From Corolla One Studios in Glendale, California, this is The Adam Corolla Show. Adam's guest today, Rob Schneider. Plus the news with Rudy Povich. And now, Adam Corolla. Yeah, get it on. Got to get it on. No choice. They're going to mandate you get it on. Welcome the star of Down Periscope, Rob Schneider. Yeah, man. Oh, come on. That was a fun one, man. That's back when...
You could make movies that were fun. I mean, I literally... Saw it in the theater. No, I know exactly where I was. Yeah? Yeah. Saw it alone. Saw it in the theater. Was working for K-Rock. Started doing, like, movie reviews. And that movie must have been late 94, early 95. 95, yeah. 95. And I'm telling you...
I never want to go to a movie alone, but when you review movies, you just have to go alone because you've got a job to do. And you kind of get more out of them. You kind of remember more. I think so. I remember the first day, first show. Kelsey Grammer. I had to go see Meaning of Life because Monty Python. Yeah, I had to go.
And there was only two people at the 12 o'clock show in San Francisco on the Friday to see it. And it was me and the guy laughing in the very last row. It was like, ha, ha. And I went, oh, that's Robin back there. Oh, really? So it was Robin. At the 1130 a.m. show. What year, what were you doing back then? This must have been 82.
So, I mean, literally at 16, I remember at 15, I told my dad, I said, you know, there's a comedy club in San Francisco and they'll let anybody on Monday nights if you sign up. And he said two words, let's go. Really? And so he took me there and I had like my trombone, you know, I didn't know what I was doing.

Chapter 2: How does Rob Schneider critique the media's handling of COVID-19?
Let's not anger the criminals is kind of a weird it's a weird position to be in. It's like who's who votes for you? Illegals, criminals, felons and people that are ripping off the government. All right. Let's not anger them. Well, what would anger them? I don't know, enforcement of our laws? Okay, well, we don't get on the wrong side of the people that vote for us.
What you're opening up is a chasm here, and what you're really saying is that there are people that can— this society is particularly susceptible to bad faith actors, for people to come in without the best intentions and to abuse the system that has afforded them these incredible freedoms and luxuries. I mean, the thing about this country is if you get in— whew, you are lucky.
If you become an American citizen, it is incredible. However, if you come in with bad intentions or you come in here and you realize there's a system that you could really corrupt and that could be corrupted to benefit you, it doesn't seem that difficult. These don't seem to be like highly educated people who are able to figure out the system. Right. Yes. And Tom Cruise coming from the ceiling.
Yeah. On a wire. They're filling out forms. Well, I mean, when you see, when they go to these places, you know, strip malls with 15 learning centers in the same building and, you know, there's a... The place is a hospice, but it's a mop closet and there's nobody ever there. Like it is like all you would have to do is put a very minimum amount of effort into discovering this stuff.
And it's very accessible, like super easy. Like the guy who blew the lid off the whole thing. He's a kid. Yeah. That guy doesn't even have two microphones. He has to hold a lab and then hold the other one. Like, that guy went down to fucking Radio Shack and spent 28 bucks. He does not even have a second microphone.
He has an iPhone 9 and one microphone that he clips off his lapel and then holds it at the guy. The guy probably thinks he's talking to a dead mouse or something. And... That's it. I was able to undo the whole thing. Yeah, and the career of Tim Walz collapsed right after that. Yeah, that's – well, the Democratic Party just doesn't consider any repercussions or any downfall to just –
No matter what it takes just to maintain power. And it really is – it's sad because you would think – because we only get two political parties. We don't get ten. You would think we would need two normal political parties. And truthfully, we don't have any. And the Democratic leadership to not come out and at least – that was the thing that really bothered me a lot was –
When things were exposed during COVID, you know, when the censorship regime, it said, yes, the government, the first thing, within the first 24 hours, they censured Bobby Kennedy. That was like the first thing.
Before they did anything, before they opened up the borders to a lot of millions of people, the first thing they did was to contact Mark Zuckerberg and Meta, before Meta, and Facebook and say, listen, you have to – you can't let this guy talk and blah, blah, blah. You have to censor these people. almost pretty much that bold.

