For New Listeners:

Expect rapid-fire banter, unexpected depth under layers of silliness, and a podcast that feels like eavesdropping on two best friends who find comedy in the chaotic, everyday weirdness of life—no topic is too small, too big, or too bizarre for The Commercial Break.

Transcript

[Brian Green]

You've gone insane. I resisted at first, but now the rhythms of the forest flow through me. On this episode of the Commercial Break, you remember there was a time back in the night, you know, late 80s, early 90s, when you literally had to take like, the Arnold Schwarzenegger Physical Fitness Presidential Physical Fitness Test, and Arnold would have that. They'd play that little video for you. I'm Arnold Schwarzenegger.

[Christina]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Godolphial laser asses. Stop eating so many Donnie Nuts. Cheerios. Do some push ups. You're just a lazy baby. Here, look at me. I'm doing some steroids. I pass them out to my children. You want to do cocaine and have lots of rough sex. I like you. Thank you. Goodbye. Good night. The next episode of the Commercial Break starts now. Oh, yeah. Cats and kittens, welcome back to the Commercial Break. I'm Brian Green and this is the president of Podcast Pon, Joy Hoadley. Best to you, Chris.

[Chrissy]

Besty, Brian.

[Brian Green]

Best you out there in the podcast universe, including Joe Rogan, who just resigned his Spotify agreement.

[Chrissy]

I did see that for listen.

[Brian Green]

Not always a fan of Joe Rogan's.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

I do have to say that he's got a very interesting show, wide ranging topics. He often has experts and scientists and then just people who bloviate and. And so I don't always agree with Joe's choice of lines of thinking or his guest, but you do have to say that he's got a very interesting podcast. He's got 159 million listener listeners a month.

[Chrissy]

Oh, wow.

[Brian Green]

Which is 1 million 100. Whatever. It's. It's a lot. 159 million more than we do. Yes, that's right. He is. He is undoubtedly the king of podcasting. He is the president of podcasting. He has been for a very long time. No one's. It doesn't seem anyone's going to take him down. I think even Conan is like, far behind that. Maybe 20, 30 million downloads, I don't know, a month. But he resigns an agreement with Spotify. But this time the difference is, is that now you'll be able to get Joe anywhere.

[Chrissy]

I saw that too. Yes.

[Brian Green]

I thought that was a dumb idea in the first place. And so I'm glad that they now have decided just to open it up. The whole point of podcasting is that you can get it. It's like agnostic. It's technology agnostic. You get it from anywhere you want to. And any podcast player that chooses to can pick up your RSS feed and make a Buck off you as long as, you know they air your commercials and all that other good stuff. So.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

I'm sure Joe's getting paid a bucket load of money. According to Spotify themselves, listenership has grown by 20 plus percent. Ad revenue has grown by 45% since they brought Joe on to the platform.

[Chrissy]

So, like in general or just on. On their podcast part?

[Brian Green]

Or on the podcast part. They didn't have specifics about Joe's, but you know, it's like Sirius XM and Howard Stern, like Howard is leading the charge. It's the reason that SiriusXM even exists is Howard Stern. The reason Spotify's podcasting platform is even discussed is because they managed to wrangle Joe and get him into a conference.

[Chrissy]

I remember seeing him at a Stand up, his Stand up show.

[Brian Green]

Oh, you did?

[Chrissy]

Years ago. Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Really?

[Chrissy]

Rachel and I went to see Joe.

[Brian Green]

And what'd you think?

[Chrissy]

It was funny. Yeah, I mean, at the time I just had remembered him from what, what was the show that he hosted?

[Brian Green]

News Radio. Oh, no. Fear Factor.

[Chrissy]

Fear Factor, yeah. Yeah. So I remembered him from that and then he got into Stand up and.

[Brian Green]

I thought he was pretty funny.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, I definitely didn't watch the UFC.

[Brian Green]

Part, but it's too little too bloody for you.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, so I. We went to go see him and. And his standup show and it was really funny. And then all of a sudden he turned that into a major show.

[Brian Green]

He was just like talking shit like we do for hours on end and he's on episode number 2,600 and whatever. So, you know, and he does such a long podcast. That's the thing is, I think I'd also have to get high and drunk if I was to do three or four hours with a stranger and just talk shit. But if I was doing the dibbity dabs or smoking a little weed, I think I could get like. I don't. I'm not claiming to be as good at this as Joe is. He's, you know, he's got his reps and he's been doing this for a long time. He's used to having a stranger sit across from him and then just kind of going on and on and on. But if I was high, I think I could ask some interesting questions. I'm sure of it, actually. I'm just too afraid to go on here high because I already think the show is dumb enough as it is. And I think I'd have to get used to being in that frame of mind. You know what I'm saying. And like, how what could we, you and I, really talk about? You know, we could pontificate about aliens for hours and hours and hours, but there would be no science behind it, no experts, no facts. It's just like the show is now. Why don't we cut the bullshit down to an hour, an hour and 20 minutes, and that way you guys don't sit down and listen to me blow V8 for. For hours on end. But best to you, Joe Rogan. Best to you. For no matter whether you agree with Joe or you don't agree with Joe, if you're a podcaster, you do have to say that Joe has brought a lot of needed attention to the space and probably a lot of revenue also.

[Chrissy]

So respect, respect, respect.

[Brian Green]

You got to respect the king back, Mom. Respect the king. And then the queen call her daddy, who also then just, I think just either she re upped and they made her show available everywhere, or she. They just made her show available everywhere. Okay, so there you go. That's a little podcast inside business. And now that you've fallen asleep or turned off the show, let's get to the word of the day. Oh.

[Chrissy]

Word of the day.

[Brian Green]

Word of the day.

[Chrissy]

I just really like this word.

[Brian Green]

Okay.

[Chrissy]

It's not too hard for you to guess, okay, what it is, but probably already know it. Circumstellar.

[Brian Green]

Circumstellar, yes.

[Chrissy]

Oh, I know what that is of the day.

[Brian Green]

That's when you, like, travel in a. Like interplanetary. Interplanetary travel to get a vasectomy. Is that. Am I right about that?

[Chrissy]

You're a little off. You are a little off. All right, so it means that surrounds or revolves around a star, basically.

[Brian Green]

Oh, surrounds or revolves around a star.

[Chrissy]

Yeah. So you have a lot of people. I'm sure that circumstellar me you. Yes, exactly.

[Brian Green]

People. Just. They can't get enough of me, apparently. Actually, they can't get enough of you. They deal with me, according to all the comments out there.

[Chrissy]

So in astronomy, the area around a star that can support liquid and therefore life is called the circumstellar habitable zone.

[Brian Green]

Oh, very interesting. I'm so fat. I'm like in a space mode. I'm watching a lot of documentaries about space. Yeah, I've always loved space. Like how the universe work.

