1:02🔗VoiceoverListener discretion is advised. Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew Loveline, Coast to Coast.
1:15🔗VoiceoverThat's right, everybody, it's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla, it's Dr. Drew over there. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Dr. Drew, Board Certified Internist and Addiction Medicine Specialist.
1:32🔗DrewAt the inspirational, those inspirational collars we had yesterday, you made me get back.
1:37🔗AdamYeah, it inspired me to almost kill myself today. Uh, maybe a little lightning round tonight, huh? Yeah, yeah, because a lot of people need to know the surf, the weather, now, in the traffic.
1:51🔗DrewNow, now, you know, I was just going to tap the traffic report today, I thought to myself, here is something that they always say that you've got to do.
1:57🔗AdamHold on, I'll write it down. Ready? Hold on, yeah.
2:03🔗AdamWell, I like to see, I like it when the guys drive with the mattress on the roof of the car. First off, I always love it when a guy carries something in a car that the car was not meant to carry.
2:15🔗AdamLike, I love a good gardener who's using a VW Bug. You know, I mean, he's got the back window blown out and the handle sticking out of it. Right, right, right. You don't see quite as much of that as you used to because I think trucks are a little easier to get hold of these days.
2:33🔗AdamYeah, maybe they're pulling these guys over, but there was nothing better. You know what was the best is when a guy actually modified his car for work. Like the guy drove a 77 Vega, but he was a pool man, so he cut the hatchback off and put some plywood down and made it into a Vega flatbed. I used to see that crap all the time. I was just talking to somebody about this, which was, think about all the weird crap you used to see. You used to see dune buggies, right? You used to see those Baja Bugs, which were the VW Bugs.
3:08🔗AdamVW that was converted into essentially a sand rail, big paddle tires and the engine hanging out of the back with a big stinger exhaust pipe that stuck four feet in the air, big long antenna with a flag on it. People used to drive around those three-wheel choppers.
3:27🔗AdamSome of them had like VW engines in them and stuff like, people used to just, you kids don't know about this, but it used to go out and it was like being in like some kind of Matchbox world or something. You'd be driving down the street and some guy in a three-wheel chopper with a VW engine would pull up next to you.
3:46🔗AdamThat big fiberglass cowling in front, the forks hanging out, this bitch on the back. And then guys would get crazy. He'd be sitting, his seat would be a whiskey barrel that was cut out with some foam in it. Guys used to make their own camper shells all the time. I see like a big wooden camper shell on top of a mini truck. Yeah, those were the days.
4:08🔗AdamBut I like it when a guy's driving down the freeway with a mattress on the roof of his car and his hand is out holding it on. That's brash. Doing 70 down the freeway with the arm. You know it's like, I used to do this all the time too, which is, yeah, it's tied on but not that well. So I'll just give it a little supplemental hold down, which will be the hand that should be on the steering wheel, but that's all right. I can shift and drive with my right hand, no problem. All right, so maybe a little lightening around tonight, because you know, traffic, it can be slow and go and you got to watch out for those taillights or brake lights. Naomi?
4:47🔗AdamYou're 15, Drew, turn that fan the other way, yeah. The air conditioning screwed up, so we got the fan on in here. Go ahead.
4:55🔗CallerOkay, I want to know is, okay, like when I masturbate, I use like a curling iron thing, kind of sort of, because I have like different sizes.
5:15🔗AdamYou would be if you opened up the curling iron, you know, they have that like prong thing on it. It's like a speculum, big speculum. It becomes a heated speculum, yeah, at a certain point.
5:24🔗DrewWhat do you mean you have different sizes of curling iron?
6:39🔗AdamDrew, hold on a second. How distressed would you be as a parent to walk into a room, look under a bed and see a curling iron with a condom rolled over the end of it?
6:47🔗DrewYou know how much denial parents have? You'd think, look how sanitary. She's thinking.
6:52🔗AdamYeah, but you'd think, wait a minute, if she plugged that in and it heated up, it would melt that condom.
8:18🔗AdamYeah. Use the ballpoint pen that's on the back of the curling iron. They should make a Swiss Army curling iron. Yeah, some had some nail clippers, a file.
8:37🔗CallerI am. I have a question. Well, actually, first of all, with Drew, I took your advice. You had said a couple of weeks ago about you're a bad parent if you let your child sleep with you.
8:52🔗DrewI didn't say you're a bad parent. I said not a good idea.
8:55🔗CallerRight, that you're not doing the parenting gig.
9:56🔗CallerJust on a vacation with my son. He's five.
9:59🔗AdamI see. Well, now see, what I always talk about is the cities that are named such as Hawaiian Gardens and Garden Grove. Right. And Lakeview Terrace and places like that. Sunland. Sunland is a dangerous dump, just like Hawaiian Gardens is a dangerous dump. But if you were coming from out of state, you'd say, the hotel, it's in Hawaiian Gardens. Well, it'll be a little slice of paradise.
10:30🔗AdamYeah. I've said, I was saying to somebody, Drew, putting Laura on hold here, you know what I think we ought to do? I think it's too confusing. It's a big tourist town. I mean, Southern California. I think we ought to give cities numbers.
10:45🔗AdamYeah. It's a rank. It's a number. I don't know. I don't know. Beverly Hills or Universal City or Santa Monica. I don't know what's number one. Brentwood, number one, and it just keeps going down. If there's whatever the jurisdiction is, if there's 130 cities, then number one is the best and 130 is the worst. Now, when you're coming from Minnesota, and you're thinking about swinging by Hawaiian Gardens, and then you take a look, 129.
11:14🔗AdamFollowed only by Sunderland, right? You think again. Well, why not? Plus, it gives the city some incentive. It's like, hey, fellas, we're 116. We got to crack the 100.
11:27🔗DrewBut what do people come to Los Angeles for?
11:31🔗DrewWhy don't you ask what you're intending to do here?
11:33🔗AdamBut wouldn't it be cool? That way, you could do that power play on people too, where they would go like, where you live? I'm number 37. Interesting. I'm 19. Yeah. Got a place. Well, I'm right on the border between 19 and 22, but I'm still in 19.
11:51🔗DrewPeople start to get it tattooed on their arms.
11:53🔗AdamYeah. Little scanner codes. What a utopia. All right. Are you on board with my numbers?
12:00🔗DrewYeah, I'm on board with that. I'm just curious why I may come out here.
12:02🔗AdamPlus, it'd be easier to find stuff too. It's easier to remember where number 3 is or number 17 is in Hawaiian gardens, not even by the beach, right? No.
13:17🔗AdamThanks, baby. Yeah. Anyone who thinks they're coming out here, I'm telling you, go to San Simeon or something. There's another San. Go see Hurst Castle. Why? Go to San Francisco. I don't want them coming here.
