1:14🔗VoiceoverHey, everybody, it's Loveline, I'm Adam Carolla, that's Dr. Drew, Dr. Drew, board certified physician, addiction medicine specialist, phone number, 1-800-LOVE-191. I'm coming from Las Vegas tonight, Drew.
1:29🔗DrewYeah, and I was just thinking, I didn't yawn when you started talking, then I thought about it and then I yawned. So it is your voice after all.
1:35🔗AdamYeah, but I think it's more, it's your presence.
1:39🔗DrewIt is, it's that, yeah, it's that essence, the presence.
1:42🔗AdamI'll tell you, something you don't think about when you're trying to find your way through Vegas is every goddamn street has a hotel name to it.
1:52🔗DrewYes, well, that's sort of that direction anyway, that sort of north south direction.
1:56🔗AdamRight, so what happens is, is I'm trying to find the studio and people go, go down to Sahara, turn right on Tropicana, and go left on Flamingo. And so you're driving, you go, okay, I got it. And you're driving and you come up on Flamingo. And you're going, wait a minute, am I going away? I should probably go to, is it Tropicana? Are we on Caesar's Palace Road? When you name everything after sort of, everything becomes a subset of one big subject, it gets really confusing.
2:27🔗DrewHere are the two, these are the three that I was confused. Tell me if this isn't right. Sahara, Riviera, Flamingo. Those are the three, that's all the same thing to me.
2:37🔗AdamRight. It's as if you named every street after a football team. And you go, go up to Rams Way and go right on the New Orleans Saints, and go straight through the Dallas Cowboys, and you're driving passing streets named after football teams, and you're getting confused.
2:53🔗DrewAll you get is football team after a while.
2:56🔗AdamRight. That's how it goes down in your brain.
4:00🔗Turkey sat on the backyard fence on Thanksgiving Day. As he sat on the backyard fence, this is what he'd say, oh, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, I don't like Thanksgiving Day. Hey, hey, hey, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, I would like to run away.
4:55🔗AdamDrew, do you really have an article in front of you on the prolong negative effects of anal sex?
5:00🔗DrewNo, but I thought of our callers when I read this article with the headline, An Artificial Sphincter Limits Fecal Incontinence. I thought, well, they can just go right ahead and enjoy themselves now. They have an artificial sphincter and it's quite a device.
5:14🔗AdamThey've come out. What would be the doctor's name who invented that? Because it's always funny.
5:35🔗AdamOr Dr. Dukeman or something like that. But it's still pretty solid. Yeah.
5:39🔗DrewObviously, you can tear and you can get infections and you can get fistulas and abscesses and incontinence later. But it's not as though... I imagine we'll see more of this in the years to come because this has been a behavior that's become a little more common in recent years.
5:53🔗AdamLet me ask you this, Drew. You say incontinence. You say it as if this muscle should or this area should go unmolested your whole life. But you have a bowel movement or two every day. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah. It's getting quite a workout during those. I mean, if you take the circumference of the average duke...
6:17🔗DrewYou're looking at your penis now. Your penis. Your penis.
6:20🔗AdamThat is true. I'm looking at my penis. But when you compare it to the circumference of the average penis, I would say it's pretty close. Now, it's not going in and out.
6:29🔗DrewAnd also, the stool is kind of soft, and it's your sphincter that's forming the size, basically.
6:58🔗No, I don't. I only do it because he likes it.
7:03🔗DrewCan you add it? Wait a minute. Is there anything that a man does that's equivalent to that under any circumstances just for making a woman happy?
7:11🔗AdamNo. Well, going to weddings and things like that.
7:13🔗DrewTalking about certain things, yeah, I guess. But just think of the difference, huh?
7:17🔗AdamHeather, tell him you spoke to your dad, and he was pretty upset about the whole thing. Can you do that? Oh, I can do that. Is your dad alive and out of prison?
7:28🔗CallerMy dad's never been in prison, but yes.
7:31🔗DrewAre you having any problems with the stool incontinence or anything like that?
7:34🔗CallerNo, I was just wondering, because I do work in a nursing home.
7:38🔗DrewYeah, you see, you know what I'm talking about, right?
7:40🔗CallerAnd I'm like, well, you know, there's that rectal.
8:15🔗AdamWell, part of it is you not liking it that makes us like it.
8:21🔗DrewI think it's an aggressive impulse and I think it's, you know, if their partner likes it, it's one thing, but otherwise it's kind of an aggressive impulse and it's kind of, I really think on some level they're turned on by sort of hurting you with their penis.
8:30🔗CallerWell, I told him to stop and he's like, it's okay, you can handle the pain.
10:21🔗Yeah, and I've had heavy cramping, and I just want to know if this was normal.
10:27🔗DrewYes, it is, but you have to be careful. Sometimes it can be a sign of infection, too. So you might want to give your doctor a call tomorrow. You don't have to rush, worry about it tonight. But some bleeding is normal, some cramping is normal, yes.
11:05🔗AdamThe IUD, beside the condom, is the only thing you can use that doesn't screw with your hormones, right?
11:12🔗DrewThat's basically true. I think that's what I'm trying to think of as anything else. You know, there's a new vaginal ring contraceptive just came out. You can wear it for like three weeks at a time. That's going to be good. But again, that's systemic hormones again.
11:23🔗AdamYeah. I guess you could do that damn thing. What the hell is that thing called?
12:13🔗It was kind of like a yellowish bump. It wasn't on the penis itself. It was more on the scrotum, I guess you'd call it.
12:22🔗DrewA yellowish bump on your scrotum. All right.
12:24🔗It was, and more started to appear. So I went to the doctor. It was kind of a teaching clinic at the time. And they had examined me and told me that it was personal hygiene that I needed to keep myself cleaner. Okay.
12:49🔗Because they, since then, I have really kept up on, you know, what they had told me to do. They haven't gone away. They kind of suppressed for a while, but they come back larger. And a couple of them have busted open.
13:59🔗DrewAll right, well, that's normal. That has nothing to do with your zits on your, you're 22, Bill. Yeah, I feel like I'm talking to a nine-year-old.
14:06🔗CallerWell, I didn't know. I mean, they haven't gone away, I didn't.
14:36🔗DrewI can't quite picture what's going on here, but I'm clear that a dermatologist or another doctor needs to take a look at this. It does not sound like an STD, however.
14:47🔗DrewYou can get these spongy little knots. It can make your nuts look kind of like a moonscape that are normal. And then if he has zits on top of that, he doesn't know what he's looking at.
14:57🔗AdamI had the Sea of Tranquility on my belly the other night. Would that be related to this?
