Well, it certainly is nice to see them work things out for themselves.
They haven't worked anything out for themselves. It's my barbecue sauce.
They're a barbecue sauce.
My barbecue sauce.
Haven't you ever noticed after people have something in my barbecue sauce?
After a while when it kicks in they get all huggy buggy?
Top!
I'm dead serious.
Haven't you ever noticed that after one of my barbecue'sues and they have the sauce people want to get right home?
Let me tell you something else.
I got a cup of it up on the night table.
I got a cup of it I say, left it up there breathing.
Why don't you give the chicken to these people that's going up and have some sauce.
to these people that's going up and have some smiles. On this episode of the commercial break, for three weeks, you pick another partner.
So there's 12 people.
To try out.
You pick another partner and you try them out.
And you decide if you really want to be with the first partner, which is absolutely
fucking wacky, dude.
It makes no sense.
There's no real life application for this.
This is just a drama, this is just a shit-starring show.
You know what I'm talking about?
There's two little muscles that go down there
that are pointing in the direction of your
flaccid cock.
I'm saying, it's like a little, it's a street song.
D, the V.
Yeah, the V. It's a neon V, just pointing directly
to the happy zone and

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no She'll go like this back to me, so show fingerwag back to me. If I tell her no, she'll fingerwag.
And if I tell my son no, he just does whatever the hell it pleases.
But he's a three-nager, and that's what we got to deal with.
The best of you out there on the podcast universe.
Thanks for joining us on yet another episode of this,
The Commercial Break.
Really, when you have her knee.
Okay, so you're wondering, that's it.
Don't worry about those other commercial breaks.
Especially not the vlog.
This is not the commercial break you're looking to for,
yeah, the vlog.
They've never seen the light of day until I decided to make it see the light of day.
How bad.
Bad was that.
That was the thing.
We both made fun of our younger selves.
Yeah, I mean, listen, we all make mistakes.
We're going to look back on this in 10 years and go, well, that's a fucking train wreck.
We probably should have gotten jobs.
I or live in in the moment.
Yes, your honor and bankruptcy court.
I was trying my best.
Hahaha.
Look at what it could have been.
It could have been much worse, your honor.
It could have been much worse.
It could have been much worse.
Hahaha.
So a lot of stuff to get to today.
Let's jump right into it.
I.
You know, we just got back from having a little break and so when I was on vacation
I didn't have access to my normal viewing activities
I because I will say this about the Disney cruises. No TLC no discovery. No nothing
What's this about the Disney cruises? I have been on the much bigger cruise ships and the internet was as if you're at your house
You can make phone calls you could internet it no problem. You could make phone calls, you could internet it,
no problem, you could download, stream, do whatever you want.
The Disney cruise had miserable fucking internet.
You couldn't even get on a website.
It took like 30 minutes.
They wanted to be out in a bow.
No, they want you to buy their internet program.
That's what they want.
They block your phones, they have a phone blocker
because we're not that far off the coast.
Like, I mean, you can pick up. Like a Bah Like, I mean, you can pick up cell phones and Miami,
until you're probably 30 or 40 miles away, I would imagine.
I'm not a technologist, but I imagine that's how it goes.
Yeah, no.
They black your fucking cell phone,
and then they tell you you got to buy, you know,
300 megs for $30.
You know what 300 megs is?
It's like one really good selfie is what that is.
And so, someone sends you a text message with a fucking picture in it,
and you're fucked, you just spent $30.
I know.
Anyway, and I didn't have any, but that's okay, I was there to watch TLC.
I had to do plenty of that here in the studio.
Yeah.
When I got...
When I got withdrawal, it was just a little bit.
Little back, little bit.
Little tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy tatsy. little back little bit little ten eighteen tini
but when I got back I was
inundated with news and
television that I had not yet
had an opportunity to watch
I turned on my you know my go
to TLC discovery at first of all
are you are not watching the new
ninety day the other way no but
there is one that it's on Netflix
that's the follow up to love
is why I saw that but we didn't it. We watched one episode and we didn't
remember. The first episode I was kind of like in, but I'm going to give it a shot. I
thought it's something that we could discuss. Okay, I'll keep going.
The premise of it is pretty crazy. It's fucking wack. And I told that, here's the premise
of it. I won't give away anything about the first episode. But here's the premise is
that five or six couples. It's the same host. A same host, the NASA and Luschet.
