1:45🔗AdamNo, no. I had it towed to the dealer. And, you know, the thing about the, well, we're not sure when we're going to be there kind of thing. Guys like, yeah, could be there anywhere in the next hour and called back four minutes later.
2:01🔗AdamI'm still, I'm in my underpants. You know what I mean?
2:05🔗DrewThat's got to be the only thing in life where that could happen.
2:07🔗AdamYeah. It just, it happens in that he's there because you're not there. If you've gotten there immediately, it would have been, you know, at least the full hour they said it was going to take. But driving another rig and I got in my car, had the gas gauge on, the light on the gas gauge. We've spoken about this before, but it said, you got 33 miles. I was like, all right, I think I can make it into work at 33. Because once you commit to the freeway in LA., now you're on the freeway.
2:38🔗DrewAs you described last night, if you get off.
2:42🔗AdamYeah, you're like the movie Judgment Night. You're going to get off, it's going to be a bad neighborhood in the middle of the night. So here's the thing, once you commit to the freeway, you got to get to where you're going. So, all right, I'm going to commit to the freeway, but it went from 33 down to 28 miles and about 80 feet. You know, that's the other one that makes you freak out a little bit. It's like five miles. That was 85 feet. So then you start driving a little ways longer, you back up to 33. Now, when I'm pulling off the freeway at the radio station, I'm now up to 37.
3:24🔗AdamIt's like a compass that doesn't point to the north. It's sort of, it's worse than not having a compass. You'd better off with no gauge and you'll chance it or you won't. When it tells you, oh, you only got 11, up you're back up to 26, it's worse.
3:40🔗DrewAt least you could undershoot and just commit.
3:55🔗I got 13, it's like, get the paddles out, get the crash guard. We're flat lining.
4:01🔗AdamNow, what's this mean now? This is like when that dealer at the blackjack table does the, I'm out, I'm gone. Like, I'm not going to be responsible anymore.
4:09🔗And I'm like, we had 13 miles, eight feet ago. Why?
4:20🔗AdamYeah, I mean, here's the thing. I don't know, I don't know what I would pay. What would you pay, Drew? What would you pay as an extra in a car? If you had a one gallon reserve, one gallon, and it's just one gallon, you knew.
4:35🔗DrewSome car, Jack Ward's used to have two tanks. Remember that?
4:38🔗AdamThat two, yeah, I think you could fill it from both sides. And maybe they did have two tanks. And trucks would have two tanks. But I mean, just one gallon.
4:45🔗DrewYeah, because you wouldn't want two tanks, because you'd take that one all the way down too.
4:48🔗AdamYeah, which is, that's the whole thing. You can't have just five gallons or just a separate tank or split.
4:54🔗AdamThis is one gallon. You're going to get 20 miles with this.
4:59🔗DrewAnd it needs to have some, you know, I pay a lot for that. There needs to be some engagement process that's a pain, because you don't want to just be doing that all the time.
5:07🔗DrewIt's going to be like the space-saving tire.
5:09🔗AdamNo, you have to shove garden hose into the other one and start it like a siphon, like a World War II tank mechanic. Suck and spit it into it. I don't know what it is, but the point is, is when you flip this switch, you now officially have one gallon.
5:24🔗Except for, it wouldn't work that way for me, because I wouldn't fill the small tank.
6:40🔗Me and my boyfriend had a discussion last night, and I had mentioned about how I thought that women release solid waste right before they have birth, before they give birth to a baby.
6:52🔗DrewReleasing solid waste. I mean, like, you take a big can of last night's meals and dump it over the edge of the...
7:02🔗Well, I mean, right after you're already in labor and everything, when you're laying up with your legs open, fixing to have the baby...
7:09🔗DrewWell, think about it, Deirdre. There's a bowling ball coming through your vaginal canal. It makes little sense you might squeeze something out there that you didn't intend to.
7:17🔗AdamHow often does that happen? Pretty frequently.
7:20🔗DrewI think they do a lot. I'm not an obstetrician, but they used to certainly at the county hospitals where I do a fair amount of...
7:57🔗They just said, we'll just clean it up and then deliver the baby.
8:00🔗DrewYeah. It depends on the timing and whatnot and what you want to do. But it's not that big a deal. Look, there's a lot of other stuff flying around at that point. And, you know...
8:27🔗AdamYeah, they have to sift through the piles and piles of births they have with fecal matter and finally get the one that doesn't have fecal matter in it to show it to the children. I like the way she just skated past that. You know, my sister now, she was six... well, fifteen when she got pregnant. She was sixteen and nothing came out of her, but now my mom...
10:13🔗CallerI got a question for Dr. Drew about fetish. There's something that turns me on in life. It's ruined relationships and I can't seem to get it off my mind.
10:31🔗CallerWell, I had a relationship with a girl for almost a year, and she was great. We got along real well the whole time, but when it came down to sex, I was always asking her to do this, and she didn't want to do it.
12:00🔗AdamYou know the move I missed from old movies and TV shows too is a guy would slam the car door on the used car lot and then the bumpers would fall off, the doors would fall off, and the tires, it was always a little clumsy. It was like, it's not an exact science. It's hard to just loosen those lug nuts enough and have everything serve, you know, so if you think about it, it's hard to take a bumper and hang it so it stays on, but then falls off right when you want it to fall off.
