Adam Corolla (More commonly known as Adam Carolla) (born May 27, 1964) is a comedian, television and radio performer. He is known for co-hosting the The Man Show (on Comedy Central), but has left due to the quitting of his good friend and co-host Jimmy Kimmel, even after reportedly being offered $50,000 an episode to continue. Currently he is co-hosting Loveline, a radio program produced by Westwood One Entertainment. Also co-hosting the show is Dr. Drew Pinsky, Board Certified Physician, and addiction medicine specialist.

Adam, along with Jimmy Kimmel created another TV show Crank Yankers for Comedy Central.

The product of a dysfunctional family, Adam was on his own at the age of 18, where after graduating high school he worked as a carpet cleaner, carpenter, and a boxing instructor. It wasn't until the latter when (in his late twenties) he was discovered by Jimmy Kimmel.

Adam is an Atheist, but by his physical appearance is commonly mistaken for Jewish.

Adam and Jimmy are the heads of Jackhole Productions.
