Commercial Bridge. commercial brain.
Starting point is 00:01:54 On this episode of the commercial break Feed me to a hungry snake and let the kids watch This is Bob of the Python and this is Brian the dead guy Let's get these two together. I feel like if we're gonna do something, let's make it interesting. Feed me to an alligator, have me eaten by a bunch of hungry, forest ants, something like that. I really though I'd be scared.
Starting point is 00:02:15 No, I'd be dead. What are they, you know? And that's one of those people. It's too for us, seriously. People watching. No, there's, please. Just know that it was my last will and testament here on CeliLoy for everyone to hear and remember.
Starting point is 00:02:26 He wanted to be eaten by a snake, sir. Officer, this is perfectly legal. Watch episode number whatever. Hi, I'm Michael Moore. I call the party line to meet new friends and to find out what's happening in town. Find out what's happening. Yeah, like people are just sitting around going and let me tell everyone about this happening event going on.
Starting point is 00:02:51 Hey, I'm Brian. I'm Brian from Shibou again with Concent, and I've been smoking meds for four days. Come over to my house, one, two, five, six party street. Find out what's happening in town. There wasn't a winner in that back then, so I guess maybe, maybe people found out what what's happening in town. There was no internet back then. So I guess maybe maybe maybe people found out what's going on sound. Hey, there'd be no about where a good party is. Yeah, come down to truck stop number 45. Stole three. There's a party going on. Sweet, I'll bring some beers. Just bring some Vaseline, son. I'll bring some beers.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Just bring some Vaseline, son. Oh God, they called it. The next episode of the commercial break starts now. Awwww, yeah! It's the time for the commercial break! Wee! Take two! Alright, how are you doing out there? I'm Brian, this is Chrissy and Happy New Year.
Starting point is 00:03:45 Best of you, Chrissy. Best of you, Brian. Best of you out there in the podcast universe. So glad you joined us for another exciting episode of the commercial break. Had you seen that they are now putting dead people in the scrondlesacks of trees. The best way not gonna explain it.
Starting point is 00:04:00 It looks like a big... I read about it, I haven't seen it. Looks like a big testicle. Okay. Looks like a little tree on top, right? Like haven't seen it. It looks like a big testicle. Like it looks like a little tree on top, right? Like a little sproutling. What do they call those a sproutling? It's a sproutling.
Starting point is 00:04:10 It's a little sproutling. I'm whacking near the sampling tree. Yeah. A little sproutling. And then it's a big nut sack. I mean, the thing is huge, right? And they stick a dead body in there. Like when you pass away, they stick in there.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Like curled up? Curled up. Like kind of in a... Feetal position. Yeah, like fetal position from once you came here you go. Yes. Is that what isn't that the old saying from once you came here You go I don't even know what when's means, but I think it's actually from hence you go from hence or when's call in right in about that And I'm not really sure it's more bullshit from Brian If you look you say it was such a thorey. Like many people on the internet are saying, great show, factual information, no bias here. I find out so much on this show.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Thanks. Can say, say. I've already wasted three minutes of your life trying to figure out whether Wenz or Hens is the word. It's a big ball, it's a big nut sack. That's the best thing I can explain. It does look like a testicle that they put in the ground and then the little sapling, like,
Starting point is 00:05:05 or the little stalkling or whatever you call it, is growing out of the top. So you become part of the tree's roots. You decompose, I guess the tree eats you. I'm not, are you feed the tree? Yeah, you feed the tree. You're all your new tree and said all that other stuff. I think it's kind of an interesting idea.
Starting point is 00:05:20 I'd prefer to be creamed, if you ask me, I just don't even, you know, I don't want my old bones rolling around somewhere. I just prefer to just cremated if you ask me. I just don't even, you know, I don't want my old bones rolling around somewhere. I just prefer to just like get, you know, dust it away or whatever. But I do think that it would, I- It could be kind of shocking for someone too. Like if you moved into a new house,
Starting point is 00:05:34 there's a tree out back, it's, maybe it's dying. And you need to dig it up and then, oh, surprise. Ah, surprise, there's a skull. Or what if you just like, you know, it's blooming one day, like, you know, and then there's like an eyeball pops out. That's brilliant. That's brilliant. Oh, that's Brian.
