On this episode of The commercial break. Welcome to Chile's. How many in your party? I'm in the industry. I DJ electronic music. I don't know if you also noticed it was electronic music playing inside the Chile's. So we'll take the nicest table you have. Chef's table, please. Right next to where they fry the awesome blossom. Only the finest awesome blossom sauce for us, please. We're in the industry. The next episode of The commercial break starts now. Yeah, boy. Oh, yeah, cats and kittens. Welcome back to another episode of The commercial break. I'm Brian Greene. This is the beautiful Kristen, Joy, Honeley, who also happens to be my best friend and my co-host. I love you very much. Best to you.

[00:00:59]

Best to you, Brian.

[00:01:00]

Best to you out there on the podcast universe. Okay. I promise I won't spend the whole episode on this. I promise. I've promised people. People are now getting irritated. So I promise I won't spend the whole time on this. But I do have to mention, did you see the craziness that went on with that Taylor Swift concert down in Brazil? Yes. Over the weekend? Yeah, I think so. That's nuts. Okay, so for those who are not in the loop, Taylor Swift, she's going to do a concert in Rio. Yeah. She's going to do it at a big stadium. The heat index on the day that she's supposed to do this concert, which is Saturday of this last weekend, the heat index, that is the humidity plus the temperature, the way it feels against your skin, 138 degrees Fahrenheit. That is fucking fire, dude.

[00:01:49]

Yeah, that's like fry an egg on the street.

[00:01:52]

The fry an egg on your head? Yeah. 138 degrees. There is no human that should be 138 degrees for an extended period of time. No. Wow. None whatsoever. People are waiting in line literally for weeks because it's all general admission on the floor, which first and foremost is an absolutely balls idea. Why in the world you would put general admission? For her show, for sure. For her show, for sure. They're insane over Taylor Swift. And so then to cram a bunch of people, but the promoters are trying to make as much money as they can. Ticket Masters are trying to make as much money as they can, Live Nation, all these people. An unfortunate incident occurred when one of the fans had some heat stroke and then passed away. Young girl. Okay, I can see that, yeah. Everybody's up in arms. Everyone's upset. They're opening up an investigation. So she makes some comment on her Instagram. I can't say much because I don't know much, but my heart is broken. Right. Then a couple of hours later, she cancels the concert. Everybody is, or not everybody, but some people are understandably upset. They came all the way to Brazil from other places around South America to see her, maybe even from, I don't know, across the ocean or whatever.

[00:02:59]

They have travel plans, they have hotels booked, they paid thousands of dollars for these tickets. They're upset that Taylor canceled this. They've been waiting in line for fucking weeks. They've been sitting in tents for weeks, waiting to get a good space. Then Taylor cancels the concert, and some people are understandably upset about the decision to cancel the concert. But they weren't giving out water. They closed the ventilation system so that the people outside of the Coliseum, the arena, could not hear the concert, so they closed the ventilation system. What? It's inhuman. It's inhumane what these people were doing, these concert promoters were doing. So she cancels the concert, people get all up in arms. I got to say something. She absolutely did the right fucking thing, but it was not her decision. I can promise you this right now. Taylor can scream and yell all she wants about, I want the concert, I don't want the concert. It's not up to her. It's up to the insurance companies, the management, and the promotion. Unless Taylor herself is sick or she just walks off stage for some reason, these are decisions that are made amongst many people, including government officials.

[00:04:07]

This isn't like Taylor's going, I don't think it's safe. Let's not do this. It is insane to put on a concert like this. Let's call the insurance company and make sure it's covered. That and only that will get a concert canceled in these situations. In my experience, I'm sure Jeff could probably back me up on this, he buys rain insurance and risk insurance and all that stuff. Yes. It's crazy expensive. It's terribly expensive for all this. But this is exactly why you buy it, in case of shit, in case shit goes down. Somebody died. It's 138, feels like 138 degrees out there. The local promoters and security officials are making terrible decisions about people's health and safety. Rightfully, in their right mind, someone called the insurance company and said, if we cancel the concert, will we get our money? Will we get paid back? The insurance company probably said yes, because it feels like 138 fucking degrees outside. That's insane. In the wake of this, the Brazilian government says not only about Taylor Swift's concert, but all events across the nation must provide free, bottled, clean drinking water to anybody that asks for it. That makes sense.

[00:05:19]

You got to open the ventilation system. You got to open the ventilation system. That's like, you're going to kill people. You're going to kill people. There's no doubt about it. Yeah. Yeah, like how anybody... I understand if I'm sitting there and I spent thousands of dollars on a hotel room and tickets and all that, but it's not what we're dying for. No, I was.

[00:05:39]

Going to say there's been a death, there could be more. Yeah. Yeah, I think they made the right decision. Well, that whole trip had reschedules and cancelations and things, because that's when Travis flew down.

[00:05:52]

Asher was explaining to me that it's just a different world. I mean, obviously it's a different world. It's a different culture, it's a different world. And she said that in all of these concerts in Venezuela, it was all general admission. And that she went to some concert, and I can't remember the name of the artist, but she went to some concert that was equally as popular in Venezuela as Taylor Swift is here or across the world. And that people waited in line for hours and hours and hours to get up and get a good seat. She was with one of her friends. And when they got inside and they were waiting for the concert to start, it was so crowded and there was so much body heat that she looked over and her friend looked like a ghost. She was not well, and she was swaying back and forth. Astrid had to grab her, yank her, pull her a couple hundred yards back to the back of the-.

[00:06:37]

Just to get.

[00:06:38]

Some space and air.

[00:06:38]

Just to get some.

[00:06:39]

Space and get somebody to help. The security came over, they helped, some medical personnel helped, and she was unwell. Astrid was like, For the rest of the concert, we just stood in the back. It's not worth dying for.

[00:06:51]

No, just to be up closer.

[00:06:52]

Yeah, we've got to settle down. Is Taylor Swift. We have Spotify. We could figure this out. We could have a good night with Taylor. We don't need to be grabbing ourselves. But even when in the concert that Astrid and I went to, the Taylor Swift concert that we went to, there were seats all across the floor. Everybody in the building had a seat. There was no one standing up to see Taylor Swift. I mean, everyone was standing up, but there was no one standing without a.

[00:07:16]

Seat, right?

[00:07:16]

Right, randomly. Yes, but the amount of body heat that was generated in that sofaie stadium that was airconditioned, by the way, and it was a lovely night. It wasn't particularly warm outside. It wasn't super hot. I got to tell you, it was very warm in there, very warm, and people were pushing... The rows of seats were tied together. They had these clips on them that were tied to get locked together, and there was those folding chairs. We were in a row that probably had 20 chairs. We were up closer to the stage on the floor had 20 chairs locked together. People were, as the show started, were literally- Surging forward. -surging forward and pushing the chairs forward. By the time by the middle of the concert, we had six inches of total room available to stand, and it would be uncomfortable to sit. I know, but people go fucking nuts. They go fucking nuts. It's just a concert. Now, I understand this. I was in 33 P.

