On this episode of the Commercial Break.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Remember when people thought Adam Levine was segmented?
Christina
No.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. Now he's just. Now he's pitching acne medication, late night tv.
Christina
I was never a big Adam Levine fan.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I'll tell you when I liked Adam. When he was coming on the Stern show frequently, he seemed very like normal. He had the same problems I had, even though he was fabulously rich and was dating every victorious supermodel ever and had so many tattoos. When I'm scared to get like a peace symbol on my butt. The next episode of the Commercial Break starts now. Oh yeah, Cats and kittens, welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is my dear friend and the co host of this show, Kristen Joy Hoadley, trudging through life one incredibly difficult day at a time. Best to you, Chrissy.
Christina
Best to you and best to you.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Out there in the podcast universe hearing from so many of you. Thank you, thank you, thank you for writing in. We know, we know. We're here with you. We feel it. It's okay. It's all going to be okay.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Because Zach Bryan and Chicken Fry at Chicken Fry Leg at some point. We'll get back. Not Zack Brian. Zach Brian. I'm saying Zach Bryan. Is it Zach Bryan? It's not Zach Bryan. Who am I saying? Do you know this story?
Christina
A chicken fried.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
The chicken. You know Chicken fry.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Brianna Chicken fry and Zach Bryan. That's right, it's Zach Bryan. Yeah, I think it's Zach Brown is what I thought I said. Do you know Chicken Fry, that song? No. Oh, that's by Zach Brown.
Christina
Oh, all right.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I want them on chicken fries. It looks just fine. I tell you, one time I saw that guy, like I was zipping around around that apartment that I used to have.
Christina
Yeah, he.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And I would see that guy in his Jeep, like riding around on occasion.
Christina
Yeah, no, he used to. He got a start here.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, he did. He would play at a lot of the same bars that I would go to. He would play with some people that I knew. Like there's this guy named Francisco Vidal who is used to be at least storied in the Atlanta bar scene for his cover Tunage. And then he'll put together big bands, you know, for like big bars and play all night long and get the crowd riled up.
Christina
A good cover band is fun.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Absolutely. Good cover band is worth the money. That's what I said. When I used to work in the restaurant industry. We, we would have the, you know, the bars would be attached to the restaurants. And I would, every Friday, Saturday, sometimes Sundays, you would get a good band because they'd be worth the money. They keep people there drinking and doing drugs and that's what you want. But there's this whole, there's this whole curve, including me. But there's this curfuffle going on with Brianna Chicken Fry and Zach Bryan. And I don't know if, you know, Zack Bryan is a country singer of some note. He's had a couple of hits and he started dating a girl that works for. Let me check my notes here, kids. That's why I Made notes, actually. Dave Portnoy. Sorry, I keep on forgetting that guy's name. You know Dave Portnoy from Barstool Sports, the guy who heads up Barstool?
Christina
Yeah, I think so.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He's incredibly popular. He's a divisive figure. Whether you like him or don't like him, I think that's besides the point. But he has a podcast with this girl, Brianna Chicken Fry, who used to be kind of an influencer. She went to, like. I think she went to Yale or something like that. And she. Or no, she was going to be a med. She was a med student. Pre med student. And she made these viral videos about her going out at night, getting drunk, and then the hangovers that would happen. A couple of these videos went viral. One time she said, I think my leg looks like a chicken French Fry from Burger King. And so her name stuck. Brianna Chicken Fries.
Christina
Oh, got it. Okay. Thanks for the back story.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
So she starts dating this singer named Zach Brian. Zach Brian, a country singer getting famous. There's this big kerfuffle now because they were a couple, then they were living together. Then all of a sudden, Zach Brian breaks up with her via social media. He decides that the best place to announce this is on social media, according to Brianna. Now, this is her side of the story, right? Then she starts talking about how he was, like, emotionally abusive to her. And she goes into this long diatribe. On one of these podcasts that I watch on Barstool Sports, she goes into this long diatribe about some of the emotional abuse was she went to the. Not the Emmys, but what are the. The Golden Globes. She goes to the Golden Globe. She's wearing a dress. That dress has some cleavage. She's showing her boots. But it's not anything. Something that any other woman wouldn't wear. To accentuate the best parts of you, it's like, not. It's. She's not Kanye's girlfriend. You know what I'm saying? Bianca. Sorry. She just walking around naked with a sheer piece of clothing on. And I guess that's okay, too, as long as it's in the right place, like you're appropriate. Not at the Cheesecake Factory. Right. But okay, so Bianca's wearing this, you know, beautiful dress, in my opinion. Beautiful dress. And Zach starts. He unfollows her on social media, tells her that kind of like, yeah, you're a whore for wearing that. Like, I don't date people.
