Frankie B Is Also, Taking Up Space!

Summary

The Commercial Break Podcast

Episode Title: Frankie B Is Also, Taking Up Space!
Release Date: April 18, 2025
Hosts: Bryan Green & Krissy Hoadley

---

Main Theme & Purpose

This episode of The Commercial Break delivers the show's signature blend of irreverent banter and satirical commentary, focusing chiefly on two main segments:

1. An evisceration of the recent “space flight” by high-profile celebrities (like Katy Perry and Lauren Sanchez) aboard a Jeff Bezos-funded rocket—a joyride spun as a grand, world-changing odyssey.
2. A roast and reaction to a classic Frankie B. video, where the over-50 YouTube “lifestyle guru” dispenses dubious and sometimes valid advice to men.

Through their snarky, improv-infused lens, Bryan and Krissy tear into the media spectacle and self-importance of the faux-astronauts, then pivot to lampooning (and semi-praising) Frankie B's attempted motivational talk. The episode is a trove of quotable one-liners, mockery, and the show's "chaotic, unpolished charm."

I. Space Tourism Satire: Katy Perry & the Bezos Rocket (00:02–24:48)

Key Discussion Points & Insights

• Faux-Astronaut Media Circus (00:02–04:28)

  • Bryan lampoons the news coverage and the staged press conference following the celebrity "space flight," emphasizing how little actual space travel was involved:

    “They took a very short plane flight, risking life, limb and pedicures... somehow managed to find a way back to earth...” (00:02)

  • Krissy and Bryan share disdain for the self-aggrandizement:

    “Thinking whoever you pray or meditate to, they did come back alive.” (01:49 Bry)
    “Deep breath, Brian.” (01:57 Krys)

• Did They Really Go to Space? (03:15–04:28)

  • Krissy withholds judgment about whether they broke the “space” barrier; Bryan scoffs at calling the Karman line “space.”
  • Host critique: The celebrities are “acting as if they're the first people to step on Mars...when there are so many things going on in this universe that need addressing.” (04:28 Bry)

• Celebrity Pageantry & PR Stunts (04:49–09:14)

  • Both hosts are critical of the spectacle:

    “The Kardashians did the play by play...the noted rocket scientist Kim Kardashian and her mother.” (04:49 Bry)

  • Bryan punctures the notion of profundity, replaying cringy press conference soundbites, mocking the focus on designer spacesuits and high-heeled boots:

    “That's what you wear to space. High heeled boots! Oh my God.” (09:30 Bry)

• Press Conference Roast (07:06–20:12)

  • Bryan fast-forwards through vapid Q&A, mimicking the moderator’s spiritual platitudes:

    “Can we just take a collective breath?...Why don't you just lick the shaft of Jeff Bezos?” (08:29 Bry)

  • Katy Perry and others described their otherworldly experiences in cliché, metaphysical language ("I feel super connected to love…") which the hosts reductively lampoon:

    “That's the one thing I will say about this: Thank God me, Katy Perry, did not blow up. Because I put the ass back in astronaut.” (09:20 Bry)

• The “Overview Effect” and Trite Revelations (10:26–14:23)

  • Guests at the presser try to articulate the "overview effect"—the awe of seeing Earth from above—but Bryan pokes fun, comparing their observations to everyday experiences:

    “Just like when I go out on my back porch, the moon is behind complete darkness. Something I hadn't realized till now, Chrissy.” (11:56 Bry)

  • The panel’s “profound” observations—quietude, love, unity—are undercut by the hosts' mockery and reminders of the environmental toll.

• Token Generosity, Media Staging (14:25–16:09)

  • An emotional tale about bringing a teacher's feather “to space” prompts further dry ridicule:

    “She pulled me up from the doldrums of private school and hoisted me right into the arms of the world’s richest man. And I took a space dick to the Carmen line.” (15:27 Bry)

• Space Video Footage & Instagram Culture (17:08–18:39)

  • The “space” video is analyzed—not as exploration, but a photo op for social media.

    “They are literally mugging for the camera because this is the best Instagram reel ever.” (17:46 Bry)

• Pointless Profundity vs. Real Change (19:33–21:31, 55:23–55:32)

  • Katy Perry’s speech about flower symbolism is eviscerated as hollow:

    “Oh here we go, with some long-winded explanation about why daisies are so important...” (19:41 Bry)

  • Hosts suggest the participants should have been more honest (“We just wanted to go on this amazing ride”) and urge focusing on meaningful earthly contributions instead (55:23 Bry).

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• “Putting the ass back in astronaut.” (09:20 Bryan Green)
• “That's the all-purpose shoes you want to take to space. It's high heel boots. Oh my God.” (09:33 Bryan Green)
• “Listen, confidence...it's so easy to get, Chrissy. So easy to get, so hard to lose.” (53:04 Bryan Green)
• “It's just basically all about control...your weak points are always going to be your weak points, and it's...never going to go away.” (45:16 Frank Bernardo, via Bryan's summary)

II. Reaction Segment: Frankie B’s “How to Be Fashionable & Fit Over 50” (26:21–54:08)

Key Discussion Points & Insights

• Setting the Stage and Frankie B's Persona (26:21–27:06)

  • Frankie B pitches to aging men about how to stay sharp in middle age.
  • The hosts quip about his signature style (“Look at that hair. That hair is a masterpiece...looks like ocean waves.”)

• Frankie B's 9-Step “Transformation”:

  1. Grooming – Lampooned as obvious (“No one has forgotten about grooming. What the fuck is he talking about?” (31:44 Bryan Green))
  2. Hairstyle – Bryan and Krissy note his outdated magazine advice (“You can’t find a magazine anymore, Frankie.”)
  3. Skincare – Criticized for claiming men don’t care about skin. Amused by his over-the-top product suggestions.
  4. Body – Urges getting out of your “bullshit comfort zone.” Bryan notes Frankie’s mix of insults and motivation.
  5. Diet – Frankie’s demonization of sugar and carb restriction prompt both mockery and mild agreement (“You’re the number one thing your body craves for energy. Sugar.”)
  6. Conquering Weak Points – Hosts highlight his vague, circular logic.
  7. Wardrobe Upgrade – Poked at for his simplistic “second thought” test and for his own limited wardrobe (“This coming from a guy who has worn the same shirt in every video...”)
  8. Posture – Bryan paints parody images of Frankie's supposed target audience.
  9. Confidence – Delivered as the magical byproduct of the other tips, lampooned as “skin deep” and unhelpful.

• Meta-Commentary on Frankie’s Delivery & Relevance

  • Bryan acknowledges that by Frankie’s standards, the advice is relatively sensible, albeit couched in an abrasive, comedic way.
  • Frankie’s self-contradictions, presumption of audience incompetence, and outdated references are mined for laughs.
  • The segment ends in nostalgia for “golden age” Frankie B. content.

