Adam Carolla Podcast Tops iTunes Store.

It took less than a week after its debut, Adam Carolla Podcast tops iTunes Store Podcast Chart.

adamcarolla_podcast_itunes

The recently laid-off by CBS Radio, Adam Carolla brings his shows exclusively on podcast. Recorded from Carolla’s own home, the podcast should help fans of the show from grieving from the show cancellations. Carolla is actually still under contract with CBS Radio until the end of 2009, thus the podcast will be commercial free. Since it is no longerbroadcasted on terrestrial radio, the show is no longer bound by FCC rules. That means no more bleeping and more swearing. Take that, FCC!

Leo Laporte mentioned Adam Carolla Podcast on TWiT 184.
