1:01🔗VoiceoverListener discretion is advised. Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew Loveline, Coast to Coast.
1:13🔗VoiceoverHey, everybody, it's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla, it's Dr. Drew. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191, Dr. Drew. Board-certified internist. God bless you. And addiction medicine specialist. Tonight, our guest is Bill Dwyer. Bill is the guy from BattleBots.
1:37🔗AdamOne of my favorite shows. Yeah, he's- they got rid of Sean Salisbury, who used to do ex-NFLer, who used to be up there with Bill. And they got Tim Green, who's also an ex-NFLer. This guy was- I think it was a lineman for Atlanta. And he wrote a sort of tell-all book about ten years ago.
2:00🔗Yeah, yeah. You know, guys taking whatever, steroids and painkillers and that's- He's a bright guy. He's a lawyer.
2:05🔗AdamHe's the kind of guy you just hate because he's really like- If Howie Long had a dark-haired brother, that's who this guy would be. He's a guy you hate because as a guy, you're always looking for an angle that makes you better than another guy who could say kick your ass.
2:30🔗AdamIf there's a guy who could kick your ass, you'd like to say you're smarter than he is. This guy's what? Six-five, chiseled, great-looking and an attorney.
2:39🔗CallerNice. He's a nice guy. He's like gentle. You know what though? He's not funny.
2:55🔗AdamWhen we did the home team, we did the Terry Bradshaw show. I mean, I grew up watching Terry Bradshaw win four Super Bowls. At the end of the thing, he sort of slapped his huge mitt on my back and said, You're funny, Adam. And I thought, that's nice, but it's a little consolation from taking home those four Super Bowl rings.
3:17🔗CallerAnd that's a big mitt, isn't it? I mean, he's got a hand. Yeah, he used to put the finger on the end of the, on the points of the ball when he threw it. Yeah.
3:24🔗AdamYeah. He, Bradshaw, I mean, he was, he was, he was like, it was like out of a movie where you, the giant is amused and he whacks you on the back and you're flying off your stool.
3:39🔗CallerAnd then he gets angry. They always flip.
3:42🔗AdamOr worse, amorous, where the heart bubbles start coming out of his head and he starts chasing you around. But he, he is a huge, huge guy. But anyway, I, and Drew, I say this once in a while, when a band comes on here or a comedian comes on here, I love BattleBots, do I not?
4:02🔗DrewYeah, he waxed, you heard him, he waxed for 10 minutes before the mics heated up.
4:05🔗CallerAnd your favorite, your favorite robot is?
4:38🔗AdamAnd Drew, I went and did BattleBots this year. Jimmy and I did like a little exhibition thing and it's hairy. I mean, I mean, this is not so much Hollywood magic, you know, with the smoke and mirrors. These things have, you know, lawnmower engines on them and big tungsten blades flying everywhere. I mean, some of these bots are...
4:58🔗CallerYeah, you gotta watch, Drew, you gotta check it out sometime.
5:02🔗Adam$10,000 some people are spending on these?
5:04🔗CallerEasy, yeah, some of them, yeah. And then some of them are, you know, $1,000 or $700 and they're sweet too.
5:09🔗DrewI saw one day they looked like a giant vacuum cleaner sort of marching into things.
5:13🔗CallerOh, that was, maybe that was Tazbot. That's my favorite robot. Yeah, I like Tazbot too. Did they have like an insect head? Did they have like a spinning insect head? Yeah, I love that guy.
5:23🔗AdamThe great thing is the pageantry involved with the games too, because I love it when the guys are out there accepting their awards, and the guy is wearing gym socks. He has one dress sock, one gym sock. He's wearing a pair of OP shorts circa 1982.
5:40🔗AdamAnd a borrowed sport coat. Yeah, got to flopping over.
5:43🔗CallerThey're focused. They're not thinking about what they're wearing. But you notice the uniforms in the pits, didn't you? A lot of teams go with uniforms now.
5:50🔗AdamI've seen more jumpsuits and more female escorts heading out there with the guys.
5:56🔗DrewThese are the guys you fly a plane with, right?
5:58🔗AdamThese guys, I don't know. I fly model airplanes. And it's hard to tell whether these guys would be a cut above or a cut below the guys I see down at the Van Nuys flying field on a Tuesday at noon.
6:09🔗CallerBut those are all made for models, aren't they? Model airplanes. Those are, so a little different, you know.
6:14🔗AdamYeah, there's probably more fabrication going on in the Battle Bot world.
6:18🔗DrewThe Battle Bot got the same guys, more money, more education.
6:21🔗AdamYeah, these guys are, a lot of them are engineers.
6:24🔗CallerYeah, yeah, there's some engineers, but there's also like mechanics and stuff, you know, just guys who know what's going on inside something.
6:31🔗AdamI went down to the Paddock this year, and it's a huge open area, it used to be a hangar of some kind or something.
6:56🔗AdamYou take the Bay Bridge, and you can turn off onto this island, and all of a sudden you're back in the 1940s, and there was a military base there.
7:07🔗AdamAnd the whole place is cleared out, and they put on the BattleBots event there, and it is massive.
7:14🔗CallerCrazy. Oh, it's so great this year. It's so great.
7:17🔗AdamTuesday nights, 10 o'clock, my beloved Comedy Central, and Bill, what about...
7:22🔗CallerAnd then a number of reruns after that, you know, because it's Comedy Central.
7:25🔗AdamAnything... But listen, this is the kind of show, it's not like a sitcom. You can watch this over and over again. It's like watching Evil Knievel crash in slow motion for the fifth time. You're not going to get up and leave. So, and Bill, what about you? Stand-up comedy, acting, anything you want to plug?
7:43🔗CallerI'm a stand-up comic. I got a Comedy Central Presents, a half-hour comedy special coming up on September 10th.
7:49🔗AdamAll right, so we can look forward to that.
7:51🔗CallerThat is Monday, September 10th, also 10 o'clock. And that was sweet. That's another great thing. Man, they did that right. Hudson Theater, New York, just packed, you know, people, lines going down both sides of the block and just a great audience and a great venue. And, you know, it was just a magical night, you know?
8:28🔗CallerI've been with my boyfriend about eight months now and he's been pressuring me to have anal sex. I don't really know a lot about it. I'm just wondering if there's any precautions or anything that can happen that I don't know about.
