1:20🔗VoiceoverHey, everybody. Loveline, I'm Adam. That's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Dr. Drew, board certified physician, addiction medicine specialist. Dagg was going to be in here tonight. David Allen Carolla.
1:37🔗AdamAlso known as my main man. I was going to be in Hawaii tonight, and Dagg was going to fill in for me, and then I decided not to go to Hawaii, so Dagg decided not to come in.
2:18🔗AdamNo, he's smart. Our friend? I love the guy.
2:23🔗DrewI saw him on Conan a couple of nights ago and he was sort of discussing a new show. He was on a Broadway. I thought, wow, he got the part. Remember when I ran into him in New York and we flew back together? And it closed about three days later. Oh. It's called Mambo. And he said one of the reviews called it Mambo Bombo.
2:45🔗AdamI did the first the first thing I ever got reviewed, some sketch comedy thing. It the director's name was Mark Sweeney. It the first like eight words were Mark Sweeney's bloodless conception is dead on arrival. As first I've been swinging a hammer for like nine years as a first review had ever been written. I thought, wow, here it goes. This is rough. It's on. And it's been minus four stars ever since.
3:19🔗AdamDeadless bloodless conception is dead on. Wasn't it was a sketch comedy thing. Wasn't like a revival of Frankenstein or something like that. It was just it was just sketch comedy, sketch comedy. True. I don't even know where the bloodless conception part. Right. That was awesome. And also it was it was that horrible rag. I think LA. Weekly. Yeah. Super lefty communist paper. Nothing but advertisements for like futons and boob jobs in the back. Yeah, I don't know. And then a long story about Nancy Reagan being one of the original Sandinistas or something, you know, in the cover. It's awesome. And great, great journalism. But and they just the two things I remember about this review was was that first line. And then somewhere in the body of the story, it said, it said, the only thing that was good about the thing was Adam Corolla. Oh, that's it. I was like, oh, fantastic. Well, I felt good about that. And then it went on to make a point and a little lesson on creative writing, which is good comedy is not banged out on a typewriter. It is honed at the workshop using one of my sketches as an example of good comedy, which was honed at the workshop, except for it was banged out on a typewriter by guys that I got an idea for a bit and I just told him to go home and write it and he went home and wrote it. We never did it in the thing. So that's all you need to know about reviews and reviewers in these rags, which is, here's your shining example of the only thing that's good about the show. Here's why it was good, except for is the exact opposite of those reasons you said.
4:54🔗DrewThat's right, the reality is the exact opposite.
4:55🔗AdamNow everything else was banged out in, everything else was honed in the workshop, but the one that was banged out on the typewriter, it was the one I told John McCann, John go bang this on the typewriter.
6:23🔗AdamIf you put pressure on your perineum or your taint, as it were, for 100 times, and then didn't use your hand for the 101st time, nothing would come out?
6:34🔗DrewWell, you can cause narrowing and stricturing in that area. Yeah, cause of irritation, inflammation.
6:39🔗AdamWhat about people who sneeze and sort of grab their nose? If you did that 100 times, but if you moved your hands, it's not bubble would come out, the 101st?
6:47🔗DrewYeah, but there's no valve there like there is down in the prostate area.
6:58🔗DrewNot a horrible idea, but not a great idea.
7:00🔗AdamWell, look, here's the thing. Anything that's trying to come out of your body that you stop from coming out right when it's about to come out?
8:26🔗DrewYeah. This, I think, is more sort of what we might call acting out at your age than necessarily addiction. Have you been depressed?
8:36🔗GuestYeah. For a while. For about, yeah, about five years now.
8:39🔗DrewSince you started all this sexual activity. That is one of the things, one of the, sometimes one of the manifestations of depression, or bipolar depression even, is bad grades, truancy, sexual acting out, all that in a person your age may be a sign of depression. But, you know, 17 year olds don't always get sad and cry. They may feel kind of depressed, but then they sort of, what's called, act out their feelings. They go and do all these crazy things. And that's more a sign of the depression than anything else. You really don't meet the usual criteria for sexual addiction. And I dare say I'd be hard-breast to label somebody with sexual addiction under the age of 18.
9:32🔗AdamAlso, Drew, isn't it easier, like when you start, you get in that sort of little shame spiral, everything becomes easier. Like, you're on a diet and you break your diet and eat a donut. The second one's easier, the third one's even easier, and then your sixth one, you almost have to eat.
9:52🔗AdamYeah, there's a weird human thing, which is when you start screwing up, and it's interesting, which is, OK, you're on this diet of, you know, you're not going to have any sex or you're not going to whatever. Then you slip up and screw up and then you start feeling shame. And then you just have this weekend.
10:11🔗DrewShame. Shame is what generates the desire to do more. And doing more creates more shame. And you get in this sort of spiral of activity.
10:18🔗AdamRight. It's a weird thing. It's sort of like, I mean, everything is this way. It's like you're gambling and you lose. So you think I'm going to make it up on this hand and then you lose that. And then you freak out and bet more. But really what you need to do is just walk away.
10:33🔗AdamBut it's like it's sort of like unsatisfying, like as it is, it pertains to like something like dieting. Like you're on this diet, you break your diet, eat a donut. All right. Well, I ate one donut. I'm going to stop and get back on my diet. Somehow it doesn't feel like you've learned anything or done anything.
10:47🔗DrewOr you've activated a drive. Now you've brought the drive on. It's created cravings. The whole system is active right now. You're just going with it.
10:58🔗AdamBecause the people you know in life who slip up, eat the donut and go, well, that was a mistake, but tomorrow I'll eat a salad. They don't seem to ever have any real problems, do they?
11:32🔗AdamSo what does Sonya need to do? Just stop?
11:34🔗DrewSonya needs to get her depression treated. She needs to see a doctor. She lives in Pasadena. Lots of go over to Los Encinas and get it checked out.
12:52🔗AdamOh yeah, actually on TV. Yeah, yeah, on Mod. Adrienne Barbeau was hot. Yeah, I remember her. Yeah, we did. Yeah, it's kind of hard to tell black and white. The diagonal was kind of screwed up and rolled a little bit. But I could see those big jugs. Yeah, Jesse. All right. What's up? Who are you angry at? Tell your mom.
