Comedian Adam Carolla — whose epic rants about the Occupy Wall Street movement and government intrusion have previously been featured on The Blaze — this week gave his take on Dharun Ravi, the former Rutgers University student found guilty earlier this month in a webcam spying case after his gay roommate committed suicide.

Speaking on his podcast, “The Adam Carolla Show,” Carolla went off on the media’s coverage of the case, accusing them of promoting the idea that “we’re a homophobe society.”

Adam Carolla is a force. Super smart and preternaturally hilarious. His daily rants are Must-Listen podcasting.

The Ace nails it again.

Trayvon case is yet another spin it to motivate the Dem base b.s. Fest

Concur. I’m a huge fan, too, and listen to the podcast daily. Hilarious and informative. Makes John Stewart look like a troglodyte!

Thanks OddLane.

There's no such thing as homophobia.

is there a direct link???

You’re right. The correct word is homosexualphobia, but that is truly not likely. homosexualdisgustia would be a better, if awkward, coinage, but the Demwits probably couldn’t spell it.

I saw his podcast live at Caroline's. Simply amazing.

[Dr. Pritchett]

You know, I swear I am one of his biggest fans. Always have been since the Loveline days. However, I am really running out of patience for Allison’s continual interruptions during these podcasts, especially the live-casts from Caroline’s. I tried to get through the Todd Barry live show and he is probably my favorite stand-up. Allison interrupted him so much, he hardly had a chance to talk and she had a 5% hit rate at best. Really awful. I am totally bummed out about it. I love Adam and Todd. It’s like he’s running a improv training camp for Allison and she steps all over the pros. Sad.
