Starting point is 00:00:00 Let me ask you a question. You have a best friend? How big would it shock you if somebody told you that your best friend just killed somebody? An Anuloma? Is there an emergency? Someone on the line said they kidnapped my son and they're demanding $500,000. On September 12, 1995, 12-year-old McKay Everett disappeared from his home in Conroe, Texas. It was a crime that shocked the community because the suspect was so unlikely, so unexpected. Former high-ranking police official, he'd run for sheriff at one point.
Starting point is 00:00:34 Law enforcement personnel were pretty much split down the middle over whether or not he actually did this. And to this day, Mckay's mother Paulette still feels that justice was never truly served. I've asked myself so many times, what in the world happened? Ransom is available now.

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, got to get on it. Dr. Drew's fortified with eight essential vitamins. What's going on there, Drusky?
Starting point is 00:02:57 Wonder bread grows bodies in 12 ways. What was that old phrase? We grew up watching all the sugar smacks commercials as part of this nutritious breakfast. They sort of worded it as part of, as if a roofie could be part of a nutritious breakfast if there was a nutritious breakfast on the tray. It was milk. It was always milk and orange juice. And they'd always put a little fruit in there, some of them.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Sometimes they'd cut the banana. Yeah, it was funny. I would look at all those commercials and sort of just go, where'd you get that tray? Because everything to me was a novelty, you know what I mean? Like, how'd you cut that banana? Yeah, why'd you get the knife?
Starting point is 00:03:43 Where'd you get the banana? Well, even the orange juice so the furthest along You could kind of divide the nation which is Orange juice in an orange juice container was considered way out of reach exotic exotic Yeah, we got frozen stuff and they make it with tap water. It was in a tube. Tube, yeah. A cylinder or something and you just plop it into a pitcher and you just run tap water and it would let it melt.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Sometimes I do something fancy, I'd put it in a mixer. Oh you would? Yeah. Wow, Dina. We got a mixer. Yeah, I was looking at old pictures in my house the other day, it's like ugh. The kitchen.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Just so cramped and fucked up. The paint was all falling off and everything, it was caulking everywhere. It was like ugh, it was such a weird. Depressing. Oh yeah, yeah, it was a really depressing environment because it was cramped and it was ergonomically fucked up. I forgot a couple things. The upper cabinets were right above the sink, but there wasn't a break for the
Starting point is 00:04:54 sink. So the cabinets came out 13 inches from the wall and the sink came out like 18 inches from the wall. So you didn't really get the full... Your head would be against the cabinet. Yep. Because... They were all stuck on there. They were stuck on later, weren't they, the cabinets? I don't know. They looked like it. What I mean is most kitchens have a design and that the upper cabinets don't go over the kitchen sink because it's a weird...
Starting point is 00:05:21 Now... Because you're leaning into the sink all the time. Yeah. Yeah, and then the refrigerator was on the corner, kind of cut the hull off, so shrunk the hull down, you'd hit your shoulder on it when you're walking past. Well, good thing there was a dishwasher in the middle of the room. That was so weird. I don't know the dish...
Starting point is 00:05:42 We did not have a dryer. We had a washing machine, but we didn't have a dryer. But why have a dishwasher? Why not get a dryer first? You know, and then get a dishwasher? To be fair. Maybe they didn't have gas, whatever you needed to wire up the dryer.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Yeah, my mom probably saw the mobile dishwasher and it's some yard sale or something, but an impulse buy was probably 19 bucks or something. They had an impulse buy, it was probably 19 bucks or something. They get no hookup. No hookup for that, really. I mean, compared to a dryer, right? The mobile dishwasher was a box that was on casters and it was 28 by 28. And would you hook up to the sink?
Starting point is 00:06:22 You'd pull the hose and the drain and the stuff out of the back. It was retracting. And you'd hook it up to the sink spigot. Turn it on. I mean, first off, my mom didn't even cook. Were we dancing? My mom's kitchen was a miniature galley with shit all over the place. This thing took up 30% of the floor space. You'd be able to go walking around and stuff, but we never used it
Starting point is 00:06:53 because my mom didn't cook. Did you use the top of it as a table or anything? Oh yeah. Yeah, so storage space. Well, sort of. Not really storage, just you could set stuff on it. And then there was the window mount air conditioner. That came later. That was a later addition. I'm saying the dryer would have required a hookup. Somebody would have to hook up the dryer, and that was like a bridge too far. The dryer would have taken a hookup.
