Hello, Adam Carolla.
Good day, Bald Brian.
Adam Carolla.
So much to talk about, so much to do. Rob Riggle's going to be on. Also, Kelly James, you know him. He comes in here and does his freestyle song strumming, and it's absolutely unbelievable stuff. So lots to talk about and complain about. First, a couple things I didn't get done.
Something that was very ironic from the other day that I didn't completely tell you guys about, which was when I did my book photo shoot, And how did your talk with your attorney go today, by the way, or the book attorney? I'm so glad you brought that up.

Chapter 2: What are the highlights from Rob Riggle's appearance?
Yeah, no, he's much better than all of us put together, but he... What is going on? He did... I tried to say to him that, you know, I tried to go, yeah, Brian's sharp cookie, and I was like, no, no, no. There's more here than that, which was... Again, you listen to Adam and Drew podcast. I think you'll hear it on the air.
That's awesome.
As I recall.
I'm really flattered. That's really cool.
So now... Yes, two hours with the attorney because what they do is this is where you realize it's going to be a long haul. They go, all right, top of page three, and the book's 331 pages. Top of page three, and then there's 20 minutes, and they go, all right, now let's turn to page 11.
And you're like, oh, shit, this is going to be a long ā unless we skip 200 pages, this is going to be a long slog here.
That's exactly what it was. He was ā I was shocking. Okay. So number one, the overall thing, I was really surprised by how easy the whole thing was. It was a lot of suggesting. I changed a couple words like this absolutely happened versus this may have happened or my interpretation is. He was more concerned.
When you write a book, just to catch everyone up, there's a call that takes place with an attorney who works for the publisher. Mm-hmm. And usually your editor will be on the line and the three of you will comb over the points of concern in the book. So if if if you are like. I titty fuck the shit out of Brooke Shields in 1988 when she was high as a kite, they'll be like.
Did you titty fuck Brooke Shields?

Chapter 3: How does Adam Carolla's humor influence the conversation?
No. They just go, is that correct? Did you titty fuck Miss Shields? And then you go, yeah, titty fuck shit out of her. And then they go- Okay, is she litigious? Is she a friend of yours? And then they start getting into the, what if you just said a very famous model? And then they go, and then you go, what if we said a Calvin Klein girl? And they'll go, it might be a little too close.
Yeah, there was a lot of... He was concerned with how ā there was that exact moment where he's like ā I'll give it away. He's like, did Jack Silver really dress up as a breathalyzer test for Halloween with the breathalyzer tube right at his penis? And I was like, yes, I have the picture. Right. Yeah. So that stayed in.
He's like ā and there were a lot of ā is this person still alive or are they ā would they be upset about this?
Does it make you how ā does he realize like how ā does your buddy Ray actually put a garden hose in his ass and filled up and then you went through the jack-in-the-box drive-thru? Absolutely. Really? And you're like, oh, yeah. No, this sounds insane.
I said, if you Google Jack Silver costume, that's the first picture that comes up. And is that not the first picture that comes up?
Well, there it is.
So you can't you can't libel that man. You can't. Look at that picture. You can't be libelous.
It says blow here with an arrow pointing to which is his penis over it.
Fair to him, it was a make-a-wish foundation Halloween gala where we were raising money, and that was his best way of... It was poor foresight for the kids to all be at that height. Yeah, just a five- and six-year-old is probably not a good idea. Yeah, we were at the Playboy Mansion, so there's a little context. Sure. Sure.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of the recent stamp controversy?
It might be... Might be on there. Yes. Wow. Good pull. It's not really fair to them. That's what I would say. All right.
I just thought it was interesting how he kind of turned into a Valley Girl rap star at the end. He said, like with every other word, but then also truth.
All right.
Now, some people, though, think that this whole thing was a stunt. And I know it wasn't.
No.
But do you understand where that thought is coming from?
Yes, because he's the boy who cried stunt. This is fresh off of the back of a stunt that he cooked and set up. It was ingenious, but of course, whatever you do next is going to happen.
And especially when it's netting such huge ratings.
Well, but the ratings come after the stunt, and people are already crying stunt even before the ratings come out.

