1:00🔗VoiceoverListener discretion is advised. Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew Loveline, Coast to Coast.
1:12🔗AdamIt is Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla, it's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-L-V-E-1-9-1, fax number 310-8-5-4-4-4-5-5, Dr. Drew's a board certified physician and addiction medicine specialist. And tonight we have a couple of gold medalists, which I don't think we've had on this show, at least since I've been here. Do they have anything under bronze? Because that would be what our normal guest would be on this show. Dain Blanton and Eric Fonoimoana.
1:40🔗AdamYeah. Enjoy it because I'll screw it up as the night wears on. These guys won the gold in Sydney in the beach volleyball two-manor. And you guys, if anyone watched the Olympics or even has a newspaper, I'm sure they know what I'm talking about. And I watched this and it was a pretty big upset, wasn't it?
2:00🔗GuestYeah, it was a huge upset. The Brazilians had kind of dominated the last two, three years on the world circuit. And the team we actually ended up playing in the finals, we had never beat. But we brought out one of our best games ever and took home the gold.
2:26🔗GuestIt's just a matter of... But when we did play them, they didn't kill us. It was more like we played a 15, win by two, and they beat us 15-12 probably three times, maybe lost 15-13 another time.
2:39🔗AdamDid beach volleyball originate in the United States?
2:43🔗GuestI think it did. I think on the beaches of Southern California was where it was first played. But nowadays, it's worldwide and every other country has caught up to us, and it's very competitive now.
2:56🔗AdamIt seems, and by the way, can't we do that with soccer?
3:00🔗AdamYou know what I mean? Every time I say to somebody, we have the best athletes in the world, why aren't we winning in soccer? And people go, oh, they've been playing for years over there, and we've only been playing for 30. And I go, okay, but that seems like enough. And they go, no, no, it's got to take a couple hundred years before we can get up to that point. But beach volleyball is something that wasn't played internationally very much except for the last what? How many years do you think? I mean, they've caught up pretty fast.
3:25🔗GuestYeah, probably the past 20 years, but it's a different game than we play here on the States. There's different rules, and Dain and I just abide by them. But as far as soccer goes, I think our best athletes go into baseball and the big money, you know, basketball and football.
3:44🔗AdamThat's what Drew says when I complain to him about this. But then I always think about it. That's why we always complain about foreign drivers here. You know what I mean? We've been driving for years. Our grandparents drove. You know what I mean? These guys came over from somewhere in China. Their grandparents drove rickshaws. And of course, we can't expect just a first or second generation motorist to keep up.
4:08🔗AdamNo, I think about this when I drive. I shouldn't be angry at my brother because the reason this guy is a horrible driver is the reason we get our ass kicked in soccer.
4:19🔗AdamBut not in volleyball. These foreigners catch up fast, but thank God we brought home the gold. And what are the beach... Since when has beach volleyball been an Olympic sport? It's very new, isn't it?
4:34🔗GuestYeah, the first time was in 1996, and this is the second time around. Me and Eric didn't play in 96. It was our first Olympics as well, but it was put in right away as a gold medal sport in 1996.
4:47🔗AdamAnd so it was a trial sport? Oh, you're saying it went in immediately. It wasn't a trial sport. And how do they figure out what's gonna be a trial sport? I thought all of them had to be a trial sport for one Olympic season. They just decided to muster this one right in?
5:03🔗GuestYeah, the guy that runs the FIVB is pretty powerful. And he pushed hard and got it in. I think he's pretty tight with IOC. So we were real fortunate in that aspect to get in right away and not have a trial period. We were right in there.
5:17🔗AdamAnd you guys were, I mean, kind of the dark horses of this volleyball, Olympic volleyball season, right? I mean, you guys weren't supposed to even medal, were you?
5:29🔗GuestWell, I think, Dan, I believe we can medal.
5:31🔗AdamWell, who cares what you are? You guys, of course, you always think that, or you might make the trip. But I mean, no one else, not even your immediate family, right?
5:39🔗GuestNo, I think we had an opportunity and we made the best of it. And, you know, just believed in ourselves. And I think that's probably the most important thing.
5:47🔗AdamI'll tell you, there's, you know, the worst part I could imagine would be going in as a heavy favorite and not coming home with anything. I mean, you're the dream team basketball team. You beat a country by eight points and people are pissed off. You know what I'm saying? But this has got to be the sweetest.
6:03🔗GuestYeah, it was sweet. Like you said, we went in and we didn't have a lot of media pressure. People weren't putting a lot of pressure on us to do well. Like you're talking about the dream team. If they do anything other than first, they failed their task. And a lot of people are disappointed.
6:17🔗AdamEven first isn't good enough if it's not by big enough margin.
6:21🔗GuestRight, right. And the Brazilians had that type of pressure. Everybody had favored them to win. So they had a lot of pressure on them. So we didn't, other than the pressure that we put on ourselves, which was pretty big, but...
6:33🔗AdamYou guys have a lot of endorsement deals and that kind of stuff. I mean, you're both good looking guys and you're young. And I imagine there's Madison Avenues come calling. Am I right?
6:44🔗GuestYeah, things are happening. And hopefully bigger things will happen. But I'm in between sponsorship deals. We're both sponsored by Oakley. But yeah, things definitely change when you win a gold medal.
6:58🔗AdamWhat's, have you had any bizarre, you know, you know what I like? I like when companies that have nothing to do with beach volleyball or whatever the sport is try to get the endorsement of the guy. You know, it's like, and they make that awkward transition where they go, you know, after years on the PGA circuit, I can appreciate a good wood burning log, a good man made. And that's why I choose DuraFlame logs. So, DuraFlame, Hole in One with me. You know what I'm talking about? You got anything weird, any, any products?
7:32🔗GuestNot as of yet. I mean, we really, we'd hope to do something like DuraFlame.
7:35🔗DrewThey're wanting something weird, you see?
7:37🔗AdamWell, you guys, you must have immediately got, did you have managers and agents and people approaching you?
7:43🔗GuestLike we both have managers and agents right now. So now we're going after companies and companies, instead of closing their door, they're actually opening them and opening them wide.
7:54🔗AdamIs there a sort of thing where you have to sort of strike while the iron is hot?
7:59🔗GuestI think so. I think you have to capitalize on it.
8:04🔗AdamShut Drew's mic. I'm trying to conduct an interview here, Drew.
8:08🔗GuestYeah, I think it's hot and you need to ride the wave, but the unique thing about the Olympics is it comes only every four years. So for the next four years, we're sure to be the top team on the last Olympics, right?
8:21🔗AdamRight. And do you want to do the, what is it, 2004 Olympics? Well, they could do the winter. Who knows? Do you want to do it or is it too early to think about it?
8:35🔗GuestIt's never like too early to get into 2004, but we're going to enjoy our 2000 win in four years, we're, I'm sure we'll be better veterans than we are now and better at the game of volleyball and probably a lot smarter, so sure, we'd love to go for it again.
8:52🔗AdamDid you guys have girlfriends before you went to Sydney? Because I know you don't now. I mean, talk about, I mean, this is, this has to be one of the biggest trim sports there is, this beach ball. If you think about it, do you know what I mean? As far as, this is the physique that women are looking for. We always yell this.
