From Wiki: Destiny’s Child was an American girl group whose final and best-known line-up comprised Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams. Formed in 1997 in Houston, Texas, Destiny’s Child members began their musical career as Girl’s Tyme, formed in 1990, comprising Knowles, Rowland, LaTavia Roberson, and LeToya Luckett among others.[1] After years of limited success, the quartet were signed in 1997 to Columbia Records and Music World Entertainment as Destiny’s Child. Destiny’s Child was launched into mainstream recognition following the release of their best-selling second album, The Writing’s on the Wall (1999), which contained the number-one singles “Bills, Bills, Bills” and “Say My Name“. Despite critical and commercial success, the group was plagued by internal conflict and legal turmoil, as Roberson and Luckett attempted to split from the group’s manager Mathew Knowles, citing favoritism of Knowles and Rowland.
In early 2000, both Roberson and Luckett were replaced with Williams and Farrah Franklin; however, Franklin quit after five months, leaving the group as a trio. Their third album, Survivor (2001), which contains themes the public interpreted as a channel to the group’s experience, contains the worldwide hits “Independent Women“, “Survivor” and “Bootylicious“. In 2002, they announced a hiatus and re-united two years later for the release of their fourth and final studio album, Destiny Fulfilled (2004). Destiny’s Child has sold more than sixty million records worldwide to date.[2]Billboard magazine ranks the group as one of the greatest musical trios of all time,[3] the ninth most successful artist/band of the 2000s,[4] placed the group 68th in its All-Time Hot 100 Artists list in 2008[5] and in December 2016, the magazine ranked them as the 90th most successful dance club artist of all-time.[6] The group was nominated for 14 Grammy Awards, winning twice for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals and once for Best R&B Song.

An episode first recovered over a decade ago, now with a huge audio upgrade and 100% complete with the missing 13 minutes finally restored. Caprice proved to be quite the divisive guest in her only appearance on the show although she did leave a drop or two. Overall fans seem to agree that she was standoffish and angry, some listeners think Adam was the source of any negativity. Once again listen and decide for yourself.

An episode I first recovered a decade ago. Now 100% complete, with the missing 3 minutes restored. Josie is making her only appearance on CLL. She’s a huge fan of the show and a guest like no other, this is the definition of a “Sleeper Classic” episode and guest. She’s dynamite!
From Wiki: Josie Rebecca Davis (born January 16, 1973) is an American actress, best known for her role as Sarah Powell in the television sitcomCharles in Charge from 1987 to 1990.
An episode I first recovered 7 years ago. Recorded off the KROQ broadcast replacing the partial recording that preceded it. Now remastered like it’s never been before, breaks restored. 100% complete. This is Episode #4 of the 18 DAG appearances on CLL during Adam’s era, there are 14 more to go. This is the first DAG ep where things really start to build in regards to the rapport and friendship among the 3 men along with DAG’s freedom to cut loose and go sick with the comedy, he lets his hands go in this one! This episode also features an ominous mention of Cuba Gooding Jr. which will payoff in about 2 years when DAG returns heartbroken and manic due to a relationship issue. Simply the best guest in Loveline history and he’s only on less than 1% of the episodes, so any complaints about him are more reflective of the very few people complaining than his performances on air. DAG once said these visits to Loveline were among his best comedic work and now we all get to relive them and enjoy the brilliance! CLL #1142 is still missing from the archive, unclear if it was a ‘Best Of’ recording or a new episode with guest Andy Lauer making his 2nd and final appearance.

Outing to the swamp strip club goes weirdly wrong, they must get revenge.
Side trip to sexual objectification and vintage bush, something that would have to be explained today and the invention of the glory hole.