Starting point is 00:05:53 No, that's Brian's eyeball. Brian, the previous owner. Previous owner. Sad situation. He died of a podcast overdose. He's trying to get subscribers. So there's like this trend of doing cool things when you when you pass away. And I was thinking the other night, I think if you know, if I could be made into something like, you know, like maybe I'm much older than my wife is. So
Starting point is 00:06:18 maybe I could be made into like a, you know, a provocacour Jack rabbit 3000 with the extender. You know the provocacore Jack rabbit 3000 with the extender I just like the thought of knowing that yeah, you know whatever or you know What do they call it if it's part of the sex toy industry? I'm sure they're on that. That's right I'll feed me to a hungry snake or something. I feel like Feed me to a hungry snake and let the kids watch This is Bob at the path on and this is Brian the dead guy. Let's get these two together. I feel like if we're gonna do something, let's make it interesting.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Feed me to an alligator. I have me eaten by a bunch of hungry, Florida stance, something like that. I feel like that would be scary. No, I'd be dead. Unless I'm one of those people. It's scary for the people watching. No, there's are the, you know, unless I'm one of those people with, I'm scared for the people watching. No, there's, please.
Starting point is 00:07:07 Just know that it was my last will and testament here on Celi Lloyd for everyone to hear and remember. He wanted to be eaten by a snake, sir. Officer, this is perfectly legal. Watch episode number whatever. I watched episode number whatever. He said he wanted to be a dildo. I'm not sure this goes along with his estate switches.

Starting point is 00:09:46 who have followed us from, I think, from this particular promotion. And they're interacting with us. And I think we're picking up a few fans along the way. But there are people who clearly have no, they are leaving comments about their favorite lines from their favorite episodes that I don't ever remember saying, you know?
Starting point is 00:10:00 Like, you miss a thousand percent of the shots you never take. And I'm like, I never said that. Why would I see that? Or I like the one where you talk about hand jobs. And I'm like, I never talked about a hand job ever. They just like make up random shit. And just know that if you're making up random shit, you are not going to be the winner. Because I want accuracy.
Starting point is 00:10:25 If there's one thing that Chrissy and I are a demand on the show, it's accountability and accuracy. Right. Just watch the end. Yes, hence, hence, hence,
Starting point is 00:10:35 hence, hence, it came, hence it goes. The accurate kind of reporting we do. That is the King's English right there. That's legal, jargon. You can take to the bank. Remember that episode?
Starting point is 00:10:52 It's so bad. It's so bad. I think that was about flat earthers. Anyway. And now it's time for the commercial break.

So if you've been listening to the show, you know that my habit as a little child of sitting in front of the TV and eating endless bowls of sugary cereal has followed me into adulthood. Only now I do it late at night
Starting point is 00:11:31 when it couldn't be worse for me and I still love those sugary fatty cereals. Magic spoon is made for me. They made it directly for me. You wanna know why? Because it's zero grams of sugar. It's 13 to 14 grams of protein, and only four net carbs per serving. It's also only 140 calories per serving. How is it possible?
Starting point is 00:11:51 I don't know, but they sent us a free box of this cereal, like a free variety pack of this cereal. And Astor and I went to a party, and we ended up spending a half an hour talking about this cereal. It is that good. It is honestly so delicious. Better than some of the cereals I buy at the store. I don't know how they do it and make it so good for you, but they have done it. And for all of you on those specialized diets, it's keto-friendly, gluten-free, grain-free, soy-free, low-carb, and GMO-free. The variety pack comes with four flavors, cocoa, fruity, frosted, and peanut butter. Obviously replicating some of your favorite sugary cereals when you were a kid. Here's what I did. I took some of
Starting point is 00:12:29 the cocoa and I mixed it with peanut butter and it's like a peanut butter cup. That's what it tastes like. It's so good. And the frosted tastes like cake. I'm not even kidding you. Cake, cereal cake. It's unbelievable. And I don't feel guilty after eating it late at night as I do with all of my cereals. Here's what you can please do.

