1:33🔗AdamYeah, that's really, that's like my dad saying, nice car. That means run. It's going to explode. Dr. Drew, board certified physician, addiction medicine specialist, Taking Back Sunday, the band in studio tonight. Adam and Mark are in here first, and then Matt is going to rotate through the joint. God bless you. Good to see you again.
1:54🔗Taking Back SundayOh, hey. Thanks for having us. We're also certified physicians too, just so you know. Oh, great. Oh, good.
1:59🔗AdamBecause Drew usually nods off about 11 o'clock, so you guys can step in. Yeah. Phil pulls some of the slack. Speaking of pulling slack, Kimmel tonight is taking back Sunday, is going to be on the show this very evening. We're going to, was that experience good?
2:18🔗Taking Back SundayYes, great, great. It's definitely a little bit nerve-racking, but awesome time. Is it?
2:25🔗Taking Back SundayWell, because you grow up watching shows like that, and then all of a sudden you're on one, and it's kind of like, what are we doing here?
2:31🔗AdamRight. Actually, the first and only time I did Letterman, Biff Henderson, if you watch his show, he's the black stage manager. He was in, when I used to watch all the time, Biff, who was a sort of nice balding black man, would be in like, you know, Biff would go out on location, it would be Biff at the Olympics and this and that. And right before you walk out on stage, Biff Henderson is standing there holding the curtain, getting ready to open it and cue you, and you're just sort of looking at him going, what are you doing? Shouldn't you, like, is this a bit we're doing? And it's like, no, this is my job. I move the curtain. I'm the stage manager, remember? And it's like, yeah, but you're, you're the fifth Henderson stage manager. Yeah, it's like Marcus Welby, MD. He's not a real doctor. You're not supposed to be. All right, well, hold the curtain then. But it's surreal, yes?
3:37🔗AdamOh, like me. And now TV has been whacked up. It's a pie that's been whacked up into so many pieces that no one watches anymore. Now, if it was a pie, it would be wafer thin.
3:59🔗AdamAt least, maybe 80% of the TVs were turned on. I Love Lucy. It's like, oh, Thursday night, hey, everyone just turn on I Love Lucy and watch I Love Lucy.
4:08🔗DrewWhat absolutely kills me, though, is the quality. I mean, while there's pure schlock crap out there, the quality of some of the programming is so superior. I watched Six Feet Under tonight. I thought, oh, my God.
4:19🔗AdamWell, there's too much good on TV. There's too much good.
4:22🔗Well, you get that and then you also get the reality TV shows. The absolute worst.
4:27🔗AdamThere's too much good and there's also a ton of crap, but then there's a lot of really stupid people.
4:33🔗DrewSo that crap's got to work. Who's watching? That's most where the viewers go.
4:38🔗AdamListen, Sunny D sells a lot of product each year. You know what I'm saying? A ton of dumb people who have TV sets and are thirsty. The point is, you grew up watching Kimmel.
4:52🔗Taking Back SundayI've been watching Kimmel since I was, I don't know, five, six, Mark, you?
4:56🔗AdamVery young. I remember watching him as a lad myself too. Never dreaming that one day, A, I'd be working with him and B, I'd be older than he is. That, that's the part I never counted on. As a young lad, you know, dad smoking a pipe, scurrying me up the stairs, telling me I couldn't stay up late to watch Kimmel. Kimmel sitting there, porkchop sideburns with some gray on it, chain smoking, talking. A young Burt Reynolds and Dinah Shore. And me actually now being older than he is.
5:27🔗The truth is I actually saw the first week when Snoop Dogg hosted the first week, right? I was like, Dan, this show is really, really funny.
5:36🔗And we were kind of just starting out at that time. So now we're playing it.
5:39🔗AdamThe boy is a genius. And you can see Taking Back Sunday on Kimmel tonight. Also speaking of Kimmel, Crank Yankers tonight. New new season on Comedy Central. And speaking of Kimmel, too, these guys are big Windy City Heat fans, which won some award for best comedy at the Montreal Comedy Festival, which is, I guess, a good thing. So finally getting its due. How did you discover Windy City Heat? And by the way, Windy City Heat is an underground movie we produced and we're in. And it's mostly Jimmy and I did a little bit. And it's starting to catch on as a cult classic, though. It's been out for a year and people are starting to find it. How did you find Windy City Heat?
6:22🔗Taking Back SundayWell, we the tonight was actually the second time that we were on the Jimmy Kimmel show. So the first time that we were on, he just handed us He made him watch it. Yeah, three of the DVDs. And we were in the middle of the tour at the time. So no, but after watching the first five minutes of it, it turned into all of our inside jokes revolved around like Family Guy and that for a long time.
6:52🔗AdamAlex Borstein, the mom from Family Guy. Family Guy and somebody I basically knew from ACME Comedy Theater. I actually kicked her out of my kitchen one time.
7:21🔗DrewI know. Seth MacFarlane, that's the guy. I know, but she went about it with the family they are and the community they are. She doesn't even know who you are.
7:28🔗Taking Back SundayShe's going to be waiting outside for you after the show for saying that.
7:32🔗AdamLook, you want me to put a call into the Seth man? You say the word. Say the word.
7:45🔗AdamIf you're not going to pipe up, I'm not going to do it. Taking Back Sunday, number one requested song, Two Nights in a Row, by the way, on KROQ, KROQ, the mother station out here in Los Angeles. And not only is KROQ the mother station of Loveline, it's really the mother station of the alternative universe. I mean, number one station many, many years. It's perennial. It's the New York Yankees of radio stations, yes? Yes. And around?
8:12🔗Taking Back SundayEven in New York. In New York also.
8:15🔗AdamKROQ in New York, but not KROQ in Los Angeles.
8:20🔗Taking Back SundayOh, no, both. They're both just huge.
8:22🔗AdamYou're going to make a great politician one day. Where did you guys grow up, by the way? I probably asked you that last time you were in here.
8:30🔗Well, the band is like a Long Island New York band, but Adam is the only one who is not from New York.
8:37🔗Taking Back SundayWell, Fred, too, is from Philly. Oh, Fred. I grew up in the southeast in North Carolina. Well, Taking Back Sunday actually played a show in North Carolina, and they were minus a bass player.
8:50🔗DrewYou were in the bar that night and just walked up on the stage?
8:56🔗Taking Back SundayWhat? Well, pretty much, it was something straight out of a Bukowski book. I was just drinking, and then they were playing, so I walked up, grabbed a bass, and the next thing I knew, we're number one requested song on Kara.
9:12🔗AdamThey had a cattle call. There was a little blurb in Dramalog, and bam, and he just went in. They said they had to write the right look. All right, let's hear something from Taking Back Sunday. How about it? Let's hear that number one.
9:36🔗DrewWait, there's going to be a new Adam in town.
9:39🔗AdamI'm fired, buddy. Sometimes I have more wind than others. Speaking of wind, I blew such a fart tonight that my wife was at the sink with the sink running. You know, there's times when you think you're safe.
