Adam with Karch Kiraly, Joel McHale, John Stossel, Kenny Maine, Matt Hasselbeck, Jack and Dick Leinenkugel – May 2, 2007
CALL ADAM NOW!
866-901-ADAM
6:02AM – SEX TOYS
Adam and one of his friends go to a sex shop and confused about whether one of the toys is a shrimp de-veiner or a vibrator. His friend, having no shame, tried to wave over a sales guy for clarification, while Adam tried to melt into the background as people might recognize him. This is the same guy while on the Man Show, turned into the producers a $2300 receipt for a “juggie hunt.”
In the case of the particular device Adam and his friend were looking at, it turned out to be for him and his gay partner’s pleasure. Danny tries to demonstrate a toy that he’s seen, but like radio – it’s impossible to describe and do justice in a written form as well.
6:24AM – KARCH KIRALY
Karch Kiraly, AVP player and 4 time All American at UCLA and 3 time Olympic Gold, is in the studio. Adam’s more impressed that Karch not only gets paid to play a kids’ game, but also has his ‘offices’ on the beach – he’s living a dream. But at 46, everything hurts a little, but it’s much easier on the sand than on the hardwood. The first two legs of the series were in Dallas and Miami.
Interesting fact: Karch’s name is Hungarian for “Chuck,” as his father escaped from Hungary. The show then discusses the pros and cons of the Hungarian language and ethnic food. His father, after escaping, came to Santa Barbara and became a doctor – he would wear shorts under his suit, and then strip down and play during lunch.
His dad was even originally his partner as well. Adam gets a couple of questions answered about the regulation shoes, shorts, shirts, and so forth. As model of the perfect family, Adam and Danny decide they’re going to try and adopt themselves into the Kiraly family.
6:46AM – AMERICAN IDOL RECAP
Teresa reviews the results from the American Idol competition last night – which was themed Bon Jovi. Adam’s not particularly impressed by some of the contestants performances, especially Blake, but some of the others are just impressive, such as the 17-year-olds who’ve never performed before in their life and come out just poised.
Adam also has decided that Ryan Seacrest needs an apple box, as Seacrest next to the normal-sized contestants makes them look like giants! Seacrest also jokes about the rumored gayness – but has never actually admitted to being gay. Adam’s seen him making out and Danny’s seen him on date – but when you see him on a date, they seem too perfect, almost like it’s a photo op.
7:05AM – KENNY MAINE
Kenny Maine from ESPN is down driving in Kentucky Derby – Adam Carolla show interviews are dangerous, as while on the phone, he turned the wrong way down a one way street.
In terms of the ratings, while Super Bowl and World Cup take the cake, the Derby and it’s hot chicks in bonnets has a pretty incredible draw. Kenny had a couple residual checks that he cashed and will be using to gamble on the derby and some of the other races of the event. Turns out though, when you win at the track, you are taxed a ridiculous amount as opposed to winning in Vegas.
7:28AM – TERESA STRASSER REPORTS THE NEWS
Kenny Maine referred the show to his favorite embarrassing local news clip.
R. Kelly has recorded a tribute to the victims of the Virginia Tech massacre, to be released digitally May 15th.
CNN has been celebrating Larry King’s 50 years on the air, including Oprah’s money-saving techniques like having someone call her back to save on hotel phone charges.
Evidently, Joel McHale will be on from the Soup – and Adam is looking forward to his gay shoes.
7:50AM – JOEL MCHALE
Joel McHale from the Soup is in the studio to share some of his favorite entertainment news drops from the week, including some opinions from Stephen Baldwin about his brother.
8:13AM – MATT HASSELBECK
Matt Hasselbeck of the Seattle Seahawks, is on the phone and will be hosting a mini camp for the high schoolers with his teammates.
The rules of football have certainly changed, as coaches used to be able to grab facemasks and spit gum at the players to intimidate – but now that only happens in the pros. His sister, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, just announced that she is pregnant, and David insists that she loves everybody she works with on the View, including dear Rosie.
Adam starts reminiscing about his Pop Warner Football days and the coaches yelling at him. Danny realizes that while he always thought being a child star, he might have missed out on some of this kids stuff, it really doesn’t sound like fun at all.
8:30AM – FISH AND GOSSIP
Adam’s wife cooked for the first time in many years last night in 9 years and offered Ozzie a little bit of the fish to taste – but he misunderstood and took all the fish and ate it in his truck.
Anyways, Joel is still in the studio, has a couple more drops to share via Adam’s request for more juicy gossip. The show gets into an argument about what sports are real sports – such as pro wrestling and John Stossel getting hit in the head and rupturing an ear drum.
John’s actually going to be next up on the show.
8:50AM – JOHN STOSSEL
During an interview with a pro WWF wrestler, John got hit in the head and punctured an eardrum. While involved in the lawsuit about it, he continued to suffer pain until the suit was over with – just as the crazy WWF doctor suggested.
John’s got a book out, Myths, Lies and Downright Stupidity, and will be talking about gun control in the wake of Virginia Tech on 20/20 Friday. Teresa asks about one of the myths he busted that opposites attract, but it’s actually that while at first you attract, eventually without some common ground, you grow apart. So, says Adam, if you ever to be remarried, you’d get a woman with a mustache who was attacked by a wrestler?
Adam admits how appealing he finds John Stossel, but thinks he lacks the raw sexuality. “Do Dateline without your shirt on,” advises Adam.
9:07AM – GAY WALKING
Pre-op Board Op Bill went gay walking in New York while at Tribecca, so this installment is all movie, all New York version of gay walking. Teresa, Adam, and Danny all make bets about whether the gay knows the answer to the questions every straight man should know.
Questions include: In Armageddon, Bruce Willis and his crew set out to destroy what?, Name one of the starts of the Dirty Dozen, Who played opposite Robin Williams in the Birdcage?, Name one Jean Claude Van Damn movie. The winner of the show, determined by breaking a 3 way tie, is Adam for a change.
9:29AM – TERESA RECAPS THE NEWS
Teresa recaps her news.
9:47AM – JACK AND DICK LEINENKUGEL
Jack and Dick Leinenkugel are in the studio and wax poetic about the majestic history of beer. One of the oldest breweries in the nation, the brothers brought a sunshine wheat with a hint of coriander for Adam to sample. It’s not a bitter, biting beer – more fruity and sweeter.
Teresa normally doesn’t like beers either, but she agrees that it’s much more palatable than the stuff her dad drinks. The brothers give a quick history of the progression of beer styles, from the Mesopotamian stuff to the thicker heaver European stuff.
Couple other samples the brothers brought include an Arnold Palmer type of beer – almost like lemonade.
Out of time, Adam wraps up the show and advises everybody to try the beer.
