Sleepless in Finland: Reclining Seats, HOA Drama & Trashy Behavior
Fresh off an 11-hour flight with zero sleep, Adam records his first Intrusive Thoughts episode abroad—from a cottage in Finland. Running on pure delusion (and pear martini memories), he tackles listener dilemmas ranging from airplane reclining etiquette to nightmare neighbors who want to sue over toddler footsteps. Adam shares why noise complaints against kids are absurd, dishes out some savage HOA hot takes, and spirals about the first time he ever saw someone litter. Plus, we get an update on his reading glasses hunt, a voicemail about discount-store finds, and the behind-the-scenes story of why the podcast rebrand finally made sense.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Closet Purgatory and Other Life Lessons
Adam’s DIY era is here: goodbye tacky microwave, hello self-installed range hood and a custom steel backsplash. Along the way, he gets sidetracked by water bottles, butterflies, and closet purgatory—but also dives into listener questions about judgment, clutter, and relationships that don’t go as planned. It’s messy, heartfelt, and very Adam.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From Mars to Music with Betty Who
Adam is joined by friend and superstar singer-songwriter Betty Who — as they dive into her evolution as an artist, her confidence, and fully embracing who she is. They swap short-lived reality TV experiences, plot Betty’s inevitable Great British Bake Off debut, and share chaos from Adam’s Mars reality show before Betty tells an iconic tour bus story involving Jennifer Lopez. From career highs to the very real fear of bad tattoos — and yes, plenty of talk about their shared love of dogs (and mutual dislike of dog parks) — it’s an hour of friendship, laughs, and unfiltered honesty.See Betty Who with the LA Phil on August 30, 2025, at The Ford. Tickets available at www.theford.com.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A Hidden Toaster and A Sad Microwave
Description: One man. One microwave. Zero adult supervision. With JP out of town, Adam goes full chaos: removing the kitchen microwave solo, hiding the toaster in a closet, and nearly signing the lease on his new med spa (plumbing included, thanks to Bob the 80-year-old real estate king). Listener texts and voicemails deliver everything from pistachio meltdowns to parking lot disasters, and Adam has strong feelings about floss, phone calls in public restrooms, and sock slippage. Text or call 310-909-7117 to share your own intrusive thoughts. He’s listening. And judging. But mostly listening.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nipple to Knee
Adam is flying solo this week and fully in his Intrusive Thoughts groove. He starts by reacting to the shocking news that The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is ending (with a little side-eye toward Jimmy Fallon), then launches into a tale of cracked sinks, failed DIY “sink art,” and the surprisingly perfect space he just found for his new medical spa—thanks to a very shady “massage business.” But the best part? Adam ends the episode with an absolutely outrageous story about his final Olympic drug test, complete with “nipple-to-knee” rules, a full bladder, and a bathroom emergency that turned into the most humiliating goodbye imaginable.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
