1:02🔗VoiceoverHey everybody, it's Loveline, I'm Adam. That's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Dr. Drew, board certified physician, addiction medicine specialist. And tonight, I want to welcome back to the show, James Marsters from, well, let's see, Angel, and the Vampire Slayer and Spike. I don't know if any, is there any character that's gone from one series to the next? I mean, there's been on evening.
1:51🔗James MarstersWell, they all got their own shows, whereas like I didn't.
1:54🔗AdamThat's what we're saying. That's a mark of distinction. Somebody has to have the record for least strikeouts in a thousand innings pitch. You know what I'm saying?
2:09🔗DrewIt's better being the second most in anything. Right.
2:13🔗AdamWell, but by the way, who the hell would guess that you'd be doing Spike and doing a character on one network and one TV show and then sort of slide into another TV show?
2:28🔗James MarstersI absolutely never thought. I thought that I was going to come down here and work really hard and humiliate myself for a little tiny bit amount of money and then leave and go back to theater. I never saw this coming at all.
2:41🔗AdamSo the run, the Spike run, are we on year seven or something? What year are we on? Seven? Yeah. Drew, what are you nodding like you knew?
2:51🔗DrewI saw six here on Buffy and I knew this new year was an angel.
2:56🔗AdamOh really? Oh Drew, I didn't even see that. You see, that was just my own cat-like sense.
3:01🔗DrewIt's because you, I know it was pretty good, I thought. All that whiny about being in South Pasadena today, filming your Martha Stewart show. But by the way, my kid's baseball dime is right off Los Robles.
3:15🔗James MarstersYou're working with Martha, huh?
3:17🔗AdamI was, you know, it's, it's goddamn television. I'm hosting some thing for ABC that's not airing for a month and we won't get into it yet because we gotta talk about Angel. But the two one-hour specials about sort of crowning the next Martha Stewart book deals and so on and so forth. So I'm at the beginning and I'm like, well, what should we do at the top? Well, this is the heir apparent to Martha Stewart. No, we can't, we can't mention her name. We cannot, we can't bring her name up. That's, you know, we talked to the lawyers. We're not be able to bring her name up. I said, all right, well, what if we do this? You know, as you know, there's quite a void to be filled in this particular, you know, a particular someone is having some trouble and there's just some mighty big shoes to fill. No, no, we can't, we can't elude. We can't elude to her.
4:15🔗AdamYeah, I'm like, first off, the whole reason eluding was invented was so you could elude. You understand? I mean, the essence of eluding is nullified by not being able to elude.
4:30🔗AdamEluding was invented because you could not mention the other thing. Now we're going to have to elude to the eluders.
4:38🔗DrewI mean, what do we, you know, I'm like, and by the way, but by the way, isn't the show an illusion to her? Isn't eluding just by virtue what you're doing?
4:50🔗AdamAll I'm saying is, is I'm like going, I'm not going to say we need to fill the shoes of the smelly skank who may possibly do some time for, you know, a Rico act or something.
5:06🔗AdamJust saying, yes, the queen has stepped down. She's advocated the throne and now we're going to need someone else to step up and take the step there.
5:15🔗James MarstersCan you say Arthur Mayweard Steyer or something?
5:18🔗AdamYeah, you can only do the pig Latin, Martha Stewart. So it was fantastic. And you know, me, it's like, I'm always like this. I start arguing for 10 seconds and then it's like, let's just move forward here. Let's cut our losses. Why don't we get paid? What's going on? Anyway, it was a good times over there in Drew's hometown of Pasadena. Angel is on Wednesday nights, nine o'clock on the www, And watch because they've been kicking our butts for the last four episodes of the season are good. Oh yeah.
5:51🔗AdamNow the last episode is May 19th. So that's it and now let's see, I'm reading here that we're going, hmm. What's up? Are they taking the show off the air?
6:05🔗James MarstersYeah, they totally are, man. They canceled us.
6:08🔗AdamBut we gotta start a letter writing campaign, right?
6:10🔗James MarstersThey did, they did. They had people, some people were driving around with a billboard downtown. They were selling chocolate bars. NPR did a thing on it. They did like a segment on Save the Angel on Morning Edition.
6:33🔗AdamHad a show that was on for a couple of seasons. Got moved around a lot, got booted off and then the fans sort of brought it back and now they're going back to work on it.
6:43🔗James MarstersYeah, well, they're already talking about other like movies and television movies and stuff with the characters and stuff. So the thing's not dead at all. But sorry, right into my, yeah, they're already talking about other projects with the characters and but I think right now that Angel Series is gonna be gone.
7:09🔗James MarstersAnd my manager thinks I'm gonna be a big leading man star and he wants me to do that and I think I might try that but I also think I might just be a character actor.
7:18🔗AdamYou've been, your hair almost looks the consistency of mine, Drew.
7:23🔗James MarstersYeah, I was just gonna say, I've got exactly like your, yeah, yeah, yeah.
7:56🔗James MarstersYeah, I remember feathered hair. I wanted that so badly. It's like, I used to think if I could find the right brush or the right comb, that that would be the mail order for these weird brushes.
8:09🔗DrewGod, were we sick in those days? I think what they did to kids in the 70s, they destroyed them.
8:14🔗AdamLet me tell you who, based on my hair, I looked like, remember the principal in Room 222? Since there was a character actor, had hair that just, it just looked like you would pull one off and it would snap like a twig, you know? I mean, when you take curly, thick, nappy Sicilian hair and you try to comb it, it looks like kindling.
8:37🔗DrewAnd by the way, what was the matter with the people that cut hair in those days? Why didn't they just say, hey, hey?
8:41🔗AdamAll right, let me just tell you goddamn snot-nosed kids something and how good you have it. Here's the thing that you kids can do. First off, you wear your hair any way you want to wear your hair. If you're a white dude and you want cornrows, so be it. If you want dreads, so be it. If you want to go clean shaven, so be it. I mean, when has there ever been a time in history where one dude had cornrows and he was getting tail, the other dude had dreads, he was getting tail, and the other guy was flat bald and was getting tail. When did this hit? Buzz cut, crew cut, rockabilly, whatever you want. Wherever, here's the point. Your hair, it's like a river. Whatever direction it flows, fine. But in our day, it all had to head one direction. Farrah Fawcett.
9:30🔗CallerYeah, that was the direction I had to go.
9:31🔗James MarstersBut the guys looked like Farrah too from behind. That was a problem.
9:53🔗AdamWhat if somebody just, and listen to me, you kiddies, what if someone just showed up at your school one day and said, look, here's the look, here's the hair, here's the attitude, here's the whole thing. It's disco, it's feathered, it's this and that. And you were like, yeah, I have a huge ass. It's not gonna look good in those tight jeans. I don't care, pack it in, fat ass. Well, my hair, it's thick, it's nappy, it's not gonna, nope, get a hot comb then and cry me a river.
10:19🔗James MarstersBut that's, yeah, but we've broken out of that. I remember, remember when the wet head got dead?
10:46🔗Hi, I have a question for you guys tonight. I was curious about the effects of Viagra on women.
10:56🔗DrewWell, it turned out they've looked at that rather carefully and there's some effect, there's not nothing, but for the most part, it's not much. And it certainly doesn't seem to do anything to desire or drive. It can do a little bit for arousal, but the research showed that women have separate mechanisms for arousal and drive. For men, if you create arousal, you get, you know, coming to go to action.
11:19🔗AdamIf you want, if you pump, if you can figure out a way to, you know, dilate the blood vessels and get some blood down to the hunker, then you're going to get a sex drive out of that guy.
11:31🔗DrewIt's a call to action. Absolutely. Men are at that point driven towards orgasm at that moment. For women, no such thing. No such thing. They, in fact, don't even have drive. They'll have some arousal. They'll describe arousal, but they won't have any interest in that.
11:48🔗DrewAs a guy, it's hard to understand that. It's almost impossible to understand.