13:35🔗CallerOkay. You guys have probably heard this before, but I'm 18 years old. I've been with my boyfriend for 10 months, and I can't have an orgasm, and I've never had one in my entire life. I don't want to do it on my own. I don't want to masturbate or anything.
13:55🔗DrewHow do you expect to figure out if you don't do that?
13:57🔗CallerWell, see, I don't feel comfortable doing it on my own. I wanted it to be with him while I was trying to do that, to have an orgasm.
14:10🔗AdamWell, you didn't answer a question, which is why is it so uncomfortable for you to do it on your own? I mean, why do you sort of feel like you have to justify it?
14:19🔗AdamSo it's like if it's sexual, it's okay if it's with a partner, but if it's sexual on your own, then it's kind of dirty or naughty or something?
14:29🔗AdamWell, then do it. Then do it. Do it on your own.
14:32🔗DrewYou got to remember, for many women, it just doesn't make sense. I know it's hard for you to grasp that, but it's something that isn't a normal kind of an impulse.
15:58🔗AdamYeah. I hope his car broke down. He was hitchhiking by the side of the road in a semi. I just clipped him and broke him. He laid there in pain for a few hours and then eventually bled to death.
16:10🔗CallerHe used to live with us. He got kicked out because I think he tried to do the same thing to my sister.
16:16🔗AdamYou know what's really weird, Drew? I don't know why this is, but what is it that's even scarier, dicier and weirder about a guy in his mid-20s who's feeling up his 11-year-old cuz and just almost just feeling up. It's like trying to cop a feel. For some reason, it's more egregious than just traditional intercourse and molestation.
16:43🔗DrewYou're having trouble getting the motivation. What's the impulse there?
16:46🔗AdamYeah. I'm going to grab some preformed boob. There's something that's a little too casual about it too. Like, hey, come on baby, don't be uptight. It's like, you're cut, oh, Jesus. Hey, Rach? Yeah. All right, baby. This didn't ruin you, this cousin thing, but having the kind of family that would spawn a guy like this, maybe.
17:10🔗AdamSomething. Well, they kicked them out eventually.
17:12🔗DrewAll right. But then, look, he has to be able to perform oral sex properly. She's got to experiment maybe with a shower head or the bathtub.
17:21🔗AdamYeah. Right. And you're 18. She seems a little slower than a lot.
17:28🔗DrewMost 18-year-olds are right about where Rachel is. Right. The plumbing isn't working right yet. The whole central nervous system connection with this doesn't quite make sense yet.
17:50🔗CallerI read in an encyclopedia, I guess, because I was curious as to why, at 20 years old, I have a problem keeping it up sometimes. You know, I mean, there's no logical reason for that to me.
18:08🔗CallerWell, very rarely. I was a virgin when I got married, and I mean, never, never done anything. And, you know, I, I don't know how to say it, I don't know, I lasted.
18:24🔗AdamYou what? You were never molested? What did you say?
18:31🔗CallerRight, I lasted a long, you know, I mean, pretty good while for a virgin, I thought. And, my wife was going down on me, and I mean, I just, I didn't get off. I mean, she was probably going down on me for like 15 minutes.
18:45🔗AdamOkay, so hold on now, Nathan. Okay. Are you losing your erection or are you unable to have an orgasm?
18:52🔗CallerNo, no, that's what I say. I think that's when it started because I couldn't, in my mind I was thinking, why am I not finishing? Why am I not finishing? And then finally, on our honeymoon, of all things, you know, my wife's older than me and, you know, she married this young guy. And, you know, it's going, you know, it's just drop, it's losing its hardness, you know, and it, like I say, it's frustrating to me, it's frustrating to her, and I can't seem to make sense of it.
19:17🔗AdamAll right, so, I'll answer my own question. You're losing your erection.
19:22🔗AdamBut it's because you're having difficulty with the orgasm.
19:25🔗DrewThat's where the sort of obsession kicked in. I'm sorry. And I'm just talking to Nathan. I'm getting anxious. I lose an erection talking to him for three minutes.
20:44🔗CallerWell, you know, it's not what everybody says, but you know what I can say? The thing is, is that, you know, I mean, I never had a problem before, obviously. Well, I mean, that I knew of, obviously, but regardless of virgin or not or whatever, it doesn't make any sense to me that at 20 years old, I should even have to worry about it when my wife is...
21:05🔗AdamNo, but hold on, hold on. See, you say at 20 years old and yeah, but you got a 14 and a half year old penis. It's not a 20 year old penis. You were a virgin until a few months ago.
21:18🔗DrewWell, and a sort of handicapped 14 and a half year old penis.
21:21🔗AdamYeah, here's the deal. 20 year old men are good to go and have a boner that lasts longer than taffy. But that's because they've been going at it since they were 15. Right. So his penis is essentially where a 15 year olds is, and that can be a little tricky. He's married, he's got to work it out.
21:43🔗DrewHe is so anxious. I mean, that anxiety has got to go. If he has no internal resource to reduce that anxiety, he needs to see someone because this ain't going away. If he is that nervous and that preoccupied and that obsessional, nothing's going to work.
21:56🔗AdamHold on, Jehovah is not going to let you see somebody, Drew.
22:00🔗AdamUnless it's Jehovah. I don't think so. I mean, you got to see somebody in the church or something. I don't think you get to go to people and know what they're doing. You have to go to molesters. With high school education, we want real help. So here's the deal, just work it out with your wife. And I think Jehovah let him drink a glass of wine. Is Jehovah let you drink now?
22:22🔗CallerWitnesses have never been against drinking. That's Baptist.
22:24🔗AdamOkay, good. All right. Have yourself a glass of red wine and calm yourself before you go into battle next. It's all right. And Drew, turn that fan the other way, please. We're going to take ourselves a little break. When we come back, we're going to go talk to someone from Bakersfield.
22:56🔗DrewWell, you have to have Riverside and Bakersfield.
22:58🔗AdamNo, no. See, to me, they would just go way down on the list, so people who are traveling knew. Riverside sounds great. Bakersfield both sounds great, right? Do you know how many whorehouses and nudie bars you'd have to put into Bakersfield just to get it up to, like, into the 70s? Oh, they'd have to start opening two-story nudie bars. Okay. Oh, see, we got a nudie bar on the bottom, there's a bar in the middle, and there's a nudie bar on top, and then there's a coin-op car wash that's on top of that.
23:29🔗AdamSports bar in the basement. All right. Well, and we sell hobby goods, model airplanes, glue, stuff like that, motor, stuff like that, and high-performance auto parts. We have a high-performance bookstore at the top. All right. We'll take ourselves a little break. We'll be back.
23:47🔗CallerLove Line with Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew. 1-800-LOVE-1-9-1 We'll be right back.
24:20🔗AdamHey, Loveline, everybody. I'm Adam. That's Drew over there. Travis will be in here next week, and Tony Hawk. This guy turns skateboarding into a billion-dollar-a-year industry.
