Best thing that's ever happened to you financially, go.

**Adam Carolla** (0:02)
Easy, sold my car on Carvana, amazing offer.

**Alison Rosen** (0:05)
Really?

**Adam Carolla** (0:06)
I hit 200 on a scratcher. Did the scratcher come to your house and hand you a check? No. How many scratchers did you hit to get that? I hit a button on carvana.com once.

**Bryan Bishop** (0:15)
Okay, that's fair.

**Adam Carolla** (0:17)
It's like the lottery, except you always win.
Not like the lottery at all, actually. Exactly, inexplicably good. Offer's worth bragging about. Sell your car today on Carvana. Pick up VsMayApply.

**Adam Carolla** (1:19)
Good day, Gina Grad.

**Gina Grad** (1:20)
Good day to you.

**Adam Carolla** (1:21)
Handballed Bryan.

**Gina Grad** (1:22)
Well, everybody likes something that's been ogrotten.

**Bryan Bishop** (1:25)
True, but it's non sequitur, to say the least.

**Adam Carolla** (1:28)
I got some best of Dr. Drew.
Why Dr. Drew secretly is a horrible person? Well, not a secret anymore. I'm gonna play you guys some clips of that.

**Bryan Bishop** (1:37)
Plus that secret wide open.

**Adam Carolla** (1:38)
He's a horrible broadcasting partner.

**Gina Grad** (1:42)
And yet you still tolerate him.

**Bryan Bishop** (1:43)
I was gonna say, you do a show five minutes a week with him.

**Adam Carolla** (1:45)
You know what?

**Gina Grad** (1:45)
For how many years?

**Adam Carolla** (1:47)
He's like Phil, like he's worthless. He doesn't do anything. He'll take advantage of you. But he just, you love the guy, you know? You just, he gets whatever he wants. But I mean, like, Drew is, I'm convinced wildly passive aggressive. Because like for years, he'd like, he'd always like bang his coffee mug around, you know? And he'd do a lot of that. Say thank you to the interns as you're talking on the air.
Well, that was-

**Bryan Bishop** (2:13)
Call screeners.

**Adam Carolla** (2:14)
That was one of those many love line situations that I attempted to fix it by making a proclamation that Drew's coffee had to be brought into the studio before the show or during a commercial, but not as the show was beginning. So I would be going, Dr. Drew's board certified physician, a love line.
And then I just hear Drew in the background, I go, thank you. And then you hear the mug go down and I'd go like, don't do it, don't. And then of course, yeah, the way I'm wired. Drew, please. Here's the way I'm wired. The way I'm wired is once I say, don't do it, no mas, you must deliver that coffee to him before the show. I don't care if it's seconds before the show, but you can't do it while the show is going on. The door closes with a thud, the person opens it, whatever. The way I'm wired, when it then happens again three days later, my mind starts going berserk. Like, I literally, my mind is throwing punches at a dream catcher filled with catch hit. That's what's going on in my mind. And that part where you go, just, you know, stay focused, move forward. I cannot, like I'm going out of my mind. Like, my mind is screaming while I'm opening the show.
In my mind, I'm screaming, what the, what's going on? What did we do? We just talked about this. You've been here for an hour. Like, what, I cannot let that pass. I don't know how you guys are.

**Gina Grad** (3:53)
Well, I think, I think on the air, I think that's what we're all trained to do is doesn't matter what's going on. Just stay focused, toe the line, do your job.

**Adam Carolla** (4:00)
But are you, are you incensed? Like I'm incensed, like I literally told an underling, I don't want this to happen again. And about three shows later, it happened again.