9:11🔗AdamWe yell this at guys all the time who say, I'm 5'9, and I'm lifting a lot of weights, and I'm 2'35, and I want to get up to 2'50, and I always tell them that chicks don't want that. They want long and lean, but you guys playing your underpants, so it's like, I mean, imagine a sport in terms of, it's like an advertisement for single men. There you are, you're wearing a pair of trunks, you're all greased up, you got some cool sunglasses on, and you're diving in the sand. I mean, women are going through panties watching this. I mean, what other sport, what other sport, you're playing out in the sun, you're all greased up and your shirt's off. You know what I'm saying, Drew?
9:51🔗GuestIt's definitely a sex appeal sport, but I have a fiancee and we're getting married soon. Oh, okay. So, yeah, that's a good thing.
10:02🔗AdamShe's listening, I see. And Dain, what about you? You're playing the field, right? You're not stupid.
10:11🔗GuestI am single right now. Okay. But I'm no fiancee and I'm not ready to get married yet. Eric's got a few years on me. I figure I'll be there when I'm his age.
10:23🔗AdamNow, when you go out clubbing, do you bring the gold medal? I mean, I know you bring it with you, but do you wear it outside of the jacket or do you tuck it in the shirt and let it sort of fall out halfway into the jade?
10:36🔗GuestI think I should let you borrow it for a night.
10:38🔗AdamOh my God, drop it right down my pants. Listen, I got a surprise for you. Just look down there. Come on, come on. All right. Eric had brought the gold medal. Is that true?
11:40🔗GuestTook it right after and got it engraved. They do engraving right after for your name, but everything else is all finished.
11:46🔗AdamSo they have the Beach Volleyball Men thing, and what about the... I'm going to keep this. What about the gold medal itself? Does this look the same as every other gold medal? They're all the same.
12:00🔗GuestThey just have the different event on the back, and if you want to put your name on the back also, you can engrave it as you were there, though.
12:08🔗GuestEvery Olympics, the front of the gold has that goddess on the front. I'm not sure what her name is, but that's how the front of all the gold medals are. They definitely change them up every four years.
12:21🔗GuestOh, so this is the front here and then the back is the...
12:28🔗AdamThat is beautiful. Those Aussies have gotten so much mileage out of that opera house. Is there any other structure, freestanding structure in Sydney or in all of Australia? Because there's nothing that exists without that in the background. You know what I mean? Every picture, every logo, every insignia, every brochure, everything, there is that goddamn opera house back there. Did you guys speak into that? Did you guys get over there? Did you have? Now, you guys won. How much time after you guys won, did you hang out for a few days before you came back?
13:02🔗GuestWe were there for a couple of days. We had some family and friends there to celebrate with us. But we didn't meet, I assume, as we were done. We went to a place, AT&T had this unbelievable place that took care of our family and friends. They fed them. They had the Internet, so you can communicate back at home. Right. But we got to see Darling Harbor. We got to see the Opera House. We went to the zoo. We saw a little bit, but we were really focused on the rent.
13:36🔗GuestYeah, one of the biggest things, I think, or the funnest things after was Sports Illustrated threw a real big party, and that was a blast, right across from the Opera House. So we never actually, or I never did, I don't know if Eric did, got to the Opera House, but I did a ton of stuff right around it, everything. Yeah.
13:52🔗AdamAnd, you know, I imagine in your sport, unlike maybe track and field or boxing or something, you didn't grow up dreaming of the Olympics.
14:01🔗GuestNo, well, I mean, it wasn't available, exactly. But, I mean, you always dreamed about being in the Olympics and being an Olympian, and then eventually, hopefully, make become a medalist. But, no, it wasn't available and kind of just hope for it.
14:15🔗AdamAnd what about indoor volleyball? Do you think about that? Do you play that? I mean, could you go out for that Olympic team? Not that you'd want to, but...
14:26🔗GuestYou know, when I grew up, I started playing volleyball at about 12, and I was playing on the beach down on Laguna Beach. And as you grow up, you start playing club volleyball and high school volleyball and college volleyball, and that was all the traditional six-person indoor volleyball. But as soon as I graduated in 94, I knew I wanted to play on the beach. I didn't want to play indoor anymore, and I think that was the same with Eric.
14:49🔗GuestYeah, I mean, the indoor guys are big. They're like 6'8, and they're... It's not a whole lot of fun, I don't think, because you specialize in what you do indoors. You're either a big middle blocker or you're an outside hitter who passes. And beach volleyball, you're well-rounded. You gotta be a good passer, you gotta be a good hitter, you gotta be a good setter. If you're not, then you're picked on, you know, whatever your weakness is, and they exploit it. And then pretty much if you have any weakness, you're out of the game.
15:17🔗AdamThe thing about playing on the sand, though, is it's like a bad dream. You know when you have a bad dream and some giant's chasing you, and you're running in something but you're not getting anywhere? I mean, trying to jump up when you're in sand and get over that net, it seems almost impossible. Drew, I know you've played a fair amount of beach volleyball.
15:38🔗AdamDo you guys meet over at the Rusty Pelican for a smart cocktail after a good day of spiking or anything? You guys don't know each other from the circuit?
15:46🔗DrewWere you at the main beach that we played at?
15:59🔗CallerNot much. Well, I started out most of my life as a right-handed masturbator and after I started taking antidepressants, it's been about six months, I've only been able to masturbate with my left hand.
16:20🔗AdamI'd bring home a lot more in the gold. I'd bring home some crabs and a hamper. Yeah, and he switched. And now what?
16:29🔗CallerWell, my question is, I mean, obviously, it's pretty clear that there are some weird sexual side effects from antidepressants, but you know, I've definitely experienced those, but it's just like it was totally, it seems coincidental, I guess, but it's just a bizarre thing. It seems like it's just seems like I'm trying to hit lefty when I was right handed, you know, batters. You know, it's like I throw a ball at my...
17:01🔗CallerI've been sober for about a year and a half.
17:04🔗AdamListen, if it's uncomfortable, why don't you just get back to the hand God intended you to whack off with, which is your right hand.
17:11🔗CallerMy point is I can't masturbate with my right hand anymore now that I've taken the antidepressant. It's just a very bizarre thing and I wanted to... I was curious if Drew had any explanation for what causes like the lack of sexual, you know, lack of inability to get and have an orgasm on your right side. It's just in general. It just doesn't feel right with my right hand.
17:33🔗DrewThe whole change in your libido, change in your arousal cycles, change in your orgasmic function...
17:38🔗AdamHow do you account for the fact that it works with his left hand?
17:40🔗DrewThese are what we call levo-isomers. They're left-handed isomers. Are you a chemist, Dave?
17:48🔗DrewBut the fact is that that's just some sort of weird coincidence. It's all a result of the... Try both hands. I have my own simultaneously.
17:55🔗AdamYeah, I tried both hands once and my nuts looked up to me when... Who are you kidding? Penis is laughing its ass off. You barely need one hand. You could use a back scratcher.
18:18🔗AdamFantastic. I'm a left-handed guy, but I'm going to start working out with my right hand. As an athlete, you guys know the importance of being able to use both hands. But I'm an ambidextrous. As I'm getting older, if I have a stroke and my left side becomes paralyzed, I'll use my right hand to kill myself. You understand? I'm going to have to get good with that thing. Jennifer, you're 26. What's up?