24:46🔗AdamYeah. You want an example of getting rich, doing what you want to do as long as you're the best at it? Skateboarding, for Christ's sake. How the hell do you get, how do you build an empire on your skateboard? It's crazy. All right. He's a good guy though.
26:11🔗AdamShe sound like a little girl. So she did sound about four or five. And you got the sexual abuse. She's really into the sex. But maybe it was just the alcoholic dad who's split and abusive stepdad and- All right.
27:25🔗AdamAll right. So listen, I'm taking the money because I ironically said it sounded like she was four or five. Drew picked four, too, and it sounds like where she got locked in. Her dad then left at four or five. Yeah. I said-
27:45🔗DrewI'll give you the money, but this is like chronic, chronic chaos in the home, which is what I said originally, too. But I'll give you the money nonetheless. You're all money back.
28:29🔗AdamEven if you are right, I'm still right-er. I work the stepdad in and the booze and I mean, the drugs and all right. Kathy, Drew is rarely right. Go ahead. I'm sorry, baby.
28:43🔗CallerWhy are you guys guessing that I'm four or five?
29:05🔗AdamListen, how come Drew said four and I said four or five and then we asked you when it came to a head and when your dad left and you said you were four or five? Doesn't seem like a coincidence?
29:17🔗CallerI don't know. That's the stage that he left.
29:23🔗AdamRight. Oh, boy. Okay. Well, anyway. So what's going on? Doing all that masturbating, huh? Do you have a boyfriend?
29:34🔗CallerI used to, but I dumped him for this other guy and I still don't have the guts to go up to him. I think that's one of the reasons why I'm doing it so many times.
29:44🔗AdamWhat do you mean you don't have the guts to go up to him?
29:46🔗CallerI don't have the guts to go up to him and just tell him that I like him.
29:50🔗AdamOh, you dumped him for another guy that you haven't talked to. Right.
29:54🔗DrewBut you're masturbating a lot because you lived in chaos and a very dramatic upbringing and that's what people do that sort of becomes sexualized, becomes a way of managing affect, escaping from those awful feelings.
30:06🔗AdamAlright, hold on. Let me talk to Drew for a second. Listen.
30:48🔗CallerAnd I don't know where you put your bourbon.
30:51🔗AdamShe's picking weird guys and bringing them home. Okay?
30:54🔗CallerYeah, but my mom and my step dad have been together for like seven years and got married April 10th, 99. And so they know each other pretty well until now.
31:07🔗DrewJust keep going to break control. Stay focused. Stay focused.
31:16🔗AdamThank you. Here's what you need to do in life. You need to not masturbate so much. I can't believe I'm saying that to someone. You need to get your grades good in school and you need to be real careful around boys. Okay?
31:54🔗DrewAll right. And if the condom should break, there's a morning after pill. There's a pill you can take within three days of that happening. That'll prevent the pregnancy from occurring also. Okay?
32:23🔗DrewIt's funny how you go from one Bakersfield to another one.
32:28🔗AdamWhat is... Listen, I know the folks from Bakersfield, if they knew how to dial a phone, would be calling and upset at the things I say about them. But does anyone ever disappoint from Bakersfield?
33:38🔗CallerBecause I am 20 and they say my growing plates are still open. So that way I can possibly still grow taller to help me out my basketball career if I'm going to have one.
33:48🔗DrewWait a minute, growth hormone basically just accelerates the closure of your growth plates. There's evidence that it ultimately makes you shorter than you're going to be.
34:26🔗CallerNo, man, I'm married, but I'm not covered in body hair yet.
34:31🔗AdamI mean, at all. Listen, there's plenty of... Drew, when you were 20, how much body hair did you have on you? Zero. Thank you. Now he has.1%. Yeah, he's a chick. Listen, Jeremy?
34:54🔗CallerIf my one shot is to grow, it would be to get these human growth hormones and stimulate them.
34:59🔗AdamWell, let's say you do that. So what do you do? Squeeze another five-eighths of an inch out of yourself?
35:05🔗DrewMeantime, you get something called acromegaly, which is a disease. It's a disease. You can become diabetic. There'd be a whole mess from taking too much growth hormone.
35:12🔗AdamNow instead of six, two and a half and healthy, you're six, three and an eighth and unhealthy.
35:20🔗CallerWell, have you heard of human growth hormones going wrong? I mean, I know a lot of bodybuilders are on it.
35:25🔗DrewAbsolutely can go wrong. There's a whole, there's a look up acromegaly on the web. Read about what that is, which is a endogenous growth hormone produced by your pituitary gland in excess and the disease that it creates.
35:36🔗CallerOkay, what steroid out there is safe? Because I heard the lady earlier on the Chicago air who said she had the nasal problem and she took the steroid while she was going through surgery and she gained 100 pounds.
35:47🔗DrewYeah, that's corticosteroid. You're interested in anabolic or androgenic steroids.
35:53🔗DrewCorticosteroid is a mineralic corticoid and glucocorticoid. These are completely different kinds of hormones than what he's interested in.
36:01🔗AdamHey Jeremy, hold on. Just wait a second. Do you really think you're going to play some pro ball? Are you going to translate this into some dollars?
36:09🔗CallerWell, the thing is, if I can make the team. What team? The Arizona State University where I'm transferring to.
36:17🔗CallerAnd if I can actually make the team and hold my own, I will get a full scholarship and that's going to save me quite a bit of money.
36:22🔗AdamAll right. But that will be based on your talents.
36:25🔗DrewWell, saving you money versus risking your life?
36:31🔗AdamNo, no. Listen, I understand what he's saying. He's taking a chance. Well, my thing is, if the guy was a good ball player, then he'll go there and make the team. I mean, here's the deal. Basketball of all sports, it's so much about fluidity, rhythm, vertical, vertical leap, hand-eye coordination. It's all about touch. I mean, steroids may even F you up a little bit in that game. So you either...
37:04🔗DrewI mean, the growth hormone can close the holes that your nerves come out of, from your skull, for instance. It can choke them off, it can affect the way nerves are functioning, so you won't be able to have that touch.
37:14🔗AdamYes, you either got that or you don't. So if he does, he's fine. And if he doesn't, he's fine. Either way, this is not going to make a difference. And you give yourself the opportunity to do damage to yourself.
37:27🔗CallerAll right. I have a pretty severe allergic reaction to latex. And I was wondering if there's any type of condom on the market that's non-latex.
37:38🔗DrewYeah, animal skin. You're only looking to that right now?
38:11🔗DrewOkay, I'm gonna ask it differently. What is your current situation?
38:15🔗CallerMy current situation, I am with somebody. However, if that doesn't work out, then I could possibly in the future be with multiple partners, in which case, yes, I am on the birth control pill. However, if I need a backup method because of antibiotics or if I miss a day.
