So what's it like to be the mom of four little girls and the wife of an NFL quarterback? Well, it's absolute insanity in the best possible way. But you can hear that for yourself
Starting point is 00:01:26 when you listen to my podcast, The Morning After, with me, Kelly Stafford. And yes, Matthew joins sometimes too. It's parenting, it's marriage, it's friendships, and it's football. It's our life. So check out The Morning After with me, Kelly Stafford, at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music,
Starting point is 00:01:42 or wherever you listen to your podcasts. Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, or wherever you listen to your podcast. Recorded live at Corolla One Studios with Adam Corolla and board-certified physician and addiction medicine specialist, Dr. Drew Pinsky. You're listening to The Adam and Dr. Drew Show. Yeah, get it on. What's going on there, Drewski? Yeah, man. Did you hear about this guy on Reddit that revealed that his wife asked him because she only has nine months to live, allegedly.
Starting point is 00:02:21 I don't know what. I can't think of any condition that gives you exactly nine months survival but okay. The allegation is she has nine months to live and she wants to sleep with her ex one more time before she dies. Yeah. Do we co-sign that? I just see that
Starting point is 00:02:38 the potential for abuse is vast if people start adopting this policy. You know what's weird about me is when I kind of hear about these stories, I just go, you know, maybe it's true, maybe it's not true. It's just another kook in the world who's now expressing themselves and we're talking about them. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:02:59 Which is the kook, the lady? Yeah, I mean, I guess the husband. I mean, kind of what I'm saying is, well, you tell me. But I don't know. We're hearing too much. I think it's healthy. I'm not, you know, people do a lot. Did you see this?
Starting point is 00:03:14 Did you see that? Did you see this? And I go, no, no. And then they start trying to tell me the story. And I'm usually kind of dubious and sort of. But even if it is all as they say it is, I'm still not that interested because there's just, you know, the country has, you know, 330 million people in it. The earth has, you know, 7 billion people on it. And there's going to be a lot of kooky shit that happens.
Starting point is 00:03:41 That's true. And it always did. Yeah. We just didn't know about it. Yeah. We just didn't know about it. Yeah. And I am not so sure that knowing about it is a good thing. Yeah. I think that is part of the problem. I think there's, you know, it's kind of interesting.
Starting point is 00:03:58 I mean, you can tell me, but I made my son watched the movie Damnation Alley with me, which was a big 70s movie, part of my childhood, because I had the big Damnation Alley truck with the 12-wheel truck and Bob Jan, Michael Vincent, blah, blah, blah. And he just kind of kept looking at me going, what the fuck is this? This is horrible. This is horrible. This is horrible. And it's like, yep.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Yeah. But what it is is I find myself sort of looking back. Now, maybe there's something here and maybe there isn't something here. But I like to go look at old cars and go, look how they did it. Look what they were doing. Here's what they're trying to do. But they didn't know, you know, whatever. Which is kind of the opposite of scrolling through your phone. You know, what's happening?
Starting point is 00:04:53 What's happening? What's happening? I'm sort of like what happened before. You know what I'm saying? See, I do a lot of that on like TikTok. I look at history stuff, look at archaeology, look at physics. There's stuff out there. I guess when we look at history stuff, look at archaeology, look at physics. There's stuff out there. I guess the movie looks at it.
Starting point is 00:05:05 No, I agree. But I mean sort of stuff that happened and then why it happened. Why it happened. And so the thing about when you enjoy cars, let's say, and you go look at an F1 car from the mid-60s. It's like no arrow, wings no arrow just a kind of cigar tube with you know then you get to like the early 70s you start seeing these wings you know what i mean but they're they're kind of crude and they went you know they're not sure exactly all they did you know yeah then you get into the 80s and 90s, you start seeing canards and flaps and little finesse things.
Starting point is 00:05:46 And now you get into what they have now, which is tons of aero, tons of using the wind to cool this and plant that and fix this. We had wind tunnels back then. They had aeroplanes, jets. Why didn't we take advantage of that? And airplanes, jets, why didn't we take advantage of that? A lot of it was, I mean, I was talking to Pete Brock, the guy who invented the Cobra Coupe with the weird body on it that everyone laughed at him for, but turned out like the cheat in the winds. And, yes, he found the old German papers that we got after winning World War II, and they made their way to GM, and he was reading in German, but he could read the calculations and realize they had something. Like, it worked.
Starting point is 00:06:32 He could do it, you know what I mean? And then built it and did it. But there's a lot of old ways dying hard, and everyone knows there's a kind of conventional wisdom that permeates you know yeah the bubble the group thing and there's a sort of a thing it's it's not some of it is a little counterintuitive like you would kind of go well you want this thing to cheat through the the air the air you know shape it like a wedge you know just go right through the air, you know, shape it like a wedge, you know, just go right through the air, you know, make it pointy and stuff. And it's sort of like some of that's true, but not all of it.
