Oh yeah, put the smile on your face, get some gifts. Welcome back to the commercial break. I am Brian Green. This is my dear friend and gorgeous co-host, Kristen Joy.

Holy best of you, Chrissy. And best of you, Brian. And best of you out there in the podcast universe. Thanks for coming back. We appreciate it. Welcome back. Welcome back. Where do we go? Welcome back. Welcome back. Welcome back. Welcome back. Welcome back.

Since the average age of our listener is 75, they won't get that. They won't get that. But man, have we had a lot of people sending in emails lately. And you got this started and I kind of blame you. You had this, what would Frankie do? Sticker idea. And then you started mentioning it long before we even thought about putting the stick or the...

So we let people emailing for weeks and we finally just got it sent it off for a creation. So we got a lot of people checking that phone constantly with the updates on the emails and stuff. And we got a lot of listeners writing in wonderful comments, just lovely things, you're all saying lovely things. I gotta say this, we got a lot of trucker friends, a lot of listeners writing in wonderful comments, just lovely things, you're all saying lovely things. I gotta say this, we got a lot of trucker friends, a lot of trucker friends.

I love this, and you know, that's when I tend to listen to podcasting too, is in my truck. Yeah, in the cabby or truck. Oh, when you're driving. Yeah, well, that's the best time I think to knock out an episode of the commercial break, is when you're driving, sleeping or having sex, best podcast to go, fun sleep tip.

Yes. So I'm checking that phone constantly, trying to get the, you make sure we're staying up to date on all the email. So I wanna say hi to all of our trucker friends, big honk honk to you, and what do they do? Yeah, yeah, usually that was a kid. I would go by and go by the truckers

and do a honk honk sign, and they would do it. And we would love it in the car. We would be like, pull over to the truck stop and jump a hot car side and they would do it. We would love it in the car. We would be like, ah, they. Pull over to the truck stop and jump in their cab for a few minutes. I saw. Oh, I've seen that parents. Oh, I don't know what kind of parents you have. We're going to make a little extra cash.

I don't know. They missed out on that. OK, settle down, settle down before we get into Hunter Biden territory. Okay, settle down, settle down before we get into you know Hunter Biden territory So yeah, I just I just think about all these truckers as one young lady wrote into us and she said on my long hauls Sometimes 9 a.m. To 11 p.m She's driving and she's like I just love to listen to the commercial break I think you guys are great, but we think you're great. Thanks to all of our trucker friends

We love it So he's right in and then we'll give you a sticker. You can put it on the back of your cab, swear on all the toly. You're getting a name drop, and you're getting something special in the mail. If you put that sticker on a truck or a car, and then you send us a picture of it, just like you did with the 21 EPM stickers.

So, thanks so much for everyone saying all these nice words. I don't believe it. I don't believe it. I don't believe it. I don't believe it. Not a word of it. I know. I think you just want free stickers. Flattery would get you everywhere.

Do you and Jeff often argue, like, are you guys, I'm checking my phone constantly for the emails. Do you and Jeff have the little disagreements about the phone? Yes. We just had this the other day. I think it kind of builds up and builds up where, you know, rationally, I know, like we're just we're at that point in society where you're getting constant alerts, you're constantly, you know, your phone, you got the Apple Watch,

buzzing, and I looked down and I'm like, oh, Nordstrom sale, what? Nordstrom sale. I've tried to cut back on the alerts because I did. I got you know kind of irritated with Jeff. Like you're always like an adipad when we're trying to watch some fucking, da da da. He's like, what if I'm not interested in the show? He would watch.

I'll still be here next to you. It's true. Look at my phone though. But that phone is like, it's such a source of stress at all times. Now there is no separation between work and home. None. I got these fucking morons texting me a one in the morning asking me questions about

podcast and I'm like, guys, can you send me an email that I can respond to three and a half weeks from now as I usually do? Do I have to respond to your text right away? And by the way, homey don't play that game. If you text me off hours, then I won't respond to you on purpose for a very long time because I want you to know how rooted it is that you're texting me at three o'clock in the afternoon. You think I'm working at three o'clock in the afternoon? I got better things to do with my time than sit around working.

I guess take care of these. There are these little like, you know are these little subversive disagreements that go on over the attention the phone is paid over the person in front of you. And I understand the source of stress, and I'm not immune to it either, I certainly not often, but sometimes we get in these little disagreements about whose phone's doing

what at what time. And then you know that that phone is housing every bit of your world, absolutely every bit, every inch, every password, every message, every photo that you ever took is there. So you have to guard it like, I mean, you have to constantly have it with you. And if you have a spouse or a girlfriend or a boyfriend,

you have to guard that phone because you just don't really want them to know that you're into, you know, pig dick sucking. Like, you just don't want them to know that, right? This is just don't really want them to know that you're in the, you know, pig dick sucking. Like you just don't want them to know that, right? Is this not a thing you want them to know? But because of the nature of our relationships with these phones, I think it's very reasonable to expect or it's very reasonable to understand

why some spouses or significant others or all of us at some time, we get jealous of the phone. Yes. It's like, we did not have to compete with this when I was starting off in my love life relationships at the 10 or 8 of 10 years old. Now, you didn't have to do any of this because literally I had to go home, up the stairs

and turn on an answering machine to get a message from six hours ago that's no longer relevant. I had, there was no urgency whatsoever to that phone. Now, it's constant. Well, even with the flip phones, when those came out, I mean, that didn't have, it wasn't connected to the web and now.