38:34🔗DrewWell, more importantly, if you're having multiple partners in whom you don't know their history, then you got to use it for STD protection, then that would be polyurethane.
38:57🔗CallerAnd you're like, well, all I know is that there's a substance called nitrile. And I was wondering if that's something that they use as a condom.
39:38🔗AdamTake care. We're going to take ourselves a little break. I'm going to call Jimmy and tell him a vegetarian. He'll get a good laugh out of that.
39:54🔗DrewI just want to hear if he actually laughs when you say he's going to laugh at your stuff. Oh, really? I want to see how they truly react. Well, let me call him in advance and tell him to laugh on the air.
40:05🔗AdamAll right. We'll call Jimmy Kimmel when we come back.
40:41🔗CallerHi, this is Dave Navarro, you're listening to Loveline with Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew.
40:46🔗AdamHey, everybody, it's Loveline. Oh, that's right, that's what Dave Navarro said. Phone number, 1-800-LOVE-191. Last break, Drew suggested we call Jimmy Kimmel, my funny partner.
41:01🔗CallerDr. Drew's a more solid, funny, I think, physician, blah, blah, blah, blah.
41:05🔗AdamThat's right. That's him. You know him from the Fox pre-game show, and of course, the Man Show, and Win Ben Stein's Money. The guy's really taken off. He left me in the dust. But I made a joke I thought was funny. Didn't seem to amuse Drew, or Anderson, or...
42:11🔗CallerYou might as well have an aquarium there. I think you get more laughs.
42:14🔗AdamYeah. Morey Eel has a better look on its face than producer Ann. What was it? Well, we had this chick call from Berkeley. Get ready with the high hat here, Anderson, please. We had this chick. She called from Berkeley. She was a little bit uptight. She said she didn't want she didn't want to use a latex condom. And Drew said, well, what about animal skin? And she said, I don't know. And Drew said, well, what's wrong with animal skin? And I said, maybe she's a vegetarian. You see, you hear that laugh?
42:48🔗CallerThat's great. And let me tell you one of my all-time favorite Adam pun jokes. We were we're on vacation with the Juggie Dance Squad and one of them injured her leg and was bleeding. And Adam goes, here, let me squirt a little jack teen on that.
43:06🔗AdamI forgot about the jack team. Well, now, now, Drew's laughing. Maybe it's the delivery.
43:38🔗AdamNo, don't worry. All right. Thanks, buddy. Thanks for the laugh. Genius. No greater connoisseur of comedy than Jimmy Kimmel. Star maker, Jimmy Kimmel. That's right. All right. So there. Oh, Jack team. That's funny. See how much funnier I am when I'm not on the air, Drew?
44:13🔗CallerHi. Dr. Drew, this is actually more for you, I guess. I'm dating a guy who's in recovery for drug abuse, and he's been clean for a year, and we've been dating for about five months, and I'm just wondering if you have any advice because at this point, I kind of feel sort of emotionally ignored, and I've never dated anybody that's gone through recovery.
44:44🔗DrewWell, now you're talking about him as though the recovery started when your relationship, during your relationship, but he was already well into it, right?
44:55🔗DrewHe was about to have gone through recovery. Has he relapsed?
44:57🔗CallerWell, no, actually, he's been in and out of recovery for a long time.
45:01🔗DrewWell, yeah, that's what it sounds like, like he's sort of reconnected with recovery recently and he's had to work at it, and you've sort of felt left behind by that.
45:10🔗CallerNot so much left behind because, you know, it's sort of a new relationship, I guess.
45:17🔗CallerWell, yeah, I guess when we first started dating, it was that sort of typical, you know, just excitement of dating in a new situation. And, but within the last maybe about a month and a half, he's just, maybe I think it's become, because he's coming on a year, he feels like he's supposed to feel really optimistic about it and he's kind of let down, like he's not feeling very positive about it, and he's getting worried that he's not going to make it.
45:42🔗DrewWell, there's a lot of stuff that goes into getting through that milestone of one year, but that's his business. How do you feel with the work he's doing right now?
45:49🔗CallerWell, lately, whenever we get together, for the first like hour and a half, he'll just be kind of going off about, you know, I don't know, just feeling like he wants to get high and just like the emotional trauma that he's going through with that.
46:04🔗DrewAll right, so you're having trouble just dealing with a guy that's ambivalent and chaotic and having difficulty containing his impulse. Sounds like he is getting high, frankly. That kind of thinking and blurting it out all the time and preoccupying about it.
46:21🔗CallerActually, yeah, he was doing heroin and crack and...
46:24🔗DrewI'm suspicious he's using it myself. But maybe that's what you're experiencing. Maybe that's the reason you feel like things are sort of falling apart, is that he's sort of abandoning because he's abandoning you to the drugs.
46:36🔗AdamYeah, you got to kind of ask yourself why you got hooked up with this guy.
46:42🔗AdamI mean, it seems, I mean, you know, she's 30 years old. She sounds intelligent.
46:47🔗DrewWell, here's what it's going to take if this is going to work, probably, is he has to, he's a heroin addict. It takes a lot, a lot of time. His life depends upon his recovery. I've had a whole bunch of patients die recently, and it sort of really reminds me how deadly this disease is.
47:01🔗AdamDo you have to get the family to pay at that point? Was that uncomfortable?
47:10🔗DrewBut it's that he's got to focus on, a lot of his energy has got to go into that, and you have to support that, and you have to go to Al Anon, and you have to grow and focus on your own work. Just feeling that, you know, being left behind by him, and that he's changing and moving away, all that is no good. You're going to kill him if you stay focused on that.
49:35🔗CallerI'm going to try to summarize the situation in order for you to understand my question.
49:39🔗DrewIt better be clearer and shorter, however, though, than the way you posed the...
49:43🔗CallerAll right. My question is, is that, you know, it seems like I'm always, you know, just a stable point for women. And instead of dating, they seem to just look at me as a...
49:57🔗CallerYeah. But they would be like, oh, well, you know, we're so close.
50:02🔗DrewBut did you ask them out ever at the beginning of the relationship? Not once. What's the problem once you're in a friendship? Straight out of the blocks, you've asked a few out and just no.
50:10🔗CallerWell, I asked a few and then I haven't asked a few. It becomes really depressing after a while.
50:17🔗DrewSo, in spite of asking them out and trying to get a relationship going, they immediately size you up as a friend.
50:23🔗CallerMost of the time, and I'm just wondering, man, what's my problem?
50:32🔗DrewYeah, but I understand. Yeah, I understand you can't see it anyway, then it's always that way, but it's not always that way. So, when it isn't, what's the difference?
50:41🔗AdamWell, you know how women are? They're like guys who work at a used car lot, and if they see you coming in there looking a little confused with money hanging out of your pocket, and you don't know anything, and you got that just fell off the turnip truck look, they just take you to the cleaners.
