Marriage! Marriage is what wins us together today.
Marriage that winning arrangement that dreams within us.
On this episode of the commercial break...
Why are you here on the show?
How did this turn of events happen? Because so many times, so many times, you have said to me,
I will never go on the microphone on the commercial break. Ever, yet here you are, with me.
I guess the same reason why we're married. I still don't know. The next episode of the commercial break starts now.
Oh yeah, Kazukin.
Welcome back to the commercial break.
I'm Brian Green.
This is the reason we're all here.
The love of my life and my beautiful wife, Astrid.
Best of you, Astrid.
Best of you, Brian.
Oh my God. You can say, baby. Best to you, Brian? Oh my God!
Did I say it, baby?
You can say, baby.
It's okay.
Every once in a while, I slip a baby in there on HODLY too,
and I think she's a little taken aback by it,
and I'm sure Jeff just loves that when I slip out a baby to Chrissy.
It's just weird to me to call you Brian.
In fact, it's one of the things that you,
when you call me Astrid, I'm like, where are you up to?
Yeah, no, I totally agree with you.
When you, like, there is certain things in a marriage
that I'm sure everybody experiences this,
I wonder if people use terms of endearmate
as much as we use terms of endearmate.
So, like, other couples that we hang out with,
I see them calling each other by their proper names, right?
Astrid, Brian, I'm not gonna give examples here on the show,
but you understand what I'm saying.
Yeah, you and I always use baby, honey,
something like that unless we're angry with each other.
And so much, yeah.
Or there's two reasons why I get nervous
when you use the word Brian.
Number one, I know I'm in trouble.
Number two, somebody else is in trouble.
Like since we have so many children,
10 to 12 children, I'll stop pounding.
We're trying to get each other's attention.
Yes.
I would say we go Brian.
Yeah, astrid!
I need you to change the baby.
I don't want to touch shit.
Why are you here on the show?
How did this turn of events happen?
Because so many times, so many times,
you have said to me, I will never go on the microphone
on the commercial break.
Ever, yet here you are, with me.
I guess the same reason why we're married.
I still don't know.
You don't know why we're married.
I mean, I know we're married.
Okay, admitted it was for the green card.
And now you're a citizen and you're gonna leave me.
Yes, first of all.
I just didn't wanna go on 90 day fiance,
like on the TV show.
Yeah, I know.
So I just took a shirt card.
I think we are, I don't think we're interesting enough
to be on 90 day fiance.
True.
I think that all those people on that show
are such shit shows that you and I just couldn't compare.
I look at that show because I think there's so many comparisons
between you and I.
So those are you that don't know,
and you must know if you've been listening
to the commercial break for any period of time.
That Astrid is Venice, Whalen.
We met, we had an international love story for a long time.
I called it a love story.
You might call it torture just to get here
to the United States. But in any case, I called it a love story. You might call it torture just to get here to the United States.
But in any case, I look at our love story and I don't see any comparison between the stories that go
on in that 90 day fiance. It seems like everybody is such a shit show.
True. Yeah. And even their family is like, I don't know, it also looks so weird to me because
even though we are from different countries, That's not how our story unfolded
No, well first of all we didn't do the K1 or whatever they call it right what do they call that the 90 day the
K9
K9
They call it the dog visa
Yeah, they call it the K1 or the K9 or something like that. Yeah, yeah, but we didn't do that
So first and foremost there's there's little comparison in that.
We didn't feel pressure to get married in that day.
Yeah, I actually came multiple times just visiting to see you and spend some time with you.
It's not that, I think people in that show mostly, they met once and then they kept maintain
like a long distance relationship.
Correct. And then when they saw each other again,
after I don't know, six months, they got engaged or they got married.
And that's it.
They got the K1 visa and then they have to come over here and they feel pressured.
90 days. The only semblance of real humanity is the first season of that show.
When I think everybody, nobody knows what a huge hit it's gonna become.
And now I think the producers have the pick of the litter.
I've spoken about this before on air,
that somehow we've become the 90 day fiance show.
But I feel like the producers have so many options
to choose from at this point.
Everybody who has this kind of love story
or is going through this kind of relationship,
probably thinks at least once in their head,
maybe I should apply for 90 day fiance, the show,
because these people have become,
I wouldn't say superstars, they're not like that.
But they're kind of like influencers.
Yeah, yeah, I think that,
you know, if you want to use that term, I guess.
Yeah, nothing like Angela are talking to me on Instagram.
That crazy little bit on 90 day fiance.
I think Angela must be most one of the highest paid in the, you know,
French high.
Sure.
She's on every version of that show.
And Ed, Ed, I don't know.
There's a couple of them.
Well, I think it's really Angela Ed, maybe Jovi and his fiance are,
Yara are getting, are getting popular.
But other than that,
I think that everybody who goes on that show,
at least has a chance for fame.
Oh, those twin sisters, Darcy and Stacey.
Oh, my God, those two.
They're not their own show.
How do they get their own show
and we don't have our own show?
I mean, I guess we do have our own show.
Just no one pays us to do it.
So, you do have your own show.
I do, definitely have my own show.
Well, I'm glad to have you here nonetheless.
I was so excited when you agreed to do this
because I don't know.
I feel in a lot of ways that you're responsible
for all this crap and I think it's high time
that you get your come-up and that you come on the show.
And we can all blame you for the commercial break.
What I wanted to mention before we kind of get into
the meat and potatoes of the show is that
Chrissy is not here right now because Chrissy is dealing
with a family emergency, essentially.
And it's touch and go back and forth.
I'm sure everyone can kind of put two pieces together
if you listen to the show enough.
But Chrissy is fine and she hasn't gone anywhere
and despite her protestations, she will come back to the show.
Despite disliking me, she will be back at the show
and she will come soon.
But until then, we're doing special guest hosts,
we're doing special episodes of canned material
that we have never ran before on the commercial break
as a way to just kind of keep it bouncing along
until Chrissy can come.
So I'm so glad.
Because while I have you here,
I'm gonna ask you a couple of questions
that I know you are an expert on the subject matter.
Oh, really?
Yes.
When you said you wanted to-
Are you gonna ask me about Venezuela?
