1:55🔗AdamHey, it's Loveline, I'm Adam Corolla, that is Dr. Drew over there, phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1, fax number 310-8-5-4-44-55. Dr. Drew is a board certified physician and addiction medicine specialist. It's good to be back with all my kitties.
2:31🔗AdamYeah. I told them... You know, I came with a good competition for the X Games. A lot of that stuff's fast moving. A lot of injuries. A lot of... Basically made for people that are hopped up on math. Here's my competition. Let's see who can go the slowest on a moped without tipping over.
3:05🔗Adam78, 74. And a wind blowing. Part of that was me farting, but there's actually wind coming off the bay as well. And Jimmy and I rented a convertible and drove over the Bay Bridge in the Sausalito and fell in love all over again. It was like our... It was our 56th honeymoon is what I was telling him. It was gorgeous over there and living out here in the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles it has been a hundred and six plus every day for the last three weeks. I have been framing my garage and sweating through my underpants before noon. And I walked around San Francisco. I looked like it was like the sound of music for me. I was like Julia. What the hell is her name?
4:05🔗AdamOver my head. Cabbies honking their horn. People are walking around San Francisco. The locals just going about their business. And I just had this unyielding desire to stop people and go, hey, start enjoying this, would you? Hey, whoever you're talking to on that cell phone, hang up. Let's suck up some of this weather. I mean, middle of August over there, crystal blue skies, just 74 degrees and a beautiful wind blowing in off the bay. It was just glorious. I had a plan where I was going to actually did use hefty bags and collect air from the convertible as we drove over the Golden Gate Bridge, but I couldn't get it into the overhead storage on the Southwest on the airplane. So I had to leave it there at the airport in San Francisco. It was great. I did have one heartbreaking episode. I went to a strip club. Are you sitting down? I know you're surprised. Went to a strip club and got half a lap dance.
5:12🔗DrewYou felt so bad for the woman that you...
5:13🔗AdamNo, no, no, no, no. Uh-oh, what happened? Sitting in a strip club about 3 a.m., woman came by and said, you want a lap dance? I said, yeah, what the hell? Got me up, walked me sort of not in the... not to the lap dance area, but to the sort of room with the little neon light over it into the sort of private room. Opened the curtain and there was the bench, the curtain and a thing of like mechanics wipes, you know, the things that come out of that big dispenser that's mounted to the wall. And when I see that, it's like ch-ching. Whenever you go into a room...
5:48🔗AdamNo, I'm saying money. Oh, and when you go into a room with a stripper where there are wet naps hanging off the wall, where there's paper towel rolls and stuff...
6:09🔗AdamIf you go into a lap dance room, your basic lap dance area, you will not see towels, paper towels, wet naps, things like that hanging from the wall.
6:25🔗AdamAnd I didn't like this one, and I didn't want to drop that kind of money, so I looked at the paper towel dispenser, and I said, I think we're in the wrong room. And she went, like, are you sure? And I said, yeah, we're in the wrong room. Let's go to the regular lap dance room. So fine. Went over to the regular lap dance area, sat down, waited for the song to start. The song started. Got halfway into the song. And she said, well, there you go. I said, what do you mean, there you go? She said, that's your lap dance. I said, the song's not over yet. And by the way, a very sobering conversation to have.
7:03🔗DrewAnd by the way, I'm glad you know that there's a procedure to the lap dance.
7:09🔗AdamYou're owed a song. And furthermore, when you get to the lap dance area, because songs are playing throughout, you have to wait for the one to finish before the new one begins, before the lap dance starts. You don't start on the previous...
7:24🔗DrewOf course not, I have a bad etiquette, a bad form.
7:26🔗AdamWell, they don't prorate the song. You don't start 30 seconds into Cherry Pie by Warren Blunt and then cut off 30 seconds before I Believe in Miracles by Hot Chocolate ends. You wait for that song and it's always a weird little down time, you know? How's it going? Good, good, good. You come in here...
7:50🔗AdamOh, hey, song's starting. Climb on. So I swear to Christ, she stops halfway into it. She says, that's it. I said, 20 bucks for that? Oh yes, half a song. I said, half a song? How does that work? Oh, just half a song, lap dance. I said, how do you know when we're at the halfway point of the song? Oh, I know the song. I said, listen, now the song's going to be over in 10 seconds. You sure you don't want to just keep going? No, half a song. I said, this is a very dangerous precedent to start breaking the songs off into fractions, as if 20 bucks isn't good enough for 2 minutes and 45 seconds. Who are these? Are they plumbers or are they strippers? Jesus Christ, I wish there was some board I could complain to. Do you know what I'm saying?
8:39🔗DrewI thought you were going to tell me a story about how somehow you felt compassion for this person when I just spoke to her.
8:52🔗DrewAnd that maybe that because you felt empathic towards this person, you couldn't go on.
8:56🔗AdamHow can you feel empathic towards someone who gives you a half song lap dance? I was outraged.
9:01🔗DrewI didn't know that was the story you were going to tell me.
9:02🔗AdamOh my God. It was horrible. Horrible. I really wish there was some board I could complain to. And furthermore, I've been doing a little drunken research, and I think they shorten some of those songs. They tighten them. They speed them up a little, like some of those top 20 radio stations or top 40 radio stations do. Do you know what I'm talking about? I think they compress them. Because they're way too quick.
9:31🔗AdamI don't think he spent that much. I really don't, because we weren't in there that long. I was outraged after the half-lap dance and said it was time to bid a hasty retreat. Dave?
9:47🔗AdamOh, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. The Man Show is on right now. I forgot all about that. Comedy Central. Thank you. Go ahead, Dave.
9:56🔗CallerHow's it going? My girlfriend, when I'm going down on her, you know, she squirts. I know what caused it, but I'm not sure why or what it is exactly.
10:26🔗CallerIt doesn't smell or taste like it, so.
10:29🔗AdamAll right. Let me yell at Drew for a second. Drew, stop monkeying with your computer because you're fading off. All right. That's a female orgasmic squirtatron, right? I was going to say incontinence, but it's not incontinence.
10:41🔗DrewIt's probably not. It's probably just glandular fluid. Just the things that cause lubrication and other sorts of fluid in that area can sort of come on with more potency towards the end there. It's not already normal.
10:53🔗AdamYou're fine. You're all right with that?
10:56🔗AdamWhere's it squirt you when you're going down on it?
10:58🔗CallerAll over my face and my mouth, anywhere.
11:00🔗AdamEverywhere. And how does it come out? Does it come out like in those old Three Stooges movies when they'd open the clam that was inside the soup and it would squirt them in the face?
11:19🔗AdamYeah, fish squirted. Yeah, it started with the clams and then it was fish. Every time someone opened, or was eating soup, something squirted at them.
11:47🔗AdamSoup jokes, where the guy says to the waiter, what's this fly doing in my soup? And the waiter replies the backstroke. You know what I mean? No good. Just no soup humor in general.
12:00🔗DrewA lot of spilling of soup, a lot of too hot soup.
12:32🔗CallerAnd gotta hear more Tommy Vu and Minka.