Frankie B’s Advice Satirized

• “Cut your nose hairs, go to the gym, start eating well—confidence! So easy to get, so hard to lose.” (53:04 Bryan Green)
• “If you are, your divorce is imminent. 50s and you’ve never…done a workout routine.” (38:12 Bryan Green)
• “Go get yourself a magazine, look through some hairstyles. Go on BMG Music and order 100 CDs for a penny.” (33:58 Bryan Green)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• “Chacha Ita—that’s not a word. Cha-cha. I know a lot of Spanish and I don’t think chacharita is a word, but hey, I like it anyway.” (39:54 Bryan Green)
• “You owe Macy’s $250,000, Planet Fitness $30,000.” (53:32 Bryan Green)
• “He fits his fashion fits his form. And he’s a relatively good looking dude for over whatever he is, getting close to 60, I think. But assuming everybody is the opposite—I don’t think is the right assumption…” (50:01 Bryan Green about Frankie B.)

---

III. Recap & Closing Thoughts (54:08–56:40)

Key Takeaways

• Bryan clarifies his satirical criticism isn't gendered and would apply similarly to male or female space tourists.
• Both wish celebrity “space tourists” would be more humble and honest about their motives, advocating for real-world change over hollow symbolism.
• Teasing upcoming TCB content marathon and inviting listener engagement.

Transcript

[Brian Green]

And welcome back to WSHIT 715 NEWS. It's news you can use before you snooze. In breaking news, the whole world is talking about the astronauts who became astronauts by not even traveling to space. In a giant leap forward for humanity, these five brave souls took a very short plane flight, risking life, limb and pedicures, and somehow managed to find a way back to earth, safely leaving the entire world in awe and not a dry eye in the house. Our intrepid WSHIT reporter on the ground managed to catch some of the first words out of one of these astronauts mouths. Words that will certainly be written about and remembered in the history books. These words are already reverberating around the entire globe. Such profundity could only be expected from someone who experienced such a journey.

Let's listen to that clip now or officially an astronaut.

[Katy Perry]

Thank you so much.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

How do you feel?

[Katy Perry]

I feel super connected to love. So connected to love. I think this experience has shown me you never know how much love is inside of you. Like how much love you have to give and how loved you are until.

[Rachel (Voice of God on TCB)]

The day you launch.

[Brian Green]

The astronauts went on to say that they only survived the ordeal because they hung onto their motto of taking up space. Taking up space indeed. These brave humans truly are putting the ass back in astronaut. We'll be back after this commercial break. On this episode of the commercial break.

That is the one thing that I will say about this is thinking whoever that you pray to or meditate to, they did come back alive.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Deep breath, Brian.

[Brian Green]

Just as vapid as I thought I was. So self important. Thank God. Thank God me, Katy Perry did not blow up because I put the ass back in astronaut.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

She's put Florence Sanchez on like high heeled boots too.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Because that's what you wear to space. That's the all purpose shoes you want to take to space. It's high heeled boots. Oh my God.

The next episode of the commercial break starts now.

Oh yeah. Cats and kittens, welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is my dear friend and the co host of this show, Chris and Joy Hoadley. Best to you Chris, and best to you out there in the podcast universe. Thanks for joining us. I don't want to delay right now, Chrissy. I want to get into it because there's a lot of, there's a lot of conversation that's going around about our fearless cackle of geese that went to waiting for flight. Yes. That went to the Karman line. It's also known as Space to some people. Not to me, but to some people also known as space. How do you feel about that? Did they go to space or did they not go to space? Or is that not for you to figure out?

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I mean, it's, you know, I mean, they went up really, really high. I don't know if I would consider that Space.

[Brian Green]

I think that's a good way of putting. Went up really, really high.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I would not consider that necessarily. Space.

[Brian Green]

No, I don't think it's space. You know, there are people that actually have been to space, people that have like slipped the surly bonds of Earth. So as Reagan said after the Challenger space shuttle disaster, which by the way, I remember watching that live and how emotional that moment was, even as a seven year old or however old I was. That was. That was intense. That whole Challenger thing. Those people on their way to space.

[Frank Bernardo]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

Katy Perry, the morning news anchor of Oprah's best friend and the girlfriend of the rocket Dick owner. Not necessarily heading off to space. And I find this to be an exercise in futility and opulence.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

And there's been a lot of blowback. Yes, there has.

[Brian Green]

And I think rightfully so, if I'm being honest. I think rightfully so. I don't argue anybody's right to go to space.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah, no, but why didn't they just say we just wanted to do this and like go up really, really high?

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Go on the best ride of our lives.

[Brian Green]

We're going on a really cool roller coaster that cost a billion and a half dollars to complete this journey from one end to the other. Instead, they're acting as if they're the first people to step on Mars. And it's ridiculous how self important all these people just think they are when there are so many things going on in this universe that need addressing.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

The resources.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, the resources, the time, the air time. The Kardashians did the play by play. That's all you got to know about. This is the Kardashians. The noted rocket scientist Kim Kardashian and her mother. Yeah. Were invited to do the commentary on the space mission liftoff thing. And it was just about as dumb as it was a PR stunt. Like I have never seen. Oh, really? I mean, since the Tyson Paul brother fight, I have never seen a PR stunt so stupid in my entire life. But that's the name of the game in 2025. How dumb can you be? And draw as much attention to yourself as possible. But what really caps this off? Listen, I think if they had gone to Space and then told everybody post. If they had gone to the Karman line and told everybody post, Karman line. Hey, you know what I did? I got a ride on a rocket ship and it was really cool, you know, didn't really mean anything, but at least I took a ride. We did it. Congratulations. But all the hype leading up to it, all the press leading up to it, and then the press afterwards puts the icing on the cake. Now, I know you've seen some of this, but I wanted to quickly get into reviewing the press conference. The absolute fluffing that took place after these ladies landed on Earth. Now we're in a very staged. I just want to set it up for the listener. You can go to YouTube.com the commercial break. We're on a stage. It's very staged. There are cactuses on each end because they're in the desert. They have to let you know they're in the desert. There's a huge image of the penis in right behind Katy Perry's head. Yes. And then the audience is filled with press and family and friends. So all the other rich folks are in there also applauding the journey to nowhere, essentially. So I'm going to skip all of the complete nonsense that is the human being. I think she's a sports reporter for espn. She is doing the, like, interview. Yeah, she's the interview. She is the moderator of this panel. All the. I'm not going to call them astronauts. All the ladies who went on the ship, on the dick ship, they're all sitting there in their spacesuits, which are highly tailored to their physical forms.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I mean, apparently Sanchez, what's her. Lauren Sanchez. Lauren Sanchez, yeah, she designed or got the, you know, commissioned the design and.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God. Honestly, it looks like they're posing for an Instagram. It looks like they're Instagram influencers in these. That is not a spaceship suit. I mean, listen, I also don't argue that astronauts should be comfortable and look good doing their job. But this is so. These are so highly tailored. Like, every inch of Katy Perry is seen in this hiding.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Lauren. Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Tight fitting space. Anyway. Okay, here we go. Ready? I'm going to skip all the fluff. We're about 10 minutes in. They're getting to the question and answer part. First we're going to hear from Lauren Sanchez, then Katy Perry. Then if we cannot throw up on ourselves, we'll eventually get to Oprah's best friend. Okay, here we go. And bear with me, I got to jump around this a little bit and Since I'm not, you know, we're not. I'm not Howard Stern. I don't have the ability to just like jump from one clip to the next. I'm gonna have to scroll through. So hold on here. Okay.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

What about as I heard you speaking, and I want to get into it with all of you guys. First of all, just I felt like.