[Chrissy]

Put me in any city that has a planetarium and I will be there.

[Brian Green]

Every city has a planetarium.

[Chrissy]

No, they don't. Where does.

[Brian Green]

Which city have you been? I mean, not to like the tiny, tiny cities. Not like, you know, Schaumburg fucking Wisconsin or whatever.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

But even Chattanooga, Tennessee has a planetarium, so.

[Chrissy]

Planetarium.

[Brian Green]

A planet. You never seen the south park episode?

[Chrissy]

No.

[Brian Green]

Okay. Because we're going to the planetarium.

[Chrissy]

No. I do love South Park.

[Brian Green]

That was a pretty good teacher impression of South Park. I definitely. I haven't seen an episode of south park in five years, but I managed to pull that.

[Chrissy]

Are there still new?

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah.

[Chrissy]

Episodes. I love it.

[Brian Green]

It's very popular.

[Chrissy]

I love it. Every time I catch it, I'm always like, why don't I watch this more?

[Brian Green]

You know, I like south park and why? I just, I. I feel a real kinship with south park even though I have not watched it in a while. This the. For all. The only reason I don't watch it is because now I have children. So I have to be extra careful about what I turn them onto, cartoon wise. And they're way too young to watch south park and. But the reason why I have such a kinship with south park is because they always find the hypocrisy in the latest and greatest bullshit that's going on in the country, around the world, and they point it out, no matter the perspective. They're not liberal, they're not conservative. They just point out the hypocrisy. And they are spot on almost 100% of the time, in my opinion. And I'm like, wow, these guys are so good at breaking down the most complicated of issues into its base nature, right? I was watching a show last night and the lady there was like a detective show, and the two detectives were talking to each other and they were like angry at each other or something. And the one lady goes, I want to do an exercise with you. Take the worst thing that you've ever done, take all of the words out of it and just say what it was on its surface, right? Make it as simple as it is. So I killed somebody, right? Not I killed somebody, but they were coming at me and I needed to do it in order to save my family and da, da, da, da, you know, reasons and justifications and all this other bullshit. And that's what happens with, I think a lot of issues in our society today is that we are just so far down the rabbit hole on any particular issue that we don't see it as at its base nature. Like, I don't know, immigration needs reform. That's it. There you go. It's not serving immigrants or the people that live in, you know, in the country. It needs reform, like. But no, we have to. And so it's like you lose the meaning of what we're actually doing. They're human beings that need help and we need to figure out how to help them because they want to come into our country. So it's like, you know, there's no line.

[Chrissy]

There's no, like, list.

[Brian Green]

No, you get on. No, there's no down, please.

[Chrissy]

Is that the table at 8?

[Brian Green]

Yeah. You know, you are so right about this. And now by the time this airs.

[Chrissy]

They have to try and get here somehow.

[Brian Green]

And in order to do that, we should probably make a process that makes any kind of fucking sense. And if you think just kicking everybody out of the country is the answer, you're a fucking dumb ass, because that's not the answer. It's never going to be the answer. You like strawberries, you like your food, you like houses being constructed. And let's take it beyond that. You like, you know, the engineers and the people who, you make your phones and all that other shit. Guess what? They all didn't. They all weren't born here. And so if you like that stuff, then there's got to. We have to find.

[Chrissy]

There's research, scientists. I mean, they're people.

[Brian Green]

Senators and congressmen and congresswomen.

[Chrissy]

Humans.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, Human beings. We need to figure out it. So I say this all to get back to south park, is that they have a way. But they have also tackled this issue of immigration on their shows before and on their episodes before. And I have to say they have a way of just breaking it down to its base nature where you're like, oh, yeah. Oh shit. Like there are human beings that want a better life and they have something to add of value and we don't give them any great way to get into the country except for jumping a fence or being muled in a goddamn pack of a fence, man. It's insane. It's insane. Okay, so that's that. Joe resigned with Spotify. I already said that.

[Chrissy]

Congrats to Joe.

[Brian Green]

Best to you, Joe. So let's do a headline here now that we're doing in. Oh, and I wanted to say about space. Yes. I. I'm so fascinated by it all. I've been going back and watching documentaries about like the Gemini and Apollo missions, like way back in the day, like the first space missions. Why didn't we continue to do that? Why don't we just keep going? I don't understand. We're going back to the moon in 2027 or something. We haven't been there in 30, 40 years. Why didn't we keep going. I don't understand. I don't get it. People lost interest. It's. It's like, you know, I heard Neil degrasse.

[Chrissy]

Yeah. There's only so much money to go around. And I think once they kind of figured out it was a rock.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

They were like, well, what about other areas?

[Brian Green]

I was just.

[Chrissy]

And that's where I think that we've focused on other areas now.

[Brian Green]

Well, I was just reading that the. The moon is not, in fact just arrived. There are moonquakes going on right now. There's like some shift going on. The moon is shrinking. Chrissy, did you know this? The moon is shrinking. Like. Like my testicles. As I get older, the moon is shrinking. They're hanging lower, but they're shrinking. They're. The moon is shrinking because the inside is cooling and it's shrinking. And it's got some scientists nervous about traveling back there. They're like, hey, get caught up in a moonquake, you won't catch me dead on. On a space flight ever. I don't care. How commonplace.

[Chrissy]

Can I ask a question though? Because isn't it. Aren't you weightless at the moon?

[Brian Green]

No. You are. It's like a little bit away. A third of the gravity.

[Chrissy]

A little bit.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. A third of the gravity.

[Chrissy]

Couldn't you just like, if there. You see a quake, just jump up, wait for it to end.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. And then float back down.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

I don't think you can control yourself like that on the moon. But I mean, we've all seen the pictures. Yeah. I think it's a third of the fake pictures. Fake. Fake moon knight thing. Some millions of people just decided to fake. Get yourself a job or something, dude. You got too much time on your hand. Moonlight. Speaking of Joe, Joe used to be like a real questioner, like of the moon landing. Did it happen? It didn't happen. It might have happened. Look at all this crazy. You can see wires in this picture and wires in that picture. Do I think there's a possibility that some of the moon images were taken inside of a studio for quality and clarity? I think that's a possibility because we did that kind of shit all the time. We still do that kind of shit all the time. Do I think that we faked going to the moon? Of course fucking not. You know why? Let me repeat myself. If it makes sense, it's probably true. When your grandma tells you that your mother is used to make out with the neighbor and is still having an affair with him 40 years later, how quickly do you tell as many people as possible that secret. You do that because you cannot keep a fucking secret. There is no possible way under any circumstances that more than 10 people can keep a secret for any amount of time. It's just. It just doesn't happen.

