The
Loveline
Companion

Sorry for the delay in posting this. It smelled bogus to me, and it took several days to verify that the poster was, in fact, Lynette. She had never posted in the new forum before, and we had no way of sending her the login & password that the new forum requires. Last Wednesday, Lynette created a new account and posted the above message from there.

But now, we're certain the message is from Lynette, so it has been attributed to her and I've sent her the info for her V.I.P. account. Again, sorry for the delay -- and my apologies to Lynette for the hoops I made her jump through to verify her identity.

—The Mastermind

Holy hell.

—nvgoddess

Ditto.

—steve

...her ass was the size of a ... Mason jar... FAKE!!

—left arm to the vending machine

This is surreal. Could this be the source of Adam's "they respect you on tv, screw radio" ? I still think they would pay Adam the same amount as Drew. There is a definite boguocity about this.

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

They offered Drew his same salary for the next 3 years and they offered me less than half of Drew's salary.

That's F-ed up. If that's true then Westwood One doesn't want Adam back.

i only wish Drew and Westwood One had half as much loyalty as you guys.

What's that about? Does Adam expect Drew to walk if Adam doesn't get more money? Is that fair?

—guydudebro

It saddens me that the radio show that I love so much may lose its best host. However, Adam has to maintain his dignity and if that involves giving Westwood one the middle finger and saying "kiss my ass tards" I'll support him on that one.

Loveline will end without Adam.

—JB82

Bogus? Nah. The Mastermind has spoken.

—nvgoddess

Shut up.....Shut up.....*crawls in fetal position*

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

At least it's not because he's tired of the show. He deserves his share of money and if it's not met I understand his leaving. Pay up Westwood One!

—sillygilly25

Bad times :(

I don't know what to say. Is Westwood scared Adam's gonna drop trou in front of the FCC? I'm one of Drews biggest fanboys, but even I wouldn't listen if the Aceman's out of the picture.

p.s. thanks to Mastermind and Lynette for the hastle - it'd suck to have LL fans nationwide fall on their swords for a hoax ;-)

—Trig

I think the boguosity feeling comes from the bizarre, out-of-character shot at Drew. a) It's not a fair comment as someone else has stated, and b) They still sound like they get along great; yeah we only hear the on-air stuff but it's hard to believe their rapport would stay exactly the same under the circumstances.

But yes, if it is true, you suck, Westwood One.

—LloydLungs

Westwood None strikes again! Ante up you bastards! The chemistry between Drew and Adam is part of what makes Loveline so great - how can you pay Drew more? He's just a love doctor!

—Shocking!

"Yeah, The Love Doc."

—matt602phx

I am insanely paranoid, so I still have doubts that this post is real, but if these are truly the words of Adam then he is obviously reaching out to this community of his fans - and it is up to us to make it clear to Westwood One that their show will fail without Adam. It needs to be made clear to them that he is an asset worth paying for, and that they gain nothing by squeezing him out. It seems we have no choice but to contact those in charge at Westwood One, in mass, to make it painstakingly clear to them how many people love Adam and how devastating it would be to deprive the show of his wit, comedy, and insight. Loveline loses it's soul without the connection that Adam and Drew have and the radio magic they create together every night. This is the worst possible way that someone can leave a show, and it would suck if we let it happen. Everyone here should type up a letter, or at least write an email expressing their concern that Adam is getting squeezed out of the show unjustly - think of it as a 'thank you' to Adam for his years of honest, interesting, and amusing radio.

—Kevin U.

Something about this makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. One, I could have sworn Adam's contract expired this month, not in October. Perhaps this is just a miscalculation on my part though. Even if it is, why is the contract an issue NOW and not in October? Wouldn't a new contract have been offered up before that date?

And why in the hell would Westwood One even consider offering Adam LESS THAN HALF of what Drew makes? Really? This could be Westwood One wanting to get rid of him, but they could simply not offer him a new contract instead.

Plus, this sounds nothing like Adam--at all. (What would he be doing on TLC anyway?)

Something is rotten here.

—clodhopper

Adam's out- loveline might as well retire...

But I'd follow him into the pits of hell so it doesn't really matter to me.

—Mr. Mason Jar

I'm with hopper. Adam would certainly not thank his fans in an email to the LLC, especially in such a graceful manner as read above. What have they been paying him since October (maybe some nuts?), which is when his contract supposedly ended? Hmm...

—PureChaos414

Well, they could still pay him even if he wasn't under contract. Think of your cell phone. I had to sign up for a two year agreement, but I don't have to resign the agreement in two years to keep the service. I could simply leave whenever I wanted to though.

And it seems to me that Adam is one to outright say "I'm leaving on such and such a date" and be blunt with it. Perhaps there was still some negotiation going on and therefore he didn't want to talk. It's also possible since this post, Westwood One has changed their offer and the situation could be different.

—clodhopper

Thanks for the info. Lynette. Good news or bad, we all appreciate taking the time to clue us all in a little, and Mastermind, and Anderson, and Silent Virgin, the reason we have a place to meet.

oh, yeah, unless this IS bogus then fuck everybody :)

—Logo Lou

As for the money issue, I guess you could make the argument -- though it is a preposterous one -- that Adam has cost Loveline some affiliates in recent years (such as Hawaii) and therefore the reduced salary. Obviously, the main reason the show has as many affiliates as it does is Adam, but I'm just trying to figure out the tard reasoning Westwood None might be using.

But yeah, this still doesn't sound like Ace man at all (again, especially the Drew part).

—LloydLungs

Lowballing isn't unheard of, but it's ridiculous. If they wanted him gone for pissing off affiliates, they could have dumped him in October and suffered no consequences. They'd have no reason to wait five months, THEN lowball him in an effort to get him to quit. Why risk losing more affiliates in that time when you don't have to?

Something very important here is missing.

—clodhopper

Maybe they didn't want the stigma of outright firing Adam Carolla, hence the lowball strategy. I agree though, the whole October timeframe thing really doesn't make sense. Maybe Adam's working off a shorter deal until he launches the CC show and sees how that goes?

Yep, something missing. Doesn't sound right.

—LloydLungs

I doubt he signed a separate deal but he's likely working on a per show basis with no obligation to continue.

