

1:14:07 Adam We don't know what it is.

1:14:10 Drew It may be legal up there.

1:14:12 Matthew McConaughey I bet it's maybe even not illegal.

1:14:16 Drew A lot of states in this country are like, yeah, 14 even, some states.

1:14:19 Adam Well, maybe it varies from province to province, too, just like it does from state to state.

1:14:26 Drew Don't keep seeing her. It's not good for her.

1:14:28 Caller Oh, no, no, I have no intention. I was just like, I kind of...

1:14:31 Adam All right, I'm done with him. Listen, he slipped up, his penis landed somewhere, and that's fine.

1:14:38 Drew He's being thoughtful.

1:14:39 Adam Sort of. John?

1:14:41 Yeah?

1:14:42 Adam You're 19.

1:14:43 Caller Yeah.

1:14:43 Adam What's up?

1:14:45 Caller My question is about anal sex.

1:14:46 Adam All right.

1:14:47 Caller I heard that if you have anal sex, when you get older, you can't hold anything in, and you have to wear diapers or anything.

1:14:54 Adam It's true, but it's a very small price to pay for a lot of corn holing in your younger years. It's a decision I made early on in life, and I stick by it. Matthew backed me up on this one, too. Pardon the pun.

1:15:08 Caller Yeah, because I haven't had it, and my ex was saying that it wasn't true because it's a muscle or whatever.

1:15:14 Drew Well, your anus can become patchless as you get older anyway.

1:15:18 Caller Oh, but it would happen anyway.

1:15:20 Drew And what is patchless?

1:15:23 Adam It's like impetuous.

1:15:25 Drew No, patchless. It's a nice term. It just opens easily.

1:15:30 Adam It's patchless. It's loose.

1:15:31 Matthew McConaughey It's the difference of deans.

1:15:34 Drew Yes, indeed. That's why we're doing it. Patchless is sort of loose.

1:15:38 Adam Nice.

1:15:41 Drew Not, Matthew, learned new vocabulary words.

1:15:43 Adam His anus has become patchless.

1:15:45 Drew His whole soul has become patchless, I think, as a result of experience here tonight. But, John, listen, there is pathology that you can induce. You can cause hemorrhoids and fistulas and fissures and all kinds of good things. It's not a great thing.

1:15:57 Adam Are you gay, John?

1:15:58 Caller Yeah.

1:15:59 Adam Okay.

1:16:00 Drew But just be careful.

1:16:02 Adam So, your behemoth has been broken?

1:16:05 Caller No, not yet.

1:16:05 Adam Not yet?

1:16:06 Caller No.

1:16:07 Adam Oh, jeez. I'll tell you, you call yourself gay, yet no one's got you in the ass?

1:16:11 Caller No, I mean, so far, it's not because I don't want to, but it just hasn't...

1:16:15 Adam Oh, I see.

1:16:16 Caller No, just things, you know.

1:16:18 Adam Yeah, I understand.

1:16:18 Caller But, yeah, I am gay and I've had boyfriends and I've given, but I haven't received...

1:16:25 Adam Interesting. All right. Well, this is as long as they know who's boss.

1:16:28 Caller Yeah, kind of.

1:16:29 Adam Yeah. You are kind of in charge when you're doing that to someone, aren't you?

1:16:34 Caller Yeah.

1:16:35 Adam I mean, you know who's wearing the pants, right? The answer to every question is yes when your penis is in someone's ass. It really is. Think about that for a second. Drew, we haven't talked about this in a while, but no, it's not in anyone's vocabulary when you ride them from behind. Even if, you know, that's why I'd like to be able to do this in the market. You know what I mean? Or better yet, when you're renting a movie, they want to get, you know, Mystic Pizza, you want to get the Dirty Dozen and it's, which one we going with? The answer is always yes. All right. There's a lot of gay guys who haven't had anal sex.

1:17:14 Drew Yeah, I know that disappoints you, but that's not part of it.

1:17:15 Adam I thought that was part of being gay.

1:17:17 Drew That's not part of the necessary lexicon to be called gay.

1:17:20 Adam I know, but it's the part we make. Patchelous. I think I have an apathetic anus. Would that be appropriate terminology?

1:17:29 Drew That would apply to most parts of your body, I would suspect.

1:17:31 Adam Thank you.