[Chrissy]

People that big too, that we were in a race with other countries, we're.

[Brian Green]

In a race with another country and there's all these people sitting in a. They're just a fake studio. Like pressing buttons and saying complicated words to make you think that we went to the moon. Get real. All right. Okay, so now I got. I got something else to share with you that has nothing to do with the space race. The Grammys are back to the back of the Grammys. The Grammys saw its highest audience in like seven years for that last Grammys. That happened at this point a couple weeks ago. Right. Saw its highest audience. 17 million people tuned in to see the Grammys. Now that seems like a lot of people to me to be watching any one particular television show in 2024. But additionally. So that was like an increase of like 36% or something. So people are really into it. I was wrong, they were right. You know, I wasn't that into it, but a lot of people are that into it. Additionally, the E. Networks, I think it.

[Chrissy]

Was the weekend just in between football games. And that's what happened.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, of course. Well that's what they do. They're not going to do it during.

[Chrissy]

A football game because we were so used to football games. Yes, every weekend. Every weekend. And then there wasn't one.

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Chrissy]

But the Grammys were on.

[Brian Green]

Might as well, might as well watch it. What are we gonna do? Yeah, you know, there's no Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce this weekend. But additionally. And I just wanted to say congratulations to Heather. Heather's little red carpet, I mean, I don't know was hers. There were a couple people on it. But Heather's the show that. She was on the E. Red carpet pre Grammy show or whatever it was, saw 1.5 million people tune in like a 40% increase.

[Chrissy]

Ah, fantastic. She's got a big fan base.

[Brian Green]

She does.

[Chrissy]

I'll tell you what. And I love her.

[Brian Green]

She's great.

[Chrissy]

I love her.

[Brian Green]

I don't think she'll ever come back on the show again. But it was really nice having her.

[Chrissy]

Just the right time.

[Brian Green]

Just when she was not famous enough.

[Chrissy]

Yes, well, of her. All of her fame worthy things were in the works.

[Brian Green]

Why didn't like, why didn't they took off? Why could she waited? Could we have waited one additional week, then released her episode. You know what I'm saying? Like, in one week, the girl went from being on the commercial break to being one of the.

[Chrissy]

We weren't tuned in because I know I didn't really know all. A lot about who she was before she was on, but then when I started to do research for the show and talked to her, I was an instant fan. And now I can't wait to see what she's doing next and hear what she's doing next. Her podcast is hilarious. It's. It's just.

[Brian Green]

Are you gonna go to her show? Isn't she having a show? She did. She's doing, like.

[Chrissy]

She just did a show here in Atlanta.

[Brian Green]

Well, I know the week before we get. We had her on. Yeah, that girl running naked around her.

[Chrissy]

She's on tour.

[Brian Green]

We should go see her.

[Chrissy]

We should. She's going to Australia, you know, go there.

[Brian Green]

You know, I'm going to see this weekend.

[Chrissy]

Is this the Pete. David Davidson.

[Brian Green]

I'm going to see Pete Davidson in a theater that sits about 50 people. And I'd like to say that I got some special invite to go see him, but what actually happened was Instagram sent me a link to the ticket sale.

[Chrissy]

You got in quick because you're on Instagram 24 hours a day.

[Brian Green]

Oh, I do find myself on that Instagram and TikTok quite a bit. Even though it might not seem like it, with our size of our Instagram audience. I think we posted something in two weeks. We go in fits and starts with that fucking Instagram because it's like, okay, you know, sometimes I feel like post, sometimes I feel like a nut. Sometimes I don't remember that exactly.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

What was that Snickers commercial?

[Chrissy]

Sounds about right. Yeah. Okay, I remember it. I don't remember what.

[Brian Green]

I can literally hear your brain clinking around in there. You're like, clink, clink, clink, clink, clink, clink. But I did want to say congratulations to Heather, because I think that's quite awesome. You know, I don't get. I don't really get something. And I'm. That I'm reading about right now. The Rock went back to the WW. You know, Vince McMahon got like, he's out of the WWE because did you hear this crazy story?

[Chrissy]

I don't give up the wwe.

[Brian Green]

I don't keep up with the WWE either, except it's always in the news and it's one of the most popular sports in the world. If you know. And I say it's a sport. I. I don't even put in quotations, and I'll tell you why. Because at least you know what you're getting with the W. At least you know, it's. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, they don't make any. There's no illusions that it's.

[Chrissy]

It's. It's for show.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. And people have fun with it. And some people take it too seriously. Like, everything. Like, you go to.

[Chrissy]

I did go to a match one time, and it was fun.

[Brian Green]

You went to a fucking WWE match?

[Chrissy]

Yeah. This is 20 years ago when I worked in TV, and we had tickets, you know, trade tickets or whatever, for the show that was coming. I think this was in Knoxville. And we all decided to just go all out and make signs and really, like, dress up and do whatever, and it was pretty fun.

[Brian Green]

Hey, I've never. I've never been to one. But I'll tell you what, when I was a kid and Hulk Hogan, Randy Macho Man Savage, and, you know, Andre the Giant, and, you know, the Iron Chic, when all those guys were running around just killing each other during WrestleMania, it was the best thing since sliced bread. I wasn't the kid who just, you know.

[Chrissy]

Well, they're characters, And you. They're like real life characters, and they have the good ones and the bad ones.

[Brian Green]

They have the heels and the heroes. Yeah, heels and the heroes. So Vince McMahon. I'm not going to tell the whole story, but Vince McMahon, is he a.

[Chrissy]

Hero or a bad guy?

[Brian Green]

I think it's universally understood that Vince McMahon is, like, the world's biggest asshole. Oh, okay. Yes, he is an asshole. He. He just basically struggled in real life.

[Chrissy]

And in the ring.

[Brian Green]

Well, you should hear what's going on.

[Chrissy]

Okay, well, tell me.

[Brian Green]

Well, he got accused of, like, sexual, you know, misconduct a number of years ago before the. Right. When the pandemic was starting, I think. So he stepped down as the president and CEO of wwe.

[Chrissy]

He was the president.

[Brian Green]

He put this whole thing together, Chrissy. He went around the country buying out all these little small wrestling organizations, Right? Used to be the WWF and then it became the WWE. And Vince McMahon, under his management, under his ownership, combined everything. And I say combined. He basically steamrolled everybody. You don't work for me, I'm gonna squash you. Right? And so wrestlers are in this terrible position where they have to go and they have to perform, and if they don't perform, they don't get paid. They're subcontractors. They have no, like, universal health care. They don't have any kind of retirement or pension fund and they go out there and they kill themselves every week.

[Chrissy]

It does seem like a pretty crazy sport on your body.

