And some of y'all don't realize how heavy the cross that is to bear. On this episode of the Commercial Break. Has someone had a death in the family recently? I did. On this episode of the Commercial Break starts now. Yeah, boy! Oh yeah, cats and kittens, welcome back to the Commercial Break.

I'm Brian Greene. This is my dear friend and the co-host of this impossibly mediocre podcast, Kristen Joy Hoadley. Best of you, Chrissy. Best of you, Brian. Best of you out there in the podcast universe thanks for joining us well we got a lot of great feedback about the Kyle Kineane interview nice yeah a lot of people texting in saying they enjoyed it yeah he's a great he's a great guy

man was he great I just liked my conversation with Kyle he feels like the I don't know he feels like they like I know a lot of people use this phrase a lot, including presidential candidates, the kind of bad guy you can sit and have a beer with. Yeah. But I feel like he's the kind of guy you can sit and have a beer with, you know? And he would just keep you entertained the whole time. I went and watched one of his older specials,

not the most recent one, Dirt Nap, but I watched one of the older specials. And he is really good at weaving a tale. He's, I don't know, I feel a certain kinship with Kyle. I'm sure he feels it too. We feel it across the internet. It was radiating between you guys. Our Instagram accounts are like, I don't know,

they're like pulsating toward each other. Like two cavemen with hard arms just running toward each other and sword fighting. You know what I'm saying? You don't know what I'm saying, because you don't have a penis, but if you did have a penis, you would know what I'm saying. Okay. Okay. Just sharing that with you. But yeah, everyone really enjoyed it. And a couple of our regulars who dial in here say they've seen Kyle live and that he's really good. So yeah. So go check him out. I would like

to see him live. Yeah. If he swings by Atlanta, we'll go see him. I'm not making any additional effort, Kyle. Don't ask me to come to like Columbus, Ohio or some shit like that. But if you're in the metro Atlanta area, and I can find a babysitter for my 12 to 15 children, then I'd be happy to come on by. You know what I'm saying? I do. That's all. You know who's on tour?

Hannah Berner just announced her tour. Tour drop. She just announced her tour and she's going, I don't know, that Giggly Squad podcast is going to like 20 different cities and Atlanta is one of them. I know, we need to go see her. Just as a general curiosity, it was like, you know, tickets drop at 10 a.m., right? And I'm like, oh, well, is this like, who is this? The Rolling Stones? Is this Justin Bieber going back on tour? How can, does Giggly Squad really need to drop at 10 a.m.? Or can't you say tickets on sale now? That's how you know the difference between

really popular acts and the acts that aren't so popular. With the buildup to the tickets on sale? Yeah, exactly. So a lot of people will say, special promo code in your inbox if you follow us on whatever, you know, 24 hours early tickets, special pricing, all that stuff.

If that's the kind of game that they're playing, then you know there's some pent up demand for the tickets. If they say tickets on sale now, please come, then that's another thing altogether. I was like, so I'm like, oh, let me go on at 10 a.m. and just see what kind, or it happened to be 10 a.m. So I'm like, let me go and see what kind of demand there is. There's a lot of promoting going on, Hannah, for that.

Tickets on sale at 10 a.m., special promo code bullshit. Well, guess what? I got stuck in a queue. I was like, in a queue, in a ticket master queue. And I was like, geez. Demand is there. Yeah, that would be the opposite of us. We would be giving away tickets on the street

to random human beings. Please come. I'd be like, in the aquarium. Bring your children, it's fun. It's a good time for all. Special children, children under 30 get in for aquarium. Bring your children. It's fun. It's a good time for all. Special children, children under 30 get in for free. Oh man. Good for Hannah. She's got something going on over there.

Yeah. She's big right now. Well, she just did her special. I listened to her podcast a little while back and she was filming a special. Oh, okay. And it dropped? She was getting ready. I don't know if it's out yet right now, but- Don't rely on us for the information. Go figure it out yourself, hannahbraddon.com. She was getting ready to film it. And so there was that.

Good for her. And she's on tour and doing all kinds of good things. Good for her. It's all because of our show. I believe it is. All these people blow up directly after they show up on the show, which probably means they went to Conan next.

Exactly. Then blew up. Oh, Lord. Now, I think Hannah had some swag before she showed up on the commercial break. We'll see how likely she is to show up for the second time. I mean, we can only hope. We'll invite. She was super nice.

That's another one that I would love to have. That's another person I would love to have back. Definitely. To see Hannah Berner. And so what'd you do this week? What's the TV that you're on to have. That's another person I would love to have back. It's Hannah Berner. And so what'd you do this week? And what's the TV that you're on right now? What are you watching? What's your thing?

What are you into? Let's see. Astrid's into baby reindeer. She got into baby reindeer, which I didn't think was the kind of thing that she would be into, but she's into it. I actually started watching that show and then I didn't.

You didn't like it? It was too, what, it hit too close to home? No. Have you had a stalker in your past? No, there's just so much on right now. There's so much on. There's so many things I want to watch too that are in the queue and then there's things. I've been kind of on a Apple TV kick.

So Sugar, I'm keeping up with Sugar. Sorry, I'm just fixing the studios, it's falling apart. I saw you doing that. It's like this big gap in these curtains we have. And I'm like, well, that looks wholly unprofessional. What is Sugar? Sugar is Colin Farrell, who I feel like-

I like Colin Farrell. I know, and I feel like I haven't really seen him in things in a while. Maybe he's been out there, I just haven't watched the movies or the things he's been in, but it's a good show. It's kind of like a PI private investigator out in the LA show with a crazy sexy. Yeah. Yeah.

He's driving a convertible. I can feel it coming in the air tonight. Like a Miami vice type real slick and sexy type. Yeah. Yeah. Cool. And then there's like some secrets that are being withheld.

