    Wowwwwwwwwww – he revealed that he was molested as a child and went to confront him 4 years prior to this recording. He confronted him at work, stopped his adoption process (apparently the fourth one – yikes) and got his farmhands? to post pictures of him, his contact info, and what he did within a 4 mile radius of his home. Go Tom go! He reveals a lot in LL shows and had a very tough life.

    either this show is mislabeled or “David Alan Grier, Phoner Tom Arnold 9/4/1997” is mislabeled, because in that show they say that Adam hasn’t done a Loveline show with Tom, and they would remember him.

    Our hypothesis is that “David Alan Grier, Phoner Tom Arnold 9/4/1997” originally ran sometime in April of 1997, but we couldn’t put a date on it. The 9/4 date is when that segment was re-run during a Best of Loveline show.

    Tom tells the story about being molested by his babysitter and confronting him later starting from 1:09:15. He would tell it again at least once, in the 2002 show. Really appreciate the honesty. Great guest.
