Adam Carolla

Adam Carolla is an American radio and television personality, actor, and writer, perhaps best known as one of the original co-hosts, along with Jimmy Kimmel, of the satirical basic cable comedy series The Man Show (1999-2003), and as a co-host (with Dr. Drew Pinsky) of the nationally syndicated radio program Loveline (1995-2005). Carolla was a frequent guest host or co-host on The Howard Stern Show during its terrestrial radio years, and in 2005 became one of a select group of regionally syndicated hosts selected by CBS Radio (formerly Infinity Broadcasting) to replace Stern's morning show. The Adam Carolla Show ran on the West Coast of the United States, from January 2006 to February 2009. When the show was cancelled after its home station, 97.1 KLSX, flipped formats, Carolla immediately began his own daily podcast, The Adam Carolla Podcast. Initially a barebones one-on-one interview format with guests, the show was retooled in 2010 to be more like the former morning radio show, and renamed "The Adam Carolla Show" to reflect this change. From its start, the podcast has been a downloading success on iTunes.
