People keep asking me, How are you doing? How is life? How are you feeling? I'm fat and shattered, Mandy. I'm fat and fucking shattered. We're all feeling fat and shattered. That's how I'm feeling. On this episode of The.

[00:00:15]

Commercial break.

[00:00:17]

That's boring. That's the same old, same old. You know what you want to do? You got to razor a dick into your head. That's what the girls are looking for. The actual size. You have to say maybe smaller than a fierce and a mirror. You know what I'm saying, guys? By the way, if you don't have the hair that can be long, you are absolutely most fuckedest. I'm just letting you know. The next episode of The commercial break starts now. Oh, yeah, cats and kittens. Welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Greene. This is the director of Other kin, honors and oddities, Tina. Best to you, Tina. Best to you, Brian. And best to you out there in the podcast universe. Thanks for joining us. We're here. We're here. That's all I got to say is that we're here. Chrissy is not here, as you may have noticed since I said Tina, not Chrissy. And for those of you who haven't heard, Chrissy is out with a family health emergency, I think that's what I should say. It's all I can say right now. But it's serious, and then Chrissy needs to take some time away from the microphone.

[00:01:23]

And we support her 1,000 %. We look forward to her coming back, and she will be back. And we love her very much. We love her family. We're sending all the love in the world over to the Holdley family as they deal with some very serious health issues. That's it. That makes me sad when I think about it, actually. Yes. Yeah, makes me sad when I think about it, and I hope there's hope. That's all I got to say. When you lose hope, there's no more hope to hope about. That's it. That's what I have to say. As my dad used to say, You can date a banana doesn't mean you know how to make banana bread. My dad didn't say that. I just made that up in my head.

[00:02:04]

I was pondering it.

[00:02:05]

My dad wouldn't say something like that. That's not my dad's style. My dad's very dry. Yes. Yes. You've known my dad for just about as long as I have. Actually, you might know my dad better than I do. I'm not sure.

[00:02:18]

I absolutely love.

[00:02:19]

Your dad. My dad would take in all the randoms, all the strangers. Remember what was that? There was another young lady who used to run. Mousie? Oh, yeah. Remember Mousie? I do. Yeah. Myd would take in, I remember Mousie one time came. She became a model, right?

[00:02:35]

She tried. Okay.

[00:02:36]

So I remember she had a lookbook one time, and she brought the lookbook over Thanksgiving. So parents are divorced.

[00:02:43]

No, that was mine.

[00:02:44]

No, that wasn't your lookbook.

[00:02:46]

I'm pretty sure it was.

[00:02:47]

The lookbook, were you a topless?

[00:02:49]

I wasn't topless.

[00:02:51]

Okay, I think this is why it's somebody else's.

[00:02:53]

You could definitely see my midsection, and it appeared as if.

[00:02:57]

You were topless? Mm-hmm. Okay, there was an actual- It.

[00:03:00]

Was artsy. Is that.

[00:03:01]

What the photographer said?

[00:03:04]

Yeah.

[00:03:04]

That's how they.

[00:03:04]

Get you, isn't it? Well, I may or may not have been topless. It was just for the lookbook, the way it was artistically crafted, appeared that maybe there was a fuzzy sweater.

[00:03:15]

Oh, okay. But were you or were you not topless when the picture was taken? I was. Of course, because that's how they get you, right?

[00:03:22]

Well, I guess. Yeah. We're going to leave that there.

[00:03:27]

I remember, I'll tell the story about mousey in a second, but I remember when you were doing modeling, Kevin decided he wanted to do modeling, my twin brother. Yes. And so we got hooked up with some character who was having an open casting call. We went to this open casting, and the guy also said, Oh, yeah, you should come, too. Kevin and I went. It was an open casting call at a random office in a random office building somewhere not in Atlanta, Georgia, somewhere out in the suburbs. We go there and there's like 20 guys, 20 girls crowded in this waiting room. We get in there and the guy takes a few photographs, talks a minute, and then he says, I think you're perfect material for the next Calvin Klein ad. All we have to do is get you headshots, a lookbook, some clothing, a hairstyle, camp cards. It's only going to be $6,000. Can you do this? Can you commit to $6,000 today? I was like, No, why am I paying you? I thought we were going to have the next Calvin Klein model. I thought I was going to be rich by Tuesday.

[00:04:27]

He's like, Well, if you can't afford $6,000, I do have the $3,000 package. It's not going to be as good. It's likely you're not going to do Calvin Klein. It'll probably be Walmart ads, but you can do it. I don't have $3,000. I'm not paying you $3,000.

[00:04:40]

No way.

[00:04:41]

But there were plenty of people in the room who did, and that guyup. It's a rocket. It's a rocket. It's a fucking rocket. Having a friend who spent a lot of time in the actual modeling business, in an actual modeling agency, you don't pay. You don't pay. They pay you. That's how that works. That's great. That's how that works. Just remember, when you get approached at the local mall... And listen, there are plenty of stories. I think Kate Moss got approached at a local mall or something.

[00:05:03]

She got... It was an.

[00:05:04]

Airport, but yeah. An airport, yeah. And then Heidi Clume got approached, her mom got approached out in a thing by a talent scout. It happens.

[00:05:12]

It happens. It happened to my friends' kids, yeah.

[00:05:14]

But if you don't look like Heidi Clume or Kate Moss- Chances are. -chances are that what they're doing.

[00:05:20]

Is- Taking.

[00:05:21]

Your money. -running you for a train. That's what they're doing. They want your money. That's right. So this girl comes in Thanksgiving Night. I just will never forget this. And she's got this lookbook, and she's showing everybody what she's up to, and what she's done, and how she's done it. And she's flipping through the book, and there is a picture of her topless, right? And I just never forget how interested my dad became in that lookbook all of a sudden. Oh, these are wonderful. These are wonderful. Flip back to that picture with your boob. That's just beautiful. Look at that. I always thought to myself, Dad, that's creepy. Yes, and can you flip back to the top of this picture, please?

[00:05:58]

Can we take this to the other room where my dad isn't sitting.

[00:06:01]

Can I take a picture of this to memorialize the picture that you took of this picture? Is that possible? Oh, Melcy. Okay. There's something running around the internet I got to talk to you about it. You and I may or may not have had our experiences with hallucinogens. May or may not. May or may not have. You and I may or may not have taken mushrooms as a part of our hallucinogen- Journey. -journey, that's right. We understand when everyone is talking about the therapeutic potentials, the breakthrough potentials of hallucinogens or disassociatives like ketamine, mushrooms, ecstasy, I don't hear LSD as much.

[00:06:44]

I don't either, but I know what you're talking about.

[00:06:46]

Yeah, but you know what you're talking about, right? Is that all these therapists and these groups and these nonprofits now, they're all advocating for everyone under the sun needs to take hallucinogens because it's going to cure all the world's woes. I don't disagree. However, I don't necessarily agree either, because there is one of two ways that a hallucinogenic experience can go. Oh, yeah. It can go terribly awesome, or it can go terribly awry. Terribly awry. You could leave more damaged than you came in the door.

[00:07:18]

Surely.

[00:07:18]

Do you remember a couple of months ago when the pilot tried to cut off, the guy was sitting in the jumper seat, tried to cut off the engines on a United flight? Do you remember this? Yeah. I just read an article about hallucinogenic therapy and how everyone is just the hype machine is in full force. But there was the therapist or the psychiatrist who was writing this article used this example. The gentleman who sat in a jump seat, which means the extra seat inside of a cockpit on a United Flight, catching a ride from point A to point B, tried to turn the engines off mid flight. The reason, he had done hallucinogenic therapy two days earlier, and he thought he was in a dream, like an actual dream, which is fucking.

