Welcome to Krola classics. I'm your host super fan Giovanni. This is the podcast where we play the best moments highlights and fan selected clips from all 16 years of the Adam Curolla Show.

This upcoming Sunday will be the 17th anniversary of the first recording of the Adam Carolla show.

When they switched over from the radio show to the podcast, they had less than a weekend to get everything ready to go, get everything launched.

Myself and Mike Choffie did a bunch of stuff behind the scenes.

Donnie was able to turn on the mics.

Kind of.

An Adam recorded that very uncertain, short, strangely formatted introduction to the ACS that

everyone heard.

With over 5 million downloads and excitement at the highest it was ever for the podcast,

it's a really interesting time to reflect back on all 17 years of the show.

Now with over 4,000 episodes, with multiple different eras of the show, the original run with

just Adam, with Teresa and Brian coming weekly for the day and date news format, then switching

back over to the radio show format. Then Teresa left. Then there was the Allison era. Then Gina

joined the show after Allison left. Then it was the Gina era, then Gina joined the show after Allison left,

then it was the Gina era of the show with Brian, and then the whole COVID era of the show

doing remotely, and then Gina and Brian came back to the studio, and now the latest era

without any co-hosts. No newsgirl, no sound guy, sometimes mayhem. We do have a separate

podcast feed titled Cruel Classics. You can find it through Podcast 1.plus. If you sign up over there, Podcast 1.plus, you'll find the ad-free archives exclusively available for all of Curl Classics.