Chapter 3: What are Rob Schneider's thoughts on the Norm Macdonald documentary?
I have no idea why they're doing this to their business, though. Somebody has to get hold of these guys. Because it's not a business. I guess not. For them, it's not a business.
To me, it seems like trying to – for what you're describing about people not being able to see that Fauci was a con man and a liar who had managed to just survive and causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people during the AIDS epidemic, at least 100,000.
is they weren't able to see it because, again, it's these people coming in with bad faith, whether it's a country like the United States coming in here to destroy this or steal as much as they can from a pirate culture like Somalia. And it is – if you listen to Ayaan Hirsi Ali, she'll tell you this is a pirate culture.
And they're going to come in and take whatever they can because of stupid people in Minnesota. Here – I'll tell you another tell and then I'll play this Fauci clip because you'll get it when you hear it. There's a couple of tells. It's not being agnostic, like just literally going, I don't know if that medication will work. Try it, talk to your doctor.
I don't know where, I don't know the origin of COVID. It makes sense it's from the lab, but I don't know. when they all of a sudden don't know stuff and they formerly knew everything. So it's like when they said to Fauci, what about natural immunity? He's like, I don't know. I don't know anything about it.
It's like, oh, you don't know anything because you knew everything about this, but now you don't know anything. Now you're lying. So listen to him. What is this from, by the way? I remember going to the airport after this and yelling at everyone in the car. what was going on. But this is July 2020. And Fauci, this is early. And this is Fauci being confused.
Mr. Chairman, Dr. Fauci, do protests increase the spread of the virus? Do protests increase the spread of the virus? I think I can make a general statement that Well, half a million protesters on June 6 alone, I'm just asking, that number of people, does it increase the spread of the virus? Crowding together, particularly when you're not wearing a mask, contributes to the spread of the virus.
Should we limit the protesting? I'm not sure what you mean. How do we say limit? Okay, first thing. I'm dumb. I'm dumb. What do you mean? How do we limit? You shut down every church. You shut down every school. You shut down the beaches. You shut everything down. What do you mean? How do we limit?
You took bulldozers and you scooped sand into skate parks and you tore down the beach volleyball nets. Yes. You cut down the beach volleyball nets and you welded pipes over basketball hoops at the park. And you covered nets around swing sets. And you arrested a guy who was paddle boarding in the bay. So what do you mean, how do we police this?

Chapter 4: What issues does Rob Schneider raise regarding Trevor Noah's views on trans athletes?
I know. It's maddening. And it makes me so angry because my mother passed away during COVID in 1991 in January. And they said—and it was in California, of course. And they're like, no, well, you can't have— Wait a minute. You just said 1991. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. 2000—I'm sorry. 2021. Okay, good. Sorry for laughing. That was a joke. No, 2021. And that was, you know, hot COVID at the time.
And they said, you can't have a funeral. And I was like, fuck this. We're having a funeral for my mother. And if people want to show up, we'll do it outside, but we're having one. And you try to stop me. And that's what I told the funeral home. And that's what I told the cemetery we're having. We're having one. And if you're not going to provide the chairs, I'll bring my own chairs.
And if you don't want to provide anything, you don't have to provide anything. It's my mother, and I paid for that casket, and we're going to have it outside, and I'm going to have chairs, I'm going to have flowers, I'm going to have musicians, and we're going to have my mother exit this place in a beautiful way, as dignified as what is required for our loved ones.
And the fact that they didn't want to have that, I had it anyway. But it was interesting because one of the weird flukes that happens in life is that I became friends with this guy, and I didn't say his name in the book. Because he worked, he's a brilliant doctor, Dr. David Klonoff. And I think I could say it now. He was working at NIH. One of the guys was working, hired by the government.
He's a professor of medicine. And like I said, he didn't put it in the book. And he said, July 3rd, 2020. I said, what's going on really? This is 2020, early, around the same time, maybe a week or two before this. And he said to me, receptor 26 looks a little sticky, but don't quote me. Because he was saying that this is man-made, that this seems manipulated. And that's his way of saying it.
