**Adam Carolla** (0:28)
Yeah, get it on, got to get on a trip.
Dr. Drew Pinsky. Oh, what a relief it is.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (0:38)
Oh, yeah. Speaking of ancient commercials, I think I watched the Love Boat episode yesterday that you were watching when I called you.
Where Julie McCoy is getting into some weird situations. It was so uncomfortable that whole episode. Is it the one where the girl's trying to get Julie's job by seducing the captain?

**Adam Carolla** (0:58)
Yeah, seducing.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (0:59)
Well, sort of the captain. I don't know what the hell it was.

**Adam Carolla** (1:02)
Yeah. Well, they had a god I was trying to remember again, Princess Cruises and I don't know, maybe Gary can look this up, but it maybe didn't even exist back then. But there is something called script approval. And you can do a fictitious basketball team or fictitious baseball team, but if you want to do a story and you want the New York Yankees logo to be on it, the New York Yankees are going to go, well, what's going on in this episode? I don't want you making us look bad.
And the thing that was crazy about that time is at the beginning, it's Doc and Gopher and Isaac like standing around and they're like, and Julie, the cruise director is like, well, there's a new trainee on board and we got to show her the ropes. And they're like, oh, wait a minute, her? Let me add her. And they're all like jockeying.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (2:06)
Yes, fighting each other.

**Adam Carolla** (2:07)
I'm like, I'm going to bed her before you. She's a trainee for the cruise line.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (2:13)
And by the way, 35 years younger than Doc, 40 years younger.

**Adam Carolla** (2:18)
Beautiful, nubile young woman is coming on to the ship to train and they're all arguing over who gets to bang her. Which now what it says is because this is ubiquitous and just went on, it was basically it's like this.
It's like if you took somebody from the 50s and you just parked them at the United Lounge at the airport and they just pulled out a cigarette and like lit it up and people run at him, go, what are you doing? You know, and he'd be like, what are you doing? I'm smoking a cigarette. What's your, I don't know why everyone's not smoking, but what's your thing? And they go, sir, that's illegal. He'd be like, what? Yes. No, it's not. You want a cigarette? No, we're going to arrest you for smoking a cigarette? This is insane. Right? They couldn't even.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (3:11)
Process, could process.

**Adam Carolla** (3:12)
Man their mind around it, you know? So this kind of stuff was just so ubiquitous and so baked into the culture that even though you're running Princess Cruise Lines, you're like, oh, it's a funny storyline. Everyone's trying to fuck the young trainee.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (3:28)
And there's even an undercurrent.

**Adam Carolla** (3:30)
And the doctor, he's like, come on over to my cabin, I'll examine your body. And they're like, Doc, you know what?

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (3:38)
What am I supposed to do?

**Adam Carolla** (3:40)
That's a doctor for your cruise line.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (3:42)
With a 20-year-old something female.

**Adam Carolla** (3:46)
Right. Who's an employee of yours.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (3:48)
And you're the senior officer over her. She's responsible.

**Adam Carolla** (3:53)
Now we're talking about stooping.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (3:54)
But I think those guys have stuff on their shoulders. I mean, they're technically... Oh, yeah.

**Adam Carolla** (3:59)
Oh, yeah. Much higher rank than she is.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (4:03)
But... Doc apparently played it... Bernie Koppel, who plays Doc, played a different character in the film Love Boat 2
There's a film?

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (4:12)
Well, there were three films before the series. Oh, dude.

**Adam Carolla** (4:16)
Feature films? That sounds...

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (4:17)
No, no.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (4:17)
Made for TV.

**Adam Carolla** (4:18)
Oh, okay.

**Dr. Drew Pinsky** (4:19)
We have to find these and look at them, because this would be like a treasure trove of culture. But do you remember when Bill Cosby was... They had pulled out an old interview with him talking about...
What was the aphrodisiac men used to be preoccupied with?