1:17:32 Drew Yeah, apathetic. That's good. Apathetic patchelous anus, yes.

1:17:36 Adam Patchelous, yes.

1:17:37 Drew Hey, I'm in the college chat rooms at drdrew.com. Somebody asked Matthew, how has acting changed your life?

1:17:42 Matthew McConaughey Oh, how has it changed my life?

1:17:43 Drew You went to film school first, right?

1:17:44 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, I went to film school at University of Texas at Austin. How has acting changed my life? I tell you what, my twenties were, I guess, when I started acting, 22 in the last decade was incredible. I mean, part of the reason I started doing it was because I didn't know what the hell I wanted to do. I had a perfect job for that, if you can make a living at it.

1:18:08 Adam What was your first big role?

1:18:10 Matthew McConaughey Dazed and Confused. It was the first time. Wow, Dazed and Confused.

1:18:13 Adam How old were you when you did that?

1:18:15 Matthew McConaughey I was, I think I was 20, 21. 21 years old. Then I went back to school, finished film school, director school, and then did...

1:18:25 Drew You were trained as a director?

1:18:27 Matthew McConaughey Yes.

1:18:27 Drew Interesting.

1:18:28 Matthew McConaughey Then went to, did the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Next Generation, right before I left Austin. And went out to Hollywood looking to get production assistant work, anything I could do on the film side. I was going to try to get some auditions on the side, but I really thought it was going to happen more on the production side.

1:18:48 Adam But even after having a nice role in a film that was a real well received like Dazed and Confused.

1:18:55 Matthew McConaughey Well that's what helped me get an agent when I went out there.

1:18:58 Adam Right.

1:18:59 Matthew McConaughey I met a lady, Beth Holden, who's my manager today, who really dug me in that film, went and Don Phillips is the guy I met in the bar in Austin, Texas, who said hey, you might be right for this part in this film. I'm out here casting, called Dazed and Confused.

1:19:16 Adam Why was he out in Austin casting?

1:19:18 Matthew McConaughey Well, that's where they were shooting, and Richard Linklater directed it, and it all happened in Austin.

1:19:22 Adam I didn't know that.

1:19:23 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, it all happened in all this, Dazed and Confused was completely in Austin.

1:19:27 Adam You know, Sasha Jensen, who was in that movie, was a friend of mine, went to high school with him. Really?

1:19:33 Matthew McConaughey He's an amazing kid, man.

1:19:35 Adam Yeah, my great. You know, they always play, this guy, well, this guy shot in 92, so he had graduated high school 10 years prior to that because he's my age.

1:19:46 Matthew McConaughey Looks like he was at that time, yeah.

1:19:48 Adam Yeah, because he was, what, 28, and he's playing in a 17, 18-year-old. Yeah, which is different than like Drew, who's 40, what, two?

1:19:59 Drew Played 60.

1:19:59 Adam He played guys, early 70s, late 60s.

1:20:03 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, boom, that changed my life. I get to live through the roles that I get to play.

1:20:07 Adam Well, he makes a ton of money and bangs models too. That's not tough. I forgot about that.

1:20:11 Matthew McConaughey Life is good, yeah.

1:20:13 Adam Alphonse, I mean, Alphonse.

1:20:15 Yo, what up?

1:20:15 Adam You're 23. What's going on?

1:20:17 Caller That's right. How are you doing, Adam?

1:20:18 Adam Good.

1:20:18 Caller How are you doing, Drew?

1:20:19 Drew Hey.

1:20:20 Caller McConaughey's a pimp.

1:20:21 Caller I love him.

1:20:22 Caller I love David Confused.

1:20:24 Matthew McConaughey I know, man. Appreciate it.

1:20:25 Caller Yeah. My question is, my girlfriend, about three weeks ago, we had a counter break, and she got prevent from her doctor. And he kind of told her it was a one-time deal, and that he would never, you know, he didn't ever want her to take it again.

1:20:41 Drew Well, the reason that it is okay to take it again, and there really actually are no limitations on that. However, if a doctor sees someone using it repeatedly, that's somebody that the physician needs to sit down with and talk about more appropriate contraceptive measures. Yeah, it's meant to be an emergency measure, not a regular contraceptive measure.

1:20:59 Caller Yeah, she just wasn't on the pill, and she needs to get on it.