[00:08:03]

Scary.

[00:08:03]

As shit. Terrifying. What they don't tell you about hallucinogenic therapy is that the hallucinogen may far outlast that experience that you have in that room, especially if you've never done it before. You don't know what to expect.

[00:08:19]

Far outlast, we still experience our hallucinogenic journey from 30 years ago.

[00:08:24]

That's right. I'm still looking at it from the point of view of a-.

[00:08:27]

Catch some train.

[00:08:28]

Yeah, of a 17-year-old sitting in my parents' house tripping balls. It's true. It changes your perspective.

[00:08:36]

It changes the chemistry in your brain.

[00:08:37]

It changes everything.

[00:08:38]

Yeah.

[00:08:40]

People are on the hype machine about how wonderful this is, and it is. It is proving to be a miracle cure for PTSD, for anxiety, for depression, for even in some cases like bipolar, manic-depressive.

[00:08:55]

Major.

[00:08:56]

Depressive disorders, yeah. Major, major thing. But what is not being talked about as much, not taken into consideration as much in these conversations, is how it could go badly. You could still be feeling the effects of that. You could be in a dreamlike state for months or years to come.

[00:09:12]

It can just snap into you. That's it. It's not consistently you're not having your experience, but it can come in and out.

[00:09:19]

Yeah, they call them flashbacks. The flashback is essentially your mind takes itself back to that place where you were hallucinating or you were in that hallucinative state.

[00:09:30]

-a trance state, yes. Yes.

[00:09:31]

All of a sudden the world looks weird and wonky. Now, if you have as much experience as I do, and maybe or maybe not Tina does, then it's just another Friday afternoon. Sure, you just roll with it.

[00:09:41]

Yeah, you just roll with it. You don't just turn planes off. Yeah, you're right.

[00:09:45]

You go in your studio and you watch Pink Floyd: The Wall live from Berlin. That's what you do. If you're like us, then you just enjoy it. You're like, Oh, okay, I don't do LSD anymore, but man, it's good to be back. It's like a little treat.

[00:10:00]

It's good to be back for.

[00:10:01]

Five to 10 minutes.

[00:10:03]

The.

[00:10:03]

Other thing that is being considered is that the properties that make these drugs so wonderful at changing the chemistry of your brain, having a breakthrough, a positive breakthrough with your mental state, the hallucinogen, the hallucinogenic part of it, or the disassociating part of it, doesn't necessarily have to be involved. There is a subset of scientists and therapists, and psychiatrists who have identified that you don't necessarily need to trip to experience the positive effects of these chemicals like DMT or seagasylin, or whatever it is. They are trying to figure out what that molecule is, they think they've identified it, and they're trying to make a medicine out of it so that you could take the medicine, experience the instant breakthrough, but without actually breaking your mind, without actually breaking your reality.

[00:10:59]

Without the fun of the trip.

[00:11:00]

Yeah. Now, for my money, I don't know. I'll take the visuals.

[00:11:03]

Yeah, I'll take the... I'll take the visuals.

[00:11:05]

I'll take the visuals. That's for my money. But I do get it. If you've never experienced anything like this.

[00:11:11]

Oh, it could be, I mean, especially at 30, 40 years old for the first time, whoa.

[00:11:16]

It could be, Erchiev. It's terrifying. I can't imagine doing hallucinogen for the first time. Listen, the last time I did a Lucinogen was ayahuasca. It was years ago. I'm telling you what, I think that was icing on the cake. I don't know that I need to ever go back to that place again. It was a scary and, quite frankly, extraordinarily intense event. And I'm good. I'm good.

[00:11:37]

I just- I had cut it because I had children a lot sooner than.

[00:11:40]

You did. Yeah, that's true.

[00:11:41]

And so now that they're grown, I said, Why not?

[00:11:46]

And tried it.

[00:11:47]

It.

[00:11:47]

Was fantastic. What?

[00:11:49]

Ayahuasca? No, mushrooms.

[00:11:50]

Mushroom? Yeah. And it.

[00:11:51]

Was- My girlfriend came over. We spent 10 hours. We watched the Bowie documentary. Oh, that's cool. It was fantastic. Yeah. I'mcolors.

[00:12:00]

Little trippy, weird.

[00:12:01]

Easy vibes. Just like a mood enhancer. Yeah, it was great.

[00:12:05]

I even learned the other day that one of my good friends is microdosing. They're actually microdosing.

[00:12:11]

I tried it. I didn't mind it. And then one day I freaked out and kicked in my bathroom door, so I decided we'll stop with the microdosing.

[00:12:18]

Were you microdosing mushrooms?

[00:12:20]

My door was just.

[00:12:21]

Locked, by the way. Oh, my God.

[00:12:22]

I thought the door was stuck, so I kicked it in. I was like, Maybe we stopped the microdosing for a little while. I haven't gone back.

[00:12:32]

To it. You had a freak out moment.

[00:12:33]

I did it for three months, but it did a lot for my anxiety. My general mood was better. Overall, I was a little dissatisfied with my employment, and so that helped as well. Okay. You know that depressing drive to work every day?

[00:12:45]

I do know that depressing drive to work every day. I walk it.

[00:12:48]

I like it, but I don't know if that's why I had that panic attack moment, if the microdosing had anything to do with it, but I decided to give it.

[00:12:55]

A break. Yeah. I was surprised to learn that my friend was doing this. I was really surprised, actually. It just didn't seem like.

[00:13:01]

Something they would- But there's no hallucinogenic effect. There's no psychotropic at all. There's no Silly Sibon in it.

[00:13:08]

Yeah. Well, he's actually eating part of a cap. He's actually eating.

[00:13:13]

Part of a cap. Oh, no, I bought manufactured ones. I just had them shipped to me from where it's legal.

[00:13:18]

Okay, so you had them shipped from where it's legal to where it's legal. Got you, 10-4. Correct. Don't come knocking at my door over some fucking mushrooms. Please, dad.

[00:13:25]

I don't.

[00:13:26]

Live here. Yeah, she doesn't live here.

[00:13:28]

They were fake chocolates, so I made.

[00:13:30]

The whole thing up. Well, I just think that this is the grandest thing ever if you can handle your shit.

[00:13:35]

I agree. I think it's fantastic.

[00:13:38]

If you can't handle your shit, the last thing we need is a bunch of people running around high on mushrooms. Exactly.

[00:13:42]

Yeah, for sure.

[00:13:42]

Yeah, turning off airplane engines.

[00:13:44]

We got enough crazy.

[00:13:45]

We got way enough crazy.

[00:13:46]

This is supposed to help fix the crazy.

[00:13:48]

Well, there are these nonprofit organizations that are pushing for the legalization across the country, across the world, quite frankly, and they're also pushing for pharmaceutical, scientific research to back this up. I agree with it. 1,000 %. But it's a big hype machine. And what's being left out of the conversation is that not everybody needs to trip balls.

[00:14:12]

It's true. That's just it. I agree with you 100 %.

[00:14:15]

Listen, as a guy, I don't even know that I was supposed to be the guy who was supposed to be tripping balls. It's a hot mess. Luckily, I stopped at some point in my life, but I think this needs to be considered in this conversation. Yes, could we have world peace if everybody negotiated in good faith on mushrooms? Probably, maybe, might be. But if you're someone who's living in a totally different world and a totally different experience, I don't know that that's the best thing in the world for you is to then take mushrooms so that you can negotiate what.

