Artie Lange

Please bring them back." No, I mean the black snap back with the white Dopey logo embroi- embroidered on it.

Adam Fitzsimmons says, "Artie Lange, worth traveling long distances for." Indeed.

Kicking Wang, "Love Velvet Underground.

Used to always listen to that song when I first started shooting dope, LOL.

Damn.

I wanna talk today, I mean, later, we've got hours, right? So, and we're just getting the show started, but I'm a big Artie Lange fan.

Love Artie.

And, uh, you know him decent- Sure, yeah ... or more, more than decent? Yeah, I mean, you know, he, he- Better than you know Seth? Oh.

[laughs]

"Ask Jim Norton, Artie Lange, Eleanor Kerrigan-"

[laughs]

"...

Let's get more of those.

But by the way, it's like, uh, I'm not sure if you, uh, know the reference here, MP, but there was Artie Lange, Norm Macdonald, and then who's that guy that was on, um, that directed the movie Dirty Work?

Oh man, I don't-

The guy who, like, died in a hotel room 'cause he hit his fucking head.

Bob Saget.

Oh, Bob Saget.

Artie Lange is a notorious heroin user.

He outlived both the guys that don't do drugs that were his best friends.

And a special thanks to our patrons, whose monthly gift puts them at producer status.

Join me in two weeks, where I'd like to tell you a story.

How about that? All right.

Uh, oh, our good friend Artie Lange's got a book, Crash and Burn.

You can pre-order it now on Amazon.

You click through, uh, adamcarolla.com. He's coming up on the show, uh, is it next week? Or just coming up soon to promote, so, uh, we got that as well.

right.

These are all things Artie has said on stage.

And now I'm putting the date of the joke along with how much it got from the crowd from 1 to 10, 10 being the best.

I like that.

So

factor that in.

And listen, while I'm doing all these, I just sit back and I just say that in my, you know, the first part of it in my mind to just like watch Artie on stage.

What would he say?
