Of course it’s a testament to Jay that he’s considered ‘A Car Guy’ instead of the huge Celebrity he is! So glad he’s OK. That could have been much worse!! Looking forward to many more adventures with Jay!!

Christmas of 95 (6th grade)I got a 13" TV. I stayed up passed my bedtime every night after that to watch Leno. He'll always be the best to me

Jay is probably one of my favorite guests to watch in an interview. He’s just authentic & wise. He’s one of the only celebrities that would take a pay cut in order to keep his staff working.

Jay, there are literally millions of people who are fond and thankful for the entertainment and down-to-earthness you have brought into their lives. Many millions have been - and are - praying for you. Do not forget that.

I feel Jay is the guy you meet on the street and mention cars and find yourself 2 hrs later still talking. Seems to be a totally down to earth person. Glad he is recovering well and wish him the best.

Glad Jay is doing well. Such a humble guy, one of the rare down to earth celebs.

One of the funniest comedians too!!! Great storyteller too. Glad he’s better too.

Jay is THE most real person to ever become outrageously successful and I have never seen the man go more than 10 seconds without smiling and I love him for those reasons. You can't find a more deserving person than Mr. Leno. The world needs people like him.

His KZread car show changed my life and stoked a love for cars since I was like 10… I love this guy. As a car guy, it gets no better- this guy’s ability to help grow car culture and embody what it is we love about them is unmatched. So glad he’s alright. Just so grateful he’s around at this point.

When I read the complaints about Jay not disclosing what he plans to do with a private, major investment of his at some date in the future, I first think of his privacy. If I had a fraction of what he's invested in his collection (OK, a VERY tiny fraction), I certainly wouldn't be broadcasting what my financial future would be. It's no body else's business. With all the crap being broadcast these days about individual's private information (private or public individuals), one of the last things I'd want to do is post that sort of info on the internet. Leave him alone! Many of us who enjoy Jay's presentations very much appreciate his efforts and thank him greatly for his time (and investment)!!

Jay is the last of the great late-night comedians that could make us laugh at both sides of politics and you never knew his personal opinion. The current group of asshats could learn a lot from Jay if they gave a damn. They don't.

Adam, this is the best interview of Jay I've ever heard. Great job! I learned more about him than ever before. He was relaxed which is kudos to you as well! Cheers.

Jay was my first favorite comedian. I got the chance to meet him in 2012. He even bumped up our seats to front row. Awesome dude!

The World needs more people like Jay Leno. Not enough superlatives to describe him. Just wonderful.

Great to see Jay!

Jay is one amazing individual!! Much respect for him!! ❤️❤️❤️

Great interview , glad to see Jay is doing good. Don’t always get to catch his show so I just binge watch it on YT. For me it is the best show out there, no politics, pc or sniveling just cars and why we love them.

Amazing, I was under a car and pulled a hot radiator hose, and burned the sht out of my stomach, blisters covered my whole stomach, morphine was my only savior. The casual stoic way Jay talks about his burns gives me an entirely new respect for this formidable man.

Loved to hear John Pinette referenced. That guy was so damn funny.

Resilience should be the theme of this show. If parents and society continue to shelter young people, they struggle to cope with life's hardships. Jay is a prime example of someone who continues to take risks (even in his 70's), and when things literally blow up in his face, he just dusts himself off and keeps on trucking. Great interview and great example.

Yes!! No Bald or Gina for Jay's interview 🤘🤘🤘✊✊✊

Adam you can't beat this interview. Love Jay Leno... Thank you!

Great interview with Jay. Too bad he didn’t have kids. He would of made a great father.

Jay Leno is a legend!

Jay's the most humble celebrity, and interesting to hear stories from. American treasure

When Jay said he got the skin grafts from dead comedians it really made me laugh. Thank God His friend Dave was there, and they knew what to do. We cant stand to lose some one like Jay , We've lost too many funny people lately. Without even knowing it Jay made my day a little better . hes looking great.

So nice to see Jay on the show. It seems like the healing is going well. 😀

But i got a show tonight, and drives himself in. Jay is a bad ass.

Very happy to see Jay is back to his best ! Some good life lessons in this chat with Adam

I completely agree with Jay and Adam about this generation. All i thought about as a teen was the independence that a car and license would bring to me. None of the teens I know are interested in cars at all. And not only that, a lack of curiosity and independent thought, no ability to problem solve. It's kind of worryingly.

Gives a whole new meaning to... “give me some skin!!” Glad you are doing ok Jay!!! Thanks for having him on Adam!

Jay is so humble............... Thank you Adam and Jay...!!!

Jay looks great ‼️ I'm so glad he's doing well. What a genuinely good man.