The premise is that five or six couples
that are on the verge of either break,
it's like they're giving them an ultimatum,
either we're breaking up or getting married.
Yes.
One of the two.
And it could be the girl or the guy
that's giving the ultimatum.
Yeah, and so they discuss all that on the first episode.
And then for three weeks, you pick another partner.
So there's 12 people.
You pick another partner and you try them out and you decide if you really want to be with the first partner,
which is absolutely fucking wacky, dude. It makes no sense. There's no real life
application for this. This is just a drama. This is just a shit-starring show,
which I get it. That's what Netflix needs to do in order to drive ratings.
I don't hear the same kind of scuttle about this
as we did about Love Is Blind in either season.
But I watched the first episode
and it's just so unbelievable to me
that I can't get into it.
And here's what I told Astrid
when we went in three minutes of the show.
I said not one of these couples is not already broken up.
They're already broken up.
Probably.
And they're coming on here as like a last-ditch effort or because they want
some fame. Because you do not send the one, this person that you're ready to get married
to into a home to live with some hot fucking stud for the next three weeks and see if, you
know, his dick happens to make it into your vagina.
Why are you using some jealousy happening?
Of course.
The white girl came over and sat down right at the table that the new girl and guy were
taught.
Yeah.
I've read somewhere.
You know, listen, I get-
I watch it.
There's plenty of content I can focus on.
There are, I just want to give this, I want to give this disclaimer again.
There are lots of shows and programs that you can go to to get fucking facts.
This is not one of them.
Do not take anything that we say here with any degree of seriousness because we do not
know what we're talking about.
We're two friends as if we were sitting at a bar
shooting the shit and one of us really doesn't know what facts are.
And that's me.
So let me explain.
I read somewhere.
So let me explain.
Similar to what do you call the place
for the captain of the boat?
Starboard.
Starboard.
Starboard.
Right side of the ship. So the boats. Starboard. Starboard. Starboard. Right side of the ship.
The cockpit. The cockpit. Yeah, that's not it either. That's a plane. I read somewhere.
The galley. The galley is the front of it is like the place where you walk in. I don't
know. I can't. Now I can't even still can't remember. It's the, I don't know what it's
called. The thing, the place where the people are.
And you know, it's in the, at the helm,
they're at the helm.
They're at the helm of the ship.
But I'll give you that's what you call it either.
Anyway.
Anyway, I read that non-monogamous relationships
are becoming like consensual non-monogamy
is becoming very popular with the younger generation.
Yes it is.
I don't, I'm not one who believes that you should be monogamous
for the rest of your life.
If you don't want to, you should do whatever the fuck makes
you feel good, right?
That your truth, if you're, if where you live and your own head
and your space is that I don't want to be stuck with one person
for the rest of my life or at any time in my life,
God bless you.
But I see this turning out really bad.
I see this thing out real bad.
It takes two really strong people to have a lot of therapy and working through that too.
A lot of rage happening in these younger kids.
And I don't know, but any relationship that I've been akin to, like that I've seen in my own life,
where they decide they're gonna do
consensual non-monogamy.
It's just another word for our relationship isn't working.
Let's try something really fucking drastic
and it never worked.
Never, not once.
Now once have I seen it work out.
And I can, I can probably name 10 people right now
and you would know who they were.
You already know who they were.
Okay, so I get back from the cruise
and then I got a whole thing to watch.
And one of the things that pops up on there
is a documentary series on Discovery,
three part documentary series on something called
the Hillsong Church, which I've been watching this story
for years.
Yes, but I'm folding for years.
The Hillsong Church, let me give you a little breath,
I'll give an explanation, right?
Okay.
And I actually wrote some things down
so I don't get them wrong, right?
Yeah, because I know that some people who are listening don't get them wrong. You know, there's a lot of things to do.
Yeah, because I know that some people who are listening
who have ever been to the Hillsong Church might be upset
if I get it wrong, so I won't get it wrong.
The Hillsong Church is a breakaway church
from a pentacostal type like Evangelical Christian church
based in Ulster.
I'll show you, I thought that way.
Okay, guys.
But not right.
Yeah, You did.
