I'm officially over all of it. I know. Just get me to the voting booth. Let me do my duty as an American citizen and let World War III begin. Oh, hey. And let World War III begin. That's it. That's all I got to say. I know. I'm so over in chat tech to do that last night.

I was like, I can't. What a nightmare. All around us. Just a nightmare. I mean, it really is pretty, it's a tense time for the entire world. It is. And thank God you got the commercial break because, quite frankly, we can't talk about serious stuff because we will get all the facts wrong.

I will become a disinformation machine immediately. And I don't want to do that. As heard on TCB Podcast. As heard on TCB Minus, which is going to be the name of our tour when we get back on the road, when we actually get on the road. Right. Oh Lord, we are here in the TCB studios. For you, this may be a couple days later because we're about to take a whole shitload of time off

But we'll keep the fresh episodes coming as long as we can I guess As long as we can there might be a few best-ofs in there And you know listen I know it's not your favorite to hear a rerun But for some people that might be the first time they ever hear it exactly because they might be new to the show wondering what all the kerfuffle is about So just bear with us through the month of October. We'll all get through it together. I promise. Christy is going to go down and do Mempho. So actually this is going to, this will be airing I think the

Who else? I'm sorry, I forgot.

Diggable Planets, The Roots. Ah, yeah, The Roots, wow. Trey, Anastasia, Goose. Okay, I imagine a Goose and Trey stage time together is possible. Well, they're playing on different nights. I still say it's possible. I think it's happened once before if I'm not mistaken. I think I saw that somewhere on the Fish page or something like that.

I follow the Fish page, although I find some of it. I love Fish. I think Fish is a great band. I really do. I love them. And I've been to a lot of live shows. But when I turned like 40, I was like, wow. I don't know that heroin and balloons are my thing anymore. It's so obvious. Plus you have 30 kids.

Plus I have 30 children. That's right. I started having 30 children right about when I turned 40. But anyway, so there you go, memphofest.com starting today. So go get it. Yeah, it's a good weather too, which God damn. Let's go through the parade of terribles

that's going on right now. First of all. Last weekend, yeah, this, well, I guess it would be two weekends before now, right? Yeah, two weekends before now. Yeah, horrible. We haven't talked about it, but. Horrible storm, horrible storm.

People up in the Asheville area and the Carolinas really got hit. It is unfolding, I think, in real time for everybody that North Carolina is a complete disaster zone. The entire state, eastern Tennessee, northern South Carolina, I have family that live there in like that Clemson area. They avoided the worst of it, but it still was not great there. Greenville got hit. Greenville got hit. Augusta, Georgia got hit. Anywhere south and east of I-75, if you know what I'm talking about. I mean, it was just a huge storm. It went, it covered so much area.

Yeah, it was just a haymaker. That's what it was. And now people are missing and people are dead and livelihoods are gone and complete towns are washed out. Asheville may never be the same again. And I like Asheville. Astrid and I's very first, I say our second date was in Asheville. And I love it. It's a beautiful town. I spent a lot of time in Eastern Tennessee and that Asheville area in the Blue Ridge Mountains and that Blue Ridge, riding up and down that Blue Ridge Highway. Yeah. And I'm just so sad about all of it because, and I have so many friends that live up there, have lived up there, have friends up there, you know, the whole party in the woods scene. There's a lot of people up in those Blue Ridge Mountains, in Chimney Rock, and Asheville, and all those areas up there, and it's complete

devastation. Actually, this isn't funny at all, but one of our friends on Facebook for days was like, my daughter and her boyfriend, for what reason I don't understand because that wasn't told in the story, but let's assume that it was, they were there on an extended stay, were in an Airbnb in Chimney Rock and they could not get a hold of them for days making pleas on Facebook and Instagram and people were, you know, call this guy, this person might be able to trek up the hill, this dude is in the area, you know, this girl. They haven't had power, self-service, or any of that, yeah. None of it.

And so finally, a helicopter was, they put like a GoFundMe page together to get a helicopter up there. And somebody here in Atlanta said, I'll fly the helicopter, and they were found. But that's the like, the level of devastation is that you can't make a phone call. You don't have any water. You don't have any power. Your house might be completely gone. I have friends

that own a campground. They're gone. Every bit of it is gone. It's a huge campground sitting near a creek, a fucking creek, and everything is gone. Everything. The creek rose to like, it was like a quarter mile wide at one point. It's insane. And Asheville is one of those places where you think, well, I mean, let's be honest. It's the mountains. It's the mountains and it's a bunch of hippies up there, like, trying to save the planet. I mean, and it's just one of those places you would never think that that kind of devastation would come to. First of all, because the mountains often dissipate any really intense weather like that.

And second of all, because the elevation. But that was not true. When you get 29 inches of rain in 70 hours, there's nothing you can do. And you're in the mountains with all those creeks and rivers and the water just keeps coming down the mountain. There's nothing you can do. So, my heart goes out to all of those folks. And I just, if there's anything that we can do, I don't even know. You probably haven't even heard this. You probably don't even have internet. Well, they have Starlink. Listen, I don't care for Elon Musk. I've made my views clear here. I don't care for him. But I do have to say that that Starlink has become a godsend to a lot of people. And so, I don't care what his politics are right now. I would say that that has been a small ray of sunshine in the Elon