9:53🔗AdamThe new house. Oh, my God. Old house, old house, sorry. You know, there's times you think it's safe to fart, like when a guy's coming by with a leaf blower or something. There's those OK times to fart, you know? A fire engine going by. When the wife's at the sink and the sink's got the steel sink and the water's running full-borne or backs to you and your two rooms over, I could hear her yell, what was that? She's a little nervous. And that's like, think fast, think fast, think fast. Fart. That's it. That's all I could do. This is the best I could do. But when the actual, you know, when it's more than a sound, it's a vibration.
10:36🔗Does your wife get upset when you do things like that, or is she cool?
10:40🔗AdamPut it this way. Here's how bad my wife, I mean, here's how broken she is. She thanked me for peeing in the toilet tonight because I usually take a whiz in the sink. I mean, I'm actually taking a leak in the toilet, because she was hogging the sink. She was on the sink doing something, and I'm taking a leak, and she said, oh, look at you going in the toilet. Thank you.
11:04🔗AdamThank you. What a lad. Forty years old. Finally being in the toilet. I'm going to get you a toy. This is great. You need a little treat or something. Like a little liver snap or something. So, yeah, she's broken, obviously. She's thanking me for urinating in the place where human beings urinate.
11:35🔗AdamNo, I do. She doesn't. It's the flap. It's the wave. It's the waft thing. It's the essence thing. It's the scoop. Especially when you go with the two-hand, underhand scoop. It's an offering. You know what I mean? Here you go. Yeah, sample my essence.
11:54🔗AdamThat's what I say. It's greatest in the car. Okay, listen. Let me just say this to women about the farting thing, too. It's a little bit of a Mexican standoff we have with the broads, which is we think farts are funny. They don't think farts are funny. It's real. It's like Palestine and Israel and stuff. Here's the deal. We're not going to back off. You hear us, ladies?
12:29🔗AdamI can't figure out why she would react. Here's what I'm saying. Let's stop quarreling. You guys just give in. We can't be budged on this. We'll pick up our underpants and put them in the hamper. Maybe I'll start peeing in the sink three days a week. And not do it on Easter or something. There's room for negotiation. And I'm ready to make concessions. Well, I can change. I think I can change in certain areas.
13:04🔗AdamSo you ladies, embrace it. Stop fighting it. Get on board the fart train. It's leaving Fart Central every hour on the hour. Get on board. And like I said, we'll make concessions and other things. We'll ask for directions or do whatever it is you want us to do. Right?
14:00🔗AdamHold on. Can I trust you to rock? Here's the deal I need to make, Drew. I'm going to need to trust you to rock. I need the ladies to get on the far tray. All right. If those two things can be done, we can move forward with the show. All right. A decade under the influence, name of the song, Taking Back Sundays. And here we go. New CD, Where You Want To Be, out now.
18:29🔗AdamToday, as we speak. All right, Drew, could we take some phone calls? Please.
18:35🔗DrewI'm anxious to discuss with the other physicians on the panel here. We've got some direct trepidal antigen tests we want to discuss here. Ooh, yeah.
18:50🔗CallerI found out last month that I had chlamydia and I've only ever had one partner. It's been the same partner for four years. And I was wondering if it's possible in any way for it to have gone unnoticed or...
19:09🔗DrewWell, our crack screeners here put syphilis up and that's why I was talking about direct trepidal antigen. Completely different disease.
20:21🔗AdamWell, what, what do you think the percentage? I know it's hard to tell, but you're just gut instinct. Boyfriend stepping out. Did this thing just come from nowhere?
20:30🔗DrewWhat I think is that the diagnosis was wrong.
20:33🔗DrewYeah, she probably has some other tubal infection other than chlamydia. That'd be my bet. And that you can get without sexual transmission, per se. You can.
20:42🔗AdamI'm assuming your boyfriend is not only cheating, but with your mother.
20:45🔗DrewThere you go. No, just different opinion.
20:47🔗AdamThat's my instinct. I'm almost never wrong. Laurie? Do you think your boyfriend's cheating?
20:54🔗CallerWell, I didn't think so until I got the test results.
21:01🔗AdamOh, baby, don't cry. I was just kidding about the mom part. Probably just one of your friends. Is he kind of guy who would cheat? Was he cheating when you met him? No. He said he was on the second partner.
21:18🔗DrewAll right, so it could have been the first one.
21:20🔗AdamBut here's the whole thing too, everyone. Here's how you know if your boyfriend was cheating, really. How did you meet him? What was he doing? Because if he was in a relationship and you worked with him and you guys started getting together and you did this for a few months and then he broke it off, whatever, there's a pretty good chance he's cheating. He's going to do it again. That's his MO.
22:30🔗DrewWe're telling you all these positive things. If you keep up on the ante here with the negative and the negative.
22:34🔗AdamAlright, so Drew doesn't believe you. You want to come clean? Alright, so are you really that... By the way, if you're truly this fragile and naive and have the mentality of a 12-year-old, you shouldn't be getting married.
22:48🔗DrewRight, absolutely. We're telling you they probably didn't cheat, probably don't have chlamydia. We're telling you all these positive things.
22:54🔗AdamWell, I wasn't. What's the matter? Are you that fragile emotionally? Are you depressed or what's going on?
23:15🔗AdamWhat's a good tip? And legitimate massage? You know, happy ending stuff. What kind of massage? Regular massage? Deep tissue. You know, what is it? Quiet down. We'll get to it. Is it $100 for like 50 minutes?
23:42🔗DrewBecause she has to work for her tips, you know.
23:44🔗AdamHere's all I'm saying. Here's what I'm saying. 50 minutes for someone who's got about 10 minutes worth of training. They're getting $100 an hour. And by the way, it's not an hour, it's 50 minutes. You're not an attorney. Drew's a doctor. Do you make that kind of money? No. And does the old Jew walks out of the place, tip you out on the way out? Or do they just start complaining and grab a handful of samples?
24:03🔗AdamThank you. Now, that's all I'm saying. Do you need to be tipped out? And here's what everyone says. This is like, well, they don't get any of the money. They don't get any of the money. That all goes, okay, well, they should talk to the guy who's getting all the money and say, look, let's see. I got a GED and I got four months training over at the Handjob Institute of Arcadia. I'm going to need 25 bucks an hour. How about it? And you'll get 75 bucks an hour for staying at home. How about it? There you go. Let me tell you. You got 75 bucks an hour. You refill the eucalyptus bowl and I'll work my ass off here and I'll get 25 bucks an hour, which is more than a journeyman carpenter gets. And everything will be good. No, instead, it's, oh, no, I got to pay 100 bucks. Not me, my wife. You got to pay 100 bucks for 50 minutes. Oh, and here's another 30 of the guy whizzes in the sink's money. Here you go. There you go. Because you got to eat, right? I wish I wish we could. I would just should set up every business that way where I'd like to just set up a business where I announce I don't pay the employees. So whether it's clothing or food or whatever it is, you need to pay them. You need to pay.
25:14🔗AdamThe radio station should do that. They kind of almost do with guys like Chris. But it just means like, hey, guys, we do a radio show. We don't get paid. So if you could kind of help us out just a little bit here, could you help us out? We understand we don't get this is where we get our money. I like that announcement too, where you have a business and you go, hey, they get their money from tips.