There's this secretive group with the other PIs. So anyways, there's that show, there's Palm Royale. Astrid's watching that. Astrid's watching all the good TV. Which is funny. And then just randomly last night, everyone thought I liked to go to Amazon and go check out like their documentaries.

Yeah, Amazon. They have a lot of good music documentaries and also just documentaries in general. And so I started watching this one that this guy had made about Clue, the movie. Do you remember Clue the movie? I do. I remember how universally panned it was,

like how terrible it was. But there's so many people out there that love it, including me, my sister and I loved that movie. Yes. He did it in the bond stable with the monocle underneath the coat house. Great actors, great actors. And it's just a, it was about the making of Clue. And this guy interviewed the director and the writer and some of the actors.

Is it called Clue? No, it's called the making of Clue. The making of Clue. Well that sounds interesting. It was, it was really interesting and fun. You get into some weird ass shit, I'm telling you what. I mean you think my- There was a documentary on Finster,

you know the artist from, you've got the- Oh, I have a Finster. Yeah, I know. Yeah. I have a Finster. And that was know. Yeah. I have a Finster. And that was from our good friend- Irving. Irving.

I want you to have my Finster. Swerving Irving. Swerving Irving. Listen, Brian, here's a piece of art. I bought it in 1992 at a street fair in New York. And it's a bird. It's a wooden carving of a bird. It's cool.

And it's got Bible verses written in hand all over it. It's painted and then- Because that was Finster's thing. Yes, it was. And so he handed it to us and I was like, oh, that's just wonderful. Thank you, Irving, I appreciate it. And I thought, what in the trash is this?

Like, I- If you don't want it, I want it. Well, no, you can't have it because now it's like a family heirloom. Now I gotta keep it because Irving's dead. If Irving was alive, I'd be able to give it to you. And I'd be like, Irving, I gave it to a needy child, but this is that they can have breakfast. Jeff and I went up there and stayed at his place. And they, you know, he's got that whole- You know who, you know, who, Chelsea and I did that. Our friend, Chelsea, we went,

we stopped by there. Yeah, we stopped by that farm. Anyway, you're probably bored with that because, but Finster's a, like a, he's like a folk artist. Eclectic, yes. Yeah. And he did all these things. He's passed now. He's got a presence here in Georgia. And Irving, my mom's former boyfriend who passed away, of course, we heard the story about the funeral, was tipped over in his grave. It's going off in a year, I think, that happened. But anyway, when, before he passed away in a year, I think that happened. But anyway, before he passed away, a couple, I don't know, six months before he passed away,

eight months before he passed away, he gave me this carving. I had no idea what it was. And I look on the back and I see Finster, like a signature Finster, and I'm like, Finster, that sounds familiar. And so I Google it, these fucking things are going for five, 10, $20,000. Exactly. He became famous, you know, in what?

The 90s. Yeah. Yeah. He was like on The Tonight Show and- He was prolific. Was he a former pastor or something? Yes. Yeah. So that's why I wrote the Bible verses. And then he started doing art to get the word out. But yeah, it's like you've nothing, it's the place is like nothing you've ever seen. If anybody wants a Finster, I'm willing to sell it, by the way. I'm not that, but it's, yeah, it's like you've nothing, it's the place is like nothing you've ever seen. If anybody wants a Finster, I'm willing to sell it by the way.

I'm not that attached to it. Can I give it to you in lieu of a paycheck? How's that? Yes, that will work. I think it might be worth 10 grand. I'm not sure, I don't know. Of course I should have it in some like hermetically sealed box.

I don't, it's sitting in the studio in the closet next to some, you know some dusty Buddha I have. Right next to my Pearl Jam posters. Right below the statue that I gave you, or the statue. The statue of the dog. The statue of the dog. The dead dog. The dead Nico. From the never ending story.

The never ending story. You know what I'm watching? So I don't know if, I don't know, some of our audience members may be familiar because I think it's really a very popular show in the UK and here. Friday Night Dinner is a show produced a number of years back by the BBC for like six seasons. And it's basically about a Jewish family that gets together every Friday. There's two siblings, two older boys are like in their twenties. And then this hilariously dysfunctional mom and dad that are there.

And the boys are always fighting each other. They're playing pranks on each other. They're trying to ruin each other's lives basically. Then they have this weird neighbor who shows up with a dog. The original is so fucking funny. And a lot of people will quote it like, like they would quote Seinfeld or like they would quote friends or whatever. Right. And I got into it during the pandemic and I loved it so much that I watched it back to back all six seasons back to back again. I just, I wanted to squeeze every laugh out

of it. So freebie owned by Amazon rebooted it. It's called Dinner with Parents. So they rebooted it. It's not like they took the original scripts and redid it. It's wholly brand new. And it's about an American Jewish family. It's about an American Jewish family that- Beth Dombkowski Dinner on Fridays? Jared Sosnowski Dinner with Parents. Beth Dombkowski Dinner with Parents. Jared Sosnowski Dinner with Parents is what it's called. And

I think the first four or five episodes is out now, and then they're gonna be coming out with the last, there's like 10 episodes altogether that'll come out with the last. Okay, so they've already done it. Yeah, you gotta watch this, it's really funny. You know who's in it? Henry Hall, which is Julia Louis-Dreyfus' son.

Oh yeah. And then it's got Daniel Thrasher, who's like a very famous TikTok comedian. He's got four or five million. And these two guys play the brothers, like the original, you know, they play the brothers in this version of it. And it's really, there's some out loud belly laughs. I mean, it's really funny. I'm going to watch it. I'm going to put it on my watch list. Put it on there. I'd love to get a couple of them in here to talk about it actually.

So we'll see what we can do. But anyway, that's on my watch list. That's what I'm watching right now. I will get to Baby Reindeer because I think that's interesting. Palm Royale, I started. Eh, I love Kristen Wiig. Lover, lover, lover. But I don't know. Something seems like something's a beat off about this one. It took me a minute to kind of get into it. But once I gave it the full shot, now I'm all in. It's got great actors in it too. Yeah, although listen, I will never dislike anything Kristen Wiig isn't, never ever, because I just think she's a brilliant comedian.

