It is no secret to anyone in the TCB universe that Brian spends an insane amount of time here in the studio working on the show, doing content research, or just generally avoiding responsibilities. That means each week I have more than a few late nights. But with my schedule, there is no such thing as a late morning. They're all early. Late nights lead to early mornings lead to the afternoon slump. That's when I reach for a 5 hour energy. Got them right here in the studio and it gives me that burst of motivation that I need to push through the afternoon. Go to Five Hour Energy's website to find over 15 flavors to choose from from flavors like Watermelon, Tropical Burst, Blue, Raspberry, Peach, Mango and more. There is a flavor for everyone.

On this episode of the commercial break. What? This sounds really complicated for a mythological dum dum creature. Like for a walking ape, really.
Chris Hoadley
The trap is set. The thunder axe is in security box. Now we have to back off and let the lightning man do his part.
Brian Greene
All right.
Chris Hoadley
As much as I hate to do this.
Darlene Stinkhand
Fall into the trap.
Brian Greene
Yeah.
Chris Hoadley
Leave that thunder axe here. We have to back out. Yeah, we have to.
Brian Greene
Much as I hate to do this, we gotta let Thunderman stick his hot loins in there. And then when he does, he will jizz lightning and we will all become all powerful. All mythological creatures will bow to our will. We have the thunder axe. The next episode of the commercial break starts now. Ah, yeah. Cats and kittens, welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Greene. This is my dear friend and the co host of this show, Chris and Joy Hoadley. Best to you, Chris.
Darlene Stinkhand
Best to you, Brian, and best to.
Brian Greene
You out there in the podcast universe. And happy day after the spring equinox.
Darlene Stinkhand
Ooh, the vernal.
Brian Greene
The vernal. The venereal equinox, as I like to call it. It's when my syphilis flares up every year around this large robot. I got a large robot penis. Oh, yes, the spring equinox. When the. Technically, when the sun rays are directly over the equator and then it moves to the. Then it moves to start shining on the northern hemisphere just a little bit more than it has before. That's why it's 31 degrees in Atlanta. Welcome to spring.
Darlene Stinkhand
I know. It's been like 75.
Brian Greene
Oh, God, let it go. I know. We don't talk about the. This is like a weather related show at this point. That's all we talk about, is how miserable we are about the weather. It's too hot, it's too cold, the pollen's out, the sun is out. I don't know, but one of my kids was very excited about the spring equinox. He was like, it's the first day of spring, dad. And I was like, yeah, I'm still wiping your ass. What's going on there? Okay, maybe this is the first day of not wiping your ass. How's that? Because the older you get, the more manly your shit gets, the more I get disgusted. The other day, I had to call Astrid. I was like, astrid, I need your help on this one. I cannot deal with the smell. It is a man smell. Yes. Meanwhile, all 13 children are still visiting me in the morning in my. In the tiny little, you know, cabinet that I had. Yeah, the water closet or whatever you call it. They're all come in, they file in, they talk to me, and I'm just like half asleep. I'm like, okay, guys, can I have a moment alone? Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy. They don't have noses. I don't think. I don't think smelling starts until you're like, 20. I'm not sure what's going on there. It's awful. It's terrible. And I remember my father. I mean, we all remember our father's ass. Am I right or am I right? I don't. You don't?
Darlene Stinkhand
No.
Brian Greene
You don't remember your father's ass? I mean, not like you. You know what I'm saying? The smell of his ass, not his actual ass.
Darlene Stinkhand
No, the door was shut and I knew I didn't want to go in there.
Brian Greene
The door was shut, but that doesn't mean I wasn't able to smell my father's shit. I mean, for God's sakes, my mom was always sneaking around the house, I think, pooping when people weren't there. Yeah, she was of that ilk where a lady never let her smell be known.
Darlene Stinkhand
Right there is that smell.
Brian Greene
Thy lady shall never let thy poop be. That shall keep her asshole clean. And tidy. But my dad. You know, you gotta talk to your dad sometimes. And sometimes when you had a father that was very busy, like mine, traveling a lot, you know, sometimes. Sometimes dad would call us when he had a water closet, too. His doors always closed, but it was in this larger bathroom. And sometimes in the morning, Brian, I'd be like, oh, no, no. Dun, dun, dun, dun. I can hear you from here, dad. It's good. I'm cool. Get in there. No, because that shit would burn the nose hairs right off you. I mean, my dad's a hardy guy from Chicago. He's not some, you know, diminutive little flower eater. That's not what he does. He doesn't eat roses for breakfast. He has, like, bacon, eggs, pot roast. I don't know what they eat in Chicago, you know, whatever they were eating. But he's a meat eater. And so. But the other day, my son, he can. One of my sons, he can wipe his own ass.
Chris Hoadley
That. That.
Brian Greene
He can do that. Yeah, but sometimes you like to go in there for the double check. You know what I'm saying? You gotta go in there for the double check. I don't think I learned how to properly wipe my ass while I was, like, 14 years old. And then maybe even not then. Like, it's a complicated procedure, and you gotta get it right. And it takes a long time to get to know your ass. I mean, I'm just speaking truthfully here. Sorry if I'm disturbing your breakfast. But then, you know, daddy, I'm done. You know, I'm like, okay, let me come. And I just walked in and walked right out. And I'm like, oh, no, no, no, no, Astrid. He's like, what? And I'm like, nothing. Don't worry about it. You're all good. It's all human. It's all there. One of my kids came in the other day. I picked him up from school, and he was telling me about his day, and he says, during a movie. We were watching a movie today, and during the movie, I had to fart. And he goes, so I farted. It was really loud. And I go, oh. I was kind of laughing about it, you know, like, oh, that's a little embarrassing, but everybody farts. You can't hold it in. You're going to ruin your stomach if you hold it in. You know, just say, excuse me, you know, when you're done. And I go, did all the kids go, ew? And he goes, no, only two of my friends. And I go, well, why did they go, ew? And he goes, because they really don't like my farts. And I was like, well, who does the other part of the class? Is it the other part of the class that does? I'm not sure. I don't know how that works. It's been a long time since I've been at school.
Darlene Stinkhand
Well, speaking of, though, I was wondering, when you said you went to go pick him up, have you encountered any blowback or anything from the, from the tail of you and the construction workers or the people?
Brian Greene
Oh, that was a different school. So there's. So we have so many kids that they all go to different schools. They're all in different grades and different schools have different grades and all this. No, actually, when I went to the school. Well, you know, and, and I know now that at all the places that I go, the cat's just out of the bag. And, and certainly at Starbucks, the cat is way out of the bag. Because for the first time in 10 years, nine years of going there, someone said something to me directly. They asked me directly if I was in fact that guy from the commercial break. And I wanted to crawl. I wanted to die inside of a hole. I was like, ah, this is the one place where no. One place. Yeah, I mean the one. I mean anywhere else in the world besides the places that I know people that you're not going to know about the commercial break. But the place that I go to. Eventually, curiosity kills the cat and they, they're trying to figure out what does that guy do. But no one has ever asked me directly, what do you do? So anyway, so everybody at this school where this tree incident happened, these tree guys. Incidents happened.
Darlene Stinkhand
The tree incident, it was an incident.