[00:08:16]

That's right. I do get it.

[00:08:17]

I do get how people can-.

[00:08:20]

Go wild.

[00:08:20]

They go wild, Chrissy. They went wild. They literally did not provide medical attention when I split my head wide open or the time my ear was bleeding on stage. No one provided medical attention.

[00:08:36]

Well, there was the smoke machine, too, that was creating-.

[00:08:40]

It created a lot of chaos on stage, yes. So much chaos that I couldn't see the stage, and I walked directly off it. He's like, Oh. Wow, man, he really committed to that song, didn't he? You see him? Oh, look at his head. His brain's coming out like a little fried egg there. Should we help him? Nah, he's all right. It's part of the show. I don't know. I can't tell. There's too much fog in here. Why so much fog machine? So much fog. Six people watching. It was not worth it. Speaking of crowded events, did you check out Formula 1, F1?

[00:09:23]

I did not watch. What? I didn't watch it, but I read about it, and people were up in arms, too, about the Vegas. I went.

[00:09:32]

To Vegas like three months ago, was it? Four months ago? Yeah, that's right. You did a podcast conference. For that podcast conference in the world's worst Roach Motel. It was a terrible hotel. Terrible. Text me and I'll let you know which one to avoid. I'm not going to say it here online, but it was terrible. It was gross, nasty. And so we went in all over Las Vegas. Every street we drove on had some construction going on. And the cab drivers or the Uber drivers kept complaining about all this construction. But none of them made it quite clear that F-1 was coming. And since I'm such a sports guy, I have no fucking clue, right? I don't know what F1 racing is. I didn't get into it. I didn't watch that Netflix. It's good, actually. Is it? Okay, I'm going to watch it. We couldn't figure out why. All this fencing, all these things are being temporary structures are being constructed. I couldn't figure it out. I figured it out on Saturday when I saw the F1. And I'm here, I'm editing. I'm actually not editing. I'm trying to fix the wires in the studio for the three millionth time in the TCB history.

[00:10:38]

And I'm watching a football game here, Chrissy. I'm watching a football game. Yes, I am. I'm watching The Oregon Steak Game. And then all of a sudden- What made.

[00:10:46]

You watch that?

[00:10:47]

It.

[00:10:48]

Was just on, or you had a steak in it?

[00:10:50]

Can I be honest with you? No, I had no steak in it. I thought I was a gambler.

[00:10:53]

You called.

[00:10:54]

Your bookie. I only take bets that I know I'm going to lose. That's right.

[00:10:58]

That's the safe.

[00:10:59]

Way to do things. That's right. I usually do that with my family savings and light.

[00:11:05]

Rent money. Yes, your nest egg.

[00:11:07]

My nest egg. It's a podcast. He's going to crack that nest egg wide open. You know what? I'm going to be honest with you. Here's the reason why I started watching college football this year more than I have in past years. I'm watching the dogs, and then I'm trying to get in on some of the more important games, because every time that my brothers get together, they're all talking college football, and I have no fucking clue. I want to just, for once, be able to join in on this conversation or at least understand what they're talking about. But when you have no idea who's playing for what team or even what team has what color jersey, then you're really not informed. Right. Even my jokes aren't funny when I don't know what I'm talking about, which is half the commercial break. Now I understand why people don't like it. But the truth is that I just want to fit in a little bit. I want to be able to talk. For 20 years they've been watching this college football. Twenty years, they're invested in this Georgia Bulldogs. Twenty years. Every Sunday they're talking about Saturday football.

[00:12:08]

Every Monday they're talking about Sunday football. I am just as clueless as I could be. I decided if I have the time, if it's not bothering my otherwise family events, then I'm just going to watch so I can be clued in. I was so proud. We had one of our Thanksgivings on Sunday, and I was so proud of myself because I'm like, Hey, Pat, what about the offensive line of Georgia Bulldogs this weekend, huh? And he's like, Yeah, they were really good. It was great. Do you know what an offensive line is? I have no clue, but I heard somebody say it on the...

[00:12:39]

I know it's a thing.

[00:12:40]

Yeah, I knew it's a thing. I was taking notes on the color commentary. I know there's a line, and there's an offense. And so whatever they do, that's a good thing. They look good. And it looked great. They did great. How about that option slot? How about the option slot? Patrick's like, What's an option slot? I don't know, slot options? You don't know? Option slot? You don't know? Come on, man. I thought you were a football guy. I read all upon it. It's an option slot. It's when you say, Hey, I'm an option slot. I don't know. I don't fucking know. It's when there's two girls at the bar with you, not just one. It's an option slot. I was so proud of myself. But then during watching one of these football games, I saw, Las Vegas F1 starts at 1:00 AM. I was like, 1:00 AM? What? Even for Vegas, that's super late. That's 10 o'clock at night. Who the fuck is watching this at 10 o'clock at night? In America, a sports event doesn't start at 10 o'clock at night. That's not it. But lo and behold, it started at 1 o'clock in the morning, so everybody else in the world could watch it at some appropriate time.

[00:13:41]

That makes sense.

[00:13:42]

But, man, they had an hour and a half long pre-race special, Chrissy. I don't get it. I don't get it. Guy was walking through the crowd. There was all the people were on the track looking at the cars or doing whatever they do. This guy was walking around with this bright green jacket. Apparently, he's a famous broadcaster for doing famous F1 guy. And his job is to go down on the track before the race, find famous people, and have exactly three seconds with them. And so he asks no questions that are important. He says he's doing this all off the cuff. He's literally having a, I don't know how to say it, like a stream of consciousness conversation going on with himself in between the people he can find. So here he is, ready? So let's pretend it's Chrissy Houdley. Okay, I think I see Chrissy Houdley over here. Let's go have a word with Chrissy. Chris, first time at F1. First time we're seeing you at F1. What do you think?

[00:14:33]

Looks.

[00:14:34]

Great. Fantastic. Okay, let's go. We had people all over the place. I can't even see. That guy's small. That girl's tall. I don't understand what she's wearing now. Look at those boots. Who wears boots? I've never seen something so crowded. I think a lot of these people are high on cocaine. If I'm being honest here, I need a drink. If these people would just move out of my way, where's Darren? Darren, get over here. Where's my producer? Darren? Oh, there's Darren. Shaquille O'Neal. Who are you running for? Who are you voting for? Who's going to win the race? Go F1. Fantastic. Amazing. Fantastic, Shaq. Thank you very much. God damn people in my way all the time who stepped on my foot. Stop it. I've had a whole career. I've made a career out of this. People don't respect me that he wasn't getting the attention that he wanted. So he was having this dream.

[00:15:11]

Of consciousness. He was talking.

