Adam Carolla is a comedian, actor, radio personality, television host, and best-selling author. He currently hosts "The Adam Carolla Show," a free daily comedy-focused podcast that receives more than 30 million downloads a month. 

Before all of that, Adam earned a living "digging ditches and swinging hammers" on construction sites throughout Southern California. Once his comedy and entertainment career took off, he leveraged those experiences into television programs including TLC's The Adam Carolla Project (2005), featuring Adam and his old construction buddies remodeling and flipping his childhood home; Spike TV's Catch a Contractor (2014-2016) where he busted shady contractors and made them fix their shoddy work; and Adam Carolla and Friends Build Stuff Live (2017), where he coached celebrity guests through various DIY challenges.