8:38🔗AdamWell, it's important to have a wooden spoon to bite on.
9:14🔗AdamFor me, cigar tube is no warm up. You've now gone past. It's time to step down to the penis. You've had the chapstick, now you get nice. It's time to relax. Okay.
9:27🔗CallerI don't know. I've heard that gay men, like by the time they're 40, they have to wear diapers because everything is coming out.
9:32🔗AdamWell, that's more of a fashion statement than it is... A biological event.
9:37🔗DrewThere can be rips and tears and problems with the sphincter tone after all this. Yeah, there could be.
10:19🔗DrewWait a minute. I would evaluate that if I were you. Yeah. You're 18 years old, you've been with him eight months, and already the sex is boring for you? Are you actually into this guy?
10:28🔗CallerYeah. Yeah. We plan on getting married soon too.
10:32🔗DrewSex is boring at 18? How do you think it's going to be at 48?
11:09🔗DrewI'm trying to get away from my family. I'm being facetious, Brittany. Why don't you look into some therapy and get some treatment and make some more mature choices about what you want to do with the rest of your life. Yeah. Okay.
11:22🔗AdamAll right. Good times there, baby. Yeah. Don't get married. Don't get pregnant.
11:48🔗CallerWe should devote this whole show to Brittany. She hasn't got any. She hasn't got a clue.
11:53🔗AdamYeah. And maybe the First Hour Tomorrow show as well. Oh my God. All right. Well, this is I. Listen, you'd be better off talking to some of the Battlebots. I've had more stimulating conversation with Ziggo and Vlad the Impaler.
12:48🔗DrewHave a dark jacket. Make sure it's that. There are other things that can swell up and be spongy in there, but none of which are dangerous, but some of which need treatment.
12:56🔗CallerCan I get it like we moved to something like that?
12:58🔗DrewNot the veins, not particularly, but some of the other things can be.
13:30🔗AdamYes. Here's the deal. This book is covered by cowbell and notebook in a box of pens and some duct tape. Instead of trying to gingerly pull everything off and do it discreetly, I'm just going to yank the thing once. All right? But at least we're calling a spade a spade here.
13:51🔗AdamDrew does more visual references on this radio show than any radio show.
13:56🔗CallerThis will be helpful for me though. I'm not going to screw anybody up, am I? No one's going to call me 20 years later and go, I can't get any reactions because of you.
14:04🔗DrewThese veins in here sometimes get all dilated up.
14:06🔗AdamHe's pointing at a picture of a sprodium spack.
14:09🔗DrewIt's got veins coming down the sperminus.
14:29🔗Bill DwyerHey, guys, I got a problem, and it's a small one, and not one too difficult to answer, I don't think, hopefully. Attractive women, they really, really get to me. I have a really hard time talking to them. I can deal with your average run-of-the-mill girls, your fat ones, your, you know, just they're plain and tall, whatever. For some reason, whenever it comes to talking to an attractive girl, I just, I lose all thought.
14:55🔗Bill DwyerI can't say anything to them. I mean, I can make idle conversation, but going more in-depth with them, even going out on a first date, once I finally get past that asking them out type thing, going out with them, you know, I'm out of conversation in like 20 minutes.
15:10🔗DrewHave you ever said that to them, that, geez, I'm intimidated by good-looking women? I just, I just...
15:14🔗Bill DwyerNo, because I've kind of been in denial.
15:16🔗DrewWell, I think you would find some of them would be sort of...
15:20🔗AdamNo, it's an interesting angle, Drew, but as we know, it could only be pulled off by BS guys who weren't actually intimidated, who were just trying to get laid.
15:28🔗DrewNo, no, I think they could be sort of, I think it's cute, I think it's sort of...
15:35🔗DrewThat you feel that they're so attractive that it stultifies you, I think that they'll be sort of...
15:41🔗CallerBut then where does that get you? Then she goes, oh, well, what? You're an idiot then, I don't want to talk to you. Well, you can't talk to me.
15:48🔗DrewI just think being honest and being where you're at is your best bet.
15:51🔗AdamWell, look, we all know being honest is great if they're into you.
16:14🔗AdamWell, how did you get the good-looking ones out on a date if you're so tongue-tied?
16:16🔗CallerWhere are you talking to these good-looking ones?
16:19🔗Bill DwyerJust everywhere I can meet them. Previously, it's usually been going to bars and clubs and stuff, but I've really kind of cooled out on that.
16:25🔗DrewBut how anxious is this guy that he can walk up to somebody at a club and talk to them? Could you do that?
16:33🔗But, see, there's so many people out there that can.
16:35🔗Bill DwyerI see people hooking up at night clubs all the time. I see people walking in, and you'll see the same people walking out several hours.
16:42🔗DrewA certain group in this world have to realize that's not them. That's just not you, Scott.
16:47🔗AdamThere's like 3% of the guys that are banging 95% of the women.
16:53🔗AdamYeah, do you know how they talk about how 2% of the United States citizens have 95% of the wealth, that kind of thing? It's the same thing with getting laid. We all knew that one guy in high school that nailed everybody, and then there was us. And my theory is we need to kill those guys because I look at, Puntang is like provisions on a desert island, and this guy's hogging all the Snickers.
17:23🔗CallerAnd he's got the crowbar to open the bucks.
17:25🔗AdamRight. And we're all trapped on this desert island, and he's eating everything, and drinking all the, he's using up all the reserves. That's what I'm saying. I think we should get rid of these guys at the junior high, high school level.
17:39🔗CallerWell this guy's going to find his women somewhere else, too, at work or wherever, you know? He's not going to find them at clubs, he's not a club guy.
17:52🔗AdamIs there a person on the planet who will admit being into the club scene? Every single person you talk to, and I don't mean every single person, I mean every single unattached person you talk to, they go, well, I'm into dating, but I'm not into the club scene. I like one person just to be, because clubs are packed every weekend, so I'm assuming somebody's got to be into the club scene. I just want to hear someone who's bold enough to admit they are very much heavily into the club scene.
18:40🔗DrewYes. Diabetes plus smoking is a recipe for heart disease, for sure. That is how you get heart disease.
18:47🔗CallerBut you're just a little too young to be smoking.