18:45🔗CallerMy question is, I've been with my fiancé for about five and a half years. We have two kids together. They're four and three. Him and my sister betrayed me in July. They had sex together. And it was probably one of those things where, you know, when you do something and you're like, oh, what are we doing? We're not supposed to be doing this. One of those things. And now my mother thinks that...
19:10🔗AdamWait a minute. They realize they weren't supposed to be doing it?
19:15🔗DrewAt one point, actually, I realized that... When did they sort of see through the subtleties of the situation and realize that perhaps this was not an appropriate behavior?
19:23🔗AdamI'll do a little audio recreation. Hey, this is wrong. That's how it works. It's not halfway into it. It's not when he's saying, hey, liquor store's still open. I can get you more wine coolers. Okay, just hang tight. I'll be back in 20. No, that... It's not that part. It's just seconds after the orgasm.
19:46🔗DrewIt's such a subtle issue. I mean, a goofed sister.
19:49🔗AdamRight. And yes, it could go either way. It's a really judgment call. Flip a coin whether you should bang your fiancé's sister or not. Many cultures have accepted and embraced. Where's this guy from?
20:39🔗CallerYeah, my sister still... Well, she doesn't deny it anymore, but she just recently, probably about a week ago, two weeks ago, apologized to me and admitted to it.
20:48🔗AdamOkay, but why do you think he brought it up?
20:52🔗CallerWhy? Well, because that night I was there. We were at my mother's, and she has a bunch of land, and I just had this funny feeling, and I fronted him with it. He denied it.
21:04🔗CallerNo, I did not find them together, but afterwards they decided, oh, we're still going to talk outside, and then I woke up and seen them talking, and I just thought, this is kind of strange, and then basically I knew something had happened, my mom knew something had happened, and then...
22:03🔗AdamLet's not rush to judgment. First off, Drew, you have sex with one fiancee's sister and immediately you get labeled. Do you know what I'm saying?
22:13🔗CallerWas my dad? I think he was when I was, you know, a child, but now I don't have a relationship with my father.
22:19🔗AdamOh, okay. Well, so no damage done. Okay. Listen, Jennifer, listen, screwball. They really got to start having IQ tests for kids because you're going to screw those kids up faster and you got screwed up. Listen to me. This guy's in trouble. How?
22:36🔗AdamYou got another a-hole on your hands here. You got a guy who was having sex with your sister. Now you got two kids with the guy who had sex with your sister as their dad and a completely oblivious mom, which is you, as the mother. You got to take care of these kids. The first thing you got to do is not expose them to guys like this.
23:26🔗DrewNo, no. I really feel strongly about that.
23:28🔗AdamI know. Drew has told me... I've said to Drew quite a few times in the back of limousines and Parts Unknown, how about we get some hookers, you know? And Drew, or at least some college-age girls. And Drew, or you know, Drew said high school, but I said no. We go college and we compromise on junior college, which I thought was younger. I didn't know. But Drew said absolutely not. I look at that as a personal attack on my family. And then he checked me for a wire. No, no. He said he looks at that as a personal attack on his family. As a direct attack. Right. And then I laughed like a madman. But then, but I did soak it in.
24:08🔗AdamJennifer? Okay, listen. You know, you know on some level that this guy is a bad guy. And that even though what your dad did to you makes you sort of very accepting of abuse.
24:47🔗AdamYou're one of them. Now, listen, here's the point. You can live your life in denial and go from crappy guy to crappy guy to abusive guy back to a crappy guy. Or you can start going to Hell and On, get a little therapy, read a book and start trying to clear your mind up a little bit on behalf of your two children who are going to magically grow up in the same kind of crappy environment you grew up in.
25:09🔗DrewUnless you change, unless you break that cycle. Okay.
25:15🔗DrewI'm not necessarily saying, by the way, break up myself. I'm saying you got some work to do and he needs to do some, too. But you can only work on yourself. And if you get better, you're going to want to leave him. And if he has any desire to stay in this marriage, he'll get better, too.
25:34🔗AdamIt's nice to hear from white trash everyone on this show. You know, we make so much fun of the ethnic groups, but it's good to know that there's some white people that are really screwed up, too. All right. Dain and Eric are both here. They've taken home the gold and they actually brought it into the studio. God bless them.
25:52🔗DrewWe will take ourselves a little bit casual with that gold, too. It's lying around here. Let's put his coke on top of the coaster.
25:58🔗AdamI know. Yeah. And they let out they hand it right over to us. I was about ready to make a break for the door.
26:38🔗AdamThey're our guests tonight. They are, of course, the American Beach Volleyball team who brought home the gold from Sydney and are just basking in it. And why not? Would too. Oh my God. Gold medal. You ready to get back on the phone, Drew?
27:04🔗CallerWell, last week I was at a club with some friends and we took some ecstasy and I don't normally do that. And this guy that I've liked for a little while was in there. And I ended up going home with them. And we were safe. We had protection and everything. But right before he finished, he went to pull out and the condom didn't. And I was curious if, even though I didn't really come in contact with it, if I should still be concerned.
27:33🔗DrewYou mean the condom stayed, had to be fished out?
27:36🔗CallerIt didn't have to be fished out, but it wasn't, it didn't come out with him. I mean, it was hanging there.
27:42🔗DrewHanging. Like an elephant trunk kind of thing.
27:44🔗CallerSort of, yeah. It was pretty gruesome.
27:46🔗AdamYeah, but it wasn't a guy with a big gray beard and waiters didn't come on smoking a pipe and have to get it out. I mean, Gordon's fisherman.
29:37🔗AdamOkay. Well, that'll do it. It had happened to me once. I, by both hands, I was calling some of my friends, telling them I got laid and I didn't have a hand free.
29:48🔗AdamI probably should have waited until I got out of the room or something. I just can't, you know, it's like you got some good news you want to share. Hi, Kelly. You're fine there.
30:03🔗CallerYeah. My question is about a month ago, I performed oral sex on someone. Later to find out he has herpes and I didn't know like how at risk I was.
31:31🔗DrewThat skin's not easy to penetrate with violence.
31:34🔗AdamYeah, but if one was really tenacious...
31:36🔗DrewYeah, or if you bit down and cut some... Calm down.
31:41🔗AdamYou know what always grosses Drew out? I tell him as a man, I like a little nipple play. You know, it's something I enjoy. Drew always gets repulsed. And I mean, come on, you guys, be honest. That's a rotch in a zone on a man, too, right?
33:08🔗GuestShe said her car was parked at a friend's and she said she drove home, which I checked the next morning, which she did not. And I confronted it to her a week later. And still denied. So, you know, there's... I believe that she lied about it.
34:56🔗AdamYeah. Men do this. You guys have done this, I'm sure. All guys do it, especially when you're younger. You talk yourself into stuff that is just not the truth. I mean, the bottom line is, is if a woman wants to be with you, she will be with you, just like you will be with her, if you want to be with her, and everything else can be damned. All this family, whatever, job, whatever, travel, whatever. You'll work it out, right? I mean, you'll make it happen. And if it ain't happening, it ain't happening, no matter what they say. She doesn't sound like she's into this one. All right. Tom doesn't sound like he's got a good ear for that. Jeremy?