But on the other hand, I don't know, I just didn't, like it didn't strike me like it struck Astrid or like it's striking you, I guess. Yeah, well Carol Burnett is in it too, and now she's, in the beginning she's in a coma, and throughout the show she starts waking up and so she's playing more of a presence in it too. And now she's in the beginning, she's in a coma. And throughout the show, she starts waking up and so she's playing more of a presence in it too. And she is just so good. I mean, wow. Speaking of carols, you know who's in that dinner with parents? Carol Kane. Oh,

Carol Kane. Carol Kane plays the grandmother and she is fucking hilarious. Never ending story. I know. She's the wife of Billy Crystal. Marriage. No, I know, I know, I know. Yeah, she's got that accent, which she uses. I mean, is that Carol Kane's real voice? No. That like Russian Jewish accent that she's got?

I might be mistaken. It might not be Russian or Jewish, but I don't know. She was also in Scrooge'd. Oh, Scrooge is so fucking good. It's a great movie. You know, I forget about Scrooge every fucking Christmas. Every Christmas I forget about Scrooge. And then, lo and behold,

I'll be flipping through the Christmas channels during Christmas time, like we all do, looking for a good Christmas movie. Scrooge will be on halfway through, and I'll be like, damn, I should have recorded this because I would have loved it. It's a great one. Bill Murray is brilliant in that, Carol Kane,

so many other good actors and actresses are in that. Yeah, I mean, I also do the streaming, like shuffle. Sometimes I'll be into Amazon, sometimes I'm into- Wheel of Fortune. I know, and there's so many good shows that I have to catch up on sometimes I'm into- The Wheel of Fortune. Yeah, I know. And there's so many good shows that I have to catch up on. I know. I wanna officially say this.

I think I'm done with 90 Day Fiance. I think I'm done. I think I'm done. I know, it was an option for me the other day and I was like, nope. Yeah, I'll still stick with my seven little Johnstons and my 600 pound life, but I'm and the little, big people, little world,

or little people, big world. But I think I'm done with the 90 Day Fiance franchise. I think it has jumped the shark in my opinion. It feels to me like- And it's just the same story over and over and over again. I don't really wanna see what happens in your relationship. I just wanna, I want the interesting dramatic parts. Like I don't care if you guys broke up five times

after you got married. I don't give a shit. I'm sure that there's a lot of people that are still enamored with that, but I'm just, I'm over it. I've decided there's better things to watch. I've decided there's better things to watch, like Seven Little Johnstons.

I'm sorry, that's just me. That's what I'm into. Oh, and I do have to tell you that I started watching The Sympathizer on HBO with Robert Downey Jr. And I wish I knew his name and I'm so sorry that I don't, but the actor playing the North Vietnamese spy in that is so brilliant in this television series. Apparently there's only three episodes, I guess.

Episode number two got a little weird, but Sympathizer is a great movie. It's about a North Vietnamese spy who is then spying, who then becomes a spy for the South Vietnamese. He's like a double agent, essentially, and how he gets out of Vietnam and these interactions with these weird characters that he has. I love HBO stuff.

Yeah, HBO's good. They're good. They put out quality content, I feel like. Now it's all mixed in on that max app, and I can't understand it for the life of me. Oh, let me tell you about, and I'm gonna tell the audience about this, about one of the funniest animated shows

that I've been watching is Royal Crackers. Have you seen Royal Crackers? No, but I've seen of it, yeah. Watch it, watch it. Royal Crackers. So fucking funny. Royal Crackers, so good. It is so brilliantly done. It is so hilarious.

You gotta watch Royal Crackers. They're on season number two right now. Okay, is itiantly done. It is so hilarious. You got to watch World Crackers. They're on season number two right now. Okay. Is it on max? It's on max. Everything's on max. Everything's on that fucking max. But you know, it used to be HBO. HBO and then you went somewhere else for all the other stuff. And now it's all mingled and co-mingled and I just don't understand it. I really don't. It's likely if I'm want to watch. And now, because the streaming wars have essentially

decimated any kind of entertainment ecosystem as far as television and TV movies is concerned, and just regular movies is concerned, now they're back to the old playbook where they're buying each other's content. So some of the stuff that was made by Turner or Warner Brothers or HBO or whatever is now being sold back to Netflix. So you got to go back to fucking Netflix to watch something that you shouldn't be able to get on Max. What the fuck? Why? What are we doing?

What are we doing? What happened? I thought that was going to be it. Everyone's going to silo their own bullshit and then we'd be able to go there and watch it. Well, now it's all discombobulated. I'm going to have to... Every network came out with their own streaming. I know. And now they're realizing, oh, that's not as easy as we thought it was. That's not the milk cow we thought we had. I mean, it really isn't. So, you know what?

I'm glad I'm still plugged in. You know they say, cut the cord. I'm glad I still have the fucking cord. I just got to say that right now because at least I could flip through that. You know who has more shit than anybody? Direct TV, the stream, you know, Direct TV stream, which I have. And it's like, okay, I'll just figure it out. Because you can almost find any television show, most movies that you want to see.

And then also if you don't want to pay for it, you just go to whatever, you know, HBO Max or whatever. But you can really find 90% of the stuff that you want to watch right there on their ongoing system. This is not a commercial for DirecTV. You do? Yeah.

I love it. That drives me crazy. Why? Because we're paying for all of it. Double, it seems like. Duff has to have it because that's the only way we can get ballet sports and that's the only way we can get Braves.

