1:25🔗VoiceoverI'm Adam. That's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. Dr. Drew, board certified physician, Dixon Madison Specialist. What's up there, bud?
1:50🔗AdamAnd the TLC show, they have to film all these sort of, you know, it's one of those slice of life shows.
1:57🔗DrewRight. And you got to patch it together somehow.
1:59🔗AdamYou got to patch it together somehow. So every Saturday, I have to sit and be interviewed. But someone just puts a camera in front of me and asks me things, and I just wax on for about an hour and a half, and then they use eight seconds.
2:11🔗DrewSo let me get this straight. It's just you talking, something you hate.
2:16🔗AdamWell, I just don't, you know, I don't like having to perform, and I don't like having to rehearse, but I don't mind the part where I just, yeah.
2:24🔗AdamYeah. Let me tell you this, speaking of TLC, TLC is awesome. TLC is, I mean, Comedy Central blows, and MTV always blew, and every place that I've ever been associated, oh, K-Rock. This station sucks. All the radio stations have always sucked.
2:43🔗AdamWell, TLC is, you know, they're getting billboards, and they're getting commercials, and doing all that stuff. But something that reminded me of you is they're like, yeah, we're going to do with these big campaigns at the football games, college games, and pro games. We want you doing the coin toss at the UCLA game on the October 1st. And I said, oh, excellent. Drew, that's over at the Rose Bowl.
3:10🔗DrewPractically. A lot of people don't know that. Every Saturday, my wife lives in the Rose Bowl.
3:13🔗AdamYeah. Big UCLA fan. And Drew is so profoundly P-whipped that he is forced to root for UCLA, even though he went to medical school at USC. And then when UCLA plays USC, he's forced to sit with the UCLA.
4:15🔗AdamAnd then when you you know, when you go through the rosters of the NFL teams and you see all the Amherst alumni on there, I mean, practically practically the whole Ravens defense. I'm not mistaken, not mistaken. No, just please. Ray Lewis.
4:33🔗AdamAnd I'm I'm I'm pretty I'm pretty sure a lot. I mean, some of the guys have retired, of course, but replaced by others.
4:41🔗DrewI mean, yeah, just a constant, constant farming. Those.
4:44🔗AdamYeah, I think I think it goes Amherst in terms of teams that have college teams, programs, college programs. I think Miami, Miami. I think Florida State is up there in USC, Nebraska, but it's clearly we dwarf all those. Yeah, I think Tony Saragusa went to Amherst. Do you know Tony Saragusa? How is it, you know, so little. Tony Saragusa? No, no, maybe it could be funny.
5:21🔗AdamTony Saragusa is like the 400 pound Italian nose tackle who was playing for the Ravens when they won the Super Bowl, when their defense was so dominant three years ago. He's in all these TV commercials. He's just a mammoth guy from like Long Island.
5:40🔗He's the one that in that really bad deodorant ad and he goes into the club and everyone falls down and then he puts it on. He does this dance move where he's jumping on his hand at the end.
5:47🔗AdamDrew, do you realize that fully three quarters of your life is spent with people explaining things to you that goes on in the world?
5:53🔗DrewOh sure, in the world. That's right. I'm too...
5:55🔗AdamShe's that actress with the blonde. She was in Herbie. He's that player who used to...
6:02🔗DrewAdam, you only wish you were as cool as to not know what was going on in the world as the way I do.
6:17🔗AdamNo, look, here's the thing. Capitals of cities, street signs, makes of cars, all the things you see in life. They're not really important to anybody. You just know them because they pass through your field of vision. So many times you end up, you know, Geraldo Rivera has a huge mustache. Is it important to you? No, to me? No, it's not important to anyone. It's just, yeah, he has a big mustache and so made a big mustache reference. You should theoretically laugh because you've seen Geraldo Rivera in his huge mustache. All right. You hide behind the important thing.
6:54🔗AdamYes, I like football marginally more than you, although you claim you like football. Anyway, Sarah Goose going to Amherst would have been funny.
7:06🔗DrewI definitely heard Sarah Goose's name. I just couldn't play.
7:32🔗DrewIt's coming soon. Everyone who gets tickets will also qualify to win a trip to see Block Party, who is on the soundtrack. They'll be able to see Block Party anywhere in Europe. That list you're doodling on? All those sites in Europe, they're going to be performing.
7:45🔗AdamWow, that's why I never heard of any of those places.
8:16🔗DrewWe'll be announcing the winner this Sunday. Those of you who hear our Sunday show on Monday, we'll get on Monday. In fact, we'll get contacted on Monday. Yeah. Nightmare on Elm Street.
8:24🔗AdamDon't be a good way to thing to do is to find the slug line of the movie and try to match it to the movie. You know what I mean? Like in space, no one can hear you scream.
8:48🔗DrewThat was a deduction. Give me another one.
8:50🔗AdamThe First to Die with a Lucky. I don't even know what that one was. I always stood out. Now I remember thinking of that one. Well, lucky, but lucky in a relative way, but not lucky like won the lottery.
9:12🔗DrewOh, yeah, there's a new show out where in order to be a criminal, you got to think like a rapist. You see that?
9:20🔗AdamYeah, I know it's the best part about the new fall lineup.
9:25🔗DrewWait, not Mary Nell Street. What do you say? And what was the other one?
9:27🔗In order to catch a criminal, he's going to have to think like a criminal.
9:32🔗AdamYeah, I always like that. And you know the other one too? I like the one where the guy is, you want to talk about F'd Out Premises, where the guys, he hunts serial killers. The problem is he has to think like a serial killer and he has a lot of flashbacks. They're up in his head.
10:41🔗AdamI'm going to need you to change the goddamn spelling of your horrible name so you don't have to keep correct. Well, what do you do? Correct somebody? How many times a week on average? 170 times a week?
10:50🔗CallerProbably. I've had one teacher my entire school career get my name right.
10:55🔗DrewTRL's going to Cardiff, UK. He's going to win this contest, I can feel it.
10:59🔗AdamYou just keep, you go through your whole life correcting people, right?
11:04🔗AdamWell change your spelling then, idiot, so people can pronounce it.
11:08🔗DrewIt's even going to be Dufeldorf, try to explain that.
11:10🔗AdamAll right, all right. Here's all I'm saying. All these a-hole narcissist parents give their kids retarded names, they spell them differently. Of course, no one can make heads or tails of them. So everyone just goes, as a tur-a, tur-a, tur-a, and then you spend your, your child spends his entire life correcting authority, essentially, whether it's the principal, whether it's the coach, later on it becomes a parole officer, becomes a cops, becomes a judge, and all that comes to, you know, transvestites.
11:40🔗AdamYour kid just has to correct people their entire life. Well, here's the deal. Your parents should be fined for this, number one, for whatever you've done to deteriorate society's fabric by having to correct everyone all the time. And secondly, if no one can pronounce your goddamn name, then change the way it's spelled. So you don't have to go through your whole life going, here's, no, no, excuse me, you're wrong. Here's how I pronounced my stupid, retarded, fairy tale made up name, which by the way, we were, we were pronouncing correctly because you made it up. It's just, you've decided to pronounce something differently than phonetically and you made it up. That's the thing.