[00:15:13]

He was talking, but he was like talking shit the entire time. He walks by Shaq. He asks Shaq a question. Shaq gives him a one-word answer and then walks by. Shaq has more important things to do than talk to the leprechaun in a green outfit with a microphone in his hand. And so this is what he says. He goes, Oh, no problem. I guess Shaq said this. He said, Go team Hamilton. That's what he said, the three words. Go team Hamilton. Right, Lewis Hamilton. So he says, Go team Hamilton. And so he goes, Go team Hamilton. I guess that's all I get out of Shaq today. It's okay. I've had a wonderful career. I guess it doesn't matter if you talk to me or if you don't. Just keep on moving on. I guess we've got more important people to talk to than ESPN, live across the world. Don't worry about it, Shaq. And I'm like, Holy shit. Who left this unhinged small man running around this track with all these celebrities? Who does that? Who is making these decisions? Espn? Somebody's got to get a hold of this guy. He's out of his brain, Chris.

[00:16:11]

He's out of his mind. He's talking to himself the whole time. They had 30 minutes of this uncut. They did not go to the studio. They did not go back to the other lady across the way. They didn't do anything. They just left it on him. For 30 minutes, they left it on him. He walked around the track. He talked to celebrities for less than five seconds, and then he made fun of the crowd the entire time. Don't understand why everyone's walking this way. It's that way. I can't get it. I've never seen a crowd like this. It's crazy. I guess Vegas is Vegas. It's all about the show. I thought to myself, if I'm F1, I'm pulling the plug on this motherfucker right goddamn now. Right goddamn now, that's for sure. Because he was a little unhinged, if I'm being honest.

[00:16:52]

Vegas got to him.

[00:16:54]

Vegas got to him. Okay, let's take our first break, and then we'll be right back with more shenanigans here on TCB. Hello again, my little podcast, pals. It's Christina.

This episode is sponsored in part by our good friends at Uncommon Goods. All right, Christmas is coming up. We're all doing the mad dash to figure out what everybody wants. Go to the stores, buy online, all that other stuff. But me personally, and my brothers can tell you this, I like to be very unique about my gift giving.

[00:18:12]

So unique that no one has any clue what I'm thinking when I get them a present. In other words, I get gag gifts every year for my brothers and some of my immediate family, and I always love to see their faces when they open up the gift. Disappointed they didn't get anything real, but they get a good chuckle nonetheless. I am so pleased that Uncommon Goods is now making it much easier for me to find these particular items. And it's not just about fun and gag gifts, they have everything: home items, decor, corporate gifts, jewelry. If you need it, they have it. This is a truly unique shopping experience. Everything you see is made by small artists and independent businesses. These items are often very unique and handmade. I was on the website this morning looking for my gag gifts, and they have a whole section of fun and quirky gifts. Two things stood out to me. Number one, they actually have a phone jail. It's like a cage, like a small cage with a phone holder in it for three or four phones, and then there's a lock. And if you have the key, no one's getting their phones.

[00:19:06]

I hope my wife never finds that particular gift. How about this one? An actual game, a board game called Gonjalan. That's going to be fun for all the kids. I really like this company, and they like you to get 15% off your next gift. Go to uncommongoods. Com/tcb. That's uncommongoods. Com/tcb for 15% off. Don't miss out on this limited-time offer, Uncommon Goods. We are all out of the ordinary, and that's something every TCB listener can agree upon. Again, go to uncommongoods. Com/tcb for 15% off your first gift. Go to this website. You'll have a ton of fun. And thank you to Uncommon Goods for being a sponsor of the commercial break. All right, Martin Brundel. Martin Brundel is the interviewer's name who's down on the grid. Martin Brundel. Martin Brundel. Good old Martin Brundel. Well, Grundelbundel. Yeah, he's a Grundelbundel for sure. He's a fussy Grundelbundel, too. I've had in these business for 40 years, Shaq. I deserve some respect. Please don't step on me. By the way, Shaq is the largest human being I have ever seen in my entire life.

[00:20:13]

Yeah, he's just all over large.

[00:20:15]

Yes. Martin was right about one thing. It was very crowded down on that track. Now, despite what I might... With my musings here on the commercial break, I actually have seen a few F1 races. I know Martin Brundels, he does his thing. He is a long time respected reporter. He gets to talk to all the celebrities while they're down in the grid, which is when they line up in their appropriate places in their boxes, and then people get to walk around if they have a certain past. There were thousands of people down there, and it seemed strange to have so many human beings walking around these cars as they're about to race. But when he talked to Shaq, here's what I noticed. Everybody is stuck. It's a big crowd, everyone's stuck. Martin's squeezing his way through. The cameraman's having a hard time. It really looks like an uncomfortable situation for him to be in. Shaq, however, the crowd literally parts for Shaq because he's so big, he's a giant among men. How big can a human being get? Shaq big. That's how big a human can get. That motherfucker is huge, and he looks so nice, but I guess he didn't like Martin.

[00:21:21]

I'm not sure. He had no interest.

[00:21:23]

Not time for Martin.

[00:21:24]

Yeah. I mean, listen, anybody else in their right mind, huge race in Vegas, live ESPN, F1, Skye sports across the world. Martin Bruel pays attention to you, gives you your 15 seconds when clearly millions and millions and millions of people around the world are watching this. Shaq is the only one who doesn't care because Shaq is the only one who doesn't need to care. He's like, I am famous no matter what, Martin. I don't need to talk to you. Go, Lewis Hamilton. That's it. That's all he said. Speaking of.

[00:21:54]

Famous- Well, he's done a lot here in Atlanta, too, just to make a point. Martin Bruel? No, Shaq. I'm just kidding. He just rebuilt that crispy cream, like one.

[00:22:02]

Of those OG ones. Yeah, the one down on Pons? Yeah. It looks good. He told a 60 Minutes reporter once, I'll never forget this, that he can eat three of those boxes in a sitting. I believe it. Yeah. He's like, I order three boxes, I'll eat them by myself. And he's into the Burger Kings. I met him one time. When we were working down at the radio station, he bought that Burger King. He was one of the... Remember he started... Oh, no, that was Magic Johnson. I'm sorry, Magic Johnson. Okay. Not just Kielandil, it was Magic Johnson, who's also a big human being, by the way. Yes. And then he bought a bunch of movie theaters, too. But one day I walked into that Burger King, and lo and behold, guess who's there? Shaq? No. Magic Johnson. No, Magic Johnson. He was recording a commercial or something. I don't know what he's doing. They have a camera crew with him. Speaking of famous all around the world, my.

[00:22:50]

Mother, we.

[00:22:51]

Had my mom's Thanksgiving on Sunday because it's a split family. I know a lot of people, this will resonate with a lot of people, split family. And when you have split family, the people with most children get to determine where you're going for the family holiday, you know what I'm saying? That's true, yeah. So everyone comes over to our house. It's just one of those things. It's easier for us to be here and let everyone else come over.

[00:23:10]

Rather than- To pack everything up and go. That's right.

