Ben is a good interviewer. He gives his guests not only time to answer questions but also the space to be themselves. It's a sincere conversation, not a contrived showpiece.
chris cromeyn I agree. However I was surprised I detected Ben being more deferential than I expected. If I were face to face with either of them I would act like an embarrassing fan boy. Mr Shapiro was an excellent host. He laughed politely and provided much seemingly positive body language. Whatever the reason, this was the best interview of Adam I've heard in a long time.
Hit it on the head. Anyone can ask good questions, their are writers a plenty for that... but the ability to give them the space to answer and speak to be themselves, without an agenda to prove with a hack job edit, is truly refreshing.
I like both Ben and Adam tremendously, but you don't so much interview Adam as you just listen to him😀
I prefer Rogan's interviewing skills better. The interactions seems more organic and sincere. Ben's interviews seem too formal and insincere.
@@QualityQman They're just two completely different people on opposite ends. Rogan may be the best all time interviewer of this social media world. Its more loose and relaxed. But he's not afraid to test is guest. Rogan smokes weed during some of his interviews. Its impossible to compare him to Ben
I grew up in Southern California listening to Adam on Love Line. I've always been a fan of his and his sense of humor (his rants especially). It was great to hear a long form explanation about how he got to where he is
I’m Adam’s age and grew up near North Hollywood. He is so right about life “North of the Blvd” (Ventura Blvd). A real guy! Hats off too to Ben as an interviewer too! Great job!
I absolutely LOVE Adam Carolla!!!!! Great guest choice!
You have the right to stand tall with your head held high Adam. American dream earned, not entitled. Congratulations.👍🇺🇸
Thanks for letting Adam talk, Ben.
Brian Root you don't invite Adam Carolla to not talk.
Fuck that. He'd rule wars for Israel are constitutional
Brian Root well yeah!!!!
My sentiments exactly. When people go off on long winded stories there is a temptation to stop them and redirect the conversation along the lines of the initial direction of the interview. In this instance I thought it was very worth while to just let Adam off the chain to roam. Great interview!
He actually stepped on the last sentence of a 15min story about 37:15 in. Either that or it was just a bad abrupt cut
Best conversation yet...i could listen to Corolla for hours! It's so awesome to hear the story of a guy who grew up doing construction and worked his way to success!
Construction IS SUCCESS!
This interview can teach high school and college kids more about the world than they learn in 8 years of school
One of the greatest expositions of comic genius, hard wok, and entrepreneurship I've seen. Adam is extreme;ly likeable and Ben's show is fantastic.
Adam's so right about virtue signaling is just narcissism.
A lifetime ago, you had to actually do virtuous deeds to be considered virtuous. And the more you try to remind others that you're something usually backfires into you not actually being what you say you are.
"Iam the king" -any man who needs to remind others he is king, is no king at all.. -Tywin..
And the ideal was that you did good deeds but didn't make a big deal and brag about it. Now you get to brag freely and do nothing.
Gwen Jonas, Everyone needs to be a winner nowadays. Bragging about whatever and getting some likes for it is the trophy.
my brother always told me that “if you have to constantly remind people how ‘nice’ you are, then you’re probably not very nice”.
it all about optics these days, no genuine virtue required.
Virtue, virtual... easy mistake, or evil intent? find out multiple times per second, on a feed pushed on you!
Really cool that Ben had Adam on here and Adam didn't do his 'radio guy comic schtick.' -- he's a really thoughtful and introspective guy. Good stuff
Check out the Corolla podcast. Most of it is him talking straight forward
Slow and go on the 405, look out for brake lights. Anyone approaching the southbound 101 to I-5 exchange, look out: mattress in lanes. Now for the weather: Van Nuys: 77, Reseda: 77, Thousand Oaks: 77, Riverside: 77, Golden Gardens: 77, Anaheim: 77, and last but not least we got Yorba Linda checking in, reporting a balmy, balmy, balmy 77 degrees Fahrenheit.
It's worth listening to old episodes of loveline from early 2000s. All on youtube.
As perfect as an interview can get. Incredibly interesting dude telling his life story; being interrupted only to move the story forward so we can hear a satisfying end before time runs out. Terrific job, both of you.
It's refreshing to see an interviewer listening to the guest instead of talking over them, or interrupting them with a different question.
*cough* Joe Rogan *cough-cough*
One of the best interviews I have seen in a very long time. Adam deserves everything he has worked for.
Mike Rowe would be another good guest especially for the younger generation to be exposed to. Good stuff Adam and Ben, thanks. Nice to hear Adam's story.