12:38🔗AdamTommy Vu. Tommy Vu is the real estate guy who was arrested, I think, who comes on late night to try to sell people on buying stuff with no money. Go ahead.
12:47🔗CallerUh, yeah. Um, a couple years ago, I discovered I was gay. And, um, I was wondering if maybe it could be because my father was never around and I was raised by my mother.
13:01🔗DrewHow do you think that would connect with that?
13:03🔗CallerI've never really had a, you know, a strong male role model.
13:08🔗DrewWell, a lot of people grow up without strong males in their life and still yeah, don't change, doesn't change their sexual orientation. I'm just asking for you, how do you think it impacted? I don't know. Do you have a feeling about it?
13:19🔗CallerIt's just, you know, that, uh, a couple nights ago, you know, this girl called in and she, her father wasn't around and she was looking for older men and everything and it kind of freaked me out.
13:39🔗AdamAnd listen, every black guy in the country would be gay if that were the case. It's not dad not being around, it's domineering mom and dad not doing anything about it.
13:51🔗DrewOr maybe, more or less, we don't know in different people. And he said he identified strongly with a call we had where a woman, a young girl was looking for dad and that sort of resonated for him. That had meaning to him. So it might be something of that in him. But it's not something he's likely to change.
14:08🔗AdamMy father was spineless and I didn't go terribly gay.
14:13🔗DrewYou are slowly coming to terms with that.
14:15🔗AdamI'll tell you, when I was in that convertible with my lover Jimmy driving across the Golden Gate, I was really...
14:24🔗AdamI had a high enough limit on our credit cards. We were probably living in Sausalito for eight months before we had to come back.
14:29🔗DrewThe two of you. And as you see, as you get closer and closer to that real connection, you just sprung back and had to run to a strip bar to reaffirm your masculinity so you didn't feel so threatened by those homosexual feelings.
14:39🔗AdamYeah, it was a full eight hours later, though, to be fair to us. And you don't do a lot of springing when you're drunk. You do more... It's sort of a swaggering. All right, so Drew, was your dad... Your dad wasn't spineless, was he?
15:34🔗CallerAh, just on, actually I read in Maxima Magazine.
15:38🔗DrewThat shows just how bizarre some of the information is that's out there. We do scopes on people, stem to stern, all the time, where you put scopes down into their stomach and look around the stomach and up into the colon and go through every inch of it. And guess what? Nothing there. Just lining of the stomach, lining of the colon. Nothing there. This whole, there are weird tears on mucous shunts and all kinds of bizarre stuff. It's just nothing like that exists.
16:01🔗DrewYou have to take laxatives, everything's out.
16:03🔗AdamMeanwhile, everyone's going to Anima Camp. Let me explain something. There's been a million things I wish, and let me tell you this. They disappear after they're disproven and no one ever gets credit for them in a negative way. Right.
16:17🔗AdamI grew up, my mom was telling me that fluoride caused cancer, that using a pillow screwed up your spine, that microwave ovens, remember microwave ovens? Oh yes, cancer everybody. Everything was going to kill you. Well, lo and behold, none of it's killing anybody.
16:39🔗DrewIf that passes, there's no one you can go to and go, see, ha!
16:44🔗AdamRight. I want a public apology. That's right. Here's the stuff that kills you. The stuff no one is talking about. And I don't know what it is because no one's talking about it and you don't either.
16:53🔗DrewBecause nobody knows. If they did, you'd know. Right.
16:56🔗DrewThere's no mystical stuff being hidden from you. Because the moment it really is known, we all know.
17:02🔗AdamAll that enema nonsense, it's nonsense. Nonsense. Listen, your system, we're omnivores. We're supposed to eat meat. All right? We're not set up so that I eat a veal chop in 1969 and it's still floating around in there. Does it work that way with alligators? Does it work that way with leopards? Does it work that way with dogs? No. Why with humans? It doesn't work that way. Whatever is in you, you crap out about four hours later. That's it. It's not floating around in there. Listen, if you're going to live off chili dogs, you're going to get some plaque in your arteries, but it's not like that chili dog is going to be floating around in you for 20 years.
17:41🔗DrewThat's again that weird thinking that stuff is in your digestive tract.
17:46🔗DrewPeople don't understand how stuff is absorbed, what it's converted into. They've never had any chemistry.
17:50🔗AdamWell, look at it this way. If you're sort of light-headed enough, and that's as euphemistic a term as I can come up with, to believe that an enema is going to pull the toxins out of your body and make you feel 20 years younger, then you're light-headed enough that you mistake it for the placebo effect that it's going to have. Now you get the enema and you pop up and you go, I've never felt better. Listen, you've never felt better because no one's ever told you you've never felt better. Right. You know what I'm saying?
18:33🔗CallerBecause he's a jock and does football and wrestling and weight lifting all the time.
18:39🔗DrewHang on a second now. Adam, you were a jock. Yeah. If you had a girlfriend and you were 16, you'd miss her, you'd step out for about two months for football.
18:46🔗AdamWell, I never had a girlfriend when I was in high school. Well, I like to look at my left hand as my girlfriend.
19:00🔗AdamI'll talk to her. I call her Seniorita Wences.
19:09🔗AdamYou hung out with me every day in high school, even though I played football and baseball. Is that right? Is that right? There you go. She spoke. She went, What's that? No, no time for that. We'll do it on the ride home. She wanted to get back down to my pants. She's very lonely. She says she gets cold outside.
19:26🔗DrewI think there's something going on with this guy that he's not available to.
19:29🔗AdamIt's not that he hasn't had a boyfriend and girlfriend anymore.
19:44🔗CallerHe doesn't. And I've like talked to him every once in a while. I'm like, Okay, maybe we should split up. And he's like, No, I don't want to do that. Cause I love you.
20:14🔗AdamI know. But listen, when I have kids, if I grow up in a house, if they grow up in a house in the basement, I'm going to fill that thing. I'm just going to fill it. Yeah. I'll cement over the top of it.
20:26🔗DrewIt'll be like a tomb. It can't even be a, it can't even be, no, no, no, can't even be a space. They'll find their way in like rodents. Yeah.
20:33🔗AdamHey, listen. I was sometimes thinking about today as nothing to do with the basement. Remember all the time capsules that got buried in the 70s? Yeah. Around 76, 77, 78.
20:46🔗DrewIt's by the way when we thought we had reached the sort of pinnacle of progress. Right. We needed to document everything that was going on because we had it together then.
20:53🔗AdamI don't know if people know what time capsules are, though they're sort of self-explanatory, but no one seems to bury them anymore. There was a time, and it was really just like one year. I would say 78, 77, 78.
21:06🔗DrewIt was around, I think it might have been some of the 200-year anniversary of the country and stuff.
21:10🔗AdamYeah, okay, around 76. Somebody decided that we should take stuff that represented the particular time that we were in in history, put it in something and bury it so that people could dig it up in 50 years or 100 years. Now, this seemed like a good idea, let's say, 200 years ago, but when we have video footage of everything and TV commercials and archives, I mean, all I got to do is turn on Nick at Night and I'll watch an episode of Good Times and see what people were wearing in 1976. You know what I'm saying?
