Adam Devine: BDE & Pitch Perfect (FBF)

down with me today, and discuss the scandal surrounding the infidelity in your marriage.

“How many times did you cheat with women that you met on Instagram?”

It's Adam Divine, not Adam Levine, thank fucking God. This is the thing on Instagram, everyone thinks that I'm like six feet. And then they meet me in person, and they're like, "Why are you so short?"

And I'm like, "First of all, you're not that bad.

Yeah, you're probably at least size." What? You're a great size. But I'm like, that's the first thing people say, and then look at where your foot is dangling right now.

I have long legs. Yeah, and see, look at one of my little... No, you're taller than me, but my legs are long. Yes, true. That's fair to say, right?

Yeah, I've got a weird shaped, like my torso's the exact same length as my legs. And you do this. Like that's not even like flexibility, that's just... Sweet. Yeah, but see how that was kind of...

I'm gonna call her daddy. Yeah, that was... Wait, that's great. That's a good trick on me to start asking people, also you did that very... Yeah, it's like, do you do that option?

It's on my whole career's based on me doing that. Like you're a physical comedian and like, no, my body's shaped weird. It's funny, you look at me and you laugh, because you're like, "That's off." What's going on? It's like a human cartoon.

No. I think you look great today. Thank you. I wear my fancy jacket. It looks really nice.

I asked my wife, I'm like, "Shut up, I can do dress nice," and she's like, "No, you could be casual." And then I wore what I was wearing, and she was like, "Maybe no, where's something else?" I would put a jacket on. No, I think you look great.

I love your watch. The whole thing's going great. Thanks, thanks. Okay, so we're going to get into it. Okay.

Okay. Here we go. I'm going to just do this little intro that the world needs. Okay. Adam, welcome to call her daddy.

Okay. Oh, I thought we were doing the Adam Levine bit.

No, but I thought for a second, you're going to say, "Thank you."

I don't know why, and that was like so creepy when the straw. I'm going to start over. Here we go. Adam, welcome to call her daddy. Thank you.

I just have to tell you that I was a huge maroon five fan, and I'm really glad that you decided to sit down with me today and talk about the scandal surrounding the infidelity in your marriage.

“How many times did you cheat on your wife with women that you met on Instagram?”

Zero time. It's Adam Devine, not Adam Levine. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Adam, welcome to call her daddy. Thank you. One fucking letter. One letter. It's so close.

I actually, I met Adam Levine once at a party, and yeah, I'm cool like that. And it was a whole Halloween party. I was dressed as a wizard, so it wasn't me being cool at all. Like a wizard with a wizard staff of beer cans, taped together. And I go up to him.

I was all excited and was like, Adam Levine. I'm Adam Devine. He's like, yeah, no, I know. And I'm like, I get Adam Levine all the time on Twitter, where people are like, @me, Adam Devine, but then say, "It's so hot, shirtless singing."

I just went to his concert. And I'm like, it happens to me all the time.

“I'm sure you get me sometimes to on Twitter, right?”

And he goes, literally never.

Literally never. I'm like, you're like, okay, never, not even one time. And he's like, mm-hmm. So he is a fucking dick. No, I love that.

Sort of habit. Like, but also invite me back to the Halloween party. Right, you're like, I will come back as a wizard. Do you think, actually, people thought that it was you in that situation? People did.

Like, it wasn't. So I like, post, I would never, I'm not big into like inserting myself into someone else's drama. I'm like, this guy was already going through it. Yeah. And so I was like, steering clear.

And then like, like, news organizations. I forget what it was like, it was like the Baltimore, like, their local news. Their headline was Adam Devine cheats on pregnant wife and said Adam Devine. And then I was getting so many people that were just DM me, me being, I'll fucking dare you.

And then you look at their page.

They have no, they are not workaholic fans. They have not seen my movies. Like, they truly were a maroon five fan and now hate me on accident. Like, somehow click the wrong thing. And so it happens.

I was getting legitimately hundreds of DMs. And did your wife at all be like, give me your fucking phone. Just let me check. Let me check this out. The name is too close.

Like it could be you. Dude, that's so fucking crazy because I remember when you posted the Instagram and the caption. And it was just brilliant of you to just be like, hey, just so you know, like, we're good over here. My wife and I are happy. I'm not cheating.

Yeah, I guess I am a comedic genius. Yeah, you're pretty good. You're not bad. I probably shouldn't have given you a straw. Yeah, too much, too much work I'm doing over there.

I am really happy that you're here. I think that you are extremely funny. I think you're very unique in Hollywood. You're humor is amazing. And I'm very happy you're here.

