Frankie's Kickin His Hermens

Summary

Podcast Summary: "Frankie's Kickin His Hermens"

The Commercial Break — June 4, 2026
Hosts: Bryan Green & Krissy Hoadley
Episode Focus: The return of Frankie B and a well-roasted deep dive into his latest video—an elaborate unboxing of (mispronounced) designer shoes, ridiculous lifestyle tips for men over 60, and loving jabs at YouTuber-influencer culture.

---

Episode Overview

This episode is a riotously unscripted, off-the-cuff breakdown of a new “Frankie B” YouTube video. Bryan and Krissy, joined at times by a recurring (possibly fictional) sidekick and the character "Frankie’s Follicle," gleefully lampoon Frankie B’s unintentional comedy, his notorious mispronunciations (“Hermès” becomes “Herman’s” or “Her Men’s”), and his insistence that thousand-dollar sneakers are essential style statements for older men. The hosts riff with reckless abandon, finding comedic gold in everything from Frankie’s décor and hairline to the idea that shoes—not personality or kindness—make the man.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Frank(ie) Renaissance (02:58–05:15)

• Bryan & Krissy celebrate the return of Frankie B to YouTube after a content drought, announcing “a gorge” of new videos.
  • "The commercial break in Frankie B will be tied inextricably in the universe as two peas in a pod." (Bryan, 03:41)
• Frankie’s new output means Bryan and Krissy can coast on commentary instead of prepping.

2. Setting the Scene: Frankie’s Florida Era (06:03–07:19)

• Frankie is seen riding a bright red Spree scooter, tank-topped and tanned, around a clear Florida suburb.
• The hosts riff on scooter culture and Frankie's flamboyant style, noting how his video intro is overly dramatic and self-serious.

3. Unboxing “Herman’s/Her Men’s/Hermès”: The Shoe Saga (08:08–13:21)

• Frankie unboxes what he claims are “Hermès” (but consistently calls “Her Men’s”) designer gym shoes.
  • Memorable mispronunciation recurring throughout the episode.
  • "He says ‘her men’s.’ Is that true? Oh my God." (Co-host, 12:19)
• Claims his fiancée found $1,300 Hermès sneakers on eBay for $350, then readily admits it on camera, undermining his “luxury lifestyle” narrative.
  • "Now, okay, I would've just left that part out." (Bryan, 15:47)

4. Shoe Philosophy: Style or Nonsense? (13:41–16:39)

• Frankie insists shoes are the first thing people notice about a man, declaring them the foundational element of style, especially “over 60.”
  • "Your shoes are the first thing that people subconsciously look [at]. And I love it." (Frankie B, 27:10)
• Bryan and Krissy push back, poking holes in the logic and relishing in the absurdity of a 10-minute unboxing as real “content.”

5. Fashion Drama, Décor Roasts, and “Whack-Off Hands” (25:41–29:10)

• Shot-by-shot, they tear apart the details in Frankie’s patio—faux-ivy decorations, a bizarre pair of wooden mannequin hands in suspicious poses, an out-of-place gold mirror, and a life-sized golf statue.
  • "He has two statues... wooden wackoff hands." (Bryan, 26:44)
• Frankie’s infamous hair transplant gets the business with the return of “Frankie’s Follicle,” a recurring segment where his “escaped” hair narrates a scornful update on life post-head.

6. The Art of Saying “Hermès” & “Nike”—Or Not (37:22–43:01)

• Frankie mangles both "Hermès" (as "Herman’s") and even manages to say “Nike” as “Nikee", prompting a barrage of disbelief, mockery, and laughter from the hosts.
  • "He's holding the camera in his hand and it's at the wrong angle. You can't go under." (Chris, 29:32)
  • "How is it possible for you to mispronounce like this?" (Bryan, 43:01)
• “Styling tip” takeaway is mocked as Bryan summarizes: basically, “Wear nice shoes. Don’t look disgusting.”

7. Lifestyle Guidance, “Fashion Statements” & Overstated Luxury (44:24–46:41)

• Frankie wraps his video with the old “look good, feel good” mantra, urging senior men to invest in top-tier shoes and avoid (gasp) blue jeans.
  • "I'm not a big believer in blue jeans. In fact, I hate blue jeans." (Frankie B, 44:42)
• Bryan asserts, “You don’t have to go spend $1,500 on it, first of all.” He and Krissy gently roast how tone-deaf and out-of-touch Frankie’s consumer advice is.

---

Notable Quotes & Standout Moments

• On show philosophy: “We laugh at ourselves, and who fucking cares anyway?” (Bryan, 03:24)
• On the scooter intro: “Nothing says bright red scooter like death metal.” (Bryan, 07:01)
• On Hermès/Herman’s: “Maybe it’s a different brand. Maybe we’re not... Maybe it’s not Hermès.” (Bryan, 12:47)
• On fashion advice: “Anybody with a sense of style is gonna know automatically how big your dick is based on your airmen’s shoes. Herman’s shoes, first of all.” (Co-host, 27:40)
• On aging/influencer looks: “When we first saw Frankie, you could call him a lot of things... but he was a handsome looking older guy. He was fit. He was fresh. He looked good. Yeah... Now, he’s on island time.” (Bryan, 30:11)
• On blue jeans: “I think they’re real, regardless of whether you believe in them or not." (Bryan, 45:00)

Tone & Atmosphere

• Wildly irreverent, rapid-fire, and self-deprecating. The hosts oscillate between sincere affection for their internet friend/foil Frankie B and wickedly sharp satire.
• Running gags include mispronunciations, podcaster “lifestyle” woes, and the idea that watching Frankie B is a form of group therapy for TCB.

---

For Listeners Who Missed It...

This episode is vintage TCB: a freewheeling, affectionate evisceration of viral “influencer” absurdities. Bryan and Krissy gleefully dissect a monumentally silly Frankie B video, lampooning how seriously he takes gym-shoe fashion, his inability to pronounce luxury brands, and the superficiality of influencer “wisdom.” There’s plenty here for first-timers—just don’t expect a linear narrative or actionable advice. Instead, it’s podcast comfort food: inside jokes, relatable banter, and the joy of laughing at the posturing of internet personalities who, in the end, might not be that different from the rest of us.