36:14🔗AdamDon't take any offenses, but how long does it take to get the sand out of you? If you know what I'm saying after one of those things where you're diving. I mean, you must take home half that beach in your shorts.
36:35🔗AdamAll right. All righty. Dane and Eric are both here. They both have themselves a big fat gold medal, which they've brought into the studio, obviously from the Sydney Olympics. We'll come back and we'll talk to Jason, who's going to congratulate the boys after this.
36:54🔗GuestHello? Is this Loveline? Call 1-800-LOVE-191. Adam and Dr. Drew will be right back.
37:07🔗GuestHi, this is Sean Seen, and you're listening to Loveline on NRK. We'll be right back.
37:25🔗AdamIt is LoveLine and Adam Carolla. That is Dr. Drew, John Cryer. He'll be in here tomorrow night. My neighbor, by the way, who lives right across the street from me. So I called him tonight and told him I was going to pick him up. He's got that new, what is it, The Trouble with Normal? Is that the new ABC sitcom? Replace My Beloved Sabrina the Teenage Witch or whatever on TGI Friday. But he'll be in there tomorrow night. Dain Blanton and Eric Fonoimoana, Fonoimoana.
37:59🔗AdamThey're both here tonight. They, if you watched the Olympics or even if you didn't watch the Olympics, you still probably knew that these guys took home the gold in the beach volleyball. The most glamorous of all the Olympic sports, I would say. Certainly the best for the chicks. And once you guys see the Olympics wrapped up a couple of weeks ago and you guys, I saw, I guess I saw the news where you guys, they always do that thing where they send the camera down to the airport and then they have the guys coming off the plane. It's a weird kind of thing. And then they come off the plane and their family's there. And they go, here they are, they're coming off the plane. And there they go. Well, they're back. And I was glad to see you guys got back. You had the gold medals. And you know, it'd be funny if you'd just give them your gold medal, a couple of fat tourists who are sitting behind you and let them walk off in front of you. Fred Rogan a little. All right. So the guys are here. Oh, and I want to talk about these guys. Both have sort of foundations, I guess you would call them, or programs. Let's let's talk about that. I guess we'll start with Dain. What is, talk about your program.
39:08🔗GuestWhat my program is, it's called Dain's Day at the Beach. And I created it back in 1997 after I'd won my first event. And what it is, it's a program that goes all throughout the United States and it goes, it introduces volleyball to kids usually at a Boys and Girls Club or YMCA that haven't been introduced to the sport of beach volleyball. And I usually do it at stops that the tour goes to, the United States AVP tour. I get the kids out there, we go over the skills of volleyball, I speak to them about goals, goal setting and a little bit about my background and how I've gotten to where I am today. And I also invite them out to the event, try to get them tickets, because there's really, you can talk about beach volleyball, you can watch it on TV all you want, but once you're at the event, it's a lot different, it makes a lot more of an impact on kids when they're right there.
40:04🔗AdamAnd what about, do most of these facilities now have a little beach set up? And then some sand where you can play beach volleyball?
40:14🔗GuestWell when I run the program, our tour is there usually on that weekend. Other than that, if you're in a city that doesn't have a beach, it's definitely more difficult. But if there is no beach, you know, you teach them indoor stuff.
40:26🔗AdamBut like for instance, a lot of fraternity houses will have like some sand set up in front, or they'll be like at colleges, they have sand set up where you can play beach volleyball. Does some of these YMCAs and places like that have that now?
40:40🔗GuestYou know what, I haven't come across that. That would be nice if it was, but those are usually pretty expensive to build and even more expensive to just maintain.
40:50🔗AdamWell, you know why? Because cat's cramping them. You ever stepping in cat crap?
41:03🔗AdamMy drunken friends may look at that. Certainly, yes. Thank you, Drew. I see a big ashtray. Look at that. Good for everything. Cigarettes, throw up, urine. Perfect. Perfect. All right, and Eric, what about, oh, and by the way, you can do a dainblanton.com, which is one big long word, right?
41:23🔗AdamD-A-I-N, and Blanton is pretty much how it's spelled, right? boanton.com, if you want some more information about that. And Eric, let's talk about your foundation.
41:36🔗GuestIt's called Dig for Kids. It's D-I-G for Kids. And what it is is...
41:42🔗AdamWell, these are kids who are hit by avalanches?
41:44🔗GuestNo, it's actually a term in volleyball that when you do a defensive play, it's called a dig.
41:51🔗GuestYeah, just in case you go down there and start digging down at the beach. Different terminology. But we start in the city of Carson, and what we do is an hour and a half of academics, and an hour and a half of volleyball. And in the classroom goes first, we stress academics, making sure that people get an education and learn how to study. We tutor them at that time. It started September 20th, and it goes on for 12 weeks every Wednesday from 3 to 6. So it's kind of like an after school program.
42:22🔗AdamAnd I'm guessing the volleyball is after the academics.
42:25🔗GuestExactly. Volleyball is secondary because if you don't study, you don't get to play volleyball.
42:30🔗AdamRight. We got to hang that carrot out there because no way this kid's hanging.
42:33🔗GuestIf we did the opposite, I think they'd be all sweating and then running around.
42:36🔗AdamYeah. It's like that's why you don't get paid on Monday morning. You don't show up Tuesday. All right. And how do they get hold of you? digforkids.com?
42:45🔗GuestYeah. It's a website that has more information and more in detail what we do. We also do clinics. But we're definitely looking for donations.
42:54🔗DrewHey, in Samoan, does Moana mean something? Everybody's Alamoana, Fonoimoana?
42:59🔗GuestYeah. Fonoimoana actually means meeting by the sea.
44:10🔗AdamDo you understand the ball does not have a rope on it and go around a pole? It's tetherball. It's totally different, which I believe should be an Olympic sport, of course, with no ropeies. You know, we grab the rope. Always a source of controversy at Colfax Elementary when someone dibs no ropeies, but it was not declared loud enough so that the opponent could hear it. Always some trouble. No ropeies. All right, Eric, the guys appreciate you and it's dedicated fans like yourself that make this sport possible. And as a matter of fact, the guys are telling me off the air they won the gold for you.
44:48🔗DrewThanks for meeting me at the airport, too.
44:49🔗CallerOkay, and what happened to your lapel lapse?
45:06🔗AdamC-Rings, just C-Rings and Lava Lamps. It was a store that I was looking to franchise in the malls. Just C-Rings and Lava Lamps. And as it turned out, we couldn't say the entire word. After we'd mentioned 157 times, by the way. It's not a science, this radio, apparently. All right, we're... Well, let's just say real high. Let's talk to Mike real quick. Mike? Real high, yes. Mike, you're 19.
46:00🔗AdamAll right. Didn't take much encouragement. We'll take a little break, and then we'll get back and get to the bottom of your problem, okay? All right. Dain and Eric are both here, gold medal winners from Sydney and Beach Volleyball. We'll take a little break. We'll be right back.
46:36🔗AdamYep, it is Loveline. I'm Adam Carolla, that is Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Tomorrow night, John Cryer will be in here. He's going to kick me in the nuts when he hears me say this, but you probably still remember him as Duckie Boy in Pretty in Pink, although that was 33 years ago. But he's my neighbor, so I told him I'm going to pick him up, and he's going to come in here and talk about The Trouble with Normal. It's the new ABC show tomorrow night. Dain Blanton is here tonight, and so is Eric Fonoimoana. Fonoimoana.