Christina
Wow.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Who do that kind of stuff. This is all going on behind the scenes. And so what was supposed to be a fun night for Brianna Chicken Fry, who was like, influencer, who got on one of the more popular podcasts in the world and then gets, you know, some fame. She gets invited to the Golden Globes. She goes, and then her night is ruined because once she starts posting pictures, Zach Bryant unfriends her, unfollows her, and tells her basically, you know, you're acting slutty, which is a completely inappropriate reaction to a. Anybody wearing whatever they want. But a beautiful woman wearing a beautiful dress, and who fucking cares if she's got some cleavage? That's. Isn't that kind of what it's like? You got it. Show it. Like, you know, why not? You shouldn't be embarrassed of anything. You should absolutely want to wear a dress that fits nicely and looks great.
Christina
Yeah. And I mean, showing some cleavage is nothing.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
You're at the Golden Globes. Look around you. Everybody's wearing cleavage.
Christina
Let me say, too. So were they together when she left to go to the Golden Globes?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yes, this is during the relationship now.
Christina
They didn't go together, though?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
No, they did not go together.
Christina
Okay.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And so she starts posting her getting ready pictures of the dress. Listen, I mean, I'm not here to judge anybody else's clothing. Show your tits. If you want to show your tits, that's fine. If I could show my balls, I don't think anybody want to see them, but if I could show my balls, I would. If that was, like, you know, appropriate to the place I was.
Christina
Accentuate your balls.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yes. Accentuate my nuts. Lift them up a little bit. Make them feel great, you know, put them out. Smooth skin and all. You know what I'm saying?
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
If they were some wrinkly old white man nuts, then I'd put them out there for the world to see. But that's not my point. My point is you shouldn't be shaming something. Shaming somebody because of what they're wearing. That is a certain type of emotional abuse. It's. It's subtle. Maybe not so subtle. It's cunning. It's cutting. It's like death by a thousand paper cuts. When you say stuff like that. And unfollow your own girlfriend because she's going to have the Golden Globes.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Shitty thing to do.
Christina
I think so, too.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Okay, so then a couple of months ago, Zach writes this post, and he just basically states that he's now single, that he's going to take time to. It's been a tough year. I'm going to take time to Myself, blah, blah, blah. Brianna claims she didn't know any of this until she woke up to read the post. Right? So now they've broken up. He has done this publicly on a social media platform. She has no idea. She wakes up in the morning to find out like everybody else did, that Zach is now single.
Christina
But were they still living together?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Don't ask me.
Christina
Did they wake up next to each other and then she left for work? Don't.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, don't know. I don't know. I don't get that detailed. But I can't imagine. That would be pretty weird is if you wake up and there's like a note on social media, leave my house, don't forget to feed the cat. You know, saying like, kind of weird.
Christina
Yes.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
So Chicken Fry goes on to the Portnoy show, starts talking about kind of these little shitty things that Zach has done. But then that's not the end of the story. And by the way, this story has taken the Internet by fucking storm. It's all over the place. Chicken Fry then starts getting, finding like other social media posts. Some girl friend of a. Listen to this. Some girl goes to college, I think this is in Nashville. Some girl goes to college, her sister's best friend took a picture. That picture shows Zach Bryan laying in a bed in Nashville and there is a woman next to him or like a leg of a woman next to him. Not even like the picture of the. Like, this is my best friend's sister's friend posted on social media and through the, you know, detective of Reddit or whatever, figures out that Zach was with Chicken Fry when this picture was taken. So now essentially Zach is a cheater. He's out there, you know, dating other people. Then someone finds a profile on Raya, that website where you have to be famous or have a certain amount of followers in order to join.