---

Essential Takeaways

• If you’re over 60: Expensive “Hermès” sneakers apparently change your standing in society (!), but please, learn to say the brand name.
• For everyone else: Enjoy the spectacle, remember that luxury goods don’t equal wisdom, and appreciate the comedy gold of both intentional and accidental influencers.
• For TCB fans: Frankie B is back. So are Bryan and Krissy’s deliciously deranged (and occasionally heartfelt) breakdowns. The “golden days” are here again.

[Brian Green]

On this episode of the commercial break. I'll Google it. I'll see if I can find anything about Herman's Hairman.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Herman.

[Brian Green]

Herman.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Herman.

[Brian Green]

Hermann's. I'll see if I can find anything about Herman's because Herman's and Hermes are two different things. I think my grandpa used to shop at Herman's.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Is the Herman's GLP ones?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, Herman's GLP ones.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Why, Brian 3000.

[Brian Green]

All right. And you know the lady moisturizing gel. I don't forget what they call that. But the stuff you put in there and you're. You're wet and ready to go. The next episode of the commercial break starts now.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

2:30 in the morning.

[Brian Green]

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 Joy Hoadley.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Best to you, Chris.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Best to you, Brian.

[Brian Green]

Best to you out there in the podcast universe. How the hell are you? Thanks for joining us. There we go.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

That looks better.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, that was weird.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

We were on opposite side.

[Brian Green]

I think I flipped it the. I think I. Yeah. Anyway, we're flipping all over the place. We're flipping out for you, the listeners. All right. Okay.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

We're here.

[Frankie B]

We're back.

[Brian Green]

We're. When you're listening to this, if you're listening to this on the podcast version, Chrissy and I are on our fifth vacation of the year. But you know, we'll return soon. Don't worry about us. I think when you're listening to this, we'll be back next week on live YouTube.com the commercial break. Don't forget about it. Okay, kids, here's how it goes. If you were listening earlier this week, you probably heard us talking to Alison Hare. Alison quickly deciphered that when we have no strategy in our show, we do no research about our show and we have no intention of being funny on our show.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Let it fly.

[Brian Green]

Yes, I think she was a little disappointed with our answers, actually. I think she was hoping we'd give

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

some wisdom, like, magic formula.

[Brian Green]

We do have a magic formula, but we're not giving it to you.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Rickety dockety.

[Brian Green]

I play this game with my daughters where I switch their personalities. So let's call them June and Jane. So I'll be like, dibbledy goggity biggity boo. I'm going to switch Jane for you, and then I'll call the other one Jane. And it just drives them up a wall.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Daddy, I want to be myself.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

That's fun.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yeah, that's fun.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, it's fun. To psychologically terrorize my children, you have to entertain yourself. Yes. So just like that, we sometimes pretend we're a funny comedy podcast.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

We laugh at ourselves.

[Brian Green]

We laugh at ourselves, and who fucking cares anyway? But I think Allison was a little disappointed by our lack of wisdom.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

We were honest.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

We didn't lie. We just said what?

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

I don't know.

[Brian Green]

Glad you enjoy it. And one of the things she also quickly deducted. I think a lot of you have deducted this is that the show is at its best when we're letting somebody else be funny. And there's only one name that comes to mind. I mean, the commercial break in Frankie B. Will be tied inextricably in the universe as two peas in a pod. Serendipity struck us early on with Frankie B. But as we mentioned with Allison, there are droughts and floods of Frankie B. Sometimes we get a wash with new videos, and then there have been months, sometimes half a year, where there's nothing new from Frankie B. Or nothing that we see anyway. However, our fate, as luck would have it, our fate has changed, Chrissy. And we have now been blessed with another download. An absolute gorge of new Frankie B. Videos. And this is very exciting news for all of us here at the commercial break because it means we don't have to think of things to say. We can just watch Frankie B. Videos all day. Frankie put out about six new videos in the last 30 days. Some of those, I think, are including a woman maybe that he's dating. Okay, so. Or it seems maybe it's that same woman that we've seen in other videos of his that seems to be his friend, but they, like, talk about relationship stuff a lot.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Anyway, yeah, she was involved in the Salon Suite.

[Brian Green]

She was involved in a Salon Sui. Salon Suis. I have a place right down the street called Salon Suites.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I've passed it. And also, anytime I pass, because they are. They're all over town. Yeah. And so anytime I pass it, I think of him and how he started it. Or he thinks he started it.

[Brian Green]

He thinks he started it. Yeah, he really did. But he thinks, well, let him be. Leave him alone. He's getting old. He's like Trump. He's losing his mind. So Frankie is back. Better than ever. Redder than ever. As Chrissy said to me earlier, you look tan. Well, so does Frankie. We're all looking tan these days. Why don't we just get to it? Because I think this is a 10 minute video. So the amount of times that we'd like to interrupt Frankie, this could take the entire episode. We just get right to it here in the first segment of the show. Look at us, breaking the moment.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Let's just preface it too by saying it looks like he. He's got a whole new intro.

[Brian Green]

Oh, I can't see you.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh, that happened yesterday with Krishy.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Krishy, Krishy. I want Krishy.

[Brian Green]

Here, let's see if we do this. Oh, there we go.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Okay, that's better. Let's make a smaller. Anyways, to preface this, he has a new intro and he is on a bright red.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

So.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Scooter.

[Brian Green]

Bright red scooter. You remember those spree scooters that used to be popular in the early 90s? The Spree. I remember that. My friend got one like. And we were 12 or 13 and we would take that spree and drive around the neighborhood and I crashed it. Crashed it. I crashed it. The tailpipe landed on my leg and it put a permanent scar on my. On my leg.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah. That's painful.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, it was. It felt bad for many weeks. Okay, here's Frankie and his bright red scooter. Brand new intro. Looks like he's down in Florida.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

He's ripping. Rip roaring around.

[Brian Green]

Rip roaring around town on his spree.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Shouldn't he have a motorcycle or something? You would think.

[Brian Green]

All right.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

Whee.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

He's pulling out of his driveway.

[Brian Green]

Nothing says bright red scooter like death metal.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, I know, right?

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

He's got a bright red tank top, white shorts.

[Brian Green]

Not the five inch seam, the seven and a half inch seam. Gotta go all the way down to the knees when you get that old.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

And he's driving around.

[Brian Green]

Remember? Do you remember Ed? Big Ed with the big neck. He used to drive around a scooter around San Diego with his dog in the back.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

This is what this reminds me of.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Wow.

