1:03🔗AdamIt's the Love Line with Adam. That's Doctor Who. Dr. Bruce. You know him. It's Dr. Spaz. Board-certified physician. He's an addiction medicine specialist. He's also an emergency medicine specialist.
1:23🔗AdamHe's really more qualified than Dr. Drew. He actually is.
1:27🔗AdamHas Drew drawn any parallels with Howard Dean being... We were all board-certified in internal medicine in the early 80s. It's a scary thing to think of.
1:35🔗AdamHe's not brought his name up. Dr. Bruce also does specialties with laser work. Tattoo removal and taking away wrinkles. Brofacial, botox. Botox. Here's the thing. If you have a question, it has to do with a laser. Bruce could probably lend his...
1:59🔗AdamOr you can go to dr.bruce.com and ask questions there. I also have help numbers for suicide and other...
2:06🔗AdamAll right. You can do that. Dr. Bruce is filming for Drew, who's in Utah or something at some ski show. Bruce is going to be in tomorrow night too?
2:28🔗AdamCan I say hi to my seven-year-old daughter, Elizabeth?
2:31🔗AdamThat would be impossible. I love Dr. Bruce. I really do. I call him Dr. Spaz, but I do it with all great affection, although I will get angry at him at some point during the time of the show. But that's only because he wants it, and he needs discipline. All right. So, holy Christ, I lost more money today. I can't gamble. There's a movie out now with William H. Macy and dear, dear, dear, dear friend Alec Baldwin called The Cooler. I am the football gambling cooler.
3:07🔗AdamI would have been on Philadelphia and Peyton Manning. Indianapolis. That's what I would have.
3:13🔗AdamWell, okay. Here's what happens. I get sucked in. Here's how you get sucked in. You see, you see, first off, I hang around with cousin Sal the bookie all day. So it's hard when they're asking you casually, I'm putting something in. You want me to put something in for you? I'm going to put something in. Because here's the whole thing, really. When you're in the proximity of a bookie, it's like having a slot machine on wheels just following you around. You got a handful of quarters and the slot machine is going, you want to try one? Right. Obviously, if the slot machine is not there, you just keep walking. But you know, here's how much, first off, I lose, every time I gamble, I lose. But secondly, although I did win the Super Bowl last year, that was after losing all year, I just said, let it all ride on the Super Bowl and got back to even. But, I'm the same with gambling as I am with desserts or something. If someone says, if the waitress says, you want dessert, I say, no, no thanks, I'm watching my calories. If the waitress brings out a dessert and sets it in front of me and says, a little compliment to the chef, it's gone.
4:17🔗AdamIt's all over. So, I've realized that's how I am and probably that's how most people are.
4:21🔗AdamRight. And then if you lose, you're going to make it up by this great bet the next time.
4:25🔗AdamRight. So, okay, so here's the thing. Pats are playing the Colts. Colts have been unstoppable. They're offense, but Pats are tough at home. I have no feeling for this game exactly. I kind of like the Colts. I feel like they're going to put some points on the board. Manning's been playing so great. They haven't punted the whole playoffs. Not one punt. So, I think that game's going to be pretty close. And then I got Carolina in Philly and I'm thinking, geez, that is another tough game. That seems like a pretty hard fought close game. I kind of like Carolina a little. So, Cousin Sal says, how about the teaser? And I said, well, what's the teaser? What's the teaser? Because I've played the teasers before. Teaser sounds like guaranteed money. Here's how the teaser goes. You get six points both ways. Here's the deal. You could take the Colts and get nine points. Wow, nine points. That's a lot. Manning, lighten up the scoreboard. The Pats are going to have to beat them. No way you think you could lose that bet. What's the other one? You could take Carolina and get ten points. So all they have to do is relatively close games. Hell, let the Pats win by touchdown. Let Philly win by touchdown. I still win. Besides, Carolina's probably going to win that game outright. Sure, set. Sign me up. Sign me up. Now, so, they're behind the Pats. The Colts are behind the Pats the whole game. But at the very end, pal, they put a score up, and now it's 14 to 21, right? And it's like, I've covered, we'll cover, we'll cover here. Two and a half minutes left. They go for the onside kick, they get it, they get the ball, they give it back, they get it. With 40 seconds left, the Pats are forced to kick a field goal. And of course, what does that put them up by? Ten points. Ten goddamn points. And the second that game's over, I announce to the room of fans, listen, Carolina, we're going to win outright. Because if you lose your first teaser game, the second one is going to come through. Now obviously, I had Carolina in ten points in the next teaser, so by halftime I had like a 24 point lead.
6:36🔗AdamDid he win? No. He lost two. They both lost at one goddamn point. But here's the thing, you know, and then there's the knife-twisting part where I said to the room, OK, now you realize Carolina is going to win the game, because of course if Philly beats them and kills them at that one point, that's not a knife-twist anymore, right? And so someone says, why don't you bet for Carolina? I did. I said, you want me to take you down? I'll bet them right now and have them lose. You'll lose your money. Now see, if I bet, they're gone. I'll take them down. You should hope that I stay away from them so you can take your money.
7:17🔗AdamFourteen to twenty-one with two and a half minutes left in the game. I mean, when it's fourteen to twenty-one with two and a half minutes left in the game and your money's on the team that's losing, you're thinking, we may get to overtime. We may tie this thing up if we can get the ball back. No, no you don't.
7:36🔗AdamYou know, there's some good GA meetings. I sense a little loss of control, Adam.
8:04🔗Dr. BruceHey, what's up, you guys? It's Dr. Bruce. Nice to talk to you, I guess. I got a question for you. I became sexually active kind of late, like around 19, I guess, which is pretty late for a guy.
8:18🔗AdamThat's young for Bruce's crowd. You're just a baby. Bruce started last week.
8:48🔗AdamListen, here's the thing. Hand job, I don't blame you for. Oral, I'm outraged. But the hand job, look, there's a lot of guys, a high percentage of guys who, you know, they ain't going to work unless it's insertion. Yes? Yes.
9:09🔗AdamLet me, yeah, but let me see if I can train you a little bit here. You have a girlfriend?
9:16🔗Dr. BruceNo, actually, I had a girlfriend and then I was, realized that I was gay and I thought maybe that was the problem, but I still haven't been able to happen with a guy either.
9:27🔗AdamI was joking when I said maybe I haven't found the right fella, but evidently not. So have you ever been traumatized?
10:32🔗AdamSo why don't you just, so why don't you, so you're going to stick with guys now, right? Yes. So, and you want to know why you can't have an orgasm through oral sex or manual manipulation with a guy, quiet down, Bruce. You got to find a guy, fall in love, have a relationship, and then start working all that crap out.
10:55🔗AdamIt's an anxiety thing probably. And some of these things are learned behaviors or practiced behaviors, and it's not an automatic thing that you come as a packaged sex machine and everything works just the way it should in any given situation.
11:10🔗AdamWell, look at any facet of life, whether it's a friendship or a relationship with a therapist or a personal trainer or whoever it is, if you just went from one to first date, first workout, first tryout, first day of the job, how good would your relationship ever be? How good would your performance ever be?
11:33🔗AdamAnd then you have certain criteria, well, I didn't have this happen on this encounter.
11:37🔗AdamYeah, if you sort of think about your first day of school, your first day of work, your first date, your first whatever, it's never any, it's your tenth one by the time you start to loosen up and hit your stride, it's the same physically.
11:53🔗AdamRight, and this guy's interactions around sex are very confused up until a certain point, so there's got to be a lot of anxiety and a lot of insecurity.