15:14🔗I think I may be developing an eating disorder. And like, you know, I don't think I do, but I think like the logical part of me is kind of like noticing some things that maybe aren't normal, but I don't know because it's not like I talk about this to people.
15:34🔗DrewYou're going to have to stop talking in riddles and code and put it out there for us.
15:42🔗Okay, I, when my boyfriend and I broke up, this was like my first serious boyfriend during high school. We broke up and I was just really depressed. It was this horrible breakup. It really just shattered me. And I just totally took the blame on myself. And I thought maybe if I was, you know, if I did something different, he wouldn't have done what he did or whatever.
16:06🔗DrewYou know what, you're going to have to tell us what's happening right now.
16:08🔗AdamWell, Drew, I'm going to go number two, all right?
17:23🔗DrewIt's light. It's thin, but she's only lost about four pounds. She keeps herself on a very restricted diet, and she has an impulse to purge, and she has a distorted body image. That's it. That's the eating disorder. It's going to get worse, Abby. You need to deal with this. When you have stressors, when you have things that happen in your life, you've found that they get worse still, and that's the way these things work. So really, the question is here, do you or do you not have it? Yes, you do. Do you or do you not need treatment? Absolutely, you need to look into this. These can be very serious.
17:51🔗CallerI don't know what to do. I noticed it, and then I...
17:55🔗DrewJust, you know what you need. You need just... Abby, I suspect you just need a therapist. You need somebody, a mental health professional, just to watch you and work with you. You don't have to go in a hospital. You don't have to panic. You just need somebody to pay attention. Now, the Pina Gallery in the production room here keeps asking about this shrine you made.
18:12🔗CallerYeah. Oh my gosh. This makes me feel like a complete nutcase. Like, I used to... The first thing I noticed about girls is their body and like how... Like their weight or whatever. And I used to like go through magazines and like tear out pictures of like super thin models of like their bones sticking out of their shoulders and stuff.
18:36🔗CallerI think it's like so beautiful. And I made like a poster of like the skinny, demented looking girls. And I like whenever I felt like eating that piece of chocolate, I'd just look at it and I'd be like, no.
20:07🔗AdamYeah, on an average of three times a week, I say something obvious. I have a brain fart. I go, you know, what is that called? Or the thing that goes in the horse's mouth, and you go, I don't know.
20:18🔗DrewAll right, listen, I don't want to get...
20:21🔗DrewMaybe. I don't want you to be attacking me for what I'm about to say. You have us so goddamn intimidated around here, I don't want to say anything wrong, because then you'll start abusing me for not knowing anything, so I just shut off and say, I don't know. I go to the safe zone, which is, I don't know, whatever, you answer, smart guy.
20:37🔗DrewNo, no, it doesn't, because then you just sit and perseverate about what you want to think about, and see, rather than getting onto me and what I don't know. So you see, you discourage me from participating with you.
20:46🔗AdamMontage and decoupage. It's exactly two things that were in my head, by the way.
21:26🔗DrewThere are endless possibilities here. I think one of the ways to protect yourself is to select your partners carefully, know them well, take your time getting to know them, and then wear latex gloves and condoms when you touch your partner.
21:37🔗I mean, by latex gloves, don't you think that's going to be like over-portable?
21:50🔗DrewIf there were a significant source of transmission of anything, there would be a lot of stuff being transmitted.
21:53🔗AdamWell, what are you doing, Martin? Well, this is the thing.
21:56🔗It's like I hooked up with this prostitute. All right.
22:01🔗DrewWell, already, you're putting yourself in a risky situation.
22:04🔗I made sure that I wasn't going to do too much. But I figured one of the safest things I could do was fingers, since I didn't have any cuts on my fingers. But then I was reading on the Internet, even if you have hangnails.
22:15🔗DrewBy the way, what's the risk you're going to offend her if you put on a glove or something too? I mean, if you want to protect yourself.
22:21🔗AdamWho wants to put a glove on a finger of a prostitute?
23:54🔗AdamI told him, listen, going down on a prostitute is like renting a car, taking it to the car wash and returning it. Nothing in it for you. That's just throwing money into the wind, buddy. Jesus Christ. And could you imagine, think about this, Drew.
24:14🔗AdamYou tell me if there's a scenario that exists where a young female solicits a male prostitute just to give him a hummer. Do you know what I'm saying?
24:26🔗DrewBut I could imagine that, though. That seems more like what a woman would be.
24:38🔗AdamAll right. All right. I'll do about 20 minutes on collages when we come back. What do you say there, Drew?
24:43🔗DrewDecoupage, really, would you? What the hell is decoupage?
24:47🔗AdamDecoupage is when you take out, you cut out pictures and you stick them on a piece of cardboard. And decoupage is like where you take little pieces of colored Kleenex or something and stick it to a lampshade.
25:15🔗AdamAll right. Bye. I'm Adam, that's Dr. Drew. I'm in Las Vegas tonight. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Drew is home side. Manning the microphone, Drew. You all right there?
26:04🔗DrewI'm good. How are you? You're in Vegas. When are you coming back?
26:41🔗CallerYeah, I was wondering, since my wife been pregnant, she's in her sixth month right now. Ever since she's been pregnant, after we had sex, she has bad contractions.
26:53🔗DrewHave you talked to her, have you talked to obstetrician about this?
26:57🔗CallerWell, we did talk to our regular doctor, but he didn't really understand what was going on. She also gets real bad swelling, like right behind the knees, and she has about 20 minutes or so after sex, she had a hard time walking. She can't even get up and walk.
27:15🔗AdamYou're really doing a job on her, Patrick.
27:36🔗DrewWell, you got to talk to the obstetrician. You should not be having sex until you talk to the obstetrician. I'm sorry. But you want to induce abortion? This is what it may possibly be doing it. You're endangering the kids' brain. Well, you're endangering this pregnancy. Some people start to get problems in this third trimester. Yeah, if there's no problem, people can go on having sex. But you're starting to have premature labor. These may be just these Braxton-Hicks contractions, which are nothing, but you need that evaluated. I don't know what's going on with this knee situation.
28:04🔗AdamPatrick, you tell her Drew said she was on BJ detail until she hatched that kid.
28:17🔗AdamHe's told me all kinds of horror stories. You know what I like about guys?
28:20🔗DrewWas that in prison or was that... I'm sorry.
28:23🔗AdamGuys are like, yeah, I've been banging my wife and she's got some hemorrhaging, and she can't walk too good, and she goes into contractions. And I'll tell you, she barely can get off the bed and get me a cold one after I'm done with her. She's six months pregnant, and I've been going at her pretty good for the last few months. Talked to a doctor. It never occurred to me. What if he says I can't bang her anymore?