Starting point is 00:07:19 But yes, you don't just set it in place. You need to run some 240 or 220 back in the day. Maybe 220, maybe some gas. But my stepdad, John was pretty handy with that stuff. He's an electronics engineer. When did John show up in the history of all that? I'll just say 1977. And so you're?
Starting point is 00:07:43 So that's 11 or 13 or 12 or something. I don't remember. So high school's just getting old. Where the washing, no, not high school. It's just getting going towards high school, right? Well you could argue that when you're born you're getting going toward high school. But you said 13.
Starting point is 00:07:59 I said 11 or 13, yeah. I'm not high school, not thinking about high school yet. I'm still pretty young. But the washing machine was out on the service porch where my room was, and it is also where the electrical panel was as well. Our electrical panel had the screw-in glass breakers. Remember those?
Starting point is 00:08:23 The glass. Can you even get those now? Well, if they blow out, you just shove a nickel in the slot and it won't be interrupted. Now there may be a fire, but it'll work. You know, the lights will come back on. Interesting. Yeah, these weird little glass. Almost like tubes.
Starting point is 00:08:40 No. They looked like they kind of had that, and they were also, weren't they kind of shaped like, they kind of. They weren't that tubby, they were round and sort of squatty. Yeah, yeah, squatty. And you do them with your fingers, you know? And that was the panel.
Starting point is 00:08:57 I should have burned up in a fire, I should have never made it to the eighth grade on that porch, because the porch had the electrical system had the meter And then I told you the meter reader would come into my room He would come around he would come into my house matching the meter reader Back door meter meter guy open the thing. I walk into my bedroom Open my closet read the meter
Starting point is 00:09:24 Go back out through the door. I don't even know why they ever... First off, obviously we're insanely overregulated now. But back then even, they would have went, look, the meter has to be moved to the outside of the house where the reader has a clear shot of the meter. It doesn't have to come inside of the house where the reader has a clear shot of the meter. It doesn't have to come inside of your house That guy came inside of the house to read the meter for 57 years Do you understand that?
Starting point is 00:09:55 They somehow some sort of agreement where you just go to the Corolla house and bang on the door Now good news is my mom was always home. No one was never at work. Sometimes she's locked in the bathroom, so how did he get in there? Bedroom. All right, we got Stephanopoulos and we got Trump's attorney and they're having a discussion. Now remember, Stephanopoulos is just doing the news for ABC, although he did run the Clinton campaign. Hmm, I wonder if that's like a little hit to tell. Yeah. Finally, what do you expect from the sentencing process? I vehemently disagree that the district attorney in New York was not politically motivated here. And
Starting point is 00:10:39 I vehemently disagree that President Biden and his political allies aren't up to their necks in this prosecution. I think the fact that Biden... There's no evidence of that, sir. Sir, there's no... I'm not going to let you continue to say that. There's just zero evidence of that. Well, how about the fact that Matthew Colangelo was standing over Alvin Bragg's shoulder when
Starting point is 00:10:56 he announced this verdict? I mean, Colangelo was the number three official in the Biden Department of Justice who suddenly disappears and shows up as an assistant district attorney Right as Trump's case in in New York starts to proceed after you want to talk about this made there You want to talk about political coordination? Nothing to do. No, it's not this. All right, hold on this pause it for a second They get this thing where they go this nothing did there's no evidence that you just say that over and over and over again, and they have no idea. Like, Trump's campaign was being spied on,
Starting point is 00:11:30 but they said the whole time, there's nothing, there's no evidence, and wait, you can't say that, there's no evidence, there's no evidence. They just kept saying, and then they go, there are mounds of evidence for Russia collusion, so you have no evidence for the thing that happened. There's no evidence that Hunter Biden's laptop is real. There's no evidence, but there's tons of evidence saying it has all the earmarks of Russian
Starting point is 00:11:49 collusion and all, and there's Russian collude in the election. So first off, sorry, George. I'm a little dubious. Like, I'm not listening so much when you go, there's no evidence. But also, why are you cutting the person off and going there's no evidence? Why don't you go, all right, tell me? I don't think there's evidence, but I'm a news person, and you seem to have some information, so let me hear it. Always beware of the cutoff. Also the head shake. Yeah, like what's this guy doing? Well, first off, okay, after all we have seen in the last few years, could we entertain the