[Brian Green]

Yes, please, I want to get into it. I want to take a deep dive on your shallow flight.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

We should all do one big breath in and one breath out.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God. Could you please breath in? Why don't you just lick the shaft of Jeff Bezos? Why don't you do that? Everybody bending to the will of everybody else. Why not be an actual reporter and go, was this a trip to space? Really? That's the first question I would ask.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

It's like collective sigh of relief that you guys are back. That you are.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

That what? It didn't blow up?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, that it didn't blow up.

[Frank Bernardo]

Well, you know what?

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I don't know what else could have happened.

[Brian Green]

Exactly.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Like a big sigh of relief. You were supposed to come back down.

[Brian Green]

After seven seconds in space with absolutely no images to prove that you are there. That is the one thing that I will say about this is think whoever that you pray to or meditate to, they did come back alive.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Deep breath, Brian.

[Brian Green]

Just as vapid as I thought I was. So self important. Thank God. Thank God me, Katy Perry did not blow up because I put the ass back in astronaut.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

She's got Florence Sanchez on like high heel boots, too.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, because that's what you wear to space. That's the all purpose shoes you want to take to space. It's high heel boots. Oh, my God.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Just this incredible experience that you've had. And I know all your friends and family that are here in the front few rows also feel like we should just take a deep breath. So shall we do it? Okay. I'm going to count down from three. We're going to breathe in and out. I love yoga. Here we go.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God. I'm already sick to my stomach about this.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Three, two, one.

[Brian Green]

All right.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Don't we all feel better?

[Brian Green]

Okay. Don't we all feel better? Aren't I doing a great job of conducting this press conference? Professional, am I?

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Okay? I know I do, Lauren.

[Brian Green]

I know I do. Well, thank God for me.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Congratulations.

[Brian Green]

I love yoga, by the way.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Congratulations.

[Brian Green]

I love yoga and long walks on the beach.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

I want to start with you in researching.

[Brian Green]

I want to. I have to start with you because Jeff told Me to start with you?

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah, yeah.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

This entire process, I heard a lot about. About the overview effect and it was something that I didn't know anything about. But what I have learned that you.

[Brian Green]

Learned with a T. Well, that's all it was, right?

[Chrissy Hoadley]

It was to go up there and.

[Brian Green]

See the curvature of space. By the way, there are pictures. You can do that. There are pictures. Other people have taken pictures now we'll.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Be able to share, to experience is because when people that go up to base and see Earth from space, they come back and their perception of Earth is different. How has your perception.

[Frank Bernardo]

Amazing.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Of Earth changed now? I know, albeit it's only an hour or so since you've been back, but how do you feel?

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Yeah, definitely still processing.

[Brian Green]

Right?

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

We all talked about that.

[Brian Green]

We all had a little pow wow before we came out. Got Botox and then we came. We got additional Botox. Holy shit.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Cat lady. On the way to cat lady. On the way to cat lady.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Profound is like the one word I would use.

[Brian Green]

That's the one word I was thinking too, when I was thinking about this flight is how profound it all really was.

[Katy Perry]

There.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

And you see Earth and then, you know, it's completely black. But what we got was the moon.

[Brian Green]

It's space.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

We got to see the moon. And it was in complete and utterance, darkness. And then you look back at Earth and it's like this beautiful.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Like the pictures have shown.

[Brian Green]

Just like when I go out on my back porch, the moon is behind complete darkness. Something I hadn't realized till now. Chrissy. It's the overview effect. When I see a presentation and it has the word overview on it, I completely blank out.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

It was quiet. It felt like it was breathing. It was so alive.

[Brian Green]

I heard that those microphones on that ship and all that was going on was screaming. For three and a half straight minutes, you guys were. You ladies were screaming at the top of your lungs.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

And that's kind of what I felt, just this aliveness of Earth. But you look at it and you go, wait a second. We're all on this planet, all the people that we love. This is it. And that's. I was like.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

And that's why I came back. And now I want to help the guy from El Salvador.

[Brian Green]

That's right. I want to come back. And now I'm going to help Jeff get.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Now I've got to get back to planning my wedding.

[Brian Green]

I've got to get back to a state dinner with Trump and Melania. I'm sorry, I've got things to do, places to go. Imagine other people are still stuck on Earth.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

We have one planet. Because out there it's dark.

[Brian Green]

It is.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

You know, William Shatner even said this when he went to space. And now I understand what he was talking about. It's like death. And.

[Brian Green]

Katy Perry in the audience.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

It's like death.

[Brian Green]

I don't even understand what she said, but it sounded really pretty.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

No, it just made me want to.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Oh, yeah.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Just come back with an open heart. And it really opens me wide open. And hopefully I can bring that to other people and also just protect.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, there's a lot of other people that could use that open heart empathy. I look forward to seeing it.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Planet we're on, I mean, this is the only one we've got. So I'm completely, completely and utterly humbled by this experience.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

That's why the yacht that I get.

[Brian Green]

On next week, the yacht that consumes 75 million gallons of diesel every five minutes. And by the way, we're going to make the boxes even bigger for Amazon. You ordered one razor. A 12 foot by 12 foot by 12 foot box. Yes. Wow.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

And. And beyond.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Grateful. Absolutely. There are so many people on this planet that you love and care about. You have one in particular that you would like to highlight today. Who is that?

[Brian Green]

Who is that? There's so many people on this planet that you love. Which other planet did you assume those people were gonna be on? Dumb Paris conference.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Tell us who all you love.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God. We're gonna have to watch. We're gonna have to have a palette cleanser with an actual astronaut space conference.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Oh, I get to do that right now?

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Yeah.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Oh, okay.

[Brian Green]

Oh, this wasn't completely planned out ahead of time.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Oh, there is one person who I. Let me just. I was in community college. I'll say this really quick so everyone has a chance to talk up here. I don't want to take up a lot of time. And she saw a little girl in the back of the room who never felt like she belonged. And she pulled her up and she got me tested for dyslexia. And my life kind of took off from there. And Lori, if you're here, I flew this feather to space.

[Brian Green]

She pulled me up from the doldrums of private school and hoisted me right into the arms of the world's richest man. And I took a space dick to the Carmen line.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Christine, this feather's for you.

[Brian Green]

And this feather, I'm not giving it back to you, but I just want you to know I flew it to space.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Laurie, there you are. Everybody put your hands together for Lauren's.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

I can give it to you later. I can give it to you later. But I just want you to know.