[Brian Green]

Have you ever seen the movie the Wrestler with what's his name? The. The crazy old guy. I can't remember his name now, but anyway. Mickey Rourke. That's right, Mickey Rourke. It's. Yes, it's such a great movie and it tells the, the story pretty accurately, I think, about how wrestlers, they just get put out to pasture basically with nothing. And many of them die very young at an early age because of drug abuse because they're just trying to keep the pain away from their bodies. I mean, it doesn't matter whether it's real or it's fake or you think it's real or it's fake. Those guys are hitting each other hard, man. Flying down, off, flying into nails, you know, beds of nails and, you know, punching themselves in the balls and biting each other's fingers.

[Chrissy]

I guess you have to keep kind of upping the ante too.

[Brian Green]

Of course you do. Yeah. Yes.

[Chrissy]

You can't. You need to have it be crazier.

[Brian Green]

No.

[Chrissy]

Than it was last time.

[Brian Green]

Andre the Giant body slamming Hulk Hogan in Wrestlemania, whatever it was, was the tamest of events. Now, now you've got to like literally eat glass and stick, you know, Pokemon 5 inch nails through your eyeballs and you know, stick snakes in your ear. I don't know, you got to do a bunch of. To make it entertain. I haven't watched WWE in many years.

[Chrissy]

What size snakes?

[Brian Green]

What's that?

[Chrissy]

What size snakes? You said stick snakes in your ear.

[Brian Green]

You do have to stick snakes. And you're like Jake the Snake. Snake. You know what I'm saying? Like 5, 5 inch python, just girthy. And he just ear. You take that Hulk Hogan. Yeah, brother. My ear. So, so Vince basically over, you know, 80s 90s, he pulls everybody together under this one huge organization. WWE and any other wrestling organization that tries to get as prominent as the WWE is basically squash. I'm gonna put my 2 inch testicles right on your WCW forehead. So do you want to hear the rest of the story? Yeah, because it's very, I think it's very interesting. I didn't intend to go down this road, but now that we're talking about it, see, this is why you don't want me doing a four hour podcast high. Because if you think it's hard enough to keep up as it is, just wait until Brian gets loaded, it starts talking to 72 year old Hulk Hogan about the good old days, brother. But first. But first, a break. We'll be back.

Okay, so what's going on in this studio right now? Ryan's just all charged. I'm all charged up. I came in sleepy, and now I'm hot.

[Chrissy]

You are. You're like, I'm so tired.

[Brian Green]

I know. I was so tired just like 10 minutes ago. And now I'm like, hey, I got some energy. Look at me. This old man can roll. Once you get him going, he just. You in the air. Because that's what Vince told us to do. All right? Vince McMahon puts together the WWE, you know, rolls over everybody. He's just like. But he's also known as kind of like an. Like, he. He just. He's just an asshole. He's hard to negotiate with. He tells you one thing, he does another. There's.

[Chrissy]

I don't picture a timid guy as being the head of that whole.

[Brian Green]

Just look at him. He just looks like a beefcake. I don't know. I don't know. Anyway, so Vince puts all these together. The many people over the years have been complaining about Vince, his management style, his inability to protect and take care of the people who he's eating dinner off of. Essentially, he eats his own young. And he doesn't give a. And he never has given a. He wants to keep things status quo because, of course, he can make money, more money, if he doesn't have to pay out for, you know, health care. And, you know, I think. I think he will pay for rehab. I think that's like the one. The thing that he will do is rehab.

[Chrissy]

Okay, well, at least it's something.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, but if you're a wrestler like that and you're in your 30s or 40s or even late 20s and you're getting banged around, you're going to be taking some Vicodin. I don't care who you are. And you know what? Okay, Take some Vicodin. You've earned it, dude. Take some Vico. So there's many, many stories about the badness of Vince McMahon. But then in. Sometime in the early 2000s, I think he gets accused of sexual assault or sexual misconduct, and, okay, he steps down while he. While they bring in a third party independent figure ahead. Yeah, well, they. I think they installed his daughter Actually, as the president of the organization, a completely independent person. Completely independent. And then she brings in another completely independent organization who does an investigation. Well, the investigation goes nowhere. There's never any final conclusion to the investigation. All of a sudden, last year, 2023, Vince McMahon announces he's now the, the head of the board of directors, right? So he's going to be back in the game. He's doing it all over. He's essentially assert and will back into the wwe. And now he's also back out there, you know, as kind of the face at one point. Vince McMahon also is a wrestler in the organization. He's like the heel. He's the ultimate heel.

[Chrissy]

Well, that's what I was wondering.

[Brian Green]

Okay, he goes out there, he wrestles. He's Vince mc. He plays himself. He's like a really bad bad guy. Well, somebody just cl. Like a super bad dude. Like, I mean just he, at one time he was like using the N word. This is like not even that long ago too. It was like seven or eight years ago. He was like using the N word to get people riled up. I just don't find it funny. I'm sorry. I don't find it interesting and I don't find it funny. But anyway, I don't like Vince McMahon in the first place. So a couple months ago, some lady, a neighbor of his claims that she was having some financial troubles. Someone, the bellman at their apartment complex or condo complex asked Vince, hey, this lady's having some trouble. Do you have any work for her, something you can do? Because you know, she's in a really bad way and I think she's going to lose her house and all this other stuff. And Vince says, yeah, you know, here's her phone, you know, here's a phone number. Okay, cool. Thanks Vince. You know, nice thing. But then he was like, you know, basically spit roasting her with this other executive at the organization. He, he basically, it was sex by coercion is what it was. Sex by extortion, Sex by coercion. And then he was handing her off to these other executives inside of the WWE building to have sex with and you know, sexually assault and all this other terrible, terrible stuff that just came out. And now Vince has back down. Okay, there you are on the Vince McMahon thing. He is a real heel in real life. He should go away forever. I'm not saying, you know, jail he needs. He has his day in court like everybody else has. I'm saying go away from the WWE. It's just a bad look no one needs Vince McMahon anymore. Bye. Bye. See you later. Give it to the Rock. Right, okay, so the Rock came in. So the Rock is now back at the wwe.

[Chrissy]

Really?

[Brian Green]

The Rock is all of a sudden showing up at the wwe? Now here is the scuttlebutt. Let me explain. There are two wrestlers. In order to get to the WrestleMania main event or be matched up or whatever, you have to win some series of events, like some Royal Rumble or. I don't even know Chrissy, to be honest.

[Chrissy]

Royal Rumble?

[Brian Green]

Yes, the Royal Rumble. Let's get ready to Royal Rumble. Here's Brian.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, that is you.

[Brian Green]

I am running away from the Royal Rumble. So you did. You have to win some series of events? Well, there's two wrestlers in particular. They're like up and coming wrestlers that everybody's rooting for. These guys earned it. They should be in WrestleMania. This should be the thing. And then a couple weeks ago, the Rock steps into the ring and starts, like, arguing with one of the two.