1:21:01 Drew But if you can do it, you can do it more than once.

1:21:03 Caller Yeah, he just, and then he, after a period was done, I believe, he wanted her to get on the pill.

1:21:08 Drew There you go. That's very responsible.

1:21:10 Caller She just finished it up on, I think, Thursday, Friday, around there, but we had the same thing happen last night, about 1 a.m. and it was like conned or broke. And she told me that there's no way her doctor's gonna, she really had the impression, he wasn't really educated and prevented at all.

1:21:25 Drew He may not understand that it's not an abortion pill.

1:21:27 Caller Yeah, that's what he kind of thought it was.

1:21:29 Drew No.

1:21:29 Caller He said that, and it was just really hard for her to get it.

1:21:33 Drew Where are you?

1:21:34 Caller Utah.

1:21:36 Drew I recall Planned Parenthood, there's one locally there.

1:21:38 Caller Yeah, that was my concern, if we go through Planned Parenthood, it's like, and it's safe for her to take it, because he made it sound like it.

1:21:45 Drew It is safe for her to take it.

1:21:46 Caller Okay, that's good.

1:21:47 Adam Hey, Alphonse.

1:21:48 Caller Yeah, what's up?

1:21:50 Adam How many guys named Alphonse are there living in Utah, by the way?

1:21:53 Caller You don't like that alias?

1:21:55 Adam Oh, it's alias, good.

1:21:56 Drew Smart.

1:21:56 Adam Yeah, confusing. Didn't make sense to me. Alright, hey, Alphonse, yeah, this guy is a little misguided, maybe he's an old timer, maybe he's a Mormon or something like that.

1:22:06 Caller Something like that.

1:22:07 Adam Alright, good, and what's up with the penis, that you keep going through the condoms that way?

1:22:13 Caller It's, well, I'm pretty well hung, I mean, according to her, I think I'm pretty average, but...

1:22:20 Adam Alright, she says big. Good, good answer. You never get the answer, by the way. My penis is exceptionally skinny, like a number two pencil, and it pokes right through the other. It's very sharp, very sharp. It's like a needle, like a crocheting needle. You never get that answer. It's more about the girth and the weight. Alright, let's say hi to Brennan. Brennan?

1:22:39 Yeah?

1:22:40 Adam You're 18?

1:22:41 Caller Yes. I just want to say hi to Matthew.

1:22:44 Matthew McConaughey Hi Brennan, how you doing?

1:22:45 Caller I'm doing okay. I just want to ask you like this little stupid question.

1:22:49 Matthew McConaughey Come on.

1:22:50 Caller Like every time anybody refers to you, they say call you Matthew. Does anybody call you like Matt? Just Matt?

1:22:55 Matthew McConaughey No, you know what? Sometimes they do, but I try and correct them very quickly. And that's for a very special reason. When I was six years old, my mother was my kindergarten teacher. I was out in the playground at lunch. I was going to play a little kid said, Hey Matt, come here and let's go play. I ran that way. My mom came and grabbed me and pulled me back. And I went, What mom? She goes, What did you go with him for? I go, What do you mean? He said, Come on. He goes, No. He called you Matt. Your name is Matthew. I named you Matthew for a reason. From the Bible. It's originally named Levi. It's a gift of God. That is your name. Never answer to Matt again. And I remember that day. Ever since then.

1:23:26 Drew Yeah.

1:23:26 Matthew McConaughey I just kind of correct it. Correct people right away.

1:23:28 Drew I had to ask your mom about it. She's like, What do you think about it?

1:23:31 Adam Same thing happened to me.

1:23:33 Matthew McConaughey I got in trouble. I got in trouble for answering to Matt.

1:23:36 Adam My uncle Lou yelled, Hey, Dick Weed! And I stood there confused. My mom went, What the hell are you waiting for?

1:23:43 Caller Get over there!

1:23:45 Adam Yeah. But listen, what about when other isn't it important for other stars and other actors when they talk about you to change your name? Matt McConaughey. You know what I mean? You have to call somebody a different name so it lets everyone know that you're friends with them. If it's Charles Bronson, it's Chuck Bronson, or Charlie. You know how every celebrity does that?

1:24:09 Matthew McConaughey Anything but Matt, man. You can have a lot of things just not Matt. You can call him by last name, whatever nickname, but just not Matt.

1:24:14 Adam Okay.

