Revisit the mega-viral 2013 episode of The Adam Carolla Show, where then Lt. Governor Gavin Newsom sat down with Adam for a no-holds-barred conversation on California’s biggest problem - homelessness, traffic gridlock, wasted energy, and more. Gavin laid out what he claimed were his plans to fix the state’s mounting issues, but more than a decade later, did he deliver on those promises? Has California turned a corner, or has it spiraled even further downhill on every front?

Adam kicks things off by sharing his excitement for the upcoming Rolex Historics at Monterey’s Laguna Seca before chatting about his plans to spend time aboard Rick Caruso’s massive superyacht. He then reacts to Stephen A. Smith’s explanation of why Pete Buttigieg is polling at 0% among black voters despite leading the 2028 Democratic primary race overall, and weighs in on Denver’s bid to host the Gay Games. Then, Adam and Jason “Mayhem” Miller dive into trending headlines, from Emma Raducanu wanting a crying baby removed during a tense 23-minute game, to Jannik Sinner’s Wimbledon serve being interrupted by a rogue champagne cork, to Los Angeles officials cracking down on dangerous street takeover meet-ups with tougher penalties and possible jail time.

Then, renowned attorney and author Alan Dershowitz calls in! Adam opens by asking about the importance of political balance in American governance before shifting focus to the growing challenges of living in California. Alan connects the homelessness crisis in major cities to policy decisions dating back to Ronald Reagan, while Adam voices concern over the increasing trend of corporations and publications blacklisting people for their political views. They also touch on the controversies surrounding Jeffrey Epstein—including Alan’s own legal entanglements, Trump’s alleged involvement, and the mystery of Epstein’s wealth—before Alan shares his candid thoughts on the Democratic Party and the Obamas.

Lastly, Adam recaps his recent fire vlog where he interviews Rick Caruso about how he successfully protected his properties during the Southern California wildfires. Adam and Jason Mayhem Miller discuss the value of trade work, with Adam arguing that college isn't always the best—or only—path to a successful career. They also point out Caltrans work trucks they always see on the freeway and imagine the nightmare of crashing into one. Finally, Adam vents his frustration over a Los Angeles tunnel being tagged with graffiti less than a day after it was repainted, using it as a jumping-off point to rant about modern parenting and the need to teach kids common sense.

In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam kicks things off with a rant about his recent trip to the car wash, where a worker left tape stuck to his rear window wiper. He then shares stories from his time in San Diego, including a bizarre run-in with a crazy homeless guy. This leads to a deeper conversation about Los Angeles’s homelessness crisis and an old hit piece on Dr. Drew, written when he volunteered to join the L.A. Homeless Services Authority. The article, headlined “Dr. Drew eyed for homeless commission, angering advocates who wonder: Is this a joke?”, becomes a jumping-off point for Adam to break down the politics and media spin surrounding the situation.

Later, Jason “Mayhem” Miller joins the show to discuss the latest headlines, starting with the dramatic moment NASCAR driver Connor Zilisch was rushed to the hospital after a post-race celebration went wrong. The 19-year-old had just scored a major win at Watkins Glen when he fell from the roof of his car, knocking himself out in front of the crowd. They also cover the backlash to David Justice’s remarks about his ex-wife Halle Berry, where he claimed her lack of domestic habits played a role in their split—sparking a wave of online defense for Berry. Rounding out the segment, Adam and Mayhem react to news of Gina Carano settling her lawsuit with Disney and Lucasfilm, a case centered on her claim she was wrongfully fired from The Mandalorian for her political views, with speculation about what “future opportunities” with the studio might mean.

In the vlog, Adam welcomes businessman and philanthropist Rick Caruso for a candid conversation about L.A.’s future. Rick shares whether he’s considering another run for mayor, gives an inside look at his Palisades Rec Center renovation, and explains how he protected his own properties — and why a private fire department might be the smartest investment you can make.

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, legendary comedian Carrot Top joins Adam in the studio! Adam kicks things off with an observation about how fans have viewed Carrot Top over the years, and the two react to a classic clip of Norm MacDonald on Conan. Carrot Top shares stories of being mistaken for other wild-haired entertainers like Gallagher, talks about how his comedic roots trace back to his father, and recalls the first time his dad saw him perform live. They dive into Carrot Top’s traditional family upbringing, his choice not to have kids, and the story behind his very first prop, which his NASA-engineer dad helped build.

Carrot Top explains why he’s baffled by moon landing deniers, prompting Adam to recount racing cars with astronaut Buzz Aldrin. The two swap hilarious Jay Leno stories—including one where Leno performed stand-up while still bleeding after he fell down a hill—and revisit Carrot Top’s 1995 appearance on The Tonight Show. They also reflect on today's outrage culture, including the backlash over Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad, and discuss how Carrot Top builds his props today. Wrapping things up, they react to a clip of Carrot Top and Gallagher on stage together and reflect on Gallagher’s passing—plus Adam shares the wild story of a screenplay he and Jimmy Kimmel once wrote called Kill Gallagher.

