Is Adam coming back?

Hey all

I was a big Loveline fan and followed Adam to his morning show. Does anyone know what's going on with him? He's been sick and missed a few shows and Danny has taken over. I don't mind him usually but without Adam he's terrible. I messaged Danny on myspace and almost immediately got an a-hole response. I don't know what's crawled up his a$$. He even messaged me DURING the show. Is he taking over for good? Is Adam resigned and coming back?

Kurt

Here's the message I got from Danny. I took a screen shot of it...

That's a diplomatic message you sent to Danny :-/

It's funny that he actually responded considering (a-holish as it may have been, he didn't have to respond at all).

As far as I know, none of us know any more than you do at this point beyond idle speculation.

My guess (not worth the electrons it's printed with) is that Adam is just negotiating, and that he will be back on his show in 2008.

Even if not, I'd be shocked if he actually came back to Loveline. It seems much more likely that he'd go to satellite or get his own show on another terrestrial network (though I don't think anyone would be more pleased than I to discover that he was coming back home to Loveline).

It'd be like in Star Trek 4 when they kidnapped those whales to save the future Earth from being destroyed by that alien ship! The Loveline Companion is like the future Earth that can only be saved by Adam and Dr. Drew communicating with each other on Loveline, and Stryker is like the alien probe that is draining the power from everyone's radio from 10-midnight Pacific Standard Time! So Dr. Drew has to kidnap Adam and bring him back to the USS Loveline before everything is destroyed!

Nice job kurt2007. I bet we could get the answer form dbo's mouth--we just need to bait him the right way. Maybe we could check with Bryan via myspace or something too.

Well, it surely has nothing at all to do with the wording of the message you sent him in the first place.

You do have a point about goading Bonaduce - an appropriately worded a-holish "you suck, Carolla rules" message would probably get him to divulge whatever he knows.

Now we just need a team of psychologists to construct the perfect letter.

Though it does suggest adam's gone from terrestial for now, I know he follows the big bucks, suggesting he goes to satellite, my question is where does that lead us.

Will the majority of us buy satelite just to hear Adam?
I know I may but still... it does present itself as a intriguing scenario.

I'm sure it won't happen, but a Drew-Adam show on satellite would be so so cool. I'd definitely pay for that.

I would (especially considering that my income is about to get bumped up enough that the subscription wouldn't be an issue).

I'm sure it won't happen, but a Drew-Adam show on satellite would be so so cool. I'd definitely pay for that.

Much as I'd love to see them back together, I really think they're better for terrestrial. How many sploozer teenyboppers are going to have a satellite subscription? Minus them, you lose the callers, and that's at least the major jumping off point for the show.

true true, tards like me can't afford a Satelite radio subscription with our minimum wage jobs at abercrombie or pacsun.

Actually, living at home, I easily could, but it'd still be a significant chunk of my paycheck.

Isn't it just like ten bucks a month?

I don't think it's so much that it's prohibitively expensive as that it's an extra little barrier to entry that'll keep the callers out. You have to be motivated - at least a little - to get a Sirius / XM receiver and subscription.

On the other hand, just about everyone has access to an AM/FM radio, and all you have to be is bored to flip through the stations and happen upon a cool late-night talk show.

For me it isn't even about that--it's more like another bill every month, another piece of hardware to buy, another drain on my very limited time, another company/customer relationship to manage. I dog-sat for a friend who hand Sirius in his car this summer and it's far superior to anything on the FM dial other than NPR, but I'm not going to drop the cash so I can get Stern and Ron & Fez and music. I can cobble together a great audio diet with free podcasts or even better I could put a minuscule effort in and DL Sirius content. If Adam and Drew were to get together again I'd be in in a heartbeat--they could burn through 4 shows a week on Saturday or something and they could crib callers from the mother ship Loveline where they just call people back who didn't make it on the show.

If the Sirius-XM merger ever goes through satellite radio can really get moving. I have Sirius and will never go back to commercial filled terrestrial radio. My only gripe is the sound quality on some channels should be better. But over time I see it improving.

Didn't Howard Stern offer a time slot to Adam? I think Stern has three channels on Sirius to fill, so maybe it might work out. I already have XM in both my cars but I would get a portable Sirius unit if Adam was on it.

On my station we're not supposed to make fun of anyone or say anything that could be considered negative against someone who's in the public eye, but I still do. The range is only 5 miles, and on our station website we have a complaint form tht says "if you're whining about something please make sure to give us your email address so we can respond!" In the new year i'm thinking about making fun of stuff on campus, like this big digital clock we have named after the Arther Andersen company that doesn't work all the time. It really bothers me that the college would take a big donation to memorialize a company that made so many people lose their jobs.

I also agree with Ano. After I spent a few weeks listening to about a years worth of loveline I found myself using those terms without thinking. I now find that using those terms actually get people to pay more attention to what your saying than when you curse. That and I no longer have to worry about slipping up in court anymore.

Yes, Mayo is right. Public figures, as in public officials, you can pretty much say anything you want to about, even if it's a lie.

Incidentially, that's one of the reasons you can video tape a cop anytime you want, as long as you don't put yourself, or others in danger by doing it. Those videos of cops who say, "I didn't give you permission to tape me, I'm going to arrest you!" are very funny.