The very first phone that I had was a Cisco, remember the Cisco, the company who made phones for a while? Okay, kind of. Is it Cisco or is that the people who sell bread? Yeah. Cisco food. Yeah. Singular wireless.

Singular wireless is what it was. Big with the Chamboards for Cisco. Oh, he does? Does he really? Hey, big. I do remember him saying that. Yeah, he actually said he liked the job a lot. Singular wireless, it was a Nokia phone is what it was.

It was one of those big Nokia phones. Yeah, did it have the rubber antenna that would screw off? Yes, of course it did. Yes, that was a great phone. And this is how you would text A, B, C. You would literally have to dial through the numbers to press those in text. So the only text messages that ever got sent or responded to were of the utmost importance.

Plus they were $2 a minute. $2 a minute. What kind of plan were you on? I was like $2 a text message. Yes, yes, I get these bills. I was on a cell phone plan with my longtime roommate. And she get these bills, like $285 for, you know, amongst where the cell phone service.

And she'd be like, what the fuck are you doing? And I'm like, I don't know, I'm just responding to people when they text me. With that phone, man, ever since it got in my hand, I knew that it was trouble because it was a constant source of my attention. And now I have to be careful because now I have the 12 children.

And so I don't want them to think that the phone is above them either. And that's easy to understand. These phones make life complicated, more complicated they need to be. And that's why I'm all on board with this. Flip phone back to the dial tone phone, bullshit that everyone's doing right now.

I think it might be time. Yeah, there's a scheduled time, maybe that you get on your computer and you check your email and you do all of that. Otherwise you got the flip phone for when people want to call or text. Here's what I started a long time ago and this is, I'm being 100% serious

and I think this has saved my literal brain. I check emails in the morning when I'm doing my number two is number three's on the PPPPWT toilet. I check my emails then and then I check my emails at the end of the day. That's the only time I check a respond to emails, because I don't fucking care otherwise, and it's just not that important.

What could, what podcast emergency could possibly be putting anybody's life in danger? Do you know what I'm saying? Why do I need to respond to the email that quickly? I really don't. And by separating, by managing my time and giving myself 20 minutes to respond to the email that quickly. I really don't. And by separating, by managing my time and giving myself 20 minutes to respond to emails in the morning and 20 minutes to respond to the emails at night, I literally have saved my brain. And how much time do you give to TLC?

Seven to 12 hours a day. That's what I was looking for. If you weren't here right now, I'd be watching some shitty TLC show. It's all on, it's all on. I know. Another room. My big fat Gypsy wig. They got a whole new lineup of shows. They brought back my strange addiction. I blame us.

I blame us. I actually blame us. I saw that. I think we're in charge of this one. Because we started doing those my strange addiction shows and listen, we're not that big. I actually don't blame us. But for some reason, it's been out of season for five years

and then all of a sudden it just starts popping up. I'm like, yeah, what if we had anything to do with it? I like to think I'm more important than I actually am. Don't you know who I think I am? Don't you know who I think I might be? Don't you know who I think you think I am? Don't you know who I imagine you think I might be? What you think of me is none of my business

Yet there's one time I swear to God show first started we did a show called chamalama ding dong. Oh, yeah Remember chamalama ding dong the famous ding dong the guy what's his name Kenny was gonna blow the corona I blow the coronavirus away Yeah a roon of Irish away. A little private jet. Yeah. Ha ha ha. Ha ha.

Here's private jet. He was blowing tornadoes in Corona virus away. You remember Kenny Copeland. It was famous. It was all around the world. So we're like three weeks into the podcast. We've done an episode called Shama Lama Ding Dong. I'm listening to Howard Stern a couple of weeks later.

You may remember this. Me mentioning this. I'm listening to Howard Stern a couple of weeks later. Howard's going, cuts the same clips, going off on the same rant. I say in our version of breaking down the clip, there's a guy behind Kenny. He's like his hype man, his fluffer.

He's whacking him off in the back, getting him ready for, you know, Christ, whatever. Cox for Christ, that whole nine ounce. So he comes out and the guy in the back his only responsibility is to talk in tongues and affirm that whatever Kenny sang with someone Kenny goes, oh, the coronavirus away. The guy in the back is like, you know, it's a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man,

a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a man, a name of a song from the movie, Animal House, right? You are my chamalamadengdon, my duop duop,

whoever's saying that song. So, Stern goes, you know, aah, that's the sound of a guy in the background, sheeeeeamalamadengdon, is what he says. In my P brain, in the back of my P brain, even though at the time we only had seven listeners. Yeah, we did. One of them was Howard Stern.

Right. That's how selfish every human being is. Well, I think the world's revolving around our own little P brain. Let's know. For like a hot minute, I go, did you hear that, Astrid? Rewind that, did you hear that?

