The Adam Carolla Show

In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam kicks things off by venting about a semi-truck blocking the entrance to his studio and the entitled driver behind the wheel. He then dives into a spirited discussion about how every era has its own version of the guy women swoon over, and debates when the best time was to be a junior in high school. Adam and comedian Jonathan Kite reminisce about high school days, wild teachers, and whether Jonathan was a ladies' man. Jonathan showcases his spot-on impressions of Tom Hanks and Al Pacino, leading into a breakdown of the bizarre 1980 film Cruising and its infamous bandana scene. Jonathan also shares his love for the newest Mission: Impossible movie.

In the news, Elisha Krauss joins to cover former Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre's shift to independent status and her new book detailing dysfunction inside the White House. They also discuss Vietnam's repeal of its decades-old two-child policy amid a sharp gender imbalance and dropping birth rates.

To close out the show, Dr. Steven Gundry stops by to talk gut health and nutrition—covering which cooking oils to avoid, the best proteins for your digestive system, and the truth about farm-raised fish. He also reveals what kind of eggs and vegetables are truly good for you, settles the white rice vs. brown rice debate, and names the best cheeses to support a healthy gut. Get it on.

In this episode, comedian Greg Fitzsimmons joins Adam in the studio! Adam kicks things off by explaining why profiling is often misunderstood and why it still matters. He then shares a strange Uber ride story from the road and how he got shortchanged by a club. Adam and Greg discuss the highs and lows of selling merch at live shows, and Adam offers a simple but effective travel life-hack. The guys react to a viral story about a woman claiming her boyfriend gave her a sinus infection by farting in her face, which naturally leads to a nostalgic conversation about the kinds of sandwiches their moms made growing up. Adam reflects on his extremely frugal upbringing and shares his take on the etiquette of picking up the tab when you invite someone to dinner.

Rudy Pavich fills in for Mayhem on the news as he joins Adam and Greg to break down newly leaked lab results involving Olympic boxer Imane Khelif, sparking debate over her biological sex and eligibility to compete in women's boxing. The conversation then shifts to the alarming rise in youth violence across New York City, where NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch and Mayor Eric Adams report a 136% spike in gun-related arrests among minors since 2018 — a trend they attribute to the controversial "Raise the Age" law. Get it on.

In this episode, Adam kicks off the show with a surprisingly deep dive into the symbolism and social dynamics of sandwich-making, unpacking how something so simple says a lot about parenting, care, and culture. He then calls out Dr. Drew's notoriously bad bedside manners and rants about people who constantly unload their health issues on him. Later, Adam takes aim at a bizarre Jardiance commercial, tearing into its absurd list of side effects.

In the news, Adam reacts to President Biden's first comments after a recent cancer diagnosis and his attempt at humor regarding his mental competency. He questions whether Democrats prioritize gun control over illegal immigration, shares his thoughts on the recent Boulder, Colorado terror attack, and breaks down how mass immigration can influence culture.

Finally, Mission Impossible stuntman-turned-actor Stephen Oyoung joins Adam in the studio to talk about his journey into Hollywood, working alongside Tom Cruise, and the crazy world of action filmmaking. They also discuss Asian representation in media, Stephen's SoCal upbringing, his love of martial arts, and how Loveline helped shape his early years. Get it on.