[00:23:13]

And besides Blue, everyone is relatively well behaved. Oh, my God, Chrissy. I can't take it anymore. I just can't take it anymore. Blue is like, I don't know. She has doggy dementia or something. I feel like she's getting into Niko territory now because she is literally just barking at nothing. I think to myself, Blue, what's going on in that little brain of yours? We had a little conversation here in the studio the other night. I was so frustrated. You were in Blue? Yes. The whole studio broke. I had no idea why. I have to reset everything. It's a four-hour production. I really never got to the bottom of it. I just reset everything and it happened to work again. In my frustration, I say to myself, You know what? Petting a dog always releases some stress. Yeah, it does. Come here, Blue. Get up on my lap and let's pet. I'm petting Blue, and all of a sudden, she just pet. And I was like, Why are you barking? What? I'm barking right now. I swear she's going to try and come in this studio.

[00:24:08]

She'll push her.

[00:24:09]

Way in. Yeah, she'll push her way in. She loves to be right at Chrissy's feet. She knows Chrissy will treat her better than I will. Chrissy will yell at her.

[00:24:15]

She's got a cute.

[00:24:16]

Little fag. She's adorable. I don't know what's going on with her. Anyway, so everyone comes over. My mom's over here. My mom, ever since we recorded that last episode with her, where we were talking about the country peddler, she has been so persistent about hearing this particular episode. She wants to hear herself. She wants to hear herself. I can understand if I had been on something and it wasn't my normal day job, then I would want to hear myself also. Now I'm sick of hearing myself, but I'd want to hear myself. So my mom has been asking for weeks, Hi, how do I dial up the podcast? Is there a place where I can call and listen to it? I'm like, No, mom, we don't have that. That sounds cool, but no, we don't.

[00:25:00]

Are you unsettled too?

[00:25:02]

Yeah.

[00:25:03]

Right after Judge Judy.

[00:25:04]

It's Judge Judy. Can I play it after Judge Judy? Sure, mom. Try that. Just talk to your remote. She didn't even have one of those remotes you can talk to. But just press the remote and tell that you want to listen to the commercial break. So yesterday, the first thing she says when she walks in the door, I want to listen to the show. Can you put it on the podcast for me? And everybody's like, Oh, no. Everybody's like, Oh, come on, mom. No one wants to hear my podcast on Thanksgiving. No one. No one wants to hear my podcast on any other day. Not on Thanksgiving Day, not on any other day. Does anyone listen to Brian more than they have to? So after dinner, we've been playing music through this speaker. And I say she keepsasking. She keeps asking, she keeps asking, and I keep telling her, No, mom, I don't want to hear my own voice. Please, let me have one day where I'm not listening to my own bullshit. One of my brother's girlfriend is like, Oh, it's okay. Just put it on. All the kids are playing in the living room.

[00:25:58]

Just put it on. She can listen to it. My mom is in the dining room with my brother's girlfriend, Carrie-Anne. I put the speaker on the table. I press play, and instantaneously, I'm just too sick of it. I go, No, mom, no, honestly, let's not listen to this. It's an hour of bullshit. I don't want to listen to it. I want to hear it. I want to hear myself on the podcast. Is that? No, no, no. Astrid goes, Let me get a pair of earphones for your mom. Oh, there you go. Who's never worn earphones before. So Astrid has to put them in her ear, do the whole nine yards. Then we tee up the podcast on her phone. We show her hot. Well, Chrissy, I'm telling you what, for an hour, we didn't hear from my mom. My mom, except occasional laughing, she'd be like, You're so funny. She's not talking to anybody directly. Then she'd be like, Oh, that's really good. I like that one. Brian's so funny. That's all you hear coming from the living room, in the living room from the dining room is my mom randomly making comments about the podcast.

[00:26:51]

Oh, I remember that with Country Fiddler. Oh, that's crazy. She's so funny. My little boy comes up to me and he goes, Daddy? Yes, son. Why is grandma talking to herself? I was like, I don't know. Just leave her alone.

[00:27:05]

She was gone for.

[00:27:05]

A while. Sooner than later. Yeah. So first of all, we solved the problem. We need to have a break for my mom. We just put on the podcast. Exactly. But second of all, my mom just thought she was just so funny, and she thought you were so funny. She thought I was so funny. She was literally belly-wrapped.

[00:27:18]

I love that.

[00:27:18]

She loved it. She loved it.

[00:27:20]

So she says, Oh, nana, I got the podcast on my phone. Can you teach me how to download all of them? I'll listen to every one of them. And I'm like, No, mom. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no So she's been asking this morning. She's been texting me. And I just sent her a link to the website. And I'm like, oh, you can listen to it here. But my mom will have no idea what to do when she gets there. So I'm just going to keep telling her to press the... I'm going to go, Mom, press your remote control on your TV. Press your TV remote control.

[00:27:50]

And tell the phone. Hi, honey. How do I pay.

[00:27:53]

The podcast on the links? I don't have links on my phone. That's what she said yesterday. She goes, I don't have links on my phone. I'm like, Okay, well... Hi, honey. I've been trying to get the podcast. I have the links, but I don't know what to do. Okay, listen. Do you have your TV remote? Yeah. Okay, get your car keys. Okay, I got that. Do you have your key card to get into the building? Yeah, I got to go get that. Okay, what do you do? Tap the key card on your phone. Okay. Write this down, Mom. Okay, I'm writing. Okay, what I need you to do is tap the key card on your phone. Okay, I get that. Now, take your key fob, and I want you to press it three times until you hear the locking sound. Okay, hear the locking sound. All right, okay. Then take your TV remote. Okay, take the out. Yeah. Tell it to remote. Play the commercial break. And then I want you to take the phone, put it outside your door, and come back in a half an hour and it'll play itself. Okay, all right, I got those instructions.

[00:28:52]

Okay, honey, I'm going to go listen to the vodka. Okay, mom, talk to you in a couple of hours. Bye. Bye. I keep my mom occupied for days.

[00:29:00]

Just keep telling her different ways to do it.

[00:29:03]

I know. I told her, I was telling her about the Veeer interview that we did. She was like, He sounds like such a nice young man. That sounds so wonderful. Why did he get his appendix taken out again? I go, He bullshited. He didn't actually have to get his appendix taken out. She was like, Oh, I didn't know they took your appendix out when it didn't need to come out. I'm like, Mom, they don't take your appendix out. That's the funny part of the joke. Oh, it's a joke. Well, it wasn't a joke to him then, but it's a joke to him now. No, I don't understand. Don't worry about it, mom. Just put it out of your brain. You don't need to know, mom. No one's all that concerned. My mom is so clueless when it comes to technology. I know. She's going to spend weeks trying to figure out how to get that podcast up and dialed up. I'm going to tell her, talk in your TV remote and tell her, tell it, Martin Brundel, play the commercial break.

[00:29:52]

Martin Brundel.

[00:29:54]

The Scrundel Bundel. Scundel Brundel. That's such a funny name, Martin Brundel. Iit is. Isn't it?

[00:30:00]

And for all those who are asking, because some people were, we had chili. We did chili for my Thanksgiving.

[00:30:08]

Oh, we did a little chili for my Thanksgiving.

[00:30:09]

Yeah, we made that whole commentary about how...

[00:30:13]

Do you have a chili cook-off?

