Gene is Gene's #1 fan
Lol
I'm No. 2 then.
nice
His head is so big he seemingly needs one or two hands to hold it up the entire interview
😂
Its not all head its mostly the cotton candy squirrel on top of it making it look larger.
He's holding the headphones against his ears.
@@louisborselio8608 That's because his head is too big for his earphones
@@Mark-p6q3n lol, poor Gene. everybody's gotta be mean to him.
Gene Simmons:"If you're willing to walk among us unvaccinated, you're an enemy." That pretty much killed it for me.
Gene has a daughter I would make sweet luv to for mmm bout 2 min
Mr. Pfizer…. The “Elite” and their mandates. Disgusting!
If I walked away from everyone with an ignorant view, I'd never talk to anyone!
I know what you're saying and agree with you in Gene being wrong, but just because I don't agree on that with Gene doesn't mean I need to run from the guy. Gene's got other interesting and entertaining views and topics.
Hell, I doubt anyone agrees with all of Adam's views, yet here we are watching his show.
Not wrong...
That's a tough one bubba... I got no answer for that...
But isn't Gene Simmons the one that was telling us we all had to comply with the 2O 2O "thing" or we deserve what we get & how terrible we are? I remember writing the band off a few yrs ago during this time when experts were warningabout it on Twitter & getting ban'd for it
Did you really just interview gene Simmons and then talk about being honest about your views and the whole Covid and political crap going in? So you just sat with gene like he did nothing wrong and then talked to the next guy complaining about people just like gene.
😂wtf is going on
Ya, that's called a professional. Adam's job is to be a good host and provide entertaining content. He has views but knows when to push and how to be appropriate and respectful to people he disagrees with. Try it sometime Dipshit.
On the flipside, Gene was ok doing an interview with Adam, knowing Adam's stance on the covid policies.
At the end of the day though, Adam knows how to play the Hollywood game. I agree that even if Gene is a hero of his, the Truth Yeller should've asked him if he wants to walk back any of his Covid comments, but you can bet that if it wasn't brought up, there were pre-conditions.
Adam is respectfully of his guests. This is not Crossfire.
Gene defines arrogant and pseudo intellectual. And pompous and often buffoon.
And he treats people like me like shit.
And I love him for it
I didn't comply gene an I didn't die 😅.
What's not to like about this episode? It's Gene Simmons! He's an older person who comes from a generation that trusts that the government vaccines are safe he doesn't really know any better. Give him a break. It's cool Adam got him on the show. It was a good conversation! Right?
I totally enjoyed it. Laughed at every stupid joke. I’ll give him a pass on the earlier brainwashing. The next few years will be very educational for a lot of folks.
I made it to 50 seconds in😮That sunglasses line, wow!😬 Punched out until 1:22
KISS was my first concert at the St Louis Checkerdome. I went with my mother who was petite and pretty and quite youthful in appearance. Some biker types kept passing her joints. My Mom's response: "These boys keep giving me tobacco." Eventually they passed her a little red bong. I grabbed it and went down to them and told them she was my mother. To their credit they apologized profusely about 10 times throughout the show. And we all kept looking at each other and giggling about it. They were cool guys. The show was magnificent. And I spent a lot of time thinking, "Is this really KISS?" I just could not believe I was in the same building with the band. This was around the Love Gun era and I was about 14. I'll never forget it.
Second guest was just awesome! Loved it!
Gene came from nothing and hugely appreciated everything that America had to offer, especially the opportunity to make something of himself - which of course he did, in spades! Nothing was given to him or his band. Lots of talent, hard work, ingenuity, and perseverance, resulted in kiss, climbing the ladder and making it to the top. People threw tomatoes and many other things at kiss when they first started, but that just made them work harder to read better songs and become better musicians, as well as put on a better show. Over the years they spent millions on their shows in order to add a whole new level of excitement to their concerts that no other band had done. Few if any of you out there could do anything even close to what gene was able to accomplish in his lifetime. So he deserves our respect and not the hate and stupid from the many young tweedle dumbs out there who obviously know nothing about him and what he went through to get ready at today.
Rock on forever, Gene!!
Wiseman? ....Story checks out #freepalestine
I love Gene Simmons. He is such a knowledgeable, interesting, and talented man. God bless you all.
Gene is a great guest, especially talking about music history. Its okay to leave politics at the door sometimes, youre not going to agree with everybody 100% of the time.
Anyone wonder why Kimmel hasn't been on the show? Come on Adam, bring your duplicitousness full circle.
Kimmel is too busy … gettin’ busy…
With Little Boys? Epstein Island Much?
