It's just a gesture. I mean, it's not like I'm not saying get your head down there and suck it. He's not the only one. I think it's friends, people you see, you know, you hear them in the stores, everywhere you go. So it's not just him singling out doing it. So we got a generation of kids yelling, suck it.

Yeah. On this episode of the Commercial Break. The episode called Holding Space, you download it, but you're allowed to not listen to it. Right. Okay? It's going to be like a 35 minute show where Chrissy and I are going to be really low key. I'm going to change the opening music to some frilly corporate bullshit that I find on some music site.

And then we're just gonna talk lightly for 35 minutes about your inner child. I think it's needed. Yeah, and then we're gonna say, oh, listen, it's about friendship. Take a listen to all this. Yes. When people ask me what the podcast is about,

I go, it's about friendship. Friendship. That's what I say. When people ask me what the podcast is about, I go, it's about friendship. The next episode of the commercial break starts now. Welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is the Sanders to my RFK juniorr. Chris the joy. Holy bet you great Thank you, Brian. Best of you out there in the podcast universe. It's catching a little bit of the RFK jr What are they confirmation?

Confirmation hearing Wow, you're nothing like your cousin coming out and calling you a predator Well, there's just a lot to be chewed on when it comes to RFK jr But all the Kennedy's I think think, are in the same boat. So I don't want to talk politics on the show, but that is one of the more interesting 15 minutes of television I have watched this year. I will say that. And congratulations to everybody involved

in making great TV for the afternoon. It's fantastic. So here we are. Speaking of predators, Harvey Weinstein says he needs to get a trial quick and get the hell out of this hellhole. That's what he said to the judge. I need to get the hell out of this hellhole. Oh, I'm sorry, Harvey.

Did we bother you? Did we hurt your little pallywhacker? Oh, poor Harvey. Listen, you're getting all your comeuppance and I think you deserve them. Absolutely. If any of the shit that'suppance and I think you deserve them. Absolutely. If any of the shit that's, that is correct about you is true. Yeah, Jimmy, he's got medical problems and all this stuff,

but I say keep him in there. Yeah, I don't think he's going anywhere. I mean, I think the judge overturned his first conviction for something or other, but then made him stay in jail while they proceeded with the second trial. It was like a technicality or something. And so he said, no, don't go anywhere, stay there. And listen, innocent until proven guilty, but he was proven

guilty. There's some technicality got him out. It got him unguilty. And I think the judge saw through it. So yeah, Harvey Weinstein, one of the one of the more shitty people. Speaking of like Harvey Weinstein and the moviemaking business, I've been talking to a lot of friends here in Atlanta, who are not super jazzed about the movie making scene here in Atlanta. Yeah. Well, I was reading something like it's decreased by 40%. Yeah, it's shrunk by 40 or 50% over the last couple of years. I have family that works there. My brother works in the business. We have friends that work in the business. And

apparently the word on the street is the reason why Atlanta became such a popular place to film over the last two decades was the tax incentives that were signed into law by our by our state government here giving essentially a bunch of tax rebates if you came and you filmed here and you hired locally. Yeah. So for years and years and years, movies could save tens of millions of dollars, you know, percentages off the top by X factor, and they could do that just by filming here in the city. Also, the weather is nice. We don't have some of the drama that you see out in California, the big studios and the big prices that go along with the big studios, and it costs a million dollars to film on Rodeo Drive because

they all understand the value and how much money floats around that movie making system. Well, the same thing has happened here in Atlanta. I had a friend that is like a, uh, like a site producer, like someone who goes out and looks for scouts and he was saying that part of the reason why the Atlanta movie business is getting tougher and tougher is because you used to be able to go to knock on somebody's door and say, Hey, I want to film at your house. And they would be like, yeah, sure. Right. They'd be like, well, we'll give you a $500 a day. When the going rate in Los Angeles might be like $10,000 a day, they would say, we'll give you $500

a day and we'll make sure everything's cleaned up when you're done. You know, we'll give you a new roof or we'll paint your walls or whatever. And people would be like, that's great. Fantastic. But now that it's been going on for so long here in the city, it's become very similar in nature. Yeah, they jack the price. Yeah, everybody understands the value of it. And so now they're no longer, we're no longer a bunch of dumb rednecks out here in Atlanta. Now we're Hollywood tax. Now we know exactly what it costs to rent my house. $10,000 a day, I want craft services and a hand shandy by your on-site masseuse. No ice penis for me, I want it hot. So the business has really taken a knock here in

Atlanta and there's less filming going on here than has been in the previous five or six years, which is not good for the people who work in the business. I know there's been a lot of money spent too with all the...we've built studios here too. Huge studios. Tyler Perry, huge. Coppola just built a huge thing. Coppola, he built like a hotel and a studio and, you know, yeah, the Tyler Perry studios and then that guy from Chick-fil-A, the...

Cathy. Cathy, Truett Cathy and his son, they built a huge complex that was bought by the James Bond, what is that? What did they call them? What was the studios? Anyway, James Bond, the company who makes James Bond, the production company, they bought into that big section. They built whole towns around these huge studios down south of Atlanta.