Guy comes from New Zealand named Houston and him and his son Brian Houston, they start
this, you know, evangelical church in Australia, then Brian breaks off and starts another
church that eventually ends up becoming the name Hillsong church named Hillsong because
of the band that was playing at the church was called Hillsong, right? Okay, so
Brian's his father has this very traditional. They should have called it 33p. They should have called it 33p.
Church
I'm the 33p pastor
Son is that up? They'd only known about your business. They'd only known about us then, then Hillsong would have, they'd still be going strong
to this day, but they're not.
And I'll tell you why.
Brian breaks off, he starts this more younger version of the church like hip, like it
relaxed, not so pentacostal, not so brimstone and fire.
And he realizes something.
He realizes that the music that's being played at the church, which is a little bit more
forward thinking than most of.
Yeah, like repeating all of the same old hymns
and maybe putting a little razzle dazzle on it,
is not what everybody's into, what they're into,
are these big, ballad swooping songs
that are very popular at the time, 80s, early 90s.
Yeah.
So Brian catches on to this, and he goes,
or the people at Hillsong catch on to this,
and they say, there's a formula, right?
It's the music that is doing something.
Drawing people in.
Now, tell you what it is.
Music is scientifically able to change your emotion
based on certain chord progressions.
There's a whole thing called music theory
that lots of people study in college
where you can actually manipulate how someone feels if given the right circumstances
based on chord progressions.
It makes sense whenever I'm in a certain mood if I kind of want to change it, I listen to music.
Yeah, and if you listen to an upbeat happy chord progression, major chord progressions, then you're gonna feel good.
If you listen to major minor chord progressions and they swoop, they like it goes from soft to loud,
you're gonna feel, it could be a religious experience,
could be considered a religious experience,
you're getting chills, I think of Celine Dioncing
and some huge high note in a minor key after a major,
like you're going, oh, you know, or Adele, Whitney Houston.
All of us who've been to a concert can probably
it can probably describe a religious type experience at a concert because music does that to us
And I do believe there is some god in music like there is some universe, you know computer in the sky
Whatever spirit whatever the fuck you want to call it that music is a communication tool that we don't quite understand
Through the ages yeah kids can learn how to read faster if there's music set to it.
There's a whole thing, right?
It's a thing.
Something goes on with music.
And it really hits us at our core.
It's a communication tool that we don't quite understand
all the power of.
But what people who are in the know have been doing for many years
and especially preachers is they, like if you go to a Benny
Hin, you know, Benny Hin is, okay, Benny Hin is this like huge you go to a Benny-Hin, you know Benny-Hin is, okay Benny-Hin is this like huge
Evangelical preacher on TV and he's the guy who will like hitch on the head and then tell you you're cured of M.A.
Or some bullshit stuff that's never been true right?
It's all bullshit. It's fake. It's a big show, but he puts on this big show big lights big show and what he does is
He starts the music the second you walk in the door and he swoops to a corscendo, and hour later.
Yes, you have been manipulated.
Your mind is in a totally different headspace
and you think this stuff is happening
and it's because of God when maybe, right?
But probably the more realistic answer is
that it has been designed to do that.
He'll song catches on to this
and they start doing this with regularity
and super effectively.
Now, I'm about to do something that I'm not gonna put
this on YouTube, but I'm about to do something that I have
never done at the commercial break and that is I am going
to play a song because I wanna play this song.
Okay.
And I want you to hear this song.
This is Oceans by the Hillsong Band.
There's a girl who's singing this,
there's got a very incredible voice, but this is a live version of this.
All of their live songs are seven to 12 minutes long.
They all start out very hypnotically
and then they move into this crazy callback,
I sing a verse, using a verse,
I sing a verse, using a bark back to the audience.
And listen to this song and tell me that if you listen
to this for like 15
minutes straight you wouldn't feel some kind of emotion either. Yeah okay ready let's play this
this is called oceans I walk by the side or some shit and this is just as good as any popular
music that's out there today starting slow of course it's and listen look it's eight minutes long.
Come on singing. Come on singing.
Tonight's your prayer.
Sing your prayer to me.
Feel it in your bones.
Look at my body.
Look at my body! I'm so happy.
I'm so happy.
Look at my body!
This chord progression is known as major minor chord progression, I think, right?
And so what it's doing is it's hitting on a note that sounds happy and familiar, and
then it's moving down to a note that sounds more dramatic and sad.