13:11🔗GuestMom, it's more or less my stepdad because he always accuses me of being like a rug muncher and goes around the house and calls me a lesbian and everything.
13:20🔗DrewThe perfect way to get back at him is to become one.
14:09🔗AdamWhat are you lying about? It's your own business.
14:12🔗GuestWell, when my parents accuse me of it, I always tell them, no, I don't look at girls and everything, and I do.
14:17🔗AdamOh, they don't accuse you. They're not serious about that.
14:21🔗GuestWell, my stepdad's very serious, actually. He's announced it to people just to humiliate me.
14:27🔗AdamNo, he has not. He has not. Let me tell you something about angry girls. Let me explain. I know this syndrome well. I grew up with one. Dad screws them over. And then any man who comes in to whatever, somebody says, hey, I'll see you in gym class. They heard you've got a fat ass you need to work out. Right. That's all. They just hear horrible things from men from that point on because original dad broke their heart. And look, here's the deal. What those guys need to do, actually, my stepdad was smart. He never talked to anyone. At least that way, never actually could get accused of saying something.
15:04🔗DrewBut that's where he developed that habit, I suspect.
15:38🔗AdamWho cares? Listen, look, Jesse's a mess, her dad's in a hole. What are you going to do? I know no child left behind, but let's get serious. All we can do, I'm telling you, with Jesse, just don't get pregnant. That's about it. I would consider that.
16:20🔗AdamYou know what I'm saying? Yeah, these poor kids, you know, the dads are such a-holes. They just F the kid up and especially women. Here's the thing. Women, man, they're made out of paper mache. You can't leave them in the rain. They fall apart. You can't screw with them. Guys end up getting into taekwondo and open in a dojo one day. Right. And freak out in their fifties on some guy at a supermarket. But that's about it.
16:47🔗DrewOr they may become a more aggressive criminal type.
16:50🔗AdamWell, if you beat on them, usually. But the thing. Well, that's true. But the thing about the women is their mind gets scrambled. When daddy doesn't love them, when daddy doesn't show them attention, they get scrambled. And then they go through their life sort of scrambled. Got a stepdad who's calling. He's actually shouting to other people. She's a lesbian.
17:15🔗DrewLook at my rug munching daughter. That's what she's saying.
17:30🔗CallerI have two questions. One is, I've been listening to the show since I was 12. I really love you guys, Adam. I was wondering if you can do a little bit of a Ace Rockolla thing tonight. I haven't heard that in a while.
17:41🔗AdamAll right. Take that under consideration. A little traffic. You know, we get the weather out. The weather report out.
18:00🔗AdamEarly July. Yeah. Fogs burning off by the afternoon. Seventies by the beaches, eighties inland, nineties going to get up the nineties. Oh, hold on a second. Wait a minute. I was going out. I'd wrap myself in foil and chicken fat and I was heading outside. But what are you saying? I'm going out. I'm going out to North Hollywood. What do you say?
18:22🔗DrewHe said there could be 85 in North Hollywood.
18:38🔗AdamYeah. Watch out. Look out for traffic. Look out for brake lights on the Artesia exit out in Guanaganejo out there. Yeah. You know, I have a lot of fun with my I have a new super gay assistant. We sit and he's not he's from Georgia. Oh, so he's only been here. He's been in town for about a year. Oh. And we sit and listen to AM radio every morning while I beef about stuff. And it's on in the background. But there was they break away for the traffic every about 35 seconds. And they just start mentioning these. But at the DeVore Pass, there's and I just have fun. I go, you ever heard of that place? No, I don't know where that is. What about Conejo? No, no, no, no. I realize he's been in town for you. He's never even heard of most of the places that are slow and go or you should look out for brake lights because they're 60, 70 miles out of town.
20:26🔗AdamHey, Hartford, look out for mattress and lanes. I just sit there and I just, and everyone just listens to these idiotic traffic reports and gets something, and here's, here's my challenge to everyone. Here's my challenge to you, because I have this theory that all they want to do is waste our time and pick up another sponsor, but they've brainwashed you lemmings into thinking that you need this thing. Here's my challenge to everyone. Close your eyes and think about the last time you heard a traffic report. I don't even hear when I'm in my car, by the way. I hear 90% of them when I'm in my bedroom.
20:59🔗DrewImagine a world without the traffic report.
21:03🔗AdamOh, I know I would be losing nothing, but people argue with me all the time. So here's the test I want to put to you people. When is the last time you acted on a traffic report? How many times in the last?
21:16🔗DrewAngus Eubankus told me he acted on one once.
21:20🔗AdamAngus Eubankus. How many times have you done it in the last five years and did it save you any time? Those are the two things. The answer to that is less than once. If you really break it down versus how much your goddamn time did you spend listening to this bitch rag about the DeVore Pass, you could have driven around the moon 30 times in a mini van. That's all. We don't need it, everybody. We don't need the weather either. They're having those early morning clouds burning off. Burning off. Oh, boy. I got to dress accordingly. What is going on? And it's a good thing because I was going to bring a muff.
22:06🔗AdamNot here. Not in June, not in July. Here's the deal. Pipe up if something changes. Otherwise, why don't you just tell us how to inhale and exhale so we don't all suffocate? Retard idiots. Back to Nancy. Oh, I can't stand it. I can't stand the traffic report. How many traffic reports have you heard of you use? And how many of those backup beeps have you heard that you've gotten out of the way of? Zero. Zero and zero. Where's the outrage?
22:41🔗AdamOh, AM radio has some good talk radio, but those goddamn pussies never stop with the traffic and the weather. And they act like they're doing something for ever. Got to break away.
23:29🔗AdamAnd lanes. Yeah, look out for brake lights, you idiots. I like to strangle all those people. I really would. If I hear another goddamn weather report, I'm going to kill myself. Think of all the stuff you hear, including what's coming out of my mouth now that you just don't need to hear all day, every day. All the information.
24:29🔗AdamHey, everybody, it's Loveline. I'm Adam. That's Dr. Drew. Phone number, 1-800-LOVE-191. I love the weather coming up for you today.