There was a guy that I knew, Ryan Millsap, he built a huge studio here. He took an old Kroger distribution center, like a grocery store distribution center. It was huge. I'm talking like hundreds of acres under roof, and he repurposed it into a studio when Kroger no longer needed the facilities and spent millions, hundreds of millions of dollars. And now they're, you know, some of them are used and some of them are going empty. So we'll see what happens in the Atlanta business. Listen, I also think that Atlanta is a good place to film for a lot of celebrities because it's cheap to get a second home here. It's a rather nice place to live. And we've been

seeing so many celebrities for so long that novelty has worn off. It's like celebrities can come here and not feel super accosted. Yeah, and I remember walking next to Owen Wilson on the Beltline like a year ago. I was like, wow. I have a story about him that I just cannot share on air. I think you shared it with me

because I think I texted you about it when I saw you. I have a wild story about Owen Wilson and I love him. I love him and I love his brothers. One of my favorite movies of all time is a movie called Bottle Rocket, which is Wes Anderson's second film. It is very much unlike most Wes Anderson films and it's a story about like some essentially college kids who think that they're like big time thieves, but they're really not big time thieves. They kind of fuck up everything that they do.

But Luke and Owen Wilson star in this movie and it is just so incredibly touching and funny and brilliantly done as all most Wes Anderson films are. And Owen Wilson is the star of this movie. He is so fucking good as this guy, Dignan, in the movie. And I used to quote this movie all the time. So I was such a big fan of Owen Wilson, and then a chance encounter, and it was wild. I mean, it was just wild. Of course, I saw that guy. I wish I could remember his name, but of course, I'm not going to be able to remember it now. I was at a Target one time, and I, uh, Lev, um, what's his name? Uh, Liev Shriver?

Is that Liev Shriver? Uh, okay. Liev Shriver was at the Target with his wife who is, uh, who's his wife? This is, this is where, you know, we might need a fact checker here in the studio. Liev Schreiber, and he is married to Taylor Nissa. He was married to Naomi Watts. That's who he was married to. So I saw him and Naomi Watts in a Target here in Atlanta one day. It was like 9.30 at night and I was getting deodorant or something. And I was half-cocked because I had been drinking at

the bar. And I stop at this Target and I'm in the grocery part and then there's Liam Treiber. And I, I could have a second take and a third take and a fourth take. And I said, hey, you're, you're that guy. And he was like, yeah, yeah, hey, nice to meet you. And so I shook his hand and then I was like, hey, you're that lady. I had no idea what their names were. And I was like, hey, you're that guy and you're that lady. And they were all just very pleasant about it. Yeah. They're regular people too. Yeah. Well, listen, when I get recognized on the streets, I have to take it in stride. I mean, it's...

You can't let it go to your head. Yeah, sometimes it's hard to be out there in public when you have a face that's known so well. When you have a face that's known by over 36 YouTube subscribers, there's a good chance that you're gonna run into somebody that's gonna recognize you. I mean, we have over 6,000 Instagram followers, 5,986 of which live in Venezuela. But if I was to go down there and allowed actually in the country, I'm sure I would be recognized everywhere on the street. The only place I've ever been recognized is Mempho. Mempho, of all places. Mempho, some bartender at Mempho. Yeah, I thought you were putting me on there,

actually, when that bartender recognized me. I thought you were putting me on, I really did. I thought Chrissy put me up to this. But no, I was famous, I was only famous for that one bartender, because I can promise you, for the rest of the weekend, no one knew who I was only famous for that one bartender because I can promise you for the rest of the weekend, no one knew who I was. That tent went empty the rest of the weekend. But we had fun, didn't we? We did have a great time, except when you guys got deathly sick at the end of it.

Oh yeah, that is right. I do remember that. Yeah, we got violently ill. Yeah, that was a lot of fun. We had a great time. We got, yeah, we got violently ill and we had to bail on the of fun. We had a great time. We got violently ill and we had to bail on the last day. I was like, I'm sorry. I think we were there for half the day and then I was like, we did. And I remember flying back to Atlanta and just not just feeling really shitty. Feeling shitty is one thing. Feeling shitty on an airplane is a different thing altogether. And you feel bad that you're getting into an airplane, getting into a plastic

tube where everybody is circulating the same air. You really do feel bad. But this is pre-masks, and no one wore masks. And what are you going to do? You want to get home. You want to go to your house. So while the best policy would have been just stay in the hotel until I felt better, then get on the plane, fuck that. I didn't have the money to stay in the hotel. So I had to go. I had to go. The plane ticket wasn't going to get changed. I had to go. Speaking of like being recognized, so I go up to this Starbucks, you know, the Starbucks. I go up there all the time. Well, everybody knows you there. That's like your cheers.

It is my cheers. I don't do a lot of drinking anymore. So when I go up to Starbucks, everybody says, hello, Brian, and it makes me feel good. And it's like one of the few interactions I have outside of the studio on a daily basis, right? I witnessed it. Yeah. When I went up there with you that day. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah. And everybody was like, Brian. Allison did too. I went at the lunch or coffee with Allison and the same thing happened. And she's like, you really weren't kidding. Like everybody does know who you are. And I'm like, yeah, I'm the guy. I show up here every morning. To be fair,

there are also lots of regulars where I do see this happening too. Like, I'm not the only guy that they say, you know, they're just good at remembering names and making people feel welcome. They gave us a special drink. They did. What was it? Like, caramel, frappiato? There was a special pumpkin spice something. Something that has foam. Foam. And then I asked for a cup of the foam and she said, no, I'm not allowed to do that. And I was like, even for Brian? Even for Brian?