50:57🔗CallerYeah, well, I'm a pilot, and I'm not exactly stupid. You know, I am very smart.
51:02🔗AdamNo, I don't mean stupid. I just mean when a woman, when you come and approach a... Shut up. When you approach a woman from a position of sort of putting a question mark behind everything.
51:15🔗DrewRight, it's, I'm gonna be friend again, or let me detail your van. You may start out with that.
52:19🔗CallerWhat are you talking about? Right now, I'm just flying to get into my CFI, which is Certified Flight Instructor and stuff like that, and multi-engine rating, which would make me be able to fly things like that.
53:00🔗AdamAnd women do not respond to that at all.
53:04🔗CallerWell, I know what I want, I just don't want like, you know, one night stand hanky-panky kind of relationship, you know, because I guess I'm more of a just stable person.
53:25🔗AdamRight. And so how do you get confidence when you have no conquests to build on? You just keep going forward. I mean, what is he 18? Yes, everybody's a mess at 18.
53:48🔗DrewThey think so much of you. You're such a great friend. They'll put if it's true, they'll set you up on dates. And as soon as your their friends respond to you, magically, they'll be attracted to. That's the irony of women, isn't it?
53:58🔗AdamAnd he's also a guy where guys, you see, women don't bloom differently than men.
54:05🔗AdamAs much as they'd like, as you'd like to think they do. No, they bloom sexually. I mean, there's women who aren't interested in sex at 17 or 18 and who are very much interested in sex at 28 or 38. But in terms of their, where they go on the open market, there's usually not a whole bunch of fluctuation.
54:32🔗AdamWhere do they go? Women, you show me a woman who is very attractive to men at 18, and I'll show you a woman who's very attractive to men when she's 22.
54:42🔗DrewAttractive to men. Attractive. Oh, I see. Men change.
54:45🔗AdamWhen she was 16. Guys change drastically. I mean, there are guys like Kenneth over here, who may be a bumbling mess at 18 and at 28, has his commercial's pilot license, got himself some shoes with some buckles on it and some new frames for his glasses and is nailing every stewardess in the airport.
55:07🔗DrewTell me you didn't go through a period of time where you didn't actually repel women. Oh, yeah.
55:16🔗AdamI mean, most guys will undergo this transformation in their lifetime in a very short period of time. I mean, there's a lot of guys. There's some guys that were cool all the way through. But that's 5, 10 percent.
55:36🔗AdamAnd they're born with that. That's why I need to kick my dad in the nuts again. And then there are guys who undergo the transformation, and that's probably the majority of them, or at least quite a few of them.
55:47🔗DrewI was meeting a patient. I've got to share a story with you. I was meeting a patient and I was asking about his family. He goes, he goes, yeah, my dad. He goes, you know what Adam describes his dad? That's my dad.
56:05🔗AdamJust keep pushing forward. Don't do all the questioning and don't do that whole process of elimination thing so you're left with nothing. You know when you do that thing where you go, girls younger than me are too immature. Then girls who are older than me don't want anything to do with a guy my age.
56:21🔗DrewEvery time I go up to one, she just wants to be a friend every time.
56:23🔗AdamThen the girls who are exactly my age think it's too weird that they're exactly my age. You've just effectively eliminated the entire planet from dating you. Don't do that. Don't play that game. If you're attracted to somebody.
56:36🔗DrewIn fact, I think that's the whole point. Don't play any game. Just get into your ass, do your fly flying, focus on that and magically, you'll become attracted to somebody.
57:03🔗AdamJack Dean. Oh, that's how it... You had to be there too. Hot looking chick holding her knee in a pair of short shorts.
57:10🔗Okay, so Dr. Drew, my boyfriend has a, like, I don't know, I guess it's a problem, I think, but I don't really have that much experience, so I don't know. But whenever his penis is erect, it's always constantly coming, like it's constantly...
57:30🔗CallerWell, it's like more than a dribble, and like, I think it's like a lot.
57:36🔗AdamYeah, but hold on, it can't really be more than a dribble. I mean, it's not as if this spigot is just turned on a little bit. It's not a steady flow. It would be drops.
57:52🔗DrewSome guys have a lot. They really do have quite a... And it's really not pre-comb... It's pre-combinated, but it's a lubricant that the prostate puts out.
57:58🔗AdamBut listen, here's the deal. A very little seems like a lot. I mean, it can stain your pants. It can make a mess of things. But it's not like...
58:08🔗DrewIt's normal, too. But it's also stuff that can get you pregnant, so be careful.
58:51🔗CallerBecause no matter, like... No matter what I do, it's always, like, there. Like, I can't even, like, touch his pants or his underwear or anything without, like, feeling it.
59:47🔗AdamYeah, not ever. I mean, you know, when I was 18, I could sit in a dark theater and watch 70 hours of hardcore porn with an erection that I had when I walked into the theater and it would be the same one I had leaving the theater. Nobody else's. After 70 same erection, after 70 hours of porn, you could take a small piece of tissue paper and try to stick it to the end of my rec penis and it would just flutter down to the ground.
1:00:16🔗DrewI just, you and your friends would gather together and try to do that?
1:00:26🔗DrewSet the stage for our listeners so they understand. They're probably confused by what you're describing here. Tell them, Lo, some 30 years ago the lonely male would have to gather with other males in a theater. Yeah. Yeah. There was no videos. There was no DVDs. There was no theater that you could go to and watch pornography, right?
1:00:44🔗AdamYeah, my buddy Zeb worked at the Pussycat. Silver and Lakershim and Ventura. I mean on North Hollywood. And he was there wearing his pink gi, you know, inside the box. It was always great. What a humiliating place to be. It's like you're on display. You're right on the street, you know. And yeah, we'd sneak in there. And listen, you think it sucks to go into a real crowded movie when you're watching an action movie. Try watching porn.
1:01:17🔗DrewWell, at least it's usually the more savory types that would be in those theaters, right?
1:01:20🔗AdamWait a minute, my earphone's going on the fritz. What's that?
1:01:23🔗DrewIt'd be the more savory types that would be in those theaters.
1:01:24🔗AdamThat's right, upper-crust types. A lot of ascots, monogram blazers. Yeah. Imagine what kind of guys were in there. It's 2.30 on a Wednesday. And these guys have been camped in there since 11 a.m. And they're showing a triple feature. Talk about torture. You know, the vast majority of them are not beating off. They're just drinking it all in. And they're going to beat off in the car on the way home or explode in the concession stand or something. But could you imagine? Imagine watching, I know when I explain this to my kids or your kids, Drew, which I'm going to have this conversation with them very soon.
1:02:10🔗AdamIt's going to sound just alien that you would sit in a crowded theater and watch pornography.
1:02:15🔗DrewI can imagine kids that age like grabbing their sides and laughing until they bust a gut. It would sound the funniest thing of all time to them.
