Some would say I’m not in this photo
Some compelling behind-the-scenes scuttlebutt about what happens before the show? Larry Miller and I discussed sectional couches. Apparently he’s not really a sectional couch man. The conversation threatened to send me into couch hell but I held fast and gave him no indication of the couch neurosis I harbor within. And then on air I aired a couple of my grievances with one Adam Carolla. These are:
1) he decreed that I would never like a car guy
2) he didn’t bring me to the Dr. Drew interview
And then later Seth Macfarlane joined the show and I think I might love him in the same way I love Dr. Drew. I’m so slutty with my love.
Also, I’m looking for a news tagline along the lines of, “I’m Alison Rosen, and that’s your news,” or something. As you’ll hear, I brought this up on the show and Adam suggested one so I used it. But if you guys tweet me suggestions I’ll use a different one every night until we find one that sticks.
Also, also? A clip from the show will be on AOL every night! How exciting is that? It’s exciting. In the first one I don’t say much but wow, my nose is sure featured. And if you enjoy seeing the show this way, streaming video is going to be made available starting Jan 31 (for a subscription fee). What my family doesn’t know is I’m going to force them to watch every show and offer a running critique in real time. (Of Adam and Bryan. I’m perfect.)
In other news, and I should probably break this little section out because it’s kind of off topic, occasionally you have a thought so cliche you can barely stand thinking it. So lately things with the family health situation which some of you know about and some of you don’t have been a little extra stressful/poignant and I’m unfortunately kind of like a stress sponge when really I should be a stress sand dollar or stress mollusk or something a little less permeable and anyway I actually found myself thinking the other day that I wish the podcast never ended. I wish it was a 24 hour podcast because when I’m in that world it’s a fairly defined role and the rewards are great and I enjoy it versus real life which is all messy and confusing. The end.
Have I mentioned I now end uncomfortable thoughts with The End?
The End.
Also I never add the accent to the word cliche. How cliche.
The End.
I thought that when Adam suggested, “Zip it, cunt”, he was directing that at you… so you using it wouldn’t make a whole lot of sense, but for some reason, I still liked the sound of it.
OK, so you like successful, thoughtful, well spoken, clean cut guys, and if they happen to like cars it’s cool. Can’t blame you for that. Adam did mention you to Dr. Drew, so that’s a start. One step at a time.
And no need to wait for the tweets. I have your tagline: “This has been the news with Alison Rosen. Now fuck off!”
haha! I like that one!!
Your new tagline…I’m Alison Rosen, and I did the news for a jigger of booze 😉
Of course Adam’s right. You would never like a “car guy.” Isn’t he?
I like your nose.
The end.
What’s with the damn hat? Is he hiding a barber visit gone awry?
Sorry – maybe I am a simpleton, but where is the cliche? I don’t see any banal nugget of faux wisdom that could be awkwardly shoehorned into a JLo, Katherine Heigle or Kate Hudson movie in that last paragraph.
This is such a good scene. The Ace World is burgeoning. He’s aligned with all the grooviest cats. And now you. I’m stoked. I’m down with 24-hour podcast too.
You might reconsider the accent. ALT+0233. Classy. French.
We know about Dr. Drew and Seth McFarlane. But what about Adam? Would you give it up for the Ace?
You are kicking ass on the AC podcast! I’m so happy you were picked! You play off of Adam perfectly!
Keep up the good work girl!
Hey Alison! In my opinion, you should end your news with a different send off on a daily basis. I think this is actually a smart idea because it could become something that a sponsor might want to pay $$ for you to mention their name. However, on days where no sponsors are paying you money, be creative with your send off. Maybe you can even say, “This has been the news with Alison Rosen, and this next comment is available for rent.” Maybe sponsors will get the idea offer some cash for you to say something witty about their company or one of their products.
The other thing… I have my first official criticism that I hope will be constructive and not hurt your feelings too much. You are the official Adam Carolla News Girl, and I cringed that you didn't know about the airport bombing in Moscow. That was all over the news during the day (it was even the first thing I heard when I woke up in the morning). Even though your segment is pretty laid back, you have to know what is going on in the news! It just makes you look like you aren't taking your position as a news journalist seriously enough. Yeah, I know! I'm sorry I made you cry, but tough love, baby!

Alison, you are such a bright addition to the Ace broadcasting network, so sharp and smart and funny. You go girl!