And she's like, yeah, I did. And I go, that's what we named the show. That's the exact same thing I said. Do you think? And she looks at me and she goes, are you fucking crazy? Do you realize how few listeners you have on this show? And that most of them are me downloading at night

to make you feel better? Right. And me. And you. At the time. We all had 12 different podcast players that were downloading on every podcast player. Follow us. Follow us. Follow us. Follow us. Follow us.

So, you know, you know how it goes. So there's, what was I saying? The shame of limited. The shame of long ding dong. So, yeah, I'm sharing that I think this MyStrength addiction came back because we ended up doing MyStrength addiction breakdown videos. Let's just think that. Yeah, let's just think that. I ended up doing my straight into diction breakdown videos. Let's just think that. Yeah, let's just think that. Mm-hmm. Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee New York really wants to be a dog. You know, there are people called other kin, I think it's what they're called, have you heard of this other kin thing?

No. It's a group of people who identify not as with a certain sexual applicability or gender, or no gender, it's people who identify as other kin, like a dog or cat or a flamingo. Or an animal? Or a mouse. Yes, like an animal. They identify as flamingo. Or an animal. Or a mouse. Yes, like an animal.

They identify as an animal. And I'm talking about Furbies. I'm talking Furbies. Furbies. Wasn't that a little toy? Furbies. Take care of me. Is that a little thing that like shit every 15 minutes

and you have to clean it up with your little, was that thing everyone's carrying around for a while of Furbie? Anyway, these are people who actually believe that they are actual animals and that's how they act, their behavior reflects how they think what they're thinking about. We did the one episode with the woman

that wanted to be a cat. Yes. I think that was a purely like sexual thing if I'm being honest. I think she was just trying to keep her older boyfriend's attention, but. She put him away from his son. I put down the phone if you showed up naked on my table, pulling at my cock. Yeah, sure.

Me, me, me. Hey, can we cut it with the meowing you get to the licking and sucking? Yeah. Pretend my cock is a jar of milk. Me, me, me, me. So, these, so this other thing, these folks, you know, they would really like to be this Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah., the breed of dog. The breed of dog. Got it. Okay. And then it's like kind of robotic. So his little, you know, so he, they roll them out to a park on like a. This is how much money and time do these people have because are they going to the Hamptons? Yes. I think he's went to the ketamine parties one, two, three times. I'm just having, I'm sorry, I'm just laughing at the rolling this dog-like creature

out, knowing that there's an actual human being there. In July of 2023, when it's probably 107 degrees outside, he's in a full-fledged cally outfit. So they roll him out on this palette, like a little dolly. They roll him out on the dolly, they put him in the middle of the central park and then they let him go. And just kind of like weirdly stumbles around

but you can tell it's some kind of electronics in the leg because it's actually moving him in some very robotic way and then other dogs are coming up sniffing him and then barking at him like no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,'t get into it. Go look at the dog, show a video of the dog, Morgan, because I think people would be interested to know this. How much money this guy spent. He's obviously lives in the Hamptons, and he's just having some fun out in the Central Park, trying to track dogs. Was he also got a burning man? I could see this at Burning Man.

You know that he shows up at Burning Man. You know they're probably inviting him to Burning Man to show up. Because if you can handle the 107 degree temperatures in New York City in July, in when is Burning Man February or something? When it comes up in February in the middle of the desert, you can do that. That burning burning man to me looks like a wild ass party. That's great for the those dust storms. Yeah. You know, you see those pictures. Yeah, I do. I see those pictures. I see my friends out there. I see some friends out there, hanging out, full of dust, with goggles on,

you know, topless, you know, nipples full of sand. And coming out of the Orgy tent. Yeah, coming out of the Orgy tent, looking all sexy, high on some kind of liquid mushroom. I mean, you know, I see the whole scene that's going on over there and I think to myself, I could really get into that scene.

Like, I could fit into that scene, I think. I think I would do just great over there. But then I think about spending 10 to $15,000 just to get there and another 10 to $15,000 for every, for every costumes. And then I have to endure the actual heat and freezing temperatures at night along with the dust storms.

It just doesn't seem like fun at the end of the day. I can't even be in an Airbnb without HBO Max for more than an hour. Right. That's coming. What am I gonna do with burning, man? But it's burning, man. I can't even be in an Airbnb without HBO Max for more than an hour What am I gonna do with burning man, but it's burning man So of course they have high speed internet there. They're there. Yeah, they're probably Verizon probably put a tower there on purpose Some of the richest people in the world flying on their private jets and make these huge art installations now I think I think anyway you want to express yourself express yourself what don't get, what I cannot understand for the life of me. What's just not my vibe, it's not my scene, it's not my thing.

On Instagram, there's this post that's going around. I've seen it four or five times already. Of a guy who's got buckets of sand lined up to the ceiling, red buckets of sand lined up to the ceiling, right? So let's call it 15 buckets of sand. Are we talking about in Burning Man? No, this isn't in one of those art installation things. Oh, okay. Like the, I don't know what you call it 15 buckets of sand. Are we talking about in Burning Man? No, this isn't then one of those art installation things. Oh, okay.