18:49🔗DrewAlso, it will harden the arteries of the brain. You'll get strokes and it can also contribute to kidney disease. So you have a serious conditioner and I know at 14, you want to ignore that you have diabetes, but you've got it. Adding tobacco to that is a recipe for serious medical problems in the next 10, 20 years.
19:11🔗AdamWhen you say recipe, it's not actually in a book or anything. If I were to write a recipe for a disease, it's not like a spa show or something.
19:34🔗AdamHere's what I wanted to ask. When we grew up, there was not the anti-smoking campaign that's going on now. Sure, we saw at four in the morning, Yule Brenner came on and talked to us from the grave. You remember that one?
20:12🔗AdamYule Brenner was the bald guy with the accent from The King and I. And if you younger people, if you saw a picture of the guy, you would know who he was. He was a famous actor.
21:04🔗AdamWe'll give him room to play with it. Here's the deal, Yule. There's no doubt we're doing a PSA here, but I want you to have fun with it. Don't be scared to paraphrase. That must have been a great day in Yule's life. Looking at this copy and the parts, like, announcers.gov, Yule, I'm dead. By the time this film gets developed, I'll be scattered over the ocean.
21:28🔗CallerHey, when's this going to air? Next week? We're going to start running the spots next week.
21:34🔗AdamYeah. As soon as we can, we're going to rush it through post, see if we can get it on, and time for sweeps, Yule.
22:04🔗AdamAll guys, if you go with, he wore like a Nehru jacket with no shirt on underneath it, and he shaved his head at 19, and he was constantly tanned. Therefore, when he was 60, he looked exactly the same as he did when he was 30.
22:26🔗AdamBut here's what I wanted to ask. All the negative smoking campaigns are out now. Now, smoking is traditionally something kids do to rebel. They want to be naughty, they want to be dangerous, they want to be defiant and stand up to the man. Do you think that the anti-smoking campaigns are making it that much more dangerous and that much more defiant? You know what I'm saying?
22:51🔗DrewIt makes it that much more enticing. Yeah.
22:53🔗AdamYeah, I mean, you know, you had 25, 30 years ago when it was like, cigarettes may be bad, but the jury's still out. Well, it's like, all right, I'll smoke, I'll be bad anyway. But now you're really bad if you smoke at 14. All right. Bill Dwyer is here tonight from BattleBots.
23:54🔗CallerAnd you're listening to Loveline with Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew.
23:58🔗AdamYes, you is. And another one of the stars in the galaxy over at Comedy Central, Bill Dwyer is here tonight.
24:05🔗CallerThat's a beautiful network, that Comedy Central.
24:08🔗AdamI do like them, especially although I'm coming from MTV, so anything seems good. It's all relative for that piece of ass network. You know, one thing you got to give me kudos for, I said horrible things about MTV the whole time I was on the network, and since I've been off, I haven't really said anything bad about them.
24:26🔗AdamOkay. Here's the deal. Cheap, cheap amateurs is how I would classify MTV. Very super cheap. Super duper duper duper cheap.
24:39🔗CallerCheap in certain areas. Cheap in certain areas. Whatever they're doing to show talent, writers, everybody, they go cheap.
24:48🔗AdamThat's right. That's right. They remind me of K-Rock, the mother station out here in Los Angeles, which is super duper cheap in the sense that, hey, and here's their argument. We're doing you a favor by putting you on our network. You 21-year-old who no one has ever heard of. Oh yeah, sure. We're giving you exposure. Right. And in a way, they got a point. It's just other networks don't look at it that way. All right, anyway, Bill Dwyer, Comedy Central's, I was going to say Man Show, but that's my show, BattleBots.
25:27🔗AdamYeah, it's really. Oh, man. You know the thing about the Man Show, it's fine when you're doing it. It's just when you have to watch it, it's just painful. It's very uncomfortable.
25:38🔗AdamYeah, Loveline was the same way. Felt fine sitting out there. And you watch it, especially if you're watching with somebody.
25:44🔗DrewOh, you go, holy Christ, what were we talking about?
25:47🔗CallerYou know, I warmed up your show once. I met you guys a long time ago. I warmed up your show once. But like when it first started, I warmed it up. And, you know, that's crazy. I was a terrible warm up. I was just awful. Well, I did it because I did it once.
26:50🔗CallerAnd I could be watching TV or something. Like, what are you doing? I'm like watching TV. He's like, well, why don't you go do something productive, like clean your room or something?
27:00🔗CallerAnd I'd be like, well, OK. My room's clean. I spent two hours in it this morning. And then he would storm on into my room. And then when he would find a piece of dust or something, he would yell at me and tell me that it's filthy, blah, blah, blah, and then I'd have to clean it. Yeah. All right.
27:16🔗AdamWell, he's busting your chops a little bit.
27:18🔗DrewIt's quasi normal parent behavior, though.
27:28🔗AdamWell, I mean, your dad busts your chops. What about your mom? Does she defend you?
27:34🔗CallerWell, since when I first had the thought of stabbing my dad, I told my mom and she's like, well, I know you can pull through this because I know you have that capability. I know you're strong enough to do that. Sometimes when he's yelling at me or something, he'll say, she'll be like, well, Tom, you do the same thing too.
28:43🔗AdamOkay. Well, listen, Ryan, many teenage boys had many a fantasy. Hopefully, it's about women, but for you it's about stabbing your dad. You're not going to do it, correct?
28:55🔗CallerWell, one night, he willed at me and see, I found this all started happening since I've been diagnosed with diabetes. Oh boy. I mean, I don't-
29:11🔗DrewAll right. So there's a lot of stuff going on here. You've got the dealing with having a serious illness. Adolescents do a lot of strange stuff with diabetes. They stop taking their insulin. They just blow the whole thing off.
29:24🔗AdamWell, what will it do to you if you stop? I mean, what's it do to your mind?
29:28🔗DrewNot his mind. I mean, he'll end up in a hospital very quickly with some called diabetic ketoacidosis, which is a life-threatening problem and happens rather quickly. But then on top of that, you've got a dad who is very aggressive and who is creating, who is helping sort of initiate these fantasies of aggressive acting out on your part in the face of trying to deal with having chronic illness and a dad that blows up at you. There's a lot going on here, right? Why don't you talk to the doctor that's helping with the diabetes about getting help with dealing with being diabetic? They'll get you sending to somebody to talk to about this. There's a whole thing that adolescents go through. There are people that specialize in helping adolescents deal with that.