I'll eat it. So we were talking about Clubhouse a couple of weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:13:30 And we were saying that, you know, please come and join our Clubhouse Club. And then last week we told you, don't forget about it, don't join our Clubhouse Club because it doesn't matter. Just want to make sure we're consistent. Consistency, accuracy, stability. That's what you're going to get from the commercial break. Just go back and listen from episode number one. which is want to make sure we're consistent consistency accuracy stability that's what you're going to get from the commercial break just go back and
Starting point is 00:13:48 listen from episode number one you'll clearly see you'll get that for a month all of our failed at each month there's a different dumb idea that we have that we never follow through on the only thing we've ever followed through on is making sure there's an episode here every week that's the only thing that we've ever followed through on so don don't believe us. I mean, you know, maybe, maybe you never know. We're thinking about it right now. So we had this brilliant idea that we would get on Clubhouse when the clubhouse was the hot thing, and then we'd invite people and they'd come. Yeah, we do our show on Clubhouse. Yeah, we did it one time and no one showed up. Well, no, we had like a couple of people show up, but then they left.
Starting point is 00:14:25 They stayed for an exactly 30 seconds. But then there was that one time when we realized we didn't have our microphones plugged in, so they couldn't. They were probably like, what is that? That was on fire side, I think. Oh, was it? Yeah, it was on fire side.
Starting point is 00:14:39 But I'm sure it happened on Clubhouse there. Yeah, we're just so bad at technology. Don't ask us. So we were, I was trying to explain Clubhouse to somebody this weekend that had not even on Clubhouse there. We're just so bad at technology, don't ask us. So we were, I was like trying to explain Clubhouse to somebody this weekend that had never been on Clubhouse. And I said, it's, again, I'm repeating myself when I say it's kind of like a party line from the 90s if you're familiar.
Starting point is 00:14:55 So for the kids who are not familiar about the 976 and 900 party lines, let me try my best to explain what was going on back in the 90s. Back in the 90s, you use your cell phone now, you pick up the phone, you dial a number and a very complicated series of wireless transactions happens to get your phone call from one place to the other. It goes from your phone to a computer to a box, to a system to a space down back, there's
Starting point is 00:15:22 a person involved pressing a button. I'm not even really sure, don't it? But I know that the phone call gets from one place to the other. But back in the day, we didn't have wireless cell phone technology, or at least it wasn't very robust. Maybe a few rich people had cell phones. The car phones. The car phones, right, which were like 16 and a half pounds and cost $700 a minute to
Starting point is 00:15:43 make a phone call. Because then literally someone had to like, I think someone was like running the signal from one place to the other. They actually had to deliver a tape. They put it on CD and then they'd run and they go, here's a brand said, go back this way. Oh, cell phone. What's that? What's that?
Starting point is 00:16:02 It's a thing you make phone calls on. Oh, interesting. Is that kind of like a Jack in the rabbit? What's a Jack in the rabbit? Back in the day, we used to write messages on the back of a Jack in the rabbit. Slap him on the button, see where he went. Go, finish him a wife.
Starting point is 00:16:20 So we had a phone on the wall. Every family had a phone on the wall. Yes. Every family in the world had a phone on the wall every family had a phone on the wall Yes every family in the world had a phone on the wall and that phone is in the kitchen and the kitchen Why was in the kitchen? I guess because we spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Yeah, that's what it was the main room That's right. Well someone would ring you up Mm-hmm and the whole house would run to get the phone right because we didn't know who was somebody getting the phone Get the phone It could be the post office telling us about a package to being delivered in six to twelve weeks Get the phone. I'm waiting for a phone call from the CD of the month club. Oh
Starting point is 00:17:00 Get the phone Get the phone. It's the only way we'll ever know anything's happening is if we get this one phone call right now! You would imagine how long it would take for things to get done back then because you had a way for the phone call and if you weren't there, you weren't there. And then maybe you got a message on the answer machine but guess what? Then you had to call them back and then you'll leave a message on their answer machine. It was very complicated back then.