Like the, yeah, I don't know what you call it, live arts or a performative art or I'm not sure. Variantial art. Experiential art. So the guy standing there with these 15 buckets, videos starts and there's a string attached to the very top bucket, right? And there is a crowd, hundreds of people around him in some fancy performative art museum somewhere I don't get to invite it. And and he slowly the guy that's a dog is invited. The guy that's a dog is probably the same guy that did this art installation. He pulls the string slowly and as he pulls it the

buckets start to start to curve and then fall in the ground. And when they do, it is amazing, because everybody in the room... Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Yeah! And I'm thinking to myself, who's the poor fucking janitor who's got to clean up all the goddamn sand that just fell on the floor? That's my first thought. You made a mess. You're like a three-year-old, P.P. Po-Poo. You're like, don't tape-old, PPPO-POO. You're like, Dante, Dante, baby.

A little Satan baby over there. Who's gonna clean up my fucking mess? Ha-ha-ha. That's this is the R.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.ing an ant. Ha ha ha. I cannot for the life of me understand how that's art, but it is. It was it meant, it probably was meant to represent like, you know, the sands of time. The sands of time. Falling through. The withering sand. Fall through our hands.

Send through our fingers. That's right, Chrissy. Send, fed, send. Slipping through our fingers. I only used organic sand here. There is no crossbed sand. Sand fed sand if you will organic from the sea naturally made. I'd made sure that no other sand particles were damaged in the collecting of the sand. I collected every sand by hand. It's a sand by hand performance of art. It's hand fed sand is what it is, Kasi. Nice. And now it's

fallen on the ground. We've destroyed it like all human beings eventually do. I would like to now introduce you to my next masterpiece, Cr in bed. That's right. That's right. It's just crazy. I can't wait to round one. Yeah. You eat crackers in my bed. You aren't be, yeah, that's automatically disqualifications.

Yeah, crackers. Any food in bed is dangerous. I know. Here's what I used to do. I like to do breakfast in bed though. We call it a bed picnic here at the house is what we call it and on occasion. No, mainly at hotels. We'll take a big towel. We'll throw it on your own bed. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey, settle down. Someone's gonna sleep there. It's true. And there is nothing worse than having a little crumb,

you know, sliding around on your butt or your back or something worse. Nothing worse. Nothing worse is when you get down, you tuck your feet in and your nice cozy covers. It's a nice chilly night outside and you tuck your feet in. You got the air conditioning crank to 61 degrees.

So the entire household is gonna be frozen by the morning. So you know, you make sure your selfish needs are taken care of. You tuck yourself into bed and then you feel that thing on your foot and you're like, the fuck is that? And then you look and it's like a cheerio. Who the fuck is eating cheerios in my bed? Who's doing that? Oftentimes I just then push the children out of the bed. Under the floor. That's your punishment. There's a performance of art for you. I throw my children out of the floor. I hate it.

I hate it when there are crumbs in the bed. But I'm okay with the bed picnic every once in a while. But I have to manage that bed picnic very efficiently. I want everyone sitting right on the towel. Don't lean over. Don't turn your head. Nope, nope. Don't touch the remote control.

What are you crazy? You gotta wait a little over your head. Nope, don't touch her remote control. What are you crazy? You're gonna wait a little over your hands. You should see the way I hose my children down after they eat. I'm like, okay, come here. Let me hose you down. Let me wipe every crevice in your body because I know you're eventually gonna get that

out of my couch. Gives me crazy. That's not a bad idea at the age or kids are happy. Yeah, I mean, what else are you supposed to do? If you let these kids run ripshod over you, you gotta be a man of authority and action. That's what I say, which is why this, the fuck, I'm losing it,

I hide in the studio here, I hide in that at night. You know, my children aren't eating in the bed. I just don't know about it. I walk at the other day and they're in there.

And Daddy's not here. They're on the couch eating some crackers or something. And I'm like, oh wait, oh wait, hey. Who told you you could eat crackers on the couch? Mommy. Hey, but when I allowed you crackers on the couch, but Mommy said, well daddy's not looking, it's okay. Oh really?

Okay, I'll get with your mother. Astrid, don't say a word. Okay babe. I'll be in the studio.

Esther and I had an opportunity to shoot off for a couple of days and relax without the children, and in an effort to reduce our irritation level, we decided to only use carry-on bags. When we got to the hotel, I noticed that my 5 o'clock shadow was a 9 o'clock shadow, and I was without my Harry's razor. Luckily for me, the nice gentleman at the front desk gave me a plastic, disposable razor that then promptly cut up my entire neck. By the end of the weekend, I had a full neck beard because I refused to use that razor again.