21:47🔗AdamSo people took like a Peter Frampton, 8-Track and a pair of culottes and some corkies and they buried them somewhere. And our school did that, too. My junior high did a time capsule. But then I thought, talking to a buddy of mine, who went to my junior high, and I said, when are we supposed to dig that goddamn thing up? I want to dig that up. And I don't want to dig it up after I'm dead. And I think they were talking about digging it up in the year 2000.
22:24🔗AdamAnd you know what it is? People think that some civilization is going to dig them up in a couple hundred years and learn something about man. Some construction crews are going to be laying a new sewer line. They're going to run into that thing. Some guy is going to pop it open and go, Hey, there's a track and a Barbie doll in here. Hey, chuck it in the dumpster, Stu. And they're just going to keep going. No one is going to make any sense of it.
22:47🔗DrewIt's a complete waste of time. It's an awful period of history.
22:49🔗AdamAll right. Yeah, what a time to bury junk. We should have buried stuff in the 30s.
22:54🔗DrewWe should have just buried it all. The impulse was right.
22:58🔗AdamJust put a 25-foot layer on the earth and start over again. Bury all that bad stucco and aluminum siding and all that good stuff. Jake? Yeah? You're 13? Yeah. You're seaming this green?
23:14🔗DrewYeah, we'll get back to you after the break. I'm going to be in the break at drdrew.com, the relationship chat room.
23:20🔗AdamGo ahead. What's going on with the man show? Is that show on now? It's on now? Good. We'll take a commercial. We'll be back. Okay.
23:29🔗DrewI call Billy Veridin. It's a breakdown product of blood oftentimes. It's something like when you bruise your arm after the purple fades, it gets yellow and then green. Yeah.
23:38🔗AdamHey, especially with old people. Doesn't seem to have an old people more.
23:52🔗DrewHe needs to see a doctor just to make sure it's checked out. It's unlikely to be anything. Blood in the seam is not an uncommon thing. It doesn't necessarily mean anything, but it's worth checking out. It can also be infection.
24:02🔗AdamLet's talk to Chris. Chris is 16. Chris?
24:46🔗DrewYou've been away too long. You've forgotten.
24:47🔗AdamA little reenactment. Is it a small high school? Yeah. How many people? Three thousand. That's a pretty big high school, isn't it? I guess.
24:55🔗DrewIt's about as big as it gets, yeah? Whatever.
24:57🔗AdamThere you go. All right. So anyway, big high school.
25:01🔗Yeah. And I guess. But about three and a half years ago, I started getting like when these people would die, I would get like this feeling like I have like this deja vu, like this dream before they do. And it doesn't like trigger it until I'm at like a wake or funeral or something that reminds me of them.
25:25🔗DrewSo you don't you don't actually have the dream before the the Yeah, I do. And you remember it and you say, gee, so-and-so is going to die because I just had one of those dreams.
25:36🔗DrewOr is it that you're sitting at the funeral and, oh my God, there's this dream I had. I'm just remembering it now. I forgot. I didn't remember it.
25:48🔗DrewThere are certain biological states that make people believe. I have a certain activity in the brain makes you feel like you're having an experience that you had before. There are certain things, certain partial complexes.
26:00🔗DrewI had one woman that, due to a certain auction problem delivered to the brain, felt like everything was a deja vu. She would go through days and days and days. I feel like everything she experienced was things she had already experienced.
26:31🔗AdamHow dare you? I served home to whack off, throw up and go to bed and salvage my dignity. Let me explain something else, a phenomenon that goes on. People do this. It's like after, when I took my dog to the vet and then my dog died at the vet, and I said and a couple other people who knew I was taking my dog to the vet said, I had a feeling, I had a feeling. Now here's the deal with the feeling. Every time you drop someone off at the airport, you get a little feeling. And every time you take your dog to the vet, you get a little feeling. And every time you take a loved one to the hospital for routine little surgery or something, you get a feeling. You get a feeling every time, every day. Every time your wife or husband or whatever gets in the car and is waving goodbye as they drive down the street, you get a little feeling. The problem is, is they pull up a half hour later with the cigarettes and ice cream and condoms and you lose that feeling. Unfortunately, once that every thousand times or five thousand or ten thousand times, they get killed in an accident and then you go, I knew it. Yeah. But you have that feeling every time. Every time you drop someone off the airport, it goes through your head. It's just when they call you from Chicago, You're fine. You're fine and you don't acknowledge that feeling. So then that's why everyone goes, Ah-ha!
27:54🔗DrewYeah. The feeling that little sort of what if has much more meaning when the what if becomes real.
28:00🔗AdamEvery time the phone rings after midnight at your house, you get that feeling. Yeah. For me, it's the hooker and needs directions. I get that feeling.
28:18🔗CallerI keep getting like every like, I don't know, so many months or whatever, like these pimples or like warts or something, like in the pubic area. And like they'll go, they'll be there for a week and then they'll go away.
28:29🔗DrewAre there pimples? Does this stuff come out of them if you squeeze them?
28:34🔗CallerI'm not really sure. No, it didn't look like it. I didn't try to squeeze them.
28:38🔗DrewDo they scrape off? What does it come on?
28:40🔗CallerNo, it's like they go, they come and they go away.
28:44🔗DrewWell, they're probably just basically like pimples, hair follicles that get infected.
28:48🔗CallerBecause they seem kind of like hard though.
28:50🔗DrewWell, hard ones, if they scrape off and a little hard thing comes off, that can be something called molluscum contagiosum.
28:56🔗DrewThat is an STD that's transmitted by virus.
28:58🔗AdamWhat are those hard things you get on your sack every once in a while? They look like a white head and you think you're going to pop it, but you can't pop it, it's like hard. Is that what that is? Could that happen?
29:11🔗DrewI've been down there before, I'll have to check it out next time you get one.
29:14🔗AdamOn my sack? Hey, next time you're down that way, check out my sack.
29:19🔗DrewI would check it, I checked it all out when I was down there.
29:22🔗AdamNo, here's the deal. Once, I used to do it like three times a day, but now I'm down to like a couple times a year. I give my nuts a good combing over.
29:34🔗AdamYeah, whenever I have some downtime. I give the sack a good combing over. It'll look, see what's going on down there. Once in a while, you see a little zit or whitehead or something down there and you pop that. You pop one and then there'll be another one. Looks exactly the same, but it's hard as rock and it ain't coming out.
30:15🔗AdamHow dare he? Dr. Marcel, when my junk was being checked by Dr. Drew and Dr. Marcel, if in fact, he is our actual doctor, he took it- Well, first off, Dr. Marcel's got way votes the size of Texas. He really does. He comes in here and I'm dropping my pants and Drew's checking my junk and he's spreading this acetic acid on it and he's shining a blacklight on it in a unsuccessful quest for warts, for venereal warts. You'd have a better chance to find the Loch Ness moss than you would finding warts on my penis. And the point is, is Marcel, he comes in here and he's like, Hey, I got my camera. Yeah? Yeah, I'll be taking some pictures. For what? For the website. You think you'll be taking pictures of my dork for the website? No big deal. Listen, you screwball. See, that's the problem. Let me tell you something. Here's the problem with plastic surgeons. They live in some sort of alternate universe and here's where it starts. Big busted women show up at their place and pull the shirt up over the head and pay them money. That's the first place that warps them. You know what I mean? Like Marcel probably goes to strip clubs and just sits there with his hand out.