Musk story is that he has done some good in this particular situation by providing free star length to anybody up in that area so that at least they can get a text message to family members or somebody saying, hey, I'm alive or I need food or come get me or whatever it is. So our love goes out to those people who are affected just right up the hill from us. And if there's anything that we can do, you can certainly reach out and we'll try our best. Or if you need us to say something,

or I don't know, you have some GoFundMe, you want us to announce, we will be happy to do that. So just reach out to us, 212-433-33-TCB. And then going down the list of terribles, Peefuckin' Diddy, this story keeps on getting more and more terrible. As if it was- Well, I knew we were just at the tip of terribles. P. fucking Diddy. This story keeps on getting more and more terrible as if it was- Well, I knew we were just at the tip of the iceberg. Someone is shopping a pornographic video of P. Diddy with a more famous person involved,

quote unquote. A more famous person than P. Diddy, a more famous person than T. P. Diddy. And now I saw that story. Holy shit, who not? I'll tell you who not, P. Diddy right now. That guy is in some fucking trouble. The mighty of Holland. Ah, yeah. He should be. I mean, he should be held accountable for every bit of it. Oh, yeah. Oh, don't ever get out of jail. I mean, just rot. Just go ahead and... If I was him, and half of this stuff was true, I would honestly go to the government and I say, I want to make my amends, I know I'm never going anywhere, do me a favor and at least don't put me in solitary confinement for the rest of my life and I will do what I need to do.

I'll pay the victims, I'll spill the beans, whatever. I mean, he's in a tough situation, but he has apparently hurt a lot of people and now they are coming for their pound of flesh. And that is crazy, including children. I mean, that's just insane. That is kind of, you know, I don't believe in conspiracy theories, but you hear this shit and you're like, well, you know, I don't know, you know, about these elites and, you know, these big sex rings and all that. And then you go to yourself, wow, you know, this was, this is big, 120 new accusers supposedly filing lawsuits in the next couple of days, which is just insane. And now the federal government has

at least alluded to the fact that many of these victims who are going to sue P. Diddy are also coming forward to talk to the government. And so, he will never get out of jail if half of this stuff is true. I don't think, I mean, unless he's got like a really fantastic, this guy needs Atticus Finch is who he needs basically to defend him. I mean, honestly, this is- Danielle Pletka I don't think Atticus Finch would defend him. Jared Svelter No, no, no, I don't think so. But you know what I'm saying. He needs F. Lee Bailey or somebody like that. Remember F. Lee Bailey? Danielle Pletka I do.

Jared Svelter The guy from the OJJ trial and then what else did he do? Didn't he, was any part of the, was he involved in the Manson case in some way, shape or form? I think so. Didn't he like prosecute, oh no, that was, or was that Giuliani? Well, no. Giuliani did the mob. I think it was F. Lee Bailey that at one point prosecuted Manson and Manson jumped out the back of the court window, like he went to go to the bathroom and he jumped out of the court window, he was gone for like three months, no one could find him. You didn't know that part of the story? Yeah.

Which, oh no, not Manson, I'm sorry, Ted Bundy. Ted Bundy. Yeah, Ted Bundy was at court one time and he like said, can I go to the bathroom? And they were like, sure. And he was such a apparently nice guy that everyone was like, yeah, no problem. He's like, I'll be right back. And he jumped out the window and fled for like, three months. It was insane. So yeah, so this Pete Diddy story just keeps on getting curiouser and curiouser and I can't stop reading about it. I'm like, oh my God. And then all these pictures of him with these celebrities look worse and worse.

Oh yeah. The more that you see it, the more that you look into it, it looks worse and worse. It's like my pool right now. Every day I wake up and it looks a little bit more murky. You know what I'm saying? Chrissy. Jared... Do you put a cover on it? Chris... No, I can't put a cover on it. Jared... Yeah, it's huge. Chris... Well, it's also very dangerous to put a cover on it.

Jared... Oh, okay. Chris... Yeah, it's dangerous, it's huge, and then you just, you open it up to a big problem that then you have to fix because you can keep the pool running even with a cover on it, but you can't put any chemicals in it, you can't clean it, you can't do any of that stuff. Oh, I don't know the ins and outs of all this. Yeah. So you can close the pool. I think you, I don't know because I'm not really good at this actually, but I believe you just shock the shit out of it and just make the chlorine

levels super high for the winter, I believe. and then you try and manage it back down when you're going swimming. But also, the pool's huge. It would take a lot of cover to cover it. And third of all, it's just dangerous. Like if someone falls in, if the dog walks on it, and then it's just a whole nightmare. I mean, they have safety covers. Plus, I'm thinking about what you would uncover when you uncovered it. Oh my God, a frog pond, like it is right now. There were three fucking frights. It was fine until the storm came, and the storm here was nothing. It was a spritz. I mean, it rained a lot, and there was some trouble downtown with some, you know, some of the creeks

and rivers and stuff like that. But I think for the most part, we got out unscathed. People who got flooded here had their house on stilts because it's been flooding there for a long time. I mean, most of them anyway. I don't want to minimize the damage, but you get what I'm saying is that it wasn't necessarily unexpected that those areas would flood because they're in floodplains. We did not get it. Like, Asheville got it, say that. But after it rained, I had it all fucking fixed. And then after it rained, day after day, I would look out there and I'd go, is that, is it turning up? I'm colorblind too, so I'm like, is that, I got a little twinge of,

is that a little greenish, a little marquee? And this morning I woke up and it was a straight up frog pond. So two days ago, it was green, like everything was green, algae all over the side of the walls. And I'm like, what the fuck, what happened? And I go in there and Gustavo was here. And I'm out, Gustavo, Gustavo. I go out there and I start, you know, cleaning up some of the leaves and stuff. And then I'm trying to get some of the algae off the side of the walls. And every time