Look at my heart.
I'm so happy.
When the ocean's rising, I'm so happy.
Look how many people are there?
There's 10,000 fucking people in this video.
You gotta see this video, but I'm not gonna put out, but you gotta see it because YouTube
will just demonetize it anyway.
Okay, now I'm gonna fast forward, get it?
Okay, I get it.
Now this builds for another.
I either get the drums coming in and the xylophone.
Oh yeah.
It's a whole orchestral thing, right?
Yeah.
Now I'm gonna fast forward about three minutes in the song
I got some hypnotic looking stuff going on in the back, too
Now listen, here's the callback in response. They sing this over and over again
Oh, sorry The guitar is coming in.
It's getting louder, it's getting faster. You're a new girl, shake your table, shake your tables and I'll say you'll never want
And I'm so full of you.
Look at these people, they are hypnotized.
They are.
This crescendos into some craziness.
Boom.
Yes, boom, just like your favorite song would do, right?
Yeah.
And they do it again, over and over again.
Crescendo, crescendo, crescendo, louder and louder, faster and faster, more instruments.
You are totally mesmerized in hypnotism.
Right, you're in it.
Right.
And it's hip and it's cool.
And it's not the same things that your parents were singing.
It is something completely different, right?
This is not the hymns of the church.
This is modern music.
This is Adele.
This is Whitney Houston.
This is whoever.
So they get these fucking young kids
wrapped up in this craziness.
Brian Houston starts this and it starts out small.
He puts it in the middle of a major metropolitan city
in Australia and he starts treating it almost like a nightclub.
It's an event.
Right, yeah.
Church starts at 7.30 pm.
It goes till midnight.
You gotta, there's a red carpet that you're walking. Like it's an event. It, yeah. Church starts at 7.30 pm, it goes till midnight. You gotta, there's a red carpet that you're walking.
Like, it's a concert.
Multi-million dollar stage productions,
it's mainly music with a charismatic preacher.
And so he breaks out and decides he's,
he starts a college, like this church starts to get huge.
People are going fucking bananas.
Do you know how many plays that one video that I just showed you has
486 million plays on YouTube. There's over a million likes on that video
That's insane the amount of money they're generating just from one video. Yeah, it's insane
So now Brian decides he's going to open up
Church in the United States in downtown New York. Yeah. And instead of getting a church space,
he gets a live music venue.
And that's where he puts the church every Sunday at 7.30.
Uh-huh.
And he gets this charismatic preacher named Carl Lentz.
Carl Lentz is the guy that we've seen
with Justin Bieber, Kendall Jenner, all these celebrities.
Young, super-smoking hot guy, dresses to the nines.
Right, and beautiful wife, and the kids,
the perfect, yeah, hip, cool.
Clip, cool.
Because there's a little, I think, right?
Yeah, he becauseses, I'll tell you, you know.
Don't let God fucking get away from, you know,
and people are like, oh, he's us, he's like us.
Yeah.
People in New York go crazy about this.
Oh, yeah, they have.
Because they know that any place that there's a line
with 150 people waiting to get in,
it's a place they want to be.
And Justin Bieber.
And Justin Bieber, that's right.
And it starts getting almost,
this guy has more fame than anybody
in this particular preacher circle, right?
Yeah.
He starts getting secret service like security.
People come in and they'll do like a sweep of the facilities before he shows up.
He's talking in front of 25,000 people that music's playing.
People are going crazy.
They've got VIP sections.
They start bringing like they have 35 named celebrities in the front row.
And you know, all the plians have to sit in the back.
It's a whole thing.
They're selling records.
There have a donation box that's getting folded
a fucking gullet and Carl Lent.
Can't have no taxes.
No taxes and buying property all over the world
and Carl Lent's is the superstar of this show.
Brian Houston's doing this thing in Australia,
but it's really Carl Lent's in America
who is just having a fucking grand old time, right?
You want to hear a little bit of Carl?
You want to hear him talk a little bit?
Sure.
Okay, let's look at this guy.

He's the king of preacher.
He's the lower cut tank top.
Oh yeah.
I want to have sex with this guy.
I'm just sharing that information out loud.
Red leather jacket.
Dating advice.
You ready for this?
Find somebody who is occupying their street.
Not watching you occupy yours.