We can watch the Braves, that's right. Us too, that's one of the things. So you're telling me just go to DirecTV. I think just go to DirecTV. I mean, listen, you got that remote, you talk to it. I got my kids, my youngest child, who doesn't even speak like 10 freaking words, right? She has been watching people pick up that remote and talk to it. So now when she gets ahold of the remote, she's like, and then she'll point it at the TV. And I'm like, well, we're all fucked. I'm pretty sure end of days are here. They're here. They're

here. They're here. It's terrible. I can't stand it. My child knows how to work the remote better than I do. And she's not even one! They're all going down. It's very true. Going number one with a bullet. Okay. So today is Friday. And of course, as we do on most Fridays, we have a video breakdown. And I thought that I would just go to the well one more time because I saw, I saw Teresa Caputo on the Kelly Clarkson show. Oh, really?

Recently? Yeah. I think it was recently, like the last three or four months. Probably promoting that new crazy show she's got. Yeah. I don't know what she's promoting, but it's the first time I've ever seen Teresa Caputo. Maybe the first or second time I've ever seen Teresa Caputo with her hair up and her ears showing. Oh. And, you know, I like Kelly Clarkson. Don't get me wrong. But I think Kelly is into this

bullshit. I'm not, obviously we're not into Teresa Caputo's brand of, you know, bullshit, but I thought it would be interesting to review the interview that she did as she talks about her daily life and what it's like to be a medium so that we can get through it. All right, so let's do that. Let's take a break and then when we get back, we'll go straight to Teresa Caputo. Mind your manners, everyone. Stick around for the next two and a half minutes.

Teresa's coming up next. We'll, wait, you know what? We'll be back in just one second as soon as I get my shit together here. Sorry. As you do. As I do. Not have my shit together. All right, we'll be back. I know you're already on your phone, so pull up Instagram and follow us at The Commercial Break, and then follow us on TikTok at tcbpodcast. Done? Perfect. Thank you.

Speaking of having it all, let's listen to our fabulous sponsors and get back to the commercial break. Hey, Podcast Universe. I'm super excited to be talking about an old friend of mine, Jordan Harbinger and his podcast,

The Jordan Harbinger Show. You know that Chrissy and I don't do a lot of talking about other podcasts, but The Jordan Harbinger Show definitely deserves a mention and here's why. Imagine the serious version of the commercial break where you actually learn facts from actual experts and in-depth interviews. All the crazy, interesting, weird, and philosophical stuff that we find on the commercial break to have fun with Jordan takes some of those same topics and he applies a degree of Serious journalism to it and he is an excellent interviewer Maybe one of the best in the business in my opinion We know for a fact that a lot of people who listen to the commercial break also listen to the Jordan Harbinger show

So if you haven't yet taken a listen go search the Jordan Harbinger Podcasts on Apple or wherever you get your podcasts or head over to his website Jordan Harbinger dot com. That's H A R B as in boy I N as in Nancy G E R. Jordan has been a long time supporter of the show and many people have written in and thanked me for turning them on to Jordan Harbinger, including one of our staff members who is like a Jordan Harbinger super fan. And to quote her, Jordan Harbinger is like the commercial break with actual facts and a lot less laughing We think you're gonna love the Jordan Harbinger show

So go search on Apple wherever you find your podcasts or get started with those starter packs at Jordan Harbinger Dot-com and we want to thank Jordan for being a supporter of the commercial break All right, so trolling around the internet the other day and I caught a video with Teresa Caputo on the Kelly Clarkson show. So without further ado, I was trolling on the internet. As you do. Oh man, do I do do. And I want to share it with the audience here because you know what?

That's what we do here on the show. Oh, wow. Wow. Look at that hair. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. What is that? What do you call that? A pompadour? What is that? It looks like that guy who was the-

RuPaul? Well, that could be a RuPaul style, but the guy that was the bounty hunter? Dog the bounty hunter. You're so right about this. Teresa Caputo has Dog the bounty hunter's hair style on Kelly Clarkson right now. Let's check out what they're up to. Hold on one second here. Okay, there we go. Oh.

I know now we're in New York. The last time we were in LA. What are you going to do? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sounds like a commercial break interview. So this time you were in New York, then you're in LA. Where'd you go before that?

Where are you born? How are your parents? I know, I like it. I love it here. There's nothing like New York. You've been very busy here. Yes. Yes.

You have a- Yes, I'm bullshitting people constantly. I've got a lot of people rolling around my head, a lot of ghosts I got to talk to every daily basis. Podcast right now, right? Do you love it a lot of ghosts I got to talk to every daily basis. Podcast right now, right? Do you love it? I do. I love, it's called Hey Spirit.

And I love being able to connect people, you know, all over the world and, you know, over a Zoom. It's amazing. It's amazing. My powers extend through Zoom. The fucking good bullshit is this. Come on, Kelly. Spirit really validates that they're still with us. It's absolutely incredible.

I know Kelly has to feel content like the rest of us. And I do like Kelly Clarkson. I really do. I think she's like a genuine personality. I applaud her success and I think she's a badass bitch. But I don't like giving a platform to this lady and her shenanigans. That's just my personal opinion. Yeah. And it's- Like Kelly Cares or even knows. Our podcast is as popular as, hey spirit. Hey spirit. Hey spirit.

Hey spirit. Hey spirit. Come on and zoom call with me. So like even scheduling too in your life, like it's kind of cool you can schedule a podcast more around you, which is nice. Yeah. Uh huh. Uh huh. Yeah.

She looks nervous. She looks bored. She's like, yeah, talk to me about my podcast. Well, Teresa says she connects to those who have passed on through something she calls spirit. So you say spirit guides you, but do you ever feel that like physically? Oh, yes. They kick me in the head all the time. So far, Teresa in her career has been slapped,

pushed, punched, kicked. She gets nudged by spirits. We never see her actually physically react to any of these things. No. But that's what she says. If spirit just tapped me on the back of the head, that means your uncle died in a terrible fishing related accident. So what happens is a lot of times when souls, when they first start to communicate with me, they make me feel like the bond that they shared with the person. But a lot of times they'll just bring me through the departure. They'll make me feel what they felt as the soul left.