No, Adam Levine. Thanks, Alex. You grew up in Nebraska. I did.

I've never been to Nebraska.

Most people have it. Okay. What is a stereotype that people in Nebraska have that you think you defy? I feel like Nebraska is like, it's such like a flyover state.

Like I feel like if you're not from there, you just haven't been there. So there's like no stereotypes. People are just like Nebraska. Ha. Wow.

I've never really. Ha. So there's no stereotypes.

“So I feel like when they meet me, they're like, that's what you look like.”

Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, I feel like I look like I'm from Nebraska. I'm like, you're like, yeah, this guy eats steak. He eats corn a lot.

You could tell he, he isn't off the carbs. He's full carbo loading on with baked potatoes on the rug. Right. Looks like guy from Nebraska. Yeah, they're like he puts real butter on his potatoes.

You know what? That's a really great way to explain it because I wasn't. I think I as I was thinking about this question. That's exactly what I was wanting you to tell me something that I didn't know about Nebraska. I'm like, I don't know much.

Yeah. We're just a sturdy people. Heart, you know, sorts of the earth. I think they say. Okay.

Yeah. I don't know what that phrase means, but I love it though. Yeah. We're going to go with it. Do you think that there's like an accent happening there that we don't know about like an Nebraska accent?

No, people in Nebraska think that our accent is like flat, but when I moved to California for the first time,

I was on some like head shop on Hollywood Boulevard being like, you can just buy pipes. What? This is crazy.

“And the guy behind the counter was like, where are you from?”

So I think I must have had an accent. I don't think I have much of one anymore. What do you think? I can hear like a tiny twang. But what I, I am from a little twang.

Like a little like it's not southern. It's not. It's something. It's unique. Yeah, a little, a little salt and pepper.

Exactly. The salt and pepper meat and potatoes vibe. That's right. I'm from Philadelphia outside of it though. And I'm just so happy that I don't have the Philly accent due to the Philly accent.

It's a trussious. Yeah. So I'm glad you don't have that. I don't know. I don't know if I could do a Philly accent. But I will say that Philly, I've had a great.

I've done awesome shows there. And I've had a great times there. But it was one of the few places in Boston. It's kind of like this too where people just like want to fight you. Like it was like right when work hall ox just came out.

So we were like newly famous or whatever. And we like went there on some sort of tour. And this guy, we're like genos or paths. She's like what we're going to try both. And we're eating there.

And some guy was like, fuck you. You think you're cool. Oh, fucking Mr. Alley, what? And I'm like, I'm going to have to fight a man. You're like, I just wanted to cheese.

Yeah, I'm like, I don't know. Like a computational guy. So I'm like, I got to put up my dukes. I'm like, do I call them dukes? I don't know.

I'm going to get my ass kicked by this guy. You're so accurate. Number one. Let me just proclaim this so that no one in Philly. Hates me now and comes for me.

I've had a great time there. Love aggressive. Aggressive people. The fans are so aggressive. Yeah.

My, I grew up in my dad worked for the Philadelphia Flyers. Oh, cool.

And so I would always go to these hockey games.

And after every game or in the middle of the games,

“I would always be asking my parents like, why is everyone so angry?”

Like, we're even winning. Like, why are we angry? Now they're losing all the time.

Yeah.

But it's such an aggressive mentality.

Mm-hmm. And it's a little scary. But what's scarier is, yes, the accent. Like, do you know what we call water? I've, like, water.

Water. Water with a D. I'm going home to drink some water. You're going home to drink some water. Going home to drink some water.

Go Eagles. Yeah. In Omaha, we don't say water. We say water. It's not.

We say, we do say, like, mom. Oh. Like, mom. Dad. Mom.

So it's like, a mouth opening. Yeah. It's like, like, vowels just, like, fall out of your mouth. Like, oh. Okay.

But at least you're an unseating.

You know what I mean? Like, that's a little bit better. So Philly, love y'all shout out. But if you say water, it's fucking water. Yeah.

One thing I love about you is that you do seem like you are entirely, like, open. About just putting yourself out there. Like, you don't give a shit what people think.

“So can you give us some advice for someone that's listening?”

That's like, introverted, shy. Like, a little insecure. Like, how do you get to a place where you're like, I don't give a fuck. What people think about me. I'm just going to do what I do.

I don't know. I'm always given advice. I don't know. But I feel like it just nothing matters. Oh.

It just doesn't matter. Like, it doesn't. I would say 99.5% of the time. It just doesn't matter. What that person thinks of you.