12:01🔗AdamIt's really weird from a societal standpoint because we've managed to convince everybody or at least the males that that one night stand is the best it's ever going to get sexually. I mean, in terms of the media and television, radio, movies, it's like, hey man, that one night man, if you could get her into the sack, it would be the greatest thing ever. Every other facet of life, it's very clear that first time out, people don't even judge you. A quarterback that's a rookie that's coming off the bench, you know, it's always like, hey, he's going to make mistakes. The sex is no different than any of these other things. It's even more so, I would say. You probably have a better shot of having a better time with a personal trainer or something the first time you went to work with them than you did some chick you got on top of after you drank like 11 Zemas.
12:53🔗AdamThank you. No, I'm not. Here's my abstinence. Stop talking. That's what I want. That's a form. That's a Bruce abstinence. That's what I want. Stop talking.
13:27🔗AdamYou want to punch the mic six times now, all right. Just whacking it. He hits the mic with his chest, hit it with his sternum, hit it with his breastplate the other day. He hits it with his elbow. He whacks it with his coffee mug. And he's like, every time I say to him, stop punching the goddamn mic, he's like, hey, Adam, that's, I'm clumsy. I'm like, well, put your hands by your side.
13:51🔗AdamYou know, I'm not likely to bang the mic unless you keep yelling at me and get me more anxious. And I think if you just leave Drew alone, leave me alone. You stay on that side of the table. I stay on this side. I say, I provide the expertise, the medical expertise.
14:09🔗AdamBut you put a little gel in your hair tonight and that's a good thing. When Bruce comes in here with dry hair, when he's dry head, he's all over the place. He's got the gel. That's like Batman's utility belt, that gel in your hair.
14:25🔗AdamIs it all about the tippity-pip? The only time I put gel in my hair is when I fill in on Love Line.
14:43🔗AdamLater on, you can tell me why Drew insists on punching the microphone on a nightly basis.
14:49🔗AdamI'll do an interpretive psychoanalytic study on you and Drew and why you're a man.
14:53🔗AdamOh, I know. I know, I know, I know what he does and I know why he does it. Elmer?
14:59🔗What's up, Adam? Dr. Drew? You guys are great. I'm Dr. Bruce. You're the best villain ever.
15:08🔗AdamWhere do we get someone competent in here?
15:13🔗Well, my wife kind of set me up with this call, but you know, I come from a pretty strong Filipino family and I'm planning on getting a vasectomy and I just wanted to know you guys' personal experience with friends maybe you have who have had vasectomies because I've got all this superstitious spiritual mojo that's like trying to get me, you know, half foot in, half out, half foot out, and I've got like two weeks to be there, you know what I mean?
15:37🔗AdamYour wife wants you to get the vasectomy.
15:39🔗Well, actually, I agree to it. I want to do it. I mean, we've pushed out four kids or she's pushed out four kids for me.
15:48🔗AdamYou're just, you're really just changing the plumbing and there's no studies haven't shown any long-term effects. There was a theory that you created antibodies to sperm and that there could be some long-term immunologic complications and that turned out not to be true. So there's no long-term medical complications. You know, your mojo, your spiritual karma, whatever you believe in, there's been no, there's been nothing to suggest that people have any depression or any kind of psychological problems.
16:16🔗AdamWell, what about your wife getting on the pill?
16:20🔗Well, you know, she tried a couple types of birth control, like the pill, epidural, stuff like that, but she's always had bad reactions, like depression or moving, stuff like that.
16:41🔗I got one other question about that. I mean, I just went in for a consultation for the no scalpel method. Now what is the scalpel method? I mean, what's the difference between those two methods?
17:10🔗AdamNo, but you're not going into the scrotum itself.
17:12🔗AdamThis oftentimes happens if Bruce doesn't know and then he ends up trying to see the song and dance for 20 minutes.
17:17🔗No, I can't believe I'm on air with you guys, man. You know, you guys got me through college like, like crazy, you know, and I had to do two-hour commutes and stuff. Oh, man, listen to that.
17:26🔗AdamHey, thanks, Elmer. Visectomy. Visectomy sounds like a, like a female Filipino name, doesn't it? Like Elmer. I'm going to set you up with a Visectomy. Yeah, don't they have all those names? I work with a Filipino guy named Pogi.
17:43🔗AdamMeans handsome. Yeah. But here's the thing. I was thinking, you know, you go, you go, Pogi, what's that name mean? It's like means handsome in Filipino. I'm like, oh, that's nice. Everyone thinks that's nice, but you're an asshole when you're in the Philippines, right? Hey, everybody, it's handsome.
17:58🔗CallerDon't call me that, you know what I mean? That's, that's the kind of reaction you get from people when they say that to you, you know?
18:03🔗AdamGood guy. You can't generalize about racial things, but all the Filipino friends I have have been the nicest, happiest people, great people.
18:10🔗AdamGood people. Got nothing against those people. We are grateful for everything. They are good people. All right.
18:17🔗AdamSo, There is a new procedure. I'm not that familiar with it. It's less traumatic. And typically, it's done in less than five minutes and it's very safe, tried and true. Get it done.
18:41🔗CallerAdam, you're the best. And Anderson, your soundbites rule the show and Bruce, you're pretty cool too.
18:47🔗AdamAnderson with that. Anderson's a strong, young following. Yeah. Yeah. That would have been the time he should have dropped in a soundbite, by the way. There you go. Go ahead, Zane.
19:00🔗CallerMy question is, I've been sweating a lot lately in social situations and when I get nervous, and I was just wondering if there's any medications out there that I can take to correct that.
19:12🔗AdamWell, I happen to know something about this. First off, don't let Dr. Bruce give you a thousand shots of Botox in your forehead saying that will stop you from sweating.
19:25🔗CallerWell, no, it's not my forehead. It's just my armpits.
19:27🔗AdamOh, your armpits. You get the pit sweat. Yeah. You know, people who get the pit sweat complain that this is the worst sweat of all. I would argue that my forehead sweat is worse than your pit sweat because everyone gets the pit sweat.
19:41🔗AdamAnd not everybody is under TV camera lights like you are.
19:47🔗AdamSo here's the deal, Zane. I've done a little research on this. A, there are surgeries if it's a dire thing, and the pit sweat surgery is not that big a surgery. I don't know if it's the same as the palm sweat one, but there are actual surgeries you can do. There's also like a topical medications you can put on, too.
20:14🔗AdamRight. You always mention it and I can never remember it.
20:16🔗AdamX-E-R-A-C, I think. Yeah. You got that? Xerac? Yeah, X-E-R-A-C, I think is how you spell it. But anyway, it's just a consistency of water, and it stops you from sweating. There's also pills you can take that will stop you from sweating, too.
20:38🔗AdamYeah, but you know, really the Botox injections.
20:46🔗AdamYou mean they're very effective? You shot me in the forehead like as if a couple rounds of a shotgun were fired into my goddamn forehead and it did nothing.
20:58🔗AdamDrew was sitting here, you were turning white, Drew's laughing and going, keep going, and you're going, well, after about ten little injections, little injections like with a tuberculin.
21:08🔗AdamYou had put seventy injections into my forehead.
21:12🔗AdamWe didn't finish the procedure and I had mercy on you.
21:18🔗AdamYeah, and okay, so the Botox for palms and for underarms is really quite successful and it's not that painful. It's probably more painful in your forehead because you have thinner skin and it's going to be less well tolerated. But there is a minor surgical procedure where you're cutting nerves at supply.
21:38🔗AdamI just got done saying this. Here's the thing. Get on the internet and start checking it out. There are topical things you can put on.
21:46🔗AdamHyperhidrosis is the term and if you do a search under that term, you'll find there are many numerous practices that are dedicated to hyperhidrosis.
21:56🔗AdamNone that great, though, really. I went to a guy. I went to a guy. I said, what is this surgery? He basically said, oh, we're going to have to get the ribs spread around.
22:07🔗AdamYeah. You know the people that once in a while, you go into some business and you want something and they decide they don't want you to have it, so that's it? Right. Like you go in and you go, I'm thinking of, even if it means work for them, like you want something done to your car, you want something done to you, and they're already shaking their head as you're explaining it to them?
