Adam has some great political rants in this pre-election show.
The discussion ranges from Maxine Waters, to stem cell discussion, the morning after pill, taxes, and voter apathy.
95% of this show pertains to the upcoming election
If you like almost pure rant with very few calls plus a Germany or Florida, then this one is for you.
First call is roughly 29 mins in lol, Adam rants like no other, which I love, but this is mostly why shit does not change that much and the hype is all BS.
Great political discourse between Adam and Drew to start the show. The entire show really focuses a lot on the issues that will come to bear in the upcoming election, but the beginning of the show (first 15 minutes) is the most enjoyable part in my opinion.
Adam talks about how we, as humans, always want to believe that everything that is happening to us right now is the most important thing to ever happen. THIS election is the most important election ever, but is really just dust in the wind 8 months from now.
Adam: “I’ve got this theory that the country pretty much runs itself, or at least it’s not the president that needs to. Here’s my case, Bush hasn’t been in the White House in the last 9 months. He’s just been out stumping at slaughterhouses in Iowa. What’s going on back at the White House? How does the country manage to run itself? Maybe it does. This guy’s not essentially punched in at the White House in a year. Country seems to be fine.”
Adam also throws in that he feels it’s somewhat passive aggressive that Arnold Schwarzenegger just WILL NOT learn to pronounce California correctly.
He moves on to say that this idea that somehow voting is the best thing every American can do to serve their country is completely bogus. He says 100 million people go out and vote, but there are so many other things he would rather have those 100 million do to better the country. He’d rather they swear never to file a frivolous lawsuit, or claim disability when they don’t actually need it, or pledge to stick with their families and rear their kids, or pledge not to call the cops when all you had to do was knock on the wall and tell the neighbors to turn the stereo down, or to not go to the ER when they don’t actually need it, or pledge not to litter, or to get an emissions test on your car. Let 10 million people vote, and put the rest on other meaningful tasks. Ten million people is enough to get a representation of America. They say to picture the Rose Bowl filled to capacity, then multiply that by 100, and you’ve got yourself enough people to figure things out. Plus, if you only vote because Puff Daddy told you to, we don’t need you making decisions anyway.
They move on to the bullshit three strikes laws and how guys end up in prison because their third strike was stealing a Hershey’s bar.
Adam: “Look, I’d prefer you rape somebody or murder someone for your third strike, don’t get me wrong but….”
Mostly just Adam and Drew talking but still very good show.
I love Adam’s “toss ’em in the ocean” mandate
Extended Abba-Zaba candy discussion. Adam is surprised that several Kimmel writers have never heard it. Apparently it’s regional, only available west of the Rockies.
abba zabas are gross
This episode is cancer….had to stop listening halfway in. Non stop Adam rants on the same political bullshit. Whoreawful episode and my first 1 star ever.