—clodhopper

It's simple. Adam finally pissed off the management.

His rants have landed them in hot water, got them kicked off stations, and I can just imagine how receptive he is to criticism...

They probably don't care if they're killing the golden goose. Adam helped the show grow up, but now that it's big, I bet somebody has a hungry nephew. You know, the guy who can 'do the same basic job,' but is so much easier to handle.

—Skunk

When you piss someone off and you can fire them (because they don't have a contract) you do it right away, not months later.

This isn't to say Adam HASN'T pissed off managment; I'd be shocked if he never has. I also wouldn't deny that management might want him out. But if you're able to get rid of a unruly employee, you do it when you get the opportunity.

—clodhopper

Or when you can't stand the dog your wife adores, you stop feeding it and leave the gate open and cross your fingers...

Dunno, that's just the image I had reading Adam's message. :(

—Skunk

Personally, i think the listeners and callers, will force KROQ to shape the F up, and find a way to keep Adam.
If Adam leaves, i will see it entirely as KROQ's fault. I will be proud of Adam for telling them to go screw themselves sideways, AND i will call in every single night and demand that they get Adam back.

—AbsolutCarib

HOW DARE THEY! We need Adam! PUSSIES!

—Jon_Favreau

Umm.. Don't mean to troll here, but AMRAC??! GoF!?? Mr. X!?? It's not all that bad, guys.. If anything it'll be more about the love and less of the selflove from Adam's "rants".

—Dancerjul1

Just what I want, more belligerent callers with personality disorders every night to frustrate even the most dedicated and compassionate of trained professionals.

Yeah, that'll be a huge hit.

—clodhopper

yeah, without adam's rants, insight, and analogies all it would be is the same 5 answers drew gives to every caller.

taking adam out of the equation is gonna end up cutting alot more affiliates. stations that wouldnt have had the show if not for adam anyway. say hello to community radio, drew.

—Everyone Has Warts

I can't beleive this!!!!! This is totally f'd. And so are we if we don't get off our asses!! Come on everyone your keyboard is not a chair. True or not it wouldn't hurt us to flood 'the man' with support for our beloved Aceman.

(a single tear hits keyboard)

—Southpaw

"i only wish Drew and Westwood One had half as much loyalty as you guys"

If you think that Adam would call Drew out in an internet forum and then continue be chummy with him on the air... then you're all seriously high. I think it is very clear from listening to him for several years that he is anything but disgenuine. He says what he feels and doesn't put on some fake ass routine.

The only way I would believe this message is if it was posted after an on-air announcement in an effort to better explain the situation and to thank his fans for our loyalty. Adam would NEVER be posting such crap in a premature manner and bringing Drew into the fray.

PLEASE!!!!!

—Hobo84

Instead of talking lets do something.....I beilieve we have enough power to sway westwood ones descion, some one come up with a plan of action and the rest of us will fall in line.

—Mouraless

Think about this too: Adam gets pissed off at management because of the insulting contract offer, he let's them know he's not happy, managment clearly doesn't care (as evident by the low offer), and yet through all of this, management is going to let Adam on several occasions promote his new TV show??? HELL NO! You saw what happens when a radio guy who doesn't get along with management starts promoting his next gig (STERN).

—Hobo84

I don't think this is fake. The Mastermind has confirmed that the post DID originate from Lynette. Probably traced her IP and asked her a few questions or something like that. OR, maybe somebody from Adam's neighborhood with Internet access found this forum and thought posting something like that would be humorous? Hmm...?

mahoney, why don't you and I meet up on Adam's show tonight and get this story straight?

—j4k3

So we're all really concerned. We need to get working... (Put a hand in.) Who can we call? Who can we email? Our opinions will matter little tiny bits...

-The Mastermind

didn't lynette post back in october?? wouldn't that have been in this same forum, with the same password everything? here is a link to the thread she previously posted in. did anyone see this message she posted before it was taken off the forum? just seems strange is all...

—no! cannot have!

Good point... I do remember that.

—Hobo84

Jeeze, no wonder he’s upset, any rational person would be upset too. I hope this is just some sort of retarded negotiating tactic on the management’s part, but if so it is ridiculous and the wrong way to go about it.

I’m really astounded and shocked that they would treat Adam that way. I really think he is the heart and soul of Loveline, and the reason the show retains an audience even after they have been educated by the show. Everyone on this forum already knows the answers to the calls, it’s Adam that is the interesting part of the show. I wish those of us here on this forum had any numbers, unfortunately, it seems (to me anyway) to be a small group of dedicated people, and not at all the number that would be required to have a successful letter writing campaign. Even if they let Adam say something about it on air, which they wouldn’t, most of the slacker audience probably wouldn’t lift a finger anyway.

I am worried that Adam may be under a misconception about how many people actually use this forum. If he was hoping for an en mass mailing, or something grand from the LLC, then he will be severely disappointed, I think.

It’s sad, but I totally understand his position, and agree with it. I really hope they step up to the plate and offer him MORE than Drew, because I am not going to listen to the show anymore if Adam isn’t on it, period. I’m probably in the minority here though, I would wager that many here will continue to listen.

Also, I can see why Adam may be less than thrilled with Drew. What a despicable thing for Drew to do, really. I even understand Drew’s point of view, he has his own well being to consider, and may not have anything else to turn to like Adam can, but still, I find that despicable. The reason it is despicable, is because if they had stuck together they could have both ended up making more money, but Drew didn’t stick together, and this is the result. Think about the cast of “Friends” and what they accomplished by sticking together.

It doesn’t matter if the post sounds like Adam, my bet would be that is just Lynnette passing on a message from Adam, and using her own paraphrasing. Nothing wrong with that, and it doesn’t mean it’s fake. The Mastermind has confirmed it, and I am content that it is real.

My guess is that Adam has just pissed off the management too much, and when that type of dispute is involved, management will cut off their own feet, just for a payback.

Anyway, I wish Adam the best of luck, and promise to subscribe to cable to watch his show if worse comes to worse.