22:29🔗AdamMe neither. It's like, listen, Pops, I got a sweaty forehead. You do surgeries. How about I give you some of my money and you give me one of your surgeries and my forehead stops sweating? And you can tell it's about halfway into your explanation they're shaking their head. Yeah. Well, no. No, I don't know. It's like, what business are you in?
22:49🔗AdamYou know when doctors do that with patients, when they think the patient's a little off or they're concerned about a little bit of character logic problems, like the patient's going to not be satisfied. There's a certain, like, you get a feeling for somebody and you may have said to go. How dare you?
23:05🔗AdamI'm providing my professional medical experience.
23:07🔗AdamNow, I can tell you that the surgery to get your forehead to quit sweating, which my forehead is doing right now just talking about forehead sweat, is more involved than the one that gets your palms to quit sweating, as you could well imagine.
23:21🔗AdamOh, absolutely. But if you'd let me complete the Botox injections in your forehead.
23:24🔗AdamAre you high? You gave me 75 injections. All I did was get a whole bunch of little red dots in my head, and I sweat more than I ever did for my forehead.
23:35🔗AdamI didn't use a topical anesthetic because I thought, you know, Adam, tough guy, real man.
23:39🔗AdamYou said you're going to give me an injection of Botox. Here's the thing. Bruce has to inject every square millimeter of your forehead in order for this to work. You didn't tell me I was going to get a series of 75 shots. I thought I was getting one shot. And why would it work? You already did it. It did nothing. That's your answer?
24:02🔗AdamNo, I didn't say that because I didn't finish. It's dependent on completely covering that area.
24:50🔗AdamDr. Bruce, filming for Dr. Drew, board certified, addiction medicine, emergency medicine, tattoo removal. What can't this young spaz do? Apparently, I can't do Botox on your forehead. Yeah, no.
24:52🔗AdamYou realize I lost my teaser today. You know, I lost by one point. I lost by one point in that game that I lost by one point. There was a safety.
25:03🔗AdamThat's got there was a field goal that hit the goal post and carromed in. There's five points right there. And then there was a field goal with 40 seconds left in the game that they almost had to kick because they couldn't just take a knee. They probably would have preferred just to take a knee, but because they were only up by seven, technically, they had to get two scores ahead. Yeah, one point.
25:30🔗AdamYou wonder if those guys are sitting there knowing what the spread is in the game going, Jesus, we kicked this field goal. I think all the people are going to lose their shirts.
25:37🔗AdamDoes the thing have to hit the post and go in? Do you have to get this?
25:44🔗AdamListen, do this. I'm too devastated from the loss today. Let's you read the Cabin Fever promotion.
25:50🔗AdamIf you're 18 and over, Cabin Fever, all callers who get in the air tonight will receive a Cabin Fever DVD and will get a chance to win a trip for four to a ski vacation in Whistler. The prize will include airfare, lift tickets in a cabin. The Cabin Fever DVD will be available in stores on January 20th and the winner will be announced next Sunday, January 25th.
26:13🔗AdamWe'll give you the DVD and then your name goes into the hopper. And I like your odds, as I said to Drew, because I've only been averaging about three calls a night. And two of them have been from 12 year olds. So if you're the one person that gets on the air is older than 18, you may just walk away with this cabin.
26:31🔗AdamYou're so modest Adam. There are people lined up at pay phones all over.
26:35🔗AdamYeah. You've been to Whistler? Have you ever been to Whistler?
26:48🔗AdamYes, he is. Well, now this second, he's probably drinking a hot toddy and warming his tootsies in front of the fireplace. Yes. Why, you don't know hot toddies in Utah? I don't.
27:00🔗AdamI think you had to bring your own or something like that.
27:14🔗AdamDrew doesn't like the ephedra. There are people, dieters, who say, hey, this is help me lose weight. It's an important tool for me. I mean, they're banning ephedra, essentially. Do you think it's dangerous or not?
27:26🔗AdamEphedra is one step away as I draw. This is methamphetamine.
27:31🔗AdamWait, wait. Dr. Bruce is drawing... It's great radio. It's drawing a molecule.
27:42🔗AdamSo you draw what looks like a birdhouse and then a dash and a C and a dash and a C and a dash and then an MCH. This is the molecular breakdown?
27:53🔗AdamThis is the molecule for ephedrine right here that I drew. You got this ring and some carbons, blah, blah, blah. But you have this oxygen group down here. You cut that off, and this is what they do in these labs. It's one step, basically. They get some red phosphorus and some real strong acid. You cut off this oxygen, off this molecule. One oxygen off of there, and you've got methamphetamine.
28:15🔗AdamNo. So, two things. It's basically, when you have this molecule, when you have ephedrine, it's a little harder for this stuff to get into your brain. So some people, when they take ephedrine, they notice it speeds them up. They get a little bit of a boost off it. But to get that, you have to take a lot more. And this stuff really stimulates your blood pressure, your heart. And it's very similar.
28:37🔗AdamWhat do you think about people when they say, look, if you're healthy and you're taking the right doses, no problem?
28:43🔗AdamWell, the other point to be made about it is this does not work for weight loss.
28:49🔗AdamAnd if you look at any studies with any of the stimulants, really, people lose weight for four weeks, eight weeks, and then almost 100% of the back.
28:58🔗AdamSo, Dr. Bruce, given the molecular structure of ephedra, pow! That's impressive.
29:08🔗AdamThat's impressive. Does not translate into one ounce of Puntang, by the way, but still very impressive. Yeah, probably hurts a little, actually. Nicole? Nicole?
31:09🔗AdamHere's the thing. In general, if somebody's got a problem, a loved one, and you bring it up and they threaten to hit you, feel free to break up and head out. You're 18, you go to college, you don't have any kids, you dump them. It's real easy.
31:26🔗AdamRight. But she sounds very codependent. I mean, it's typical for somebody to stay in a relationship who's codependent and who's seeking out somebody to save. And that becomes their addiction. And so the question is, how can we help her?
31:37🔗AdamI didn't find her to have all that much credibility. So that's why I'm moving on.
31:41🔗AdamBut believe me, it's a very serious problem. It's very common. And if you do know someone who you suspect has the problem based on their behavior, eating habits, personal history, what should you do?
31:54🔗AdamWell, the problem, it's like doing an intervention sometimes, getting help for the person. They will sometimes react very aggressively against people that try to intervene. So it's sometimes going to a therapist or school counselor and getting some help and intervening is a complex problem. But never, never don't try and help.
32:27🔗Okay, a guy goes into a computer store, buys a computer, takes it back the next day, and he says when he turned it on, it wouldn't turn on, and when he opened it up it was full of potatoes. He does this, you know, a couple times, and when he finally, store manager calls the cops, turns out he was taking the parts out of the computer and returning it with full of potatoes.
32:53🔗AdamRight. What do you think? You think this is the work of a German or Floridian?
33:20🔗AdamThank you, buddy. Never, ever, ever, ever listen to Bruce again. Mental note. Mental note that I say out loud verbally. Never, ever listen to Dr. Bruce again.
33:50🔗AdamYeah. You know, when people say mental note, they really, they sort of nullify the whole mental note by their mouth moving, don't they? It's like something you could do. You could just think, you know? Right? Go ahead, Mike.
34:03🔗Dr. BruceI was just wondering, when I have sex with my girlfriend, we've been dating for about a year and a half and it takes me within like five minutes to finish.
34:15🔗Dr. BruceShe's not complaining because I stay hard and I don't like, she finishes and everything. But how can I, like, not come so fast? Is there any way?
34:24🔗AdamWell, let's see. Couple ways. Sometimes a condom can slow you down a little bit.
34:48🔗AdamMake it an hour and ten. Well, I don't know, maybe a day before. How often do you beat off?