Mike Rowe is a phony. A bitter failed actor who plays a character to exploit ignorant people who want to blame the poor for keeping them from being rich.
greg H He's on episode 12.
@@JoeKnows44 I dont know him to do this, or find him bitter... How do you find him this way? Can you give me an example?
I know him to promote both blue collar work and teaching people to be responsible for their own destiny.
@@VanIsleNuckFan Don't bother Joe is a troll. Click his profile, he's an avid Bernie supporter. He's only here to troll people.
I used to listen to Love Line on KROQ in the 90's and I remember on Adam's final episode, in the mid-2000's, as he and Dr. Drew were saying their final goodbyes, he was talking about continuing 'radio' from his home. It seemed like a losing proposition, even sad. The concept of 'podcast' was on the level of 'pirate radio'; very esoteric. Later, I heard stories about Adam doing shows on the computer. lol. Still didn't get it. He was there before the technology became universal, and everyone who does a podcast now owes him at least one beer.
A great thing about podcasts is we don't have to listen to them.
@@joeshmoe781 ?? Is that a backhanded comment or what haha
Your spot on.....i been listening to adam since early loveline....this dude has casually predicted so many things that have come true years later its insane. He predicted the ramp up of racism claims before obama took office....then years before hillary ran for office he predicted it would go from racism to sexist shit haha and look where we are at?! Haha its insane...and he gives himself zero credit haha
This was one of the best Sunday Specials in my opinion. Respect to Shapiro for letting Carolla speak, it was an inspiration to hear his story.
This was such a great video to wake up and start my day to. Adam Carolla's like a strong cup of coffee, I could listen to this guy all day.
Adam is the man. Thank you Ben for this interview!
I could listen to this all day. Adam's stories are very engaging and a profound learning of life 101
Adam has always been one of those more unsung intellectuals. Think about how many kids got life advice from him on loveline because they couldnt ask there parents these questions. A whole lot of people. And he has had a lot bigger of an impact than most would give him credit for.
Love the sunday specials!
Deenie Bear I’m always torn between watching them before or after church, usually I try to wait until after church to finish it!
Great conversation! Respect to both gentleman for the intellectual honesty!
Awesome interview also great host Ben..letting the guest speak his mind..the way it should be and super, super civil. Both great Americans!
Best interview I've seen in a very long time. Well done, Adam and Ben.
No one told Adam this is only a hr long. I would have been ok with a long long form interview. It was getting good
Thanks guys. I really enjoyed the sanity and the humor.
Great show, thanks. Way better than cable TV!
wrthrash watching paint dry is better than cable. Lol
CZcams took over the world
@かつしんりゅう人づて u funny
such a great interview! "Almost all roads leads to narcissism" - such a great insight and quote!
This was an excellent episode Ben. Probably my favorite so far. Great interview & keep up the great work at the Daily Wire.
i love Carolla. this was a great show.
My favorite interview in the Sunday special series so far. Adam is genuine and real. As a blue collar worker I can relate to his narrative. Thanks Ben!
Good to see Shapiro laugh, most of the time he is in warrior mode and can't. Carolla is a legend.
Really makes me cringe every time I hear people say "who's going to do these crappy jobs"; I think exactly what Adam said, poor people, whatever color/non-color. Simple.
I was surprised that he said "poor people"...it's just people who need money who take these jobs. Back in the '70s and '80s boys trying to help pay for college took these jobs. These types of jobs are hard and used to pay 3-4x minimum wage. Then the construction companies, corporate farmers, etc figured out they could pay *less* than minimum wage to migrants. This is how it all started. It's not that Americans wouldn't take these jobs...they just couldn't take them for $2/hour
Exactly, entry level unskilled people. Really low IQ people like 76-83 could get it done
Cut the welfare payments and food stamps and there should be plenty of people lining up to dig ditches...
I think he was sort of describing himself. Wasn’t belittling people was talking from a personal perspective
So glad I’ve been introduced to Adam! What a legend :)
Want to hear something truly hysterical? Look up "Loveline Gay Morning Zoo". Then, search "Loveline kid sex problem" (it's actually titled 'kid has a sex problem', but CZcams won't let you look for that).
I've never laughed so hard in my life.
Even though I've heard Adam tell his story before I never get tired of it.
Most useful and greatest guest Ben has had so far, hands down.
God! So true the last bit about narcissism! I have found myself thinking that constantly.
Ben, GREAT SHOW!! I really like how you LISTEN to people in your interviews. Seriously!
These Shapiro Sunday shows are one of the best things going and they’re not overly political. Just enough to get a sense where the guest stands. Entertaining and thought provoking.
It's funny to watch someone as self-confident and intelligent as Ben Shapiro appear in awe of anybody.