Have no idea what that means,
but it sounds good to me. Howler back at a player if you see him in the street.
What?
I'm just 100% convinced about whatever he said.
I don't know, but I'm convinced.
The Hollerback.
Yeah, he's hot.
He's cool.
He's hip.
He's got a little bit of attitude in his voice.
You hear that voice, like the kids talk.
Hollerback at a player, you see him on a street.
You see my Yeezy's?
That's $75 million. I got him. Yeezy's? The $75 million.
I got him.
Yeezy gave him to me.
Flew him to me on a private jet.
This guy is like a rock star amongst rock stars.
He is.
One of the things he's really known for
is giving a lot of dating advice, like sex advice.
And it's all about purity.
Purity, purity, purity.
He shames people who have sex before.
I can guess where this guy is.
You see where this is going?
It's where it goes every fucking time.
Every time.
And that is whatever someone's talking about, they're not doing,
they're doing themselves.
It's like, that does protest too much.
And Carl was doing a little bit too much
protestant about his 33pp.
If you know what I mean, he was saying,
purity, purity, purity.
Let's listen to this dating about.
I find somebody who's occupying their street.
Not somebody watching you occupy yours.
I have a belief with my daughters.
My daughters are like, Dad, when is it gonna be a good time
to date?
I'm like, never, girl, you're gonna live here until you're 70.
Why?
Because I am also sleeping with a lot of young women.
I do not want to run into you at the club
and hit on you, an accident.
Okay. Carl is on fire. This is when he's a little bit younger too. They do not want to run into you at the club and hit on you unaccident.
Carl is on fire.
This is when he's a little bit younger too.
At one point he had like the longer hair and he had man bun.
But I think dating for the most part, oops sorry.
And we just man bun.
I think so.
I think so.
Do something about it.
That's the first thing.
So if you're occupying your street and you're doing great things, if you're in high school
for instance, I don't know who you're dating and what you're doing because that guy you're dating he didn't got no job
He has nothing to offer you just yet. I think it's a good idea to occupy you. Yeah, dude
He's like super strict about dating. He's like he would publicly
The guys don't have a job. Well, what are you saying? Go get a sugar daddy? Yeah, I mean first of all second
Well, you're in high school. What do you want me to do? I gotta pass my classes, unless you're gonna be like,
Brian, and working McDonald's, 40 hours a week,
like you're going to high school.
There's a famous picture of this guy.
In the famous picture is him and Justin Bieber.
I don't have the picture.
The famous picture is him and Justin Bieber.
Like walking.
Yeah, they had just played basketball or something
or walking, and both of them have their shirt off.
Well, Justin has like an open shirt,
and he has his shirt completely off.
Carl Lentz does.
And his pants are right in that like man runway.
You know what I'm talking about?
There's two little muscles that go down there
that are pointing in the direction of your flaccid cock.
I'm saying it's like a little, it's a street sign.
D, the V.
Yeah, the V. It's a neon V just pointing directly
to the happy zone and
Justin Looks like a fucking Shleb next to Carl Lentz
Justin looks like your fat old dad
I'm the beach when you were in Bears that he was still wearing socks on the beach
When he's next to Carl Lentz who looks like a man god. I mean the guy is like Jesus Christ
Reincarnate and the thing about Carl Lenses. Why as a preacher would
you ever be walking around the streets of downtown New York with your, you know, vocational V hanging
out. You just don't do that. You just don't do that. No, it's not V for victory. It's V for
vaginas go here. You know what I'm saying? Like, right.
You got over this like, why else would you be? And you know, there's
Papa Rotsie going to take pictures of me. That's the reason he was looking like that.
This is a story that has been told so many times. It's not even funny. Now,
I watched this documentary, knowing some other things about Hillsong that I think are
much more serious than Carl Lance being a douchebag, right?
Well, didn't it just come out though that he was varied? I mean, he and his wife are
getting divorced. It's the whole thing. It's a whole thing. Yeah. He was cheating.
It turns out that Carl Lentz happened to be sleeping with a couple different people while
he was talking about purity and all this other bullshit. And
got to his head.
Fame got to his head.
You know, and at first I was like, well, who really fucking cares?
Okay, the guy cheated on his wife.
Like, I mean, people cheat on their wives all the time.
And he got fired in this big public firing and Brian Houston, like, you know,
distance himself and said, listen, there, there've been some red flags for a while.
