Show Summary:
Night no.2 of the Tarantula drama, Adam "..he went from hey look I'm going to save this tarantula, to hey why wont this tarantula die, i liked him better when he was in a coma"
Adam goes on about the tarantula and how it is in a bucket in his garage and Drew offers up all kinds of terrifying what if scenario's about Africanized jumping Tarantula's.
Adam recounts telling him about it on last nights drive home and Drew scaring the S' out of him.
Adam as Drew "..watch out some of them are leaping tarantulas.."
Drew "hahahaha"
Drew discusses his very specific psychology of catastrophizing and how it is just part of his personality.
Adam "..I get this feeling like if I just go dump it, like in the neighbors yard or like down the hill or something I'm going to spot it on my forehead in the middle of the night, it's going to come back and get me".
Adam discusses his wife borrowing his car yesterday while he used hers, he thanks god that she isn't very inquisitive and didn't look in the bucket because he fears he would be up on manslaughter charges after she had a heart attack from fear.
Adam asks for callers to tell him what tarantulas eat which inspires many calls throughout the show.
A caller tells Adam to make sure to get legless crickets so they wont harm the tarantula, Adam refuses to believe a tarantula couldn't handle a cricket with legs, Adam "... are those crickets veterans or do they take the legs off?".
Drew reads about tarantulas from a book and makes sure to make it sound horrifying. Drew "I'm trying to protect you from that!"
Adam now declares he needs to know what is in his fridge that the tarantula will eat.
Adam goes off on the birth control patch commercials, he thinks the patch is positioned very suggestively and how he had to tivo the commercial.
Adam "..maybe I'll put the patch on my forehead and beat off, I'll look in the mirror pretend it's on your pube patch....Put it HERE!
Adam "..I like to sniff the used patches and beat off...they call me Patches!..I make a pentagram on my chest outta those patches and then I beat off....."
Drew "..oh, nice".
Adam really goes off on this commercial and then he segues into more "fat cats in Washington", which leads into more talk of Gray Davis, Drew starts ranting, rad!
Adam "..what are you going out for the goth team or something?"

Tarantula and birth control patch.
Adam tasks the listeners with finding out what tarantulas eat so he can feed the one he has trapped in a bucket in his garage. He says he doesn’t want to hear crickets as an answer because he doesn’t want to have to hunt. He wants to hear that you can feed it bologna and a dollop of sour cream. A girl suggests mice, but he says that’s in the same category as crickets. He gives the listeners some options based on what he has laying around the house. They are yogurt, cheese, chap stick, canned stuff like Dinty Moore Stew, booze, a can of tuna, and some low sodium soy sauce. He also declares that crickets should get a new publicist since they seem to be the catch-all when it comes to what to feed the various monsters that live on this planet. He doesn’t want to just release the tarantula back into the wild because he learned from watching Bond films that whenever the villain says “alright I’m gonna go have a drink, I know you’re taken care of” Bond ends up escaping and killing the villain. He doesn’t want to underestimate his foe.
“They call me Patches!”
Adam looks for what to feed his tarantula. He gets told several times but won’t accept it. The “tongue makeout” call was a different cal then usual. Good episode
To come to the callers defense, for once, Adam immediately says I don’t want to hear about what tarantulas actually eat, i.e. bugs and mice, so its like um ok…they eat bugs and mice Adam, what do you want to hear? Because of this, the whole what can I feed the tarantula thing becomes exceptionally tedious very early, and it’s not the callers fault
Amazingly, you can’t give a tarantula leftover pork lo mein or half a sub sandwich. What are we talking about??
“Now keep in mind, I don’t want to go to a pet store”. Um Adam, it’s a tarantula!!!! Omg I hate the tarantula episodes
Southern Illinois rolecall whoop whoop lol
Adam can’t accept that tarantulas “just” eat insects. BUT, Adam and Drew have a great chemistry this show. Drew especially is a good “sidekick.”