12:47🔗CallerIt's not like a wild thing or anything like that. It's just, I don't know. One of those guys has a big conscience and it just seems to be a big release for me whenever that happens.
12:58🔗DrewWhatever that means. And when the fact that she wouldn't do this, you had to break the relationship up because she just couldn't come around?
13:06🔗CallerWell, I wouldn't even myself. Towards the end, it was just, I was so insistent and I'm trying to figure out, my main question is what can I do to forget about it, just to get it out of my mind?
13:18🔗DrewWell, fetishes are sort of hard to undo unless you're going to do some long-term work.
13:22🔗AdamYeah. You repeating a mantra of, I will not be aroused by spanking is only going to make it worse. I don't know what to do. Not thinking about it means thinking about it.
13:42🔗DrewYeah. And the fact is you don't have a horrible fetish. Fetishes generally take the attention away from the intimacy. They sort of take the focus away from the closeness because in people that have fetishes, the closeness can be sort of overwhelming and scary. And fetish is one way of managing that. And this is sort of a mild fetish you have. So what you have to do is find a partner who's willing to kind of come along with you. I don't say that very often about fetishes.
14:04🔗DrewWell, just sort of let it ride. You just say, hey, just stop, because it'll spiral, it'll get worse. But I don't think it will with this guy. I don't get that feeling.
14:12🔗AdamSo just ride it out like it's like herpes that burns itself out after five years?
14:18🔗DrewOr it's something that kind of plateaus as far as it goes. And that's that.
14:40🔗My boyfriend recently kind of let it slip that he has a medical condition. It's something with his lungs and he won't tell me what it is. And I don't know how to get it out of him, but he's really not been himself since he found out. So I really want him to just get it off his chest and tell me.
15:02🔗DrewDoes he have something infectious, do you think?
15:04🔗I don't think it's anything that will affect me. He said he either has to take some sort of pills or be on oxygen.
17:23🔗DrewIt sounds very serious. People get bizarre when they get illnesses. They get like primitive man all of a sudden. It's like, oh, people are going to think I'm flawed. There's something wrong with the devil is in me because that's why I'm sick.
17:33🔗AdamYou know what it is? First off, I'll tell you something, especially with chicks. I know if I get some bad news, I don't want to go home and tell my wife because they're like, oh my, oh, oh. Then you start feeling, by the way, chicks and Drew, by the way. I got to get the hernia surgery.
17:59🔗AdamI mean, people don't want to go through that, so they're like, they just don't want to say anything.
18:02🔗DrewWell, the other thing, women sometimes don't let you maintain your denial. It's like you're in your own little world with it, and then all of a sudden you hear somebody else react to it. You're like, oh, my God, she's right. It's serious.
18:11🔗AdamNo, there's a host of reasons why you don't want to tell other people and not so many why you do.
18:18🔗DrewRight, right. But all the other reasons you don't are sort of unhealthy and avoidant and maintain denial.
18:24🔗DrewAnd then the other thing is it's about I think people have sort of primitive thinking about it. Like they really sort of think about how our history of people believe that the reason they got sick was they were evil. Something happened. They did something wrong. They were being punished.
18:39🔗DrewAnd I still think people kind of tend to think that way. They're a little ashamed of being sad.
18:43🔗AdamI, you know, I know I don't think it's that they're ashamed or they feel like they're being punished. I just feel like, look, if we don't talk about it, it doesn't really exist. And I don't really want it to exist. Therefore, I'm not going to talk about it.
18:58🔗AdamI think, I mean, I think everyone sort of has that capacity. Anyway, look, I, you know, he's going through a bad time. Probably you deserve some answers as his girlfriend of one year.
19:12🔗DrewAnd it's not as though these sound like trivial symptoms. I mean, this sounds like something very serious.
19:15🔗AdamNo, he needs to, he needs to, you know, sort of open up a little bit. And, and, and look, I think it's okay, even though you feel like he's stricken with something to be a little bit stern and say, look, I'm your, I'm your girlfriend. I'm in love. I want to know.
19:29🔗DrewWhat do I shouldn't talk to the parents?
21:27🔗DrewAnd the deprivation, whether it speaks from deny yourself sex or food or cutting, that's all similar kinds of phenomenon. And it really speaks volumes about your inability to regulate your feeling states. And it also speaks a lot to the probability that you had some serious childhood trauma.
21:47🔗What kind of therapy should I be focusing on?
21:49🔗DrewI mean, I just, I've just played a little individual therapy. Somebody has a, has a experience in the expertise in dealing with childhood trauma. This is all, this is what happens to adults when they've had childhood trauma. This is how it manifests later.
22:18🔗DrewThat's right. And then any compulsive sexual acts, whether it's masturbation or prostitution, whatever it is, you know, frequenting clubs or having problems, where it has consequences. Behaviors that have consequences in your relationships, your finances, your health, your work or school or your legal status. And yet you continue in spite of those consequences. That's addiction.
22:38🔗Well, how, like, if you are one, how do you stop?
22:44🔗DrewIt's like any other addiction. If you could stop, I suggest you do. But when it's an addiction, it's a biological process that your brain can't.