I would never wonder why Kimmel wasn't invited on a show - & I care nothing about him or his warpt opinions
That was weird.
@@avarysse5782Say hello to Donnie von Shitsinpantz 😅
Kimmel is a dirty douche bag. Adam I'm sure doesn't want that stink in his studio.
Who always thinks he’s the smartest person in the room?

My first Kiss concert was at MSG in NYC and The Sammy Hagar Band opened. They were booed off, and I remember Hagar saying F you to us as he walked off. We were happy they left.
I was maybe 14. My Grandpa gave me 20 bucks to go and scalp tix. So I rode the train to MSG from Elizabeth. I got really great loge seats for $20!! (Orig price $5.50)
I had no idea Gene was a Hungarian, til much later, so we have that in common along with other things, including I write and play rock music even into my old age now.
Thanks Gene and Kiss for making my youthful years fun and interesting despite having grown up poor as dirt.
I still have the orig Kiss Alive album at home, and on CD in my truck. LOL. You guys were the highlight of my high school years, as well as many of my classmates'. Fun music, fun times!
My first Kiss concert was in 1977 and yes I brought my mom and 2 other kids. It was opened by Styx.
Joel Osteen performs there now. lol
Styx is almost the anti-KISS, but that honor is reserved for KISS' earlier tour mates, Rush.
@@JoeCrow5542 seems correct. That was the same time and it was the first new album I bought. My older brother had all of the older stuff, so I knew all of their material. Mom found it kind of loud, but she enjoyed Styx quite a lot.
the summit
Always good to see Uncle Gene, still the leader of the KISS Army. Edited Ah, it depends on the woman, some just want a guy who can provide, calm down
I found Gene to be funny and a great guest. Knowing Adams views on things if he still had him on then i dont see why others cant just enjoy a good guest.
I never took Kiss seriously but always liked Simmons and his voice. Cool guy.
Gene Simmons rules. Been listening since the 2nd grade back in 77
Kiss is not for the cool kids😅
Took my Kids to thier first Kiss concert this year. It was awesome!
So sad to show kids that trash rock is not music.....don't ruin you children, although they will probably rebel and go to a James Taylor show😅
No you didn’t 😅 they played their last show ever last year
@@arlen1630are you dumb?
I don't know who Todd is but he starts at 1hr 24 min.
F Gene.
Have seen quite a few extended interviews (traditional ones) with Gene...he's so intelligent, great sense of humor, conversationalist. reasonable...
Just an impressive individual.
I enjoyed Adam & Gene talking music .
I gotta give it up to gene, worked security for 12 years, saw just about every band, yeah KISS was fun, but, gene would walk around backstage before the show, talk to any worker, ask how things were going, and would take photos and sign things for the staff if they asked and was just a down to earth dude.
Todd Rose is informative and an awesome guest!
Here's a perfect example of the rich guy that would still press the button that kills random people for 5K.
😂
Mister Vaxxxxx Mandates.
You are so wrong it’s not even funny
Yes! Shout out to Harland. We found your guy my guy! 😂
😂
PS - If Gene ever reads this... we were raised in the same way and I love his Magyar cussing! I do cook Hungarian, all my Grandma's recipes, which were her mother-in-law's. We could be like brothers!! Love you Gene!! People don't get you, but I do!
Gene Simmons in the movie Extract. Absolute gold.
I would love to see Gene on Joe Rogan's pod.
It’s cool hearing Gene talking music
“If you're willing to walk among us unvaccinated, you are an enemy.”
-Gene Simmons.
Say what you will about Geneor his personality but the guy knows his music. He respects the greats.
P.S. I believe if I was introduced to Jimmy Page, I would have to admit I might shed a tear out of excitement.
I went to see Kiss in 1976 with my mom and dad who took me at 10 years old....
They need to talk about lick it up. . . . Adams favorite KISS song
A very calming listening vid. I woke up @ 3:15 to as most 35-year-olds do. Then REM sleep. Hopefully I don't snore.
Gene Simmons needs his own podcast. What a wealth of knowledge in there!
Been a KISS fan all my life. Gene is super full of himself but at least he admits it! He's always an interesting listen.
, thank you for the interview with Gene Simmons, also a longtime fan from my teen years I feel like I grew up with them, but honestly, I have come to be a huge fan of yours Adam, so thank you. and FYI. that kind of food has its fixation because it is "made with love". when I cook anything my dear mother taught me to cook I have her with me in my heart and its always loved by all sitting around the table, made with love, my friend made with love, please keep us updated on your dinner with Gene, ✨💜
Caught you one year in Irvine Ca and I was kinda dazed on cikaden because of a recuperating broken arm and was able to sneak my way close. Was a great show loudest show that I can remember 🎉🎉
Gene Simmons looks over at laxamata and says, "Who's this guy?" I fucking lost it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gene knows a LOT, but Gene is Gene's #1 fan. I'm out!