47:20🔗AdamWhat is it? Are they just scrolling with us over there?
47:23🔗GuestIt's just a lot of vowels makes you pronounce words.
47:27🔗AdamI know, but why can't they be shorter? You know, like the Chinese, you know, I got his last name like Chin or Hoi or something. It's great, you know? Li. Li. How can you screw up Li? You put another E on it, you're still good. You can't misspell it, you can't screw it up.
47:46🔗AdamYeah. There's so many of them too. I'm going to go over there, start pronouncing some names. You could pronounce, you know, millions and millions of names over there, right? There's no tough Chinese names, is there?
48:00🔗AdamYou think so? I don't know. I think it works. Plus, now, I feel sorry for all these guys, these Simone guys starting to make it into the NFL now. And it's, oh boy, it's John Salamone, I'm a, hold on, I'm a Hanna. That's on a tackle.
48:15🔗GuestI think I'll make you say it correctly.
48:17🔗AdamYou know, what is, there's a guy, oh man, there's, I think-
48:20🔗DrewIt's always when there's two U's that they get all screwed up. Two U's and two A's in the same name, side by side.
48:26🔗AdamThere's a, there's a running back for, oh, Steelers, yeah.
48:32🔗DrewArizona always had, University of Arizona always had a bunch of- Oh, they did? Yeah. Really? Yeah.
48:40🔗AdamThe Steelers, yeah, they got number 45 as a fullback or something on that team. He's got a hell of a boy. He's got a mouthful. And a lot of those announcers are drunk by the third quarter, so it's, forget it. They just, I think they just start calling them Don Ho at a certain point.
49:03🔗DrewIf he wasn't, he... He should have been.
49:06🔗AdamI said to Don, hey Don, you own half that island, right? I said, yeah. And no, he went, yeah. I said, you're only pot on that land? He was like, oh, just started laughing.
50:18🔗AdamReferred. Yeah. It's like a dentist or something. Yeah.
50:23🔗CallerYeah. And so we just started talking on the phone, right? And I set up to meet her on Tuesday. And so I went and I went to go meet her, right?
50:31🔗And like she was like all over me, like this, like, like filling me up and I don't know.
50:37🔗AdamHey, Mike, you know, you know, my cursing policy. I may have to put you on hold. I think Anderson did. Anderson's enforcing my policy for me. All right. Listen, if she's feeling you up on the first date and she seems a little crazy and you met her over the phone, maybe, maybe this isn't the one for you. And Mike, Mike sounds like he deserves royalty. He really, he shouldn't settle for anything less than a princess. Hymen intact. He really, he really sounds like one of the royal family. Alicia?
51:14🔗AdamUsing his bong as a scepter, by the way. Mike, you're 23. What's up? I mean, sorry, Alicia, you're 23.
51:21🔗CallerYeah. Hi. Thank you so much for taking my call. Sure. My boyfriend is an addict and everyone is telling him that if he sticks with the NA program, then it will work for him, but he doesn't believe in God and I don't think he ever could believe in the type of God that he would need to in order to...
51:42🔗DrewListen, the whole, from an intellectual standpoint, the purpose of the God concept is to get somebody comfortable with feeling powerless and just having faith that in spite of feeling completely powerless over this very intense disease, things are going to turn out okay. Just have faith that things will be okay, that you don't have to be in control and that to experience the powerlessness associated with this disease is to begin the process of dealing with the reality of the disease. But unless you have some faith in something that things are going to be okay, it's too horrifying to experience that.
52:14🔗AdamWhat about the atheists and the agnostics? That's fine. Well, how do they get a feeling of powerlessness?
52:23🔗DrewThey just have faith that there is some good in the universe or that things are going to be okay for them. They have their own concept of what this is.
52:30🔗AdamI heard a new program was sending them down to the Department of Building and Safety to try to pull a permit on a garage.
53:00🔗DrewNot that, unless, look, he has to be on his knees willing to do whatever he has to do. And obviously he's not ready right now. He also should be in a sober living when he gets out of there for a while. Because again, opiate addiction, extremely high recidivism.
53:30🔗AdamOh, most Jewish parents would be very upset you're dating a junkie.
53:33🔗DrewAnd by the way, in order for him to actually get better, you have to change too. Or you subconsciously will keep him the same person that has been the drug addict. And he needs to make substantive emotional change. And you've got to go to Al-Anon. And you have to be working a program as diligently as he is. Or the relationship, I'm telling you, will not survive. Or he will die of his disease, one or the other.
53:54🔗AdamWhy are you kidding me? Your parents are all right with the junkie? I can't get over that. There's not a Jewish mother alive who would go for that.
54:00🔗CallerI mean, he's across the country right now living with his mother. So he's not here. But they actually let him stay with them when he tried to detox.
54:10🔗DrewNo. No way. You can't detox him as an outpatient.
54:13🔗CallerYeah. Right. Well, he's in a hospital right now.
54:16🔗DrewGood. But you got to start going to Al-Anon immediately. He is not going to stay well unless you make some change, too.
54:54🔗CallerAnd I mean, that's kind of what we initially bonded on because we both struggled with it and...
54:58🔗DrewYeah, that's what codependence are. They see the pain that they experience in another person, they can't tolerate it. They have to expunge that pain, rescue them from that pain, so less they should have to experience it as well themselves.
55:11🔗AdamYeah, I have that, but just to a certain point, I see the pain that I have in other people and then decide to nap. Which is sort of get right up to the brink of wanting to expunge it from them, but then I get sleepy.
55:31🔗AdamLike, over it. A lot of people like to, you know, they say, let me sleep on it. Let me get a little time with it. I like to masturbate on a big business decision, a contract that needs to be signed. Someone puts a contract, you're probably gonna say, let me whack off on it.
55:47🔗AdamGive me a couple minutes. Let me whack off on it. And I'll get back to you on it. Okay? Is it laminated? And there's always some confusion when I use the word on it. I choose my words better now.
56:27🔗DrewThere are orgasmic type migraines, but you need to have this looked at, seriously. Before you do anything again, have a doctor examine you, okay?
57:06🔗DrewThat's what they're used to playing. You know what I mean? It's like any of the sports, the uniform.
57:10🔗AdamYeah. I understand. But I just wonder if there's some sort of rule because you never see, well, once in a while I see a guy with a tank top or something like that.
57:50🔗AdamNo, really? No, wait a minute. Anything under the shorts?
57:55🔗GuestNo. I wear board shorts, and that's just the way it is.
57:58🔗AdamAren't you scared of some... I'd be scared of someone from one of my buddies from the odds who'd run out and drop my pants. You ever lose your pants? No, not really. Really? I'd wear suspenders or something. I'd put some duck tape around them or something, like a boxer's glove or something.
58:14🔗DrewYou'd scare your friends if they'd come at you.
58:16🔗AdamWell, it'd be hard to play with the pistol stuff down the trunks. Dain, you wear underpants, jock straps, something like that?
58:23🔗GuestSomething like that. I wear just Speedos.