[00:14:46]

These- If you're already seeking help- Yes.

[00:14:48]

-maybe let's not start with the hallucinogenes.

[00:14:51]

Maybe let's try with something else. I think that if you're going to try hallucinogenes, mushrooms are probably where you want to start. Start there. Yeah, and just one. Just one. One small one. Just taste it. Just taste it. You'll never want... Yeah, taste it. It's the worst taste of the world. These kids are so fucking spoiled today. They got all their shit hydroponically grown with spores that are from mother, mother, mother, mother spores from 50 years ago. They don't know what it's like to trudge through a cow field.

[00:15:18]

And pick.

[00:15:18]

It off the shit. -pick it off the shit yourself and then put it in your mouth. That's right.

[00:15:23]

Dip it in some ranch dressing.

[00:15:25]

Make a tea out of it. That was the worst idea because the tea just ended up being tasted like shit. It was shit tea. You were basically taking cow poop and putting it in your mouth.

[00:15:35]

And turning it into piss, yeah.

[00:15:37]

The one time that I successfully look for mushroom, North Georgia, we're at a friend's cabin, slash, whatever. I don't like to rent a cabin place that his parents belong to this like a timeshare, right? Up in way northeast Georgia, and they have cow fields all around. So in the middle of the night, already high on LSD, already smoked a.

[00:15:57]

Bunch of weed. That's when the best ideas come to light.

[00:15:59]

That's Let's go mushroom picking because all we need is more hallucinogens in our body than right now. More. That's the only thing I can think about when I'm doing drugs is more. Where am I getting more? That's why I'm a bad drug taker. I'm a bad candidate for drug taking. So we go, we park at one of these on the side of one of these fence to turn off our light, and we're all sneaky. No flashlights, no nothing. Half moon outside, cloudy. We go into the field, start trudging around for shit. Then my friend has a tiny little flashlight, like a pen flashlight, and he's looking around. Well, he screams at one point, Over here. Over here. He's 50 feet away, 50 yards away, whatever it is. I don't know, because I'm tripping my face off. I run toward the little pen flashlight, stepping in shit all along the way. And we saw one paddy with some shrooms growing out of them. You have to pick it at a specific time. It's got to be a specific temperature. They have to be eating a specific thing. It's not just that every cow shifts and then there's mushrooms.

[00:16:59]

Yeah, there's some science behind it. And we didn't know that science. We thought we knew that science, but we didn't know that science. So we're picking them, we're putting them in this bag. There's probably like, let's call it 10 mushrooms, picking. Then all of a sudden you hear...

[00:17:13]

Oh, no.

[00:17:16]

I'm like, What is that? I'm like, Oh, shit, that's a bull. We book it. I mean, we are booking it back toward the fence where we had it. All I can hear behind me is...

[00:17:29]

Oh, hell no.

[00:17:30]

I can hear running behind me. I am so scared of this bull. This bull is going to get me in the ass. I'm tripping balls. I'm high as fucking fight. It's four o'clock in the morning. We're full of cow shit. We got exactly three mushrooms to show for it, and I'm going to get killed out here. My dad is going to have to bury me because I get killed by a random bull. I was picking mushrooms.

[00:17:51]

Hunting shit.

[00:17:52]

You know what it was? It was the third friend involved in the group making cow noises and running after us. He thought it was funny, and Iwas like, Oh, my God.

[00:18:00]

I bet it was for him.

[00:18:01]

Yeah, it was funny for him. Not for the other two of us that were running around, literally shitting ourselves. So get home the next day. There's no shower in this little rental place they have, by the way. It's just a toilet. That's it. It's this tiny little shack with a little, I don't know what you call, loft area upstairs with a bed. So we have to go home the next day, smelling like horse shit. Perfect. It was disgusting, Tina. I'm crusty, I'm nasty, I'm still high and tripping a little bit, and I walk in that door and my dad is like, What in the fuck did you get into last night? You smell terrible. I was like, Oh, it was a whole thing. We went up to the mountains and then I stepped in some cow shit.

[00:18:42]

He's like- You want some mushrooms? By the.

[00:18:45]

Way, dad, that's spaghetti and meatballs? I got these. They're going to spice our life up. See my dad giggling while he's tripping on mushrooms. My dad was like, You got to get upstairs and take a fucking shower. That, kids, is the real deal. That's how you get mushrooms. That's the real deal how you get mushrooms. Not grown somewhere, bought off the black market, go to your local drug-based or whatever, drug-based. Com, and get it. That's the easy way to do it. The hard way? Go find them yourself.

[00:19:16]

Yeah, don't be a sucker.

[00:19:17]

Yeah, I think now they put something in the hay or the grass so that it doesn't grow those mushrooms. Rude. Yeah, some genius of titan of technology decided he was going to make-.

[00:19:30]

No more poison mushrooms.

[00:19:31]

-a spray. That's right. They're not poison. They're not poison. They might be poison. They're poison. I always tell my kids, Never, ever, ever, ever pick up a mushroom and eat it. Ever. Unless it's in Daddy's side table. Then you're more than welcome to do that- Then.

[00:19:47]

Just don't tell mommy.

[00:19:48]

Yes, when you're 29 years old. All right, we're going to take a short break, and then we'll be back with Frankie B.

[00:19:56]

You.

[00:19:57]

Don't say. I'm going to give you a treat. You're here in the seat. Why not? You're here in the seat. Let's give you a treat. Frankie B is back and we'll talk more about it after this break.

[00:22:28]

All right, and we're back just having conversation during the break. The drug culture is strong these days. The force is with the kids. It's strange. Yeah, I don't think it's strange.

[00:22:38]

I mean, I guess.

[00:22:39]

If we had all that access that people have today to the drugs, I'm not a legalized weed, weed.

[00:22:46]

Is basically a joke. The testing kits alone. You can just go buy kits and test the drugs.

[00:22:50]

You can test the drugs? But you were talking about how here in Atlanta, in one of the suburbs, there's a big mushroom and cocaine culture. And I'm just am too scared. I would be too scared to do cocaine at this stage in the universe.

[00:23:04]

Oh, please. We're going to have a heart attack.

[00:23:06]

We can't do that. No. First of all, we're going to have a heart attack. Yeah.

[00:23:08]

I'm not trying to stroke out at 40.

[00:23:11]

No. There were some nights where I'm sure I was on the edge of some death. Death, right? Yes. I watched a girl flip and flop from a cocaine overdose, and that pretty much put me...

[00:23:20]

Cure my. We got lucky. I'm talking about rolling the dice with kids and drug. Listen, I survived at once. I'm not trying to push my envelope.

[00:23:27]

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid, is that I did so much.

[00:23:30]

I should have died 33 times. That's right.

[00:23:33]

At 29 years old or whatever the last time I did it was 33 or however old it was. I did a bachelor party one time, and I swear I had a hose for a nose at one point. I worked in the restaurant business, whatever, we just did it.

[00:23:47]

All the time. If you didn't do it, you wouldn't.

[00:23:49]

Have had a job. That's true, because I had to stay awake and be alert, and then you try and get to sleep after your shift. It's a whole fucking thing. But the last time I did it, I literally did just a little bit, and it was enough. I'm afraid now that my heart is going to fucking explode if I try it. So for the last however many years, I've just been like, You know? No. Yeah, plus I have children. Just say no. This is the most irresponsible thing that you could possibly do is bring narcotics into the house or be driving your children or whatever.

