Adam asks comedian David Cross about his recent visit to London. David says he was once there for six months, and often travels back and forth. They talk about the shrillness of the American accent, and how a British accent makes you sound smart even when you're a dumbass.

Adam also talks about a naked guy he saw shaving in Las Vegas, and tells a story involving Ray from his bachelor party in Lake Arrowhead.

He points out that if these people didn't write snarky comments about it, no one would be writing about it period. Adam agrees, saying it's 'weird to dedicate your life to other people.' David points out 'it's not even criticism. It's just making obvious fun of an obvious thing to make fun of, and that's all you do.' The guys then spend time talking about their relationship with their fathers, quickly transitioning into a conversation about their sisters. Adam reflects that growing up in his house was just like growing up every man for himself-his sister was just another person trapped in the same situation he was. David talks about his trailer park sister, whom he has nothing in common with. He then talks about Thanksgiving dinner with the family, and bailing his sister out of prison.

Since Adam is doing shows in Texas, Paul Gilmartin is filling in as host. Guesting on the show is Jimmy Pardo, but Jimmy points out that normally Paul is the guest on his show. Paul says his plan for the show is to take calls discussing Awkward Sexual Moments. He tells his own story from his teen years, and Jimmy chimes in with his. Jumping into your calls, stories vary from a guy who gruesomely lost his virginity, and a guy who dealt with a woman who had bowel control issues. Overall, Paul and Jimmy are horrified by some of the stories, wishing they were 'more fumbly' and 'less vomitty.' In the second half of the show, Paul opens by contemplating where in time he would go if he had a time machine. He starts discussing guitar player Django Reinhardt, an incredible musician who played with two fingers. They also talk about Tony Iommi, who lost part of his fingers in a sheet metal accident, but was inspired by Reinhardt to keep playing.

Adam and Dr. Drew open by discussing the recent appearance of Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler on Adam's show. Dr. Drew explains how when they first met he was a mess, but that he responded extremely well to treatment. Adam also shares his thoughts on Lindsay Lohan and says it's tough to change when you're young. Dr. Drew points to Jack Osbourne as an example of someone young who it did work on, but he agrees that most young people just don't get it. Adam asks Dr. Drew for advice on how to handle his daughter, who is already harboring strong dislike toward him. Drew suggests that part of it is genetic, but says he thinks something interesting will come of the relationship; and not necessarily what Adam thinks it will be. Adam also talks about doing activities with both his twins, but rarely getting one-on-one time. Dr. Drew points out that twins often define themselves by what their other twin is not. They then go on a tangent about the clown painting in Adam's bathroom. The first call of the day deals with a 40-year-old who lacks the drive to be in a relationship. Adam discusses the trend of people coming from good environments that still don't want to be in relationships, and they both agree that it stems from prolonged adolescence. Dr. Drew tells a story about visiting The Wrigley Mansion, where beautiful marble was recently discovered beneath the shag carpet. It reminds Adam of an old pair of leather shoes he bought 10 years ago and still stores in a box even though they're ugly as hell. He goes on a huge rant, wanting people to apologize to him for shushing him when he said the shoes were ugly, or that a particular band or song sucked. Adam also wants apologies for all the shitty promotions that he and Drew had to endure when they worked so closely all the time. Dr. Drew tells a story of how he and Adam had to endure Media Training, even though Adam said it was a waste of time. Adam and Drew were forced to sit through fake interviews, and Adam said nothing until he eventually let loose on the 'non-talent' and 'non-comedy' people that tried to dictate what he was supposed to say. Jumping back into calls, Adam and Dr. Drew give a young listener some advice on how to approach women. Another caller is a guy whose wife is into rough sex, but he doesn't know how to initiate it. A second question from the same caller deals with anal sex, which leads Dr. Drew to discuss the dangers of Anal Cancer. He and Adam talk about Farrah Fawcett, and expand into other celebrity deaths that should have led to important discussions, but instead the media focused on other things. All of this sends Adam into another rant about how parents need to take care of their kids, and even Drew gets fired up about this. Adam very quickly shuffles through a couple more calls involving cheating, and a couple that is no longer sexually active. To the latter, Adam suggests having a couple glasses of wine and getting it on, but Dr. Drew suggests getting proper medical evaluation if her husband is not physically able to perform. Get ready for a new season of Celebrity Rehab this December.

