Host: Adam, Dr. Drew
Listen to theShow
Show Summary:
Show Contains: Adam loaded, Dentist rants, Volvo/Saab test, military talk
Drew has to help Adam start the show because he is loaded from painkillers he got from the dentist earlier in the day. Adam gave the new dentist his heavyweight speech and got a good amount of medicine.
Drew proclaims that Adam is acting far nicer than his normal self as a result of his painkillers.
Adam tells a story from his closet installing days. When his friend gave him a taco that tasted weird. When he asked what kind of meat it was, the guy said it was cactus. Maybe this was inspiration for the cactus scene in The Hammer.
They give Paul the Volvo/Saab test. This is from Adam's barber who pronounced Volvo as Bolbo and Saab as Savv.
A little over 37 minutes into the show, it shifts over to the 16kbps "tin can" sound.
Paul tells a story of walking to his high school around the age of 15 and seeing a kid get shot in the stomach. He went to help and the kid died in his arms. He also tells a story about almost dying in a plane accident in the air force.
Adam quizzes a caller on carpentry and he does so-so.
Anderson gets Adam with his "The world is your oyster" drop.
There is a lot of comedy talk and how Paul got to where he is now. Apparently he is a fan of the show and has called in under an alias before.

Both hilarious and interesting! Definitely one of my favorites.
This is an awesome episode. Paul says that he is a fan and he seems to really get the show. Adam is high after having a tooth pulled earlier in the day. While he normally rants about his dentist appointments, he really likes the new dentist who loaded him up with drugs. Paul tells a few interesting stories and it is a nice break from Adam’s repeating stories. Paul’s story about being on a plane with stuck landing gear is intense.
Paul is both funny and interesting. One of my favorite episodes.
High Adam plus awesome guest equals classic episode.
Good guest. Adam is high from getting a tooth pulled. Carolla goes a big Jag on why men make more money then women. This show has the least amount of callers in years.
All of a sudden, I started to understand why liberals hate their country…
I gotta say, I’m a little surprised by the high praise for this episode. I didn’t find the guest to be all that funny or entertaining, and Adam didn’t really seem markedly different despite supposedly being “high” after the dentist visit. All in all a pretty forgettable episode IMO.
Paul had a few hack jokes but he and Adam have a good chemistry. Adam is on point with the humor. Paul has a couple creepy comments about young girls. He said he has prank called the show a couple times as “Pepe” but it is hard to tell if he is joking or not.
Surprised this is rated so high. Paul Rodriguez is such an old school hack comedian. Sounds like he’s always trying to promote or play a character. He can’t just be authentic.