For Brian. Not for me? Yeah. So, I go up there the other day and there's this girl. But by the way, I have never been asked, I have never said what I do for a living. Never, right? So it's my little place, it's my little safe house, I don't have to talk to anybody about what I do, I don't have to worry that anyone has heard what I've said on the commercial break. Smells good when you walk in.

Smells good. People are so friendly. Yeah, they know exactly what I want, the drink is usually ready. The usual? That's right, the usual? Yes, get me highly caffeinated so I get anxious and then go on air. Please, that's what I want. the drink is usually ready. The usual? That's right. The usual? Yes. Get me highly caffeinated so I get anxious and then go on in. Please.

That's what I want. Whatever that is. Give me that. So it's my little, it's like a little bubble. I don't have to worry about it. Like we go to this, you know, event at one of the schools the other night and I very much worry that there's, that because our information is available to most of the parents. Like, there was an email sent around a couple of weeks ago, and the email accidentally revealed,

like, cc'd everybody instead of bcc-ing everybody. And so, what's the first thing that you do? You Google everybody's extension. Like, oh, he works at axcom.com. What's axcom.com, right? He works at tiddlywinks.org. Let me see what that is, right? It's just one of those things that I think everybody gets curious about and you go start stalking people. That's what we do in the day of the internet. Fuck you. Okay. So that sounded like a 10 pound bomb went off and that was just my phone dropping on the floor. They're heavier than you think.

I know. Well, it's also this hollow table that picks up any noise in the entire house. So, but I also know that this works both ways. So now I know, not only and I know that they probably did their research before we even got to the school, that people are just, whatever, they're nosy. But then I also know that now that everybody's email extension

has been sent out there, that probably a good chunk of the parents understand who we are, what we do. So I go there and I feel a little bit uncomfortable. It's the TCB one? Yeah, don't ask me. Don't ask me. Don't ask me. It was a mistake to leave that one, to give that one in the first place, but I did. I didn't think it was going to go out public. I didn't think it was going to go out public and if the administrators of the school know, well, then they know, whatever. But all the parents... Anyway. Get your secrets out.

Yes. So now my bubble is burst. Now I don't feel... I quickly move through conversations. I move from one parent to the next, so I don't have to answer any questions. You know, I know how to do this dance. You do a podcast? Yes. Hey, I noticed that you do a podcast. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, not me. No, that was a long time ago. My twin brother does the podcast.

I work for the podcast. I'm actually the guy who's telling him not to say all that crazy shit. So that's not my bubble, but my bubble is over at the Starbucks. So I go in the other day, and I'm having just a light conversation about television shows, a subject that comes up, right? That's something you talk about with strangers. Television shows comes up, and one of the girls behind the counter goes, you know what I love? You know, I'm watching, I'm watching Severance. You ever seen it? I go, oh, that gets me started, right? I'm like, oh, I love Severance.

I love Severance, it's so great, so good. And I go, I actually had a chance to do some work for the New Severance podcast, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So, I don't think much of it, it's just conversation. I don't say what I do, I'm not even really thinking about what I'm saying, I just said that I was excited to do some work with the Severance podcast. So, then this morning I go in there, same young lady, and I think that she may have caught on to what's going on because of what I said. And so now I feel like my bubble has burst a little bit. I'm no longer safe in this Starbucks, so I'm going to have to find a different coffee shop to go to. I'm going to leave everybody at that coffee shop because I don't want anybody at the next coffee shop to know what I'm doing. Do you know what I'm saying, Chrissy?

I am literally embarrassed of what we do here. No, just embrace it. Just embrace it. I embrace it and I'm embarrassed. I know. I embrace it when I'm not talking to people, but when I'm talking to people, I'm embarrassed. I know. It's a hard thing to get over.

I know we've touched on this, you know, for, I don't know, we probably had this conversation 10 episodes, but I'm visiting it again because every time one of these things happens, then I start to feel that sense of like, how exactly do I tell someone what I do where they won't know the name of the show so they can never hear about all of the shenanigans I have decided to yap about on this silly fucking show. How do I do that? It's clear I'm never getting another job. I get that part.

I'm okay with that. I've embraced that part. I'm not getting another job unless I create that job for myself, where even I will be suspicious of my own resume. Well, I don't know. I don't know if I want this guy as my CEO. I know it's my company and I'm hiring myself, but I don't know if I want myself working for myself. You know what I'm saying? Like Severance, I think I need to be severed. I think I need to have two different employees.

But there's this sense of, I don't know, disgust about everything that I've done here on the commercial break. I'm feeling kind of a clem. I'm feeling a bit of a clem. I have to say, I was at a party on Saturday night with someone that we both know, you know, it was a birthday, and her friend was introduced to me. And of course, it always comes around, what do you do? And you know, Jeff Pipeson, he's proud. Yeah. He is. Shut up, Jeff!