Christina
Oh, right, right.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He finds he. They find a profile on Rhea that's been active almost the entire time that Chicken Fry and Zach have been together. Okay, but he. I wouldn't even be talking about this if it wasn't because this is just another like relationship drama that the tabloids love. If it wasn't for the most recent like, you know, drama dropped. And here's the drama drop. I just made that word up. That's kind of a cool.
Christina
I like it.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
The most recent drama drop is this. Brianna claims that she turned down a 12 million dollar NDA that Zach wanted her to sign not to talk about the relationship. $12 million now. Shitty thing to unfollow Your girlfriend. Shittier thing to find out that your boyfriend is spending the night at some college girl's house in Nashville when you're, you know, at the house feeding the cats. $12 million is a lot of scratch even. I mean, for a young lady who's podcasting and being an influencer. I don't know what kind of money she makes, but I'm in the podcast universe. Let me tell you right now, to get to $12 million, to be a co host of any podcast is a whole shitload of work. Oh, yeah, it's not easy to do that. I know the numbers. They don't work out usually in anybody's favor, including ours. $12 million is a lot of scratch for a young person to. Any person to have 12 million.
Christina
So he was offering her $12 million. Not to talk about.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Shut up and I'll give you $12 million. Sign this NDA and I'll give you $12 million. That's it. And apparently there are other girls who have received similar offers from Zach. Right. That, you know, shut up about our relationship and I'll give you a certain amount of money. First of all, I didn't know Zach Brian was $12 million expendable, kind of famous.
Christina
Yeah. That's a lot.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Second of all, 12 fucking million. Now, I don't want to diminish anything that chicken fry has gone through that Brianna has gone through. You know, when you feel emotionally abused, you feel emotionally abused. And I'm super. I'd say proud of her, you know, but I don't know her. It's hard to be proud of some, you know, like. Like a papa is proud of, like, a daughter or, you know, a child or something like that.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
But I'm glad she's talking about it. I'm glad she's normalizing these, like, kind of emotional, abusive tactics that some people use in relationships. But at the same time, $12 million, that's a lot of scratch. That's a lot of fucking scratch. What do you do? What would you do?
Christina
I, you know. Well, I don't know. That's a. It's a personal situation. So I guess if she's very financially secure and wanted to get her, you know, her voice heard out there. Okay. But yes, it's a lot of money to turn out. She had to think about it.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. Emotionally abusive relationship. And I. And I've talked about it a lot. Right. On the sly. I've never said any names or anything like that, but, you know, I'm talking.
Christina
I do.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And that. That Almost literally took the last breath of life out of me, that relationship. I would take the 12 million. I would take the $12 million and never say another word about it. But I mean, even. I mean, I guess when you're at that level of fame, you have to be careful. But you could probably still talk to your mom about it, right? Mom's not going to go tell anybody.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Mom's not going to sell the story to tabloids. And who knows, maybe Brianna is getting so much attention because of this, someone or her have figured out that that money will come in one way or the other. Like, you'll get that $12 million. Keep being honest about this whole situation. But, wow, that's a lot of scratch to Dr. That's a lot of scratch for kind of, you know, for a dipshit to drop on keeping somebody quiet. That's a lot of scratch to turn down. It really is.
Christina
Well, I mean, what is the most explosive thing, too?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Is it so far, the whole thing about the Golden Globes is like the most that I have been able to dig up. But this is a drama drop a day kind of situation. I've been watching it for like two months. Is when saw the whole, like, it was either a picture, like a short video clip of Zach getting up in the morning and then someone's leg or like a half a boob or something like that. It wasn't even particularly clear what was going on. But then I was like, well, who the is chicken fry and why do we care? Like, why who care? Okay, another I did you wrong song, you know what I'm saying? Like, okay, another dude. Another famous young man out there doing what famous young men sometime and young women sometimes do.