And I'm a layman. What do I know? But I knew enough to know that that means it's man-made. And he said, don't quote me because they will – what happened was if you told the truth back then, they'll ruin your career. I know. And that's so that's why, you know, David Klont, a great man. And at the time, he knew that he couldn't.
And, you know, he's working for the government at the time and trying to figure this thing out. And then but imagine this is a guy, one of the most smartest guys. This is a guy who, you know, the foremost leading authority on diabetes in the world. These guys helped design, you know, artificial pancreas. This guy's a genius. And they're stifling geniuses. This is where.
that that this uh asshole fauci was at the top of this thing squelching any truth coming out oh there's emails of him saying silence people all right well listen listen go back 10 seconds but listen this is july 2020 listen to fauci lying protesting the government limit the protesting i i i don't think that's relevant to well you just said if it increases the spread of the virus i'm just asking should we limit it
Well, I'm not in a position to determine what the government can do in a forceful way. Well, you make all kinds of recommendations. You make comments on dating, on baseball, on everything you can imagine. I'm just asking, you just said protests increased the spread. I'm just asking, should we try to limit the protests?

Chapter 5: How does Rob Schneider discuss generational differences in work ethic?
Well, I'm not going to opine on limiting anything. I'm telling you what it is, the danger. And you can make your own conclusion about that. By the way, hold on a second. If this guy wasn't corrupted and had a fucking shred of dignity and wasn't a liar, he would just go, yeah, no Black Lives Matter rallies and no Christian faith rallies and no KKKs. through marching in the street. Know any of it.
The virus doesn't know if you're racist or you're pro-BLM or you have a gay flag. Yeah, it's all bad. Just say it. It was all politics with these assholes. Well, the whole point is he's covered because he's allowed to say I will shut down the Pittsburgh Steelers bar, and I'll shut down the gay bar. And I'll shut down the church, and I'll shut down the liquor store. It's all that.
It doesn't matter if you're a Raiders fan or a Rams fan, both games are canceled. That's what he could have said, but he wouldn't do it here. He circled and circled and circled because he was so scared of getting into trouble with his BLM masters. By the way, what the fuck's BLM have to do with COVID anyway? It has everything to do with COVID if you're corrupted like he was. He was.
But the idea was to take down Trump at that time. Anything to take down Trump, and that was part of it, and he was part of it. He cornered Trump, and they all lied to him. It was Birx, and it was him, and it was Redfield, and they basically said, like, if you don't, four million Americans will die, and you'll be known as the plague president, blah, blah, blah, if you don't shut down the country.
And shutting down the country for two weeks was just getting their toe in the door to tyranny, and they meant to keep it as long as they could keep it until everybody got the experimental gene therapy. And it's just a... It was one of those things that happened. But how do Democrats not see it? And the only way I could describe it is I remember there's a story from Alan Watts.
He was talking about the shaman because there was something so outside of their – ability when the conquistadors came to the new world that literally it was unimaginable to them. That's why I see the Democratic Party. It's unimaginable to see this gigantic corruption and these morons for what they are and that the system is just completely filled with lies.
It's the same thing when the shaman had to come out and explain in the language of their own tribesmen to get them to visualize and see something as big as like this boat with these sails and these conquistadors because they couldn't imagine it. Right. You know what's interesting? I love it when they tell both stories. So he's...
Talking about shutting down all events and ball games and sporting events and churches and beaches, and then simultaneously saying, I have no opinion on a huge Black Lives rally. Yeah. Right. Okay. So that's it. The thing that's going on now, which is kind of interesting, is it's been months and months and months of Trump is a rogue dictator. He doesn't answer anyone. He does whatever he wants.
He runs roughshod over the... Constitution, and he bullies everyone, and he just is a tyrannical dictator who dances to the beat of his own drum and does whatever he wants. Now we're right into he's Netanyahu's puppet, and he's Putin's puppet. So the same people that are explaining that he's a dictator that makes all his own rules is now explaining that he's

Chapter 6: What are the implications of media bias during the pandemic according to Rob Schneider?