Doesn't Astrid do the same thing sometimes? Well, she knows that I feel a certain way. I feel a certain way. I feel a certain way. pipes and he's proud. Yeah. He is. Shut up, Jeff! Doesn't Astra do the same thing sometimes? Well, she knows that I feel a certain way. Okay. And so she is also taking your and like Jeff's road. She's like, we should be proud of it. Yeah. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You should feel good about what you're doing. And I'm like talking talking about ice penis? Is that really what you want me to feel good about? She was like, I really want to listen to the show, you know, that everybody says the same thing. Yes, of course.

Let me check it out. And that's when I start backpedaling. Yeah, me too. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I don't exactly know where to find it. Give me your number and I'll text you how you find that. So she subscribes and she's like, what is the one to start off with? And I'm like a deer in headlights. It's like not ice penis. Which one? I was like, this is actually a good exercise for me to have one in my back pocket that we can at least feel good. You know what? This is a good idea. This is a good idea that you and I should do an absolutely

in this tone of voice episode where we just talk about clean, where we talk about the benefits of therapy. That's what we should do, the benefits of therapy. We should do it like a life coaching episode. Life coach. Listen, text me, 2124333822. If you would be okay if we just put out one episode where Chrissy and I can point to that episode for anyone, because if we can make it boring enough and if it can just be enough platitudes and, you know.

Yeah, where somebody's like, oh, okay, well, not for me. Same shit I hear from every other podcaster, right? Life coaching shit. be enough platitudes and you know. Yeah, where somebody's like, oh okay, well not for me. Same shit I hear from every other podcaster, right? Life coaching shit. If we could just do one episode, if you actually, not even one episode, just give us 30 minutes because no one makes it past minute number 10 when you're talking about platitudes. Do you know what I'm saying? Just let me rehash some old Jay Shetty shit. I'll put it out here. And that way, Chrissy and I can say, you know what you should start off with? To start with that one.

Yeah. Start off with holding space. It's the name of the episode, episode number 333. It's holding space. It's a great representation of what we do here. And I'll be like, well, Chrissy, I was fighting with my inner child this morning. I had a bad dream. And I had to get up and I really had to hold space for myself. I had to take a walk and tell myself that my inner child is okay and just keep going, things will get better and we'll just keep on going like that. Forgive yourself. Let's take a phone call from a listener and then I'll be the listener we take a phone call from, I'll change my voice and I'll be like, I love you guys. You've been so,

you've helped me out in so many situations. Thank God you're here. I like this idea. Yeah, I do too. All right, we're going to have to do this. Sorry. It's because we're embarrassed of what we do. We're not embarrassed of you, the listener. We're embarrassed for ourselves. We're thankful for you. Yeah, we're thankful for you. We want you to stick around. It's the other people we worry about. It's the people at Starbucks that

I'm worried about, really. Yeah, it's the showpiece. Yeah. Somebody's on to me. I feel it. I can sense it. I just got a different look today. And I was like, uh-oh. What did I say? What did I do? You also got to understand, after 800 hours of this fucking show sometimes you're gonna say things that maybe hard yeah, that you just don't mean you just like you're just saying it to say it and Yeah, okay. All right. So episode the episode called holding space your you download it, but you're allowed to not listen to it Okay, it's gonna be like a 35 minute show where Chrissy and I are gonna be really low-key I'm gonna change the opening music to some frilly corporate bullshit that I find on some music site. And then we're just going to talk lightly for 35 minutes about your inner child. I think it's needed.

Yeah. And then we're going to say, oh, listen, it's about friendship. Take a listen to all this. When people ask me what the podcast is about, I go, it's about friendship. That's what I say. I still say the old, it's like, I was sitting in a bar talking about stuff we always did, but on air now. Yeah, ice penis.

Ice penis. I just can't get over saying, I don't know, ice penis sounds good to me. I like it. I like ice penis. Okay, listen to the ice penis episode, skip the holding space episode. All right, let's do this. Let's take a break. When we get back, I got a good one for you today. I think that we, you know, they say that imitation is the highest form of flattery. I think we have been imitated and imitated by someone we have imitated many times. We're about to go inception.

All right, and we're back. I was just reading that Limp Bizkit had sued Universal claiming that they had never received any royalties ever for the music that they produced. And that they withheld

royalties in the hundreds of millions of dollars. And so Limp Bizkit wants out of their contract so that they can go sell their music independently or whatever they want to do with it. And then the Universal Music filed a motion to dismiss and then the judge partially dismissed the lawsuit. So that's crazy. I mean, I don't, there's nothing, Limp Bizkit is not my thing, never was my thing.

But I do have to say this, is that Limp Bizkit probably sold a couple albums. Yeah, how are they? Or hundreds of millions, I I mean not hundreds, they probably made hundreds of millions of dollars in albums. Well back in the day, for sure, how is this coming out now? Well I guess, you know, they did some, I don't know, some kind of accounting and said, hey, where's all the money, right? And that Universal Music just never paid them any royalties.

I find that hard to believe. Like after 30 years, all of a sudden you realize the royalties are missing. You didn't think that check would show up sooner than that? Before now. Yeah. And maybe that's part, I don't know why the judge granted the dismissal, but maybe that's part of it. Anyway, the music business is a hot fucking mess. You know who else is a hot fucking mess? John Anthony. Lifestyle's a hot fucking mess. Now here, follow the bouncing ball if you would please, children.