I will also go ahead and send off a letter and an email, but letters are better for these types of things. Management looks at someone who was willing to actually sit down and put pen to paper, they factor that in to the loyalty of the audience, and they usually multiply the letter by some number and say, “if one person writes, then that means X number of people also feel the same way”.

Would be helpful if someone with some spare time could come up with the correct addresses, I should be able to find them, but not until Sun, Mon, or Tue, as those are my days off, and the only free time I have.

For the more slackerly people here, someone may also want to paste a form letter for you to use.

—Masteel

Mastermind could you post up how you verified Lynettes credibilty. I don't know, I have to agree, Adam would no post anything about Drew. That would be very unprofessional of Adam to do so.

—OneManArmy

Once again, no tears, or speculations or hard feelings are necessary. If Adam leaves, there will be such a storm of call-in support and mail, until he is brought back, that any "details" that we are hearing now, dont mean crap!

THERE WILL BE REVOLUTION!!!

—AbsolutCarib

LIAR! LIAR WHORE AND YOU KNOW IT!

—kastofsna

Theo, get on the air and ask Adam about this in the form of a SONG!

—j4k3

And again, Adam DID NOT POST THAT! As mentioned already by Masteel, Lynette was *probably* just paraphrasing Adam! So enough with the Adam-wouldn't-say-that-about-Drew crap!

Thank you.

—j4k3

If there was ever a proper time to use:

CALLING ALL TARDS!!!

—Hobo84

ADAM SHOULD RANT ABOUT THIS ON AIR

—maxPOWER

My guess is if you tried to get in your air, you'd get the proverbial door slammed on your face.

And I'm also curious how Mastermind confirmed this. Unless he spoke to her directly, I'm weary. Simply tracing an IP really isn't sufficent.

I'm not saying I don't believe any of this as being possible, but a lot simply doesn't make sense. You don't stick around somewhere if they insulted you and won't pay you the same amount of money and they don't keep you around paying that higher amount. (Remember, if Adam isn't under contract, they can simply drop his pay with impunity and he is powerless except in that he can walk.)

—clodhopper

I'm with clodhopper. Something's missing here.

By the way, Adam consistently FORGETS about TLC's existence. We've heard this on the air before. Not a big deal, since it's a fansite, and it doesn't come up on the show all that often (and lets not forget the red-wine/shaken-etch-a-sketch effects). Yet he seems to be addressing us through Lynette. I find that particularly odd.

—Dark Laith

I do not and refuse to believe this.

—Wugie

Look, it doesnt matter, any of this, wether or not the lame ass "Adam Message" is real. It doesnt matter what we "think" Adam would or wouldnt do in a situation.

The fact is that there is obviously some energy floating around about Adam leaving, real, or just percieved in our little squirrel brains. Everyone in this forum is all riled up about it, one way or another.

That is a sign.

Lets break it down people, lets start the revolution now BEFORE the problem really does emerge. Lets play some offense people. Lets start calling in, and mentioning it every single time. Lets get Adams attention on the air. Lets let him know, who his real fans are and what they stand for. Lets remind him that we got his back. Lets pump him up, on the air. Lets BRING THE ISSUE TO THE THEM.

Instead of debating for days on end about the authenticity about IP addresses and other such hooplah.

—AbsolutCarib

Oh and one more thing. A WHILE back i had read in a few threads, here and there, something about Adam, slipping lately. Whoever or should i say WHOMever, had said that, I imagine has most certianly been getting all hopped up on goofballs AND OR whippets and wood glue.

One, shining example of how Adam is very much still enthusiastic each night, is during the betting on abuse that they did during the HOT HOT HEAT episode recently. Not only that, ive noticed Adams rants and jokes and inqueries have ALL been very upbeat and energetic these days.

I hope to F that Adam NEVER READS THIS FORUM. We people in here, including myself, analyze and critique everything to a point that teeters on the edge of obsessive dementia, good times.

WE (I speak for all of us) are the stalker fans, and he is the talent. Hopefully worlds will never collide.

—AbsolutCarib

adam's never even googled his own name, and he constantly tells drew to stop caring about what people say about his book on amazon. he'd be shocked and appalled at the sploozers that infest places like this. a while back he mentioned how uncomfortable it is to hear callers bring up ideas of his he's long forgotten. imagine if he stumbled upon this forum, with all the "best usernames not taken" threads and "favorite adam's life story" threads. thank god he doesn't/can't read.

—kastofsna

What's the address of Westwood One that we can email/send letters to, if need be?

—Folgers

Seems odd. Especially considering the stern vacuum factor and they are almost certainly going after Ace for that.

—Vash

damnit i cannot find this darn address of westwood. still trying tho

—AbsolutCarib

Mastermind, you are a dumbass, and you've been had. This is as bad as the BOGUS "warnings" of an impending terrorist attack that are always blamed on this mythical Al Qaida, that the CIA claims they just "lost control of sometime in the late 80s" (yea right) and people buy into it.

Lynette didn't write that shit. She doesn't have half a reason to care any more than Adam does, and he doesn't give a shit OR a fuck OR a jack about "informing us." Puleeeeeez.

Whoever has the 'lynette' username is laughing their ass off, just like they're laughing at us every time we buy into supposed "new threats" from the mythical "Al Qaida." SO, as part of the newly created "Department of Loveline Security," I'm inventing the "Adam is about to leave" color coded chart:

GREEN means "LOW RISK OF ADAM LEAVING"
BLUE means "GUARDED" --GENERAL RISK OF ADAM LEAVING
YELLOW means "ELEVATED" --SIGNIFICANT RISK OF ADAM LEAVING
ORANGE means "HIGH" --HIGH RISK OF ADAM LEAVING
RED means "SEVERE" --SEVERE RISK OF ADAM LEAVING

Just like the shitty "warnings" released from the federal government that are designed to fuck with and control public opinion, this current BULLSHIT warning of Adam leaving gives me at the "Department of Loveline Security" reason to raise the "ADAM WARNING" to ORANGE. Since the risk of Adam leaving will never fully go away, I never intend to lower the threat level to blue or green just like the liars that run the federal government never intend to.

—repeal68gca

I believe this is Westwood 2's address/ phone:

8966 Washington Blvd
Culver City, CA 90232

(310) 840-4000

What is the name of the KROQ building?