[Chrissy]

Like, literally stepped into the ring.

[Brian Green]

Or like, literally stepped into the ring and started arguing. Now this is obviously. This is wrestling. So it's all, you know, it's all a job, right? They call it a job. He's a jobber. He's jobbing. So he gets up there. He jobs. And now everybody is pissed off because they think the Rock is going to be invited to WrestleMania and not the guy who really earned it, who won the Royal Rumble or whatever it was. So these.

[Chrissy]

And by everybody.

[Brian Green]

And by everybody, I mean the extreme WWE fans who clearly have not rapped, gotten their heads directly out of their assholes and realize that this is just for fun. It's wwe, the World Wrestling Entertainment, okay? It's entertainment. That's what it is. So people start sending death threats to the Rock's daughter. Why? Because they have entirely too much time on their hands. I'm supposing that's what it is. I get it. Wrestling's fun. It's fun to watch.

[Chrissy]

Why are there so many death threats on people? I have to say, it is so easy. It's very extreme first to say that you don't like something because they're.

[Brian Green]

They're either children or man children is what they are. And I'm not saying maybe there's a female out there involved in this, too. But it's probably man children, right? Guys that have nothing better to do with their life than be angry over pretend stuff. It's like you threaten to kill somebody because your imaginary best friend didn't show up to school today. Like, I mean, come on. What are you doing? Is no one. You're threatening this woman's life because you're mad her dad was involved in a fake altercation at a fake wrestling event in a. Yeah, it's crazy. And it's all made up anyway. It's not anybody's decision. They basically execute executives. Basically tell you what to do, and that's what happens. Or you guys decide amongst yourself. Not sure how that works, but do we really need death threats over the World Wrestling Entertainment Company? Do we really? Do we really? If there's anybody who should be receiving death threats, it's not the Rock's daughter. I mean, come on, guys. Settle your little twiddles down. Let's take our twigs and berry rev down. Take our twigs and berries, put them back in our. Spider man on the roofs and let's. Let's calm down. We can all have a good time watching WWE if that's what you choose to do without death threats. Death threats. Death threats. Over the w. F. Cking we.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, Chrissy, it's scary that there's people even doing that. It's just.

[Brian Green]

There's no order. There's no control. There's no one can control themselves. Everyone's out. Like, they're all fucking loose cannons. And I know I might sound like one here on the commercial break probably every third day, but I got to tell you something. In real life, I'm kind of just normal. Like, I don't.

[Chrissy]

You're pragmatic. Pragmatist.

[Brian Green]

Yes, that's right. I don't go around death threatening people because you know what I realize? That's not a way to behave. That's not how humans behave. It should not be how humans should behave. And I don't know, but I'm going to guess not. But just in case there's someone out there in our audience who thinks this is the way to go about things, it's just pretend. Everybody is just pretending. It's okay. You don't have to kill somebody over pretend stuff. It's not real. Leave the Rock's daughter alone. By the way, I should mention that the Rock's daughter is a wrestler herself and she's got two different color eyes. That's really. It's really. Yeah. I don't know if that's like a contact lens or what, but it's really there. But I was just so flabbergasted that I'm seeing this story pop up in multiple places. And I'm like, wow, you really. You really threaten Somebody's life over. Your dad pretending in the middle of a ring with somebody. It's so stupid.

[Chrissy]

Now I need to follow up on the story.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I don't know. It's like building a sand.

[Chrissy]

Although now I don't want to receive further notifications about it though. No, I'm afraid to click on something because then that's gonna take me to more of the same.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, but you can't be. I mean. Yeah, you just. You gotta, you gotta trust your own filter, right? Do you trust your own filter? Of course you do. So. But if you want to get.

[Chrissy]

But you just said it's all over the news. It's all over everywhere. I'm not seeing it.

[Brian Green]

I didn't say.

[Chrissy]

But I think you clicked on it and then now you're seeing it everywhere.

[Brian Green]

Well, it was in multiple trade rags. Like, like entertainment trade rags. You know, the Rock's daughter. The Rock is a big deal. I mean, I don't care who you are.

[Chrissy]

The Rock.

[Brian Green]

Sure, he seems like a nice enough guy. Met him one time. He got out of a Tonka truck, a literal Tonka truck on a movie set that I happen to be visiting for. Not because I was invited as a famous person, but because I just happened to be there. But he drove up in a Tonka truck, like a huge, you know, look, imagine a Tonka truck, right? One of those monster trucks. Yeah, he drove up in one to this and he got on that thing and I couldn't figure out which is bigger, the Tonka truck or the rock. He was huge.

[Chrissy]

I've only read good things about him and he seems really nice and he's very disciplined and hard working.

[Brian Green]

Rock for president.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

What happens when the Rock gets old? Does he like turn into one of those, like, you know, Frankie B. Types who continues to work out and pump iron and.

[Chrissy]

No, I think he goes like an Arnold Schwarzenegger, you know, way. Yeah, well, I was listening to an interview with him the other day and he's. He's great.

[Brian Green]

Arnold.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, I love it.

[Brian Green]

Arnold's good. Arnold's a good one.

[Chrissy]

He works out every day still, but not crazy, you know? Yeah, he's like, no, no, I'm too old for all the crazy heavy drugs.

[Brian Green]

Well, drugs maybe that I used to.

[Chrissy]

Do and the weights, but he still gets some kind of exercise in every day and he's seems very good with his diet. I don't know.

[Brian Green]

You remember there was a time back in the N, you know, late 80s, early 90s, when you literally had to take like the Arnold Schwarzenegger physical fitness Presidential physical fitness test. And Arnold would have that. They play that little video for you. I'm on the Schwarzenegger, get off your laser asses. Stop eating so many Honey Nut Cheerios. Do some push ups. You're just a lazy baby. Here, look at me, I'm doing some steroids. I pass them out to my children. You want to do cocaine and have lots of rough sex? I like you. Thank you, goodbye, good night. And that was the guy who caused me all my misery in gym class because, yeah, I had to go up and down the rope. Inevitably, yes, because anytime anything touched my penis, I had a boner. 12 and 13 year old boy, I just feared that so much because I was like, yep, gonna go up, gonna get rope burned, not gonna make it to the top, gonna come back down, gonna have a huge hard on, pitching a tent for the world to see. And those gym shorts that were too clingy for anybody's taste. You know what I'm saying? I just couldn't control myself. I was like, I, I don't know. But then you have the push ups and the sit ups and you'd run them. Oh man, it was so. I don't know, maybe we need some more of that. I liked it because now like some of the kids don't, they don't even get recess anymore. They don't get recess. How do you not get recess at school? How do you not get like an hour break? There's a school, like, we're, we're, you know, the kids are learning the process of schooling and going to school and changing schools and getting into schools and all this other stuff. And like, we're, we're looking at, you know, we take a tour of some of these schools that are available to our children and we're like, do you have recess? And the one lady was like, well, we don't call it recession, we call it a brain break. And I'm like, oh, okay, sure, fine. Fun. That's cool. What is that? And it's like we give them 15 to 20 minutes to reflect on the day's activities. And I'm like, on the, do you wait? They go to school from 8 to 9 and at 9 you give them a brain break. They have to like, they have to reflect on the day's activities. Everyone been at school for an hour. When I was in high school, you went the whole day without reflecting on your day's activities. You know, I'm saying it was jam packed from moment to moment. But I'm not saying I don't like it, because I think maybe had I had a few more brain breaks, I would have actually used my brain right. During my education, but I didn't, so. But they don't have, like, gym class anymore. There are no physical fitness awards, I don't think, are there?