They're not thinking about what you just said. Like, my wife does this all the time. Or she'll say something. And then like, she's like tossing and turning. And she can't sleep.

And I'm like, what's going on over there? Like, are you okay? Are you having like night convulsions? And she's like, no, I said this thing that I shouldn't have said. And then I'm like, what?

And then she'll tell me. And I'm like, oh, they don't. They're not thinking about that even a little bit. Like, they no one thinks about anyone else. We're only thinking about ourselves all the time.

So fucking true. Yeah. Listen, I love men. I love women. I love everyone.

But women do have a tendency a little bit more to like overanalyze,

“which I think can be a super power at times.”

There's smarter. Yeah, we're smarter. We're more tuned did. We should run the world. However, it can be a deficit when we're up at night.

My boyfriend does the same thing. He's like, your legs are now like twitching. Tell me what happens. Well, I don't know what to do with my legs. You're literally like, um, this is a comfortable speaking of nothing.

Can I tell you something? My wife has got to watch this podcast and be tossing and turning and be like, and I'm like, what's wrong? She's like, your legs. What were you saying with those legs?

What? My legs? Let me just clarify. So you feel better. This chair.

These chairs are 87 inches deep. There's a full on grown man laying down level B. They have caused such issues. And this is the issue. I think that all the fans watching,

fucking love them.

I always get, where'd you get the chairs?

Where'd you get the chairs? I want the chairs. When you're in person, when you're in person, you can't imagine a woman in a skirt and heels. Oh, yeah.

That's the moment where I say, I'm sorry. Yeah. You, you're going to figure it out. You got your pants on. Yeah, I am wearing pants.

This is good. I've been a nude in a film before. So I'm perfectly okay. I just want you to know if you squirm around. No one's judging you because this is, we're moving chairs.

We're moving houses actually. But we're also leaving these chairs behind. All right. I'll take them. Okay.

Okay. Great. Let's talk about workaholic. Okay. To anyone that hasn't watched it,

you live under a rock. It's about three dudes in their 20s that live together and work together. That's right. How did you meet your co-stars?

And who came up with the premise of the show? Well, I met Blake and Kyle, who played Carl, our drug dealer on the show, who ended up directing most of our episodes. We met in improv class at community college at Orange Coast College in Coast to Mesa, California.

That's dope. Yeah. And it was like day one of improv class. And at the time, Blake, he has this, like, long, cool dude hair. And he had this, like, tiny little fro.

And in high school, they called him Afro-Fetus, because he was so skinny with this tiny little Afro. And he really has blossomed as he's gotten older, because he's like, considered like hot boy. Yeah.

Now, but he was only his buck back then. I'm looking at you, Blake. And I just thought he was so funny. So afterwards, it was weird because it was like, I'm just sort of like, hitting on my friend.

“You know, we're like, I remember, like, my other buddy was like,”

"What's going on over there?" 'Cause I came out to him with a little nervous. I was like, "Hey, what's up?" If you'd be down for it, it'd be cool if, perhaps,

and Blake's like, "Yeah, I think that'd be cool, man."

“And then I moved up to L.A. from Orange County”

about a year later and met Anders at the second city, which is a improv school. I can imagine being in an improv class. There's some characters in there. Like, did you think you thrived in improv class?

Or did you keep to yourself a little bit there? I kept to myself a little bit. I mean, like, because I would say, like improv classes are weird. Have you ever taken one?

I kind of did in college, but that wasn't even a fucking thing. Yeah, so, like, I took a lot. Especially when I was like, like, 18, 19.

And there's always like a business man who's just,

like, the funny guy in the office. And then there's like, 12 true lunatics who are just like, the psychotic aunt. Who's just like, they say, "I'm funny!" And you're like, "Yeah, my God, lady."

And then there's, like, maybe two normal people who you'll end up seeing later on in life.

“Like, I know, like, like, Eric Andre was in an improv class”

of mine back in the way. And then all the work hallics guys, and Jillian Bell, who was on work hallics, I knew from improv classes and stuff like that. So you can find little diamonds in the rough.

Yeah. On the periphery, you're like, "I want to stay away from that person, that person's insane." Yeah, there's always, like, a few people that you can tell aren't lunatics who are actually trying to figure out

how to make this into a profession. So you come up with the show, and it's fucking hilarious. Is there ever a point I'm thinking of, like, you guys then are friends, and you're filming as friends was there ever a point in, like, a joke or a scare,

or something happening where you guys took it too far, and, like, you couldn't air it.

Now, there was never, like, we couldn't air it.