I'm not gonna ask you about it.
Ask you about it.
I have it, I have it, keep doing that show.
Do you like or dislike the voice that I do for you?
I think it's funny.
I don't think it's,
that's how my accent sounds.
No, no, no, no, no, it's way exaggerated.
I'm not even sure I'm doing it.
I really hope.
I really hope it doesn't sound like that.
No, no, no.
No.
Hi, you guys.
But the thing to me is that I feel like
when I hear you doing it,
that's also the accent you used to for your
aunt or for your friend's mom.
You said what I'm saying.
So it's like, well, you're just repurposing.
I am repurposing the same accent for your aunt, for your aunt, for my friend's mother,
and for you. For most female friend's mother, and for you.
For most female Venezuelans, that's the voice that I use,
but I can only do so much.
There's only so many voices in my head, you understand?
And I'm not even sure I'm doing a Venezuelan accent.
I think I'm just doing some goofy line accent.
So, but it's all a good fun.
Not that it's any of our business.
Shouldn't be any of our business,
but what's good for the goose is good for the gander.
And I feel like Taylor Swift has become kind of the female Pete Davidson,
so to speak, right? She is on a tear. I'm in. You're going to get the whole billions of
Swifties out there against you. Just by saying that Taylor Swift has become the Pete Davidson. Like if he was, he, okay.
He more popular than she is.
He dated Kim Kardashian.
You want me to tell you the list of people
Taylor Swift has dated?
Well, that's what I, that's what I'm asking.
The question is more pointed than that.
I don't wanna get into, it doesn't matter
how many people Taylor Swift has dated.
And I don't give a shit about her dating.
I don't care.
I mean, I don't give a shit who she dated. I'm saying the name, how, you know, celebrities people Taylor Swift has dated. And I don't give a shit about her dating. I don't care.
I mean, I don't give a shit who she dating.
What I'm saying is like the name,
how celebrities that she has dated.
Here's the comparison.
Pete Davidson is on an epic run dating beautiful women
and it seems oddly misplaced, right?
With Pete.
But with Taylor, it doesn't seem oddly misplaced,
at least physically,
because she's a beautiful woman,
and she's in the prime of her life,
and she should be out there having fun.
But with Travis Kelsey,
do you think that there's any like,
alter your motive to dating Travis Kelsey?
You don't want to say?
Well, the reality is that I don't know.
Um, I didn't even know who Travis Kelsey was.
I don't think a lot of people knew who Travis Kelsey was.
I understand now that he is a superstar.
He's a really good football player in the football community.
Um, but I don't know one thing about football.
Um, so of course I didn't know about him.
Um, now that I've seen all the pose and, you know, everything they have talked about football. So of course I didn't know about him.
Not that I've seen all the pose and everything they have talked about him.
His handsome, I think his handsome.
I think he's a good looking dude.
Yeah.
If it's, I don't know if it's PR or not.
In my brain, why?
PR for what?
Well, she doesn't need it.
I think you're giving us an example of why.
You have nothing to do with the NFL.
You don't care.
You have no understanding of what the game's all about.
So you think it's more of from his side than her side?
I wonder if maybe the relationship is earnest.
You don't know anything about the NFL,
but now all of a sudden you're paying attention
to Travis Kelsey. I don't know anything about the NFL, but now all of the sudden you're paying attention
to Travis Kelsey.
I don't know if the relationship is fake.
I don't think it's like all a PR stunt,
but I wonder if the NFL has really,
I mean, it's obvious.
They have really taken this opportunity
to welcome in people who otherwise
may not have anything to do with the NFL.
I've heard that the NFL is trying to cater to mothers
who may not allow their, may not have ever wanted
their children to play football
and they're trying to soften up the image a little bit.
Well, I'm not solving that.
No, no, no.
After, like I don't care.
No.
And also like I'm really not, well also I'm not like
a crazy swifty, which, no I'm not.
You think I am, but I am really not. Well, I don't think you're a crazy swie. No, I'm not. You think I am, but I am really not.
Well, I don't think you're a crazy Swiftie.
No, meaning like I love them.
I think what they do, it's very nice, it's very fun.
But I don't even get the emails that tell you,
I know some real Swifties and you know them too.
But I don't, I'm still not like, I'm not falling Travis Kelsey.
Like I now know who he is, like I know his face,
but I'm not like doing research about him or anything like that.
I don't care. Like, okay, whatever.
Well, this, I've watched so many videos about this now.
And it seems like there are many people mostly
men mostly white mostly middle age like me who are not falling for the bait so to speak they
think that the NFL is paying too much attention to this relationship they think that the newscasters
the broadcasters of the NFL games are paying too much attention to the relationship and they think
it's just a circus that is intended to bring attention to the NFL in general,
Taylor Swift maybe, Travis Kelsey, he's a rising star,
he's been a star in the NFL for a while,
maybe that's a reason to focus in on the relationship
and all of the excitement that goes with it.
My never ending curiosity
around what these huge superstars do or don't do to get pressed.
Like is this a press stunt, is this a PR stunt?
And could be, maybe, yeah.
Like Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson, is that a press stunt?
I mean, the reality is like we would never know.
We would never know.
I just feel like from her perspective,
like what amount of PR do you need more than all
that you have gotten this year with your tour?
If you want to bite on the apple,
if you want to bite on the conspiracy apple, right?
Some people are saying that Taylor is already so incredibly popular that there's only one base of people that she can pull more fans from, and that would be men, right? Guys,
dudes who would listen to her music or who would otherwise not feel comfortable saying
I like Taylor Swift's music.
But let's be honest about that.
I don't think that that-
I don't think that's a thing.
That's about words.
I don't think just-
How much is enough?
I mean, you have a billion people that listen to you.
And also, like, yeah, do you want to like
every single person on earth to like your music?
I get it.
Well, that could be a dream, right?
Yeah.
But what, I mean, I don't, I mean,
I don't know her personally clearly.
I'm not her friend.
I wish you did.
I wish too, but I would assume that I don't think
she's worried about losing fans or getting more fans.
I mean, I think she's done well enough.
I think she has.
