    I haven’t watched Adam in years. So sad that I found him during this tragedy but also grateful for his amazing humor and bad ass takes during all of this!! Loving watching him every day! Adam for Fire Chief, Governor and/or President.

      Same here. I used to listen to his podcast with Dr. Drew pretty religiously but then I went left for a while and stopped. But I’ve been redpilled this past year and I saw Adam on a recent episode of Triggernometry, and since then I’ve been back to watching him on the regular. Adam’s been like a beacon in this woke darkness that we Californians have had to deal with.

    1:06:00 When Eddie Van Halen was trying to build his house studio it was flatly rejected as a business in residential (probably sound ordinance too).
    So Eddie then went back to the commission said he was building a racquetball court with double thick walls.
    When his house was finished he converted that racquetball court into his sound studio that he wanted all along.

    My neighbor's house burned down in 2019 and he rebuilt all concrete. Type 1,rated fire resistant home. Less square footage than what he had but his house isn't going down next time. Really what got his home and other neighbors homes were the embers entering the attic. Once embers enter the attic and hits all that combustible materials....your home is hard to save after that.

    • @coolcpa3321
      @coolcpa3321 7 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Yep. That's why you build a house with no eaves or fully enclosed soffits with sealed eaves made of non-combustible materials. Also, add gable vents with ember-resistant covers or a positive pressure ventilation systems so you have no vents on the roof. The key is preventing embers from entering your attic.

    Carolla's family was just like ours and our neighbors. Working TVs sitting on non working TVs. People were poor in the early 80s late 70s. 99 cent tube steaks and pans without handles were the norm for us too. We saved as much as we could to get by. Bimart, K mart, recycle, collect cans and bottle tops for money, garden, fish for food. This was in Northern California.

    This has become my favorite show. I catch it on Apple podcast, but nothing beats the video experience. The show is always entertaining and funny, but I enjoy learning more about different topics. Especially from an American perspective. As a builder and property developer in the UK it's also super interesting to listen to the construction processes across the pond. I'd love to do a project in the US and mix it up with the trades. Great show, Adam. Thanks.

    3:59 they make giant warehouses this way. Called tilt up(tilt wall, tilt slab) construction. Comparing it to a traditionally stick built house, it is more expensive, but then economy of scale comes to play. I’d say around 10,000sqft and up and the cost for both structures becomes more similar. Probably the best and most cost-efficient option would be to use cinderblocks for the exterior of the home then use fire resistant treated lumber(not pressure treated like for outdoor use). Add a metal roof and you’ve got yourself a much more wind and fire resistant structure. Those concrete slab and cinderblock built homes can be made to withstand earthquakes as well.

    Tip up concrete structures were started in the mid 40’s. My grandfather was one of the first in CA to do it. Made his mark on the west coast doing it.
    It definitely has its application when concrete costs are low. Concrete hasn’t been cheap for a long time. It also doesn’t do well on shifty hillsides in earthquake country.

      I've thought the same thing. Misplaced trust. Those California liberals see government as the solution to everything and that government knows better. Then they get wiped out, lose everything, and blame climate change instead of the "fire retardants" who screwed everything up. 🤷‍♂️

    They're called "snap ties", they hold the plywood together for the pour... After it's cured you use a wrench and snap the ends off to remove the plywood forms and reveal a fireproof concrete wall.... It's easy, expensive, and strong!!😎👍

It was an awful bit, and was only bitter, and ugly. I was uncomfortable to watch at my friend’s house. I don’t think he had much work of any kind for a while after that Super Bowl. He also seemed to be drunk during it.