11:51🔗AdamBut doesn't it have to get them half a step closer to the desire part to feel?
11:56🔗DrewApparently not. The desire needs to come first. And for women, the desire part requires candles and conversation and things. And it's different. It's very different for women. So, Kaylin, the vagabond is not likely to do too much.
12:10🔗AdamBut women are also very pliable emotionally. You give them a child's aspirin and tell them it's a horny pill and they might just go for it.
12:18🔗DrewAre you having a problem with sex drive?
12:23🔗I'm willing to experiment or whatever, but I'm just curious about any negative effects, like on your reproductive system or anything like that.
12:30🔗DrewNo, not that we know of. Are you on any medication now?
12:56🔗AdamSo it's whatever it's doing to the vessels in your the dork is doing to the one in your heart.
13:01🔗DrewRight. And the nitric oxide in the brain seems to get affected too. So we really don't know the long-term effects. So for a healthy person to use it may not be a great idea. We just don't know.
13:36🔗Well, I got tested for everything and my doctor asked me if I ever had cold sores before and I told her no, which she was a little surprised by my answer.
13:46🔗DrewThose are fairly worthless for herpes. They're very poorly predictive. So just don't worry about it. If you don't have it, you don't have it.
13:54🔗DrewI don't know. I think for a while there it was the thing to do and then it was sort of proven to be very poorly predictive of some, it has to be used in a situation sort of a confirmation where you really, high level of suspicion that it can be useful. But in just as a random screen, it's worthless.
14:09🔗So I'm curious, like, do I still need to worry, like, if about-
14:15🔗DrewHere's the deal, Angie. Essentially everybody has been exposed to herpes type 1 in their mouth or somewhere. So yeah, you're like everybody else. Now, can you transmit it? Well, yeah, if you're having oral sex with somebody, possibly you could, like everybody else. But if you don't have an outbreak, it's highly unlikely.
15:29🔗AdamYeah. Good times there, baby doll. Yeah. TGIFNF, because I got to work Saturday and Sunday. I'm pre-miserable. I'm now pre-miserable. I got to work. Tomorrow, Friday? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, tomorrow. Well, you call it Friday. I call it Wednesday. Yeah. Yeah. Do you have a reason for that?
16:00🔗AdamSaturday's a double call, too, which is like show up at 10, you wrap you out at 3, and then I'll need you back at 6, like kind of things like that. So I may be coming over Saturday, Drew.
16:35🔗AdamWe just like, you know, it's like Chris fell asleep. Chris fell asleep in his car on the side of the highway, and I was a cop who just came up, tap my ring on the window, and then shine a flashlight in there. Picture him sort of leaning back, half of Mickey's big mouth falling over and said, hey man, what's going on?
17:06🔗AdamWe haven't talked about this in a while, but I always like when they get real wordy about stuff. What I'm going to need you to do right now, please, to step out of the vehicle. Okay, go ahead for me. It's like, how about saying out of the car? You have 28 words in there. All right. At this point in time, what I'm going to need you to do, and I'm going to like to do and ask you to do, require you to do, is actually reach into your pocket, pull out your wallet, take the license from the said wallet, hand it to me, please. It's like, how about you saying, how about your license? I'm going to need you to right now. I'm going to need you to do for me. I wonder what goes on at the cop school that they, you know, like.
17:40🔗James MarstersThat's the payoff for the long hours and the low pay. They get to do that. They get to string, they string that out a little bit.
17:52🔗AdamCause it's, it's, it's a, it's, it's like, it's like when they go, well, how many beers did you have son? And you're like, well, now officer.
18:03🔗AdamFunny story. It's the equivalent of that. You never go nine. You know, it's always, yeah. What I'm going to need you do for me right now, sirs, please step out of the vehicle. It's always like, if I was like looking at the officer's handbook, I'd be looking at that going, all right, let's cut this, cut that.
18:21🔗DrewHow much is just plain old anxiety. Just think you have to walk up to somebody on the street and start talking to them. Just that may be anxiety for you and it wouldn't be interesting. You wouldn't relish it. You'd be like, look, could you come over here for a second? Cause I'm going to need to kind of talk to you from now.
18:35🔗James MarstersYeah, you know, maybe they're trying to be polite. Maybe they're trying not to be gruff.
18:58🔗James MarstersYeah, I got, I remember getting mugged and getting my face split open and going to the emergency room and getting, and then getting done by the cop.
19:05🔗AdamHe was like, he thought, he thought you brought it on yourself?
19:08🔗James MarstersYeah, yeah, get out of my emergency room, you damn punk kind of thing.
19:16🔗AdamWell, here's the thing I've learned, too, from the cops. And by the way, yes, I sympathize with them walking up, talking to strangers all day.
19:25🔗James MarstersYou always put, if you put your hands up on the steering wheel, they appreciate that.
19:29🔗DrewAnd it's strangers, it's not gonna be any strangers, that you get, you know, 90% probability is an a-hole stranger or a criminal stranger.
19:36🔗AdamI take it a step farther. I will actually, when they tell me to get out of the car, take the wheel with me. I will not lift my hands off the wheel.
19:43🔗DrewI just crawl out the window, keep my hands on the wheel.
19:45🔗AdamI crawl my ass out the window, yeah, yeah.
20:29🔗AdamAll right, what I'm gonna need you to do right now for me, son?
20:31🔗DrewChris. Hey. Yeah, 19. And this word has never been more laden with meaning. Action.
20:44🔗AdamListen, every once in a while, after my 15th minute of ambling on about nothing, I feel a little sorry for our callers and I say, let's go back and see. You know what it is? You know what I feel like about our callers? I feel like that parent that was, maybe it's a little tough on the boy. That's all tough. Let me go talk. Let me go talk to Timmy. Timmy, listen, daddy gives you time. He turns around and socks me in the nuts. Now he's getting the belt. That's what I feel like. All right, let's take a break. Let's regroup. James Marsters is here tonight from Angel. Nine o'clock Wednesday, www, start sending those letters in, kiddies.
21:21🔗AdamFour more episodes. Keep the show on the air. We'll take a quick break. We'll be right back.
21:28🔗CallerLoveline. We'll be right back. As many as one in three Americans with HIV don't know it. To find a testing location near you, call toll-free 1-866-344-K-N-O-W.
21:52🔗AdamPhone number 1-800-L-E-E-1-9-1, James Marsters, here tonight from Angel. You know him as Spike from Angel and from Buffy the Vampire Slayer all those years. Wednesday nights, WB, nine o'clock. James also got himself a band called Ghost of the Robot, which is gonna be playing at the knitting factory this Saturday night. And I was walking down Hollywood Boulevard and I saw the knitting factory the other day and I thought, wait a minute, didn't he used to be somewhere else? And why is it there? And is it the one that's on Hollywood? And it's right underneath the Galaxy Theater or what used to be the Galaxy Theater?
23:13🔗AdamYeah, about a block or whatever it sounds. Further down than Kimmel is.
23:17🔗DrewIt's on the north side of the street of Kimmel?
23:19🔗AdamOther side. You know, here's the thing, everybody. You know, you want to meet William Shatner, you want to see the Batmobile, you want to see the Cheers set. Always disappointing, all of it. It's Shatner, you know, fat and hair plugs, Batmobile. You just realize a lot of plywood and duct tape, like just orange tape and stuff. I mean, we had the Batmobile on the Man Show once. I remember Jimmy saying to me, no way, it's just a Batmobile. I was like, he's like a nine year old.
23:57🔗AdamThe rocket is a Quaker oatmeal, you know, container spray painted black that's duct tape on the back of the Impala. You know, it's not an actual rocket. Jimmy's like, no way, that's not the real one. No, here's the thing. You take the car, you know, you paint it black. You have it go by at 80 miles an hour and you put a bunch of Dayglow orange stickers on it.
