Summary
Dr. Drew kicks off the show by talking about his recent trip to Poland, while Adam compares mass immigration to invasive species disrupting ecosystems. They react to a classic 13-year-old clip from their own show, stress the importance of defending freedoms, and cover a new report on cannabis risks for youth—contrasting society's views on nicotine and weed. Adam opens up about hating being the boss, why most bosses are unreasonable, and rants about smooth-talkers who never deliver—citing a recent Obama interview as exhibit A.