27:15🔗AdamLate night weather, mid-morning weather, and then we'll be checking in with Sky Team Chapter 4 with Insta-traffic and Insta-weather, brought to you by Travagan Weather. All right? Here we go. Because you got to know what's going on. You don't want to hear a traffic report from like 1969. You got to hear one now. You got to have Insta. You want the Insta one. You don't want some guy going, hmm, I feel like there could be some slowing on the 405 somewhere 2008, maybe 2010. No, that's not going to help if you're got, you know, running late for the airport.
27:58🔗DrewI need to hear the traffic to know that though, right?
27:59🔗AdamOh yeah, you got to know, you got to know. Otherwise, there's no possible way. And then you get the insta, you get the sky, you get the sky chopper five up there at the insta traffic, because, you know, you don't want the traffic from like 1971. You don't want some go, well, there's a Oldsmobile Tornado that blew a radial tire out and a chick in a powder blue skirt with a bouffant hairdo on the side of the road. You don't need someone from Jim Morrison passed her by. You don't want anything from the past.
28:35🔗CallerMy question is, I am a recovering heroin addict. I've been sober for about two months and I wanted to know what the likelihood is I would experience a relapse in the future.
28:44🔗DrewYou're a heroin addict. How are you recovering? How are you treating the heroin addiction?
29:24🔗DrewWhen she's asking you, there are relapses and there are relapses. I mean, there are slips, really. And slips, most people slip in that first year at some point. It's a very difficult year. And the key is to stay in the program and to keep working at it. And eventually, sort of sobriety takes hold.
29:39🔗AdamSpeaking of sobriety in the program, I was watching a little Bobby Brown special tonight with Whitney Houston.
29:49🔗DrewOh, well, well, he'll be up here, won't he? Well, I wouldn't count on it.
29:53🔗AdamI don't want to count on it. He's supposed to come in next week.
29:55🔗AdamBobby seemed fine. Whitney seemed like, well, I don't know what she ingested or what she is ingesting or has ingested. I would hope it was something like people do that. All that stuff where they're like, hey, man, I've been taking drugs. It's like, oh, oh, you better hope you've been taking drugs. You better pray you've been taking drugs because other than that, you have a golf ball sized tumor that's putting pressure on something in your brain or you just, something's wrong with you. Yeah, you need to be institutionalized. So you should actually be working the, hey, I've taken a lot of drugs angle.
30:36🔗AdamIt's like those people, it's like, I wasn't drunk. Oh, you mean you're just a world-class jack-off? Oh, really? You should say you were drunk. That's a good excuse. I just use it. I use it all the time.
30:49🔗DrewDoing nothing, it's 100 percent. And I would predict that you must be doing something already anyway, like smoking pot every day or something.
30:55🔗CallerThe only thing I did was I moved. I moved from where I was to somewhere, and I don't think I can find any here. That was the only thing I really did.
31:01🔗DrewYeah, but you must be doing some, you just must have switched to something else, heroin, to pot or alcohol or something.
31:08🔗DrewAll right. So you're on marijuana maintenance. You're not, this is, you're already in it. You're just going to switch, you know, you're going to either increase the pot or switch over to something else. You're still very, very active.
31:16🔗AdamNancy, you've been listening to the show since 12 and this is what you do?
31:20🔗CallerWell, I didn't intend to do it, obviously. I hung out with a lot of people. I made some stupid choices.
31:26🔗AdamYeah, I know, but you've been listening to the show since 12 and this is what you've been doing.
31:30🔗DrewI think what Adam means is, what did you think I was going to say?
31:33🔗CallerI have no idea. I just wanted your opinion.
31:38🔗AdamYou listen to the show, right? What do you think? Yeah.
31:43🔗DrewYou need to get in a program. You need to get in sober living. This is a very, very serious thing. I had an addict die just today. It's a very serious thing. It happens. It's a deadly kind of thing.
32:25🔗AdamNo, it would be virtually impossible to figure out what type of clothing to wear before you left.
32:30🔗DrewIn fact, I'd leave nude. I wouldn't wear clothes.
32:33🔗AdamWell, here's what would happen if there was no goddamn weather on these horrible radio stations in the morning. Drew, it would be the same thing. It would be the clock would say 8 a.m. and you would see Drew leaving his house wearing just a Styrofoam cup and a little duct tape over genitalia and those low socks.
32:54🔗DrewIt would definitely be a strain. No, the belt might be a Styrofoam cup.
33:02🔗AdamA bowl, a Styrofoam bowl over his junk and nothing else with the suitcase. And then you would see. Briefcase. Briefcase, and then at 8 a.m. you would see me leaving my house in one of those Nomex suits they use at foundries when they're like pouring steel with a full hood, silver. The ones guys used to put out oil rig files. Right, right. And full gloves and everything. That's how I would be, because we would have no goddamn idea. Yeah. It would be impossible.
33:32🔗AdamNo, we need retards to tell us what it's like. By the way, do you need, is there anything you need to know less than the weather when you live here? I mean.
34:35🔗AdamYou're not going to talk for several minutes? Announce that you will be not talking for several minutes. So we don't think that there's some problem with the phone line or that someone broke in and stabbed you.
35:42🔗AdamThey, here's the deal, everybody. If you're doing one of those reality shows and you're oftentimes subtitled and you're in the land, speaking the language that the viewers speak, that's a bad sign.
36:01🔗AdamIt's a bad sign when you're subtitled, oftentimes subtitled and you, you ain't out, you know, it's not like you're water, you're not barefoot, water skiing and yelling something at the boat, right?
36:17🔗DrewI know someone's working on the show and they said they got the review as the worst reality show ever. I thought that is a market distinction. I mean, you've got to beat out the Gastineau Girls, beat out, beat out.
36:29🔗AdamYou got to be, blow out. You got to mean everything. Now, I would ensue my show. I would, no, I would still recommend the worst reality show of all time to me is the best reality show.
36:40🔗DrewThat's what I'm saying. I mean, that was like, that's a market distinction.
37:57🔗AdamI just, you know, my instincts are normally good, Drew, but I'm, you know, I know, and you can never stereotype, but once in a while I do and I get a feeling and I've just been 0 for 1000 in this department. Incredible.
