ALISON ROSEN: Wait, I have a question for you, then. Can you do the weird "Barely" voice?
KEVIN: [over the phone] Oh yeah, sure!
ALISON ROSEN: What is it?
KEVIN: [over the phone] Uh, it's from a viral video. There was this girl named Donna Goudeau, she got arrested three years ago, and the video came out recently and it went viral. Uh, she was tryin' to be hard, like she started crackin' up and was cryin' and she has a country drawl. She's from Texas, um, and she would say ... they asked her was she legally blind, and she said "Barely!"
ALISON ROSEN: Oh.
ADAM CAROLLA: Oh, right! Yeah!
BALD BRYAN: Y'know what, though? Big strike against Kevin, he said "They asked" and not "axed", so--
ADAM CAROLLA: No, he said "axed!"
ALISON ROSEN: He said "axed"--
BALD BRYAN: Oh, he did!
KEVIN: [over the phone] I said "axed!"
BALD BRYAN: Oh, I'm--
KEVIN: [over the phone] Hey, that was a clear "X!"
BALD BRYAN: Sorry, Kevin.
KEVIN: [over the phone] That was clearly an "X" ...
BALD BRYAN: Didn't mean to--
ADAM CAROLLA: Yeah, he definitely ... definitely did the "axe."
KEVIN: [over the phone] That's was clearly an "X!"
BALD BRYAN: Okay, okay.
ADAM CAROLLA: So he's got that going for him ... So Kevin, what do you propose that you do as our black correspondent from Florida?
[Bryan plays a clip of Doctor Drew saying "What I do now?"]
ADAM CAROLLA: Yeah, what you do now?
KEVIN: [over the phone] Oh ... What I, what I do now is--
ADAM CAROLLA: Mm hmm.
KEVIN: [over the phone] Anytime Alison has something black ... black-ish comin' up in her news--
ADAM CAROLLA: Mm hmm.
BALD BRYAN: Like a fantasy?
KEVIN: [over the phone] Gimmee a call.
ADAM CAROLLA: Mm hmm.
[Alison laughs]
KEVIN: [over the phone] I show up, ten-twenty minutes late--
ADAM CAROLLA: Mm hmm, right.
KEVIN: [over the phone] I show up a few minutes late, and I just came and answer any questions that you have on black culture.
ADAM CAROLLA: Mm hmm ... Alright!
KEVIN: [over the phone] I've been listening to the podcast--
JO KOY: So, are you gonna answer them with a black voice, mutha fucka?
ADAM CAROLLA: Mm hmm.
JO KOY: You sound whiter than Alison!
ADAM CAROLLA: So we can--
KEVIN: [over the phone] Come on, my nigga.
JO KOY: Ah, there's my mutha fucka!
BALD BRYAN: Don't know if we can air that ...
ADAM CAROLLA: We can ... So Kevin, we can count on you when we go to these topics?
KEVIN: [over the phone] Instantly! Anytime, anytime you ... Well, not always, but y'know, most of the time. Most of the time.
ALISON ROSEN: Kevin, I have a question for you then, since you're here.
KEVIN: [over the phone] Yes?
ALISON ROSEN: "Bae" ...
KEVIN: [over the phone] Uh huh.
ALISON ROSEN: Does it, we read that it stood for "Before Anyone Else," but then I heard that that's not true and it's just short for "babe." What is it?
KEVIN: [over the phone] It is, yeah. It's just short for "babe," somebody just decided to make it an acronym. I don't know what "acronym" means, by the way.
[everyone laughs]
BALD BRYAN: Wow! Wait--
ADAM CAROLLA: Ohhhh ...
BALD BRYAN: Good answer! Good, if you had a cousin named "Acronym," that would be even better!
[Adam laughs]
ADAM CAROLLA: Alright, Kevin?
KEVIN: [over the phone] Yes, sir!
ADAM CAROLLA: I'm sure there's people you need to wake up and tell to go to the bathroom, so I'm gonna let you get back to your job.
BALD BRYAN: Mm hmm.
[Kevin laughs]
KEVIN: [over the phone] Thank you.
ADAM CAROLLA: Alright, but we'll keep Kevin in mind ... Let's keep Kevin's number.
BALD BRYAN: Yeah.

Jo Koy and Michael DiTolla
Posted on: 11-17-2014 by: Chris Laxamana

Adam opens the show making fun of Dr. Drew, and he introduces a new segment, 'Tweet and a Miss'. Jo Koy is also in studio, and Adam asks his character Bung Lu Su to sign along to some classic kid show theme songs. Adam then jumps to the phones and talks with a caller who wants to be the podcast's black correspondent. He also chats with fans about businesses that exist to help other businesses, whether you should put money aside for college, and Steve-O's drunken appearance on 'Too Late with Adam Carolla'.