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

• Westwood One address

—digger

Digger they are in Culver City not New York.

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

Hashmeer, they have a broadcast facility in Culver City, but their main offices could very well be in New York.

—Kevin U.

Cant be true, remember how adam wanted to leave westwood one or he would walk out, much like the other times he's threated to walk out? They've always fixed the problem he wanted, I'm sure they would continue his pay, and shit the guy is literally a millionare what does he care if he makes like 5 grand less a year taxes would eat it up anyway.

—Darkfloyd

We should email both then. However, I think the Culver City one would be more directly involved.

Darkfloyd, 5 grand less a year taxes try $100,000 (at least). Cutting Adam's pay in half is not about the money, it's about respect. They have no interest in keeping him and that is a slap in the face for someone who has worked there for 10 years.

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

If this post is real, it's consistent with the one from a couple of weeks ago where Anderson was looking for help in finding dates and times for Adam's rants. Which also assumes THAT ONE was real, and it it was, then Anderson knew the writing was on the wall, and he's preparing a tribute or send-off.

As for Drew breaking ranks, I can believe that for two reasons. He has triplets to support, has been on the show twice as long as Adam, so it's his franchise first. Also, there might be something to the idea that if Adam continues to rant, insult Hawaiians, insult African Americans (the Rosa Parks thing), that his time is finally over from the station management's perspective. Tough post-Janet Jackson times we're living in, damn it, and the world isn't too tolerant of his act right at the moment. So if the rants and insults are costing them markets (affiliates), then Drew has to protect his turf.

Lynette writes like a bit of a gooftard, but if she's in a rush and just kind of relaying the message for Adam, than that could explain it. Also, maybe it's HER that will "see us on TLC". I think she's more down with TLC and the internet in general than is Ace Rockola. Adam's good to go and find porn, but not much else. Why does Adam not mention "seeing us" on Jimmy Kimmel? That's still his gig until when and if the Comedy Central thing takes hold.

Na Na Hey.

—Ed Thunderbear

I was being sarcastic but still you get my point. If they've realized he's important in the past what's stopping them now? The contract stuff? I doubt it.

—Darkfloyd

I am not sure how US radio really functions, but standard practice has been in Canada that if someone is not under contract, you would not allow them on the air. Hell, if they are near the end of a contract and expected to leave, they are yanked from the air.

If you were WW1 management, would you let a disgruntled Adam anywhere near a live mike?

—Laxdude

They could have fired Adam when he pissed of the LAPD vice squad and they filed a lawsuit. Or when he pissed of Hawaiians. Or when he makes jokes about black people and Jews. Or the "Gay Morning Zoo" skit. Or everytime in the past decade he has put down Westwood One. Plenty of opportunities there to fire him since radio personalities have been fired for less.

—obrez

It does not make any sense. Why would he stay on if he is mad at these guys? It does not sound like the Adam we know.

Whatever.

As far as the Drew situation, Adam does not hold back when ranting about Drew's wife even though Drew has said it hurts her feelings. So he may not have that much loyalty to him - Drew does not talk that way about Lynette and even Adam does not denigrate his own wife the way he would Drew's wife. Or it is just teasing and Adam's radio schtick and it bothers no one except for a stupid listener like me.

We will know for sure shortly. Drew is not the same when Adam is not around so the show would definitely change. I can't say for the better or worse - that would remain to be seen also because I think Drew is calmer and more relaxed when Adam runs the show.

I don't think these guys have the time or energy to read this forum anyway.

Victoria..

—victoria and B

"It does not make any sense. Why would he stay on if he is mad at these guys? It does not sound like the Adam we know."

To be honest I think Adam appreciates his much fans more than he lets off on air, and that these comments are fitting of his character. I really can't blame Drew for not wanting to get involved in this situation, for it would invalidate his commitment to his fans. It's too bad that Adam viewed Drew's actions as basically being a pussy and not standing up for a friend.

Nobody knows his real relationship with Drew and its useless to speculate, so really the only thing we should be discussing is how to make KROQ realize that the integrity of the show lies within both Adam/Drew, equally. Adam holds the fan base, and Drew provides the knowledge. While Drew would move quickly through calls, I honestly think that in the end, less people would be on the other end to recieve the advice. Okay, I'm off to email KROQ.

—LippyTaK

It does not make any sense. Why would he stay on if he is mad at these guys?

Adam's been mentioned as one of the finalists for Stern's morning slot. If Adam *were* to get that well paying gig, doncha think a freshly signed Lovline contract would get in the way? A live morning show *and* a live midnight show would just not be possible. So Adam's, quite possibly, just holding out to see who gets the Stern slot. If someone else (Mancow?) gets it, then Adam will be back signing with Loveline.

—digger

Your theory is pretty good digger, except that it doesn't fit the message "Lynette" left here. It would make no sense for them to lowball Adam if he was up for a better gig. The impression here is that Westwood One doesn't want him back, not that Adam is keeping his options open for his own morning show.

—clodhopper

As I understand it, Adam is in the running for a moning show on KLSX which runs Stern. It will not be a nationally syndicated show. Adam doesn't seem like the kind of guy that would get up at 5:00 in the mornig to talk for four hours though. Maybe he could have a morning show that starts at noon for people who like to sleep in.

Well said...you're right.

—victoria and B

>The impression here is that Westwood One doesn't want him back,

That seems to be the message. Not coming right out and firing him but lowballing him to leave. Weird tactics. Why not just not renew his contract.

Or

It is none of the above -.

—victoria and B

The only thing I want to say is..KROQ aint got anything to do with it!!!!!!! Please, people, stop talking about them. Westwood one wholly owns loveline. KROQ is now simply one affliat and the studio they broadcast from.

—Ovid

So, who should I be emailing right now? I couldn't find a contact address for KROQ, and apparently I should be looking for Westwood 1 anyway. Can someone set the record straight and post a contact that we should all be using?

—LippyTaK

I never thought I'd become such a big "fan" of any show, let alone a talk radio show! Well, it won't be the same, but things change. At least I got a run of about 5 years of fandom under my belt.