39:14🔗DrewSo at least he's not a criminal. Okay, so sort of weird.
39:16🔗AdamLet's get a question. Are you overweight? No. All right, stop acting like it then. This is the work of a fat chick. What's wrong with you? You're 16. If you're not fat, why don't you just hook up with a guy in your home state, possibly even in your high school. It's more convenient that way. Get a regular guy, get a boyfriend. We need some sloppy, drunk, 22 year old guy calling you from a state over.
39:41🔗DrewWho you don't even, you never see. This is bizarre, Kaylee, you understand how bizarre this is.
39:48🔗GuestWell, yeah, I know it's pretty bizarre, but.
39:51🔗AdamWhat's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with your self-esteem?
39:55🔗GuestWell, no, it's just that every other relationship I've had, it's always had drugs and abuse involved in it.
40:03🔗DrewAll right, so this is the alternative, which is to have a non-relationship relationship. Have it with a guy who's actually not even present. Have it with a fantasy guy.
41:47🔗DrewBut also, Kaylee, you've got to get some treatment. If you're going to have a professional life and be able to sustain it without collapsing psychologically from all what you've been through, you might as well get engaged in some treatment right now. Get it going. And in fact, what will happen is, you'll start attracting and be attracted to healthier people. You'll actually have successful relationships. Things will settle down. But get some treatment, for god sakes.
42:10🔗AdamAll right. We'll take a break. A lot of confused ladies tonight. Somebody went through rapid detox. We got a circumcision question. We had a rapid detox question last week.
43:01🔗AdamYeah. Got to get it on. No choice but get it on. 71 Artesia, 71 Rosemead, 71 Irvendale, 71 La Puente, Hacienda Heights. Check it in. 71 degrees. News, weather, weather, traffic, traffic, and weather news all coming in top of the hour. We got Sky Team 5, Chopper 5, Chopper 5, weather, traffic, and news, check it in. Top of the hour, core of the hour, and when it counts, we'll be breaking in with late break in weather, news, and traffic. Like this just in, Sun Valley, 71. 71, so says Chopper 5. Check it in. Sky, Captain Chopper 5. Check it in. With your up-to-date Acu news and weather coming in. Insta-Acu, Acu Instu-Weather, Insta-Acu Chopper 5 weather, Acta Instu-Weather, Super Insta-Acu, Acta Super Super Insta-Acu right now, Dew-Weather, but just past the weather. 71 coming in. Laverne, check it in. Cudahy, check it in. 71 degrees. Temple City, check it in. DeVore, Pomona, 71. Highland Park, check it in. 72? What? No. 71 degrees. Azusa, 71. This is your home for Insta-Acu, Acta Insta-Perma, Perma, Acta Insta-Acu weather. Coming in at the top of the hour, the quarter of the hour, the eighth of the hour, the sixteenth hour, the third second of the hour, 164th of the hour, break it in. And when weather breaks, and when farts break, we'll be checking in with the Acu. Super instant Acu weather sky camp chopper five, okay? Yeah, Jim?
44:47🔗AdamTop of the hour, bottom of the hour, middle of the hour, in the left and right side of every hour, checking in with super Acu checking chopper weather. What's up, buddy?
44:58🔗I wanted to know about the circumcision. What's going on? What's the trend nowadays? I just had a baby boy.
45:12🔗DrewYeah, they do quickly. They're doing it less these days. They do numb the area these days also, so the baby doesn't feel anything. So it's not as though it's anything traumatic. It's fairly clear that the incidence of-
46:19🔗AdamYeah, how many books you have to read on it?
46:21🔗DrewYeah, there are, there's some, I mean, think about the more nuanced stuff coming down the line.
46:26🔗AdamLet me, let me tell you this, Drew, because I run into this every day. Then we got to break away from traffic whether we're going to traffic or not. But here's the thing. A lot of people think it's a virtue to spend way too much time going back and forth, especially in Hollywood, too many e-mails, shooting back and forth, too many phone calls. And it's like, pardon me for being thorough. I'm like, pardon you, I'm going to punch you for wasting my goddamn day. Stop talking about everything and just go do it.
46:53🔗DrewNow that babies need you to be in charge and protect them and feel safe, that's what they need.
47:00🔗DrewNot to be out of control yourself and not know what to do. That's anxiety and that's what kids pick up on.
47:06🔗AdamWell, here's what a kid wants to see. Even if you don't know what you're doing, he wants to see someone who looks like they know what they're doing.
47:11🔗DrewThey want to be calm. They want to be taken care of.
47:17🔗DrewLet's go. Don't drop the truck. Maybe you might. You might.
47:20🔗AdamI think we're going to take a break. We're going to come back with Insta Acu, Acu Insta Top of the Hours, Chopper 5, team coverage, team Chopper Acu weather, Insta coverage of the weather, the traffic, the traffic and the weather news.
47:39🔗AdamLongo Toyota. I'll tell you what. It's Dealing Days down at Longo. Head on down. No reasonable offer or refuse. They're selling Camrys. 50 cents over invoice. So come on down. It's Dealing Days, Longo Toyota. All right. We'll take a quick break. Crack back. We're right back after this. That's what I'm saying. Loveline. I'm Adam. That's Dr. Drew. Bobby Brown may be in here on Tuesday. And then the author of the best-selling book, He's Not For You. I'm gonna tear that guy into a hole. I can't stand those guys. He's coming in after that. And then Rob Zombie is a good old Rob. Haven't seen him in a couple of moons. He's gonna be in here next week as well. I'm gonna have to ask that guy about that book. Because if he starts getting into that stuff where it's like, look, if you call the guy and you call him repeatedly and he doesn't return your call, then he's just not into you.
49:30🔗DrewMaybe he'll launch into traffic and weather.
49:32🔗AdamTraffic and weather or not pack animals. Let me tell you, there are no straight lines in nature in dogs or pack animals. And I believe everything happens for a reason. Stephanie?
49:53🔗CallerUm, well, I kind of have some sexual inhibitions, I guess you could say. The boyfriend I have now, I've been with him for like seven months. And he's really into anal sex or anything anal.
50:07🔗DrewBy the way, that's not an inhibition. That's sort of good judgment.