I can't imagine being Taylor Swift for a day right now.
I just can't imagine it.
She is so incredibly well known.
She is so popular.
She is so rich.
She is so powerful.
But it's gotta be like living in a fish bowl.
You know what I'm saying?
It's got every moment of your life is scrutinized,
everything that you do, everything that you say.
You have almost no personal freedoms
unless you can't plan out ahead of time.
That has to be tough.
I imagine.
Especially also in the dating world,
because then someone that's gonna date you,
they really have to be confident on themselves.
I mean, they're really exposing their entire lives
from the moment they decide to date you.
Travis Kelsey was already very popular
amongst those who were in the NFL.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's like what I saw this one,
real of a guy's like in a podcast
that they were talking about this topic and one of them said
Kind of like defending like the NFL side. He was like, yeah, but like Travis Kelsey, you know, he's like a superstar his one, you know
This and that super balls and all that and and he has like 20 million followers on Instagram. Of course. I mean, clearly he is a star. Yeah.
But then the other guy says yeah, dude, but Taylor Swift has
300 million followers on Instagram. It's more like Taylor Swift is famous worldwide. Absolutely. Where as Travis his famous in the United States
Which granted is a huge country, right?
And therefore he has, he's very popular,
but he's probably here.
Like if you talk about Travis Kelsey,
I don't know, in Madrid, in,
you know, eight hours out of forever,
they're gonna be like,
who the fuck is Travis Kelsey?
If you say the guy that's dating Taylor Swift, then they're gonna be like, oh no is Travis Kelsey if you say it's a guy that's dating Taylor Swift
Then they're gonna be like that. You're so right about this in 20 million followers
I mean we were lucky to have 2000 followers on Instagram. You know what I'm saying and not even yeah
And I know what it's like to live in that fish bowl that fame fish bowl
It's really it's difficult. I mean that one time I was noticed by someone
Care locally. I can't and it time I was noticed by someone, care locally.
I can't, and it was uncomfortable.
It was an uncomfortable feeling.
It was kind of exciting.
It was kind of interesting.
But it was also an uncomfortable feeling
that you could be picked out in a crowd
for something that you do that I consider my work.
Now Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift
were both living in this fishbowl.
That is the Taylor Swift world,
and it's gotta be insanely intense to do that.
I can't imagine.
I personally think, like my take on this,
is that Taylor and Travis have a real relationship.
They are dating.
They didn't, I don't think this is a pre-planned,
pressed stunt.
I don't think the NFL is paying her money to do this.
I don't think, I don't
believe in all the conspiracy bullshit. I believe that they had a relationship and that
she has drawn a lot of attention to the relationship because she shows up at the games and she's
in the box with other famous people. I mean, that's just like, that's good PR on behalf
of Taylor.
But that's something like, let's say you were a football player, right?
And we were dating.
Well, of course, at some point I want to go and support you and watch you play your
game. That's what you do, right?
Just like if I was, I don't know, a dancer or a singer or something, you would want
to come to one of my shows.
Eventually, if, you know, the relationship, it's like serious enough, I guess that.
So, yeah, that's the attention she gets.
She's just doing something normal.
If you're really, if she's really dating him and they've been dating for a couple of months
or whatever, well, it's only, it only makes sense.
It's only natural for her to want to go and support him.
Yeah.
And for him to have her there, right?
Yeah. And of course, his family also goes,
I would think that's very normal.
Sure.
The difference here is that Taylor Swift
cannot take one step without...
No, she can't take one step anywhere.
That movie that she has of the concert tours,
it's like hundreds of millions of dollars,
are you going tomorrow?
It's hundreds of millions of dollars
that movie has already made.
There are movies with Jennifer Aniston in it
and Tom Hanks in it that have not made
hundreds of millions of dollars.
So I saw it post last night that she made.
The yesterday was like the premiere.
So she wasn't a lay doing all of that event.
And she posted that because of unprecedented sales,
they had to add another date so that movie
is actually available now today, starting today
because they had to add Thursday.
It was coming out on Friday.
Wow.
And they had to add Thursday.
So, as we record right now,
the movies available.
Those tickets for today are gonna be,
she said she was releasing them at 10 a.m.
She's in Christ.
What, what an incredible story this woman has.
She is the most famous person on Earth right now.
I mean, besides Jesus Christ,
and a couple of others, right?
But she is getting to Michael Jackson level thing.
I think, this is once in a generation.
Once in a lifetime, do you see this kind of superstar come out?
And I applaud it. I think it's fantastic. I think it's great.
I love... She's very talented.
She's very talented. You know, it's not my favorite music in the world.
But I can listen to some of her songs and not want to turn off the radio.
Like, there are some songs that I think are catchy.
She smells wonderful. That's a plus. You know, I have Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift came to radio station that I was working. I was working in a cluster of radio stations
on the business side. And Taylor Swift, right when her first album came out and it was a country
album, she came to the local country station and a couple of us got to see her and
then she did a performance of that album inside of a room.
And so we got, you know, yeah, but at that time she was not even half.
No, at that time, it was crazy in the building.
It was crazy.
No, I'm telling you, it was crazy in the building.
People were fighting to get upstairs to see Taylor Swift.
She has been a rocket engine since the moment
that she's-
That's like 2008, something like that, I think.
2009, yeah.
I was like in senior year, yeah, I remember.
Yeah, I was 52 years old.
Yeah.
The age difference, let's read this is crazy.
All right, so we're gonna take a quick break
and then I wanna play a game with you.
Let's play the newlywed game.
You and I have answered some questions ahead of time.
It's the newlywed game.
We're far from newlyweds,
so we should be able to answer these questions.
Okay, we're gonna take a short break.
We'll be right back.
As much as I'm sure you love listening to Brian Drone-On,
we really do have some bills to pay, like my salary.
So go to tcbpodcast.com to find all of our audio and video.
Check out our Instagram at the commercial break,
our TikTok at tc TCB Podcast, and of
course our YouTube channel at youtube.com slash the commercial break. You can also text us
at 855-TCB-8383 with your thoughts and probably concerns. And now let's listen to some
sponsors so I can continue to have a job.
Alright, we're back from break.