25:33🔗Taking Back SundayWait, so I shouldn't have slipped Drew the 20?
25:35🔗DrewNo, no, you should. Make sure you tip Adam out.
25:47🔗AdamHe gives two dollars to Chris, the engineer, and then a dollar to the busboy, Manuel. He's going to be around a second to warm up the coffee. All right, let's take a break, Drew.
26:36🔗AdamShe hesitated. That was a beat. But wait a minute. Now, where you could be 20 should be 22 then, right? Depending on where we are. July what? Now, aren't we 22 then? Didn't we turn 22 a few weeks ago? Is it bogus or is she just depressed and stupid? She forgot. Drew, you forget. Here's, okay. Drew, where are you going, by the way?
27:34🔗AdamI mentioned it. They give a half-knowing nod. All right. And they did Kimmel tonight, so one more and you went. Now they're on this show. Please. We'll take ourselves a quick break. We'll be right back after this.
28:10🔗AdamThat's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1, Taking Back Sunday in studio tonight. Adam and Mark, both here, representing the band. Where you want to be? Name of the new CD, out today. All right, on Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight. So you can watch them right after you're done listening to the show. And watch Crank Anchors, that is, too. All right, number one, number one requested song on KROQ.
28:51🔗Taking Back SundayI don't think I know what that means.
28:52🔗AdamHere's what I'm saying. There's the NFL, and then there's EuroLeague, and there's Canadian football, and there's arena football. If you're going to be an All-Star, what league do you want to be in? The NFL is the S. That's the top. That's what KROQ is. So when your number one requested a KROQ, you're the number one S. And your S doesn't smell. Glad to say smell. All right. Ready to rock, Drew? Let's help the kids. Let's go now. Let's break it down. Hey, let's get a hand. Hey, take a knee. And let me just say this, gentlemen. That helmet is not a chair. Let's go. Grab a knee now. Remember, in Pop Warner, they didn't like you sitting on your helmets and they had to tell you it wasn't a chair. Who do you like less, by the way? The guy who says, like, whatever you're doing, that's not a chair, whatever, that's not a chair guy or the excuse you guy? You ever get that one?
29:48🔗AdamI walked up to a six pack of soda that was in the sand. The guy put it there to cool it or something. When I was at the beach when I was like nine, I was just walking down the beach, hey, six pack of soda washed ashore. I started walking and I heard, excuse you. And I thought, wow, I want to kill this guy. I'm nine. I'm like, mental note, grow up and kill this guy.
30:09🔗Taking Back SundaySir, I'm going to need your name and address so I can kill you when I'm a little older.
30:15🔗AdamI need to put a notch in your tooth so I can find you later on. Yeah, where are you going to be? You think you'll be in the greater LA area? All right, going to need to contact you in about 10 years when I'm strong enough to kill you. Kate?
31:35🔗DrewNo, no, I'm a bigger part. The condom can make you more prone to this. If the lubricant wears out, you need to add lubricant, this sort of thing. But the fact is, many, I don't know if I can say most, but many women, 10 minutes is about their limit.
32:26🔗CallerI said, this is like with my last boyfriend, too, but.
32:30🔗DrewWhat was your last boyfriend? Yeah, but you got to understand, you're configurated biologically in such a way that you're not going to have an orgasm without oral sex. That's probably going to be you. All right. So you might as well get involved in that kind of, if you're going to be sexually active, might as well find the things that work for you. And too much intercourse, obviously, even just even a moderate amount.
32:51🔗AdamShe's 16. Maybe we should stop trying to talk.
32:53🔗DrewI listen. I listen. I'm trying to talk her out of it.
32:56🔗AdamNo, you're not. You're trying to talk her into it, Drew.
33:00🔗AdamYou gave her a mandate for oral. Hey, Kate. Yeah? I'm sorry about Drew. He gets off on that kind of thing. That's his bag. You know what I'm saying? You're not European though. If you don't want to have oral sex, and also if you're not ready for it, I say get your grades up and start respecting your elders.
33:19🔗DrewIf you have a condom failure of some type, keep that morning after pill handy, okay?
33:24🔗CallerI wanted to say something to Take Back Sunday.
33:47🔗CallerI know somebody down at this radio station and they're like, I was like, wow, I really like this band and stuff. And he was like, oh, I've been listening to the CD and you can have it.
33:58🔗AdamThe oral sex part is going to start coming into the story too. I know radio guys.
34:02🔗Taking Back SundayIs that how he got you into bed?
34:11🔗CallerBut no, like, I turned off your CD so that I could listen to the edge and then you were on there.
34:20🔗AdamShe wasn't done. She had to work the F word in. And let me just say this, Drew, by the way, you and your horrible radio. Somebody gave me, I don't know, somebody gave me like a best of CD for the show. Somebody at home just made some CD for the show. And I don't know why they did it, but they gave it to me and I was listening to it in my car. I don't know why. They made it at home and then they gave it to me.
34:52🔗AdamNo, I know the home parts. I really should have never said home. But the point is they made it on their own. It's not from the radio station. And they just sent it in. I was driving around listening to it. And I was listening to a call where we had to keep dumping the person. And I remember saying to you, Drew, I kept trying to like set up saying, OK, now people at home, you can't hear what just happened. And you were talking through the whole thing. And then I started getting angry at you while I was driving. If we dump, we're dumping. People ain't going to hear the little snippet that got dumped.
35:30🔗AdamWe do. It's just not about stuff we should talk about off the air. Talking about stuff, ironically, we should be talking about on the air, off the air. But the point is, is they don't hear the dump stuff. So we got to let them know.
35:45🔗DrewIf Anderson is the engineer, he just takes it down to the one word.
35:48🔗AdamThis was the call. This is the call where we were on hold. We clicked over to the person and they were having a conversation. They kept dropping the F-bomb and they didn't know they were on the air. And for whatever reason, it got confusing at some point. That's all.
36:06🔗If they do two or three within five seconds, I got to dump ten seconds. Right.
36:10🔗DrewBut the next time a cuss word gets through, whoever is on the board gets fired.
36:13🔗CallerCould you give me a little heads up, maybe?
36:15🔗AdamWell, what happened is Jeremy Piven was on the show a few weeks back and he yelled F-Face into the microphone about as loud as he could and it got through in Tennessee.
36:28🔗DrewBasically, it was the guy here took it out and whoever was at Sleep at the Wheel in Tennessee. Westwood One.
37:21🔗AdamOh, that was probably... Yeah, dag as I know him or my main man. But I call all black guys my main man. It makes them feel like we're one. That's my main man name.
38:05🔗AdamI don't know what it is. It's like, you know, black and white porn with huge bushes, I guess. All the big guys with wax in their pubes and mustaches and stuff.
38:17🔗CallerI don't know. It was really, it was kind of dirty, but like they had like all of these like porn, they had like three porn videos. And then they had, they had a lot of like paintings on the walls and stuff like that of, some of it was like tasteful and then some of it was just kind of weird. But like, and they have this like seventies like porno video. All right.