Starting point is 00:17:25 But there was a phone on the wall and you would pick it up and somebody would be magically talking to you. Now back then we thought this was the shit's tits. I mean, we were like, holy shit. And if you got your own phone as a teenager, you were just like, yeah, you were the coolest thing that ever happened. Some people had their own lines.
Starting point is 00:17:39 I had my own line for my 15th birthday. I got my own line, Kevin got his own line, mainly because I think my dad was like, fuck this whole shit. I don't ever get to talk on the phone. I got my own line, Kevin got his own line, mainly because I think my dad was like, fuck this, bro, shit. I don't ever get to talk on the phone. I gave missing phone calls, which is Brian's, making plans to meet whatever Hussie at the rectory of church. So he can get a hand shandy in the back of the
Starting point is 00:18:01 altar boy, closet. So he had this phone on the wall and then you would answer the phone. And if you were really awesome, you would have a long phone. Oh, the long cord, yeah. It's the long cord. The one that could go into the other room.
Starting point is 00:18:18 Your parents were cool if you had the long cord. Because if you had the long cord, you could walk around the corner and talk where everyone could probably still hear you, but at least to give you the ed. People would have the limbo, do the shimmy under the court. That's right.
Starting point is 00:18:33 But yeah, you could be private. Oh, that's right. Yeah, now the court was going everywhere and people would go under it and over it and on top of it and hey, can you go over here because I'm trying to make dinner and all this other shit. I mean, but in the 90s, there was a trend came about. And that trend was called 900 or 976 numbers.
Starting point is 00:18:51 If you had the prefix 900 or 976, then that meant it was a paid line. You were being charged by the minute to make that phone call, not like a long distance phone call, but they were actually charging you. And some of these were like outrageously expensive $10 for the first minute 399 with each additional minute and I mean those were the sex ones those were the sex ones right because they got you And did that girl would be on the phone with you all night long. Yeah, she knew how to get you
Starting point is 00:19:18 Thanks for calling secret passions. This is bad. What's your name? Hi, I'm Brian. oh Brian you sound like you have a big hard boner I do I do I'm so excited what do you look like oh what do you think I look like what do you want me to look like I don't know I've got a poster of Pam Anderson on my bed right over my bed right now you think I look like? What do you want me to look like? I don't know. I've got a poster of Pam Anderson on my bed right over my bed right now. I think you look like Pam Anderson.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Oh, you know, and you're just in luck. I'm blonde and bucks him, and I'm waiting for your hard boner to come close to me. Can you put your boner next to the phone so I can talk to it for five to ten minutes? Right. Yeah, I can. Okay, make sure you keep it down there.
Starting point is 00:20:12 I'm going to talk dirty to it. Okay. Hi, boner. Excuse me while I go get ready. I'll be back in 15 to 20 minutes. Don't hang up now. I won't. You keep that phone near your bouncer. Don't worry. I'll be back. Yes. Meanwhile, it was Bob from Shaboykin was constantly were talking to her. Exactly. Hey, there's this Betty Lou. What do you look like?
Starting point is 00:20:45 Ah, Betty, you sound like a little bit like a man. Oh, that's just because I've been smoking cigarettes for touching myself waiting for you to dial in. Now, I have to ask you some questions. Did you get your parents permission to make this phone call? Oh, yes, I did Okay, are you ready for a seven to twelve hour sex adventure?
Starting point is 00:21:13 I guess I think that's okay with my parents Great. I just need you to press one and approve the following chart 700 and fifty six dollars and 22 cents for the first minute 622 dollars for next each additional minute. Okay, let's get started. What do you look like, Brian? I'm really tall and I've got hair on my chest and my balls. I'm already been through puberty. I'm a man.
