Creeping up on year seven. Why? We're able to have all these employees and all this air conditioning. All because of you telling people about the show. Good day, Gina Grant.
Good day to you.
Handball Brian. Shut the fuck up, you old witch. I was off the air.
Yeah, that was my mistake.
I apologize. Joe Coy. Hello, sir. Chris, it's still a little hot in the headphones, but Dawson is out. Probably he's sick today.
Later, husband.

Chapter 2: How does the discussion about smokers reflect societal views?
In a movie.
It's like the outline where the door opens.
It's like what's his name from WKRP that had the imaginary lines? Yes. I mean, no.
Venus Flytrap.
I don't know. Not Venus Flytrap. Herb Nesman. No, not her. The other one. Come on, Brian. The one that made the imaginary lines for his office. Kodo and Poto. I don't remember that part. It's what you would do if you're making a movie with Liam Neeson where there were some wolves out there and they're coming for you and you had to make camp that night.
somebody would be in charge of putting the burning stakes out on the perimeter. You wouldn't put them right next to each other. You'd spread them out about eight feet apart, but you'd make that perimeter a fire. That's what he did with phlegm? Yes. So I then explained to him... Dawson, you can't hawk all your loogies. And by the way, these are... These are premium.
I've been smoking since the fifth grade loogies.
I've seen them.
They have a little bit of lung in them. You know what? When he hawks, a little bit's coming from his asshole. It's that deep. The compression is from the top of his intestine.

Chapter 3: What humorous anecdotes are shared about personal experiences?
And this whole thing, one of the many things I've been yelling about my whole life is, why, Rob Reiner, are they such a burden on the medical system when they... The first thing out of your mouth is they don't see their 65th birthday. The next thing out of your mouth is there's such a burden on the medical system.
As far as I know, the emphysema and the lung cancer and all that stuff, you die as fast as you can die with that. Whereas my grandpappy hung on until 93, my grandmother hung on to 92, and they went back and forth to Cedars-Sinai for the last 20 years of their lives, costing millions of dollars. So wouldn't you rather my grandpa kick off a massive coronary at 63?
It would have been nice if it had a little something called dignity. So, yes, I like smokers because they smoke and then they die. But I just don't like the luging part of the smoking. All right. That's one of the things I said. The other thing that I've been saying. I wish someone was here. You don't, Gina. We don't go back that far. But, Brian, my entire life, don't use soap.
Everyone grosses out, right? I don't use shampoo. As long as I've known you. Gross out. Gross out. And I keep saying why we change the floor and the fauna of what's on us. Your skin. When they do, and I'm going to show you a clip someone tweeted me from the Today Show. But if your skin is the biggest organ in your body, as they say, the biggest organ is your skin.
And they're starting to get into all this probiotic stuff and like you're killing the flora and fauna inside of you and then all the antibiotics and all the repercussions of what's happening inside of you. Well, if your biggest organ is your skin and you're scrubbing it with Purell, Every night, aren't you fucking with the flora and the fauna on the skin?
You would think that our skin to the first however many millions of years of human evolution has developed ways to clean itself, shed itself, keep itself going. Obviously, people have skin conditions, but I imagine that's less than 1% of the population.
I get labeled gross every time I go. I just rinse. But everyone wants to know why I'm such a gross pig every time. And when this whole Purell thing kicked off, I was not on board with it. Never have been on board with it. What do you mean by rinse, though? Is it just water? Hot water. So no soap at all. I'll use it in the nether regions.
In the pits.
Yes. No, not in the crack.

Chapter 4: What high school memories do Dean Devlin and Adam Carolla share?
Yeah, we's back. Dean Devlin is here. Thanks for having me. I'm excited about this. Turns out we went to high school together.
A couple of Huskies.
Go NH. Real quick, Nate Burleson is here playing the league for, well, let's see, I guess start off in 03 with Minnesota, Seattle, Detroit, Cleveland. Lots of catches, lots of insight. And Joe told him to call in. Nate? What's going on? Good to speak to you, Nate. NFL Total Access. is one of the places you can find Nate.
Nate, I can't stand it when they tell you the score of the game before they show you the highlight package. Is there anything you can do about that? Yeah, I was just talking to Joe off air, and he told me that, We got to do something about the premature eject you highlight because Adam is really in his feelings. I got pink eyes.
Nobody told you to wait until the day after to get caught up on the actual score of the game. Come on, bro.
You got to do that Sunday night. Don't put all the pressure on us because we want to speed through our script on the day we want to do other stuff.
All right, you do it on the day after, but there are plenty of guys who do it Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock on the West Coast right after the game's finished.
You took that picture yesterday.
Yes. Actually, you're right. You're right. I do see that quite often, maybe because I'm in it so much and I've played for 11 years.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of changing NFL rules discussed?
So, like, when I'm watching the highlights, I don't want to see every single intricacy because I was involved in every intricacy.
Right.
I kind of look at it differently, but just because it's you, and I'm not just saying this because I'm just saying this, but Joe knows I'm a huge fan of TV and comedy, so I'm going to put in a special word just for you, so if you notice a change,
We're going to have to do this conversation over, and I just need a little pat on the back.
You'll get more than a pat on the back. You're going to get a thumb. I will say this, Nate. I complained for years about raising the goalpost. Raise the goalpost. The ball keeps going right over the top of the upright. Raise the upright. It's just five, six feet. And they finally did it a couple of years ago, and I used to do it with Rich Eisen all the time.
And any time I sat down with anyone on any football-related whatever, Two weeks ago in OT, I think the Cincinnati kicker hit the upright about two foot down from the top, and it careemed in, and they won the game. And two or three years ago, that just would have went over the top, and the old man with the cataracts looking straight up into the sun would have either said fair or foul.
But I probably would have waved that one off. So this can be our next mission, Nate.
This will be ā I think this one isn't as ā big of a part into the game as the goalposts. I feel you on that. I definitely agree.
I remember everybody talking about doing something about the extra points and the field goal kickers. So I'm glad that there was that change, and I'm glad that they moved the extra point back. It makes everything a little bit more interesting. NFL, Total Access, Nate Burleson. Thank you, Nate. I appreciate you doing this on short notice. It's all good, man. Anything for Joe, man. He hit me up.