[00:30:15]

No, Astrid just made chili for the first time ever, and it was fucking delicious. I got to be honest. She knocked it out of the park. She really did. I mean, that was a wholly American dish. And some people may think easy to cook, but no, not for me. Nay, says, Brian, not for me. But chili or anything else for that matter, not easy to cook. But Astrid knocked it out of.

[00:30:35]

The park. She really did. All right. I like your chili Thanksgiving.

[00:30:38]

Yeah. And then we have had all the accutremons. Right. A little chatter cheese. Somebody brought crumbled... Chedder cheese, sour cream, chips, olives if you want to, jalapeinos if you dare. Then some of the kids, some of the guys, my brothers, brought over chips and dip type stuff for the beginning. It was a lovely, lovely evening. It was a lovely evening here at the Green Household, except for Blue. Except for Blue, right. I eventually had to give her the liquid Xanax just to calm her down.

[00:31:01]

We have this stuff- She was ever stimulated.

[00:31:03]

Yeah, we have this stuff called Cylia. Cylia, it's like you put it under the gums, and then it gets absorbed into the gums. It's for when there are periods of high anxiety. So really, a hundred % of the time Itry to get up all the time. I talked to my doctor about this event, and he said, Listen, anytime she's getting too anxious, you feel free to go ahead and give her one. But don't give her too much. I say, Okay, so it's one of those, I don't know if you've ever seen this, it's a syringe, and then it's got a twisting mechanism on the top of it. You've probably never seen this because you don't have an animal at your house, but it's got a twisting mechanism at the top. And what you do is the syringe is preloaded with, I don't know, let's call it 12 milliliters of this. Okay, liquid? Liquid. It's a gel. So you take and then the top of the syringe, the plunger has got lines, little dots. So it's got 12 dots on it. And you take the circular locking mechanism and you pull it up and you twist it, and it locks on the dots.

[00:32:03]

So you say, if I want to give the dog two dots, you pull it up two dots, you lock it, and then you push it, and it won't let you push too much in its mouth. Essentially, it's like a safety mechanism, a dosing mechanism. I give her two dots and she's remarkably much more calm. She's in a happy place. She's under the Christmas tree rolling around trying to get at the thing. She's like a cat. She turns into a cat, like a dope, dope cat. But there was one time, did I tell you this? I went to this one time when Astrid, there was a lightning storm or something outside. And that's a great time to give the dog. When you hear thunder- They get scared, yeah. Blue, I don't know if she gets scared, but she barks.

[00:32:40]

That's nothing new. It's nothing new. Anytime she hears noise, she has to make noise back. She's like me on the podcast. Anytime I hear noise, I have to make noise back. Astrid says, Should I give her some Celio? Yes, give her some Celio. The answer.

[00:32:56]

Is always yes.

[00:32:57]

The answer is always yes. Five minutes later, I can hear the running down the hallway, Honey, yes? I gave the dog... It was a disaster. She's like, I accidentally gave the dog 12 milliliters of the gel. The locking mechanism didn't work. I pushed it all in her mouth. I'm like, Holy shit. Oh, no. Oh, fuck. I thought to myself, What do I do here? Do I let it roll?

[00:33:28]

Exactly. Or do I call Poison Control, take her to the vet? Well, as much as I bitch him out, Blue, she is my puppy and I have a responsibility. We have a responsibility to her. We do love her. She's the family pet. I run, I Poison Control, and then I call some special vet, Poison Control. They give me a phone number and I call and I'm like, What do I do here? They don't even know what the medication is at first. They're a little clueless, but this is given to a lot of dogs. After some time of research, the gentleman comes back on the phone and he says, Well, I think it's okay. I think you're going to be okay, but I want you to watch the dog really closely. If it looks like it's passed out, if she can't open her eyes, if you can't get her to wake up, you got to take her immediately to the vet. But as of right now, I think you're going to be okay. Slut it right out. The chances of an overdose, you'd have to give her a lot more than that. Chrissy never has more peace been in my house for an extended period of time than the time Astrid gave 12 dots of Celia to the dog.

[00:34:26]

I sometimes think to myself.

[00:34:29]

Well, should I just do.

[00:34:30]

It again? Could I just accidentally not lock the locking mechanism like Astrid did? Could I accidentally give her more than I'm supposed to? Would that be morally or legally allowed? I've decided no, but it's a gray area. It's a gray area, Chrissy. You think about it. I think about it all the time in.

[00:34:49]

My dreams. Well, then I gave you some of that pet CPD stuff.

[00:34:53]

Oh, Lord, that made her crazy. It's like me. It's like I love the thought of getting doped up on some gummies and laying down at night. But really what happens is I just get paranoid and keep myself up thinking about all the bad things that are about to happen. We gave her CPD. We've given her- I was.

[00:35:10]

Hoping that would work.

[00:35:10]

I was hoping that would work. I didn't. It didn't. You know what? I'll tell you the truth. It did help a little bit, but I noticed that she was a little crazier than normal. She was batting her ears and running into the wall a little bit. She was definitely doped up, but I don't think it calmed her down necessarily. Maybe a few minutes it did, but then she just got a certain crazy that I didn't care for. I've decided to back off the CPD. The CPD isn't even the kind that gets you crazy, is it? No. It's not even supposed to get you high. What are all these gummies that everyone... I go to the local head shop here to get something appropriate. Your bongs. Yeah, I got to get my bongs and my bullet. I got to get my bullet for the Disney Junior on ice that I'm going to go on. I got to do a little blow. I'm just following up on the TikTok challenge from the guy at the L.

[00:36:02]

A. Game. Right. Right.

[00:36:04]

And now they're selling nitrous oxide, the food product, they're selling the tanks. Oh, wow. An entire half a tank, they're selling for 150 bucks. 10 years ago, 20 years ago, this would have been the best day of my life to find out. We used to buy the Whippets in a can, or you have to go get whipped cream. Not anymore, kids. You can just walk in and ask for nitrous oxide, they give it to you.

[00:36:26]

Just any vape store.

[00:36:27]

I go to this head shop, and there's two guys that are looking over this. It's a huge head shop. And they're looking over the glass counter, the glass case that has all the gummies in it. So they leave, I check out, there's a girl standing behind the counter, and I say, What's the gummies all about? She goes, Oh, well, let me tell you. Are you a fan of gummies? I go, Yeah, yeah, yeah. Me and Kristy, we did bitty dab all the time. Gigity gummies, did bitty dab, fruity nipples, whatever it is, the green ghanja. I don't know. We're all about it. I have no idea what I'm.

[00:36:59]

Talking about. You're just trying to act like you do.