[Brian Green]

Put your hands together, please, for the lady that we're talking about. This. This moderator.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Unbelievable. Yeah, she's not moderating anything. She's like that moderator at the PodFest conference.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

This teacher changed here.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

We can pass it back.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

She changed my life.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

We can pass it.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, let's. Let's handle all that minutiae while we're all watching.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

For all of you teachers out there, just know that you have such an impact on the kids in your classroom. And that's why we would cut the Education Department.

[Brian Green]

That's why we've taken the Education Department, thrown it in the trash.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Lori, thank you so much for seeing the little girl in the back who didn't think she belonged.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Aw, thank you, Lori.

[Frank Bernardo]

Thank you.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Thank you, Lauren, for sharing that. I know that we thank you.

[Brian Green]

I'm sorry that you're so poor because you're a teacher.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

We all had the incredible privilege of seeing you guys go up, but we.

[Brian Green]

But I want to skip over to Katie because she's important.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Get to see what was happening inside the capsule. So why don't we take a look at that video right now?

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

We haven't seen it. I want to see myself.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Or wait less.

[Brian Green]

One, two, three.

[Frank Bernardo]

Take a space.

[Brian Green]

She's got a. She's got a fucking dandelion in her hair.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

It's a Daisy, and her daughter's name is Daisy. That's not to that, but this is.

[Brian Green]

How profound. How absolutely profound. They don't even really look like they're weightless. They're kind of like a little bit floating in space, but I guess gravity's still holding you down a little bit.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Oh, the moon, you guys.

[Brian Green]

I don't have to tell you. Look at the moon. Look.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

God, it's like riding in a car with one of my kids. Look at the moon, dad. Look at the moon.

[Frank Bernardo]

Look, look, look, look.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

Look at the moon.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Oh, my gosh.

[Brian Green]

Rather than focusing on the. What you're seeing is a bunch of people who are showing the. They're showing off for the camera. That's what they're doing. Not paying attention. There's no profundity in the moment. They are not. Lauren Sanchez is not coming to a realization about how many. How it's one Earth and it's breathing. They are literally mugging for the camera because this is the best Instagram reel ever. Whoa.

[Frank Bernardo]

That's amazing.

[Brian Green]

So Far Katy Perry has shown 15 things to the camera and is paying no attention to what's going on outside. There's only three and a half minutes to be in up there. I. I wouldn't give a shit about the camera.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Wow, wow, wow. So incredible. What a moment for humanity.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

Katie's face says it all right there. So, Katie, I'll jump to you for a comment. You holding up that Daisy? I know you got to tell me outside the capsule how important that was. Not only.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I'd actually like to hear from the other people that weren't.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, well, good luck with that because they know exactly what this is. It's a PR stunt and they need the pr. And so Lauren gets to talk first. She is the boy. She is the girlfriend of Jeff Bezos. Katie gets to talk second because she's in the famous line, the second one down. Well, she's really the most famous. But. Right. You know, Lauren has to talk first.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

But everything that it encompasses for you, and I would love for you to share it with the audience.

[Brian Green]

And you can make a rocket go to the moon, but you can't make a microphone work for five minutes.

[Katy Perry]

I don't know if I can cry anymore. Daisies. Sometimes people consider daisies weeds because they grow everywhere.

[Brian Green]

Oh, here we go. With some long winded explanation about why daisies are so important and through everything.

[Katy Perry]

And they show up and they in so many different places. But daisies are just so resilient.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I knew it.

[Katy Perry]

Flowers for me, I believe, are. Are like God's laughter and God's smile. And I brought a daisy because I have so much love for my daughter Daisy. And I have so much love for Mother Earth. And I believe you can.

[Brian Green]

That's why I took a completely pointless, vapid exploration into high atmosphere burning a bunch of fuel, resources, time, energy and money.

[Katy Perry]

See the beauty in the Mother Earth in a single resilient Daisy. That's why I brought it.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

It's beautiful.

[Brian Green]

It's beautiful.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

When you saw even just a snippet of that right there. First of all, congratulations. You did it. You did it.

[Frank Bernardo]

You did it.

[Brian Green]

You did what? What?

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I don't know.

[Brian Green]

You got all that. You sat in the seat. Yeah. Yeah. No. What?

[Frank Bernardo]

No.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

What's funny about this, Chris, is that our instructor.

[Brian Green]

Please tell us what's funny.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Dr. Sarah, my new best friend, said you are my most success story because I've never trained. Anyone that was afraid to fly was a nervous flyer. So I consider you a big success and I'm so proud of us. I really Am proud of me, because I never in a gazillion years. And I just saw a video of us walking up the. I don't want to call it plank, but what do you. What's the proper. What's the proper thing, Lauren?

[Brian Green]

Sounds like they got a lot of training.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I don't know.

[Brian Green]

It sounds like they got a ton of training. I don't even know what it's called. That's right.

[Moderator (possibly Lauren Sanchez)]

You can call it. You can call it anything you want. You're an asshole.

[Brian Green]

But walk.

[Katy Perry]

Dancing on the threshold.

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Walking up the platform and people are ringing the bell and everybody's smiling and I'm just walking in. And it's because at that moment, I was so afraid. I just wanted to get into my seat because I just wanted to let the training kick in. I. I just wanted.

[Brian Green]

What training? What training do you need to go do nothing? What? Learn how to sit. Do you have to learn how to.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Sit, Chrissy, to get inside the capsule and sit down?

[Brian Green]

I don't know why this charges me up so much, but it charges me up. I just feel like. Like this is such a waste of our collective time.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Walking up there was a little daunting.

[Brian Green]

For me, and here I am spending time on it. But you gotta. But I. At least I have content to create.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

My friend is from Germany, so, you know, you have to appreciate the sense of humor. He says once you get there, you're going to feel like it's sex with the gods. Well, that's. Never had sex with a God, to my knowledge, so thank you for the visual. I didn't.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like a daisy. It's a weed. Everywhere it grows everywhere. It grows under our feet and in the flowers and in the sun.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

There was death out there. Katie has said daisies. Daisies. And Gail saying, sex with fucking the gods.

[Brian Green]

That's right.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Think that.

[Brian Green]

But I did think Neil Armstrong would.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Be proud that what all the stuff that you hear about the blackness and the blue is. It's a neon blue and it's still and it's quiet. And we were all feeling this experience together. I know I will never forget it.

[Brian Green]

There was cackling going on the entire time. What do you mean, still and quiet? There was nothing quiet about that flight for me.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

It just says to me, if I can do this. I was telling these guys, I might even now get my ears pierced. I've never gotten my ears pierced.

