About

ADAM CAROLLA is best known as a comedian, actor, radio personality, television host and NY Times best-selling author. He currently hosts The Adam Carolla Show, which holds the Guinness Book of World Records title for “most downloaded podcast," and was recently a star on NBC's Celebrity Apprentice.  His latest book, Not Taco Bell Material, was released in June 2012 from Random House Publishing.

 

Adam started The Adam Carolla Show podcast with only a computer and a microphone from his home office in February 2009.  That year the podcast was named iTunes #1 Podcast of 2009, and it has only grown since then.  The podcast receives more than five million downloads a month and has been featured in Fast Company Magazine, Entrepreneur, The New York Times, and The Los Angeles Times. Adam’s immediate success prompted him to launch an entire online network, ACE Broadcasting in February 2010, which produces many of iTunes' top podcast programming.

 

Adam became a New York Times best-selling author when his book, In 50 Years We'll All Be Chicks, topped the charts for ten weeks. The audio version went straight to the #1 position on iTunes and remains there today. His new e-book, Rich Man Poor Man, is now available on iTunes.

Before running his online empire, Adam hosted The Adam Carolla Show on CBS radio stations in Los Angeles, Portland and Las Vegas. The four-hour weekday morning program was syndicated in several major markets, including Seattle, Sacramento and Fresno.

 

Adam has also starred on ABC's hit reality series Dancing with the Stars, hosted Comedy Central's Too Late with Adam Carolla and starred in TLC's The Adam Carolla Project, which chronicled the renovation and subsequent sale of his boyhood home.

 

Following brief stints as a skilled carpenter and boxing trainer, Adam began his career in radio after answering an ad seeking a boxing instructor to train then radio personality Jimmy Kimmel of KROQ's Kevin and Bean Show in Los Angeles. He eventually joined the show's repertoire as “Mr. Birchum,” a wood shop teacher. Adam’s success on KROQ led to a hosting job on the nationally syndicated radio program Loveline with Dr. Drew Pinsky. MTV developed a television version of the show, which was co-hosted by Adam and Dr. Drew for five seasons (1996-2000). The duo also authored The Dr. Drew and Adam Book: A Survival Guide to Life and Love.

 

With his partners Daniel Kellison and Jimmy Kimmel, Adam heads Jackhole Industries, and created and starred in two hit Comedy Central shows, The Man Show and Crank Yankers.

 

A native of Southern California, Adam currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Lynette, and their twins.

    Vintage Carolla

    by 147aaa on 4/4/11The Pageant - St Louis

    Everything you would expect from Adam. He was very funny and had us rolling especially in the first half. It did feel a bit scripted, I do like him better when he is just ad libbing.

    Adam in St Louis

    by andjo on 4/4/11The Pageant - St Louis

    It was not as fun to someone that listens to the podcasts everyday and heard all the same stories. What kind of new material can I expect when you listen to someone 5 days a week for 90 mins a day. I wasn't disappointed, it was what I expected. It was nice to see in Live. I thought it would have been better if he would had a guest..even a local to interview, we have local talent that would be interesting for him to interview. I think he does best when he doesnt know what he is going to say..

    Adam Carolla delivers again.

    by osculant on 4/4/11The Pageant - St Louis

    I drove down from Milwaukee to see this show (Adam hasn't come to the midwest in a long time!) even though I saw him in Chicago twice and will see him in Milwaukee. Adam personalizes every show, I heard a 'new' story (new to his act) and saw some classic material. The screen was placed weird, as he uses it in his act but he had to look up and behind him to see it. He had only one show, as opposed to other sell-out venues where they book multiple shows, so he was in a great mood and very willing to sign and photo-op after the show. The venue was clean, decent drink prices and very good selection of beer on tap.

    Uninspired

    by CharlieWeaver on 4/4/11The Pageant - St Louis

    I am big fan of Adam's podcast. This show wasn't half as good as his worst podcast. The show seemed stale and was just mildly funny and entertaining and really lacked energy. Additionally, the seating couldn't have been less comfortable. The chairs butt up against each other and there's no room to move. It was just an odd experience. I've never been to the Pageant and expected great things. Overall, it was a pretty disappointing evening. I left before the show was over and at least I was able to get out of the parking lot with relative ease.

    Adam Carolla - Very Forgettable

    by ComedySeeker on 4/4/11The Pageant - St Louis

    Terrible material with homophobic and racist themes/comments. Walked out after first 15 minutes.

    Yaaawwnn

    by Sizle on 4/4/11The Pageant - St Louis

    Don't waste your money. Carrolla' made it clear that the best part of the Man Show was Jimmy Kimmel. Sorry, Adam but I hardly even laughed. We left early. We didn't care how much money you made each year of your life since 1980....yaaaaaawwn!!!!

    Needs an update

    by mynameisearlgrey on 3/31/11Cobb's Comedy Club - San Francisco

    It's really 2.5 stars. I had high hopes, but was disappointed. The material was pretty stale - he regurgitated his story of how he got into the business which anyone who listens to his radio show has heard ad nauseum.

    You could do better and I don"t even know you

    by websterdog on 2/9/11Uptown Theatre Napa - Napa

    We left at the break after an hour of uninspired "comedy". We go to a comedy show a month and have never felt compelled to leave. Easy to please and like all varieties of comedy. Wasn't bad, wasn't offensive, wasn't clever, funny or interesting.

    Adam, you gets yr money's worth o fun.

    by Textike on 2/8/11Uptown Theatre Napa - Napa

    Classic Ace man, felt he could have ditched the laser pointer, couldn't see it anyhow and would have loved to have Donnie introduced/spotlighted. Adam was very nice after, didn't feel like he rushed people in the autograph line, seemed glad to interact w fans.

    The Aceman live

    by FieldMarshal on 2/7/11Uptown Theatre Napa - Napa

    If you're expecting a repeat of his podcast then you'll be disappointed. The show was great - all new material & a world premiere video! You'll see Ace applying his social commentary on various observations he's made in day to day life - nothing is safe!

    Adam Carolla is Hilarious!!!

    by Dublife on 2/7/11Uptown Theatre Napa - Napa

    Adam Carolla put on a great show 2/4/11 at the Uptown Theatre in down Napa (aka: fortifide wine country)!!! For anyone that is a fan of the Man Show, Love Line, Crank Yankers, or his Pod Cast, you must see his live show. Also, for a good laugh buy his book, "In Fifty Years We'll All Be Chicks".

    Adam Carolla

    by trigity on 2/6/11Uptown Theatre Napa - Napa

    I'm so glad that the uptown theatre is pulling in great acts such the comedy of Adam Carolla. I listen to his pod cast every morning on my way to work. It was incredible to see him live. This a really cool venue and I love that it's in Napa.

    Great show but...

    by AriesA on 2/6/11Uptown Theatre Napa - Napa

    Adam delivered and was as funny as ever. Hysterical ... His tech detail could use some work... But it wasn't a problem. Theatre personnel needs to get a system in place .. It was extremely distracting that they were still seating people 10-15 minutes into Adams act. These were mostly people who were busy drinking in the lobby. Too rude to take their seats before Showtime, which was past 8:00 anyway. Then at intermission it was repeated.. As well as guests falling and spilling drinks in the theatre. Some drunk blonde idiot spilled wine on my husband because she couldn't walk

    Adam carolla is the best out there right now!

    by barnzilla on 2/6/11Uptown Theatre Napa - Napa

    Buy his book, listen to his podcast, go to his web site. I have been a fan for years and I can tell you his show is some of his best work. You will laugh and think from start to finish.