You know... If you're Naomi Campbell, but it doesn't usually happen. OK, so Hunter Biden's laptop was buried by the press. Even the head of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, said that was a mistake. Sam Harris says it was appropriate.
It was appropriate for Twitter and the heads of big tech and the heads of journalistic organizations to feel that they were in the presence of something that is a once in a lifetime moral emergency. meaning Trump. So he's saying it's okay to have a conspiracy to get rid of somebody as bad as Trump.
It's a little bit of a thorny question because once you go down this road, this is sort of where we are in this country. The other side is so evil, anything is justified in preventing them from taking office. Is it? No, no. You know what's not justified? Using armed violence to try to kill people in the Capitol. All right. So change the subject. Nobody was armed. No one tried to kill anybody.
Well, somebody got killed. But no, this is not the right. You can play the clip out. It's not the one we have on our computer. But you get the point, though. It's they know he there's a part he doesn't know. You'll you'll see it. I don't know where – you can play this one out. In his own political echo chamber, it's more than just – you're saying it's more than just a political echo chamber.
They're saying when they hear the news, they don't hear it. They can't imagine it. Many people on the left who I speak to have no idea what I'm talking about. Yeah. When you bring up subjects or names or something. Evidence. Evidence. Like you bring stuff up. They don't know and they think you got that. Because Sean Hannity sent you a text or something like that.
Is it the same thing as the people taking advantage of the very vulnerable, gullible people in Minnesota, the Somalians taking advantage? I think the Democratic Party is taking advantage of these gullible people as well. I agree. It's the same thing. Where is that clip there, Dawson? It's driving me nuts because we used to have it. We played it on our computer a few times.
I can't wait for the press to start washing down the idea of this new shooter trying to break into a school in Michigan. They're going to water that down, and they're not going to say that that was an Islamic terrorist. His name, of course, is Mohammed. Here we go, sir.
this road this is sort of where we are in this country the other side is so evil anything is justified in preventing them from taking office is it no no you know what's not justified using armed violence to try to kill people in the capital that's not justified answer this question Was it? Answer this question. What is the question? The question is, was it appropriate to bury the Hunter Biden?
You're talking about the press doing that? He's saying that's what they did and that is what they did. They buried the Hunter Biden story before the election because they were like, we can't risk having the election thrown to Trump. We'll tell them after the election. And we know for a fact that that's what they did? Of course. You don't follow this? You know for a fact that that's what they did?

Chapter 7: How does Rob Schneider address the topic of immigration and opportunity in the U.S.?
Because, like, I'll give you an example. Guy's written a story about me, a long article about me. And I don't know that much about it. But he does these things on Norm MacDonald, and he does U2, the band, and stuff like that. And for some reason, he thought he should do something on me. And so I was talking to him.
And he's going, well, you and your stance and how you are and your takes on COVID and stuff like that. Obviously, that's probably not made you real popular in Hollywood. And I said, yeah, I have a few parties I haven't been invited to. And he said, well, who are some of the people and what are some of the situations? And I said...
Well, you know, I used to go to Phil Rosenthal's house for pizza parties, but I'm no longer invited to the pizza party. And, you know, David Alan Greer used to be best friends with him, but he sort of called me a... white supremacists or whatever he called or called me. And there's like Mark Maron would talk shit about me on stage and stuff.
So it's like, there's people, you know, probably not a fan of my politics and I don't talk to them anymore. And I formally, you know, had a decent relationship with them and we don't, they don't have that anymore. So he, when he's writing the story, well, I just learned this yesterday. He goes around and he goes, well, who would be interesting to talk about you?
And I said, well, you want to talk to Kimmel? All right, talk to Kimmel. He talks to Kimmel. Who else? Mike August is pushing this stuff. He goes, well, give him a talk to Kevin Costner. I go, I don't know. I'm going to bug Kevin Costner. Yeah, okay. Kevin Costner's happy. I talk to him for an hour. Happy to talk to him. Alec Baldwin. Yeah. Alec Baldwin gets on, talks to the guy for an hour.