[Chrissy]

I don't know.

[Brian Green]

Did your kids go through it?

[Chrissy]

Well, I just went to lunch with my nephews and they were gonna have recess after that at the playground, so I don't know. I don't. I mean, I think if you do gym. Like, gym?

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Then as a class. As a class, then you have to do some kind of activity. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Yoga was one of the.

[Brian Green]

Yoga.

[Chrissy]

One of the girls did a yoga class for. For their gym class.

[Brian Green]

You're kidding me.

[Chrissy]

I love that, though.

[Brian Green]

That is incredible.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Wow. And then I see, like, there's some classes where they're teaching, like, meditation techniques and the tapping technique to rev down, you know, when they're feeling a little.

[Chrissy]

Great.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I had none of that. I just had teachers yelling louder when I got upset, you know, saying like, louder, go in the corner. Now you have detention. You know, write 500 times on the board. I remember one teacher, this one teacher, I thought we had an understanding. I thought we liked each other. I thought we were simpatico. She was an older lady. I went to Catholic school, so those teachers could be really rough. I mean, they. It was Catholic. Equals pain, you know what I'm saying? It equals, like, the original sin. You must be punished for everything that you do, blah, blah, blah. And so some teachers took that too far. Not as far as the nuns used to take it back in the 40s, 50s, and 60s, but they. They would take it too far in the sense that they had literally no empathy for anything that happened in the classroom. If you got in trouble, you were going to be punished, and it was going to be painful. Not in a physical way, but in a mental way or an emotional way. But I had this one teacher, and I just. From the day that I got in that class, I really liked her. And I thought she was. She was stern, but kind of funny. She had, like, a little sarcasm to her, and I had a little sarcasm to me. So I thought we were kind of going for it together. We were doing it. And. You know, I don't know how to say this. I was a young buck. I was a little. I had a little extra energy, you know what I'm saying, Chrissy? And she made us read a book about the Vietnam War, a story about Four young lads that go into the Vietnam War. And a part of the book, there was talk of prostitutes, right? And so when the teacher started asking questions about this particular part of the book to make sure that we understood the context properly, that this wasn't just like a sex passage, but this was. There was something having to do with. With the book. I said, yes, and I love the way he described her boobs. That's what I said. And she said, Mr. Green, we do not talk like that in this classroom. And I said, no, no, no. I'm saying he said that he described her boobs nicely. And I was trying to explain that I thought he did a good job of describing her boobs. But the teacher didn't agree with my pontification, and so she made me go up on the board and write, I will not say the word boobs in classroom. But instead of boobs, I had to just put four. Five X's, right? Five X's.

[Chrissy]

Wow.

[Brian Green]

So for the entire. This entire particular period, I had to write that on the wall the entire time. Well, I could see that the clock was getting toward the end, right? And so inside of putting the 4Xs, I put boobs because I thought, well, let me just. She's got a good sense of humor. Let me read it. I had detention. I had to clean that school up and down and side for like a month. I had no recess. I had to clean, clean, clean. And I learned very quickly that my sense of humor was not for everyone. Chrissy, if you mind, it was mediocre at best and not for everyone. My boob joke was not funny, though. I like to write boobs on my calculator all the time. Did you write boobs on your calculator? You didn't?

[Chrissy]

No.

[Brian Green]

Chrissy, do you know how to write boobs on your calculator?

[Chrissy]

No.

[Brian Green]

No one ever taught you how to write boobs on a calculator? 80085 I mean, I saw other people do it.

[Chrissy]

Why would I do it?

[Brian Green]

Because, Chrissy, this is just a rite of passage for a girl.

[Chrissy]

For.

[Brian Green]

For me, for anyone.

[Chrissy]

For anyone.

[Brian Green]

You have them, you should be writing them first. The girls should have done this first before the boys. This was hilarious to everyone. And I can't believe you didn't. You didn't agree with. With boobs.

[Chrissy]

It's not. This doesn't stand out in my memory.

[Brian Green]

You know what standed out in my memory? Boobs. Anybody who had them. That was also around the time when, you know, everyone was kind of blossoming, right? And So I think the teacher was. I got it. Like, I get it now, but I'll never forget that altercation that I never forget disconnecting emotionally from that teacher. Like, I thought we were together and then I thought she was going to take my. My description of what was going on in the book in good jest, but she did not. Turns out I was a little. And continued to be for the rest of my educational life. And every teacher after that put me in detention.

[Chrissy]

On your permanent record?

[Brian Green]

For some reason. I don't know if it's on my permanent record.

[Chrissy]

You remember those permanent records?

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah.

[Chrissy]

Where are they now?

[Brian Green]

Well, they're not permanent is what we learned. Yeah, I don't know anybody that can access my permanent records. I mean, I have a record that you certainly can access, but that's a different kind of record. You know what I'm saying?

[Chrissy]

That is a permanent.

[Brian Green]

That is a permanent record, as I've learned a couple of times in front of a judge. I thought that would seal the. Not to me, it's not. Oh, you can see. Yes. Well, the deal was we will seal them if you stay out of my courtroom. However, you're here, you're here. And so they're unsealed. Well, that's unfair. You should have listened to me in the first place, Mr. Green. You should have shown up to court for that traffic ticket 20 years ago when you were supposed to. You don't say. All right, let's take a break and then we'll be back.

[Christina]

Well, thank the baby Jesus. Brian took a breath. And now I will use this opportunity to let you know that we've got a brand new phone number. That's right. It's 212-4333, TCB. And you can text us anytime you want or you can call and leave us a voicemail and we might just use your message on the show once Brian gets through all the messages he missed last year. Of course.

[Brian Green]

Speaking of boobs, did you. You probably have not read this article because you don't click on these type of things so that you don't go down the rabbit hole. I imagine Chrissy's just got like rainbows and sunshines across her newsfeed.