Christina
You don't even have to be famous.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
No. Fuck. I know a lot of guys just couldn't keep it in their pants ever for any reason for anyone. And. And I know a lot of women that were that way too, by the way. I do know a lot of women. I know I was friends for a long time with a woman who never once in my entire time with her did I know her to be in any kind of committed relationship. And she just said, and she was a lovely per. Like, she would have made a lovely girlfriend. She would have just been the best wife ever. But she was a girl boss. No, like, a girl girl boss. Like, really well, very successful.
Christina
Yes.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And she. I always was like, why don't you settle down with that? Not for everybody, young man, that you're taking to these wonderful events and going out to the Bar. And she said, because I can't keep it in my pants. That was just it. She's like, I can't. I can't keep it in my pants.
Christina
At least she's honest.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
She was always, I want the freedom to have sex with whomever I want to or go home and do whatever I want to whenever I want to. And I don't want to have to answer to anybody ever.
Christina
There you go. And I respect that more than hiding it.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. I mean, being on Raya, I mean, honestly, you're on Raya. You're on Raya, and you don't expect that anybody's going to figure it out. You might as well be on fucking Tinder, because in Tinder, you can kind of. You know, there's hundreds of millions of people on Tinder. You can kind of like be in a sea of human beings and no one ever finds out. But when you're on Raya, it's made for famous people and other influencers and they verify that, like, it's. There's no hiding. You could be Bob and put a picture of, like, a dog on your Tinder cover, right? And then just put a few obscure pictures of your face. Love country music. Sometimes in Nashville, hang out at cool bars, you know, just put, like, general descriptive information about you. And then you could get. You could catfish people. Because when Zach Bryan shows up, cool dude, first of all. Second of all, how do you just show up on a date where everybody else knows that you're dating somebody? And how do you explain that to people? Like, eh, you know, could you just keep this one quiet? Can you suck my dick and just keep it quiet? Would that be okay? How do you do that?
Christina
Maybe some people didn't care.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Some people are really fucking entitled, you know? But there's that. There is the fact that there's not too much conversation that I've seen from Zach Bryan's camp. It could very well be that we're just hearing one side of the story and Zach may come out and say, I. This is all misinterpreted. But everybody always says it's, you know, all the guys always say it's misinterpreted. Pete Diddy says it's misinterpreted. Yeah, Diddy.
Christina
God.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Oh, my God, Chrissy. I saw a video. It was really unnerving, actually. Well, first of all, there's a lot of unnerving if you go back and you watch a lot of Diddy on, like, Ellen or Leno or wherever he is, and he says certain things and they take on a whole different.
Christina
They do. I thought. I've seen some of that, too.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He, I think, has a guilty conscience. He knows what he's up to, and it slides out the side of his mouth where no one else knows what he's talking about. But if you were in, like, if, you know, you know, I k. Nydkny if you know, you know, kind of thing. This is video where someone's taking a.
Christina
I don't even think he has a guilty conscience about it. I think he, like, was getting away with something and was being smug about it.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. But I mean, you know, sometimes when you're maybe not a guilty con. I don't know. I don't know what's in Diddy's brain. Doesn't sound like he felt bad about much.
Christina
Right.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
But you know, sometimes when you do something wrong and you're feeling. It's like. It's heavy on your head.
Christina
This is like 20 years of doing wrong things.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Hey, listen, there have been. Yeah, I. I'm just saying, when you look at it and he's, like, telling Justin Bieber, like, just. Justin knows not to say anything about what goes on at a Diddy party. Right. Or Justin and I just spent three nights in a row together. He. He knows I. I treat him well, but he can't talk about it, you know, and people are really speculating. A lot of people are speculating, oh.
Christina
There'S got to be some.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
That Justin Bieber is. Was like a target of some of this sexual abuse. Who knows? Right? But this video that I watched, it was Diddy, like, on a balcony of his home. A home. And he's like. He's announcing with a microphone, announcing to a crowd of people outside that in 15 minutes, anyone under the age of 18 has to be gone. If child services comes and arrests anybody because of what happens after. From 15 minutes from now, that's on you. That's on you. So get your kids out of here. Get the kids out of here. 15 minutes. Am I making myself clear? And it's like, whoa, that's. I've never. I've been to a lot of parties. I never been to a party where they're threatening to call defects on you because you didn't take your kids out of the party.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And I have been to parties in the woods where some really weird shit went on and there were children. Like, people would bring their children to these events.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Now, usually when the sun fell, it was like kind of like vampire time. You, like, hide the kids. Hide your Wife kind of thing. But still, it was a weird announcement to make. And it really, like me gave me chills up my spine. I was like, oh, Diddy, you are. You're.