22:52🔗Why, what do you, what do you got going? You're 17.
22:55🔗Yeah. And the thing is, like, I feel really outcasted. I mean, I've been like this ever since I was little. Like, I started masturbating really early. And, and it's been, like, torturous.
23:10🔗I mean, I have to masturbate every single day. God knows how many times a day. And then I need sex, like, all the time. It's always on my mind. It won't let me, like, do anything.
24:19🔗AdamI had, I had, my mom was sort of what you'd call unstable growing up. It's freaky for a kid when a parent is sort of unstable and is sort of losing it, a little out of control. Kids feel out of control.
24:34🔗DrewWell, they feel like their well-being is in jeopardy. They're going to be, they're falling into a pit, right?
24:41🔗AdamIt's like you're in a plane and the pilot's drunk and he keeps turning around saying, what is that? What is this? What's this style? What's this gauge?
24:55🔗AdamI'll not be watching the movie. I'm not going to be looking through the Sky Mall. I'm going to go over there and try to give some coffee.
25:01🔗DrewNor I'm not going to be attending to my growth and development. I'm not going to be working in school. I'm going to be trying to break this guy patch together. You keep this guy pumped up and here we go.
25:32🔗AdamWell, maybe it's time if you can't control it to get yourself some help.
25:36🔗But it's so... I'm 17. I tried looking for it, but there's like nothing for 17 year olds.
25:42🔗DrewWell, you're right, actually, Janet. It's tough for 17. But the Delamo Hospital, if you call the intake people in Redondo, you live in Long Beach?
27:09🔗AdamAnd then they write these articles in these, you know, Cosmo rags and it's how to have a two hour orgasm. And then everyone else reads it. It's like, where's my two hour orgasm? They think something's wrong with them, but they don't talk to each other because they sort of, women sort of like each other, but they don't trust each other very much, you know? They're sort of like competing, I don't know, they're like attorneys or something in the court room.
27:35🔗They have to work together, maybe have a little respect for each other.
27:38🔗AdamUltimately, they don't trust each other. They're not going to divulge any serious information. They're scared it's going to get used against them later on in the case. Good probability. All right. We'll take a quick break.
29:18🔗DrewHere's the comedy. Before I did this, he was like, there's always a little posture between me and Ben. And because he fashions himself sort of an opera buff, he anointed me accomplished at that point. You know what you're doing now?
29:30🔗AdamWell, Ben and Drew, first off, you know, they both, they're both pretty big thinkers. And sometimes there's just not enough room on stage for two, you know, two eggheads, quite frankly. And Ben did the TV show and I think Drew gave Ms. Spare the Rod speech.
29:52🔗AdamAnd you know, Ben's not, you know, Ben's, you know, wrote speeches for Nixon, for Christ's sake. He's not a guy that likes to be told, listen. Anything. You're a little over your head in this one, intellectually, I think I know what I'm saying. He doesn't take well to that. Smart, here's the thing, here's the thing. It's like, you know what it is? It's like guys that are good athletes, they think they're good at every sport. You can't tell them.
30:15🔗AdamThey kind of are, they kind of are, but you know, they can't snowboard the first day they go to the mountain, they can't stay off the big jump. And they're just like, nah, screw it, I see that, I see how that works. That's what happens. Ben is like that.
30:28🔗DrewAnd probably most of the time, he's right.
30:45🔗Well, my boyfriend is 19 years old and he's become impotent, like out of nowhere.
30:51🔗DrewOut of nowhere? When did it first happen?
30:55🔗When did this start happening a couple weeks ago or about a month ago?
30:57🔗DrewWhat was the circumstances? What were you guys doing?
31:01🔗Well, we were just like, you know, we were just messing around and stuff and like, you know, I was like, oh, I was like, well, do you want to have sex? And he was just like.
34:06🔗AdamThey hate their stepparents. But here's here's here's the thing. Everybody is doing them a disservice by pretending like they're students. Oh, but where are you going? I'm going to college. Oh, oh, great. Where are you going? Pierce.
34:51🔗AdamYes, because you know what they're doing right now? It's like someone just threw them in a lake and they're just going to tread water for nine years. That's fantastic.
34:58🔗DrewIf you notice, people from other countries bring their kids along in an apprenticeship situation. I mean, guys work on your house?
35:42🔗AdamThey just call him Gordo now. So I love about the Mexicans. They cut right to the quick. It's like, look, what's a good nickname for a fat kid?
36:24🔗AdamBut he is a full-blown electrician. That's what. Or you go to junior college and have fun. Have fun treading water. Pull your fingers out of yours now, buddy.
36:36🔗DrewOkay, Holly, here's the deal. Is your boyfriend doing drugs?
38:06🔗DrewWell, some guys are either smoking a lot of pot and she doesn't really think about it as him doing drugs or the relationship is going poorly. He's terribly anxious. He's guilty about something. Something's not going right. Even then, though, that shouldn't... They should be able to overcome that. Think about an eighteen-year-old guy.
39:03🔗AdamListen, look, who's a better friend? One that just watches somebody tread water, is run on a never-ending treadmill, you know, with a snack bar.