50:11🔗AdamBy the way, that is a bad rider to tack on to the, he's really into anal sex or anything anal. Or anything anal makes it ten times worse. Or anything anal like anal memorabilia, anal magnets for the refrigerator, stuffed anal animals, big anal fan. Like some people, like Batman. Anyway, he's got an anal coffee mug. I love anus. Yeah.
51:45🔗AdamYeah. Why don't you just, why don't you ask for a nice Cadillac for Christmas instead? You know, it's a taller order. Yeah. The tongue thing, you know.
51:54🔗DrewBe sure you do it in the shower if you do it anywhere.
51:56🔗CallerWell, I mean, we've always, we've always like cleaned with, you know, shower water, you know, first.
52:01🔗DrewAll right. Be that as it may, you're not into it. It's fine. So what? That's not inhibited. You're your boyfriend.
52:09🔗CallerBecause it seems like it's starting to affect, like, the closeness of a relationship now, because we've been here like this.
52:15🔗AdamHe's a weird dude is what that's what's affecting.
52:17🔗DrewHe's in this sort of fetish. And there you go. Yeah. That tends to make people feel less connected in a relationship. It's not like you need to be more intimate with him by engaging in these crazy acts. The fact is, he's asking for fetishistic acts that actually remove the intimacy from your relationship. He can't handle the closeness and that's why he's kind of pulling out.
52:39🔗AdamWhat do you do for what does he do for a living?
53:00🔗AdamWell, we worked at a fudge packing plant out in Pennsylvania for a while. They took the raw blocks of crude fudge and he would pack that into a 55-gallon barrel.
53:11🔗DrewIt's half a few years he was a union fudge packer.
53:57🔗AdamIGER like E. And US. I just thought of myself, God, is this guy just a letter or two off from just a train wreck of a name? You know what I mean?
54:10🔗AdamNiger, Ennis. Like also has got to have is like one glass of white wine and just a little quick little Tourette's flash as they start to say, you know, at the podium. I don't welcome to the stage a great friend, a great author and a great family man. You know what I mean? Yes. Just and you don't be running through your head like a crazy mantra, right? That you couldn't get out and you would end up spitting it out. Yeah. Oh, all right. Yeah. He used to show up on Politically Incorrect all the time. It seemed like every third time I did it, he was sitting next to me.
54:47🔗CallerNice to meet you, Mr. And then I would you said, would you normally sit on the left side of Bill or on the right?
54:53🔗AdamI would. I've sat on both sides, but I always sat on it. At the end, I think I always sat on the left because that's where I call Niger always was. What? What'd you call him? He was a black guy, by the way, which, you know, really sort of compounded things. I forgot. I forgot to forgot to say that. Yeah. All right, Nick, what's up?
55:14🔗CallerHey, what's up? I'm calling back about that rapid OB detox thing.
55:49🔗AdamDrew and I stood in front of the vending machine in the hallway, the radio station, and Drew got the raisinets out of it and then announced to me, wouldn't you rather have goobers than raisinets? And I said, yeah, any day of the week. And then he said, why does this vending machine have raisinets and not goobers?
56:05🔗DrewIn fact, the theaters have, that's often the way it is.
56:07🔗AdamRaisinets are ubiquitous and goobers are a little bit hard to find and the reality is nine out of 10 Americans wants goobers. And then we decided raisinets is a great name and goobers is a horrible name and that's why.
56:30🔗DrewYeah, and my concern for you was the Rapid Detox is great, but my concern is what you're going to do next to sort of deal with your disease process.
56:36🔗CallerThey hooked me up with a psychologist, a psychiatrist, a psychologist. And he just basically told me that if I was feeling depressed, I could just tell him however I was feeling afterward. And he got me on trazodone, or he's going to start me on trazodone. But as far as like, um...
56:53🔗DrewPlease go to Narcotics Anonymous. Please.
56:55🔗CallerNo, no, yeah, no, I know. I know, it's just fine.
56:58🔗DrewGet a sponsor, work the steps. That is the treatment for this disease.
57:01🔗AdamTell us about the process, though. So it was, what was it like? Was it six, eight grand or something? How much was it?
57:08🔗CallerWell, the Wyden Institute down south wanted like 14,000, so we went to Michigan for something like, you know, happened back when the doctor paid in six.
57:20🔗CallerI was the first one in there, they did me, and I woke up, and next to me were two kids at the height of their, like, you know, withdraw, and they didn't want to let me, like, you know, nurses didn't want to let me leave, so I was sitting there watching these kids go through, but.
57:32🔗AdamSo you went in and they put you to sleep?
57:36🔗CallerYeah, basically just put you to sleep, yeah.
57:38🔗AdamAnd they hook you up to a tube or something?
57:42🔗DrewYeah, they breathe for you. Oh, they're alive, you're completely out.
57:48🔗DrewYeah, yeah, it's the general anesthesia. General anesthesia means you're frozen.
57:51🔗AdamNo, I, you know, look, I've, you know, people are confused about it. I used to be, too, there's local anesthesia, like, you know, you get a cavity filled, you get shot in the gum, and then everything else is general to them, but they don't know there's one in between, which is what you get when you get some little outpatient surgery or something.
58:11🔗DrewRight, it's a twilight, they call it, or...
58:12🔗AdamYeah, they put you to sleep, but you're still breathing and functioning on your own.
58:16🔗DrewRight, you're not in for anesthesia, right.
58:17🔗AdamRight, now when I have, when you, like, when you have your hernia surgery...
58:33🔗AdamBut anyway, general anesthesia, and you're out for how long, Nick?
58:39🔗CallerI was out, they said I was quick. I was out four hours, and then woke up, and was completely out of my mind. I didn't know where I was, and but...
58:48🔗AdamAnd in your body, you were watching two guys next to you going through the withdrawal...
58:59🔗DrewNick, are you taking no drugs right now? Are you still smoking?
59:03🔗CallerOh, right now, I'm actually fighting, trying not to go to sleep from the pill that he had given me to go to sleep. I wanted to call you guys first.
59:27🔗CallerThe day I woke up from, like, I suffered two days after, I kinda had a, you know, kinda wanted one, so I took four Norcos and just tested it, which is stupid, but tested it and nothing happened at all. I guess I can't get drunk either, so...