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, actor Dean Cain stops by the studio! Dean shares stories from his unconventional upbringing in a Malibu trailer park with hippie parents and reflects on his early career in Hollywood—remarkably similar to Adam’s own path. The two dive into the decay of Los Angeles and California, questioning why residents pay the highest taxes and gas prices yet receive so little in return. Dean recounts advice from his director father to keep personal beliefs private—advice he proudly ignored—and they both critique DEI and other progressive movements, calling them deceptive and destructive. Dean discusses his commitment to preserving traditional values like family and education, and the two reflect on the media’s ongoing struggle with Donald Trump. They also talk about the rumored end of The Howard Stern Show, sparking memories of Adam and Jimmy Kimmel’s past appearances on it.


Elisha Krauss joins Adam and Dean to break down some of the day’s headlines. They react to a couple in Idaho charging guests nearly $1,000 for access to their wedding weekend—offering various ticket tiers in an effort to fund the celebration and avoid debt, ultimately donating over $130K in proceeds to charity. Then they turn to Massachusetts, where left-leaning Governor Maura Healey is shutting down the state’s migrant hotel shelter program after it ran nearly a billion dollars over budget. With critics, including her potential 2026 Republican challenger Mike Kennealy, saying "I told you so," the group dissects the policy failure and larger implications for state-run social programs.

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, comedian Dusty Slay joins Adam in the studio to talk about his new comedy special Wet Heat, the grind of performing on the road, and the balance between speaking your truth and reading the room on stage. Their conversation takes a wild turn as they dive into the strange saga of The Beach Boys, from Brian Wilson’s mental health battles to their bizarre connection with Charles Manson. That segues into a morbidly funny discussion about burial methods, celebrities buried at sea—including Dennis Wilson—and a classic Crank Yankers prank call to a burial-at-sea business. They wrap up the segment admiring how rock guitarists coolly balance lit cigarettes on their fretboards mid-solo.

Then, Jason "Mayhem" Miller joins Adam and Dusty to break down some of the latest headlines, including a female police officer in Houston under investigation after vowing on social media to ticket "everyone" because she didn’t get any action the night before. They also discuss Conor McGregor’s surprising move to petition for a spot on Ireland’s presidential ballot and Jim Acosta’s controversial interview with an AI avatar of a Parkland shooting victim, which has drawn heavy criticism online for being exploitative and inappropriate.

Actress and comedian Kym Whitley stops by to chat about landing a role in Happy Gilmore 2 and what it was like working with Adam Sandler, whom she calls one of the nicest people in Hollywood. Kym and Adam dive into his reputation for bluntness, and she shares heartfelt memories and career advice she received from the legendary Redd Foxx. They also discuss how she scored a role on Curb Your Enthusiasm and reflect on the incredible real-life story where footage from the show helped exonerate a man falsely accused of murder.

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, actress and model Donna D’Errico joins Adam in studio to reflect on her iconic Baywatch days—including the moment she found her original red swimsuit and tried it on decades later. Donna opens up about her healthy lifestyle, cutting toxic people out of her life, and the fierce competition she experienced among women in Hollywood. Adam shares his perspective on “difficult” vs. “toxic” personalities and parenting his easygoing son versus his strong-willed daughter. Donna suggests that Los Angeles itself breeds toxicity in people, and the two explore how fame and environment shape human behavior. Things take a spicy turn when Donna introduces her new AI chatbot that lets fans have steamy conversations with a virtual version of herself—prompting Adam to give it a wild on-air test run.

Journalist and To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen drops by to discuss his latest sting operation in Florida, where his team apprehended 41 child predators. Adam vents about careless drivers, leading to a larger discussion on rising child exploitation cases and why predators continue to flourish in 2025. Chris explains common patterns among offenders, the legal outcomes following his busts, and his frustrations with lenient laws—especially in states like California. He also highlights how technology and social media have made it even easier for predators to find victims, raising new challenges for law enforcement.

Jason “Mayhem” Miller joins Adam and Chris to cover the news, tackling stories like a fan getting arrested for throwing a sex toy onto the court during a WNBA game, an Australian state rolling out machete disposal bins ahead of a new weapon ban, and the backlash over Sydney Sweeney’s voter registration amid an American Eagle ad campaign. They also dive into the absurdity of Kamala Harris’ latest awkward appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, comedian and author Phil Hanley joins Adam in the studio! They start things off by bonding over their shared struggles with dyslexia and talk about how it was misunderstood in the past versus how it’s viewed today. They also run through a list of celebrities who’ve dealt with the condition and swap stories from their careers—like Adam’s struggle with reading cue cards on The Man Show while Jimmy Kimmel breezed through them. Later, Adam sounds off on the tsunami warning that disrupted his evening and uses it to critique the media’s tendency to overhype minor threats.