When they were dying? God. I don't even think Teresa believes this anymore. Do you know what I'm saying? I don't even think Teresa believes her own bullshit. I think she's- How could you not be hospitalized if that's what you were constantly feeling? Are other people dying? She's going through it, she's feeling the motions, and all of this happens in just milliseconds before she opens her mouth and starts talking. It's wholly unbelievable. That seems rude.

Yeah. Well, not rude. Oh my God. It was rude. Yeah. Well, not rude. Oh my god. It was rude. It was hard. It is very hard. I always say I make what I do look very easy. It's the hardest thing that I have to do

is to stand in front of someone and take them on this emotional roller coaster of feeling pain, sorrow, loss, and grief. Exactly. But I make it look easy. You don't. That's right. It's the hardest thing in the world.

I'm such a martyr for everybody. But yet, you do take people and put them through an emotional roller coaster. If it's the hardest thing you ever do, then don't do it. Then don't do it. Just pack up and go home. She's got to have some money, right? She can sell that big bus she's driving around in all across the country, can't she? I mean, come on. This is like just, we're not going to be mad if you stop, Teresa. I'm just sharing that. And then try to give them peace and a little just, we're not going to be mad if you stop, Teresa. I'm just sharing that. And then try to give them peace and a little bit of... Well, actually, I might be mad because then I'll have to film more content with someone

else. ... levity and laughter to know that their loved ones are still with us. And that's one of the reasons why I do what I do. It's not people to believe in what I do. Her hair is as big as her head. I know. It's got to be two and a half feet off her head. It's insane.

How does she do that? Where's gravity? Yeah. It says, Oh, that's a lot of hairspray, but it is literally as tall as her face is tall. There's got to be something going on with that hair. Right? Am I right? There's gotta be like, there's some device in there or something. There could be anything. There could be a car. Maybe that's where the, maybe that's where she puts the ghosts. I don't know. I have no idea. But this is it. Her hair is literally two feet off the top of her head. Maybe she's using that as like a helmet to help with all of the physical. Yeah, it's a satellite dish where she tunes in. It's a ghost dish. I want people to believe in themselves, to believe in an afterlife, to know that their

loved one's souls are still with them just in a different way, and just to embrace those things that remind you of them. That's beautiful. That's beautiful. It's a bunch of bullshit, but it's beautiful. I don't think Kelly believes what Teresa is saying, and I don't believe Teresa believes what Teresa is saying. This is like two women that are just, two humans that are just talking around the obvious thing,

which is this is, I mean, listen, I guess anything's possible, right? Anything's possible. Oh yeah, and I believe, I do believe, you know, that there's energy and things. Me too. And who knows what's happened after you actually physically, your body dies. But yeah, for her to-

To be able to tune in like a TV channel like this. A specific person's loved one. Yeah, seems kind of horseshit. On demand. Whenever you say you feel it, do you actually feel it physically, like feel affected? Yeah, like I could feel like, I already knew when I was standing back there

that there was a real tragedy of a departure because I kept tasting blood and I kept feeling like a blow to my chest. So like- Oh my God. Tasting blood and getting a blow to your chest and then I just came out here. Yeah, it's all the cocaine I've been doing. I feel blood in the back of my throat and a blow to my chest. That's how I feel when I'm on crystal meth.

This is such horseshit. She's already priming the audience. Someone in the audience has already identified themselves as the person who believes this. She's dropping the seeds of a cold reading. In here? When I was standing back there getting ready to... Yeah, back there. Oh. That, I'm... Wow.

That's heavy. Yeah. Because then you don't want to walk out there and go, hey, well, you know, that's the thing. Yeah. Kelly, poor Kelly. She doesn't know what to do. She's like, where do I take this?

Where do I go with it? People came here today. They didn't come to maybe expect to see me. They came to see you, right? They didn't know I was coming. And that's what I would say. Spirit gives us what exactly what we need to kind of restore our faith and to know that they are okay and more importantly, that their soul is at peace. I've got spirits all around me. They're big confronting me left and right.

Kelly, I can't see you. I've got a ghost right, ghost cross right in my face. Well, and the thing, the crazy thing is too, is, I mean, does this apply to any and all spirits? Like, if she's in front of Jeffrey Dahmer's family, like, is she channel, is she going to channel him? Jared Ranere Yes, Chrissy, of course. That's the international laws of ghost science. Lauren Ruffin Is his soul at peace? Jared Ranere His soul is definitely at peace. Lauren Ruffin God.

Chrissy Pauly There's so much closure for people in just such a peaceful way. It does. Yeah. You can't imagine how many people pass and what people are left with for whatever reason. I can't imagine how many people pass. All of them. All of them die, Teresa. Everyone.

Some people come, they don't want to live anymore. They don't know how. There are times when people haven't spoken to live anymore. They don't know how. There are times where people haven't spoken to other family members because someone died. And someone will come to a reading and it will restore their faith. It'll give them a purpose to live. They'll reunite families that haven't spoken. So how many so much more than just- I mean, it's an entertainment show. It's a form of her entertainment.

Kelly, if you don't mind, I'd just like to say Mahatma Gandhi, MLK, Teresa Caputo, I'm here to make peace on earth. I make it look easy. I make it look easy. It's super hot. I'm talking with people that have died. Absolutely. So your new show, it's a combined readings and your personal life, right?

Correct. So this is like full on. Do you mind being on camera a lot like that? Like all this- Oh my God, Kelly, come on. That's the dumbest question you could have asked her. I mean, Kelly, does she mind being on camera? She is a camera.

She is so thirsty for attention, publicity, and money that she will literally do anything, anything to keep that television show running. It's been on 15 different channels, it's had three different versions. And all that show does is just drive people to her live events where she makes even more money. But by reports, by reports, probably people that don't like Teresa,

I will share that. By reports, those shows are real fucking shit shows. Like a lot of times Teresa just cannot make it work. Like she's picking only a few certain people that obviously have had interaction with the staff and Teresa gets it wrong a lot. Read about the Takarisa Caputo live events. And again, haters will always be louder than people who believe, but just read a couple of those, I guess, you know, reviews of her live events and tell me that.