And I, you know, I want to get into it.
But basically this is the camera.
The pro, the, the, whatever is the camel that broke the camel.
The camel that broke the straws back, you know what I'm saying?
You know I go here, it's a commercial break, just twist and words.
And so, but my initial thought was, that seems awful fucking dramatic for like a relatively
common offense, right?
Maybe they could have spun it like, you know, Carl's going to go away for a little while.
He's going to get redeemed. Him and Tygar are gonna go to, you know,
you know,
you know,
but Jaina addiction classes and we'll see it in a pessex we have.
You know, the bullshit that they say they're doing.
And then he'll come back and he'll continue to sleep with you
and just keep it more on the download, it's not.
But that's not what happened.
It was like a big fucking blow up.
And Carl himself said, I did wrong, you know,
I'm stepping away, whatever. Meanwhile,
he continued to like really creepily pursue some of these women on the backside. Like when
he said he had, well, that's exactly what he was thinking about. He would send them like
three minute long videos where he'd be like, Hey girl, I'm just, you know, I'm thinking about,
you being a car like, Hey girl, I'm just thinking about you, me and the Lord are rolling down the highway.
I got my vocational V hanging out, you know, talking about.
I just got back from, you know, doing a little workout at Bebes House.
I was showing them how he gets his vocational V back.
So, you know, you know, Bebes getting a little flabby.
So I was thinking about you and I just want to know
if it's okay to think about you.
If it's okay to think about you, let me know.
That's even saying things like that, right?
Real creepy.
And he's like, and if it's okay,
I'll stop by your house every once in a while.
You know, knock on the door,
or surprise kind of thing.
You know what I'm saying?
Like real creepy, creepy bullshit.
He did a really good impression.
Thank you, totally.
It's me, Carl Lentz.
Hey, what's up, girl? It's me, Carl Lentz. Hey, what's up, girls? Me, Carl.
Shit, me and the Lord just rolling down the street.
My five, oh, you know what I'm talking about?
Listen, I was thinking about you.
I got my little Lord here.
I got my walking staff and we're going through the desert 40 days, 40 nights.
You know, I got a little trouble for you know
sending those pictures out reply all you know talking about girl
So beeps writing a song for you. I'm a sentence you a little bit later
But you know, mind if I stop by your house your work your parents house
Gonna check out see what's going on. I'm bringing some security over. We're gonna lock you down lock it down like we did last night
No talking about girl
Do me a favor.
Don't tell anybody about this.
I'm gonna put it on video and send it to you.
But don't tell anybody about it.
You're not talking about it.
Yeah, I might get a little trouble.
I'm married.
I don't know if I told you that.
But don't worry about it.
I'm with the Lord.
Lord walks with me.
I'm walking with the Lord, my savior.
But that song that girl singing oceans,
435 million, billion views. I wrote that for you girl.
Girl. It's me, Carl. It's big lens, a little lens.
It's a little car. Just here, it's shouting out to you girl.
I got my Yeezy's. I got my Chanel scarf wrapped around my vocational
V, you know, I'm talking about girl.
V is for victory.
Uh-huh.
Can I get an A-man?
Listen, do me a favor, don't post this one on Instagram like you did last time.
Appreciate a girl.
No, the NDA had to sign, don't worry about a girl. I'll rip it up.
I'm gonna leave my wife here in a couple months.
I'm gonna have to run away and get married with.
Okay, so that's all for now, I guess.
I'm just trying to chill.
If it's okay that I call you, you let me know.
You call me, you tell me that it's okay to call you
when I'm thinking about you.
Because I'm hurting.
The Lord has a big hole in my soul right now and I gotta fill my tummy. I gotta fill my tummy with that girl
love you know I'm talking about this you know it's hard for me to preach on a
full dick. Oh my god I just I was spit by. I was a good car performance.
Thanks, I appreciate you, girl.
I gotta go and touch you later.
It's me, Mr. Car, touch you later.
So, Carle has a big blow up at the whole church
in New York, it's a halt to do, right?
But that is not the worst of the offenses.
So now this is a cup, this is like a year ago.
Yeah, this happens in, but cup, this is like a year ago. Yeah.