[00:24:14]

Yeah, any of it.

[00:24:15]

Yeah. But had we had access, like these kids and adults have access now, I think we probably would have been dead. It's just too easy. It's way too easy. Well, thank God for small favors. All right, listen, Frankie B, you've heard him. Is he your favorite commercial break foil? Tell me truthfully.

[00:24:37]

I love Frankie. Okay. I think he's a douch nostle.

[00:24:42]

Oh, yeah, there's no question about that.

[00:24:43]

But I do like watching him try to impart knowledge on anyone.

[00:24:48]

Including himself.

[00:24:51]

I scream at him.

[00:24:53]

I think he's like an empty vessel a little bit. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. He picks up little dribs.

[00:24:58]

And drabs. He definitely did too much cocaine back in the '80s. Oh, yeah. You can tell by looking at him.

[00:25:04]

Yeah, because he didn't pick up any useful information in the '80s or '90s.

[00:25:08]

That's where the rest of his brain cells are probably left.

[00:25:11]

Yeah, he traveled from the '70s to 2020s, and he's a time traveler, I think. He's got the same attitudes and ambitions of a guy in 1978. But I do have to say my heart is fond of Frankie. I have a very soft spot in my heart for Frankie, even though he's a douche-nozle, and even though he's clearly machismo and chauvinistic and all that other stuff, and he has no good ideas, and he rambles on forever. He's like me, so I have a little soft spot in my heart for the guy. I feel like just a little twist in our life stories, and I might have been, Frankie- The same guy. -on YouTube talking to 200 people. About the 10 signs you should-.

[00:25:51]

That's the true secret, Frankie. It's really Brian, you all. He just puts on a wig. That's right. A little spray tan.

[00:25:57]

Look at my body. And a lot more hair. A lot more hair. Just the wig. Yes, and tattoos, and scarred face. But anyway, I found a Frankie B video we have not touched on yet, and it's the signs that she wants a second date. Oh, perfect. I just can't wait to hear what Frankie has to say about this. This is going to be rich. Anytime Frankie starts talking about dating, I get really excited because I know it's going to be a good one. All right, without further ado, I was trolling on the internet.

[00:26:27]

As you do.

[00:26:28]

Like to do. As I do like to do. And let's take a listen to Frankie. By the way, this entire video is done in front of his 1979 Corvette or whatever that thing is.

[00:26:41]

So, gentlemen, in today's video, we're going to go over five things that you could do to look more sexy.

[00:26:47]

Oh, I'm sorry. Five things you can do to look more sexy. I'm sorry, I have another.

[00:26:52]

Video, too. From this guy.

[00:26:53]

That's right. I said, more sexy over the age of 50. Are you ready? Let's rock it.

[00:27:04]

I mean, anyone that does appeal out at the beginning of their videos, their dating videos, has got an issue. If you're doing a car, if you're doing a car video, then I can understand appealing out. What car is that, by.

[00:27:16]

The way? Is that a Jackord? No, it's a Corvette. It's probably a mid to late '70s.

[00:27:20]

I do have to say that's a.

[00:27:22]

Beautiful car. It is. I love it.

[00:27:23]

It's dark hunter green, which is a good color.

[00:27:26]

I like it. I love the stingray. Yeah. I'm doing.

[00:27:34]

Too much cocaine at the salon.

[00:27:38]

Oh, come on, Frankie.

[00:27:40]

Oh, my God. This is his old intro, which I think is just classic. This is the girl he did the… We're watching the beginning of the video. The girl that he recently did the sit-down interview with, this was her. I don't think they're dating. I think they're just friends.

[00:27:54]

How do you be friends of Frankie?

[00:27:56]

You have no common sense in your noodle.

[00:27:59]

Or you just tolerate it because it's just pure entertainment everywhere you go.

[00:28:02]

Yeah, that's true. She did seem like she was rather intelligent when she was on the thing. So I don't know. You get lucky. If I was in Frankie's Circle, I'd be friends with Frankie, too. You can, yeah. We keep this just for high entertainment. Okay, here.

[00:28:19]

We go. What is going on, everybody? Welcome to the video. If this is your first time here. My name is Frank Minardo. And this channel, it's geared for the mature man out there who wants to his game, look and feel better about himself over the age of 50.

[00:28:33]

Over the age of 50. I love that voice. I know. He's in front of his beautiful Corvette. I'll say it's a beautiful Corvette in a parking lot, and he's standing in front of the camera. So you can see basically his knees to the top of his head. Those jeans are so fucking tight on him. I mean, he is definitely trying to show off his package. Yeah, it's more sexy. We're going to talk about it. Okay, now you tell me whether or not he's got a package he's working with over there because I don't know how to determine through jeans.

[00:29:00]

Health, grooming, fitness, fashion, everything that has to do with being the mature man. So in today's video, we're going to talk about five things that you can do to look more sexier.

[00:29:13]

I'm just thinking about the scene in the local park where he's parked. He just did.

[00:29:18]

A big circle and.

[00:29:19]

Pulled his car right.

[00:29:20]

Back where he started.

[00:29:22]

I'm thinking about the children, the parents with children. Let's go, quick, honey. I think there's going to be a casualty event. Let's go.

[00:29:30]

There's a lot of you guys out there that are going, I don't want to look more sexier. Well, if.

[00:29:35]

You're one of the-Is that Tony Danza? No, that's some asshole with a really nice car.

[00:29:42]

Those couch potato men, all right, that's been happily married for 30-plus years. Think I bless you. Stay on that couch, don't do nothing about your look, and continue to deteriorate. But if you.

[00:29:54]

Make it sound like people are dying because they're married, Frankie, come on. First of all, second of all, anything you say on this channel, I have a suspicion this was you at one point. You were married. I don't think for.

[00:30:05]

30 years. He called himself a couch potato man.

[00:30:06]

He decided to make a change before he deteriorated. Before he became dust on the couch, you bunch of lazy assholes.

[00:30:14]

Are a 50 plus year old, and you do want to up your game, and you do want to look more sexy over the age of 50? Then I got the video for you. I mean, let's face it, guys. You know what? There's a lot of us our age out there that has the date.

[00:30:31]

Well, can we please use prepositions correctly? I mean, for God's sakes. Like, has had, had, we, owner. He says odor. Odor. Odor. We should be over, but he's saying odor.

[00:30:43]

Can't just walk into a date, your normal self and think that you're going to get the girl you want. Maybe you need to make some changes in your life.

[00:30:51]

All right? You can't expect to just walk in and be yourself and have somebody like you. You've got to complete nonsense. You know what you got to do? You got to change into a wolf, but don't force it.

[00:31:03]

It's got to be an honest translation.

[00:31:04]

That's right. You got to be an honest translation. It's got to come from the heart, guys.

[00:31:08]

Ready, let's get started in this video. Let's talk about some things that you can do to absolutely look more sexier over the age.

[00:31:16]

Of 50. No more sexier.

[00:31:18]

Look, the English of these videos is terrible.

[00:31:22]

For one, it's to have amazing hair.

[00:31:26]

Believe it or not.

[00:31:27]

No such luck, Brian.

[00:31:30]

Oh.

[00:31:30]

Fuck. You better hope she doesn't leave you.

[00:31:33]

I'm fucked, man. I'm just fucked. If Ashton leaves me, everybody look out.

[00:31:39]

Hey, it's.

[00:31:39]

Me, Frankie's follicles.

[00:31:41]

Speaking of amazing hair, can.

