Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, we give you the great Adam Carolla.
Speaker 1: It's extra large because four hours simply usn't enough. This
Speaker 1: is armstrong and getty extra large. Adam Carolla, one of
Speaker 1: the most popular podcasters on Earth, comedian writer, doing a
Speaker 1: bunch of shows in Reno this weekend at the Virginia
Speaker 1: Street brew House. Go see him. He just had to
Speaker 1: add another show because he's so damned popular. Hello, Adam,
Speaker 1: how are you hi. I'm a big fan of listen
Speaker 1: to you guys every morning at here on. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: now I'm going to be all nervous and I suck
Speaker 1: even more than usual. So the Virginia Street bru House
Speaker 1: and Rino actually like has human beings inside a building.
Speaker 1: We live in California. That thing is not happening here.
Speaker 1: So they're actually open there. Yeah, they're actually they're actually open.
Speaker 1: It's like a dinner thing. So it's not a club,
Speaker 1: you know, a stand up like a traditional stand up thing,
Speaker 1: because god forbid, we open California and just any I mean,
Speaker 1: the rules are so ridiculous. You know. I'm out here
Speaker 1: in Burbank, California. A friend of mine from high school
Speaker 1: runs this uh kind of honky tonk eatery called Tinhorn Flats.
Speaker 1: He stayed open for outdoor dining during It's it's literally
Speaker 1: up the street from where I am right now. I
Speaker 1: ate there with my son during the outdoor dining band
Speaker 1: and the shut is electricity. And now they pad locked
Speaker 1: his doors and for for stuff they were wrong about
Speaker 1: and had no evidence to substantiate. You know, outdoor dining
Speaker 1: was was dangerous. It's now punitive. It's now we've now
Speaker 1: crossed them. It's time to be punished, and they're gonna
Speaker 1: set They're gonna send a message to any other taxpayers
Speaker 1: and job creators who dared defy them. Yeah, we did
Speaker 1: that story the other day. I didn't know as your
Speaker 1: theas place, but um, so freaking maddening to me. So
Speaker 1: you you make it illegal to open outdoor with no
Speaker 1: evidence to back up, Why then when you violate that,
Speaker 1: then they can shut you down for violating health rules.
Speaker 1: I mean that sounds like the Soviet Union, right, And
Speaker 1: it's basically, you know, it's one thing to have the
Speaker 1: government say, well, we have a health inspector and we
Speaker 1: have some standards, and we have to check for rodents
Speaker 1: in your kitchen. Sure this is them saying drop and
Speaker 1: give me twenty and you go, what why should I
Speaker 1: do that? And they go, well, you'd like to keep
Speaker 1: your license, you'd like to keep your electrical open. They
Speaker 1: should be apologizing to every business they shut down for
Speaker 1: a month who already bent over backwards to accommodate them
Speaker 1: with outdoor dining. They should send over a fruit basket
Speaker 1: to every business they shut down with zero evidence. I
Speaker 1: talked to Dr Drew Yes today. He said, there is
Speaker 1: no cases of outdoor transmission. Zero doesn't exactly, of course,
Speaker 1: we can strapolate that. I don't know what your situation
Speaker 1: with with kids of school age, but I got two
Speaker 1: kids at a school age that I put I had
Speaker 1: to put my son in a private school, even though
Speaker 1: I'm a taxpayer and school is supposed to be provided
Speaker 1: with my taxes, because they wouldn't open up the school,
Speaker 1: and again no evidence to back that up. It makes
Speaker 1: me so mad. I can't even hardly talk about it.
Speaker 1: I got fourteen year old twins. They've been in their
Speaker 1: rooms for over a year, and I talked to my
Speaker 1: son last night. I said, when do you guys going
Speaker 1: back to school? And he said, well, now we're gonna
Speaker 1: go back towards the end of April, and I said,
Speaker 1: a great, you go there for three weeks and then
Speaker 1: summer vacation hits. But he said, but here's the thing
Speaker 1: that was interesting. I said, you're going at the end
Speaker 1: of April. What's the schedule and he said, two days on,
Speaker 1: two days off. You could be the Tuesday Thursday class.
Speaker 1: You'd be the Wednesday Friday class. And I said, what
Speaker 1: about Monday and he said, oh, no, no school Monday.
Speaker 1: These guys are turning this into a three day weekend. Now.