[Brian Green]

Oh, wow. Look what happened. Look, with that one small step. One small step for Man, Yes. This is unbelievable. I hope Christa McAuliffe is not watching this. I hope she's moved on in the ethers because Krista McAuliffe, a teacher who spent a year training to go up in space, one year away from her family and died a a horrific, terrible death in front of hundreds of millions of people. A true saint. Kissing the stars slip the surly bonds as Reagan said, was going up there to advance man's understanding of humanity in space and possibly onto the next step. She did it. And that is a woman who certainly advanced the causes in so many ways and became a martyr in the process for manned space flight. These ladies, while one, while wonderful in their own right, in their own professions, singer, you know, press person, boyfriend, girlfriend of the richest man in the world, while wonderful in their own professions, did zero for anything yesterday except cause a bunch of ruckus. And now sitting there sounding so self important, it just makes them all sound vapid. If I'm being to me, it makes them sound vapid. So Christa McAuliffe, the real hero. I say we should remember her today. And that is what I have to say about that. Chrissy.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

That's right.

[Brian Green]

Now let's get on to a vapid man. Let's move on from the vapid women. Let's get on to the vapid men. Frankie B. I have one in my pocket. I said we've done all the Frankie B's, but I'm really, I'm like a. I'm like a father saving the last cookies, hiding them away for a rainy day. That's right, for a rainy day. And I have a video that I've been keeping in my pocket from Frankie B. And so a from listener request Frankie B. Video when we get back. Stay tuned.

[Brian Green]

All right, from one self important video to another, Chrissy. I felt, you know, it's only fair that we take a potshot at the dipshit guys that are out there too. And our favorite dipshit, Frankie B. Well, not a new video, has an older video that we actually unbelievably haven't reviewed before. And so I give it no preface, I give it no conversation. Let's just get right into it. This is how to be. Well, I'll say this, it's how to be fashionable and fit for men over 50. Some tips and tricks, Chrissy, on how you too can, you know, get that.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Navigate the world.

[Brian Green]

That's right, bed those 20 year olds even well into your 50s. Look at that hair. That hair is a masterpiece. It looks like ocean waves.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Classic.

[Brian Green]

Gray background, black shirt, gray background, ready to rock. Here we go. God, I love Frankie.

[Frank Bernardo]

So in today's video, guys, we're gonna go over nine simple things that guys over 50 can do to look better.

[Brian Green]

Guarantee it won't be nine. Guarantee it won't be simple and guarantee it won't work. I feel the big dick now. I do have to, I do have to say I'm a. I'm a fan of the old intro. Like this is the older intro and I'm a fan of it. He's got scissors like Edward Scissorhands. Yeah.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

To the camera, even though he doesn't cut hair.

[Brian Green]

Who decided to put that in the intro anyway? Was that it had to have been him.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

My journey.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Him rising up out of the pool.

[Brian Green]

Like a Creed video. I love it. I love it.

[Frank Bernardo]

What's going on, everybody?

[Brian Green]

What's up, everybody?

[Frank Bernardo]

Welcome to today's video.

[Brian Green]

What's up, everybody? I've been up since yesterday at 4 o'.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Clock.

[Frank Bernardo]

Yo, if this is your first time here, my name is Frank Bernardo and this channel is geared for all guys out there, 50 and above, who want to up their game, look and feel better about themselves. But hold on, dudes. If you're a guy in your mid-30s or if you're even in your 40s, don't turn this.

[Brian Green]

But hold on, dudes. If you're a guy in your mid-30s, I can only imagine that some guy in his mid-30s stumbled upon this video and said, wait, there might be information in here for me. Chrissy, video off.

[Frank Bernardo]

Because it's going to contain some super valuable information that's going to catapult your ass all the way up to the 50 and above club.

[Brian Green]

Get a catapult. You just like Katy Perry on the dick ship in style.

[Frank Bernardo]

My take on this is far too many guys, once they enter into their 50s, you get complacent.

[Brian Green]

Everything I do get complacent all the time, Chrissy. Well into my 40s and I'm complacent.

[Frank Bernardo]

Well, I got a wife that I've had for 25 years.

[Brian Green]

I got no bag, is getting fat and ugly.

[Frank Bernardo]

I've had the same job now for 25 years too. Everything is perfect. I don't have to worry. My wife's not gonna replace me. My work, they're never gonna get rid of me. I'm too good for them. Shame on you. If you are the image you.

[Brian Green]

Of.

[Frank Bernardo]

A company, let's just sit here in sales. And you have let yourself go now for years and years and years. You're probably overweight, your hygiene is terrible. You probably dress up like, what the.

[Brian Green]

Fuck does that have to do with your job? Dress like shit. Your wife is fat, you're ugly, you're hygiene. You got pimples on your nose.

[Frank Bernardo]

Stop brushing your teeth, please.

[Brian Green]

When's the last time you put on deodorant? I can smell you from here, but stick around. I got some useful tips.

[Frank Bernardo]

How long do you think your company is gonna want that image? Okay. And when you finally realize that you're in trouble. And it's probably going to be too late. So, guys, in today's video, I put together nine things that guys over 50 need to do daily, weekly, monthly in order to not let in or what I just talked about happen before we get into them.

[Brian Green]

Frankie loses letters in words. Have you noticed this? It's like my favorite part about him speaking. It's like one of my kids who's just learning how to talk and they say things funny. So does Frankie. Now, I also misspeak a lot too. So I'm not throwing stones in a glass house. It's almost endearing. It's a little cute order in order to do things. By the way, nothing like the double bracelet on a man. Yeah, we get. What's better than one two bracelets?

[Frank Bernardo]

Oh, let Me remind you, if you.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Do like, it rings on there, too.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah. It never went out of fashion. Even though in the 90s, everybody was wearing multiple rings. Chrissy, for Frankie, it never went out of fashion.

[Frank Bernardo]

Give it one of these and hit the subscribe bell so you don't miss.

[Brian Green]

Any of the subscribe bell.

[Frank Bernardo]

My upcoming videos. All right, cowboys. So the first thing we're going to talk about is grooming. And this is a known fact that guys in their 50s completely forget about this.

[Brian Green]

That is not a known fact. No one has forgotten about grooming. My father is in his 70s and he still grooms himself. Yes. What the fuck is he talking about?

[Frank Bernardo]

Your hair in your nose, your ears, in your eyebrows grows at almost twice the clip as it did when you're.

[Brian Green]

Well, he's right about that. It's weird. As you get older and this doesn't happen in your 50s. This happens in your, like, late 20s. All of a sudden, the hair on your head stops growing. But that one hair in your ear, it shows up overnight.

[Frank Bernardo]

20S in your 30s, and before you know it, you got this monster face going on. There's Nothing.

[Brian Green]

I'm over 50 and I forgot how to groo.

[Frank Bernardo]

That bugs me more is when I'm talking to a guy, okay? And all I can see are his nose hairs or his.

[Brian Green]

Hey, Frankie, it's me, man, over 50.

With lots of nose. And crowd.

[Frank Bernardo]

Your hairs. Or let's go with these giant eyebrows, okay? It's like, what's he talking about? Because I'm so focused on what the hell is going on with this guy's face. It's like. Like, the only thing going through my mind is, does he groom? And if you are an older guy and you're going out on a date.