38:42🔗AdamLet's save it for your online column, sweetie. What's going on? You got a problem?
38:47🔗CallerUm, yeah, like in the porno video, in the porno, it like scarred me.
38:57🔗AdamWell, listen, you're heading for the porn museum.
39:15🔗CallerYeah. So it's like I've been like him and his friends and stuff. Like I've seen some stuff, but it's like when I saw like the 70s porno video, like this guy had like the biggest penis like I've ever seen in like my entire life.
39:31🔗AdamYeah. Well, first off, you're 16. So so far, you should have only seen a handful of penises.
39:38🔗CallerIf that it was like it was like a foot and a half long freak job.
39:58🔗Taking Back SundayI mean, not that I've seen it, but we should let him.
40:00🔗AdamWe should let him get a little, you know, have a little, have a little mat time before he comes in. You know, just, you know, just drop the pants.
40:08🔗AdamI mean, a good athlete stretches out. I mean, piano player cracks his knuckles before he sits down at the Steinway, yes? You got to give a guy, you got to give a guy a chance.
40:18🔗DrewBut there you go. Let's fish it out, Victoria. So it bothers you still, huh?
41:22🔗AdamI'm now morbidly intrigued by Victoria. And already I could imagine her looking at junior college scholarship offers already as a young prodigy. Like, listen, baby, junior college, they must go out and find stupid people and get them young. Hey, you're 14. Where are your fingers? Have you been to your Northridge area? Go out to LA Valley College. We got Pierce. We got a great farming program out here. There's plenty of hacky sack to be played. Let's give you a tour of the campus. Come on. Yeah. Paying the parents off. Taking Back Sunday in tonight. We'll come back. I want to talk a little more to Victoria about what's wrong with her. All right. All right. After this. There, buddy, it's Loveline. Oh, a nice one. Taking Back Sunday. In the studio tonight.
42:34🔗I always try to remember what to do if the atom bomb explodes right then. It's a bomb, stuff can cover.
42:41🔗AdamYeah, I've done better work, I gotta say.
42:45🔗DrewIt's when you get diabolical in that laugh. Oh, in the laugh. It was bad.
42:51🔗AdamAdam Mark here tonight from Taking Back Sunday. Where you want to be, name the CD, hear something off that in the 11 o'clock hour on Kimmel tonight. When we left off for speaking to Victoria from Northridge, oh, the valley where I grew up, shocking. Shocking that such an intellect would be from the San Fernando Valley.
43:13🔗AdamShe went to the porn museum, which I find interesting too. And let me just, and she's talking about a guy with a big scary penis from the 70s. I'm guessing she's talking about John Holmes. I got a John Holmes video.
43:28🔗AdamIt's cool. Yeah, it's a bunch of just 70s, great 70s porn. It's awesome stuff, you know, really a little whacked down memory lane. But the very beginning, no pun intended, here's what I love.
43:43🔗AdamHere's what I love about the porn industry. Here's how the beginning of this movie start. It's called Boogie Down with John Holmes, A number one. And the beginning sequence is a guy, fat guy, like a bad belt, squeeze in some pants, and he's clearly on some set in Van Nuys, except for there's a little astroturf spread out and a styrofoam headstone that says John Holmes on it. And he starts out by talking to him, because John Holmes has been dead for 12 years, you know? And he's like, Johnny the Wild Holmes, a legend in the industry. We're gonna miss you, Johnny. But you know, his legend lives on in this compilation. I'm thinking, hey, pal, I'm beating off. The guy's dead. Come on. Use your brains over here for a second. I'm trying to beat off. You're talking to a headstone? Well, what's going on here? You got a picture of my grandma in the nude, too, that you could flash here? What are you doing? You've got to talk to a Styrofoam headstone? Really? Let's just start the goddamn movie. I think it's a fat guy in a bad belt talking to a Styrofoam headstone while I'm trying to beat off.
44:50🔗Taking Back SundayWait, did he have a shirt off, though? Because maybe he is, you know...
44:56🔗Taking Back SundayYeah, because some guys are into that more.
44:58🔗AdamNo, I wasn't. No, no guy who's in... No, how dare you? How dare you accuse me of being into a guy with a shirt off?
45:05🔗Taking Back SundayHe could have been an attractive guy.
45:07🔗AdamHe was an unattractive, fat man who spoke in a very un-elegant way, if that's even a word, to a Styrofoam headstone that was like falling over.
45:32🔗AdamHe put the compilation. He put the compilation video. I mean, John Holmes died in like 1991 or something. Maybe it was 1993. Oh, AIDS. Yeah. Oh, AIDS. Yeah. Again, again, slowing down the whole process of masturbatator, of self-pleasure, I should call it. Here's the point.
45:53🔗AdamThat wouldn't be a bad kid's toy, masturbatator. You got to stick a little penis for the nose. There's a box of Kleenex stick to the head. Yeah, it's good times. I'm going to use some lube for the ears, daddy. Nice, nice, son. Drew, do you know what I'm saying? Holmes goes into the ground in 93. They do the compilation thing in 95, and I got a guy talking to a Styrofoam headstone when I'm trying to beat off in 2004.
46:22🔗AdamThat's all, that's all I'm saying. Chris, get on the internet and find out when Holmes went down. Was that after the Wonderland murders? Must have been 90 or something like that. All right, Drew, now what? Now we can't take any calls. We've been talking so much. Taking Back Sunday in studio tonight. Wait a minute, I think I got a good one.
47:56🔗AdamI'm Adam. That's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-L-V-E-1-9-1, Taking Back Sunday in studio tonight. Mark Gaughan, Matt in Adam's Thing. Yes. Adam, not being me, but lead singer from Taking Back Sunday, which you can see on Kimmel tonight. We'll hear something else off of Where You Want To Be, and John Holmes died in 1988. Yes, Drew?
48:29🔗AdamAll I'm saying is you're talking to a headstone before the porn. It's poor form.
48:34🔗DrewDid he cut in and out during critical moments?
48:38🔗AdamHe's like, John, we're gonna miss you, buddy.
48:40🔗DrewJohn, that was a good one. Remember the time when the feeds back out.
48:44🔗AdamIt was great, too. I had the pleasure of working with the great John Holmes on one occasion. He was a total professional. I love when people, I love that drug-coked up porn star came in there.
48:56🔗CallerWho's crying out for more plot in porn?
49:21🔗AdamYeah, but you know, we always have a laugh about the turndown service at the hotel. And, you know, it's always, sure enough, they caught me. I always complain if you stay at a decent hotel, they got that turndown service. There's a knock on the door between seven and eight o'clock. Whenever you're beating off, taking a shower, doing whatever, you're taking a dump. Somehow, I think they have something that's hooked up to the toilet seat that's at pressure. Whenever there's more than 110 pounds on it, alarm goes off at the maid's thing and they start rushing up flights of stairs and they start banging on the door. Sure enough, we were out, I was out in New York last week doing the sax part thing. I'd just get out of the shower at about 6.45, seven o'clock. It just had the towel on, bang, bang, bang on the door. Sir, turn down service. Like, well, what do you need to do? Well, they come in and they yank the corner of the bed off for you and they put a mint on. And I'm always like, no, no, no, I'm fine.