28:54🔗DrewYeah. I think that's why they avoid it, thankfully. Brittany, 18.
29:01🔗Okay. I was in a car accident a week ago today, and I wasn't hurt. Nobody else was hurt. But the night after, Thanksgiving night, I had a really bad, bad chest pain. It was like the worst physical pain I've ever felt.
29:19🔗DrewWas it sharp, like when you took a deep breath, you felt like somebody's stabbing you?
29:22🔗I don't know. It was... I don't really remember. It was just...
29:27🔗DrewWorst pain I ever had. I can't really remember it. But it was the worst pain I ever had.
29:33🔗Well, no. I mean, like, you know the feeling you get when you have to throw up and it gets really bad and it's creeping up to your throat? It was like that. Only it was stuck in my chest and I couldn't throw up and I couldn't stand up and I couldn't sit down and it hurt to lay down. And my mom said that it was just bruised from where my seatbelt was and my grandma said it was a panic attack. I couldn't breathe, hurt to breathe.
29:58🔗DrewNo, no, no, no, no. That's not a panic attack. You may have been panicking in response to how you were feeling.
30:05🔗DrewNo, you need to have that. Are you still feeling bad?
30:08🔗Well, today it came back for a few minutes in my chest and my back, my lower right back has been hurting a lot today. I can't bend over. I have to squat down.
30:18🔗DrewThat's probably playing the odds. It is probably a back problem and then you get what's called a costochondritis as a secondary phenomenon where the muscles and the ribs constrict and spasm. Usually, though, that hurts to move or take a deep breath. You really get the pain then. The concern I have is that there are kinds of internal injuries you can get too that can present like that. If anything ruptures into your plural space, the space between the lung and the chest wall, it can cause tremendous irritation like bleeding. And it is something that needs to be looked at.
30:49🔗Well, I'm supposed to go to the doctor next week.
30:52🔗As soon as they could get me in. I've tried calling twice.
30:55🔗DrewWell, you may have to go to the emergency room then. This is something I wouldn't screw around with. The fact that it's getting better is good and all. That's fine. But I don't know. I can't tell you it's not something to be really worried about.
31:05🔗It was, I was on the highway going to my fiance's house. And it was just a chain reaction. There was the first car slammed on his brakes. And then another car slammed on his brakes. And then I slammed on my brakes.
31:32🔗DrewYeah. There's something called, Brittany, deceleration injuries. When you come up against an airbag or a seatbelt, your body stops, but your organs keep moving forward. And stuff can tear and rip and get bleeding. It can be a big mess. And it's not something to screw around with, frankly.
31:47🔗Well, I mean, I didn't feel hurt at the time of the accident.
31:50🔗DrewBrittany, Brittany, Brittany, please. Just on a possibility that something ripped, an artery or vessel tore and filled the plural space of blood, and that's what was hurting, that's a real possibility. And that's something that needs to be dealt with.
32:06🔗AdamAnd listen, don't get married at 18. You're going to give your dad a heart attack.
32:11🔗AdamJesus Christ. And you know, these are these accidents, by the way, Drew, where you hear these stories. I think this may have happened to, like, Sam Kinison, although this was a much worse accident.
32:22🔗DrewWhere they get up and walk out and look at the scene and then fall over.
32:28🔗AdamRight, right, right. They get in this bad accident. They think they're fine. There's no blood or anything. They're walking around. Meanwhile, they're a aortas torn off their heart, right?
32:36🔗DrewThat's exactly what happens. There are vessels inside that can rip, and it can be a real, real serious problem. There you go. Shane 27.
32:52🔗Yeah, it's a fear of germs. And this is something that started off real innocent. I mean, she'd be have, she would have baby wipes in the car and wipe her hands whenever she get in the car.
33:02🔗DrewWait a minute. Who diagnosed her with this?
33:13🔗Because I say, what the hell is that when you first said it?
33:17🔗DrewBut here's my concern. What you're about to describe is somebody that developing a progressive, either obsessive compulsive problem where they're constantly washing everything obsessively or some sort of thought problem where they're constantly believe that they're infected.
33:37🔗DrewDoes she have anything else besides this preoccupation with germs?
33:40🔗CallerNo. I mean, this is, well, she had some breathing problems a while ago that has nothing to do with it. We've noticed this. It has been progressive throughout the years. And I'm afraid that it's going to get worse to where it's going to affect our marriage really bad.
33:54🔗DrewWell, now, what are her breathing problems?
33:56🔗CallerShe had hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Wow.
33:59🔗DrewI mean, that's a serious deal. I mean, she must have been on prednisone for a long time.
34:02🔗CallerYeah. Well, she wasn't on it that much, but, you know, when I took her to the hospital with her, her O2 stats was in the 70s.
34:10🔗DrewThat's an unusual and serious deal. Adam, it's like an allergic reaction in your lungs, where it fills up with fluid.
34:26🔗CallerNothing right now. She's real sensitive to medication. I mean, we see some of the side effects on some of this stuff and she'd be worse off if she took it. Yeah.
34:34🔗DrewI mean, with her medicines for the hypersensitivity process.
34:38🔗CallerRight. I mean, she's not taking... She has... her last thing with her breathing was over a year ago. And the doctor... We were... I'm a college student right now and we don't have that much income. She has been working since...
34:52🔗DrewYeah, but you have student health services that should be able to see her too, right?
34:58🔗CallerAnd mental... there's like not a mental... but counseling. They got some counseling.
35:02🔗DrewWell, you need... she needs to see... she needs a formal diagnosis because there's a possibility there's an organic component to this. This may have something... this could in some way be related to this pulmonary process she has.
36:08🔗AdamI got the fancy ranch-flavored snack mix.
36:14🔗DrewIs that the one with the mustard-flavored rye crisps?
36:16🔗AdamYeah. Oh, good times. Let me ask this, everybody. And Drew, you're old enough to remember. When did the word fancy go so terribly south? When did it just start to stand for S? Do you know what I mean? I think at a certain point in our history, fancy actually meant fancy. And now it's a euphemism for pure S.
36:38🔗DrewIn the 60s, the whole idea of party industry, or party things, party products, that's when fancy became crappy.
36:49🔗AdamI see the word fancy on anything and I start running now. It just means it's S. I don't know, it's like the way you cover up for a crappy product. But Drew, you want just a little insight to my mind?
37:06🔗DrewDid you make the captain come out of the cockpit?