Christina
Yeah. I don't think we've even scratched the surface on everything that's going to come out with that.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
No, it's like the creep. Creepocaly with that guy. Man. I. Time will tell. And when people start take. Oh, and the other thing that I read, just to put a cap on this whole Diddy thing, because I'm keeping up with it a little bit, is that there are celebrity celebrities that are out there with their attorneys trying to pay supposed victims. Right. Or they're trying to pay victims ahead of any kind of court proceedings to not say their name. Right. And this even has to. This has even gone so far, according to the, like, these newspapers that I read, that some attorneys are approaching people who have not even come out of the woodwork yet. They're, like, not claiming anything.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
But the celebrities are so scared to get mixed. As they should be to get mixed up in any. As they should be to get mixed up in any of these shenanigans that they are preempting it by, like, willing to drop cash. Right. And I'm just. I would be fascinated to learn who these are.
Christina
I know, I know. I mean, I can't wait to see Leonardo DiCaprio.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Oprah. Who's that?
Christina
Oprah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Oprah was, you know, was with Diddy at a few of these. I mean, I don't think Oprah was involved. I don't think Oprah was all baby oiled up sliding around the basement with Diddy.
Christina
I don't think so.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
But you never know.
Christina
I mean, a lot of people went to those parties.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Sure.
Christina
For sure. That weren't involved.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
That doesn't mean you're guilty in the.
Christina
Things that were happening in back rooms.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. I was listening to Stern talk about how he was invited to a Diddy party one time, and Stern, for some reason, every time someone came in that he knew was associated with Diddy Doty did he. He kept poking at them to give him information about, like, what happens. But he went to a Diddy party. But he said he kind of got cordoned off in a certain area and they wouldn't let him to other places in the house. He was like, literally, security guards would not let. How Howard Stern walk around the house. Well, maybe we know now why.
Christina
Exactly.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Good reason. And Howard has a big mouth.
Christina
Well, probably platform.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, that's right. And he's and he's a loudmouth. He doesn't keep anything a secret. So just like here at the commercial, don't tell me any secret secrets because I'll be on the next day talking about it. All right, let's take a break. We'll be back.

This episode is sponsored in part by Zbiotics Pre Alcohol. Let's face it, most of us are not 21 years old partying like we used to. We have to make the choice between a great night or a great morning after. At least that's what we thought. Chrissy and I, until we tried pre alcohol. I don't drink a whole bunch anymore and I was on the fence about this one. But a few weeks ago, Aster and I went out for some drinks for my birthday. The pre alcohol was sitting on the counter and I decided why not give it a try? And let me tell you, pre alcohol is the real deal. ZBiotics Pre alcohol Probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. This was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. Let me tell you how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in your gut. It's this byproduct, not dehydration, that's to blame for your rough next morning. But pre alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. You just need to remember to make Zbiotics your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly and then you're going to feel your best tomorrow. I kept hearing about pre alcohol and I wondered, what is it actually like? Now that I've tried it, I get why everyone is talking about it. And with their GMO technology, ZBiotics is continuing to invent Probiotics that will help the everyday challenges of modern living.

Kristen Joy Hoadley
The commercial break people. People's Sexiest Man Alive has been announced and it is John Kranzinski.
Christina
Oh yeah, I didn't see that Office.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Fame recently in the reboot of the Patriot Games. But the other one.
Christina
Oh, right, Jack Reacher.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Jack. No, no, Jack Ryan. Jack Ryan, right. I think who I think was in Patriot, like I think he was a character in Patriot Games and he was.
Christina
Also in those scary movies, the Quiet Place.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He was in the any. And he directed those movies too, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah. And he directed a movie called if Imaginary Friends if with Ryan Reynolds. And the kids love that movie. And actually it's not, it's not as great as I thought it might be. Like I had high hopes for that one. It wasn't as heart tugging as I thought it might be. But the kids love to watch it around the house and it's not a terrible movie. I mean, you can watch it. It's not terrible.
