Adam and Drew open the show discussing their mutual affinity for the use of buck slips before getting into a discussion about the progression in air travel distances and how as a result we now have smaller planes going much further distances than they once did. This leads to a conversation about the recent tragedy on a Southwest flight where an engine blew and killed a passenger. They then turn to the phones and speak to a caller who has questions about the idea of fasting and whether it’s safe and effective as well as another caller concerned for his pregnant wife.

Kennedy—MTV VJ-turned-Fox News host—joins Adam for a spirited conversation about Freedom Fest, libertarian ideals, and the bizarre cultural shift toward embracing government overreach. They swap stories about their early radio days, libertarian values, and how common-sense views have suddenly become controversial. Kennedy also reflects on the loss of personal responsibility in modern America and shares her take on where the country is headed if that trend continues.

Later, actress Teri Polo joins to talk about her latest film, “Relative Control”. and why she’s happier outside the Hollywood bubble. She shares the story of meeting her Marine partner on a dating app and flying to South Korea for their first date. Teri opens up about her shift away from Hollywood culture, her love for men with discipline and real-world skills, and why the fantasy of the industry no longer holds the same appeal.

Comedian and former schoolteacher Joe Dombrowski joins Adam for a lively conversation filled with personal stories, education insights, and a crash course in gay hygiene essentials. Joe shares how he transitioned from wrangling kindergartners to performing on major stages like Seattle's Moore Theatre, revealing how his “teacher comedian” persona first took off online. They reflect on the wild state of public schools, and the uniquely relatable humor that emerged from it. Joe gives Adam a brutally honest—and hilarious—look into the world of poppers, butt-cleaning protocols, and the realities of keeping things fresh in gay culture. They also bond over blue-collar upbringings, absurd parental advice, and the strange ways public education and comedy intersect.

Later in the show, political commentator and author Steve Hilton joins Adam to dissect California’s relentless political dysfunction and cultural unraveling. They discuss themes from Hilton’s new book CALIFAILURE, exploring how progressive policies and bureaucratic bloat have contributed to the state’s decline. The conversation spans everything from housing crises and public safety to media narratives and economic flight. Adam and Steve share a candid, solutions-focused conversation about restoring accountability in government and why California—once a model of prosperity—is now in desperate need of reform.

In the news; John Oliver, who’s being sued by a health insurance executive claiming that a Medicaid monologue on HBO’s Last Week Tonight destroyed his reputation. Adam reflects on the passing of actor Val Kilmer at age 65, and praises his iconic performance of Jim Morrison in the 1991 film The Doors. And finally,  Kanye West’s gutted Malibu mansion, once a minimalist masterpiece turned concrete shell, is finally changing hands in an all-cash deal.

Comedian Sam Tripoli returns to the show to discuss media manipulation, deep-state narratives, and personal misadventures. Sam breaks down how the Tesla protests are proof of media programming, as they mostly consist of older progressives who are still glued to CNN and MSNBC, blindly following narratives pushed by corporate media​. They also discuss defensive driving, with Adam ranting about how slow, overly cautious drivers cause more traffic than speeders and how race car training has made him completely comfortable weaving through lanes at high speeds​. Adam reveals that his middle name is “Lakers”, leading to a discussion on parents' questionable naming decisions​. The crew also touches on pop star Chappell Roan and her recent “Call Her Daddy” podcast appearance. In the news, a New Jersey police chief is facing shocking allegations, accused of stabbing a subordinate with a hypodermic needle, pooping on the floor, and spiking the office coffee with Adderall and Viagra​. Meanwhile, California’s high-speed rail project faces a $7 billion funding crisis, with lawmakers scrambling to secure the money before the summer of 2026​. And in a viral video, a repo man in Tennessee gets his head run over by a desperate driver trying to escape a tow​.
