I thought I was ready to be back. I thought I was stronger than this, but obviously I'm not. I want to go home. On this episode of the commercial break, There's a montage of me and my friends getting together for the Lord and doing multiple rents. Massing breaks with our heads, With our hands, with our heads, with our penises, And then we kick people in the gut, and that's how we show our love for the Lord.

But ya! Hahahaha! Broken rib one and two! Aya! The next episode of the commercial break starts now. Ah, yeah, Kaz again! Welcome back to the commercial break! I'm Brian Green, this is my dear friend and amazing co-host, Kristen Joy, hopefully, best of you, Kristen!

And best of you out there on the podcast universe! Woo! Woo! You get a universe, and you get a universe, and you get a universe! Man, I wish more people were tuned into the podcast universe, but I think we're lucky just to have the few listeners we have. Yes. Because there's some true, true,isama going on in the podcast.

Trisama. What do you mean? That people not being paid and other people being lied to. Here's the problem. Podcasting has been kind of a niche industry for a long time. During the pandemic it became not a niche industry and billions of dollars of advertising basically poured in over the last five or six years. As well as many, many, many new podcasts. And all of them looking, most of them looking to get in on the gold rush, like us, on the

gold rush. We seem to be five feet from gold. We're like those. You know, like when you get the panhand in Georgia. That's right, you go up to the North Georgia, you pay $25 to grab a pan and have some guy with a long beard. Like, you know, that guy from mountain monster hook. Yeah Yeah, you have a hook is up there tuck and fucking all those guys. They're up there

And like hey or take a pan grab some mudge I get around for three and a half hours and there don't you see it's a flake of gold now you can go right there and Sell that flake of gold or you put it in a nice little bottle of oil or water whatever it is That costs an extra twenty25. Like rose water. Yeah, like what do they call that? Mountain water? Yeah, no, no, no, no, no. Creek, creek, creek, creek water. Creek water. Down to the creek. You can go down to the creek, get yourself some water. That glass vials, $25. You can either put crystal meth in it or your brand new flake of fools gold Well, that's fools gold son. I'm sorry. That's not the real stuff I know the entire line of people all have fools gold. Well, it didn't get today, but that's the life of a gold miner

Because if you really had gold there you wouldn't be selling hands for $25 I Because if you really had gold there you wouldn't be selling hands for $25 I figured that out day one Yeah, but hey, it's a right-of-passage and everybody everybody probably has done it I mean, it's a fun little activity with kids. Yeah, you go and you find a little yeah It's a total ripoff because then you go in and try and sell the gold and they're like well seven cents where the gold You're like a gold is that $70 dollars? I'll parlay it. Yeah, I like to double down Can I keep going? I'll tell you what instead of $70 let me get three extra pans. Let it ride a little ride

I'm gonna be out there with three pants shaking all night long You can also buy boi and peanuts. Yeah, boi and peanuts A cracker-barreled bumper sticker You could also buy boiled peanuts. Yeah, boiled peanuts. A cracker-barreled bumper sticker. Or another pan of gold. What do you want, son? It's like, then you go to the, like, the Chucky Cheese Checkout Center, where they have dollar toys all made in China. And you can get one of those.

Or, son, you can get a Pikachu stuffed animal. I don't want the Pikachu. I want more gold. That's what I want. My great great great great great grandfather found a vein of gold 70 feet wide. And I successfully wasted all of my inheritance on this here. Sh, operation, with a running stream of water right through it, from the hose. If you're from the south, you know these places. You know these places, you bend to these places. And listen, fat, no, I don't hate the player.

I just don't like the game. I'm not interested. Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake. I don't want to work for my money. I'm buying my gold from Ed McMahon. Is he selling gold too? What's going on there? Probably.

So, you know, Chrissy and I just got back from the extended vacation. I went to Spain. That's where I went, asked her to ask her as family there. And we went to go see that family because I've had a six children in the last sense of life. Right, everybody's dying to get it. If we got the kids baptized over there.

I know, not that. Yeah, if you listen to the commercial break, you can, you know how much I believe in baptism, but you know, it's important. It's important. You make a concession. I also don't mind it. My personal opinion is that the story of Jesus Christ,

whether true or not true, is an amazing story of a very empathetic and compassionate man. The exact opposite of what the children, the father of these children, are getting baptized for. So, I want someone to know, have good news in their life, you know what I'm saying? And it doesn't bother me one bit, that they get baptized, because if, you know, everyone except the people who are baptized get slaughtered in some big armageddon, well, at least they're safe. Don't say won't get to.