Christina
It's a ringing endorsement. You can watch it. It's not terrible.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I'm just telling you as an adult, it's not my favorite kids movie. Okay, but you know, go ahead, watch it. I'll send it to you. I'll say I'll videotape it with my phone.
Christina
Okay, yeah, put it on YouTube.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
That's right. I got a screener. I'll send it to you. But John, while he has is certainly in the lexicon of the American brain and he has become quite the superstar, the Office and all these other things we talking about. Is he the sexiest man alive? Maybe. I don't understand how the female anatomy works. And I don't actually. Let's just, let me rephrase that sentence. I don't understand how the female anatomy works. But why John Krasinski, I mean he's sexy.
Christina
He's a sexy guy. What? I don't know, I mean it's. Those are so. What's the word?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
PR driven?
Christina
Well, yeah, yeah. And subjective, of course. You know.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah.
Christina
So I mean, I guess where I don't even know the determining factor, like what, what is the qualifications?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Your PR agent.
Christina
That's a qualification.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, you're. You're really like. I mean you must be hound the people at people to get on that short list and then you must be, you know, absolutely campaigning them hard to get your client. And I wonder who votes your PR agent? I guess I'm not sure. Or maybe there is some kind of voting that goes on at People. I don't know. I don't pay attention to People magazine, but I do every year. See the Sexiest Man Alive and all that. Right. It just seems to me that like pure sex appeal, I wouldn't give it to John Krasinski. Like I've seen him in a lot of stuff and even in that Jack Ryan, he still manages to be very non threatening to my manhood. Do you know what I'm saying?
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Like I don't look at him and go, holy shit, if Astrid catches this one, she's gonna. I won't find her for two days. She's gonna be in bed.
Christina
Yeah, like Jason Momoa, something like that.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. Or that guy from 50 Shades of Gray, whatever his name is that, you know, Even though that's the dumbest movie in the history of the world and he acts so cardboard in that movie. I get it. I get why women like him. Or that guy who was in. Was that the Motorcycle Gang? You know, on fx, The Motorcycle Gang Show.
Christina
Oh yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Do you remember that one? I don't know what.
Christina
We're so bad.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I came and it went. Yeah, the Motorcycle Gang.
Christina
No, that was one for quite a few seasons. People loved that show.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
FX Motor.
Christina
Once you say it.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Motor Cycle drama, Sons of Anarchy. That's what it was. Sons of Anarchy.
Christina
That was a good show.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, it was a good show. So Charlie Hunam, who was the lead actor in that, like I saw that guy and I was like, thank God that I do not live anywhere near that guy. Because if I. He would just suck up all the, you know, just suck up all the available. I mean he's super handsome. That dude is like, he's very hot. And I get that as a man. I can understand that he's got a certain Gen Sequoia. Even Guru BG can.
Christina
Oh my God. That comes out today.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Whittle my way into that. It does. And I can't wait to watch it. So it just befuddled me that John Krasinski was, like, the sexiest man. Yeah. Again, it's probably PR driven. There's probably a lot of campaigning behind the scenes that goes on. There's no doubt he's a very famous person, but, like, isn't like, Ryan Reynolds and, you know, wasn't he that one year, too? He was. I can get that. I understand that. Ryan Reynolds is a handsome dude. Who's the other guy? Who's the other Ryan? You know who I'm talking about?
Christina
I don't know.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Oh, my God. I'm having, like, a toy.
Christina
I know.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Since I got the surgery, I'm feeling so much better, and I think I'm so much better at recalling things. I can, like, literally feel my brain.
Christina
Being, like, fog lifted.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. But sometimes it's. It still gets stuck. Not Ryan Felipe, though. Whatever happened to Ryan? Ryan Gosling? Ryan Gosling. Whatever happened to Ryan Philippe? What happened to him? Why didn't he turn out to be, like, one of the world's biggest stars? Was he too smarmy for everybody? Was that it? Was he just a little bit too smarmy for everybody? I'm just.