I'm here with Astrid, my wife, the woman who said she would never be on the commercial
break, but is responsible for the commercial break.
It's all your fault.
I blame you, so does Chrissy.
Hello, hello, hello.
And just a reminder, everybody, Chrissy will be back soon.
She's taking some time to be with family during a tough time.
So we are giving her that space to do that
Astrid has volunteered to come on the show and what better way to prove
What's that you drug me many times but for that for today? No, I don't even understand
Home here. You've never even done drugs. You wouldn't even know if you were drugged or not
It's true or not sure you've never done an arctic in your life. Never. Never. And she's saying that just
for air. She's actually not even crack head off.
Ever smoked a cigarette. Yeah. You've never smoked a
cigarette. Never. Like try it. Nothing. That's just amazing to
me. That seems amazing to me. I don't know. When someone
offered me all that kind of stuff, I just felt like it was my
obligation, my duty, my responsibility as a human being, to
see what it was all about. No, I just wanted to get fucked up.
I think we just need to ask my parents' strategy
to making me feel such a big fear of trying any of those things.
Oh, they did it right.
Our kids are gonna watch this and they're gonna be like,
well, that didn't mind me.
I think we should take the commercial break off the internet
before any of our children get old enough to understand.
Because this is the thing that keeps me up at night.
It really does.
We might be late. We might be late.
We might be late for that.
Yeah.
The kids now are born.
They come out of the womb knowing how to work an iPhone.
Did you notice that?
The youngest of our 11 or 12 children now knows how to point
to a phone and swipe left or right.
No, no, no, no.
She's already on Tinder.
Basically, she's already practicing for,
I want to go.
And after Christina's nightmare stories about being on
hinge, I just, I'm telling you, lock him in the basement. That's the only option we have
asteroid. We don't. Yes. I mean, listen, I know you talk from your own experience. I do.
So it's the only one I have. Clearly, there's a lot of wild things that you did when you
were growing up. I might have been a bit of a hellcat.
However, there are other people like me,
whose childhood and teenage years
were not as crazy as yours, so there's hope for a kid.
There is hope for a kid.
Like they can turn out just okay.
And this is now the only episode of the commercial break
that our lot's listened to.
So when were their mother tells them not to do drugs?. Alright, what better way to prove that we are actually married than to do a little game
that we've put together and we took some time last night to answer some questions so without
further ado.
We are going to play, do you know your spouse?
A series of questions, I think there's 20 of them here.
We have independently answered these questions so as not to trick each other, so to speak,
so not to change our mind here on air.
Whatever's on the paper goes, there's a couple of these I answered, I gave two answers,
just to give you a chance at actually winning, because I don't think you know me at all.
But not, I didn't, not because I was thinking about giving you options, but because my brain
is so indecisive.
It's true when I was writing these down, I'm like, I can't think of just one thinking about giving you options, but because my brain is so indecisive.
It's true when I was writing these down.
I'm like, I can't think of just one.
I need a couple of them.
Alright, so here we go.
Do you know your spouse?
Let's go.
You ready?
You want me to ask questions?
Or you ask questions?
We can do one and one.
Okay, I'll go first.
Ladies first.
No, you do first.
Okay, ask for it.
The question is, what is your favorite ice cream flavor?
So now I say yours. Now you tell me what you think might be.
Okay, yours is definitely a men chocolate chip.
It's men chocolate chip or it's Snickers. You got that one right.
I think we need a pen so that we can keep score or something.
Yeah, but this I have to clarify. This Snickers true, but I think that one's temporarily.
But yet like your overall favorite, it's Menchoklet chick. My overall favorite, anywhere we go in the world,
is gotta be Menchoklet chick, because they don't have Snickers in many places.
But like currently, you're on a Snickers' kick. Yes, I am an obsessive eater, so when I get one
thing in my head, I start eating it for months and months in a row until I throw up and then I stop eating that I move on to the next thing
But don't worry, I'll be back cereal and creams coming back. It's make it's all the rage. Oh, no, no
With the kids
This is a very difficult question for me to answer for you because you change your mind every single time that we go to the ice cream store
You have or the ice cream shop you have to get a new flavor because that's how you do it
They that's how you do it.
That's why they sell 50 ice cream flavors
so that every time you go, you enjoy a different flavor.
I don't know.
I like to stick with the,
I mean, I do have the,
I like to dance with the girl who brought me.
I do have like a,
I would say like an overall favorite.
Favorite?
But, but,
well, I would say my overall favorite thing is ice cream.
So that's what I was going to say.
Astrid likes ice cream and he favors.
No, there's one that I actually hate and you know which one it is.
Mint chocolate chip.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Of my favorite is your least favorite.
How like, you Americans are so weird.
Well, be careful now.
Be careful now. That's a good yourself in trouble.
I know that min chocolate chip is now the thing.
No, but with that specific, like the min chocolate stuff,
like or mined candy or...
No candy, but like...
And then Christmas comms and then it's like,
Peppermint milkshake, it's like, how gross?
I know, my dad likes that shit,
but there is a difference between mint chocolate chip
and peppermint, you realize that, right?
I know, but like in Venezuela,
like those are things we use,
like for a mojito, you know,
like we don't really use mint for cooking.
I think it's so good.
I can't explain.
Or like sweets.
It's just to me that's a weird thing.
Like why would you put on a ch...
Like, to me, you ruined the chocolate.
If you put mint on it.
Oh, I think it's a compliment.
I love a mint chocolate chip milkshake.
You know I do, girl?
Ugh.
Okay.
All right.
You just get that one.
It's not really your favorite.
You just get it so that I don't take a sip.
Well, that's true.
Because ever since the day that we met,
you have been taking the food off of my plate.
I know I'm not the only one who suffers from this.
Okay, well, that's basic magic.
I'll never forgive you for drinking the last of the
orngina in France.
Never.
I'm never gonna forgive her for taking the last sip
of orngina in France.
I was thirsty and astrid.
What I went to the bathroom drank the rest of my orngina.
Damn you, I'm still pissed.
You know, they had more in the restaurant
like we could have ordered more.
Well don't try and talk common sense to me girl. I married you.