59:41🔗AdamWait a second, Drew's got a look on his face, but wait a second, wait a second, Drew, hold on, hold on a second.
59:47🔗AdamOkay, but the rapid withdrawal, is it, is it a withdrawal?
59:57🔗DrewThey saturate the opioid receptors with what's called an antagonist, a blocker. So they displace all the opiates from his system and hit it with a, in other words, inducing a massive withdrawal, a sudden massive withdrawal.
1:00:13🔗DrewYes, but here's the deal, the withdrawal would have taken him three days anyway, so he's saying he was out of his mind for two days, he could have done all that for $400.
1:00:22🔗AdamI know, but people are so intimidated about the first three days. You always talk about the real work begins after the withdrawal, but people are freaked out about that first few days.
1:00:34🔗DrewThey have a pathological fear of those first few days.
1:00:37🔗AdamYes, well, everything, cigarettes, booze, heroin, whatever, you quit. It's the first few days that everyone is freaked out about.
1:00:50🔗CallerNo, yeah. When I woke up, I was just out of my mind. I grabbed some Norco and I took Norco.
1:00:56🔗DrewYeah, out of the mind thing you went through, you could have gone through something much easier in a hospital and a detox center and be just as done.
1:01:03🔗CallerIt really wasn't the easy way out for me, but...
1:01:05🔗DrewNo, the point is it's not the easy way out. You still went through three days of horrible withdrawal.
1:01:10🔗CallerYeah, but you didn't have the pain of it. I was basically numb and just laying in bed, watching TV, dozing in and out of sleep, rather than cringing in the fetal position.
1:01:20🔗AdamWhat's the NORCO doing? I don't get the power of one second before a NORCO.
1:01:23🔗DrewLet me explain it one second. But Nick, I properly treated opiate withdrawal. You should basically be asleep for about three days, and then you wake up and you're done. Most people do not remember their opiate withdrawal in a hospital and treatment center.
1:01:36🔗CallerI don't even know if I had one, but I assume I did.
1:01:38🔗DrewBut the point is, that's one of my criticisms about the rapid detox is when I often get them after they're through the rapid detox, they end up going through withdrawal for a week. That's worse. They're more encephalopathic, they're more dangerous, more problematic. What Nick takes is an opiate blocking agent that he continues on, and because he was so out of his mind and so craving so profoundly and so desperate, he grabbed a bunch of NORCO, put them in his mouth, but because he was on the opiate blocking agent, didn't feel anything.
1:02:22🔗AdamNo, I just mean it doesn't, it's not a ringing endorsement for rapid detox. I mean, you gotta get on an airplane, at least you did, you have to pay several thousand dollars, you're still out of it for three days.
1:02:34🔗DrewSee, that's money, that money could have been so much better spent, he could have gotten three months of treatment somewhere for that, easily.
1:03:16🔗AdamNo, I just want to take three months. You know? Just go to Betty Ford. Just go there. And it'd be like, what's your drug? Ah, no, no, no. I'm going to be drinking my red wine. I don't have a problem like you people.
1:03:34🔗AdamMy medicine. I need my medicine. Group, no, encounter group? No, no, group? No, no, no. But yeah, I got my TiVo. I got my red wine. You got to pool, because it gets hot out in Palm Springs. I just need about 12 weeks just to kind of get my head on straight.
1:03:58🔗AdamAnd I need time. And you know what? I could do it at home, but the phone rings. Old lady wants something. Dog needs to be fed. Everyone's got an idea. You know what I mean?
1:04:07🔗DrewYeah, this way, at least it gives you a reason to be unavailable.
1:04:10🔗AdamYeah. I'm going to Betty Ford. And it would be awesome, too, because people would be like, Adam said, he was actually just tired. He wanted to read. Oh, people leave you alone. It would be awesome.
1:05:51🔗AdamYeah, that's that's say. Someone's going to fall on a sword. Tell you that right now. All right. Well, that's good. And what were you molested or something when you were younger?
1:06:25🔗GuestBut apart from that, it was unhealthy.
1:06:28🔗AdamAll right. So when do you want to when do you undergo the surgery? So the whole time you were on the, you know, whole time you're in school and a little boy and everything, you just felt like there was a woman trapped inside of you.
1:07:57🔗AdamYou're turning me on. You're calling from San Francisco, so why don't you just get a gig with the city, like DWP or driving a bus or something, and then the taxpayers can foot the bill for it.
1:08:10🔗GuestI tried. It's hard to get in to be like on the bus or-
1:09:05🔗AdamI know it's impossible to judge, but the people that undergo this procedure like Nicky are in one category. And I have this sort of philosophical view of society, which is there's always going to be a couple of nut jobs out there that are interested in doing whatever. Yeah. I'm more interested in the guys that aren't quite that nutty who are attracted to it or date or marry or hang out with. They're even more interesting. It's sort of...
1:09:33🔗DrewWell, they don't, they don't, you don't talk to them. They're not out there parading around talking about it.
1:09:38🔗DrewThey're the ones who quietly do this stuff.
1:09:40🔗AdamYeah. They're going to work at their jobs and putting their suits on and stuff. And then they sort of, well, I like gay. You know, I like someone, I like someone with those Eartha kid eyebrows and long flowing hair and a penis, but not a big one. What?
1:09:55🔗DrewWell, you don't ever find out about it because no one will ever know that this was a male. He brings his girlfriend to the office parties.
1:10:01🔗AdamI just want to know, like, I understand straight and I understand gay and I understand I like black chicks and big boobs and I like big women and all that. Even the anal guys, all those guys. But this one is just what? Look, are you straight? Are you gay? You want some penis, but you want it in a feminine, you know, you want the penis attached to a sort of feminine form like what the? That's fetish. Let me guarantee you something. I could not hang out with this guy. Impossible. Not because I know what he's into and don't like him because I can't, that kind of guy.
1:11:20🔗DrewMy question, Nikki, though, is if you like being with gay men or men who like female forms of small penises, that's what you like having sex with already and you have found those guys, why go through the sex change operation?