24:15🔗James MarstersIt looks, it looks, it looks cool. You can take a close up of it if you want.
24:20🔗AdamYeah, but totally go get up on some of those, especially those mobiles, and you'll find out, first off, three quarters of them are plywood, like just the facades and the stuff that looks like the shark's fin is just a piece of a CDX ply that's been spray painted silver, you know. It's always a disaster. But, I'll tell you one thing, you're not gonna be disappointed. You're not gonna be disappointed in James' band at the knitting factory.
24:49🔗James MarstersI gotta say, we got a new album, and we're, it's really good. Our new album is a lot better than the old one, and I think that's probably what you were hoping for when you're in a band.
24:58🔗AdamAnd you wanna move that direction, baby, doll.
25:00🔗James MarstersYeah, and we've been rehearsing. Just got finished filming, and we started daily rehearsals with the band, and it's just absolutely fabulous.
25:08🔗DrewWell, you know what I like about the band.
25:18🔗Oh, nothing, just hanging out. I was just calling to see, oh, hi James, hi Drew, hi Adam. Well, I was just calling to find out about James' new album. When is it coming out?
25:32🔗James MarstersIt'll be coming out, I imagine, next fall, early fall. We're gonna come back from Europe and finish it up and then we gotta master it and copy it a million times.
25:43🔗Oh, right on, sounds cool. Yeah, I loved the last album a lot, it was really good.
25:47🔗James MarstersThanks, thanks. I thought that it showed a lot of potential, but it was really rough. There was a really jerk producer on it who wouldn't let us really do what we wanted to and it was me, actually, because I was kinda frontin the money for it at that time and I didn't wanna spend much money and this time we have enough money as a band to really do it right and it just sounds great.
26:49🔗AdamWell, that's that one. All right, well, get out here to the knitting factory on Saturday night.
26:54🔗James MarstersYeah, yeah. Yeah, we'll hit them. Come on down, it's gonna be good.
26:57🔗AdamYeah, go down to Hollywood Boulevard. You see a guy in a Spider-Man outfit who has no ass. I see these guys every day because they're out front of Kimmel's show, handing out flyers and taking pictures. Listen, I understand you're not gonna get a top name, a bodybuilder, just for seven bucks an hour to get in that outfit all day, but at least get a guy with some ass. Those guys are like, you know what looks like a kid wearing pajamas? Who's the guy in the Granimals out here? It's like Captain Craft in his pants out here, 128 pound guy, like super spindly with no ass, and he's just in it. It looks like Spider-Man pajamas at a certain point. And then the other one I saw yesterday, which was a new one I'd seen for, I think Jason from Friday the 13th, but with a huge gut, like a fat Jason. These guys, it's funny, if they play a guy who's not fat, they're fat. If they play a guy who's big, they're skinny. They're always a little bit off.
28:00🔗James MarstersI think it would be hard to get people to do that job. I think that's a hard job. I used to do parties as Winnie the Pooh, man.
28:21🔗AdamHow dare you? They did. Now, what did you do? Because here's what people don't understand. First off, many, many, many actors in this business who never make a penny. And you guys are listening, think about people getting rich. You're thinking about J.Lo. These guys, if they could pay their bills, doing their craft and not have to tempt, not have to be a waiter, server, whatever, they would be ecstatic. They would sign on the dotted line. If I could go to these guys, put a little contract in front of them and say, look, you're not going to be a household name. You're not going to be on a Wheaties box.
28:57🔗AdamYou get a two bedroom apartment over there in Sherman Oaks and we'll make the payments on the Acura. Where do I sign? Because they'd be doing what they do. And we'll take your soul. Still sign. So one of the gigs is, so I guess in LA, because there's a whole bunch of actors and everyone's desperate, there's a whole bunch of businesses other than the business, ancillary stuff that is sprouted off to the left and the right. And one of them is all these sort of party guys. And so you get guys who have 18 years of a Shakespearean training dressed up as one of the Ninja Turtles at a four year old's party getting 50 bucks, right?
29:43🔗James MarstersNo, I had a little show, but then I had to hang out with the kids and they were good kids and everything. But that's just basically managing kids. And that's hard when you're dressed normally. But if you're dressed as an animal, it's just absolutely impossible.
30:08🔗James MarstersIt's like community theater thing.
30:09🔗AdamWe, I came this close to getting involved with something called the Party Pals. And a friend of mine did. And I went with them on the audition and decided to audition my own self. I made it one of the deal breakers was, you know, I had to put the head on for the outfit 100 yards down from the party. So you'd be driving your car, trying to look through Fred Flintstone's styrofoam head, which, by the way, seems like could have been a lawsuit waiting to happen there. You know what I mean? Driving a motor vehicle with that Fred Flintstone's head and just basically looking through a couple of pixie sticks that trying to pull the piece of ass in down from the party and then hit it on foot. They couldn't see you. You couldn't see Fred Flintstone come driving up either. But outfits smelled the high heaven, of course, because there's no way to really clean those things effectively. This is pre-fabris. This is pre. This is PF. You understand, Drew?
31:09🔗DrewWell, one was I was at Cornell last night, as you know, and one of his kids had a like a polo shirt and they're called like, I guess he got from the gap, he said, and they're like, worry-free clothing. It was like pouring ink on it and spraying wine on it. It just flies off.
31:57🔗CallerHe was in a motorcycle accident back in January. And he was a T6 fracture, just like mid chest area. And he's paralyzed from that level down. And right now, he doesn't have any movement or feeling below that point. So I was just wondering, like, I know there's grieving process and all of that that has to happen. But I was wondering if there's any way that he would have any type of sexual function that would come back. Or I don't know how long that would take.
32:32🔗DrewWell, it's not so much that it has to come back because a lot of the male sexual functioning is a spinal reflex. It just doesn't connect to his head. He doesn't feel anything. They can have erections sometimes and some guys even can have orgasm. But if there's a problem with that, there is that viagra, obviously, and some guys get implants and things. So sort of time will tell as they work through this. But his sort of experience of it won't be the same, obviously.
33:07🔗CallerBut it's not actually like that as bad as I was expecting it to be.
33:11🔗DrewWhat do you mean? His depression is not as bad?
33:13🔗CallerRight. It's just, you know, down days where he just feels like he doesn't want to live and, you know, just, it's like on and off. Yeah, but sometimes in some other days he's completely happy.
33:28🔗AdamWell, you know, first off, the beginning's got to be horrible because, A, you're dealing with this new news of not being able to use the lower half of your body, and then, B, you've not learned how to function that way because you've not had to up until then, you know what I mean? Like, could you imagine having to learn how to read Braille at this stage of the game? Not that he has to do that, but you know what I'm saying?
33:53🔗DrewThe poopoo and the pee-pee part of this is a big deal.
33:54🔗CallerYeah, I just don't want to expect, I just don't know what to expect or if I should expect anything at all.
34:01🔗DrewSexually? Yeah, why not? Try. I mean, work with him. He obviously will want to try. I'm sure.
34:06🔗AdamWell, plus the fact that nothing wrong with the guy's mouth, right?
34:13🔗AdamYeah. You know how blind people's sense of hearing gets you out of gear?
34:17🔗James MarstersGo watch Coming Home, man. There's a sexy scene about that.
34:20🔗AdamHe'll do you up like a rattlesnake. All right, baby doll. All right, thank you. All right, good times. Well, you know. Well, what if... I'm trying to go out on a high note, Drew. Hey, it takes all kinds. What goes on with the poo-poo and the pee-pee and that?
34:40🔗DrewWell, you got to get on a bowel program. Because it doesn't really happen.
34:45🔗DrewAnd then the pee-pee is all variables. Many of them just wear a catheter chronically. And then they get the current infections and the skin breaks down and blah, blah, blah.
35:03🔗AdamYeah. Why don't we grab a keger and let's just drive straight on through to Oregon, fellas. Well, we're going to need. Well, I don't need to stop.