58:27🔗AdamBeach. Well, yeah, I'm trying to figure out. It seems like there's a lot of people watching. You're doing a lot of diving. You know what I mean? Like, half the time, you go run and jump in the ocean, you come run around, you come run out, your pants are on your ankles, you don't even know it. Right?
58:41🔗GuestYeah, the pants never fall down. You have the drawstring, and nowadays, the shorts are so long.
58:46🔗AdamAny guys wear shoes of any kind? I mean, not shoes, but some kind of, you know, gear, some kind of something on the foot, one of those wet socks or something like that?
58:56🔗GuestOnly when it gets real hot. Sometimes people put on little sand socks, or if they're trying to tape up their ankle to project the tape, but usually, well, you know, nine out of ten times, you don't see anything on the feet, anything on the, you know, no shirts. The less, the better.
59:14🔗AdamYeah, what happens if you get like a big zit on your back? You know?
59:21🔗AdamIt does? I'm a little saying on it. Jesus, I tell you, you ever get that? You look at your back, you're, holy Christ, what happened? What happened to me tonight? I don't get zits on my back very much at all. I turn around, I was looking in the mirror today, there's something huge, like a cow's eye was on my back. It was huge. I was like, oh my God, what happened here?
59:58🔗AdamYeah, yeah, yeah. I wear out a shirt or two every couple of weeks sitting in this chair. Yeah, put it in this mic. How dare you, Drew? How dare you attack my hygiene? Please. Yeah, but I was thinking with this zit on my back, no way. I'd withdraw from the tournament.
1:00:16🔗DrewWear a shirt. Yeah, put an eye on your back. You'd be arrested for witchcraft.
1:00:21🔗AdamI realize. It was a cow's eye. It was a pig's head. Dan?
1:01:06🔗AdamSee, this stuff only happens in sitcoms. It's like in the Brady Bunch where Greg's trying out for the team, and it's like, hey, it's Don Drysdale. Howdy, Greg. Listen, son, you got to stay in school. I was always freaked me out how Mr. Brady was friends with like Roman Gabriel and Don Drysdale and Davy Jones. Let me just bring them on in. Sure. And they'd always talk to him. Thanks, Mike. Listen, here's the thing, brother, and it's like I want to kick my dad in the nuts every time I saw one of those episodes. But you know what I'm talking about? Yeah. You guys don't do this. This is a sitcom scenario.
1:01:42🔗AdamYeah, Joe Namath shows up. It's always funny, too. It's like this guy's a small time architect in California. Joe Namath flies out from New York. Hi, Mike. Any time I can help the family, Mike. It's like, yeah, I guess he hangs with Joe. Broadway Joe, sure. Why not? I know my dad. I saw my dad chilling with Bart Starr last week. And they always kiss the guy's ass a little bit.
1:02:10🔗Just so no one calls and complains, it was because one of the kids lied and said he had cancer, and sent Joe a card, and then Joe came out. Not because of the dad.
1:02:18🔗AdamOkay, but dad, he's the world's greatest engineer, isn't he? And would you like to shoot holes in my comedy, or should I kind of keep going? But explain Don Drysdale, you jackass. How dare you?
1:02:35🔗AdamAnd I know Davy Jones was, Marcia got him. The point is, Joe doesn't make the rounds that way. He's great at guys. He is. And neither does Eric and Dain. Your team, your JV volleyball team up north is in a little bit of a slump. They could give a rat's ass.
1:02:51🔗GuestNo, actually, we sometimes get like this. No, honestly, we get out there to a lot of different schools and different things. But if we're in the area, but right now San Francisco's not on the on the on the schedule.
1:03:04🔗GuestHey, Dan, start practicing a little harder, Dan. Maybe get your team to go another extra hour. Put in the groundwork and I'm sure you guys will do better.
1:03:11🔗AdamDan, you want to know how to get it on the schedule? Pass the hat, brother. Let's get some money going.
1:03:25🔗GuestI don't know if anyone is going to call.
1:03:27🔗AdamAnd then, hey, Dan, what happens if these guys come out, they give you guys a big pep talk, right? You start cleaning up around the league and one of the other teams goes into a slump. Do they got to come out and help that team now? You understand the implications here, Dan. It keeps going and going.
1:03:53🔗AdamOkay. I mean, Drew, when you were in high school and you're, let's see, you had an eight man football team, so your three and a half man volleyball team went into a slump.
1:05:18🔗AdamYeah. He just had hip replacement surgery. I read in the Inquirer. He's way up there. He has adult children, I believe, now, doesn't he? Hey, Kim? Yeah. Now, who cares?
1:05:30🔗DrewWell, no, wait, she doesn't understand this stuff. She's having an experience. It seems funny to her.
1:07:34🔗CallerUm, maybe like seven, and then she was with this other woman, and then another woman, and now she's single.
1:07:43🔗AdamOkay, no, wait a minute. Hold on a second. Why, so you're saying if two moms is better than one mom, then is three moms better than two moms?
1:08:03🔗DrewBut I would think if this kind of situation, a lot of chaos and people coming in and out of her life would be very impactful on her. Negatively.
1:08:10🔗AdamI don't believe, first off, which one's playing poppa? Do they have, do they flip a coin?
1:08:15🔗DrewStrangely, it's very difficult for that to be played by a woman, it looks like. I mean, just-
1:08:21🔗DrewYeah, if you look at sort of data, the whole issue of containing aggression seems to need, that's what I was going to question on, how did she, but she's a female, I mean, a young male might be different.
1:08:30🔗AdamSo I'm saying, what do you need two of them for? You already got one crazy mom.
1:08:34🔗DrewBut she surely was attached to that woman.
1:08:55🔗AdamYou're not into the lesbian stuff? Was it weird growing up with a lesbian mom?
1:09:00🔗CallerUm, sometimes, because, you know, kids can be really mean and jokes are always hurtful, so.
1:09:06🔗AdamWell, believe me, I know, I got a Brillo hat. That's worse than a lesbian mom. Every day is open house when you have a Brillo hat, do you understand that? It's open season.
1:09:15🔗DrewCan you share with your mom about things like this, about your sexuality, or is it awkward for you?
1:09:20🔗CallerNo, we have a pretty good relationship.
1:09:59🔗AdamI think I may have touched on that. Yeah, about 10 minutes ago, I'm not sure. All right. Well, Kim, you're obviously doing well in school. You go to the all-girls school.
1:10:47🔗AdamI love you, baby. That's got to be a great gig, painting that Bay Bridge. Uh, hey, uh, guess what we're doing today, everybody? Yeah? That's right.
1:11:22🔗AdamYeah, yeah, they must call them, uh, must call them something. Oh, what a gig. Uh, just go from one end to the other, and when you get to the end, it's time to come back. I mean, really, you might as well just be a mule, uh, work in a grindstone, just, uh, crushing something. But, you know, it's all full of benefits. And by the way, here's the other thing, it takes 20, 20 years to paint a bridge, they sub that job out to a couple of non-city employees, I bet you half the amount of men paint it in two years. Oh. Maybe, maybe one. Is that what you're saying, Drew?
1:11:56🔗DrewBut maybe it doesn't, you know, they move a foot a month.