1:24:15 Matthew McConaughey All right.

1:24:16 Adam Brennan, what else do you have for Matt?

1:24:20 Caller I just want to say that my mom loves TV. And you're a fantastic actor and a beautiful man inside and out.

1:24:27 Matthew McConaughey Oh, thank you very much.

1:24:28 Adam Thanks, Brennan.

1:24:28 Matthew McConaughey Thank you, Brennan.

1:24:29 Adam You'll masturbate to Matthew tonight? No. Okay. All right. Well, it's worth a shot.

1:24:34 Matthew McConaughey Bye, Brennan.

1:24:35 Adam Drew was actually supposed to be in Ed TV, but they wisely cut him right out of that, like a cancer. Unacceptable. That is right.

1:24:42 Matthew McConaughey And Adam is now talking about the role in the sequel.

1:24:45 Adam That's right. That's right. I want to be cut out of a movie. He was, what was it?

1:24:51 Drew I was politically incorrect with Woody. We just happened to be on the same show.

1:24:55 Adam And so he cut us out. But that scene was in.

1:24:59 Drew Yeah.

1:24:59 Matthew McConaughey You were on? Okay.

1:25:00 Drew I was on with him that show.

1:25:03 Matthew McConaughey That's a great kid, Woody, man.

1:25:06 Drew And his brother's a nice guy, too.

1:25:07 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, he sure is.

1:25:08 Drew What's the brother's name we've had over a couple of times?

1:25:10 Adam Brett, yeah.

1:25:11 Drew Brett Heraldt.

1:25:12 Adam Yeah, Brett. All I remember about Brett is he brought me some sunglasses last time I saw him and I can't figure out what the hell was Brett do. Oh, they did a movie. What movie? What was that movie? They did a movie together, didn't they?

1:25:26 Drew Woody and Brett?

1:25:27 Adam Wait, Brett. Oh, Brett was in The People vs. Larry Flynn.

1:25:31 Matthew McConaughey Yeah, sure.

1:25:32 Adam Yeah, that's what it was. And that's what I was thinking. All right. Thanks very much.

1:25:36 Drew Yeah, we're going to go to break.

1:25:37 Adam Oh, we do. Yeah.

1:25:37 Drew Come on.

1:25:38 Adam Oh, hey, Jeffrey. What are you doing, Bonehead? We got to go to break. Oh, all right, man. All right. Hold on.

1:25:45 Drew He was asleep.

1:25:45 Adam Hold on. You OK?

1:25:46 Caller Yeah, I'm all right, man.

1:25:47 Adam You awake?

1:25:48 Caller Yeah, I'm all right.

1:25:49 Adam OK, buddy. I like it when people are really disoriented and they're trying to play it cool. All right, well, that was like when you call someone at five in the morning, you hear stumbling, stumbling, stumbling at the phone, then they pick it up and you go, were you sleeping?

1:26:01 Caller They're like, no, no, no.

1:26:03 Adam I mean, I was, huh? All right, we'll take a little break. And we'll be back after this.

1:26:50 Drew Hey, Adam, you know that Matthew can drive a Zamboni? I love these chat rooms. You can learn all kinds of stuff. I can sit and watch and learn things about him without him even knowing it. That's a...

1:26:58 Matthew McConaughey You can drive a Zamboni at TV.

1:27:00 Adam Oh, yeah. You learned how to drive a Zamboni?

1:27:04 Drew Well, yeah.

1:27:04 Matthew McConaughey Well, we shot it.

1:27:05 Drew Well, they said you were in... Was that in San Jose?

1:27:08 Matthew McConaughey Yes.

1:27:08 Drew That was in San Jose.

1:27:09 Adam Yeah. A lot of folks listening may not know what a Zamboni is, but it's a thing that goes over the ice at hockey matches and that. Well, and ice skating. It moves it all out. It seems like one of the greatest jobs ever to drive that thing around a hockey rink. I mean, if you're talking about just blue collar jobs...

1:27:30 Drew You've got to drive something.

1:27:31 Adam You've got to drive something. It's a hell of a lot better than driving a forklift at some manure farm or something. You know what I mean? I mean, this is a good gig, Zamboni.

1:27:40 Matthew McConaughey Yeah. It's got a cool name.