Really central, especially back then, was, like, really, really cool and open and down. I feel like we might not be able to get away with everything, because things are a little touchier. Now, like, we did one bit where Carl, the drug dealer,

was sick of his penis, and he wanted to remove it, because it gets him in all the trouble in his life, and they were really worried about us being, like, transphobic or something. And we're like, well, it's not about that.

He just doesn't want to have his penis, and that was, like, a real battle that we had for a while. But we ended up winning, and the show was very funny. We did another episode where we go to our neighbor's house, and they're having a pride party,

and we think it's pride fighting.

“Like, you have to see, like, pride fighting.”

But they're a group of gay men having a pride party,

and we go there, and then we get blackout drunk, and we pass out, and we wake up, and they're bed, and I wake up, and I think I have giz on my face, and I'm like, oh my God, I think we fucked each other, and then the two gay guys are like, you guys,

you guys were really, you guys were going out each other. You guys were fucking each other a lot last night. And so we go through that entire episode, and we are like, a reeling with this. And then at the end of the day,

we're like, I'm glad if I were to fuck a man, it was you, and we're together, and we're like, and we're together, and then we go back to the, to him, and we're like, wearing rainbow shirts now, and we're like, we're out, and we're proud.

We fuck each other now. And like I was like, oh, we were kidding with you. We was toothpaste, we put on your face, and we're like, what is it? I wondered why my giz was minty fresh.

And then we were like, if that's pushing the envelope, you know, but we like were up for a glad award. They loved the episode. (upbeat music) (upbeat music)

- With like the bro culture in the show, I personally find it very funny of how you guys like take it right to the edge in moments. And I do think that's hard to do though. - The hardest part was like,

it's sort of based on our actual personalities, like our characters, and then it's just taken to 12. So every once in a while it'd be like Dursus pitching a joke and you're like, well Adam is a fucking idiot, and like also like egotistical,

but also kind of a bitch. So I think he would say, and I'm like, yeah, well Anders has a stick up his ass, and he thinks he's better than everyone else, and the character though.

(laughs) - The character. - Did you guys get in a lot of fights or no? - No, not really. I mean, we're kind of brothers.

We get in fights, but at the end of the day, you're like, all right, should we go get milkshakes or whatever, whatever fat kid thing we're about to go do?

around the time that you were filming Workaholics, right?

“What was the audition process like for pitch perfect,”

where were you at in your life? How did it all come to mind?

- I was shooting the second season of Workaholics,

and like Workaholics had just come out, and it kind of clicked right away when it came out, and I was like, I don't want to do an aquapella. Well, at first I didn't know, and I thought it was a baseball movie.

They sent me the sides and it's pitch perfect, and I was like, you know, I don't have time to go audition right now, like I'm doing my show, and it was really precious about Workaholics,

and then I could just go, the producers like you just go. So I went on my lunch break for Workaholics, and like went down in audition, and I thought it was a baseball movie,

and I saw these hot ass dudes singing, and I'm like, you're not gonna get the baseball movie singing, fucking pussy, you know? And then I go in and it turns out it's not a baseball movie at all,

and then I'm quickly learning the sides, and I'm like, I don't know, this isn't baseball at all, and I go in and I do the audition, and they asked me what song I prepared,

and I didn't prepare a song, so I'm like, I didn't prepare a song, take it or leave it, and they're like, leave it, you have to sing,

it's a singing movie, and I'm like, and so like sing whatever pops into your head, and the first song, swear to God that popped into my head,

“was whatever happened to predictability,”

the milk man, the people ball, they heaved in TV, which is the full house theme song, and they're like, well, they loved it,

and I left my agent calls, I was like, what do you think? And I'm like, I don't know, I morphed into like an 80 year old jazz singer,

like I don't think I'm going to get the, because we have to sing like Rihanna and shit, I'm like, I didn't prove that I can sing, and then I,

oh well, get 'em next time, and then I got it. The fact that, in a moment of like kind of crisis,

the first thing that popped to your fucking head was full house, go. Yeah, it was just like,

they're just like, sing to whatever popped into your head, and I'm like, yeah, do it atop,

da da da! I will say though, that was like very accurate. Yeah, I do a good, I mean,

I mean, I need a lot of names, yeah, yeah, whoever that man then,

wow, okay, so that's also great that you thought it was a baseball movie. I did,

yeah, we're learning that I don't really read my emails. Yeah, I sort of just,

yeah, read the headline and go, got it. I think it goes to my sort of mantra of nothing matters,

and it's fine. Yeah, everyone that's going to get a job, don't prepare, just like,

going it. Hey,

I've never prepared a day in my life.