35:26🔗AdamWell, I got a couple of things. Uh-oh. Yeah. First, we got the... And I expect... Oh, well, now, this is going to conflict with James' knitting factory gig, so I can't invite James. But down the street at the Arc Light Theater is the Italian Film Festival and Windy City Heat, the movie we produce, is going to be showing there Saturday night. So, you can go to the arclight.com, whatever their web page is, and get whatever information you need.
35:58🔗AdamMe guys, meaning Jimmy, basically. Also, Sunday, whatever that thing I hosted for Comedy Central... The two-hour special or whatever, Sunday. I don't know what time.
36:12🔗AdamI haven't spoken to anybody. Oh, look at Drew, everybody. Yeah, the Bobbsie twins are going to be in here. Well, maybe, maybe the Olsen twins are coming Sunday. What do you think, Drew?
36:25🔗AdamWow. So here's a picture of Dr. Drew. You see this, James? There's a picture of Dr. Drew from the new Olsen twins movie. Yeah, Papa Drew. What can't he do? I mean, we already know he can't do radio.
36:41🔗DrewOne of the things I can't do, we're going to find out what they are.
36:44🔗James MarstersOh my God. Welcome to our freaky fold.
37:24🔗AdamNo. No, he was recruited. He was recruited. Don't worry. Also, he'll be playing at the Troubadour Saturday night, James, about the same time your band's going on.
37:33🔗James MarstersI'm not going to sell any tickets, man.
37:36🔗AdamJames Marsters is here tonight, Spike from Angel and of course, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. We'll take a quick break and we'll be right back. I'll be right back.
37:56🔗AdamThat's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. James Marsters here tonight from Angel. You know, Ms. Spike took that rollover from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, six seasons, slid it right over in Angel.
38:13🔗James MarstersJust squeezing that for every drop of money I can get.
39:12🔗James MarstersNo, my brother moved down here and he expected to spend a lot of time with me and he finally got frustrated. He goes, dude, you are a slave. And I was like, yeah, you got it. I'm an indentured servant. I prefer, but yeah. And that's the real work.
39:24🔗DrewExcept 180% of that 12 hours is spent leaning up against the truck with the truck drivers.
39:33🔗AdamYeah, I know, except for you need to be there. And that's the part that busts your trust.
39:38🔗DrewThere's also that part where they take the tape from the camera and measure it to your face. It takes about an hour, doesn't it?
39:44🔗James MarstersYeah. And then you have to be spontaneous after that. No, the way we shoot Angela, the director of photography is so fast. He's from Australia, Ross Bergman, and he did Dead Calm.
39:56🔗James MarstersAnd he lights in like 10 minutes, five minutes. So all of the time is not spent in your trailer waiting for them to be ready, like you'd kind of hope. You know, that's kind of the Hollywood dream. No, it's actually spent on the set with more takes. So I gotta say, Buffy was like that. Buffy was 40 minutes to change a lens or anything, and that was great. Drew, you ever see my guitar most of the time?
40:18🔗AdamYou ever see Dead Calm? No, no. You should see that movie. It's a good movie. Nicole Kidman.
40:25🔗James MarstersIt's about a murder on a boat. Nicole Kidman, Sam Neill.
40:28🔗AdamBut here's the whole thing, the whole, I mean, 98% of the movie, except for a little flashback or something, takes place out at sea. And you're usually used to being out at sea when it's, you know, high seas and, you know, all this sort of, captains and everything. This is, this is Doldrums, just, just Dead Come, as the title would state. But very interesting.
40:54🔗James MarstersYeah, but shot really well. And when you think about it, not that easy to shoot, interestingly, that's because Dead Come.
40:59🔗AdamNo, no, Drew, go see it. It's a thriller.
41:02🔗James MarstersOh man, years ago. It was like the movie that brought Sam Neill to a lot of people's minds, I think.
41:07🔗AdamDrew thinks that's a chick, by the way, so. Don't talk to him about actors. Nicole Kidman, you'll like her in this. It would have probably been about 12, 13 years. Err, what name is that for her?
42:00🔗DrewWell, you gotta tell your doctor about this. It may be something normal, maybe nothing, but to have milk production at your age is pretty unusual. The most common reason actually would be medication.
42:19🔗CallerIt's like lumps, it's like not coming out of the actual nipple, it's like lumps around it. Like on it, but not like, you know.
42:30🔗AdamAnd not the actual, not the high point, not the button. All right, Drew, talking to, well first off, just trying to pronounce her name, really trying to pronounce her name is all you need to know about her, because everything feels like a handball against the drapes. She's 12.
43:26🔗AdamAll right, hold on a second. I gotta say this for a second. Listen, all you a-hole parents out there, give your kids these crappy, stupid, confusing names. Please stop it. I had to do this God-forsaken show today with a guy named Govind, okay? And it's like, there were, I swear to Christ, there were like, there were 10 people I was working with, right? There was like a Robert, and a Cheryl, and a Susie, and a Sam, and a Steve, and Govind. I spent the entire time, because I was hosting a thing, and it was like, all right, Bobby, what'd you think of this? And Cheryl, and so I was sitting there the whole time. I spent the, the monopoly of my time, my day was monopolized with trying to figure out this guy's God damn name. Is it Dovind, Dovind, Davind, Stephen, Grovind, Govind, Govind? Now, okay, the guy's a nice guy and everything, but it's really, it's really intrusive for you to take your effed up name and have everyone spend the majority of their day trying to figure it out. And it takes up way too much time. And then, and then see with, here's the real, at least Govind doesn't mean anything. It's just confusing and no one can ever memorize it. And by the way, here's why people can't memorize your name. It's not a name. You know, what if I just said, hey, what's your name? I just made like a Jerry Lewis, it's an amazing thing. Yeah, you're going to be able to remember that? No, it's nothing.
44:51🔗AdamAnd by the way, I can't, yeah, I can't go, oh, you know, my uncle's name, eh, eh, eh. No, it's nothing. So, what do you have to do? You have to focus, focus. But now, at least the guy I'm working with today, A, nice guy, B, owns a nice restaurant, so that guy kisses his ass. But C, it doesn't mean anything, it's not connected.
45:11🔗DrewI think it's like Plato's brother's name or something, seriously.
45:14🔗AdamAll right, for me, that's still nothing. I'm from North Hollywood. I'm barely like Plato, what's his name's dog.
45:21🔗DrewBut it's funny, it's all these Greek things tonight.
45:23🔗AdamHere's now, Amita over here, every single day of her life, here's what it is.
45:29🔗AdamYeah, no, no, it's not Anita, it's Amita.
45:32🔗DrewI think you can take all those seconds that you wasted in your life, Amita.
45:36🔗AdamYou learn to speak Mandarin, Chinese, and play the guitar like Jimi Hendrix. Because every single person you meet, hi, my name's Amita. Oh, Anita, it's nice to meet you. No, no, Amita. You just have to correct every single person. And then if you read it like we are, we're sitting here reading, oh, it's a typo. Yeah. It must be a typo. Is it Amita, Anita, Amita, everybody? Listen, Amita.
46:04🔗CallerI've never hated my name so much in my life.
46:06🔗AdamChange it to Anita and kick your dad right in the nuts for me, if you would.
46:10🔗DrewHold on, hold on, maybe we gotta take a break, Amita.
46:15🔗AdamListen, Amita, you wanna be my favorite person in the world? Here's all you need to do. All you need to do is every time somebody calls you Anita, do not correct them.
46:24🔗CallerI usually don't, but you guys actually have to say it.
46:27🔗AdamI love you. Yeah, now, if it's a guy you think you're gonna spend the rest of your life with, don't correct him either. No, go ahead and correct him. But if the chick at the DMV, leave her alone.
46:36🔗CallerYeah, I don't really care what people call me. I don't care, so.