I shave on almost a daily basis to make sure I look my best on camera for my wife, and so I don't give rug burn to my children when I hug them. I've been using Harry's razors for over 5 years now. I never have to worry about refill cartridges they show up right at the front door, or I can buy them at many different locations. And the handle is heavy, sleek, and beautiful. Nothing excites me quite like getting a new Harry's Razor handle. I also used their shaving cream and some of their skin products. I swear by this Razor, I've been using Harry's for a long time, I've even gotten some friends and family members to use their subscription service,

and I have not heard a complaint yet. A good, clean makes you feel great and you know your partner's gonna be excited when you're on fleek with that tight chisel jawline accented by a good clean shave. So get your best shave ever. This summer with Harry's Razor and Skincare products, you can get a $13 starter set for just $3 at harries.com slash TCB. That's harries.com slash TCB for a starter set. Do yourself a favor, get a good clean shave

with a great razor from harries.com slash TCB. I found Adam the liar. Has changed his persona yet again. So for those just joining the show, Adam Lyons is a pretty representative, he's a representative figure of what goes on on the internet quite often that I've noticed, especially with people who have been around for a long time. Pickup artist, entrepreneur,

businessman, polygamist, entrepreneur, business man, polygamist, three way fucker, extraordinaire. This guy changes outfits like Taylor Swift. Honestly, he never is he the same person in two videos. And that's why we call him Adam Leyer. He also doesn't know exactly what he's talking about on any of them.

He gets horrible advice. He's a terrible pickup artist also doesn't know exactly what he's talking about on any of them. He gets horrible advice. He's a terrible pickup artist. I don't know what he's entrepreneuring. I don't know. You can't stick with one thing for five minutes. So how would you fucking know? But the guy is like, he just is an all-around YouTube talker. That's all he does.

He just talks. It sounds like a professional. Gets hundreds of thousands of views and I can only assume he's making a lot of money on YouTube. And who's listening to this guy? I don't fucking know. You know what he's listening to him? Brian Green, that's listening to him.

Wait, he's the one that has the accent. Brian, he's a pretty guy. He's not the one that lives in Brazil. That is Johnny Anthony, like. John Anthony Lifestyle. I have to say this. I know you're gonna like probably flip your fucking head right now. So I'm watching Adam Liger and I'm watching Johnny Anthony videos.

Johnny Anthony does yet another breakdown video of Adam Lines. And Adam shows up on up. He's so jealous. I know he is. He can't stand it that Adam is out there doing stuff that I think John really wants to be doing. Like, showing up on some podcast that is apparently very popular. I'm not gonna give the name because I've never heard of them. And based on the content that I

saw of the show, I wouldn't be interested in listening to them. But apparently they do get quite quite a few listeners. Unlike the commercial break. Yeah, he was on that one show that we love. I TV. He was. He was on I TV morning show because he'd become a polygamist and he had two girlfriends, one of which was pregnant, but I digress. So John is doing this breakdown video of Adam at this other podcast with a couple of other pickup artists. And he's breaking down what all of these people are saying. And I found myself like five minutes into this video

completely agreeing with John Anthony. Yeah. Completely agreeing with him. Like not even a little bit agreeing with him, all the way agreeing with him. It's like John Anthony is so tone deaf, he doesn't understand that if he was in the same room, he'd be saying the same things.

But when he's critiquing, I guess it takes one to know one kind of thing. When he's critiquing them, I agree with him because it's pretty on the nose. He gets to. Yeah, no, we did that before where he was critiquing Adam. And yeah, we were agreeing with him half the time, but at the same time John Anthony is

Giving horrible advice as well John Anthony is giving the exact same fucking advice in a different way. He's giving the exact same advice salating women at concerts Knapping them. Yeah, you Skin every his Brazilian hot. Brazil. Brazil. He just calls Brazil.

He just calls Brazil. Yeah, to get to his hair as big as that's right. He is the ultimate asset. Yeah. But when he's critiquing other assets, he's really good. Yeah, it's kind of good at

critiquing assets. He's kind of good at identifying the bullshit because he knows it because he does it on a daily basis with other people So anyway, John Animalire is back and now he's gonna share with us why 500,000 businesses fail every single year That number sounds completely made up to me, but I make up numbers all the time. So I'm gonna roll with it just for a minute

I don't want to throw stones in a glass. That's it. All right. So without further ado, let's take a listen to what John Adam has to say about businesses and why they fail. I'll read what's on the screen right now. Why 500 businesses? I'm not a kid. I'm not a kid.

Businesses, correct you did. Okay. Why 500K businesses collapse every year and how not to be one of them, feet, Adam Lyons, feet. And then he's got the little settings. Yeah, he's got the settings graphic because what?

People go crazy with those graphics and I don't understand it, but I'm also guilty of this. You'll know the difference between a Morgan edited YouTube video and a Brian edited YouTube video. Brian uses multi-colored transitions every single time he has to put something in there and these weird graphics Morgan actually edits the

video. All right, listen to what Adam has to say. Adam Lions. I'm a coach for scalable with brand-fized and a coach for bone of phrasia with the epic coach Adam Lions. Founder and CEO of global corporate holdings. founder and CEO of Global Corporate Holdings. I'm here. No, Global Corporate Holdings. Corporate Investment Holdings Commercial Real Estate Business LLC. How can I help you?

Yeah, I'm just making sure I got a hold of the right place. Is this CDSGWCTY LLC? That's right, corporate global holdings worldwide, incorporated businesses LLC. How can I help you? I was just wondering what you do. I just saw a video from a guy named Adam and I was wondering what you do.

What you need us to do, sir. I was thinking about holding my corporates. Yes, we can hold your corporates for you. We actually have a subsidiary called Global Corporate Holdings. Oh, that's perfect. I just need someone to hold my corporates. That's great.