30:26🔗CallerWell, she said, I know you're strong. You get through this. I mean, they're Catholic. You know, you know, maybe wants to talk with his priest. I don't know. Sometimes it's sometimes they're good guys. You know, sometimes you can talk to a priest and they're okay. You know, at least you can talk to somebody and you know, they're not going to squeal.
32:54🔗CallerYeah, I'm 20. The reason I'm calling is because I'm a bit confused, right? Like, I would call myself bisexual, but then again, I'm not. Like, that probably doesn't make sense.
33:07🔗DrewWell, let's say bye-bye to hetero, I think is one of those.
33:10🔗CallerYeah, I'm not straight. I know that much.
33:12🔗DrewYeah, okay. And at your age, it's very common for young men who are gay to not want to be gay, to really have difficulty struggling with that and cling to anything they can to try to sort of dilute that reality.
33:25🔗AdamWell, if you start off as a heterosexual, don't you almost have to pass through bisexual county to get to gay-ville? Do you know what I mean?
33:36🔗CallerYeah. I'm cruising on the road right now. I don't know where I want to stop. Does that make sense?
33:59🔗CallerThe thing is, though, is when I'm with a guy, right, like, I don't necessarily enjoy it. But when I'm with a girl, I just like having sex with girls better. But like, say...
34:13🔗AdamBut all the pressure of a 20-year-old male to have sex with other males, you know, society.
34:16🔗CallerBut like, when I masturbate, like, it's all guy. Like, it's, it's like, like, internet porn, whatever. It's all guy. Like, I, I just... Girls do nothing for me.
34:24🔗DrewYou know, you like having sex with women better?
34:34🔗CallerIt's like, I don't have, you know, I don't have to, to, to go down. Like, I don't enjoy, I don't enjoy, like, the act of having sex with a guy. I just enjoy, like, the fantasy of it and everything leading up to, you know, the sex.
35:10🔗DrewThat's not experimenting. Somebody had to do that to you to begin with, to get it going. Where to first start?
35:17🔗CallerI don't know. The first time I ever remember is, my mom caught me in a friend, like, out in the backyard. I was, like, four. Looks like one of the vague memories I've got of being four years old.
35:26🔗AdamOkay. Be that as it may, you enjoy sex with a woman, but you fantasize about sex with a man. Do you think because it's sort of taboo or naughty or something?
35:40🔗AdamWell, let me float this theory. We never talk about it for men, but women will oftentimes fantasize about things they would never do sexually when it comes to masturbating. Do you know what I'm saying? Hold on, Drew, don't crap on this theory just yet. This may be a decent theory. Bill, join in on this.
35:59🔗CallerI'm right here. I'm right here with you.
36:01🔗AdamYou'll bring her. No. Women will fantasize sexually about having threesomes and orgies and sometimes even being raped and stuff like that.
36:14🔗AdamBut in real life, they would never want to be raped or manhandled or what have you. But this is a fantasy. They go to a naughty place for their fantasy. Men never do this. Men, they would love whatever they're jacking off to. They would love just to walk right out of the TV screen and actually do it. But could Mike be a kind of guy who's actually liking the homoerotic stuff because it's dirtier, it's more taboo for his masturbation. But in real life is really not that physically into it.
37:17🔗DrewI know, shocking. But this is a perfect sort of situation for therapy because you've got to sort of pick a direction here and you've got to sort of sort through what's pulling you in each direction.
37:28🔗DrewHe sounds kind of ambivalent and confused and he likes having sex more with women. He has two things that you never see in either gay or straight men. Straight men don't have fantasies about homoerotic stuff and feel great about it.
38:03🔗CallerMost of my friends are like... Most of my close friends... Well, I have like three really close girlfriends, three really close guy friends. It's very evened out. I don't feel like...
38:12🔗DrewIf you're happy with this, go on. I mean, enjoy, but if this is conflicted for you, you need to kind of sort this out.
38:20🔗CallerHe's bisexual. But it doesn't sound that bad. He's talking to his mom about it.
38:30🔗AdamI'm into the ladies. Bad news, whacking off to a gay internet war. All right, good night. Happy Rosh Hashanah. Bill Dwyer is our guest tonight from BattleBots.
38:44🔗AdamWe will take ourselves a little break. We'll be back.
38:49🔗CallerLoveline will be right back. So get your problems ready. Ready.
39:23🔗AdamHey, everybody, it's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Bill Dwyer is our guest tonight. Bill is the host of BattleBots, 10 o'clock Tuesday nights Comedy Central. This is a great show.
39:40🔗CallerThe only Comedy Central show that's good for the whole family. The only one, really.
40:30🔗AdamHis dad was a big ring announcer for many years. I think it's Jimmy Lennon Jr. He doesn't look like a ring announcer, sort of a blonde, sort of meek looking guy. I think his dad did it for many, many, many years. But be that as it may. Melanie? Yeah. You're 25?
41:37🔗CallerWe kind of bailed on each other. I was too young and he started bailing out saying, you know, go get an abortion. I said, heck no. It took two to make this baby. It's at least going to take one to raise it.
41:48🔗AdamThat's a nice piece of nothing that helps your kid in no way.
42:11🔗CallerWell, I sometimes... I'm learning that a lot of my problem probably stood by the good girls like bad boys, but, you know, I've done it all. No, no.
43:37🔗DrewYeah. This is your problem. This is what you're looking for. It's not about being bad. It's about trying to make good the abandoning dad. So what you pick is guys that are abandoning.
43:46🔗AdamRight. Now you got two kids who don't know their dad.
43:54🔗DrewTrying to fix something from her past. Make it good this time. Make him love me this time. But of course, when you pick guys that are abandoning, they abandon. Yeah. That's the kind of guy you pick.
44:02🔗AdamThe thing that's horrible about the logic of it, and there's no logic involved with it. It's an emotional thing. It's like you had a car growing up that always had a bad carburetor. So you're going to buy a new car and try to fix the carburetor, except for the new car is fuel injected and doesn't have a carburetor, but it doesn't matter. You're going to fix in the new car what was broken in a car you had 20 years ago.
