I had an epiphanette!

    When I listened to that part of the podcast, it didn't seem as awkward as it probably felt to you. I thought it was funny.

  • Flatvurm

    For whatever reason, I laughed every time Alison said "asshole" in this video.

    You somehow have to learn to just roll with caROLLa.  He seems determined to fluster, discredit and undermine you and your best jokes on the podcast.  I think he is mildly threatened by you because you are a legitimate force on HIS podcast.  Or it's all for show and entertainment (his and/or ours).  Either way, ignore it and charge forth Alison.  We love you.  ROLL with it!

    I think your vlogs are most enjoyable, especially the Cheshire cat fade ins that seem to occur only at your boyfriend's apartment.

    I confess I don't find your "Zip it, C**t!" sign off on your news segments a real hoot, but maybe that's just me. I'm less offended by the vulgarity of the phrase than bored by the sheer repetition of it. But you seem invested in it, and Adam finds it delightful (and why not? It was his idea.) so do as you think best.

    I do think using it twice in each podcast is unnecessarily redundant. Maybe use it to end your second news segment, to mark the end of your contribution to the podcast, after which Adam does his plugs and wrap up.

    Try throwing a change up at the end of the first news segment. It doesn't have to be a gutbuster. Just different.
    Hell, "I'm Alison Rosen, reporting from Glendale." is at least in keeping with Dawson's mock-serious intro.

    Donny's mini-bikes indeed! <g></g>

    Hey Alison? This is going to sound really creepy, but about a year ago you had a guest on ARIYNBF with Yami. Her name was Robin. Do you still keep in touch with her? I was wondering because... (here is the creepy part) I still have the hots for her. I know this is silly, but I really really REALLY wanna ask her out on a date.

    He said he respected omelet chefs, which your boyfriend used to be.  While it's cool that you're trying to stick up for your man, I think you should just mark it down as Mission Accomplished at this point- you're not going to get much more specific than omelet chef.

    1. You're not the asshole.
    2. One of the best periods of my life I lived in a bland municipal flatblock apartment. Outside activities ruled. Plus, my shower was 10 feet from a 200 gallon water heater.

  • I'm sure someone's already told you this, but you kind of don't pronounce the -icular when you say "particular".  It's, like, really noticeable.

  • boinkity

    That's her Orange County accent. They all do that down there.

  • Chill out about the apartment, it ain't life or death.  Although I do know how you feel.  It ain't easy to hand all that $$$ over to some corporate apartment conglomerate.  But regardless (irregardless), you need a washing machine...and a dishwasher. 

  • my name

    I think it's a mistake to look to Adam Carolla for any kind of warm human connection.  He's funny sometimes, but I don't think he's a nice guy.  Or...maybe that's the best he can be -- a nice guy.  He will never be something more than a nice guy. 

  • ConfusedConfucius

    Always live life as if the next apartment you move into will be your last. That's what I always say. 

    No I don't. That's terrible advice.

  • boinkity

    I really really really love the Cheshire Alison beginning of this video. I wish you could do that all the time. In regards to Adam saying that you and your bf won't last, I was always under the impression that Adam said that to "bust your balls" even though you have those girly parts instead of balls. I didn't realize you took him at his word. I think you can be such a girl sometimes Alison!

  • mugby

    Yeah it's pretty rad. Alditionally, I can't wait for part 2.