50:12🔗DrewYou gotta learn. The first thing you do at the hotel room is take that do not disturb sign and stick it out there. First thing.
50:31🔗AdamNice hotel. Press that button. It's very nice. Press the button, got a little card underneath the door that said, sir, was not able to do the turndown service because the button was illuminated. If it was a mistake, we'll come back. It's like, leave me alone with the turndown service. Look, here's what I want. I want a nice pot of coffee waiting in the lobby at all hours of the day and enough with the turndown service. You know what I'm saying? Here's what I could do a little more of. Here's what I could do a little less of. I'm just saying there's that protocol, it's the plot in porn. It'd be a good name of a book. It says why we go, you know, the parsley next to the plate that you never eat. What are we going through this ritual for?
51:11🔗DrewBut apropos to the plot in porn. But listen, did you notice in Times Square, there was a gigantic billboard with Jenna Jameson on it about a film about her life or something? I was trying to figure out what the hell, but it was basically a porno though, but it was sort of-
51:27🔗Taking Back SundayNo, but what an interesting film that would be. I mean, I'm sure her life-
51:45🔗DrewYou can't really tell, but I took away from it was-
51:49🔗AdamJackable or not Jackable? All right, that's it, that's enough. That's all I need. There's two categories. Everyone, everything falls into it.
51:58🔗DrewRemember we had her up here? How long ago was that?
52:24🔗AdamNo, it's a long story, but I started on KROQ here almost 10 years ago, or right about exactly 10 years ago. Jenna Jameson has been in the porn business for about 10 years and two months. She was brand new, and I had her as a guest on this show.
52:49🔗AdamAnd a morning show here at the Flag Station.
52:51🔗DrewBecause you spotted her in your field work.
52:53🔗AdamI don't know how it worked, but here's what I did. I swear to God, I put a feather duster attachment on a cordless drill and worked her over with it. And I also put a piece of, I'm trying to think of the material on a pad sander, vibrating sander, a piece of velvet on a pad sander and worked her over with it.
53:38🔗AdamShe was on this show. But what I'm saying is, I worked Jenna Jameson over with a pad sander when she was knee-high to a bull weevil. I'm saying she was in like the ninth grade. I mean, I'm saying she was brand new. You know the weird thing, the whole thing that I found- Well, I didn't go downstairs with the pad sander. I stayed upstairs. You know, this one's vibrate. They feel pretty good. Pad sander, brrrr, vibrating sander, jitterbug sander. Well, she's a porn star. What's anything good for her?
54:10🔗Taking Back SundayNo, but porn stars are people too, you know?
54:12🔗AdamThe feather duster thing was a little more vigorous. That didn't work out quite so well. That was sort of like turning the blender on and putting the cap on it. That was a disaster. I gotta admit, that was a mistake. Here's the weird thing about the whole thing.
54:28🔗AdamThe weird part is I went to a fabric store the day before to buy myself a piece of velvet, red velvet to put on to my Makita pad sander. And there was a woman, she must have been 40, just working behind the counter. And I just went in and I was like, yeah, I'll just buy this little piece of velvet. And she's like, uh-huh. Now, I was not on the right, people didn't know me, they didn't recognize me or anything. So she's like, yeah, buddy. And I was like, yeah, I just need a little bit, uh-huh. It was weird. It's like, how do you know I'm going to put it on a pan and work over a port stop? Obviously her thing is like, here's some dude who's buying a piece of velvet the size of a CD cover. He's up to no good.
55:15🔗AdamYeah, he's not doing a liner for his mom's curtains or something. These are going on handcuffs. He's doing something weird. It's going up someone's ass, something's going south.
55:23🔗CallerMy brother used to work at a place called Fabric Bonanza. This is not a joke at all. And he said that there were some really creepy people that used to come in there. Like, you know, you'd have your like crafts, arts and crafts people, but he said other than that.
55:47🔗AdamYou know what you're gonna get to at a place like that? You're gonna get a fair amount of like Satan worshipers making new druid hoods and stuff. You get a lot of weirdos in there. They must get a lot. Yeah, you're picturing just a bunch of your mom's friends in there buying frilly paisley. And no, no, it's gotta be, a half it's gotta be weirdos. Duveteen blacking out the curtains, making snuff films in the basement. Yeah, a lot of weirdos in the fabric store.
56:12🔗DrewAnyway, so you brought her into the world. I brought her into the world. Yeah, I broke her.
56:26🔗AdamWe're very close. No, no, she knows. She's, she's a fan. She's not, none of that feather dusted. I think it didn't work out too good. I got to be honest with you. Yeah.
56:35🔗Taking Back SundayI heard she's still mad about that.
56:36🔗Adam10 years ago. Well, she's still, she's still got a swirl mark on her right.
56:39🔗DrewIt's a major, it's a very important scene in this movie. So like Nora, it's a critical moment. All right.
56:49🔗AdamHey, engineer Chris, get on the internet again and find out when Jenna Jameson's first movie release was. Then it'd be about, be about 10 years and four months. What's up there, Patty? Big fan of the band?
57:01🔗DrewAnd you were there when that one was filmed?
57:04🔗AdamNo, I was there on another, another, another thing, but okay. Oh yeah. I went to the set. Well, here's the deal. I was invited as a guest, as a representative of the show.
57:17🔗AdamOf the morning show, the Kevin and Bean show. I went to the set. They're filming, they're filming in North Hollywood where I grew up. They're filming two doors down from-
57:28🔗AdamFrom the clubhouse. No, they're about, they're about 11 doors down from my mom's place, but they're about two doors down from the clubhouse that used to have all the equipment and everything for my Pop Warner football team, the East Valley Trojans, which I found ironic. And it was about 170 degrees and it was the middle of summer. And actually I was there for about 10 hours and her scene was probably about an hour and 11. I got tired and left. So I never actually, I don't think I actually saw her scene. All right, where were we?
59:17🔗AdamOkay, what's your definition of big? Go ahead, Ella.
59:20🔗CallerWell, I wanted to call, cause Adam, you know, when I hear you, you're always saying, listen to classical music and exercise. So I could, like, I don't know, summers are not good for me. So I was having a slump and I'm normally healthy and I was getting unhealthy. And I was like, you know, I can't, I'm just saying I can't afford a psychologist. So I should do something for myself. I shouldn't just wind. And so I did the whole classical music and exercise and-
59:42🔗AdamLet me just, again, let me just make that clear for a second. We talked to a lot of people that are nuts and they're depressed, mainly depressed, and they can't find any therapy. They don't have the means for it or whatever. I tell people, get some classical music, get some headphones and start going on some long walks. And it'll clean you out a little bit.
1:00:01🔗DrewElla took Adam's advice. So after your first suicide attempt, yeah?
1:01:41🔗AdamCould you shut up for a second, please? I swear to Christ, I'm playing handball against the drapes with this, Alan. Listen, what is that with people? It's like, right, right. And what the national, shut up. Here's the thing. The national feed doesn't have commercials. You then put in all the local affiliates, put in their local commercials. They don't want to hear a Cerritos Dodge commercial in Maryland. Although Cerritos Dodge is a fine place, not worth the drive across country just to get there. Although it is dealing days. I'll tell you that. And they're moving product for $1 over sticker. $1 over factory. $1 over, they make one. They sell a custom van, they make $1.