We've seen it happen even on some of the ones that we've done where people are like, no. Almost everyone. That, and then all of a sudden she's miraculously called to like another section of the audience where it is working. Is anybody lost a grandfather? I know.

Yeah, somebody will raise their hand and they'll be like, and your grandfather, his name started with a J? No, his name is Bob. I wasn't talking to you. Whose was a J? Who had a grandfather with a J? I got a piggy fronted. Someone's piggy fronting me. I just got kicked in the uterus. That means someone died. It's so crazy. Like I don't even realize that they're there. I don't either. It's normal. I think that's not normal. But I don't either. that they're there. I don't either it's not normal, but I Do you mind the cameras here? I'm like what cameras I'm like, it will be somewhere and I didn't even see it I've been on camera for four or five years now. I know exactly where those cameras are and I hate them.

Nobody else can see it. So to me, a camera is like, you're always here. It's the most natural thing for me. And the thing that I love about Raising Spirits, it's because I am on the road so much and I'm away a lot. And so they're on there, you know. What in the world is that? They're showing like a sizzle reel for her new show,

Raising Spirits. And some guy just showed her a tattoo of like two guys hugging. There's just the outline. The outline of two guys hugging. What was that? The bus with me, they're seeing what it's like in a day of a life of me.

And it's- I think people will probably see how draining it must be and feel and that's an emotional roller coaster all the time every time you're talking with someone. It sure is. Yeah, but I wouldn't trade what I do for anything in the physical world.

I consider it an honor and a privilege to be able to share. Oh my God. She does it for free, right? She's literally acting like a martyr now. Yeah, that's why she does it for free. It's all for free. I can guarantee you, you will never get read by Teresa. Teresa, unless cameras were in front of her,

you wouldn't walk up to her in a grocery store and she would tell you exactly what's going on with one of your dearly departed loved ones. My gift and to give someone some peace and comfort. And the fact that people trust me with the souls of their departed loved ones means the absolute world to me. So it's an honor to do what I do. So trusting them with the souls.

Like she's receiving an award or something. I know. Yeah. The soul awards. I'd like to thank God. Yeah, the soul awards. I've told this before, but remind us what it's like for you

when you start connecting. So what happens is I just feel immediately drawn. So I was drawn to this. Okay, here she goes. Here goes into the cold reading. This is the part I wanted to get into. There we go. Sorry, but I was more drawn to this area Okay, here she goes. Here goes into the cold reading. This is the part I wanted to get into. I was more drawn to this area over here, down here, and up in here.

The people on the balcony. Over there. And then down here and up in here. She's pointing, for those who are listening to the show. Basically to the whole entire audience. She just goes one big finger wag across the whole audience. It's such horseshit. I love it. Here she goes into her cold reading, which she's bound to screw up because we've seen a lot of these on the commercial break. I mean, we've probably done 12, 15 Teresa Caputo videos over the last five years. Almost every one of them included a cold reading and almost every one of them, she falls on her face in some way, shape or form. But this is a parlor trick. This is something that is learned. It's passed down from family to family. Travelers. I can't say gypsies anymore, so I'll say travelers.

The travelers used to do this all the time. And again, I want to share with you, Chrissy and I wholly believe in a universal energy, and there may be ways to receive messages. I mean, that's very personal to me, so I'm not going to share my version of it, what, you know, what your version of it is, what your version of it is. So I believe that there is a way to communicate with energy that no longer holds physical form. I do too. But I don't believe that a lady with a hair satellite dish and a, like, a penchant for

being in front of the cameras all the time is the lady who has chosen to be this medium. I just don't think so. And so much of her shit is clearly bullshit and wrong. If she was really able to do this, don't you think her batting average would be much better? Don't you think her batting average, if she's so specific sometimes, and then she's non-specific other times, it's a parlor trick. It's what it's been going on for decades, centuries, forever, forever. It's been going on forever and ever. This is just the really like hyper 2024 version of it. TikTok, Instagram, podcast, Kelly Clarkson. You know what I'm saying? Poor Kelly. Kelly, come on the show. I want to talk to you about this. I really do. Okay. Well,

let's do this before we get into the cold reading, why don't we take a break and then we'll come back with the cold reading. Let's do it. Okay, we'll be back. Well, thank the baby Jesus. Brian took a breath and now I will use this opportunity to let you know that we've got a brand new phone number. That's right, it's 212-433-3TCB. And you can text us anytime you want. Or you can call and leave us a voicemail, and we might just use your message on the show. Once Brian gets through all the messages he missed last year, of course.

Anyway, you can also find and DM us on Instagram at the commercial break and on TikTok at TCB Podcast. And of course, all of our audio and video is easily found on TCBPodcast.com. Now I'm going to thank G one more time that we have sponsors. So thank G, more time that we have sponsors, so thank G and here they are. So sorry I cut you off before the break. Did you have something to say?

No, okay. Now you're saying, what do you think? Yeah. That's what I think. What do you think? Let's do it. All right, we're back with Teresa Caputo starting her cold reading at Kelly Clarkson's.

Kelly Clarkson's show, excuse me. Just keep feeling, there's just one soul that keeps bringing me through a very traumatic departure. So I keep getting like a blow to the chest and I keep tasting blood. So that's my symbol for where someone passed tragically. And I always say- What? Yes, that does seem tragic.