12:54🔗DrewYeah, you got a retarded name, but no one knows for sure, to tell you the truth. We are assuming that we're gonna see what's something called excitotoxicity, which is something that happens from essentially all hallucinogens. It causes your brain cells to push out chemicals that change the way chemicals come out of the cells and therefore are handled by the cells, and those chemicals that are actually a part of your brain's normal chemistry aren't packaged and contained normally and break loose inside the cell and create free radicals and destroy the cells. So it ends up causing brain damage. That's the long way of saying that. How much and how much you have to use before you get anything significant, I don't know, but there's plenty of cell damage that occurs just with senescence and aging and you want to keep everyone you got.
13:34🔗AdamRight. Here's the, here's why I have such a head of steam about this name spelling thing is for the first, how long do we do Loveline on MTV?
13:45🔗AdamFive, four, five years. Yeah. For the entire time we did it, I would beg the people who did the phone screening, who held up the card, who had the person's name on it, just spell the name phonetically, so I don't seem like an idiot, because what what would happen is, is I would look up, the only way we knew what calls to take is, I would look up, there'd be a cue card, and it would say S E E E N D Y, and I'd say scene, scene guy, scene, scene, scene, scene, scene, scene guy, scene, scene, scene, scene, scene, scene, scene, and the person is going to go, Cindy. Now I realize I look like a retarded person, because I can't read or pronounce the name Cindy, which sounds very easy. But the reality is, is this idiot spells it completely different, in a way you've never seen before. So you look like an idiot trying to sound it out.
14:39🔗DrewThen they started putting up partial phonetic stuff for you.
14:42🔗AdamI would go back and go ballistic on these people, because I would be like, don't, and they would go, but that's how she spelled it.
14:50🔗CallerAnd I would go, I don't care how she spelled it. Nobody can see.
14:56🔗AdamAll they, they see me mispronouncing a name that everyone's heard of.
15:38🔗DrewBut then they would go to try to put it phonetically into something that didn't make any sense.
15:42🔗AdamI just realized I look like a retarded person because at home, to the viewer at home, I just can't read, I don't recognize the name Cindy. That's what the viewers at home.
15:56🔗AdamNo matter how many times I would say that, they would just snap and it would come back. That's how she spells it. And this brings me to a larger point, which is, let's just sign off on names and move forward. Like words. They're essentially words.
16:09🔗DrewWell, basically they're symbols. They're like letters. They really should be like, we're gonna start changing the shape of A. Well, just to make a scribble, that's an A. That's why A.
16:19🔗AdamBut you don't spell exit 15 different ways on the freeway sign. It would just sign off. That's it. We'll decide which Cindy.
16:36🔗Jackie. I had a question. I recently had a failed marriage due to the fact that I got pregnant by somebody else and it's not going very good. I just wondered what the effects were on boys without mothers. Well, sorry, I'm really nervous. No, no, that's all right.
16:54🔗DrewWait, you want this child to be adopted by somebody? Is that what you're saying?
16:57🔗No, I want to just give it to the father that I got pregnant by.
17:12🔗DrewHorrible, I guess. Were you just raising a orphanage?
17:15🔗Okay, I listen to you guys every single night. Yes, you guys could play a million games with me and you all would win. So we don't need to go into this.
17:38🔗DrewRight. And actually in a way, you're sort of transforming from an abandoning sort of person that we can't really understand to our hero because the reality is given the upbringing you had, you may not be capable of parenting a child.
18:05🔗DrewNo, Jackie, you realize you were damaged growing up and it may affect your ability to be a parent and maybe the dad would be a better person to do the job. Perhaps. So there really is a question in this situation, what would be better for the child? And you can't really predict those things, but it doesn't sound like a great situation.
18:21🔗AdamWell, let me just backtrack for a second. You were in a marriage.
18:26🔗CallerYeah, for seven years to an absolutely very perfect person. And as I left him, I realized that it was wrong. Right.
18:34🔗AdamWell, you couldn't tolerate it. You couldn't tolerate it because it was intimate, it was stable, and you need chaos because of your background.
18:43🔗CallerExactly. And I created all the chaos. I'm supposedly bipolar and all that. And I know I'm crazy. I realized that I have episodes. I freak out. I cry. I do all that.
18:53🔗AdamAll right. Let me just get a little history here. Do you have any children from this guy?
19:00🔗CallerYes, I have two. I have a four-year-old and a three-year-old from my first husband.
19:04🔗AdamAll right. Well, you have now. Now there's three kids. Yes. All right. I suggest punt, pass and kick competition. Let's see how far we can get them away from you via the old yes, you have an eleven-year-old now representing the Minnesota Vikings, Timmy Johnson, crowds cheering, he's punting the four-year-old. See, that's what we do with the three, which is just face them, whatever your best neighbor is, whatever your favorite, whoever doesn't have a swimming pool.
19:37🔗CallerThey're doing fine. I mean, I'm really not a bad mom. I'm not. I do the best with my kids that I can, that I'm physically able to and the mental ability that I have.
19:47🔗AdamI know you're doing the best you can. I remember a raccoon would do the best a raccoon could too.
19:53🔗CallerYou were talking to this one girl and you called her like a neurotic, crazy person with intelligence and I'm like okay that's kind of what I am. I have intelligence. I know I'm crazy. I could talk myself out of it.
20:04🔗DrewWell, let's say you're a neurotic, crazy person with insight, okay? We'll give you the insight.
20:09🔗AdamAll right, so now you have this kid with this other guy and how old is this kid?
20:15🔗AdamFive months. And this other guy, does he want to raise this child?
20:20🔗CallerOh, yeah. He's, we've, he's said it many times, you know, like, if this has to be over and we can't handle each other, I will take this baby. Don't worry about it. I will take him.
20:27🔗DrewWhat about giving the child up for adoption? Is that something you have control over?
20:31🔗CallerNo, I, I just said, I don't, I couldn't, as crazy as I am, there's no way I could mentally handle that. There's no way.
20:39🔗DrewSo you mean you want some sort of joint custody with this guy?
20:42🔗CallerYeah. Like knowing that I would be able to come back to him if I needed to.
20:45🔗DrewOK, well there you go. You know what you need to do. That's what you need to do.
20:51🔗AdamI think that's selfish and unrealistic. What you're doing here is you're jeopardizing this kid's mental health and possible life. So you can have an exit strategy. Like, well, I but I feel you could sleep at night. Like, I could always see him.
21:04🔗DrewAnd by the way, here's how this child is going to do that. Here's how this child is going to feel, which is she kept those two, but not me.
21:16🔗CallerNo, it's a boy. That's the question. I know I've heard you.
21:19🔗AdamOkay. Adoption for this child. Here are the two choices. Adoption or if this guy, and I imagine this to be a fantasy answer, this guy who is the father, biological father, is stable, has a job, can stay in a committed relationship with sane people, has a home, has a safe environment, is a loving parent, is responsible. Is this guy all the above?