1:11:36🔗GuestBecause I don't care about what's on the inside.
1:11:39🔗DrewBut then you're going to attract a different kind of guy.
1:11:43🔗GuestI'm more about the person. Not really like what's...
1:11:49🔗AdamBy the way, she's more about what's inside. Meanwhile, she's cutting his penis off and putting a vagina. She's not a material person.
1:11:58🔗DrewNo, the outside doesn't matter. What does it matter? I'm more about what's on the inside.
1:12:01🔗AdamI'm going to have my penis certainly removed. It's all about what's on the inside and what's on the inside of me is a vagina. Waiting to come out. Once in a while, I have flashbacks to that guy or girl or whatever the hell it was. I didn't see, you remember when we brought that guy in who had that documentary made about him?
1:12:24🔗DrewIt was a girl who insisted on being a guy.
1:12:26🔗AdamThe angriest person I probably have ever met. Actually, a delightful whimsical combination of super angry and ultra stupid with a nice dusting of sort of religious retardism sprinkled in on top.
1:12:44🔗DrewSociopathy, too. You've been lying to people.
1:12:46🔗AdamYes. God, did I hate that thing. God, did I hate that person.
1:12:51🔗DrewAnd remember, the sex change was gonna solve everything.
1:12:59🔗AdamThis is the most bitter, vindictive, just horrible, wretched person I've ever met. Outside of publicist. Yeah. Let's take ourselves a quick break. We'll be right back after this.
1:13:13🔗CallerHello, this is your radio radio. Loveline will be right back. Everyone is reading James Patterson's Maximum Ride. That's what's made it number one. Check it out at maximumride.com. And you might get to hear yourself in a radio commercial.

Natalie?
1:14:55🔗GuestNothing much, and that's the problem.
1:14:59🔗CallerI guess I'm what you'd call a lipstick lesbian, very feminine, very, I love being a girl, but I love women, and I have a hard time meeting women who are not butch, you know?
1:16:03🔗AdamOr maybe the lipstick lesbians are a little bit harder to spot because they seem more like straight chicks.
1:16:10🔗CallerYeah, don't go to the bars. That's the worst place. What should she do? I mean, she should find friends, and they can introduce you to friends.
1:16:41🔗AdamWhat do you think the percentage, okay, you take your lesbian population, what percentage are lipstick lesbians, or just sort of feminine type lesbians, lesbians that like to put on high heels and lipstick?
1:16:56🔗CallerYeah, it's probably like a 30 percent to 70 percent.
1:17:10🔗AdamThere's just a sort of chicks that are like, well, not a dyke, not a full blown diesel dyke, I'm not a lipstick lesbian, I don't care. I think that's what I would be if I was a lesbian. Sweatpants lesbian.
1:18:17🔗AdamYeah. Those chicks are, you know, they're always a little obnoxious and they smell too much of perfume, but they're sort of hot. They get the cuties back there sometimes. All right. Hey, Natalie, we don't know where to find you.
1:18:34🔗AdamAnd, you know, what can we say? I mean, look, it's no different than if you're straight and you're looking for people. Don't go to a bar. Right. Talk to people you trust. Let them, you know, put the word out there.
1:18:47🔗DrewAre there any, Michelle, any sort of telltale hobbies or activities or anything that black powder rifles? Oh my God. Well, that's that's the kind that she doesn't like.
1:19:17🔗AdamMalls good. What's a, what's a job for a lipstick lesbian? Like, you know, for, like for, like if you're a gay guy, you have, you know, you have to, some stereotypical jobs, but there's a reason, there's a stereotype of flight attendant, publicist, publicist, publicist, publicist, publicist, publicist, publicist, publicist, flight attendant, hairdresser and publicist. Yeah, if you're gay, there's certain jobs you just would do as a gay man. Is there, do you have any, is there any lipstick lesbian gigs that we should know about?
1:20:45🔗AdamOh, right, you're going to be 17. Okay, what's up?
1:20:48🔗GuestWell, I watched Dr. Drew's TV show last night, and I was wondering what effect that female sex patch he discussed would have on someone with regular sex drive.
1:20:56🔗DrewThe testosterone patch? It's not, yeah, this is what that is, the testosterone patch. And it's not been studied. And that's one of the concerns people have, is that that's one of the reasons the FDA is holding off on approving it. They're worried that people will start using it sort of recreationally or in sort of inappropriate situations. Obviously, the kinds of things you would get if you were creating higher testosterone levels than normal would be masculinizing effects. So you'd start having hair growth in the wrong places and your voice would lower. You understand? Your sex drive would get a lot higher sometimes, but you would get a lot of other side effects that are less desirable. Clitoris enlarges, lovely things like that.
1:23:18🔗AdamSo it's amazing checking in 71, 71 over in Carson, Duarte 71, Monrovia 71. I like when they crack them. Cerrito checking in 71.
1:23:26🔗DrewTraffic and weather brought to you by Traffic and Weather.
1:23:28🔗AdamHey, we got traffic, weather, weather, traffic, traffic, news, traffic, weather, top of the hour. This week's sponsor, Traffic is sponsoring news this week. And the news is gonna go ahead and put the bill for traffic. And then weather is sponsoring traffic, news and weather this week. I tell you what, look out for brake lights in the 405. Watch out for the four pass.
1:23:47🔗CallerI'm laughing, but it's a laugh of impatience.
1:24:08🔗DrewNo, zero. Zero. If there were significantly beneficial, we'd be using it all the time. In fact, as it doesn't work. The only significant advance we've had in the last couple of years is a medicine called Campral that hits the GABA-A receptor in the drive centers of the brain. It actually reverses some of the change.
1:24:25🔗AdamGABA-A up in Chopper 5 at the Mega Action News.
1:24:29🔗DrewIn Campral, you have to take two tablets three times a day, but I've had some dramatic response with that medicine. In fact, I was talking to one of my patients today.
1:24:35🔗AdamWhat is aversion therapy? You throw up if you touch alcohol.
1:24:40🔗AdamDoesn't work, they push through it. What does it do?
1:24:43🔗DrewIt just doesn't, it makes you not wanna, listen, alcohol is its own aversion therapy. You drink, you vomit, people all never drink again, and you do. Yeah. It just doesn't work for these people.