1:02:22🔗AdamIf I would have said to somebody in that theater, Hey listen, and I missed this by a few years.
1:02:29🔗AdamIf I would have said, no, if I would have said, Listen, you see this pornography? Yeah. You can have it so that it's at your home and you could stop it and you could rewind it and you could fast forward it and you could freeze frame it. You could do all that. What? How much? It would be like 200 bucks a whack easily, easily. Could have been a billionaire if I could have bottled that technology and brought it home in 1978. All right. Well, anyway, the pussy cat. They had the big marquee and it would be three or four movies playing and you'd be walking down the street, it would be the same theater. You drive past, it would be the same movie in there for six months.
1:03:13🔗AdamThey were bad 70s porno movies, shot on film.
1:03:18🔗DrewIt's like the stuff that Boogie Nights was made about.
1:03:21🔗AdamYeah. You'd have to endure the whole movie. You'd be sitting there and you'd be watching the credits and what's upcoming features and all that horrible dialogue and guy driving his car down some street. They're all filmed where I grew up essentially. So I would recognize some of the street was like me watching Adam 12. They shot all that stuff in the valley. Yeah. Hey, that's the 118. Hey, my buddy Mark lives on that street. Hey, that's my buddy Mark's mom. Hey, you're banging my buddy Mark. It was good times. Jesse? Yes. You're 18? Yes. You depressed?
1:04:00🔗CallerNo. I'm just a little sick right now.
1:04:06🔗DrewYou know, I was thinking about this today. You know, when I see, every time I go to my office now, I see the usual, you know, mid-fall allergies, sinusitis, bronchitis, upper respiratory infections.
1:04:41🔗CallerLike, well, I overheard it that if you swallow semen, it's like, it's not bad and it's okay. That's something about it having vitamins in it. I don't know.
1:04:51🔗DrewIt's not good for you. I mean, it's not going to enhance your health, okay? There's no special quality to it that's going to be good for you.
1:04:58🔗DrewIt should be, but it isn't. And there is a potential of getting sexually transmitted diseases that way, the particular viral STDs. So there are some reasons not to, but...
1:05:47🔗AdamYou never ordered like a side of semen when you got a plate of semen? Well, you get on the side. Some places have ranch, others have semen. You get like a Reuben sandwich. You want some people like a fries. Jesse, you'll be okay.
1:06:20🔗AdamShe's 18, isn't she? 18. Oh. Yeah, that's different. You should be doing anal by now. No. All right, Jesse, let's take care of that. And are you using protection? What kind of birth control are you on? Condoms.
1:06:32🔗AdamWell, you got a boyfriend, you get on the pill, okay?
1:06:35🔗DrewYou also get that emergency contraceptor, keep it around in case the condom breaks or falls off.
1:06:39🔗AdamThere you go. Don't make me give my speech about not having to swallow it, but just having to receive it and transport it.
1:06:48🔗DrewVehicle for transport, receptacle for transport.
1:06:50🔗AdamWell, I look at my semen as garbage, which is I want to drag it out in front of the balls and have him pick it up once a week. But whether they dump it into my neighbor's yard or throw it in a landfill or burn it, I don't care. Just pick it up.
1:07:03🔗AdamMove it on out. That's all I care about. I mean, just as long as they don't spit it into the ceiling fan or something, which has happened on way more than one occasion, Drew. Joe?
1:08:28🔗CallerOkay. I heard it from my friend. Okay, there's this couple and there's a guy and there's a girl and they're married and the guy is a virgin and so the guy doesn't know how to have sex, right? And so he goes to his dad and he goes, Hey, dad, I don't know how to have sex. And so dad goes, All right, it's okay, son. Here, take this walkie-talkie and I'll lead you to the whole thing. And then he goes, All right. And so he takes the walkie-talkie and takes his now wife to a hotel room. And they're like all in the hotel and everything and then he goes, Dad, what do I do? And then dad goes, Okay, just set the mood. And he goes, Okay. And he sets the mood and he like dooms the lights and I'm not done.
1:09:09🔗AdamNo, no, keep going. You're doing good.
1:09:10🔗CallerAnd he dooms the lights and then he puts on music and everything and then he goes, Dad, what do I do? And then he goes, All right, son, now just put her on the bed somehow. He goes, All right, dad. And he gets her on the bed.
1:09:27🔗CallerOK. And then he goes, he puts her on the bed. And he goes, Dad, what do I do? And the dad goes, All right, just take off all her clothes. And then he does. And then he goes, Dad, what do I do? Start kissing her and rubbing her in places. And then he goes, All right. And he does it. And then he goes, Dad, what do I do now? He goes, the dad goes, you know that thing that you and me both have? And the son goes, Yeah?
1:10:08🔗AdamWell, no. Fundamentally, here's the problem. When you know you're getting near the punch line, because it's been 20, 25 minutes now, and the walkie-talkie is a little bit of a stretch, and when he says, You know that thing that you and I both have? All people with any sense of humor go right to the walkie-talkie at that point. So even you, Drew, went to the walkie-talkie because of the wording.
1:10:32🔗AdamThe wording is a little weak at the end.
1:10:35🔗DrewSo you got to make it more mysterious. Yes.
1:10:40🔗AdamEverybody with an IQ went right to the walkie-talkie. You always try to figure out the punch line if it's a joke you haven't heard as you go, because there's a sort of a riddle element to it. And the thing we both have, you go to the walkie-talkie. All right. We're going to take ourselves a little break. We'll be back to explain more comedy to you after this. Hey, y'all, it's Loveline. I'm Adam Corolla. It's Dr. Drew. You know, something I notice as an adult.
1:12:03🔗AdamI don't know if you guys have ever experienced this, but I live alone, I sleep alone, and it's hard to blame smells on other people when you live alone.
1:12:14🔗AdamI'll get up in the morning after a good eight hours, head into the next room, go do something, and then come back into the bedroom and give that.
1:12:32🔗AdamLittle bad breath, little BO. What's going on in here? I'd love to blame it on some nationality or some other being, but I realize, no, I just spent the last eight hours funking up the room and now I left and now I'm back and it's me. It's definitely me.
1:12:54🔗AdamIt's not too bad, but it's definitely a little, hey, what's this? And I don't know what that is, Drew. I think it may be a little gas. I should sleep the windows open or something. I turned the, actually the fan is on. Could be worse.
1:13:08🔗DrewYou can wash your sheets once in a while.
1:13:13🔗AdamThey come off of the mat. That's not part of the mattress then, right? Oh, that's right, because the mattress was different when I got it. Yeah. You ever go into a guy's room that has been like drinking all night and passed out? Like you ever go roust one of your buddies? You don't do that, Drew.
1:13:32🔗DrewI know exactly what you're talking about.