21:49🔗CallerYes. I just bought a house at the beginning of the month. I just bought a car, I mean he just got his raise. You know, I mean we're all doing really good.
22:13🔗AdamI know you keep saying we, but I thought you're getting out of there.
22:16🔗CallerI don't know what to do. That was my question, is my son going to be really messed up if I were to leave him? And would it be better if I just go into the military and make my life better that way?
22:59🔗CallerHe makes at least 60 or 70 by himself.
23:02🔗AdamDrew, look at him. Excited. Oh, I was kidding at 38, Jack Hall.
23:06🔗CallerNo, he works, he's a superintendent for construction site that does air conditioning.
23:12🔗AdamAll right. Well, he's he's on Easy Street then. Yeah, he shows up to work and a mink line rolls rolls every day and the roll of carpet out is His Highness approaches the construction site. I know. Wait a second.
23:31🔗AdamNow hold on. This guy. You know why? You know why? I'm only mean when people that are effed up, crap out multiple, multiple kids, because let me just give everyone a quick speech. Please let me give everyone a quick speech. The only troubles we have in society is this. All the folks that were left behind in New Orleans, all the people on the roofs, all the crime, all the prisons. That's all it's filled with. We don't want to talk about it. We pretend like somehow your upbringing has nothing to do with how you turn out as an individual. It has everything to do with it. Every criminal, every person on drugs, for the most part, every repeat offender, everyone who gets into the system, everyone who costs millions of dollars to process, you find all these people, you find abuse, you find neglect. That's all. If we start shaping society that all kids are counted for, all kids are taken care of and that poor people or people with histories of mental instability or who have had horrible, abusive childhoods themselves, limit themselves to get a ton of, it's like lots of therapy versus not so many kids. What we got is tons of kids and no therapy from that person. And now, go look at the Superdome. That's what you end up with. That's it. That's all. When are we going to realize this? And when are we going to address it? I'm sure everyone knows it. Everyone thinks about it. Nobody says anything because everyone's a pussy. What the hell's going on with the phone? So, Jackie. Yeah, I'm here. Yeah. Drew's got three kids. You have three kids. Drew's three kids. We don't have to worry about.
25:33🔗CallerI mean, I grew up in the ghetto, don't get me wrong, but I climb my way out and I have done very, very hard and I've worked my butt off.
25:40🔗AdamAll right. Well, that's the only reason I'm being tough on you. So look, here's the deal. You have your two biological kids are being raised by the air conditioning contractor, and you're going to.
25:52🔗CallerI have joint custody with him. I get my kids every single day. I get off work at 11 o'clock. I have my kids. I get up every single day. I'm with my kids. I drop them off at two o'clock. When I go to work, I pick them up when I get off work. I have.
26:18🔗CallerNot like now, but within the next couple of years, I really do want to go into the military. And I've heard you say, Adam, to this one kid that called in, it was like 19, you have nothing better to do with your life. You're worthless drug addict. Get off your ass. Sorry. Get off your butt and go into the military.
26:32🔗AdamThat's good. That guy didn't have three kids. He was supposed to be a mother till.
26:43🔗DrewGet off your butt and be a good mom. Commit yourself to that.
26:47🔗CallerBut with having such a problem in my brain, I sometimes feel like I'm not capable of anything. Right.
26:55🔗AdamNo. That's why, here's the thing, Jackie. You were abused and that's a tragedy. You were badly abused and that's a tragedy. And at a certain point in your life, you were a victim. Now, you're not a victim because you crapped out three kids that you're not interested in or that you're not chemically or emotionally able to take care of. And that's why I'm yelling at you. If you would take the clock back 20 years, I'd be yelling at the guy that was abusing you for what he was doing to his child. Now I'm yelling at you for what you're doing to your children. You see, it's called a cuna matata.
27:43🔗AdamYeah, you knew it after the first one, but you still had two more. B, do your work, baby. Therapy, whatever it takes. And three, your job is being a mother to these three children.
27:55🔗DrewAnd if you can't do it, I still think adoption for that one kid, sooner the better. Not after six months of age, though. No way.
28:02🔗AdamYou let a welder raise this kid, and you're gonna go off to the military.
28:07🔗DrewOn the other hand, the fact that she can't tolerate being with the welder almost is an endorsement to his capability, possibly. At least we know he is not crazy enough to be interesting to her.
28:17🔗AdamYeah. Now look, here's the deal, everybody. Here's how it works. Here's the math equation. You stop the Jackies of the world from cramping out the kids. We have a utopia in about 25 years. No more prisons, no more judges, no more courts, no more nothing. Leave your doors open at night, everybody. Leave your briefcase on your car seat, the windows roll down because that's it. That's how it works. Nobody wants to talk about it. Nobody wants to think about it. You think somebody gets born into poverty with abusive family and an absentee father's got the same shot in life as one of Drew's kids? Of course not. It's not even close. I don't know why that can't be looked at. I don't know why nobody figures these things out. I think the government is aware of it. I just don't think they do anything about it. All right. They're too busy telling you how fast to drive, what license plate to have on the side of the car, too busy putting goddamn cameras up at the intersection to go ahead and get into topics that really matter. You all disgust me.
29:31🔗AdamReady for something new? Try Durex Tingling Condoms. There's sex, and then there's Durex. Yeah, it's Love Line with Adam. That's Dr. Drew, phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. You ready to rock, Drewski? Ready to go, Drewski, Bob? I swear I was laughing over the weekend, trying to think about David Allen career, naming off.
30:25🔗Drew100 micrograms of ethanol estradiol, which is the progesterone, it's the levonagestrel, and where is levonagestrel? Or the northendron.
30:37🔗CallerNorthendron, put that whiffle ball back down, come in the house. I'm so behind, I'm sick of these kids, man.
30:49🔗AdamI am telling you, for my birthday, I want you to get a list.
30:57🔗DrewBecause I want to get around to it sooner.
30:58🔗AdamTo come to my home, I will invite David and you. I will tell David I'm throwing a Christmas party, but I won't invite anybody but him. He's going to show up and be like, what's happened? I don't smell any turkey or anything. It's just going to be him and you. And you're going to have to print out 700 names for hormones. They're in birth control pills. And then you're going to read it to him. And he's just going to repeat it to me as a black name.
31:24🔗DrewAnd we'll do it sort of like in rounds, like a boxing match. They'll stop, they'll break, they'll come back in.
31:30🔗AdamA little gatorade and then they'll come back. Because when we did it last, whatever, Wednesday or Thursday, we probably, what'd you have, about five or six of them?
33:23🔗DrewYeah, I'll write them up. We'll have like somebody else. Yeah. We'll have people that normally sit around this show and announce them because they don't. They don't laugh.
33:30🔗AdamYeah, that's true. Yeah, we'll get Anna or Lauren.
33:33🔗DrewYeah, Lauren. Perfect. It will be perfect.