Speaker 1: They're literally going from not showing up to every every
Speaker 1: day is a three day week And the moronic media
Speaker 1: keeps reporting on all these schools and saying good news, parents,
Speaker 1: the schools are back open, even though for our local
Speaker 1: school it's two days, two hours per day and mandatory
Speaker 1: no teaching because they say it would be unfair to
Speaker 1: the kids that are doing it on zoom if they
Speaker 1: learn anything in the classroom, so there's no teaching during
Speaker 1: those two hours for two days. But the media continues
Speaker 1: to say the schools are open. It makes me freaking furious. Well,
Speaker 1: the media, you know, the media who's spent in the
Speaker 1: back pocket of the Democrats for the last you know,
Speaker 1: ever since before Trump, but certainly we're sort of fed
Speaker 1: creatine during Trump's range. These guys are bending themselves into
Speaker 1: pretzels trying to protect these horrible policies, and unfortunately they're
Speaker 1: starting to break, or fortunately they're starting to break, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like, even the media can't keep
Speaker 1: this up, whether it's the border situation, whether schools being closed,
Speaker 1: whether it's you know, double masking after you've gotten the vaccination,
Speaker 1: even the media can't keep going with this. Like this
Speaker 1: is basically the media is essentially like you know in
Speaker 1: those crime caper movies where they go, we're gonna rob this, uh,
Speaker 1: we're gonna rob this jewelry store. And there's the one
Speaker 1: guy going, fine, i'll drive, and then they go here's
Speaker 1: a gun, and he goes, no, I don't want to
Speaker 1: kill anybody. I mean, I'll participate. But it's getting we're
Speaker 1: going too deep now. So I think a lot of
Speaker 1: the mainstream media, I think the problem with what's going
Speaker 1: on and some of these guys, it's like Gavin Newsom,
Speaker 1: you know, Gavin Newsom is is losing a lot of
Speaker 1: his base and a lot of the mainstream media now
Speaker 1: or Cuomo. You know what I mean, They've they've gone
Speaker 1: so far that they're actually losing their constituency. Well, Gavin
Speaker 1: Newsom has been so bad for so long. Virtually every
Speaker 1: aspect of his administration is just sucked, and it's you know,
Speaker 1: it's good to see the recalls happening and the rest
Speaker 1: of it, but I don't really see the well, you
Speaker 1: know what I almost said, I don't see the l
Speaker 1: A Times calling them out that much. But they did
Speaker 1: have pretty good coverage of, for instance, the thirty to
Speaker 1: forty billion dollars worth a squandered unemployment benefits and stuff
Speaker 1: like that they've given. And I'm a good whooping on that.
Speaker 1: But um thinking that the l A the l A Times,
Speaker 1: sorry for cutting you off. Go ahead, the l A Times.
Speaker 1: You know what they're doing. They're not waking up, they're
Speaker 1: thawing out. Which there's a difference, you know, wake up.
Speaker 1: They're not getting a cold bucket of water in the face.
Speaker 1: They're just fine. They're just kind of going slowly starting
Speaker 1: to melt away and start to the ice is melting
Speaker 1: away and we're starting to kind of wake up to this.
Speaker 1: And after all, I guess we were a newspaper, so
Speaker 1: we should do something. You know, it's a slow process,
Speaker 1: but it's it's like turning around a battleship, you know.
Speaker 1: They just they started turning. Well, especially because so many
Speaker 1: of the people in newsrooms these days, and we're speaking
Speaker 1: from personal experience, they're kids. I mean they they're not
Speaker 1: died in the in the whole old timey principal journalists.
Speaker 1: There are a bunch of woke kids who've been out
Speaker 1: of college for six months. They don't know what they're
Speaker 1: supposed to be. Well, they were told they're supposed to
Speaker 1: be social justice warriors, but so you know, the narrative
Speaker 1: is the only thing that matters to them. Honestly, that's
Speaker 1: the way it seems anyway. Yeah, it's an it's an
Speaker 1: interesting phenomenon, and I think you stumbled onto which is
Speaker 1: since colleges have sort of become the centers where you go,
Speaker 1: everyone has to pick a cause, everyone's got to choose
Speaker 1: a side, everyone's got to be woke, everyone's got to
Speaker 1: be a warrior. Well then, how are you supposed to
Speaker 1: leave that behind when you leave campus? Well, well they are.