Let me connect you with the Global Corporates. Hold on one second. Ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha. Global Corporate Holdings, how can I help you? Are you the same lady that I just talked to? Yes, but I'm also the CEO of Global Corporate Holdings. how can I help you? Are you the same lady that I just talked to? Yes, but I'm also the CEO of Global Corporate Holdings.

How can I help you? This lady. This guy. Wait, and I also would like to break down what his t-shirt says. I have come here to chew bubble gum, something and kick ass. Yeah.

Well, that's what I see. That's what that's what a CEO. Mark Zuckerberg wears that. I guarantee it. Program on how to buy businesses to zero dollars out of pocket. And I'm here today at Digital Marta to talk to you about the reason over 500,000 businesses. I am a digital marketer. You need many search engine optimizations and some paper clicks. You can be a digital marketer. Make thousands of dollars a day for no work whatsoever. And I

can tell you how to get started today for zero dollars if you pay me $1,999 a month for three years. I'm just laughing because we come from the digital world. We do, that's right. Hi, do you need any SEOs today? I've got lots of SEOs. Oh, back in the gold rush days when you could actually do SEOs. Now it's all chatty GPC or whatever the fuck.

Says, collapse. Every single year in America alone and something you can do to stop that happening to you Because while you might be interested in marketing and learning how to use that to grow the company Have you really thought about where the budget is gonna come from to pay for all the ads and marketing that you need? I'm going to explain this from your grandmother Can I say something about I'm looking at Adam right now, and can I say something about men's beards? Yes. Okay, you're either a neckbeard guy

or you're not a neckbeard guy. It's just one of those things. But when you're a neckbeard guy, don't you usually have some like fluff? It's not a five o'clock shadow and then you bring the neckbeard down halfway around your neck. I agree.

Do you see this when I'm talking about? Why would you put your, why would you shave only half of your neck? He hasn't gone into a V down under your neck. Do you see this while I'm talking about? Why would you put your, why would you shave only half of your neck? He hasn't gone into a V down under a neck. You have to see this. It's the weirdest thing. I've never seen it. Look at my beard. I shave it up high in tights or fits my jawline.

Now Adam may not have a jawline. I don't know, but that's weird to just shave it halfway like that. In a V. Yeah. Harries.com slash TCP go there. You can't create this. I can't go there. You're gonna create this kind of racers. But only while lots of these businesses fail,

but how you can structure your business to stop this. It literally makes his face look like it's running down his neck. There's like a broken egg yolk. His whole face looks like a broken egg yolk. Everything to you. Now, there are many cool, fun things that you may want to learn when it comes to running your business. Like, how to generate more leads, how to make more sales.

What's the best web flow or the best user experience meets web flow? I'm here to teach you web flow. Watch all that money come flowing into your account and then flowing back out to my account as you pay me for my expertise in web flows. And holdings. I just, I can see this word becoming a new buzz word. Make a million dollars a month from home, doing web flows.

Web flow. What a flow. That's exciting. Google click link. I've been doing it for a long time. I can guarantee you, I don't have a lot of confidence that I'm like really good at anything. I think I'm mediocre at a lot of things,

but I'll tell you what I am really good at. It's finding stuff on the internet. That's what I'm really, really good at. I know how to fucking Google because I've been doing it. Since Google came on board. What a fuck is a web flow. How do you do that? What was flowing into the web? What are you talking about?

Bellop for my website, however, I can promise you that if you don't do this Almost everything else is gonna lead to stress Struggling to pay bills every single month and not having Only a listen Only you listen to web flows! The commercial break would be making money right now! I'm sorry, I didn't think about web flows. Adam told you about that.

I know, but I thought he was full of shit. No! Adam had the keys to the kingdom all along! Look how successful he is! He literally can change jobs every three days! That sounds like me, Tanja. He's the CEO of Corporate With Flow Holdings Incorporated, LLC! Growth and scale. It all comes down to how do you actually think about the way you run and structure

your business? I can almost guarantee you that the way most business owners operate until they're earning at least $5 million a year or more is to structure their business based on this is the amount of money I've received. I'm going to pay this out to pay all the bills that I have to pay and whatever money's left is the money I'm going to have to continue on. Most of these businesses sound like pretty good accounting practices. Instead, you should not pay any of those bills. Yeah, you're doing it wrong.

Pay the bills. You just make five million. That's right. Chrissy, five million comes in. You pay four million to corporate holdings LLC incorporated. Whatever's left over, whatever's left over, then you pay the bills. Don't worry about it.

It trust me, it'll all come clear. It's part of the web. Actually driven by expenses, I need to hire more people, I need to learn more things or pay for more software. And all of those expenses mean you have to make more sales in order to catch up. And this is the essence of a cash flow business. Every single time you're essentially paying out to make sure that you can survive for another

month. It creates stress, it creates drama, but more. It creates a business. That's what it does. It's called a budget. It's called a, you know, a P&L, but whatever you want to call it, I don't know what the fancy terms are. I'm not a CFO of anything.

It's stressful to pay bills, but if you want to grow and do anything with a business, you have to have expenses. Yes, but I will say this, he is right about one thing, is that 90% of businesses that fail because they can't manage the cash flow during a growth phase.

