Too $hort, Freaky Tales & a Hollywood Voicemail Meltdown - Adam & Dr. Drew #1995
Episode description
Hip hop legend Too $hort and Hollywood producer David Weintraub join Adam and Dr. Drew to discuss their new film Freaky Tales, a gritty, character-driven movie set in 1987 Oakland. They share how the film came together—from indie roots to Lionsgate acquisition—starring Pedro Pascal and featuring a surprise appearance from Tom Hanks. Too $hort reflects on the cultural legacy of the Bay Area, and Adam recalls his own brief comedy stint in Oakland during that same era.
The episode also dives into behind-the-scenes moments from Celebrity Rehab, including a threatening voicemail from a former industry figure that David shares on-air. The conversation turns raw and honest as they discuss the emotional toll of addiction, past cast members, and why rebooting the show in today's influencer-driven world might be harder than ever.
