This is me, Craig Ferguson.

I'm inviting you to come and see my brand new comedy hour.

Well, actually, it's about an hour and a half,

and I don't have an opener because these guys cost money.

But what I'm saying is I'll be on stage for a while.

Anyway, come and see me live on the Pants on Fire Tour in your region.

Tickets are on sale now and we'll be adding more as the tour continues throughout

2025 and beyond. For a full list of dates, go to the Craig Ferguson show.com. See you on the road,

my dears. My name is Craig Ferguson. The name of this podcast is Joy. I talk to interest and people about what brings them happiness.

My guest today, everyone, is a gentleman who is outspoken. He knows what he thinks, and he's not afraid to tell you what he thinks. He's going to tell

you right now, he is the singular Adam Carolla. Enjoy it. All right, so we very briefly were talking about the right age to complain.

I feel like I'm 62, I'm going to be 63 very soon and I think that's, now I can really start to complain.

I can get people off my lawn, I can say that young people are ruined in the world

and that my hip hurts. And all three of those things are maybe true. Yeah, but the problem is

we've now enacted a sort of demographic for a complaint, which is if you're heterosexual male

and you have money and you're over

six foot and you're white, then who are you to complain? Which is, I feel like I don't want that

taken away from me just because of the color in my skin or just because of my bank account.

I feel like

complaining is, you know, maybe not uniquely American, but maybe we've perfected the art of it.

And I like the notion of having all these things going for me and still complaining.

I feel like it should give hope to other people.
