Thursday, May 6, 2004 at 4:40 AM I have only listened to the first 12 minutes and its already too much of him. He was harping on the Middle Eastern part so much, and while I am glad Drew finally stood up to him, I wish he had stood his ground. He doesnt want anyone to get his message? Then while speak at all? And then he just told the first caller to shut up after she just started speaking. I bet this show is going to be awful -- I bet he is going to be doing his awful radio voice. Anyone else agree? —Marc |

Thursday, May 6, 2004 at 6:11 AM actually i thought tonight was a fun show. Engineer chris' dad calls in, adam does his many voices (Meho, strip club DJ, morning zoo talk show host) and the callers are all dumb as always, some fun rants about junior college. all in all a fun episode. it probably also helped that i was drunk while listening, so everything is even more funny. —Tyler |

Thursday, May 6, 2004 at 4:41 PM Yeah -- it was cool having all the "blah, blah, blah" voices done back to back to back like that. —steve |

Thursday, May 6, 2004 at 11:33 PM I wonder how Adam gauges whether his material is funny or just assumes everything he thinks is funny. Breaking into the Morning Jock or the Stripper DJ the hundreth time with the same vigor is either amazingly inspired or amazingly dilusional. —Adam's Crows |

Thursday, May 6, 2004 at 11:54 PM Yeah, just listening to it now, but Adam comes off as more of an a-hole than normal in the first 12 minutes. Maybe he's having his period...? —B |

Friday, May 7, 2004 at 2:59 AM Probably just that Cinco de Mayo sucks if you live in California. There's a DUI checkpoint every 2 blocks. Probably every block down in LA. Not to mention crowded, semi-riotting Mexicans running around everywhere. It's annoying like Chinese New Year. You hear fireworks out of nowhere and you're like ??? —dr ipod |

Friday, May 7, 2004 at 1:28 PM I was more annoyed that Drew even brought up the Middle Eastern thing. All Adam said was this guy was Middle Eastern, he didn't say anything about all Middle Easterns being bad or whatever. Drew's just getting edgy lately. Then last night they BOTH got their panties in a bunch over the FCC thing with Jay Mohr. —puck71 |

Friday, May 7, 2004 at 4:13 PM I always find it a bit uncomfortable when Adam and Drew argue on the show. It kind of makes me want to skip forward to a later part in the hour (I listen to recorded ones). I haven't yet figured out if Adam is a colossal prick or a comedic genius. Perhaps both. —paul1732 |

Friday, May 7, 2004 at 7:37 PM I think Adam is usually right when he calls Drew on being two-faced. It seems to center around political correctness too. Adam was right when he said Drew would flip if Paulina brought home "Lucious"; of course Drew vehemently denied it but we all know the truth. This is part of the reason why I believe that the Amazon review recounting a session with Drew is not just the blathering of an addict in his disease (although some of it certainly is). "Smugly preening" can be a fitting description for Drew sometimes. —Mahalo |

Edited Friday, May 7, 2004 at 8:09 PM "Smugly preening" seems like something you need to see with your eyes to see it in Drew. Listening, I do not detect that level of arrogance. Drew is extremely humble for a man in his position. I have not met him in person and appearances are misleading when people are on stage whether that is radio, television, posing for a camera at some public event, etc. Because there isn't enough evidence to even suspect this is true I am inclined to take this as the inferiority complex of someone back on their heals. That we know is true of the author. He would never have met Drew in that context, otherwise. —Adam's Crows |

Sunday, May 9, 2004 at 5:43 AM Maybe.. two-faced is kind of a demeaning term, and Adam uses it (or similar phrase) in a demeaning way.. and of course, sometimes Drew maybe does overreact. But I don't think it's that extreme on his part. Drew seems more likely to butt in like this when he agrees with Adam overall, but sees a potential problem with the way the message is delivered. Adam goes out and says he doesn't care, he's just going to say it and that's that. Someone who is extremely "politically correct" goes to the opposite extreme and actually withholds/disguises an opinion for fear of offending someone (this is probably what most people would look down upon). I wouldn't classify Drew in the latter category, since we've certainly heard strong and unpopular opinions out of him. He just seems more likely than Adam to be almost overly careful in how he phrases them in order for them to have the maximal effect. It's a *very* major style difference between the two--it seems to me that almost all of the on air tension between them seems to be over this kind of thing. —atramors |