1:02:22🔗DrewAnd sometimes they'll let some of the PSAs bleed through just because it's so important. Things like airport security, laptop computer theft.
1:02:43🔗AdamJust give us the whole goddamn thing. Okay, these are the public service announcements we have to hear every night because it's, we hear the national feed and they take on very important topics.
1:02:53🔗DrewNow, I mean, God knows there are a million things that we could think of to make PSA, just based on the topic.
1:03:54🔗AdamI'll ask for the fat guy extender, and then just tie myself off.
1:03:57🔗CallerI ain't using no newfangled seat belt.
1:04:00🔗AdamYeah, I don't trust it. What if there's a fire on the plane and I can't get out? Yeah, I'll just tie a knot. It's usually sheep shank around my waist.
1:04:08🔗DrewAnd God knows, you've got to use those life preserver, those life vests. I wear that the entire flight, usually.
1:04:13🔗AdamThe stewardess never does bring up the whole seatbelt thing. That's why it's important to have it in the form of a PSA, giving you a little heads up.
1:04:20🔗DrewBecause no one would ever tell you how to use those things.
1:04:21🔗AdamNot once you're on the plane. They don't discuss a seatbelt. Let's listen to it. And let's listen to what your body is made for. Go ahead, Anderson.
1:04:42🔗AdamHere's what I want to know. First off, more people die from hepatitis infections via the tattoo needle than airplane turbulence. First off, how many people die from in-flight airplane turbulence on a national level every year?
1:04:57🔗DrewAs compared to things that the body is meant to withstand, like tattooing.
1:05:00🔗AdamRight. Okay. So here's the thing. If someone is flying from Newark into Chicago, they hit some turbulence and a guy dies in the plane because he hits his head on the roof. Doesn't it make the news?
1:05:15🔗AdamClose your eyes. We've seen corpses being dragged out of planes. Every day, aren't you? Here's my estimation on how many people died of turbulence in an airplane on a commercial flight last year, zero. A little less than zero.
1:06:09🔗DrewFootball. Football. Football. And body's meant to withstand that. That's why there's never been a paraplegia, never been a knee injury, never been a broken bone.
1:06:18🔗AdamDaryl Stingley, Still in the Wheelchair, Joe Theismann, Compound Fracture. Meant to withstand.
1:07:21🔗DrewReally what you have to do is wear your safety belt the entire- What does that word? Hold on.
1:07:26🔗AdamWhat did he say? What did he say? Safety melt. I think it's a sandwich.
1:07:32🔗DrewSo next time you fly, stay buckled up.
1:07:34🔗The whole time. Because after all, turbulence happens and you're just not built for it.
1:07:40🔗AdamNot made to be jostled to a seat. Right. But you are meant to take a hit from a blitzing linebacker when you're blindsided as a quarterback.
1:07:51🔗AdamSo when LT's coming around the corner on the blindside, this 240-pound black man, he launches himself at your head. That the body, God designed the body for that. But being jostled in a padded seat?
1:08:03🔗AdamNo, no, no. Okay, so there you go. They give 30 examples. And by the way, all examples of things emergency room sees on a nightly basis. No emergency room has ever seen airplane turbulence. No, no. Oh, we got an airplane turbulence. Clear it out. Clear the OR out. We're rushing them in. Yeah. Okay. There you go. This is where tax dollars are going, everybody. And they're telling you to do something that they beat you over the head with when you get on the plane. Hey, the next time you're on an airplane, when you're taking off, let's see if you can undo that safety belt and get up and take a leak. See what happens. See if someone doesn't yell at you to sit down. See if you don't get tackled in the eye. Amazing. See if there's not a lip placard with it. Really? This is what we're spending our money on. This is what we got to do. And this is what we got to hear. And people, what do we do? Drive around taking notes? By the way, the people of this show, I don't think I've ever been on a, they call it a metal bird, by the way, the people that listen to the show. Yeah, they've never actually been on a plane.
1:09:05🔗CallerWho listens to that thing and is like, I bet I know what's coming. It's turbulence.
1:09:09🔗AdamHere's the thing. I would like to find the guy who put that together and kick the ass out of him. Here's what I'd like to do.
1:09:17🔗Taking Back SundayHere's what I'd like to do.
1:09:19🔗AdamTell us. I'd like to sneak into the guy's apartment. I'd like to give him one of those pillowcase soap type prison military beings. So here's how it works. He's right in the middle of the room. You guys jump up. You pull a rolled up towel over his mouth and pull it tight so he can't talk. Meanwhile, Drew and I beat the crap out of him. And I'm yelling, is your body meant for this, pussies? Stop wasting our money. Then I kick him in the nuts. And I say, go out there and do some PSAs about some people give a good rat's ass about you, puss. And get busy. Stop throwing the money away. Airplane turbulence. And who, by the way, raises their hand? You know, goes, hey, you know what we need a PSA? How about putting a seatbelt on? Oh, that's a great idea, Phil. Let's throw a few hundred thousand dollars at that. We got to lay that down right away. Let's get that in a heavy rotation on the alternative stations and we're going to play that. People need to hear about that.
1:10:11🔗DrewWell, as kids, they need to be aware of that.
1:10:13🔗Taking Back SundayEspecially with this age market.
1:10:15🔗AdamNobody's in prison, teen pregnancy, gang violence, all gone, all done away with. Domestic abuse, molestation, it's all sexual abuse, all finished with. Let's focus on the seat belts.
1:10:25🔗CallerWe're getting on a plane in a couple of hours, and I know previously we weren't probably going to wear our seatbelts now. No, of course not.
1:10:31🔗Taking Back SundayI wouldn't have even thought to.
1:10:32🔗CallerI don't even. Yeah, now we're going to wear them.
1:10:35🔗AdamNow, you could find me normally before I heard this PSA, I would be in the aisle working on that. You know that board that has just a little rolling cylinder in the middle of it? You stand on it. You just say, I think it's good for surfers and skaters. I'd just be honing my craft right there, take off and landing. Now that I've heard this, it's a whole different situation. All right. Well, good. A little heads up there, everybody. Where do you keep your wallet? My gruff telling you where to put your wallet. I like to put my foot up my gruff's ass. Thank you. Where do you keep your wallet? Up your ass, you mutt. Really? Here's the thing. I can't drive 10 feet in the city without seeing some graffiti. There's no PSA on, there's nothing of that. Take kids, leave the spray can at home or something, nothing. Nothing there. Airplane turbulence. All right, fantastic. We're going to take a back Sunday. In studio tonight, we're going to hear something off the CD. They're on Kimmel tonight. Take a quick break. We'll be right back.
1:11:38🔗Taking Back SundayAlright guys, here's the deal.
1:11:40🔗DrewYou're looking to hook up, sick of wasting time with the wrong person?
1:11:45🔗DrewCall the Dateline. 877-889-DATE. Call the Dateline.