[00:31:43]

You please put me back in the Pete Street dish? I hate being on your head. I hate it.

[00:31:48]

And this is a fact. Women do like men with longer, luxurious hair. That's right. I did say luxurious. You guys are hearing a few words that maybe we're only spoken when it came to women's hair.

[00:32:03]

What are you talking about?

[00:32:06]

It's number one on the list because he's most proud of his hair.

[00:32:11]

God damn right, Tina. You called it like you saw it. He's throwing this fast. He is basically showing the batter which pitch he's going to throw. When you say that, it's because you have long.

[00:32:23]

Luxurious hair. Next up is going to be the sports car, the belt buckle, and the sunglasses.

[00:32:27]

That's it, 100 %. How tall you are, how buff you are, and what car you drive. Guaranteed those things are going to be included into this.

[00:32:34]

To be more sexier.

[00:32:35]

That's right. More most sexier. Just. Yeah, more most sexier. Let me remind you, it wasn't a month ago, Frankie was doing a video on how he was losing his luxurious hair.

[00:32:47]

Not the case anymore, guys. Things are changing. You have to get out of your dinosaur world of living in the past. This is a new era.

[00:32:56]

You got to get out of your dinosaur world of living with short hair. It's so paleo. You guys got to get out there, get long hair. Like a Llama has long hair. That's how long you want your hair.

[00:33:09]

Dinosaur Pass. I mean, the '90s had long hair, the '70s had long hair. The '60s had long hair. What are you talking.

[00:33:15]

About, Frankie? The Beatniks had long hair.

[00:33:17]

Everybody, long hair. We've been trying to remove man bun for the last decade.

[00:33:20]

That's right. And Samson had long hair. Let's not forget this is biblical.

[00:33:23]

Subtle down, Frankie.

[00:33:25]

Like you're bringing back some trend that no one knew about.

[00:33:28]

Before you guys go and get the same haircut that you've been getting now for years and years and years, which is short on the side, semi-short on the top, you have either a part on the left, a part on the right, and that's the way you wear your hair. Guys, that's the same old, same old. That's boring.

[00:33:46]

That's boring. That's the same old, same old. You know what you want to do? You got a razor, a dick into your head. That's what the girls are looking for, the actual size. You have to say, maybe smaller than appears in a mirror. You know what I'm saying, guys? By the way, if you don't have the hair that can be long, you are absolutely most fuckedest. I'm just letting you know. More fuckedered.

[00:34:07]

More fuckedered. Three-fifty-plus year-old man has out there. Why don't you change it up? Why don't you grow your hair out? I can't grow my hair.

[00:34:16]

Out, and even if I did, it takes a lot of maintenance, and I'm not interested. Is it okay that I kept my head shaved? I thought that shaved heads were sexy.

[00:34:25]

I love bald men.

[00:34:26]

Yeah, I think it depends. Beauty? Buddy is in the eye of the beholder, as they used to say. Let me tell you something else my dad used to say.

[00:34:35]

No more banana jobs.

[00:34:36]

You could son a dog's ass twice a year, but his balls still might not get tanned. I'm just sharing that with you, okay?

[00:34:43]

Taint tanning.

[00:34:43]

Experimenting with it right now, okay?

[00:34:45]

That taint right. I'm a.

[00:34:46]

Little bit older than 50. I'm a year away from 60. So even.

[00:34:50]

At 60. A little bit older than 50 is not a year away from 60. A little bit older than 50 is 52.

[00:34:55]

This is Frankie Math.

[00:34:57]

Yeah, I'd love it.

[00:34:58]

I'm stepping out the box. I'm stepping out of my comfort zone, and I'm trying something a little different. I like the way it feels. I'm telling you, you got to get used to the several different looks and growths first that you're going to go through with this haircut, because every time it gets a little longer over your ears, you're going to want to run, you're going to want to cut it. But you got to get through that.

[00:35:20]

What in the good are you.

[00:35:21]

Talking about? He's talking about, yeah, you're not burying a loved one. That's just growing out your hair. Yeah.

[00:35:30]

That was really funny. It's so true, though. You're giving a 15-paragraph anecdotal conversation on someone who grows their hair and how they're going to have to get through it. Thoughts and prayers, Frankie. Thoughts and prayers.

[00:35:48]

That's what I did. I kept getting through the, Oh, my God, I'm going to cut it. And it's getting to the point now where I think I like the length. I maybe want to go maybe a couple more inches.

[00:35:58]

I bet you want a couple more inches. Yeah. I'm the most biggest. - with.

[00:36:02]

Longer hair. You can wear it in so many more different styles. Straight back, okay, I can actually take this. I could ponyail it. I could man bun. Please don't- I could pull the top basically.

[00:36:14]

Oh, my-.

[00:36:15]

Please don't, Frankie. Oh, my God. He's making a man bun. Frankie, don't. Hey, don't do it, Frankie. Don't go there. Please. You're one year away from 60. Act your age for one minute. One minute, act your age. You are not the world's most interesting man. Or that guy that keeps on stepping out of a Ferrari. Have you seen this guy on Instagram? No. The dude where they just film him stepping out of a Ferrari, some beautiful place in Italy or Rome or wherever the fuck he is. He is all gray, big gray beard, and he is like a silver fox.

[00:36:41]

Like the Dozechi's guy.

[00:36:42]

Like the Dozechi guy, but with a man bun. Now, that guy gets away with it because he is a really, I think any human being could identify him as an attractive man. Frankie, on the other hand, doesn't even have enough hair for a man bun, but here he goes. Here we go.

[00:36:56]

Section here, and I can man bun this. There's so many options. I mean, I could... So many options.

[00:37:02]

I'm so sexy. All the women think so. God damn. If it wasn't for this YouTube video, no one would know how sexy I am.

[00:37:09]

Lean it to this side. I can lean it to that side. I can leave it long over my ears. I could pull it back over my ears. Throughout the day, you can have several different hairstyles. Just by the way, you take your hands and maneuver it.

[00:37:23]

Through your hair. I'm sorry.

[00:37:24]

But this is- It's not a maneuver.

[00:37:26]

Yeah, it's not a maneuver. You don't maneuver your hair. You move your hair. First of all. Second of all, this sounds a lot like conversations I've had way high on cocaine. You know what I'm saying? A 15-minute dissertation on how to move.

[00:37:38]

Your hair. He just did an eight.

[00:37:39]

Ball, obviously. Oh, yeah. Supposedly, allegedly, we don't know that Frankie is actually doing drugs, but this sure does sound like a conversation you would have on drugs. I'm just saying.

[00:37:50]

Trust me. If you're working in an office, if you're trying to get a girl's attention, I think that's a great way. Do your hair a little different, walk in front of her, give her that look.

[00:38:01]

She'll notice me. If you're trying to get fired from your job for sexual harassment, I'm telling you what.

[00:38:06]

To do. Can you imagine what a date with this guy must be like? No. Can I go to Chicago and try to find him on a dating app?

[00:38:12]

In the greater Chicago land area? Fuck, yeah. Just set your Bumble to Chicago.

[00:38:17]

That's right, worldwide.

[00:38:18]

Oh, yeah. I think he's dating somebody now, though. Or maybe not. I don't know. You should do that.

[00:38:23]

He'd still go on a date with me, I'm sure.

[00:38:24]

You should set it. But you got to set your age, your own age. I think you're-.

[00:38:29]

Well, that's 15 years. I'm young enough, I think.