[Brian Green]

Frankie can't hold a conversation because he's too worried about your skin care routine.

[Rachel (Voice of God on TCB)]

Yeah.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

He's going over the terms of his.

[Brian Green]

Will, the terms and conditions, and you're.

[Frank Bernardo]

Not paying attention to this. Trust me, she's looking at it. So really pay attention to your grooming. The second thing we're going to talk about is your.

[Brian Green]

So far. Yeah, Hook em. Horns. Second thing, hairstyle.

[Frank Bernardo]

So, guys, if you've had that same haircut year after year, cut by the same stylist year after year, maybe it's time for a new stylist. If that girl or your barber has not suggested something new to you so.

[Brian Green]

Far, put on deodorant and change. Your Silas isn't working. Yes.

[Frank Bernardo]

And they're not doing their job. And you guys are all together, collectively in a rut. I think you maybe need to change your up a little bit. Why don't you get yourself a magazine, look through some hairstyles, Go get yourself.

[Brian Green]

A magazine, go on BMG Music and order 100 CDs for a penny. Change up your music style, Watch some.

[Frank Bernardo]

Videos for, for haircuts and styles for guys over 50. I guarantee you you will find something in there that you're going to see.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

You're going to you that they're not. They don't have Frankie's style.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I can guarantee you they don't have Frankie style. And I can guarantee you you can't find a magazine anymore, Frankie. I mean magazines just don't exist.

[Frank Bernardo]

That's gonna look good on me. But guys, you won't know until you try. So definitely change up your hairstyle. The third thing we're going to talk about is skin care. I venture to say that 99 of you guys don't even give a rest at ass about your skin rants.

[Brian Green]

Ass about your skin. I like the way he said that. You don't give a rat.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

There are plenty of men that I know care about their skin.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, Frankie, Chrissy, you're just not paying attention out there. Most guys literally don't even know they have skin. It's a fact, a known fact.

[Frank Bernardo]

And this is where you're really.

[Brian Green]

You looked at the men's magazines lately, Chrissy? It's a known fact.

[Frank Bernardo]

Listen to both. Because if you have old weather dried cracky skin, you're just looking older than you already are. And unfortunately, I mean the guy that.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

He is painting really is a batshit.

[Brian Green]

The guy that he is painting old.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Weathered, cracked face is the typical orange, peach blasting out of the nose, ear hair blasting out. Old, you know, no hygiene, not brushing your teeth, hair, old style hair. I mean, wow.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, he's really painting the picture of like an incel that lives in his mom's basement. I don't think most men are like that.

[Frank Bernardo]

You keep letting it go. The older you get, the harder it's going to be to reverse it and before you know it, it's going to be way too late. But if you attack it now, you could still save yourself. And it all starts with drinking water. That's the number one thing in having gorgeous good looking skin.

[Brian Green]

That's right guys, that is a good tip. Yeah, drink a lot of water, right?

[Frank Bernardo]

And gorgeous good looking skin and there's.

[Brian Green]

Nothing wrong with it. Do your avocado eggs, man.

[Frank Bernardo]

Having gray skin. Like I said it all starts with drinking 8 to 10 bottles of water a day.

[Brian Green]

8 to 10 bottles of water a day? I think. I think that's a little much. Slow down. Don't take medical advice from Frankie, guys.

[Frank Bernardo]

That's the first and foremost important thing. Then it goes with having a great, great skincare routine. That's face moisturizers, that's eye creams, it's wrinkle reducing creams. There's a lot of different products out there. Do your own.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, if you got $6,000 a month to spend. That shit's expensive. I. I looked for an eye cream, I don't know, about a week and a half ago. Yeah.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

They're $36 for, like an ounce. No, it's for an ounce. An ounce of it.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I'm saying that is on the low end.

[Brian Green]

Jeez, it was crazy.

[Frank Bernardo]

Homework. But whatever you do, do it.

[Brian Green]

So I just bought Vaseline and I smear it all over my eyes at night, and my son is like, what is that? I'm like, vaseline.

[Frank Bernardo]

Morning and do it at night. And soon, guys, you will notice a very wonderful change in the appearance of your skin. So the fourth thing we're going to talk about, guys, it's your body. Most of you are probably thinking, I.

[Brian Green]

Love talking about my body, Frankie. You know what?

[Frank Bernardo]

I'm just not happy with it. I could do better, but you know what? I'm in my 50s. Why am I going to start now? Where am I going with this? No one cares. My wife, she's happy. I work. They don't give a me. You know, if you're him and ha.

[Brian Green]

If you're him and Haman, what? If you're him and you're homin, do you him and ha? Or do you hum and ha? Do you hum and hate?

[Frank Bernardo]

It's time to take action and change your body type.

[Brian Green]

It's not take action now. Emergency. Pull the ripcord. You're fat, you're ugly, your skin's a mess, you got nose hair growing out of there. Your job, your boss is talking about you behind your back. Too late.

[Frank Bernardo]

All right, if you are in, your.

[Brian Green]

Divorce is imminent 50s and you've never.

[Frank Bernardo]

Done a workout routine, it's not too late to start because you're gonna kick yourself right in your balls. Or you're gonna kick yourself in your.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Right in the balls.

[Brian Green]

You're gonna kick yourself right in the balls. That's the funniest thing I've heard all day.

[Frank Bernardo]

Pass. If you waited another two years and then you decide to do it because at that point, you would have already changed your body. It's taken initiative. It's getting off of your dead ass and getting out of your bull bullshit comfort zone.

[Brian Green]

Wow, Frankie. Frankie is charged up about this, by the way, of all the videos that we have done, and we've done a lot of Frankie B. Videos. This is part of the reason why this is in the back pocket too, is because some of these tips are actually not that bad. He's like, he's trying to motivate you to understand that, first of all, it's not too late to change the way that you to change your body, be healthier, feel better about yourself, look better on a daily basis. He's going about it a weird way. He's trying to endear himself to the person on the other end by insulting them the entire time.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah, he's trying to kick people in the ball.

[Brian Green]

But this is not the worst advice Frankie has ever given. As a matter of fact, I would put it on the top end of advice Frankie has given.

[Frank Bernardo]

You're stuck in. It's taking that first step, and once you do it, it'll become habit forming. And then you're not going to want to stop because you're gonna start seeing changes in your body. Your clothes are gonna fit you better. People are gonna notice. People are gonna say stuff. Your wife is gonna be going, oh, my God, Chacharita. You look fantastic.

[Brian Green]

Chacha Ita. That's not a word. Chacha. I know a lot of Spanish and I don't think chacharita is a word, but, hey, I like it anyway. My wife went, chacha Rita. But I am. I say, I've been kicking myself in the balls and trimming my.

[Frank Bernardo]

Guys tend the first step. So the fifth thing we're going to talk about, guys, is what you put in your mouth. Now, if you did decide that you are going to go in the gym, you did decide you're going to break your ass. You did decide that you were going to build a killer.