“I'm going to grow the fuck you are out of.”

And I'm wearing a swayed jacket. You know what's fucking crazy? I was like, did you? It looks great.

Yeah, I think it's weird. Did you know that you were passionate about singing in a capella before a pitch perfect?

I'm not. I'm not passionate about singing in a capella. I know. I'm like, I still don't consider myself a singer.

I'm just like, good at it. Like I can just do it. Got it. So like I don't,

you know, some people like, or just like, they're just naturally a good dancer. Uh-huh.

They, like I can just sing. Which by the way, was so funny. I've always known I could sing.

I had like choir teachers in high school be like, you should join the swing choir. And I'm like, I want girls to like me.

Uh-huh. I'm like, no thank you. And uh, I call my dad when I booked

pitch perfect. And I'm like, dad, I booked this like studio movie Universal's making it.

And he's like, oh my god, yeah man. Nice. So what is it?

And I go, it's called pitch perfect. He's like baseball movie, cool. And I'm like,

not a baseball movie. It is, uh, it's a singing capella movie. And he goes,

but you can't sing where the shit. And I go, yeah, I can sing. I'm a pretty good singer and he goes, "Bullshit!"

I'm like, "All right, well I'm gonna do in this movie and he goes, I'd find a way to get out of that one." I'm like, "I'm doing it." (laughing)

- The fact, okay, no to self, never listen to dad.

And it's also very interesting that you knew that you were good at singing, but you're not like singing around the house to your wife. - No. - Okay, but what would be your go to karaoke, song, Full House? - I don't like karaoke, really.

- Really? - Because I'm like, "What I do for work is perform." So then when I'm not working, I don't want to then go work. - Okay. - That to me is what that is. Now, sometimes I could be like 3am and we're at someone's house

and they bust out a karaoke machine. I'll get up there and try to sing, "Don't stop a leaving or some bullshit." But like, I'm not gonna just- - You're not gonna do it. - Yeah. - You are here to perform today.

- I'm Walter of the, this is work.

- Okay, great. - Pay me and what?

- What the fuck is this? - Don't go there. - There's more in there, just keep pouring. Okay, so last month, because I was gonna say this and you know what, you can deny me, but I'm just gonna say it anyways. Last month, or two months ago, we had John Mayeron

and he did kind of like a Christmas song, right? Giving us a little Christmas cheer. So I was wondering if you would be interested in auditioning for the call her daddy, Fourth of July, song episode. - All right, here we go, okay, sorry.

That's quite a little sad. ♪ Brow to be in America ♪ ♪ 'Cause at least I know I'm free ♪ ♪ Once you want to stand up ♪ ♪ Next to you and red ♪

♪ White and blue ♪ ♪ Grilling burgers on the grill ♪ ♪ A bushlight for me and you won't ♪ (laughing)

Which essentially is a male American.

- America! - Yeah, I think you need extra trucks. Golden retrievers, lift-aid trucks. - A lot of trucks, a lot of trucks. Should've stopped earlier.

- That was fucking phenomenal, you got the job.

“- I think I was the only one to audition for.”

(upbeat music) (upbeat music) - I'm gonna go through a list of some random topics that are happening in the world right now. - Okay.

- And I want your take on them. - Okay, yes. - Okay, number one, telling your friend that you don't like their partner. - I don't do it.

- Okay. - Yeah, don't just don't do it. You might lose your friend forever, but what they're gonna do is I've done this before where they like left their partner

and you're like, "Thank God, she sought to do it." And then they get back together and then they get married and you're like, "I was kidding. Dude, I'm a comedian.

What?

- Never invited over the house.

- What do you think about B-D-E? - I have M-D. - Medium dick energy, a big dick. - That seems too much. - It's a little too much to handle.

It's a lot on the play. You have to schedule it. You've got to think about it. - I feel like I'm working with my M-D-E. So that's what I'm really pushing.

I'm selling it. I'm like a telemarketer.

“- I think that's the title of this episode.”

Adam Devine. - M-D. - M-D-E. - I think it's great. Okay, what do you think about road head?

- Did not done enough in my life. It's not done enough. - You would like that? - I mean no, the older I get, the more I'm like, it's, and then like, where are we cleaning up?

Like, and then... - It's more for the thrill of it. - Yeah, like as I've gotten older, it's less appealing, but every once in a great while. - It could be a fun spread.

- Spice it up. - Yeah. - What's your take on Pete Davidson? - I love Pete. I know Pete.