[00:37:02]

Yeah, this girl is like 21, and I'm trying to like, you know. No, in The Headshop, you definitely don't watch college football. You listen to the third Grateful Dead show from 1977 at the Beacon Theater. That's what you do. So I'm asking her and she goes, Oh, yeah, well, listen, if you like gummies, normally I don't like gummies. They don't hit me the right way. I like stuff that's a little bit harder, if you know what I mean. They have to use all this code language and everything in there. When you're asking about the nitrous oxide, it's a food additive. It's a food product. I'm using it to make the most whipped cream any human being has ever made at one time. So I ask about the gummy and she says, Oh, well, these, I don't know what they call them, froggy froggers. These froggy froggers, you should try them. I had some last night. I'm telling you what? I was in outer fucking space. Really? And I go, Is it even legal to sell these in Georgia? And she goes, Well, they're THC-9. And I go, Oh, okay, like nine times the THC than the normal?

[00:37:59]

And she's like, No, it's like THC-9. There's THC-123, AB- Yeah.

[00:38:04]

There's different strains. I think Delta-8 is another one.

[00:38:07]

Delta-8 and THC-9? So I do a little homework when I get home about this, because I'm thinking to myself, I thought THC is illegal in Georgia. But what they do is they chemically engineer it, and then they change a compound. Or they take CPD extract, and then they boil it down to its most essential. Cbd has three % THC in it or something legally by law. Well, then they boil it down, compound it all together, and throw it into a gummy. But that THC is not the THC you're supposed to get high on. Right. So people go fucking nuts. So I start going down this rabbit hole, watching all these YouTube videos of these people who have taken Delta-8, Delta-9, THC-7, whatever the fuck it is, I don't want to get it wrong, people are off their noodles. Really? And they look like wet noodles. They're literally like. They look like one of those things at the car dealership.

[00:38:58]

The.

[00:38:59]

Floatie thing, the air thing? They're going crazy. They're talking gibberish. They're not making any sense. I'm thinking to myself, That's not something... That doesn't sound like a fun thing to me. And filming themselves. And filming themselves. Well, no, it's their friend filming. I'm putting on YouTube forever.

[00:39:12]

What.

[00:39:13]

A time to be alive. What a fucking time to be alive. Poor kids. I know. No fun. They have no fun whatsoever because everyone records them. Then that one thing they did in seventh grade that was embarrassing is on YouTube forever, or that one time they got broken up with is video recording on TikTok forever. It's a tough life. I feel bad for the teenagers growing up today because it must be so difficult to navigate. Anyway, their friends are all recording them doing these Delta 8, Delta 9, whatever. Crazy, that doesn't look like much fun whatsoever. No. It really doesn't. They go crazy. They're in a K-hole or something. Have you ever done the Delta-8s? No. You've never done the Delta-8s? You know anybody that does? No. No, because you just take the extra step to get some mail. Exactly. Okay, let me go to L. A. And when I go to L.

[00:39:56]

A. In friends in Colorado.

[00:39:57]

Yeah, but I guess when you're 17 or 16 and you don't have access to that. -take what you can get. You take what you can get. Because I'll tell you what, there were two grown-ass adult men buying those gummies. When I walked in, that's what initially piqued my interest, is I heard them talking to the lady about the gummies. I was like, Oh, wow, they sell gummies. Clearly, they don't. In Tennessee, when I was going to Pigeon Forge, they have completely misleading signs all over the place. When you get up into the mountains, THC factory, only the best, highest quality, gets you high, whatever. Da da da da da da da. I didn't say that for real, but... And then I drive by the shop and it has advertisements about your weed store, your pot life, your everything. So we get to the cabin and I'm like, Wow, we can buy weed in Tennessee? I didn't know that. I google it, No, you can't buy weed in Tennessee. It's still very illegal in Tennessee. What they're doing is they're selling these knock off products as actual... It's misleading at best. Is it THC? I guess technically it's THC.

[00:40:59]

Is it weed? It comes from hemp, but it's not really actual weed. But that didn't stop the entire parking lot from being full up there and Pigeon Forge, they were getting people coming and going. Unbelievable. Why are we still doing this stupid fucking podcast? Why don't we have a head shop?

[00:41:15]

We need to go into that business.

[00:41:17]

You guys want your Delta 8, Delta 9 gummies? You cannot buy them from us. I'm not even sure what the legality of me saying this is right now, but you cannot buy them from us. But keep a look out for the TCBTHC. I like it. The TCBTHC store opening up sooner rather than later in a neighborhood close to yours. All right, let's take a short break, and then I got some good stuff for you that's going to lead into the next episode, Chrissy. We got a double-banger today. Nice. A double-header. You know how many times I've had double-head? I came close that one time at the Olympics, but they sent me out for a beer. There you are.

[00:41:49]

They sent you away.

[00:41:50]

They did. I'm going to send you away to listen to some of our commercials, and we'll be back. Okay, Brian, let me give the people what they want, our social media handles. Follow us on Instagram, at the commercial break, and on TikTok @TCB Podcast. If, like all my hinge dates, you are thirsty for more, give us a call and leave us a message at (626) ask-tcb3, or send us a text, No sexting, please, at 855 tcb 8383. And, of course, go to tcbpodcast. Com to see everything there is to see. Now, let's hear from our sponsors, and then the show must go on. It's been a while. It's been a hot minute.

[00:42:40]

Since?

[00:42:42]

Well, let me get to it. I'm trying to give a pregnant pause there. Please don't be pregnant. No more children. No. It's been a while since we checked in on our boy, John Anthony, lifestyle. John Anthony, lifestyle has been an amazing ride for us. He's not Frankie B level. He's certainly not Theresa Caputo level. He hasn't gone to Mountain monsters yet. But we've done two or three videos with John Anthony, who is a purported pickup artist, aPUA, out there on the internet. It's very popular, gets hundreds of thousands of views on every video. He's got a whole system that you can buy and consulting that you can call. We actually tried to set an appointment with the guy. It didn't work.

[00:43:26]

Is he the one.

[00:43:27]

That's in Brazil? Yes, he's the one that's in Brazil. He's in Brazil. If you've been paying attention to the commercial break longer than a couple of months, you probably have heard one of these videos. I don't see his girlfriend with him anymore, though.

[00:43:37]

Oh, well, she got wise.

[00:43:38]

He's in Brazil with some girl that he calls Brazil. He just calls her Brazil. That's not her fucking name. And reportedly, supposedly, allegedly, she is a paid spokesperson for John Anthony Lifestyle. She's a sex worker that's been paid. But we don't know that for sure. He never says that on the video. But there's a lot of commentary online that points in that direction.

[00:44:01]

Well, it would make sense. I mean, she's beautiful.

[00:44:04]

She's beautiful, and she seems smart when she talks, so I don't think she's buying his bullshit either. But if you get paid $1,000 per video, I would probably do it, too. She's an actress. Yeah, just like we told, Vee or we have our morals, we have our scrupels. Unless someone wants to pay us a lot of money to talk about it, then we'll do it.

[00:44:21]

Exactly.