1:27:42 Adam Yeah. It's got a cool name. I had an invention for an upcoming man show in one of the manovations called the Belly Zamboni. Drew, have you seen it?

1:27:52 Drew You told me about it. I almost vomited.

1:27:54 Adam It's quite an invention.

1:27:55 Drew Anderson.

1:27:56 Adam Works under the same.

1:27:57 Matthew McConaughey Once again, another scene for the sequel.

1:28:00 Adam That's right. Coffee and donuts.

1:28:02 Drew Describe this lovely device.

1:28:04 Adam Well, it's just basically you make a lot of messes on your belly sometimes and this cleans it up. Belly Zamboni. Yeah, you really should see the demonstration of this thing. It's remote control operated.

1:28:19 Caller You work.

1:28:20 Drew Leprechaun.

1:28:21 Adam Jeffrey.

1:28:22 Caller Hey, what's up, guys?

1:28:23 Adam Year 21. So now what's up with you?

1:28:25 Caller Oh, it's my girlfriend, man.

1:28:27 Adam All right.

1:28:27 Caller She's getting away with me and my best friend's relationship. You know, she thinks that every time I go out with him, it's like he's out taking me to go out with other women. She doesn't trust me. She even got so far to demand my email password. And then when she got it, she checked mail from like six months ago before I even knew her, and she got pissed, you know, she got mad because of letters I wrote to the girls.

1:28:54 Adam Yeah, but she must have something to go off of here, Jeffrey. I mean, she's not fabricating all this. Like your buddy. I'm sure he's a bit of a screw up, right?

1:29:01 Caller No, he's all cool. I mean, but it's just that because I'm up, I'm uptight, cool. You know, I work every day. I do everything I have to do. He, you know, he's a laid back kind of guy. But she's like never really met him. She's only heard from when I say about him and then she'll like it. All right.

1:29:15 Matthew McConaughey Now, are you taking care of business? You've been true to it to her.

1:29:18 Caller I don't cheat on girls. I'm right on.

1:29:21 Adam All right. We trust you.

1:29:22 Caller Sort of.

1:29:23 Adam Sort of. Yeah. Jeffrey sounds like one of these guys who wears his chain on the outside of his shirt.

1:29:28 Matthew McConaughey No, but he's a buddy, but, but, but, you know.

1:29:30 Caller All right.

1:29:30 Matthew McConaughey I think I've heard what you're talking about.

1:29:32 Adam Hey, Jeffrey.

1:29:33 Caller Yeah.

1:29:34 Adam Here's the deal. You gotta be, you gotta be stern with her. You gotta be tough. You have to say, listen, I love you. I'm not doing anything, and you must get over this. It is her problem, and that's what she wants you to do. I have this theory about people wanting to be put in line. I honestly do. I wish a girl would do it to me once in a while, or certainly in the past. Like, like, here's the deal.

1:29:58 Drew Are you telling me something?

1:29:59 Adam Yes, because you're my new bitch.

1:30:00 Drew That's right.

1:30:01 Adam No, what I'm saying is, okay, let's all just close our eyes and think back to our early 20s, late teens, when we're with some girl, and there's that weird thing where you're all jealous, and all of a sudden you're looking through her yearbook and you're seeing her prom picture, and she's got her arm around some guy, and you start asking all these questions. Did you sleep with them? And what about this guy? And what about that guy? And all this other nonsense. Don't you wish that she would have said to you, hey listen, I love you, I'm not screwing around, I yes, I've been with other people and so have you, get over it and let's move on? You probably would have went like, oh okay, you're right. But when they go, no, no, they get on the defense and go, yeah, well I just gave the guy a hand job, but I didn't sleep with them. Then you start asking more questions and it turns into this bizarre relationship, where you become a cop and they become a criminal.

1:30:50 Matthew McConaughey The other thing you might want to check, man, is if you've got a girlfriend that's a little insecure about you spending time with your friends, you know what, that may come from a source that maybe she's got a friend or she was unable to do that and go be true and go out and have an independent lifestyle with her girlfriend before, maybe in another relationship, maybe not necessarily this one, but you got to have, I don't know, I believe in that there's three in a relationship, there's you, there's her and there's you together. You got to have your own life, she's got to have hers, and if it doesn't work as it is right now, man, you got to get that straightened out if there's any future to it.

1:31:21 Adam Good point. Colleen?