Okay, so which one is my favorite ice cream flavor?
Well, I think that chocolate would be your favorite overall flavor.
Like if you could only have one ice cream for the rest of your life,
I think you would just have a regular chocolate.
What? Which one is it?
I already knew I was going to win this.
Well, what did you put?
Cookies and cream.
Ah!
Cookies and cream, Oreo!
It is like, I do like chocolate ice cream, but my favorite ice cream is always something
that has something crunchy on it.
Okay, fair enough.
And you do often get cookies and cream ice cream.
So I should have thought about that one,
but I didn't, because I'm a boy.
And we don't think all that hard.
Go!
All right, question number two.
Question two.
What is your most humorous, irrational fear or phobia?
I think I didn't read that.
What is your most humorous, irrational fear or phobia? I think I didn't read that. What is your most humorous, irrational fear or phobia?
Okay.
Okay.
What is my most irrational fear or phobia? Tell me.
Well, I wrote two.
Okay, go ahead.
Poop.
It's so true.
And blue.
And blue, I'm not scared of blue.
I don't have an irrational fear of blue.
But you do have a like a phobia.
I wouldn't call it a phobia, I call it a high irritation.
I get so stressed out when blue starts barking and won't shut up,
it stresses me out to no end, and then also when she poops all over the house,
so you're right about this.
And I do not like poop. It is an irrational fear.
I don't think it's an irrational fear.
Actually, poop is not something we're supposed to be welcoming into our life.
I'm not saying I like it. But like you really...
I really hate it.
Like, you know, to you, don't get me wrong. Like it's not like, oh, my favorite hobby is
changing my, you know, kid's diapers. Well, poop, no. But I'm like, okay, well, like I'm
okay to deal with it.
Like, any if I get, you know,
like I just wash my hands and that's it.
Whereas you, you like really freak out.
It's like you get stressed.
I do know shit.
Oh my god, all these poop or whatever.
Every time, like, example, the other day,
one of our daughters, I went to go change her diaper
to put her into, I took off her diaper
to put her into the bathtub. into, I took off her diaper to put her into the bathtub.
And when I took off her diaper, I hadn't realized that she had pooped.
So then she kicked the diaper off of the changing table and the poop went everywhere.
Me, her, everywhere.
And I literally freaked out.
I know you start calling me.
I can't take it. Yeah, I have to call in.
I'm not sure.
I probably should have thought about this before I had children or a fucking dog.
All right, I know what's your most irrational humorous
fear of phobia is.
It's insects.
Is your most irrational fear of phobia?
Oh, look.
Bugs and weird animals.
But the other thing that I put is my driving.
You have an irrational fear of my driving.
Yes. No, it's not irrational. It have an irrational fear of my driving. Yes.
No, it's not irrational.
It is irrational.
It is not.
I'm a perfectly legitimate driver.
I drive very well.
It's not.
I am.
I drive well.
My foot is a little heavy.
I do drive fast.
Sure you want us to do a...
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I don't want you to know.
The people that you know.
No, I do not.
People that we know, who else do you think
does it like my driving?
Who else does it like my driving?
You're brothers. My brothers don't like my driving since when?
Since baby if I know it and I've only known them for eight years
That's like a lifetime to some people. Do they say they don't like my driving?
Do they say that behind my back? No, not behind your back. They say it in front of you
Well, I did wonder why everyone that no one wants to drive with me
It's like people are just like, I'm not driving.
I'm not driving with Brian.
Okay, fair enough.
I'm a little heavy-footed,
but I don't, I'm a safe driver in general.
Maybe not.
Okay, fair enough.
All right, question number three.
What reality show were you obsessed with as a teen?
Okay, this is a hard one for me.
I know.
Because we're from different generations.
And we're from different countries.
Correct.
So, of course, I know mine.
I know yours.
And it might be actually...
I know mine.
Is one that I liked?
Yes.
But I have no idea.
I almost was going to text your twin brother to ask him.
He wouldn't have known that because he wasn't into the,
he was not into the reality shows at first.
I think it took him a while to get onto it.
I'm not even sure he likes reality shows anymore.
So which one do you...
Oh no, what about yours was probably one of like the year she?
Shores?
Jersey Shore?
No, that was even, that wasn't in my teens.
Yeah, I was just in my, maybe like my mid 20s.
I think yours is the Hills or Laguna Beach, one of the two.
Laguna Beach.
Laguna Beach, which I also like.
I like Laguna Beach, but that's not my teens.
Because reality television did not come along
until I was well into my teens, really
late teens. And that would actually know when I was 15 or 16, the real world.
Do you even know what the real world is? The very first reality show? I have like a
little picture, like a little memory of it. But I think it was really young. And also
I don't even think you were born yet. Cable in my house was like on and off like spotty. Yeah. Third world problem.
Third world problems. So yeah, I think no. Reality. Real world is the very first
real considered the very first reality show where they put a bunch of strangers
into a house and see how they reacted to each other. It was interesting.
Interesting concept. And I was fascinated from the moment that it came on
television. I was a reality show guy from the moment that reality shows came on the scene.
Okay, question number four.
Okay.
If you were only allowed to watch one streaming platform for the rest of your life, which
one would it be?
For you, it's Netflix.
Yes, true.
It's a one that I like.
I have the most amount of shows that I like.
Yeah, yeah.
They have those sappy, lobst, those sappy, cheesy,
love movies on.
For you, though, it's really hard,
because I think you really cannot live
without all the streaming platforms.
I love all of them.
It's my job.
It's my job to review media.
Well, yeah, now that you have the commercial break,
but even before the commercial break,
I wrote for you, not wrote, I thought HBO.
HBO Max is what I wrote.
That's what I wrote.
HBO Max plus minus Turner Classic,
you know, Cartoon Network Television,
whatever they call that this day.
I don't think I could live with it.
I think some of my favorite shows are on that HBO Max
and one of my favorite series in general.
If I could watch that television series for the rest in general. If I could watch that television series
for the rest of my life, I would watch that television series.
Are you talking about the West Wing?
Yes.
It's such a great show.
It's such a great show.
I hear you, but like, you watch it like 100 times.