Starting point is 00:07:13 And we got to go figure out which parts of it are true and which parts, you know, aren't true. But you get to see things evolve. I mean, if you just want to see technology, just go look at a Grand Prix F1 car from the 50s and just go right on through to yesterday. And that's what you'll see. Well, that's what we do. That's what we do when we're motivated. When there's competition.
Starting point is 00:07:40 That's what motivated us, that competition. that's what motivated us, that competition. Now, if the government's just running the cars and in charge of who wins and who loses something, no, we don't get that. You know what I mean? Yes, I know what you mean. I bear witness every day. But when the government moves out of the way
Starting point is 00:07:57 and competition rears its ugly head, then we get this evolving. Forward progress. Forward progress. Yeah. Yeah, so I wonder, you know, we get this evolving. Forward progress. Forward progress. Yeah. Yeah. So I wonder, you know, if you're sitting around wringing your hands thinking about climate change, then you're kind of looking ahead and upset, you know?
Starting point is 00:08:16 And if you're kind of looking into these stories about what, you know, just all the stuff of the, they want to say, don't say gay in Florida. You can't say gay in Florida. This is an outrage. It's an outrage. You know what I mean? And then the climate, you know, and all this, you know, Trump wants to get reelected and, you know, end democracy and blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:08:36 How would you be satisfied or happy? Oh, if you felt, oh, no, no. You'd be upset all the time. It seems weird, but in a weird way, you need to kind of walk through a museum every once in a while and just sort of see how people used to live and how bad people had it and how amazing the species is of what we're able to do and calculate and evolve, you know? No, it's not that hard to switch, to flip into sort of inspired and motivated. But they won't hear of that. No, no, no, no, no, no. Fall in line, fall in line, fall in line.
Starting point is 00:09:15 You go to one of these places that has aircraft from the wars and you see what was in the air in world war one and then world war two i watched a documentary oh my god on the guy that was the sort of lead manager for the the sr-71 and the uh what's the the rocket one the x x15 or whatever it's the same guy and it was all out in new mexico at the Skunk Works. Do you know why they called it the Skunk Works? Oh, I remember this one. Yeah. It's very simple.
Starting point is 00:09:53 It was near a plastic plant and it stunk on that end of the building where they stuffed these guys. They were doing the out there research and that name then stayed. But he was – this one dude was the driving force. His name was Kelly. Yeah, I think it was Kelly something, yeah. I don't think of his name. Kelly Skunkworks. But damn, when you, that SR-71, when you really,
Starting point is 00:10:17 and a lot of pilots got lost flying these things. You don't realize how many guys gave their lives and risked, knowingly risked their lives. Kelly? Kelly Johnson. Johnson, yeah. Oh, I said Johnson the same time. Johnson. That's Kelly Johnson.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Yeah. Yeah, he ran that. And yeah, that was a plane that could fly faster than a bullet. You know, another interesting thing is they were interviewing one of the old pilots from there and he said, when you get up there, it's completely silent. Why? Because the sound is three mocks behind you isn't that interesting the plane is going so much faster than the speed of sound that the sound is literally behind you you know it's one of the
Starting point is 00:10:55 most ominous looking aircrafts ever made and it does not possess any weaponry which is another thing that's sitting on the uhrepid in New York. Yeah. It's just sitting there. You can see it when you drive down the West Side Highway. Yeah, no guns, no missiles, no nothing. All surveillance, pre-satellite. Pre-satellite and pre-stealth. Yes. Had to figure out a way to outrun Russian missiles, and that's the only way we could
Starting point is 00:11:22 do it, like going faster than a missile. Isn't that crazy so somebody sat down and went uh we want to know what's going on over there in russia yeah and we want to take pictures from the sky one of the things they didn't get into but they showed some of the photography is how that technology evolved too i, they look at somebody's mailbox from the ionosphere. It's crazy. No. So what we've said is we need to go on over there in Russia. We need to see.
Starting point is 00:11:52 We need pictures. Well, guess what? In military, competition. Right. The only thing in government that's competitive, I would say. Right. So we're going to make an airplane that flies faster than a bullet shot from a gun. We're going to make an airplane that flies faster than a bullet shot from a gun.