1:31:23 Caller Hi.

1:31:23 Adam You're 14.

1:31:24 Caller Yeah. A few weeks ago, I sliced up my arms pretty bad.

1:31:29 Caller I had about 24 cuts and...

1:31:32 Drew Self-inflicted.

1:31:33 Caller What? Yeah.

1:31:34 Drew Have you ever done anything like that before?

1:31:35 Caller No, I haven't.

1:31:36 Drew Just all of a sudden?

1:31:38 Caller They're really big cuts too.

1:31:39 Caller They're like three to four inches, about half an inch deep.

1:31:43 Drew Got it. Okay.

1:31:44 Caller Um, when I was cutting my arms, like, I don't know why I was doing it, and I couldn't feel it at all. Like, it hurt. It didn't hurt at all.

1:31:54 Drew Were you on drugs?

1:31:55 Caller No, I wasn't.

1:31:57 Caller Um, I take pills for depression, PaxTol. I've been taking them for five days, so I don't know if they work yet. Um, I do do methamphetamines.

1:32:06 Drew Okay. That would be being on drugs, right?

1:32:08 Caller Um, when I was cutting my arms, I was clean for a month.

1:32:11 Drew A month? Yeah. Huh. In the program or just abstinent?

1:32:16 Caller Um, I was expelled from school and I was going through a bunch of, like, probation stuff, so I had to be clean for a month.

1:32:25 Adam How old are you? 14. So it wasn't your choice to get off the mat, though?

1:32:30 Caller Um, no.

1:32:31 Adam No.

1:32:32 Drew All right. So, I mean, at your age, Colleen, this is a lot of stuff going on. Whether or not the arm cutting is related to the addiction or whether it is part of a character problem from trauma.

1:32:43 Adam Have you ever physically abused?

1:32:45 Caller No.

1:32:45 Adam No. You let your family screw it up, right?

1:32:48 Caller Um, no, not really.

1:32:49 Drew What hurts? What hurts? You don't have an alcoholic parent?

1:32:53 Caller Um, my dad is.

1:32:54 Drew Yeah, that's what we're talking about.

1:32:56 Adam That's a bad scene when dad's an alcoholic.

1:32:58 Caller Where's my bourbon?

1:32:59 Adam Does he come home, you know, I mean, he can smack you around or smack mom around or just be in a bad mood, you know? I think it had more of an effect on you than you know.

1:33:09 Matthew McConaughey Does that happen?

1:33:11 Caller No, like my mom and my dad split up when I was three and I didn't see my mom for about ten years.

1:33:17 Matthew McConaughey What do you miss? What do you want?

1:33:18 Drew Mom, no mom for ten years. That's huge. That's huge. And then stuck with an alcoholic dad.

1:33:23 Caller But I live with my mom now.

1:33:25 Drew I understand, but when you really needed your mom, mom is essential for the first five years of life. And to have been bonded to mom and then have her abandon you is a profound injury.

1:33:35 Adam Yeah, I mean, it's just you and your alcoholic dad, your formative years.

1:33:39 Drew So we've got character issues, we have affect issues, we have addiction, it's the trifecta. Stay with the people that are treating you, this requires a lot of work and just please follow their direction.

1:33:49 Matthew McConaughey And hang in there, alright?

1:33:52 Adam We will.

1:33:52 Matthew McConaughey Long life, you're just getting started on this. It can pass now, alright? Get it out of the way. Just, alright. And not easy. Take your time with it and work at it. God bless you. Alright, hang in it.

1:34:03 Adam We'll take a break.

1:34:05 Caller We're about to get funky, yo.

1:34:07 Caller This is Loveline, 1-800-LOVE-191.

1:34:11 Caller We'll be right back.

1:34:46 Adam All right, U571 is the name of the movie, and you will go see it this Friday. I command everyone within the sound of my voice to go see that. There, it is done, and it was good. Matthew McConaughey, thank you very much for coming in.

1:35:01 Matthew McConaughey Thank you. We thoroughly enjoyed this and look forward to seeing it the next time.

1:35:04 Adam Well, anytime. Anytime when your next film comes out, you just come by and give it a nice plug, and I'll see you on the set of Coffee and Donuts. So, until next time, this is Adam Corolla for Dr. Drew saying Mahala. I did some gay porn in the late 70s. Well now.