33:54🔗Well, I have a bizarre situation, I guess. I work in an adult store and one of the customers and I, we started off flirting and have kind of progressed and have started seeing each other.
34:06🔗DrewHow do you flirt with somebody when you're like a clerk at a?
34:09🔗AdamWell, she's not necessarily a clerk. If she's cute, she may work at the peep show or something.
34:15🔗No, I do work in an adult store. And he's just a really nice guy to be.
34:38🔗DrewIt's like you'd be up as high as possible. It's like those guys run around.
34:41🔗AdamIt's like a cabbie dispatch or something like you got to step up four stairs and you have to approach the bench. You want to buy dildo. Please approach the bench with your anal plug. I mean, the thing, the counter is like 11 feet high.
34:55🔗DrewI kept saying if you had to work in that store, you know.
34:58🔗AdamOh, yeah. You want to pay the guy. You just pull your wallet out. You jump up and throw it over your head. You do like a skyhawk.
35:04🔗DrewYou work at a swamp. You sit in the swamp.
35:06🔗AdamThat's right. Yeah, it's like being a swamp bugger. It's awesome. So you're up. You're behind the counter.
35:11🔗DrewHow does that conversation go? What are you flirting about?
35:36🔗AdamYou know what? I noticed you had Ass Masters 1 through 14. I noticed 12 wasn't there. Out of print. Can you back order? Okay. And Yabangus Uranus would be in the same? Thanks, sweetie. Hey, what's your name?
35:57🔗No. I mean, he asked us different questions as far as the different videos, but it was basically as he was leaving one night, he said, you look really good tonight. He's not creepy as far as looks or his attitude or anything. So we just start talking and he's a regular. He comes in about every night.
36:17🔗AdamAbout every night. And he's not creepy or anything. But what is he doing there every night? I mean, here's my whole thing.
36:24🔗DrewHow much creepier do you need to be, by the way? Who?
36:26🔗AdamAll right. I got a ton of things to say. Who is renting porn in this year of odd five? You know what I mean?
36:32🔗DrewAnd doesn't look on the web or something, you mean?
36:35🔗AdamA disc is like $4 and you can get it like at the gas station or the car wash or something.
36:42🔗AdamWho's like going in and renting pornography? Or if you're buying pornography, let's go ahead and plop down 60 bucks, walk with eight or 10 titles, and then hunker down in the spankatorium for a few weeks. What is this part where you're going in every night?
37:45🔗We've kissed, that type of stuff. But their bondage, their anal, their stuff, I'm not into. So, what I'm concerned about is...
37:55🔗DrewWell, you know, in a way, it is a little sort of a diabolical quality to this. The guy sort of declares himself upfront. That's what this guy's into.
38:03🔗Well, but my question is just because if he's renting that, is that something he'll want to actually do or is he just...
39:18🔗AdamWell, no, you have to be. I have seen some nursing students that just, you know, when they put the scrubs on. Well, I have seen them look like an apartment that was being fumigated.
39:31🔗DrewThe sheet's been thrown out of the furniture.
39:33🔗AdamNo, I'm talking about the actual building that's been tented.
39:49🔗DrewWhat kinds of heritage tends to go with choosing that sort of career? Abuse. And then the abuse goes into keeping people away with the big body.
39:57🔗AdamYes. I mean, here's the thing. You could, once in a while, you get a crazy Asian nurse and they go 80 pounds.
40:13🔗AdamI don't trust this guy. I don't like the idea that you're working in a porn store. I don't like the idea that you're thinking about dating the anal fetish guy.
40:33🔗AdamYou're a little bit desperate, and this guy's sort of gobbling you up. There's nothing wrong with you. You can have real relationships with real guys. You don't have to work at a porn store, and you don't have to date the dregs to come into the porn store. You were physically abused. That means your parents are bad guys, not you're a bad guy. You understand?
40:53🔗No, I wasn't abused by my parents. I was molested by my cousin growing up, and then I've been through two very serious domestic violence issues, and they were pretty bad.
41:08🔗AdamForget about your parents, but you're looking for number three. You're going to get the hat trick of domestic abuse if you hook up with Mr. Anal Bondage guy.
41:17🔗AdamLet's get a gig somewhere other than in a porn store. Focus on your nursing. Just have a normal thing. Let me tell you something, ladies. There's a nice guy out there for all of you. There absolutely is. Any ones who don't feel great because you don't look as good as you'd like to look in a skirt or a pair of ski pants, there's plenty of guys for you too out there. You see them everywhere you go all day long. Go to the mall. There's some guy and he's got some chicks. He's got a big ass and who cares?
42:27🔗DrewI want to remind people that all callers who get on the show tonight will receive two tickets to see Cry Wolf. And this movie is about a group of students who exploit the news of a recent murder. Their seemingly harmless prank turns terrifyingly real as a killer stalks them one by one. Basically, as Adam said, this nightmare in Elm Street makes weird science. They create an online character to try to freak everybody out, and it comes true. And everyone who wins, everyone who gets tickets tonight, everyone over 18 who calls, qualifies to win a trip to see Block Party from the movie soundtrack. They have a movie soundtrack called Cry Wolf, interestingly. And they will be able to follow them anywhere in Europe. They've got a huge tour. We've got a list of like 40 different cities they're going to be in. You can follow them anywhere. And the movie comes out this Friday. You Lie, You Die.
43:38🔗AdamYou ain't as you bangus. You ain't as you bangus. You ain't as that might be nice. If I ever do a movie, that's going to be the slug. No, I know just to create a little confusion and buzz. What is this movie? You bangus Uranus.
45:30🔗A woman is in the hospital with third degree burns tonight after she tried to kill a spider colony in her garage. She had discovered the colony had first decided to kill them using hairspray. When this didn't work, she tried to burn them with her lighter. This explosive combination caused her garage to blow up and left her with severe burns. Germany or Florida.
46:25🔗AdamYeah, I like that. You know, the Germans have a rich history with incineration of people. Normally, the Germans like to just burn people. I mean, that's their thing. Like, hey, let's round up Jews and burn them. That's that's their thing. You know what I mean? That's what they're great at. That's that's, you know, that and cars. They make good cars, but they're even better at burning human beings. That's what Germans normally do. But in this case, I'm going Florida.
47:12🔗Please. OK, at the end of last year, like the very last Best Of, like he played a really like a weird little clip, like of a bunch of drops of you guys, and it was really funny.
47:27🔗CallerI don't know what that is. I'm sorry. Bunch of I remember I was running. I was running short on one of them, and I played that song that I made of you, Adam, called Millionaire.
48:41🔗AdamPhone number, 1-800-L-O-V-E-1-9-1. There's Dr. Drew, I'm Adam Corolla. I've got myself a little show out on Comedy Central called Too Late with Adam Corolla, or Too Late with Moi. As I like to keep with the French team. Monday through Thursday, 1130. Drew?