31:40🔗AdamYeah, hey, give me some money. That's the first thing that screws up. Then the next thing is, so here's your job as a plastic surgeon. Big, busty, 19-year-olds show up who want a breast reduction, show up at your office, you tell them, hey, lose the top to it. The top comes off and they go, hold still, let me get a picture. Okay, so already their mind is warped. You know what I mean? They're in some sort of false universe.
32:07🔗AdamThat was nice of him. One of the things he could have left at home was a god damn camera. Then he comes in, he starts taking pictures, while my pants are around my ankles. I'm like, hey Marcel, are you high? And he's like, yes, but that has nothing to do with it. I'm taking these pictures. I said, Marcel, I will gladly sue Marcel.
32:25🔗DrewYou know we missed while you were gone with your negative, your positivity. You're so positive, such an upbeat guy.
32:33🔗DrewIt just stood out in bold relief against the show we had last week.
32:36🔗AdamOnly a plastic surgeon would be grandiose enough to think you can bring a camera to shoot a guy who's got his pants around his ankles.
32:45🔗DrewThink about it, does he ever do anything medical without shooting pictures?
32:49🔗AdamI know, that's the point. That's why he's in his own sort of visual field. His own fantasy land, that man. With his pinky rings and his tanning cream. Hey, is that Hailey?
33:17🔗AdamI went to Raiders camp and Jimmy inducted Frank Gifford into the man show hall of fame. That's right.
33:23🔗CallerOkay, I don't know if it's something that like happened in my childhood, childhood that's like making this happen, but I have like this, like, I'm like horny all the time.
34:18🔗DrewYou know, I was reading an article recently that used some terminology. I thought that was really interesting to the kind of stuff we deal with in the show. It talked about no one knows why this stuff really causes the kind of symptoms that Haley has. That why, if you have some awful sexual experience at age 7, with an adult that sets you off to compulsivity, by the age of 15 or whatever, they talked about establishing trajectories. Like if something happens and it just gets you going down that path. And there are two trajectories. It's the shutdown trajectory or the compulsive trajectory.
34:51🔗DrewAnd you just move down that path. And the more you move in that path, the more you do things that sort of solidify that trajectory and intensify it.
36:08🔗AdamIt's the Love Line. Adam Corolla. He is Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-E-191.
36:17🔗DrewA couple quick questions I got off the chat. One was long-term effective nitrous oxide. I have seen ascending neuropathies where people lose feeling and muscle activity in their starting in their feet, legs, ultimately their chest. They can't breathe, end up on ventilators. It can be a mess.
36:32🔗AdamJust talking about how much I loved that nitrous over the weekend.
36:35🔗DrewAnd I have seen psychoses. People get delusional after long periods of use. I don't know any long-term brain damage from it. And then also people ask how to handle cutters. If your friend is a cutter, how do you handle Jimmy?
36:45🔗AdamOh, Jimmy? Jimmy cuts farts. He doesn't cut on himself. Is that what you are talking about? Yeah. I don't know. I try to open the window. But here's the thing. When Jimmy farts in his car, I'm thinking about suing the automotive manufacturers for this device. Window locks and door locks.
37:05🔗DrewDoor locks, though, is the child lock that prevents you from getting out of the car. See, the diabolical thing is he must set that up before you get in the car. You know, it's a black latch inside the door itself.
37:16🔗AdamWell, once you set it up that way, it stays that way.
37:21🔗AdamWell, he probably got set up that way when he drove it home from the dealership, and it's always been that way. The point is, is he locks the door, he rolls the window up and locks it, he turns the heater on, and then he breaks wind. And it's bad, and I can't get out of the car.
37:35🔗DrewBut if you have a friend who's cutting on their wrists, just make sure they get the appropriate care and just be an available, empathic friend, that's all. Don't try to fix anything. And these people aren't trying to hurt themselves. It's a way of releasing certain kinds of feeling states, and just be available, that's all.
37:48🔗AdamYeah, and the other thing with the nitrous is, if you're getting root canal, I recommend it highly. Highly.
37:57🔗AdamYou got back to it? I did get a little wubba wubba wubba. It's kind of weird, yeah. It's better to freak out, though, than to, I don't know. I don't know. I just, I got the nitrous. And like I said, I was getting the root canal, and they were like, yeah, you can do it without nitrous. I was like, yeah, I don't want to do it without nitrous. Some people do it, you know, they could, you know, I'm like, listen, what is this? What am I, is this?
38:28🔗AdamHere's what I said about the dentist. Listen, attention. I got ahold of the PAs in. Attention. I am a pussy. Put that on, where's my record? Put that right on there. Put the big P stamp. I want the nitrous. I want everything.
38:43🔗AdamI don't have anything to prove at the dentist's office.
38:45🔗DrewYou freaked him out last time you had a bad trip and he doesn't know how to handle that.
38:49🔗AdamI did have a bad trip. You would too if you were listening to the Manhattan Transfers Christmas CD in the middle of August and this guy was scraping at your soul through a hole in your mouth.
39:01🔗DrewYelling mommy. Do you think he wants to go through that again?
39:03🔗AdamShut up. I didn't start yelling mommy. Eric?
39:48🔗AdamWho you work for? I have no idea. What is your rank? I have no idea. What country are you from? No idea.
39:57🔗CallerWell, I had like a real bad panic attack when I was like about 10 years old. I was like my heart was beating really fast and I was losing my breath. And my mom took me to the emergency room and they like just snap out of it. And like, I guess that's how they detected it from there. Because like ever since then, I had like recent attacks.
40:22🔗DrewWait a minute, did they do blood tests that checked you for Hepatitis C?
40:40🔗CallerOkay, but see, when that happened, my mom never got me like really treated for it.
40:45🔗DrewWell, you need to, Eric. You understand, it can lead to chronic liver disease, cirrhosis and even cancer and it is treatable and many times curable.
40:53🔗CallerOkay, because like I tell my mom about this, you know, I need to get treatment and she just like blows me off.
40:59🔗DrewI have to tell you, the diagnosis is sort of suspect because hepatitis C doesn't cause really any symptoms, maybe some weakness and that sort of thing. That's about it. So it certainly doesn't cause panic attacks, at least it shouldn't. So why they came up with that and what they were testing for, whether or not you've got misinformation.
41:15🔗AdamCan you have a panic attack at 10 anyway?
41:31🔗DrewYou've got to or a gastroenterologist. You've got to go, Eric, because at your young age, it's the years and years of that viral activity that causes the cirrhosis.
42:14🔗AdamCommander Nebula in the Disney cartoon, the what else? See what all that nitrous has done to me? In the Buzz Lightyear cartoon, it's going to be a Saturday morning cartoon. Right.
42:26🔗CallerThey also made a full length animated video for kids.