—Lou Cypher

um...it's obviously fake. everyone can stfu now. does adam refer to this forum as TLC? that would indicate that not only does he care about it, but he also likes it enough to give it the nickname as its known here. and would westwood one be really happy with adam sharing contract info on an internet forum? and would drew like it? and if drew DID have "half as much loyalty" would they get along so well? and it's not just an "on-air" thing, clearly they do enjoy their friendship, noted by their cell phone calls on the way home, for example. and isn't lynette like a secretary or something? shouldn't she be able to capitalize her own name or the i's for example? and "Drew went ahead and signed his contract and unless they step up in a big way, I'll see you guys on Comedy Central and TLC" is a lot of information for one sentence. this is clearly some hack; this guy would've made his name adam, but no one would've believed him, so he decided to pose as lynette. this is so obviously bogus, it sickens me to see people falling for this nonsense.

—kastofsna

I think "Adam" was refering to the channel TLC. The posts looks like she was taking dictation from Adam or he just typed something up on notepad and told her to post it.

A MESSAGE FROM ADAM!!!! Fastest growing semi-bogus thread in North Americaaaaaa!!!!! Oh Yeah!!!

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

I'm sorry but it just doesn't seem to add up

—Wugie

So change the subject.

How did Lynnette get her star?

—victoria and B

Because Mastermind apparently has a reason to believe it is in fact Lynette. (Although he has not provided what that reason is.)

—Dark Laith

The Mastermind can assign stars to whomever he chooses, and reserves it for 'vip' members such as anderson and lynette. Though everyone calls bogus, I have full confidence that if the mastermind says it's really lynette, it really is her.

a hearty "Good times!" to adam and well wishes on his future endevors if he does in fact leave.

—Tyler

bullshit. i reject all titles in all caps.

—Passionate_Man

That message in quotes has no date to it. It says that their contracts expired in October of 2004. Didn't Kevin U. say they expired at the beginning of this month? And, do you really think Adam would work four months without a contract? It's fake. Furthermore, didn't someone call in a few weeks ago and ask, and Phone Screener Brian (I think) said he was not at liberty to discuss contractual matters? What would make Phone Screener Brian (a Loveline employee) unable to talk about it, but Lynette (who would have zero affiliation with the show if not for her marriage to Adam) free to post on a message board to people she doesn't even know?

—thejoeinme

Wow! I just read the message from Lynette. I cannot believe that the voice I have listened to on the radio since I was in middle school will no longer be there. Adam has been a part of my life since the 7th grade, and he is more family to me than anything else. I'll miss him if he does leave.

*single tear drops onto hot skiddle: "kutztzeeeessss"*

—ankiedada

AND, if we have all learned something from this show, Drew is EXTREMELY loyal to Adam. Remember last year when he was yakking like a madman and Drew called him like three times in one day? And Drew was also constantly on the phone with him when he had his hernia surgery in the summer. Drew cares deeply about Adam, he wouldn't just let him go like that. The message is bullshit.

—thejoeinme

thejoeinme: Lets think about your statement. Brian works for a company, if he does something the company doesn't like they CAN fire him. Lynette does NOT work for the company. She can say whatever she wants about Adam's contract negoiations. What can they do? Fire her? I really hate dumb people.

—Marc

Also, if Adam wants this Comedy Central thing to work or wants a morning show, I think acting "above and beyond" and showing class (working without a contract) couldnt hurt him in the long run. Still hating dumb people...

—Marc

smells bogus, i hope its not true, adam and drew havnt mentioned a single thing about seriously leaving. why would adam send in an email to tell the fans on here that he is leaving when he could say it on the air and let everyone who is listening know.

—Ace's MRAC

First off, the Ace Man can't read...so he probably said "take a memo" to Oswaldo. Also, there's no way in hell he'd be caught dead on the Internet. I think this is a hoax. There is of course more writing on the wall lately than I care to deal with...so I'm going to enjoy this while it lasts. Remember kiddies, nothing good lasts forever.

—benben

If Mastermind gave a VIP account to an imposter then we have bad times ahead.

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

They offered Drew his same salary and offered Adam less than half? So that would mean that Adam is working for half his former salary? No way, he'd be long gone.

—db

Where the heck is Silent Virgin?!?!?!?

—j4k3

I think it's bogus too.

—CynicalAngel

Whether it's bogus or not, it couldn't hurt to show your appreciation of Adam Carolla in a postcard or letter to one of your affiliates or Westwood One. You would be spending less than a dollar.

—sillygilly25

One more thing: Adam attracts a huge chunk of this show's listenership. There's no way they'd offer him less than half of what Drew's getting. And isn't this the same Adam that threatened to walk if they didn't get to change studios, only to have them submit to the demand?

Oh, and memo to Marc: I hate dumb people too.

—thejoeinme

If it's bogus, it'll be revealed in due time. If not, it's clearly designed to elicit a surge of support from his fan base during contract negotiations. Fine by me. We should all do our part.

His being offered less than Drew makes no sense and has to be an exageration. If WW1 didn't want Adam back, they wouldn't offer him a contract. It's not like they'll take him back, but only at a discounted rate. I'm sure they were offered the same money.

As for Adam being mad at Drew, I don't think much ruffles his feathers for very long. Drew probably thought it was a fair offer and Adam said, "I'm worth more." If Adam wins out, he'll make more than Drew because the love doctor took the first offer. Assuming this all works out, Adam can not only berate Drew for being such an unabashed pussy, he can rib him for being paid less too.

My fingers are crossed.

—Darko

Just to defend Dr. Drew...

I bet he just resigned his contract the second they handed it to him without even THINKING they'd screw Adam over, and now that it's signed, what can he do? He's essentially out of the equation. I'm certain that if he knew ahead of time that they'd try to dick Adam around, he would've stood by him.

Still, InCREDibly dicky of Westwood One if this is true.

(And as a side note, I'm sitting here listening to the HotHotHeat ep., and I hear NO animosity towards anyone from the Aceman. Either he's unbelievably professional, or this thread is stuPENdously bogus. Not sure which yet.)

—Santa's Mouth

Either he's unbelievably professional, or this thread is stuPENdously bogus.