Yeah, don't say won't get to. Now you make me break out, don't take Chrissy. Like a monkey. Hey, God, I don't believe people. Why is this old man born water on my head? He's got a bone. Did anybody notice? He's got a bone.

No, no, no. I know. The old man has got a bone. In this beautiful ceremony. But anyway, so we went to Spain and there's a number of reasons. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I personally like that. You do? Yeah. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it.

I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it.

I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. But it's just not, but that presents another problem, getting drunk presents another issue, which is I still have the 12 children. A nap?

Well, that's why they drink the wine. You do the long meal. Yeah. Then you're full and a little drunk. So you take a siesta and then get back up and continue the rest of the evening. Here's the difference between the Spaniards and the Irish, Brian Green.

Is that the Spaniards go and have one glass of wine with lunch and And gives them... Italians do the same thing. Yeah, and now their bellies are full of whatever, you know, I'd be here to co-ham or you know, tortilla or whatever they're eating. And they then go and they take a little siesta. Brian would have 18 bud lights and be searching for the cocaine dealer on the street, arrested by the Spanish authorities for buying cocaine from an undercover officer.

That's the problem. The best you don't drink. It's best that I don't drink. And then I have children and they all want something from me at all times. So I just. Yeah, to be always fun. Good luck getting 12 children having a nap

at the same time. That's true. Yeah, never happens. That was days along. But so we went to this one of these two hour meals. We went to one of these two hour meals and this beautiful restaurant in Madrid. And when we leave the restaurant,

there was a group of girls who was sitting downstairs. We were upstairs, they were sitting downstairs. In the entire time, you could hear every, I'd say every five minutes, you would hear this. What were they saying? I wrote it down here, oh. Desperada ole ole ole ole ole ole ole. Desperada ole ole.

Which basically means, and I think I'm saying the word, desperada? Yes. No, desparida, desparida. And what they're saying is, it's your last day of being single. It's your last day of being single. It's your last day of freedom. No, okay.

It was a little bit of a hidden party. It was a hen party. And the hen parties were everywhere in Madrid. Really? Yes, everywhere you went, there was a... It was like in the Nashville of... It really was. It was Madrid, Mallorca.

The summer is apparently wedding season over there because everybody's getting married and everybody's out on the streets and they dress up in costumes and they're all dressed the same and it's obvious who's getting married because they're being, you know, they've got a crown around and shots

and you're the whole nine year. So we walk out of this restaurant and in front of us there's this, I have a video of it, but I would say, but none of the masks to be on the commercial break, so I'll leave it alone, but 15 to 20 girls, young in their 20s, all dressed in these white outfits and, you know,

oh, le, oh, le, oh, le, oh, le. And what they would do is they would run up, they would surround a guy, and then they would have their drinks in their hand, and they would go, you know, just follow me down, oh, le, oh, le, oh, le, oh, le, oh, le. That's what they would do. They would find a guy.

Yeah, they would find a willing participant. They would surround him. Everybody be jumping up and down and they'd be saying, o le o le o le o le. And would the guy join in? The guy would join in. Okay. I saw this happen because they were walking

in the same direction we were going and they were ahead of us like a hundred feet. And so I would watch this happen over and over again, probably three or four times with guys. So then at one point, we're walking and the girls stop in front of the store, right? And all the sudden, like lasers, one of the girls sees me walking down the street.

And she's like, I got away from that Brian. She's like, that's my knee down, oh, that's all that. And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you know, I'm just like, I'm just laughing,

I'm trying to stay away. And I can see, ask her, and she's like, don't you even no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Le, ole. No, Le. No, Le, no, Le. No, Le. You want to do ole, you get no, Le. You know what I'm saying? Ha. No, Le, no, Le, no, Le. I'm buying a gate, no, Le, no, Le. Ah. Oh, God.

You could see. Astrid. And we were with another couple of friends of ours. And you can see the girl on the other couple. And she was like, he does this. I swear to a fucking God. If he does this, I swear to a fucking God. And the other guy would stay in the next of me. He's see the girl on the other couple and she was like, he does this. I swear to God. If he does this, I swear to God. And the other guy was standing next to me. He's like, don't do it. Don't get engaged. Don't look at their eyes. Don't look at their eyes.

Look away. Look away. Look away. And so I was like, I just kind of like laughed. I was like doing this little dance. And the group was starting to approach me. And then I turned around and walked the other way. I couldn't do it. I was so concerned. Yeah, I jump into the ocean. I'm picturing at the edge of the sea walking in my yorko on this beautiful blossom. Yeah. In the other my friend just pushes me off the ledge. It's better than that. It's better than that. It's your only chance. You can swim right. Yeah.