49:27🔗DrewMakes me sick. You're fat. You're fat. Can I say that? You're fat. I can say it. You're overweight. I want to be dominated. You're gay. I want to be dominated. You're gay. When I was 19, I ate about four boiled peyote buttons and stayed up all night but felt no effect. It's called intimacy. Can I say that? This is not acceptable. Can I say that? You're fat. Pee on this stick. Boiled peony button. You're overweight. Can I say that? That's a good one.
52:15🔗CallerI mean, because that's all the world is.
52:19🔗AdamDrew is so jealous of my peckeroo. I'm the smartest of all the blue collar guys, and I'm stupid. The point is, if I can do it, anyone can do it.
52:32🔗DrewMy boyfriend is literally a millionaire.
52:55🔗CallerWell, first of all, I just want to tell you guys that, Dr. Drew, I think you're brilliant. And Adam, what you were saying earlier about parents and how their actions affect their kids, I just think is right on. And I just wanted to let you know that first of all. My question is, it was March of 2004, I realized that I had a severe drinking problem and I admitted myself into a rehab for four days. Basically, when I wouldn't drink, I would get tremors so bad, I thought I was having a heart attack.
53:29🔗DrewWell, you're having near DTs and that can be a fatal problem, so you have a treat.
53:35🔗DrewWell, true DTs is cardiovascular collapse. You'd be on a ventilator and IVs and a monitoring unit. But the other thing that we've now learned about the alcohol withdrawal syndrome is that when you get significant withdrawal, it looks as though there's actually brain damage occurring as a result of the withdrawal. So there's a medical reason to have your withdrawal treated above and beyond just the safety of suppressing the withdrawal.
53:55🔗AdamWhat made you realize on that date that you had a problem?
53:58🔗CallerWell, it wasn't necessarily the date. It just, it progressed and over time I realized that when I would try to quit drinking on my own, that I would get really sick and I would...
54:08🔗DrewBut his question is very appropriate to you, which is why did you decide you needed to stop? What made you come in that day?
54:21🔗DrewYou've been killing yourself. Listen, I go through this with every...
54:25🔗AdamYou gave us, on March 23rd, 2002, I checked myself in to rehab because on that day, I knew I had a problem. And then you're like, what happened that day? Huh? Oh, I'd been drinking for a while.
54:42🔗AdamI know, but why that day? You started with the date.
54:45🔗DrewYou gotta understand, every single patient enters my unit, I go through that exact discussion. I sort of amuse myself with it because they'll say, I'm just, I got tired, I scared. Well, why today? Well, you know, this has been going on a long time. Yeah, we've been going on like five, eight years. Why today? Why'd you decide to come in today? And denial, part of denial, the way it works is, it prevents them from really feeling the depths of what has happened to them. Now, if somebody's really gonna turn it around, they usually come in because something's scared that something happened that led them to believe they are going to die.
55:16🔗DrewOh, no, she's got it in there. What made you think you were gonna die? Yeah, what made you think you were gonna die?
55:21🔗CallerWell, it wasn't only that. What you said just actually triggered, there was an occurrence the night before where basically I wasn't acting like myself at all. I was trying to break down my back door because my husband locked me out because he realized that I had a bottle of alcohol that I was hiding from him.
56:32🔗DrewStop arguing. You're still mad at Anderson. You're mad at Anderson.
56:34🔗AdamNo, I'm not mad at Anderson. I'm trying to get her to admit that basically the reason she went to rehab is because her husband drew a line in the sand. Yes. She keeps going back to, I just knew it was time to.
57:12🔗AdamSome of the old timers still call it Burbank, but all the new folks that have tried to either drive or walk through the city and have gotten chicken-ass tickets millions of times have changed it to the new name, which is Rape Bank, because that's what the cops do, the citizens over there. But go ahead, Melinda.
57:29🔗DrewThe Burr has an acronym for being Urban Rape. That's what it is. So they shortened it.
57:37🔗AdamYou ever gotten a jaywalking ticket in Burbank, Melinda?
57:43🔗AdamIt's coming. Possibly later today. Also, I hope you made up the name Melinda, because if any city officials from the city of Burbank are listening and realize there's someone who's made it to 19 years of age who lives in their city, who's not yet gotten a jaywalking ticket, they will come after you.
58:06🔗AdamYeah, because their plan is no citizen of this fair city should not receive a jaywalking ticket by their 16th birthday. So this is going to be a Logan's Run type situation for you. And they're not even pulled over for any chicken ass reasons?
58:24🔗CallerNo, actually, I'm not really in Burbank all the time because I go to school in Pasadena. I've just made that choice because I wanted to study art.
58:40🔗CallerWell, I just had a question. I like, I tend to masturbate a lot. I do it like maybe, I don't know, like three or four times a day. Sometimes I'll do it never and sometimes I'll do it all the time. It just completely depends.
58:54🔗AdamLet me write that down. What did you say the first one?
59:31🔗DrewHow old were you when you started doing this?
59:33🔗CallerI was probably in like eighth grade or so.
59:37🔗DrewWere you living in a very chaotic family?
59:40🔗CallerMy dad was sort of, you know, on and off, kind of like he was, it was like a rough upbringing kind of thing. It wasn't like sexually, he was always very.
59:51🔗DrewI understand. But it's one of the things.
59:54🔗AdamHe would come home with 5J walking tickets and be in a horrible mood.
59:57🔗DrewOne of the common phenomenon that develops is children that are living in chaotic and disturbing family systems start to use these kinds of means of self-regulating. Younger kids will masturbate and do inappropriate sexual things in public or towards their peers. They won't be sexual, but they'll be sort of inappropriately activating that system, let's say. And if you come from a very rough family system as an adolescent, it's more common that this kind of thing gets going. Now you could also be bipolar. Was there any physical abuse?
1:00:31🔗DrewYeah. And having been an abuse victim, again, gets this sort of energy going. It doesn't have to be sexual abuse. Sexual abuse would sort of throw much more chaos and character problems into the picture here.
1:00:44🔗AdamPeople want to know why I have such an axe to grind with the city of Burbank. They gave me a jaywalking ticket many years ago for crossing at a light in the crosswalk. And the cop said that I stepped off the curb after the light started blinking, the don't walk thing, even though I still slowly walked across the intersection and stood on the curb on the other side long before the signal changed. And he zipped over the same direction I walked, by the way. He went the same direction behind me after I got on the curb. That's how you know the light didn't change. And he wrote me a jaywalking ticket. And I told him, this is crazy. I'm in the, I'm at the signal, I'm in the crosswalk. I just walked across. I'm standing on the other side. I didn't even know what we're doing here. He said, no, I'm writing you one. And I said, look, here's what we could do. We could save you some time, we could save me some time. I'm going to fight this ticket because I didn't do anything wrong. And he said, knock yourself out. And he handed me the ticket. And went in, made a court date, took two, three trips to the courthouse. I think you pay them in advance, too, and then they give you the money back. And then, the third or fourth time I showed up, then I got my court date. Let me explain the court date. It's not like the judge swings by your pad on a Saturday. You go there Tuesday at noon. And wait, leave whatever job you have. You go get in line. And the chicken-ass cop who wrote me the ticket obviously didn't show up because he had, you know, not a leg to stand on or wasn't interested. And I won. Well, here's what I won. Just because he didn't show up. So I won. So here's what I won. What I win. I didn't have to pay 100 bucks or 80 bucks or whatever it was. What I lost was three, four days of work and a bunch of trips back and forth to the courthouse. I won. Now, here's the way it should work. A, if you win, then you should get paid whatever it is they wanted you to pay. That's how it should work.