42:30🔗AdamAnd you know how Disney sends stuff straight to video every fifth whatever? Okay, that's what they did. Am I in that?
42:46🔗CallerBecause I remember you were saying that you were and then my brother had it and I was like, Oh, wait. Adam Carolla is on it. And then you're like, I hear you have like a weird voice but you could tell it's you.
43:21🔗AdamAll right. Now I got to watch this video. They gave me a DVD too. I'm going to get stoned and watch this when I get home and really freak out hard.
44:03🔗DrewWait, Ryan. But why is that? Why are you stressing to the point that you're sort of at 15 overachieving to the point that your body's telling you you're doing too much?
44:53🔗DrewI'm sitting next to you, where you just go out.
44:55🔗AdamOkay, hold on a second, wise ass. I have, okay, first off, okay, okay. How dare you? Listen to me. Listen to what I got in me. When I get on that airplane, I go to bed at 2 every night, right? Right. When we catch a 7 a.m. or 7.30 flight out of LAX to New York, I go to bed at 2, and I get up at 5.15 or 5.30. Right. So, I've slept for 3 to 3.5 hours that night. Then we get on the plane. Then I take an industrial strength prescription sleeping pill that the candy man, Dr. Drew, has got for me through a connection in the park and wash that down with booze, namely a couple of Bloody Marys. So this is two Bloody Marys and an industrial strength sleeping pill and three hours sleep the night before. And I'm still in and out, up most of, if it's a six hour flight, I'm up four and a half hours of that flight. And never not off for longer than 45 minutes at a time.
45:55🔗AdamWith the big lovey eye shade on and the earplugs and the head leaned back. Still, and I'm trying to fall asleep, I'm never down for more than a half hour at a time. Now that's enough to not...
46:05🔗DrewThat's better than I can do though, and I'm a sleeper.
46:07🔗AdamYou put that sleeping pill in you, a couple of Bloody Marys and give you three hours of sleep. Most people are going to go out for the duration of the flight. I go out for an hour and 15 minutes on a six hour flight. That's not a good sleeper. Okay, we'll be back.
46:56🔗AdamAnd I'm Adam Corolla. You're listening to Loveline on Lansing's 92.1 The Edge. Yep, it is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew. Phone number, 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1. Tuesday Night Coolio will be in here. Wednesday Night SR-71, and Thursday Night Cindy Margolis, who is the beautiful blonde who's got her own CBS Late Night TV show. All right, phone number, 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1. Forget about the fax number. Dr. Drew is going to come walking in to the studio in one second. He's watching a fabulous man show bit. Comedy Central, 10 o'clock, everyone, Sunday night. Tell your friends. Ashley?
48:11🔗CallerAnd so we went into our mom's bedroom, and I found her mom's vibrator. And I was like really, we were really close with her mom, and like, I don't know how to react for her mom now.
48:26🔗AdamWell, you have to confront her with the vibrator.
48:31🔗AdamAnd you were looking for socks in the upper shelf of her closet, in a hat box?
48:39🔗CallerNo, she ran out of socks, and it was in her dresser drawer.
48:42🔗AdamI see. All right. Well, here's the thing, Ashley. One day, you'll have kids. One day, you'll have a vibrator. And one day, you'll be thankful that they just forgot about it and didn't confront you about it. Do you know what I'm saying?
49:09🔗AdamThere's more adult moms who have these than you would know. So I say just forget about it. Or I got a better idea. Why don't you get a Marks a Lot pen and write, I know where you've been. I know what you did last summer.
49:49🔗AdamDr. Drew was watching. Dr. Drew and producer Ann have never seen the bit where me and Jimmy went over to Snoop Dogg's house and kicked it in his crib. I happened to have it floating around in the trunk of my car and busted it out for him.
50:03🔗DrewWhy do you giggle at everything? We were so dying.
50:06🔗AdamEnded up getting a little high with Snoop. Oh my God. Yeah, that ain't acting.
50:43🔗CallerMarch 25th, I was raped by my ex-fiance. I was with him for over five and a half years. And we were best friends for three years before then. Never once was he abusive or anything like that.
51:01🔗AdamHold on a second. You were best friends from like 12 to 15 or something, or like 11 to 14?
51:13🔗AdamI said best friends for three years. I said 12 to 15. That would be four years, but anyway. Best friends for four years.
51:23🔗CallerAnd then we were dating for the longest time and we got engaged for six months. Never once was he abusive towards me. Then he cheated on me. And I found out and he knows that I don't put up with that. We broke up, but I wanted still to be friends with him. And like three days later, I came up because we were in a, I live about three hours away from where he was living. I'm going to college. I came up to bring back all of his stuff. And during the week that I knew that something was going on because he wasn't returning my phone calls or anything, I was getting sick. And normally when I'm upset, I don't throw up or anything. So I thought I was pregnant. And I told him that when we broke up and he goes, I want you to go see, you know, a doctor, make sure. And I was unable to go see a doctor because I work 10, 12 hours and just never had time. Well, he decided to take matters in his own hands and hit me as hard as he could in the stomach to make me lose the child. And he bruised me so bad that I was bruised clear to my kidneys. I went in and saw a doctor. OK. And right after he did that, I was so much in shock. And he proceeded to rape me. And ever since then, I have not been able to get close to anybody again.
53:37🔗AdamAnd he socked you in the stomach and then raped you? By the way, what kind of strategy is that? I don't want you to be pregnant, so I'm going to rape you?
53:46🔗CallerI don't know. It doesn't make any sense to me.
53:49🔗AdamHe should have raped you and then socked you in the stomach. That's the way I do it. But Laura, why are you pushing away your friends at work?
53:59🔗CallerThey tried to set me up with their guy friends and one of them came on to me and I just about took his head off.
54:07🔗DrewWhy aren't you working on the rape issues?
54:10🔗CallerI have been. I can't talk to counselors right now. I'm shaking big time talking to you guys.
54:16🔗AdamHold on a second. Let me talk to Drew. Something's going on here. She's got energy. And let me explain. You can punch in the stomach and rape, you should be upset by this. You should be traumatized by this.
54:30🔗DrewYou should be going to the police. You should be in the therapist office every day.
54:33🔗AdamBut first off, there's not a guy who's a great guy for 10 years who socks you in the stomach and then rapes you.
54:43🔗AdamLet's hope he has a brain tumor. And then if everything's good for you and everything's good, and this happens from your fiance from the guy you've known for 10 years, it does not, your life doesn't come derailed. You're upset by it, you get some counseling, you report it to the police, you don't completely freak. You know what I mean?
55:10🔗AdamI mean, why was this, why did this find such fertile soil, this incident? Why did it send such a shockwave through you? I mean, I understand it was an upsetting incident, but why did it sort of ruin your life?
55:25🔗CallerBecause everybody I've tried to get close to has...
55:27🔗DrewNope, wrong answer. Hold on. That's not what Adam means.
56:22🔗DrewLaura, no, anything that happens now really is your responsibility, because you have a problem, it has a treatment, and if you don't take that treatment, all hell is going to break loose. Really, you're going to have lots of symptoms, you're at risk for depressions, you really must seek some help with this.