39:13🔗DrewOr the one who sees them down there and says, hey, we got it, we got it. While you're treading water, you're going to go down eventually. Let's end this now. Throw a big boulder on it.
39:21🔗AdamHow about the guy who's got the guts to take a bench vice and throw it in your underpants and bring it right to the bottom of David Jones' locker?
42:06🔗DrewOkay. And at that point, you'd had Chris, listen carefully, take notes. Carb clearing.
42:12🔗AdamAll right, so basically, I got out of high school and I went to play football in junior college.
42:21🔗DrewSo that was the reason, there was a reason there for junior college.
42:25🔗AdamI got, like, recruited, if that's possible, by the local coach, Chuck. Oh, man, I can't remember his name. He was such a hard-ass. And yeah, I actually got recruited by these little colleges, like Pacific and Marshall. Marshall was smaller back then, and like Lewis and Clark, Cal Poly Pomona, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.
42:52🔗AdamYeah, but they didn't have big football programs.
42:54🔗DrewBut still, you would have been at university.
42:56🔗AdamI couldn't fill out any paperwork or anything, though, and I didn't have anybody to help me fill out any paper. I didn't know what to do, you know?
43:03🔗DrewYou couldn't follow through with those huge dreams of Cal Poly Pomona or Lewis and Clark.
43:08🔗AdamCal Poly San Luis Obispo. Yeah, so anyway, yeah, man, I should think of some of these are Pacific College.
43:15🔗CallerYeah, it's University of Pacific, University of Pacific.
43:17🔗AdamYeah, the big, yeah, I, oh, UC Davis, that was another school recruited me. But yeah, anyway, so I went to the junior college and then I hurt my back and I just quit. And I went school a little while longer and then I quit.
43:39🔗AdamDug ditches. I swung a hammer. I did that for about three or four years. Then I got a job installing closets and working part-time, but under the table. I was making the big bucks.
43:52🔗DrewAs I remember, you've told one story about that job where you went in and stole the closet in the wrong house.
44:16🔗AdamThe reason, the reason I stole, installed a closet and some brackets in the bathroom, by the way, but the reason I installed a closet into the wrong, the wrong house is because, you know, it's the same houses have the same address as one street over the one behind it. And I lived on one street and my apartment was on the other. My dad's house was on the other. When I looked at the address, I said, oh, that's my street. And somehow when I said, that's my street, at some point, my street, my old house and my new apartment or whatever it was, I went to the same, the address one street over. And I barged right in and it was a little Mexican maid. She's taking care of an infant. And I walked right in. I told her I had to head to the master bedroom, walked right in the master. Because they told me, go in the master bedroom, do the master bedroom closet and put some hooks up in the bathroom. And then something that is weird, my boss almost never said, he said, you gotta get paid. You gotta get paid. Usually just I would leave the invoice and that's it. They send the money, you know, but he said, pick up the check, which he never said before. So I went to the master bedroom, open the closet door, I was like, oh Christ, these bastards didn't clean the closet out.
45:30🔗CallerIt was packed full of crap. So they start taking everything, throw it on the bed.
45:35🔗AdamI was angry. It's like, oh man, you know, we tell them, we make these, we, you know, we book these things weeks in advance. People are told they gotta clean the closet out.
45:46🔗AdamNah, once in a while you beat a house where they, no, I committed. Took the whole closet, put the whole closet on the bed, ripped out the old stuff, put in the new stuff, went to the bathroom, put some robe hooks up or something.
45:58🔗DrewYou're putting elaborate shelves and everything in, right?
46:02🔗AdamAnd it wasn't the biggest job I ever did, but it was a closet, a master bedroom, you know? And then I told the lady to sign up and need some money. She's like, do you need some money? She's like, okay.
46:15🔗AdamThat's all I could say. She said, no, no, no, what? And I said, the money, you gotta pay the money. The invoice, I'm showing the invoice. And she went and said, you know, she went and got a piece of mail that had the address on it. She held it next to the invoice with the same address, but the wrong street name on it. And that's when I realized. And she saw the panic in me and she started running for the phone. I started running for the bedroom to back those screws out and get the hell out of Dodge. So I just backed everything out and hit the road.
47:03🔗CallerWay to go, Chris. That could be you one day. Good times. Yeah.
47:08🔗AdamWe'll take a little break. We'll be right back after this. Madam, that's the good doctor, Dr. Drew. Phone number, 1-800-L-V-E-1-9-1. Ben Stein in here tomorrow night from Son of the Mask, which is, well, it's been a while. It's been a good 11 years or so since The Mask came out.
48:12🔗AdamSomewhere in there, 10, 11 years, no problem. It's really weird, by the way. If you have TiVo, you have TiVo, you start or even just satellite cable. For some reason with TiVo, you see the year every movie came out, just cruising through the paper channels or the premium channels. Like you see these movies, The Crying Game, I saw it then. I was like, what?
48:58🔗AdamNow, 13 years ago, engineer Chris was still in junior college.
49:02🔗DrewOh, he turned. Oh, he went back. He went back like you went back. But I kind of feel like since 9-11, things like accelerated. Yeah, there's so much going on in the world. It's just hard to even keep track of things.