1:02:50🔗AdamYou said I did something. You won 87.50. I say I didn't do it. And if we figure out I didn't do it, you pay me the 87.50. Otherwise, what's to stop you from handing out these things all day, every day? Answer, Drew.
1:03:24🔗AdamNo. Whatever. I was just standing there in court looking around for the idiot who wrote me the ticket. The guy never showed up. He just slammed the thing and moved on to the next. He wouldn't talk to the judge? Whatever. I don't know. I told him this is a nonsense. It's just on to the next thing. It's not like I want to approach him in his chambers or something. They got a whole line of idiots they've written chicken ass tickets to. They have to get through that day. But the problem is, is I lost three days of work.
1:03:56🔗DrewI know you should be able to complain about that.
1:03:58🔗AdamI just should be able to get the money back. I need to be reimbursed. You wrote a zero chicken ass ticket. And for that, I took three days off work. There you go. Now the good news is, is I've gotten 7,000 hours of radio talk time about it. But the idea that they wrote me a ticket in the crosswalk at a signal. And everyone I know has passed through Burbank has gotten one of those. And that's why I hate that place. And here's the thing. All I'm saying. Here's all I'm saying. It's time to take the streets back and not from the criminals, from the cops who then need to take the streets back from the criminals. So here's my move. We'll take the streets back, not from the gangbangers, from the cops with the chicken ass tickets. And then you guys go ahead and take care of the gangbangers.
1:04:43🔗DrewI mean, take your detail off the citizens onto the criminals.
1:04:47🔗AdamYes, yes, yes, yes. Let's shift the focus from harassing taxpayers to going after crime. I know it sounds wild.
1:05:20🔗CallerHi. Well, first of all, I just want to say that you guys are awesome. I think you guys are just the best. Everything you say is right on with my beliefs as well.
1:05:33🔗CallerSo, basically, I was just wondering if, I don't know, I think I might have OCD. Like, I get really obsessive, like, with things, like, as far as, like, well, lately, I've just been, like, I haven't been able to be alone. Like, I've been, like, starting relationships, like, one after the next, like, not even getting done with the last one. Like, I've been really afraid to, like, kind of just be alone. So, I don't know.
1:05:57🔗DrewYou've never been like that before, and all of a sudden you became that way?
1:05:59🔗CallerYeah, like, I don't know if that's just the way it's been manifesting itself right now, or...
1:06:07🔗CallerWell, I don't know. Just, I just know that, like, before I used to, like, be, like, really, you know, into being, like, a neat freak, you know? And now, all of a sudden, since I've become older, you know, it's been more like this, like, for probably about the past six months.
1:06:23🔗DrewI don't see that these things are related in any way. That's just, you're 18, you start having relationships, and you're having difficulty really being sort of healthy about it. You're just, you're compulsively going from one to another to another, and I don't know what's, why they're failing. What's happening in these relationships?
1:06:39🔗CallerWell, also, I'm like, I usually only go for much older men.
1:08:41🔗DrewWell, now you sound like you have an anxiety disorder really more than anything.
1:08:44🔗CallerOh, yeah, like I know I have an anxiety problem.
1:08:47🔗DrewYeah, Sharon, why don't you see somebody? I mean, this is something that's quite treatable. You need to form an attachment to somebody, work through some of these feelings, learn to have a relationship with somebody, i.e. a therapist, and you'll start to attract and be attracted to healthier people. And these are not even relationships you're having now. There's some sort of attempt to basically recreate the past or make good in the past, the abusive, unavailable dad. And what you end up doing is being with guys that are abusive and unavailable and old who remind you of your dad, and pow, you just recreate the same trauma all over again.
1:09:29🔗AdamLet me look, you know, all I ask, I ask for two things. It's could the goddamn Patriots lose a goddamn game? Could they just lose one game? And could the Rams beat a crappy team for the home opener or for the season opener? Answer, no and no. That's all. Thursday, I was like, look, here's what I'm looking for. I'm looking for one of these two things to happen. Either the Pats just lose. Could they just please just lose one game? Or could the Rams win? Or, you know, of course I couldn't hope for both, but just be one or the other. And that doesn't really, the opening of football season this week, those are the only two thoughts I have had. I've had no other thoughts than, it'd be nice if the Pats lost for a change. It'd be nice if the Rams won.
1:10:17🔗AdamThere you go. And that's why I don't gamble. Go ahead, David.
1:10:22🔗CallerYeah, I have a three-year-old little girl, and me and her mother split up when she was about a year and a half, 16 months or so. I searched for them for about a year. She kind of hid from me. I finally found her, and I threw a private detective, and I've got a case open for custody battle on her. I found, go ahead.
1:10:48🔗CallerWell, I found that she's been being abused. The GAL that's involved in the case has given me temporary custody for her. It's a GAL?
1:10:58🔗AdamYeah, yeah, yeah. Some arbitrator or something?
1:11:01🔗CallerWell, the mom's been doing it. For instance, whenever I started getting my custody, such as my every other weekend with her, I got her one time with the whole right side of her face was bruised. And she was almost three. She wasn't quite three yet. There's been several other instances. You probably don't have time for them.
1:11:20🔗DrewWhat's the question for us? I got the picture.
1:11:22🔗CallerWhat can I look for? What is going to happen with her? What can I do to help her through this? Because I hear you guys talk about, you know, messed up children and what their parents did to them. What can I do to help her?
1:11:32🔗AdamUpon occasion. Was your, was your wife physically abused?
1:11:45🔗AdamWell, here's the thing. Obviously, there are going to be repercussions. I mean, emotionally, for the kid, the good news is, is you got to her early enough.
1:11:55🔗DrewRight. And you want to create some stability. And you're going to have to create tremendous structure around your wife. I don't know that I would pull the child away from mom because that child, that's her mom. That's, you know, even though the mom was being abusive, those child children want to be with their mom. The problem is containing the mom, getting the mom treated, supervising the mom, and not letting her abusiveness be acted out any further. And I think threatening her with legal action, keeping it very super, the visit supervised, whatever needs to be done, do it.
1:12:23🔗AdamHere's the thing I realized too. When you hire a private detective, it means things are going very well in your life or things are going horribly in your life. I mean, you're either a super rich person who's investigating some other company that you're thinking about buying out or something, or it's just some kind of white trash thing where you think the old lady's banging the supervisor from work. You know what I mean?
1:13:03🔗AdamWould you take that? Like if I said to you, Drew, you can change lives with a person who has an outdoor shower. You'd be like, on one hand, you're picturing sprawling villa with an outdoor shower. On the other hand, it's just a hose hanging off a roof.