34:57🔗Dr. BruceWell, right now, I can't really do anything with her because she's in Italy, but I beat off like twice a day right now.
35:04🔗AdamTwice a day. Good. I'd like to see that up in the four to five range.
35:08🔗AdamWe're talking about in relationship to the relationship, so rather than what your personal masturbatory history is.
35:15🔗CallerWhen we're together is probably once or twice every three days.
35:23🔗AdamOK, here's the thing, too. Here's an interesting one. There is a position. All guys have a position that's sort of their sweet spot. You know, this is the one I get off in. You get out of that position. You'll be going for a half hour until you get back into that position. You know what I mean?
35:41🔗AdamIf they maintain their erection in the other position.
35:44🔗AdamYeah, if it's a kind of thing where it's like, well, the way you have your orgasm is you get on your back and you lock your legs out and she gets on top. Don't get in that position. You get doggy style or something where your knees are bent, you're down on the floor and you're in a weird position. You do that one, I call it the ironing board against the wall position where you just, the same thing I do when I'm at the urinal. I put my forehead against the wall. I put my feet about two feet away from it. I just straighten up like a board. I just lean up against it and I don't even move. No movement. Just pow. Just like you took a plank and just leaned it against the wall.
36:17🔗AdamThat's at the urinal. Yeah. But I'm looking to come, you know, at the urinal. Yeah. That's what I do. You know, I go to the bathroom all the time. That's what I'm doing. Go ahead, Mike.
36:29🔗Dr. BruceWe've tried many positions. I mean, I've had like a two-year relationship before this and we're on one-and-a-half, a year-and-a-half now. I mean, I've looked on Kama Sutura, like websites and Cosmo and...
36:42🔗Dr. BruceI've tried every position I can look at and...
36:44🔗AdamAnd you can have an orgasm in any one of those positions?
36:47🔗Dr. BruceOh, without a doubt. The most, ten minutes.
36:51🔗AdamHere's the other part then, the sad part. I put him on hold, but he can hear me, of life, which no one tells you about. That's just you. Right. Look, people who have bad skin, they have bad skin because they have bad skin, not because they eat chocolate. Guys who come in five minutes, come in five minutes, not because they're weak emotionally, not because of their schedule, not because of anything. It's because that's what they do. That's what they do. The same way guys can hit a ball 450 feet. Some guys snore, some guys don't. Some guys are tall, and some guys are short. There ain't a whole lot you can do about this. There are things you can do to not eff it up any worse. But other than that, eh.
37:35🔗AdamYeah, sometimes the dynamics of the relationship. Yeah, but this is... You know, I... This is him. Well, there are individuals that will tell you that they were in a relationship like this, where they orgasm very quickly and then in another relationship. So you wonder maybe if the dynamics of the relationship...
37:52🔗AdamNo, he doesn't everything. He doesn't know all of them.
37:54🔗AdamRight, so he's done that. It's happened before. And then there are people that say it's because he's circumcised, which he hasn't said that he is, but...
37:59🔗AdamThere's a whole order. Here's the point. I would say try to squeeze one off an hour before that whatever. Other than that, you're having your orgasm, you're keeping your erection, she's having her orgasm. Everyone's happy.
38:12🔗AdamOr he'll get depressed. He'll be put on an SSRI and he won't be able to wear a gas mask.
38:16🔗AdamWell, you must start taking pills. You can do it pharmaceutically. Alright, we'll take a quick, but listen, everybody, I can't preach just enough. People that have big noses have big noses, people that have double chins have double chins, people with sweaty foreheads have sweaty foreheads, people with skinny legs have skinny legs, and it's not because of anything they ever did, except for being born. It really isn't.
38:39🔗AdamRight, there's a range of normal, and this is not abnormal.
38:42🔗AdamThat's right, that's right, and we're, as a society, we're obsessed with fixing things that we really can't fix that much. And blaming, by the way, the fatso's are the ones with the big noses, are the ones with the mono-brows, not myself, I'm just saying, we're looking to point a finger at people who really don't have anything to do with their condition. We'll take a quick break, we'll be right back. Yeah, it's Adam, that's Dr. Bruce, you know, if Drew were here, he'd be rapping right now.
39:21🔗AdamOh, yeah. Yeah, puppet show. You mean Crank Yankers? Crank Yankers, right. Yeah, Tuesday Nights, Comedy Central. Plug. Yeah, I don't give enough plugs. Tuesday Night, Comedy Central, Crank Yankers. And then Drew and I are going to be out at Stanford University. I'm lecturing over at Stanford. That'll be on Wednesday. If you're in the area, you can come see us. I promise I will use the F word and not just say F. I will use the entire F word. So that's always a thrill. Let me tell you kids about a little something called Cabin Fever. You got to be 18 or older to participate in this, but as Dr. Bruce mentioned earlier, all callers who get on the air tonight are going to get a DVD of Cabin Fever with all the behind the scenes and all that kind of stuff. And then you will register to win a ski vacation for Four to Whistler, which Drew says is in Canada. Yeah. Anyway, it's going to include airfare and lift tickets and the cabin, where you may be eviscerated if it's anything like a movie. I don't know why you'd want to go into a cabin after seeing it. I guess if we were giving away Jaws, we'd just drop you out in the middle of the water, right?
41:11🔗AdamActual ski. Going down the mountain, got into a little accident with another skier. Everything was fine. And then when we were trying to untangle ourselves, the person whipped their leg up. And the butt part of the ski, the back part of the ski just, pow, caught me straight in the bridge of the nose. And you know how much the face bleeds, don't you, Bruce? Blood just pouring down my face as I was making my way down the hill to the ski hospital.
41:40🔗AdamBeing a good boxer, though, you're used to that. You probably just...
41:42🔗AdamIt didn't bother me. No. It didn't bother me. Although I was a lad, I was probably 15 or 16. Never did get stitches, and that's probably why it left the scar. Yeah, well, we'll talk about that. Sometimes it's much more noticeable than others. Now, who are we talking to, Amanda? You're 20?
42:07🔗CallerOkay, here's my question. I need to clear my conscience. I was with a guy for about four years, and truthfully, he used to come in me a lot. I got pregnant in March of last year, but when I found out I was pregnant, they dated it back to a week that me and him weren't sleeping together, and I cheated on him with one guy.
42:35🔗CallerOkay, so my question is, how likely is it to get pregnant from pre-camp? Because the other guy I was with, we were only together for about a minute before he pulled out, so he didn't actually, we didn't actually have sex or orgasm.
42:48🔗AdamThat's an enthusiastic man. Oh, you mean...
43:18🔗AdamYeah. That's all right. But there could be some... Okay, so here's what we found out about the pre-cum, as we call it. With sperm. Well, they say it is, but then they came out with some stuff later that said, well, maybe not. And they didn't seem to know. Again, you're the doctor, but please shut the hell up. The... evidently some guys... maybe it varies from guy to guy, yes?
43:48🔗AdamOf course. And from how much ejaculation they've had at that time, what time of day, and how warm or cold they keep their testicles, all kinds of things, will influence the number of sperm in pre-cum.
44:00🔗AdamRight. But... So it's fair to say that some guys have more sperm in their pre-cum than others do. And we don't know which one this guy was, and this guy's definitely...
44:11🔗AdamHe's a guy with a lot of sperm in there. Yeah, and bring... you know, every girl that gets pregnant can bring that study to the abortion clinic or, you know, through a pregnancy. You just don't know. And the point is there are a lot, a lot of people that have this... it sounds like a man to surprise, to the point of wondering how this could have happened, and yet I know...
44:27🔗AdamWell, no, I think she wants to know if it's this guy's...
44:31🔗CallerYeah. I put my boyfriend through a lot, because I basically told him it was his. I didn't give him the option that it could have been another guy.