Adam sits down one-on-one with documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock. Morgan compliments Adam on the comfortable couches, and they compare the interview experience to doing an episode of Jay Leno or David Letterman. Morgan also talks a bit about his latest film, 'Freakonomics,' based on the best selling book. Adam asks Morgan about some of his favorite facts from the movie, and tries to figure out ways to incentivise Donny to move his bronco out of the garage. The guys chat about their favorite documentaries, including The Kid Stays in the Picture, Overnight, and The King of Kong. Adam tells a story about rushing to see the latter documentary before meeting with the director, and being blown away by how unprepared everyone else was in the meeting. Adam jokes about preparedness in show biz, and mentions Jon Stewart's recent appearance on Bill O'Reilly's show. Speaking more about Freakonomics, the film is broken down into different chapters, each directed by an all-star documentarian. Morgan is reminded of another chapter in the book, which deals with your child's success in life based on how you name them. They talk about the experiments with various resumes, and also offer case studies about people with unusual names. Adam takes a couple listener calls, the first of which asks Morgan about his involvement with The Simpsons. Morgan talks about getting a call and thinking it was a prank, but clearly he was excited to be part of the 20th Anniversary special. Another caller inquires about a Super Size Me sequel, and Morgan considers how much weight he'd have to gain for it to be worth it. They get to talking about Robert DeNiro's weight gain for Raging Bull, and eventually talk about their favorite scenes from Goodfellas, as well as discuss the new HBO series, Boardwalk Empire. Adam asks Morgan about his LA schedule, and Morgan says it's been almost all promotions for Freakonomics. He explains that the movie is available online, and also on demand; in conjunction with a limited theatrical release. They talk about some of the films they've seen recently on the big screen, and also analyze the communal experience of film, theater and sports, as opposed to seeing it alone. Towards the end of the interview, Adam talks about interviewing Mike Tyson while he was promoting his documentary last year. He jokes about the difficulties of wrangling him and the filmmaker, and also wonders if Tyson is a sympathetic figure or not. Morgan cracks a joke about Tyson owning a tiger, and before long Adam and Morgan imagine being mauled by animals and becoming part of the food chain. Check out Freakonomics via iTunes or onDemand.

Adam finds out more about the documentary process, and the guys talk about some of their favorite baseball moments. Ken says it's crucial to tell a story when you make a documentary, and especially with baseball it has to be more than just statistics or who won. After some discussion about the debilitating effects of steroids, Adam talks about his own career playing baseball in high school. This leads him into a story about filling in for Tommy Lasorda to be the Grand Marshall of Mardi Gras, and also an in depth comparison of baseball to softball. Adam finds out more about a 'normal day' for Ken Burns, which seems to revolve around either being on the road promoting, or locked in an edit bay 'trying to make something better out of the footage.' Ken discusses how unique it is to have a series on PBS where you can have over two hours of uninterrupted content, and talks about how they raise money and research their topics. They also talk about some of the more complex themes that Ken has had to discuss over the years, and the 'vow of poverty' he took to become a documentarian. One of Ken's upcoming projects is about prohibition, but Ken says it's really about right wing single issue campaigns that grow out of control.

Ken also offers a reason for the world's obsession with alcohol, and relates everything to escapism.

Greg professes right from the get-go he's not a huge football fan, but Jimmy Kimmel's friend Brad Mulcahey is sitting on the couch and much more into sports. They go through a brief recap of the day's games, and Brad also talks about his history with gambling and relationship with Jimmy and Cousin Sal.

Glen asks Adam about his recent appearance on the Savage Love Podcast. Host Dan Savage was asking Adam about threesomes, and Glen says that Adam avoided the question. Adam just wanted to restate the point that if a woman is asking for a threesome, she is essentially saying the relationship is on its way out. There are obviously exceptions to every rule, but often times we need to rely on generalizations when we don't understand something fully. Glen plays a more recent song, which was inspired by a story he heard from fellow musician Ben Folds. Adam compliments them both on their smart lyrics, and ability to tell great stories about little slices of life. Keeping with the musician talk, Adam recalls his experience with the band Korn, and Glen talks about John Mayer staying with him before his career really took off.

Comedian/Roastmaster Jeff Ross then comes out to help with the news. Isaac Hayes chimes in with some thoughts on the most recent Comedy Central Roast, and Adam talks about his interview with Isaac just before he died. Jeff talks a bit more about the roast and writing his own material, and even tells a few racially charged jokes that never made it to air. Adam makes fun of David Hasselhoff's hair, and asks the ladies in the audience why men have to shave everything now. In the news, Larry King may be leaving CNN, but he's working with Ryan Seacrest to relaunch his radio career. Adam says that Seacrest doesn't play an instrument so he shouldn't get as much play as he does. Speaking of ladies men, Jeff talks about going to a John Mayer concert, and having John say he was going back to Jeff's place to get high after the show. They talk a bit about medical marijuana, and Adam tells the story of getting high at the Sex and the City 2 premiere and getting stopped by the TMZ paparazzi. Also in the new, nearly 90,000 prison inmates were reportedly sexually abused last year-often by the guards themselves. Adam offers commentary on the commitment of 'cornholing' and was surprised to hear that many of the guards were females. The gang also talks about Jewish kids being sent to summer camp, and Attorneys General trying to discontinue the Craig's List adult services section. After an animated segment of Adam and Bryan Cranston pitching a film called 'Gay-Eye,' everyone plays a round of Totally Topical Tivo Trivia. Once a winner is named, Donny helps bring up a bunch of old photos of Early Adam (sorry kiddies, you'll have to see him live if you want to see the pics!) Adam goes into more detail about the 'never ending love affair' between his parents, and rants at his family for always looking bored when taking pictures. Wrapping up the show, Adam talks about his Catholic Little Brother Nate, and his fat pasty Russian friend named Tim.