1:11:59🔗AdamAll right, we'll take ourselves a little break. Dain and Eric are both here. Sport in the Gold. And we'll be back after this. It's Loveline. Poe Number. Ah, forget about that. John Crow will be in here tomorrow night. It's Dr. Drew Adam Corolla, Dain Blanton, and Eric Fonoimoana is in here tonight. These guys have their gold medals, but that pales in comparison to the Billboard Syndicated Show of the Year. Two years running now, Drew. Is that right? Yeah. We have ourselves... You don't believe us? We got... Ann has 50 cents worth of Lucite on her desk. That will back up that statement. I don't know who decided... You know I've complained about this for some years now. Somebody decided in 1987 that all awards from this day forth will be made out of Lucite.
1:13:24🔗AdamA wreath in one hand. Maybe an Arbitron rating book in one hand and like a microphone in the other. A big sort of Roman-esque looking guy. I don't know. That's something that looks like a paperweight. It's something you could kill somebody with. Something you could club somebody with.
1:13:43🔗AdamYeah, medals. Medals. Trophies. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Something I could mount on the hood of the car like an ornament, drive around town with. But anyway, syndicated show of the year. Is that right? Yep. Yeah, fantastic. Alright, so I'm not feeling so high and mighty with those... I mean, let me tell you something. Gold Olympic medals, they come and go. But billboard syndicated show of the year, that's forever. You can never take that away. You never take that away. These, these can be taken away. Watch. Watch. Watch. Drew, start a fire. I'm gonna take these things away. Drew just took it away. See, gone. Do you have Drew's billboard syndicated show of the year award? No, you don't.
1:14:29🔗AdamNo, you can't take it. It's in his heart, man. See, that's the thing. You can't touch it. Where it is, you can't touch. You see?
1:14:36🔗GuestI just figured out I've been shooting for the wrong people.
1:14:40🔗AdamYeah, you heard it. All those days of practice out in the hot sun and the sand burning the feet and the chafing and the crotch, all for nothing. You should have been behind a microphone. Chris?
1:14:55🔗CallerI was playing in a football game from my high school in Saturday night. And like I was wearing a cup and on the on like the previous play the cup kind of came loose. Not like came loose but it got out of position.
1:15:07🔗CallerIt was like kind of on my ball sack and on the second play I got a I got hit there. And it really hurt. No kidding. But on that play like kind of I didn't go out or anything because even though I hurt I just kind of stayed in.
1:15:41🔗DrewWell they can fracture. You can actually fracture the testes. They can be contused. They can break. The blood supply can be cut off.
1:15:49🔗AdamHow's it looking? How's it looking now?
1:15:52🔗CallerIt looks all right but it hurts to do anything. Like I have to wear like tidy white at school because like if it's like hanging it hurts.
1:15:59🔗DrewYeah that may be all you have to do. A urologist should take a look at it. Urologist, okay?
1:16:22🔗AdamThat's a real lucite, baby. Yeah. You see right through it.
1:16:26🔗DrewThere's an old miner up in San Joaquin Valley to pull the lucite right out of the ground for that.
1:16:31🔗AdamThat's right. That's right. We, as I got to say, you know one thing I was kind of interested in, I went to the Raiders training camp, as you know, some months back through a little man show bit. And you know those professional football players, most of them don't wear any pads anymore in their pants?
1:16:56🔗AdamA lot of them don't wear thigh pads, a lot of them. No knee pads on most of them. Like your average NFL wide out, wide receiver, no thigh pads, no knee pads, no cup, no hip pads, and no butt pad.
1:17:10🔗DrewThat's why they're getting nailed too, the legs.
1:17:13🔗AdamThey don't wear most of these guys. And take a look at your average game. You'll see some guys with some pads in their pants, but you'll see a lot of guys with nothing. So essentially, they're playing football. You know, it's sort of equivalent to a pair of shorts. I mean, they're like tight, you know, knickers, basically. I mean, zero. Start looking.
1:17:35🔗DrewIs this just so they can get an edge on the speed and the acrobatics and stuff? That must be.
1:17:39🔗AdamWell, okay, as far as the wide outs go, you know, a knee pad in the NFL is about a quarter inch of foam rubber. And that's not going to, a torn ACL is not going to be prevented by that. That's going to prevent a scrape. So they wear, you know, socks or whatever. They don't care about scrapes. So the knee pad's gone. The thigh pad on the wide outs, yeah, they don't want to slow it down. The cup, that I can't figure out. And the butt pad, they never really did wear in the NFL. And they used to wear hip pads, but they don't wear those anymore either. So essentially, you're essentially wearing nothing from the waist down. And then some of these guys have these miniature shoulder pads on these like linemen and stuff so they don't get hooked, especially like defensive linemen, they don't want to get hooked up on the offensive linemen, so they were just sort of streamlined ones. And it's basically like a helmet and a small pair of shoulder pads.
1:18:34🔗AdamIt's crazy. But on the other hand, you've seen the thighs on a 300 pound man? That's a lot of thigh. You've seen like Warren Sapp's ass? Have you seen his ass and thigh?
1:19:25🔗AdamThis guy was scary. That's all I'm telling you. And this guy, this guy's calves were so big. They're the biggest calves I've ever seen in my life. Chung Hwa wore the thigh pad on his shin in his sock, and it fit. You know what I'm talking about? You know what an NFL thigh pad looks like? He had his stuff down the front of his sock, and it worked. I mean, it was there. He had calf hanging out on each side of it, on the back part of it. Chung Hwa. And he didn't speak any English, just Chung Hwa. There's about that much English, Chung Hwa. And he was this crazy guy. He used to like, he used to like break karate chop bricks and stuff. He was a crazy guy. And we'd be doing these drills, you know. Chung Hwa? How dare you? Chung Hwa was, he was like 14. No, in high school, he was 17 years old. And Chung Hwa was on the team because he was 300 pounds. His calves were, you know, big as a field. And I remember once we were lining up in front of him, and the coach was just kind of talking. He's like, we're going to do some technique drills here. Half speed, everybody, half speed. All right, get down in your stance. And I was looking at Chung Hwa and I was going, he didn't, that whole half speed part, that would mean nothing to Chung. He didn't, that didn't process that all. I stopped everyone. So hold on a second, coach. Chung Hwa, the half speed, do you understand that? Okay, listen, coach, I just, I'm not a pussy, but let's just make sure Chung Hwa understands the whole half speed things. With the calf, he had the thigh pads in his calves, Drew.
1:20:59🔗DrewYeah, you're not a pussy. Come on, don't be such a pussy.
1:21:09🔗GuestMy girlfriend, she's 16. Well, about six months ago, I found out she was pregnant. And about, I don't know, about two weeks ago, we went to the doctor and he said everything's fine. We never believed a word he was saying, so we went to a different one.
1:21:24🔗DrewWhy didn't you believe anything he was saying?
1:21:27🔗GuestBecause everything he kept on saying sounded like bullcrap, like all this, like, oh, yeah, she's going to have the baby anytime now. And so we went to a different doctor and the baby's dead inside of her and they won't touch her because she's a minor. I'm just wondering, will this hurt her or do anything to her?
1:22:21🔗AdamI got to talk about... Josh is either stupid or angry or both or something is up. Why he went to the first doctor and the guy said everything is fine and they didn't believe him? What was up with that?