Not 100 times, but I've probably been through it
at least five times.
The entire series.
Was it five times?
No, I don't think so, but I've been through it a lot.
I mean, there's like 68 episodes.
So, I mean, the West Wing for you is like friends or other people, I guess.
It is, and I just, like, I don't know.
Remember we tried to watch friends when they did that reunion, and it just didn't, I don't
know.
It didn't age well to me.
I mean, I can rewatch episodes like here and there of friends, but, yeah, when we actually
tried to like sit down and redo the whole
Astro, yeah, Astro now I tried to go do like a rewatch during the pandemic and we didn't get through episode one
We were both like this is boring. This is stupid. Yeah, I just felt like we could be using our time to watch something new like the West Wing
All right question number five
If you were to enter an eating contest, what food would be your number one pick?
You could ask any member of my family your answer and they all know.
They all know.
Burgers.
Burgers is not what I wrote.
What I wrote was...
Serial with cre...
Or milkshakes,
one of the two, but burgers is a good,
it's a good second option.
I could see why you would think that,
because I do love a good cheeseburger every third day.
Okay, like a walking heart attack waiting to happen.
What about mine?
I think that yours would be Takenios or sushi, one of the two.
No.
I didn't get it right.
What?
Cookies and ice cream?
Cookies or ice cream.
Cookies are ice cream.
I would have guessed, when I think about,
there's nothing in this world that I eat more than cookies.
And you know this.
I know, but you really love sushi.
And you really love to eat.
No, but I really love like one specific roll
from the place we buy in. That's true. Like I'm not like. And not even technically to play it. No, but I really love like one specific role from the place we buy in.
That's true.
Like I'm not like.
And not even technically that's sushi.
I think it's a fried fish.
Yeah, because I'll fry fish.
I don't like anything raw, so.
Yeah, I know.
I'm with you.
I like real sushi.
I saw that for sure.
All right, question number six.
If you could redesign Mount Rushmore, which any four faces...
Oh, sorry.
If you could redesign Mount Rushmore with any four faces, who would you choose?
Oh god, I really had a hard time with this because I have no idea. I'm thinking, I don't know.
For you, Taylor Swift, the Jonas Brothers, maybe all three of them.
I don't know. Juan Guido, I'm not sure.
Juan Guido, I'm going. No way. You don't like Juan? Good old Guido.
I know, this is a tough question because I thought, well, should I go like the funny round?
Yes.
Or like, are we going to go the funny round?
Well, I did it like the serious.
Okay, so I'll be what you think my serious ones were.
Wait, I want to hear yours.
What are yours?
So I wrote Nelson Mandela and Frank.
Okay.
Amelia Earthard and Walt Disney.
Oh wow, very interesting.
I would.
Well, no, I have to say this.
Okay, go ahead.
So for you, I thought you would definitely put Howard Stern.
Mm.
Eddie Vetter.
Mm.
Walt Disney.
Okay.
And I don't know.
Jennifer Anderson, I don't know.
So that would have been a good,
that you got one of them, right, which was Eddie Vetter.
And I'm thinking of this like, you know, obviously sarcastically, right?
Of course.
Eddie Vetter, Anthony Bourdain, Mahatma Gandhi, and Rosa Parks.
But if we put a fifth face, I put Frankie B. Ha ha those are very interesting well thought out choices on your behalf.
I would have guessed something different.
I would have guessed you would have gone like, you know, pop stars or something like that.
But you went with some very serious choices.
Listen, I...
You're a...
Renaissance woman.
A woman of the people.
I love you. I really do.
Thanks, babe.
You know I hate interrupting Brian when he's yammering, but he's always yammering, so
it's kind of my only option.
Anyway, it is about that time for me to remind you to go to TCPpodcast.com, text us at 855-TCB-8383
and check out our socials at the commercial break on
Instagram and at TCB podcast on TikTok. Go on, Brian needs this. And don't forget to
go to youtube.com slash the commercial break for fully edited videos. I promise
you're gonna love them. Also, it would mean the world to us if you'd support us
by supporting our sponsors. So let's have a listen to them, and then we'll get back to this episode of the Commercial Break.
All right, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, ahead, go ahead. For you? Yes.
I think for you,
it's a combination of sweet,
salty, and spicy.
Sweet, salty, and spicy.
Oh, why do you think that?
Explain.
Really?
No, okay.
That would explain, nevermind. I put No, okay. That's what I explained, nevermind.
I put sweet and sour.
You were looking at this, what I thought I was thinking.
But then I also put sweet and sour for you, too.
That's what I was gonna say.
I was gonna say, I think we're both sweet and sour.
Yes, I got it right.
Oh, that's why you wrote for you.
That's what I wrote for me that I was sweet and sour.
So I got right this sweet.
Yeah, you got right this sweet.
I got this sour. But for you, I put sweet and sour. So I got right this sweet. Yeah, you got right this sweet. I got this sour.
But for you, I put sweet and sour,
because you are a very, very sweet woman.
But when you get sour, just like all of us,
when you get sour, you get very sour.
You're very sour.
But you don't get angry, you just get sour.
Okay, your turn.
Oh, this is the funny one.
Okay.
I like this one.
Which movie do you most regret wasting two hours of your life on?
Now for you, it's very easy.
For me to guess yours.
Okay.
Because I clearly know that I've made you watch movies.
The terrible, terrible movies.
It's, I have PTSD. It's like I'm a prisoner.
Most recently I would say the one that we watch in the movies. All the love, all of the
stars falling down through the stars or whatever it was called. What was it called?
Happy, everything. Happy everything. You don't even remember the name of the movie
that's how bad it was. Well it's based on the after books. But yeah, I have to say, I'm a fan of the books, but the last movie.
Astrid, that movie was so comically terrible.
It had no plot.
It had...
Because it's really not even though that's a sequel, that's the fifth movie,
but there's only four books.
So the fifth movie, it's based on nothing.
They just decided to drag like the whole thing out
for one extra movie that they only showed for one night and we were one of 16 people
that were sitting there watching it at least in our local movie theater and let me explain
to the audience just to give you some frame of reference because I'm sure you did not
see this movie.