37:09🔗AdamNo, but look, here's the deal. I love nuts. I love nuts, I love peanuts, and you can't eat them on the goddamn plane anymore because there's a handful of pussies who say they're going to go into shock if they absorb some peanut dust.
37:21🔗DrewAnd you know what? There is good evidence that nuts are good for you. I mean, seriously good for you. Now, how about all that processed chemical crap that are in the fancy mixes?
37:29🔗AdamIt's got to be awful. All I'm saying is, if you're going to pay 670 bucks for a first class ticket, you should just get, let's just give you some smoked almonds. Give you a 50 cent worth of smoked almonds. But here's the real, here's the killer, Drew. And I didn't do anything. I did have a small talk with the stewardess, but it said, it said, fancy ranch flavored snack mix. She handed me and I thought, this is going to taste like the inside of my grandpa's asshole. I thought to myself, this is going to taste like hell. I mean, if this ass came from a vending machine and you paid 55 cents, you'd be kicking the crap out of the front of it.
38:11🔗DrewYeah, you'd call the business, whoever owned the building, you'd tip the damn thing over.
38:16🔗AdamThat's right. It'd be like 55 cents for this. I'm outraged. You'd get Ralph Nader and Judd McElvain on the phone simultaneously. So here's where it gets good. In small letters on the front though, it says, with almonds. I think to myself, wait a minute. I do enjoy these almonds. I'm sure if I could commandeer seven or 800 packets of this fancy dried crap, I could get like eight almonds out of it.
38:54🔗AdamI tear the thing open like I'm a crime scene investigator at the World Trade Center. I crack the package open, I dump the entire contents out onto that little circular drink thing so it doesn't go anywhere. I start picking through it with my pen. Not one goddamn almond in there.
39:34🔗AdamOutraged, fancy. Somebody find out what happened to the word fancy. Okay. We'll take a little break. We'll come back. Who are we coming back with, Drew?
39:44🔗DrewThere's a guy named Dan on the line here. You pick this one. It's between somebody wants to know why women like nice guys or don't like nice guys but say they want to date them and a guy whose counselor told him to be abusive to his wife. That sounds more interesting.
39:57🔗AdamI like to talk to the abusive counselor guy. And we'll find out what happened to fancy after this. Hey, it's Loveline, everybody. I love that riff. I'm Adam, that's Drew over there. Phone number, 1-800-LOVE-191. Ron Jeremy, legendary porn star and sometimes actor Ron Jeremy in Tomorrow Night. And I'm going to be the host of the show, and sometimes actor Ron Jeremy in Tomorrow Night. Who are we talking to now, Drew?
40:57🔗CallerHi. I've had some marriage problems. It's been made ten years. And two years ago, I went to a psychiatrist to get some help with it. And towards the end of our sessions, he said, you know, you need to be abusive to your wife, physically, emotionally, sexually, and it will help your marriage and it will help your wife. Well, this corresponded to something a caller said last night, said that when she was being abused, she felt safe. And that's what the psychiatrist said, my wife feels safe and loved when she's being abused. And I can't, that's inappropriate. I can't do that to her.
41:39🔗DrewI'm not sure. I'd be very surprised if that's what he told you. I'm not saying you're lying, but I'd be surprised if that's what he meant you to hear. Let's put it that way.
42:07🔗DrewHe's explaining to you why she is the way she is and why that needs to be dismantled, and why you certainly, certainly shouldn't reinforce that old way of doing things.
42:19🔗DrewLet me interrupt you for a second. Adam, I never cease to be amazed by how different what people walk away from what I tell people is as opposed to what I intend them to hear. You know what I mean? I figure it's about 5 percent of what I say.
42:34🔗AdamWell, that's why it's important to be abusive because you figure they're going to talk smack about you and misquote you anyway.
42:40🔗DrewThis happened to me today when you say something and people walk away or they at least behave in a way that they use the information, they change the story. It's just very, very difficult for people to... You got to be really, really super clear with people.
43:21🔗DrewHe's still with us. He's behaving himself.
43:23🔗AdamI'm wondering, Dan, why? Why you thought he was telling you to do that?
43:28🔗CallerWell, you know, it gets worse. Now, this guy was an MD. So I after he said that to me, I got up and I said, I can't go to this guy anymore. I'm going to go find another one.
43:37🔗DrewHang on a second. He didn't tell you to be abusive, right?
43:40🔗CallerOkay. But I went to another psychiatrist, an MD., and after we get through the initial few sessions, he pretty much says the same identical thing.
43:50🔗DrewRight. And we're saying the same thing, too.
44:11🔗AdamWhat kind of environment does she come from?
44:16🔗CallerWell, there has been some abuse in her family. And going through therapy and counseling and all that stuff, she wouldn't have anything to do with it. But me and my brother-in-law, who's also her sister has the same problems, we traced it back over a hundred years, like six different people, literally over a hundred years.
44:45🔗DrewSure. That's the way this... Do you ever listen to this show? I mean, that's all we talk about, is how this goes generation after generation.
44:51🔗AdamThey got a rich tradition there. They're proud people. Well, listen, Dan, I feel for you.
44:58🔗AdamAnd for you to sort of listen with half an ear and then fly off the handle or jump to these sort of erroneous conclusions is not gonna do her any good.
45:10🔗AdamYou get her into therapy and just listen. Don't be ready to pounce.
45:16🔗DrewListen to the people. I know you have a problem with authority, but the authorities know what they're talking about. Let them do their job. You have to create leverage to get her into and keep her in treatment.
45:25🔗AdamI kind of get the feeling that Dan wasn't that interested in the process and was looking for an out.
45:31🔗DrewWell, not an out. You know what I'm saying? He's looking for something to blame.
45:34🔗AdamWell, but I mean, he's looking for... There's a lot of people who go to the shrink to say they went to announce that this guy was a quack, that this guy told him to do something that they didn't tell them to do so that their friends can say, Well, I told you, you know, when you buy one of them rent-a-friends, that ain't nothing. You spend that money on a jet ski, you'll be happier. And they go, all right, and that's all the out you need. I mean, Dan ain't going back, is he? He went to a bunch of guys, a bunch of doctors, MDs, they told him to smack his wife. So would you go back, Drew?
46:13🔗DrewOh God, isn't that bizarre how the doctor says, your wife finds abuse, it's synonymous with love for her, and that's what the source of the problem is. You're telling me to be abusing my wife, I'm getting out of here.
46:25🔗AdamYeah, just going with open ears there, Dan.