You've got a better chance in the better to radio. Ah! Holy! I just, this funny thing played out in my head, this whole commercial break thing played out in my head. I'm sure. It's part of the challenge of being on the commercial break is that you're constantly have to find stuff to keep yourself entertained.

We don't seem to have a problem with that because we just find everything entertaining, right? We find something funny about it. But this whole funny thing that I was like oh I'll get in the middle And I'll take a little video and then we'll do it on air but the look on that and I asked her to face told me everything that I needed to do Yeah, she was like no sir no sir you're not gonna be a part of that jazz commercial break okay, okay, okay, no, if you do that, oh, lay. She's so sick of the commercial break. She's like, why did I ever tell him to get on a microphone? Don't ask.

And you know, the weirdest thing, the strangest thing that happened, the entire trip, we're in this open air market in Madrid, downtown. I love those. They're beautiful. And there's one in the big square, the Plaza Mayor, the major Plaza, right? The big-

Was it like food and goods? You know, you could buy certain stuff from certain vendors, but it was mainly food. It's the very famous, like if you say the market, the Mercado de Plaza Mayor, most people who live in Madrid will know what you're talking about. It's very popular.

It's always so fucking crowded. And I've been there 10 times now. And so we go. It's just a place we like to stop. Best bite of food I've ever had has been at this market. And so we go and they didn't disappoint again. You buy some ham, you buy some bread, you buy a couple drinks,

and then you find a place if you can to sit. And so there's these long shared tables, like long, skinny shared tables. In the middle of the market, but there's very little sitting space. Most people just grab the food and walk around or they leave. And so we decide we're gonna try and find a spot.

We pop up at a table where there's a couple feet of, there's no chairs, but there's a couple feet of space. We ask, hey, can we put our stuff here, yeah, of course. So we stand and we're standing around the very end of this table, and we're talking, there's a big post at the end of the table, like a big post holding the entire thing up. So we're all sitting around, standing around this post

kind of talking, and they are asking me about the commercial break, and how do you make money, and we don't, and then how do you, you know, how do you still do this? Is it possible that you have this many listeners? It's not. You know, same stuff Jeff always asks. That's an episode where you are like,

we get some great reviews. Jeff want to know if you're paying for them. I'm like, why does everything have to be, well, it's even Jeff's so cynical of the commercial break. So it'd be clear. we do not pay for reviews. Yeah, we did the beginning. We first started getting a couple of good reviews. Yeah, Jeff was like, who are these idiots? Pay for those?

No. But one of those reviews is me reviewing myself. You go figure out which one it is. It's one of the first ones. I you. You got the ball rolling. Yeah, you get the ball rolling. I got to prime the pump a little bit.

I think you left one too. So, and of course you do everybody else. That's just the way it works. So, we're standing around this pole and then there's like a couple of other people that are hanging around also around the end of the table. So this whole conversation goes on about the commercial break and I then we just, then a table comes free of the somewhere

down on the other side of the thing. I'm sorry. That's so funny. Ham for everyone. The commercial. Ham, ham, ham. I beer go for everyone. Within five feet of me.

That's how well we're doing. Let's make that three feet. How about I buy some ham? And if I have any leftover, I'll share it with you. Does anybody have a dollar? I give a euro, I give borrow. I'm trying to get some ham for myself. And then whoever else gets the scraps. The ham comes in these paper cones. They look like ice cream cones, they just fill it with

shredded ham. The shredded eye bearer com ham is delicious. So good. So I go up there and I go, I go, ask her and I are buying for everybody else and I'm like, okay, let's get the best eye bearer code that we can, right? And only the best for the commercial break conversation. You come to me on the day of my children's baptism when you ask for greasy am in a night cream cone.

I will get to. So I buy these two and the lady's like 47 year old and I find seven year old. What are you talking about? Yeah, it's expensive. It's terribly good. I got a ham. It's good.

So then I said, what about the other ham? I'm just that. That. That. What about the boards? Had you buy a public stuff? That's a medium grade. Do you have any boards?

I'll take it straight. I'll tell you what, Oscar Meyer, the packages. Could you just put that in a cone? We'll call it a day. I could imagine coming up with some Oscar-Mire, Green Ham. Anyway, I get two of these things. It's like, we couldn't even finish half of one

because it's literally stuffed full of this shredded ham that's very oily and greasy, but delicious called Ibear or Gohan. Looking up, I'm not gonna spend the time here. So I leave, so we're turning the corner to go to this other table and a guy grabs me and he goes, hey, did I hear you say you're the host of the commercial break podcast? And I said, so we're turning the corner to go to this other table. And a guy grabs me and he goes, Hey, did I hear you say you're the host of the commercial break podcast? And I said, what?

