They got through what? 4 calls this episode? Adam and the guests get along really well and there’s lots of talking. Good episode.
Cary is hilarious, Adam and Drew always rock, definitely give this a listen you’ll bust up !
Hands down the BEST Loveline episode ever.
Besides DAG and Jimmy, the best show I’ve heard.
the rape is a violent crime………..when you cum is one of adams funniest bits
God damn that is a good show. BBC and Michael Caine impressions…amazing guests.
Fantastic, guests are some of the best ever, hilarious and get on like a house on fire with Adam
This is great episode – Adam & Drew bring their A game and the guests are excellent!
I guess Loveline really does have the dumbest listeners in the world. This episode destroys the Tom Arnold episode. Vote this one up top!!
One of the absolute best Lovelines ever.
Absolutely hilarious show. Great guests who listened and contributed both advice and Comedy Gold.
Definitely a good rapport with the guests, but a lot of the comedy is recycled material and the calls aren’t particularly interesting.
When the guests crack Adam up it’s always a good sign. An excellent episode.
Amongst others in the Pantheon of best loveline guest
Two guests you don’t expect much from after hearing who they are, but they end up being spectacular.
Wish they had come on before or after this appearance. We need more of them!
Excellent show. I enjoy Cary’s films but never would have guessed that he was this funny and entertaining. Love his many impressions. Leigh was a great guest as well. As others have said, it’s certainly one of the better multi-guest episodes of all time. No super memorable calls, but Adam and the guests make up for that and then some. Easily 5/5.
Interesting aside: When talking about horror movies, Leigh says he doesn’t like haunted-house films because his first thought is, “Why don’t they just move?” Several years later he made “Insidious,” where the characters do just that…and it doesn’t work. The movie creeped me out; I recommend it.
The beach ball call is one of the best I’ve ever heard. The impression of the man explaining the origin of the fetish is absolutely hysterical. “I like it when a beach ball is popped.”
THE MAN IN BLACK!!!!!
Bring! Bring!
Great episode.
Wow, talk about “yes, AND” and then some! The show is loaded for bear. Elwes and Whannell aka “one-L” delight Adam. Elwes is quick, and seamless with all his impressions.
top notch
These guys are hilarious
In the beginning of the episode, Adam mocks the usual type of guests that are comatose, don’t speak into the mic or say anything. He said this as a compliment to these two guys since they were interesting to Adam.
Specifically, he jokingly ranted how the bassist from Slipknot (again, just a random example of the top of his head) and said that his heart stopped so Drew had to resuscitate him back to life.
Slipknot’s bassist, Paul Gray, ended up dying from an overdose and early signs of heart disease in 2010.
Crazy to hear these episodes from the past when you know what happened to some of these people or references 10 years later.
GREAT guests. One of my favorite episodes
nice guest.
A quick, rare example of Drew being funny at 09:23
THIS SHOW RULES. Guests are ON, Adam is ON, Drew fucks up jokes, sincerely, one of the best Lovelines ever 5 STARS
Great episode. One of the best. But Whannell does the BBC Reporter and the impression of the fetish beach ball popper (which is a variation on his BBC Reporter), not Elwes (who does Michael Caine).
“It started on a nice, summer afternoon…. when a beach ball headed my way… and it BURST overhead… and AT THE SAME TIME! I FOUND MYSELF! ABSOLUTELY!!!! EJACULATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Whannell also does his BBC Reporter “Once again the fruit of peace? Has become the jam of war.” on the SAW DVD commentary with just him and director James Wan. On the uncut SAW DVD, it’s Whannell, Wan and Elwes, and Elwes does his Michael Caine and a mean Marlon Brando impression. Both commentaries are worth a listen if you’re a fan of this Loveline ep.
Just about the best episode ever.
easily my favorite episode
Easy to see why this is a top rated episode. Listened to it at least 10 times. Great balance of entertainment and calls.
Possibly the greatest show ever…..if you dont enjoy this one, then what the hell are you doing here??
Truly one of the best episodes ever. The guests were amazing, they get into the calls, have great stories, of kilter humor. Adam really likes these two as guests. The entire show is amazing top to bottom.
2005
This is the best episode ever. You can have your James the dogf—ker and holocaust call episodes. Start to finish, this one’s the best. God bless Cary “Pierre Despareauxx” Elwes and Leigh “One L” Whannell. Run, don’t walk, to listen to this episode. #LovelineForever
Leigh went on to direct both ‘Upgrade’ and ‘The Invisible Man’ btw.
The bass player from slipknot. That was so god damn funny.
very good
very good
File Replaced. Audio Upgrade.
Not to be a negative Nelly but this ended up being overhyped imo. The guests have a couple of good riffs and laugh a lot but Adam can barely stop talking, especially in the second half. To each his own!