56:38🔗AdamYeah, you're 21, you take care of yourself, you go to the shrink. I was going to the shrink by 21.
56:44🔗DrewWell, but you weren't even, well, maybe you had been.
56:47🔗AdamMy dad socked me in the stomach, so I raped him. It's a little twist on the same story.
57:01🔗AdamListen, I've said this many a time, my parents, my family live in this town, they have radios and it's payback time. It is payback time, you should have thought of this. I've said it, I make no bones about this. I'll say it to their face, you should have thought of this. You really should have, you really should have thought that when you weren't cooking all those meals and you weren't saving for my college education and you weren't giving a rat's ass about me, you should have thought that I might get a radio show one day and pay your asses back. And today is that day. That's it, it's payback time. I ain't got no problem with that. There's zero problem with that. Why shouldn't I pay them back? Do you know what I'm saying? Listen all you crappy parents, I hope your kids get a national radio show and make you guys look like the asses you were. Why not? What's wrong with that? What is that? It's like we were like, oh how can you do that? How can I do it? It's easy. How could they not go to a Pop Warner football game? That's the question. Not, how can I pay them back? Please. No problem with that whatsoever. Zero. Zero. And you know what the other good thing about being raised by my family was? They can't say anything to me because it don't matter. Don't make a difference. Not bad people, good people, my family. But didn't do much for me and now it's payback time. Yeah. That's all. What's wrong with that, Drew?
58:32🔗DrewWe voted for them for president. You can go for them. It's going to give you your own chance.
58:34🔗AdamMy dad. How come more people can't be more honest about that?
58:38🔗DrewI'm just wondering what you're going to do this year.
58:40🔗AdamHow come more people can't be honest in that field?
58:44🔗AdamAbout that kind of situation. You know what I mean?
58:50🔗DrewI mean, why can't people get outrage for short calling? Because most people, first of all, people who idealize their parents and don't really see this as a whole. And secondly, people don't feel grandiose enough or self-righteous enough to sort of judge parenting, that people do the best they can.
59:11🔗AdamListen, I wouldn't judge my parent had there not been other parents or television. Raised in a vacuum, I'd probably think I had pretty good parents. But all I had to do was turn on the TV or go next door and realize what crappy parents I had. I'm now buying, I've just got done, I've just got done paying, this is an interesting thing. I just got done paying three months rent for one of my best friend's fathers, who's fallen on hard times.
59:41🔗AdamThis guy used to take me motorcycle riding, used to buy me dinner, used to buy me lunch. This guy, I owe $1500 to, at least. He took me motorcycle riding ten times. He took me out to eat a hundred times. And every time he took me motorcycle riding, my dad never gave me five bucks. He bought the dinner. Because my parents were just out of it, stupid and cheap. So I feel I owe the guy. And actually, as I told my dad, when I over a couple of glasses of wine one Thanksgiving, you owe the guy, not me. You owe him at least three grand worth of dinners. Because I ate dinner over there every other night from age 11 to age 17.
1:00:31🔗AdamRay's mom. Because I went over to his house and ate every other night too. My mom didn't cook and my dad didn't cook, and I go to my friend's house and eat, and now I'm paying back all of those families for all of the meals I went and ate at.
1:00:46🔗DrewProof positive for trickle-down economics, huh?
1:00:49🔗AdamYeah. I mean, listen, why... seriously, you guys, it's not my responsibility, but think of the math. You eat hundreds of meals at your buddies' houses. They eat no meals at your house, and you're good for two, three times a week for eight years. You don't think you own a refrigerator or a couple months' rent?
1:01:11🔗DrewThink of the abuse you suffered to raise hands. It's true.
1:01:17🔗AdamIt's like a sub-zero. I own a bar refrigerator. It's for his mom. Crystal? You're fourteen.
1:01:35🔗AdamDo you have friends? Start saving up. You can buy them a refrigerator or mobile home. They're parents later on in life.
1:01:44🔗DrewListen, the fact that you're asking that question now is real good and it decreases the risk of problems in your relationship as you grow up, but you're generally going to be finding yourself attracted to men that are like your dad, that are alcoholics. You might not even see the use. It may just be those qualities that people with that genetic makeup have that cause them to develop this disease or whatever issues emotionally he carries along. You may sort of identify those in another person without even realizing it and sort of be attracted to them. The only way you can really substantively change that is to get involved in either some treatment or go to Al-Anon, get a sponsor or Alateen and work a program and that will actually change you in a way that will make you have better and healthier choices in your relationship.
1:02:26🔗GuestMy dad won't let me get any sort of treatment I've asked him before.
1:03:07🔗AdamLike work, fix the lawnmower, build something, or fix the car, build a jungle gym, or a fake Christmas tree. Never done anything, ever. And I said, dad, you're coming to my house. I'm going to frame the garage. You're going to help me.
1:03:30🔗AdamAnd my dad is like he's, he's like, you know, more for more.
1:03:34🔗DrewWas it everything you thought it was? Or was it awful?
1:03:36🔗AdamNo, it was good. He hung out and just kept me company. I was up on the scaffolding. I said, dad, give me the caulking gun. He looked at me with this blank stare. There's that orange thing over there. I go get that one.
1:03:47🔗DrewI ran into a contractor. I was at a car washing. I came up to him and he talked about how they liked the show and stuff. I said, no, yeah. Adam was ranting and raving about his plans and the fact that what do they call the holds?
1:04:02🔗DrewI tried describing to him the guy and he goes, the HDs. He goes, he didn't know he needed six of those in that sign? He's like, hey, it's contract. It's earthquake. He says contractor?
1:04:10🔗AdamYeah, 12, 12 HDs in a three-sided garage. Please, I dare you to talk to him about that. Chris? Yeah. You're 18. What's up?
1:04:26🔗CallerFirst of all, I'd just like to say Dr. Drew, there's a really good thing you're doing and I've listened to your show since I was in seventh grade.
1:04:33🔗CallerAnd Adam, I was on the freeway going to the Golden Gate Bridge in traffic and I saw you up with my girlfriend and her parents. You were with Jimmy Kimmel in the convertible, in the red Mustang.
1:04:48🔗AdamThat was you. What? Wait. You were driving with your driving your parents?
1:05:30🔗AdamYeah. You end up talking to people while you're driving. How's it going? Hey, good. What are you doing? About 80. Fantastic. Hey, you're drunk? Yeah. Hey, hand me that beer. What are you having? Yeah, you end up talking to people. But anyway, we talked to Chris.
1:06:05🔗CallerMy question is, about four nights ago, my girlfriend and I were having sex, and I was using a condom, and I guess about halfway through 15 minutes, it came off, but I didn't know this. And what happened is, I came, and then she got up...
1:06:25🔗DrewMental note, halfway through was 15 minutes.
1:06:28🔗CallerYeah. Hey, man. Damn, that's all about that. And anyways, so she went to go, I don't know, to the bathroom and clean herself off, and I looked down, and I don't have the condom on me anymore. And I'm like, girlfriend, I'll leave her name out, but I'm like, I don't know what the condom is. And she, I guess, looked down at herself, and there was semen, like dripping down from her or whatever. Nice.
