It's been a good while since Adam has done a good ole series that we call 'lightning round' and I think that it is about time for another one. What do you think? BTW, I'm curious in when was the first episode where Adam introduced lightning round.

Yeah, people have been suggesting that he bring this back for a while now, but he doesn't seem very interested in it. I think he should do at least one more, at LEAST, before he leaves the show. It'd be a travesty if he didn't return to it at least one last time.

Traffic and weather have sadly replaced lightning round. Traffic and weather are great, but sometimes I need to know what time it is or if Drew is "hot hot hot."

He's not the only one.

I think Engineer Mike was around for the Lightning round or it could've been when the baton was handed to Anderson. Either way, we would be without some great drops without the lightning round. "Got a little yeasty on the peck-a-roo" came from it as well as the name Ace Rockolla.

I never listened when the lightning round was around. Anyone got an example of a show that had it that I can download from the hub.

The episode with Darryl Hammond (From 2000) has a great Lightning Round, where Adam (Ace) keeps inviting "guests" into the studio (Jesse Jackson, Bill Clinton, Ted Koppel, etc.)

The lightning round was the only thing that ever got me to turn Loveline off early.

Boring bit, indeed.

But if a line appears in the dot, he should consult his doctor?

The magic of editing.

Then you should definitely see a doctor if you're pregnant!

Yeah, I remember that. At one point, "Ace" even said "Adam Carolla just walked into the studio."

The episode with Jimmy Kimmel in 2001 is funny because Anderson plays the lightning drop twice before Adam really gets a clue. Then Adam asks him, "What do you want, Anderson? A lightning round? You know I can't do them if guests are on." It's kind of funny because Adam silences Anderson.

The lightning round with Darryl Hammond was hilarious now that you mention it. Does anyone have (or can anyone make) a clip of that lightning round?

I have a clip of that lightning round. It's floating around out there on Kazaa or whatever you kids are using these days. I think it's in my hub share folder too.