The actress in this movie also thought the movies were so bad.
She refused to show up for the last movie.
Because of what I'm saying.
Yeah.
She did not want to take it down step further.
And the author, both the author and the main actress, she said no.
She didn't want to do it.
I'm going to do it a fifth because that's not really the bugs.
So, listen, so the actress and the author decide that they're not a part of this fifth extra movie
that they're gonna write, just drag out the ending,
this whole thing for literally two hours.
All you see is flashbacks of this woman
from the old movie and this guy drinking,
bruising himself, finding peace and serenity,
there is, it's a meandering piece of shit movie
that is comically bad.
And if I didn't have such a good sense of humor,
I would have walked out of the movie.
Because it was terrible.
But I also put 50 Shades of Grey,
which is also extraordinarily terrible.
Oh, that one's better.
No, I don't think so, babe.
Yeah, it was.
Okay, my opinion, no.
Listen, I like a good love story.
I can get into it every once in a while.
There's some that we've watched
that I thought are really good.
50 shades of gray is a class in bad acting. It's a class of bad acting.
It's not.
Oh, come on. You gotta admit. Baby, you gotta admit it's a little funny.
No, you're not gonna admit that. You just want to fuck date Jamie Darnett. That's all you
want to do. All right, so what movie did you waste two hours of your life?
Well, you have to answer for me.
I think you would probably say,
mmm, what movie did you fall asleep to when we first met
that I was so excited for you to watch
and then you fell asleep during it?
Ah.
Oh no, the one we left?
No, no, no, no. Not the one we left.
Oh, that was a waste of four hours of our time.
I don't even want to say that out loud, because we're going to garner a bunch of hate about that.
I know, I'm about to gain a lot of haters by my response.
Oh, let's answer this next question.
Yeah, what is your response?
Star Wars.
Star Wars!
Babe!
Star Wars is one of the best movies ever made!
Seriously, I just don't get it. I don't know. It might be a generational thing. or is Babe Star Wars is one of the best movies ever made?
Seriously, no, I just don't get it.
I don't know.
It might be a generational thing.
Maybe you weren't all caught up in the hype.
I might be because.
But there are plenty of young people that love that movie.
The only Star Wars movie I watched
was like the one that came out like five years ago
or something that we went to the movies.
Oh yeah.
And I was counting the minutes down.
OK, that movie was terrible.
That movie was terrible.
I did not like it.
Think you're talking about the second star wars
in the series of new movies?
Yeah, I don't know.
OK, I didn't like it.
It was terrible.
I agree with you.
OK.
OK.
Go ahead.
What's your best hidden talent?
I don't know.
That's a really hard one.
It's not hidden into me. Yeah, I
Will see this you sing in the car when we first met and we were coming back to Atlanta
And we had our tunes going on and we were madly in love and holding each other's hand and
Driving down the road you were singing and I actually thought you had a good voice like I thought your singing voice was good
You're the first and the only person that well
I might be the first of the only person that's ever heard you sing. I don't know. I thought I thought it was good
I do like singing yeah, but I don't think I have a good you don't think you have a good singing voice
Yeah, give yourself some I don't think I could have been a singer
Okay, well, I wouldn't take it that far. That's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying I think you have a good voice
Okay, what do you think my hidden talent is I?
Put podcasting well, yeah, but it's not hidden anywhere. Well not anymore
Yeah, but I don't know if this isn't hidden, but I'm outbaking. Yeah.
All right.
Ready?
If you could pick up and go anywhere in the world right now,
where would you go?
I think you would go to somewhere beachy.
Yes.
Mallorca.
Mallorca was my answer.
For sure.
Mallorca, Polensha, probably more specifically,
is where Polensha, is where I would spend my time. For sure. My Orca plentia probably more specifically is where plentia
I's where I would spend my time if I could be there right now
Literally I would fly right there right now and spend a month there and it would not bother me
I think you also would go to a beach location, but I think it would be different. I think you would go to a ruba
You know, I thought about writing that I didn't write it though, but it was on the list.
Oh, it was?
What did you put?
I actually have a whole list.
Okay, tell me your whole list.
Yes, I would say I would rather be on a beach, beachy area.
So I wrote, I don't know, the Maldives, Greece.
Okay.
Mallorca.
Mallorca.
And this is not beachy, but it's on my
Top three list the place I want to go Iceland Iceland Very interesting, but is that a place you've never been there? So you don't know what it's like, right?
So you can and I've never been to the mall dives. Yeah, we've never been to the mall dives
Got up with them to go to the Maldives. That would be awesome. All right. What is your partners first job?
What was your partners first job? What was your partner's first job?
Well, I know this for you, your HR coordinator, no?
You didn't know it because that was not my first job.
What was your first job?
I was a French teacher to a little kid.
Oh, I see, okay, wow, you were?
Yeah, what I was in college.
So you did little tutoring on the side
that was your first job, but your first real job,
like real job was HR coordinator.
No, no.
A step down from portal.
I know you.
Okay, HR something.
You were in the HR department.
I made it from generalist.
Yeah, yeah.
I was all impressed with your job position.
I thought it was impressive, but you have since told me it was not
impressive.
What was my first job?
Your first job was
McDonald. That's right. My first
job was at McDonald's. Okay, you
go. What did you want to be as a
kid? I think you wanted to be an
event coordinator from for a
long time. No?
I mean, that is true, that's that, that's what I love,
but I think that came later on in life.
Yeah, like in my young adult years, I discovered that.
Yeah.
You wanted to be a cashier at a grocery store.
I remembered this, God damn it, look at me!
I'm so good, I am so good. I am so good. A cashier at a grocery store. I remembered this, God damn it, look at me! I'm so good, I am so good, I am so good.
A cashier at a grocery store.
I do remember that.
I just, I remember the one conversation we had about this
that your mom bought you this little cash register
and that you were so excited about it.
You played with it forever and you kept telling your mom,
I want to be a cashier.
I used to go to the groceries with my mom
and every time we would check out, I would like...
You'd be fascinated.
I just thought like the cashier,
like, you know, the way they, like,
touch the keyboard or whatever they had from the cashier,
and how like the drawer with the money opened
and they had to like, take the bills.