Speaker 1: They're sent out in the world to do precisely the
Speaker 1: opposite their religious zealots. They're out there to spread the gospel. Right,
Speaker 1: But then you you get a job for the New
Speaker 1: York Times, obviously you're just gonna keep you have a
Speaker 1: mini These are like Mormon missionaries at this point. You
Speaker 1: know they're not there to figure out, you know, what's
Speaker 1: what's fair and what's equitable. They're there to extend their agenda.
Speaker 1: How long did you go ahead? I was gonna say
Speaker 1: that the part of this whole thing pandemic is really
Speaker 1: shine the light on it. For me, it's not the media,
Speaker 1: and it's not Gavin Newsom, and it's not the government.
Speaker 1: The thing that's been eye opening to me is how
Speaker 1: many citizens are willing just to queue up and go
Speaker 1: along with everything. Yeah, it was shocking. Yeah, that was shocking.
Speaker 1: Does too. I didn't know it would be possible to
Speaker 1: shut down the whole town's businesses before this all happened.
Speaker 1: I didn't even know you could do it, even if
Speaker 1: you made it a law. And people were so willing
Speaker 1: to stop going to church, shut down their businesses at
Speaker 1: great expense, let their kids not be educated without much
Speaker 1: pushback in a lot of areas, it was. It was
Speaker 1: surprising to me too. Well, I still see. Polls were
Speaker 1: like half a parents say probably ought to keep the
Speaker 1: schools closed until it's safe. What the hell are you
Speaker 1: talking about? How about all these people that you know,
Speaker 1: they interview these people on CNN and you know, they're
Speaker 1: talking about Texas fully reopening and dropping all the mandates
Speaker 1: and all that stuff, and they interview all these people
Speaker 1: and they're like, we've come this far. What's a couple
Speaker 1: of more months. I don't get it. It's like, you
Speaker 1: don't get it. It's it's been a year. What do
Speaker 1: you mean, what's a couple What's a couple of more
Speaker 1: months to do something that has no fact? Like, what
Speaker 1: what do you mean? So that's how long did you
Speaker 1: go without doing stand up? Or did you find places
Speaker 1: around the country that we're still open? I just found
Speaker 1: places around the country that we're open. I've been to Texas,
Speaker 1: I've performed in Texas three times, Oklahoma City, Nashville, I've
Speaker 1: been all over the country. Any place that's open, I go.
Speaker 1: That's wild because I live in one of the early
Speaker 1: counties to close in America, and and I mean there's
Speaker 1: been nothing happening in my county for like a year.
Speaker 1: But you know that's such as being a California You know,
Speaker 1: I forgot to mention that Adam's show is entitled Adam
Speaker 1: Corolla is Unprepared. Have you ever noticed that the title
Speaker 1: of your show makes any difference? I mean, if it
Speaker 1: was called Adam Curla shows you his Schwans or Adam
Speaker 1: Curla Beats the hell out of your grandmother, anything, does
Speaker 1: that matter? I did do Adam Carolla Beats the Hell
Speaker 1: out of your Grandmother, and it was actually five sold
Speaker 1: out shows, people showing up with their nana. There are
Speaker 1: more people that don't like their grandparents that do like
Speaker 1: the grand that turns out that's beautiful, Oh my god.
Speaker 1: And Adam's new book as I am your emotional support animal. Hey,
Speaker 1: just to go backward for a second, and not to
Speaker 1: get all policy on people, but the point I'd like
Speaker 1: to make on the show a lot on our radio show,
Speaker 1: because it's important to know this is our system of
Speaker 1: government was not designed because everybody loves liberty. It was
Speaker 1: designed because a lot of people are sheep and they
Speaker 1: want a king, and the founding Papa's knew it, so
Speaker 1: they designed a system that the majority couldn't vote their
Speaker 1: own rights away. No wait, hold on, can you hear me? Yeah,
Speaker 1: we can, we can now, are you okay? Yeah? You
Speaker 1: glitched out as you're saying, Joe, that's the singles smartest
Speaker 1: thing I've ever heard in my life. But we'll get
Speaker 1: over it. That's all right. Go see Adam Corolla at
Speaker 1: the Virginia Street Blue House and Reno this weekend. If
Speaker 1: you can't figure out how to get tickets, you probably
Speaker 1: can't afford them, but you can call seven seven five
Speaker 1: seven fifty. That's seven seven five, seven hundred. We appreciate
Speaker 1: your time today, Adam. It's always good to talk to you. Thanks.
Speaker 1: Guys always like to be on the show. Thank you. Hey,
Speaker 1: you have some great shows to go kill him extra
Speaker 1: large