47:39🔗AdamLot of spike in years. My angel, nine o'clock on the wwwwwb. Wednesday nights, four more episodes coming up, and then that's it, unless you fans get off your ever winding asses and start writing some letters.
47:56🔗James MarstersAnd watch next week, because it's absolutely fabulous. Angel and Spike get made into the most fabulous c**ls and asses for a whole hour. And it's... Yeah, we get made big fools of, both Spike and Angel get made total fools of the whole episode, and it's really hilarious. And I had fun filming it, so that's going to be really good.
48:36🔗DrewWe were talking about this last night, whether or not there was 12 Step for Cutting.
48:39🔗CallerYeah, there's barely any. Yeah, I heard you guys talking about it for a couple seconds, but I didn't get to listen for very long last night.
48:44🔗AdamAll right, but did that inspire your meeting?
48:52🔗CallerYeah, and there's a few other meetings. She had gone to one that's around here and she didn't like it. They weren't very serious about it and stuff.
49:00🔗DrewThe idea is that 12 Step is a good way to help contain behaviors that are highly driven behaviors that are difficult to contain with any kind of use of your will.
49:10🔗AdamSo you can take the 12 Step model and apply it to just about anything.
49:21🔗DrewWell, I think 12 Step can be overdone, you know, but I wouldn't look to it as a primary treatment for cluttering, but if people are having difficulty, it's a way to get support, a way to process things emotionally.
49:38🔗DrewWell, I can see definitely. I see most severely addictive behaviors as what I call a bid for affect regulation. People who have deficiencies in their ability to regulate their emotional systems and 12 Step is a way to regain the ability to regulate and feel whole and feel good about yourself.
49:54🔗AdamAll right. So let's break that down for a second. If you're shooting heroin or cutting on yourself or needing a crap beat out of you when your boyfriend's up to poop shoot, that is a need to sort of control your, you call it affect.
50:11🔗DrewYour feelings. And by feelings, it's almost too narrow a concept.
50:15🔗AdamBut it's trying to regulate, trying to take hold of something.
50:18🔗DrewYes, to regulate, to feel whole, to feel good.
50:20🔗AdamYeah. But it's almost like by creating another very drastic feeling, you're controlling your feelings.
50:26🔗DrewYou might. Yes. Some other uncontainable feeling may not be always aware of is sort of satisfied or gratified or deferred or something. Right.
50:33🔗AdamAnd so the 12 step is a good way to satiate that.
50:37🔗DrewRebuild. Rebuild so you don't need to do those things anymore.
50:40🔗James MarstersYeah. Because it gives you extra support that you can't give yourself.
50:43🔗DrewWell, it's actually it's the that's the meeting part. But the actual 12 stepping, the actual doing the 12 step with the sponsor is a therapeutic process. It's just a controlled structured relationship. And it turns out that humans build their emotional systems through dyadic exchanges. I have an interesting question.
51:14🔗AdamHey, man. Who is this? This is John. John who? You know who this is. I've had those. Hey, dude. What's up? I haven't seen you since that party. Yeah.
51:30🔗AdamListen, I'm sorry for what I tried to do to you, man. It's cool, dude. I don't really want to relive it. No, it's not cool. What I did was wrong. Well, anyway, I'm going to get back to Survivor now, because it's been some years since we did.
51:54🔗AdamThis is now more uncomfortable than whatever it is you actually did to me nine years ago that you're calling about, because at least I was high when you were doing that, too.
52:09🔗AdamLet's just create a drive-through or a dummy or a hologram or something they can talk to other than actually confronting the person that they screwed with.
52:19🔗AdamYeah, it's just a hologram and you just put whatever face you want on it. Jim Coach, old girlfriend, dad, babysitter, whoever you got to apologize to. Korean liquor store owner, whoever you need to make amends to, go ahead and just apologize your ass off. I can keep drinking, feeling good about myself, and we don't have to have this weird stilted... And here's the other thing that people discount. When you know somebody's really effed up, it makes it easier on you. Like when people are coming up, dude, I love you, and you're going like, okay, he's not going to remember this tomorrow morning at school. But when he's sober and he's getting into that weird, hey, man, I got to... No, this is important to me, man, because I just want to say I'm sorry, especially when the voice starts cracking. I've done a lot of things I'm not too proud of, that's all I'm talking about, is this one of them? How about, what's the step where you call and apologize for this?
53:13🔗AdamWe need a 13th step where you then call back and apologize for the 9th step. That's very uncomfortable, Drew, especially when you've got as many drunken friends as I do. Oh, yeah. I get those calls all day long. I now have my assistant field them. Tell Adam.
53:44🔗CallerA brewery in blank claims that their beer has an erotic effect with men. For women, the owner claims they merely enjoy the sweet taste. And as for macho men, there's a two-liter version which allows men to, quote, fully participate in the bedroom after drinking the liquid Viagra.
54:02🔗DrewNow, this could be a little bit of a curve. It could be.
54:06🔗AdamYes. Did this happen? Is this brewery in Germany or Florida?
54:10🔗DrewRight. You think brewery immediately, you think Germany, but he may be trying to trick us with that.
54:14🔗AdamHe may. On the other hand, that would mean he was smart enough to attempt to trick us.
54:21🔗DrewAnd the story also called it liquid Viagra. We don't know if Viagra is called Viagra in Germany.
54:26🔗AdamYes. But it comes in a two liter container, which soda comes in, but not beer to the best of mine.
54:35🔗AdamKnowledge. Yes. You get your 40 ounce that Snoop is famous for. Other than that, I don't think it comes in a liter container. I'm going Germany.
55:14🔗AdamI don't know. All I know is, I think Norm MacDonald, I think people confuse me with a Norm MacDonald and they also confuse me with Gilbert Godfrey and I'm much better with the Norm mixture. Although Gilbert, plenty funny and everything, but quite a few inches shorter than that.
55:30🔗James MarstersI'm glad to see the Gilbert thing. I get confused with James Marsden all the time. X-Men came out and everyone just thought I was fabulous and thank you, man.
56:04🔗DrewWell, it may not be abnormal. There is a syndrome that some people get when they were sexually abused at a young age, particularly if the sexual abuse involved a painful experience where they do something called dissociation, they sort of disconnect from that part of their body that was the source of their pain. Those people also tend to be prone to getting pelvic pain syndromes and quote endometriosis and all this kind of stuff.
56:31🔗DrewRight. So it may just be you. I mean, you just, by not feeling anything, do you mean you can't have an orgasm with intercourse or you feel numb?
56:40🔗AdamSo you wouldn't know the difference between being in and being out?
56:46🔗CallerRight. Like, when a guy try, you know, fingers, anything, I don't feel anything. There's nothing.
56:53🔗AdamSee, that is a, you know, I mean, here's the thing, if we're talking to someone and they're not having an orgasm, we hear that every night. Being numb, I mean, really not feeling anything is cause for some alarm.
57:07🔗DrewYeah. Let's go a little further. Were you adopted or anything?
57:14🔗DrewI understand, but this kind of thing, the stuff that causes this is usually very early in life, like the first couple of years. And no, nothing happened during those two years? No, nothing you're aware of, no stories in the family or? Well, that's just you.
58:56🔗AdamThe funny thing about her f buddy sort of thing is it came out like suck buddy. So, yeah, she may beat us on a technicality. And I suppose if there can be f buddies, there can be suck buddy.
59:14🔗James MarstersNo, it was definitely f. I think it was a bunny.
59:17🔗DrewNow I'm on to this. Let's get going here. All right.
59:19🔗AdamHold on a second. Anderson, what was it?
59:58🔗AdamDrew knew it. Look, something's wrong with you because it started off with, hey, listen, your parents are great. Everything's great. Everything's fine. Everything's beautiful. And that sort of gave way to, I don't get, I give, and I don't have relationships. I'm an F buddy. And now.
1:00:16🔗DrewYou drop the F biome. You can't get it. You don't know where you are.