[Brian Green]

Wow.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

How does he get that close up when. Look at those glasses.

[Brian Green]

I have no idea. How does he get the close up

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

of his face while he's riding.

[Brian Green]

I don't know.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

There we go.

[Brian Green]

Look at that.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Gold chain. Black, dark, black glasses.

[Brian Green]

That could be gold rim. Yeah. Gold rimmed sunglasses. Yeah. I mean, I don't fault them for the women's sunglasses. Sometimes, you know, men have cool sweaters and boxer shorts that women like to wear. And sometimes ladies have accoutrement that men like to wear. But this is ill fitting and it looks terrible.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

How do you like my sunglasses?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Slick back.

[Brian Green]

I borrowed him from my daughter. Why such a long intro? Do it? Is. Is anybody really that interested in Frankie

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

on his bright red scooter except us?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, that's right. Oh,

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Testosterone arrived. For those of you listening, he pulls up to his house.

[Brian Green]

A house.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Pulls up to his house in his bright red scooter.

[Brian Green]

He's a Francis Ford Coppola. He's making a video here.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

He's got the shot of him driving,

[Brian Green]

pulling in the driveway, and now he's picking up a package from his front door.

[Audience Member or Interjection]

Wow.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Boner pills are here.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Why Ryan 3000?

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Why Ryan 3000?

[Frankie B]

About damn time. So I have been waiting for this for a very long time.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

He shows my girlfriend.

[Brian Green]

It took a longer. No, no, no. On the beard. On the beard. No, no, no. Some people can pull this off when you have light, light colored hair.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Well, it's gray.

[Brian Green]

It's. Well, it's gray, but it's like it's bleached by the sun. He's got dark hair and bleached beard. So it doesn't look like a beard. It looks like.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

I don't know.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Whisper.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, like you take that magic powder stuff. Yeah, just put it on your face.

[Frankie B]

Time than I expected to get delivered. However, gentlemen, in that box, I'm going to show you how you can up your styling game over the age of 60.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh. Back to the car. Oh, okay. Now we're back to the original intro.

[Brian Green]

Why do we have two intros on this video? We are so lucky. So lucky.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Him working out, him playing golf. Beautiful woman.

[Brian Green]

Beautiful woman. Big boobs. Doing his skincare routine. What do they call that? Paris.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Paris.

[Brian Green]

Sailing y.

[Frankie B]

So I'm excited, and I'm actually excited for all of you to see what my new styling tip is for men in their 60s. Yes.

[Brian Green]

Wait, you're excited to. There's a styling tip inside that box? They send them via boxes now. The styling tips, first of all. Second of all, Frankie, where'd your personality go? What's going on? He's usually all hyped up and hipped up. I know it's early in the day. Maybe he has.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, maybe it's a morning shoot.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, he hasn't done any bumps yet.

[Frankie B]

It is most definitely shoes. And why choose?

[Brian Green]

Choose. I got chews.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Do you have chews? Do you choose? Your choose in the morning does not

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

look like the same box he picked up. That was a small box.

[Brian Green]

That box was tiny. And this box is big. It's my magic box.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

It's literally a dick that grows in a box. Dick in a box.

[Frankie B]

Because the first thing that everybody notices about a man, a well dressed man, is his shoes.

[Brian Green]

Nope, nope. Not right. Not correct. Frankie, you missed the mark on that one. Not right. I'm sure it's one of the things that get noticed, but we tend to go head down when we're looking at people, when we're looking at new people, new faces. When I were sizing them up. It's a scientific fact. You go head down and guys stop at the tits. Girls may go down to the shoes. But that's, that's the. That's human nature in general. We don't look at our shoes first.

[Frankie B]

I don't care what anybody tells you. If you got sharp shoes on, that's the number one thing that people look at.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

So today, let's see these shoes.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Look at my Nike

[Frankie B]

purchase or I received my Hermes. Now, these are her men's.

[Brian Green]

Her men's? Did he say her men's? No. Let's go back.

[Frankie B]

I purchased or I received my Hermes. Now.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

Her men's.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

He said her men's. Is that true? Oh, my God.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

He purchased or received.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Oh, my God. Frankie B. I mean, Sean says who's hot? Who?

[Brian Green]

Not Frankie B. On the block.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Oh, no.

[Brian Green]

He says short. South Georgia Sean. What's up, South Georgia Sean? He's in the chat. I see Jenny there too. Hey, Jenny.

[Frankie B]

These are gym shoes. These are gym shoes.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Oh, they make gym shoes.

[Brian Green]

Her men's. Maybe it's a different brand. Maybe we're not. Maybe it's not Hermes.

[Frankie B]

Yeah, the gym. I have no interest. These gym shoes in this box are a fashion statement.

[Audience Member or Interjection]

All right?

[Frankie B]

You wear these with nice slacks, nice shirt. I'm going to show you how these could look shortly here. But I, I want to talk about.

[Brian Green]

Is he doing a whole video. Video video on his. His airmens?

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Are we really? Frankie?

[Brian Green]

This is gonna be good.

[Frankie B]

Brand name in. In wearing brand name shoes versus the, you know, the everyday shoes. Now obviously, these shoes that I'm gonna show you, these are just.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Look at him shaking his head. These shoes and I.

[Brian Green]

You are basically pussy in a box.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Okay? Make no mistake about it. First thing I do is I. I walk in and I show my shoes. I walk in feet first, I show my shoes and I say, hey, ladies,

[Brian Green]

you like the shoes?

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Check out my.

[Frankie B]

Let's go, Frankie V of $1300. Okay.

[Brian Green]

Holy shit there, Hermes. Holy 1300 fucking dollars on a pair of shoes.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Didn't he say they're gym shoes?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, he's going to wear them at the fucking gym. I object on principle alone. I object on principle alone. This is ridiculous, Frankie. You telling men they got to be buy $1,300 shoes in order to be in the same rarefied area as you? What? Salon suites cannot be paying that good. It just cannot. To my knowledge, you only have two locations. Two. And they're paying you 50 bucks a week or something. There's no way.

[Frankie B]

Well, I'm gonna tell you something right now. My fiance, she found these.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Oh, fiance.

[Brian Green]

Beyonce.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Breaky news.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

What? Get ass. I get ass.