44:40🔗DrewDreams of Love and Fateful Encounters. And we'll help you understand why you do these things. From an actual knowledgeable perspective, not a bunch of aphorisms.
44:49🔗AdamI'd like to recommend one called Hop on Pop.
45:41🔗DrewThey're living that life. That's the one they're living with you.
45:44🔗AdamYeah, absolutely. And listen, even if they're too young to speak, one of them is, one of them isn't. The ones that can't speak is all just vibration. Believe me, you're sending it off. All right. Let's talk to Lizzie, who's 17. Lizzie?
45:59🔗CallerI'm on this medication. Well, I'm on this medication to stabilize my mood, but I'm really depressed and the doctor won't put me in antidepressants.
46:20🔗DrewOkay. Well, then you need to keep talking to your doctor about it. I'm sure they have reasons for not wanting to. You probably had some severe manic episodes, right?
46:27🔗CallerNo, I didn't. Well, I had kind of anger issues.
46:32🔗DrewYeah, that's mania. Irritability is mania. And that must have caused you some problems.
46:37🔗CallerWell, it wasn't irritability. It was more like rage.
46:40🔗DrewOkay. Call it what you wish. It must have caused some serious problems, and they above all don't want to trigger that mania again.
46:47🔗CallerBut wouldn't the Depakote kind of like override it?
46:51🔗AdamHey, Dr. Lizzie, who's currently going for a GED and having difficulty, why don't you just listen to goddamn doctors, would you please? Yes?
47:02🔗DrewGet your levels checked. Make sure you get an adequate level of Depakote. Maybe a little more, Sarah Quill will talk to them about that. But let them do their job. Okay? All right. That's somebody you can't relate to that, just get another one, but don't prescribe for yourself.
47:15🔗AdamAll right. And don't get pregnant. Yeah.
47:34🔗AdamI was, well, we'll get back. She can ask for favors. Looking at the clock and she goes, Adam, just one more favor. And I look at the clock and I went, well, we're running late for break. And then she stumbled for the next 20 minutes.
48:27🔗AdamHey, everybody, it's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla, and that is Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. David Alan Greer is going to be in here tomorrow night, so everyone buckle up for that. He always comes in here in a real manic episode and goes nuts.
48:44🔗How long have you been blind, deaf, and dumb?
49:06🔗CallerCalling up, you pick the posers just like that. I don't care about coming back. My stomach's also churning, too. All this crazy stuff. I'm on Zoloft and Bancroft and what?
49:20🔗AdamBill, you can find September 10th on his half-hour comedy special at 10 o'clock on Comedy Central as well. So-
49:28🔗DrewHow come Adam and I have to do a comedy special for you?
49:32🔗AdamWell, I'd imagine if I tried to put together a stand-up act, they might let me do something.
50:13🔗CallerAll right. Let me explain. About a year ago, actually, like a year exactly, I got locked up and it really sucked and basically there was nothing to do there. You know, I sat around and got fat.
50:23🔗DrewYou're talking about a psychiatric hospital?
50:26🔗DrewYeah. This is why they don't want to give you antidepressants, all right?
50:29🔗CallerWell, no. I wasn't on any medication at the time.
50:32🔗DrewI understand, but you must have done something rageful.
50:35🔗CallerNo. Actually, it was for running away. But anyway, basically, the only thing they had, there was this radio and it was really great because once you got up to like this high level, you got the radio to listen to at night. There was this song you used to always sing. Do you know what song I'm talking about?
51:08🔗AdamYeah. You Anderson, you have the old vagina song? Because I don't really remember what it was exactly. I don't know where it goes. What goes on in the old vagina, the old vagina, the old vagina. Yeah, there you go. Thank you, Lizzie. No problem.
51:24🔗DrewAll right. We haven't heard Taboo II in quite some time though, I must admit.
51:27🔗AdamLet's hear it. Okay. Why not? This is the theme to one of my favorite old porn movies, Taboo II, and it's about a guy, the main character, the central character, his character's name is Junior. Junior is not only banging his girlfriend, but his sister and his mom.
51:52🔗DrewHowever, in that day and age when this porn was actually created, he was considered just an expressive, creative, experimental kind of guy. Just, just exploring his sexuality.
53:51🔗CallerOkay, well, um, like, probably about a year ago, I started, like, you know, a guy just called in, you know, and he said how he was, like, experimenting when he was younger, and I was just wondering if that was weird at such a young age, because, you know, I, like, was experimenting with my friend.
54:08🔗DrewWell, experimenting is one thing, but doing sexually directed activities.
54:27🔗CallerYeah. Well, no, it's like, um, it's like I like being with guys, you know, like, but it's just, it's like I feel more comfortable with girls, and it's like, we abuse by mail. Yeah.
56:10🔗CallerI mean, I was like talking to my dad about it because this also brings up the other question. And whenever I get really pissed off, I was just wondering if this is like weird because whenever I get really pissed off, it is like I burn myself like and it's like I can't feel the pain. It makes me feel better.
56:26🔗DrewYeah. It's the way of managing the overwhelming.
56:28🔗CallerAnd it's like I just want to know if that was weird because my friend kind of pointed out to me and said, you know, I should stop.
56:33🔗AdamWell, it's weird for people who weren't raped by their stepdad and didn't have their mother killed. But for what you've been through, it's about normal.
56:41🔗DrewBut it is a symptom of how severe your distress is emotionally. And it really does suggest treatment is warranted here.
56:49🔗CallerThat means that I'm kind of not over it. I mean, I feel like I'm over it.
56:53🔗DrewYou're not over that. I'm not sure you ever get over it.
56:55🔗CallerYou're not going to get over that for...
56:57🔗DrewIt sounds like you're managing it okay, but you've got some other stuff going on here.
57:15🔗AdamYour mom made a decision that got you molested and got her killed, basically.
57:21🔗CallerWell, I was just wondering if it's like, I mean, is it just like I'm ignorant right now or is it just that I'm a bisexual or something? What is it?
57:39🔗DrewAnd to your sexuality particularly is going to be kind of an issue for you because of having been so badly sexually abused. So you need help sorting through these things. There's a lot of that part of the brain, that emotional part of the brain that's not logical and doesn't use language, that needs help developing with the traumas it's been through and you need very trusted care.