that I go down to pick up another pile of leaves off the bottom of the pool, another frog jumps out. And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? And I mean, jumps out. I mean, like jumps off the bottom of the pool, another frog jumps out. And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? And then he jumps out, I mean, like jumps off the bottom of the pool and is now swimming in the pool. So me and Gustavo, and the frogs don't know how to get out of the pool. Once they're in there, they don't know how to get out of the pool. So me and Gustavo are playing frog rescue, throwing the frogs out, like, you know, trying to like scoop them up with our hand and throw them out of the pool. And they just bounce back in. It's a whole fucking thing going on. I noticed a bunch. I saw a huge grasshopper on my fence the other day. And then also too,

like just yesterday running around town that there were these grasshoppers all over the place. Yeah, you know, probably because they, the storm, yeah. the storm comes and it soaks the ground, the ants, their mounds get disturbed and roaches fall off the trees. I know, it's like a whole thing. Yeah, when there comes a lot of rain, in Chicago where I used to live, you know what used to happen when it rained a lot

is the earthworms would come out in bundles. I mean, they would just all be like, and it was, if you went after a storm, you went into your like backyard, nice green grass, all you'd see is just earthworms crawling out of it. It was kind of creepy. I never like, I love the rain, but I never wanted to go in my grass right after a storm because the earthworms creeped me out. And then forget about it. My grandpa took me fishing the one time my grandpa took me fishing. I'm like, I'm not touching that shit. Don't get that shit away from me. Stop being a big baby. I was in World War II. So I just, I don't just don't

know what to do with that pool anymore. I called professional help, you know, but of course it's $10,000 to clean your pool. When it looks like that, it's $10,000. So I'm talking to the pool guy the other day, like Bubba from the pool company, Bubba's cool pool company, because they're also all very busy. So I had to call 30 different pool companies until someone called me back. And the guy calls me this morning, he's like, I'll be out there tomorrow. He said, you sent me a couple of pictures of your pool, man, that pool's out of whack. And I go, yes, it is. He goes, how long did it take you to get that green? And I go, well, about a week, about a week. And I said a week and he goes, a week? And I go, a week. And he goes, man, you've been, you've been missing with those chemicals in ways I don't understand. I was going to say all your hard work of going to...

Hard work, thousands of dollars worth of pool chemicals. Thousands of dollars in back, your back issues. Yeah. Jesus Christ. The back issues, the calcium running through my brain. So I'm like, so I'm like, yeah, but you can help me, right? And he's like, well, I'm going to tell you something. And I know this is true because I've heard other pool companies say it to me. He goes, well, I'm going to tell you something now, brother. I do great job cleaning the pool. I come out every week and I'll be happy to do that, but you need a green to clean

service, which I do, but it's very expensive. This would be about $400 every time I come out. It could take me four times to get it right. And I was like $1,600600 to clean my pool to make the water clear? I've already spent $4,000 on chemicals. It's not doing shit. And he's like, that's the problem is you got to, you got to take a little this way, tickle its balls this way and tickle its balls that way and then rub the shaft a little bit and get it to jizz. And I'm like, okay, I get it. Yeah. 10-4. He goes, take that pool water up to the pool plate, get them to test it. And then what you need to do is get some green

to clean. It's about $58 a bottle, get you about 10 bottles of that. And then you need about, he got this, what he said, you need about 40 pounds of shock. And I'm like, 40 pounds of shock. No, I put 40 pounds of salt in there. Well, no, I put 200,000 pounds of salt in there. I thought there were so many bags of salt. So I'm like, really? And he's like, yeah, just go there. They'll tell you how to use it and everything. You got the whole thing and you got to do it.

But you're going to save yourself probably about $700, $800 on me. He goes, because I'm just going to do the same thing. And I was like, okay, all right. Well, I appreciate you being honest. At this point, are you just like, fuck it. I'll deal with it. Honestly. Yeah, honestly, with all the drama that's going on.

But I can't stand, I'm just too OCD to look out there and see that green pool. I got the pool and my, like you open these two big, huge windows in my bedroom and all you can see is that fucking green pool with the frogs swimming in it. And I swear to God, they're swimming in it. It's like a field day for them. They love it. It's perfect. It's perfect pH balanced for the frogs. They're eating the algae off the walls and having a field

day. So I go, I go up to the pool place again, you know, and they're looking at me like, dude, you've been in here like six times with your pool water, trying to get this right. And I'm like, it just, I don't know what's going on. So this guy, like, Well, the storm too, probably. Yeah, the storm too, probably. Cause you said your pool was overflowing. It was overflowing and it was overflowing for hours. And that, you know, you can put all the salt you want

in a pool if you keep on refreshing it with fresh water, it's gonna get fucked up. And then you put leaves in it and that's, you know, organic matter. So it's just like having people swim in it. That's also organic matter. That's why you have to put chlorine in it occasionally to get the organic matter to die, skin cells and hair and all that

other stuff. Anywho, so I say, I go, hey, listen, you have to get your children to die, you got to throw a bunch of chemicals in there. So anyway, I say, hey, here's my pool water. The guy goes, all right, well, it says the same thing. You need green to clean and a bunch of shock, like a box of shock, 12 bags of shock. And I'm like, okay, okay all right what's the damage doc and he's like I'm about four hundred and six okay whatever let's just get this I don't have four hundred sixty dollars I'm putting on discover card is gonna cut me off pretty soon so I'm like okay let me just swipe it there I'm no I have a discover card I probably owe $70,000 and it's all I only buy stuff at the pool store the discover at least I'm getting

cash back thanks exactly so yes I get, the Discover card. At least I'm getting cash back, thanks, Discover. Exactly. Get the cash back. So, I get all this green to clean stuff, and I'm out there with the broom, dusting up all the algae. Chrissy, that pool is a hot fucking mess. And if this doesn't work, if this doesn't work, I am going to pay the guy the $1,600. We're going to have to do, fucking additional episodes of the show. To pay for it.