[Brian Green]

Nothing like breaking your ass at the gym. All right. I can't wait to see what Frankie puts in his mouth. Let's take a break and we'll be back.

[Rachel (Voice of God on TCB)]

Let me do something Brian has never done.

[Astronaut participant (possibly Oprah's best friend)]

[Brian Green]

All right, Drill sergeant Frankie is teaching Chacha Rita Charita Chacharita. Drill sergeant Frankie B. Is teaching us how to be better in general. Over 50 years old.

[Frank Bernardo]

Beautiful body. Then kudos to you. But guess what? You could totally blow that. You could blow it in a new second when you go home. And blow.

[Brian Green]

What? What are we putting in our mouth, Frankie? Oh, okay.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

The body that you've all of a sudden built up by eating horribly.

[Brian Green]

Eating horribly. And chachorita over to the gym by breaking your ass and kicking yourself in the balls.

[Frank Bernardo]

You eat like. All right, it's time to start changing your eating habits. And we're not going to call it a diet, because diets, you'll never, ever going to hold to them, everybody breaks a diet. So let's just call it simply changing the way we eat. And it all starts with eliminating all sugars.

[Brian Green]

All sugars, all sugars, all sugars. I don't care what kind they are. Good, bad, indifferent. All sugars out of your diet. Chrissy, I'm coming over to your house. I'm going to raid your closet.

[Frank Bernardo]

Your number one poison. That's your number one demon. That's your number one evil. Get rid of all sugars. Yeah.

[Brian Green]

You're the number one thing your body craves for energy. Sugar. You can't eliminate all sugar from your diet. It's impossible. But okay, I get what he's saying.

[Frank Bernardo]

Go through withdrawals. You're going to go through convulsions. You're going to be going, oh, my God, I got my sugar.

[Brian Green]

He'll get over it.

[Frank Bernardo]

All right. Yes.

[Brian Green]

He needs to be a drug counselor. You'll get over it. Yeah. You like heroin? Okay. You'll get over it. Yeah.

[Frank Bernardo]

Need to start limiting your carb intake. Okay. You need to start upping your proteins. You need to start more vegetables, lean meats, lean chicken and drink.

[Brian Green]

Lean chickens. Where are the fatty chickens? Lean chickens. I didn't know they grew them. Fatty.

[Frank Bernardo]

Plenty of water a day. So if you start eating good, wholesome foods that are below your maintenance levels and you need to find out what your chloretic maintenance level is. It may be 2500 calories.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I think that's what I do to my pool. Yeah, I think that's the problem with my green pool is it's not chloretic enough.

[Frank Bernardo]

You need to be below that you need to be below that every day. And if you are, you will continue to lose weight. And the good thing about it, guys, is you are in a gym and you're building muscle. So while you're losing weight, you're building muscle. It's all harmony. You are going to look good. Because if you ebony and diversity, One without the other, if you just go on a diet without building muscle, you are going to look creepy, you're going to look saggy. And once you get that creepy, saggy skin, you're never gonna get rid of it. So you need to do both, guys. So the sixth thing we're gonna talk about.

[Brian Green]

I've seen you with your shirt off, Frankie. Now it's just a fact of life that all skin is going to start to sag. No matter how in shape you are, it's going to happen.

[Frank Bernardo]

Is conquering your weak points. Now, I'm not going to get into mine. I certainly have them, and we're not going to get in the earth because you certainly have them. But let me tell you something, gentlemen. If you have weak points that went from one to six on everything that I just talked about, every item from the first thing I talked about all the way down to the bottom, then, gentlemen, you are in a world of hurt. And there's probably.

[Brian Green]

If you have a weak point in your week, he's not going to talk about his and he's not going to talk about yours, but let's talk about yours.

[Frank Bernardo]

Yeah, no hope for you. But all kidding aside, guys, if your weak point is getting to the gym, make that step. If your weak point is eating right, well, make that step. Is it something that you're going to conquer right away? No. Is it something that you're going to conquer completely?

[Brian Green]

No.

[Frank Bernardo]

But you.

[Brian Green]

Are you gonna fail? Yes. Is this a useless exercise in me talking through this camera? Yes, it is. As all my advice, completely nonsense, of course, but give it a try.

[Frank Bernardo]

Have to give you.

[Brian Green]

By the way, he just gave you six steps you can take, and now he's repeating himself. He's just telling you, go back to the six steps and pick one. Exactly.

[Frank Bernardo]

Have to have the upper hand on it. You got to have control of your weak points or you're going to continue to cave. It's probably safe to say that you. Your weak points are always going to be your weak points, and it's. It's probably never going to go away. It's just basically all about control. So the seventh thing.

[Brian Green]

Understand a word that he just said.

[Frank Bernardo]

Number 50 need to do in order to look better, it's go through your wardrobe. You know, if you're a guy that's shuffling through the closet and you grab a shirt and you look at it and you have to give that shirt a second thought, Throw it in the Goodwill bag, Go to the next shirt, grab it, look at it. If you go, hmm, throw it in the Goodwill bag. Because you know what's gonna happen? You are gonna grab that shirt and you are gonna wear it. And that's what most of the.

[Brian Green]

What are you talking about? You're gonna give it a second thought, but then you are gonna grab it. You are gonna wear it.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Yeah.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

You're gonna wear it. At some point. It's gonna look like shit.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, listen, he's. This coming from a guy who has worn the same shirt on every video that we have ever done.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

The black shirt pluses out there are doing it.

[Frank Bernardo]

They are wearing their old stale wardrobe. And that's just total taboo. And it shows that you don't give a crap. I mean, guys, in order to make a statement, at our age, I believe it all starts with the way a man dresses. It all starts with your shoes. You work that outfit from the shoes up.

[Brian Green]

Oh, I go shoes up. I go dick down. That's what I do. I start with what makes my penis look bigger and then I work my way down. Yeah. And I don't worry it about the top.

[Frank Bernardo]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

You know, if I'm not going to get them from the waist down, Chrissy, I'm not going to get them all.

[Frank Bernardo]

About being in style. Don't be afraid to step outside the box. Don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone, because that's ultimately going to look better than the crap I think.

[Brian Green]

These guys you're describing. Don't be afraid to step outside, period. Yeah. Like you're describing a hermit.

[Frank Bernardo]

If you've had in your closet for the past several years, this is the only way that you're going to make a statement. And one thing that holds true to form, guys, is when you do go shopping for clothes, it's all about the fit. If you are a thinner man, okay. Don't wear big baggy clothes to hide your skinniness, okay? Because it actually makes you look worse. Because if you got short sleeves on and the sleeves are way bigger than your arms and they're swimming, it actually makes you look worse. Okay.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah, you need to wear too small shirt.

[Brian Green]

Yes. Like Frankie, Go2 sizes is smaller than you actually are. And then squeeze every little ounce into it. Favor.

[Frank Bernardo]

Get those sleeves tailored. Have them tuck in.

