What is the purpose of Corolla Classics?

Welcome to Corolla Classics. I'm your host, superfan Giovanni. This is the podcast where we play the best moments, highlights, and fan-selected clips from all 16 years of The Adam Corolla Show. We have a companion podcast titled Corolla Classics. You can find the ad-free archives exclusively available through PodcastOne.plus. And if you'd like to get access to the ad-free archives of The Adam Corolla Show and The Adam and Dr. Drew Show, as well as access to the brand-new podcast, Beat It Out, make sure to check out Adam Corolla's Substack, adamcorolla.substack.com. And if you'd like to request a clip, please email us, classics at adamcarolla.com. All right, let's get to the clips. Coming up first, we have Adam Carolla Show 187.

This one's from 2009, featuring Teresa Strasser and Brian Bishop. It might be the only episode of Teresa and Brian that's never been played in classics, if it hasn't already been played. We're running out of Teresa and Brian stuff. We've played so much over the years and so many different clips from it. It was such a short time in the podcast run. This is when they were coming on doing weekly episodes. After the death of the morning show format, Adam would still have Teresa and Brian once a week or twice a week. News stories, sometimes sound effects once they actually got a board installed for Brian and once his treatments allowed it. Hope you guys enjoy this episode.
Teresa Strasser 1:22
We're doing one of our day and date shows. It's Wednesday, the 28th. And who's in studio? Well, Teresa Strasser and Bald Brian. Lots of news for both of them personally, and then we'll do a little bit of news outside of their own personal news. First... Let's talk about the benefit. Thank you all who have purchased your tickets. We have sold out essentially the floor of the Wilshire E. Bell Theatre. We've sold about 650 tickets already. They said we couldn't do it, but you guys have stepped up in a huge way. Now we're opening up the rest of the theatre, the balcony and the loge and maybe even the lobby and parts of the roof.
Adam Carolla 2:04
The early aspects are far less than a solo ready. Yeah. So we're way ahead of our projections.
Teresa Strasser 2:09
Well, here's what I want to say to everyone. I actually got into it with my agent because my agent basically said, look, he represents Jon Stewart and he represents Stephen Colbert and he represents a lot of guys who go out and do a lot of live shows. And he said... The industry is really bad right now. The business is really bad. Even guys like Jon Stewart are having trouble selling tickets. I don't know. Leno had to cancel a show or had to cancel his love ride this year and so on and so forth. So not only are ticket sales and comedy ticket sales sort of in the toilet, but the benefit stuff goes too. When the economy goes bad, let's face it, people don't have $100 to see Dana Gould. That's the bottom line.

What clips are featured in this episode?

Teresa Strasser 2:57
So he basically said... You guys are going to try to do a 1,250-seat venue at $100 a ticket. It ain't going to work. You're going to embarrass yourself. You're going to embarrass the talent. You better think this over. And I said it, but in a much more insulting way. That's a nice version. I said, we're few, but we're proud. We have a very dedicated audience, and I think they're going to step up and come through for us. And he said, I don't think they're going to do it. And as a matter of fact, he's the one who suggested we lock off the loge and lock off the balcony until the bottom section got sold out just so it could appear that we had an audience when you're up on stage.
Bald Bryan 3:40
Right. This is very heartwarming. You know, some of the planning was going down at my place. And Christy, Brian's wife, was saying what Babydoll doesn't get is how dedicated your listeners are. They're not, I mean, they really have stepped up.
Teresa Strasser 3:56
Yeah, and so you could have four or five million people watching Leno, but a very small portion of them might go out and see the show, which is we have a much smaller group with a much larger percentage coming out and supporting and just showing the love of Bald Brian.