1:06:58🔗AdamI thought there was that ghost story where there was a hook hanging from her vulva.
1:07:03🔗CallerSo I looked around the bed, and we really started freaking out, and we guessed it might have gone up inside her. And so I'm like, it has to be inside you, because it's not on the bed or anything. And so she started, like, Butler in the Library. Hugging at herself, like inside, and it started bleeding and stuff. We really started freaking out. It was like blood everywhere. And then eventually the, like, stopped, and I calmed her down, and I stuck, like, my middle...
1:07:35🔗CallerNo, not a tongue. My middle thing up, and I spelt it. It was way up, and I eventually pulled it out, and it was in this little ball. So, I don't know, like, if I caused any damage, because it was, like, really far up there. No.
1:07:52🔗DrewLook, it happens all the time, Chris. All the time.
1:07:56🔗DrewShe could be pregnant. That's the bigger issue. You need to get that morning after pill. If it's been within 72 hours, you've got to do that, because that's an unprotected encounter.
1:08:04🔗AdamBefore or after we saw you on the bridge?
1:08:23🔗AdamYeah. It's a good place. Hey, listen, any political officials that may be listening to the show, government types, mayors of cities, governors, things like that, when you take a city or a province and you make it sort of very friendly to street people, guess what you get?
1:08:51🔗AdamLots of street people. You want to go, one of the most progressive places, there's two very progressive places in California. One is Santa Monica, the other is San Francisco. And what do you got? Tons of street people. I mean, you're walking through upscale areas of downtown San Francisco. You know, you got a gap in a pottery barn and you're just being accosted by street people. And, hey, I don't want to be cruel, but listen, here's the idea with street people. Get them off the street. Not make them comfortable while they're on the street. And all you idiots that are sort of advocates for homeless rights, you got the wrong idea. Get off the street. Don't get them sleeping bags and let them crap in the park. Get them some medication to help with the voices. Get them a job and get them off the street. Don't just make it easier for them to stay on the street. It's like, you think you're doing them a favor by making them easier to be on the street. It's like, if you have people who are bad students and missing a lot of school, should you just make it easier for them to get bad grades and shorten the school day so they don't miss as much?
1:10:12🔗DrewHey, that was the direction the schools were going.
1:10:15🔗DrewOh, that's how you ended up not reading.
1:10:16🔗AdamThat's why I can't learn to read. That's why I don't know how to read. Well, it worked then. But look at me. I'm a millionaire. Literally, a millionaire, everybody. All right, we're going to take a little break when we come back and speak to Rosie, who's 23. All right, well, don't put the sticker there. Lisa is 24. I want to know what are some signs of nymphomania after this.
1:10:41🔗CallerLove Live, we'll be right back. Call on the 1-800-LOVE-191.
1:11:13🔗AdamYeah. Here is Loveline, Adam Carolla, and it's Dr. Drew over there. Ah, I forget about that phone number. All right, let's hop back on the phones and speak to Lisa. Lisa? Lisa. Lisa. Yeah, 24. What's up?
1:11:35🔗CallerWhat's up? Um, yeah, I just want to know if there were like certain signs of, you know, if you can tell if you're a nymphomaniac or not.
1:11:44🔗DrewWell, there's really no such term as nymphomaniac.
1:11:58🔗DrewWell, sexual compulsive is usually somebody who can't be satisfied by sex and who continually thinks and does it in spite of not wanting to, really, and doing it in ways that is not sort of the way you wish it would be and expressed in ways that are appropriate for you. It's just that they're compulsively acted out. And usually that person has a history of sexual abuse in childhood, or at least physical abuse in childhood.
1:12:44🔗CallerI don't want to get into that. I don't want to, like...
1:12:48🔗AdamAll right. Well, listen. You have to be able to articulate yourself or I can't talk.
1:12:52🔗DrewAll right. And then sex addiction is a little bit different, often the same history there, but there's progressivity and increasing consequences in spite of a desire to stop.
1:13:00🔗AdamAll right. So listen. Anything you have to do as opposed to want to do...
1:13:07🔗DrewAnd if it's progressing and things are happening in your life as a result, you want to stop, but these things keep happening and get worse, that's addiction.
1:13:15🔗AdamOkay. It's never too late to start, though, I'll tell you that. Rosie?
1:13:35🔗DrewIt's just that she's got a different kind of causes to go with that. It's going to take forever if we... You want to gamble? It's easy. It's a layup.
1:15:32🔗AdamWhat's up with your boyfriend? Come on, get to the question.
1:15:35🔗GuestHe's 23 and he was just diagnosed with stomach cancer a couple months ago. Well, he's been kind of depressed and they want to put him on Prozac, the doctor.
1:16:01🔗DrewWell, maybe he ought to talk to the doctor about seeing a psychiatrist and if Prozac particular is a drug that scares you, there are many other alternatives out there.
1:16:47🔗DrewSo, but, Rosie, have them actually see a psychiatrist and then they can talk about the different medication that might be more helpful to him.
1:16:53🔗AdamAnd really, don't read. It poisons the mind.
1:16:57🔗DrewListen, he needs to be comfortable. He's going through some very heavy stuff and he needs help.
1:17:01🔗AdamYeah, him getting hooked on the Prozac is probably the least of his worries right now.
1:17:05🔗DrewThere is no hooked on Prozac. That is the least of his worries.
1:17:58🔗AdamNot so much of that going on anymore either.
1:18:00🔗DrewWith the chimpanzee accent climbs into the... It's always just a bell with a little bit of screen on it.
1:18:07🔗AdamSure. Well, listen, here's the deal. Straight wire has no scientific use at all. But when you curl it up around something, all of a sudden, you can transport yourself back in time. You can take your brain and put it in someone else's brain. It's the curling of the wire that actually... And I don't know why scientists today aren't focusing on the curling of things, whether it be wire or tubing. Straight tubing? Nothing. Curled tubing. Now you got a time machine. Curled glass tubing and curled wiring. That means you're really on to something. All right, so Emily, I'm not attracted to anyone at 15.
1:19:25🔗CallerYes, sir. Here's the problem. I go through my daily routine, working five days a week. Doesn't matter for my work at the store, getting groceries, buying clothes. I'm always thinking about women. You know, to the point where it interferes, where I'm tired of thinking about that, you know, sitting there talking to them or whatever it may be. With this pretty looking woman sitting in front of you, and you got to think about, you know, boy, what she looks like, maybe naked or what she's like in bed, you know. I'm tired of thinking of that, you know, it's interfering with what I'm doing.
1:21:45🔗AdamAnd so do you think, like, you know, Larry Flynn's in a wheelchair, but he can ejaculate.
1:21:52🔗CallerNo, that's not possible from my side.
1:21:54🔗DrewYou sure? Even though you don't feel it, sometimes it's possible for it to occur. It's a spinal reflex. And maybe that would help.
