They also dig into modern court cases like the Diddy trial, failed socialist states like Cuba, and the collapse of leadership in places like California. Sammy shares insight on political bribery, claiming Democrats were easier to bribe than Republicans, and he reflects on the importance of the Mafia “code.”Fitness expert Vinnie Tortorich drops in to discuss today’s modern health trends and their effectiveness. Adam shares his “safe spaces and octagons” theory, and Vinnie opens up about his experiences at Mount Whitney and extreme endurance events. They explore the truth behind infrared saunas and hyperbaric chambers, and Vinnie gives his hot takes on popular diet myths—debunking the health claims behind sourdough bread and brown rice, while promoting magnesium, creatine, and olive oil.In the news with Jason “Mayhem” Miller, the guys react to a viral airplane meltdown, where an entitled lawyer attempted to cut the deboarding line, sparking chaos and chants of “Karen!” from other passengers. The confrontation—complete with shouting, a crying baby, and social media backlash—leads to a broader conversation about travel etiquette and why patience is in short supply.

In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, comedian Greg Fitzsimmons joins Adam in the studio! They kick things off by sharing their thoughts on the best types of audiences for stand-up comedy and why having friends in the crowd isn’t always ideal. Greg recounts a time he got into a fight at a comedy club, while Adam explores a theory on rising aggression among women. The two also react to a clip of Martha Stewart admitting to an affair and debate the etiquette of dog-walking and cleaning up after pets. Adam recalls a traffic altercation in Santa Monica, and Greg shares a nerve-wracking memory of getting a flat tire outside Yankee Stadium at 17—and being rescued by a mysterious stranger. In the news, comedian Mike Dawson joins Adam and Greg to discuss the headlines. First up is the strange case of Vice President Kamala Harris’ appearance on a TikTok show called Subway Takes, where her interview was reportedly so uncomfortable and incoherent that she and the host agreed to delete it entirely. They also react to the TSA’s recent announcement that it will end the long-standing rule requiring passengers to remove their shoes during airport security screenings—a move that could streamline travel but has people questioning whether it’ll actually speed things up or lead to new headaches.YouTubers and ghost hunters Kris Collins and Celina Myers stop by to talk about their new film House on Eden. The conversation dives into the world of ghosts—what causes someone to become one, the cultures most fascinated by the supernatural, and the latest tech used to track paranormal activity. Kris and Celina also share their most compelling ghost encounters and what it was like making a movie for the first time. To close out, they ask Adam what he believes about the afterlife—and who he might choose to haunt if he ever became a ghost himself.Get it on.FOR MORE WITH GREG FITZSIMMONS:INSTAGRAM: @gregfitzsimmonsTWITTER: @gregfitzshowWEBSITE: www.gregfitzsimmons.comFOR MORE WITH KRIS COLLINS & CELENA MYERS:MOVIE: The House on Eden (In theaters July 25)INSTAGRAM: @kriscollinsINSTAGRAM: @celinaspookybooThank you for supporting our sponsors:BetOnlineGet $10 Off @BRUNT with code Adam at https://www.bruntworkwear.com/Adam #BRUNTpodchime.com/AdamHomes.comoreillyauto.com/ADAMPluto.tvLife insurance is never cheaper than it is today.