58:14🔗DrewAll right, Allison, just put that in perspective. Of course, he doesn't do any work. He doesn't talk or anything.
58:20🔗AdamTalk about Pop Warner football. My dad's great. You know, I love to, you know, my thing in life now is I now torture my dad. Oh, really? For being an absentee dad because he's broke and he wants, you know, he, he's a, he's a good enough guy. He was, he was, he was not a great dad.
58:35🔗CallerWas he always working or was he, was he horsing around?
58:38🔗AdamHe wasn't doing either one. He liked to sit home and read. He didn't like to go to Pompa Warner football games. But now, now he needs the son because he wants to go back to Philadelphia once a year and stuff. He doesn't have any money. So I got to pay for him. But I like to torture him now, which is the goodness. And he, I told him two things. I, I, he, he wanted to go back for his birthday to Philadelphia again. And he said, yeah, can you afford that? And I said, oh, the question isn't whether I can afford it. The question is, do you deserve it? Which felt nice. And then he laughed. Then the other day, yeah, he laughed. And then the other day, I talked to him and he said, yeah, I just got back in town. I was in Colorado for about four days. And I said, you were in Colorado? And he said, yeah. And I said, geez, I don't remember authorized paying for that. You got another son? What's going on here? Yeah, it's nice. It's great. That's why every kid should be successful. They go back and torture the parents. Yeah. All right. Allison has a lot of work to do, but she's doing good for someone who's been through what she's been through. And Allison, you're going to have a million different feelings and don't question them, but also don't act on them.
1:00:20🔗CallerDoes he take his pants off or does he do it through his pants?
1:00:24🔗CallerWell, I was he was sitting on the couch and I was like sitting at the computer and then he would cover himself with a blanket but I would see him like his hand moving up and down and he would have like a horny look on his face or something.
1:01:31🔗AdamYeah. You just heard the theme from Taboo, so you know it happens. Okay. But you don't. Yes. I know you thought that you knew your brother, but you don't. Maybe you did, but you don't now. Okay. Can you say something to him? What have you said something to him?
1:01:50🔗CallerWell, I have. I said, you know, go in the bathroom or something, and he's like, he doesn't really respond.
1:01:56🔗CallerHe's getting a kick out of it, too. He must be.
1:02:14🔗CallerI don't know, but he did run up, like, a thousand dollar phone bill on sex.
1:02:22🔗DrewSex lines? Yeah. Is there addiction in your family? Alcoholism? Yeah. Yeah. Something may have happened to him early on. He may have been sort of touched or something, and you add that to a gene for addiction, and you get people that can't contain some of those sexual behaviors. And so, he really needs, I mean, your mom needs to take this very seriously, because this is going to be a progressive issue for him.
1:02:48🔗AdamYeah. Your mom, tell your mom that Drew and Adam said contain this little effer before he's unleashed on society.
1:04:15🔗CallerYeah, and I'm like, what are you doing?
1:04:17🔗AdamBut Tina, here's what I'm going to... I'm going to give you the speech I give to people I usually reserve for people with bad roommates, which is, A, put a lock on your door. You don't need this guy getting hopped up on Nyquil and stumbling in your room at four in the morning while you're asleep.
1:04:35🔗AdamGood. Lock your door every night. In your 19, it's time to start thinking about moving out, going to college, or getting a gig, or whatever.
1:06:06🔗AdamNo, the guy is a genius. And he went on to have this huge set building company that builds these crazy sets for all these huge commercials. Commercials where the cars are driving through the mazes and there's a giant boulder behind them. He does all that. Now the guy is a millionaire and everything, so it's all cool. Um Gad was driving us nuts because we had three guys living in one bedroom. And me and the Wheeze decided we wanted him out, but we couldn't, we didn't have the heart to tell Ami, hey, it's time to hit the road and he didn't have any place to go. So I called our landlord, his name was Jim.
1:06:42🔗CallerCan you tell if you had three people living there?
1:06:45🔗AdamHe was in his 50s and he wore braces, this guy, Jim. But I called Jim and I said, hey Jim, Adam, the world's worst tenant and yes, you remember me, the guy, by the way, when Jim came to clean out our apartment after we'd moved, he announced to me that in his 30 some odd years and 20 some odd apartment buildings with hundreds and hundreds of units, he'd never seen a unit in this bad of condition. He'd never, he just kept telling me that repeatedly. It was like, in a way, it was a sort of form of flattery, it was a dubious honor.
1:07:17🔗DrewWe have to find this guy and bring him in here. Oh my God.
1:07:20🔗AdamOh the stories he would tell you. But this guy, so I called my landlord, and it was one of these great conversations. I said, Jim, this is Adam. I don't know if you know it, but we got three guys living here right now, and we want one of them out. So if you could draft up an official looking letter saying that has come to your attention that there's three and that's a violation of the agreement and blah, blah, blah, we could get this guy out. He goes, you're not supposed to have three guys living there. And I go, I know, that's why I'm making the phone call, and I want one out. When did three guys move in there? It's like, Jim, let's not live in the past. Draft the goddamn letter, let's get this thing moving. He'd acted as if he'd stumbled on to thing, and I kept going, I know, right there he goes, well, this is going to have to end. No, write the letter, we'll get this thing done. He was like, yeah, because you can't have three people.
1:08:11🔗CallerIn his head he's going, I thought he was going to tell you, you couldn't have two guys.
1:08:14🔗DrewIf you think you're going to manipulate me in to help you. Now wait a minute, but that guy's got to go. Wait a minute.
1:08:35🔗AdamI love that BattleBots. Go ahead there, Crystal.
1:08:39🔗CallerOkay, I'm not saying I've had sex, but I was just wondering, what is the probability of being pregnant, like, after had sex for like two minutes with protection?
1:08:59🔗DrewYeah, I understand, of course. It's theoretically a 13 year old named Crystal who didn't have sex. I think you're pretty well protected there if the condom stayed on.
1:09:08🔗CallerSo you're saying that you most likely wouldn't be pregnant?
1:09:12🔗AdamWell, if the condom functioned correctly, it didn't break or come off or anything.
1:09:44🔗AdamAll right. Hey, Crystal. Yeah? Just because you're not pregnant this time doesn't mean you're not going to be pregnant the next time, all right?
