>> MORE CANCELED THEN A
SUBSCRIPTION TO THE WEBSITE YOUR
WIFE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT.
HE WILL BRING DOWN THE HOUSE AND
THEN HELP YOU REMODEL IT.
YOU ALSO WANT A SEXUAL HEALTH
AND ENTERTAINMENT AWARD IN 2000
AND IT’S ALL BEEN DOWNHILL SINCE
.
JOINING ME NOW IS COMEDIAN ACTOR
AND A HOST OF THE ADAM COROLLA
SHOW AND DARE I SAY A LIVING LEGEND, ADAM COROLLA.
[APPLAUSE]
>> I ALWAYS THINK YOU GET SHORT
TRIP, I DON’T KNOW IF THAT’S IN
TERMS OF CREATING THE PODCAST
WORLD.
WEREN’T YOU THE FIRST PERSON TO
FIGURE OUT HOW TO CANCEL PROOF
YOURSELF, YOU WENT OFF AND DID
YOUR OWN THING, YOU’RE YOUR OWN
BOSS, YOU CAN SAY WHATEVER YOU
WANT.
>> I HAD SOMEBODY SAY TO ME
RECENTLY THEY SAID, DID YOU KNOW
THIS WAS ALL COMING WHEN YOU
STARTED YOUR PODCAST 13 YEARS
AGO.
I SAID NO, I DIDN’T SEE ANY OF
THIS COMING.
I THOUGHT WELL, MAYBE I DID,
BECAUSE THAT’S HOW I ACTED.
AND I GUESS I DID LIKE IN INDIAN
WHO PUTS HIS EAR TO THE GROUND
AND FEELS SOMETHING BAD THIS WAY
COMING.
I FELT THAT WAY ABOUT OUR
SOCIETY, ABOUT THE WAY WE WERE
GOING TO APPROACH RHE SPEECH AND
COMEDIANS AND I DID BECOME SORT
OF A THOMAS EARLY ON DOING THIS
WAS COMING.
>> THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN ME AND YOU, YOU CAN USE
THE ANALOGY OF THE INDIAN WITH
ITS EAR TO THE GROUND BUT IF I
DO IT, I’M GOING TO GET FIRED.
>> MAY BE HE WAS AN EASTERN
INDIAN AND THERE IS NO
STEREOTYPE.
>> THERE YOU GO.
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN NERVOUS ABOUT
BEING CANCELED?
WE ARE LIVING IN A TIME WHERE IT
FEELS LIKE CANCELED CULTURE IS
BEING OVER TOLD THAT IT’S ONLY
BECAUSE THE REACTION TO IT IS
THE SAME STRENGTH AS THE THREAT.
DID YOU EVER FEEL LIKE YOU WERE
THREATENED?
>> NO, I HAVE ALWAYS WORKED AND
YOU KNOW, I WAS A CARPENTER LONG
BEFORE I WAS A COMEDIAN AND I
LEARNED FROM BEING A CARPENTER
IF YOU WERE GOOD IN YOU WERE
PROMPT, AND YOU DIDN’T GOUGE,
EXCEPT THE ELDERLY, I ALWAYS
GOUGED THE ELDERLY.
THEY DON’T HAVE THAT MUCH TIME
ON THE PLANET.
THE POINT IS THIS.
YOU WOULD WORK, IF YOU WERE GOOD
, YOU WOULD NEVER STOP
WORKING.
A NEVER ADVERTISED I NEVER PUT
SLIPS ON WINDSHIELD, I NEVER
BOUGHT SPOTS ON BASIC CABLE.
I WOULD SHOW UP, BE FUNNY, GOUGE
THE ELDERLY, AND YOU WILL WORK
IN HOLLYWOOD.
>> AS THIS WORLD HAS CHANGED, DO
YOU FIND YOURSELF LOSING ANY
KIND OF FRIENDS, OR DO YOU STILL
HAVE THE SAME FRIENDS YOU HAD
GOING ON 20 YEARS?
HE IS SOMEBODY THAT HAS
MAINTAINS ART OF THE SAME TONE
AND ATTITUDE AS THE WORLD HAS
CHANGED AROUND YOU.
YOU FIND YOURSELF INCREASINGLY
ISOLATED OR DO YOU STILL GET
ALONG WITH THE PEOPLE YOU GET
ALONG WITH.
I WILL PUT IT TO YOU THIS WAY,
PEOPLE THINK I ENTERED THIS JUST
TO DO A GIG ON YOUR SHOW, AND
THERE IS A HOT PLATE JUST OFF
CAMERA.
ONCE IN A WHILE, I WILL BRING A
LADY FRIEND IN, BUT USUALLY I’M
SO ISOLATED IN THIS VAN.
THE TRUE FRIENDS, THE REAL
FRIENDS, I HAVE FRIENDS IN
HOLLYWOOD AND THEN THERE’S YOUR
HOLLYWOOD FRIENDS.
YOUR HOLLYWOOD FRIENDS DON’T
TOLERATE ANY DEVIATION FROM
THEIR PATTERN OR THEIR PLAYLIST
WHERE THEIR DANCE CARD, SO I CAN
TALK TO ALEC BALDWIN ON MY
PODCAST AND I CAN ALSO TALK TO
DINESH DESOUSA ON MY PODCAST,
BUT THERE ARE CERTAIN GROUPS
THAT DON’T TOLERATE ME TALKING
TO DINESH DESOUSA SO THEY WILL
CUT WITH ME.
THESE ARE THIS SEEM HYPOCRITICAL
BLOWHARDS WHO’D NEVER STOPPED
RAILING AGAINST.
DATES AT TOWN THAT NEVER STOPS
TALKING ABOUT THE EVILS OF
MCCARTHYISM WHO WILL GLADLY
BLACKBALL YOU AND REMOVE YOU
FROM YOUR SOURCE OF REVENUE IF
THEY COULD.
>> YOU SEEM REMARKABLY CALM,
WHEN I LISTEN TO YOUR PODCAST,
YOU NEVER GET UPSET WHICH I FIND
PAINED OF ADMIRABLE IN THE
ENVIRONMENT YOU’RE IN.
WHEN YOU HAVE A NEW THING NOW ON
THE DAILY WIRE THAT IS A GREAT
OPERATION.
WHAT IS IT?
>> IT IS CALLED TRUTH YELLER,
AND IT’S A SERIES OF STANDUP
SPECIALS AND ONCE AGAIN, I
NAÏVELY THOUGHT A FEW YEARS AGO
I COULD SHOOT AS STANDUP SPECIAL
AND SELL IT TO NEXT FLICKS WERE
SOLID TO HBO OR SEND IT TO ONE
OF THE MEDIA LEGACY COMPANIES,
BUT THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN
PEOPLE LIKE ME AND WHAT I HAVE
TO SAY. I NEEDED TO GO SOMEWHERE AND
I NEEDED TO GO SOMEWHERE AND
FIND A PLATFORM I JUST DIPPED MY
CHOCOLATE INTO THEIR PEANUT
BUTTER AND ADAM, YOU ARE AWESOME
.
CONGRATS, AND I’M GOING TO
LISTEN TO YOU AS LONG AS YOU DO
WORK I’M GOING TO BE A HAPPY
CUSTOMER.