Yea I skipped ahead to the next guest @ 01:23:00
@@Red_Twizzler IDK how old you are but, when we were growing up in the '70's, no one listened to KISS. It was Zeppelin, ELP, Tull, BOCult, YES, Foghat, ZZTop, Lynryd Skynrd, etc... real rock bands.
KISS had a following, but it was not the Stoners who followed them. It was girly girls & girly boys.
And I played guitar in rock bands starting in '74. I couldn't even name one KISS song.
remember when he told everyone to get a jab or be banished from society.
Kiss is one of those bands that ONLY people of a certain generation like. Basically the early Gen Xers
@@jeffrandolf5673 I’m considered an “elder millennial”. Also, famous people over 65 only talks about themselves.
Years ago when I was in a drug treatment facility where clothing was donated and clients would take on stuff, a group came to our facility for a live-speaker meeting one night. Seated in a chair was a very black man in his 40s with short hair, and he was wearing an orange and black football jersey that had KISS ARMY on the front and back -- and which I automatically assumed he had acquired as a donated clothing item.
Yes, because the man was very black and with short hair, I immediately was sure that he did not know anything about rock or what the wording on the jersey meant and started to volunteer my explanation to him about it.
The guy got pissed and spun around in his chair and snarled at me, "Man! Whachu know about Kiss? Man, I'm from DETROIT!!!"
That was the end of that conversation! 😂
Rock n Roll killed site reading, true knowledge of harmony and melody...the actual notes that make up the actual different chords that Gershwin, Jerome Kern, Cole Porter used 20 years before the dumbing down of music
Gene's first solo album is incredible - great melodies and homages to his influences (Beatles etc . . .) a great variety of songs - I think it's underrated for sure.
Lasted a couple of minutes. What an absolute O-ring
Another great One with Gene. !
Kiss was big with the American kids in Milan, Italy. In the 70's.
About to watch. If simmons isn't called out for his #covid tyranny, then this will be the LAST Adam Carolla podcast I listen too.
I wouldn't hold your breath.
@@johnbookout3535 Damn
Great show. Gene is a great bassist, a rock icon and a national treasure.
Two of my favorite people, Adam and Gene, good show.
Well he's as honest as he can be, and he is his biggest fan!
Lol, Adam, "Velvet Revolution, sounds like a great name for a band," yeah, because it was inspired by the Velvet Underground, helmed by Adam's favorite, Lou Reed, haha. Laugh of the day on that one.
There is also Velvet Revolver.
Steve Perry is the Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart of AOR synth metal.
Excellent interview...And I was born in 1964... like Adam.. just a different experience...in the Boston experience..than the California experience...but so much in common..😊
Nobody LOVES GENE more than GENE 🧬 ❤😘
Gene is the man. Love him
TRUMP2024 SAVE AMERICA 🇺🇸
You have been divided and conquered. Tool
Hows that medical experiment you volunteered for working out, buddy?
Just by reading these comments... I can tell
I do not need to listen to this one > Thank you Gentlemen, I appreciate the heads up !!
I got through the first part by listening at 1.5x speed. Highly recommended. 👌 Do watch the second guy, though. That segment was interesting.
If your a music fan then its worth the torture a few inside gems
Finally, an interview where I like Gene.
Gene Simmons is a genius.
Carolla makes me laugh out loud.
Gene is very interesting man. I like his stories and opinions. He is quite smart. Even if we see different on politics thats okay. I am still a fan.
Gene take the band to Newfoundland!!! We LOVED kiss at Salmon fest 2010\2011 (im bad with dates lol)
Gene is very entertaining
Gene and his family put some money in for a kids help center in my small town. The guys a good man.
Adam, I’ve written to you in the past about the power of daily brisk walking, I guess you didn’t take me seriously. You’re obviously a Kiss fan, look at Gene Simmons. Does he look different than he did a few years ago? Does it seem like he’s somehow aged in reverse?
Look at current images of the rest of the band sans makeup, do they somehow look old and young at the same time? Do they seem like they have energy? Or are they winding down like aging clocks?
If you practice walking briskly everyday the mathematical benefits will payoff like compounding interest. You want to walk briskly, making sure to swing both of your arms while using your eyes for things both near and far. Open your eyes slightly wider while you’re walking and remember to always have fun.
