Show Summary:
From the movie 20 Dates
This is an ok show. Miles plugs his movie about a million times throughout the show.
Adam announces he has diarrhea. Drew blames it on some airplane food they had a couple days ago. Drew's gas is kicking in as well.
Adam plans on getting a C130 cargo plane to distribute the morning after pill across urban centers.
Drew mentions he listened to an interview on an airplane about movies. This gets Adam fired up about the in flight television having commercials in the first class section of the plane.
Miles says the only reason he was able to get funding for his movie was that the guy who paid for it thought it was going to end up being a porn movie he could sell in Europe.
Adam pitches his invention called the Love Grommit. Caller Ben calls in with a gripe about the show being repetitive
Adam says he's scared to fart into the mic because of the diarrhea. Adam and Drew talk about the band Cake being in the studio and Adam lighting farts for them on the air.
A caller says he's made a tape full of Adam's tangents.
This show is the first time Drew discovers Adam has never talked about whacking off with his therapist. Adam say's he'd rather talk about his model airplanes. When Drew says Adam spends most of his day masturbating, Adam is offended because his grandmother may be listening and has Drew's mic shut off. You can hear Drew continue to defend his point after his mic is off.
Adam accidently addresses caller Michelle as Michael and Drew gets upset. Adam makes a funny Marijuana Anonymous joke.
Just as a heads up, at 1:13:51 there is a second or two of static that made me jump when I was listening to it.
Drew says Adam's buddy Ray should be a guest on the show. Adam doesn't think that would be a great idea though.
Drew asks a caller how many times an hour he thinks about sex. Adam goes off on how stupid and unanswerable that question is. He also brings up the time he was asked a similar question during his catholic big brother interview. Miles says he was rejected from the big brother program because he didn't have a girlfriend they could talk to.
Adam explains the big brother program is split into different groups for different religions. He says they include catholic big brother, Jewish big brother and another one called Son of Satan for the atheists.
Miles apologizes for plugging his movie during a call that may not have been appropriate but Adam says it doesn't matter.
A caller brings up girls using astrological signs. Adam mentions having dinner with Kennedy and having to talk signs. He proclaims this stuff is only for gay men and crazy women.
A caller mentions getting hepatitis A and oral polio shots. Adam says he recently rented Oral Polio.
A guy says he thinks he looks like the picture of Adam on the cover of their book and wants advice on neck rashes. Adam says to use apricot seed scrub. When the caller says he likes Adam's tangents, it's revealed the night before this show, Adam went off on Mountain Dew, Sunny D and thick crust pizza.

Really annoying guest.
Myles is kind of obnoxious. I can’t tell if he’s trying to be funny or if he’s just an idiot.
Wow. Myles has to be one of the biggest attention whores in the world.
Agree that guest is annoying but Adam is strong on this one.
Yes, the guest is a bit annoying. Typical NYC. But Drew and Adam are in rare form. Going at it like an old married couple. Laughing my ass off. Great show.
I didn’t think the guest was as bad. He was going for good jokes haha. But this was definitely a 5/5 episode. If you listen to the first jimmy kimmel episode, you learn that Adam takes that MA joke from him lol
5/5 episode. Checking the reviews of the plugged movie on Metacritic (36/100) is hilarious. SF Chronicle said “One of the downsides of living in a free society is that every so often someone like Myles Berkowitz gets hold of a camera.”
You guys could seriously complain about anything. He’s too NY? He’s obnoxious? He was fine. Try getting a sense of humor.
If it’s not an actual great guest (DAG, John Mayer, Mark McGrath, etc come to mind), basically the only thing I want in a guest is that they don’t step on all of Adam’s jokes and they’re not annoyingly talkative. This guy was fine.
Super obnoxious guest. Won’t stop plugging his crappy movie.
Good show, guest sucks. He contributes nothing but bad jokes
Pretty good episode. I don’t mind the guest. I looked him cause I was curious what happened with him and his girlfriend. They did get married and had a daughter. Sadly they divorced in 2015. He also gained some weight during their marriage and decided to quit hollywood to help run a weight loss center.
Mediocre guest and definitely a let down from the previous show.