Brian Greene
It was an incident and it felt aggressive and scary and especially when you have kid and, you know, children in the back of the car. And these guys were just young and dumb and full of stupid energy. And again, we probably all could have handled it a little bit better, but in the moment I just wanted to go, like, I just wanted to get out of the. I wanted to get out of the energy because, you know, in this day and age, you never know how quickly that energy can turn in, into like violence. It's just people are so on edge. All of us. I'm not saying that that's everybody else and not me. Me too. Everybody's so on edge and we see so much crazy shit happening that at any given moment the things can just snap and you don't. And then you can't take it back. But anyway, so I go the principal of the school, you know, the way that the cars line up, she comes by and she clicks a button to say, okay, these kids need to be brought out so that they can be picked up or whatever. And we're friendly. And so she's. We're talking, and I. And I said, oh, the tree guys aren't here today. And she goes, oh, those tree guys, they were awful. And I go, oh, really? Did you see what happened to me? Cause I assume she did, because it was that everyone is yelling and screaming, and it's not very far away from where all the other parents and teachers were standing. And she goes, no, what happened? So I tell her the story, and she's like, oh, my gosh, those guys were awful. They. They wouldn't stop doing the trees while the keys were outside and the wood chips are going everywhere and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And she's like. And I had to ask them multiple times, and they still didn't listen to me. I am filing a complaint for them. And now I'm going to file a complaint on this, too, because this is ridiculous. I'm going to talk to them.
Darlene Stinkhand
And I said, coordination on whoever did.
Brian Greene
That, like, straight out of a movie, I swear to God. This happens next, there's like two parking lots, one that you drive through, and then as you're driving to get to the front of the school, there's another side parking lot for a forest preserve, which is what I think they were cutting the trees down for the forest preserve. But it's this tiny little forest preserve. But there's a parking lot there, small parking lot. And so I'm sitting there waiting to go and talking to her, and out of the side of my eye, I see a big truck pull up to park right in. Like, the car is facing the side of my car now, my passenger side in that extra parking lot. And guess who pulls up. The tree company. The tree company with the tree guys. Now, only one of the guys of the two guys that was involved in the incident, and the less aggressive. I'd say the less aggressive one, they were both pretty fucking aggressive. But the less aggressive one is there, and it appears they're there with a supervisor, because they're walking around and the supervisor is, like, pointing out these things or whatever, you know, you can tell he's just kind of like, directing the charge. I don't think they noticed me. But I'll tell you what, it was crazy because as we were talking about it, they pulled up and I was like, oh, my God, here we Go again. But luckily, nothing. Nothing happened. And it was just like. The whole thing was just so stupid. Come on, guys. What are you doing? Throwing cones at cars with kids in it and, you know, yelling and screaming and not paying attention. Just. Come on. The whole world is fucking on fire right now. And it just. It really. You can really sense the stress out there when you're driving. Everyone's driving aggressively. When you're at a place, you're just looking for the person that's going to pop, and someone's inevitably ready to pop. People are yelling at each other. It's just all so much, like, rev down, chill out. I know the world's on fire and everything's broken, broken. And it's getting more broken by the day. I get that. But. But we're gonna. Some of us are gonna survive. We're gonna. I guess. I don't know. Some of us are gonna survive. It's gonna be okay. I don't know. I don't know how, I don't know when, I don't know where, but some normalcy will return. It always does. And we're just having a little bit of an upheaval right now, but we can't kill each other. That's what they want us to do. They want us to be at each other's throats, because then we're distracted and they can do. They. Then they can plunder. They can plunder while we're distracted fighting with each other over fucking cones in a parking lot. Honestly, it's so fucking ridiculous. So I go to Starbucks the other day, so. Let me finish the Starbucks story. So I go to Starbucks the other day, and I told you that I had suspected that one of the girls had figured it out. I put two and two together. Just some things that she said to me indicated to me that she, in fact, knew that I had the podcast, and she knew which podcast it was, but she didn't go directly at it. She didn't tell me that directly. And so I thought to myself, okay, well, she's gonna keep my secret here at least. And I know, and I. And I like this girl. Like, I know she. She doesn't seem like the talker in the group, so I think, okay, all right, well, my secret's safe with her. Like, we don't. And she's not gonna be asking me every day. She's probably definitely not listening to the show. At least I don't imagine she is. She. She's young and has a life, and she doesn't have time for all this. But then there's a new guy there, and the new guy the other day, he's like, I'm checking out, and he already knows me. He's already saying, hi, Brian and all that. He already knows my drink. He's only been there for, like, three weeks, but he's on. He's on the ball. Yeah, I like this kid. He's going to fit right in. So he's going to go far in this Starbucks. He's going to go far in Starbucks. Making my coffee before I even walk in the door. I like this kid. He's a winner. I can pick one that goes the distance. He's going to go the distance. So he says, yeah, man, what do you. So what do you do? You're like, you got. You know, you work from home. And I go, yeah, yeah, I work from home. And he goes, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think. I think I know what you do. And I was like, you do? And he goes, I think, what do you do?
Darlene Stinkhand
And I go, tell me what you think I do.
Brian Greene
Yeah, well, that's what I said. I go, well, why don't you go first, and then I'll confirm or deny based on it. And he goes, well, there's a little rumor going around that you have a podcast, and it's called, like, the commercial break or something like that. And I go, oh, okay. And he goes, is that what you do? Is that true? And I go, listen, come here, you little fuck.
Darlene Stinkhand
Lean in close.
Brian Greene
I don't want anyone knowing exactly what I do. It's a family thing. Okay, you got it. Don't tell anybody. Don't tell anybody. I actually says this to him. I go, hey, listen. I go, yes. Okay. The truth is, yes. It took me like 30 seconds to say yes. Cause I was like, I don't know what to do here. I really don't want this secret out. But he's already got my number. I can't say no. And then all he has to do is look up the fucking picture on the goddamn front of the podcast page. So I go, listen. Yes, but honestly, I kind of like coming to Starbucks where I think that nobody knows what I do. Not because I'm famous or anything like that, but because it's a little safe harbor from some of the stupid shit I might say on the fucking podcast. I don't want to have to answer, you know, I don't want to answer every question about every fucking thing that I say. I am one of these guys. This is why I do a podcast and not stand up Comedy, first of all, not funny. Second of all, could never just travel like that. I have too many kids to. My wife would never let that happen. But third of all, I don't like the instant reaction about what I'm saying. I'd much prefer just go out there and you guys have a reaction in your own personal private space and I'll have my own reaction here, you know what I'm saying? And so I don't like the idea of having to answer for everything that I say.
Darlene Stinkhand
Yeah.
Brian Greene
On the show this morning, like where.
Darlene Stinkhand
People are following up, up with you on some of the things.
Brian Greene
So you said this about Ariana Grande, but that's actually not true. Okay, right. If I opened my mouth, it's probably not true. So let's, let's just get, let's get that point across. Yeah.
Darlene Stinkhand
You don't want fact checking going on.
Brian Greene
No, we tried that. It didn't work. That didn't work very well. We tried a fact checker. They checked too many facts. They were too aggressively checking my facts. I didn't care for that. So, yes, cat's out of the bag at the Starbucks. What are you gonna. And what are you gonna do? And it's spring equinox, so we're all just, you know, muddling through. I guess that's what happens. And then I read there are some things, believe it or not, that I agree with, with this current administration. And one of the things that at least was like tweeted about or twitted or twatted or truthed or whatever the fuck is going on, X, I don't know, is that let's get rid of this time clock changing thing. And I couldn't be more in agreement with that sentiment, however, that is until I learned that our good friend Donald Trump doesn't want us to have more sunlight. He wants us to have less sunlight. He thinks the clock should stay backwards and not forward.