Starting point is 00:12:30 notion that the White House may have some influence over some external situations? Remember the part 10 minutes ago when Twitter and Facebook and all that stuff where they were just doing their own thing, but then it kind of turns out later the White House was telling them what to say? Right. So there is precedent. I mean, I'm saying, George Stephanopoulos, can you, in your wildest imagination, think that maybe, you know, Biden, the guy whose son is running to Ukraine and Russia and having meetings with everyone and is on the Ukrainian Burisma energy board extracting
Starting point is 00:13:13 millions of dollars and you're going to meetings with him and you're getting emails and kickbacks and all that kind of stuff. George, can you entertain for a moment that maybe that guy is involved in some capacity with this or is that it's just out of the question? Didn't happen. News person? News person. Run it again. It's pretty, yes, watch it. He shakes his head no, like oh god, this guy's saying things I don't want to hear. ... was standing over Alvin Bragg's shoulder when he announced this verdict. I mean, Calangelo was the number three official in the Biden Department of Justice who suddenly disappears and shows up as an assistant district attorney right as Trump's case in New York
Starting point is 00:13:58 starts to proceed. After the decision was made, Derek? You want to talk about political coordination, George? This has nothing to do with President Biden. Do you want to answer the question about the sentencing process or not? I completely disagree that this has nothing to do with President Biden. With respect to sentencing, as I said before, we're going to vigorously challenge this case on appeal.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Again, how does he know that says, what is this information that it has nothing to do with him? He hasn't got any that says it has to do, but he this information that it has nothing to do with him? He hasn't got any that says it has to do but he doesn't know it has nothing to do. Why does he know so much? Why isn't he in? entertaining that notion Generally the lack of humility around Knowledge and facts is really concerning and again as we always talk about what wasn't it just three years Are you guys being absolutely wrong on all things COVID? Can we entertain the thought that maybe? It's crazy though, isn't it? Yes. You know, it's funny.
Starting point is 00:14:51 The thing that's funny is when you see Chris Cuomo go out and argue with people and debate people, Dave Smith about it and stuff like that, they show up like they never said anything, which is a weird head space. It's a hubris that's like insane. I really don't think they, there's just saying stuff every day and they don't remember what they were saying and how it landed, how it affected people. I don't, you're saying stupid or liar
Starting point is 00:15:16 and I'm just saying kind of like. It's all kind of a crazed narcissism and hubris now where it's like you don't. Yeah, there is, that's living large. Narcissism is well alive in is that's living large narcissism is well like we're living in a time where someone goes you got a debate Emmy over denying him his raise and I'm like I never denied him as a raise I don't debate me about that and someone's got to go you know there's footage of you denying it that he's gonna bring with him. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:15:47 I'll go in there, let me talk, and then you'd say, this is a weird thing because we're in the feelings phase now, right, and so you just go, I don't remember saying, I didn't say anything. I didn't mean that, you're taking it the wrong way, it's not what I said, it's what I meant to, yeah. Well what did Fauci say yesterday? Same stuff. We just heard a tape of you talking about destroying people if they don't get vaccinated. Not what I meant. Out of context.
Starting point is 00:16:12 It's a weird denial. There's no other possible. Ami, is there any other possible context for what Fauci said in yesterday's show? He said, we're going to keep you out of schools. We're going to keep you out of work. We're're gonna keep you out of schools, we're gonna keep you out of work, we're gonna keep you out of restaurants, and it's gonna get tough, and when it gets tough, you'll drop it and you'll get vaccinated. What'd you show you forward to me? There's no other way to interpret what he said.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Now, here's the better question. Anthony Fauci, you just heard a clip yourself, yes? Well evidently you don't like how you sounded. Why not? Right. Why don't you like what you said? Why don't you like what you said? Because if you played me a clip going,
Starting point is 00:16:58 oh, Adam's talking about left turn errors again, I'd go, thank you, that's exactly what I meant. Exactly what I meant. When I went on the fucking doctor show and that quack pussy asked me two days later, oh you said pussies and elderly, what did you mean? I said verbatim, I said exactly what I said. Because I said it and I meant it.