[Brian Green]

It'll actually tailor the sleeves on your short sleeve shirt. Okay. Yeah. It's going to the extreme level. You're assuming that everyone can afford to buy a new wardrobe every time they don't like a shirt and then go get the sleeves on a short sleeve shirt tailored. Just buy a shirt that fits well.

[Frank Bernardo]

Make your arms look better. And if you are a larger man in overweight man, a lot of you guys will try to camouflage your weight with big, drapey, baggy clothes.

[Brian Green]

Walking around here. I come with my nose hair and my sales job and my ugly wife and my moomoo from Walmart applies.

[Frank Bernardo]

They actually look a little better. If they're closer to your body, you will look much more structured. Don't, don't, don't be fooled by thinking you, whether you're skinny or whether you're big that you can camouflage behind your clothes. Just get the clothes that fit and the right style for you. All right, man, Almost there.

[Brian Green]

Oh, thank God.

[Frank Bernardo]

Each thing that guys need to do over 50 to look better is to definitely look at your posture. Posture makes a man. Posture says.

[Brian Green]

Hunched over 300 pound man with nose hair just like sprouting out of his nose. His wife is like, like something from the blue Lagoon. Frankie, you paint a picture, man.

[Frank Bernardo]

You really do a lot about the individual.

[Brian Green]

I think Frankie's under the assumption that a lot of people out there are the opposite of what Frankie is. I'm not saying there's a lot of men over 50 that are in such shape because you got to give it to Frankie. He is in good shape. There is no doubt about that. I give him credit where credit is due. He takes care of his skin. He's got hair plugs, but that's okay. We're learning to live with Frankie's follicles. He dresses not how I would dress. I can see how that would be attractive in a certain way. Shape or form. I would get rid of some of the jewelry and the big belt buckles and stuff like that. But okay, he fits his, he, he fit. His fashion fits his form. And he's a relatively good looking dude for over whatever he is getting close to 60, I think. But making the assumption that everybody is the opposite I don't think is the right assumption to make. I think most men are somewhere in the middle. They're not exactly taking care of every inch of their body, but they're also not ignoring things like women nose hair growing 3 or 4 inches out of your hair, out of Your nose.

[Frank Bernardo]

You know, if you are a guy that's constantly slumped over with your shoulders. Me like this, you know, hey, I'm Frank Bernardo. I'm going to do a video on how guys over 50 could look better. You know, you're not looking in the camera. How does that look?

[Brian Green]

Guys, why would you be looking in the camera? You're also assuming everybody's trying to be an influencer.

[Frank Bernardo]

Versus your shoulders back. Getting your head up, showing confidence. Well, that's the way it works in every everyday life. If you walk in a room and you've got great posture, you're gonna command attention. People are gonna notice that. But if you walk in a room and you're lazy and you're moxy and stuff like that, people aren't even gonna give up.

[Brian Green]

Moxy. I don't even know what that means. That's not a word.

[Frank Bernardo]

The time of day. So I would definitely check your posture. Go in a mirror. Look at yourself from all angles. You know, you're. If you are slumped, get your. Get your shoulders back.

[Brian Green]

Okay.

[Frank Bernardo]

It's just a matter of learning how.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

To get your ass back.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. He wants you to put your ass up in the. Squeeze those butt cheeks and get those shoulders backwards.

[Frank Bernardo]

Do it. And when you walk, keep your head up, never down. It looks like you're embarrassed, looks like you're hiding something. But when you walk and you're.

[Brian Green]

He's the Emily. He's the Emily post of YouTube for over 6, 60.

[Frank Bernardo]

Head is up. You're showing confidence, and you're showing power. Work on your posture, guys. All right, we are finally at tip number nine. And this is the most powerful tip that I could possibly have.

[Brian Green]

Oh, here we go. We've been waiting for this all video. Here it comes. The absolutely useless advice Frankie's about to drop on us for you.

[Frank Bernardo]

And that, gentleman is confidence. How do I get confident?

[Brian Green]

Everything's fixed. My life is better. I have confidence.

[Frank Bernardo]

Does it just grow on me? I'm gonna tell you how you get confidence. If you start doing everything.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Cut your nose hairs, go to the gym, start eating. Well, listen, confidence. It's so easy to get, Chrissy. So easy to get, so hard to lose. Once you have it about from steps.

[Frank Bernardo]

One to eight, guess what, guys? Confidence will automatically follow because you got great hygiene.

[Brian Green]

You.

[Frank Bernardo]

You got great skincare, you've got a badass haircut, you got.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Got a hundred thousand dollars in debt.

[Brian Green]

You owe Macy's $250,000, Planet Fitness $30,000.

[Frank Bernardo]

Like a king. And when you eat like a King, you look good and you feel good. You are dressing like a total rock star badass. And most of all, your posture is totally killer. So what does all that breed?

[Brian Green]

It breeds confidence, because confidence is skin deep.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Based on appearance.

[Brian Green]

Said every therapist ever.

[Frank Bernardo]

That's the end of the video, guys. I hope you enjoyed it.

[Brian Green]

All right, that's the end of the video we did. We really liked it. Thank you. All right, quick episode.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Pocket Frankie.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, yeah, listen, I just wish there was so much more of that dating content that he put out there, because that's where the gold is.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Remember too, that one that we reviewed where he was eating all the stuff that like.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

He was mimicking somebody.

[Brian Green]

Mimicking somebody that would.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

They would eat. Ho ho.

[Brian Green]

That's right, Ding Dongs. And I wish we could go back to the good old days of Frankie. But I think the golden age, at least for now, is gone because Frankie has a girlfriend and she won't let him do this anymore. She said do another video and I'm gone.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Yeah, rightfully so.

[Brian Green]

Oh, man.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

His travel. His travel days were good, too.

[Brian Green]

His travel. His travel videos are our gold also. But we just not getting any more of it. I guess we'll have to rely on Katy Perry and that group of women to bring us travel videos from now on.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

That's right.

[Brian Green]

The outer reaches of not outer space. There you go. And listen, let me be clear. I'm not beating up on women. I don't want to make it sound like that. They just happen to be women. If it was men, I would say the same. I've said the same thing about Shatner's trip, too.

[Interviewee (possibly another astronaut participant)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Not a. We're not doing anything fantastic. So. But, you know, listen, Jeff Bezos can spend his money how he wants to spend his money.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

I just wish they would paint it more as we just wanted to go on this amazing ride.

[Brian Green]

I wish they would. I wish they would read the room and understand how superfluous it sounds and.

[Chrissy Hoadley]

Is and maybe not make such a.

[Brian Green]

Big difference in this moment. Yeah. Like Katie could say. Yeah, I went to the Karmen line. It was beautiful. It was awesome. It made me realize that we really got to take care of Mother Earth. And it also made me realize that there's a lot of things down here on Earth that need attention. So let's get to that right now. Let's spend our time and resources doing some good out there. And what that is, that looks like. It looks different for everybody. But to make it sound like bringing a daisy in space. We was changed humanity forever. It's just dumb. Dumb as Frankie.