Chrissy and I found Zon Perignon, Zon Perignon, whatever his name is, Perignon, Perignon. Like Dom Perignon? Yeah, he's part Italian, part Asian. Don Perignon. We found him because of the 21 Convention, a place where we have found a lot of pickup artists and we decided that we're just going to review some of the content that's going on at the 21 convention, which is always a hoot and always just a bunch of, yeah, it's always a good time. It's always a bunch of Yahoo's talking about Yahoo shit, trying to convince other guys, a few in the audience that they too can get laid at any moment if they just follow these

10 steps. Never giving any information that would clearly lead to you getting in an actual relationship. It's like, this is how not to get into a relationship is usually how it goes. So, you know, if you listen to the commercial break, you know. So, we find Zahn in this buried video in the 21 convention, and we have also done videos about John Anthony and John Anthony Lifestyle, who is another pickup artist who all of a sudden has decided he is going to break down pickup artist videos too. So get this, John Anthony Lifestyle pickup artist breaking down Zan Perignon's pickup artist videos.

The coincidental thing is just how closely the two of us have broken down those videos together. The exact same video within two weeks of each other and ours was first. Now, I have a suspicion, a suspicion, like I do about a lot of things, and I'm probably wrong about all of them. But I have been right about a couple. I do have a suspicion that John may know that we have broken down his videos and he may have been keeping an eye on our videos. And now he decided that since we broke down the Zon video, it was fit for King, just like him, to break down also. So now I present to you, if you followed this bouncing ball, the commercial break, breaking down John Anthony lifestyle, breaking down

Zan Perignon in this style of the commercial break. We are in the inception children. Here we go. Here we go. Wow, he is really up to his game. Yeah, his intro is trash, but it's better than when we first started doing it. Oh yeah, he definitely is up to his game. Yeah, his intro's trash. But it's better than when we first started doing it. Oh yeah, he definitely upped his intro.

He definitely upped his intro. He is now like a full podcaster. He's got the same microphones we do. He's got the same microphone stands we do. He's breaking down the same videos we are. Like you said, imitation is the best form of flattery. But the difference is, Jon has about 250,000 more subscribers than we have, so good. So you, one on us, John.

You have one up on us. What's up, guys? John Anthony here from John Anthony Lifestyle. In today's video, we're going to be reacting to- A picture. I love how he's in a studio and the studio, the huge picture behind him that's in Folvore is just some woman's naked ass. Lovely.

From the back, yeah. You know what you're getting with is John. Dan Parion, the masculine energy of men who women adore. This is a clip from his talk at the 21 Convention, which is a failing convention that is now ending. It's a failing convention. We talked about the same thing. Anthony Johnson's fucking insecure loser

is putting an end to that convention. There will be no more good riddance. Okay, when I spoke there in 2021, there were more. Oh, when I spoke there in 2021, good riddance. Well, to be fair, there's a few conventions I've spoken at too, where I clearly didn't want to be a part of it. Speakers than attendees, you can believe that.

I can believe that. Oh, we can believe it. Yes, I believe it. Yes, we know. They never pan to the audience. That's right. They don't, sometimes they'll get a couple of the heads in the front row. Yeah.

And it's clear that there are many empty seats. So powerful. I tried to write about the energy of men who women adore. They get a free pass. I tried to write about what it is, what do they have, what is the qualities that they have, what is the spirit that... The qualities that... Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

Stop to it. What are these qualities? Give them to me. It's unparalleled. Man has that women adore. And you know, if you start from... What's that? That's all he said.

That's all he said. He goes light touch here. We go heavy touch. He goes like it's two different styles here Which is a center of gravity as a man here. I don't anything about chakras, but if you do imagine your Center whatever chest I remember this video But there's something right here but there's something right here, and there's something right here. I got an indigestion. Our chakra.

Here comes the woo woo. You start from an energy force from here as a man, okay? This is incredibly important. What's up? Ha ha ha ha ha. John. John. John, you are doing the exact same thing. Wrapping, like telling every other PUA that their PUA style is bad, but yours is any better

is certainly the kettle calling the pot black for sure. But you, you'd like throwing the entire baby out with the bathwater here, because largely your shit is based on the same fucking tired, you know, semi-pseudo-scientific bullshit that every pickup artist uses. And you claim that you've bedded 4,000 women by using your system, quote unquote, which is to rotate in and out 17 women at any given night, which is horse shit, unless you're paying for them, which we figured out you were. It's like a Tyler Durden seminar. Hey, Owen Cook. All right, guys, so you're going to have this little center here, okay?

This is where all your powers drive, okay, guys? Hi, I'm John, I'm from Lifestyle. I'll be here all week. Why did he turn it to black and white? I don't know. It's an interesting editing choice, right? Yeah. Start from here like this.

Your energy as a man moves out into the world from here. And it goes up and out. It goes like this. Up and out, just like puke. Up and out. Just like the... Just like the sad, searing acids in your stomach when you have bad diarrhea.