Christina
Now I can't remember.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I can. I remember, like, two movies that he was in, and both times he played, like, you know, rich white kid, you know, gone wrong kind of thing. Thing. And I just felt like maybe he got stereotyped into that. And he also had that weird New England accent that made him sound better than everybody. You know what I'm saying?
Christina
Who is he married to? Because I think they're still married.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Wasn't it. Was it Reese Witherspoon?
Christina
Well, that's what I wanted to say, but was it? Or were they just in that movie?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Is this a whole show about us Googling stuff? I think that's what this has become, a show about old people Googling stuff. We should call it the Google break. Oh, that's.
Christina
Oh, that is him. That doesn't look like how I remembered him, though.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
That's not how. Holy. Ryan. 50 Ryan. Okay. That old Ryan Felipe looks like, I don't know, an old version of George Michael. What happened? Clad in leather.
Christina
He was married to Reese Witherspoon.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He was. And they broke up.
Christina
Didn't they divorce?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah.
Christina
They've got three kids together.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Well, I think, you know, I don't know. I don't know what happened. I.
Christina
Listen, Cruel intentions.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Cruel intentions. That was the one where I remember him being riddy swarmy and. But I do, you know, Reese Witherspoon is a hot catch.
Christina
Oh, God.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Beautiful woman. Damn good girl. Boss. Production and direct and editing and writing and all that other stuff. And she's just been. She's had so like, hit after hit after hit. It's hard to knock Reese Witherspoon. So you got to be a real dum dum to lose that one. I mean, but I don't know. I don't know Ryan at all. And, you know, maybe he's a great guy, but he was the sexiest man. Let's look at the. Let's look at the last 20 sexiest men alive. People magazine. Let's see.
Christina
I feel like Patrick Dempsey was in there at one point. He had to be.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Oh. All 36 people who have been named. You ready? 2024. John Krasinski. Okay. Patrick Dempsey. Yeah. 2023. Who's extraordinarily handsome.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Even at his advantage.
Christina
Exactly.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He's like, what, 54, 55. Chris Evans. 2022. Paul Rudd. Okay. So, you know, there's some precedent for not so sexy men being the name. The sexiest man.
Christina
I remember that year. We were like, why?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Okay. Michael B. Jordan. Super handsome man. John Legend. Okay. All right.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Idris Elba. Very handsome older gentleman. Blake Shelton. Somewhere in between John Krasinski and Patrick Dempsey is Blake Shelton. Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Not my cup of tea. But, you know, there's. I'm not having sex with him. So there you go. David Beckham in 2015.
Christina
Of course, David Beckham.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Chris Hemsworth. Of course, Adam Levine. Remember when people thought Adam Levine was sexy? Yeah. Now he's just a kind of. Now he's pitching acne medication, late night tv.
Christina
I was never a big Adam Levine fan.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I'll tell you when I liked Adam. When he was coming on the Stern show frequently, like, they became friends, and there was something about him that I thought was, like, accessible. He seemed very, like, normal. He had the same problems I had. Even though he was fabulously rich and was dating every victim ever and had so many tattoos. When I'm scared to get, like, a peace symbol on my butt.
Christina
I mean, honestly, civil in your body.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. But I mean, I don't know. I think Maroon 5 could put together a reunion tour at like, Haha's in New England or something like that. They'd be playing the same rooms we were playing, where we were playing. We should have been playing 2012 Channing Tatum. All right. Channing I'll give it up to Bradley Cooper in 2011. Of course, Bradley Cooper. Ryan Reynolds, 2010. I think we can all agree Ryan's a handsome man. Johnny Depp in 2009. Oh, yeah. Like at the height of his powers.
Christina
Yes.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Before he became just like a weird rendition of every character he's ever played. He became. He did.
Christina
He melded into all of it.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, he's like part Marlon Brando, part wax figure, part Madonna, moving in and out of those accents at any moment. Edward Scissorhands. Pirates of the Caribbean, 2008. Hugh Jackman. Now there's a guy I. I really like Hugh Jackman. I really do.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I don't know why.