Darlene Stinkhand
Which is the original time.
Brian Greene
Which is the original time.
Darlene Stinkhand
Yeah, but, but most people like it, right?
Brian Greene
Yes.
Darlene Stinkhand
More sunlight at night.
Brian Greene
Don't you want to be at the lake at 7:30, 8:00 at night with an extra hour of sunlight left? Or at the ocean or whatever it is you do, wherever it is you do. I spent time in Costa Rica close to the equator. In case you're checking a map, geographically, it's a little closer than I am right now. I spent time in Costa rica and it's 12 on, 12 off. No matter the time of year almost. You know, there's little changes, but it's much closer to, you know, even Stevens, if you know what I mean.
Darlene Stinkhand
I like that.
Brian Greene
12 on, 12 off. You think you like it, but the sun comes up at like 5:30 and 6 in the morning, and then it goes down at 5:30, 6 at night. I don't like that. I don't want the sun to go down at 5:30, 6 at night. Besides, putting my kids to bed. There is no downside, in my opinion, to having it be light out at 8:00 at night. It just. And I know that then it stays a little darker a little longer, and it's dangerous for the kids in the bus. I don't care about the kids with the bus. I want to have an ice cream in an outdoor mall when it's light outside.
Darlene Stinkhand
Okay, I think most people agree with that, or at least the people I've.
Brian Greene
Talked to, sane people agree with that. But insane people want to give us less sunlight. They want to give us More sunlight at 3 in the morning when no one's fucking awake. And then everyone has to wake up earlier because the fucking chickens and all that bullshit. And then we don't get that sunlight at the end of the day. Can't you give us a fucking break?
Darlene Stinkhand
Yeah, again, I don't feel like it's a big deal too, because, you know, even though it's darker longer in the mornings, if it's warm outside. What that doesn't. Then now, if it's cold, it's freezing.
Brian Greene
If it's freezing cold, oh, and dark in the morning.
Darlene Stinkhand
But that's not the case.
Brian Greene
I get it. But listen, going to work in school is never gonna be less miserable. Do you know what I'm saying? It's not gonna be less miserable because the sun is out. That's not gonna happen. You might be a few degrees warmer on those rare circumstances where, you know, the sun comes up and warms it up enough for you to feel it. But let's admit it, it's not like the sun pops up and all of a sudden it's 72 degrees in the middle of January. It's not how it works, first of all. Second of all, you're never gonna like going to work or school. Never gonna happen. So it doesn't matter. Let's at least. This is what I'm trying to say to you all you people who might agree with the clocks backwards. If we're gonna have extra sunlight, let it be during the times when we're not supposed to be at work.
Darlene Stinkhand
We're done.
Brian Greene
That's right. Yes. When I was working 9 to 5, which was for about a year of my life. When I was working nine to five, there's nothing, nothing in the world that I loved more than to hit the whistle. You know, everybody's working for the weekend, the 5 o'clock whistle, hit it, quit it. And go find a patio and sit there for a couple of hours with the sun shining on my face and drinking myself into oblivion. Because that's what Americans do, because we're all fucking miserable. Okay, got it. So let's all get on the same page about this one. And I understand that Mr. Trump is easily persuadable in certain situations, and I think we should all twat at him or X to him. I don't even know what we do anymore. Truth him, Truthy social or whatever it is. Is that even still a thing? Truth social, yeah. Oh, okay.
Darlene Stinkhand
That's what he puts all his messages out on.
Brian Greene
Yeah, that's what he puts all, you know, that's where he takes all the money under the, under the, under the table. Let us all agree and hit him up and let him know that the way we actually want it is things to go forward, not backward. Because it just doesn't make any sense. It makes no logical sense why you would want less sunlight at the end of the day when you're not working or at school. Let the kids have an extra hour of sunlight to play around. Let me have an extra hour of sunlight, because that's just what I like. I don't even have working. We don't even have working hours here. But if we did, we'd want extra sunlight. And then the regular, you know, everybody else who works 9 to 5 or whatever it is, let them have an extra hour of sunlight too. And let us not forget about the people who work the overnight shifts. You know, if we're worried about the kids going to school without sunshine, standing out in the bus waiting for the bus without sunshine. What about the dancers, the strippers that have to go to work at 8:00 at night? Are we not concerned about their safety also?
Darlene Stinkhand
That's right.
Brian Greene
We don't want them going to work in the dark.
Darlene Stinkhand
See, Brian's always thinking on a bus as well.
Brian Greene
That's right. The short order cooks at Waffle House, the police officers, everyone who works that overnight shift starts at 8:00 at night. And we don't want them to be unsafe either. So, you know, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. That's right. We learned about that in here. At the school of hard knocks. In the commercial break I have. It's Friday. I'm feeling a little squirrely. So I've decided to do something fantastic for the audience here. And this may be a two parter we'll have to see. I pulled down the five scariest mountain monsters chases in mountain monster history. It's a compilation video. I wish I could tell you to go watch it on YouTube, but it's 95% likely it's going to get banned by Travel Channel or who, Discovery. H plus minus Max or whoever owns it. But we'll do our best. We'll do our best to get it up there. So why don't we do this? I know it's a little bit of a short segment. Let's take a break and when we get back, we're gonna get right into it with some of our, some of our favorite guys.
Darlene Stinkhand
Huck, Buck, Chuck, everybody.
Brian Greene
Huckleberry number four or five or whatever. They're on. Let's, let's take a break. When we get back, we'll do some mountain monsters for you. What do you think?
Darlene Stinkhand
I like it.
Brian Greene
We'll be back. Hey, it's Rachel, your new voice of God here on tcb. And just like you, I'm wondering just how much longer this podcast can continue.

And then we'll return to this episode of the Commercial Break. This episode is sponsored in part by chime checking. A few years ago, I was doing my end of the year book and I got white hot when I realized that I had spent hundreds of dollars in banking and overdraft fees. On one of our checking accounts, an unexpected monthly bill comes through a check that's been sitting out there for a while and wha bam. 35, 45, sometimes even $50. No thank you. That stuff adds up over time, but when you open a Chime Checking account, you can be one step closer to a better financial future because with no maintenance fees, fee free overdraft of up to $200, or you can get paid up to two days early with direct deposit.

Darlene Stinkhand
Yes, it has.
Brian Greene
I don't know. Months at least. Probably. We probably haven't done any in 2020. Maybe we did one for the 12 days of TCB.
Darlene Stinkhand
We had to.
Brian Greene
I think so. And we'll probably do one for the 12 hours of TCB. Stay tuned. Okay. All right, so I'm just gonna drop little hints here and there, but I think this one is coming together. I think this one we're definitely doing well. We have to now because we have people that are obligated to. We're obligated to have other obligations to have people do it. But anyway, 12 hours of TCB. Think. Chew on that one. And we'll give you more details in April. But Mountain Monsters, some of our favorite. This is one of my favorite comedy shows of all time, if I'm being real honest. The Mountain Monsters are a hilarious group of redneckersons that are out there chasing all kinds of monsters, from the Whisper Wolves to the Paw Paw Poppers. Yes. Skinny John Popper. They're chasing everybody, chasing these mythological creatures through West Kentucky, it seems like. And they made a compilation of the top five mountain monster chases or hunts, quote, unquote.