Starting point is 00:17:20 You can go is it right or it's wrong, but that's what I said and that's what I believe. So Fauci, why are you distancing yourself from you? That's you saying it, but you didn't say it, but you did say it. So you know it sounds bad. Now why do you know it sounds bad? Why do you think it sounds bad? Obviously, you think it was wrong because if you thought it was right, if there was
Starting point is 00:17:47 a clip of Fauci doing a podcast saying, I'm glad Hitler killed himself in that bunker in 1944, I wish he'd done it earlier. And then we played you the clip and played it back to you. Would you distance yourself from it? Out of context. Not what I meant. Why are you distancing yourself from what you said unless you realize that what you said was wrong? Also, thank you.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Also, they seem to have no sense of how it landed in, how it affected people. Yeah, yeah. And let's not let off the douche who teed up the question to him who was basically going How do we force everyone to get vaccinated when they don't want to? Yeah. Thank you. Thank you heroes. Yeah All right. Let me tell you about better help the show sponsored by better help Where's the year gone? That's my question drew where the year gone and Something you still want to accomplish?

All right, now let's see. Do you want to play voicemail here, Drew? I do, but I'm looking at an article that got plopped down in front of me. I suppose I should have asked before the show what this is, but you're quoted in it?
Starting point is 00:19:51 Oh, I thought Emmy was going to read it, so I didn't know. Is it something you want me to get into? Well, it's kind of a funny thing. I guess it's an article, the one about Seinfeld? This is about women in Seinfeld, yeah. Even in some comedians who, unlike Corolla, actually praised the advances women have made in recent decades, still blame feminism for the loss of days gone by visual
Starting point is 00:20:16 of what real men can be, do, or want. In his most recent book, What This Comedian Said Will Shock You, Bill Maher offers a similar assessment. Is that part? Well, there's a part of it of me being fearful of the gays. Oh, yeah, that's what we're hearing. But again, I don't know, don't you think Chris has to
Starting point is 00:20:33 highlight that part or something? It just got forwarded to me. Okay, all right. Yeah. Yeah, this is you talking about how gays take care of their homes and they leave their. Well, you gotta find the part where I'm accused of hey, just give me the article you talk about something else Just highlights stuff. All right
Starting point is 00:20:54 Let's while he's looking at that Reminder you can leave as a voicemail at speak pipe comm slash Adam and dr. Do or hit the microphone the top of the home page that they had new Adam and dr. Show in adam and dr. Drew comm or hit the microphone at the top of the homepage at the new Adam and Dr. Drew show, in adamanddoctordrew.com website. But let's go and listen to a voicemail, if you don't mind, Emi. I will talk to Dan on line two. Ace man, Dr. Drew, get it on. My question is for Dr. Drew.
Starting point is 00:21:20 I'm curious what your thoughts are on products like nicotine pouches, like Zin and On. I know in the past you said that nicotine is generally inert. It's kind of like caffeine. Then in small doses it can even be beneficial to your brain pertaining to like Alzheimer's, things like that. But if you look out there, there's a lot of conflicting information about whether or not these products are okay for you or bad for you whether or not nicotine salts are different than just nicotine
Starting point is 00:21:50 And it's kind of hard to know what to believe so I'm curious if you have any insight on to Into products like Zin and on thanks guys. Love you show so Dan we have this weird weird paranoia about nicotine generally. Uh, people cannot separate nicotine from tobacco in their head and they could not be more different. Although nicotine is the part of tobacco that keeps people using the tobacco, which is the dangerous substance. Nicotine itself, it's not that it's inert. It's not what I would call good for you.
Starting point is 00:22:23 I, although you do bring up that, you know, memory problems, alertness, Alzheimer's, nicotine may have some utility. A young healthy person shouldn't be using nicotine if they could avoid it, but... Or caffeine if they can avoid it. Caffeine has clear benefits on... There are some studies I heard about with nicotine and brain function and stuff like that. Yes. Can we file it under hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin and the Who Cares department?