Yeah, to pay for it. But I swear to God, because I can't deal with it anymore. I don't know what I did. I don't know what happened. Maybe some of the pool equipment's broken or something. Maybe that's the part. That's all about it. Oh God, you're going to drive yourself crazy. Oh, well, I'm just going to let Bubba deal with it. I'm just going to be like, Bubba, fix it. I think that's probably best. I don't care what it costs anymore. I don't give costs anymore. I'm one of those guys that when I'm in over my head, I like to pay people to fix the problem. Do you know what I'm saying? I'm not

one of those trying to fix it myself. I'm not that smart. Go to the profession. Yeah, I quit taxes. Don't get the guy who is half retired and 79 years old. Get the people who are actively involved in actually doing taxesing. A little lesson from Chrissy and Brian to you out there, studio audience. PSA. A little PSA for you. Speaking of PSA, I have, so since we're going to take some time off, I found a video. Remember Zahn, the guy Zahn, the poire that we did, who he was like the most depressing to be by in history.

He had all his books in Turkey or something, or where was he living? He was in Switzerland or Sweden or Amsterdam or something. I thought it was like Algeria or... Oh yeah, maybe it was. Maybe Turk-Turkic-Mekistan or something, or Bekistan. One of those countries over there. He was living there and Romania. Romania, yes. He had a whole apartment full of books that he never sold. He was gonna give them away for free.

He's like, worst mistake I ever made. Spent 10 years writing this book and didn't sell one copy. Anyway, Zahn actually is given a more recent, had a more recent appearance at the 21 Convention, which we just love because the mining content there is like easy, you just pick any video and go through it. So our favorite Pua, Zahn is back and we'll go through it, but I think this might be a good one.

And maybe this is a multi-episode one for you and the folks out for you, the one listening and the other folks in your car listening. People in your office or at your warehouse. Thank you, listener. Yeah, thank you, listener. And we'll go through it and we'll see how everything goes, but maybe we'll go all the way through his little presentation and see what he's got to say about his brand new book,

10 Ways to Be an Alpha Male. I wonder if he did it all researched it during the pandemic. Oh yeah. Well, I mean, he's such a great author. His last book did such huge numbers. Why not? All right. We'll be back. Call me, beat me if you want to reach me at 212-433-3TCB. If you have any comments, questions, compliments or content ideas, that's 212-433-3822.

Zahn is at the 21 conference. I think this is about a year ago, the last 21 conference there has been because of course they didn't continue in 2020. Though there was a shakeup. There was a big shakeup, big financial trouble over at the 2021 convention. And yeah, the leader.

Yeah. Apparently the Motel 6 that they were doing that was owed some money and they couldn't get it going again. So there you go. But here's the Premier Men's Conference 2021 convention and here's our old buddy Zahn. He's going to give a presentation. We'll listen through it. Welcome back to the 21 convention, 2022 of Orlando, Florida, celebrating 16 years of 21 studios and the 21 convention. Oh, it says 2022, but then the video says 2023. So I don't know.

Live events being held at 21 summit, super duper triple event. And our next super duper triple event. I think that's the leader, the guy that's talking right now on stage. Oh, is it? Is it the guy? I think he's the one that sank the whole... Sank the whole... Sank the whole...

Sank the whole men's conference business in central Florida. Yeah. Speaker is actually an alumni, a returning speaker to the 21 convention, first speaking in 2006. I mean, if you're not, if the, you know, elite alumni of the 21 convention is Zahn, the guy who couldn't sell any books, you're really scraping the bottom. Yeah. Seen at our event in Miami, Florida, and again at our 10-year anniversary in 2017. There's a returning speaker from those events. he's also the founder of Ars Amorata.

And the- Well, this guy- Ars Amorata? Ars Amorata, which in Romania is just a huge hit with all the... One time we did that mail order brides in Romania. Oh, yeah. I was thinking about that thing for days after we watched that. Listen, we got so many people that contacted us, including my father. My father listened to that episode

and he was like, oh, does that really happen? I said, yeah, I think a couple of your sons could use that. They all are in the service. Through the alabaster girl. I think above and beyond that though, he is a legend in the Manosphere. He is a godfather of the Manosphere more specifically. The Manosphere, he's a godfather of the Manosphere, more specifically. The Manosphere god. Oh, come on. Zahn's a godfather of a Manosphere? Which Manosphere is he godfather of? I don't see any fiefdom. By the way, let me go off on this for a minute. I started watching that Aaron Hernandez, remember Aaron Hernandez, the football player?

I do, and I've almost watched that a couple of times. Oh, get on it. Get on it. Get on it. It's another cheesy, campy, you know, retelling of events, but there's 10 episodes. They've only released four of the episodes and I haven't watched the fourth one yet because it just came out this morning. But I do have to say, I'm invested in this story now. Yeah. And Aaron Hernandez was apparently closeted and that may have led to some of his troubles. And, you know, I got, yeah, P, P Diddy and Aaron Hernandez, you just be who you are.