1:13:34🔗AdamMan, I mean, I could remember going over to my buddies, like going over to Weez's house on Sunday, like one in the afternoon. And he was still in bed because, you know, he'd been, you know, banging his parents. They're like, yeah, he's in his room. Go get him up, you know. Stayed up smoking weed and drinking until three in the morning. And it's a small room. And the space heater's on. Now, here's the real killer. During the winter, you turn that space heater on, but you don't shut it off. So by noon the next day, it's 97 degrees in the room, but you're so loaded and passed out. And you've been belching up that alcohol and blowing gas all night. It's a little room, and you just open the door, and that big wave of hot stink comes out. And the person has no idea, because they're just living in it. Yeah, that's living, brother. Oops, oh, I don't know what I did.
1:14:22🔗DrewI'm up on four. Put a hole, quit four again. Now, quick, quick, quick.
1:14:30🔗How you doing? I want to know about anthrax. I hear about it in the news. I want to know what the symptoms are and what exactly does it do to your system.
1:14:39🔗AdamWhat's your name in that? How old are you?
1:14:45🔗DrewBasically, it's hard thing to describe unless you have sort of medical training, but it overwhelms your system. You get a tremendous pneumonia. It actually gets into your gut, needs through the wall of the gut. Once it gets established, no amount of treatment really does much.
1:15:01🔗I was told that the spores get into your lungs, clog up the pores and it grows and then it explodes and it fills your lungs with fluid.
1:15:08🔗DrewThat's called pneumonia. That's called pneumonia. It's just an overwhelming pneumonia.
1:15:13🔗AdamWell, let's talk about this for one second because I'm sure people have a lot of questions about this. And I'm a layman, so I'll just approach it from that standpoint. There's different types of anthrax, right?
1:15:51🔗AdamBut it's more how fine it is, right? I mean, if it's in a powdered form, it would be much easier to inhale.
1:15:58🔗DrewThe powder is designed to be inhaled. That's why they put in powder.
1:16:01🔗AdamRight. So I mean, yes, it's the same. It's like drugs. It's like you can snort heroin, or you can shoot it, or you can smoke it. It's the same drug. But you couldn't shoot the stuff you were supposed to snort unless you made it into a different form.
1:16:29🔗AdamOkay. But again, I'm a layman, and I think everyone who's listening is. We just want to clarify this stuff, because they do make it seem as if there's three different. And they even talk about some forms being more dangerous than others, meaning the stuff that you inhale could be worse than the stuff that you...
1:17:01🔗AdamObviously, that could be inhaled, but it would be more apt to get it through your skin?
1:17:05🔗DrewThey're clearly trying... All you gotta do is, you know, when you open the letter, pow, it's in the air. Now you have a couple people inhale it. Right. The problem is, you don't know you've inhaled it. It's doing its work before you really realize you're getting sick.
1:17:57🔗AdamBecause when they say it enters through a cut in your hand, you're thinking, okay, I have no visible cut on my hand. I'm safe. But you're saying it will get in under your fingernail and absorb that way anyway. Okay. So that just gets in through touching it. Although, Drew is pretty paranoid, so you never know. He could be lying. They're exaggerating a little bit.
1:18:16🔗DrewWe have very little experience with this organism in this country. So this is how we understand it.
1:18:22🔗AdamSo you got this stuff. You can inhale it. You can have it enter through your skin. Then there's the kind that enters. Is there a third way?
1:18:34🔗DrewThe stuff you're coughing up and stuff eventually gets down into your gut now. So you swallow some of that, and it keeps going.
1:18:40🔗AdamBut I'm guessing if you put some on your tongue, you'd get it too, right?
1:18:45🔗DrewI don't know that. I'm guessing you're right, but I don't know how that would work. I've never seen that kind of thing described.
1:18:52🔗AdamOkay. And then as far as these medicines to counteract this stuff, it's not going to do anything if you're on it and you don't get it. I mean, what I'm saying is those people that think they're going to take it and it's going to make them not get it, not get it, are incorrect.
1:19:13🔗AdamYou would take it only after you got it. So hoarding this stuff is kind of ridiculous.
1:19:20🔗DrewBut I don't want to speak out of turn relative to the public health community, but here's, I think, what people's rationale is for hoarding Cipro.
1:19:35🔗DrewNot, not I plan to take it, not I'm going to treat myself. It's just, right, jeez, if there's a shortage, you know, I'm also going to have water and a generator.
1:19:42🔗DrewAnd that's, I think, the mentality that's taking this. The problem would be, is if people start taking the Cipro, we're going to have a real serious public health problem with other bacteria becoming terribly resistive to this very important medication.
1:20:23🔗AdamAnd so taking it in advance is not going to stop anything. Now this thing takes a while. You could get this infected with anthrax and not feel any effects for a number of weeks.
1:21:10🔗AdamThat's what I mean. So it's all inhaled.
1:21:11🔗DrewThe inhaled one is the problem. Yeah, that's the problem.
1:21:13🔗AdamAll right. And so then what should somebody do? I mean, now what about the people that are on the antibiotic who have tested negative for it and they're taking it as a precaution?
1:21:26🔗DrewThey probably, well, or what about the people that carry the bacteria, like in their nose, they're swabbed it out, but they don't have evidence of infection yet. I think they'd probably keep those people on 60 days, I suspect.
1:21:36🔗AdamNow, if I was exposed to it, and then I got tested immediately and had no sign of it, why should I take this?
1:21:46🔗DrewYou shouldn't. If you're clear, free and clear, free and clear, then that's it.
1:21:49🔗AdamAnd how do they test for it? They take some blood?
1:21:56🔗DrewBut, you know, we're just spending a lot of time on anthrax, but anthrax is small potatoes compared to what I think we're going to see in the not too distant future, which is smallpox.
1:22:12🔗AdamThat kind of logic doesn't make sense to me.
1:22:14🔗DrewYou don't want to confuse it with bigpox.
1:22:15🔗AdamDrew, you really know how to sell it. This is nothing compared. This is dwarfed by smallpox. So you think that's worse. Why is that worse?
1:22:28🔗DrewThat is no treatment. It's extremely contagious. They're talking about these guys infecting themselves and then just walking through malls and infecting thousands of people. There's no treatment. There's a vaccine, but not enough vaccine to cover anything. The military is controlling the vaccine.
1:22:45🔗AdamWell, the vaccine, you'd want to... Would you have to be vaccinated before you got it? So once you get it, that's it?
1:22:53🔗DrewWell, I've never seen this. I've seen some evidence to suggest that it's early that the vaccine may have some effect in fighting it. Maybe.
1:23:01🔗AdamNow, here's the thing that's crazy about smallpox is we had it eliminated, but we kept it alive. It's bizarre. I mean, it's really right out of some sort of...