Starting point is 00:22:52 It is a Who Cares. It will addict you. That's the one thing that freaks people out. If you're going to be addicted to it, it's not a... Let's say you're morbidly obese and you want to use it for an appetite suppressant. I would say the risks are worth the reward. What risk? Well, the risk of having to stay on it forever because you get addicted to it.
Starting point is 00:23:09 Yeah, but you stay on coffee forever and you stay on eating forever and you stay on TV forever. We're not aware of any long-term risk. Well, then that's not a risk. Yeah. So it's not great for your heart. It can cause rhythm disturbances and cause anxiety and that kind of stuff. So it's not, again, not what you call healthy, but I also would not call it unhealthy, particularly if you're dealing with something like that. It's a who for your heart, it can cause rhythm disturbances and cause anxiety and that kind of stuff. So it's not, again, not what you call healthy,
Starting point is 00:23:25 but I also would not call it unhealthy, particularly if you're dealing with something like that. It's a who cares kind of thing. I was at a gas station, I saw it on sign, there were advertising vape pens, you know, and they said, not a safe alternative to smoking. And I'm like, this is an alternative to smoking. It is the most effective way to get off tobacco.
Starting point is 00:23:44 But it was not safe alternative to smoking. It is the most effective way to get off tobacco. But it was not safe alternative to smoking, which is, now something, see, something happened. And I remember clearly I was talking to a hairdresser lady, nice lady, but lady. And she was going- The article's right about you. She was going, I heard these kids were vaping, you know? And I said, who cares?
Starting point is 00:24:05 What do you mean? Some of these things, it's full of 10 times the nicotine. I go, okay, it's not a thing. I mean, it doesn't matter. What are you talking about? You can't have the nicotine. And I realized, oh man, these campaigns are wildly effective.
Starting point is 00:24:21 And fucking people up. And, oh yeah, well, they always hurt people, but I'm saying it's like- Well, now they they're saying would you rather have your kid vaping weed or nicotine weed for sure that's their thing now say oh listen they are the fucking food pyramid for everything they got everything wrong yeah they got everything's upside down well why do we want the government to do more shit I think that's if that's true which it is, why are we looking for the government to be more involved with our lives?
Starting point is 00:24:47 Shouldn't we be trying to get them out of our life in every way possible? Here's the deal, Drew. We need the government to protect us. Okay. That's the conceit. The government has to protect us from Nicotine
Starting point is 00:25:08 Well, look no, here's the deal. The government needs to protect us from invading forces. Yes Okay, and then the government needs to protect us from water borne disease that you know Make it into the water the reservoir system federal government I don't know yeah but I'm not at this point I wouldn't care yeah all right and they need to provide a police force again not necessarily federal but they you know there could be a National Guard or whatever okay and they need some sort of regulatory body for air traffic controls and, and, and, and, okay. Some stuff. Yeah. Some interstate commerce.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Sanitation standards and then things to health inspectors and, and we need a board. Okay. All right. Those are the things. We did those things and we had those things and those things are old and now, but we're not stopping. I know. Because they want to keep going. Yes. And so when they keep going, they start getting into nicotine
Starting point is 00:26:09 or they start getting into vaping. And well, I'm including that, meaning regulatory. And then they start putting stickers on every gas pump that if you're pregnant, there's cancer causing carcinogens and the gas. By the way, I don't know what you want me to do with this information hire a homeless guy to pump it for me And then what's that make me? Yeah, you know I mean who's pumping this okay? According to you state of California. It's dangerous to pump gas
Starting point is 00:26:37 Have you have you offered an alternative to me pumping gas? I don't know what the alternative there's no mechanized to me pumping gas. I don't know what the alternative. There's no mechanized gas station where I can just pull in and not get out of my car. I have to get out of my car as everyone does. And how impactful is this? Because I don't know anybody. No, they keep going.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Now, the problem is, I don't like it and you don't like it, but most people like it. Really? Well, evidently they do because they go along with all of it and they even cheer it on. They voted in. Well, they took sand and they filled the skateboard parks