44:46🔗AdamBut this is like a radio confessional here, and you want to sort of purge yourself of guilt.
44:52🔗AdamAll right, well, let me let me say this. How about this? For anyone who feels guilty about anything they've ever done, and feels badly about something they did, instead of apologizing, why don't you go to some homeless shelter and volunteer for a day? You know, work it off.
45:10🔗AdamYou know, I mean, look, sometimes you can't repay the person that you wronged, like your boyfriend. I don't know if there's any way you can make it up to him. I don't know if you want to tell him. Right. I don't know if you should tell him. But you have a sort of karma debt to be paid, and instead of just burning calories trying to make peace with it inside your own head, once you just go down and hand out some ladle out some slop to some bearded Alkes down at Skid Row for a month, or, you know, get.
45:48🔗AdamIn the mentoring program, or go to Big Brother. Continue to feel guilt. Guilt's not bad if you address, hey, I feel guilty. Why do I feel guilty? I did something wrong. I need to do something. I either confess or make amends in some way. But it's the people that have no guilt and couldn't care less. You wish you could have some miracle cure for them so that they could suddenly have conscience and want to do something about what they did. I'm just wondering with Amanda, is she still with the guy that she cheated on or?
46:25🔗AdamWell, you're not gonna find out. Obviously, it is a little bit. We'll take a... Just shut up, will you? We'll take a break. We'll be back. Hey, everybody, it's Loveline. I'm Adam. That's Dr. Bruce. Dr. Bruce, dear, dear, dear friend of the show, filling in for Dr. Drew, by the way, who's skiing.
46:48🔗AdamMm-hmm. All right. Let's go back to the phones, phone number, 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1, Dr. Bruce, board certified addiction medicine specialist, emergency medicine specialist, also a specialist in the use of the laser for the tattoo and the skin rejuvenation, really a much better doctor than Dr. Drew.
47:11🔗AdamYeah, that's good. You know you're better than Drew. Drew doesn't know anything. I've talked to Drew a minute. I'm right whenever we get into these arguments. Drew over there, big worry ward. Somebody said Jewish mother, he's not a doctor. Stacey?
47:33🔗CallerFirst question. I recently got my nipple kissed in September, I believe it was September the 8th and I've noticed that it's healed already, but it's kind of like lactating a little bit. And I heard that women who have had kids will still lactate even after. My son is already going to be four, but it's kind of like pussing out a little bit, but it doesn't hurt like at all at all. But it's kind of like, it looks like the way breast milk does, but a bit more with a creamier substance.
48:11🔗AdamYou can lactate just from, there's a thing called prolactin that your brain produces that is the hormone that increases and causes lactation, but you can have lactation just from a little bit of stimulation or irritation of the nipple.
48:27🔗CallerAs a matter of fact, my OBGYN told me that.
48:32🔗AdamAnd then you also, there's a discharge that the nipple produces that's normal for it to be there. You may have it more or less, one person to the next. The signs of infection are redness, increased warmth, and an increasing discharge. And how long have you had this kind of a crusty discharge?
48:53🔗CallerNo, it doesn't hurt. It doesn't feel red. It doesn't feel warm. It's been doing that since September of last year.
49:10🔗AdamSo you have a normal discharge. Maybe it's blocking.
49:13🔗AdamLet me float a theory here. First off, listen, mamas, your nipple piercing days are behind you. That was before you cranked out the kid. Okay, number one. Number two, if you can take a nipple, irritate it and or stimulate it and get it to produce some milk in some cases, especially when somebody has a young child, then it stands to reason if you put a nipple piercing in it and it was rubbing against the bra or the sweater or whatever, that that could create enough stimulation or slash irritation to produce the milk, right?
49:52🔗AdamRight. If that's the situation, when you put any kind of a foreign body in or a piercing, you develop a scar tissue around it, so it just depends on how much movement there is. But yeah, absolutely right. I was thinking the same thing when she was talking.
50:12🔗AdamI wouldn't worry about an infection, although having not seen it, I should never say that, but remove the rings is what I would do. Because like you said, mama. Yeah, she's a mom.
50:23🔗AdamTake the ring out for the kid gets a shot of it and you freak them out. Someone wants to hear praise on me. Will?
51:38🔗AdamNow, if you want to read a magazine in your cell and you have a reading light, can you just do that for an hour?
51:45🔗CallerWell, yeah, you know, you can actually, you actually don't have to turn, you know, they turn out the lights in the units, you know, in the cells the lights have to be on because they still have to do two more accounts.
51:57🔗CallerThen about 1130 they shut out, they shut off your main lights in your cell and you still have the security lights.
52:03🔗AdamWill, did you suffer any retribution for being an Adam Carolla fan while in prison? I mean, were there any persecutions?
52:08🔗CallerWell, actually, you'd be surprised how many of them are. I mean, everyone's walking around going good times, bad times, you know.
52:13🔗AdamRight. I was sort of a rhetorical question on my part is I suspected that that, not that you're in that element necessarily, but that maybe the more criminal element would have Adam for a role model. That's what I thought.
52:37🔗CallerWell, you see, I was actually driving through Oregon. Me and my girlfriend and we were actually kind of doing a little scenic route. I was actually heading to my mom's house up in Montana. And we stopped at this bar and, you know, to have some lunch. Actually, it's more like a late dinner, but close enough. And my girlfriend was heading to the bathroom and this drunk little guy started mouthing off to her, said something that she didn't like. She never actually told me what he said. And she slapped him across the face. So he pulled out this, like, boot knife or whatever the hell it was, started coming at her.
53:21🔗CallerWell, no. I mean, I knocked him unconscious. But, you know, I mean, he stabbed me, like, three times. I had, like, stitches on my hand. And I got, like, a cut on my wrist.
53:29🔗AdamThis is what happened in Con Air, by the way. I don't know if they show that film on a movie night.
53:37🔗CallerWell, no, actually not. It would be funny if they showed it as a prison theme.
53:41🔗AdamNothing but prison theme, where there's caged heat and concrete jungle and all those, like, great escape...
53:47🔗CallerThose are beautiful, beautiful films, by the way...
53:48🔗Adam.all those great escape movies and the lockdown and all that stuff. Now, here's the thing. You must have had some priors, Will.
53:56🔗CallerWell, you see, Oregon has this fun thing called mandatory minimums, you know, measure 11.
54:02🔗CallerAnd they felt that they were giving me a slap on the wrist by giving me five years rather than 70 or 90 months. Right. Because they said I was so much bigger than him that I could have just disarmed him, and then I could have stopped hitting him before he was rendered unconscious.
54:19🔗AdamRight. Well, maybe they had a point. But the point is, is he pulled a knife on your woman and you jumped in and you had no weapon?
55:04🔗AdamYeah, if you like gay porn. If you love gay porn, you're going to love John Woo. Lots of shots of guys with their shirts off walking in slow motion down tarmacs with the heat rising up above it. Yeah, it's good jacking if you're a gay guy. It's great. Oh, yeah, face off, broken arrow. Great. Some of the most expensive gay porn I've seen in the theaters.
55:34🔗AdamOh, that sucks. That stuff's crap. Well, here's what I like. Here's what they have to do. We haven't talked about this in a while, but it's Sunday night. I'm going to move to Gab. Bad movie making, which is this happens every once in a while. Guy has to go to prison, but yet somehow he's the hero. So how do you make this guy go to prison? He's our hero. Well, here's how you do it. He shows up at some bar, he says he's going to get his old lady, just wants to leave. Some bikers surround him. People tell him, you're not going anywhere. He makes the announcement, I don't want any trouble. He tries to walk out in the parking lot. The biker gives the famous, you found trouble, lunges at him with a knife. Next thing you know, he turns the knife on the guy and the guy lands on it. Then it's the judge's gavel. Murder won! And then you're sitting around going, well, how'd this guy get murder when everyone in the bar heard him announce he didn't want any trouble and walk outside and then the biker followed him with his stiletto. And now he's going in the joint. What they really ought to do, what they really ought to do, if they were ballsy enough, is make the guy a human being, have him get drunk at the bar, drive home like in the rain, and clip some kid on a bicycle. Now you got vehicular manslaughter, now you're going in the joint. You see, that makes you a human being.