Starting point is 00:12:08 And we'll put a man in there and a camera and he'll fly over Russia. And even if they detect him, it doesn't matter because they can't get to him. By the time they see him, he's gone. But this thing is going to have to travel at 3,000 miles an hour. I don't even know if they'll still, if they tell us now they tell us now. How fast it was going, you mean? Yeah. I don't know, maybe 2,500 miles an hour, 3,000 miles an hour. I just found it so fascinating.
Starting point is 00:12:37 This dude was just like, we can do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. And managing all these engineers and these ideas and impossible feats. And he's like, I can do it. Let's figure it out. Right. But that's, that is exquisite and sort of man at his best.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Yes. Why is that not being taught in schools? And then we get to homelessness and we're like, can't we, we can do this. We can do the SR 71. We can do this, these other things too. The homeless thing I'm telling you is would not be hard to solve. I'm here to tell you, I treat those patients. I know what this is.
Starting point is 00:13:12 And by the way, some of the county board people have come to me. I said, here's what you do. I said, here's the deal. Just do it. It's going to be easier than traveling faster than a bullet fired from a gun while inside an airplane. I think we can agree on that. It's actually, yes, categorically. And it's doing something we already know how to do, but it's just doing it.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Yeah. I didn't want to launch into a homeless discussion. What I was saying is we, as human beings, are capable of doing anything or nothing, but we have to kind of figure it out. You know what I mean? Yes, yes. And – But we are fearful of – listen, I've noticed Vivek Ramaswamy started talking about meritocracy, meritocracy. That is an evil word right now.
Starting point is 00:13:59 You're not allowed to talk about merit and skill and performance and difference in people's ability. You're not allowed to talk about it. That and performance and difference in people's ability. You're not allowed to talk about it. That's an error. You need to inspire it. Yes. 100%. It's nuts. All right.

Do you know the – you must have heard this story. I don't want to keep hearkening. Have you heard about it? But have you heard about it, which I'm sure you have, the gentleman that was the object of the story, the blind side, the guy that ended up playing offensive line for a couple of NFL teams.
Starting point is 00:15:39 And the family that allegedly adopted him and then shepherded his career forward is being sued because he feels – Michael Oher is the guy's name – that he was not – Orr. Orr, I'm sorry. Was not – did not participate in the money earned from the film. Emmy, you're leaning in a little bit. What's going on? No, no. You're hitting all the points.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Yeah. the film. Emmy, you're leaning in a little bit. What's going on? No, no. You're hitting all the points. But when I read about it, it's like, no, the author didn't make – literally the woman that was the – also that Sandra Bullock played in the film is saying, no, no, we didn't make anything.
Starting point is 00:16:14 And the real outrage here is how accounting is done in the movie industry. We should have made a lot of money too. We didn't. None of us did. Yeah, nobody makes money on that side of the line because what they do is they go, look, you get paid after the profits come in. And so we have to do, you know, we have to. Yeah. Oh, and then you go, well, the movie made one hundred and seventy three million dollars.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Of course, there's all the advertising we had to do back that out and then there's the cost of the production and it magically never makes a profit correct so you never get paid yeah we never hear elizabeth warren screaming about the movie industry's uh lack of taxes yeah never yeah nobody cares about amazon she's all about but the movie industry when they don't pay taxes for their productions, she's not interested. Or you want to talk about fat cats. I mean, there's some fat cats that go after. But they never make a profit according to them.
Starting point is 00:17:14 And so many people do not get paid. And I'm sure there's a tax, big, strong tax component to it as well. Yeah, listen, all these stories, this is what happens. You go, they said they adopted him. They never officially adopted him. They put him on a conservatorship or something, but they say it's because it had tax advantages for him, whatever. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:17:38 It's just there's another side to the story. I know everyone loves the sort of story of the black man being wronged by the people that look like retired golfers. But there's another side. Of course. And the press never reports it. You should just hear that part. I never say
Starting point is 00:17:57 the other side is going to be credible or change your mind even, but let's hear it. At least. Well, this reminds me of that story of the woman, the shop owner, hanging a pride flag out in front of her shop. Did you hear about this? Oh, I'm not going to say anything. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Because I heard about this story on the ride in, and my first thought was it can't be the way. That's not what happened. Two on the nose something something's missing yeah so it was pitched to me that uh somebody wanted to hang a pride flag in front of the shop and an upset customer shot him dead shot her in the head and and i was like by the way thanks news for ruining me because i'm like that's not what happened yeah well it's Something happened. Yes. Other than what you're saying. Right.
Starting point is 00:18:45 But again, it's a school of Christian teens swim down a troop of dolphins, corral them into the shallows. Like, nah, didn't happen. Yeah. Yeah. And because they don't get traction anymore, they kind of drop it. They try it for a few couple of days. And by the way, this kid that shot the woman was killed in a shootout with the police like 10 minutes later. What was their version of this story?