- Okay. - I had him on Adam Devine's house party, which was a stand-up show. I did for Comedy Central, and we had him season one. He was 19, and I'm like, "This kid must have a huge car."

(laughs) Just something about him. He's weary, those long-wiring guys. Sometimes got a big old wing. (laughs)

And then that was kind of the whole topic of conversation. On set, like, we're all staring at this young boy. (laughs) Gaging the size of his Johnson.

“- How do you feel about talking to your Uber drivers?”

- It's a slippery slope. I've had a Uber driver who realized who I was, and drove me to their house. 'Cause it was on the way to my house. I'm not really knowing where we're going,

'cause I'm in a new city. There's a house that I rented. So I'm like, kind of zone it on the back, and we pull up and their her family comes out. And I'm like, "Where are we?"

I look up from my phone, and she's just like, "Oh, you don't mind, do ya?" And I'm like, "Uh, you can't say yes "because you're stuck there at their house now." So you're like, "No!"

So then I get out of the car, a photo op, one of their neighbors comes over. I take photos with them and their family, and then I get back in the car, and she takes me to my house now,

and then when we pull up, she goes, "Hmm, "so this is where you live." So it could really turn sideways on you.

- It was weird because her husband was like,

he was giving method energy, he was like, "Yeah, man, oh, yeah." And so I'm like, "That's a lot." I don't know. - A little too much. - Yeah, I was like covering up my water, I'm like, "No, she's like sure, it's a nice house, you're renting."

“- You're like, "Hey, can you keep any valuables in there?”

"No, no valuables here." - You're like, "I'm only here for actually a couple hours, "I'm moving location." - Yeah, I'm actually moving houses to a small studio apartment. - Holy, that's a fucking weird one.

- Yeah. - Okay, what do you think about the band, Maroon 5? - Fuck you, Adam Levine. - But you have to believe it, and admit that one song slaps of like, "She will, oh, no."

- No. - No, no, keep going. - No, no, you're going to see it. - Yes, you can. - Oh, be loved. - It's a vanger.

- Yeah, is that theirs? - Yeah. - And yeah, I think. - I mean, the guys really talented at many things.

How do you feel about sex on the first date?

- It must, a must. - You have to do it. - Right. - Yeah, it's like, it's like opening the door for someone.

“You're like, you have to see like, are they polite?”

Are they good in head? You have to check it out. - Yeah. - That I really appreciate that take. That's the, that's the unique one.

I don't know if we've ever had someone say that on Caller Daddy before. - I'm here for first. - I can already see the headline. - Yeah. - Adam Devine says, "Sex on the first date is a must."

It's like opening the door. - Yeah, rape question mark. Is he, it gets really good spin out of control? - I like that. - Adam, what did you say?

My publicist just calls me shaking. - Adam, no. - I love that you showed up alone here. - Yeah, what am I gonna do? Show up with, what you know, I worked at the improv comedy club

when I was like, a 20 to like, 22. - Yeah. - All the coolest guys showed up alone. The, like, really famous guys. And they'd show up with like a gang of people.

They were less cool. But like Chris Rock, who's one of the most famous comedians, would show up just by himself.

“And I was like, that's how I, someday I'll be like that.”

- Okay, this is Caller Daddy. Adam, so we have to talk about your date. - We have to call our fathers. - Okay. - Okay.

- Once you moved to Los Angeles, how was the dating scene here for you before you got famous? - I didn't, well, I really, I started doing standup and comedy when I was 18. And I'm convinced I wouldn't have ever gotten a date

or laid or anything if it wasn't for comedy. - Just 'cause I'm not.

- I never was like the type of guy to be up

and like lick my lips and do a skinny eye thing and like do this a lot. Which like, all my guy friends who are really good have been like, deal with stuff. What you guys doing over here, like that are like more

into that person, they were, it was working for them. I can do an impression of me doing that. But then as soon as I have to talk to them normally, they're like, there's a different guy in there. There's not the cool, skinny, licking lips guy.

- Right, right, right, that was actually a great impression. I think it was better than I've ever seen the actual originals. - Oh, yeah, but have you seen those Tik Tok kids with the swivel shirt?

- Oh, sure, yeah. - How do you feel about boys dancing? - I don't know, dude. - My swoop at the hair. - Yeah, I don't know. - How do you feel?

- It's weird, it's like a totally different thing 'cause like that wouldn't have like maybe times are better or definitely times are weirder. Like 'cause when I was in high school, that wouldn't have flown even a little bit.

Like you had to keep, you couldn't be doing that shirtless with a group of friends and posting it somewhere and not getting like major backlash from that. So like kind of cool that kids are so comfortable being like super cringy and weird on the internet.