46:28🔗DrewNo, no, trust. People don't trust. And you know what, when you've been abused by your parents, it's hard to trust. And Dan has some abuse too, that's what he shares with his wife. Oh boy. Yeah. Here we go. Good times. That's where the paranoia about the man comes from. You know what I'm saying?
46:46🔗AdamYeah. Yeah. But I do believe it's a sort of preconceived notion, which is this ain't gonna work, but I'll do it just because everyone's telling me to do it. And then they go in and they go, see, I told you.
46:59🔗DrewIt's a good out. All right, we got to go to break.
47:21🔗Loveline will be right back. So get your problems ready. Ready.
48:03🔗AdamHey, y'all, it's Loveline. I'm Adam, that's my good partner over there, Dr. Drew. Phone number 1-800-LOVE-191, porn star Ron Jeremy. I think he has the record for the most porn films. We'll ask him about that tomorrow night, but he's like 1,600 or 2,000 porn movies.
48:33🔗DrewAll right, Don is 24. You're still reeling after that Dan guy and his distorted reality?
48:39🔗AdamYeah, I was just thinking about him during the commercial and feeling how angry he was.
48:45🔗DrewYeah, I deal with people like that all day, every day. It is so frustrating because you try to help, but their assumption is you're trying to hurt.
48:53🔗AdamYeah, but Drew, do you know how you tell me how we have to deal with terrorists, that force is the only thing they understand?
49:15🔗CallerWell, I have this one testicle that when I'm having sex, it will actually go up into my stomach area. When I'm playing myself, it does that too.
50:10🔗DrewOh, at the time of the lap dance. Yeah. I guess, what's the name? Minka hurt you, right? Yeah.
50:13🔗AdamThey just put a shin right into my sack.
50:17🔗CallerIf it felt good, it'd be okay, but it doesn't feel good.
50:19🔗DrewYeah, Dan, it's normal. It's not. It's normal. It can sometimes be associated with hernia, but your testes come from your back and descend into the sack. Sometimes that little pathway can be left behind. When the quemisteric muscles contract during sexual arousal or ejaculation, one of them can pop back inside. You have to push it out even sometimes.
51:41🔗AdamI mean, like Don totally baked. Like, how, Drew, how much would you pay to get Don totally baked and watch Airplane or Fast Times at Ridgemont High with him?
51:53🔗DrewOh, my God. You would have to watch anything. You'd laugh at him, he'd laugh at you, and it would cycle around.
51:57🔗AdamYou could just get baked and watch the test pattern.
52:11🔗CallerHi. I can't go to sleep, and then I won't be able to sleep for a couple of days, and then it'll just hit me and I'll sleep constantly. I can't help myself.
53:14🔗CallerNo, I'm not tired at all. It just feels like I'm totally awake.
53:17🔗DrewYeah, you should get this looked into, Terry, seriously. There are other things like thyroid conditions and what not that can do this, but this is something worth evaluating because there's actually some good evidence that right around your age until about the age of 22, if these swings start becoming more substantial, if they're not contained and managed, they become permanently more intense. The best way I can describe it to you, it's like there are swings of a pendulum, and if you get that momentum going, it'll keep going at a very high rate, while if you contain it now, it tends to stay contained for the long-term better, okay?
54:01🔗But it's like, I don't have anything that would cause this.
54:03🔗DrewTerry, you were born with this. It's something that just happens to some people, and you already said your mom has to be on stabilizers, and it tends to go in families, okay?
54:13🔗CallerSo like nothing I can do about it, because I don't want to be on drugs.
54:32🔗AdamDon't you wish ATMs gave out fives and tens too?
54:37🔗DrewI'm not in Las Vegas right now, so it doesn't matter when you're in Los Angeles.
54:41🔗AdamNo, but here's what I'm saying. You ever get yourself into this trouble? You go to the ATM, you get out a couple of hundred bucks worth of 20s and you're walking around. If you go to Vegas, now all you got is 20s in your pocket. You're checking into the hotel and I got a bag the size of a bowling ball bag. I mean, it's the size of like a wig bag or something. It's a foot by foot. The guy grabs it out of my hand and says, Mr. Corolla, let me help you to the elevator with that. And I go, no, no, that's OK. And he goes, no, no problem at all. And he walks me over to the elevator 50 feet away and hands it to me. Now he's standing there and I'm thinking, all I got is 20 bucks. I got a bunch of 20s. I got to give him 20. So I give him 20 and then I go get my car. And it's the same thing. You know, the guy brings the car around.
55:34🔗AdamI'm staying in a nice hotel. The guy's like, yes, Mr. Corolla, yes, you're looking smart today, Mr. Corolla. We're so happy to have you back.
55:46🔗AdamWe're so happy to have you back. Did you have a safe flight? I take it that everything will be in order here for you. So the guy's kissing ass. Of course, you want to give him something. But you give him 20 bucks. And then the guy brings the car around. And again, it's like 20 bucks and just 20, 20, 20. I just wish the thing would spit out some change.
56:15🔗CallerWhen I go down on my girlfriend, she gets an irritation and she went to go see her gynecologist and she said it was the pH of my saliva. I was wondering if there's anything I can do.
56:39🔗DrewI don't, by the way, believe that. But I mean, I don't believe that has a significant impact. But I don't see how you can just change the pH of your saliva.
58:45🔗Nothing. Just kind of relaxing, I guess. How are you?
58:50🔗DrewWe're good. What can we do for you tonight?
58:52🔗Well, I've been in a confusing situation lately, and my boyfriend was living with me for a little while, and he's an alcoholic, and he just recently moved down with his mom in San Diego to go to rehab, but it's been getting worse, and he comes out of that.
59:15🔗Yeah, well, he's an outpatient. He kind of checked himself into a mental rehab, but they didn't think that he should probably be there because he's an alcoholic, even though he's having a lot of psychological problems too. And he moved in with his mom down in San Diego because he had gotten really drunk and stabbed himself in the side.
59:40🔗AdamWhy aren't you married to this guy? This guy sounds like a keeper.
59:44🔗Well, it's really hard to explain. I mean, we've been together for so long, and it hasn't been bad, and it's hard. He's just been slowly, slowly bringing himself down, and he went down there to go to rehab, and now he's becoming a causative alcoholic, drinking after he gets out.
1:00:17🔗No, I mean, like, I've talked to them before, and he's told them this stuff, but he's signed himself up for outpatient, and they won't continue to use him.
1:00:25🔗DrewNo, they won't continue to treat him in outpatient if he's continuing to use. They won't.
1:00:28🔗He's in jail now. He grabbed him to school down there and beat up some cops, and he went to jail. After the weekend before, he had got stopped by military police on his way out here to visit me and beat up a bunch of military police.