[00:38:32]

I think he says in all his videos that when you're 50, you should go for someone no younger than 40. But I do not believe that because he's had girls on his videos. That to me, they look like 26 years old. That's right. What is that? What is that? Now he's standing in front of a train. What the fuck? Damn. That was some fucking great editing right there. Wow. Yeah. Here's a shot of me in front of a train. Here's a shot in front of me, a light post.

[00:38:58]

It's a hot one out here today. So if you see these sweat stains, I apologize in advance.

[00:39:04]

If you see these sweat stains- What are you doing? -imagine they're gistains. Oh, yeah.

[00:39:09]

It's 95 degrees out here. All right, so tip number two, and that's to have strategically shaved body hair. That's right.

[00:39:20]

Oh, my God, Frankie. Please don't go here. Strategically shaved body hair. Hang on.

[00:39:26]

Does he think men over 50 haven't considered manscaping ever in.

[00:39:31]

Their life? No, he's making the assumption.

[00:39:33]

Come.

[00:39:34]

On. I think most guys that I know, sometime in the '90s, when Queer Eye for the Straight Guy came on, most men, because that was an incredibly popular show for a hot minute there. On almost every episode, Carson, whatever his name is, that Carson guy would walk into houses with guys that were unkept, just not attractive, and they would turn them into very attractive men in short order, and Carson would harp on the body hair. You'd say you have to shave correctly. Frankie is making the assumption none of us have seen a television since 1932.

[00:40:12]

Back in the dinosaur ages.

[00:40:13]

That's right. I don't know. I guess there are people who don't attend to their body hair, but they tend to be in cults or still looking for the grateful dead.

[00:40:23]

Or in Paris.

[00:40:24]

Or in Paris. They're either on the road with fish or in a cult. You know what I'm saying?

[00:40:30]

Okay. Strategically. Now, if I had it my way, okay? I would have all guys to have no body hair. There's a lot of women that like it. It's a good, clean, smooth look.

[00:40:42]

That shows- Do you know how long it would take to shave all this hair off my body.

[00:40:45]

Why does he care if men have body hair? I'm curious now.

[00:40:49]

He's just trying to solve world hunger. Men, listen up.

[00:40:54]

Body hair is sexy. Yes. Don't go hairless.

[00:40:57]

Don't go hairless. We're hairless. Yeah, and by the way, I'm with it on the women, too. I understand that it's a very attractive thing for some guys to have for a girl to have zero body hair. That's too weird. That's too weird. But I think it's weird. I just think it's weird. I think it's a little strange. I'm not saying -.

[00:41:14]

But please don't shave your legs, guys.

[00:41:15]

Come on, dude. Don't shave your legs. Don't shave your legs. Trim them like I do every third day.

[00:41:20]

If.

[00:41:20]

You're a wucky. Yes, because I have hair everywhere except for my head. I have hair on my teeth, I think.

[00:41:28]

That you've got good hygiene practices, but there's a lot of guys that don't like that, and I respect that. There's a lot of women that don't like that. Hey, you got to respect that, too. But come on, guys, let's call a.

[00:41:41]

Spade- You got to respect that. But come on, guys, let's call a spade- You're a hairy asshole. I mean, come on, Frankie. Get it together, dude. You think everybody cares about what... You think most men care to be bald from head to toe, except for their hair?

[00:41:57]

I don't think so. Swimmers.

[00:41:58]

Swimmers. Yeah, that's true. That's it. But there's a good reason to be bald. That's a good reason to shave. Sure. Yeah. I wonder what Ryan Lockdee looks like on a random Tuesday.

[00:42:08]

Like an oil dolphin.

[00:42:09]

Yeah. Not anymore. He probably looks like a lookie. What's that Michael Phelp's up to? Let's see what he... After years of shaving his body, he probably has no interest in shaving anything.

[00:42:22]

100 %.

[00:42:23]

Okay, if you've got a lot of back hair and shoulder hair, we got to get rid of that, all right?

[00:42:29]

Okay, back hair and shoulder hair, I agree with you. Sure. Yes, okay, 100 %.

[00:42:32]

Then real long hair on your arms, okay? It doesn't look good, okay? You can trim that up. You don't need to have these big, guerrilla arms. It's not sexy. It's not something that a man has to have to be a man, okay?

[00:42:47]

Oh, thanks for cluing us in, Frankie. I just-.

[00:42:53]

Why is he so obsessed with male body hair?

[00:42:54]

He's been obsessed with what guys are doing from the beginning. I think he's trying to have... Here's my holistic thing on Frankie. I think he's trying to be the alpha male for guys over 50. He's trying to get that crowd, that alpha male crowd for the guys over 50. But what he fails to understand is that the alpha male crowd over 50, they're not looking to be cosmopolitan. They're looking to be bruteish, right? That's the thing. They want to be like Joe Regan sitting in an ice bath for 50 minutes at a time, killing a deer with their bare hands. I'm not napping men's necks. Yeah.

[00:43:31]

Not Metro.

[00:43:32]

That's right.

[00:43:32]

This.

[00:43:33]

Is outdated, Frankie. Going to space with Elon Musk. They're not interested in shaving their legs for five hours, Frankie.

[00:43:40]

Lean it up. And if you must have chest hair, okay, trim it up. Don't be a guerilla. And far too many of you guys still are, okay? If your body hair is taking up more than 40 % of your body, you need to.

[00:43:54]

Get rid of something. Tina, I'm going to disrobe. I want you to tell me what percentage of my body is my hair appropriate or not appropriate? 40%. Seems like a pretty specific number, doesn't it?

[00:44:04]

Where are these statistics coming from, Frankie? How many bodies.

[00:44:07]

Do you look at? Exactly.

[00:44:09]

So here, just be neatly groomed, okay? And women will definitely appreciate that. We're going to also talk about your facial hair. If you're a gentleman that you can't quite grow a full beard, it's real patchy and scraggy, don't grow one at all. Nothing looks worse than a man with this patchy, sporadic beard, especially if it's half black and it's half gray, not a good look, okay?

[00:44:37]

God forbid you actually age for one second.

[00:44:39]

Yeah, and I totally disagree.

[00:44:41]

Totally disagree. Totally disagree. I totally disagree with this. But I do understand what he's saying about the scraggily patchy.

[00:44:47]

Yeah, but no man over 50 is going to try to grow that in. Yeah, that's true. Maybe a 20-year-old trying to feel a lot more grown.

[00:44:54]

I agree with you. I think that by the time you get to like 35.

[00:44:59]

You're- Your facial hair.

[00:45:00]

Patterns are set. You know which ones look good on you and which don't. Yeah, that's right.

[00:45:03]

If you cannot grow a nice beard, then get rid of it. You can opt for some shadow, okay? Shadow is a very, very sexy look.

[00:45:14]

So tip number- You can opt for a shadow. You can get.

[00:45:16]

The permission, Frankie.

[00:45:17]

Yeah, first of all. Second of all, I don't think you opt for a shadow. I think everyone has one.

[00:45:22]

While we get our hair going a little longer, tip number two, we're going to take care of our body hair. You know what? With the longer hair and a little bit of the beard shadow, you see how you're starting to change your look? You're starting to look more sexier.

[00:45:36]

Oh, my God.

[00:45:37]

Yes, that is amazing.

[00:45:39]

Well, if Frankie says it, it must be true. It's not called a beard shadow. It's called a five o'clock shadow. Let's get it right, Frankie. Also, let's take a short break and we'll be back with more Frankie B shenanigans of the commercial break.