1:11:59🔗CallerThis hour brought to you in part by Axe.
1:12:02🔗Taking Back SundayExperience the Axe Effect.
1:12:28🔗AdamI'm Adam. That's the good doctor, Dr. Drew. Taking back Sunday in studio tonight. Where you want to be. Name of the CD. Gonna hear something else off the new CD. Now, we're gonna take one call. One call, one call?
1:12:40🔗DrewLook at, it's push crowd, it's been a whole 90 minutes.
1:12:42🔗AdamAdam and Matt, both here from Taking Back Sunday. They share my outrage towards the retarded PSA.
1:12:49🔗AdamPillowcase type beating, you guys with me?
1:12:51🔗DrewWell, Adam, totally with me. Over some urine here, he just described to me that his life goal is to find the guy that wrote this thing. Put him in a room and tell him for two weeks, don't put a garden hoe in your ear. Just repeat that over and over again.
1:13:02🔗AdamLook, he's gonna sit in a chair, he's gonna sit in a chair and for two weeks, I'm just gonna stand like a clockwork orange. I'm just gonna stand there and go, don't put a garden hoe in your ear. And he's just gonna go, why would I? Don't do it! Yeah, I'm not gonna, don't do it! And then I'll go, give me $20. Okay, don't do it! And then two weeks, I'm just breaking down. It's gonna come out crying, just a wreck, just a shell of a man, muscles, atrophy. And then I beat him with the garden hose. I got a garden hose, I just beat him. I just wanna kill this guy. I wanna find him and kill him. Oh, the idiots, the retards in this country. What we gotta deal with, the money, the time, the resources. Think about everything that's wasted in this country. Think about all the money that's going in. All we ever talk about is, oh, there's not enough for schools, there's not enough for infrastructure. I've been wanting a goddamn bullet train to Vegas for the last 22 years, we can't do it, we got no public transportation.
1:13:59🔗DrewOf law enforcement officers out there getting the parking enforcement.
1:14:02🔗AdamChicken ass tickets, we got no, oh God, what we could do? I mean, here's the thing, this country, the potential for this country, like we're running at about 20%. If we were running, if we're running, Yeah, that's a nice estimate. Yeah, okay, 17 and a half percent. If we were running at 45%, it would be utopian.
1:14:24🔗DrewAnd it's no big deal to get there. Most of the inefficiency is related to the legal system? Laws?
1:14:29🔗Adam90% of it is related to lawyers, and yes.
1:14:35🔗Taking Back SundayI think that going back to the parking thing, I think it's much more important to have 10 officers on one street giving people tickets than it is arresting drug dealers or rapists or criminals.
1:14:45🔗DrewOr checking the harbors out for terrorists.
1:14:49🔗Taking Back SundayWhy would you want to do that?
1:14:54🔗AdamWe don't have the manpower. We don't have the manpower. We got a hundred guys in right-hand drive Chevettes. What about those bushes?
1:15:02🔗CallerDo you want to hear something funny? My girlfriend got jumped on a train recently on this train line on Staten Island. There's one train on Staten Island. It goes from the ferry to the other side of the island and back to the ferry. One train. So they called the commerce, the town, whatever, to complain about it. And their answer was, what do you want, a cop on every train? But it's one train and one cop or maybe two and one guy that just could walk back and forth. And it was like, no, we don't have the resources. We don't have cops for that.
1:15:39🔗AdamThey got a lot of energy for cars. For tow truck drivers. They have unlimited resources and energy for getting money out of you. But if you want them to do something, they got no resources, they got no time. Oh, okay, don't get me going. Okay, all right, we gotta talk to Scarlett. Scarlett?
1:16:29🔗DrewKeep from doing, you know, some toughness guys.
1:16:31🔗AdamWell, that's arguable, but for us and for you, and that's important, people. He doesn't get a vote. All right, was it tough at the trial and stuff?
1:16:39🔗CallerI didn't have to go. But like, I don't know, I have one more session of therapy.
1:18:13🔗CallerNobody else knows this. Actually, you guys are the first people I am telling this to. My own mother doesn't even know. As far as everybody knows, he's only done it once.
1:18:25🔗CallerYeah, he's been doing it since I was like 10 or 11.
1:18:28🔗DrewAll right, well listen, you gotta stay in therapy. And you gotta talk to the therapist about this. It is crucial to you.
1:18:34🔗CallerI can't stay in therapy. We can't afford it.
1:18:37🔗DrewWell, if they find out that you started when you were younger, they may be, maybe some victim services available for you, something like that.
1:18:44🔗AdamWhere all the money's going in the past.
1:18:45🔗CallerBut then how am I supposed to go about that? Because they've already given him, given him his sentencing.
1:18:50🔗AdamWell, he got his sentencing based on him, them thinking he raped you one time.
1:19:25🔗AdamThey think, hey, Scarlett? I'm sorry, listen carefully though, please. The courts think you were raped one time at age 14. All right, and I gotta believe, hold on a second, I wanna talk amongst ourselves. I do think these counts pile up. And I do think they do this with murder and they do this with other crimes where it adds up. You get four years per whatever. I don't know how it goes if you're raping someone over the course of three years. You're not gonna get 175 years in prison, but I gotta believe four year minimum, I mean, this guy might be out in 28 months or something. You know what I'm saying?
1:20:08🔗DrewLet's figure out why she doesn't tell other people. Scarlett.
1:20:14🔗AdamAs long as you were, well, first off, if this had been going on for a long period of time and you were silent about it, and I don't blame you for that, you were a kid, how'd it come out eventually when you're 14 or 15?
1:20:27🔗CallerI don't know, it just like kind of shocked me because what ended up happening was I fell asleep on the couch and I woke up when he was raping me.
1:20:34🔗DrewAnd that was enough for you, that was it, suddenly you had it.
1:20:42🔗AdamAnd I think- You decided to say something after a number of years. Okay, and so you finally decided to say something and then when you finally decided to say something, you just talked about that one incident.
1:20:59🔗DrewListen, tell your therapist about the fact that it's been a longer thing, okay? Will you commit to us that at least?
1:21:07🔗AdamYeah, it's okay. You're not gonna get in any trouble or anything.
1:21:10🔗DrewYou're a victim. You had nothing to do with any of this. You were a child. This was an out of control, sick adult who himself had been victimized in some horrible way, no doubt, but now he's an adult. Now he's a criminal.
1:21:22🔗AdamHopefully, he's being victimized as we speak. Is there, and again, this went on for a number of years. Your mom never had any inkling that this was going on?
1:21:35🔗DrewThat's why it makes us think something happened to your mom. Yeah. But we're convinced.
1:21:40🔗AdamI know you're letting her off the hook. We're not. I think there's something up with her. And it's sort of negligent parenting, at least. I mean, your daughter's being raped by your husband and there's no-
1:22:27🔗DrewAll right. Here's the deal. Mom couldn't possibly, no, she was busy screwing some other guy. How could she possibly know that that was raping me at all?