Everything would have turned out okay. Jared Sussman Godfather of the seduction community, that you guys probably have heard about through all the fame and the media. Jared Sussman Dude, this guy has, Zahn coming up has the greasiest hair. I mean, listen, I don't care what you look like, and I don't wanna make fun of your looks, but if he's the godfather of the seduction community, then you don't have much to hang your hat on

because it's like Zahn mystery, that guy who's now the head of Trump Bitcoin University or whatever, and fucking Adam the liar lions. Really? Yeah. Picked up over many decades. There's a true godfather of that. He's old school. I mean, this guy has been around even longer than me and I found it in 2005 and I was still very young. I grew up.

Wow, this guy's a ball of excitement, isn't he? It's hard to believe that this conference went belly up. That guy's got big dick energy. Watching this guy, very inspired by him when I was very young, as a teenager. So I'm very proud to have him not only at our events, but back at them again for his third time. So without further ado, please let me welcome Zan Parion to the stage. Zan Parion. Zan Parion.

Okay. Welcome. Okay. Okay, alright, now let me get into it, because I've got other things to do. Why do they have those flags? You know why they have those flags. Don't ask that. That is the one on the right? Is that the Florida? It's the State of Florida flag. Yeah. Flying the Ron DeSantis flag for all people to see. And right next to the American flag in the MAGA hat.

Here we go. Get my water. Yeah, I remember this guy likes to drink a lot of water, so we'll get into it. I have no PowerPoint for you guys. He said, I have no PowerPoint? Yeah, well, that's exciting. Thanks.

Thanks for already making me go to sleep. My parathyroid is now shutting down for the rest of the afternoon. I don't even have a speech. Oh. Oh, well, great. Thanks for coming prepared. It's free-balling it. Yes. It's jumping with no parachute. I like his style. Well, of course, there's nobody in the audience anyway. Did you hear how many people were clapping?

Do you prepare for this? I wouldn't. I just feel like, listen, I've been to a lot of podcast conferences and I know what kind of crowd is going to show up. And after a while you just stop worrying about it. You're like, well, I know what I know. And I'll say some things and people will go, Ooh, wow. Exciting. Here's my advice to all new podcasters. Just press record. I'm so inspired by what you said. Yeah, I was inspired by that shit too at first. Now I'm inspired by cold hard cash. I've been talking for 20 years on stage

as Anthony was saying for 20 years. All around the world and I just, I thought what am I gonna talk about here? It's been a couple of years because of coronavirus that I did talk, but it's like, I have nothing that I have to earnestly say to you. You're gonna like this. So I'm just gonna-

This is the exact same thing he said at his last 2017 conference. Besides the coronavirus thing, he said, I'm not, I have no speech prepared. Riff on a few things I'm thinking about. And I'm curious about. I'm curious about. Oh, please riff. That I love.

He looks like an overweight Jack White. I know. Like Jack White forgot to go to the orthodontist. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. And interesting, like Anthony was saying that I've been doing this for a long time, 20 years. And there's something changing in me after all these years.

A new phase, I guess. A new flower. I'm 58 years old. Blooming in my genitalia. 58 years old doesn't work like it used to. What's up with the bolo tie? That is a bolo tie. I thought it was a necklace, but it is a bolo.

It's a bolo. It's hung low. Yeah, it's hung low. I got to say, a couple of weeks ago, my youngest, the youngest of the brood, Patrick, my brother, texted me and it was like, I don't know, 830 on a Saturday night or something. He says, Hey, Brian, whatever. Do you remember your bolo phase? And I was like, what the fuck

are you talking about? And he goes from like fourth grade to like ninth grade, you were into Bolo's. Do you remember that? And I was like, I do remember that actually. I think it was more like third grade, so 12th grade. But yes, I remember. I like your Bolo. He's like, do you have any pictures of you in a Bolo? And I'm like, I'm sure I do somewhere. But I went through a Bolo phase. It was. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. But now I'd realized the error of my ways. And by 58, I would hope that's onward also. But maybe in Romania, bolos are cool. You know what I mean?

Yeah, well, it's hung low too. Yeah, hung low. Kind of styled differently. The slow and low bolo. It'd be 60 in a year and a half. Look at the crowd! They're doing a crowd shot for the first time ever in a 21 convention. There's three people.

There is literally three people. They are so far apart from each other. What's going on? I guess that's what you do is when you don't have anybody, you space them out. Here so. And I'm thinking, you know, there's guys out there who are looking to me as a father figure,

which is interesting. And part of the theme of this conference is the- Daddy, can you help me pick up girls? Daddy, I need pussy badly. I smell a little funky and I eat Taco Bell. Oh, daddy, I need some vogue. I'm watching too much Netflix and I'm going through hell. I need to get in some hot chucha. You have the patriarch, the benevolent patriarch, which is a beautiful concept.

Oh, you're a benevolent patriarch. Oh, that's what you are. Have you ever been, have you ever had a girlfriend? Zahn. Well, that's what I'm thinking. Where's the hot chicks around Zahn? Right. I mean, she's obviously not going to come up on stage with him. We don't know that part of his life.

But if I'm not mistaken, that's a wedding. Is that a wedding? No, that's a pinky. No, it's a pinky. The ball on the pinky ring at 60. Takes balls. Takes balls to do that. And I'm shifting into a kind of a different phase where I'm thinking I'm gonna... I don't trust you. Shifting into a low T phase. I'm kind of winding things down a little bit. By the way, this is awful fancy camera work for it. It is. Very pro. Shifting into a low T phase. I'm kind of winding things down a little bit.