1:00:43🔗I'm just kind of wondering what I should do because he's been kind of, I want to be there for him and I still want to be with him, but I don't know.
1:00:52🔗DrewYou all right, Jamie, stop. You have one and only one move. You can go to Al-Anon and get a sponsor and work there every day with a sponsor. That is it. You don't do that, you're going to contribute to his disease and you're going to contribute to your own misery. That is your one and only move.
1:02:20🔗DrewOkay. Well, so you have some understanding here of why you're choosing people that are just very, very disturbed to get attached to. Because that's all you've been is somebody attached to disturb, to disturb people.
1:02:30🔗But I don't understand why it's like that. I mean, my last boyfriend and me, we, I broke up with him because he was very abusive.
1:02:38🔗DrewRight. You're going to pick, you're going to only be attracted.
1:02:46🔗He's like not like my ex-boyfriend. He's not like bad, like, physically or anything.
1:02:52🔗AdamThis guy is beating up, he's beating up enlisted men and cops and getting drunk and driving into schools.
1:02:59🔗DrewThere's different flavors of abuse. He'll get to the physical abuse eventually.
1:03:02🔗It's like really hard to explain that because he's not-
1:03:04🔗DrewAll right. Now we're wasting our time. You have one move. No matter how involved the stories are, no matter what else you have to say, there's only one and only one thing for you to do and that's to go to Al and I and get a sponsor. That's it. If you want to get a therapist and also do some hard work, that's fine. But right now, if you want to have any impact on what's going on with this guy and in your relationship, you must do that. Period.
1:03:25🔗AdamLet me float this theory here, Drew. Wait a minute. It wasn't a theory. It was just a fart.
1:03:31🔗AdamI'm done. Now, here's what I wanted to say. What about this theory? Someone who we're just being to, Jamie. Someone like Jamie has profound problems of her own. I mean, abusive, alcoholic stepdad, sexually abused by stepbrother. God knows what kind of gal mom was. God knows what kind of pal dad was. She's got some serious, serious issues that are going to take a lot of focus and a lot of work, right?
1:04:02🔗AdamBut she gets hooked up with Johnny Rebel over here, and every ounce of her extra energy goes into looking after him, piecing him together, worried about him in his therapy.
1:04:16🔗DrewThat's how she manages her pain, her apnea.
1:04:19🔗AdamRight, right, right. And what I'm saying is, if she got left alone without a project, she would start feeling something that was so powerful that she would have to deal with that, or it keeps her away from her work because she's working on him.
1:04:34🔗DrewThat's right, absolutely. But she'd find some distraction. She'd get bored or something.
1:04:39🔗AdamRight, but I'm just wondering if, you know, we always talk about the history and about how things get hardwired into your brain and where that attraction is. But it seems like an element of it could be the fact that she doesn't have to do anything on herself because she's constantly focused on patching him together.
1:04:58🔗DrewWell, that's absolutely what it is. It's arousal. It's another form of using arousal to deal with unpleasant, dangerous, overwhelming feelings.
1:05:06🔗AdamI'm still not really saying that though.
1:05:22🔗AdamHe's not a bad guy. I don't want to leave him. You know what I mean? So all the hard work that she has to do, all the painful work she has to do can immediately go into him because who's got time for her when this guy's in the pokey.
1:05:34🔗DrewRight. It's more painful to look at her. Too painful.
1:06:02🔗DrewWell, you've actually been on hold shorter than any of our callers, so don't...
1:06:05🔗Really? I was trying to call her. Anyway, something gets my problem. For like the past two weeks, I've been having these really, really interesting dreams about male celebrities. They've been like middle-aged and...
1:06:20🔗DrewThis is the comedy out of... How old is middle-aged?
1:06:23🔗Like, thirty-seven, and like thirty to like thirty-seven or so. And Adam's one of them.
1:08:03🔗DrewMegan is fine. You're absolutely fine. You're fine.
1:08:06🔗AdamHave your little fantasies about your superstar male idols.
1:08:11🔗DrewHere's the thing about fantasies, enjoy them. You know what I'm saying? Don't feel you have to act them out or you have to figure them out. They're fine. Relax.
1:08:20🔗Can I just say something? Sure. You guys are really cool. Me and my friend John listen to you every single night.
1:08:25🔗DrewI love that Orlando. You've been to Orlando Adam. Yeah, you were in a parade at Disney World, weren't you?
1:08:31🔗AdamYeah, everyone is yelling, who are you?
1:08:33🔗Like our school is like 10 minutes away from Disney.
1:08:46🔗AdamMe and John Ritter. Yeah, they sold the pilot and they offered me just SAG minimum scale like the same. You know the money you get when you do PI politically incorrect or any of those shows, Drew? That's what they offered me per show.
1:09:05🔗AdamHow dare they? How dare they? I made quite an impact on them. Drew, I'm sitting in one of these chairs now where no matter how many times you scooch up five minutes later, you're lying down on it and you're under pants or wedged up your ass. You know those chairs?
1:09:49🔗AdamOh, man. Okay, Drew. I really need to talk to you off the air about first class and snacks, Drew. I mean, when can we do that?
1:09:58🔗DrewI'm flying tomorrow. You can call me on my car on the way home.
1:10:00🔗AdamI'll call you on the way home to really get in to this. I don't want to bore the listeners, but as you know, I have another 15 to 20 minutes on this subject.
1:10:08🔗DrewIf I dial your number, will I get you in Vegas?
1:10:10🔗AdamYeah, I think you will. All right. We'll take a little break. We'll be right back.
1:11:52🔗Yes, I did. I had found out about a day before Halloween. And I had been to the ER room for about, like, Thanksgiving night and Saturday night, cramping and bleeding.
1:12:09🔗Yeah, threatened abortion is what they had said. And they did ultrasound and they did blood work and the HCG was going up day by day, but I came back out of town Sunday night and I went back to work and the cramping and the bleeding just got worse. So, when I went back to the ER over here in Santa Clara, they had told me that the baby wasn't going to do, it wasn't going to make it. And he had diagnosed it being a missed abortion.
1:12:45🔗DrewWell, a missed abortion means it's already over. Really? Yeah, incomplete.
1:12:49🔗What had happened? I was seven weeks and five days.
1:12:52🔗DrewThat's, you know, first trimester abortions are very, very common.
1:12:56🔗DrewMost first trimesters end in some sort of miscarriage. And miscarriage is, abortion and miscarriage are the same term. And there's threatened abortion, meaning it's gonna happen, might happen, incomplete abortion, meaning it's mostly happened and they need to go and scrape the rest out. And missed abortion, which is what they missed, I guess.