1:00:35🔗CallerNo, like, I mean, it hasn't been perfect.
1:00:38🔗AdamLook, so, okay, then you have a brain tumor if your parents were perfect because no 20 year old girl is supposed to be an F buddy.
1:00:46🔗DrewEspecially when you, especially when Sophia, you get nothing from sex.
1:00:50🔗CallerWell, like, that's why, like, that's why I do all the stuff I do because I don't know, like, at first I thought it was maybe the guy.
1:00:57🔗DrewSophia, here is why, here is why people sometimes get into this compulsive sexuality. They feel empty. It's the only way they feel whole and they get no satisfaction out of it, but they have to keep doing it compulsively and that is a sign of trauma and that's sort of what you're telling us here. That's something like that. That's sort of in you, that you have to keep doing it, keep doing it, but you can't be intimate, which is really what ultimately that's a bid for, you can't do that. So you have to keep trying to fill the void with these.
1:01:26🔗AdamI'm going to play another, I'm playing a different angle. Big gal?
1:01:43🔗James MarstersYeah, and that's the thing, if something happened when you were really young, you would have covered it up. Yeah.
1:01:48🔗DrewIt may just be implicit, implicitly left behind in your brain mechanisms and now manifesting as behaviors that you can't seem to understand or get a handle on or be used.
1:01:57🔗AdamWell, let's just assume everything was fine and dandy. Why don't you get yourself a relationship and start feeling that out and then when you get in a consistent monogamous relationship, you can have the guy go down on you and get some pleasure.
1:02:11🔗James MarstersYeah, because he can learn how to please you.
1:02:13🔗CallerBut I mean, I want it from like the...
1:02:17🔗AdamSomething's wrong with her. Oh, well, listen, I got way too much time tied up in these kids. I was a carpenter, I had some pride, I had some dignity. Go home at the end of the day, hold my head up. Now I got to go home, crawl inside a jackpot, cry myself to sleep.
1:02:34🔗DrewAll right, here's the... Whatever is up with Sophia, we're not able to get to in the few minutes we have here.
1:02:41🔗DrewRight, we're just adding up the score, and there's definitely some... The way she's trying to solve this problem ain't gonna work. Her idea, her concept of what she's looking for is going down the wrong path, that she's not gonna find satisfaction in the road she's on.
1:02:59🔗DrewWell, I just want to find a guy that could just do this to me and I say... Well, her plan is just to F strangers until one of them breaks through. That's right.
1:03:11🔗AdamAnd I really mean it. Listen, guys are not girls. They're cut out differently. 20-year-old guys love to have a nice wake of F buddies left in their trail, but not 20-year-old girls.
1:03:25🔗DrewWell, 20-year-old can go through a phase like that.
1:03:40🔗CallerI was put on birth control not too long ago because I was diagnosed with ovarian cysts. And the birth control they put me on says that I'm more susceptible to yeast infections. And I've had, let's see, since I've been put on it, which was a few months ago, I've had maybe about three yeast infections. And I'm wondering if there's a way that I can avoid that. If there's anything I'm doing wrong.
1:04:05🔗DrewAre you using something intravaginally, a ring or something?
1:04:07🔗CallerNo, it's a pill. It's Cariva, if you've ever heard of that.
1:04:47🔗DrewBut be that as it may, you could just keep using the creams over the counter. That's all you can do. If you have something that's causing recurrent yeast infections and you've chosen to take that medicine, that's a potential side effect. There you go.
1:04:57🔗CallerThe last one I had, though, was extreme. They put me on a pill of Diflucan.
1:05:01🔗DrewYeah. Well, that's an anti-yeast medicine.
1:05:03🔗CallerIs that just more, what's the word, strong or something?
1:05:07🔗DrewBecause I couldn't get that over the counter. You don't want to take that all the time. It's extremely powerful.
1:05:11🔗CallerNo. It gave me a rash over 90% of my body. So it really...
1:06:24🔗AdamI mean, true. But they're coming in on Sunday. God willing. And look, I don't care if we get one of them or one and a half of them or three of them. I just want those god damn Olsen twins in here, Drew. Yes?
1:06:50🔗CallerYeah, I am. First of all, I want to say Adam and Dr. Drew, you guys are awesome. I listen to you guys all the time. And second of all, James?
1:07:12🔗CallerThis may sound kind of lame, but I was really depressed and kind of killed myself one day. And I happened to have Buffy on in the background. And it was a musical.
1:07:23🔗CallerAnd so James, when you said that one line, it was, Life's not a song, life isn't bliss. Life is just this, it's living. You'll get along. The pain that you feel only can heal by living. I realized that I shouldn't kill myself.
1:07:48🔗CallerSo I've been trying to actually talk to you for a while. I went to the Ghost of the Robot concert when you were in San Francisco at the Great American Music Hall. And tried to talk to you then, but you were kind of like in that.
1:08:01🔗James MarstersIt's just a crazy situation. There's just a lot of people around at that point.
1:08:05🔗AdamWhen you're rocking, you know what I mean, you don't got time.
1:08:09🔗James MarstersBut man, that's, I mean, that's, I mean, I'm a part of a very large group to tell stories. And that's, we really do think that we're talking about real things. And that makes me really happy that it gave you a little extra bit that you needed that day.
1:09:05🔗AdamListen, I got to say something. If we put everyone who thought about killing themselves but didn't on the show, we would have several thousand guests a night. Yes, Drew?
1:09:18🔗DrewIt's not popping right out of me here. It's here, but it's hard to find information on it.
1:09:23🔗AdamI got a story that's pretty close to Dina's over here. When I was 18, I heard the song, Man Eater by Hall and Oates, and tried to kill myself. I actually tried to drive the car off the cliff, and then I realized I could just shut the radio by turning the knob. At first, I thought I was just going to ram the car.
1:09:40🔗James MarstersOr Spirit of the Night by Man for Man. Remember that?
1:09:45🔗AdamThere's a lot of bad stuff going on down there. You know what I was thinking about the other day, a song that Blue Big Chode? Chomps. Yeah. It's Dirty Laundry. Kick them when they're up, kick them when they're down. Once in a while, I don't know which eagle is responsible for that piece. Henley. It's one of the eagles creating a seagull crap. It's basically ironically. Once in a while, I walk down the halls here and into the 93-1 here at Pipe Down, the studio here, the classic oldie station up the hall, and I hear that song and I just, I want to just put an explosive vest on to me like a Shiite and extremist and just go into the studio and take everyone out.
1:10:41🔗James MarstersThere were good songs that year too.
1:10:43🔗AdamOh, that dirty laundry song, just makes me want to, a combination between wanting to just vomit and attack somebody like some program director that got too much blow put in front of him. Let me just say that.
1:10:55🔗James MarstersNo, the sad truth is that the people, there's people that, that's their favorite song. That's the sad, I mean kind of frustrating part of it.
1:11:02🔗AdamI know people. But, you know, okay, let me just say this. Let me say that, Drew, stop looking that thing up. I'm done with you with that. That's over already.
1:11:11🔗AdamI'm saying something important. I need you to focus on me over here. Let me explain, let me explain something. People are stupid. They really are. Look, if you hit them long enough and hard enough with just about anything, you can get people involved with it. That doesn't mean it's good. That just means their brains are malleable. If you take a god-awful song like Dirty Laundry, a flaming turd of a piece of ass of song and ram it up people's ass long enough, eventually they'll like it. They'll like it like Mom's Familiar Cooking that wasn't that good in the first place. They just have memories attached to it. It becomes like the Pete Ellis Dodge theme song. I sing it. I don't even know. I know all the words to Dirty Laundry. That song sucks ass.
1:11:57🔗James MarstersWe have memories connected to it too because it's been forced down our throat.
1:12:00🔗AdamI would like to sue the program directors, Don Henley. I'd like to sue anyone of the engineer, anyone involved with that song. I want my life back.