1:09:53🔗AdamAnd so keep that in mind. Yeah. Thank you. All right. Take care of yourself. Bye. All right. Bill Dwyer is our guest tonight from BattleBots on Comedy Central Tuesday nights, 10 o'clock. We're going to take ourselves a little break when we come back. Drew, we're going to speak to Matt. He's 22 while sleeping. He has sex with his girlfriend. It's like sleepwalking, he claims.
1:10:47🔗CallerMr. Lovelove up front and person, and you're listening to Loveline with Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew. Got it going on up close and personal.
1:10:59🔗AdamHey, everybody. It's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. That is Dr. Drew. Bill Dwyer is our guest tonight. He is from BattleBots, 10 o'clock, Tuesday nights, Comedy Central.
1:11:10🔗AdamNo, but mostly mostly for the for the teens, the male teens. I love this show. I really do. I really enjoy the BattleBots.
1:11:22🔗CallerI'm telling you, it's a great show. I got to say, I've got to say, I think it's a great show. It you know, nobody gets hurt. Exciting. Learn something.
1:11:32🔗AdamMaybe it moves and it looks great. And they really up the ante this year in the Battle Dome there because they have all the hazards are scary now. I mean the hazards used to be more like speed bumps than they were actual hazards. There were things that sort of got in the way of you and the other robot, but now they destroy you.
1:12:09🔗AdamThe thing that I couldn't get a straight answer to when I was out there doing it, because as I said earlier, Jimmy and I went and did an exhibition thing against Jay Leno's robot.
1:12:18🔗CallerAnd you were... you know what? Kudos to you, my friend. You were driving okay. You had some bad moments, but you got in there and you were actually able to drive. Again, that's hard. People don't realize.
1:12:29🔗DrewThat's the experience flying those model airplanes.
1:12:31🔗AdamWell, you know what was funny is I had this bot that had four wheels...
1:12:40🔗Adam.blades, saw blades, big, 60-tooth carbide, shop-grade, you know, like 12-inch saw blades. Now, I don't know if you've ever tried to drive something that doesn't actually have a tire on it. It actually has a saw blade on sort of a metallic floor. It doesn't exactly go real nice. I mean, when you stop, it doesn't stop. When you start, it spins out. But the thing was really funny. Mine wouldn't work, right, at the beginning of the match? Yeah. And the guy said, look, he gave me the remote. The remote had two gimbals on it, just like the one I used to fly the model airplane, so I felt pretty comfortable. And he said, push this one forward, and it'll go forward, and then you pull it back, it'll go reverse. I said, all right. He went over there. He worked on it a little. While he was working on it... You pushed it? No. He flipped it over. And then he came back, and he said, all right, you're ready to go. And I said, didn't you just flip the thing over? Because they make them so they can be flipped over and work both ways. He said, yep. And I said, well, now if I push forward, the thing goes backwards, and if I pull back, the thing goes forward. And he goes, oh yeah, that's right. And I thought, hey, thanks for the tip, pops. Thanks for the goddamn tip. We're about to start the thing, and I'm 180 degrees off here.
1:14:05🔗Bill DwyerWell, I tend to wake up in the middle of the night when I'm sleeping over at my girlfriend's house, 20 minutes or so after initiating sex with her.
1:14:27🔗DrewHe's already asleep again. What are you talking about?
1:14:29🔗Bill DwyerNo, I wake up and I'm on top of her and trying to do something, but of course I'm unconscious and I don't realize that she's got clothes on and God knows what I'm doing, you know?
1:15:18🔗Bill DwyerYeah, and we usually end up having sex, but it's really embarrassing at first. And also I've heard about like sleepwalkers becoming violent if you wake them up and that kind of worries me.
1:16:11🔗AdamOh, I know, no, no, that sounds like a bizarre notion for a 22-year-old who's raping his girlfriend while she's asleep, but why don't you go ahead and just have the sex before you go to bed? I bet it'll get out of your system.
1:16:22🔗Bill DwyerWell, a lot of times we're getting in really late at night, you know, we're both tired, we just want to sleep.
1:16:29🔗DrewOkay, well, listen, you're not using drugs or alcohol by the time you go to sleep.
1:16:34🔗Bill DwyerWell, sometimes, yeah, we may have been drinking.
1:16:36🔗DrewAlright, well, again, cut back on the alcohol, I agree with Adam, be more structured with your sleep, have sex before, go to bed earlier, sleep adequately. I mean, sleep hygiene is a big part of this whole issue.
1:16:49🔗AdamWell, and Matt sounded, and I know we were kind of making fun of him, but he sounded genuinely disturbed about something that is fairly normal and not that wild, and he wasn't hurting her, and she goes along with it.
1:17:02🔗CallerYeah, you're a little embarrassed, and then you wake up, and then you're having sex.
1:17:06🔗DrewAnd if you really are worried, you can see a neurologist or a sleep specialist, because there can be seizure-type phenomena associated with this.
1:17:12🔗AdamWell, put it this way, I have trouble sleeping when there's a pie in the refrigerator. I always have trouble sleeping around Thanksgiving. If I know there's half a pumpkin pie downstairs in the fridge, I will get up at some point and eat it. Because I'm going to bed knowing that there's-
1:17:31🔗DrewIf that pie were laid down right next to you.
1:17:33🔗AdamI would definitely rape the hell out of that pie. I'd give it some-
1:17:40🔗AdamI can do both. That's the beauty of me. I'm telling you that tin would not be good for redemption at Marie Callender's.
1:17:49🔗CallerThat sounds like the greatest morning. Waking up, sleeping, sex, and then get an automatic coffee maker.
1:17:56🔗AdamHe should beat one out before he goes to bed. Go to bed in a pair of Levi cutoffs or something. Get her to get naked and don't be so freaked out about it. Every 22-year-old does this.
1:18:08🔗AdamYes, we've all done this. No, but you guys, you know what I'm talking about? There's some nights, it's true, you get home, you're tired, maybe a little drunk, you go, we should have sex, and then you think, oh, screw it, I'm tired. You passed out, you fall asleep for two hours, you wake up, and now you got a new charge on your battery.