Right. And so we understand this here at the commercial break. We just made... We can't manage the cash flow during a growth phase. Right. And so we understand this here at the commercial break. We just made... We can't manage cash flow because there is no actually flowing cash. So therefore we can't manage the growth phase because there actually is no growth either. So there's no growth and there's no flow.

Morgan and Christina just hang on. Hang on, hang tight. Swear to God. Just go with that. Another basket robins gift card coming your way. But use them quick, they expire in a couple of days. And, importantly, you're not actually structured in a way to be able to bring on investors. You're not structured in a way to be able to have healthy partnerships, and you're definitely not structured in a way to be able to sell and get the maximum value for your company

at some point in the future if that's what you wanted to do. So, I'm going to break this down for you, and I'm going to talk about how to structure your company at some point in the future, if that's what you wanted to do. So I'm going to break this down for you, and I'm going to talk about how to structure your company for growth. I made this cool little pie chart here that shows you why I made this complete pie chart here, that I'm completely out of my brain. He's got a hand drawn pie chart on a whiteboard. It says, staff 16.67.

What cost 16.67? Profit 16.67 what cost 16.67 profit 16.67 then split that spend 50% of your money on marketing. Yeah, with Adam. With Adam. That's right. Of course you got to learn web flows. You don't have web flows. What are you going to do? Without web flows, you're dead in the water. So I need 50% of your revenue to make web flows. Listen, I'm all about this. I think you got to market your business. I really do. I believe in a 50% seems like a little seems a little hot. I think 25 to 30% is like at the top end of what most businesses would spend. I think 25% is a 20 to 25% is a healthy budget and that's what most having been around this this earth a couple of days, 20 to 25% is usually what most businesses

spend on marketing, especially if you're selling something, right, you're everybody selling something. So, but 50%, how are you gonna make any profit whatsoever? Well, you've gotta give it to Adam. Oh yeah, that's true. 16.7%. You're going into a tax shelter with the corporate. Oh yeah, corporate holdings, Incorporated LLC. You're a baby taxes. Who isn't?

I'm a way of doing it. Now the percentages that I've broken down here and not the percentages that I'm going to say you have to do, but these are a very, very good vague battle plan that you can use to base your percentages on. That's where we need a vague battle plan. That's what vague. It's Harry Truman. It's Harry Truman, General, and we're going to get this battle of the Bolt. Now, what's your gotten store? I got a very vague battle plan and a relatively good understanding

of what might be happening. How does that make you feel like a shit head? Don't worry. I almost think I know what I'm doing. It's vague. That's right. But it's vague. It's not come quite into picture. I got this lady Theresa Caputo coming in to tell us what the real battle plan is.

Last thing I do when I work with a company is I get them to look at the amount of gross revenue coming in and I recommend that they put between 45% or 50% aside for ads and marketing. Almost, no wonder you're gonna fail. You cannot put 50% of your gross revenue. What? Depending on how your structure taxes are gonna be 26% of your gross revenue. You mean net revenue or gross revenue? What are you talking about?

He said, grab. I know. Cessable company will have about 50% put aside in order to help grow the company. Think about it. If for every $100 you receive, you spend $50 to gain two more sales of $100, now you've got $200 and so on and so forth, it essentially just continues to build and build and grow. It's magical, man!

That's it! That's how it works, Adam. You build an ROI model. You find out what a lifetime value of a customer is concerned. Yes, what's the price? Yes, that's right. What's the sale? Per sale.

And then you know what you do. You take that number. Let's say it's $20 is the lifetime value of a customer. And that's what I need. And that's what I need to get less than that to make money, right? Obviously, if I'm spending $20 or if I get $20 from a customer, I need to spend less than that to make money, right? Obviously, if I'm spending $20 or if I get $20 from a customer, I need to spend less than $20 to make money on that customer. So that's actually how you start building your ROI program,

not just randomly throwing numbers at a wall and hoping it sticks. Let's say you get a hundred customers in the door and each of those customers spends it all. Now you've got $10,000. It's magical, Matt. You just go to your calculator got $10,000. It's magical, man. You just go to your calculator and you go, times 10. It's amazing. It's a web flow. Now, let's put a web flow calendar on your website. I'll charge you $20.

And that is almost always the key to having a successful business. But most companies never put enough aside for ads and marketing. And by the way, if you're thinking that 50% just sound like me trying to convince Astrid in the early days of the commercial break. If we spend $10,000 we don't have to get 10 new listeners will probably never stay around. We'll make a million dollars. Too much. What we have to do is ask yourself, what is the retail markup that is seen in almost any brick and mortar store anywhere in the world? Or what are the most common types of affiliates split?

Almost always, you're gonna see that these numbers- Oh, don't give me a start up affiliate marketing. Ah, no. Between 45 and 55%, which is essentially that 50% that should be put aside for ads and marketing. That leaves me with 50% of my gross revenue to run the rest of the company. Ideally, I wanna be breaking that into three for the buckets

or 16.67% of the whole. I want one third. That's lucky. I don't know how wrong this could be, but it couldn't possibly be any more wrong. And I am no business genius. Yeah, you're going to cut the whole thing, the whole pie and half.