Starting point is 00:27:18 at the beach and they cut down the outdoor volleyball nets at the beach. Was there an uprising? Did most people say something? Or did most people agree? I think they like it. And this is part of the brainwashing that's going on. And now this bell ain't going to be unrung. I mean, we're there. We want safety Uber Alice, and we want it provided by the government. All right. Let me hear from our friends first at Aura. Seems like every week there's some sort of major leak

Starting point is 00:29:44 It's a very simple thing Obviously there are more people who pay little in taxes than there are people that pay great sums in taxes It's always been that way and it's just where we're at. And it has to be there's just there's more millionaires than there are middle-class or lower middle middle class people or poor people. So, but we always kind of understood that we couldn't really take that small group of high taxpayers and get them to give us shit. We kind of, it was baked in to some degree, and we kind of understood it. And in to some degree and we kind of understood it and it's sort of why we have the Electoral College versus a popular vote. We're basically saying, sorry, big throngs of poor people can't just do vote their way. You know what I mean? And
Starting point is 00:30:37 as I've said, whenever the government, you know, the city would go, oh, you know, we're going to raise, you know, in Santa Monica, I would say this all the time, you know, the city would go, oh, you know, we're gonna raise, you know, in Santa Monica, I would say this all the time, Santa Monica, we're gonna raise, we're gonna put a cap on the amount of money it costs to use an ATM. Two dollars, can't go above. And then I would go, that's up to Bank of America
Starting point is 00:30:58 and Wells Fargo, they can do whatever they want. Well, not in Santa Monica, they can't. The people don't want it. The people wanna pay less. I said, well then don't use the. The people don't want it. The people want to pay less. I said, well then don't use the ATM or don't worry watching Mutual come around and low ball both these guys. No, no, no, we're doing what the people want.
Starting point is 00:31:13 Okay, okay city of Santa Monica, let me talk to the people about parking tickets. Okay people, show of hands. Who thinks $61 is too much for a park? Oh, everyone's hand is up. Okay, you're listening, City of Santa Monica? Okay. Who thinks the proper amount for a parking ticket would be $2? Okay, now I see a lot of hands. I'll only do you one better. Who thinks City of Santa Monica should pay you when you park illegally? Everyone's hand would go flying
Starting point is 00:31:41 up his arm. Then I would turn to the city council go. Okay. Well the people smoke it Yeah The real problem is a character issue and we used to understand it. Yes, and we ain't we ain't there anymore Republics require that Yes. Yes, and that's always kind of been known. We have jumped that shark Politicians understand too because they're creating the class Battle they're saying that guy thinks he's better than you because he's got again
Starting point is 00:32:14 Look no further than Barack Obama's like he didn't start that business. Yeah, someone else created that But yeah, you didn't build you had a teacher had a row that you didn't do that What's he doing? He's saying, hey throngs of dumb people, there's way more you than there are millionaires. And every vote is exactly the same. Elon Musk's vote gets canceled out by my mom's vote. So if you're a smart politician, where are you going?
Starting point is 00:32:44 And here we are. And so it goes. And now you know the rest of the story. Who was that? Come on. Paul, Paul, what was his last name? Shit. Paul, wait, wait.

Did you look that up? I did Yeah, yeah, he's gone. Hey god, I went to his hometown or something did a show anyway That's where at drew and it's a problem good times and it can't be really cured because of human nature Politicians are gonna have to start saying something and they won't that's the whole thing
Starting point is 00:33:37 Well, the Constitution's have to gonna have to reassert a bottle given speeches about you didn't build that. Yeah, you know I mean? Yeah. Oh, you got, certain boy, you got enough money. When are you gonna have enough? I don't know, bye. You're out looking for your sixth luxury home. Does that seem, is that enough? Half dozen?
Starting point is 00:33:55 Yeah. That's enough. And the people need to start listening to what these people are really saying. And sort of, I don't know, like I said, I remember right where I was, I was in my swimming pool, and my mom just looked at me, she was probably 76, my mom was probably 80 at the time, and she just goes, Rich people don't pay taxes.
Starting point is 00:34:19 And I'm like, okay, you have to, this is on you at a certain point, you know what I mean?