1:12:09🔗James MarstersI love your passion for music, Matt. You should be a musician.
1:12:11🔗AdamI don't like good music. I only hate bad music. That's my passion. My passion is for songs like Man Eater and Dirty Laundry that we've had forced up our ass and people try to defend. They're like, oh, that was a good song. Yeah, Hall and Oates. Jesus Christ. The band is revered. They write songs like Family Man. Think about those songs and how badly they blew everybody.
1:12:36🔗AdamPlease, the Eagles, please, enough with you guys. Did you retire already and all that crap and your solo crap? Here's the thing, too. Eagles, three good songs, 30 horrible songs.
1:13:05🔗AdamHey, buddy. I'm Adam, that's Dr. Drew over there, James Marsters. From, well, you know, I'm a spike from Buffy, and now from Angel. Wednesday nights, 9 o'clock, www.wb. Yes, Drew.
1:13:47🔗AdamNot great. Shocked. The Darkness copped a little attitude and walked off our show on Tuesday, and then I saw him performing live, and I was curious, and I was trying to go in with an open mind. Didn't sound too great live.
1:14:02🔗DrewWere they interviewed by Jimmy or anything?
1:14:04🔗DrewNo. They're too important for that or?
1:14:07🔗AdamHard to tell, but it's tough with bands on TV. I'm going to give them that. Band plays Saturday Night Live and stuff. It's never quite as good as when you're in the audience. But talked to a few folks over at the show and said, was it just me or did darkness sound a little bit sucky on Wednesday night? They were like, yeah, not great. So I thought, oh, good.
1:14:32🔗DrewI wouldn't think it would be what the record company would want, is a band walking off a show like this.
1:14:38🔗James MarstersIt's amazing how many people, even in normal clubs, will do pre-recorded stuff for their lead vocal and will be absolutely cheating. I've been playing clubs around everywhere. I've been amazed by how much cheating there is.
1:14:51🔗James MarstersI'm like, dude, it's such a ripoff.
1:14:53🔗AdamBy the way, I don't know, but if you're going to see a live concert, I mean, there's all kinds of rules like if you're doing a game show. You know what I mean? It's like, well, wait a minute. It's just a TV show. No, no, no. There's very strict rules if you're playing a game show. To me, if you're going to see a live concert.
1:15:13🔗James MarstersIt should be, as they say, not pre-recorded.
1:15:15🔗AdamThe band pre-records things. I was watching some of the Britney Spears special on HBO or whatever the other week. There's this whole scene where I was watching the whole thing and I was like, looks like she's lip syncing half this stuff. Then there was a part where she sprinted up a huge flight of stairs and got to stop. Now, here's the thing. Try singing and sprinting up 28 stairs simultaneously with your skipping every other step and see if it doesn't make your voice go, just a little bit and then get to the top and hit the high note without.
1:15:49🔗AdamYou got one mic up the took eye and the others up your nostril and you're sprinting up a long flight of stairs and there's not a ounce of breath or whatever to it. It's like, and I thought to myself, I was more angry at the bad choreography than I was at the lip syncing. Like I was like, look, do not put shelf in a dunk tank. Yeah, cause it's so obvious in the lip syncing. Don't run in place and do Tae Bo.
1:16:15🔗James MarstersLet the background people do all that phonetic dancing so that you can sing. But they have computers where if you go off the note of the melody, it will kick in the pre-recorded melody until you get back on track.
1:16:32🔗James MarstersEvery time you say something you wish you didn't say.
1:16:34🔗AdamIt's stupid and it just kicks in. Corolla's telling another high school football story. It just slides in. Drew's about to punch the mic again.
1:16:43🔗DrewMaybe we'll just put sort of an electrical shock device in our seats.
1:16:49🔗AdamNo, I like this one much better. Yeah, I just, you can't sprint up a bunch of stairs and singing all the while and never hear it in your voice with the mic three chords of any from your mouth. All right. And you do by the way, when people are singing, you hear them, you know, doing the thing.
1:17:06🔗James MarstersYeah, but that's the fun of it is that they might make a mistake actually, because it's live. That's dangerous and that's exciting, I think.
1:17:12🔗AdamYeah, I don't understand kids today, Drew, but what do I need them for?
1:17:17🔗CallerI just do a radio show where we talk to them. Chris?
1:17:36🔗CallerAnd I've found that the past few times that when I am in an intimate situation with a female, I don't get an erection and I don't really feel-
1:17:47🔗DrewWell, what's said female is the possibility that it's like-
1:17:51🔗AdamAll right, you're up in your head, Chris.
1:18:15🔗AdamNo, no, he's a clean guy. He needs a steady girl that he can work things out with and get his confidence level up with.
1:18:24🔗James MarstersI think that most guys are the same way. Most guys, really, if we're honest about it, I mean, we can go and do the stud thing and have sex with a stranger, but we really enjoy it much more when you get to know somebody. Am I wrong about it? No, not too well. We just don't admit it because we don't want to say that's the macho thing is not to say that, but it's kind of normal.
1:18:42🔗AdamWell, look, what it is, is there's a point where you're getting to know somebody and you're feeling comfortable. It's new and you're comfortable. So here's the problem. Either it's new and it's great, but you're uncomfortable or it's comfortable and it's old. There's this sort of part where they cross, usually about week five.
1:19:02🔗DrewMen actually have a biological drive for diversity. And new.
1:19:08🔗AdamOld lady listening? Yeah, tell the story. Drew asked a bunch of chickens in the cool.
1:19:15🔗DrewAnd the 43rd president. Yes, it's after the president from back in the turn of the century. And basically the federal government used to maintain farms. And they used to take the president around once a year to inspect the farms. And this president Coolidge came around. He and his wife were inspecting the farm. They separated and they were going through the farms. The farmer took Mrs. Coolidge over the chicken coop and one day held up his prize rooster and said, Mrs. Coolidge, understand this is our prize rooster. He copulates at least 100 times a day. The farmer was very proud. Mrs. Coolidge looks at the rooster and says, Ms. Vera, please be sure to point that out to the president. So now she goes on about her business and now the president comes along and now the farmer is still proud but a little more subdued about things. And he goes, Mr. Coolidge, your wife asked me please to point out that this is our prize rooster and he copulates at least 100 times a day. At which point the president said, with the same chicken? No, with 100 different chickens.
1:20:50🔗DrewI think he's got to work it out with somebody. Yeah.
1:20:52🔗AdamGuys need that chick. They can get... Here it is. This is the chick you take your shower with, your first shower with. You know what I mean?
1:21:00🔗AdamYou walk around naked. You break wind in front of you. You try a few different positions in front of this is that we, you know, you have sex in a weird place or you get a little oral on the road. This is the one you work all that stuff out with. Yeah. That's what you need. Now, once you do that with one chick and you kind of work it all out.
1:21:19🔗James MarstersYou know where the buttons are.
1:21:37🔗AdamYou have that relationship. You know, you have that girlfriend, boyfriend in high school. Maybe you do it a couple of times, but it doesn't. It's not experimental. It's just you're lucky to be doing anything. You know, that's the one where you're lucky to be going off the three meter board. You might as well just do a cannonball. You know, you don't want to get any triple pike to have twist crap, right? Somewhere around 19 or 20, it's time to start experimenting. It's time to pull out the vibrator, go, you know, start working the back door. You know, that kind of, you know, and the comfort level, too. That thing, you know, it's weird because for a while you're humping, but you can't see each other naked, like you can't walk around nude. You know, this is that walk around nude person. You know, take the shower, walk into the living room, that kind of thing.
1:22:22🔗James MarstersYeah, someone who's kind of your own age, so you're kind of going through the same thing at the same time.
1:22:26🔗AdamThis is the first person you take on a small trip, like a weekender, and then you're going up to Santa Barbara for a couple of days. Yeah.
