If you don't know, Dr. Drew had a sex and comedy show with funny man Adam Carolla on rock and roll radio station KROQ in Los Angeles, listened to by a lot of young people. It was called Loveline and consisted largely of underage high school kids calling in with their often kinky stories of sexual activity, supposedly seeking sexual advice but often just trying to say outrageous things. Carolla provided the comedy and goofed on them while Dr. Drew played the straight man, pretending to be the serious parent who deplored the out of control sexuality like high school girls claiming they were making it with their younger sister, the very activity that made the show popular and that paid Dr. Drew's salary.