It's a lot easier to believe bogus. He's either putting up a tremendous facade in his on-air rapport with Drew (doesn't sound like him) and using an internet message board I don't think he knows exists (also doesn't sound like him) to drum up support... or it's bogus.

Or the wife is speaking for him and inserting some of her own sentiments that Adam does not really share.

—LloydLungs

He talks about this site form time to time, so it wouldn't suprise me if he knows the board exsists. I'm just hoping that it's bogus. Please be bogus.

—Jon_Favreau

*A single tear falls
why?................why?.................
If only i was literally a millionare then i could pay his salary.
why?!

—Dr.Drew_boogie

He could be working without a contract. On Stern, for example, Jackie Martling worked without a contract for several months before he ultimately left. I'm not sure how it works, but they would probably just keep paying him at the same rate as before, but with no contractual obligations on either side.

But I vote bogus. Offering Adam "less than half" of Drews salary just doesn't add up. If Westwood didn't want him, they would let him go. If they did want him, they would offer him at least as much as Drew. Offering a blatantly insulting amount would serve no purpose.

—Trainwreck jm

But, wasn't Adam complaining how his salary was equal to Dr. Drew's after October 2004? I'm a little confused.

DON'T LEAVE US, ADAM!!!!

—C!

Adam, that is sooooo fucked up. Sounds like they are trying to get rid of you or something because they know you would never agree to that. You are the heart of the show and I can't believe Drew would do that to you, must of been the Jew Half LOL. I think "they" probbably got too many complaints about some of Adams comments about religion and race etc. You will be missed on the radio but I look forward to seeing your new show raise the bar on Entertainment as we know it. : )

~mahoney

—mahoney

Jesus F you people are ruining EVERYTHING!!!!

Please everyone just shut the F up and kill this thread already. Adam isn't going to leave.

But if he ever gets wind of this pathetic dsiplay of people just yapping endlessly and speculating on and on about ADAM MIGHT LEAVE, ADAM WILL LEAVE, ADAM I S LEAVING, ADAM WILL NEVER COME BACK!!!!!!!!
Jesus F you mothers of Hell stop creating such bad vibes, you people sound like u want him to leave.

—AbsolutCarib

(random sploozer post)

—clodhopper

Absolutcarb I admire your optomistic attitude but I know for a fact that Adam is leaving through friends of mine in the industry. Adam has mentioned that he is leaving in at least one recent show so just accept it. Even if this thread is bogus it doesn't change the fact that Adam is leaving : ( 100% GUARANTEED. He has had an ass full of loveline and I don't blame him. Wanna bet $$$$$$ ?

—mahoney

From the movie, Adaptation: "Don’t use the word 'industry'..."

—Marc

1. The email is coming from someone who supposedly has been verified as being Lynette
2. Adam is supposed to have that new late night show on Comedy Central that includes a "call-in component" ala Loveline. There has been talk of doing the show live, but he *could* do it from 7:30 pm on the West Coast, making it live on the East Coast and CST.
3. This could be a way for both Adam and WW1 to gracefully exit, shifting the blame on the other party.
4. It seems strange (even with that hack Geraldo apparently leading the pack) for WW1/Infinity/Viacom to lowball Adam while he's in the running to replace Stern.
4.5 Even if Adam was going to KSLX, that's an Infinity property- again, why ax him?

If anything, this looks more like one of the 2 big radio conglomerates screwing up.

no shit sherlock? i thought he was going to do it forever. "friends of mine in the industry" eh? well you know what, I am adam carolla and im staying [/sarcasm] quit being a dumbass no one believes you. thats what my friends in the bullshit industry tell me. shut up.

—Passionate_Man

Drew, we love you. BUT... people don't tune in to The Costello Show. People don't tune in to The Laurel Show. People don't tune in to The Robin Show. They tune in to enjoy the chemistry between both halves of the talent. Aboott & Costello, Laurel & Hardy, Batman & Robin. Adam & Drew.

Don't listen to the geniuses. You know better. We all (most of us) do.

Do the right thing.

—GoingToGoToJailBuddy

LOL, anyone who doesn't believe me put your $$$ where your mouth is.
I will bet you $$$ that he is leaving. How dare you attack me lol
I am one of the few people on this board that has actually met
both Drew and Adam on more then one occasion. And by the way
Retards in Glass Houses shouldn't throw stones.

—mahoney

dumbass, i was agreeing with you, of course it will end. why in the hell would i give you money anyways? look at me!!! i can predict the enevitable!!! I bet you will die. pay up bitch. $$$$

you're not special. just because you met adam and drew doesnt mean you know anything. fucking troll.

—Passionate_Man

Wow you are a passionate man and so tough too. WTF is your problem? Your pissed off because I said I have friends in the Industry? Maybe that's considered a big deal in
the utopia known as (bakersfield) but if you live in Los Angeles it's hard not to have friends in the "Industry". Lighten up no need to be rude.

—mahoney

all of mohoney's posts are either bragging about having tix to a show, or bragging about having "friends" in the "industry," and the rest are telling people to stop taking this board too seriously. you run quite a gamut.

—kastofsna

Good day sir

—Passionate_Man

I wasn't trying to brag. I was only trying
to share info on Adams departure. Don't you
think your being just a little hyper sensitive?

—mahoney

OK, so it seems that quite a few (if not more than half) of the forum posters think that this is bogus/a hoax, but no one can seem to figure out how/why it has happened. Here's a theory:

It would not be an unheard of, or even too terribly "dicky," move for an internet forum operator to decide to test the gullibility of its members.

So isn't it possible that maybe, just maybe, Mastermind is IN ON the hoax? I mean "we" DO kind of DESERVE it, what with all of the recent speculation-threads. Perhaps he's just plain sick of them, or perhaps he thought (and rightfully so) that it would be FUNNY to watch/make the forum collectively panic.

On the off chance that it IS real, though, all I say is this: If they don't open the wallet, RUN, Adam, RUN! No one here could blame you.

—Dusty TheHick

Everyone is over looking a very important FACT here. Adam himself announced last week on the show that he is moving to tv and said "enjoy the radio while you still can" or something similar. Let's settle this once and for all ok ? Everyone should try and call the show tomorrow night (Sunday) and just ask Adam point blank.....yes?