57:06🔗AdamIf you like gay porn, you're going to love John Woo. That's what he does. He does a lot of guys walking in slow motion with no shirts on. Listen, I don't know if John Woo is gay. Anderson, he has to be, doesn't he?
57:22🔗CallerI don't know what I've been saying. He's Asian, that's all I know.
57:26🔗AdamHe must have some sort of fetish for the American male actors or something. He's got to be gay, because who else would have the idea? Hey, fellas, everyone, take your shirts off. Yeah, now rub yourself down with Vaseline. Now, walk in slow motion. Oh, no, wait a minute, we'll slow it down. You just walk. And put the reflective cop glasses on, too. I'm going to beat off to that when I get home.
57:46🔗CallerIt's funny you say gay porn, because I've been saying that about that guy for a long time. If you were to play his entire films, like, in regular motion without the slow motion, they'd be like maybe 50 minutes long.
57:55🔗AdamYeah. I don't know. What are all the John Woo movies, Anderson, beside John?
57:58🔗CallerLike Hard Boiled, Face Off, Broken Arrow. What was his last one?
58:04🔗AdamThey took the guy's face. See, Bruce, it's like if you took my face and you cut it off me and you put it on engineer Chris, he could go home and eff my wife. She would never know.
58:15🔗CallerI walked out of the movie on the third ending.
58:19🔗AdamYou took Anderson's face, you put it on mine, I could go back to his apartment and beat off? I gotta work that out. The point is, you're not gonna take Bruce's face and put it on my face and then he's gonna go home and my wife's gonna be like, Oh, do you have a tough guy? Oh, that Bruce was a pain in the ass. Please. This man makes gay porn. Let somebody stop John Woo from making movies, please.
59:03🔗AdamYeah, I think Paycheck is just more slow motion gay porn. Look into John Woo, Anderson, find out if he likes the fellas, because it's all gonna come into focus for me if he's into the last.
59:14🔗AdamThat's gonna be great for Anderson's career.
59:23🔗CallerOkay, I'm having a problem figuring out if I'm gay or not. I had a recent boyfriend who got irritated with me because I wouldn't want to have sex with him when he wanted to, and just when I do it, it just seems disgusting.
59:40🔗AdamAll right. Well, we ever molested or raped or anything?
1:00:21🔗AdamYeah. You know what a big shot I am now when they shove stuff... If you're in the Los Angeles area and you go into a gas station, you want to buy stuff, they have to ram it into a drawer, through a slot, or something like that. It's a great message to send society that we'll just deal with everyone through 3-inch thick, ballistic glass. But I'm such a big shot, I'll leave the nickel in the slot as I walk away. Know what I'm saying? Not the quarters. I'm big time. Oh, hell no. Not the quarters. But you're... Wait, where is she calling from? You're calling from Baltimore?
1:00:56🔗AdamYou got that thick glass in front of you? Good.
1:01:00🔗CallerI like dealing with the people. I don't like having the glass there. So it's kind of weird for me. I'm used to working in the deli and stuff and dealing with people and talking to them.
1:01:08🔗AdamSure. Alright, so listen here, Jennifer. You've been through a lot. Right. And when you've been through as much as you've been through, it's really hard to tell what you would have been because you've been changed so much by these horrible life altering events. So you will be confused, to say the least. Now what you've got to do is get some therapy or some counseling or join a group or something and work out some of this stuff because there's no way you can get through what you've been through without a little help. Right.
1:01:40🔗AdamAnd paradoxically, without a lot of work and help, you're going to find a guy that's going to be a victimizer like these men were in your life. And naturally you're going to feel more comfortable with a nurturing woman, but that's probably not where the healthy relationship is going to lie. So until you really, it's a long process and it's a lot of work and it's painful, but if you get some therapy and you understand what you have to do and what the issues are, it takes time, but just to move into a gay relationship with that kind of a history, it's not going to be successful either.
1:02:13🔗AdamSpeaking of gay relationship, you see that kind of air?
1:02:20🔗AdamI don't know how come no reviewer ever describes these flaming turds known as John Woo movies as gay porn, but it seems blatantly obvious through the same straight heterosexuals that are watching the movies.
1:02:58🔗AdamBut we got Face Off, which is again, like I said, the premise. All they got to do is cut your face off, lay it over my face, and then I can go to the prison and do tattoo removal. No questions asked. You put my face onto your head, you go home and ask my wife.
1:03:39🔗CallerOkay, I got a tattoo a couple years ago. And the guy who did it, it wasn't done at a shop, but he was a professional. He had all the equipment and stuff. And when he did it, it's all splotchy, and he missed some spots. And he just used blue and green, and I wanted color, but he didn't want to use color since it was free. And I want it removed. So I need to know how much it's going to cost, and if there's any problems, I'll leave a big scar or anything like that.
1:04:14🔗CallerIt's on the left-hand side, kind of in my groin, kind of hip area. I don't know how to describe it. It's down by my hip, kind of.
1:04:21🔗AdamWell, I've got a mental picture of it. But okay, don't do the same thing with the removal that you did with getting the tattoo. You know, the guys are professional, but...
1:04:41🔗AdamWell, seriously, the lasers that are used today for tattoo removal are very safe. The downside is it takes time. You have it done once every four to eight weeks, and it's an average of eight sessions. Right. Now, your chances of scarring are related to your chances of scarring from anything that disrupts the skin. If you've had stitches before, most people don't have a problem with scarring with tattoo removal. It's very rare, unless, again, the operator doesn't know what he's doing. But the areas that are the most sensitive are generally the breast, the outer arms.
1:05:19🔗AdamAre there tattoo removal, laser tattoo removals in every city now?
1:05:27🔗AdamOpen the phone book. You know, seeing a board certified internist or dermatologist or plastic surgeon, interestingly enough, the majority of these type of lasers are sold to family practitioners, general practitioners, and interns.
1:05:40🔗AdamWhat do these things run, the procedure? Per session? Per square inch? What do they go by?
1:05:47🔗AdamBoth ways. They're done both ways. In our area here, and generally, it goes about, for a square inch area, each treatment is going to run about $7,500. Two square inches, $100, $150.
1:06:52🔗AdamWell, I don't think so, because it's not how powerful a laser is.
1:06:56🔗AdamI know, but as more people get lasers, the market will be saturated. Bruce hopes not. He wants to be the only guy in town with the magical laser. So here's the thing. It's not cheap, but the old way of removing a tat used to be just to cut it out. I would see guys who had a scar on the side of their arm that really looked like they were burned badly. And it would be like, what the hell happened? I got my tat removed.
1:07:26🔗AdamRight. Well, there were lasers that were almost like Star Wars continuous beam lasers where you'd hit the ink and the skin and everything would go. And you'd have an actual wound.
1:07:36🔗AdamI'm talking about 15, 20 years ago. They would just cut it out or something.
1:07:56🔗AdamMaybe we should give her a better one. Let's talk about... Oh, this is a great one. We have a gal that's feeling really guilty because she hooked up with her boyfriend. That sounds normal to me. That's not very exciting either.
1:08:54🔗AdamYeah, those aren't amongst his credits.
1:08:57🔗AdamI think you and Anderson are this sort of phobia of seeing men's naked upper bodies on film. Everybody's gay. That's-
1:09:05🔗AdamNo, I'm just- I'm personally tired of really crappy movies like Face Off that people think are decent movies. They're so far-fetched that they just become ridiculous. I don't know how you're supposed to-
1:09:24🔗AdamSo, far-fetched is obviously a very nebulous definition.