Starting point is 00:21:42 I'm a been through puberty. I'm a man. I'm a real man. Sweet, let's get started. Want us to go downstairs, take off your clothes, and spend five to ten minutes getting ready. I'll be back. They got you every time. It was always some ploy to get you to spend more time on the phone with them. I'm going to put the phone next to my tits for 26 minutes. I want you to put your phone next to your dick for 26 minutes and we're going to rub them together.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Oh, sweet. But then they weren't all sex lines. You could also call the party line. Yes. It was like a second. They made you think it was a sex line. They made you think you were going to get laid instantaneously for calling the party line, right?
Starting point is 00:22:22 You called 976, whatever, chit chat, or whatever it was. And the commercials always made it seem like there was some hot, attractive people. It was hot people, yeah. Of course. There's all talking, hangin' and laughin' together. Oh! Oh!
Starting point is 00:22:35 Oh! We're having a party. Yeah. I found Billy on the party line last night. We hooked up today and we've been having fun. Why don't you call? It's like, oh my god, I want to be with her. Don't worry, Billy just died in a horrible caudoo accident. I'll be on the line. So you call, but this is what it sounds like.
Starting point is 00:23:02 And you'd be like, what? Who said, huh? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Everybody else was trying to talk. They put 12 people on at the same time. And everyone was talking over each other. And so what you ended up becoming was a voyer
Starting point is 00:23:16 of somebody else's conversations that were not sexy, not interesting. But by the time you figured it out, you were already $600 into the phone call. So you might as well just stay on for another couple hours and hang out with everybody. So I called these lines a few, I've said this before, I called these lines a few times and I got in some trouble and my dad was really pissed. You know, because I had, I had my own line. So even though I tried to deny that I was the one who made those phone calls, clearly it came from my room at three o'clock in the morning.
Starting point is 00:23:42 My dad was not convinced, convinced. Dad, I don't know what that's all about. I wouldn't make that phone call. Patrick. Patrick. I mean, no, Patrick's six. I thought I heard Patrick in my room the other night. Oh, you did.
Starting point is 00:23:58 He's still on his crib. I know, he's an escape artist. A little bastard coming in my room, making phone calls at 3 o'clock in the morning. Oh my God, my dad, I can't believe my dad had to come directly off his shoulders. He had four boys, can you imagine? Four boys, all of us trouble in our own way,
Starting point is 00:24:16 but I was mainly the trouble maker. I was a trouble maker and everybody else followed suit. But so what I thought I would do is, you know, listen, and I got, I want to thank our good friend, William, the Wonderboy for prompting me to do this sooner than I would have otherwise done it. I actually put this on my list of things to talk about, and then William sent me some YouTube videos
Starting point is 00:24:39 where they have these commercial, old commercials from the 90s. Oh, nice. The 976 numbers. And so I thought it might be interesting to take a look back on the time when we were all doing 976 phone calls, 900, so we were maybe not doing it, but we were watching them.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Now remember, these commercials only played very late at night. Only if you were up past, I think it was 11 or 11 30. Yes. Would you ever hear these commercials listen to how just how awful some of these commercials are? And I'm leaving the phone numbers in, by the way. Don't call them, because I don't know what that... Actually, that's an interesting thought.
Starting point is 00:25:10 Yeah, at least. I wonder if any of these numbers, should we call one on air? Maybe that might be an idea. Let's get through some of the commercials, and then we'll go for it. Here we go. Ready? These are 90s, 976, and 900 numbers. He thinks he could do that to me, and I won't tell anyone?
