He spent almost an hour talking about why he fired her on the Anthony Cumia episode. In short, he thought she wasn't really pulling her weight when it came to coming up with bits, doing improv on the show, adding anything during live shows. He also sensed that she wasn't a huge fan of his, never read his books or watched his tv show, never invited him to anything outside of work, was reluctant to associate her podcast with his name or chip in on the patent troll fight.
If this is all true, then bitch move by Ace. He talks about people being pussies so much, he needs to put his money where his mouth is with his own people. Yes, firing is uncomfortable, but he owed it to her to explain this face to face why he was firing her.

I've read plenty on Adam and Alison's sureddits, and the bullet points are this:
01/05/15 - Adam Carolla has the first podcast of the year, says Alison will not be apart of the show for 2015, wishes her well and says she would make a better lead than side kick. Gina Grad is hired as a temp news
girl
01/05 - 01/08 - various twitter updates by Alison imply that she was blind-sided by this, but seems upbeat about her situation. Fans start asking for a better answer
01/08 - Alison has her first ARIYNBF with the Thursday gang, goes into a bit more detail about the whole thing. Summary, while upset she's happy about the opportunity this presents for her own show (which she is now recording out of her house)
01/12 - Adam breaks his relative silence and goes on for about an hour on his podcast. He gives 10 reasons why she was fired, mainly because she doesn't have motor and did not back him or the Adam Carolla brand.
Since then Alison has not responded, just wished everyone well.
Adam fans are happy with the explanation, just not on how it was handled and don't seem crazy about the new girl.
Alison has picked up a ton of support, but keeping it is yet to be determined.