I wish Carolla could get Kimmel and Shapiro in the studio so they can hash issues out. That would be something.
Kimmels got late stage TDS. Very hard to cure
Hollywood has Kimmel by the balls. He had to abide by their liberal agenda or else.
Could Kimmel bring his writers with him?
James Harrelson Kimmel wouldn’t go near Shapiro! His virtue signaling would look foolish in a real conversation.
WickedRoller:. Kimmel embraces it. I now find him insufferable, he's not forced to do anything. His idiotic, self righteous speeches come from the heart, but his head is nowhere to be found.
"...I know you're Doogie Howser world..." hahaha
Great interview. It's great when the interviewer lets his/her guests speak freely. Well done.
Parental self-responsibility and a real interest in your kids makes up for a lot!
the real man from the man show lol, not some sjw cry baby
What happened to Kimmel? He's becoming a chick. Adam said that would happen. In 50 years we'll all be chicks. Who would have thought his Man Show partner would be one of them?
cringe
Good interview, Carolla's life story is interesting.
Respect.
Humble pie is delicious. Thanks Mr. Shapiro for letting Adam speak. Aloha
Thank you for sharing your experience Mr. Corolla!!
Thanks for interviewing Adam! This is great!
OMG! Adam just described my life growing up. Lol. Great Show.
Been a fan of Corolla for 20 years, this is one of the best interviews I’ve seen him engage in.
Can you make the Sunday specials more than an hour long, these have all been so good, i just wish they were longer
I love these Sunday shows.
Best one so far. I like this style of Shapiro keep it up.
Great guest Ben can't wait to see who you got next
I can listen to Adam all day. He is so right on.
Adam is complimentary of his friend Jimmy Kimmel and highlights the fact that in his personal life, Jimmy lives quite conservatively. What isn't stressed enough is that many, many mouthpieces for the left actually live these conservative lifestyles but pander to the narrative that their white male privilege, instead of positive life choices, buoyed their lives and careers. This is the epitome of hubris and even quite cruel to the "groundlings" of the left getting marching orders from their leadership and excuses for their failures. It is imperative that friends and celebrities like Adam call attention to this hypocrisy.
I don't think people should refer to the success of celebrities to prove or disprove the existence of white privilege. Celebrities are the exception to most rules, so it's hard to extrapolate how their lives work to the average person.
Corey, I think you mistake the thrust of my comment. Sadly, celebrities have become today's thought leaders. This fact was never so clear as when Trump's approval rating among blacks skyrocketed after Kayne West tweeted a picture of himself in a MAGA hat. Adam discussed that well before any whiff of celebrity entered his life, he had ascertained the secret to success - work hard, don't have children you can't pay for, strive to wait to have children until you are married, etc. When hard-working celebrities (and no doubt both Carolla and Kimmel are examples of tenacity in the industry, not some thirteen year old model discovered by a casting agent in a shopping mall)... when they carry water for the left's narrative, they, as today's cultural leaders, help excuse so many people making poor life choices. Worse, when they actually promote/glamorize poor choices with their song lyrics or their art or their commentary, they contribute to the problem. Growing up and living in the poor, rural South for 51 years, I see a wasteland of human potential - and make no mistake, the poor white families around here are just as decimated as the poor black families. Someone on television or radio or the Internet needs to speak up. Why do you think Jordan Peterson has become a world-wide phenomenon? He's on television and the internet and not afraid to say you've made your own mess. It's time for people like Jimmy Kimmel to wake up to this fact, and it's people like his friend Carolla best able to point this out to him.
Working hard, making positive life choices, and not having children you can't afford are not just Conservative values; they are practically universal. No one is claiming that white male privilege is going to magically allow you to be successful. Hard work is still the best way to get ahead but that doesn't mean that coming from a certain background or having a certain skin color will never give you any advantages. There is at least some truth in both the Left's and the Right's narratives. I agree that celebrities shouldn't be looked to as thought leaders as much as they are in our society, but I don't think most celebrities, including Jimmy Kimmel, are encouraging people to make bad life choices. Just complaining that people have shitty values placing blame on those you think are responsible isn't going to make anyone any smarter. Going out of your way to help people who are disadvantaged by directly helping them or trying to make structural changes to society is not the same thing as encouraging laziness.