Darlene Stinkhand
Hunt hunts. I love it because it started Off. I mean, what was the premise that it originally started off as, like, chasing Bigfoot?
Brian Greene
Yeah, we've been here for four hours, haven't recorded a fucking thing. My mouth's not working anymore. I mean, honestly, we've been here diddling around. Some days it all comes together, and some days it doesn't. It's that sun over the equator. It's making my brain fry. It's the thought of having less sunlight that's driving me crazy. It really is.
Darlene Stinkhand
Okay, so Bigfoot, it started off with that and then just. It's now anything.
Brian Greene
Yeah, it's now anything and everything and all kinds of made up shit and, you know, killing bastards and everything. But Huck, Chuck fucking Ron are back at it. The guy who yells too much.
Darlene Stinkhand
Bill.
Brian Greene
Bill.
Darlene Stinkhand
Yeah.
Brian Greene
Yeah, it's Bill. Yeah, it's Billy. Bill. Yeah, Bill. What did you do to that one?
Chris Hoadley
Go.
Brian Greene
God damn. All right, cool. I guess he literally does yell everything. Oh, he does. Their. Their level of excitement on the cutaways gets very intense. Okay, here we are. Let's calm down the top five and we'll get started. Now as soon as I press play.
Chris Hoadley
Number five another 50 yards and go up about. What is that?
Brian Greene
Look, look, look, look, look, look, look. It's a tree coming down. Hey, guys, I took that chainsaw and cut that tree down for you like you told me to. I. The other one down. What we're seeing right now is a drone shot of a tree falling. And these guys are getting very excited because. Does a tree make a noise when it falls in the forest? I guess we're about to find out.
Chris Hoadley
Son of a bitch.
Brian Greene
Son of a. That tree done fail that tree down.
Chris Hoadley
Holy hell. Cowboys team zooms in on that drone cowboy. Kidding.
Brian Greene
There he is.
Darlene Stinkhand
Wild Bill.
Brian Greene
That's right. Hey, we're done to smoke some meth and then everyone looking at a tree falling down, and there's a TV and a drone and all kind of shit. And my teeth are falling out. Look at those teeth. That is a picture of dental health. I'm gonna. I'm purposefully pressing pause here so I can show my children later.
Darlene Stinkhand
Right? This is what happens when you do this.
Brian Greene
That's right. They're so sc. Scared. They're so scared about that.
Darlene Stinkhand
I did the same thing with my nephews.
Brian Greene
Oh, you gotta do it. You gotta tell them all the bad things that'll happen. And you know what? They're mostly true, so at least you're not lying to them.
Chris Hoadley
Big ass tree comes crashing to the ground. Hell yes. You heard that high pitched squall. And you heard that tree knock. You know exactly what took that tree down. That was a Bigfoot.
Brian Greene
You know exactly what that was. It was me. I was doing it for fun.
Chris Hoadley
That Bigfoot that so just ripped that big ass tree down.
Brian Greene
I think he just said bigfoot is celibate. And he fucked that tree down.
Darlene Stinkhand
It did sound like he said celibate.
Brian Greene
He said Bigfoot is celibate. He fucked that tree down.
Chris Hoadley
Cowboy Ken. He caught it right there on his drone. Ken, get that drone back. We need to get over there.
Brian Greene
I want a cool name like Cowboy Ken. You call me Billabong Brian or something.
Darlene Stinkhand
I sure will.
Brian Greene
Can you call me Backstreet Brian? Yeah, that's my new nickname. Backstreet Brian. Again, Huckleberry looks like a totally different human being. I swear to God, they've had multiple huckleberries. And why are they all wearing winter hats?
Darlene Stinkhand
I don't know.
Brian Greene
It doesn't seem very cold outside.
Chris Hoadley
We need to get over to where that tree. Just come down and get over there. Now look here.
Brian Greene
Why is he holding the drone like that? It's like he's waiting for it to lift him off the ground.
Darlene Stinkhand
Well, he's gonna be waiting on a long time.
Brian Greene
You know, whenever there's impending doom and danger and claws and teeth and bloody marks and lots of things on fire and blood splashing out of these guys will run right into it. They're the bravest guys I know.
Darlene Stinkhand
They really are.
Chris Hoadley
Look here, look here. Look. What do you got? What do you got, Buck? Damn.
Brian Greene
Look at this, guys.
Chris Hoadley
Get the hell up here.
Brian Greene
Damn. Guys. Look at this. Look at this mean killing machine over here. Get over here. Here they come. I guarantee that was pulled down with a thing. Yes, you can see the trail right behind it clearly. There's been like a four wheeler behind it.
Chris Hoadley
Gone.
Brian Greene
Gone.
Chris Hoadley
Son of a bitch.
Brian Greene
I've never seen so many quick shots of a fallen tree. Trying to make it look scary.
Darlene Stinkhand
I know. Well, and they did it where it's like the, you know, tails flies. Flash side. Yeah, the flash.
Chris Hoadley
Look at this. Look at this. My gosh, look at this.
Brian Greene
Look at this. Look at this, look at this. Look at this. Good night, John boy. Good night, Mary.
Chris Hoadley
I spot that tree right up ahead. I hurry up and get up there and man, this thing has tore all to shreds. Look at that. Oh, man, you can see.
Brian Greene
Where would he shred a tree, Chrissy? Why? Why would they make a show like this? I fail to know the reasoning behind any of it, but it's highly entertaining.
Chris Hoadley
It is.
Brian Greene
I don't know. Look at this. We're all entertained by a falling tree.
Chris Hoadley
And ripped to pieces. That's that damn tree. A bigfoot ripped. I down think this.
Brian Greene
That's that damn treated big foot ripped down. We know, Bill. We see it. Also, thanks for pointing out the obvious.
Chris Hoadley
Squatch is gonna get nicknamed Paul Bunyan. Look at the size of this. Yeah, it's a big old ass. About probably 50, 60 years old. 70 somewhere around there. Probably.
Brian Greene
50, 60, 70.
Darlene Stinkhand
Be fair. It looks dead.
Brian Greene
80, 90. Yeah, it does look pretty sickly. I bet it didn't take a lot of force to just pull it down.
Chris Hoadley
Pissed off bigfoot, guys. Yes, it is. Oh, you bet it is. You think he got mad because we had that drone in there?
Brian Greene
You think he got mad cause he had that drone? You think he got mad because I had an erection? Do you think because he had a drone in there? Yeah. Bigfoot was upset.
Chris Hoadley
That's a good possibility. That's a good. Yeah.
Brian Greene
You think he was upset I hadn't washed my jeans and in two years.
Chris Hoadley
You think he's pissed about something? Guys, I got a big question for you. What's that?
Brian Greene
Which one of you dealt it? Because I just. Who farted? No, that's just my beard.
Chris Hoadley
Bigfoot did this. Where's he at? I hadn't thought about that.
Brian Greene
Well, golly. Well, palm my dick and call me Rosie. You bring up a good point.
Chris Hoadley
My guess is not real far.
Brian Greene
Whispers are scary.