And he goes, did I hear you say you have a podcast? It's called the commercial break. And I said, yeah. Uh, and he goes, like, it's a podcast that's going on right now. That's, and I said, yeah, it's a podcast. So I put my stuff down, I come back and I just, just to be polite to the guy, I didn't want to be dismissive I show him I go this is our podcast It's yeah, and he's got it open on his phone and he goes yeah, I know and he goes yeah you guys are like, you know

Are you guys are pretty popular and I was like and he goes I just read about your Contract signing oh no way in the in the PR because I work for one of the major podcast agencies called WME. I work for one of those agencies and I work sometimes in the podcast division. Like, you know, I work in the movie division, but I sometimes we handle this stuff. And I was like, oh, that's crazy because I know of WME. And I'm like, oh, my gosh, that's crazy. I can't believe it. And so we start chatting and he's like, and he's like, yeah, you guys are like, how did

you get so many listeners? And I'm like, and he's like, yeah, you guys are like, how did you get so many listeners? And I'm like, we don't know. I didn't tell you how many listeners we had. So how would you know how many listeners we have? So when you say, how did you guys get so many listeners, you're assuming that we have a lot of listeners, or are you assuming we just have 40,

and then you go, how did you get 40 listeners? Yeah, exactly. I thought it was a really kind of like- You got to pre-qualify it. It was almost like a- What's a lot to you? Yeah. It was like a backhanded compliment.

How did this happen? How did you guys get so many listeners? You mean how did we get 40 listeners? Yeah, how'd you get that many? It's a mystery to us also. No, we don't. Donal mystery. But I thought that was strange that this guy just came

out of the like left field in this market in Madrid. It like Astrid was giving you the side. I can already feel Matt. Yes. Our agent guy giving me the side. I don't even talk to them. Yeah. Well, I'm never even Matt. If Matt stays around, I'll be around forever. Matt Dicer. He's amazing. He's amazing. And I won't get all to into all of his backstory, but basically he's he's got a page and podcast history. This guy does. He has negotiated some of negotiated or been a part of the biggest deals in podcasting. And he's been nothing but great. We're looking to have him. Yeah. And I have no idea why he's agreed to be our agent. But we're just gonna ride with it. Yeah. He let him feel however he wants to feel.

I'm just gonna ride with it. Yeah, let him feel however he wants to feel. It's his charity project. It's his charity. Let's see Joe Rogan, the Obama's, call her daddy. Thank you, commercial. And I've gotta do, I've gotta do some brain for charity. He made a sign in NDA that said basically, we would never mention that he was our agent.

I'm gonna have to edit that out of the show. But I thought that was amazing and I'd like to say hello to Joe, who I had Joe and his beautiful wife. Not Joe Rogan. No, no, no, not Joe Rogan. You just said to do Rogan. Yeah, Joe Rogan. Joe was the guy that came up to you.

Joe was the guy from the WME agency. The Ham guy. Yeah, Ham guy, since I have Ham. Ham Mark. I said, do you want any Ham? Can you put, do you put him in your phone? Do you want a Ham? From the Ham Mark. Yes, I did. I put, do you want a Ham cream cone? Here, I have a hand mark. I said, do you want any ham? Can you put, do you put him in your phone? Is it so? Do you want a ham? From the ham mark.

Yes, I did. I put, do you want a ham cream cone? Here, I have a ham cream cone. No, I didn't even get his number because then I was like kind of embarrassed about the whole thing. Yeah. He basically overheard our conversation. He was listening in on our conversation that he heard that I was the host. He did not know of the commercial break before we had the conversation. He's a new listener.

Yeah. Well, and he said he had read it in that, he was like, oh, I remember you now, I read it in the trades, but it had just come out that day. And so I was like, but he wasn't like, you know, he had never heard the show. Did you read in a podcast magazine? A podcast magazine is no longer around. Who could have predicted Brian, Brian predicted?

Where is that thing? I don't know, they stopped. I know, I know, I mean, where is the one from us that we were in? Oh, it's somewhere know. They stopped it. I know. I mean, where is the one from us that we were in? Oh, it's somewhere here. I think it's up there. It's somewhere. Didn't ask for a frame, it or something?

No. No. And I don't know where I just moved. I didn't find it anywhere. It's worth nothing. It's never going to be worth anything. No, I know it's just funny. It is funny.

