Raised by Loveline, co-parented by Ace and Doctor Drew,

when his life gets all messed up,

Adam's rats, they pull him through lost in a sea of discs and tapes,

archiving everything in the world of Carola.

He's a super fan

Get it out

Yeah

Get it on

What the move

Get it out

Yeah Get it out.

Yeah, get it on.

Hey, everybody, Superfan.

Giavonne here. Welcome to Classic Love Line episode 2285.

Patton Oswalt and Brian Possein, July 1st, 2004, Thursday night show. Sourcing this one is a Tucker stream recording. It's 100% complete. Medium audio upgrade. Pat and Brian returned for their third and final appearance of their classic Love Line Trilogy during the Adam Crolla era. Three appearances altogether, no separate appearances without each other. It's perhaps the funniest of their three visits and one of the highest rated shows in Loveline Tapes history. The Pat and Brian trilogy are among my favorites, things I've listened to over a dozen times each episode throughout the years. Just great stuff in here, stuff you don't hear any other episode, or stuff you do hear that's so refined and made even funnier, honing many concepts and recurring joke ideas that come up to the show. Very rewarding if you're a long-time listener. An update on the ex-Josh collection. I've been posting all the updates on patreon.com slash Giovanni. There's a link there for a Slack channel. If you want up-to-date, like up-to-the-minute updates and me bitching about you know, tape transferring tapes for 24 hours a day and how exhausting it is or whatever.

Also what the progress is, what's on what tape? Asking questions, hey, what shape should I put out next? What should I do? Come there, sign up. If you want to go to Slack, feel free. If not, don't worry about it. It's not jumping. It's very dead. But if you want to be there for the tape updates, that's the fastest place to get them. Polished, finished updates, links all go up on Patreon.

Of course, they're posted to Love Line tapes and YouTube and my website all publicly for free for everyone, all at the same time. No waiting. No bullshit. You're not paying for Loveline. You never have to. You never should. So we've been able to make some killer progress. We now know the week beginning of August 8th, 1999, starting with episode 1006, a Sunday night show with no guest, we presume, and then 1007 with no guests, we presume. Unclear. Ricky Rackman co-hosting that whole week. So 1008, August 10th, episode we've been missing all this time, cast of Detroit Rock City, just James Debello and Sam Huntington, Mimu Siku from Jungle to Jungle, and James Debello from cabin, the most assholeish of the guys going to the cabin, the one with the gun. Ricky Rackman co-hosting. If you love Rackman, great for you. Cool piece of history you have. I'm really glad we have it. No idea on the quality. I haven't been able to listen to any of the content of these just to make sure they're preserved correctly and saved. I don't actually get to enjoy anything. Apparently there was a really cool call from a psychic or a girl who has a psychic mom or something. I haven't been able to listen to that one yet. I'm hoping to listen very soon. It sounds awesome. It looks like 1006 and 1007 may be lost forever. Somehow they didn't

get captured or maybe Josh was giving us a little bit of his own opinion about Ricky

Rackman and eventually just gave it and started recording it. Beginning on August 1st,

episode 1001, that is the episode where they are back from the celebrity

baseball game. And I believe the episode 1,000 before, yes, 729, also lost. So we have both of those.

No guest episodes. 10.01 is the one where he's back from the celebrity baseball game. We had
