In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam kicks things off with a rant about his recent trip to the car wash, where a worker left tape stuck to his rear window wiper. He then shares stories from his time in San Diego, including a bizarre run-in with a crazy homeless guy. This leads to a deeper conversation about Los Angeles’s homelessness crisis and an old hit piece on Dr. Drew, written when he volunteered to join the L.A. Homeless Services Authority. The article, headlined “Dr. Drew eyed for homeless commission, angering advocates who wonder: Is this a joke?”, becomes a jumping-off point for Adam to break down the politics and media spin surrounding the situation.
Later, Jason “Mayhem” Miller joins the show to discuss the latest headlines, starting with the dramatic moment NASCAR driver Connor Zilisch was rushed to the hospital after a post-race celebration went wrong. The 19-year-old had just scored a major win at Watkins Glen when he fell from the roof of his car, knocking himself out in front of the crowd. They also cover the backlash to David Justice’s remarks about his ex-wife Halle Berry, where he claimed her lack of domestic habits played a role in their split—sparking a wave of online defense for Berry. Rounding out the segment, Adam and Mayhem react to news of Gina Carano settling her lawsuit with Disney and Lucasfilm, a case centered on her claim she was wrongfully fired from The Mandalorian for her political views, with speculation about what “future opportunities” with the studio might mean.
In the vlog, Adam welcomes businessman and philanthropist Rick Caruso for a candid conversation about L.A.’s future. Rick shares whether he’s considering another run for mayor, gives an inside look at his Palisades Rec Center renovation, and explains how he protected his own properties — and why a private fire department might be the smartest investment you can make.
Get it on.