1:24:52🔗AdamThat's why I never make that announcement. I go, I might not drink again, but I always do might. I don't say never.
1:25:13🔗AdamI'm probably not gonna do this for a while.
1:25:16🔗DrewAsk if there were magical, every alcoholic wants an easier kind of way out. Every addict wants to substitute something else for their alcohol. Every addict wants to know why they drink or why they use. This one medication has been very useful. Again, I was talking to a patient today who was constantly prepped for cravings and the cravings went away. She said she had a very stressful and emotional day yesterday, which normally triggers her cravings and she had nothing. It was shocked. It can be very helpful for them. Not to say that that's a substitute for recovery. She has to go to sober living. She's working a program, but it's a good adjunctive therapy and a new advancement to the cognitive behavioral interventions and the 12-step.
1:26:04🔗DrewYou're searching for a way out. There are things that work. We know what works. Go take the treatment.
1:26:10🔗AdamWhat about the Kabbalah? You got that piece of string tying around your hand. It's awesome, man. That's the Kabbalah.
1:26:19🔗DrewWhatever. Here's what I understand. What do people think that those of us that work in this field are doing? Are we withholding effective treatments? Are we willing to try? We try everything, anything we can do to help these patients. And there are certain things that work. And that's that. And that's it. And if everything else doesn't work, we would use it. We'd use it like crazy.
1:26:42🔗AdamWell, here's the problem. One is people don't want to do the work, whether it's getting sober or it's going on a diet, you know? I mean, think about what the diet pill, fad diet, fad workout, whatever industry is every year versus look, there's a stretch of beach down the street from your house. Feel free to run on it. And here's some brocca flower. You can munch on on the way. Well, who the hell wants to do that? So then comes this industry. And it's that way with, you know, just about everything. And I don't really blame people. And then the problem is, is 2020 does some sort of story once in a while on some diet pill out of France and uh-oh. Yeah, maybe this is it.
1:27:27🔗DrewYeah, not only that, but here's it then. But it's the same thinking that, oh my God, they put me on a diet pill. I had to go sue them. And I went, wait, no, come on. We know it works.
1:27:36🔗AdamPlease come on. All I'm saying is, as long as there's somebody out there that has a less painful and easier avenue for you to go down to, you become like water just flowing down the street. You hit an obstacle. You're not going over it. You just get diverted. You're just looking, oh, you just want an easier path.
1:28:16🔗DrewThat's why there's a million diet books out there, I guess.
1:28:18🔗AdamRight, and they never, whether it's grow hair where there was none before or lose inches without doing sit-ups or whatever it is, you know, look 20 years younger over the night. They, there's part, there's a part of them in the back of their mind that probably realize it's not going to work.
1:29:00🔗AdamSome of them work, but I won't tell you which ones. So you got to try them all. Yeah, nothing works. If they work, they'd be $7 million a bottle.
1:29:10🔗AdamAnd every, every, every one of those, every one of those guys in the, all the Sultans and the other guys, all those guys, they would gobble up the entire market. We wouldn't have any. Yeah. Yeah, they don't work, Dave. What are you coming in at? Well, what size is your penis?
1:29:38🔗CallerI'm normal. That's normal. All right. Does the size matter or is that like-
1:29:42🔗DrewNo, it doesn't matter. What matters is about your self-esteem and your sense of your own worth and your purpose and place in life. So why don't you work on that and all of a sudden, magically, the penis will be much less important to you.
1:30:16🔗AdamNice. You know, I store all my tension in my back, they always tell me, as opposed to a shoe box that I keep under my bed or my eyelids. Yeah.

It gives you an inch in length and then he sews a basically a pop tart under the skin, it's cadaver tissue, and gives you another inch in girth.
1:31:19🔗AdamIt was awesome. I was like, hey, can we have some decent coffee in this dump? Because Drew and I are coffee drinkers and we work late night and they're like, let me think about it. No. And then I was like-
1:31:40🔗AdamAnd before you know it, someone spent eight bucks on something. Radio is such a dump by the way. It's nothing like TV. Oh my god. Here anyway, here's the point. We wanted some decent coffee. They said no. And we ate the bad coffee for like eight years. And then eventually I said, we're going to need some good coffee or I'm going to quit. And they're like, well, now we're going to think about it. And then I really threatened to quit. I said, look, either we're getting a Starbucks and we're not paying for it, by the way, or I'm going to quit. And then my agent said he would pay for it. So I wouldn't quit. But then I told him he couldn't pay for it because he probably is, by the way. But I told him it's principle. I want the station to pay for it. And eventually I think they broke down and got us some coffee. Is that what happened? It's awesome. Yeah. You know, here's the radio station. It's like, radio stations like the NRA. They just fight on everything. And then you never bring anything up again. Like here's the deal. You work for a radio station. You shell out 15 bucks for some batteries because you're out on the road doing some remotes or some DAT tapes or something. It's like, yeah, you guys owe me 15. We're going to need invoices on that in triplicate. OK, where's the where's the. There should be. We're out of the invoices. You're going to have to have those drafted by your own attorney at your own cost. They get they they they nickel and dime you to such an extent that the next time you go out and buy your batteries and DATs on the road, you just eat it.
1:33:09🔗AdamThey beat the crap out of you and you just start eating it. They're like the NRA. We go, look, we want to make these grenade launchers with the 50-round banana clip. Oh, no, not so fast. And then you argue about it for such a long time. And then later on, you want to talk about some real topic. You can't even do it. That's what radio does. They, they, they, they, they cry like stuck pigs over some goddamn coffee. And you're now you're scared.
1:33:33🔗DrewCould you imagine what insurance companies do too?
1:33:35🔗AdamRight. Now can imagine, imagine going down the hole and saying, hey, you know, we'd like some crackers too. Oh, forget about it. That would be a six month battle. Now you couldn't do that.
1:34:36🔗AdamI wanna thank, who do I wanna thank? Engineer Anderson for doing a fantabulous job all week. I wanna thank Michelle for doing a great job, and engineer Chris and producer Ann, and junior, junior, junior, junior, junior, producer Lauren. Only five juniors.