A best of AC/DC playlist will give you an idea of pace. An Apple Watch and closing your rings is cheaper than any trainer or gym. Underdress for the occasion or you’ll overheat, feel sick and quit. Remember to stay hydrated.
That’s it, it really is that simple. And it’s sustainable for life.
The benefits are that it’ll change your physicality, your countenance, your energy, your mind and then possibly your life.
PS- Please, I beg of you, check with your Doctor before starting this process. I suspect in some people it can cause an event. Practicing the art of daily brisk walking is that powerful.
PSS- The man to your left, who I’ve never seen, ask him how many miles a week he walks.
Edit: I really want this doctor thing to hit home so I going to say this, Netanyahu had an event after I told him. Today, he looks sharper and fitter than I can recall.
I wish women still weighed 100lbs! I’d even settle for 120lbs!
Excellent guest. Always brings your show up a notch . ✌
For the birthday cocktail parties, do the celebrities pick the list or does Adam and crew?
Definitely not the guest...probably not Adam either, just the crew, probably Dawson.
Such a great 2nd act
When you're a peasant, the contrast between people over 70 where you are and people over 70 in Hollywood is just bizarre.
Here, we've got your boiler plate old people ... wearing old people clothes with slippers on the wrong feet, with grey messy hair(if they're lucky), sad, confused, or plain gone in the head.
But in Hollywood, you've got the exact same old bodies, but with all these grotesque affectations ... fake hair styled and dyed as if they're 30, ... wearing inappropriate clothes and shoes like they're 30 ... using words like they're 30.
It's like me turning up at a super car meet-up, with cardboard cut-outs sellotaped over my 21 year-old Volkswagen Bora and a grainy cassette of fake engine sounds playing on a loop, seriously expecting to pass it off as a brand new Lamborghini Huracan instead of the knackered old shit heap it is.
Still - good interview.
p.s. the CIA missed the Velvet Revolution???
Are you fucking KIDDING me?
The CIA/NSA were behind ALL of the colour revolutions, from eastern europe through the middle east, to Maidan in 2014.
Sorry, but Todd Rose doesn't know what's been going on in the world for the last 100 years. Get Mike Benz or Daniel Sheehan on Adam - they'll set you straight brother.
I love this show so much... What do you guys think?..
I LOVED this interview!!! So fun. I had to pause halfway through to listen to so many songs mentioned in the video. So good! 😊🎉
I'm in my mid-40's and love bands like Megadeth and Tool. But I'm also a Taylor Swift and Kelly Clarkson fan. Wide range. Never understood the KISS love. What am I missing?
You’re missing the fact you’re a knob factor
Kiss is trash ...I play guitar going on 60 years, and that is the bottom of the barrel 😅
Go listen to early vinyl..it's cool..not the circus show..there's some good tunes
damn 74.. fucking guy looks amazing, and still sounds good.... DEM FUCKING JEWISH GENES... PUN-INTENDED
Loved under the Trump admin when Gene addressed the country on his life and Israel
Why cut out the music pieces?
Such a humble and selfless man...
Gotta have Perry Farrell back on the show Adam
Gene's SOS Pad hair
Looks like a hat.
Great show!!!
Mole people!! Loved watching that on Saturday local channel horror program! Then they would rerun it on Sunday afternoon! So not to horrific for daytime!
It’s Chaim Witz
I rarely say this Adam ... aye ta! Rock on man. )
Bottom line, unless you were there, in the 70’s, it’s hard to grasp how huge Kiss was… I was in middle school when I saved up enough money to buy “Rock and Roll Over” in the winter of 1976. (“Destroyer” was sold out). Still one of my favorite albums. Gene is a marginal song writer and a very underrated bass player. Love Gene but this interview gets side tracked too often. Keep up the awesome work.
Gene Simmons! I saw you in December at Madison Square Garden! Awesome!
this was a great podcast. Adam has a man crush.
God of Thunder, War Machine and Unholy are the Kiss songs that have held up the best. IMO Check em out
Biden Gem: Naked City from unmasked.
Hiden gem. Auto correct is pushing Bidenomics
Gene Simmons + Ace... 2 people who embody the American dream
Sad that Adams admins censor his fans comments. Not cool
Gene always looked to nickle and dime. Basically, if you're a fan, KISS your money goodbye.
What’s the time stamp for the news segment?
Oh geez. If we get Gene Simmons on with Godfrey we could facts about every culture on planet earth.
Why were some songs edited out. Cause Gene said something bad maybe?
Clyde McPhatter had quite a few hits with The Drifters and as a solo artist. His big solo hit was A Lover's Question
As the kids like to say, this episode was a banger
An old narcissistic boomer bragging about himself??