1:13:31🔗DrewThe very rich and the very poor have a lot in common, just in many, many ways.
1:13:34🔗AdamWell, here's the thing about super rich and super poor. Outdoor showers, they both have an outdoor shower. They both have upholstered furniture outside of their home. Super poor has got that sofa on the porch.
1:13:57🔗AdamYeah. You know, the other thing that's ironic about the very rich and the very poor, they both own multiple automobiles. Now, middle class families have one or two cars.
1:15:05🔗DrewIt's Loveline, phone number 1-800-LOVE-191. And to reiterate, all callers will get on the air tonight. We're over 18. We'll receive two tickets to see Cry Wolf. You lie, you die. Cry Wolf in theaters everywhere this Friday. Also, those of you that win.
1:15:22🔗DrewAll those of you that win will get qualified to win a trip to see Block Party, who made the soundtrack for this film. And anywhere in Europe you want to see them, you'll be flown out there to see them. It says, I don't know how many tickets you get. I didn't say. Winners will be announced next Sunday for the European trip. And it's a movie about people, some students that create a online cyber murderer who comes to life. Sort of Weird Science meets Nightmare on Elm Street.
1:15:48🔗AdamDuring the bathroom break, Drew and I were trying to figure out other similarities, other things that super rich and super poor shared. And before we left, we were talking that super rich people have multiple cars. And super poor people have multiple cars. So they're rusted out and they're up on blocks. Middle class people have one car, maybe two cars. And outdoor showers was one of them. Upholstered furniture that is outdoors. One is an old sofa that's on the porch. And there's just very expensive pool side patio furniture and all that. We're trying to think of other similarities between super rich and super poor. And here's just a few we came up with. One is the namesake. There's a lot of thirst in the seconds and thirst in the thirds. Super dirt poor people name their kids after the dad. And so do super rich people. Middle class, not so much.
1:16:43🔗DrewLeave it to Jesterl Jr. Ethanol, Ethanol, Estradil, the third.
1:16:52🔗AdamNow the super poor do it to heat, you know, whatever little trashy trailer and cook they're in. But super rich have a lot of fires and stuff in their big, big manners. Again, middle class don't have that many fires and fireplaces. They have heaters. That's right. Both men tend to f around on their wives. They call it a mistress, and they just call the whore.
1:17:16🔗AdamThe lower class just calls a hooker, slut, whore, whatever. Rich guys call it a mistress. But either way, super rich guys and super poor guys are more likely to step out on the old lady than the middle class. Also, interesting one that Drew brought up was alternative to medicines or alternative medicines. Now, super poor guys, they boil some root and they drink that. Grandmama says it's a cure for what? Ails. And then the rich guys just get the animas.
1:17:46🔗DrewWell, they have crazy practitioners and stuff.
1:17:49🔗AdamYeah, they get their chakras aligned and stuff like that.
1:17:51🔗DrewAnd in this part of the country, the very poor has the curanderos.
1:17:56🔗DrewThey do the cupping and all that crazy stuff.
1:17:57🔗AdamOh, the cupping, yeah. And the rich have the homeopathic and that sort of nonsense.
1:18:02🔗DrewBy the cupping thing, we treat severe burns. Nothing creates a burn.
1:18:08🔗AdamThe cupping thing? I mean, where they do the heat, they remove the oxygen from a cup and they put it on your back and it makes a suction. It creates a vacuum.
1:18:20🔗DrewIt creates a blister, which is a burn, a second degree burn.
1:18:24🔗DrewOh my God, it's the toxins coming out of the body. Are you kidding? If you looked at that stuff, did a molecular analysis on that, it's a pus.
1:18:36🔗AdamHere's the deal. Yeah, you're the man. You know what? Because you're a white guy and you have an education. So you don't know what you're talking about. Here's the deal. Your body is filled with toxins. Do you understand? We live in a toxic environment.
1:18:49🔗DrewI love the toxin term comes into everything and it means nothing.
1:18:54🔗AdamIt's zero meaning to you. But tell that to me tomorrow morning when the alarm goes off at 8 15. And I don't feel like getting out of bed. You know why?
1:19:26🔗DrewI've got to get these out of my system.
1:19:26🔗AdamWe live in a toxic environment. And the way God created your body is it only retains toxins, evidently, because everything else goes right through it. So if you ate an ego, all the nutrients of the ego would pass right through. The toxins remain.
1:19:42🔗AdamInteresting. The toxins. Your body stores toxins. Now, you walk around, well, eventually, you get filled with toxins. You can barely move.
1:19:48🔗DrewYou know what I love is I'll take these people...
1:19:50🔗AdamThat's why you need the animal. That's why I got to put a hose up your ass...
1:19:52🔗Drew.links and stories about the toxin. I go, well, what is a toxin? It's just, what is it? Well, it's these bad things everywhere. Give me the name of one chemical or the structure or exactly how it works biologically, biochemically, physically. Well, I'm not a doctor. What do you expect? All right, listen. All right, come on.
1:20:06🔗AdamI can, I know I'm filled with toxins and, you know, I'm allergic to peanuts. And also, also, you know, these these in indoor environmental, I was environmental allergies too. So this carpet makes me tired mold mold. Yeah. Mold. Let me ask you a quiz. Mold, 18 months old or 18 billion years old?
1:20:39🔗AdamThere's nothing that people haven't been living with mold longer than. Yeah. OK. Are you ready to rock? Oh, one other thing. Rich versus super, super poor. They both tend to eat stuff that they may have shot or killed.
1:21:37🔗DrewDefinitely girlfriend. This current girlfriend or every girlfriend you've ever had?
1:21:41🔗CallerWell, I've had two girlfriends within the past since college, which was four years ago, so two girlfriends in the past four years. One of them actually just ended recently. And the reason was was because I got extremely jealous that she went out one night.
1:21:57🔗DrewAlright. Now John, at 17, this would be normal. You know, 17-year-old guys are beaked up on testosterone. They don't have a sense of themselves yet. They feel threatened by every other guy. They're not used to being in relationships. But you get over that by, certainly, I'd say by 25.
1:22:16🔗DrewYou should be pretty much over that by 25.
1:22:17🔗AdamWell, you still have some testosterone going through your veins. You still got something going through your veins, but you should be more reasonable about these sorts of things.
1:22:26🔗DrewRight. Now you may, now maybe you're with somebody who has proven herself to be untrustworthy and that's a mess.
1:22:32🔗CallerThe thing was, I had my very first girlfriend in high school. The way it ended was basically she one day called me and said, you know what? I don't love you anymore. And I don't know what I'm...
1:22:44🔗DrewGuess what? That's what happens to every high school relationship. Somebody calls somebody and goes, I've got to stop this.
1:22:49🔗AdamThat's what happened. One day, one day, it was actually two days from my 17th birthday.
1:23:03🔗DrewOh, that's the one you were with at the time.