1:23:10🔗GuestWell the other doctor wouldn't let me go in because I don't know why he said something to her parents about some kind of legal stuff.
1:23:16🔗AdamThey probably sized you up. They saw the torn parka with the duct tape on it and the painter's hat on backwards and the bad teenage mustache and said, why don't you wait out in the hole?
1:23:26🔗DrewAnd a few piercings. And if the parents were there, why didn't they get consent to do something?
1:23:45🔗GuestI just wanted to know if this can hurt her.
1:23:47🔗DrewNo, it's fine. Listen, Josh, you don't trust anybody. These people are trying to take care of her, okay? They have a fiduciary and professional responsibility to do what is best for her, period.
1:23:58🔗GuestYeah, but it was good going to the new doctor because he told her what was wrong. The other one wouldn't tell her. He kept telling her.
1:24:04🔗AdamOkay, okay. You want to revisit that again? Hey, Josh, why do you sound angry? Are you angry? You're an angry person?
1:24:38🔗AdamListen, I know this sounds like the worst thing in the world, but this kid just dodged a bullet. They really did. And Josh, imagine Josh's papa, that pissed-off teenage Josh taking care of you. Oh, I can't... See, here's the whole thing. When you're a kid, here's the deal. And I know we've gotten into this before, and it makes everyone hate me, but as a kid, from zero to whatever, now we look at Josh as a teenage screwball, right? They look at Josh as the god, the messiah, the light, the provider, everything. He's everything.
1:25:25🔗DrewYeah. That becomes the measure of all that is good.
1:25:28🔗AdamRight. Okay, Josh, listen, I don't want to come in on you too hard. It's just there's something strange about your voice, but I'm sorry for what's happened to your girlfriend. Ultimately, I think it's a good thing. You guys can wait a little while, another two or three months, and start a family. We'll take a break.
1:25:49🔗GuestLoveline will be right back. So get your problems ready. Ready.
1:26:12🔗AdamI'm Adam Corolla. This is Dr. Drew. Dain and Eric are both here. Olympic volleyball gold medalists, everybody. And just the two of them, they don't have to share it with that whole team. Like the indoor guys. Indoor guys? It's not a big deal. You and 28 guys got a gold pick. That's not a... Yeah, you rode the pine the whole time.
1:26:34🔗AdamYou don't have that. Not these guys. No excuses. That's it. Just the two of them out there. How long does the average game last? I know it matters. It depends on how close it is. But what are you usually out there for?
1:26:47🔗GuestAbout 45 minutes. I mean, some will go longer than that. We've played matches an hour and 20 minutes. I mean, it all depends. But I've seen games go 20 minutes or 15, 20 minutes when you just kill a team. And then if you get a real good matchup, you can go as long as an hour or more.
1:27:04🔗AdamThe whole... Even the serve thing is freaky to me. You see those guys that get way back there, get that run, get that jump. And no more, you guys don't go underhandies anymore.
1:27:13🔗GuestNo, the skyball is off limits nowadays.
1:27:16🔗AdamOh, where they used to just hit that colossal...
1:27:48🔗GuestRight, or if it's a little windy. There's so many elements out on the court when you're playing. That's why we switch in increments of five points, but most people are jump-serving and trying to score right off the serve. Similar to like tennis now, you know, there's those big bombers and a lot of points can be scored right off the serve.
1:28:18🔗AdamI see. But when you're doing what? On the rings? Down at Muscle Beach. I like those guys. You know guys, volleyball is fine as a sport you're playing. I don't like the guys who work out in full view of everyone. You ever see those guys down at the park doing Tai Chi? They spread their blanket out in the middle of everyone. They take their shirts off and they start going through this Kung Fu crap in front of everyone. It's like, go to the red onion who want to get laid. Get off the beach. The guys actually treat the park and the beach like it's their gym. They're doing pushups and shadow boxing and running and plays. You throw the frisbee, that's fine. But I don't want to be playing softball while you're in some kind of lotus position burning some incense out in center field. What is that? That's got to be an attention thing. What about the guys who sun themselves at the park?
1:29:09🔗AdamDo you know what I'm talking about? These guys get out there in a speedo and they spread their towel out in the middle of the park and they start sunning themselves.
1:29:15🔗GuestDain does that actually a couple of times.
1:29:39🔗CallerWell, Dain and Eric, for both of you, I read in a magazine, I think it was Newsweek, I heard that you guys are so big in Europe right now that when you guys are playing on feature court, women are actually tearing off their bikini bottoms and throwing them on the court for you to pick up. Is this true?
1:29:55🔗GuestWhere did you read that, in the Inquirer?
1:30:16🔗AdamHey, Garrett, what do you want to pimp?
1:30:18🔗GuestWell, you know, maybe... You want me to hook you up or what?
1:30:21🔗CallerThese guys are living large right now.
1:30:23🔗AdamI know, but what does that have to do with you?
1:30:26🔗CallerNo, I read the article. I was really excited for him. I'm a big fan of volleyball, so I just wanted to ask him that question, but thank you very much.
1:30:48🔗AdamWell, he did process of elimination. Well, if they're at a topless beach and they're throwing their bathing suits, this has got to be their shorts. Interesting. And if it's an all nude beach, they throw tampons, right?
1:31:05🔗AdamThey gotta throw something, is what I'm saying. Drew, what are you getting paid by the call tonight? Are you doing peace work? Relax over there. Phil, you're 21. What's up?
1:31:18🔗CallerI got a question about your charity digs for kids. Are you going to return back to your coaching days at Maricosta and promote digs through kids through coaching indoor volleyball there at Maricosta with Cooker?
1:31:32🔗GuestI still help out at Costa. I always help out with them, but it's just an extension of my coaching.
1:31:38🔗CallerYeah, because I was a formal pupil there and I was just wondering if you're going to return to the glory days.
1:31:48🔗AdamDid you remember? You must have been outstanding, Phil, because Eric's a lit up.
1:31:53🔗CallerOh, no. He just made me run a couple of line drills and do a couple of balls for him. But is that going to be an extension of your Dix for Kids program?
1:32:01🔗GuestYeah, it's just Coast helped me out as far as learning how to coach and get a philosophy down. But, you know, again, I've always given back to something that's always given back so much to me.
1:32:13🔗CallerYeah. It started your grassroots. Eric.
1:32:15🔗AdamOh, shut up, Phil. Do you remember, Phil?
1:32:51🔗AdamFine, though. It's a good life. Yeah. You go up to... I never let my kids go to Santa Barbara to go to school. Eric would never come back. Never come back.
1:33:16🔗CallerAll right. Well, wait a minute now. Dain wanted to talk to 4Jeff real fast. Hey, Jeff? Yeah? Okay. We're out of show. I know you've been on hold for 64 minutes. I apologize. But it gives you character. Okay? Yeah.
1:33:48🔗CallerAll right. dainblanton.com is where you can find Dain's stuff and digforkids.com is where you can find Eric's stuff. Thanks a lot, guys. Congratulations. Thank you. Thanks for having us. Thanks for having us. If you win another gold, you come back on the show. Otherwise, that's it.
1:34:09🔗CallerSo until next time, Sam Crawford, Dr. Drew is saying, Mahala. Oh, boy.