For the memory. It is funny that they gave us a five page spread in podcast magazine two weeks after we started the podcast. So that they're guy, they're comedy writer guy. It basically, Chris, he's tits. Yeah, he was the most unprofessional human being I've ever met in my entire life. But we knew this. I'm gonna say he's like, my wife just walked by and said, whoa.

Yeah, he was a singer. He was a singer and he had, he was like, proposing a. Her finding, swinging partners. It was incredibly unprofessional. He did it repeatedly to people that we know. He did. Every time he got a girl on a Zoom phone call, he decided that was his opportunity

to try and get her to sleep with him. And that's the reason why we got the five page spread, is because he thought, Chrissy was hot. Now, at that time, we took it. Do you know how many, you know exactly how many new listeners we got because of the podcast page spread is because he thought Chrissy was hot now at that time we took it do you know how many you know exactly how many new listeners we got because of the podcast magazine spread i think negative zero yes we lost subscribers there were like well if this podcast is dumb enough to be in the podcast magazine yes featured in podcast magazine the print magazine in a print magazine who's looking for podcast magazine. The print magazine. In a print magazine. Who's looking for podcast magazine?

Who? Who's looking for that? Can't find it at a gas station. There's no more barns and noble. No one downloads it. And here's the shittiest part. Is that when we got that cover, I got, I was excited just to have anybody talking about us. Yeah, yeah.

Because where the podcast was really new. No, I knew. Listen, we, at the time we were, we were grateful for the coverage, little did we know until we figured out that no one actually listened or watched that. And I got, I was a pervert. And I got, I was a pervert.

He had a podcast called the Hot 100. And he's like, y'all are in top 12, Hot 100. And I'm like, how was that? I'm making up. It's exactly what he said. I make it up. He goes, here's a little secret. Just keep emailing and telling us the commercial break needs to be number one.

He did say that. He did say that. So, rigged. But whatever. Who's looking for the podcast magazine? Hot 100 podcast. Let's find one. I wanted to just see it again just to remember and laugh.

We'll break it out and read it one day. There's our first original pictures too. Now we're five photoshoot, Tim. Hey, I know, we got a six lined up. What are we doing? All these fucking photographs? No one cares. No one cares about us.

No one gives a shit. No one out there gives that much of a shit. I just decided for this next one, I'm going wacky. Oh, what are you gonna do? I don't know, we're a wig, wear some glasses. Get a t-shirt and cut the nipples out, and then you just have your nipples hanging on. And we'll post them all over Instagram and just get them all deleted. We'll just get our account blocked.

During the pandemic, I won on an epic run of bad financial luck.

In part because I kept buying billboards in Iowa for the commercial break. Upon further investigation as to where exactly my money was going, I discovered that many, many subscription services were hitting my bank account or my credit cards every single month and I had not been aware nor had I even using those subscriptions for months and in one case for years. Years I was paying these people. I needed these people to stop charging my credit card. I hadn't used their service in years.

That's what I got serious and I downloaded rocket money. Rocket money is a personal finance app that allows you to cancel unwanted subscriptions.

And when you're a middling podcast host on camera, that's important every time I get

in the studio. I do it for you. I shave for you, but I don't want to deal with all the drama that a bad razor can cause. And that's why six years ago, I switched to Harry's. Nothing's more exciting than getting a new Harry's package in the mail. And when I get a new razor handle, man am I super excited. Because it feels heavy and witty in your hands. Gives you the ability to shape and curve that beard just how you want to.

And whatever else you're going to do on your body, that's your own business. Harry's can take care of it. No more razor burn. No more bad shapes. No more weird beard angles because you can't get your disposable razor to run around that chiseled jaw that you have. And no more toothpaste on your neck because you're bleeding everywhere from a bad shave. Harry's has you covered.

Alright, I'm ready. Chrissy. Brian. In pursuit, you know, as my bat children get baptized, I got to think about the right people to teach my children about Christianity and Jesus being our Lord and Savior and all that. It's a serious thing. It's a serious thing. And because I'm not the person you want to go to for, you know, religious dogma advice, I was strolling the internet hoping that I could find somebody something some way of explaining to my young children the power of Religion the power of the Lord, okay

Besides Carl besides Carl Which is a whole different kind of power in religion. Hey girl Why did I say that so creepy? It was extra creepy. There you go. It was go low. That's right. I just want to let you know that if you want to, if you want to find somebody to teach you the power of the Lord, there's no one better than Carl's I'm not a good guy. We have my Philly dick steak. My Philly dick steak is on sale at Carl's June. You know what I'm saying?