[00:44:22]

Money talks. Yeah, money talks. And here we're desperate for money, so feel free to send your donations. Paypal, tcb. Com. John Anthony, I've been keeping an eye on his videos every once in a while, waiting for a good one to come up. There's been a lot of... He does breakdowns of other P UAs. Oh, I saw that. He does a lot of that. We did one, one time. He does a lot of breakdowns of other P UAs. I got to be honest, the only time that I agree with John Anthony about anything that he says is when he's making fun of other P UAs. There he's perfectly on point, but he's missing the irony of the video. Exactly. Which is that's the same shit he's spewing. It's a different mouth, different eyes, same bullshit. I saw a video the other day, it caught my attention. I thought we must go over this one. This may outlast one episode, so we may have to take this into Friday. But I'm telling you right now, the title of the video should tell you all you need to know: How to pick up strippers. How to pick up strippers.

[00:45:26]

This is something I might know a little bit about.

[00:45:28]

I think.

[00:45:29]

You do. How to pick up stripper. We're at a gas station at three o'clock in the morning when they're drunk and they come in, and then live with them while they have an affair with their actual boyfriend in the same room. That's how you do it. The landscaper. Yes, the landscaper. The landscaper was mowing her lawn indeed. So without further ado, I was trolling on the internet. As you do. As I do like to do. Let's check in on John here. Oh, look, he's got a new- Platinum dating.

[00:45:54]

-platinum dating system. Com. Oh, my God. The sign, the neon sign.

[00:45:59]

The neon sign... A sign of a stripper up against a pole with her nude boobs everywhere. What's custom? Sam, tell me you're a chauvinist without saying a word. Platinum datingsystem. Com, which is the worst URL I've ever heard of. I don't even think half your audience knows how to spell platinum or dating. Then also the lovely neon stripper pole. Nothing says, What a nice guy I came home with tonight. Then the neon sign.

[00:46:29]

Of a hate. Let me turn on the lights in here.

[00:46:33]

Okay, there we are.

[00:46:35]

Just like a big, neon badge.

[00:46:38]

I know. It's next to a nice plant.

[00:46:40]

Oh, my God, Chrissy. It looks like between two firms. It'slike, it's got to be a joke, right? All right, let's take a listen. I don't know if we want to go down this rabbit hole, but we're on our way. Here we go. John Anthony talking about how to pick up strippers.

[00:46:55]

What's up, guys? John Anthony here from John Anthony Lifestyle. In today's video, we're going to be talking about stripper game. How do you routinely hit on and successfully pick up strippers who are working at a.

[00:47:07]

Strip club? Jesus. Those strippers look like they were... It was like a outtake from silence of the land. That was so weird. John put up some stock video. I imagine stock video because it was nicely shot, of some strippers, clothes, but up against a pole. They looked weird, like scary weird. I don't know what happened there. Starting off right.

[00:47:34]

Without paying anything, without having to kiss their ass or do anything like a customer would.

[00:47:39]

Oh, because that's exactly why those girls are there, to not be paid and not hear compliments about themselves. It's the two things strippers really hate, is being paid and hearing nice things about themselves. Putting the science back in seduction, which makes no sense whatsoever. That's tagline, putting the science back in seduction. I didn't know seduction had.

[00:48:06]

Science in it. He's got the formula.

[00:48:09]

Well, he does. Well, to be fair to John, there are some similar letters in both words. I think there's an S and E and N. Yeah, I guess you could spell-ish science incorrectly with seduction.

[00:48:23]

So in this video, I'm going to go through my 14-point checklist. 14?

[00:48:29]

You can think of the 14 points. I've been to a couple of strip clubs in my life, Kirsty, and I don't think I could remember two points. No, I don't. Anytime I've been to a strip club, there is a level of inebriation. It's not like someone got me to go there perfectly sober.

[00:48:45]

This, the more the things that you do on the checklist, the higher your chances are to get any particular stripper. If you just do a couple of things, it's not-.

[00:48:54]

They have different camera angles. Did you see the camera angle there? No, I didn't see that. You didn't? Okay, let me see if I can scroll. Look, there's a naked woman. So they changed the camera angle, and then he's got a statue of a naked torso.

[00:49:07]

Headless.

[00:49:08]

Naked torso. It's skin-colored, by the way. It's not even like a granite statue or something nice. It's a headless, nude, female torso. Nothing says like, I'm about to get murdered.

[00:49:19]

Yeah, that is crazy.

[00:49:21]

Oh, my gosh, this guy.

[00:49:23]

Do a couple of things. It's not going to be nearly as effective if you do most of the things. This is tried and true, tested and proven. I've slept with lots and lots of strippers over the course.

[00:49:33]

Of my life. What a douche. What a douche, Chrissy. What a douche.

[00:49:37]

It's tested, tried and tested.

[00:49:40]

Oh, my God. I don't even know how toI don't even know how to frame this. I'm just going to come out and say it. What a fucking asshole. Honestly. I've slept with a lot of strippers, and my 14-point checklist is guaranteed, tried and true, tested to get your dick wet with the girls on stage. You have to pay a dollar, say anything to them. Just check off the list and you'll be going home with the hottest tits in all the club. Our name is John Anthony Lifestyle. It's actually just John Anthony, but I put the lifestyle there. Pretty cool, huh? Platinum dating Systems for you to get strippers inbed 14-point-checklist. Com. And I.

[00:50:21]

Made multiple into girlfriends, which usually ended in flames, but it's a wild ride. There's a lot of real big highs and real low lows and everything in between. I'm going to go over that-.

[00:50:32]

Let's just paint all strippers as crazy human beings. Why not?

[00:50:35]

Let's go for it. Yeah, and why? I mean, after saying that, then why would you even want to be then with one?

[00:50:41]

He's just trying to get his Geiger counter to go up one more. He must be at 15,000 by now. I don't know. Looks like a syphilis of the face or something. This guy is so weird.

[00:50:51]

A checklist. If you're new to the channel, please subscribe to Never Miss a Video every single day. And if you're finding value, please hit that like button to support the video. So number one, the overarching rule, okay, the number one overarching rule is you need to stay out of the customer frame. Because you can think of it like this. When you're in a strip club, say that the girl looks at all the different guys and she sees them all as like this red color, which represents loser, beta, customer. He's just looking to pay to get attention or pay to hear some fake call. What else.

[00:51:23]

Is the purpose of... Stay out. Make yourself not a customer at the store. Just walk around.

[00:51:36]

You're a beta, you're a loser. Your dick is small. You don't even have hair under your armpits. You're still a man child. You live with your mommy. You play video games all day long, or there's you, or you. Stay out of that frame. What you want to do is every time they look your way, jump to the left. Jump to the right. Stay out of the frame. What is he fucking talking about?

[00:51:59]

I don't know. I think he's going to explain. I can't wait to hear this.

[00:52:03]

I'm sorry, but those girls are working. They're not going to take the time to find out what personality you have. They don't give a shit.

[00:52:09]

That's from the girl, and she doesn't respect those guys, and she sees them as just customers. Now you're going to present yourself in stark contrast to the other customers, and you're going to be breaking that customer frame so that you stand out as this blue color, and that's going to be refreshing.

[00:52:26]

And she's going to be like, What if I paint myself like a Blue Man group guy? Yeah.

[00:52:30]

You said those would work.