[00:45:59]

Let's cut to the chase. We love you and we want to hear your sweet, angelic voices asking us for advice. So give us a call and leave us a voicemail at 626-ask-tcb3.

This episode is sponsored in part by our good friends at Uncommon Goods. It's that time of year, the time of year when you spend too much money and entirely too much time trying to buy your friends and family the perfect gift. As I've mentioned before, me and my family members sometimes get each other gag gifts because at my age, it's just gosh to ask for a Tonka truck wrapped up under the tree. But what about the family? What about the little ones? When you have 12 to 18 children like I do, finding that perfect gift for every single one of them is a monumental task. That's why we're grateful that uncommongoods. Com makes finding that perfect gift easier than ever. One of my daughters is really into dresses. She makes 14 costume changes a day, and almost every single one of the items on her Christmas list is some clothing. Uncommon goods has a wide and unique array of clothing and dresses for kids. Bam, knock that one-off the list. How about this? One of my children really likes my Apple watch. He wants a watch, but he doesn't even know how to tell time yet.

[00:47:41]

How about a watch that teaches children how to tell time? It's all available on Uncommon Goods. And now for commercial break listeners, because Uncommon Goods is so good to us, you get 15 % off your next gift when you 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're all out of the ordinary. I think that could very well be a tagline for the commercial break. You'll find something for almost everyone at Uncommongoods. Com. So go there now, Uncommongoods. Com/tcb. That's Uncommongoods. Com/tcb and get 15% off your next order. And of course, as always, we want to thank Uncommon goods for being a sponsor of the commercial break.

[00:48:27]

All right, back where we left off here, Frankie B is trying to give us five tips to look sexier over the age of 50. Now, just to be clear, no one here is over the age of 50, but it's just too good not to talk about. Frankie is a, I don't know, what do you call him? Like a world-class idiot through and through? 100 %. He's an empty vessel for our comedy. Yes. Yes. And so let's get back to it. Waste no time. Let's get back to it.

[00:48:56]

Tip number three, it's to be neat and clean. Guys, I'm talking hygiene. There's more to hygiene than taking a shower every day. There's more to it than a little soap and water, a little bit of shampoo. When was the last time you guys actually looked at the quality of your skin? Are you doing a skincare routine? Are you doing the proper steps?

[00:49:17]

Yes, but I only started a year ago, so I think I'm fucked. Does Botox.

[00:49:20]

Count.

[00:49:21]

Frankie? Yeah, does Botox count? What do you think about Botox?

[00:49:25]

Have.

[00:49:26]

You had it? No. No? Have you had friends that have had it? Yes. Do you think itsounds like it's too much.

[00:49:30]

I mean, it's the long term effects that freak me out.

[00:49:33]

The most. What are the long term effects of Botox?

[00:49:35]

You've seen women that have been doing it for a while.

[00:49:37]

Yeah, they get.

[00:49:38]

They like- It's lumpy and weird.

[00:49:39]

Well, those are fillers. I think the Botox part of it kills your ability to make certain facial expressions. And that, I think, comes from just doing it too much, like being addicted to it. Going for it every month and a half when you're supposed to do it every six to twelve months, because I have a friend who's so young and her face just doesn't move, and it's-.

[00:50:03]

It's.

[00:50:03]

Creepy. It is a little weird. I got to be honest. But for Halloween, she doesn't dress up. You know who you are.

[00:50:11]

Because, guys, if you don't take care of your skin, what's going to happen? Well, the older you get, you're going to become weathered. You're going to become dehydrated looking if you're not moisturizing. Moisturizing goes far more than creams that you apply to your face. If you don't drink enough-.

[00:50:27]

It's creams that you apply to your penis and creams that you apply to your naked legs or your shaved butt.

[00:50:34]

Your hairless body.

[00:50:35]

That's right. If you really want to go for it, you got to moisturize your taint, guys. You don't want anybody down there going, Well, that looks dehydrated.

[00:50:45]

Water, all right? Your skin is going to become dehydrated. It's going to shrink. It's going to shrivel. Guys, it's like pouring water on a dry sponge. What happens? That water hits that dry sponge and it explodes off. That's the same thing that happens to your- What?

[00:51:00]

Okay, have you ever had a sponge before? Have you ever used a sponge before, Frankie? I thought you might have, but I guess not, because I don't know which dry sponge you've used that explodes water off of it. But usually my dry sponge is suck up all the water.

[00:51:16]

Suck it right up.

[00:51:17]

Again, if you're not moisturizing it, it's just like putting stuff on there and it bounces right off. So if you take a wet sponge, a fully hydrated sponge, and you pour water on it, what happens, gentlemen? Well, the water seeps into that sponge and it gets into the cells of that sponge.

[00:51:33]

What in the good fuck are.

[00:51:34]

You talking about?

[00:51:35]

What is he on about? I don't know. This is no Mythbusters episode. That's for sure. He's got it backwards.

[00:51:42]

That's the same thing that will happen to your skin, giving you a more youthful look. Take a look at your teeth. I'm not saying you got to have the straightest teeth in the world, guys, but you do need to have white teeth. If they're not white, go get them whitened, okay?

[00:51:58]

If they're not white, spend $5,000 and get them whitened right this second. How offensive. You got a whole country over there in Europe. They don't whiten their teeth. What's going on? True teeth whitening is expensive. It's like a thousand dollars to get your teeth whitened, like the actual whitening. Those whitening trays, I've tried them before, they work okay, but they don't.

[00:52:21]

Work best. No, they're not glowing in the dark.

[00:52:23]

And then you have these people that are... You're right, because you have these people who are the exact opposite whose teeth are unnatural white. I don't like it. I don't like it either. I was just reading an article about this doctor who does the veneers to the stars or whatever. And he says that every time I go to do veneers for a celebrity, I make sure that I match the color as closely as possible to their original teeth, which are probably white in the first place because they're celebrities and they take care of their teeth. But there needs to be a little bit of color in there. A lot of the people who get veneers, their teeth are just so fucking bright white. It's crazy. Yeah, it looks toxic. Yeah. Hey, Doc, I want veneers, but I need them a little yellow. Can you do that? Can we.

[00:53:06]

Put them in a- Can you darken these up a little for me? Yeah.

[00:53:09]

Can you put them in my studio where I smoke cigar for a couple of months and then we'll figure it out? Thanks.

[00:53:14]

A big freaking deal. Half you guys are just too lazy in it. It's our nose hair. It's our ear hair. It's paying attention to detail. I'm going to tell you what aggravates the crap out of me.

[00:53:27]

Oh, here it comes. I do agree with you about the nose and the ear hair. There is no excuse for having nose and ear hair that's longer than the hair on your head. None. Zero. It's so easy to trim.

[00:53:38]

He shouldn't be waving at me from across the table. No.

[00:53:41]

This is this guy that I don't even know to tell you where I know him from because I'm sure he'll pick it up right away. But there is a guy that I have spent some time with. I spend time with a couple of times a year. And his nose hair is literally whistles when he breathes in and out of his nose. And you can see the hair is moving.

[00:53:58]

It has to annoy him. Please, please.

[00:54:00]

I want to get him a trimmer for Christmas. Just send it to him and say, Yeah, that's it. I'll pay someone to do it for you. Just do it. I don't have to look at it the next time we're eating a hamburger. I don't have to worry if your nose hair is flying into my hamburger. It's fucking disgusting.

[00:54:16]

I got a YouTube channel. I talk about nose hair in ear air, and I'm always on it. And do you believe I still miss it? So, yeah, you still can miss it. You have to be on the attack with your appearance each and every day. So if you're out, you want to be sexy, you meet this new girl, listen, they want to look at you, and they want to be able to lick anything off of any part of your body.