1:23:15🔗AdamRight, right. When I was going to go... I was going back even further than that, but crazy science fiction to think that we... This thing killed millions and millions of people throughout history, right? And what was it? Up until the turn of the century pretty much and even a little beyond, right? And then we got it under control, and we eliminated it, but we kept it. We kept it alive. And it's like, wasn't it in some basement in Russia or something? I mean, what does that mean? We had the actual virus, and it was only in one place.
1:23:48🔗DrewIt's like Jurassic Park, some little thing left behind.
1:23:51🔗AdamYeah, and the Russians had it, and we must have had one too, right? And now how do people then get the Russians? I mean, how did they get it? Don't know. But there was a point in time, maybe in the 60s or 70s, where we could have wiped it off the face of the earth, but we couldn't, we didn't want to make it extinct, in other words.
1:24:14🔗AdamMaybe it'll come back to haunt us. Okay, we'll take a little break. Geez, I don't know, lightning round? Huh? True doesn't like. What do you think? No? Ants yawning.
1:24:24🔗DrewI don't have to talk about antarctic spawn blocks.
1:24:30🔗AdamAlright, hey, no skin off my ass, kitty. Save me some syllables. We'll be back. Hey, everybody. Oh, that's my theme song. Hey, jacket hung over the shoulder. Remember with the one finger holding up?
1:25:38🔗AdamAs I say to the bartender, give me the usual, and he goes, I don't know who you are, man. All right. Let's talk to Michael as he knows the history of Smallpox. Michael.
1:25:58🔗CallerYeah. What they did in Russia is they kept it there for bioweapons research for a little while, and now they still have in that lab. It's actually one of the worst strains there is, because it was designed for weaponizing.
1:26:14🔗CallerSo, now it's a shame the lab is poorly guarded and it's just run down.
1:26:20🔗AdamI got to imagine with our, you know, recent communications and almost alliance with that part of the world, and that we're aware that they have things like this, acutely aware of it, the powers that be, that we wouldn't be in some contact with them and helping them beef up security a little bit.
1:26:42🔗DrewYeah, the theory is that the Russian Mafia got a hold of it.
1:26:44🔗CallerYeah, that's how we get it. The Russian Mafia can get a hold of it from a factory, from the lab and just sell it to the highest bidder.
1:27:32🔗AdamMichael, I don't want to bust your chance, but you essentially called and told me what we'd talked about before we went to break, which is the Russians have this smallpox.
1:27:41🔗DrewWhat I like to know is that this is something I don't hear in the media enough is what should people actually do to prepare? I think it's really unfair to tell people, hey, there's this awful thing coming. Enjoy.
1:27:53🔗DrewWell, that's the question. I think there should be some suggestions offered. Do you have anything, Michael? Oh, boy. I don't know what that means.
1:28:01🔗AdamHe's in charge of the CDC, by the way, if Michael is.
1:28:06🔗CallerPeople need to be vigilant. People in the hospitals need to watch for bizarre disease patterns. And one other common sign is, in a pharmacy, somebody might notice that all the cold medicines are flying off the shelf. And from this, people can do, there's, have you heard of the rapid flu test?
1:29:04🔗AdamDrew, you're trying to get answers from young Michael. We didn't have any answers, but I don't think there are any answers.
1:29:10🔗DrewI would hope that somebody would think through a sort of preparedness recommendation for you people, because there's always stuff to be done.
1:29:17🔗AdamWell, but in terms of precautionary stuff, what would it be?
1:29:24🔗DrewYou know, what's going to happen? For instance, people need to feel like they're in control of their destiny a little bit.
1:29:30🔗AdamI like the feeling of just flying through outer space drunk at a million miles an hour, and having zero control of my destiny.
1:29:37🔗DrewNone of us are surprised by that. But just the idea that if they're going to be quarantined, how do you prepare for that? Do you need a month worth of food in your house, if your household is going to be quarantined? How do you prepare for this? Do you have a room set aside?
1:29:49🔗AdamIf there's a smallpox outbreak, and you're told, hey, don't go to the mall, don't go to the market, don't go to places that are populated, stay in your home, well, how long would you have to stay in your home?
1:30:03🔗AdamBut see, here's the problem. I think quite frankly, and I know Drew's angry at that. Well, it's really fear that's turned to anger. It's urine that's turned to ass, is what it is with Drew. But I don't think there's an answer. See, when the answer is too scary and unsatisfactory, and it's like stay in your house for an indefinite period of time, that's not an answer. You know what I mean? It's like when people say to you, how is it that I make sure I don't get AIDS? And you say, don't have sex. That's not really an answer.
1:30:36🔗DrewBut that is an answer that you can at least work with. I think it's far more unacceptable to say, hey, don't prepare.
1:30:42🔗AdamBut look at this country and look at people's mentality and everybody doesn't have your education or your IQ. We're all far smarter than you are. No, if you say to the average John Q public, hey, listen, you may have to hold up in your house for six months, everything would fly off the shelves immediately. Do you see what I'm saying? They cannot do that responsibly. And they don't have an answer. So they're not going to give one. And the answer is too tough, so forget it. That's what's going on. Okay, thank you. Jean?
1:31:33🔗CallerI have a bladder problem. I just, it's really embarrassing. I mean, I'm only 21, and I'm in college, and I'll be talking with a professor, or I'll be at the grocery store in line, and just all of a sudden have an uncontrollable release, you know.
1:32:05🔗DrewOof. Yeah, you got to do your Kegel exercises, I guess. Boy.
1:32:08🔗AdamWell, that's bad times. And let me tell you something. It's dripping down your leg now, but when you're in your 40s, it's going to be knocking people over. I mean, they'll just be flying out of you.
1:32:36🔗DrewJean, you need to get this checked out. I'm dead serious about this. I mean, even things like MS can present like this. I don't want to scare you, but this is not something that's normal for a 21-year-old.
1:33:12🔗AdamAll right. We can smell you from here. That's why I was asking. No, no, go get that checked out. Yeah, see, listen, parents, if you name your kid a name and there's a song with that name in it, it's incumbent on you to- Teach them the song. Yeah. Sometimes I hear a kid with a name and there's a song and they don't know the name. They don't know the song.
1:34:52🔗AdamAll right, everybody, that's the week. Thanks for tuning in. I want to thank Damian for doing a great job on the phones all week long. I want to thank Tara. Tara, don't call me Tara. Now, for doing a great job on the phones and the coffee and everything else around here. Lauren, is she standing up back there? No. Jump up, Lauren. Let's see if I can see her head.
1:35:19🔗AdamI see. I want to thank producer Ann for just doing a spectacular job. I mean, Lit, Ozzy Osbourne, Smash Mouth. Great week. Tony Hawk coming up next week. Travis next week. Just booking some world-class guests on the show. A new starter. And I want to thank engineer Anderson for sliding in potentiometers. And putting in wonderful drops like that. So until next time, this is Adam Corolla for Dr. Drew saying, Mahalo.
1:35:47🔗CallerNo, it's just like, you guys seem like teenagers.