1:22:36🔗AdamYou're right. She's a saint. I had no idea. And by the way, I don't apologize very often, but when you're wrong, you're wrong. I was wrong about this woman. She's a delight. I'd like to have her buy for dinner. Listen to some PSAs. You can watch me throw a tantrum. Look, mom's a mess. And what we were saying earlier about mom possibly being victimized is the moms who bring home the predators are the moms who were the prey. They're attracted to predators. They were yesterday's prey is today's lure for predator.
1:23:13🔗AdamThis is what you call feel good music, by the way. I'll tell you what, you want to dance? It's Taking Back Sunday. All right, let's hear. Can we hear a song Anderson? Are we cool? We can squeeze one in, right? Come on, buddy.
1:23:24🔗DrewCome on, here we go. Here we go, bring it on.
1:23:26🔗AdamCome on, let's break it down. Chris, let's go buddy.
1:23:37🔗Taking Back SundayActually, it's Freebird.
1:23:39🔗AdamIt's called the Set Phasers to Stun. Taking Back Sunday, everybody, in the studio tonight on Kimmel Tonight, Naming the CD, Where You Wanna Be. We'll take ourselves a quick break. CD is out, by the way, as we speak. Drew, on the computer, take a, on the lead computer, take a quick break, and we'll be right back after this. That's Dr. Drew, Taking Back Sunday in the studio tonight. I said to hear an uncomfortable exchange between Drew and I, we argued during the break.
1:27:30🔗DrewThey were looking down the whole time.
1:27:33🔗Taking Back SundayOh no, we were giving each other secret hand signals.
1:27:36🔗AdamReally? Yes. It's way more uncomfortable for the people who hear it, I realize, than Drew and I, who have these serious.
1:27:46🔗CallerDude, hop on our bus. Yeah, hop on our bus for about 25 minutes.
1:27:51🔗Taking Back SundayWe tour with, there's 12 people that are in the bus with us. We are better at tuning things out than anyone that I know. So that didn't make us uncomfortable even a little bit. Actually, I was thinking about the PSA still. Good. It sucks.
1:28:08🔗AdamGood, focus, that's right, prioritize. All right. Drew, you all right? You're not wounded?
1:28:48🔗AdamThat's what I meant. Larry King, stiff as a board, maybe. If you hug Larry King, and you just, imagine what hugging Larry King would feel like, and then go ahead and cross-pollinate him with an ironing board and now hug him.
1:29:23🔗CallerBecause if you can't tap, I never know. It's like the lady that won all that money from the super big fast food chain for the hot coffee.
1:29:32🔗Taking Back SundayYeah, you idiot, that's your fault. That's your fault for being an idiot.
1:29:36🔗AdamWe gotta get the lawyers out of this country.
1:30:13🔗CallerWell, my question is actually for Dr. Drew. My father, he's actually from Ireland. He's been drinking pretty much all his life. He's born and raised-
1:30:22🔗DrewSomebody from Ireland with alcoholism? I've never heard of that. I've never picked that up.
1:30:27🔗CallerSo it's part of the culture to drink and everything.
1:30:29🔗DrewIt's not just part of the culture. It's part of the biology of that genetic heritage. They have a very high incidence of this gene.
1:30:35🔗CallerYeah, well anyways, he's been drinking all my life. Actually, my parents got divorced because my father drank too much.
1:30:43🔗CallerWell, the question is, me and my brother both moved out of our house about a year and a half ago. We moved back in. I've noticed in the last year, he's getting a lot worse with his drinking. He doesn't drink at home, but he goes to the bar.
1:30:58🔗AdamYeah, you're 22 and you really, first off, moving back home is never a good idea. It's always a bad idea, and especially with an alcoholic McBoozer for a dad, you don't want to do that.
1:31:13🔗DrewIt sounds like they're really kind of going back in to take care of dad as much as anything.
1:31:18🔗CallerMy dad is a great guy. You know, he treats me and my brother both like great, you know, but I think he's becoming dependent on me and my brother because me and my brother are the only two people that he really has here in the United States.
1:31:30🔗DrewWell, you're the enablers now, though. You're also allowing him to keep going with this disease. If you really care, you're concerned that he's going to die of his condition, which very commonly happens. You gotta step up. You gotta say, look, we can't keep supporting this. We can't be a part of your demise. We're gonna have to be out of your life unless you do something about this.
1:31:49🔗CallerYeah, well, yeah, I've heard of interventions, but I've heard on the show of interventions, but you say it does cost a lot of money, which me and my, I'm only 22, you know, I don't have $10,000.
1:31:58🔗DrewBut what Adam said is go to Al-Anon, which is go to yourself, Goodo 12-Step Program, where you learn about how to deal with family members with this disease. And in my experience, the, that move has a more profound impact on the identified patient than anything else. If you go to Al-Anon, he has a probability of giving you free.
1:32:29🔗CallerYeah, so I have just been going around the city all day from like way in the early morning trying to see you guys. When you were at Tower, they sold out. And then so we went to, me and my friend Amy, we went to Jimmy Kimmel at four to wait for you guys. But then long story short, my friend had to go home. So we found a ride, cause we don't drive, we found a ride back to Jimmy Kimmel at nine. I'm really sorry. We found a ride back to Jimmy Kimmel at nine. And the security guards wouldn't let us in. So we just waited outside and we were watching you guys from outside and you guys were so good and we heard you.
1:33:06🔗CallerIt was really, really awesome. And we love you guys. And yes, we went to the side and, you know, you had to leave, you had to go to Loveline. So yeah.
1:33:14🔗CallerIt's a fitting end to the day now that we're on a phone together.
1:33:17🔗AdamAnd here's the real fitting part. We're out of time.
1:33:22🔗CallerJust under the wire, girl. You had to go.
1:33:24🔗CallerThanks, Baby Doll. Thank you for your support. When are you guys going to be back in town, like where I can meet you guys and stuff? Because I love you guys so much.
1:33:43🔗AdamThanks, Weepy. We'll take a quick break. We'll be right back.
1:33:47🔗CallerOK, so I know there's nothing wrong with me. So what's up?
1:34:10🔗CallerThis hour brought to you in part by Axe. Experience the Axe Effect.
1:34:36🔗AdamWell, that's the show everybody. I want to thank Taking Back Zeni for coming in and...
1:34:41🔗Taking Back SundayThank you for having us.
1:34:42🔗AdamBeing smart enough to agree with almost everything I said.
1:34:45🔗DrewNot just agree, but pick it up and self themselves.
1:34:48🔗AdamYou know what these guys did? Something improv called Yes And, and Not Only That, But. See, that's a little game. Take that.
1:34:56🔗DrewBut they would have followed after that was a little weak. Yeah, they were good.
1:34:59🔗Taking Back SundayAnd not only that, but I would just like to say for all the listeners out there, to next time you're on an airplane, please, please don't forget to buckle up.
1:35:07🔗DrewWhen you're in the airport, never smoke it. Don't set your computer down.
1:35:12🔗AdamThey get stolen. All right. Where you want to be? Name of the CD on Kimmel tonight. God bless you. Come back as soon as you can. Until next time, this is Adam Crowley for Dr. Drew, saying mahalo. Where do you keep your wallet? My hip. Up your ass, you mutt.