By the way, this is awful fancy camera work. It is, very pro. They got like the sliding camera, panning, zooming, crowd shots of all three people. For three people, this is ballsy. And a very small hotel conference room. Well, as much as I used to, I don't talk as much as I used to,

but I sure believe in a good message that I'm gonna try and share a little bit with you, and I hope you get it. You know, I'll just throw it. There is literally like 10 people in the crowd. Wow. My ideas in the air, and let it land on your shoulders, and see if it resonates. I'm gonna jizz on you.

Ha ha. I'm gonna see how far I can shoot a load. How do you feel about that? Let it land on you. Let it land on you. Let it settle in. Let it settle in. If it just starts like burning through their clothes.

With you and your experience. Talking about this. What's up with the long T-shirt, covering his long tight T-shirt, covering butt? Like, this is a style. He's got a style going on. And I'm not saying it's good or bad, because God forbid that, you know, I wear a t-shirt on every episode of the commercial break and usually the same t-shirt. So, God forbid I say something about somebody else's style. But this is a, this is out there. But maybe in Romania, this is where it's at, you know?

Yeah, maybe. The idea of the patriarch. My concept that I'm thinking these days is what exists, this phrase, what exists because of you? What exists because of you? What exists because of me? Who's out here? What exists because of me? What exists because of you? A statue I made out of Happy Meal boxes.

He's throwing out the wisdom. A super computer I built by myself. Pikachu cards everywhere. Which is the concept of legacy. What does that look like? These guys didn't come to hear about. What's the concept of legacy to you? These guys did not come here to hear about fucking legacy.

They want tips on how to pick up chicks now. You aren't fucking, you know, tit mon chan. No one gives a fuck. No one gives a fuck. About your philosophy. You're not a show gun, dude. You're a fucking, I mean, honestly, let's be honest about it. A living legacy, not something after you're dead, necessarily, but what are you creating

in this world? What do you have to look forward to? I think the worst deficit in the hearts of men and women is when they don't have anything to look forward to, nothing that they're yearning toward. Jared Sussman Did these guys come to hear a speech about their legacy or are they trying to get laid? I mean, the few people that are there, look, the guys look rather young. Normally showing the back of their heads.

I can understand why that is. Because no one has agreed to be on tape. It's kind of like, you know, you never show the jury or the victims in a courtroom, you know what I'm saying? But at the end of the day, these guys didn't come to hear this shit, Zahn. They want to hear about how you get girls, how you've been so successful. What made you the benevolent patriarch of the seduction community. And I think about my, what exists because of me. Dandruff, that's what exists because of you.

I have a daughter. I talked about it in the patriarch side yesterday. And I'm very close. Yeah, she must be proud. That what you've created in this world is a bunch of zombie, like, pickup artists that run around being insincere and inauthentic about who they are and what their intentions are.

But private about this because she's my darling. She's the- She's embarrassed of you. Lily of the Valley to me. And I adore her and I love her. about this because she's my darling. She's embarrassed of you. She's the lily of the valley to me. And I adore her and I love her. I was in her early 20s when she was born. And I didn't know how to be a dad. I was a single guy chasing girls.

So I went to Romania. And she was a couple of seconds out. So I fucked off to Romania and I wrote a couple books. They're still in my apartment in Romania. The books, not the girls. But she's been awful proud of me for the last three or four days that I've been speaking with her. She asked me to keep her name out of it.

Over two or three times a week and I didn't know how to be a dad so I just played. We'd shoot paint my toenails and we'd dance to Madonna. And I loved her every minute of every day to the point where all these years that I've been speaking nobody knows this but for 20 years that I'm public speaking including today every time before I go on stage all over the world in South Africa to Panama to Stockholm I always call her because as soon as I hear her voice, I'm good. There is nothing that can attack me when I hear her voice.

He's been calling her for the past 20 years before he steps on stage? Yeah. Okay. All right. I do have to say as a dad of females, I do have to say this resonates a little bit. There is something specific about a father-daughter relationship and a father-son relationship. They're equal and different at the same time. But there is something that is special about this relationship. So I'm following him a little bit,

but I find it hard to believe. I mean, if I was her though, I would rather have him in person instead of calling from the road. Yeah, instead of calling me from Stockholm where I'm about to talk to guys about how to get pussy. Yes. Also, it's a little bit rich to be giving this particular speech when you're at the 21 convention, which is all about the Manosphere, quote unquote. You might have some naysayers,

well, you say that women are blah, blah, and you just... That's okay, I can live with that because I have her. And I believe in women because of her. Jared Larsen You just don't believe that they have their own will. Jared Larsen Yeah, that they're very intelligent. Jared Larsen Yeah, you don't believe that they're very intelligent, that they have their own will. You believe that they're creatures of mathematical habit and you can manipulate that if you can just break the code.

I believe in the kindness and gentleness and grace of the female spirit because of what I see in my daughter. I'm good. Oh, good for you. Well, thank you. Gives me a lot of relaxation and comfort. Yeah, what in the fuck does this have to do with anything?

These guys are probably like, I paid $1,000, $3,000 for this? I don't feel the need to try, to try to convince you of something, you know? Because you're a daughter? And I also believe in men. I'm here for a good message for you guys, because the world is broken. Society is in anarchy. There's no good messages. Save one.

Oh, oh, and I zone benevolent patriarch. I'm here to deliver it. God father is on. I'm here to deliver it kindly with my benevolent hand. Let's hear that message after we take a break. You knew it was coming. You started laughing because you knew it was coming. All right, we'll be back.

Look, I only just started following the commercial break on Instagram too, and that's on me. But you need to follow us at the commercial break on Instagram and at TCB podcast on TikTok. I know that you are not sick of hearing that and you never will be right. Something else you're definitely not sick of hearing is our phone number. 212-433-3TCB.