49:48🔗CallerUm, like I said before, my boyfriend and I have been going out for about 10 months and he is like, like the first time around, it lasts about five minutes or less when we have sex. And then after that, it's like, it lasts like way too long.
50:41🔗CallerSometimes, most of the time, no. If we get tired, we'll really stop.
50:45🔗DrewYeah, but, Jenner, he's doing that for you. So if he wants to know-
50:48🔗CallerWhy did he come so quickly the first time?
50:50🔗DrewBecause that's him. That's normal. Five minutes about, you know, a little, little in the fast side, but it's okay.
50:57🔗AdamWell, first off, it's a lifetime to a man of passion, like passing through. Of course. Five minutes. He spent five minutes under ice, in a lake in Minnesota. I mean, that's what that five minutes feels like for Dr. Drew.
51:33🔗CallerHe, like, after we're done, like, the first time around, he's always talking about, you know, he's no good because he doesn't last long enough and all this other stuff. And I'm just like, well, what can we do to make it last long or the first time, you know?
51:47🔗DrewHe can masturbate just beforehand, so you'll really be getting him round two.
51:57🔗DrewBut Jennifer, you guys have very strange ideas about this. His rhythm is the five minutes. That's him. Yours is 20 minutes. You need to figure out a way to make it work for both of you. And it's not going to be that he's suddenly going to change his rhythm any more than you're going to change yours. Why can't you go in five minutes? You're not going to do that. That's not how it works for you.
52:17🔗AdamYou know, as human beings, we really, I don't know, it's got to be a 500 billion, gazillion dollar industry every year changing whatever.
52:45🔗AdamWe would like the guys who go in 10 hours to write a book. They should no sooner write a book than the guy goes in 10 minutes or the guy goes in 10 seconds.
52:52🔗DrewNor then Christie Brinkley should write a book about how to be her.
52:56🔗AdamIt's like some people can taco their tongue. You just roll it up. Other guys can't do it. Should the guy taco his tongue write a book on how to taco his tongue? You just can do it. Some people can do it. Some people can have one eyeball looking one way and an eyeball. They just can't. They can roll their R's. They can do accents. They can do dialects. Some people are fat. Some people are skinny. Some people have a big nose. Some people have a small nose. Some people get horrible diseases for no reason. Others are fine into their 90s. The guy who's in 90s, oh, he drank and he smoked. Oh, how does this work? What did the environment do to the guy who died prematurely? Must be something. Always looking for an answer. The answer is a certain amount of people do this. A certain amount of people do that. Yeah, if the guy's working in the shipbuilding industry and he's spraying as best as 12 hours a day, that's something. But that part where it's like, he was too close to the power lines growing up. You know, this kind of nonsense. He worried too much. You know, all this nuts, all people wanna do.
53:59🔗DrewWe're way more resilient than that. And by the way, how free of any of that were we in nature? Stress and affections and things.
54:07🔗AdamNo, it's just certain people have horrible diseases and they get horrible things happen to them. Certain people go gray when they're 25. Certain guys lose their, start losing their hair at 22, 23. Other guys, they got a thick black head of hair in their sixties.
55:05🔗AdamThat's all we do. That's all we do. And then we want to basically then what we want to do is the guy's got the big calves, he's got to write a book. The guy at the big nose, he needs to be punished.
55:19🔗AdamLet's make fun of you. You, a hot chick, run straight yourself a book. We're going to learn how to be hot.
55:26🔗DrewNow, in these two couples' case, this couple, they need to learn how to manage their differences in a way that's satisfying for both of them.
55:38🔗AdamAnd the reason I bring this up is because she thinks, Jennifer thinks, I believe that was her name.
55:44🔗DrewI can't remember. She shot herself long ago in this conversation.
55:47🔗AdamJennifer, of course about to too. Jennifer thinks because she lives in our crappy society, well, what can he do? What can we do? What can we do?
55:56🔗AdamThere's a cure for everything. There's a pill for everything. There's a book for everything. There's a video for everything. Now, and then you start blaming the person.
56:02🔗DrewRight. That she's angry and resentful with him. Why is he only five minutes?
56:07🔗AdamI don't think you should blame a guy bussing nut at five minutes any more than you should blame a guy for being short or having small calves or having skinny calves or big studs.
57:29🔗AdamYeah. There's this new McDonald's commercial I just saw today where the guys got the brothers talking about the Big Mac saying, I'd hit that. It basically means I'd screw that.
57:41🔗AdamI don't think the executives quite knew what that one was either.
57:45🔗DrewAnyway, so he needs to maybe master it beforehand or she needs to relax and communicate more with him about what she needed. Because guys think that a girl needs to go all night, that it's going to be great. The longer I go, the better.
57:55🔗DrewNo, you've got your rhythm. You have, after a certain period of time, it's out only. Then they get angry and resentful like, are you done yet?
58:03🔗AdamThey usually fake an orgasm to get you off. Penny?
58:49🔗DrewIt's just like any other discharge, it's you have some secretions and they eventually work their way out. It does not come out with force necessarily.
59:18🔗AdamIt's right. All right. So there you go. You're the one who has the multiple orgasms where every chick I've been with is the one that doesn't have any.
