Adam Carolla Show

In this episode, Adam and Mayhem break down why more Gen Z workers are abandoning traditional white-collar careers in favor of trade jobs, and they cover the Senate’s unanimous approval of a $25,000 tax break for tipped workers—though the bill applies only to cash tips.

Later in the show, biohacker and entrepreneur Dave Asprey stops by the studio to talk about his new book Heavily Meditated (available now) and his journey from simply wanting to lose 100 pounds to leading a health and wellness revolution. Dave and Adam discuss the myth of the in-shape health inspector, Dave’s daily routine, what he eats (and avoids), his commitment to intermittent fasting, and Adam’s story about his mother’s 19-year junior college journey as a form of avoidance.

Listen in as Dave’s biohacking mindset collides with Adam’s tough-love philosophy, and they explore why your nervous system is like your phone—and why having thousands of unread text messages might actually be a good thing. Get it on.

Legendary comedian and radio host Rickey Smiley joins Adam in studio to talk about his new comedy special FOOLISH, dropping May 30th on Hulu. Rickey opens up about grief, faith, and the heartbreaking loss of his son Brandon in 2023. He shares how leaning on his spirituality has helped him—and others—through tragedy, and why therapy, faith, and hands-on work like being a pilot or a mechanic can keep comedians grounded. Adam opens up about his own envy of Rickey’s faith, and the two connect over the importance of staying sane in a chaotic world. Rickey also shares stories from his Alabama upbringing, being raised by his grandparents, and why his mom working at Arby’s left him with strong opinions about fast food.

Jason “Mayhem” Miller jumps in for the news of the day, including a $30,000 cocktail, Joe Rogan’s turn toward Christianity, the DNC’s multi-million dollar plan to figure out how to talk to men, Russia’s continued Olympic ban, and Adam's take on a controversially named pill.

To close out the show, Kirk Cameron zooms in to talk about becoming a grandfather, the pitfalls of relying on Alexa to parent your kids, and his hope for a country led by competent adults. He also plugs his new kids’ show Iggy & Mr. Kirk, now streaming on Brave+. Get it on.