Chris Hoadley
I tell you what I think we need to do. Guys, it's starting to get dark. We need to go back, get our lights, get our guns, get the thermal, and get back out here. That's right.
Brian Greene
We need to do this in the dark. Here's what we need to do. Let's hit old country buffet. I'm gonna take a hot deuce.
Darlene Stinkhand
Load up a Mountain Dew.
Brian Greene
You wash your beard because it smells like. We'll get Billy to get us some Mountain Dews. Already done, boys. We'll come back when it's pitch black. It'll be better for seeing stuff, you know? Of course.
Chris Hoadley
Yeah. You want to grab that drone and see if we can't get it airborne? See if we can't get some action. Will do. All right. Holy. Right up in there. Whoa. Right up in there.
Brian Greene
They're all pointing. They're all up in there.
Chris Hoadley
Trina. Oh, yes, it was.
Brian Greene
Guys.
Chris Hoadley
The huntsman on.
Brian Greene
Oh, yeah.
Chris Hoadley
Kill those lights and go to IR.
Brian Greene
Kill those lights and go to ir.
Darlene Stinkhand
What's ir?
Brian Greene
I don't know, but it sounds like we're, we're, we're watching NASA like a SpaceX launch. Now kill the lights, go to AR. Capcom, go kill the lights and go to AR. Roger, Cap.
Chris Hoadley
All right, that sounded like it was just right up the hill.
Brian Greene
So wait, let me get this straight. They kill the lights on the camera, but every single one of them is illuminated? Is illuminated with a headlamp. Okay, gotcha.
Chris Hoadley
Hell yeah. That's not far. I know Ken didn't expect to be out here doing tree knocks and actually get a response.
Darlene Stinkhand
Oh, tree knock.
Brian Greene
What is a tree knock? Well, you remember when I told you about the wacking tree, the wagon tree? You ever seen a porn movie where the male in the movie smacks his erect penis on a vagina of a young, lovely woman? Well, that's called a tree knock. And what we do here is we run around whacking our dicks against trees, hoping that Bigfoot does the same in response. It's his calling card.
Chris Hoadley
Right up in there. That was a damn tree knock. Hell yes, it was. Welcome, Cowboy Ken. You're a names member. All right, here's the plan. Welcome, Cowboy Ken.
Brian Greene
You're officially a names member. You're the one we're gonna feed the Bigfoot.
Chris Hoadley
Willie, Bill, Cowboy Ken. Willie, Bill, Other Bill.
Brian Greene
Other.
Chris Hoadley
Billy, Huck. Huck. Huck.
Brian Greene
Number three and Cowboy Ken. You go first. I'll be back here. It's snack time. I'm contractually obligated to have three snacks a half hour.
Chris Hoadley
All right, you three start up the Holler about 150 yards. Start working on the side of that hill. Jeff, Huck. We're going to go up this way and we're going to spread out and see if we can't get our eyes on this. Hey, guys. Hey, guys.
Brian Greene
I don't walk so good. Anybody got a four by?
Chris Hoadley
Check this out.
Brian Greene
It's a tree.
Darlene Stinkhand
Yes.
Chris Hoadley
Look at this.
Brian Greene
Wow.
Chris Hoadley
My gosh. Look at this thing. Man, that's creepy looking. Man, that's a tree.
Brian Greene
I know. It's just a tree. It's an oak tree. Oh, my God. Geez. We're really desperate for. For really desperate for some kind of attention here, huh?
Chris Hoadley
We're walking along this trail, all of a sudden we look up and here's this big old honey locust, all gnarled together, twisted together. That old honey locust is twisted.
Brian Greene
It's a honey locust. Oh, interesting. You learn something new every day on Mountain Monsters.
Darlene Stinkhand
This is a teaching show.
Chris Hoadley
Yeah, it is. Looking up at this tree. This don't give me any good feelings. Sure look. Looks like it should be bigfoot country.
Darlene Stinkhand
What constitutes looking like it should be bigfoot country?
Brian Greene
This looks like a tree. Yoni having her moon cycle right to.
Chris Hoadley
The center of your soul. Telling you guys, that's a devil tree.
Brian Greene
I'm telling you guys, I saw this on Instagram. It's called the devil tree. And we're supposed to sacrifice to it by, I don't know, doing a little dancing and two stretches and a downward dog. We better get on our paws, boys.
Chris Hoadley
That is creepy looking. Dang it. Hey. Okay. Hey. Step back.
Brian Greene
Hey, get the fuck out of the way.
Chris Hoadley
Hey, guys, here's a side by side trail. Oh, hell yes. Oh, yeah.
Brian Greene
Oh, hell yes. You hadn't noticed that you were walking on a side by side trail before?
Darlene Stinkhand
No.
Brian Greene
It's just come upon you that there's a side by side trail.
Chris Hoadley
Yeah, that nest in that video was right along with side by side trail nest.
Darlene Stinkhand
Yeah, guys, Bigfoot in a nest.
Brian Greene
We're in the money, guys. Got a bigfoot nest.
Chris Hoadley
ARR. I make nests for my bigfoot eggs. Just making my bigfoot nest. It's big fat people. Quick, knock the tree. Take dick whack across tree. Make him scared. In that video that Jeff has of that nest, you could clearly see a side beside trail right nearby that nest. It may not be okay.
Brian Greene
We've all been using cell phones for about 20 years now. And I guess whatever raccoon, Jim or whatever his name is, has the inability to hold a phone straight so he can get an actual picture of something. Bigfoot nest. It just looks like a bunch of weeds too far.
Chris Hoadley
What? Let's start beating this trail. You ready? Yeah. Ye. Just keep walking up this way, boys. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Brian Greene
Listen, I got my gun out. Pew, pew, pew.
Darlene Stinkhand
Trying to go through the forest.
Brian Greene
I know. They're just trying to walk through a forest. It's not very foresty. There's no trees, but okay, I get it.
Chris Hoadley
Can you hear that? Yeah.
Brian Greene
He's got a nine millimeter in his hand. He's. He's like pointing at things with it.
Darlene Stinkhand
I know.
Brian Greene
I think that's like the rule number one of gun safety is you don't use your gun as a pointer.
Chris Hoadley
Sounds like something's moaning or crying or something. Yeah, over there. Hear that cowboy? Yeah, he's coming right there for right over there.
Darlene Stinkhand
Cowboy's like, I was just supposed to do the drone shots.
Brian Greene
Yeah.
Darlene Stinkhand
How am I out here now?
Brian Greene
He's like, listen, somebody called me and said you got a Dundee done got a drone. And they said you want to be on a TV show. I didn't bargain for all this. Bigfoot, you go first.
Chris Hoadley
Go easy, Bill.
Brian Greene
Go easy, Bill. Go easy. Has Bill ever gone easy on anything?
Darlene Stinkhand
No, he hasn't, Brian.
Brian Greene
No, I can't do that.
Chris Hoadley
Guys, there's really not that many side by side trails that we've found here in the Tiger Valley.
Brian Greene
No, no. Meanwhile, these guys are having a stroll. You know, I really haven't wondered too many side by side trails down here on Tiger Valley. You know, in 1947, Tiger Valley got his name because they found an actual tiger. No, I didn't know that, Buck. Meanwhile, these other three are pointing guns at each other.
Chris Hoadley
Keep the thermal moving, J. All right.
Brian Greene
I got her, buddy.
