Adam Carolla Snubs Hollywood With New Venture: ‘We Don’t Really Need Them’

Podcasting king pitches TheWrap his vision for new venture Chassy Media

[...] the “Man Show” co-creator has “been through every sort of delivery system there could be” in his Hollywood and Hollywood-adjacent career, as he put it during our conversation.

Careful to point out that those at FilmBuff are “not bad guys,” Carolla remembered receiving a $17,000 bill from the company’s trailer house for his Winning:

[...] he and director Nate Adams — his partner in Chassy Media, pictured above (left) — churned out what Carolla called a “really good” trailer themselves.

[...] to how terrestrial radio birthed podcasting, TV has given rise to video on-demand services.

A decade ago, Carolla was early on in “Crank Yankers” and hadn’t released his first independent film, “The Hammer,” yet.

While at launch, Chassy is essentially an automotive-based (get it, chassis?) content delivery machine that Carolla knows could — and probably should — evolve.

There’s a lot of gear-heady stuff, but we want to make stuff that you could watch with your wife or girlfriend.

While Carolla says he has personally received strong feedback on both docs — his first two attempts ever — “The 24 Hour War” is getting the higher praise, including from this writer.

Additional releases on Chassy will also include “The Bug Movie,” which chronicles the history of the Volkswagen Bug and stars Ewan McGregor, the coming “Willy T. Ribbs Story,” and eventually a documentary about legendary Los Angeles radio station KROQ, where Carolla first ranted on a live mic.