Up and out, Chris, up and out. Just like your Gs, up and out. Oh, the amount of fucking woo woo nonsense bullshit that goes around the community is astounding. Right, look at this guy with his little fucking belt and his little bracelets here and his rings. The energy starts here and it goes out like this. Okay guys, make sure you write that down. It sounds like the fucking dork from the Fearless Man with Brian Begin.

He sounds like that guy too. He's like, yeah, you guys are going to have this little energy inside you. It's like, Jesus Christ. We'll put that video on the end screen by the way,, in case you wanna check that out and laugh your ass off. Wow, this guy's got a little comedy routine falling flat at every turn. Yeah. It's really bad.

It's a beautiful masculine energy. This is you being charming, being humorous, being inviting, being gracious. This is you saying, would you like some more wine? This is you saying, hey, can I get you a cold for you? This is you telling a joke. And this is you, hey guys, nice to meet you. This is a great, beautiful, upper energy masculine beauty.

I guess breaking down the videos consists of him laughing and everything that Zan says. Yeah, it is. Going to black and white. Yeah, going to black and white for effect. Anytime you put black and white on a laugh, you know you're getting a laugh, Chrissy. Hey, Marco to black and white for effect. Anytime you put black and white on a laugh, you know you're getting a laugh, Chrissy.

Hey, Marco, our video editor, Marco, black and white, here. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. That down. This is you asking her if she wants more wine or if you can hang her coat up in your great masculine beauty. See, this is the problem with the vast majority of advice on dating.

Here comes a token of knowledge. What the fuck are you talking about? Let's be real here. What the fuck is he talking about? How would this translate into getting better with girls or running a better interaction? Okay, I'm in the interaction. Zan Perrion told me that it all comes from here. And so I'm just going to let it all flow. The great masculine energy, the beauty, the nice things. It's woo woo nonsense. It's like feel good, mental. What is that good fuck?

Did he say anything meaningful there? No. Did you hear anything that made any sense there? No. Was there one bit of wisdom that he gave that Zahn Perignon didn't? At least Zan's trying. Like when you listen to this, you're like, oh, cool.

What do you say about masturbation? I don't know. He says it's, I don't know. I'm already lost here. I don't know why we're breaking down this video in this manner. No, I don't know why he's breaking down this video in this manner. Harm, empathy, sympathy, humor, all these beautiful qualities of man. Comes from here and moves on to the world.

Imagine you're on a job interview. Everything about you is high. You're sitting across the table from the interview. Yes, I did. Imagine you're at a job interview. Raging hard on. You got a hot girl behind the desk, and you let out, you go up and out, up and out. Yes.

Don't show her your boner, don't show her your boner, don't show her your boner. Listen, even your eye contact is high. You can feel it, right? You're like lifting, you're straight up as an arrow like this, you're like, yes, and yeah, and now I did this and yeah, and everything is high energy and it's a beautiful energy, it's a beautiful masculine energy. He does it every time. He does a beautiful masculine energy. Yeah. You're on it. He does it every time.

He does it every time. He laughs. I know this guy, this podcaster, who literally cut his laugh, and he'll drop it into his own show like a laugh track. I know what he's doing. I know he's doing it. I know for sure he's doing it. And it cracks me up every time.

I'm like, you're putting your own laugh track Which is yourself into your own show. It's kind of weird, bro job interview So son tell me about some of your past roles at past companies. Okay My eye contact is high. Whatever that means. My energy is high beautiful masculine Woo, bullshit call a spade a spade here. What the fuck is he talking about? Wow, there is like he's he's out for his on he's out for John But the amount of knowledge that we are gaining just by what just by us breaking down John Anthony Breaking down Zahn Parian breaking down how you get a woman is

unbelievable Michael Anthony, Anthony, John Anthony, Michael Anthony. Danielle Pletka Michael Anthony Hall. Michael Anthony Hall. Oh, wait, isn't Michael Anthony from Van Halen? Isn't that the bassist from Van Halen? Danielle Pletka I don't know. Michael Anthony Am I right about that? I think I'm right about that. Anyway, like, the amount of knowledge that we are getting from John Anthony, he clearly has...

Danielle Pletka Yeah, he's not providing any added value. Michael Anthony He's not providing shit here. He's just laughing at Zahn. Which is what we did, but we are not claiming to be the dating coaches. Yeah, we're actually talking about what Zahn is saying. Yeah, we're not the dating coaches. That's right. Okay. Now imagine from the same center of gravity here, your same heart originating place.

Vaughn, it is funny. From the same place where all your blood goes a couple times a minute. From that heart place, that heart thing. There's an equal counterbalancing energy that is necessary to be a man. Yin and Yang, bros. This is an energy that goes down. I remember this. Oh yeah. It's called taking a shit.

Him in Brazil, that's right. He had the tag team thing of the girl at the mall. He brought a girl home from like, I don't know. It was like one of those kiosks in the mall. It was a kiosk in the mall. Like a get your ear pierced here kind of thing. And he asked her if she wanted to come over to like, but he used Brazil.

It vibrates. It rolls across the floor like a smoke machine just waiting to pounce on any pussy that comes our way. You have energy bros coming from your center of gravity, going down into the floor and you can feel it vibrating. Can you imagine guys in the crowd like... I'm funny. I am gonna laugh a minute.