—mahoney

I mean "we" DO kind of DESERVE it, what with all of the recent speculation-threads.

I don't get what the problem is with all the speculation threads. Adam leaving would be the biggest news in Loveline history and pretty much end the show for the majority of listeners. Whether this is a hoax or not, there are other blatant warning signs that this is about to happen. What else are we supposed to talk about? It's a Loveline forum! Forums are there for people to speculate!

Well, anyway, my feeling is tentatively that this is a hoax, though I still think Adam leaves before the end of March. Though I must confess to having no industry connections or connections of any kind, really.

—LloydLungs

If you are going to call, you must have a good question so the screeners will let you through. Don't tell the screener you are asking about Adam's contract either. I have a feeling he will not talk about it. People are wierd about contracts. Adam always says, "can't talk about it until the ink drys" or something to that effect. Even if he does talk about it, this will not end the debate. He won't say the stuff Lynette posted and if he says he's staying, people will think he just can't talk about it.

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

I disagree, Adam is an open book and will pretty much answer any question you throw at him
including how much he makes etc.

—mahoney

He may not want to talk shit about Westwood Dump if he is trying to work out a deal with them. That's all I'm saying.

—Hashmeer Shashmeer

only one way to find out. Someone should do a seperate thread about having everyone on here try and get through Sunday night.

—mahoney

Make up a question for the the screeners (like: "I'd like to know if I have the alcoholic genes..." or something like that), and when you DO get on the air...

Adam: Hey [caller]? You're [age]? What's up?
You: Oh, hey guys... here's my question... oh, hey Adam?
Adam: Yeah...?
You: (Ask about the contract thing.)

There you go. That's my script for tonight's show. Just have to come up with a better question.

Yay to sploozers!

—j4k3

^ dont u think that would piss adam off and drive him even further to leave?

—drewdrop

Yup.

Oh, and...

I don't get what the problem is with all the speculation threads.

The only "problem" would be that any more than one, maybe two, of them is REDUNDANT, and we've had, what, five or six?

—Dusty TheHick

The only "problem" would be that any more than one, maybe two, of them is REDUNDANT, and we've had, what, five or six?

Maybe so, but we've had 600 "OMG what was that bumper music" threads and 500 "OMG OMG does Loveline stream online?" threads, so six threads on the biggest development in Loveline history, and what could effectively be the end of the show, isn't too bad. Especially after this latest weird twist with a possible pseudo-Lynette dropping Adam's bizarre out-of-character rantings on us. It'd be like trying to limit all lockout/season cancellation discussions to one thread on an NHL message board right now.

—LloydLungs

Maybe so, but we've had 600 "OMG what was that bumper music" threads and 500 "OMG OMG does Loveline stream online?"

I agree, and you may have noticed that most of those don't have any (serious)posts with the "Dusty TheHick" trademark.

I also agree that, if real, this IS in fact a huge development. All I meant, Captain Hyper-sensitivity, is that all of the related threads BEFORE this one were pure speculation, and maybe Mastermind decided to teach a group lesson about jumping to conclusions. Couldn't blame him.

—Dusty TheHick

All I meant, Captain Hyper-sensitivity

That should NOT be hyphenated, dammit!!!!!! GET MY NAME RIGHT!!!!

While previous discussion may have been speculation, it was speculation based on sound evidence, particularly Mr. Rockola's blunt statement to the effect that he is leaving the show and can be found on Comedy Central in the future. The answer's always been right there.

—LloydLungs

Wow mahoney

inside sources say that adam is leaving?

Thats wierd because you were saying he had a contract for five years in this thread in november

http://www.dolland.net/loveline/forum/threads/25408.html

Considering this and the "did adam get alot of pussy" and "is michelle hot" type threads not only would i be suprised if you had friends in the industry

I would be suprised if you have friends.

Quite frankly you come off like a love knifer or that sushibar psycho guy talking about Poorman

—Vash

Inside sources Yes but don't take my word for it Adam said it himself in a show last week. I know you guys are bummed but don't take it out on me.
Why are you guys so god damn critical?

—mahoney

...or, best-case scenario, a mere TOOL.

—Dusty TheHick

The only person who has posted who is even remotely plausible for having the best knowledge would be Theo (other than any of the people who are on the show), who said he was told they renewed their contracts.

Now his wife would have knowledge, but this message is pretty suspect as not only is it awkward, she doesn't even say anything herself about it just relays.

Not only that, quotation marks? That in itself seems bogus.

As for the whole "she can talk about what people on the show cant nonsense" well quite frankly you would forget that this is supposedly a message from Adam, a person on the show.

If their contracts are to be undisclosed then they will be just that. People on movie sets who sign nondisclosure stuff cant beat the system by having their wives talk about it

Where is the logic in offering Adam less money? Its not there. Loveline is popular period. You do what you can to keep that money coming in. They give security guards and move them to a new studio when he threated to quit. They want his ass in that chair. And not only that he could possibly leave, so you don't low ball him, thats retarded.

Get past all that he offends people garbage. So does stern. And if the people at his station could pay X amount of dollars to keep him there, you bet their ass they would.

Might he leave? Sure. But not from this. If he leaves it because he is tired of the show, not because they want to pay him less.

—Vash

well your wrong but i'm sure your used of hearing that.
What part of ADAM SAID HE WAS LEAVING don't you understand ?
Listen to last weeks shows and hear it straight from ADAM.

—mahoney

Apparently some people are turning very ugly. I am just going to keep quiet and wait for news from the primary source: Adam himself.

Upon closer inspection, the original post by "lynette" does seem quite unintelligent and even childish. It seems like a post someone from this forum would make (please, don't take any offense).

Anyway, enough speculation from me. I am remaining silent concerning this topic until definitive, unequivocal news comes my way.

—ankiedada

That your inside source bubba?

Shooooooccckkkkkkkiiiiinnnnnngggggg

No, that's not my inside source but what more proof do you need then Adam himself?
Listen to the god damn show already lol

—mahoney

WHAT WOULD HITER DO?!?!

—ZT-In-Exile

Anyone else remember an ep. where Drew and Adam discuss how posting on the internet is pointless because people just sit around and debate whether or not it's really them?

