On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam opens by discussing the recent efforts to defund NPR and recalls how a past interview he did with them turned into a failed “gotcha” moment. He then recaps his adventurous weekend at Road America in Wisconsin, where he raced on the iconic track, faced unexpected delays, and got locked out of his Airbnb at 2:00 a.m. He also reflects on the genius of This Is Spinal Tap, shares a story about losing his luggage—which included a ribeye steak inside—and vents about airport employees who make everything about them.

Elisha Krauss joins Adam for the news! They kick things off with the viral “kiss cam” scandal at a Coldplay concert, which led to the resignation of the CEO of Astronomer after a woman abruptly fled the frame and set social media ablaze. The HR executive involved turned out to be connected to the powerful Cabot family, sparking even more public curiosity. They also react to the surprising announcement that The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will be canceled in May 2026, and discuss In-N-Out President Lynsi Snyder’s decision to move her family out of California as the company expands to the eastern U.S.

Get it on.