[Frankie B]

Woo.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

For Frankie.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Beyonce.

[Brian Green]

Oh my God, Frankie, I'm so excited for you.

[Audience Member or Interjection]

Best to you. Best to you. Best to you. Best to you.

[Brian Green]

Good job, Frankie.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Wow, he locked one.

[Brian Green]

Look at that. All these years, all that drama with the divorce and the cheating and the girlfriend and the young girl who was out there clubbing it up with other people and all that stuff. Seven years later, you finally locked it down. It's. I imagine she's the one who bought the shoes for you, because I can't imagine. And it seems like Frankie's moved down to Florida. For those of you listening, it appears that Frankie has moved down to Florida. This may be part of the reason we have not seen videos lately.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Florida or another tropical place.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, tropical place. It's got to be Florida. I mean, he lived in Chicago. That's where Chicago people go. They go to Florida. They don't know anything else.

[Frankie B]

Ebay. She found them for 350 bucks.

[Brian Green]

Now, okay, I wouldn't. I just would have left that part out.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Frankie, why are you saying that?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

She found them on eBay. 350.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

See my Rolex watch? Paid 30 bucks for it. Fifth in Broadway. That's not what you say.

[Brian Green]

You don't say that.

[Frankie B]

A lot of you are looking at me right now going, man, you're. You're crazy. Who's going to spend 350 bucks on gym shoes? Well, I am. Okay? And will I.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Your fiance did.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Your fiance did.

[Frankie B]

Thirteen hundred dollars on gym shoes? Absolutely. Because it is a fashion statement.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

You would have paid full Price.

[Brian Green]

I think he said passion statement. It's a passion statement.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

They're her men.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

They're her men. Who doesn't want some?

[Brian Green]

Her men's. God bless her man.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

You just gotta know. That's not the way you say it. No, I guess not.

[Brian Green]

Unless we are missing something here and there's some kind of colloquial, like men. When men buy Hermes, they say Hermes. Right. And so I'm gonna Google that while we said Hermes. He said her mens.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

The way it's spelled.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Her mens.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

All right, let's take a quick break. We'll leave it there. We'll take a quick break. I'll Google it. I'll see if I can find anything about Hermens Herrmann's.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Herman's.

[Brian Green]

Herrmanns. Herman's, Herman's. I'll see if I can find anything about Herman's. Because Herman's and Hermes are two different things. I think my grandpa used to shop at Herman's.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

The Hermes GLP ones.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, Herman's GOP ones. Why, Brian 3000. All right. And you know the lady moisturizing gel. I don't forget what they call that. But the stuff you put in there, and you're. You're wet and ready to go. I'll be right back. We'll be right back. All three of us.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

Yeah.

[Audience Member or Interjection]

Best to you. Best to you. Best to you. Best to you.

[Brian Green]

Okay, I see Something about a guy named Joe Hermenz. Hermans. Hermans. Who was a runner. Oh, so maybe Hermes worked for Nike. He worked for Nike.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Did he charge $1,300 for his shoes?

[Brian Green]

I can't imagine.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Because that box looks like Hermes.

[Brian Green]

It does. It's the exact same color as Hermes. Did they really sell? I guess they do. I mean, now all these brands sell everything, right?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Brian Green]

Hermes. Hold on just one second. Let me get to the bottom of this. They're verifying my device. They're in Paris set. My cookies refuse all I like to do that I'm dangerous. Women's shoes, Men's shoes. They do sell sports shoes. Okay, like athletic shoes. What's the price for fourteen hundred dollars.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Really?

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Okay, so this is another brand?

[Brian Green]

Yes. Okay. Wow. All right, well, okay. Let's see what Frankie has to say about it.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yes. Let's get into it.

[Frankie B]

There's a lot about a man, and that's what I want to do. So, okay, in the box, I mean, right away, we start out with this.

[Brian Green]

What does.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Why is he doing this?

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Why?

[Brian Green]

This is the dumbest unboxing video ever. Okay? We've all had a pair of shoes before, Frankie. You gonna show us how to lace them up, too? Listen.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

What.

[Brian Green]

What does a pair of Hermes shoes say about sneakers? Say about a man? I'll tell you what it says about a man. You're not focused on the right shit or you have entirely too much money that you do dumb shit with.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Shoes are like cars. The second you start walking in them, they're worth less. And no one fucking cares unless you're going to the goddamn Met Gala or Cannes Film Festival. You don't. Or. Or a wedding or something like that.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

You wear a pair of nice shoes. Of course you do. I have a couple pairs of really nice shoes. None of them cost me more than $300. No, none of them are worth more than $300, let's put it that way. And I. I can't see myself wanting to spend fourteen hundred dollars on shoes.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Right.

[Brian Green]

So these are good looking. I will say that.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Let's see what he's got. And what?

[Frankie B]

The car from her men's. Okay, I'm not really sure what this is, nor do I want to read it right now.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Okay, let's start here. It comes with this card. I can't read. Let's not worry about that.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I don't really know what this does.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Ah, I don't need that. What is that? That could be a card. That's got $5,000 worth of gift certificate on it. Frankie, read it. We want to see.

[Frankie B]

But I love. I love their packaging.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

A piece of paper packaging with the shoe paper that every box, every shoe has ever come in.

[Brian Green]

I love it. It's great.

[Frankie B]

Okay. Obviously, you know, the shoes are well packed. And these are nice. These are nice bags.

[Brian Green]

Shoe bags, Frankie. That's what they're called. You can get those with $100 pair of shoes.

[Frankie B]

But good, you know, for travel. All right, let's check these out. All right, so now this is the Hermes.

[Brian Green]

Hermes. You don't. This age is silent and there is no N in it. Why are you saying Hermes gym shoe?

[Frankie B]

All right, for all of you, it's

[Brian Green]

got a big H on the side rolling down the bottom. I do have to say they're good looking shoes. I'll give them that. But white. Honestly, Frankie, 1500 dollars shoes, tax tag and title that you bought in white. In white.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I know.

[Brian Green]

I thought they were ruined within a day.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah. I thought they were going to have a design or something on them.

[Brian Green]

Those are not shoes you put in

[Frankie B]

the wash of designer brands. This is definitely one of the hottest brands out there. Okay. You could see when you take a step.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

How do you know that, Frankie?