That's about as candid and behind the curtains as it gets from Jay, great conversation. Two very interesting men, Adam was fantastic from his command post as usual. Would love a shoot with them on a Saturday doing anything cars!

this is why i love listening to Adam Carolla he gives me Valuble information in a entertaining way

Jay is truly the last of the honorable people left in show business. Very few people have the honor & moral character that he has in society. That's why were in the situation in society where lies are truth & good is evil & vice versa.

I grew up with Leno and I like him more now than ever actually

Jay is in a constant state of humble, and I think he’s probably feeling just fine, but I’d like to be his therapist and figure it out once and for all lol

That’s an interview well worth time spent on. Thank you! ❤

This interview cements it. Leno is an awesome human being.

One of the best conversations on any channel on any topic I’ve seen/listened to. Adam and Jay could have held my attention span for hours more. Thanks. And yes, glad to know Jay was as fortunate as he was/is with his recovery. Many are not anywhere near that lucky and I do sense he knows that.

Who else fast forward the video to the Jay talking part?

Jay like all of us from New England are use to pain and suffering. Total Badass. Love the John Pinette reference.

Love you Mr. Leno…so glad you can continue your fulfilled life AND film what you are doing so all can enjoy!

Loved this! Thank you. Always liked Jay. Great man. He & his wife are good ppl!

Adam is so much better by himself

What a great interview, Jay is a class act, Adam you're so respectful, love how you interact with Jay, I really enjoyed watching it.

Jay is a fabulous human being, such a strength,such a courage, such a discipline and humanity.He is a model to all of us!So happy he is back, miraculously quickly healed.Wonderful interview

G thank you for your patience with this guy and for doing the interview I felt terrible when you came home from the hospital and they were just all bombarding you on and you are such a nice person anyway I wish you the best glad you’re well. Does Adam Carroll never remember you have so much patience to put up with this interview thank you so much and I always liked your honesty

I look forward to the day when The Adam Carolla Show begins posting to Rumble. The growth potential there is as big or higher than here, even now. You'd be Welcomed there with open arms whereas google is pretty much the antithesis or everything Adam rants about.

It sucks that Jay got injured but I think it's kinda cool. I really enjoy working on cars and motorcycles. Hope when I'm Jay's age I'm still turning wrenches.

Great show today. Two great guests. Jay is just a cool dude and Lewis has a very good podcast.

That you for this interview with Jay. Thank God he is recuperating well.

So glad Jay is doing well and he didn't skip a beat making us laugh. Heartbroken over his injury, so much love for Jay and his recovery from the burns, looking good Jay!

I wish I lived close to Jay as I'd swing by to say hi, talk about cars/bikes and tell him my stories. He's the uncle/father/friend/etc I never had but wished I did. Could learn so much from him and hopefully give something back to him as well.

He looks great, glad he healed up.

Great show! Leno is one of the best there is, so is Adam. Both car guys! A coincidence? I think not. And as for Jay I’m so glad he’s recovered.

Best interview with Leno I have ever seen. Really cool. Thanks.

Jay Leno is the best.

This is a great interview. Good job to the team!

Jay Leno you are the man

I am such a fan of Jay. Just a fan of him as a human being. He's so, so great!!!! So happy to know he wasn't badly hurt.

Jay is a superhero. Lots of wisdom in this interview.

Loved the interview with Jay. Mostly never hear this type of conversation. Thanks guys

THESE guys are my kinda guys. Jay & Adam- Intelligent , while self effacing, many interests but have hard earned abilities. Good examples. So many idiots out there with more bravado, I love knowing there are guys who've worked into success & not let it make them too insulated. Jay's a GREAT Comic & Corolla was as good at radio as it got.

THANKS FOR HAVING mR LENO ON YOUR SHOW. I AM APPRECIATIVE OF ALL JAY GIVES TO US CAR GUYS. HE IS THE LAST GREAT AMBASSADOR OF THE CAR HOBBY. HE COULDN'T CARE LESS WHAT THE VALUE OF A VEHICLE IS IN DOLLARS, BUT LIKE HE SAID IT'S THE STORIES ABOUT THE CAR THAT MATTERS. I'M SAD TO THINK OF A WORLD WITHOUT JAY IN IT. PUT ON YOUR GOGGLES!!!! LOL

I've never been into late night shows and I'm definitely not a car guy, but Jay was a great guest and this episode was good pod.

Leno was certainly older than my generation of comics that I like so I havent really heard him speak much but that was great interview. solid dude

Jay not subjecting his body to drugs is commendable. So glad he’s doing better.

WAITED ALL WEEK FOR THIS!

Just an excellent interview!! I enjoyed both of you! And Jay…. That pain tolerance! Bad ass!

I used to watch Jay Leno in India in 2000s as a late teen in morning during breakfast since it used to be morning there, i used to go to college late.