It does seem tragic if you have a blow to the chest and tasting blood. The whole thing, that's not a, you didn't die in your sleep. She'll spin that into, it was a heart attack or it was anything. You can spin that into so many different ways. You're so right. Seven questions later, she will be somewhere else completely once she starts to hone in on her quote unquote, you know, I call them victims, but we'll see what happens. Yeah. You know, like, like I said, like nobody came here today thinking that they might hear from their loved one that has died. I always deliver messages. It is because sometimes someone

would be like, okay, all right. Four times we've said that. Who are you, Brian Green? You don't get, she doesn't know. I like Kelly. I think she really doesn't know what to do with this. To do, yeah, no. Aid or not know what to expect when their loved one does come through. Well, I think she really wants to hone in on like, how, what, like, how is this happening

with you? But Teresa's already off into the cold reading. But you need more, yeah off into the cold reading. Yeah, she's cold reading because Teresa knows that too much talking is going to, she's going to talk herself into a corner, right? So she figures... If she can divert, then to someone in the audience, then hone in. It's kind of like us. Like you turn on a microphone and I feel the need to say something funny, right? Or a comic that stands up in front of a crowd.

They'd have to say something funny. It's Or a comic that stands up in front of a crowd. They'd have to say something funny. It's like compulsive because that's what they know to do. That's their comfort level. Teresa's the same way with these fucking, you know, weird spirits flying around her head, talking to her, pushing her, punching her, throwing blood down her throat, but she's still having a full conversation with Kelly Clarkson. I'd say, but I can guarantee you it will always be things of faith and healing. So I don't want anyone to be afraid. Do you understand the tragedy? Here she goes. She picked her victim. Someone's up there. Someone's looking at her. Yeah.

Up over here, ma'am. Do you understand tragedy? A week ago? Okay. Okay. Now Kelly's looking very surprised that someone, one of the 700 people in her audience, someone died recently. Come on. And very tragic, is that correct? Okay. What? So, yeah, actually.

Because now, do you feel like a chill or like some type of- She's standing up. Yeah, she's up in the balcony, by the way. She's standing up. And Teresa has now stood up to divert any kind of attention from her, how this happens. That's right. I asked the soul to move through you to validate that the soul is present. Wow. Because the reason why this is happening, because you and the family were afraid- Did you feel a rush of cold air? They're in a studio. They keep those things really cold. Do you feel like you got a bad seat at the Kelly Clarkson show?

Because that's my sign that someone recently died. All is not safe in a piece with. Oh, what happened there? I think so, right? Yeah. Yeah. Is that correct? Yeah.

So just know that this is the soul's way of validating that they are okay. And more importantly, that we could not have prevented this departure. Wow. Do you agree? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, let's point out a few things here. First of all, say the name of the person who has passed away, if you're so inclined.

Why can't you know the name? How come you can't be that specific? If they're talking to you and telling you things, why can't they say what their name was? Understand that. Yeah. Because I felt like I needed to take responsibility for my departure. Who understands the car accident?

Ah, there we go. She milked that enough. She knew she was going into territory where she couldn't answer the questions. Yep, so now she's diverting. You're just talking to them? They're telling me that. I go, you're messing up this reading

over here, I'm trying to do this reading here. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry, I've waited all my life to be in the same room with you. Could I have your phone number, we best friends yet. I'm so sorry. What? Validating for you that they heard you.

Do you understand that? What plans changed that day? Because what happened is they put me in the car and they switched my seat. So that's my symbol for that. Plans changed that day? Because what happened is they put me in the car and they switched my seat. So that's my symbol for that. Plans changed that day, they switched cars or they switched drivers. What?

Oh, come on, Kelly. You don't need to be so overdramatic about it. You knew exactly what was going to happen. Yeah. We were supposed to go out together. I stood home. I acted like I was asleep and she went with my best friend. It was both of them in the car.

And usually when we went out together, I always took a ride with the best friend. But since I wasn't there, my sister did, because she didn't like going in the car with her. So let's roll the tape back just a second here. I want to point out how real bullshitty this is. They are in an audience in a balcony high above the set, right? I'm guessing 15, 20 feet. There are production assistants that ran a microphone to the first lady who talked when Teresa said,

I felt blood in my throat and a punch in my chest. When they cut to the second lady who was in a car accident, a microphone was already in her hand. So, clearly, somebody knew that this lady was having some kind of reaction or was going to want to talk. And this seems like the type of person that probably would have, you know, that somebody in the audience is hearing, like a production assistant, is hearing her say something and then throws her a microphone because, oh, do you want to talk? Okay, here you go. They died. they both died. And you have been carrying this burden for years,

for decades. And what the spirit wants you to know is it wasn't your fault. It wasn't your fault. They're okay. You let it go, they're okay, they're perfectly fine. Stop all the Facebook posting about it, by the way. It's beautiful, it's beautiful. But just stop all the Facebook and about it by the way. It's beautiful. It's beautiful. But just stop all the

Facebook and TikTok posting. Valuing for you that they do not want you to carry this burden of feeling that if you were there or somehow you could have been responsible. Do you understand that? Or if you went, this never would have happened. Tell her I miss her and I love her so much. You just did, ma'am. She also just told me that you connect with the song on the radio that reminds you of her. Oh, come on! Because a song never makes you think of someone that you know. Yeah, because every song I hear on the radio doesn't remind me of something. Yes.

Right? Come on, Teresa. The... right? Always. Not laying it on purpose. Know that that is her soul, her energy that is with you at the exact moment. So know that she wants to thank you for that. And know that everything that you see is truly her and that she hasn't left you. Oh, thank you so much.

Oh my God, you're wrapping this lady into a total emotional craze. Teresa, stop. This is what drives me crazy. This poor lady came here. You know, Teresa says, everybody came here, they didn't know they were going to get a reading from me. Of course they did. They're going to the Kelly Clarkson show.

There are guest lists. They know that they're walking in here. You didn't just put a room full of people that didn't know that you were going to be in the audience because Teresa needs those type of people, the type of people who believe in her brand of bullshit in order to do what she does. So the reality is all these people are probably in some way, shape or form fans of Teresa Caputo, ready to hear from her about their spirits. But what Teresa is doing is now taking a very vulnerable, obviously emotional human being that has been through something tragic, even if it was decades ago, and now she's emotionally twisting her into a craze.