I just thought that was so cool.
You loved it.
That I even told my mom one time I'm like,
Mom, I want to be a grocery store. I love it.
I just think it speaks to who you are as a person.
Very humble.
I don't know how to say this without sounding.
You are,
what you see is what you get with you.
And I think you're like a very humble,
very grainy, very beautiful human being.
And I could see how you would as a little kid.
Your personality now is an adult.
I could see how as a little kid.
You would think that something so simple
would be something that you would wanna do.
And I don't mean that in a patronizing way.
I just think that that's like, for me,
what do you think I wanted to be?
Oh, you?
Yes.
You wanted to be a singer.
That's right, yes.
From the moment that, yeah.
From the moment I can remember,
I was putting on little shows in my bedroom.
I really wanted to be for a spring steam,
then Michael Jackson, then Eddie Vedder.
That's right.
Okay, if you could spend a day in the life of someone else, who would that be? I think this is very easy for me. I think you want to be a day in the life of Taylor Swift.
You're right. I mean very basic, for-
Yeah. But I don't want to be Taylor Swift, like I don't want her live,
but I think it would be cool to be her for just one day.
One day.
And if I get to actually play one of her concerts, of course with her talent.
If you had her voice, you'd have her talent, right?
Okay.
So, I think that would be cool.
Yes.
Alright, so who do you think I'd want to be?
Howard Stern.
No, wrong.
So, I gave three answers here, right?
Howard Stern is not one of the people that I would actually want to be for the day.
I would want to be Anthony Borne for a day.
I'd want to be Hunter S. Thompson for a day.
Or, and I say this with all sincerity, I'd want to be a woman for a day.
And here's what I'd want to be a woman, because I'd just like to experience what it's
like to be a female for just one day.
I think that that would be interesting.
I think it would give me a lot of perspective
that I maybe don't have as a guy, as a dude of the dick.
I just don't have, I try and empathize
and put myself in people's shoes,
but you don't know until you actually put yourself
in someone's shoes.
So as a guy with...
Right, I prefer to...
Seven to nine children, some of which are female,
I'd like to just be a woman for one day. Well, that's really nice. Thank you. Okay, go.
What reality show would we be terrible at competing on together? Oh, it's hard to tell because
we don't watch reality shows that have competitions. Well, but yeah, but I mean like MasterChef, you know, all the games.
Oh yeah, we would be bad at MasterChef and them.
And honestly, what I wrote was all of them because we would both want to leave.
That's right.
So, yeah.
Yeah, I wrote 90 Day Fiancé as a joke, but I agree with you.
Like, amazing race, MasterChef, TopChef, any of those competitions where we would have to work together,
one of us would have to sit behind the other one
while the other one made decisions,
and that's just not something we do all that well.
I mean, unless it was something like,
clearly one of us,
had the lead.
Is the one that has the knowledge about that topic,
but otherwise I feel like we would be like,
no, let's do it this way.
No, let's do it that way. No, let's do's this way. No, I don't use the screwdriver use the wrench
I mean honestly
We get along so swimmingly we really do I can count the number of arguments that we've had that I would consider a blowout on one hand
However, it's amazing that we get along this well because we don't agree on anything
You say on I say cold you say left I say right.
It's, you say go faster I say slow down.
It's like this.
I think it comes from like our,
our rebels, those,
totally.
That it's like,
I don't want to be controlled.
I don't want to,
I don't want to take direction from anybody else.
We don't want to be controlled,
but we want to control the other one.
Yes.
Come on, control everybody. It everything. Okay, last question, but we want to control the other one. Yes. Oh, control everybody.
It everything.
OK, last question, because we're running out of time.
Last question.
If you had, OK, go ahead.
Let me see which question is more interesting for the last question.
Oh, OK.
Now that she's making decisions about the show,
all of a sudden, she's leading the show.
I think this one is the most interesting.
If you had to take one thing to a deserted island,
what would that one thing be?
Oh, for you?
Yes.
I mean, other than clearly your iPhone,
your safety, coffee cup.
Ah, okay.
And your e-sugurit.
I would take my phone pillow with me.
That's what I would take.
If we had our phones with us, I would take my phone,
with my phone pillow.
I can't live without it.
I need it.
I need to put my phone somewhere where I'm falling asleep.
I put you.
That's the one thing I would take with me is you.
Only I'm not a thing.
Well, you're not a thing.
Why are you so radical?
Alright, you're not a thing, but you are my wife, and I wouldn't want to do it without
you.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Love you so much.
Thank you for doing this.
I know that it was the last, literally, the last thing on your list of things that you
wanted to be doing, but when you volunteered to help out while Chrissy's with her family,
I really appreciate it.
And honestly, it's fun.
Yeah, it's fun.
You see, you broke the seal.
Now you can come in more often and talk to us.
And we love you, Chrissy.
And we love you, Chrissy.
And Chrissy will be back.
There is nothing wrong with Chrissy in the show.
We've already had a couple text messages from people who are asking if Chrissy is okay
while she comes back to the show.
Yes, she will.
And she'll be back soon.
It's not going to be a long time.
We just have a couple episodes to get through while Chrissy gets through her family situation.
We love you, Papa Joe.
We wish you well on your journey.
We love you, Chrissy, Jeff.
The whole, holy family.
We're with you.
Our hearts are with you.
And even though you're not here in studio with us, your spirit is omnipresent, Chrissy.
You're all...
Yes.
Like Nico.
Just like Nico.
Only Chrissy's not dead.
Yeah.
So, oh Nico.
I was thinking about Nico last night.
I don't know why.
Interesting.
But I was thinking about Nico last night. Probably because our kids why. Interesting. But I was thinking about Nico last night.
Probably because our kids still don't understand that Nico has actually passed away and they continue to ask me when's Nico coming home.
Yeah, well, that's a tough question to answer, kid.
So, Chrissy, we love you the Seatsworm. Come on back when you get the chance.
Or she will be back when she gets the chance. I'm talking to her as if I don't talk to her on there.
I'm talking to her on the show as if I don't call her every minute.