In the news, Jason “Mayhem” Miller joins Adam and Phil to discuss some of the latest headlines. They break down reports that Donald Trump might consider a pardon for Diddy depending on his bail ruling, and react to a $6 million UCLA settlement over discrimination complaints that included a so-called “Jew Exclusion Zone.” The trio also weigh in on Tom Brady’s recent parenting comments, speculating whether his words contained subtle digs at ex-wife Gisele Bündchen.

In the final segment, former MMA fighters Keith Jardine and Tait Fletcher stop by the studio to preview their new film, Kill Me Again. Keith shares the story behind his iconic nickname “The Dean of Mean” and recalls his wildest fights from the early days of MMA. The guys talk about the grind of writing their script, raising funds, and launching an independent film project. They also reflect on their time playing sports in high school and college, and what it’s like transitioning from full-contact combat to storytelling on screen.

The two compare the chaotic lifestyles of Hulk and Ozzy Osbourne before wrapping up with a broader discussion on how today's culture reacts to controversial marketing and advertising.

Then, they react to Jay Leno’s recent comments on how modern late-night hosts risk alienating audiences by taking overt political stances. Adam weighs in on whether comedy still offers an escape from everyday life or has become yet another platform for ideological messaging. The conversation touches on authenticity, entertainment, and the shrinking space for neutrality in pop culture.

Actor and comedian Darrell Hammond joins Adam in studio to talk about his legendary run on Saturday Night Live and what it was like taking over for the iconic Don Pardo as the show's announcer. He reflects on the surreal experience of watching old sketches of himself, including a memorable one where he portrayed Bill Clinton on the phone with Saddam Hussein and Monica Lewinsky.

Adam reflects on how doing the opposite of his mother’s advice led him to success, and he asks Andy whether Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David were playing exaggerated versions of themselves or just being authentic. Andy brings in a clip from The Merv Griffin Show, where he performed a spot-on Frank Sinatra impression, prompting a nostalgic discussion about Merv’s legendary career.

Adam kicks things off by asking Steve about his experience during the Palisades fires, and the two dive into the state’s slow and confusing rebuilding efforts. Adam praises Guttenberg’s classic film Diner, and they share stories about their early days breaking into the entertainment business.

In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, comedian Greg Fitzsimmons joins Adam in the studio! They kick things off by sharing their thoughts on the best types of audiences for stand-up comedy and why having friends in the crowd isn’t always ideal. Greg recounts a time he got into a fight at a comedy club, while Adam explores a theory on rising aggression among women. The two also react to a clip of Martha Stewart admitting to an affair and debate the etiquette of dog-walking and cleaning up after pets.

They also react to the TSA’s recent announcement that it will end the long-standing rule requiring passengers to remove their shoes during airport security screenings—a move that could streamline travel but has people questioning whether it’ll actually speed things up or lead to new headaches.

YouTubers and ghost hunters Kris Collins and Celina Myers stop by to talk about their new film House on Eden. The conversation dives into the world of ghosts—what causes someone to become one, the cultures most fascinated by the supernatural, and the latest tech used to track paranormal activity.

To close out, they ask Adam what he believes about the afterlife—and who he might choose to haunt if he ever became a ghost himself.

Adam shares his opinion on female aggression, and Ralph explains what led him to write his new book, The Great Chinese Art Heist. The conversation shifts to election integrity, foreign influence, and the dangers of electronic voting machines—prompting Adam to recount his own experience trying to vote in California.

Adam pitches a new idea for content creation and shares a hilarious memory of doing a live Loveline show with Dr. Drew.

The two dive into the dismal state of California's leadership and the lack of progress in rebuilding homes destroyed by wildfires. Adam offers some philosophical thoughts about fires, earthquakes, and chimneys, while Bridget shares how her husband’s blood pressure dropped after moving out of the state. They discuss the decline of common sense in modern society and Bridget reveals her most unpopular opinion.

Later in the show, legendary writer and director Larry Charles joins Adam to talk about the creative process behind comedy, his early days selling jokes outside The Comedy Store, and how he broke into the industry. Larry shares stories from working on Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and directing Borat, revealing why Sacha Baron Cohen deserved an Oscar.

In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, financier and former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci joins Adam to talk politics, culture, and the shifting landscape of American cities. They kick things off by examining how Zohran Mamdani mobilized young voters in New York and why the Left’s embrace of socialism continues to resonate with younger generations. Adam and Anthony unpack cultural responses to political change, explore why Jewish voters often lean progressive, and dive into the tribal roots of antisemitism. Scaramucci also weighs in on California’s transformation from a red state to a blue one, and Adam reacts to the viral clip of the San Francisco mayor being booed out of a Pride parade.