1:13:11🔗AdamBut Drew, don't most people look at abortion as something that it's a procedure that's done in a miscarriage, as something that happens spontaneously?
1:13:20🔗DrewYeah, in terms of the technical terms, it's called spontaneous abortion versus therapeutic abortion.
1:13:28🔗AdamHow old are you? Yeah. So you were trying to get pregnant?
1:14:39🔗DrewI wonder what's up with you. Yeah, I know. What kind of family you came from. But I usually push, because most women go, oh, marriage is just a piece of paper and we love each other. That's BS. You want to get married. It's a good thing to get married for your kids, have a commitment that's formal.
1:15:46🔗DrewKeep that emergency contraceptive around. So if you ever have an accident like that again, you can take those pills, prevent the egg from reaching the sperm, not causing an abortion, just prevent the pregnancy from being established, not causing problems with the implantation because it doesn't cause implantation problems, any more likely than your usual birth control pills, or then Vioxx, or then Celebrex, other medication that people use chronically and regularly.
1:16:11🔗AdamListen, all you screw balls out there, you got some issues, you got some problems, you're not sure if you want to get married, you're in counseling, you don't know where you're at, you're young, that's great, that's fine. Don't have the goddamn kids though. Well, how can you be so casual about that? I mean, about everything else, you plot and you plan, like a field marshal. You know, I mean, when you bring up the topic of marriage to Jewette, she's very deliberate. She's like, I'm not ready, I'm in counseling, I have some difficulties. Meanwhile, if we crank out a few kids while I'm getting my ass together, so be it.
1:16:52🔗DrewAnd by the way, those are the kids that are going to experience life the one that you experienced. When you're trying to protect them from, you're bringing them right into that world.
1:17:01🔗AdamYeah. You got issues? Fine. Work them out, then have the kids. Don't start a brood while you're getting your ass together. Jeremy. What could be more selfish?
1:17:14🔗CallerYeah. My friend and I at school, we always joke around about STDs and stuff. And this one day, he had a sore throat and he was like, oh God, it feels like I have gonorrhea of the throat. And I was just wondering, is like that possible?
1:17:29🔗DrewAbsolutely. Chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, they can all occur in the mouth and throat. That's the fact.
1:17:36🔗CallerI thought he was just joking around.
1:17:37🔗DrewNo joking. That's why you're supposed to use a condom when you have oral sex. Brian, 17.
1:17:43🔗DrewHe didn't know that that actually occurs. Brian, 17.
1:17:45🔗CallerHi. Um, well, how's it going? I'm sorry. My friend committed suicide on Monday, and he left a note behind that it had a lot of problems in it, and I didn't really think that he was all that much in trouble. But, I mean, I don't know. But one of the things in the note was about how all of his friends were making him feel really dumb, or that his grades weren't as good as ours, and stuff. And he, like, I think that, I don't know, I feel really bad. But I mean...
1:18:24🔗AdamWell, let me ask a couple questions. How did you get access to the note?
1:18:30🔗CallerWell, because I'm friends with his sister, and her parent, like their family, you know, they all were there when they found him, and they called the police, and the police let them read the note.
1:18:45🔗AdamAnd, and what, how did he kill himself?
1:18:56🔗AdamAnd, and they called the cops, and the cops came, and then the cops found the note before they did?
1:19:02🔗CallerNo, well, the note was in his bedroom, but he was in the bathroom, and they just freaked out. I mean, it was, from what I hear from his sister, it was pretty bad.
1:19:13🔗AdamYeah, I could imagine. Yeah. And, and so in the note, they tell you talked about people making fun of him, and friends, and classmates.
1:19:22🔗CallerNo, he was, he was a popular, you know, he was like, he was in with like all of us, and he's a really nice guy, and he played football. But I mean, this is, you know, like the end of our junior year, and he was worried about going to college, and his grades were, he took a way too hard schedule, I told him, this semester.
1:19:53🔗CallerBut I mean, he, his midterm grades were sick, they were, I mean, they were really bad, I was trying to help, but he was like...
1:20:01🔗DrewWell, but the grades falling is just a sign of depression. That's the most surefire sign that somebody's getting depressed, that their grades suddenly get bad. So that's just a sign that he was already in trouble. Did he have a failed relationship or something?
1:20:13🔗CallerNo, I think he, I seriously, like, he was better at English and writing and, you know, poetry and stuff, and he took, he took, like, advanced...
1:20:23🔗DrewWas he, was he smoking pot or doing drugs?
1:20:25🔗CallerCalc or anything. No, no, no, he was a straight edge, he was a good guy.
1:20:29🔗AdamAre you, do you go to a private school?
1:20:31🔗CallerNo, we, we go to, well, I don't want to say the name of the school, but I mean, we go to a high school.
1:20:37🔗AdamOh, jeez, what's up with you guys that you care about your grades so much? I swear to Christ, I was just thinking about Brian here, I thought, if, if all of my friends who got bad grades killed themselves, I wouldn't have any friends. I've just gone through life alone. You know, what's funny about our friends is we made fun of the guys who got good grades.
1:21:02🔗AdamThe story, but let's talk about how this makes him feel because we just see he's not hanging together for me. Are you feeling you feeling responsible?
1:21:10🔗CallerThe dilemma is that like I'm still friends with his sister and she's, you know, she's a good friend of mine. And it's like her parents are reacting really funny to any of my friends and, you know, us like, I mean, it's just it's just been three days, you know, to be to be said. But I mean, it's like I went over there once and they just like they they couldn't even be in the same room with me. Like, I mean, I guess that in the note, you know, he blamed his friends pretty hard. And I mean, it's their fault because like, you know, they pressured him a lot. But I mean, with all of us, like not helping as much as we should have. And it was just I don't know. I feel really bad.
1:21:55🔗AdamWell, OK, here's the deal. The guy was depressed. Unfortunately, this happens, you know, far too often. People write a bunch of stuff, sort of immediate stuff that's going on.
1:22:07🔗DrewAnd they also, yeah, there's a certain amount of fantasy that they're going to use their suicide as a way of getting back at people and showing people. And they're not thinking rationally and normally about the reality of the consequence of their behavior. Furthermore, I'd guarantee you a lot more going on here. It's not the fact that friends or me and him had precipitated a suicide. It's not the way it works.
1:22:26🔗AdamBy the way, these sound like pretty nice friends.
1:22:29🔗DrewYeah, yeah. It's not the way it works.