Someone said when you get in your 21 EPMs and you're just feeding the pigeons. I'd like to go feed the pigeons. Teach your kids about religion. Feed the pigeons and knock them down or the pigeons. You know what I'm saying, girl? Oh my God. So I had to teach on a full deck, so I gotta go. I gotta go release.

I gotta go walk with the Lord with my rod and staff. I gotta go, I gotta go myself up today. Sometimes I can't do car because I start to get I start laughing too much because I know the real car. I've seen a bridge on video and it's so on the nose. He's so on the nose. He is such a sad dog. I was that documentary? Have you watched that with him? No, I haven't gotten to it. That's more shit I need to get to. That's a lot of no-song. Okay, I'll get to it.

But what I found is some throwback to the 80s when things were simpler. American gladiators. Here was higher. If you watched the American gladiators talking to me. What a great documentary. Well, except I started what? Stopped watching it in because it was just getting sad. Well, no, it, you know, it it in the end because it was just getting sad. Well, no, it, you know, it's sad that they broke the whole band up, right? Yeah, yeah.

But the American Gladiators documentary is brilliant. Go watch it. If you ever watched the American Gladiators, go see it on Netflix. I managed to catch up with it when I was traveling and I really enjoyed it. It was like five hours of really entertaining fun. Go watch it. Um, entertaining fun and very interesting, the whole minutia that went out in the bathroom.

That is, yeah. But so in the time. I have to cast those people to the room. I know, yeah. I had to cast them. They just basically yanked them off the street all of a sudden, they're famous. Well, they had to do that little thing

at like muscle beach or whatever to kind of try out. Yeah, but remember they were saying like, you know, all the people showed up and they just like, they didn't, couldn't cut the muscle. No, they couldn't. Yeah. Anyway, back in the days of American Gl gladiators there was one way and one way only

to overpower someone's sense of common sense and get them to believe in religion especially the teenagers and that was by being a part of the power squad you know do you remember the power squad i think this might ring a bell if you watch it this is basically five mussely big old mussely men and women that would run around the country

and do an arena show an american gladiars type arena show but all for the lord that's right so i thought we'd take a look at this and will jog your memory and we'll see just how ridiculous peep by the way this is becoming back, this is coming back. There are guys that are doing this on stage right now. Of course it is. You know, lifting weights for the Lord and blah, blah, blah. Everything 90s is cool again. That's right. It never really went away. It just hid in the corner until more're dumbass if you believe in this. But if you're watching the power gang or whatever it is here and that's what gets you going. Yeah. Yeah. Oh Smash it break for the lot Everybody can't see is that um, it's a it's a montage. Oh, it's okay, sir

That's right It's a montage of me and my friends get together for the Lord and doing multiple reps. Machine breaks with our heads, my hands. With our hands, with our heads, with our penises. And then we kick people in the gut. And that's how we show our love for the Lord. Oh yeah. Broken rib one and two.

Oh yeah. By the way, I think smashing bricks is a trick. It's like once you get one, then the rest of them kind of come crumbling down. The head thing looked weird. Yeah, there's something weird about that. It's almost like the brick was split before he put his head on it. Also, why do that?

I don't know. It's not a feat of strength. No, it's not. It's just a dumb, dumb thing to do. The banger, having it's a brick. Yeah. So what you're seeing is that when you're not seeing is that it's a montage opening the show.

It's a montage of them doing feats of strength quote unquote, which includes breaking 20 bricks with their hands, backing bricks with their head, kicking people, throwing things around. It's like, it honestly is like American gladiators or a really bad fitness show. They're in a ring. They're in a ring. They're in a ring and it's filled with people. Anytime you play I have the tiger. Yes.

Yes. You know, it just amps things up. Living up up to our Lord's expectations. So I don't sin. Gonna kick these bricks and put them in half that way I know the Lord's here to win I've got Jesus a savior and he's kissing my balls Living up to marry the Virgin That's good right thanks, bud. Appreciate it. Thanks, bud.

You go, it's asking, why are you so radical? Why are you so radical? I love that he opens this. Look at the outfit. The parish that this guy's wearing full parachute outfit, sweater and shirt. It cinches his waist. Sins at the waist. Yeah, elastic at the waist. Shoulder pads, yeah. Puffy top, puffy pants.

