Teresa Strasser On 'Exploiting My Baby'
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailyOn today's podcast we welcome Emmy-winning writer Teresa Strasser to discuss her new book, "Exploiting My Baby." You may know Teresa as the former co-host of "The Adam Carolla Show," where she was known for being funny, smart, and always fast on her feet. She is also a contributor to The Los Angeles Times and a columnist for the Los Angeles Jewish Journal. Teresa gave me tips on exploiting my baby (my wife is pregnant) -- and on channeling my "inner Hugh Grant" (this apparently involves rubbing feet and running out to purchase fast food in the middle of the night). She also offered advice ...
Adam Carolla Tops List of Favorite 'Matt Lewis Show' Podcasts of 2010
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailyIt's hard to believe the year is almost over, and it's even harder to believe that we're about to celebrate the first anniversary of the podcast. Early on, I was a bit too ambitious -- hoping to do a show a day. (That lasted about six months, until we settled into a more realistic schedule of two to three shows a week). To be sure, we've had some terrific guests this year (and the year isn't over yet). Picking my favorite shows wasn't easy. I racked my brain to come up with my top 10 choices. Note: Several of my regular guests, like Politico's Shira Toeplitz, former White House press ...
Podcast: Adam Carolla on 'The Matt Lewis Show'
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailyOn today's podcast, we are honored to welcome comedian Adam Carolla, author of "In Fifty Years We'll All Be Chicks." This was a special one for me. I've been a fan of Carolla for years. He is one of the few people on the planet who can make me laugh out loud. Back in the mid-to-late 90s, I discovered Adam's humor when he co-hosted the popular call-in radio show, "Love Line." Today, The Adam Carolla Podcast is one of the most successful on iTunes (listening to his podcast helped inspire me to start my podcast). On today's show, Adam and I discuss taxes, fatherhood, and podcasting. (Note: ...
Manny Pacquiao's Sparring Partner Urbano Antillon on Adam Carolla

Although former interim world champ, Urbano Antillion (27-1, 20 knockouts), of Maywood, Calif., is very focused on his May 8 bout opposite undefeated, NABF lightweight (135 pounds) titlist, Brandon Rios (24-0-1, 17 KOs), of Oxnard, Calif., he took time with FanHouse to address some interesting comments directed at Manny Pacquiao (pictured at right) by radio and television personality Adam Carolla. Antillon sparred with Pacquiao in preparation for bouts against ...
Adam Carolla's Health Care Rx: Drug Company Greed Is Good
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailyComedian Adam Carolla (formerly Dr. Drew's co-host on "Love Line" and Jimmy Kimmel's on Comedy Central's "The Man Show") now has one of the most popular podcasts in America. It consistently makes iTunes' Top 10 list. Carolla discussed health care reform on his Sept. 9 podcast. His friend and guest Bryan Bishop, who has cancer, was talking about his recent treatments, when Carolla chimed in with this: Well, I know we're in the middle of this health care debate. And I know the big drug companies have all of a sudden become Beelzebub. And I don't know if there's a way to balance this out, or ...
Adam Carolla's 'The Hammer' Is a Hilarious Sports Comedy With a Heart
By Michael David Smith - AOL NewsLoyal readers will remember that a few months ago, I expressed my skepticism about the new Adam Carolla boxing movie, The Hammer, which I hadn't seen at the time.Well, now I've seen it on DVD, and I must confess that I was wrong. It's hilarious and surprisingly touching, and Carolla, the writer, producer and star, doesn't just know boxing but knows how to present boxing on film. I liked it a lot.The plot -- washed up guy gets one last chance in the ring and in romance -- isn't exactly original, but the dialogue is, and the acting is first rate. I like Carolla as a boxer, and I like him as a ...

New Adam Carolla Boxing Movie 'The Hammer' Doesn't Look Promising
By Michael David Smith - AOL NewsUPDATE: Five months later, I admit I'm wrong.Boxing, more than any other sport, has been fodder for some of the great American films, from Requiem for a Heavyweight to Rocky to Raging Bull to Million Dollar Baby. This, I'd wager, will not be one of the great American films:That was the trailer for The Hammer, the new boxing movie starring Adam Carolla. I like Carolla, but I agree with Sports by Brooks that he's at his best when he's working with a partner, be it Jimmy Kimmel or Dr. Drew Pinsky. As the star in a film, well, it doesn't look promising. Still, it is a boxing movie, and Carolla ...