—Mr. Mason Jar

What part of ADAM SAID HE WAS LEAVING don't you understand ?

-mahoney

hmm. and of course adam never says anything he doesn't mean... but wait, adam uses a lot of sarcasm and hyperbole, so can you really believe an offhand comment he made? he's said he was going to hire drifters to kill people, kick his dad in the nuts, take over cuba, and on and on... it was just some offhand comment he made. you act like he made an official announcement. of course he will be leaving, but none of us on this forum know when. it could be in a few weeks, or in a few years. i hope it's the latter, but oh well.

the thing is, adam's like a bird. if you let him go and he flies away, it wasn't meant to be. if he comes back then it was. plain and simple.

—no! cannot have!

I think we have a new Theo on our hands!

—Hobo84

I'd like to make a suggestion; should someone get through to Adam and Drew on the show, they might want to fraise the question in such a way that they didn't force either of them into a corner.

I would suggest something like: Adam, there is a lot of speculation online about whether or not you will continue to be a co-host on Loveline. Can you comment on that?

I'd give him an out like that. Remember we're not lawyers trying to beat him up on the stand.

Then I'd wish him success on all of his future ventures.

Just a thought.

—swifty

Mahoney, im surprised AT you.
I cant believe that you use the comment that Adam made "Ohhh I'll be gone REALLLLLL soon", during a fit of rage brought on a buy a stump of a caller, who Adam FLIPPED out on becuz she was whining, negative and annoying as F. As Adam put it, she sounded like she was interrupted during some romantic dinner when Loveline paged her.

And then some smart ass caller called in to tell Adam that its time to quit the show. Adam, has never been one to be talked to that way, especially by some snot nosed little caller, without Adam retaliating.

Threatening to leave was the most suitable retaliation for that. He was taking out the anger that he had at the first caller for being an absolutely horrible whiny call, and the second caller for trying to get smart with Adam, he was taking it out on us and Drew and the engineers. Obviously he didnt mean it that way he said it, becuz even if he leaves, he will be back anyway. This little TV show is a phase, and it will be good for him.

—AbsolutCarib

I think we have a new Theo on our hands!

—Hobo84

—Passionate_Man

Theo is the minute hand of the clock that will toll the bells of our destruction.

The hour hand is a fucking alcoholic. He probably lost another fucking tooth in a bar fight tonight, and is sleeping it off in a gutter somewhere while the blood is crusting on his cheeks.

Ohh, he'll come home sometime this afternoon talking a good talk, with some story that perfectly removes all blame from him. When he does, Theo will forgive him, because he loves him.

At anyrate, we don't have to worry much about our desctruction until the hour hand gets sober. He can barely hold a job, much less start someone's personal destruction like he used to in the old days. Ohh my, he was so good at it. Together, Theo and the hour hand would destory a few dozen people an hour -- tolling bells all the live-long day. Now? Now, the hour hand isn't even a shadow of his former self. I'm just waiting for the day when he finally gets in to the program, and admits he's powerless over his addiction.

But the hour hand is so God damn slow, it's never going to happen. He acts so important because he's the hour hand. HA! His shorty stubby ass trying to work it's way around the clock -- ain't no power there.

Presumably, he is very busy cleaning diaper-shit, etc. One benefit that the REST of us can hopefully reap from this is the temporary absence of any new self-indulgent Theo threads.

—clodhopper

Thanks -hopper, I thought it was me.

—oh-for

On a final note, why the fuck is ZT in exile?

—Dusty TheHick

He was (mostly) consistently voted as Most Likely to be a Pedophile. So, according to his livejournal, he decided that he would not grace TLC with his presence for a certain amount of time. My guess is the new screenname is to emphasize the fact that he still feels alienated.

*points and laughs at ZT the pedophile*

—Dark Laith

Well, if he wants to feel alienated, that's his right, but I think he's making more of it than it is. I mean, he was voted "MOST likely" out of those of us here "to be a pedophile." NOT "We think he's a pedophile."

—Dusty TheHick

Actually, in order to enforce the two week period that I swore not to post on TLC, I had one of my roommates change my password and hide it on a sheet of paper that he swore not to give back to me until Feburary 23rd. I was content to just read thread until then.

But then this talk about Adam leaving started up, and I had to chime in.

Unfortunately, I also don't have the balls to ask my roommates where he hid the paper before the two weeks are up. So, in the meantime, I'm IN EXILE.

—ZT-In-Exile

It's no big deal if adam leaves. The only host that was ever good on Love Line is it's originator and creator Jin "The Poorman" Trenton. When he left many people stopped listening to Love Line. Very few of you guys on this message board knew what the show was like back in those day. It was the best. Now you all have a chance to hear Poorman again, he just started a new radio show called Love Calls on AM 1540 in Los Angeles or you cna listen on poorman.com . It's on Monday's 11pm to 1am PST, Tuesday-Friday 10pm-Midnight. Love Calls is amazing, Poorman still has his amazing humor. For those who did listen in Poorman's day I'm sure you remeber Unitaj, Sushi Bar, Boinkage, Jobby, Zooveraaax and the rest of his words and the Love Line gingle which went away when he left, he has the Love Calls jingle now. Give it a listen.

—clodhopper

sushi--Please go to the Poorman Companion and hang out there. You will not be making us drink the Koolaid in order to warm up to some dude who might be Drew's 4th best co-host. I'd rather listen to Stryker.

—LloydLungs

I'd rather listen to Stryker.

—bguirk

Woah. WOAH. Look, I'm sure Poorman sucks, but let's not say things we can't take back here. That kind of language shouldn't be used at this forum.

—Dark Laith

I probably went a little too far and crossed a line to make a point. I apologize to everyone but Poorman.

—bguirk

So, if Poorman and Stryker got in a fight, who would win?

—ZT-In-Exile

All of us.

—bguirk

Assuming they managed to kill each other, but yes.

—Dark Laith

I hope Stryker never reads this forum. He is a very sensitive boy according to Anderson.

When he left many people stopped listening to Love Line.

Yes and many more people started listening when it went NATIONALLY SYNDICATED because of Adam. Thank you.