[Chrissy]

I do. I subscribe to the Nice news every day.

[Brian Green]

I don't know why. How do you make it 500 episodes into this podcast? I really don't. I really don't. Okay.

[Chrissy]

You give me all the crazy news. I do even have to click.

[Brian Green]

I just give you a taste of the craziness. I mean, if you really could get inside my mind and see what I'm seeing every day. You have to suss through a lot of bullshit to get to a commercial break worthy story. Because it can't be too nice and it can't be too sad. It's got to be somewhere in between. It's like, you know, I'm like the three little bears. It's got to be mediocre enough and interesting enough for me to talk about, but it's got to be a certain flavor. Do you know what I'm saying? Like this story. Let me share with you about boobs. Let me ask you a question. You have, you have kids. Imagine you have younger children, right? They're in a Christian private school and you have to go to the drop off line to drop your kids off at the school and the pickup line to drop pick your kids up from school. And one of the parents on the back of their vehicle has posted their Only fans account so that you and everybody else in line or anybody else that sees the back of the car can then Google that real quick or QR code it real quick and see that this particular parent has a nice Only fans page having lots and lots and lots of really graphic sex with her husband to make money. She's making about $30,000 a month, actually. So I don't know what the we're doing.

[Chrissy]

Why? I was about to say why?

[Brian Green]

Why are we doing it here?

[Chrissy]

I mean, what. We've got this studio. I say you and Astrid take it one day, Jeff and I take it another day. You know, let's just.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, let's just put plastic down and then we'll just go at it. I'll take turns. You take turns. Everybody takes turn. We'll bring in strangers. We'll ask our guests if they want to have sex. I could ask Fear dots. Hey, you want to participate in our Only fans account? I'll give you 10%. What do you think? Any tips that come in are yours. So this mother down in, of course, Florida. It's so true that Florida has some wacky stories, man.

[Chrissy]

They do.

[Brian Green]

A Florida mom of three has been banned from dropping off and picking up her young student from a Florida Christian school because she Advertises her lucrative Only fans account on an oversized car decal. Michelle Chene, 35, told the Post that she's now forced to walk her children across a busy street to get to and from class and that some parents want her expelled from Liberty Christian Preparatory School altogether.

[Chrissy]

I don't know.

[Brian Green]

The whole thing, it's just so ridiculous.

[Chrissy]

The Christian school.

[Brian Green]

It's a Christian preparatory. Preparatory school. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Well, you know what? Maybe that's one way to take everybody's crazy focus off of banning books.

[Brian Green]

You know what that might be? Just put your only fans there.

[Chrissy]

Focus on that.

[Brian Green]

Right.

[Chrissy]

Stop the madness over here. Let's really get pissed off.

[Brian Green]

To Kill a Mockingbird. Burn it. Only fans welcome at every Christian school across Florida. It's so ridiculous. It is. This. The hypocrisy. Sending your children to a Christian school and then putting your Only fans account where you and your husband have graphic sex for money. I'm not arguing how you make your money. Go for it, girl. Get it.

[Chrissy]

If it's a decal, like, just. It's got to be a magnetic one.

[Brian Green]

No. Oh, no, it's not. They have a picture of it. Of course they have a picture of it. She wants to get more people on her only face.

[Chrissy]

Take it off during the time that you.

[Brian Green]

It's huge. Oh, my God, it is huge. It's huge.

[Chrissy]

It's like across the back. Whole window.

[Brian Green]

Yes. Oh, it's the whole back window of her Dodge Durango or whatever.

[Chrissy]

It has stripes on it.

[Brian Green]

Let's see if I can make that show up on camera. There it. She literally has a whole back window dedicated to only fans. It's insane. Oh, wow.

[Chrissy]

Wait. Oh, my God. Her car has got the stripes on it.

[Brian Green]

I know. I think the only thing being expelled in this situation I like.

[Chrissy]

Her name is Piper Fawn.

[Brian Green]

Little deer baby getting it from behind.

[Chrissy]

I mean, Piper Fawn. Why not?

[Brian Green]

Yes, A. Ms. Jean, this is Victoria from the principal's office. We have multiple requests that you take down your only fans decal. I don't understand.

[Chrissy]

Why?

[Brian Green]

Well, you, Knudnik, you're sending your kids to a Christian school, and we'd appreciate it if all the kids couldn't see your tits.

[Chrissy]

So funny.

[Brian Green]

But half of my income comes from the kids at school. Well, that may be so, Mrs. Chene, but the principal is requesting that you take down your only fans. Your only fans can only be 6 inches by 12 inches on the back of your car. Not a full decal.

[Chrissy]

Look at her husband.

[Brian Green]

I know. Her husband is like, I get it.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, he's got mirrored sunglasses.

[Brian Green]

That's my dick. I get ass. Yes, I do.

[Chrissy]

Gold china, tank top shirt.

[Brian Green]

Everything about this story is Florida from beginning to end. It's all Florida. It is awesome. You know, she's a good looking woman. She is. I gotta say that if that's her. Well, she was a good looking woman until I saw that picture. She looks over. Okay, so how do we feel about this?

[Chrissy]

I don't care.

[Brian Green]

You don't give a shit. You don't care if you're, if the parents are running around with OnlyFans. I'm asking you to imagine you have children in this school and then you pull up behind this lady's car and you do a quick search and you're like, holy shit, she's getting it from behind.

[Chrissy]

Me laugh. I think it would make me laugh.

[Brian Green]

I think I would be like, wow, that takes balls, girl.

[Chrissy]

Right?

[Brian Green]

That takes gumption. You got gumption.

[Chrissy]

Not only do the racing stripes on your car.

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Chrissy]

Take gumption, but yeah, that, that, that.

[Brian Green]

Goes NASCAR decals on the side. That's right. NASCAR on the side. Party in the back. I mean, listen, I do understand how parents are upset about this because if you have children that can read then and understand anything about the world in 2024, OnlyFans is something they're going to know about.

[Chrissy]

I mean, I guess I feel the worst for her own kids.

[Brian Green]

Oh yeah, they've got to be terribly upset.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Mommy Jacob at school says you have nice nipples.

[Chrissy]

I mean, to be fair, with only fans you have to create accounts and log in and pay. So it's not like you can just pull it up.

[Brian Green]

No, but I mean, all it takes is one kid with their parents, credit cards, you know, like a fifth or sixth grader who's got the mommy and daddy's credit card for pizza. Listen, you have any long distance phone calls I made to sex hotlines when I was a kid and that blamed it on everybody else but myself? It's not that strange. Then they take a screenshot and they send it around like, you know, look at, look at David's mom. Funnel four, Right.