Darlene Stinkhand
Get the thermals.
Brian Greene
And again, there is nothing smarter in my opinion when it comes to safety and security than sending one team one way and one team the other way. To circle back around when everybody's got guns. That's right. Take out the thermals. It's 42 degrees max, you time.
Chris Hoadley
Take your time. Hey, look here, look here, look here. What do you got?
Brian Greene
Wow, it's a stick. I found a stick.
Chris Hoadley
Pine limbs.
Darlene Stinkhand
Pine limbs.
Brian Greene
Pine limbs.
Chris Hoadley
Hmm.
Brian Greene
Something seems awful suspicious in Tiger Valley on this side by side trail. Pine limbs. I wonder where they coming from. Probably the pine tree. Buck.
Darlene Stinkhand
They zoom in on the pine tree.
Chris Hoadley
I know that's fresh. We've gotta be getting close to that nest. The hole outside there nest was covered in pine ls. Yeah, it was.
Brian Greene
Yeah, he was, huh?
Darlene Stinkhand
He has a specific tree he likes to build the nest with.
Brian Greene
Pine leaves and huckle huckle fin. And what was that? Huckle honey suckle or whatever it was. Huckle honey suckle. That's one creepy honey huckle suckle.
Chris Hoadley
Yeah. The whole nest made out of pine limbs. Look around. Do you see any pine trees? I ain't seeing one. Right here.
Darlene Stinkhand
Importing them in special.
Chris Hoadley
Hello, it's me, Bigfoot. Hello. Yes, me Bigfoot. Need some more honeysuckle puckle and pine leaves. Yes. Making big nests. I am. Don't tell anybody. I'm a prime member. Do I get that overnight? Yes. Okay. All right. Thank you.
Brian Greene
Let me ask a question. If they're in search of this supposed Bigfoot nest, why didn't the guy who found the Bigfoot nest just tell him where it is? Why didn't they just let him know? Why are they running around like this?
Chris Hoadley
Yeah, fake stuff.
Darlene Stinkhand
Come on, Bongo grind.
Brian Greene
Yeah, come on, Captain Kim or whatever your Name is Cowboy. Captain Kim.
Chris Hoadley
Guys, look at this.
Brian Greene
Dang. We didn't even notice that was right next to us the entire time.
Chris Hoadley
Oh, my God.
Brian Greene
It's a ball of twine. What you guys can't see is that they're just. You're not missing anything. Like, visually, you're not missing anything. They're just walking around the woods picking up sticks and making, you know, illogical conclusions about it. But they just turned literally to the right and two feet in front of them, them is this big ball of sticks and twigs and pine and honeysuckle puckle and all this.
Darlene Stinkhand
They couldn't see that during the day.
Brian Greene
No, they could.
Darlene Stinkhand
They had to wait.
Brian Greene
Do that at night. Of course. Chrissy, it makes more sense when you can use the thermals. Number one. Number two, you turn on the ir. Number two. I'm pretty sure you would have seen that regardless of what day or time of night it is. The thing is huge.
Darlene Stinkhand
Yeah, yeah.
Brian Greene
Good. Good crafting on behalf of the staff there, by the. The way.
Darlene Stinkhand
Design.
Chris Hoadley
There it is.
Brian Greene
Wow. They have a lot of shots of it, you know what I'm saying? They seem like they've taken a lot of B roll of this particular thing. Oh, oh, and there's lights.
Darlene Stinkhand
Oh, there was a little door.
Brian Greene
There's a little door. That's right. Big Bigfoot. While he may not, you know, he might be the kind creature that tears down trees and tree limbs and all that, he has excellent landscape and hardscape taste. He's got great lighting outside. I want that kind of lighting outside in our landscape. Actually, Aster won't let me pay for it.
Chris Hoadley
Never seen anything like his.
Brian Greene
I have also never seen tree lighting in the middle of the forest. But, hey, what am I? Who am I? They have lights all around it.
Darlene Stinkhand
They do.
Brian Greene
They're not even pretending to hide them. They're just light lights. Like, they have spooky atmospheric. Clearly set up professional lighting, casting a. Looks like a ride at Disney World.
Chris Hoadley
At Disney. Massive Bigfoot best.
Darlene Stinkhand
Oh, well, that was it.
Brian Greene
Well, that was it.
Chris Hoadley
Yeah.
Brian Greene
They're not going to show you the end. Like, all these videos they. That. And. And obviously I don't have the rights to watch the. I don't have any of the rights to do any. Any of this. I'm just. I'm. This is under fair use. I'm making commentary on it. But on YouTube, they don't show the conclusion of any of these. Not most of them. What they really show is like the teaser and then they want you to go watch the episode. But this is the five best hunts or the scariest hunts. So we're going to do number four in the next segment. I'm going to take a short break. We'll do number four in the next segment. And then if we need to, I guess we can just roll into.
Darlene Stinkhand
We're going to have to.
Brian Greene
Why not? The guys and the kids love it I out there. It's the only thing that they love, apparently, is the bigfoot. But that's okay. I'll give you what you want. All right, let's take a break. We'll be back. Let me do something Brian has never done. Be brief. Follow us on Instagram at the commercial break, text or call us. 212-4333, tcb. That's 212-433-3822.

We just saw them come across a bigfoot nest that was well lit and actually looks kind of cozy.
Darlene Stinkhand
It did. Yeah. It looked like something you'd find, like in the hobbit land or something.
Brian Greene
Fyre fest or something, you know, like a glamping. Like a glamping location. Do you know what I'm saying? All right, let's get back to it with number four. Here we go.
Chris Hoadley
There. Look there. Look.
Brian Greene
Look right there.
Chris Hoadley
There's a lightning bolt. We're in Blair County, Pennsylvania, and we're going after the Lightning Man. The Lightning Man.
Brian Greene
The Lightning Man. The Lightning man, who looks very lightning.
Darlene Stinkhand
Much like what you would think. A Bigfoot.
Brian Greene
Bigfoot, that's right. Just a little way more fangier. Lots more fangs.
Chris Hoadley
That's a Bigfoot. He strikes out of the darkness and then just vanishes. That means he's damn quick. He's agile. He'll be out of the dark, on top of you and going. Before you know, you got your guts ripped out.
Darlene Stinkhand
Damn.
Brian Greene
Well, that was descriptive.
Darlene Stinkhand
The Lightning Man.
Brian Greene
Well, that. That explains a lot. That expl. A lot. Explains a lot of things that happened to me in the woods as a kid. It was the Lightning Man.
Chris Hoadley
Look at the steam coming out right there.
Brian Greene
That's right. It's a hot, steamy pile of. Oh, earthquake. Here we go.
Chris Hoadley
The hell was that? That's Thunder. Thunder Brothers.
Brian Greene
We got to get the Thunder Brothers. The Thunder Brothers. That's Thunder Brothers. It sounds like a gay porn duo. This Tuesday, the Thunder Brothers bring their variety review and striptease to Back Street Atlanta.
Chris Hoadley
Need to get it cooled off. How are we going to cool it off? Hold that. We need to get out of that cat piss on it, and we need that pipe, so that's taking all my.