Shoulder pads, full on. It's a Pepsi hammerish. Yeah, then he's got the full mullet. We're not talking about half mullet. We're talking about full mullet party on top, party on the bottom, both parties right there and then he's saying people ask me all the time why you're so radical Radical what hey man. Why are you so radical? The word is rad. That's what used to say rad. I never even liked that word when I was using it

I was like rad. This just sounds weird I never even liked that word when I was using it. I was like rad. This just sounds weird I do I you should just go up to somebody just just for fun at like target or something. Yes, you know I just who why are you so radical? That's a new sticker. Why are you so radical? I'm gonna write it down People love to an axis. I want those on reviews. I want you to say, why is TCB so radical? Gif card to the first person who does that. Gif card to every person who does that. Yes. Send me a screenshot. Jesus, why do you go so crazy like you do? The reason that I am a crazy man for Jesus Christ is because Crazy man for Jesus Christ is because

that's where the best cocaine and hookers are. That's where I get the most buzz. He took alcohol out of my life. See, I drank beer when I was 14 years old And I drank all through high school When I got out of high school. I got drinking beer. Yes, yes There's a guy in the background drinking a can of Miller light while this guy's doing his testimony or whatever the fuck you call it I swear he was turning I know and this guy's like I drank a beer at high school. And then I continued to drink that same beer during my 20s. I had a problem.

I was nursing my beers. How is the fuck? So I said dear Lord, give me the strength to guzzle down some more Miller lights. And so he gave me anabolic steroids. I kept on drinking. I thought I'd find my happiness at the bottom of a beer bottle. And the other reason I started drinking in the first place is because I hang around with the wrong crowd of people. Because I start to like Todd here who's drinking a beer in the background. My dad everybody, Todd.

But hanging around with the young man that wouldn't accept me unless I could drink as much as they did. Why am I radical for Jesus? By the way, I've never been in a crowd where someone goes, you can't drink as much as us. You don't deserve to hang out here. I mean, come on. It's just more for us. I love the guys that can't drink as much as us. You don't deserve to hang out here. I think, come on. It's just more for us.

I love the guys that didn't drink a lot. So that was just like more bud lights for me. I hated one of the people who were drinking my bud light. I'd be like, why are you drinking my, except for Chrissy? I just happily split bud light with Chrissy. But anybody else, I can irritate it. Why are you drinking my bud light? And when it came to the drugs, forget about it.

I don't want anybody else, part dissipating. What's up, not cool. Yeah, no, no, no, I'm good. I've had enough All right, you mind if I go in the bathroom for the next four hours Can I use your restroom for the next four hours? Do you have a speaker I could play my Spotify on an extra guitar and possibly a pad of paper so I can write some lyrics to my new song The world is hurting. Sonny Sadduh. Sonny Sadduh. Because I used to smoke marijuana at snort cocaine on my nose. Where else would you snort cocaine?

I used to snort cocaine on my taint. Where'd you do it? In my taint. Only two Hail Mary's for that. That's it. Two Hail Mary's because you're doing it wrong. 15 years old, I started doing drugs because a young man came up to me at a party one night and said, hey, why don't you walk across the street with us tonight? Come behind a house and get high. There's two.

That's how we had always happens, too. Somebody's always asking you to go somewhere sneaky to get high. There's two. That's how we had always happens too. Somebody's always asking you to go somewhere, sneaky to get high. You know what I'm saying? You get a high, dude. Yeah, the kids today they have no idea. No. They literally walk into a grocery store

and they buy their, you know, double bubble gummies or whatever it is. You know, their d no idea what it's like that. Sneak behind a gas station It's by LSD from the guy guy kicked out of school yesterday. Yeah, that or go to somebody's house where the parents are out of town That's right, and that's the only place you can do it or go to the local drug dealer for the first time You know what I'm saying someone introduces you to the guy nervously. You have no idea what to expect You're never gonna know that why because you can just go to the store and pick it up. It's just spoiled Things I said I'd never do in my life. And one was wear bell bottoms.

And the other one was smoke marijuana. So you went to a parachute pants? Yeah, look at Viction wear bell bottoms. I'll never do that. I'll never be a pussy. I'm always gonna wear these parachute pants. Shoulder blades, shoulder pads. I'm not a wear these parachute pads, shoulder blades, shoulder pads. I'm not a pussy for the Lord.

Not what I do. But at 15 years old, I started wearing bell bottoms. Unfortunately, I started smoking marijuana too. That was the downfall. That was the downfall you went from bell bottoms to weed. Yeah, weed. Bell bottoms are the gateway clothing. That's right.

Bell bottoms instantaneously make you gay. And a druggy. And a druggy. You're going to start smoking crack and sucking dick the second you put on bell bottoms. But the parachute pants and the shoulder pads forget about it. Keeps you clean. Keeps you clean and straight. The way God intended.