[Chrissy]

I think that the kids are the ones that are suffering here.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, the kids are the ones that are suffering. So I do understand the concern. I don't argue how she makes her money. You want to be on Only Fans with your husband, your two consenting adults, go for it. But when you do have young children that are going to a Christian preparatory.

[Chrissy]

School, take some of that money and get another car and take that car to the drop off.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Or isn't there a bus somewhere around there? You know, put the kids on the. What is she. Just hold outside. Holding. Holding a sign when the bus comes by, pick up.

[Chrissy]

Private schools. Yeah, they do.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. I mean, they did for us. Or at least that's what my dad told us. I don't know where we ended up, but take that bus. I think that the school has every right in the world to tell this parent to cease and desist on the only fans propaganda inside of school grounds, please. We're trying to teach these children how to be nice young little Christians. And you putting an only fan signal or not?

[Chrissy]

I mean, I think it's kind of just weird, but I think it's weird for the kids. I think that it's weird for the kids.

[Brian Green]

I think you might have more of a. Yeah, I think it's weird for the kids and I think it's weird for the kids. I think it's weird for the teachers and for the children. How do you explain that one? Especially if there's really young kids who are starting to ask questions. Why is. Why is everyone upset with David's mom? Right. Well, because David's mom is, you know, Snapchatting her labia to everybody in school. The. I think you have more of a case if it's a public school. Right. You can say, you know, free speech and all that other, you know, right to whatever. Right to only fans. I'm not sure, but I think it gets a little bit more choppy. The waters get a bit more dicey when you're in a private school, especially one that's geared toward a religion that probably frowns upon this type of activity altogether.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

And so then the school has the right to say, private property, private school, follow our rules or get the fuck out. Right. I think that at the end is probably what shoots this whole idea in the foot. And she says, I want my kids to continue to go to this school, but I think I'm going have to pull them out. And I was like, the only thing that's pulling out is your husband.

[Chrissy]

Was she refusing to completely. That wasn't easy. I was too easy. Is she completely refusing to. No, he's an assist.

[Brian Green]

No, she parked across the street and she drops her kids off. She parks across the street, they walk across the street. So I don't think she's being particularly defiant. I really think she's talking to the news about that. Probably somebody else.

[Chrissy]

It costs a lot of money to get that on the. Put on the Back of the window, too.

[Brian Green]

It's at least 50 bucks. I mean, that's. And you know. Yeah, that's two hours of pumping. Pumping and dumping. Or you can make that $50. It's 25 bucks. How much? What is a. I don't even know what an Only fans costs. What isn't. What is an only fans cost? 19.99amonth or something like that. I guess you can determination yourself about how much to charge. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

The only reason I even know this is because I was watching the Real Housewives. They were talking about Denise Richards and, like, her only fanzies each month, and her daughters, too. And they range like Keisha Kesha.

[Brian Green]

Remember her? I do, yeah.

[Chrissy]

Hers is like 20amonth.

[Brian Green]

Cassia has only fans.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, but not everybody on Only Fans is having hardcore sex.

[Brian Green]

No, I understand that.

[Chrissy]

I got that on her own paid page to do whatever they want.

[Brian Green]

Okay.

[Chrissy]

You know, so. And it ranges, and I think Denise's was like $10 a month or something.

[Brian Green]

$10 a month to see Denise Richards. And then she's got her.

[Chrissy]

How you're seeing her. I mean, it could be her toe.

[Brian Green]

True. But I think we can make the assumption that only fans. I mean, not. I think we can make. I make the assumption that only fans pages are directed to some kind of nudity, risque behavior, something like. I don't know. I don't know that you would go, but maybe, I don't know. Didn't this Snoop Dogg do, like an only fans concert one time or some like that?

[Chrissy]

I think it's kind of just your paid page.

[Brian Green]

I think they tried to, like, make it go a little bit more mainstream, but I don't know, because why? And why don't we have an only fans page? Why don't we have a Wikipedia page? And why is no one talking about us on Reddit? Those are my three questions. I mean, if we had one of those, I would feel better about myself.

[Chrissy]

We can make our own Wikipedia page.

[Brian Green]

We can make our own OnlyFans page. But it's just more content we have to make for nobody. We're already making enough content to nobody.

[Chrissy]

Why would we then start Break room.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God, the break room. What a terrible, terrible idea. It was actually terrible. Terrible timing is what it was like within a month of starting the podcast. Do we really think anyone's gonna pay extra money to listen to more content from the commercial break? People must have thought we were a joke. They're like, you really want me to pay for an extra? And by the way, My brother did.

[Chrissy]

That was sweet.

[Brian Green]

He did, he did. Kevin did. I mean, Danny did. And thank you, Danny, for supporting it. And then when we stopped the, when we stopped the account two weeks later, Danny was like, don't worry about it. Just keep charging. And I was like, the 299amonth. He's like, I just want to support you guys. But I do have to say about our small venture into the subscription model, I don't think that content was worth paying for any money whatsoever. I'm not. That's why it's all free now is because we literally did 20 minutes of sleep talking and then expected you to pay for it. We were just getting. Remember that? We were only. There was a time, I know, when we only had one day a week to worry about and we were so stressed out about it. And now I've got to go on a 20 minute diatribe about Vince McMahon.

[Chrissy]

I thought about that this morning. I was like, oh, the good old days where we had four days a week.

[Brian Green]

Yes, four days a week. Some people are asking for five. You're out of your mind. No way. No. I say no. And then two weeks later, we're going to be like the commercial break now. Five days a week.

[Chrissy]

No. I draw the line.

[Brian Green]

Oh, you do? We'll see about that. Listen, if Spotify or Odyssey wants to pay us that Joe Rogan money, I'll be happy to do five days a week. Happy to do five days a week. I'm throwing that out there. The fifth day comes with an awfully big price tag. I want to go up from $7 an episode, making $7 an episode to 12.

[Chrissy]

I was gonna say we've got a very large gap for that one day.

[Brian Green]

Yes. Oh, yes. Hey, you know, you never know.

[Chrissy]

You never know.

[Brian Green]

You never know. But I feel like the, the thing to do is to downsize, like, not upsize, like, you know, I've been talking about Stern a lot. I don't know why, but Stern went down from five days a week to four days a week. Now he's three days a week. I'm sure his next contract will be two days a week. I mean, even some of the most popular people out there are just, they're just doing a little content here and there because they realize that putting out four hours of content a week is a ridiculous thing. Why I chose to do it, I don't know. But now I'm enjoying it because I feel like it keeps us going. Right? I feel like we're our, our wheels are greased Back when we did one episode a week, we had to record so many times over, we had so many mistakes. But then I also felt like we actually had, you know, whatever. Anyway, you got it.

[Chrissy]

We are where we are now. Now we're going with it.

[Brian Green]