Starting point is 00:19:10 Their version was he was outraged that she had a pride flag in the window and shot her for the flag. The reality is it was an acutely psychotic individual. I'm sure railed about a lot of things, including the flag in the window. That's what psychotics do. And was violent and paranoid and shot somebody and then got himself killed by police. Right. That's it. That's the story. Severe, severe mental illness.
Starting point is 00:19:34 That's the story. Not anti-gay anything. Right. Yeah. That's how it all works and then i like it when the news gets on something like the gay black dancer who was stabbed in brooklyn you know by the teen and then and then they drop it immediately because the guy was muslim right and he didn't like the gay guy dancing as part of the sort of muslim faith and so once cnn figured out that the guy who stabbed him was Muslim and not MAGA, moving on.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Not interested. Not interested in this story. And the thing that's kind of fun about the news is it can be interesting. You can have every component in the world and then you find out, and then they move on. They go, black man, man gay stabbed for the crime of dancing right at a party celebrating outside it was out of a gas station cnn goes oh god yeah if this guy's wearing a mega hat this is six months and by the way we're gonna burn the fucking city
Starting point is 00:20:40 to the ground yes because we're gonna hit this one hard and agitate people and get them out in the streets muslim guy well it's not going to work because we were telling you 10 seconds ago that white supremacy was the biggest problem this country faces right but this guy's muslim he looked white so we're kind of into it but then he's muslim so now we're not and so now we're not going to talk about it ever again. And no one will know the story. Oh, my God. Which is also weird if you're the victim. Yeah. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:21:10 Yeah. Yeah. So now the victim doesn't get whatever he might get from the media because the guy stabbed him was Muslim. And then the media, then he said he was Muslim. And a few bystanders said he said something about being Muslim. And now it's like, all right. well, no, no legacy for you. Wrong stabber. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:29 George Floyd, lots of legacy. You, no legacy. Guy said he was Muslim. Thanks, CNN. Back to Michael. That's how you do it. Michael Orr. So there's a sad piece of the story for me, which is I guess he was like homeless and abandoned and all kinds of trauma in childhood, right?
Starting point is 00:21:46 And to me, it's a symptom of what we've done to people that have been through those sorts of experiences is we make them chronically looking out for victimhood rather than competency and autonomy. And this guy's had a glorious career and everything. He should feel good about it. He should go out and inspire other kids. Instead, he's looking for where he was done wrong. And it's natural to feel that way when you've been through those experiences, right?
Starting point is 00:22:11 But the world now reinforces that and amplifies that. That's the problem. All right. Do your spot there, Drew. Here's what's not a problem. That's our friends at Blinds Galore. Huge Labor Day sale starting Wednesday, August 30th. All custom blind shade shutters up to 50% off.

What do you guys think about the audience out there taking to social media and wantingra bullock to give back her oscar and golden globes that was the weirdest for her role in the blind side that was the craziest thing of all anybody that's ever played a villain i guess has to give their performance awards back or anybody that's ever played somebody
Starting point is 00:23:38 that misbehaved in real life there was a character i don't know we have to give our awards back it's the craziest shit i've ever seen that's how far we've gone yeah this is i i i have the same relationship with those people and much of the news and media as i did with my old crazy israeli neighbor who used to bug the shit out of me and then at some point she accused me of doing something that was nonsensical it was insane like what that was the that was the the shrubs and the spray from your something what the hell she she had she had a um i guess you'd call them pilasters i don't know sometimes people get angry if I say pilaster. Why? Because I think I'm using it incorrectly. Oh, all right.
Starting point is 00:24:30 I'll call it a pilaster. I'm going to look it up on Dick's shirt. She had something that's pretty common, which is wrought iron fencing in between these concrete stucco uh pilasters poles you know every eight feet they were spread out and the and the right iron was in between them read what it says yeah see if it's right a shallow rectangular feature projecting from a wall having a capital and base usually imitating the form of a column yeah so these were freestanding. Okay. So they weren't projecting from a wall. Okay.