Brian Greene
Oh, he pissed on it. He pissed on it. He's pissing on it. Some reason the Thunder Brothers left a pipe or the Lightning man or whatever left a pipe that was too hot to touch, and they need it. For what reason? I don't know. It's like hieroglyphs in ancient Egypt. They need to get out of the tomb and quickly. It's like a real Harrison Ford. So he's pissing on it. Oh, my God. God. Come on, guys. You're bringing this down. I thought this was a family show.
Chris Hoadley
Pissed on a damn thing and cooled it off. Take that. I'm doing here. They know.
Brian Greene
Here, you grab it with your bare hands. Oh, lovely.
Chris Hoadley
That's nasty. Let's go. Get ahead of me. Get ahead of me. That was right up there, bud.
Brian Greene
I'm surprised with my prostate I was able to get anything out, but it dribbled out.
Darlene Stinkhand
Why did they need the pot?
Brian Greene
I don't know. Why did he need to piss on it? Why did the other guy pick it up with his hand? Is piss really gonna cool it off that much back there?
Chris Hoadley
About 20, 30 yards. It sounds like something's beating on the trees. Almost like thunder. See anything?
Darlene Stinkhand
Thunder.
Brian Greene
Almost like thunder. Like thunder.
Chris Hoadley
What's an ammo? Right up through there. I just caught movement. Right up through there.
Darlene Stinkhand
Shoot. This was one instance when they weren't pointing the gun at each other. They were actually able to get a clear shot.
Brian Greene
That's right. They saw. He said he saw movement. I start shooting. If it was me, I'd just start indiscriminately shooting into the air. Yeah. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Just side to side like a movie, hoping to hit something.
Chris Hoadley
My lights out, Buck. That's the life you made. Yeah, good deal. Good deal, Buck.
Brian Greene
Good deal.
Chris Hoadley
Yeah, get that lighter out. Yeah, good deal.
Brian Greene
Get that lighter out. That'll shed a bunch of light on the situation. Nothing illuminates a room like a lighter.
Chris Hoadley
Going in here. Now stick one of them big hairy paws in her now.
Brian Greene
Yeah, I got a lighter. Go ahead. How dare you. I dare you. Stick your dirty mugs in here. Now. I got a pissy pipe and a hot lighter that's burning my thumb. I also have a gun, but I'm not gonna use that.
Chris Hoadley
We're in trouble. I'm losing fluid.
Brian Greene
We're losing fluid. Fluid. You couldn't hold the lighter that long anyway. They're gonna explode in your hand.
Chris Hoadley
I'm out.
Brian Greene
Oh, that was conveniently quick. I've had Bic lighters for five years that never ran out. Right? When I smoked cigarettes, I had one lighter, I swear to God, for five years, it never ran out of fluid. And I did a lot of things with that lighter. A lot. But I never chased a Bigfoot with it. Well, however, he conveniently had it lit for 30 seconds and it ran out of fluid. See?
Chris Hoadley
Nothing. I can't see a thing. I hear him, I hear him.
Brian Greene
I hear him, I hear him.
Chris Hoadley
They're right on our ass. Come on, we gotta get there. Come on, come on, come on. I hear him hollering. Come on, let's go.
Brian Greene
Here come the Thunder Brothers. Here come the Thunder Brothers. Be careful.
Chris Hoadley
We mean you no harm. We just want to show you our new routine.
Brian Greene
Look.
Chris Hoadley
Clap them cheeks.
Darlene Stinkhand
Clap them cheeks.
Chris Hoadley
Found it. You got it? We got it.
Brian Greene
We got it.
Chris Hoadley
Right here, brother. Take this last piece. We got it.
Brian Greene
I'm right directly in front of you. I'll scream loud. You got the piss pipe? I got the piss pipe. You got the deadliner?
Chris Hoadley
I do.
Brian Greene
We've got all the ingredients. For what? I don't Know, we gotta get that.
Chris Hoadley
Ax put together and we gotta do it fast. Let's do it. Let's do that. Do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. We got that piece of pipe we believe has that second piece at lashing in it. The only way to get it open is beat it open. What?
Brian Greene
What are these guys doing?
Darlene Stinkhand
Why are they beating up?
Brian Greene
Yeah. All of a sudden, it's an Indiana Jones adventure. It's a choose your own adventure. This is a Dan Brown novel now. I don't know what's going on.
Chris Hoadley
Is that it? That's it. That's it. That's it.
Brian Greene
That's it. Oh, there it is. It's a piece of my shit. Well, to cool it off, you see, I stuck it on my ass and relieved myself.
Chris Hoadley
Oh, yeah. We just got that pipe open and there it was. That's the other piece of that lashing we was looking for. Now we have all the pieces of the thunder axe.
Brian Greene
Thunder axe? What the fuck is a thunder axe?
Darlene Stinkhand
They're fitting it together.
Brian Greene
Oh, my God. This has gone way out of control now. It's a Marvel movie. Where's Thanos when you need him?
Chris Hoadley
That's it. We got it. We got it. Oh, yeah.
Darlene Stinkhand
They had a gun.
Brian Greene
Yeah, everyone's got guns, but they're all excited about a thunder axe made with lashing and a piece of shitty wood.
Chris Hoadley
We got the thunder axe.
Brian Greene
Yeah, this. This is like a 4chan board come to life. We call it the Thunder Axe Storm the Capitol.
Chris Hoadley
We have the power. Whoa. We just got the thunder Axe assembled. We need to get it in that safety box and give the Lightning man his chance to touch it. Come on, guys. Come on.
Brian Greene
What? This sounds really complicated for a mythological dum dum creature, like for a walking ape, really.
Chris Hoadley
The TR is set. The thunder axe is in the security box. Now we have to back off and let the Lightning man do his part.
Brian Greene
All right.
Chris Hoadley
As much as I hate to do this.
Darlene Stinkhand
Fall into the trap.
Brian Greene
Yeah.
Chris Hoadley
We have to leave that thunder axe here. We have to back out. Yeah.
Brian Greene
As much as I hate to do this, we gotta let Thunderman stick his hot loins in there. And then when he does, he will jizz lightning and we will all become all powerful. All mythological creatures will bow to our will. We have the thunder. Thunder Axe. Full of pee, but it's the Thunder Axe nonetheless.
Chris Hoadley
Get Lightning man his chance to touch that thunder axe. Yeah. Huckleberry Bill, Jeff, get up high on that ridge about 100 yards back behind the trap. All right? Will you Come with me. We're gonna hit that high. Will you come with me?
Brian Greene
We're gonna hit that Krispy Kreme. We're gonna hit that Krispy Kreme. 30, 40 yards out and then we'll be back. Yeah. You guys wait for certain death. I'll be at the Krispy Kreme.
Chris Hoadley
Jump on this side. Trap door goes down. We come running.
Brian Greene
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Chris Hoadley
Let's go. This storm come out of nowhere. Looks like.
Brian Greene
Man. This storm conveniently come out of nowhere during the Lightning man episode. That's kind of crazy. Or well timed.
Chris Hoadley
Daylight Go son. What was that? What was that?
Brian Greene
What was that? What was that?
Chris Hoadley
Right there.
Brian Greene
What was that?
Darlene Stinkhand
They did Billy.

Brian Greene

Chris Hoadley

Brian Greene
What you inside.
Chris Hoadley

Brian Greene
Don't make the pancakes. It's a goddamn veggie chicken fried on. You've been out here all night with your boyfriend?
Chris Hoadley
Hey. Honey.