Chapter 5: How does the discussion about childhood activities relate to current safety concerns?
It's just on the heels of the last one. No one believes the next one, especially when the next one could easily be cooked up this way, but it's not. This is serendipitous.
What I was saying to someone who wondered if it was all stunt was that I don't think ā does Kimmel ever pull a prank and not do a reveal? No. I think there's always that moment where he reveals, right?
When he led me to believe that Natalie Mains from the Dixie Chicks wanted to have violent sex with me in a parking lot, he revealed it. Actually, she revealed it to me. Actually, that was her reveal. He revealed it by standing on his desk and videotaping me.
Most of the fun is the reveal when it comes to a prank.
Yeah.
Otherwise, what's the point of doing the prank? Just so you know.
Yeah, yeah, no. This is not that. No, the only way this would work is if he said he was able to contact Kanye and Kanye was sane. And then he said, I want you to make an ass of yourself with all these horrific tweets. I just don't think Kanye would have been down with that. Plus, I talked to Jimmy about it multiple times.
Kanye called him in his office and started yelling at him and so on and so forth.
He wouldn't tell me that. Right, right.

Chapter 6: What insights are shared about personal responsibility and consequences?
Where are we at, by the way? Where are we going to be 10 years from now? Please sit up.
swallow chew breathe in breathe out breathe like hey kids come on let's get out there and move you know it's like those are loud stamps you're fucking 12 you're supposed to move I remember when I was in middle school that was when the first George Bush had the President's Physical Fitness Challenge you know Schwarzenegger was you in charge and that was the come on kids we can all accomplish these you know run a mile in so many seconds or do so many pushups we did that in my school show run yeah like run a mile do pushups now we're just fucking would you please leave the house and walk
Somewhere. Right. So it's a line of stamps.
Yeah. So each stamp depicts a different physical activity and active lifestyle. But the reason that they are halting the stamps and now destroying them is because President's Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition was they said to pull the plug because they were concerned that these stamps, three of them at least, depict unsafe activities. And the first offending.
First off, is the government shut down or isn't it? Because if it's shut down, let's let's save the stamp burning for after we get things settled up and get back going again.
Number one, Fahrenheit 451 with this.
Yes. And I love the fact. I feel like the government makes my point every fucking 300 times a day with the direction we're going. And the fact that it cost whatever to print these and now it's going to cost whatever to destroy them. First off, what kid ever looks at deals with a stamp? Number one, it's their parents. And I don't know what parents deal a lot these days in stamps, but.
You see a kid, what, doing a handstand?
Well, yeah, okay, so the first offending stamp depicts a child performing a cannonball. The second, a child skateboarding without knee pads.

Chapter 7: What societal changes have affected accountability in behavior?
You used to be able to shame people and teach them a lesson and then that's how the story would end. Now the person either doubles down on their jerk attitude or they show up with an AR-15 the following day and exact their revenge that way. I don't... You know what? I don't hear any... Really, you don't hear so much anymore? Like, I'm sorry. It's never going to happen again.
There's a lot of... Well, you're not... Do you know how many fucking times I've said to somebody, you're not doing something right? And they go, you don't do everything right. And it's like... Was that an effective defense? Super effective. Like, okay, we're both retarded.
Chapter 8: How do personal anecdotes illustrate the breakdown of social contracts?
Now let me continue because I'm paying you. Or whatever the deal is. It's a weird thing where people... That social contract has broken down. Completely. I believe. My daughter said to me the other day, two days ago, I was telling her to do something or whatever. She goes, I'm not one of your assistants. I don't have to listen to you. And I said, no, you're way lower than one of my assistants.
Can I just suggest this young lady write a book called Jerk Nurse?
Just write any book called Jerk Nurse. Jennifer Lawrence options it. It would be the greatest movie of our time. It's going to sell.
I got that not from obviously a child, but from a roommate I had who I did not like. But he wasn't pulling his weight around the apartment. I was just out of college. He was a guy I didn't know in front of a friend.
And he wasn't cleaning up. He wasn't doing anything. He was just kind of freeloading, paying the same rent. But if he was paying cheaper or more, maybe that would be something. But anyhow, one day I was like, Jacob ā Would you mind, please, just once unloading the dishwasher? I mean, I do it every time. It's getting kind of annoying. He's like, fine. And he walked over, and I didn't move.
I was just standing there. I wasn't watching him, but I just happened to be standing where I was standing. He's doing it, and he's like, I'm not your employee, Brian. I was like, uh.
If you would have been fired long ago. I want to fucking find these guys' parents and put them through a fucking wood chipper.
He was very incensed when I asked him to hold the dishwasher once after months of living at the bar.
You don't own him, Brian. You're the boss of him.