It didn't stop there. It kept on going. It went from marijuana to storing cocaine and doing harder drugs. A young man with a brother, great home. What's that? What's harder? What's harder? What do you mean?

He said doing harder drugs in cocaine. Oh yeah, there's not much more that's harder than cocaine. I mean, that don't really. In the like... PCP or something? Yeah, in the Venn diagram of drugs. Yeah, I would put PCP and Trankink at the top that trink shit that's killing everybody but that wasn't even around when he was here so no so pcp heroin cocaine

they kind of are all on the same level yeah I don't know anybody who's ever done pcp that's a one drug I don't think I've ever touched but cocaine in heroin that's about as hard as you get I think crystal meth maybe there I was turned away from the instruction and the wisdom of my parents. I got out with the wrong crowd of people and I started snorting cocaine and getting high as I could so I could be accepted by my friends. I did listen to the ones that knew what I was supposed to do

but I just listened to myself. I listened to my friend. Hey Jimmy, did you snort that cocaine yet? Yes I did. Good, you're in. He's talking about snort that cocaine yet? Yes, I did. Good, you're in. He's talking about sorting cocaine a lot. Yeah. Well, it's the 80s.

Yeah, I think cocaine's pretty ubiquitous. Okay, I miss it. I miss it. Honestly, I do. If I didn't think I was gonna have a heart attack or a panic attack or throw up or get my children taking away from me. Yeah, I would call it the Inaharpi. I'm here alone. my children taking away from me. Yeah, I would call it the in a heartbeat.

I'm here alone. My wife went away from me. So now I'm here alone. This is the first step to separation. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm joking. We've long been separated.

Anyway, so she separated from me long months ago. I just keep pretending. So she took the kids away. And the first thing I thought, it's like the first time I've ever been away from the children, except for work travel at my own house. In a long time. Yeah, it's a long time.

I'm like, what do I do? They call the drug dealer and get a pile of drugs and just go wild for a couple days. And then I fell asleep at 9.30. Yeah, exactly. I took some IV profit and went to bed. And my so-called friends. Why am I radical for Jesus? Because I was a young man who searched for something all his life. I searched for something to fill a void of my life.

27 years. I tried to find it in the military. I thought that was going to be a macho thing to do. But I couldn't find my happiness and I couldn't find that empty feeling that I wanted to be filled in the military I didn't even a good there. So you know what I did man-on-man porn No, I've got my manliness back This is my little boys are fucked up all around the world because you know you think yeah You got you got to be beefy and strong, and do drugs, and lift weights, and have sex with pussy, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

And this like culture has been perpetuated forever and ever, and I'm not saying all of it is bad. I don't throw the baby out with the bath water. There are differences between men and women. But this like attitude right here is just like, in the endemic of what was going on for so long in our world. I was never good with that kind of thing. So think I'd it turned because Thank God a answered was from a different country I couldn't find it the bottom way the way the way the way

Yeah, well, after was from a country where it's very acceptable to be a little bit more feminine, you know, you've got a scarf wearing span, you're, oh, span, Spain, yes, Venezuela, no. It's, it's allian, you know. Yes, in Spain, European, oh yeah, and by the way, I got, I bought a whole new wardrobe over in Spain because I find those clothes to be so much better looking

than the ones you can buy here. Anyway, back to the video. But, Peter Bottle, I couldn't find an Ameriwanna cigarette. I couldn't find it in drugs that put up my nose. He's like my mom, I'd come home, I'd be high, she'd be like, are you doing the pot again? And I'm like doing the pot, mom? Come on, get it together. No, I'm shooting heroin. So much better. I couldn't find in one thing that the world had to offer me. I couldn't find the success and I couldn't find it in money. The world had nothing for me. Absolutely nothing. The world had nothing for him. Well, what are you gonna do? I want to know where that guy is now.

We're gonna give it to Park 2 on this. It's a long video. There's a lot to cover. So we're gonna do a Park 2 on the power. Got us some big pants to investigate. Yes, I got us two on the power. We've got some big pants to investigate. Yes, I got some big pants to put on. Those are big pants to fit. I am, the Phil. I want to know where this guy is. I should do a little homework on this guy and find out where he is.

Yeah, he's gotta be in his 60s now. 60s, 70s. Did he stay radical? No, I can guarantee you he's living down in the villages with a pens for president flag. We're gonna find it. Do you know what his name was? with a pens for president flag. We're gonna find it. Do you know what his name was? No, I'll find it. Yeah, I'll find it. I'll find it. I'll find it.