Taking notes on this fucking dog shit. Does he have a part shaved into the head? Yeah, he's got a part shaved into the head. That's a new thing the kids are doing. Shaving a line into your head because the part in your hair hasn't quite matured. The thing about it is lower. Your voice is lower, everything's lower.

This is your sexual desire. Ooh. Which in the West is a bad thing. Toxic. You rapist. Whoa! Hey, settle down, Zan. Right?

Now he's gonna make a great joke. Am I right? Am I right? Everybody's a rapist when they've got that lower penis energy. This is you wanting to bend the world over. This is you seeing a heart-shaped ass. I like this Zan, what are you teaching us? Okay, I'm on John and I'm Johnny What exactly are you teaching us?

To just grab it. Do you want to just bend it over to thrust right into her? What are you talking about like that? That's your it's and, and I'll tell you this, it's, it's given to you by God. Ah! Ha ha ha ha ha. Now, not only have we learned that there's energy that comes up and is beautiful, but there's energy that goes down and causes vibrations.

And it's given to you by God. Now you're much better off. You fail. God, women, men, society, everything, when you like block off that energy, which we all do, our Western society has been taught. Well, yeah, if you're going to block off that attacky nature that men have to like grab a woman's apple ass, John, you're not teaching these guys anything that they really need to know. I mean, I agree with John Anthony here. This is all a little woo woo bullshit, right? Your energy, your thrusting energy,

is not getting you any closer to a solid relationship with a woman. That's not going to happen. But I promise you, promise you that John Anthony Lifestyle's 30-minute strategy coaching call is also not going to get you any closer to getting laid. This is all horseshit.

Bye And back here with John Anthony lifestyle breaking down Zanperion the commercial break doing the same thing to John I think it's a little confusing but try and keep up. We've already broken down this on paring on video It's somewhere I forgot oh, the thrusting in nature of man is the name of the episode, now I remember it. Probably in the 300s, I think it's the first video we did of Zahn.

I think we did a better job than John Anthony did because all John Anthony seems to be doing is just laughing at Zahn and pitching his own strategy course. Eyes front, respectful, don't have any kind of this sexual energy at all, and it's wrong. It's wrong. You want to embrace that sexual energy, otherwise you've failed God, according to Zan Periyan. What do you say, John Anthony, and what's your strategy? What say you?

Yeah, what say you, PUA man? Sexual energy that moves onto the, it's kind of like bass that flows on the floor, boom, boom, boom. And women can feel it. They can feel it when there's an energy of a man who has that sexual vibration that floats on the floor. But here's the thing. Dragging on the floor.

Dragging on the floor. Your dick just dragging on the floor. Ice penis if you don't mind. Yes, yes. See what happened when that guy tried to get down on the floor with his energy? He got stuck on the cement and by his poor penis. Yes. And here's the key.

You need both. Both energies. If you're only this upper energy guy, which all the dating advice out there, all the mainstream media, how to be more humorous. Mainstream media? What is mainstream media getting in on the PUA game? How to take Toastmasters, how to be tell a joke, how to be more tell stories. Toastmasters?

What is it, 1962? Toastmasters. Actually, I had a friend that just completed a Toastmasters course. Yeah, it's supposed to be good. Yeah, it teaches you how to speak in front of people without... Teaches you how to give a toast without totally flipping your fucking balls. In storytelling, how to be more interesting, how to be... Take a girl on a date is all of the instruction for men is how to be more of this nice guy upper energy.

If you're only upper energy, when you say to a girl, hey, I like you, would you like to go for coffee? She says, I have a boyfriend. You're top heavy and you fall over. You fall over. Humpty Dumpty. Humpty Dumpty had a big fall. Humpty Dumpty fell on his balls. Brr, brr.

No, I didn't mean anything by it. You didn't mean it. Humpty Dumpty had a big fall. Humpty Dumpty forgot he had balls. Anything by it? He didn't, you, I have a boyfriend. Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know he had a boyfriend. You're sorry because she had a boyfriend?

You're sorry? You tried to verbally sexually assault a woman with her apple ass? Zon's trying to get hard. Yeah. And not in that way, but... I get it. He's trying to be tough. I think Zon's been trying to get hard for a long time.

Yeah. Why am I so soft in the middle now? Okay, okay, I respect that and I'm doing my job as a man. So this upper energy is what's being taught. This is why we have a generation of nice guys. So his upper energy is code for platonic nice guy, I guess. And his lower energy, which was given to us by God, is like embracing the fact that you like girls and you're attracted to girls and sexualizing, I guess.

It's just such a dumb way to like try to paint this stuff. Imagine you're a guy and you're trying to fucking follow this. You're like, okay, my top energy is... Black and white. Here we go. Black and white for effect. Used by all the great filmmakers, I might want to remind you. For Francis Ford Coppola. Scorsese. Scorsese, Spielberg, John Anthony lifestyle.