But for sure, they're gonna look back at that and like four years and be like, oh, Jesus Christ. I'm trying to like get a job now and they're like future employer looks and they're like, oh, you're the skinny eyed licking lip.

Elbows out, doing weird dance, Tik Tok dance kid. You're hired. (laughing) You're a genius. - My God, you're plugged in.

- I agree with you. I don't think that I think I would have found that like so unattractive if a guy at my school was doing that. - Yeah.

- But you're not 16 now. So maybe if you were 16 now, you'd be like, oh my God, Caleb and Skyler and Chantston. - Chantston. - Yep.

- Is that in Nebraska? - No, it has to be a name of some kid now.

and neither kid chants and then we're like,

and it's not original enough at a tin to it. - Chantston. Hey, all the Chantston's listen, you know? There's like a dozen Chantston's that are listening or I know I'm like, oh shit, they're talking about me.

(laughing) - With their tiny little butthole mouse. Oh my God, what? They're talking about me on call of her daddy. - What the fuck is this?

- You've seen those Tik Tok dances, right? More they're like, is that the moon? - Yeah. - Are you on Tik Tok a lot? - No, I've only, I only see,

well, by the way, I feel like I'm not on it enough for the algorithm to know me. So I've been on it like two or three times at every time I'm like, yeah, it's too much. - But I wanna, because my Instagram algorithm is embarrassing.

- What is it?

- It's just like, my wife is like Jesus Christ.

When she sees my like page, it's just like swollen beef cake dudes. - What? - Just from like working out tips. So I like I look at,

so like, this is like I can still work out from like these beefy, hunky dudes. - Right. - 'Cause I'm like, oh, it would be kind of cool to look sort of like that.

- You're the dream, no Adam, because most girls are like taking the guys phone and be like, oh, there's like hot girls with bikinis. Your wife is like Adam, again, you're looking at this guy and he's like so bad.

- Yeah, but then she has like nightmares that I'm like secretly a gay man. So like there is a downside to me looking at oiled ups. (laughing) - Man on Instagram.

- Right, like it could be slightly questionable. - Yeah, yeah. - But then you have the MDE. So she's like actually like that. - Yes, yes, you find.

- Your wife is stunning. How did you guys meet and how did you ask her out? - We met on a plane. We met on an airplane. We sat next to each other.

“The only way I can meet a beautiful woman like my wife”

would be she has to sit next to me for four hours. - That's good. And I didn't have to let my lips even once. No, we were flying to New Orleans and like we've stated earlier, I don't read emails.

So I didn't know that she we were in the same movie. And so we were sitting next to each other. She recognizes me, I don't know her. I just think she's a beautiful woman sitting next to me. I have a girlfriend at the time.

I'm actively not trying to talk to this girl. I'm like, so she's keeps chatting on me and I'm like, "God, am I hot at shit today?" Like what is happening? Like why is she all into me?

And I'm like, "Oh God, man." And so I play fruit ninja on my iPad for four hours straight, my hands hurt from just swiping doing combos with fruit. And she was like, oh this guy.

And then we landed and then I see the guy with a sign with your name on it, the driver at baggage claim. And she has one, two, and then my friend, Nina Dobrev, who's also in the movie, who I know her and she had a sign. And I'm like, oh we're all in this movie together

“and Chloe Bridges my wife was like, yeah, what did you think?”

And I'm like, I'm so sorry, I had no idea. And I felt embarrassed. I'm like, let's all just riding the same car together and get to know each other, go into Baton Rouge because we were shooting in Baton Rouge

in the second 45 minute drive for New Orleans.

And we go and Chloe's from New Orleans and she goes, let's get drive through documentaries, which is a thing there. - Oh my God, did you take a look there? - Yeah, it's the best.

And we went through, and Nina, to her credit, was like, play in a cool, I'll take a couple of little sample sizes to see what I like, you know? And so she has like a few little ones, so she's sipping.

And then Chloe goes, I'll take the 38 ounce party starter, and I'm like, I'm like, I love this girl. - Yeah. - And so then when did you break up with that past girlfriend?

- A few weeks later, and then we started to date, but I hadn't been single in like years. So then I like was single for a while and felt like I had to be single and then after like however many months,

six months or something, Chloe was like, you either have to call me your girlfriend or we have to stop doing this. And I'm like, okay, and you're my girlfriend. - Okay.

- You're like a new, when you got that drink in the car, it was over for me. - Okay, I got the party starter. - Well, legend. - Yeah.