I suppose you'll need to show me the evidence that people making good life choices are nevertheless being stymied because of their skin color or backgrounds. I'm not seeing that in my life here among a wide variety of people and income groups, nor are great researchers and economists like Thomas Sowell finding this to be true (read Discrimination and Disparities). Carolla is a prime example of someone with a really negative background taking the "bull by the horns" and changing his family story. Everyone I know is bending over backwards to help people willing to work hard no matter what their skin color, and as someone who volunteered with a highly successful youth theatre for many years, I saw so many opportunities for underprivileged children go untapped. Once, we held a camp in a rec center that had more staff members than campers. We brought in an adult staff of 3 and a teen intern staff of 12 … all for 8 campers. Meanwhile, middle and upper class families paid top dollar for sold out camps with 75 children per camp. I don’t believe that America is full of selfish, heartless people stepping on those less fortunate, and I think it’s up to our cultural leaders to shift the conversation and not allow people to wallow in some esoteric, often comforting vision of being kept down by their skin color or their circumstances “Blame” is a negative term for what I prefer to call a healthy dose of shame. The left refuses to "blame" people for their choices, but at some point, you must say, "It is shameful to have children when you cannot emotionally AND financially care for them." Instead, people like Kimmel blame "the federal government" for not taking care of children, and he particularly points to Conservatives and Libertarians who do not believe that the federal government should raise children. You suggest that these values are universal, but I disagree. I see a nightly barrage of leftists refusing to put shame or blame in even the tiniest fraction of the lives of those making the mistakes. Whether they (like you) can agree to this personally and privately doesn't matter. They refuse to go on record in the public sphere and make what could be live-changing statements to people poised to make what could be super destructive choices.
This exchange should be posted above all comments sections, as a paradigm. No bullshit insults, no braying slogans. Whoever you two people are, be assured: people read this stuff and even though it's a drop in the ocean, it's at least a drop of the right stuff.
Ben Shapiro for Supreme Court!
Jaime Resendiz I tweeted a picture of ben in his judge robe to trump
"...we have finished our thorough investigation into this case, and have come to the following verdict: BUT FIRST A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSORS BABY WIPES NICE CLEAN ASSHOLE YUMMY YUMMY!"
The don’t call it the jew-dicial system for nothin!
@the dude.. spot on! That's hilarious! But first: SHAPIRO FOR SCOTUS
Nooooo. Then I won't get to listen to his insightful daily perspective into politics and culture!
adam is wonderful at telling stories.
I am oddly pleased and proud to find this interview uploaded at 5 in morning.
Mornin! :)
TACOBOY51 very nice way to end the week
Love the Sunday shows! Ben is a good interviewer because he listens and remembers, however I wish he ask a few harder questions. I’m a fan of carolla and knew the answer to most of the questions in advance. Love your show Ben! Can’t wait to meet you in Phoenix this August!
This is episode 8. If you don't like the adds don't watch. Stop complaining about a free show with ads. The ads pay the bills for the show. Get over it or move on.
Mason Macv not sure how “adds” pay bills but those ads sure do
Mason Macv amen
Its not the ads that are the problem. Its the way he does them. He should just pre-tape them so at least the guests don't have to suffer through them.
Harmony Ewing - Ben usually talks to people who make money the same way. The guests KNOW the business and get it.
Mason Macv I am fine with the ads...I enjoy laughing at Ben’s course transition from interview to advertiser.
Listening to Adam Carolla reminds me of my life in so many ways. W hen you come to that crossroads in your life, when you begin to ask yourself what am I going to do with myself? Am I going to settle for this dead-end job, or reach for something better? You look around and you see people with great jobs, and you ask yourself: "How did they get that?" If you put in the extra effort, you often find yourself in the right place at the right time, like Adam did at KROC.
Very cool Ben. Thanks for letting Adam roll uninterrupted and tell his story. He seemed to almost go back in time and relive thoughs early times and events. Very cool. Thanks...
i haven't been this early since, but first, a word from our sponsors.
wyndwalker ....... SINCE WHEN!!!? I hate the suspense!
the proper response is, "the suspense is terrible. i hope it lasts."
Omg these are amazing!!! Thank you, DailyWire!!!
Love these Sunday specials!
“caring out loud” and “all roads lead to narcissism”
so simple yet so right...
You know Adams funny when he can make Ben even laugh.
Excellent! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Really enjoyed this interview great job by both Adam & Ben. Thanks.
I have loved every Sunday special, with the exception that it seems right when things are getting very interesting the show has to end. I felt the same with every guest since the show started. Make it an hour and a half.
Never knew Adam Carolla. Good guy!
Podcast is the future of talk shows and those garbage talk shows with akward audiences cheering and clapping on cue are dying. Let's let people express them selfs and their ideas to the full extent, catchy one liner burns that get an audience cheering have no place in honest intellectual conversation.
I'm with you; I can't stand daytime network TV.