True car guys always drive themselves to the hospital. What a legend. I'm glad you are ok

What cani say but I truly admire Mr Jay Leno and have learned some important lessons about car repairs and of course the antique car business this interview made me have a great appreciation for honesty and life's ups and downs I can't express my thoughts any more IM out of WORDS thanks so much G☆

I just got done reading in the Bible how Jesus was tortured and mocked before he was crucified so to cheer myself I watched Leno’ s interview here and was severely shocked when you asked him about religion and he said he is not religious at all. Jay Leno was my go to comedian now all I can see in my mind when Jesus returns to earth Jay Leno and John Cleese my other ex loved comedian will reject Jesus! Thank you for bringing that out even though I lost my last comedian I loved the most.

I'm glad he's alright. Take care both of you guys. Hope you guys still have many years to come.

Well there was an hour of greatness there. Lead by actions not by words, and Jay lives it. I love Sunday night, or Monday mornings when Leno's Garage gets posted to KZread, and Uncle Jay takes you into his wonderfull world of cars, bikes, steam engines, airplane engines, etc, etc! I can't begin to tell you how happy I am to see him doing so well. This was my Christmas present, and I thank you. W

Thanks for the great interview with Jay Leno! Glad to see he is doing well. As far as your conversation near the end of the interview dealing with kids being afraid or not wanting to get in a car or do certain things the last decade or so, it's been called "helicoptering". One or both of the parents hover over the kid(s) to keep them ultra safe & afraid to get in harms way or offend anyone. God forbid they drank from a hose or stayed out & played ball till it gets dark! It seems part of the newer generations where everybody has to get a trophy so nobody's feelings gets hurt. I guess it's the wussification of our culture.

Working on a steam car in 2022 - gotta love Jay!

The reason why Leno is so popular, other than being funny, was that you kind of believe the two of you could be friends. Letterman would avoid you at all costs.

Interesting hearing from Leno directly. Great interview

Lewis must feel so great that Bryan gave his podcast his blessing(constantly promoting his own book)........

Nice to see Jay is ok 👍🏼 Good show Adam 🤙🏼

Thanks Jay for doing this interview, I was wondering how you were doing. Your looking great and can't wait to see you driving more cars and showing us them! A+++ A1

Thoughts on the boys/cars convo: I have 2 boys (young, under 5) and a 19 year old nephew. I run my own business and have a handful of old cars I work on and drive. My wife has a nicer/newer family car but everything I own and drive is ancient. My boys jump into my car and do the steering wheel thing, they talk to me about them, they ask to ride in them, they'll play with their cars and pretend to be wrenching on them, etc. My nephew only recently got any interest in cars and got a license. The nephew I brought on last summer as a paid apprentice to show him some job skills, he's mostly a video game guy. He stayed with us about 3-4 days a week for several months. As part of earning his keep I had him help me redo my classic Olds 442. Sanding down frame rails, undercoating, suspension install on all 4 corners, transmission install, exhaust, etc. I also had him help with some tuning on an old Z28 I have and an old chevy custom K20 pickup. We worked on old cars, we drove old cars, we did some full throttle runs on old cars. My goal was very simple...this kid had no love for cars and I was at least going to introduce him. No cars like this at his mom and dad's house. At the end of the summer....he wanted a car, but an older car. He's a very smart kid, he loves to DIY stuff...he did not know about this world. He's used to these rolling appliances on 4 wheels that all look the same, are inaccessible to the end user and don't have any soul in them. Car guys, tell me 5 new cars you'd be excited about if you could send them back in time to when you were a kid. Now pick 5 under $80k. Then try picking 5 that the average kid comes in contact with in a middle class household. We killed new car culture with a glut of EPA regulations and crossover SUVs and then wonder why the kids checked out. You're a car guy but you need to realize the average kid has a dad who can't change a flat tire much less a spark plug. And the average family can't afford a fun car unless it's used and dad can handle the work himself. There used to be dozens of fun cars within reach of a middle class family. Also....my boys don't get unlimited screen time. My nephew did growing up. My boys I spend time with, rough housing and tossing a football around, toy cars and pedal cars, etc. When they get TV time it's not Blippie or anything stupid on KZread that infantilizes people. It's about the kind of stuff boys thought was awesome for generations, the stuff I liked when I was a kid. Maybe I'm wrong and they'll hate cars in 15 years but I wouldn't bet on it. I've seen too many people addicted to the screens in the generation between me (millennial) and my kids. We are trying hard to get them hooked on the real world.

I spent hours laughing to myself as a kid on the toilet looking at a book with images of Jay Leno and a news article with his comment on the wacky stuff news put out and probably read through it five times over those years along with Garfield and and Gary Larson

I am 56 and learned early that even if invited - you get into a car and break something, either the parents OR the guy are going to be absolutely PISSED. It is the same reason I do not touch other cars or boats (my dad used to race a boat) - in case you damaged something you could not afford to break. For the average person who has no ability to fix or have things fixed - you don't touch those items - even if invited.

I can listen to Jay forever . He's a mensch .

He's so nonchalant about it. He is so much higher in my book now. Stay up Jay!
