Hismom was a sex therapist and his dad was a psychologist, and he got wherehe is today, he would say, in spite of them. After Adam graduated fromNorth Hollywood High School, he spent a very short time in JuniorCollege. Dropping out from there, he worked a memorable stint as a carpetcleaner. Later in life, Adam worked as a skilled carpenter/builder,becoming a boxing trainer in his free time. Adam's early studies inentertainment were with The Groundlings, an improv group which hasproduced a number of other famous comedic personalities of today. WhenJimmy Kimmel was challenged to a boxing match at L.A. radio station KROQin 1994, Adam was his trainer. Jimmy helped Adam get a job on KROQ's"Kevin and Bean Morning Show". It was on KROQ that Dr. Drew (Drew Pinsky,the original and still host of the Loveline radio show) heard Adam andliked his style. In 1995, Drew gave Adam the job of co-hosting Lovelineon the radio. It was at this time that Loveline became syndicatednationally in the USA. In 1996, Adam and Drew were given a "Loveline"(1996) television show on MTV. It was a popular late-night hour-longshow, which Adam and Drew co-hosted variously with Diane Farr, CatherineMcCord, Laura Kightlinger, and Kris McGaha. The MTV show ran for overfour years, ending in 2000, finally bowing out after what is regarded asa very successful run by MTV standards.