59:52🔗AdamLet me say this about sending stuff. I don't know if you've noticed this. There's two things that are driving me nuts with getting crap in the mail. There's the packing peanuts where you pop the thing open, and then the stuff just goes blowing out of the thing, goes blowing like down the driveway, and you can't. And then there's this other one. There's this envelope that seems to be filled.
1:00:28🔗AdamAnd it's... I'll think of the name of it in a second. But it's like insulation. Yes. And you tear it open, it just goes flying everywhere. And it's like, really?
1:00:39🔗DrewBut even when you use scissors, it'll still...
1:02:16🔗CallerOK. So I go to a Christian university. And I have two roommates. And I just started there this year. And I'm finding myself to be really attracted to them. And this is like a huge problem. Because I have like all my family is Christian.
1:02:34🔗CallerSo I don't know what to do because it's really unacceptable.
1:03:09🔗CallerYeah, like it's really hard because it will change in front of me and all this stuff. And we kind of joker.
1:03:14🔗DrewHold on a second, Stacey. You know, this is the one they picked to put up for this. I mean, you can tell she's the Stacey. Stacey will do it. She'll carry it on.
1:08:30🔗AdamYeah, everybody, it's Loveline, Adam, that's Dr. Drew. Phone number 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1-R. All right, back to the phones, we go. Samantha, 22, what's up?
1:08:48🔗CallerI know I've done some research online, and I've tried to talk to my urologist, but he won't talk to me without actually seeing my boyfriend.
1:08:54🔗DrewAll right, you're a urologist, why do you have a urologist?
1:10:04🔗CallerAnd it took out about a foot of my colon. I was just wondering, this is kind of strange. Um, I want to try anal sex, but I don't know if I'm allowed to.
1:10:13🔗DrewSamantha, you are an enigma wrapped up in a puzzle.
1:10:31🔗DrewI just, you know, whatever kind of fudge packer you can.
1:10:33🔗CallerGive it a straight dope, doc, I can take it.
1:10:35🔗DrewUh, first of all, you'll have to leave the union. No more union fudge packing for you. Uh, real freelance. Uh, we'll talk. Uh, this, the hemicolectomy and for, well, here's what I find most confusing. First of all, you realize colon cancer at your age is exceedingly rare. I know. How did they, how did you present with that? What was your presenting symptoms?
1:10:58🔗CallerUm, well, I had a laparoscopy in August of 2002 to confirm the diagnosis of a neutralizer.
1:11:27🔗DrewIt's a, it's a common tumor in, that's curable in the appendix. In fact, some people believe that most serious episodes of appendicitis are caused by carcinoid.
1:11:36🔗DrewCarcinoid is just a tumor in the appendix. It's not a big deal. That's not colon cancer, okay?
1:11:41🔗CallerOkay, cause they made like, they were like, we have to do this or you can die.
1:11:44🔗DrewYes, they do have to do, yes, they do have to do it. It can get out of control. It can be a serious issue if it goes completely untreated, but that's not adenocarcinoma of the colon. It's something totally, totally different.
1:11:54🔗AdamYou don't get, chicks don't get that at 20.
1:11:56🔗DrewNo, they do not get that, and all of the syndromes you have really are in the sort of psycho-physiologic realm, the TMJ, the fibromyalgia, the interstitial cystitis, I mean these are real things, but they have a, they tend to happen in people that have trauma histories, I'll tell you that.
1:13:00🔗DrewThat is a highly traumatic family system, and that's where a lot of the stuff comes from that you're dealing with. So I do suggest you deal with the underlying issues here, which are being a child of an addict.
1:13:10🔗CallerI don't have any insurance anymore because no one will cover me.
1:13:13🔗DrewYeah, but you don't have medical problems.
1:13:15🔗AdamNo one will cover you because you're nuts.
1:13:17🔗DrewYeah, these are more in the realm of what are called somatoform disorders. I don't want to have 1,000 phone calls from people with interstitial cystitis. I get the real thing. Yes, I understand it is. But I'm talking to Samantha, her case. Nobody else's. I don't want to hear from anybody else. For Samantha, this is clearly a trauma issue. And you have some medical problems sprinkled around here and there. And God knows the stress, the trauma may have caused some medical problems.
1:13:44🔗AdamI just mean, you know, you know and we know that when someone has suffered trauma because they have one or more, it's usually more, of these sort of diseases or tr- or, or, or-
1:14:00🔗AdamThey don't seem to strike people that grew up in healthy, normal families.
1:14:04🔗DrewAnd they tend to overstate their disorders. You know, I have colon cancer. But now I know she was traumatized by the intrusions that had me. She had a part of her colon taken out for carcinoid. A whole different thing. A whole different thing. But states it up front is I've got colon cancer. And I've got this, and this, and this, and this. And none of those things add up to much of anything.
1:14:23🔗CallerYou look for the fibromyalgia, right?
1:14:25🔗DrewFibromyalgia, which is to me more often than not a sleep disorder. That, and that it's very serious, and it's a very painful and serious condition, but predominantly it's a sleep disturbance.
1:14:44🔗DrewThen it became chronic fatigue syndrome.
1:14:45🔗CallerI thought it was Epstein-Barr, then chronic fatigue.