Starting point is 00:25:24 Well, I 900 numbers. He thinks he could do that to me, and I won't tell anyone? Well, I am telling. Here's startling secret confessions, called 1,900, 7,000. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Startling secret confessions. Okay. Startling. Meanwhile, you call it,

Yeah, that is. And this is back 20 years ago.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Those companies were making serious money. Crazy money. This is a racket I want to get in on. And by the way, everybody did get in on this. Yeah. Because even celebrities had their own lines I know we have a few of those coming up particular Recently we asked some frequent callers why they dial the one 999 5372
Starting point is 00:27:18 Recently we asked some frequent callers why they dial the 999 42727-3344-674-217-7897 number. And by the way, there was no cell phones. You couldn't capture a picture. There was no DVR. So if you didn't catch that incredibly complicated phone number the first time, you were screwed. That's true. That's true.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Hi, I'm Gigi DeLail, and I use the party line to meet new friends. Hi, I'm Michael Moore.

Starting point is 00:28:10 There was no internet back then, so I guess maybe, maybe people found out what's going on in town. Hey, do you know about where a good party is? Yeah, come down to truck stop number 45, stall three. There's a party going on. Sweet, I'll bring some beers Just bring some Vaseline son. Oh God. They called it.

Which is to catch you phone line, by the way, $999, $125, $775, $5. Yeah, he did a good job. Good job on that one. By the way, notice he said it's only $2 for the first minute, $0.95 for each additional minute. I wonder why the first minute was so expensive.
Starting point is 00:29:59 I guess because you hang up pretty quickly. It's like, you call and no one's there. Hello? Is anybody know what's going on in my town? I need to know about events in my town. No son, but do you want to tickle your balls with my mouth? All right, that was my girlfriend Tasha. She's telling me that this guy called me over like,

Lane is dark, I mean, didn't they just show it every day anyway?
Starting point is 00:53:56 Yeah, why didn't they? Well, you really have to be in general hospital, but there are some people who are, don't get in the middle of them and their stories. Oh yeah, I tried to solve. Do you remember when we worked in a clear channel? And they had in the break room, they had a television, right? And every afternoon, some ladies, some of the older ladies in the office would sit there
Starting point is 00:54:19 and they would watch general hospital. I don't even think that shows on anymore, is it? I don't know. Isn't young, isn't young and restless? The only show that's on anymore? They're all gone. All the soap operas are both in beautiful or whatever. All the soap operas, they have a soap channel,
Starting point is 00:54:30 I guess now, because you could watch some of these soap operas. But these shows were daily live shows. And they went on for decades and decades and decades. It's basically the same thing. People would die, they'd come back, they'd die, they'd come back. They had a fair. Yeah, having a fair, we'd have really fucked everybody, everybody fucked everybody. It was a die, they'd come back. I have a fair, fair, fair, fair. You never knew.
Starting point is 00:54:45 Everybody, everybody, everybody. It was a lot of incest going out. It was a crazy, yeah. But we'd go up into the break room, and God forbid you make noise while the story's wrong. Oh, I know. And they would say, don't interrupt our stories, stories. Yep.
Starting point is 00:54:57 That's what you would call them. Awful television show, what are you talking about? But you gotta be really desperate for information about your favorite stuff. To dirt on the... To watch it every day and then and then spend an additional $300 getting more information. And what kind of information they give you. I so wish these were around still. So we could make phone calls. I wish there was a place like a repository for old 900 and 999 numbers

Now you got a you only got so much time. Maybe we'll save it for it. Maybe we'll save more from for another time. But that was it. That was the deal. You know, now you got a flavor for what was going on. First of all, you realize how bad the audio was back in the 90s on our televisions.
Starting point is 00:57:12 And that's what we heard, by the way. This wasn't like, this is just a bad tape. This is actually what we heard coming through our speakers. And we thought it was the shit. If you thought the sound was bad, you should look at the picture that was going on. 4K, it wasn't even in one game. It was just a big, fuzzy glob.
Starting point is 00:57:29 And we thought it was the coolest thing ever. I mean, we didn't know to any different. That's the thing about technology. It's that it oftentimes, when it's here, you're like, wow, this is amazing. And you don't think twice about it. But then a couple years, you look back and you go, holy shit, we were actually like, we were actually pressing multiple numbers to text like there wasn't a keyboard on the phone back then