[Brian Green]

Who's telling you about the hottest friends out there?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I guess it's Beyonce.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

I actually think I have fian. I wonder how old she is. I wonder what she looks like.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh, I know. We've got.

[Brian Green]

We gotta go through these videos.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

When we get back from our collective vacationing, we're gonna start rolling through Frankie videos. One a week till we get through them. And let's hope they keep coming because then it's just. Those are the golden days of the commercial break. I don't feel like I need to do any prep whatsoever. Just watch Frankie. I remember sometimes we were doing like three of these videos a day.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah. There were so many together, and they were so funny.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, they all were. I. I wonder myself about this particular video. I wonder. Well, now I'm not gonna say it. I'm not gonna say it. Okay. All right, let's get back to it. I think I own an Hermes shirt, actually, like a T shirt. I think if I remember correctly, it cost me like $320.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

It's expensive. It's an expensive brand.

[Brian Green]

I just saw it the other day in my drawer and I thought, wow, I spent so much money on that shirt, I probably should wear it.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

Awful. But then I felt like a douchebag wearing the shirt. The T shirt. With the Hermes logo on it. Right. I'm going to Spain. I thought, I'll bring my Hermes. That's the place I should go and bring, yeah, Hermes. But then, you know, Hermes T shirt with shorts and flip flops. I just look like a shitty American. Like I'm an influencer, about to pull out my camera.

[Frankie B]

You know the Hermes from the backside.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God. Okay, now I'm really annoyed now. This is like blues barking. It's not Hermes. There's no N in Hermes.

[Frankie B]

Have it the. The H from the front and then you also have it from the back. Okay.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Okay.

[Frankie B]

I love. I love the black stripe. A super.

[Brian Green]

He made this into an 8 minute video.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

I love the laces.

[Brian Green]

They keep the shoes on your feet. I love those.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

I love the top of the shoe and the bottom of the shoe.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

And what was the name of this video? Wasn't it like tips for men over 60? I mean, and it's just all about a shoe unboxing?

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yes. Okay, hold on.

[Brian Green]

Sean says he makes shoes out of banana leaves and bird feathers.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Nice.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Okay, Sean, if that is a true

[Brian Green]

statement, I want a pair of those. I will wear them on air, clean,

[Frankie B]

look stylish, you know, anybody with a sense of fashion, they're instantly gonna know this brand. So, guys, you know, look.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

What?

[Brian Green]

Anybody. First of all, what is the decor that's going on in the background?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I say, what is going on in the background?

[Brian Green]

What is that? Two whack off hands.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I know, it does look.

[Brian Green]

Wow, things are getting freaky at that house.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Go ahead and fuck my statue. That's my statue. Go ahead and fuck it.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, with the fake ivy and the. I don't know. And what is that big grate behind him?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I don't know.

[Brian Green]

Why is he living? Now, I want to know before I

[Frankie B]

get into showing you the outfit, a couple quick things here, man.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, that's like a air conditioning. That's. Look, the air conditioning's in there.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Why?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

What is going on?

[Brian Green]

Who puts their air conditioning on their patio and then decorates it? I mean, I guess if you have an air conditioning on your patio, maybe you do want to decorate it, but complicated.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

But not with those hands.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, not with the whack off hands. He has two statues sitting on top of a decorated air conditioner. An air conditioner that's like in a decorative box. And then the two statues on top are wooden wackoff hands.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

They're in the whack off position.

[Brian Green]

Everybody in the world knows what a whack off hand is. Make that times two. Cut it off at the wrists, make

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

it a statue, and put it on

[Brian Green]

top of your air conditioning.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Whenever you get pissed because your AC ain't working, you go outside and you fuck it.

[Brian Green]

You

[Frankie B]

style is not complicated. It's about details. It's about showing your detail. And your footwear is where it all starts. Your shoes are the first thing that people subconsciously look. And I love it.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Like, points to the camera.

[Brian Green]

I know. Yes. Subconsciously, they think about your shoes first and then your dick second.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

That's how it goes. Shoes, dick, frame.

[Brian Green]

That's how people think about you.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Anybody with a sense of style is gonna know automatically how big your dick

[Brian Green]

is based on your airmen's shoes. Herman's shoes, first of all. Second of all, Frankie is so incredibly dark skinned with this tan that the camera cannot pick up decipherable features on his face.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

No.

[Brian Green]

So it just looks like a black

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

spot on the dark.

[Brian Green]

Wow. See, I'm kind of jealous. Look at that receding hairline. Oh, I thought he had a whole hair transplant.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Remember Frankie's follicles?

[Brian Green]

Frankie's follicles. He had a whole hair transplant not but two years ago. Y. Oh, man, that's.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

We. We walked with him through that whole process.

[Brian Green]

That's right.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Didn't we? We did.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yes, we did. We did. He. He documented the whole thing. Of his hair transplant.

[Brian Green]

That's right.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I guess it didn't take.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

Hey, it's me. Frankie's follicles. I couldn't take it. I was there for about a year and I said, I don't care if I live or die. Jumping off Frankie's head. This guy's a real fucking moron. I'm now living on his whack off hand. I went from his head to his pubes and then over to the wack off hand. That's where I'm living now. Hey, tcb. Hey, Brian. I'm looking for a new head. Just saying. I mean, I'm not saying, but I'm saying if you're. If you're looking for some extra follicles, I can jump on over and help you out.

[Brian Green]

Thanks, Mr. Follicle.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

No problem in a man.

[Frankie B]

You know, it says that you take care of yourself, that you do have style, that you pay attention to detail. A clean, stylish gym shoe.

[Brian Green]

He's so impressed with himself about this video and how profound his statement, and once again, he's her men's shoes.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, he's held. He's holding the camera in his hand and it's at the wrong angle. You can't go under.

[Brian Green]

Go down under. But then I guess with that hair, you probably don't want to go top either.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Frankie's Follicle (a comedic character)]

Not a good look.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

It's terrible.

[Brian Green]

It's terrible. Listen, we all age, we get older, we look different. I don't, you know, I'm not gonna bust on him too much, but he is. This is not the best we've ever seen Frankie. No, let's put it that way. It's raw, it's real, it's sunlight. He doesn't have that manufactured lighting that he has sometimes. When we first saw Frankie, you could. You could call him a lot of things. You could say a lot of things about Frankie, but he was a handsome looking older guy. He was.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Well, he had his. Like you said, he had his lighting and his curtain and his leather jacket. Yeah. Screen in the background. Like he had his little professional bedroom setup.