- When you guys moved in together,

“did you have to kick any like gross habits that you had?”

- There was some weird conversations 'cause I was given a lot of stuff from work of hallics, like that people just send, I'm sure you get stuff sent to you all the time. - Right. - And so like weird stuff.

So like flesh light. The like, it's like molded after like porn stars of a giant

So I didn't know what to do with them.

“So for a while, I was like giving them away”

as like kind of gaggives, but then I like gave like two or three away. And then like I was like, I don't want to be known as the flesh light guy who just has like a treasure trove of these.

So then I just stuck it in a closet. But like they're all insane flesh lights. They're like alien flesh lights. And like, yeah, like alien vaginas. And like, and like monster PCs and like the weirdest things.

So I, it's in my closet. And I came home one day and she was like kind of being weird and I'm like, what's up? And she's like, I think I have to talk to you. I'm like, wait, what's going on?

And she's like, what's, do you have like a thing for aliens? And I'm like, what? And she's like, do you like, are you in a monsters? And I'm like, what are you talking? You're weird to me, all right now.

And then she pulled out like 15 alien posses.

And I'm like, I can see how this looks weird here. She's like, this is why I'm talking. This is what I'm talking about. And then she's like, well, let's, let's throw them away. And I'm like, we should keep two for not for use.

You can keep them in the box, but like, they are hilarious. Right, just in case.

“Just in case you need to bust it out of a party”

or you meet someone who you're like, this would be the funniest gift for them. I agree. So you kept them too. We kept an alien in a monster.

Did you ever give them away? We still haven't. I should have brought them here. We're going to transition from your real, real, real wife to your work wife, Rebel Wilson.

Yep. She's coming here on Monday. Oh, really? Yeah, this is gonna be very fun. You guys have such a good dynamic.

I was watching this morning the scene where you're like, maybe we should like make out. And she's like, yeah, sometimes they think about doing heroin and then I'm like, yeah, better not. Yeah, whatever.

And it's like, you guys have a great dynamic. Did you guys ever get to like add lib in that movie at all together? That most of, I mean, KKN and Road like an amazing script.

So I'm not taking anything away. But all of my lines were, no. (laughing) But I rewrote the whole thing. No, we improv quite a bit.

And actually like our Love Connection, like me and Rebels, Love Connect, we improv that. And so then as we were shooting, they're like, oh, that's kind of funny. Get put them together.

And then it ended up being like a bigger, bigger story. So fucking good. Okay, so my idea was this. Rebels coming on and I'm gonna have to do the same thing. I want you, if you can, to impersonate Rebels,

and then I'm gonna have her impersonate you. Oh, that's so hard. Is it so hard? Well, 'cause have you ever tried to do an Australian accent? Fuck, no, I don't do impersonation.

It's so hard to do. Is it too hard? I mean, it might be. I feel like she's just gonna be like, oh, no. (laughing)

Just with like weird energy, just bouncing all over the place. Yeah, no, no, I mean, no. Adam, no, oh, no. I feel like that's the only word I could say in Australian speak.

They say like, no, within all. Okay, I got it. Okay. Hello. It's sort of British.

Hello, it's me, Rebels and I'm the lead singer. The Beatles. (laughing) I can't do it, Alex, I can't do it. No, it's so good.

It's so good. It's so good. I literally, I was trying to do it earlier

“and I was like, that's why she's iconic.”

I can't do it. Hello. I'm Rebels Wilson. I'm the, I play bass in a wasis. I feel like she's Australian.

She's not even from England, but I don't know how to do. How do you do English in English accent? Because I can't do Australian. Fine, it's fine, it's fine. I cannot thank you for coming on enough.

Let me ask you, what are you doing next? Because I know you obviously have your podcast. But what are you doing any new films? This is important. Check it out.

Our podcast, I'm gonna do with the workhawks, guys. It's super fun. Yeah, I'm doing, I'm doing a season two of bumper and brand land that's been off series that that I'm doing for peacock. That's just a spin off of my character from pitch perfect.

And season one is super fun. It's on peacock now.

And then we're doing a second season with a Jamila Jamil

and Sarah Highland, who was my co-star in Modern Family and then flew aboard, who's super funny. And then I was gonna do a workhawks movie, but then Paramount Plus pulled the plug. So that I saw that, that really fucking sat.

And it's okay. And legally I can't talk shit. - Right, right, you just look at the camera and start sobbing.

- Legally, that's right.

“Adam, thank you so much for coming on Call Her Daddy.”

- Thanks. - That was very fun. - Thank you. - I'll talk to you. - Thanks.