1:22:01🔗AdamThe point is, I mean, you're rolling around. You're like a, you know, a time bomb rolling around. Yeah, you're saying. Ready to explode. I mean, listen, if I didn't whack off for five years, that's right, I'd be banging. There's a knot hole in a fence. I put my penis to it and try to rape it. Maybe that's what's going on.
1:22:22🔗CallerWell, that seems to be the case, but I want to know what I can do about it.
1:22:26🔗AdamWell, how about looking into, you know, procedures and surgeries and all that stuff?
1:22:32🔗CallerI mean, what about, I'm thinking is my testosterone levels is too high?
1:22:48🔗DrewYou need to talk to your doctors about this.
1:22:49🔗AdamDo me a favor. Talk to a doctor who's a specialist about this and look into the possibilities.
1:22:57🔗DrewBecause there is stuff that can be done.
1:22:58🔗AdamI'm telling you, Larry Flint is on this show and he's told me, he's paralyzed and he's told me about his erection more times than I care to admit.
1:23:17🔗AdamWell, how it helps you, I hate to be mean to guys in wheelchairs, but I'm this close. How it helps you is you relive a little tension by looking into this situation. Maybe you can have an orgasm eventually. It's something you should look into and then once you have that orgasm, you no longer are feeling quite as pent up and preoccupied with the ladies. All right.
1:23:57🔗AdamI had a neck rash and mad at the world. I'm angry. I walk around with a chip on my shoulder and a rash on my neck. If I was in a wheelchair, forget it.
1:24:30🔗AdamYep, it is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla, that is Dr. Drew over there. Coolio, later in the week. Cindy Margolis, the number one downloaded internet pinup girl of all time. Is gonna be in here also later in the week. And we're gonna hop back on the phones and speak to Scott. Scott is 32 years old. Scott?
1:24:59🔗CallerWell, it's all right. I just want to let you know that I love your show. I have nothing but the highest thought for you and Dr. Drew. And I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. And man, you just experience some great weather.
1:25:14🔗AdamYeah, it's pretty... Thank you for the ask. It was very spectacular there.
1:25:31🔗CallerWell, I wanted to see what Dr. Drew really thought about methadone maintenance. I know he pretty much opposes it from what I've heard of in the past.
1:25:40🔗AdamDrew is not a huge fan of the methadone maintenance.
1:25:45🔗CallerYeah, I'm currently in my eighth month, and I've been an opiate addict since the age of 21. So I was really wanting to know. I've been on methadone now for eight months, like 80 milligrams a day.
1:26:06🔗CallerI wanted to know if, you know, is there a time that maybe Dr. Drew thinks that I should maybe hang it up? Because I've been thinking about...
1:26:16🔗DrewWell, you're on maintenance, which is thought to be really a lifelong treatment.
1:26:21🔗AdamWhat is it? What's the sensation of the methadone, Scott?
1:26:41🔗AdamEven if it's not a high, maybe any sensation is a high, but no sensation. You don't feel slowed down or sped up or anything like that?
1:26:51🔗CallerSometimes when you first start on the program, you know, you will actually, some people get sped up. In my case, I actually, I did feel kind of like a little, almost like the starting of maybe a little euphoric feeling.
1:27:08🔗DrewWell, most people don't feel good on it. And it is a harm-avoidance strategy. It's a way of saying, well, this person is basically untreatable or they might die of their disease or they are going to waste a lot of time and money trying to get better and not really do it. So why don't we just do something simpler and just sort of keep them out of harm's way and kind of let them go on with a life with a chronic disease. That's okay. And there is something to that because the ability for people to stay sober from heroin and to really follow directions is extremely difficult, extremely difficult. And you would have to be in treatment for a long time. You would have to go in to a hospital. The detox from methadone could take up to six weeks, though generally takes about ten to fourteen days.
1:27:49🔗AdamAll right. Well, he's been on the methadone maintenance. Should you do it for a little while longer and then try to get off of that?
1:27:53🔗DrewI would hope that when he has the time and is extremely motivated and he has resource, go into an inpatient setting and then plan to spend about six months in a sober living and really get treatment for this illness.
1:28:04🔗AdamDifferent treatment to get off of methadone than off of heroin?
1:28:07🔗DrewIt takes longer. That's all. Same treatment.
1:28:16🔗AdamYou want to have sex but are scared to talk. You want to have sex with who?
1:28:21🔗GuestYes. Okay, well this is the thing. We met in high school, right? In high school, we didn't need to talk or anything and it so comes that last year...
1:28:39🔗GuestAnd at first, it was all right, cool, everything right. But just a couple of months ago, he started asking me if I wanted to have sex with him. I had, I didn't answer him. You know, I just told him that, you know, it takes the subject, talk about something else. And the thing is, there's times when I do, right, I like this person, he doesn't know that I like him. And I haven't told him.
1:29:04🔗AdamHey, how about we have sex? What about this NAFTA thing? You think that's working out, or is it paying dividends? What do you stand on that? That kind of thing?
1:30:13🔗AdamHold on a second. You're screwing up my radio math. 5'2, and a quarter, 142. So a little bit on the husky side. But that shouldn't be a reason why you can't have a boyfriend. Why have you never had a boyfriend in your 25 years? All right, well, let's not count the first five. Why have you never had a boyfriend in the last 20 years?
1:30:35🔗GuestI don't trust guys. I mean, you know, everybody talks to me.
1:31:15🔗AdamFind a guy, start dating him, have a relationship. Don't get into some sort of sexual maintenance thing with some friend of yours who just wants sex.
1:31:24🔗DrewBe careful. The kind of guy she's going to trust is the kind of guy that's going to abandon. You know what I mean?
1:32:01🔗AdamI think that was profanity. What do you think?
1:32:03🔗DrewI couldn't hear it. I think I heard the F word.
1:32:06🔗AdamIs there the F word in there? You know, it was fun. I did an interview, uh, I don't know when, a couple weeks ago. And I was like, oh, I'm going to go to the gym. I don't know when, a couple of weeks ago. And they're asking me, you know, TV's getting racy now. And man shows are racy, and South Park's racy, and there's all these sort of realistic shows on TV, and there's more profanity, and there's more nudity, and it's racier. And why aren't people more upset about it? How come people aren't more outraged? And I said, well, see, people say the F word in real life. All the time. I use the F word 750 times a day, and that's a lie. I fornicate. I, okay, I masturbate. I take a crap. I don't call it poo poo or caca. I call it the S word. And so does everybody. So the reason we're not that upset when we see it on TV or hear about it on TV is because that's our life. We've been waiting for TV to catch up. Now when it passes us, then we'll be upset, but it is still 20 years behind us. You know what I'm saying? And that's why people aren't that upset. I don't know why it triggered that, but we'll take a break and we'll think about it.
1:33:42🔗AdamThank you very much. All right. That is it for the fan of this Loveline. We'll be back tomorrow night for another fantabulous show and until next time, this is Adam Corolla with Dr. Drew saying mahalo. This has been Loveline.
1:33:56🔗CallerThe opinions expressed on the show are not necessarily those of the staff, management, sponsors or this station. The producer for Loveline is Ann Wilkins Engel.
1:34:05🔗CallerLoveline is a presentation of Westwood One Entertainment.