[Brian Green]

He was fit. He was fresh. He looked good. Yeah. Yeah, he was. He was looking good.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

He's on island time now.

[Brian Green]

He is on island time. All right, let's. Let's take a short break. We got about five minutes of the video. We'll finish it up when we get back.

I walked in the door to grab a latte I paid $10 heard Ariana Grande but then I saw him and his big dog I felt my knees weak here came the brain fog and though I'm not gay you make me feel that way I hope it never ends my new Starbucks boyfriend. All my toes curl all the feels come my world the gold you are my shining sun we love to talk sports and swimming pools you like the patio I like the bar stools and we spill tea and we crochet the other tables might think we're gay I don't really care I hope it never ends you're my best Starbucks boyfriend. And though we're still straight you make me feel a certain way I hope it never ends my new Starbucks boyfriend and no, I'm not gay you make me feel that way I hope it never ends My new Starbucks boyfriend.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

How is the boyfriend, by the way?

[Brian Green]

He's good. I just saw him a couple hours ago. He's good. We haven't connected. Yeah, we haven't had a lot of time to see each other because of all the travel, and now I'm gonna be gone for a couple of weeks, so. But I still feel like our relationship is going strong. I don't feel like there's a rift. Yeah, we have to do long distance at this point. I'll call him every morning and, you know, which will be his afternoon and we'll have coffee together. And I told him, I said, I'll go to Starbucks in Spain and then, you know, you go to Starbucks here. And then let's get actually by this. When I'm waking up to have Starbucks in Spain, it's going to be two in the morning here. So I don't. I don't think that's going to work out, but. All right, we're back with Frankie and his Herman's shoes. Herman's. Let's see what's going on with his Herman's shoes.

[Frankie B]

This guy has his put together, however,

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

this guy is so good.

[Brian Green]

This guy.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

When you see my shoes, you're gonna go, that guy. That guy's got it all. He's top of his class. He's the best business guy I've ever seen. And he's got Herman shoes on. Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Here's the problem, Frankie. Someone compliments you on your shoes, and you go, they're Herman.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yeah, you're done.

[Poet or Song Performer]

That's it.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, you're done. You got to learn how to say it, bro. I hope this video gets to you before you make an idiot of yourself.

[Frankie B]

Shoes. They say just the opposite. Let's go inside. Let me put together. I got one in mind.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Let's go inside. I want to show you what's going on out there on the patio.

[Brian Green]

I have no idea. It's like a combination of metal and green.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

There's like a canopy type thing. There's a tv. I guess it's their little outdoor space.

[Brian Green]

I mean, this is South Florida all the way. You see this kind of shit in South Florida. There's whole companies that are dedicated toward making your patio look as gaudy as possible. But I'm not saying it's terrible. I'm saying it wouldn't be for me. But if I was renting it, maybe. But why all the metal coming out? Like, maybe it's just a canopy. Like a hurricane proof canopy. I don't know.

[Frankie B]

Good looking gym shoes can totally make your outfit. All right, gentlemen.

[Brian Green]

Oh. Oh. Okay. Here's Frankie standing in front of a mirror. Through the mirror shot. That mirror is straight out of the oval Office.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Here is straight out of the oval Office.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Gold. Ornate gold.

[Brian Green]

Ornate gold. And we can see back into the room. I mean, hey. Okay. Yeah. It looks like Frankie's doing well for himself. I. I don't know if he's Ren. I don't know what the deal is here. He's got his camera on a gimbal because

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

he's the.

[Brian Green]

He's the Francis Ford Coppola.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

Old influencers.

[Frankie B]

What do you think? All right. Today I dressed in black on black. I chose to wear my shirt outside of my pants because when you're wearing

[Brian Green]

gym shoes, I usually don't put my shirt inside of my pant. I see what he's saying. Tucked in is. Is the appropriate word for it, but okay, listen.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Not the worst outfit in the world.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

No, not. And he's got some kind of explanation about untucking when wearing gym shoes.

[Brian Green]

Okay, let's hear.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Frankie B]

Being designer gym shoes. All right. You. You can't, you know, tuck your shirt in. It has to be more of a casual style. And anybody who knows anything about style, they're gonna know her men's. They're gonna know.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

They're gonna know Herman's.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

They're not gonna know Herman's. They're not. That's the problem. Frankie, anybody? It's not her men's. It's not Herman's. That's not how you say it.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

That's crazy.

[Brian Green]

I'm just driving.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

You're driving me insane.

[Brian Green]

Frankie. I thought at first you just might have misspoke it, as sometimes we do say, but you've said it now 30 times, and it's the same thing. And listen, I don't.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

You know, I. I just think his fiance would know.

[Brian Green]

Yes. You think that somebody in his orbit would stop him from being an like, hey, dude, air mes. Yeah, air mes. Even ear mes. But not you. There's no H. And it's not Herman's. That doesn't sound. There's no N in Hermes that, you

[Frankie B]

know, you're dressing fashionably, all right? Even wearing black on black with gym shoes, it just gives you an entire different look.

[Brian Green]

You're out.

[Frankie B]

You're out for lunch.

[Brian Green]

You're out.

[Frankie B]

In an everyday lifestyle,

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

you're out.

[Brian Green]

You're.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

What do I do? What do I do? I go to lunch. You're riding your scooter around. People are looking at you, going, wow, check out those Herman shoes.

[Brian Green]

And by the way, black on black, while not a bad choice in this particular outfit situation, is the most un. Comfortable thing you could wear in South Florida. By the way, black on black wouldn't get you very far down. He did.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

He took the ponytail out.

[Frankie B]

It's a great look. You know what? You want to roll your sleeves up. Roll your sleeves up. You want to tuck it in. I mean, you can. I. I choose to wear.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

You want to tuck it in? I mean, go ahead.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Permission granted.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I mean, I would.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Yeah, permission granted, Chrissy. Go ahead, do it. It's not for me, but you can go ahead.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

A belt buckle. He's showing.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah, that's belt buckle. I got that.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

I got that from Trump.com channel.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

It's channel.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

I got that from Louis Button. Check out my Louise button.

[Brian Green]

You know, a Gucci belt.