[00:52:32]

Yes, and I bring in those tubes, and I'm like, I have one of those drums. What if I bring a Kaliapian? One of those.

[00:52:43]

Machines that- They would definitely see you differently.

[00:52:46]

Of course they would. I'll just paint my dick blue and just have it hanging out of my Lululemon trousers.

[00:52:52]

Wow, who's this guy? This guy seems like the man. This guy seems high value, et cetera, et cetera. I want to know more about this guy. The first item, as I.

[00:53:01]

Said- I can guarantee you, any stripper that's saying that in their own heads thinks you have a big pocketbook because they're there to make money. They're not there to find a boyfriend. I would bet if you pulled, if you went to the Cheetah right now and pulled the 100 dancers that they may have working at any given time, 98 of them are going to say, There's no chance under any circumstances in any world that I am going home and going to be in a relationship with any of my customers. It's just bad business. Yeah.

[00:53:32]

It is to break the customer frame. So you have to constantly keep that in mind, and that's going to apply to a lot of the rest of these points.

[00:53:39]

Number two- He still hasn't.

[00:53:40]

Said anything. Yeah, you still haven't said anything. How do you do that? You've got to get close to them. How do you get close to them? You've got to pay them because that's what they do for a living.

[00:53:49]

You want to cement yourself as industry, this whole notion of us versus them.

[00:53:55]

As industry? Okay, so so far, I'm painting myself like a Blue Man. I'm walking in, I'm super gluing my feet to the floor. What are you doing? Cement yourself as industry? I'm the Blue Man, Captain the Titan of Industry. Attention, everyone, in the strip club. I am Blue, the Titan of Industry. I have cemented myself in the middle of this floor with my Kaliope and my Blue Man group paint, and I would not leave until you see me outside of the frame. It all makes perfect sense now, John.

[00:54:37]

You don't want to be the customer who's just there to pay money to get her attention and to get dances and so on and so forth. Instead, you want to act like you are on the inside.

[00:54:48]

I love how...

[00:54:51]

On the inside. What?

[00:54:57]

It's me, John Anthony, Titan of Industry and Blue Man. Can I come in? It's the dressing room. No. I'm in the inside. I'm one of you. On the inside. You wish you were on the inside, John.

[00:55:13]

Inside of the industry. I'll tell a story about how I DJ electronic music. You don't want to be bragging. I'll just casually mention how I DJ electronic music.

[00:55:21]

What other music would you DJ? What are you talking about? As opposed to the kind that do records? Hey, the.

[00:55:31]

Way I DJ. By the.

[00:55:33]

Way, I'm a DJ. Oh, really?

[00:55:37]

Oh, so you're in the industry?

[00:55:38]

You're in the industry. Not only do I DJ, but I DJ electronic music. Oh, thank God. The last guy who said he was in the industry came in with blue paint, stuck himself to the floor, and told me he had records he was still spinning. Well, clearly he's not in the industry if he's not DJing electronic music. What a dumbdumb.

[00:56:01]

Oh, my God. This aids in the whole us versus them and helps further take you out of the customer frame.

[00:56:07]

Number three, you can-So you just go in and lie about being a DJ? And all of a sudden you're in the industry? By the way, what does a lot of electronic music have to do with dancing? Nude on a stage. I don't get it. Is it because there's music playing in the place while they're dancing? Because I go into a Chile's and there's music playing.

[00:56:28]

I know. I mean, are you trying to say that you... Yeah, you lie and say you're a DJ at other strip clubs? That's right.

[00:56:36]

I guess. I don't know. Okay. Welcome to Chillies. How many in your party? I'm in the industry. I DJ electronic music. I don't know if you also noticed there was electronic music playing inside the Chillies. So we'll take the nicest table you have. Chef's table, please. Chef's. Right next to where they fry the awesome blossom. Oak, only the finest awesome blossom sauce for us, please. We're in the industry. I've cemented myself as the captain of Chile's industry.

[00:57:11]

Can you tell a canned story about.

[00:57:14]

How- Oh, he said- Tell a can? He said, Tell a canned story, and he wrote it, You can tell a can story. Who's checking the spelling on his videos? He gets something wrong every fucking time. He dies. Every time.

[00:57:30]

Story about how strippers are your favorite type of girl to date because they're chill and down to earth.

[00:57:36]

And you just said that they're crazy.

[00:57:40]

They're chill and down to earth.

[00:57:44]

I refuse to paint with broad strokes like he does, but... So now you're going to lie.

[00:57:51]

That's what you're going to do. You can also mention how you have dated strippers in the past, which is going to cement pre-selection. Other attractive strippers have approved of you so that Short Circus' value approval processes.

[00:58:04]

You have to whip out a picture or something? By the.

[00:58:08]

Way, I've dated.

[00:58:09]

Other strippers. By the way, I've dated other strippers. Hot strippers. Just only hot strippers. Oh, he's pre-selected. Girls, the guy with blue paint on outside that's glued himself to the floor. That's a DJ of electronic music. Not to be confused with unelectronic music, he has dated other hot strippers. He's pre-selected.

[00:58:33]

Ding, ding, ding.

[00:58:35]

He's pre-selected.

[00:58:38]

And it also social proofs you. So I basically said that as a DJ, I meet a lot of girls.

[00:58:43]

And don't let girls- Social-proofs you. Social proofs you. What's that? What's that? Is it like a bubble around you? Keeps Facebook bothering you? I'm not sure what's going on.

[00:58:51]

It's getting overprotective of my profession. And I say, I'm sure you can relate. They always light up because their number one pet peeve is guys getting jealous or out of shape about what they do, their job, and/or judging them. You can sit down and, Oh, yeah.

[00:59:08]

Now, I'm totally cool with taking your clothes off for other guys. No problem. No problem.

[00:59:16]

When I dated the dancer, I honestly got to say, it was the least of my concern. I never really got all that fussed about it because I met her.

[00:59:26]

While- While she was.

[00:59:28]

Doing her job. The first dancer that I dated, I met her at a VP. I did not meet her. But she told me immediately what she did for a living. It was within the first 15 seconds of conversation. I don't know, then how can I be bothered by that? I'm choosing- Brian, that's why she dated you. That's right. Well, you should have seen how she lit up when I was like, By the way, I don't care who you want to have sex with. I'm literally a beta. I don't give a shit. She lit up. And then she also decided to go sleep with other men. She put that to the test.

[01:00:03]

I've dated some strippers before, and I think they're actually really cool. They normally get a bad rep, but they're really down to earth chicks that are super carefree and fun. I really like them. They're my favorite type of girl to date, blah, blah, blah. For the rest of these, okay? This is three of the tips out of the 14.

[01:00:44]

Yeah, he misspelled attract. It says attacked.

[01:00:49]

Oh, my God! What are you doing, Jodd? I mean, God forbid you have some actual problem, dyslexia or something like that. I don't want to make fun of you because I do know people that have that. But every single- And spell check. Yeah, spell check. Every single one of his videos has some huge spelling error every time he puts something on the screen. It's insane.