Chapter 6: What insights does Dean Devlin provide about his film career?
Okay, okay. Can I drink? Is that cool? Yeah. We provide it. Oh, you provide it? Oh, man. I'm going to introduce you to Nate to thank, man, because we're going to get down. I'm going to give you some Mangria, Nate.
Celebrity endorser.
That'll be it.
You'll never stop thanking me.
You can keep the Sangria, but just let me get a double vodka on the rocks.
Oh, no. This is Mangria. That's what you say now. You're going to like it. Thank you, Nate. Appreciate it. Dean Devlin here, the librarian. And two-hour season premiere, November 1st, 8 o'clock on TNT. Nice job, by the way, Dean. Thank you. I watched that episode just yesterday. Very interesting about, well, let's see. Rebecca Romijn's in this thing. And who else have we got?
Oh, what's his name? Noah Wiley. Night Court, I'm thinking about. John Larroquette. John Larroquette. The underappreciated John Larroquette. Oh, yeah. That guy's got some chops.
In his day, he used to book, you know, he'd get like an Emmy Award every week. It was crazy. But he's kind of been...
I know. It's kind of a weird thing because you sort of see what's going on with Jeff Daniels. And you go, isn't John Larroquette sort of Jeff Daniels? I mean, in about the same time and the same age and the same arc and the same whatever. I feel like maybe this is going to be the launching pad for Larroquette.

Chapter 7: What humorous scenarios do they envision regarding Halloween and zombies?
He could be sitting on that chair, or he may be in the next room. We don't know. He could get run over by a trolley car. Yeah, we had an invisible man. We had a mummy. The mummy's just wrapped in toilet paper and moved super slow.
Yeah, I was going to say, what do you think is the next comeback? Is it going to be mummies? Is it going to be werewolves?
Creature from the Black Lagoon? I don't know. Whatever that they lived, people were. All I know is the whole fucking zombie part. He was like a zombie mermaid. Who was? A creature from the Black Lagoon? No, he was just a guild whatever. Says you. Gotcha there. I thought it was, yeah. Remember Sigmund? We had Sigmund the Sea Monster, too. All right, right.
No, no, just random aquatic riffing, please. Kaelin loves Walking Dead. Other things that exist in water? Sea monkeys, abalone. Just keep throwing things out. There you go.
Paramecium.
You like, Kaelin, you like The Walking Dead? Less so as the seasons go on, but I was a big, big fan at one point. What are you getting out of it? Well, I read the comic books first. We're finished. Jesus Christ. What I'm saying is, are we all... That guy's full time here, isn't he? He was. Are we all just sitting in some waiting room, like waiting to die? I think... If you're on The Walking Dead.

Chapter 8: What insights do they share about the impact of societal issues on parenting?
Yes.
I think people ā I think it's escapist entertainment. I think that's what it is. I would imagine ā I don't mean to shit on your point, but with The Walking Dead ā No, I know it's all ā Yeah, but I imagine it's less zombies than just a story that you can get lost in.
It all is escapism. I mean ā That's all it is. I mean, that's what everything is. But how much escaping do we really want to do in our adult lives?
Right. Are your video games becoming ā do you feel too grounded when you do that so you need to go to another world?
That's what I'm saying. There's flat panel TVs. There's pornography everywhere. You have a computer. You can look up anything you want. You can essentially become an expert on any topic if you gave yourself a weekend. Why do we need to escape so much?
I do wonder what the whole zombie thing represents, though. I mean, I imagine if I were writing a paper about it, I would say that we've turned into zombies with all of our devices.
Is that why it's grabbing us? Why? What is it?
I was going to say, it's oncoming inevitable death. The zombies will never stop. They're coming after your brains.
Yeah, it is the word of life.