1:14:47🔗AdamYou're right. I know, because I think my mom had some of these.
1:14:49🔗DrewRight. Then now it's a fibromyalgia. Right. It's had the same syndrome, different names.
1:14:54🔗CallerLet me explain what it's called, depression.
1:14:56🔗DrewDepression is usually a part of it. Anti-depressants, strangely enough, are the only thing that have been effective against it.
1:15:02🔗AdamWhen you're depressed, it's hard to get out of bed.
1:15:04🔗DrewWell, your sleep is profoundly disturbed, and when your sleep is that disturbed, you hurt when you wake up.
1:15:08🔗AdamYeah, and when you're going to a horrible job and you're in a horrible relationship and everything is horrible, you just don't want to get out of bed in the morning.
1:15:14🔗DrewYou had that. You kind of had that, right?
1:15:15🔗CallerYeah. I didn't want to get out of bed.
1:15:17🔗DrewBut you had the back pain and the aches and the misery.
1:15:25🔗AdamYou know, it was always upper back for me, by the way. But well, here's the thing. I slept on a futon. I had too many head collisions playing football. And then I was doing construction all day. So but that makes with being depressed.
1:15:42🔗DrewBut TMJ goes along with it and chronic pelvic, unexplained pelvic pain, unexplained urinary symptoms, all these things, irritable bowel syndrome. They all are in that spectrum. Not that they aren't all significant symptoms unto themselves.
1:15:54🔗AdamNo, but if you saw, if you're talking to someone who had four or five of these things.
1:15:58🔗DrewYou go, and you give you a certain feeling as Samantha does.
1:16:01🔗DrewThat's right. Filled that in for us. So the Epididymitis anyway, is an inflammation of his urethral tract and his urogenital tract that settles in the Epididymus. It can be bacterial, can be just inflammatory. It is usually not contagious, though there is a chlamydia and gonococcal, gonorrhea form of this, but more often than not, it is not something contagious. Okay?
1:16:21🔗CallerOkay, but his doctor has given him antibiotics before and it always comes back?
1:16:52🔗DrewThat's why the urologist won't talk to you anymore.
1:16:54🔗CallerYeah, that's why he's not talking to you.
1:16:56🔗DrewDoctors get scared when they don't know how to handle, you know, the complaints keep coming and coming and coming and there's not a real medical reason for it. And a healthy person, 22-year-old healthy person, and they just kind of push back a little bit as opposed to really going at what the primary issue is.
1:17:11🔗CallerEverything was fine growing up except for dad's in the joint, mom's in the drug addicts.
1:17:14🔗DrewLike everybody, both drug addicts, but you know what, oh, I didn't tell you that?
1:17:56🔗CallerWell, about a month and a half ago, I stopped taking my DepaShot, where I was supposed to go get another shot, and I kind of missed it because school was ending in Christmas time, and all of a sudden at the beginning of January, my period started and wouldn't stop for about two weeks.
1:18:35🔗DrewYeah, you're bleeding. Listen, when you're on the shot, all bets are off. All bets are off with the period when you're on that depot shot. You bleed for three months, six months.
1:18:45🔗DrewSo you bleed for the first three months, sometimes the first six months, and when you stop, you can bleed. Yeah, it's very... Menstrual irregularities are terribly, terribly common with that shot.
1:18:53🔗CallerWhen are they going to work that out?
1:18:55🔗DrewWell, it's always going to be that way.
1:19:00🔗AdamYeah, and where are the breakthroughs coming? Got the patch, got the pill?
1:19:05🔗DrewWell, I think I'm kind of excited about the patch and the rings, the NuvaRing and the EvraPatch, because when you take birth control pills, the first thing it does... When you put something in your stomach, the first thing it does is go into your liver. So the liver sees this massive dose of hormones, and the liver can respond to that in funny ways. It first of all can get inflamed, but it can also change the level of circulating hormones. There's something called sex hormone binding globulin, which is...
1:19:45🔗DrewWell, sometimes that won't even work. And so testosterone is what helps drive... Everyone's sex drive obviously, but especially women, if they don't have adequate levels of circulating testosterone, they can really have a drop in their libido. And so by raising sex hormone-binding lobium, they can drop free testosterone. So we have a lot of our callers kind of complain about this and that with their orgasmic function and their sexual libido. And I think the transdermal in the ring is a good potential solution to that.
1:20:41🔗We've been together about six months now. And a friend of mine told me that one man is in his late 30s or early 40s that there's more of a chance when you have children that they will have like some type of mental disorder, like psycholarity or...
1:21:04🔗Yeah, like if I want to have children, like I've been just the one who has children. And it kind of just worried me. I didn't know if this was just something that she had heard, you know, offhand, you know, I wasn't sure if there was any truth to this.
1:21:19🔗DrewWell, there's certainly issues with older women and increased difficulties with birth defects of various types. I'm not a great person to ask this one out, but I'm not off the top of my head aware of anything.
1:21:34🔗DrewAnd really, for men, it's sort of a digital issue. Either that sperm can cause a conception or it can't. And if it's healthy enough to do it, usually it's...
1:21:43🔗AdamYeah, so it's a problem that takes care of itself because if it's a bad load, it's not going to work.
