Tonight, Comedy Central aired its roast of David Hasselhoff. And while roasts are known for offensive humor, Lisa Lampanelli may have gone a bit far, with jokes about the holocaust, blacks, Roger Ebert's cancer, Haiti, the oil spill, and more. Adam opens by discussing his recent conversation with documentarian Ken Burns. Adam says that race came up, and that he thought Ken said something disturbing. They also talk about which celebrities the valet guy thought were assholes, and Adam asks Teresa a very sensitive question about his daughter’s bathroom habits.



Jumping into the news, the first story revolves around the Bachelorette finale. They also listen to a breakup clip from the show, which Teresa said she did not see coming. The second part of the news is too depressing, so T asks Adam to chose between the two stories. . The one he picks involves six kids drowning while trying to save their friend, and this sends Adam off on a huge rant about parents focusing on unimportant things like tap water and third-hand smoke, instead of more practical things like keeping the pool gate closed.

Queen of Mean Lisa Lampanelli enters the studio and wastes no time joking about her fiances big balls. She offers her thoughts on The Bachelorette finale, and everyone gets to talking about all kids of trash TV; including The View and Real Housewives of New Jersey. One caller is concerned with his girlfriend’s family who speaks french in front of him, and another is wondering if he should break up with his girlfriend before going off to college. Adam and Lisa delve farther into their own experiences of previous roasts, and talk about the importance of prepping your material instead of improvising. Lisa says the jokes were so great this year, they didn’t even hurt her feelings; unlike past participant Pam Anderson, who almost cried. And they watch her on Comedy Central’s roast of David Hasselhoff, airing Sunday, August 15th.
