"No, the veteran comic was disgusted by Newsom's appearance on the All the Smoke podcast this past weekend, with Carolla on Monday blasting Newsom as an opportunistic chameleon who will say whatever he needs to in order to win people over momentarily. That was the case on the podcast, Carolla said, where Newsom told ex-NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson about how he grew up hustling and was out there kind of raising myself."
"You should know his dad was lead counsel for Getty Oil. Getty is like the richest family in the country, maybe in the world his dad was a judge and a lawyer, and the Gettys were close family friends, Carolla said, before playing a clip of Newsom's ATS appearance. Carolla continued: And when [Newsom] started his winery at 25, he got the money from the Getty family just like you and I did when we were 25."
Adam Carolla criticized Gavin Newsom's depiction of a hardscrabble Bay Area upbringing and called Newsom an opportunistic chameleon who tailors narratives to win people over. Newsom recounted growing up on Kraft macaroni and cheese and described raising himself, and that podcast clip drew viral attention including 1.8 million X views. Carolla emphasized Newsom's affluent background, noting his father served as lead counsel for Getty Oil and that the Getty family were close family friends. Carolla pointed out Newsom's Marin County upbringing and Larkspur's roughly $135,000 median household income and mocked a mid-80s photo of a young Newsom.