1:22:40🔗DrewAs I mentioned, I was watching pictures of pornography and things during the MRI. I was seeing how your brain lights up. And then inevitably there's sperm? Sure.
1:24:08🔗DrewOne of a kind. There's only one Benstein.
1:24:11🔗AdamYeah. Yeah, if you think about it, there really is only one Benstein, and it takes a true genius, especially to recognize genius. And that's his real genius.
1:24:34🔗CallerWell, last time my girlfriend went on our period, she... Well, I kind of brought up the idea of having sex during that time, and she was really just about having sex. And I don't have a problem with it personally, but she brought up the issue that there might be health risks. Is there such a thing for either of us?
1:24:59🔗DrewWell, not... I mean, if she had some blood-borne infection like HIV or hepatitis C or hepatitis B, yeah, that could be an issue for you. And for her, if you had some sexually-transmitted disease to give her, it's more likely to get higher in her genital tract and cause more serious problems like pelvic inflammatory disease. But if both of you have nothing, then it's really not a big deal.
1:25:22🔗AdamSo, it's like... I think people seem to think you're more susceptible or vulnerable to get things, but if there's nothing being passed around, then there's nothing to get.
1:25:33🔗DrewYeah. And again, I think it's sort of primitive man-like.
1:26:21🔗AdamYou know, it's like, you know what it is for you? A period for you is like, it's like you ordered a burger with no mayo and no pickles, but they came on it anyway.
1:26:51🔗Adam70% of the food I've gotten, I've gotten has not been the way I wanted it. This is the difference between guys and girls. Women have just sent it back because they're never really that hungry.
1:26:59🔗DrewAny of that food, do you not enjoy any of that? None of it?
1:27:16🔗CallerMy boyfriend and I were messing around the other day, and when we were in the process, I was funneling his genitals, and I realized that he has three testicles.
1:27:34🔗CallerWell, one of them is normal, and the other one, it looks normal, but when you feel it, it's like two smaller ones.
1:27:43🔗DrewIs it two smaller ones, or is it one similar to the other one, and then a small one on top?
1:27:49🔗CallerThat's like what it, well, there's definitely three feeling ones. I don't know. It's still.
1:27:56🔗DrewWell, usually the feeling of a smooth, trying to think of a delicate way of saying this, of two smooth balls within the sac, one of those is some sort of a cyst, either spermatosil or varicoseal, they're very common, or sometimes it's the epidermis you're feeling. You can also have a hernia sac that can come down there and feel like another testicle, but that's it. That's usually what it is. If it's rock-like or pebble-y feeling, that's cancer.
1:28:26🔗CallerWell, it doesn't feel like that. It feels like three normal ones, both two are smaller, and I'm just kind of concerned. I thought maybe-
1:28:33🔗CallerWell, why don't you tell me, she'd maybe go see the doctor.
1:28:36🔗DrewSee the doctor again, it's a cyst, cystosil, varicoseal, spermatosil.
1:30:03🔗CallerYeah. Yeah. In the ukulele. Go ahead.
1:30:06🔗CallerYeah. Is it true that if I drink a whole bottle of Robo-Tussin, I'll get really messed up?
1:30:11🔗DrewYeah. You can cause, there's some evidence that there can be brain injury from that kind of thing. And what you get is sort of a PCP slash special K type high.
1:30:24🔗AdamMove for you. But he wants to know how to celebrate his 21st birthday. Here's the whole thing about as a guy celebrating your 21st birthday.
1:30:43🔗AdamI barfed later. Later on in the night, I got dumped off at my buddy, the Weez's house. The Weez just got himself a new BMW. I used one, but a nice one. And I said, Weez, please give me a ride home. I'm sick, and I'm going to heave. And he said, OK, but first we're going on a mall haul and run.
1:31:09🔗DrewAnd with knowing that you were going to barf?
1:31:12🔗CallerHe wanted to go on a mall haul and run.
1:31:14🔗DrewOh, a new car with a guy who wants to vomit.
1:31:16🔗AdamHe was a maniac on a mall haul. And the car was like lowered with wide tires and stuff. So I was just hanging my head out the window the whole time. He was going nuts on a mall haul. And then he dropped me off, and I had to be at work the following day, just green and digging ditches. It was a good day. So here's what you don't want to do. You don't want to peak too fast. You don't want to chug like a 12-pack at 8 o'clock. You know what I mean? Back off a little.
1:31:45🔗DrewBut wouldn't, if you don't have a girlfriend and you're just hanging a bunch of guys...
1:31:50🔗DrewWouldn't the best thing to do be to have it not all be one night? Like you go somewhere for a couple days.
1:31:55🔗AdamEh, you can't do that. You don't have money, your friends don't have your money. Go to a strip club because your friends will get you a couple of lap dances and they'll pull you up on stage. And they'll give you like a paddling and stuff. It's awesome.
1:32:52🔗AdamWell, let's take one and know one. He's going to be in here tomorrow night, so we'll talk to him. And until next time, this is Adam Carolla for Dr. Drew saying mahalo.
1:33:02🔗DrewFirst of all, you'll have to leave the union. No more union fudge packing for you.
1:33:22🔗CallerLoveline is a presentation of Westwood One Entertainment.