1:09:28🔗AdamWell, here's the thing. I can't tell you that 500 years from now there's not going to be some sort of machine thing that goes bad. I can tell you that when Jim Carrey's kid makes a wish that he can't lie anymore at a birthday party, that's not going to prevent Jim Carrey from lying. I can't tell you what's going to be going on 500 years from now or whenever the future was. Maybe it's 50 years from now. But just like, I'm sure people the turn of the century could have never pictured commercial airplanes doing what they do now.
1:10:06🔗AdamHow about the commercial airplane in Con Air flying down the Las Vegas Strait?
1:10:36🔗CallerYeah, and I'm just wondering if it's a normal thing, is it normal for me to be bothered by it? It's not the masturbation that bothers me, it's the pornography that bothers me.
1:10:48🔗AdamNow, is it that he's looking and being sort of eroticizing other women this way in his mind? Alright, well, we'll figure this out in one second. Have you, let's see, were you ever exposed to any pornography when you were younger?
1:11:09🔗CallerWhen I was younger? No, not before my time or anything, no.
1:11:14🔗AdamAlright, did your dad cheat on your mom or was he a bad dad?
1:11:21🔗AdamDo you come from a family where there are a lot of, you go to church, is there a moral value system that would judge pornography as wrong or bad?
1:11:31🔗AdamSo it's some, but when you guys, when you and your boyfriend are having sex, you ever watch pornography or anything like that?
1:11:40🔗CallerWe have, maybe twice, and that was after I found out that he was watching it, and I thought, okay, well, I feel more comfortable if we were to watch it together. And that I was all right with. And he had told me he wasn't going to watch it anymore. And then I found out about a month ago that he was, and he had been lying to me about it for like over a year.
1:12:00🔗AdamYeah, well, look, okay, here's the deal. No guy is, I don't know, how old is your boyfriend?
1:12:09🔗AdamIt is physically impossible for him to stop watching porn. That ship has sailed on the Scrotum Sea a long time ago. The barn doors are open. The balls are out of the barn. I don't know what other cliché I can destroy. But the point is, is there's no going back. Not at 20. It's impossible. Now, if you're the kind of person who says, you know, I'm uncomfortable with this, then he'll do what any logical guy who's obviously can't stop watching the pornography is going to do. He'll say, OK, I'll stop. And then he'll do it until your car pulls up in the driveway, in which case he'll stop. This is what guys do. And by the way, this is what everybody does who's doing something that they rationalize is not hurting their spouse or them. And this is sort of, I'm going to keep the relationship running smooth. And I know you take it as disrespectful, but this is just what any guy would do. Ninety-nine percent of guys would do this.
1:13:12🔗CallerOK, so is it normal for me to be bothered by it, though? Or should I not be?
1:13:17🔗AdamThis is classic. And in many, you know, just as Adam says, it's universal that guys are going to want to look at porn. And if it bothers the girlfriend, hide it even more. It's just as universal for women to be initially at least threatened by the porn or want their boyfriends to stop. Now, I have to say that there are individuals that develop an addiction to porn. It becomes like a drug. And any kind of sexual activity, whether it's with another person or with pornography, in which it's used to stimulate a certain part of the brain, if it's something that you do for a certain kind of thrill, it can develop into an addiction.
1:13:58🔗CallerRight, because he says it's not the girls, it's just a different kind of thing. Like our sex is stinky. I know there's no problem there.
1:14:09🔗AdamShe's had to drop the F word. Okay, here's what I'm getting at. I put her on hold. I've not spoken to any women on this show that once you trace it back a little bit, there's not some issue involving exploitation or men or something that creeps in. And Janelle doesn't seem as caught up or as angry as many of our callers are. Janelle. No use in profanity. Okay, so I just want to make sure you love your dad, you were never molested, you don't have any issues. You were molested. Who molested? Your cousin. How old were you?
1:15:19🔗CallerWell, I told eventually it kind of got out because it happened with another one of my cousins. And so it eventually got out and my parents knew and it was dealt with by family. He was basically forced to seek help before he was considered part of the family again.
1:15:35🔗AdamYeah, so that's pretty traumatic. And there is, I was about to say, usually there's feelings of exploitation that creep in here and you were exploited by this criminal. But look, here's the thing, Janelle. Your boyfriend will lie if you put him in a position to lie. It's disrespectful. You're not going to get him to stop. Put it this way. If he's a good boyfriend and he's present with you and he's good when you're making love and everything's fine, then let him do whatever he wants. If you feel like this is hurting your relationship other than the part where you told him to stop and he didn't, then make an issue out of it. What do you say to that?
1:16:25🔗AdamYeah, I think really she needs to come to terms with it. And I think the part about there's some, what of a universality in terms of men masturbating, fantasizing, and in some cases using pornography, I think for her to accept that and then look at what's going on in the relationship. If all of a sudden she says, okay, you know, it's none of my business what you do, but she's looking at the quality of the relationship. If things start to move away from the intimacy between them and he's more and more into the pornography, then there's an issue. And we're not sure that's not the case.
1:16:58🔗AdamAll right. Stop busting us balls. And listen, if you got molested when you're 12 by your 20-something-year-old cousin, a little therapy would be nice.
1:17:09🔗AdamWell, I'd assume she had therapy when it was... We never know. She sounds fairly well-adjusted. She sounds like she wants to know what's going on.
1:17:25🔗AdamWhy do you have a 14-year-old girlfriend?
1:17:29🔗Dr. BruceWell, she's really, really mature. And she see no problem with it, and I see no problem with it. Our friends...
1:17:37🔗AdamWell, here's the problem. You know, when you ask an 8th grader if they have a problem with something, they don't have a problem with a lot of things that adults have problems with. That's why they're called minors.
1:17:52🔗AdamIf she seems comfortable with sex and seems real mature, it means that she's had sexual abuse.
1:18:01🔗AdamBut here's the thing, why stop the party? You know, I mean her uncle, a molester, why not young Brian slide in and keep the train a-rollin?
1:18:12🔗AdamUnfortunately, you're in the situation where by any standard you're an abuser. You're a perpetrator. And you're in a bad situation because I assume it's illegal in Oklahoma for a 14-year-old. There's no consensual sex of 14. Well, I guess maybe there isn't.
1:19:36🔗AdamOh, man. That's going to be a good day. So now you got her pregnant. Now here's the thing. Here's the thing that borders on retardism, Brian, which is you're taking a big enough chance at banging a 14-year-old when you're 22, but doing it without protection. Aren't you just asking for trouble?
1:19:53🔗Dr. BruceWell, I used protection, but evidently it did not work. I used the condom and the instructions aren't exactly hard, so I'm pretty sure I did it right.
1:20:06🔗AdamAll right, well now it says up here that her dad's a cop.
1:20:10🔗Dr. BruceYes, and her dad's a cop and he kind of scares me a lot, and I don't think he really knows that we were going out, but we've been going out for a long time. They thought we were just really good friends, and I mean, I've always, you know, we've always been just messing around, really, we've never really had sex, we just, you know, mess around and stuff, and like I'll have clothes over there all the time, and her mom is like really religious, and I think she trusted me too much. I think she's kind of naive.
1:20:44🔗AdamWho trusted you too much? Her mom. Alright, hold on a second. There's an air of boguosity here, but on the other hand, it's religious mom and cop dad, and let me tell you, cops are nuts. They are nutty. Now listen, I know we got a lot of cops that listen to the show, and God bless you, you're doing the Lord's work, except for when you hand out the chicken ass tickets. You know who you are. Please, for Christ's sake, is that why you signed up? So you can just hand out the candy ass, chicken ass tickets?
1:21:18🔗AdamWell, Brian's going to have a much bigger problem than a chicken ass ticket. He's going to have a gun up his...
