Adam Carolla.
Adam Carolla (2:16)
We got a mandate. You get it on.
Thanks for tuning in. Thanks for telling me, Framie. Love that about you. Fitzdog in studio. Fitzdog's got dates. He's a very skilled veteran comedian. So if you want to see how it's done, you go watch him in Fairbanks, Alaska. Oh, that's cool. That's coming up end of this month, end of October. End of this week. I should say this week and this month.
Also Illinois, Toronto. If you go to fitzdog.com, you can find all the dates.
Yeah, do don't do what I did in Alaska, which is announced to the partisan crowd that I've been living off fresh caught salmon for the last week out here. And it tastes exactly the same as the frozen stuff at Trader Joe's. Oh, that was a big bozo, no, no, that was a mistake.
SPEAKER_4 (3:13)
Yeah, yeah, they really, no.
Adam Carolla (3:15)
I turned them on me, quick.
Greg Fitzsimmons (3:16)
They gave me salmon every fucking day, and then they sent me on the road with the smoked salmon in packages. So many, I could not, I left some in the hotel room. I hope they're not listening, but it was like pounds and pounds of salmon.
Adam Carolla (3:31)
Yeah.
Greg Fitzsimmons (3:31)
They're crazy for it.
Adam Carolla (3:32)
It's like your Kodiak Bear or something. Like, what if you didn't like salmon?
You know, and actually kind of, it was funny. It's funny because you and I are comedians and we say shit all the time and oftentimes don't realize how it's affecting other people who don't have the same sense of humor. And I realized, like, and also I realized, I'm really straight when I say stuff. Like when I said to the couple, me and my wife took out the dinner 15 years ago, look, this is about your engagement. We're here to celebrate you, order whatever you want. I'm paying, but anything extra goes home with me. I realized when I got to my fridge the next day and I had an extra pork chop in it, they believed me. You know what I'm saying? And I was two things. I was sitting in this room right behind me and like it was over the weekend or something and Ed, God bless him, but he's not a comedian. He works, he does AV stuff. He came in and he goes, guess who's house I'm going to wire for speakers? And I go, who? And he goes, Steve Martin. I go, who's that? He goes, Steve Martin. I don't know that name. You don't know Steve Martin is? I'm sure there's a ton of guys named Steve Martin. Steve Martin.
I don't know who that is.
Seemed like, yeah, I don't know, the jerk or something. I don't have to get rude. I don't know what that is. I don't know who the guy is. I think he pulls out a picture and he goes, Steve Martin. And I go, I don't think I've seen this guy before. And he's like, you don't know who Steve Martin is? I go, no, I don't know who Steve Martin is. And this went on for like 10 minutes.