[Frankie B]

I mean, can this look good, you know, with a Gucci belt? Absolutely.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Absolutely. You kept us in suspense there for

[Brian Green]

a second, by the way.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Which one of your followers just sitting there.

[Brian Green]

Go. Dressing along with you.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I know.

[Frankie B]

You know, it most definitely will work, but for today, I like it outside the pants.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Okay.

[Frankie B]

Style.

[Brian Green]

Welcome to style.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Anybody that knows.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Welcome to city. Hey. All right.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh, now he's gone back.

[Brian Green]

Oh, he's gone back.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

It was red tank top.

[Brian Green]

I mean look at that. It's. Listen, is that a, is that someone playing golf in the back? There's a golf statue in the background.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh, there is a golf statue.

[Brian Green]

That's a weird, that's an odd choice. There's a four foot golfing statue behind

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

him with a mid swing.

[Brian Green]

Mid swing with a full sized golf club.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Look at that.

[Brian Green]

Wow. All right.

[Frankie B]

Like the outfit.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

All right.

[Frankie B]

Just something that I threw together real quick.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

You see, Just threw it together real quick.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Took me two weeks to plan it out. I had to call her Ermans and see what they would suggest.

[Brian Green]

Did you read your card yet though, Frankie?

[Frankie B]

Is the question how those shoes can work? Now honestly, there's a lot of, a lot of men out there that first of all they're not going to spend that type of money on gym shoes. But what, what's an option? Well, I got one right here. Now these are worn. I just been back from vacation. Here's another option.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Are you ever not on vacation?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I'm just back. These have been worn.

[Brian Green]

That's what shoes are supposed to do. They're supposed to be worn. That's why it's ridiculous. Unless you're specifically going to an event where your shoes will be noticed and they should be nice and you should be wearing something appropriate. Like if you go to a business meeting and you're with a bunch of other business executives and it's high dollar deals and it's a big deal, I can see going out and spending some real money on nice shoes. Every man that you'll wear a lot, every man should have two pairs of really nice dress shoes. Brown or dark brown and black. Really nice shoes. Like go spend three or four hundred dollars on them. And then I, I probably have 30, 20, 30 pairs of shoes. I would say most of them under a hundred dollars, right?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Most 20 to 30 pairs of shoes, huh?

[Brian Green]

I do, yeah. Well, most of them sandals actually is what they are.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Flip flops, let's be honest about it.

[Brian Green]

That's why they're under $100.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I have 30 pairs of shoes. I don't think.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I do. I think I've have, I think I have 30 pairs of shoes. So I probably seven of those are sandals or flip flops in different varieties and flavors and forms. I really only wear two of them, but there's. They're there in case I need them. And then I have all different flavors of shoes. I have casual dress up, I have, have sneakers, I have whatever and I like to you know, mix and match. But I'm not spending $1,500 on a pair of shoes because I wear them. I don't just keep them in my closet. I go out and I put them on.

[Frankie B]

They're Nike. I would have preferred.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

He said they're Nike.

[Brian Green]

He said they're Nike.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh, my God. No. Did he really say that?

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

He can't be per. Mispronouncing Nike.

[Brian Green]

How is it possible for you to mispronounce like this?

[Frankie B]

Nike is, you know, the insignia over here in the black. But unfortunately, I couldn't find it. You know, guys, this is another option. You know, it's. It's more affordable. I believe these were a hundred and twenty eight dollars.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

That's pretty specific.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

That is pretty specific.

[Brian Green]

$128. How did you remember that?

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, well, Nike.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, Nike. They're my Nike shoes. Well, you know, those Nike ripoffs, they tend to be a little bit less

[Frankie B]

expensive than the Nikes when I purchased this. So it's just another option. So I. I hope you like today's styling tips for, you know, guys in their 60s. How, you know, you can wear fashionable.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

What exactly was the styling tip?

[Brian Green]

There is no styling tip. Yeah, Hermetic men's wear. Nice shoes. Okay, we get it. Don't wear, you know, disgusting shoes. Yeah, don't. But you don't have to go spend fifteen hundred dollars on it, first of all. Second of all, listen, I. You know, my Starbucks boyfriend, he's in his 60s. He's in his 60s. He dresses nice. He's got Lululemon, you know, casual clothes. He's got, you know, nice shoes. He wears a cat ball cap sometimes. He's got glasses or sunglasses. He wears nice. But I don't see him with Herman's.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

No.

[Brian Green]

Now, he drives in a very nice car. Two of them, really. But, you know, know that's where he chooses to spend his money. Yeah, but it's, it's, it's not practical to put 1500 shoes on in a casual setting. It's just not practical to go about your life. Yeah, just to go about your life, your lifestyle.

[Frankie B]

Going out to a monster event and wearing gym shoes. But in your. Your everyday casual life. Going out for, you know, casual dinners. It's a nice outfit. I'm not a big believer in blue jeans. In fact, I hate blue jeans.

[Brian Green]

I think they're real, regardless of whether you believe in them or not.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, I like tank tops.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

I like red tank tops and spree

[Brian Green]

scooters on a Tuesday afternoon with my, ermine. Shoes. Sometimes I put on my Nikes, but mainly it's my ermines. Yeah, by the way, you. It's. You don't believe in jeans. They exist. You either like them or you don't like them. Listen, I'm starting to sour a little bit on jeans also, if I'm being honest. I think there are plenty of people who look good in them. They are. I've been going through this jean phase for about a decade now. Or I really like jeans. I like to wear them. I wear them a lot of times on the shoe. I mean, on the shoe on the show. Thinking about the shoes on the show. But I've made the decision that I don't. I can't really find a pair of jeans that I think are stylish in 2026 that look good on my particular body style, which is flat and like this, like two tubes just coming. So I like slacks because I think they're just better fitting. And so I think that's the direction I'm going to head. I'm just letting everybody know that. Big announcement here on the show.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Styling tip, Styling tip.

[Brian Green]

Styling tip. A styling tip for you, like, you

[Frankie B]

know, to wear dress pants. And I think this is a great option, one that you should most definitely explore. All right, guys, if you did enjoy the video, I asked that you.

[Brian Green]

I can't imagine how you would enjoy the video unless you were making fun of it like we are.

