On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, actor Lou Diamond Phillips stops by the studio to share stories from his life and career. Lou opens up about the origins of his name, the strange ways fans insist they’ve met him before, and his love of cooking for family and friends. He recalls making sandwiches his mom would make him as a kid, working at Whataburger and even preparing lunch for Willie Nelson, and the worst job he ever had. Lou also dives into Hollywood life, from his early days being cast in Hispanic roles despite not being Hispanic, to getting dragged 100 yards behind a horse on the set of Young Guns 2, and talks with Adam about how hard it is to make a good comedic film or TV show.Later, stand-up comedian Mike Vecchione and MMA personality Jason “Mayhem” Miller join Adam in the studio. They kick things off talking about the myth that white people don’t want to work the typical manual labor jobs that immigrants take, and compare sports in high school back then to today, where schools make special accommodations for kids who aren’t as athletic. Adam shares a brutal story about being rejected when he tried asking a girl out, while Mike and Mayhem weigh in on the challenges of growing up and competing in those environments. Adam also asks Mayhem for his take on the Raja Jackson situation.In the news, Mayhem joins Adam and Mike Vecchione to discuss the week’s trending headlines. They cover Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement, joking about the couple as “your English teacher and your gym teacher getting married,” and react to Burning Man 2025’s Orgy Dome being destroyed by fierce desert winds, with organizers vowing to rebuild.

You are ruining Dusty's appearance by focusing on this creep unfunny topic. It must have something to do with your condition.

I don't know what in the heck is going on at Carolla Digital or with my podcast app, but this is the first release of the Adam Carolla Show I've received since March, and it's a dang Classics episode. I like em and all, but I want my daily ACS. It's been 15 years on a daily basis, and I don't like change. Grumpy face.
Did anyone else get these shoes late, or was it just me? I didn't get a show Mon or Tues, and then 2 drop at once on Wed. And the shows weren't on Ace's website either, cause I checked.
one of the best episodes Adam has put down. Adam makes a great point about intercity youth and had me laughing out loud