If you want to be nice to me on another platform, you can go to our website, tcvpodcast.com, and actually you can just watch videos of Brian and Chrissy and listen to them all day long. And I know that that will be the best day of your life. Now let's listen to someone who's actually very, very nice to me,

and that's our sponsors. And let's get back to the show. and let's get back to the show. We're laughing at Christina's liners. We love them. Yeah. Okay. Mac was on. He's going to give us the,

he says there's no good messages in the world, save one. And he's about to deliver it. What exists because of you is the thought and the process I've been sitting in, you know? That's the message? Ah? Ah? I'm shifting into a phase where I'm sitting in my study. I have a study, my man cave.

Oh, you have a study, do you? With many leather-bound books. Yes, with a leather-bound book. That are mine. And a throne. Bring me the phone so I may ring my daughter and tell her how I get pussy. She's 30, she can deal with it now. Mania, and I sit there in my rocking chair.

In Romania. Yeah, we were right, there you go. I love it. When I was a kid, I used to sit and dream, and I would read like, you know, fiction books as a kid, Tarzan books and stuff, and I was sitting in a rocking chair. Bring me my phone. Bring me my phone so I may ring up thy pussy. Hello, Barbara, are you available tonight?

It's Zahn, benevolent king of pussy. Barbara, are you there? Barbara, this phone doesn't work! Bring me another phone so I may ring Barbara back and get thy pussy for the evening. Barbara? It's me, Zahn, from another phone. The benevolent king of what? Barbara? Barbara? This phone is also trash. Bring me my computer so I can text Barbara. What blocked this computer is trash. Have it burned with my bolos. And all the years I've been traveling and speaking and wandering around the earth and

different places, I didn't have a rocking chair. What? I thought we were going to talk about the one good message on earth About rocking chair Walking on earth Rocking chair, but now I solved the problem I could see him at like an Aldi in Romania Where is that rocking chair Barbara. Where's my rocking chair?

Barbara, bring me my rocking chair. Randomly bought one. And I realized what I've been missing all these years. I can't think without it. I do all my Zoom calls in a rocking chair. Yeah, okay guys, let's go. I bet people love that. Wow.

Your Zoom calls. You know, it's coming to mind at this part in the presentation? The beginning of the presentation where he said, I have nothing prepared. I'm just going to jizz on you and hopefully it makes sense. That's what's coming to mind. If I was in this room, I would be outskig of outskie. I'd be like, this is not what I paid for. So I'm sitting in, I'm shifting into this, I'm shifting into a real patriarch type of phase.

I can feel it. Into my rocking chair phase. I can feel it. I can feel it in my prostate. I'm getting up to urinate much more frequently than I did before, but thank God I have my rocking chair. It's got wheels. Bring me to the urinal so I may piss again.

And where's Barbara? Something to share, gather around. And what would I say to my young self? My young self who was so lost and lonely, is so alone. Why is he patting his face like that? I don't know. I would say, take care of your skin, moisturize. Less cologne.

Yes, less cologne, more shirgans. What would I say to that, to him, now, knowing what I know now? Incredible. Incredible. I'm incredible. Did you hear that? He is drawing this out. Jared Sussman He is not giving us any digestible information having to do with anything. I mean, I was willing to take, I was willing to accept the

fact we were going to go in a different direction and maybe not do so pick-up artist-y type bullshit, but now we are lost in space. Beth Dombkowski Completely. Jared Sussman And Will Robbins is not there to save us. Will Robbins I would say blessings upon you, my son. It's completely. Jared I am a young pope in my mind. Bethany I know. Jared Blessings upon you, young son. It's going to be okay. You're going to have a rocking chair

someday. Bethany And a study. Jared And a study. And a study. And copies of books that I signed for no one. A lot of things. Where was I? And I'm done. This is so good.

I have a beautiful girl in Romania that I've been with for 10 years. Barbara! Long-term relationship. I showed some of you guys the text I got from her yesterday, right? It showed her vulva! It was from 10 years ago. I have been in a relationship with Barbara.

It's a pretty one-sided relationship She sent me some nudes 10 years ago, and I've been texting back ever since more nudes tit-pick Ten years and it's got the the the the height and the depth of devotion and admiration and and and love And I tell you, it's not fair to me that I have a daughter of that beauty and a girl of that beauty and other guys do not. That's not fair. That's not fair. So I'm willing to sell them to you right here, right now. Highest bidder, eBay style auction,

popcorn bidding, who's in? It should be for all. So, my mission is to give you some concepts and ideas that you can have it to you because it's for you, it's available to you. And that's not what the message you hear from this modern society. And that's not what the message you hear from this modern society. You don't hear that from the modern world. Oh, the messages of your 30-year-old daughter and your 10-year-old relationship in Romania are available to all guys? That's the positive message you want to send? Tell me how. 1999 plus 1999 shipping and handling. Romanian chick plus 30 year old daughter needs nothing from you anymore.

But I'm a real believer in it, you know? Me too. I was telling a story yesterday. Last year. Why do I feel like he's always telling a story to somebody no matter where he is? He's definitely doing it. Why do I feel like this is the kind of guy

I would avoid at the bar? I'd like walk into the bar and I go, oh shit, Zahn's here. Let's go over here. And as soon as he starts walking to her, talk to me, talk to me. Pretend like we're in an intense conversation. Hey Zahn, hey, good to see you.

But listen, we're chit-chatting something up really important. Give me like three hours and I'll be gone from the bar. But I hope we see each other again soon. A half ago, my niece contacted me and said, Uncle John, my first name is Jonathan. My middle name is Zan. So my family calls me John.