In Toastmasters. And I need to embrace my lower energy that's going down, that the girls feel like vibrations and bass. It's insane. Like I've wasted so much of my adult life here looking at these gurus and quotes, okay, and pointing out how retarded everything they're saying happens to be. Okay. You are one of these human beings. quotes, okay, and pointing out how retarded everything they're saying happens to be. Okay, if you- You are one of these human beings. We also have wasted a lot of our life watching you try and convince us that you can pull any girl in the world, when in fact, the uglier secret might be that you're paying some of

them. Watch this, like without a critical mind, you're like, oh cool, like there's these diverging energies and they come together and in harmony and symbiosis. I think he keeps dropping in his own laugh track. I think so too actually. I was just gonna say the same thing. I think there is a laugh track. Yeah, and when he does it, there's always that, you know, he's always panning in on himself. Why do we need to see you close up laughing? Marco, get this shot. Now, just drop that in whenever I say something funny. Thanks. And the key to getting girls is just to embrace that lower energy more.

Like, what the fuck is he talking about? In your basement suite playing World of Warcraft, not going out and meeting girls, or you're being taught upper energy things, which are good things, but if they don't have the counterbalance of that beautiful lower thrusting energy. Thrusting energy. Beautiful, lower thrusting energy. Beautiful, lowing thrusting energy. Don't you love it, Chrissy, when some strange man with a beer belly comes up. And he's dragging his balls down the floor.

Yes, dragging his dick across the floor, his old man Harry T's just coming out the bottom of his pant leg and he starts banging his hip on your ass. The spanking energy, if you don't have that. You need the thrusting and spanking energy, bros. God is depending on you. Then you're a nice guy. Women are dating nice guys and men are learning, okay, how to go depending on you. Then you're a nice guy. Women are dating nice guys and men are learning, okay, how to go down on a woman, how to hurt her

anatomy. They're reading all these books. I can almost hear the gears grinding inside of John Anthony's head. I can, it's like I look at him and I just hear kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk John or Zon? Both. Both. Yeah. I think Zon, at least he's a good bullshitter, right? He's got a flow. He's got something going on up there. I don't agree with any of it, but he's got something going on up there. He knows how to talk, right? John just laughs.

You can see he's mouth breathing. He's trying to figure something out. Programs and how to please a woman, how to massage her with the right oils and candles for the right... They're pleasing women. And women say, I want that guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, sign me up. No, you don't. You don't want that guy. Guy goes down to you for 45 minutes. You can get yourself off in two minutes with your fingers.

Well, thanks for pointing that out. Now none of us have a chance, Zahn! Listen, every woman already knows this, Zahn. Some may enjoy having a sweaty, hairy man on top of them. Some may just do it because that's part of the game. Some say, I occasionally enjoy having sex with a man. They, everybody knows, and men too, that it's much easier to get yourself off than have somebody else do it.

But occasionally it's fun to make it a two-player game. It's just like Nintendo Switch. Occasionally it's fun to do a two-player game. But it's nice, it feels good, it's cool. Now he's trying to make the argument that women don't enjoy oral sex because they can cum faster with their fingers. Who told them that one?

God? Do you have no... I know that after having bedded 4,000 women across the world, that mouth of yours is probably pretty good at going down on women. Oh, yeah. Nothing in... Yeah. You ever had... Yeah, the other week I cleaned out my disposal and in the P-trap, there was just like this weird smelly gook. Yeah, I imagine that's what's on Jan Anthony's beard. And that makes you think, this guy's incredible.

Try to follow this. Like, what the fuck is he talking about? Seriously, it's like pure nonsense. Oh, there it is, Don. There it is. Do they have painted nails? Might have painted nails too. These are all the gurus that everyone has to rely upon.

We've got Ross Jeffries pushing speed seduction and neurolinguistic. We haven't done Ross. Oh, we haven't done Ross. Oh, thanks for cluelessing it, cluing us in here. I mean, otherwise known as NLP. And then going on a podcast and admitting that he's below 100 lay count, okay? And guys are like trying to memorize these things. Lay count.

100 lay count? What in the world? What in the world? You call it a lay count? I think it's called a body count, first of all. I think that's the nomenclature all the kids are using. But second of all, under a hundred, I'd love to be over four. You know what I'm saying? Like, that doesn't matter. What does that matter? Oh my God.

Little different routines, these language patterns. Oh, I'm going to, you know, make her addicted to my cock with my little fancy language patterns. No, you'm going to make her addicted to my cock with my little fancy language patterns. No, you're not. You're not going to do it by embracing it. I'm addicted to my cock. We've got to see this guy. Ross Jeffries. Ross Jeffries. Write that down. Let's make sure we get a note. Where's the notebook?

I think we need the notebook back. We need the notebook for sure. Where is that? I don't know, but I think we need it because, you know, we need it. Now we need to just... Ross Jeffries. Well, he just referenced something about the NFP or... NLP. NLP.

I have heard of this. The NLP. Oh, we did. Somebody else referenced that. Someone else put this. Neural language processing or something like that. Yeah. This dichotomous energy as well.

The way you're going to start banging a lot of chicks or at least having a lot of hot girl options to turn into a girlfriend or to put on rotation is by learning how to text, learning how to set up your online profile, learning how to run a date, getting good at bringing most girls you take out on a date back home. Hey, I'm going to go run a date real quick. Hey, I'm going to go run a date real quick. Hey, you don't mind if I practice getting good at texting with you, do you? I just gotta do a couple of practice texts.

I gotta put in the reps. I got my 30 minute strategy call in a few minutes. Can I? Hey, digpick! Digpick! Get good at texting. Get good at texting? What are you talking about?