Starting point is 00:25:10 And that's where the issue starts. The controversy happens. The controversy happens with that pilaster. But these things were, you know, six foot tall, made of cinder block. You know, they stack them up, then they stucco over them, and they put the gate goes in between. These things are spread out every six or eight feet. Got it. Anyway. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:26 Well, when the wrought iron, the black wrought iron was bolted to the stucco of the pilaster, you could see where it was deteriorating. It was rusting, and it was dripping down the pilaster. The rust was. The rust was from where the wrought iron was bolted to it. If you guys see enough wrought iron works, and you see it like bolted to a block or a cement wall or something, you look under it, you leave it there for 10 years,
Starting point is 00:25:52 you don't put any rust-oleum on it, it'll start to drip some rust, along with a little of the color of the paint, you know, kind of down the stucco. She wanted me to fix them because she said i did that i was like that that takes 14 years to accomplish you know you have to leave it out go through a few winters and eventually it'll start decomposing it's rust running down the side of your pilaster and she's like that wasn't you know you did that i was like well first off how would i it? I'm going to your yard and rust this thing out or something.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Anyway, the point is, is I realized, oh, I no longer have to listen to you because you're insane. Yes. You say insane things. Yeah. I don't know. I do not have to. You know, when AOC is talking about poor women stealing bread to feed. Oh, like, oh, oh, good.
Starting point is 00:26:41 I don't have to listen. Yeah. Now I don't have to listen to things you say anymore. Yeah. Because you've demonstrated yourself to be an insane person do you know what i mean yes which doesn't mean by the way whether it's my israeli coups of a neighbor or aoc it doesn't mean that sometimes she wouldn't knock on my door or couldn't you know hypothetically knock on my door and go uh your buddy's coming over parked his pickup trucks blocking my driveway it doesn't mean that didn't happen it just it just means you say a lot of nutty things so
Starting point is 00:27:15 everything is dubious yeah and you lie a lot so everything is dubious but it doesn't mean this didn't happen that's your fault by way, for doing that to yourself. It's actually starting to scare me. I had these thoughts a couple days ago when the storm was coming in. I was watching all these reports and thinking, you've created a situation where I can't even believe anything. I can't believe you're tracking a storm. I don't believe you. I don't believe it.
Starting point is 00:27:43 It should be the most obvious thing. And they turned out to be lying. I know. Well, now you're tracking a storm i don't believe you i don't believe it i it should be the most obvious thing and they turned out to be lying i know well now you're really screwed and now the next storm watch that comes that's the problem i don't know where to get information about things that are serious and what what do i do i mean it's i i guess i i guess i do i have judgment i like i said i found a meteorologist who said hey it's like a pacific storm you guys have them all the time it's not a big deal it's gonna be one day of this if you're in the desert watch out fast floods are coming get the fuck out of here like oh that's an honest person hard to find everybody else is god they reminded me so much of the virologist and the virologists are still talking that way and again doesn't mean there can't be a nasty variant. I just won't know it. I won't know it from these guys. That's for sure.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Yeah. Sad. And also, you know, this is a kind of micro and macro thing, but we're people are sort of questioning you. Why would you play that fast and loose with your reputation? Do you know what I mean? Like, isn't that a commodity? They're being helpful, Adam. They don't want anybody.
Starting point is 00:28:48 One person. One is too much. I'm helping everybody. They don't understand risk-reward. They don't understand unintended consequences. No, forget about risk-reward. Unintended consequences. No, forget about any of that.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Just in general, you're lying about hunter vine's laptop into a microphone and a camera well because the risk is because i get the risk but aren't you kind of worried about your reputation a little bit you know i mean just people tending you know well let's think i used to watch wolf Blitzer report on the war, shocking on everything. And I was like, Wolf Blitzer said it? Then that's true. Now Wolf Blitzer said something and I'm like, hmm. Well, now you're not even watching.
Starting point is 00:29:34 So that's the problem. Let's go verify that. So, you know what I mean? Yes. Why would you want that? Well, I mean, you don't want it, but I mean, here's what it is. It must be singing to a fan base. Your reputation is a commodity.
Starting point is 00:29:53 It's a really commodity. Why are you playing so fast and loose with your reputation? But because they've whittled it down to a certain group who are extremely enthusiastic about their reputation. They don't care about everybody else. They've got this vocal fan base that will not, you know, thus sayeth the Lord every time he speaks. He likes that. Then that'd be a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Everybody else, they're just dumb. They're stupid. They don't listen. You know, they're maggot, whatever. You know what I mean? It's this weird thing where I don't think they really understand what they've done. I don't really care. Yes, but you go to YouTube or, sorry, you go to Twitter X or whatever it is, and you see these long montages of these people being wrong about everything.
Starting point is 00:30:37 And I was like, I would be horrified if I was watching long montages that came out every other day i'd want to know my proclamation i'd want to know why i made that mistake i'd want to correct you know i'd want to say something yeah i'd want to apologize i'd want to course correct and i would be horrified simultaneously yeah what this is another thing why don't people why can't they apologize what's wrong with apologies i want to apologize for my whole fucking profession. They behaved in irreprehensible ways during COVID. We're in a new world order, and the new world order is just say it, stick with it. Move on.