Okay? Wait, Jonathan Zan? John Zan? John Zan? Your name is John Zan. John Zan. Ah, John Zan. Is that what Barbara calls you? So she said, Uncle John, ever since I was a little girl, she was getting married. Ever

since I was a little girl, I always dreamed about that you were going to be the one to marry us. I'm like, what? What? We're getting married? This isn't in Alabama. No, I'm kidding. Alabama jokes are passe. This isn't Romania. I had no clue. She never mentioned this. I'm like, I can't marry you. I'm not a reverend. Well, you go online and get ordained.

I'm like, okay. So I went online and got ordained. I'm reverend. Reverend John's on here. Blessings upon you. Blessings my child. Blessings upon you, child. That's where the blessings came in. Of course. Jonathan Zanperio.

Laugh here. And I got ordained and I flew to Michigan a year and a half ago in the middle of COVID. And I thought, okay, it's gonna be a small eight person COVID wedding, right? Nope, it was a big giant thing on the lake with swans and unicorns. They were, they were the type of- Swans and unicorns?

What's going on in Romania? Now Michigan. Oh, Michigan. People in a Michigan. Oh, shit, I gotta get to Michigan. Where everybody was defying any kind of orders. Weed has just been made legal in Michigan over like the last five years.

I think Jean Zahn. Isn't that like Sean Zahn? Is it? Jean Zahn? Jean Zahn.... voting things and it was a giant, like you see in the movies with the gazebo and everything, like, and I was nervous. I was nervous to talk at her wedding. I only had to talk for 15 minutes or so. And I've done a lot of public speaking and I do not get nervous. I was nervous there because I don't know why. Because you're not talking about how to get pussy in front of a bunch of guys. You're actually marrying. You've got to be a human being for 15 minutes. I just really wanted to give a good message for her, you know, my niece.

And I'll tell you what my message was because this is, this is to me, the essence of a loving, long-term, beautiful relationship that goes as long as it needs to go, that's available to you. As long as it needs to go. As long as it needs to go. Not sure that's how marriage works. As long as it needs to go. Till death do us part, or as long as it needs to go. Till death do us part or as long as I need to.

Matthew 5 Tiny little secrets I tell you. I know a lot. Matthew 6 I know a lot. Matthew 7 Devotion. How do you, this is what I said to them. I'm marrying them, they're here and here. The people are, you know, eight bridesmaids and eight dudes. Matthew 8

I thought I'd repeat my speech with the marriage. Matthew 9 Did you bring a slideshow? Can we bring out the slides? Because it might be more entertaining than this. I'm not sure, but this is crazy. He has gone from, I don't know, I don't even know where he started. He's gone from, I have nothing prepared, to I'm becoming, I'm the benevolent patriarch of the seduction community, to I got a rocking chair and a daughter, to, you too can have it, to, I was getting married, to, let me paint the picture where there's unicorns and swans on a lake in Michigan.

And this is what I said, because I really believe it. I said, you and you, gaze upon Gaze over here! Gaze. I know what he means, gaze like look. And to eternalize. This is your beloved. That's a word we don't use anymore. We use, we use, uh, my significant other, my partner, date night, work on a relationship.

We use these phrases that are- What? I don't think date night and beloved are interchanging. And partner, yeah. Significant other and date night. Date night, yeah. This is my date night. This is Astrid.

Let me call my date night. My date night, nice to meet you. Hi, I'm Brian and this is my date night. Sounds like a prostitute or something. What is he talking about? He's lost the plot. And there's like 40 minutes left to go. What's he going to talk about next? Soul killing.

And we don't have the concept of the beloved. This is my beloved in whom I am well pleased. I'm well pleased. I think you're just upset we're not talking in Old English anymore. I know. This is thy beloved with whom I am well pleased and satisfied in the groinial area. I shall now jizz them all over my beloved." And if you have that, if you look at your significant other as your beloved...

They're like, yeah, but how do we get the first step? Yeah, but like... How do we meet, girls? Yeah, he's like, how do I get out of my basement and into a room where my beloved might be. How do I do that? Because I'm not entirely sure and that's why I paid $3,000 to be here. It's already. It already has magic and a mystique because that's your beloved. It's a biblical word, we don't use it anymore.

Oh my God. Where is he going with this? So, look upon each other as your beloved, which we're starving for in this modern world. Okay. All right. Listen. All right. For an hour in, we've heard nothing substantive yet. I'm getting a theme with all these plots. If they just talk in circles, then they can charge money. And talk slowly. Yeah, talk slowly, that's right.

Well, you gotta think it through. You don't wanna sound like a total idiot all the time. I mean, listen. It's good to know that Zon's on his journey, if you will. Jean Zon has been on his journey, quote, unquote, fucker. And now he's in his rocking chair phase. And listen, I mean, you know, I'm sure the people that know Jean Zon, they think he's a perfectly lovely guy.

And he probably is a perfectly lovely guy, but he's espousing some ridiculous notions. And we're just going through and listening to him, espouse nothing actually. Not a thing, haven't heard a thing from him. No. Except for- Or his bolo. Yeah, or his bolo. That's right, when's that thing gonna pop on him?

Through like a 3D holiday. I wanted to like tighten it up, you know, and get down to business. Yeah, it needs to be up here. But he's wearing a t-shirt, like a Jack White t-shirt. All right, well, we'll get back to this pile of nothing. Next week, sorry. Next week. I want to thank very much for Kelsey Cook coming in this week. What a lovely human being.