1:18:27🔗Bill DwyerAll right, since third grade, I was taking different forms of Ritalin. Ritalin at first, then Dexedrine after a couple years, then Adderall. Last year, I said, screw this, and I stopped partially because of what you said, Drew, when you had the TV show saying that it decreased size and-
1:19:03🔗DrewIt's not methamphetamine though. It might decrease the sort of the tumescence of the penis. In other words, the performance of your penis might be altered by it.
1:19:14🔗Bill DwyerOkay. Well, I stopped taking that a year ago. Can that get back to full potential of what it would have been had I not taken that?
1:19:39🔗AdamAll right, hold on. I got to talk about something for a second. I'm going to try to save this call by talking about something that he brought up. Ritalin is a sort of speed.
1:20:41🔗AdamI do. It's just I will use porn as a template for my penis, but I have a 14 inch TV and I will go actual size. I will actually hold my penis up next to the six millimeter penis of Ron Jeremy and think, well, I got a bigger one than him. Now, coincidentally, my head is eight times his size. So is my hand, but it still makes me feel better.
1:21:08🔗DrewAdam admitted me once. He takes a snow globe, a snow globe that holds it up to his penis. So he feels like the penis is threatening the village below.
1:21:38🔗AdamAll right. Jimmy, your penis is fine. Yeah. It's you that you got to worry about and stop focusing on your penis. Really? Is there anything you're good at in life? Is there anything you like?
1:22:40🔗CallerDo women ever call up with too big a vagina?
1:22:43🔗AdamThey worry that it's going to be too big if it's a man, but it's never too big. Jesse?
1:22:52🔗CallerYeah, here's my question. I'm getting married in two weeks, and my fiance has been on birth control pill for two months. And as far as I know, her gynecologist has told her that she can control her cycle with these pills, but it's not controlling the cycle, like she's starting the cycle right now.
1:23:13🔗DrewShe's not cycling, she's having mid-cycle bleeding, which is one of the side effects of the pill. She needs to talk to the doctor about it and adjust the pill.
1:23:21🔗CallerWell, that's the problem is we called the doctor and they said, well, we can't really get you in before the wedding, so.
1:23:27🔗DrewWhy can't they just handle this over the phone?
1:23:30🔗CallerI don't know. That's what I was thinking. If it's not anything serious, then why can't they just give us some info? And so I thought, hey, I'll call Loveline.
1:23:37🔗DrewWas it a gynecologist you're saying? Yeah, a gynecologist.
1:23:41🔗AdamWell, Jesse, here's the plan, by the way.
1:23:46🔗AdamYou let her have her period, you nail her on the wedding night, then you hang the bloody sheet out the window on the balcony railing, as tradition would have it, and everyone thinks you broke her hymen and she was a virgin.
1:24:02🔗CallerAnd then Michael Landon will come running home from school.
1:24:05🔗AdamThat's right, with the urine soaked sheet, the loneliest runner. Don't think you're going to find that on other shows, by the way, people knowing what the hell you're talking about with Michael Landon.
1:24:57🔗DrewCall them about getting a higher dose estrogen pill or adjusting the dose so the line of the uterus stabilizes. That's what you're looking for. These days, you can take these monophasic pills continuously so she never has her period. That's sort of a new school of thought.
1:25:12🔗AdamLook, I may be old school, but I say hang that bloody sheet out the window.
1:25:36🔗AdamWe'll be right back. Hey, everybody, it's The Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla, he's Dr. Drew. David Alan Greer in here tomorrow night, and anyone who listens to the show with any regularity knows that will be a great show because David is actually very, very funny, and a nice guy. So when he's a friend, so he's a dear, dear friend.
1:26:31🔗DrewSo that was him, your dear, dear friend.
1:26:35🔗AdamThere we go. Bill Dwyer, one of my compadres from Comedy Central, is in here tonight.
1:26:42🔗CallerI kind of feel like I'm being measured up against David Alan Greer.
1:26:46🔗AdamIt's tough because Dave is a dear friend, dear, dear, dear friend, dear friend. But he's, no, you, listen, listen. Bill Dwyer is Bill Dwyer, and David Alan Greer is David Alan Greer.
1:27:24🔗AdamI would love to have some sort of cosmic percentage scale where we all know that 97, 98 percent of shows that are canceled are canceled for low ratings, except for a Loveline TV show. Right?
1:27:38🔗CallerWas that doing well when they canceled it?
1:27:56🔗AdamThe point is that's 95 percent of the time. I'm wondering what the answer that is given 95 percent of the time, because it would never be low ratings. It would be politics and contracts and a-holes and stuff like that.
1:28:08🔗DrewBut they didn't even give it a chance.
1:28:10🔗AdamThat's right. Bill Dwyer on here from BattleBots, which is now in its third season.
1:28:36🔗AdamShe's fine. I have a body. She's beautiful. Good luck in her. Fufu smells a little bit. I got to tell you, but we've been drinking pretty hard. So you never know. We should have should have rode that mechanical bull before.
1:31:51🔗AdamOkay, Marcos. Let me give you some good advice. Do not get your girlfriend pregnant, and if you do have sex with your mom, pull out with her too because... I can't quite figure out Marcos. There was a...
1:32:30🔗CallerAll right. Well, first of all, I just want to say, Adam, your idea of killing the 1% of guys who take the 99% of women is an excellent idea.
1:33:28🔗CallerWell, last Friday, because usually I throw up after like big meals lately, you know, I used to do it twice a day, and now I do it less. And I threw up and the blood came out when I threw up.
1:33:41🔗DrewWell, you can either get a gastritis from all that vomiting or you can tear the esophagus, something called a Mallory Weiss tear. The problem with those tears is the bleeding can be brisk for them and you can actually bleed to death in a few minutes. So it's something that you need to talk to Dr. Matt.
1:34:58🔗AdamNo, Killdozer are good, but a band already named themselves Killdozer, so Bad Ronald. BattleBots, Tuesday nights on the flagship station, which is Comedy Central, 10 o'clock. Everybody catch Bill there and until next time, this is Adam Crowell for Dr. Drew Usain. Mahalo.
1:35:15🔗Bill DwyerI don't know. Is it not accurate to compare to the porno dicks?
1:35:21🔗CallerThis has been Loveline. The opinions expressed on this show are not necessarily those of the staff, management, sponsors, or this station. The producer for Loveline is Ann Wilkins Engel. Loveline is a presentation of Westwood One Entertainment.