1:21:23🔗AdamYeah, but cops are nutty guys. They're almost criminals. They just want that. That's the way they went. It's just like, here's how cops and criminals work. You know, the guys that are the gay bashers who are ultra-religious right-wing, or the guys that just like to go out and go into a fag bar and kick some ass on a weekend? Turns out when they hook the two-messence monitors up to these guys, Pepe's, and show them gay erotica, they're like John Woo. They get excited. You see what I'm saying? Yeah. So they're a little closer than they thought, and sometimes that's what causes you to do whatever. It's a very simple psychological equation. A lot of cops could have been on the other end of their billy club quite easily.
1:22:06🔗AdamOf course, there are people, I mean the same thing with ministers and people that you attack as being Christian.
1:22:13🔗AdamThey're still doing good work. Except for the chicken-ass tickets. But they're doing good work and fine. That's good. That's taking an impulse that says I could easily be a criminal, but instead, I'm going the other way.
1:22:25🔗AdamAlright. That does not mean that Young Brian will not get a, you know. Cops, by the way, and I don't know if you can take the law into your own hands when you are the law, but they will, they'll do that on occasion too.
1:22:53🔗Dr. BruceI mean, I just work at a parts store. I really don't have a lot of money. And if her mom ever found out about that, I'm pretty sure she'd disown her because she's real religious. But if we don't get it, then that crazy nut of a dad that she has is going to start to notice stuff of the growing. Yeah, and then he'll probably come hunt me down or something.
1:23:17🔗AdamSomething... This is bogus. I ain't buying it. I ain't buying it.
1:23:37🔗AdamI'm not Brian. It's not the story that I don't buy. It's Brian I don't buy.
1:23:42🔗AdamWell, let's just hypothetically say this is going on. First of all, she needs to get into therapy. She needs to see a doctor. He's going to be in the hospital. It's not just being pregnant like anybody else is pregnant, it's a high-risk situation.
1:23:55🔗AdamYeah. So medically, because 14, your body's not ready to be pregnant and you can have complications of pregnancy that you wouldn't get in later.
1:24:03🔗AdamWell, she needs to get medical care right away. I don't know how far along she is, but...
1:24:08🔗AdamHe works at Auto Parts Store. He's going to make her drink Prestone.
1:24:13🔗AdamYeah. Well, no Prestone, no hangers. So, Brian, has she gotten to... Well, yeah, but... At 14, I don't know. She needs to get to a health professional. An OBGYN, a family practitioner, some entree into the health care system.
1:24:33🔗AdamYou have a Planned Parenthood somewhere around there. Open the phone book, find Planned Parenthood and go down there. Take it from there.
1:24:42🔗AdamYeah, because if this is really happening, you know, there are very serious issues. You're going to have to deal with, in your life, you've done something that you obviously don't have the ability to comprehend the full scope of what's happened, what you've done. And I'm more concerned with her. And she, you have fears about the pregnancy in terms of her getting kicked out of the house, very unrealistic understanding of the situation. She needs to see somebody like tomorrow that's a professional, a counselor, somebody that will know where to steer her.
1:25:13🔗AdamWhat do you sell at the auto parts store, Brian?
1:25:16🔗Dr. BruceAll kinds of parts, any parts that anybody needs. But I don't make a lot of money for doing it. And I don't know how much do these planned pregnancies usually cost.
1:25:27🔗AdamJust go down to Planned Parenthood and ask them what you should do.
1:25:33🔗AdamIt does have an average cost because your butt is going to be in jail. If this is true, you're going to go to jail, buddy. And she needs medical care. It's like, you know, what if she were bleeding right now or she were unconscious, would you be sitting there? Well, should I call 9-1-1 or should I get a TRW first?
1:26:02🔗AdamWe'll be right back after this. Hey, it's Loveline, I'm Adam, that's Dr. Bruce. Dr. Bruce filling in for Dr. Drew. One last quick plug for this Cabin Fever. DVD is coming out on the 20th of January. That's Tuesday, this Tuesday, by the way. And here's the deal, you call in the show, you're 18 years of age or older, and you get on the air, and we give you a DVD. And then once we give you the DVD, your name goes into the hopper. And then what happens? Well, what happens is, in a couple of weeks, I reach into the hopper, and I pull my cousin's name out, that I already put, because I put his name in there. And then, oh, Ann's telling me to stop talking. Yeah, yeah. Good thing we got that dry erase board for Ann.
1:27:01🔗AdamIt doesn't matter because I'm going to get the tickets from him. I'm just giving him a couple, he's a junkie, actually. I'm just going to give my quick hit a horse. And then I'm going to take the things and I'm going to Whistler Canada, which Drew, who's a skiing expert, Drew loves skiing so much, guess where he is right now? That's right. And I, you know, what do I love? I love the kids. I love helping. He loves skiing. I love help-ing.
1:27:31🔗AdamThat's why I don't know where Whistler is, but Drew knows it well.
1:27:34🔗AdamYeah, you know where the auto show is and you know.
1:27:37🔗AdamHow dare you? The point is, is that we'll give you four tickets and you go the airfare, you go to the cabin, you get the lift tickets, you go to Whistler, you sit there in the cabin and wait to be slaughtered by whatever killed the kids in the cabin fever. So got that coming up. Shiva.
1:28:14🔗CallerEvery time we hook up, like do, you know, oral sex or something, well, like I'll be really into it while we're doing it. Like I'll encourage it and I'll go along with it, but like after he leaves or, you know, just an hour later, I'll feel really disgusted and I won't want to talk to him for like a couple of days.
1:28:53🔗AdamNow, do you have some sort of a moral value system? You grew up in a religious system which says that you shouldn't be sexually active before marriage type of thing?
1:29:11🔗AdamSo listen. Here's the deal. What's that mean, mom? Hippie parents. That's always trouble. Listen. Here's why you feel. There's two reasons you feel guilty. One is you feel like you're compromising yourself. The other reason is you feel like the guy ain't really that into you and maybe you're just appeasing him to keep him around. Is there any situation like that going on?
1:29:35🔗CallerNo, not at all. That's not it. I don't even really feel guilty. I just like grossed out. I don't know.
1:29:45🔗Adam16. Here's the thing then. Give it a break. Don't do it for a month. See what happens. See how you feel. See if you miss it. See how he feels. I hate to cut the guy off, but if you're 15, you're on the cusp, you're performing oral sex, maybe it is a little bit young. Maybe you ought to just walk away for a few weeks and see how you feel.
1:30:09🔗AdamYeah. I know I won't get very far with this statement, but...
1:30:13🔗AdamSex is not a recreational sport, as I have mentioned in the past. You're better off going with your intuition. Something is telling you you're not ready for this or it's just not right at this point in your life. A lot of teenagers when they're 14, 15, 16, aren't ready to have sex and it's not something that benefits them. It's not something that enhances a relationship. Sex is not a recreational sport.
1:30:37🔗AdamThat must have been an expert in the field. Yeah.
1:30:40🔗AdamAn expert could be out in the field if he doesn't shut up. You had your man. Madden. Yes. Oh, sorry. Hey, what's happening? Listen, sorry to put you on so late. You've been on hold for 80 minutes. Blame Dr. Bruce. Your dad is an alcoholic. Where's my bourbon? And you want to know if you're likely to be one as well.
1:31:02🔗Yeah, he's an alcoholic ever since I've been born and my little brother, which is 14, he is like already drinking at his friend's house.
1:32:16🔗AdamIt's what they call them in high school. Yeah, I do miss it. Punch it one time, just because I missed Drew. Yeah, nice headbutt. All right. So tomorrow night, Stephen Baldwin will be in here from Celebrity Mole telling us all about who he hates. And until next time, this is Adam Carolla for Dr. Bruce saying mahalo.
1:32:38🔗If this is true, you're going to go to jail, buddy.