This happens in, but the, what is really going on behind the scenes is that Frank Houston,
I think his name is Frank Houston, Frank Houston, who is Brian Houston's father, who originally
brought the church to Australia from New Zealand.
Okay.
Was actually having sex with young boys in the original church.
And Brian Houston covered it up for years and years and years.
Like they found out about it. It became a thing, but essentially it just slapped him on the wrist and
told him to, you know, go away. Don't come back to the church and please don't be in any other
positions that may put you in front of children. Well, of course, of course, that didn't. Yeah.
Yeah, he didn't listen and nor did Brian Houston try and stop it. Right.
Now, you know, that's a complicated relationship.
I understand son and father and all that whole bullshit.
But recently, like this week, all of the sudden, some of these Hillsong churches across
the United States, 50% of them by some estimations just closed the doors or changed their name.
They moved away from Hillsong because they don't want to be so including the one here in Atlanta, right?
They said we're no longer gonna be Hillsong. We're changing our name. The preacher is taking it.
It's when it doubt just rebranded.
Yeah, I mean, hey girl, I'm changing my name to Dan Wins.
Used to be Carl Linson. It's not Dan Wins, you know what I'm saying? I'll be back at church. Don't you worry.
So here's here's my point.
When we start putting these people on the pedestals, right, when we start, blue, honestly,
blue wants to get into the conversation.
Blue has some thoughts.
Blue is in 33 of the 170 episodes that we've done.
Hey, blue, can you shut up while we're recording?
Thanks.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, no, fuck you.
Run, run, run.
Should I go out there?
I know.
She's so fat.
She's like, that goes on all night in my house. Oh, Lord.
So now, so now, I swear to God about the God there.
I'm about to lose my shit.
Hey, boo, it's Carl.
It's Carl, Lance.
Hey, could you shut up for the Lord?
I'd appreciate it.
Thanks, Carl.
Thanks, Carl.
Could you chill out for the Lord?
I'd appreciate it.
You know, there's a dog you haven't, too. He might go there soon. So all these churches close, here's the point.
You, when we put earthly things in unearthly positions, this always fucking happens. One
in a lie because people are human. Now, dittling little boys, unefucking acceptable on any,
and anybody's mind,
I think anybody with a right mind
on their shoulders will agree with me on that point.
Sleeping with somebody that's not your wife,
that's I think a much lesser offense.
And I understand that, you know,
people do think like shit happens
and Carl couldn't control him.
But when you're preaching one thing
and doing the other,
and doing the other, it's so fucking hypocritical.
Yeah, it does.
But this happens all the time.
When are we gonna learn our fucking lesson?
Yeah.
Be spiritual, not religious.
And if religion helps you, God bless you.
Then keep on going to your place.
You're going to your corner church
and you love it and you love the people,
it's community, it's family to you.
Keep on doing your thing.
But don't get caught up in all this bullshit.
Don't get caught up in these crazy characters
who beg for your money.
Yeah, though these charismatic people
that get up there and just hypnotize people.
And then they're flying around brand new 747s
that are macked out with a fucking Gucci logos.
And you're still trying to make rent.
Two planes.
Yeah, two planes, because one didn't do it.
And you're still trying to make rent., cutting a hundred dollar check to these people every
week.
Don't do it.
Don't get caught up in the bullshit.
I love that.
So the right is Jim Stone's.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
So good.
So, it's a tire thing.
So I'm just putting a cap on all this.
I just want to update people on the hillside.
The documentary is fascinating.
I think I just told you most of the story.
So I've probably taken a lot of the bite out of the three part mini series, but it series But it's fascinating discovery plus it's one of the ones that I recommend that you watch and it's well done too
Okay, because at first you're like oh fucking cares so picture slept with somebody big deal, you know happens all time
But then it gets a little deeper and you're like oh I see it's all fucking thing. Yeah, okay
Now before we
Let everybody go. I wanted to end on a funny note.
Since I knew this was going to be a little bit more serious, I didn't know Carl was going to show up.
I know it was going to be more serious.
You want to hear a drunk preacher?
Just a drunk ass preacher.
Just a man who was drunk, who just decided to get out there and sing the Lord.
Sprays.
This is where Carl Lens is going to be in five years from now.
This is the church.
Carl Lens is currently up be in five years from now. This is the church Carl Lens is currently at.
You ready?
Okay, this is what I call drunk preacher.