It's half that's going to mark me. Then you're going to do a tiny little sliver for staff. For staff, 60. For that. Okay, let's just take, let's just, let's pretend that we have an actual business here at the commercial break that makes money. We get $100,000 every 10 years

for what we do here at the commercial break. We take 50 of it and we put back in marketing and now we have $16,000 to hire and keep our staff around that includes ourselves. Do you see how this quickly becomes a losing proposition? How am I supposed to manage growth if there's no one here to grow the business? This is so oversimplified and a dumb dumb thing to think about.

It's dumb. Okay, before you spend $9.99 a month on Adam Lier's bullshit business course, that he obviously doesn't know what he's talking about. Call the commercial. Give us $5 for Patreon and I'll do a business course. To be for my staff costs. You too can lose lots of money like the commercial break. Take 79% of your gross revenue and literally set it on fire.

That leaves you with 21% to do whatever you like with. Split that in half. Use it for marketing. Split that in half. Use it for your dog food. Just with that in half. Your electric bill. Split that in half. Your buy and roses for your baby baby and then you can hire a

CFO that'll make you cream in your pants. Good CFOs these days cost around me I don't know $3 a year. That would be under shape. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha By the way, all math is in Venezuela and Bolivarays. Ha ha ha ha ha Another third to be for my actual cost for things like software or any other

Technical things I might need like a CRM or email delivery software. Which cost money? Which cost real money. Which cause real money. How is it? It's fucking roadcasters. I'm still paying off this roadcaster. That's not gonna fit in the 16th place. For the same category, I guarantee you. Ah.

Ah. Final third on my profits. Now, you may have heard of the concept of taking profits off of the growth of a business from a really good book called Profit First, but not only is this a general good practice to do, it's one of the only ways you should structure your business to ensure that you grow and succeed. Now, I can always guarantee you...

If you take 20% of your gross revenue and split those profits before you pay anything else, you are a dumb fucking dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb. I don't get this. I don't get where he's getting this information from. How do you just throw numbers up like that and just pretend like, I mean, now and then he's calling it a third, but it's not a third. It's a third of 50 percent, I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that.

I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that.

I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that.

I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm gonna have to do that. I'm not gonna have enough capital to be able to run my business. Correct! Correct! 50% of every single penny that I've got aside for ads and marketing, what am I gonna live on? And this here comes to the rub of why so many businesses do fail every single year. The reality is, you're probably not earning enough to actually self-sustained. Which for- Oh, that's the key.

You don't say! I hadn't thought about that. You mean I'm actually not making enough money? All you gotta do is build some additional web flows and you're going to be a millionaire in no time. Make sure you take your first million right off the top into your pocket. That'll help you get over that growth. Tom, dumb. What a dumb dumb. It's me to one of the biggest points I'm always talking to business owners about, which is have you covered your bread and butter?

No, bread and butter. No, I don't have the money for bread and butter. No. I can't eat. I don't have anybody left. I can't eat neither could my employees. I'm using everything to spend money on marketing on a business that sucks in the first place

when I was younger. And it's probably one of the best things I've ever learned when it comes to running a business. Ultimately, you've got basic bills that you have to pay or as my stepdad would say, there's the bread and butter that you need to put on the table every single day to make sure everything's okay. As long as your bread and butter is covered, then you're gonna have enough money to do everything else that you want to do with anything beyond that.

It makes sense if... It does not make sense. What? You've got a successful business! Ffff. Go buy a honey loaf of bread and some Irish butter put it on the table You're a millionaire. I'm out of the lia. Why would I steer you wrong? I wouldn't because I know everything My god, I will get back to it because there's lots more to cover. I'm already finding so much joy in this video

Because it's like he's tracking the commercial break and our mathematics. This is what failing businesses do, not what successful businesses do. I think he got the title of the video wrong. It should have been, you know, how I actually tanked 500,000 businesses 10,000, 20,000.

I love it. I love that this I love it. This is still like some of the crazy math he was using to apply to women. Never, I mean. Yes, he was doing this with women. He was doing it with Instagram. He was doing it with, I don't know.

Polygamy, I mean, this guy is just one of a kind. He is. You got to give the guy credit for reinventing himself. He keeps people interested because he keeps doing new things. I don't hate that. I love that. I think it's great that you reinvent yourself. I've done it a lot.

I'm reinventing myself right now. You have to give good advice. You do have to give good advice. And you actually have to make money. If you have a business that has zero dollars in revenue or negative dollars in revenue, you're never gonna make this work. You already have to be cash flush

in order to make this math work, but maybe he's gonna tell us something that we don't know quite yet. You did mention investors. Yeah, well yeah, but then... Nothing like break. Like this, yeah. This is something I know a lot about, and investors end up being a loose around your neck. Cause I call you every 15 fucking seconds and ask you,

how's the commercial breaks? It's going great, but that's not what it's called. 15 fucking seconds and ask you how's the commercial breaks It's going great, but that's not what it's called. I don't care what it's called. I want my money back I'm kidding the commercial break doesn't have any investors who an invest in this Nobody want to do what dumb dumb would invest in this nobody nobody even wanted to invest five dollars in patreon No, but you know what you can do but I don't care I'm turning the other cheek and I still love you.