None of those guys ended up in the article, right? Judd Apatow. The article hasn't come out yet. But Judd Apatow talks to him. Bill Simmons talks to him. He gets everybody. Yeah. All right. Then he says to me, I tried to put a call in to David Helen Greer and Phil Rosenthal and Mark Maron and other people would talk to me. And the answer – now, it's not because they're pissed.
It's because they're wrong. They're embarrassed. What they did is shameful. Yeah, it is. And they can't fucking defend it. So they're being cowards now and they're not going to talk to it. And they won't – they can't defend it and they won't defend it. So they ignore that it happened. It's just a death by ignorance. You guys were all fucking wrong about everything, especially COVID.
You punished me for being right. And now you're too cowardly to talk to a reporter. No, they're all pussies. I mean, ultimately they are. And it's a shame. And there are liberals that I get along with and that are fine. And I don't think – I don't even want to label them. It's just these are Americans or some of them that have –
I've completely disagreed with before, but like you can have communication and talk to them and you get them out of that thing. Just like Rob Reiner. If he sat here, he'd be the greatest, funnest guy to hang out with. Sweet. He has. And he's a great guy. You know, and then like, you know, Jim Jeffries is I just talked to him yesterday. He's the sweetest, loveliest guy.

Chapter 8: What final thoughts does Rob Schneider leave about societal changes?
I'd be like... I don't know. I'd like to have a drink after the show. I think I'd stay in the hotel. I'll just go and pay. You want to pay for a hotel room? Why don't you stay for free? I'd like to stay for free, but I'd like to have a drink. Also, how'd this nerd get into our green room? Get the hell out of here, you dork. Get the hell out of here, you Mormons. I get it.
These people are fucking hardcore drug addicts. So they would rather do the drugs than take the bed. So homelessness is a massive problem in LA. It's fueled by drug addicts. I... I defy you to find somebody who's sleeping outdoors on a fucking sidewalk with roaches and rats on a piece of cardboard that's not high, drunk, intoxicated, whatever. And I think, first off...
The homeless population that are just folks that got because the factory closed down and they got pushed out on the street or the wife that got divorced. I think that fucking number zero. I think that number zero. I don't think it's like people do a thing where they go a small percentage of them are just moms that are down on their. I don't think I think that number zero. I've never seen it.
I've traveled thousands of miles through this city. So have you. So, so, so. I've never seen a sober mom walking around with her kids. It's all fucking junkies. It's all crazy junkies. All right. And then they go, well, but what about the people's schizophrenia? Some of it, small percentage. I think it's a small percentage. I think if anyone really got to the bottom of this.
what percentage of people who are sleeping outdoors are not using something? Do you think there's someone who's just stone cold sober who just goes to bed that night? I don't think it exists. So drugs and addiction is driving this problem. It is the cause of the problem. And five years ago,
Dr. Drew, who's an addiction medicine specialist, who's been specializing in that field for about 40 years, said to the LA City Council You do not have anybody in this homeless task force that's an addiction medicine specialist, yet addiction is the number one problem that you guys have to solve. So that sort of sounds insane.
It'd be like saying if the biggest problem with the homeless is not enough inexpensive housing, but nobody on the board had any building experience, no architecture experience, no engineering experience, that would be kind of dumb because you're all just in the dark now. So the city council has nobody who has addiction medicine expertise of any kind, just a bunch of dumb fucking yentas.
And Dr. Drew says, I will volunteer my services to work with you to address this problem. And they tell him to go pound sand. They go, fuck off. Yeah. So would one then assume that they were interested in solving this problem? This is, by the way, like Scheinbaum telling Trump to fuck off. Anybody with any field of expertise, hey, white guy, fuck off.
A white guy who knows a whole bunch of shit and might be able to impact your problem, yeah, you can fuck off too. Which means, A, they're not that interested in solving the problem, but B— They get paid no matter what, because if you got paid based on performance, you'd be dying for that guy to volunteer his information.