1:22:40🔗CallerI had a question for Dr. Drew, actually. I was told, well, in high school, I was always told condoms are safe, they'll protect you from all STDs or most STDs, I should say. But one of my friends was telling me that HIV can actually go through the skin of a condom. It's a small enough organism that it can go through.
1:23:01🔗DrewThat is a concern. That's not been proven, but people have had concerns about that.
1:23:07🔗DrewWell, no, I didn't say it could. I said people are concerned that it might be the case.
1:23:11🔗AdamOh, now they're concerned about that with latex condoms?
1:23:14🔗DrewWith latex condoms, but clearly it's a lower risk than if you didn't use the condom. The question is, how good of a barrier is it?
1:23:23🔗AdamBecause it's like any kind of filter in that there'd be less dirty air coming through the filter than if you removed it completely. I mean, even more so than that.
1:23:33🔗DrewOr less likely for there to be anything getting through. It was a possibility it could get through, but they don't know that it gets through.
1:23:39🔗James MarstersIf you use a spermicidal condom, then you...
1:23:54🔗AdamOh, when I told her about something gross. All right, yes, Drew, why not? By the way...
1:23:58🔗DrewWe don't know, but there was a data, the World Health Organization came up with some data that showed that they actually increased the risk of transmission of HIV. Not an accident or an in-line, maybe an irritant. It may slightly increase the risk.
1:24:08🔗AdamBut because it opens things up a little bit, or causes an opening?
1:24:12🔗DrewIt gives a very, very slight effect. But the thing they did see was it doesn't seem to benefit anything. It's not a big deal.
1:24:19🔗AdamIt's not good. Okay, so what's up with that? Now, what is it, the AIDS virus? Is it a molecule? What is it?
1:24:35🔗AdamIt's way bigger. So the difference in size between chlamydia and AIDS- Is it a name like Shaq and the guy who played Webster, that kid? Like I'm thinking of two black, you know-
1:25:08🔗James MarstersSo we need like a titanium kind of glove.
1:25:12🔗DrewYeah, but again, the idea is that people thought, well, the latex seems to have these pores in them and maybe those pores are about the same size as a HIV particle and maybe it can get through. It'll be helpful, believe me. Wear a condom is better than not wear a condom. And it probably, these are all risk reduction measures. They're not perfect.
1:25:30🔗AdamYeah, so what about latex gloves then with the AIDS virus? Well, I mean, that's all they wear, right?
1:25:35🔗DrewYeah, but that's skin and not mucosal service exposure.
1:25:38🔗AdamYeah, but still, you see how I use that, James? It works almost every time.
1:25:53🔗AdamYeah, but still. It would have been great. We're gonna take ourselves a little break. James Marsters here tonight. And we'll be right back after this.
1:26:02🔗CallerLoveline, okay, wait, wait, wait, my hair, my hair.
1:26:20🔗AdamIt's Marsters here tonight. Spike from Angel. Drew and his stupid hypotheticals over the air.
1:26:28🔗DrewGot you guys all. I was going to bring that up on the air, too.
1:26:31🔗AdamTrying to take a whiz. James, James has one about being on the moon.
1:26:36🔗James MarstersYeah, it was actually in the show, so I can't take credit for this really good cavemen or astronauts who would win if they're on the moon, not on the moon, if they're if they're just on earth fighting, who wins in a fist fight, cavemen or astronauts?
1:26:49🔗AdamI mean, now the astronauts, are they laying down with their equipment and stuff?
1:26:55🔗James MarstersYes, they fly through time, right? And they come back in the Mesozoic era or whatever era it was, and they land down and they can get out of their spacesuits if they want to. But they find cavemen and get into a fight.
1:27:16🔗AdamWe're saying astronaut, but we just mean modern man. We gave astronauts 20 minutes to put a plan together. They could probably fashion something for themselves.
1:27:27🔗James MarstersThat's right. Plus, they would also respond in a coordinated fashion.
1:27:35🔗James MarstersBut I still go with the caveman, man, because astronauts are going to be small. They always pick the small guys to be in those capsules.
1:27:39🔗AdamThey can't have any large asses in space.
1:27:56🔗James MarstersTake your head in his hand, man.
1:27:58🔗AdamAll right, I got my hypothetical, too. This is about effing the person at the office.
1:28:03🔗DrewOh, no, we've heard this one. No, no, no, come on. This is good. There's a good call. This is powerful stuff. Somebody wants to give you a bar mitzvah.
1:28:27🔗CallerAdam, I think that you should have a bar mitzvah.
1:28:30🔗AdamYeah, it's too late now. It's too late. Now I'm literally a millionaire and I got everything I need. But back in the day, I could have used one.
1:28:38🔗CallerI understand, but I feel like you have enough respect and like you should be recognized in the Jewish community.
1:28:43🔗AdamI should. Number one, honorary Jew right here.
1:28:50🔗CallerWell, I didn't hear you, but we could find you a Torah portion and we could do all sorts of stuff. It could be so much fun. My mom can make multiple soups.
1:28:57🔗AdamLook, I'm into it. I'm not into the studying the Torah part.
1:29:03🔗CallerSo we'll have like a 13 year old boy say your part or something.
1:29:07🔗James MarstersThat's what I stand in that.
1:29:10🔗AdamThat's that's what I like. I'd be up there, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for coming out. I'm now going to read for the from the Torah. Josh, get in here. Come here, buddy.
1:29:19🔗CallerI mean, I think that's reasonable. I don't think I don't remember my Torah portion. And I don't really think that it had any.
1:29:29🔗AdamAll right, listen, you Jews got to work this out. This is a dude thing. This ain't a chick thing. This is for the fellas. I mean, you guys, you got your minstrel cycle. You got a lot of stuff.
1:29:39🔗DrewYou get your minstrel cycle. Wow. That's like the same.
1:29:45🔗AdamMinstrel cycle. You got you got your minstrel cycle. I'm tired. Drew, I went to bed at two when I got up at six. There it is. You got your traveling minstrel cycle. The point is, is you have things we don't have. Don't take our stuff. The bar mitzvah, that's for the phallus.
1:30:06🔗CallerBut I'm a Jew. I mean, like, it's more about.
1:30:10🔗AdamWell, you don't have a beard and a payos, do you?
1:30:28🔗CallerYou just have to read something. When's your birthday? I know it's coming up sometime. You said, we're going to do a countdown to your birthday.
1:30:35🔗CallerYeah. Or like, maybe that wasn't you. You were going to be recognized for your birthday and be really excited about it.
1:30:40🔗CallerBut you just find a Torah portion, something that was written in the Torah around your birthday.
1:31:43🔗AdamIt's the end of May. And I may be heading toward a bar mitzvah. Thank you, Alexis.
1:31:48🔗CallerThat's I'm in LA and I listen all the time. So I'll check in. I promise.
1:31:51🔗AdamThanks, sweetie pea. You don't have to worry about the Jews. They always land on their feet. They really do. They take care of their own children. They take care of business, you know what I'm saying? That's why I could be one. And I could be.
1:32:06🔗DrewYou couldn't take care of anybody else, but you take care of business.
1:32:09🔗AdamI do got the nap. I got the nappy Jew hair. I got that annoying voice many Jews have.
1:32:28🔗AdamYeah. The ones on the top are colder than the ones on the bottom because the ones on the bottom are insulated by the ones on the top. Please, somebody do something about this. This is an insult. Yeah.
1:33:36🔗CallerThat's right, big special. Big Bar Mitzvah special.
1:33:41🔗AdamAngel, nine o'clock, WB, Wednesday nights. Wanna thank Anderson and Ann and Junior, Junior, Junior, and producer Lauren and Chris and Brian and all the fine, fine people that make this show the good, solid seven that it is week in and week out. So until next time, this is Adam Carolla for Dr. Drew saying mahalo. By the way, here's why people can't memorize your name. It's not a name. What if I just said, hey, what's your name?