1:22:30🔗AdamI mean, as far as 17-year-old guys, this does not come close to abuse.
1:22:39🔗DrewYeah. I mean, just give them a couple of examples of what you guys did to each other, just peeing on each other and crapping each other.
1:22:44🔗AdamHeld each other down and beat the crap out of each other. Constantly.
1:22:51🔗DrewHe shouldn't blame himself. The only thing that one can learn from situations like this is to pay attention and to get people to care, because you cannot stop these things from happening, nor are you responsible for them.
1:23:03🔗AdamJesus. Could you ever be right as a parent, Drew?
1:23:06🔗DrewNo. You just always reduced to parent, which is not a great place to be.
1:23:11🔗AdamNo. I mean, as a parent, could you ever be right again?
1:23:26🔗AdamI mean, would you just take it personally, right?
1:23:31🔗DrewYeah. I mean, the feelings would just be overwhelming. You wouldn't even know what to feel. But parents that are narcissistic would then wouldn't feel these things, they would blame other people. They would do anything not to actually feel responsible, and they would get furious and rageful at everyone else and blame them.
1:23:47🔗AdamI'll tell you, if I was Brian, if I was Brian, I would stay out of that household for a couple of months, you know?
1:23:54🔗DrewWell, but be close to the sister, as his friend, he can support her, but maybe at the school, as opposed to going around there, particularly treating you badly. And those are the kinds of parents that would have a kid that couldn't go anywhere with his feelings.
1:24:23🔗CallerHello, this is your radio. Love Line will be right back.
1:25:03🔗AdamHey, y'all, Loveline. I'm Adam. That's Drew. Porn star extraordinaire, Ron Jeremy, in the studio tomorrow night.
1:25:11🔗DrewI didn't like how you said that. Hey, everybody. I'm Adam. That's Drew. Porn star extraordinaire. Ron Jeremy will be in here tomorrow night.
1:25:18🔗AdamYeah, Drew, porn star extraordinaire. Ron is like the world's only Jewish porn star.
1:26:01🔗CallerI talked to my girlfriend about it two nights ago. The subject of sex came up. I don't know where she tells me that she wants to have sex until she gets married. I told her, you know, when did you come with, you know, when did you decide to do that? She never told me this when we started dating. So I just figured she wouldn't have that, you know, that thing in her mind or whatever.
1:26:39🔗DrewShe's not doing anything to you. That's her. That's just what's important to her.
1:26:42🔗AdamWell, she's doing something to poor Saul's penis.
1:26:44🔗DrewIt affects Saul, but it's about, she's not doing it to do anything to you. She's doing it because that's her values. That's what's important to her. And if you either support that or you don't, if you don't, she's not willing to compromise, then that makes a relationship end.
1:26:56🔗CallerI support her in everything, but just that, she wants to know what she wants to know. She tells me, do you want to continue? You want to wait for me?
1:27:29🔗DrewBecause he's 17, he wants to bang a 15-year-old, just because she at 15 has a fantasy that she'll manage to wait till marriage. He wants to just- He's always worried about what she's doing to him, and all he's concerned about is how he can do something he wants to do to her.
1:27:46🔗AdamWell, he's 17. He's got needs. Listen, here's what's going to end up happening. Her and Saul are going to break up over this. Four months later, she'll be banging one of Saul's friends.
1:28:48🔗DrewIt's the other way around, it's dorme, it's brother John, brother John, are you sleeping? And in English it's are you sleeping? Are you sleeping, brother John?
1:29:06🔗Hey. I have a problem with my boyfriend right now. We've been together for almost four years and things are good to a certain extent. We have a lot of fun together and everything like that. We're like best friends and everything. But everybody is telling me to break up with him.
1:29:21🔗DrewHey, Andrea, how far up north in Michigan are you?
1:30:20🔗AdamWhy are your friends and boy, there's nothing more insulting than everyone you know wanting you to break up with someone you're with. Why do they want that?
1:30:29🔗Because they see that I'm unhappy and that I'm 19 and I shouldn't be settled down like this with someone.
1:30:44🔗Well, you know, most girls when they're having a problem, they bitch about their boyfriends. They don't come to work and say, Oh, he's so great and blah, blah, blah. You know, when they're pissed off, that's when they vent, you know.
1:30:54🔗AdamWell, what's he doing? What's he doing to you?
1:30:56🔗Okay, well, I work full-time, he works full-time, okay? I'm 19 years old. I come home and I cook and I clean and I take care of the dishes. I do the laundry. I go grocery shopping. He comes home and sits on his ass. Now, I understand that...
1:31:15🔗Well, the thing is, I'm a really good girlfriend. I'm there for him. I listen to him. I mean, I'm in the bedroom. Everything is cool. I mean, he gets what he wants. I mean, so I just want him to treat me with a little bit more respect.
1:31:33🔗DrewHere's what you're describing a classic situation in co-dependence, Andrea, is where you take care of him and all your, you know, he's so wonderful and you do everything to meet his needs. And goddamn it, I'm entitled to more. And you know what? You're not entitled to, yes, you're not. You're entitled to your life. You're entitled to having some respect of your feelings. And that's it. You're not supposed to take care of him. And you're not entitled to anything for having taken care of him.
1:31:57🔗CallerWell, I don't try to take care of him.
1:31:58🔗DrewYeah, but you do. And he's a drug addict. He's a marijuana addict and he needs to deal with that. And you need to not enable that anymore.
1:32:04🔗AdamReally? Andra's 19 and sounds like she's been in a bad marriage since she was, you know, she sounds like she's 45 and in a bad marriage. I work all day. I come home. I do the dishes. He sits on his duff.
1:32:17🔗DrewBut that's codependency. That's what that is. She's enabling all those behaviors. He smokes pot and he's paralyzed by all the pot.
1:32:23🔗AdamAll right. Dump him. Go to agree with your friends.
1:32:26🔗DrewOr make him go to MA, make him stop the pot and see if that doesn't change him. We're done.
1:32:31🔗AdamThat's it? All right. We'll be right back.
1:33:24🔗AdamI want to thank all the folks involved for putting it on, and the folks over here in Las Vegas who made it possible for me to be with you tonight.
1:33:33🔗DrewAnd you're just going to run now to Olympic Gardens. So GD, oh, nice.
1:33:52🔗AdamAll right. I'm going to run over to the Olympic Gardens and get myself a nice lamp dance. Drew, you run home and have your wife kick your nuts around like a hacky sack.
1:34:11🔗AdamI'll call you on your cell phone there, Drew. Adam Carolla for Dr. Drew saying mahalo. I need a hair from the whore that bit me.