[Frankie B]

Hit that, like, button and subscribe to my channel. For all guys in their 60s who want to up their game, look and feel better about themselves in grooming, fitness, fashion, and most definitely, lifestyle.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Lifestyle. There it is. We've been waiting for it all video. He pulled it in in the end.

[Brian Green]

He gave us. He gave us the greatest hits that we were looking for. We got the original OG intro as

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

well as an additional.

[Brian Green]

An additional intro. We got two intros. The first four and a half minutes of this five minute video were the intro. Then we got an unboxing video that made very little to no sense. And then he did his greatest hit,

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

which is lifestyle, fatness, fitness, fashion and fun.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh, Frank, it's good to see you.

[Brian Green]

Oh, Frankie, I love you.

[Frankie B]

See all of you in the next video.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

His face.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

His encore was incredible. Let's go back and see the encore.

[Frankie B]

I'm Frank Bernardo. I'll see all of you in the next video.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

It's like he was gonna throw up.

[Brian Green]

He's like, look at those eyes. I don't think they can close. I think the Botox has got Them. Actually, it's the problem with Botox all the time around the eyes and the eyelids or how whatever you're doing, the eyelid lift or whatever it is, the problem is your eyes really start to sink in the back of your head. And if you look at him, right, look at those beady little eyes just coming out of those huge sockets.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

He's having a hard time closing his

[Brian Green]

eyes like a natural human being. Listen, I love it. I love it. I love everything about Frankie. I could do this all day long.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

I missed him.

[Frankie B]

I did.

[Brian Green]

You know, it's like an old friend. You want to see what they're up to, you want to hang out with them, you know? You know who I probably need to catch up with? And I was thinking about this is I probably need to catch up with or get. Get a story from Marlon.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

You know, that is so funny. You said that I was gonna ask you yesterday about him, and I couldn't remember his name, but I was thinking the exact same thing.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Have you.

[Brian Green]

No. It's been years.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

We had that whole string of stories that was going along there for a while. Then it kind of came to an abrupt end. And my belief was that she started to become aware. Like, the person that he was dating started to become aware that there was, like, this was happening. And I don't. I don't know, but I'd like to get an update from him. So I should text him. Yeah. I just feel bad because, you know, I took his whole life and put it out there on the commercial break.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

But you gave him a marlin name.

[Brian Green]

I gave him Marlon. Yeah. Nowhere close to his real name. But, you know, maybe it's time to do a little check in, see how he is. We're going to do a Mountain Monsters when we return. I've got one in the can for you. We're going to ease back in the first half of the year. I mean, just be honest about it. First half of the year has been a little rough for the commercial break with the production schedule. And that's not because we don't love you. We do love you. But there have been changes inside and outside of the room that we're trying to accommodate all on all fronts. And that's that reasons that we don't need to get into those are between Chrissy and I. But just know sounded funny. Did.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Between Chrissy and I.

[Brian Green]

It's between Chrissy and I.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Okay.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

It's our lifestyle.

[Brian Green]

It's our lifestyle. Our lifestyle is the problem. I've had a Pretty raging cocaine issue.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

You dip back, Chris.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Chrissy and Jeff opened up their own sex dungeon.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, yeah. We're side hustling.

[Brian Green]

Yes. Jeff is dressed up like a dog, and Chrissy's leading him around the house. They're into some stuff. Okay. Yeah, listen, the commercial break doesn't pay all the bills. You got to get out there and do some other stuff.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

We're doing the best we can.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

Or everyone's doing the best they can. We're all trying and.

[Brian Green]

Hey, Frankie, keep them coming, baby. We love you. You know we're here for you. It's like I said yesterday on the show with Allison. I said, there, there. There was a moment there, and I almost remember it. The funny thing is, if I go back and I listen to a Frankie B episode that we did, I can almost remember word for word, every single punchline. That's how point. I mean, honestly, most episodes are like that. For some reason, they get stuck in my mind. But I can almost remember the moment that I started to go from really thinking Frankie was just a big fucking dum dum into, like, having some kind of appreciation for him. Yeah. And I think that's when I realized

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

he's got a place in our hearts.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. He was doing 50% of our content for us.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]

I think that's when I started falling off with Frankie.

[Brian Green]

All right, well, listen, if you. Like I said, those are listening on the RSS Feedback, we will be back next week with live shows. If you're streaming this right now for the next couple of weeks, we're going to be off. You're going to be hearing these episodes that have been streaming, rolling out over the next couple of weeks, and then we'll be back in action in early June. But we love you and want everyone to have a nice Memorial Day. Be safe. Get your ermine shoes on and get your ermines and your Nikes and have a fun lifestyle. Put them with black on black on Memorial Day weekend and sweat through all of your clothing. We want you to have fun, fitness, fashion, fun, and lifestyle. So what else can I say that

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

that was just such a great Friday.

[Brian Green]

It's a palate cleanser. It's good palate cleanse. For all the craziness coming up over the next couple of weeks for all of us, there was something else that I wanted to say, but now I can't remember. Nope. Nothing. Not coming to me. Not word. Not a word.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Thanks for everybody that joined us in the streaming.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, thanks for everybody joining us in the streaming. Yeah. There's been a lot of people in and out of the stream this week. Thanks for hanging in there. When we were on with Allison, Allison made it five hours of her seven hours.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Oh, okay.

[Brian Green]

Still pretty good. Yeah, still pretty good to talk five hours straight. See, the thing is, is I think Allison, you know, I think that imitation. Is this a serious form of flattery? I think Allison too took our idea and thought I could do that.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

And I can appreciate that. But what Allison didn't realize, what everybody else who may have listened realized, is that we actually didn't go 12 hours in a row.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

No.

[Brian Green]

We took breaks for like 30 and 40 minutes at a time over the course of that day. Talking for five straight hours. That's got to be difficult.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

It's got to.

[Brian Green]

It's got to.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah. Five straight.

[Brian Green]

Five straight.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

Yeah. Because we had stuff that in the can that we would put out.

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Chris Joy Hoadley]

So we did 12, we aired 12

[Brian Green]

continuous hours, the interviews that we did. We entered. We went live show interview, live show interview, live show interview. And we did that 13 times actually. So we ended up doing seven hours, seven episodes that day, which was good. Remember, I think we tried to like, didn't we, didn't we try and do a video there too? Yeah, yeah. All right. Anyway, okay.

[Co-host (possibly Jeff or another friend)]
