Show Summary:
From the movie Ringmaster
– Wendy Raquel Robinson is also in the studio
– Adam wants Jerry to implant Norplant to every guest on his show, even males.
– Drew talks about taking his kids to the Rugrats movie sneak preview
– Conan won’t fly Adam and Drew out to NY even though they want them on the show next week
– Caller Max says “Screw you Drew,” not the drop though
– Adam yells at Drew for his squeaky chair
– Drew tries to make a movie or TV reference and completely butchers it.
– The chairs on-set of the Jerry Springer show should probably be bolted down…
– Last night all the breaks were taken exactly on the second they’re supposed to be done (Adam was out)
– Jerry says the chairs are safe because there are cops on-set.
– Caller has been listening since the Poorman-era and says Adam is way better in her opinion
– Adam’s bizarre dream last night, driving home from the “Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place,” taping at 2am and passed by several Psycho billboards. She dreamt Anne Heche trying to stab him several times even though he got to have sex with her. Jerry wants to get Adam and Ann on his show ASAP.
– Jerry and Wendy leave after the first hour and will tape the MTV Loveline show on Friday
– Some “Blur” bashing, says the name was based on how easy it is to say after waking up from a drunken stupor
– Drew says that the most popular program in prisons is COPS.
– Tap water PSA clip (Adam PSA rant ensues)
– Talk about Adam’s “Two Guys a Girl and a Pizza Place” Adam comes up with a great line, way better than the written line, ties into what they’re trying to get across, but they can’t do it because it used the word “Jesus.” Adam goes off on them referencing the scientology letter incident from 1997. This rant is a good 7+ minutes long, gold.
How are new episodes still surfacing at this point? Do you have a cache of them that you’re releasing over a period of time?
Jerry is a very intelligent and level-headed guy. He was once a serious politician, and was the mayor of Cincinnati for a period time. if you haven’t heard it, this ep of This American Life has his whole backstory:

Heh, Dennis Kucinich. Remember when he tried to run for president? In the convo they mention that he was recalled as mayor of Cleveland.
A new batch of about of a dozen tapes from 98/99 were just transferred, still have a couple more to upload but my internet was screwed up last night. The earlier shows are from another source, hope to get more in the next couple months or so.
HOLY EFF maybe its just because I’m high right now, but Adam delivers an AMAZING rant about tv show sensors @ 1:00:30 its like 6 minutes long about nothing really. Brilliant.
yeah, it’s classic Adam vs scripted TV. The episode that aired wasn’t bad at all though. And no, it’s not just because you are high right now 🙂
Haha the rant was funny, Jerry is honest and says the producers beef up the stories on his show, although I doubt they’re fired.
Ha. The first caller, “Red” has an attitude so they put him on hold. Then they get distracted and don’t get back to him until 48 minutes in. First thing he says “yeah, I had a question an hour and a half ago…” He’s hooked up with two married women with kids. He works at a bakery and has blue hair. Total moron/prick. Not sure which.
Then this lady, Melissa, calls because her husband isn’t aggressive and she thinks he might not be into women. She has a CRAZY laugh.
Yeah that lady at the end with the laugh is cooky. Overall good episode.