And this is the part that I think is really the worst version of, like, it's the worst outcome of what Teresa does, is that if you are so broken up about the passing of somebody that you love, which is probably anybody that you love that passes. It's a difficult thing to go through. Then you are almost willing to do anything to hear from them again. And if you are open to this brand, open to this type, open to this stream of bullshit coming out of Teresa's mouth, then guess what? You are susceptible to being emotionally manipulated by these type of readings. And that's the worst thing. This lady is now going to go on with her life and never forget the day that Teresa told her to keep talking to this person who has died. I don't think she's doing any good for this lady. I really don't. Don't thank me, thank her. She's the one that did it. I love my sissy. She's the one that did it. I love my sissy, she's the best. Do we understand the hitting of the head?

That was her. Okay. Do we understand the hitting of the head? Did she suffer? She was in a car accident. The head was perfectly fine. She passed in a car accident. The hitting of the head.

I think that she was, was she starting to say that for someone else or was she saying that for that woman? I think she's saying it for that one, but that's how she piggy fronts into the next person. I think she did. It was a tragic car accident. Because she hit me in the back of the head. What in the good fuck is going on? She then had this blow to the chest and she made me feel like I didn't,

I immediately left the physical body. Okay, so I was told that before. Oh my God, yes. She says, I need you to believe that I did not suffer to my death or if anyone got to me sooner that I would still be here. Thank God. Know that my soul immediately left.

Oh, thank you God. What a terrible thing to be, I don't know. Now, you know, I think all of this is really funny on some level, I really do. But what I don't think is funny is that this poor lady is so damn affected and Teresa is being highly graphic about what happened to her and saying, don't worry about it, everything was fine.

Sorry for the loss. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. I wish you all the best. I appreciate you. God, you do this all the time? This is so intense. I could keep going.

I could keep going, but I don't have my earpiece in, so I'm relying on my production assistants pointing out who's vulnerable in the crowd. So intense. Yeah. That was overwhelming to just be in the room while all of that just went down. Can you do that regularly? And I could. No, Kelly.

You don't know anything about Teresa Caputo. You do that regularly? Come on, Kelly. I know. I'm so confused because you at least know who your guest is going to be. Are we really supposed to believe that Kelly doesn't know what Teresa Caputo does? I'm suspecting that Kelly may not also buy this brand of bullshit and she's just trying her best not to say that out loud. Why doesn't Teresa do a full-blown reading with Kelly? Well,

Kelly might be the easiest one to do the reading for because she's famous, right? So she would know almost everything about Kelly's life. Trust me, you get to Kelly Clarkson level fame, almost everything about your life is out there in some way, shape or form. People that you know start getting paid $100, $200, $300 to tell a story for a tabloid byline or something like this. Like there's probably very little about Kelly Clarkson's life that people don't know. Like, when I first came out, people like thinking, oh my God, and then it's almost like, oh, well, I wonder if my loved one is here. I think that was me.

But still, pull out an old great, great, great, great grandfather. Yeah. Yeah. What if I said that? Has someone had a death in the family recently. I did. Back in 1842, Columbus sailed the ocean blue. My great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather died in a smelting accident back in Celtic Ireland. I should say something. So I just say to you all, just embrace and know that the things that go on around you that remind you of your loved one that has died, to know that that

is them, know that there is an afterlife. Did you see that? They did like a crowd shot and there was one lady who seemed highly irritated with Teresa. She was like, and that they will greet us when we do leave this physical world. I can feel like there are so many people that have a million questions. A million questions right now. Of course. But I can't answer them for you because I'm not getting paid. So come back, give me a call on my hotline, 9.99 plus 90 cents a minute. Yeah. And I understand and I read with respect. What I do is not for everyone. And I will never force messages on anyone.

I can see how that might scare someone to where they'd be quiet about it and then talk about it later. A thousand percent. Yeah, yeah. Right. And that's okay. It freaked me the hell out. Well, give...

Nah. Do you understand this? Oh my God. If I had to live in a house... Do you understand this? Yes, I do. Do you understand? Are you understanding? Do you understand? Everyone understands I had to live in a house, yes I do. Do you understand? Are you understanding? Do you understand?

Everyone understands? No one understands, Teresa. How you do it? I'm waiting for the big reveal. I'm waiting for when someone finally catches Teresa with like an earpiece or something and then we all figure it out. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah.

Best day of my life. Can't wait. All right. She's something else. There you go. She's something else. There you go. She just keeps going. Shh.

Listen, there. I mean, it's a whole business. I read an article, we talked about it about three months ago, that for the first time in human history since this type of polling has been done, more than 30% of Americans would rather talk to a psychic than a therapist. Yeah. What.

The. Fuck. Honestly. And, I don't know, this brand of bullshit just keeps getting perpetuated. Well, because it's so vague and it's so mystical and magical and you can't prove anything. You can't prove anything. For sure. No, no you can't.

And, you know, listen, there are a lot of our audience members have written in and said I believe in this. Like, Teresa, I believe in Teresa. And that's okay. You've probably tuned out of this episode, but that's okay. I get it. We do once of these every three or four months. But I get it.

I understand, you know. I wanna believe that my dead loved ones can talk to me also. Absolutely. But I've got my own version of what that looks like. And it does not include blood down the back of my throat, which I'm really happy about. I don't think my sister is out there channeling Teresa.

No. I'll just say that. No, I don't think so either. I don't think she zeroed in as Teresa. Kelly would have a major problem with her hair just to begin with. I think your sister is here laughing with us about Teresa. Yes, I think so too. That's my version. I think so too.

Okay, Teresa Caputo, there you go. That one's for Julia, by the way. Julia requested a Teresa Caputo video. Nice. So Julia, there you go. Is that my ex-wife? She's fucking around with me. What's going on there all right so let's