[00:54:40]

That's not true. That is not true. Let's hold on one second here, Frankie. Stop the tape. Let's talk about this for a second.

[00:54:49]

That's a sweeping assumption, Frankie.

[00:54:51]

I get the part of the relationship where you literally feel like you could eat somebody's face. You know what I'm saying? That like, such ravenous attraction, you just want to lick them all over. But you don't because there are certain parts of the body that probably aren't primed for licking. You don't want your mouth on them. Yeah, like the back of a knee or something. You just don't want.

[00:55:09]

Your- It's.

[00:55:09]

Definitely not a nose. No, certainly not inside your nose. And I'm sorry, it turns me on to no end. But I don't like when people stick their tongue in my ear. No. It drives me a little crazy, actually. Yeah. It turns me on when you nibble on my ear, but when you stick a tongue.

[00:55:24]

In my ear- No.

[00:55:24]

Don't leave the tongue out of it. No, I'm afraid like, When's the last time I used Q-tips? No, don't leave your Q-tips, no? Yeah.

[00:55:30]

At any time. So being neat and clean, you just might get that.

[00:55:38]

Why is he standing in front of a train? Why is he outside at all if he's afraid a train is going to drive by?

[00:55:44]

It's so noisy. You're recording a video.

[00:55:46]

I know. The wind blowing.

[00:55:47]

There's no logic whatsoever. And then he's annoyed that there's a train.

[00:55:50]

He's annoyed that there's outside noises, that the world's going on around him. He parked right next to it. I know. And what is this empty parking lot? It's a train station. When you park at a train station, you should probably assume the train is coming.

[00:56:01]

It's coming. Dumb ass.

[00:56:06]

Oh, he's back to the children's park here at the playground scaring off all the children.

[00:56:12]

Tip number four, we're going to talk about posture. This is one of the most important ways of looking powerful rather than looking like a little sissy bitch, okay?

[00:56:23]

Oh. Shots fired. Yeah, indeed. Throwing fireballs. What's up, Frankie?

[00:56:29]

You guys got their shoulders slumped down, their heads down. I've gone to the gym. I've seen guys with tremendous muscles that have poor posture. It doesn't look good. I've seen guys with less muscle have great posture. And when I talk about posture, guys, again, it's getting your shoulders back. You hear this time and time again, but not too many of you guys will actually practice this. It does take practice until you get used to it. But there's a lot of short guys like myself. Okay?

[00:57:00]

I'm not... How does this not surprise me? Yeah, it's not a game. I've always felt like he was a short guy, but now he said it out loud. I feel like he's a short guy.

[00:57:07]

Definitely a short guy. Definitely a short guy.

[00:57:09]

Posture is something that is so hard to correct if you get it wrong. Yes. And with all of us having our heads down with the phones these days, I think more and more people just have this.

[00:57:19]

Weird posture. And listen, somebody over 50 is not.

[00:57:21]

Changing their posture. No. Go to a chiropractor.

[00:57:25]

Yeah, honestly.

[00:57:26]

Threatened by a taller guy because most taller guys have piss-poor posture. Shorter guys, such as myself with good posture can look taller. We can look more confident. You see, I'm not upset that I'm standing next to a taller man with poor posture because we actually look better, shorter with great posture.

[00:57:50]

I can just hear his mind going when he walks into.

[00:57:52]

A bar. He thinks he's got such.

[00:57:53]

A great idea. Yeah, he thinks he's got the best idea in the world. I'm going to go stand next to the tall guy with bad posture because I'll look better than he does. No, you won't. No, you won't. You want to know why? Because if you're tall, you will not struggle at all. Tall people, they just do things in the world we don't. I don't know. That's true. Christy and I have talked about this multiple times. Tall people always seem to be rich. You know what I'm saying? They have some rich.

[00:58:16]

Well, they don't have as much personality, that's for sure. No. But yes. It's the heels and his shoes. It's not.

[00:58:22]

His posture. Oh, yeah. He uses George... What's fucking Ron DeSantis's, his shoemaker. The lips. Yeah. Oh, and by the way, I've done a lot of research on this Ron DeSantis thing. There's no doubt he's wearing lifts. No doubt. And he still won't admit it. Like, okay, dude, you want to be a couple inches tall, or you want to look closer to the height of Donald Trump or Joe Biden or whatever? It's okay. Just tell us. Don't feel it. Yeah, just tell us, wear heels. Wear heels. You might appeal to a certain segment of the audience.

[00:58:50]

And when you walk in a room and you have great posture, what do you command? You command attention. It's the first thing that people notice about you. If you're blending the crowd with bad posture, you're never going to get noticed. So if you want to emphasize your look, nothing can be more sexier than a man with confidence.

[00:59:08]

Why is he so dramatic? Why is he so dramatic? Nothing can be more sexier than a man who's confident, a man who's mostest, confidentest.

[00:59:20]

I want that T-shirt.

[00:59:21]

More sexier. More sexier. I am more sexier. Number five, guy. Now he's in front of someone's house because he got kicked out of the park. This is the weirdest editing on a video I've ever seen. What is he doing? I have no idea. It's taking us on a tour of the greater Chicagoland area.

[00:59:37]

Now, in order to be sexy, you got to feel sexy. And how do you achieve that?

[00:59:43]

It's easy. You master-made into your couch.

[00:59:47]

You subscribe to this channel, all right? You hit that like button, then you won't miss any of my videos that's.

[00:59:53]

Going to.

[00:59:54]

Teach you.

[00:59:55]

A.

[00:59:55]

Great workout routine. You get a great skincare routine. You do all the right things when it comes to your nutrition. You get great hair. You can change everything about yourself. You can change everything.

[01:00:04]

About yourself. Yeah, every single thing about yourself.

[01:00:07]

The way you eat, the way you brush your hair, the way you dress, the way you're sleeping habits.

[01:00:12]

You could be a whole other person if you subscribe to my channel and use Frankie's 367 steps to not be you.

[01:00:20]

Smash that button.

[01:00:21]

That's right. Smash that like button. 367 short steps to not be you. Because let's face it, no one likes you. Hey, Frankie, another meandering video. We learned one thing that I agree with the bot. Got to shave that nose and those ears, guys. Got to do it. Trim them up. No one wants to see that.

[01:00:40]

Leave the legs alone for crying out loud.

[01:00:41]

Leave the what? Legs. Yeah, leave the legs alone. No one wants to see your shaved legs. No. Because once you start shaving your legs, you're going to have to keep shaving your legs.

[01:00:48]

I can say that's true. That's right.

[01:00:51]

She tells me I fucking hate it. It's just a thing that she has to do all the time. I totally understand. I wouldn't want to do it either.

[01:00:58]

She has two-thirds of our body. It's a lot.

[01:01:01]

I never thought about that. Legs are two-thirds to your body. Not my body. They're only 40 % of my body. Good old freaky B. All right, here's what you do. You go to tcb podcast. Com.

I think.

We've done enough. I think we've done enough. I'll say that I love you.

[01:02:51]

And I love you.

[01:02:53]

Best to you. Best to you. Best to you out there in the podcast universe. Do yourself a favor. If you have a minute, think about Chrissy and her family tonight. They really need all the love and support that they can get. That's all I'll say about that for now. But until next time, Tina and I always say, we do say, and we must say, goodbye. Goodbye.

[01:03:28]

No, no, hell, no.