1:23:05🔗AdamThat's the one I was with. Yeah, the right hand, or as I call it, the magazine hand, did not... was not there for that. I had to break the news to him. Of course, that was difficult.
1:23:42🔗DrewDidn't you ever get together in a car like an average teenager?
1:23:45🔗AdamWell, you know, we were... we had a luck. When you're young and you're frisky and, you know, youth is on your side, sometimes we would get together...
1:23:54🔗AdamWell, it happened. That's disgusting. It's happened. I think everyone's done it. We were in the Mile High Club. We got together a few different places. But, you know, I got to give it to my left hand for not just phoning it in. It would have been very easy for the left hand just to dial the phone and call me and say it was over.
1:24:11🔗DrewIt's a little bit unthoughtful or sort of uncaring to bring you into your place, your environment where you consummated your relationship.
1:24:17🔗AdamWell, that's where we met. That's where we shared a lot of wonderful times together. Memories. Yeah. And, you know, I knew...
1:24:30🔗DrewOh my God, I'm just thinking how bizarre it is. You just renovated, you just drilled out that bathroom.
1:24:36🔗DrewOh my God, I hope you had some sort of ceremony.
1:24:38🔗AdamI came into the bathroom and my left hand was like, look, we need to talk. And I was like, sure, but, you know, we're done beating off and no, that's what we need to talk about. And he'd been another penis. And, you know, the penis had things that I didn't have, could show the hand of world and a lifestyle that I couldn't show. The left hand and she took off with him.
1:25:10🔗AdamThat's, let's see, it's over 20 years now.
1:25:14🔗DrewCan I have the right hand's number? Well, the right, the left hand, I mean, a bigger part.
1:25:18🔗AdamThe left hand, did I say right hand? I mean, right hand's here. Left hand, I've never spoke to again. I don't know what happened. Last I heard there was a divorce. There was some abuse. I had actually gotten a law degree, but then never practiced. And, uh, we were remarried and living in Oregon. Oh. Yeah. Then what are you going to do? I don't know. Maybe I'll see her at the reunion. No, no, just him. Judging by the knuckles would be a dude.
1:25:54🔗DrewI was going to say, I've been quite a woman with the hair and the knuckles that way.
1:26:25🔗CallerSo for a year and a half, this was when I was about 14, 15 years old. For a year and a half, I had to deal with seeing him maybe once every month.
1:26:33🔗DrewThat must have been tough, but that doesn't quite do it.
1:26:35🔗AdamLook, there's certain guys out there that are just weird and they're just jealous, and there's certain guys that aren't.
1:26:40🔗DrewBut most guys that are weird and jealous like that are sort of the narcissistic sociopath type.
1:26:52🔗DrewJohn's more the injured, wounded, insecure, empty, you know, the guy can feel good about himself, doesn't feel worth the relationship, he's convinced that she'll take off.
1:26:58🔗AdamWell, let me give John a little... John, here's the deal, buddy. You need to focus on your life. You've graduated from college, get your career on track, get your life on track. Make John as attractive a package you can possibly be. Stop worrying about controlling other people. Make yourself such a bright light that every moth is attracted to it, and then you won't have to worry about this. That's what your focus needs to be.
1:28:18🔗CallerYeah, through a hard edge, baby. Say, there's one place to go for your love, Vice. Name of that show is Loveline, because I'll tell you what, we're straight shooters over here. And I don't care if it's business of you people or Lord knows I have, but I'll tell you, man, I shoot fast, and I shoot from the hip, fast and loose. That's the way I play it. And look, if you want to come somewhere, just get yourself a whole pack of lies and have something to make you feel good about yourself. You come to the wrong place, I'll tell you what. Oh, wow.
1:28:51🔗AdamI like when shows do that. I like when the guy, I like this blowhard. Hey, man, I could tell you everything was perfect. I could tell you that this didn't mean anything. I could tell you, but that's not the way I were. I'm a straight shooter if you can't handle. Whenever anyone announces that they're one of these people, the people, here's what, like when people.
1:29:36🔗AdamI will, and a lot of people don't like it because I don't feel like they can handle it.
1:29:41🔗DrewI'm an angry, rageful, aggressive, narcissistic a-hole.
1:29:43🔗AdamBut I'll tell you the truth. I'm a straight shooter. I'll just look in the eye and I'll tell you what's going on. Sometimes, hey, I've lost a few friends because of my honesty.
1:30:10🔗AdamYeah, I love when people take a horrible attribute or characteristic and turn it into a conveniently positive, you know, hey, I'm a straight shooter, man. Oh, you're honest. Oh, that's awesome. Oh, oh, oh, so let me get this straight. You're a very honest person and other people are so weak and insecure they can't handle that so they turn on you.
1:30:33🔗CallerNo, you're a colossal a-hole. You should shut the F up.
1:30:38🔗AdamHey, man, I just, you know, I'm straightforward. No, a lot of people can't handle it.
1:30:42🔗DrewStrangely, you hear that kind of thing from women more than men.
1:31:02🔗And I'm calling because I've just had a baby four months ago, had catheter, epidural, all that good stuff. And now I have a urinary tract infection. And it's not going away with all the medicines I've taken. I've been to doctor after doctor and it's just not going away.
1:31:21🔗I'm not sure. They haven't really told me.
1:31:24🔗DrewMaybe there isn't a bacteria. Maybe you're just having urinary frequency from some other cause. Maybe it's not a urinary tract infection. Maybe it's just symptoms as though you had one. There's a ton of reasons for that. I'm sure they haven't advised you.
1:31:42🔗They should do culture tests and stuff, but the nurse spilled my pee.
1:31:46🔗DrewAll right. Well, you need a culture. You probably don't have a urine infection. You probably have some sort of mechanical problem or muscular sensitivity, like a spastic bladder. They need to do a cystoscopy on you and these sorts of things. There are medications that can help with this. It's not an uncommon thing after what you've been through.
1:32:22🔗DrewWell, tremors are very common after you've done drugs. Very common.
1:32:26🔗CallerThis was years before I ever done drugs.
1:32:29🔗DrewOh, you had it before? Well, and there are genetic causes for this and familial tremors and things. What's the name they've been giving this one?
1:32:38🔗CallerThey haven't. I've had three doctors and they don't know what it is.
1:32:42🔗DrewWell, no. I'm sure they gave it some sort of name. This is probably a...
1:33:06🔗DrewThey will say, it's probably fill in the blank. Here are the possibilities. That's the way you're trained to think as a doctor. So, there's no way you just go, oh, I have no idea. If you have no idea, then it's a more serious issue.
1:33:17🔗AdamThere's probably a guy out there named Phil in the blank. You know what I mean?
1:33:32🔗AdamYeah, we call him Phil in the blank. Yeah, we're going to meet him and Dick Nibbler for lunch. All right, let's take a break. We'll be back after this.
1:34:12🔗AdamHey, everybody. Well, that's the Loveline. We're gonna take a 22-hour break, but we'll be back tomorrow night. So until next time, this is Adam Corolla for Dr. Drew saying mahalo.