Wow what a guy, I've never seen Ben so quiet it was around 50 minutes of Adam telling such a great story that the master of conversation new just to listen, hat's off to Ben AKA the great one for bringing this man's life to us your both top notch,thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
10 mins in and I love this! I'm a white 28 yr old Male. My dad was a public school teacher, my stayed at home and around 8 yrs old my 1 yr old brother got cancer and died 3 years later. We were fucking poor from all this. I started working at 13 yrs old, got strung out on drugs, copped a felony in my early 20s... Now I'm 28 and a small business owner doing landscape and hardscape design. I started with rusty shovels. There were no privileges, I had food stamps before but that's all the help I got. I had to dig myself out of addiction with no fancy rehabs, and I had to teach my self landscape design staying up later reading google and watching contractors on CZcams. I think this year I'll make 65k. Maybe next year I'll make more. But I have to dig, and dig, and dig to get anywhere. And hopefully I'll be building pools for rich people and get to six figures. White privilege is a joke, all the Spanish contractors I know are making a lot more money than me. .
I can remember listening to Adam on love line in my car, sometimes sitting in my driveway because i had reached my destination and couldn't turn it off. One night a woman called in complaining about her "boyfriend" because he wouldn't stop having butt sex with her even though she asked him not to put it there. Adams advice to her was priceless.
Please get Norm Macdonald on the Sunday special.
Absolutely - While Adam is a clear comic genius, I think Norm is almost unparallelled!
and old Harold Delaney would agree
You gotta love Adam Carolla . Just an honest good guy!
I was busy last summer.., and forgot I hadn’t seen this episode.., Adam is a simple treasure.., but a true treasure indeed ..! 👍
Adam is fun.
Fantastic show!!!!
Awesome interview Ben!! Really enjoyed this one, I've come to look forward to my Sunday afternoons when I get to listen to your specials! Keep up the good work! I truly believe that right now in 2018 we are on the precipice of change in this country. It's right now that's the time to speak up for our beliefs and for what's right, using rational facts and logic. More and more young people are seeing the light and are coming around. We just want the opportunity to be upstanding responsible adults who can stand up for what we believe without being ostracized. (Speaking for myself at the least) Your the man Ben, and Adam was awesome also. I really enjoyed hearing him talk about his life and how he came to acquire his set of morals and ethical values.
I've heard Adams upbringing story a hundred times; it still motivates me. Great interview.
Check out Carolla, dressed for success!
Colten Claybrook his Puma's 🔥🔥🔥!
Enjoyed the episode thoroughly.
I love Adam. He's such a great guy. He just goes to show that work ethic and striving for your goals can get you very far in life.
As per usual, really interesting interview. Keep them coming.
Favorite so far!
Adam's story was very interesting and I love how down to earth he is.
When I graduated in the mid eighties,I was a licensed mechanic and was paid $3.35 per hour. Now I've been cleaning carpet for 23 years.
Great sit down! We need more common sense discussions like this.
Adam is a terrific storyteller.
Awesome interview, Ben.
Love both these guys . Been a fan of Adam since Loveline and my grandson introduced me to the world of Ben.
This is so great, I love hearing Adam's origin story. Great interview so far!
Pissing in the sink, the new eco-friendly rage!
Has that caught on? I pee in my sink at home by using an old cup and pouring it right down the drain and rinse it down with some cold water.. Yay for conservation!
I have been peeing in the back yard (on a fruit tree), in the sink, in the shower, etc ever since I was a kid. There were seven kids in a house with two bathrooms, so we all improvised a lot. When ever I see someone who has no problem peeing in a backyard, I assume they come from a large family, hahahahaha
Bill BurrFan I come from a small family (just me & my mom). I’ve watered more bushes & rinsed out more sinks than I can count.
I just assumed it was a man thing. I also find the balcony to be convenient at 2 AM.
Who says conservatives are not eco friendly? Conservation is our name.
tawpgk it's best enjoyed when you're at someone else's house.
JUST PRE-TAPE THE ADS!!!!!!!!!!
Sean yeesssssssss
SHUT UP I WAN´T THAT BIRCH GOLD
I think Ben interrupting the interview to recite some lines promoting a product is worth more shekels than just the pre-taped ads.
It's a lot like watching a Batman movie and having him jump out of character to pop open and down a refreshing can of Coke. Imagine what Coca Cola would pay for something like that.
Sean. Donate a few thousand dollars so they don't need adds.
ya know what fellas, I didn't actually consider the fact that live reads would be more profitable. So fair enough
It all comes down to instilling work ethic in your children. Thanks mom and dad.
This dude’s racing documentaries are top notch. Very talented guy.