Brian Greene
I told you I saw him. I got out of my goddamn. You better stop playing out here with your boyfriends right here.
Chris Hoadley
What if I do? I don't see anything. Easy now. Easy. Be ready. Be ready. Bill. He was like your huck, Remember? We gotta let him touch that thunder axe. Easy.
Brian Greene
Easy. Go slow. I don't want to die too quickly. Now. You gotta let him touch that thunder. That PP Thunder axe.
Chris Hoadley
I heard something over here.
Brian Greene
This is just wild to me that they found a pipe. They pissed on it. Inside the pipe was a lashing that. Then they found a rock that then they put a piece of wood together to make a thunder axe. And that thunder axe needs to be touched by the Lightning Man. Then the Thunder Brothers.
Darlene Stinkhand
Inside the security box.
Brian Greene
Inside the security box. And then I don't know what happens. What happens then? I don't know. Oh. Everyone exploded. Did you hear that very realistic explosion noise that sounded like a cartoon.
Darlene Stinkhand
Tree'S on fire.
Chris Hoadley
That lightning bolt right there. Huckaberg.
Brian Greene
That was a lightning bolt right there. I guess Buck did have some extra fluid in his lighting. He lit the tree on fire.
Chris Hoadley
Cal. Brother. What happened? Lighting him right there. That tree right there. That tree right there.
Brian Greene
The only tree in the entire forest that has been lit on fire. Can you see it directly? Where of us?
Chris Hoadley
Where? Come on. Bill. Come on. We got Jeffro. Jeff right there. Damn.
Brian Greene
Hey.
Chris Hoadley

Chris Hoadley
Jeffro. Holy. Pull.
Brian Greene
Guard.
Chris Hoadley
Bill. Jeff. Why is there Jeff.
Brian Greene
Jeff.
Chris Hoadley
Jeff.
Brian Greene
Jeff. Jeff.
Chris Hoadley
Jeffro.
Brian Greene
Jeff. The. It's clear. The more you yell his name the more he will recover from a certain lightning strike. It's in the medical textbooks.
Chris Hoadley
Lightning. In my 49 years in the woods, I've never had a life that close to me. You can feel the power. Holy Vikings.
Darlene Stinkhand
Been out there for a hundred.
Brian Greene
Oh, yeah.
Chris Hoadley
He. Yeah.
Brian Greene
This is 49. That's just how many years he's been out in these woods. This time it was the first 22 years of his life. He took a short break in Paducah and then he came back. Oh. Knocked him right out of his shoes. Yeah.
Chris Hoadley
Is he all right? It's one. He never got closer than that buck. He was standing right there. Right there. I mean, he shook the ground.
Brian Greene
Let's forget about medical attention and recall exactly what happened.
Chris Hoadley
If I got some bad news, brother. What? Your boot blew off and you pissed your pants. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Brian Greene
Oh, my. Will it my tally whacker. He's been pissing all over the place. This time he's had a lot and a go. He had to go.
Chris Hoadley
That's all right.
Brian Greene
That's all right. That's all right. We'll clean you up. We always do. We'll catch you new ones.
Chris Hoadley
You're lucky to be alive. Yes, sir. All I remember is Huckleberry and Bill going down over that hill. Next thing I saw a flash of light, a huge boom. Blew the piss out of me. My boot flew off. That's the brightest light I've ever seen in my whole life. You're not going to be alive.
Brian Greene
You're not going to be alive. Don't worry. We don't need any additional medical attention for that lightning strike. Yeah. No. Terrified. You might hear a buzz for a couple of days and radios might turn channels when you walk by them. But don't worry about it.
Chris Hoadley
Lightning hit a tree that close. Oh, man. 10ft away.
Brian Greene
Yeah.
Chris Hoadley
What the hell is that? That's a trap door. Huckleberry, stay with the jack. We heard the trap door go down. We need to hurry up and get up there. Then we gotta slow down and ease in because that lightning man could still be right there.
Brian Greene
Said every woman he has ever slept with. Slow down, ease in before the thunder man gets here. Easy, easy, easy, easy, easy.
Chris Hoadley
That lightning man, Thunder brothers could be right here. The trap door's down.
Brian Greene
Watch.
Chris Hoadley
Make sure they're not here. Willie, I'm a looking. I'm a looking. Willie, go to the right of the. I'm a looking.
Brian Greene
I'm a looking. I'm putting an A in front of looking to make it sound like I'm a little more redneck than I actually am. I'm a look. Good trap.
Chris Hoadley
Bill, cover the front. I'm gonna head around to the left. Let's check it out. Make sure he's. He's has to be close. He can be right here, guys. Keep your eyes open.
Brian Greene
I a say, what's that?
Darlene Stinkhand
What was the trap?
Brian Greene
I don't know. It doesn't matter. It's all just moving cameras really fast so you can't see anything on this side.
Chris Hoadley
It's in there. The thunder is in there. It's in.
Brian Greene
It's in the trap. Yeah.
Chris Hoadley
Good deal. Yeah, it's in the trap. Hell yeah. Jeff, come on.
Brian Greene
Jeff, Jeff, Jeff. I know you just got hit by lightning, but come over here and see.
Darlene Stinkhand
The and fist your pan.
Brian Greene
See our thunder out ax. It's really cool. I've got a he man and Shera playset also.
Chris Hoadley
Go easy now. Go easy, Jeff.
Brian Greene
Go easy now. I think you also shat yourself. I can smell it from here. I think it's pee pee and poo poo, if you know what I mean.
Chris Hoadley
Got the thunder axes in the trap. How are you boys?
Brian Greene
Hallelujah, boys. I got struggle my lightning shat myself. Lost my ability to get an erection and I got a terrible headache. But woohoo. We got a thunder axe, whatever that means.
Chris Hoadley
We'Re in central Kentucky.
Brian Greene
And the team quickly sent the thunder axe to the Smithsonian for additional research because, you know, the thunder axe and all that shit. All right, everyone settled down? It's getting too loud in here. Oh, and the boys, well, there just has never been a better episode. I love the mountain monsters to death. I just think this is the funniest show that has ever been.
Darlene Stinkhand
It really is.
Brian Greene
And it's hard for me to imagine that there is any human being out there that is watching this with any degree of seriousness, but it's possible that there is someone out there believing this stuff. And I feel bad for their relatives. That's all. I gotta.
Darlene Stinkhand
Maybe in the first couple of seasons. But aren't they on like season 20?
Brian Greene
I think it's actually. I think they're actually only on season number eight or nine. But I believe that they are not making any more new mountain monsters. I think they canceled it. Yeah, right before you get that lucrative, you know, syndication contract. It always works that way.
Darlene Stinkhand
Huh? That works. Trying to save money.
Brian Greene
But don't worry, it'll be. I think it's on max right now. It'll. It'll float to Netflix or something like. But what are those boys gonna do after they get done with this? Do you think they made enough money to just kind of walk off into the sunset.
Darlene Stinkhand
Well, depending on where they live.
Brian Greene
Well, you'd be surprised. I bet the. I bet these guys live in like Manhattan. They probably in the Hamptons or something. Yeah, I bet they clean up nice.
Darlene Stinkhand
Have a big lake cabin.
Brian Greene
Yeah, for sure. They're living on some lake in Kentucky and they'll always be famous. To the, to those who know. To those who want. Yeah, you know, it goes to show make content.