Christina
Oh, I do too.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I saw that movie that. The Greatest Showman and I couldn't stop singing those goddamn songs for two years. It's like, oh, by the way, it's like one thing my father in law and I actually have in common because there's not much except that we love each other, but him and I can agree, the Greatest Showman is. Is a great soundtrack, just to let you know.
Christina
Okay.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Matt Damon in 2007. Of course. George Clooney gets his due in 2000. Of course. Yeah. I mean, Matthew McConaughey, 2005. Jude Law.
Christina
I like Jude Law.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
You know, I have a renewed appreciation for Jude Law after I watched the Young Pope. The Young Pope is one of the best television shows ever made. I'm sure of it. Go watch it.
Christina
I need to watch that.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
You need to watch it. It's so fantastic. He's so good. 2003, Johnny Depp again.
Christina
Oh, Johnny again.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Well, Johnny's a special kind of good looking, you know what I'm saying? At least before.
Christina
And the different looks.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah.
Christina
So, yeah, there.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He looks grungy in this one and he looked more clean cut in the next one. And then he starts getting that weird shine on his face like he's an actual cigarette is what he looks like. It's kind of cool. Yeah, the non filtered guy. Ben Affleck in 2002.
Christina
Okay, okay.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Pierce Bronson.
Christina
Oh, yeah, okay.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
We can understand that. Brad Pitt in 2000.
Christina
Wow. Does that when it started. They started it.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Brad Pitt, I think. I know it goes back a number of years from that, but Brad Pitt, let's all stop and admire the peach tree dish and the chemists who brewed up the world's most attractive human being.
Christina
It really is.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And Brad Pitt. Yeah. I mean, that guy even gives me a boner. Brad Pitt in his younger years and even now he is just lovely.
Christina
Oh, God. I know back Thelman Louise was when he had his breakout and every woman in the world was like, who is that?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. I mean, but then you can even.
Christina
Fast forward to everything. Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
You know, now Inglorious Bastards and Once upon a time in LA and Once Upon a time in Hollywood, those movies. He is so you want to hate a guy like that when he comes on the scene because just like that guy from Twisters, you want to hate a guy like that because you're going to go, he has no ability whatsoever. All the casting directors just want to him. That's it. That's all the rever, everybody. He's a piece of eye candy. That's it. Just like that guy in 50 Shades of Gray, only he made a movie, an Irish movie that I really liked and he was really good in it. You want to dislike him because you think that he's qualified in no other area except for lovely on your eyes. And I guess when you're making a movie, that's part of what you're looking for, Right? But it turns out Brad Pitt is one of the great actors of our fucking time. He's really good at what he does. But if I have to knock Brad on one thing, if I take him down a peg, a place where I beat him in almost every category is smelling good. Because apparently Brad Pitt does not shower for weeks at a time. It's like that's how he keeps that lovely glow in his skin. I take two hours worth of showers a day, so that's why strip your skin. Yes, I strip my skin. I burn it in the hot, hot shower every day. Richard Gear in 1999. Yes.
Christina
Classic.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Back then, he did not put a gerbil up his ass.
Christina
No.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
For anybody that still thinks that is true, it was a squirrel. 1998. They only get the facts here, kids. 1998. Harrison Ford. Oh, yeah, he's. He was like 50 when he got his first role and he still looked good until about two years ago. Yeah, I mean, and he. I think he's still making movies. I think he said he's gonna make another. Is he gonna make another one of those Star wars movies? Oh, no, he died in the Star wars movies. George Clooney again in 1997. Denzel, 1996. There is something about Denzel.
Christina
Oh, no.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I'm gonna tell you a story real quick. While we're on this. Actually, let me save the Denzel story for the. For the next segment. Remind me to get back to the Denzel story.
Christina
Okay.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Brad Pitt in 1995.
Christina
Okay. Again. Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And well, if you're gonna put. But you know, whoever. Twice. You got to put Brad Pitt twice. And retroactively they named 1994's Sexiest man of the Live alive. Who he got this award in 2015. Thanks, people. Keanu Reeves. And then in 1993, the. The sexiest couple alive was Richard Gear and Cindy Crawford. 1992 is Nick Nty.
Christina
Oh.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Isn'T he like. Is that like what, drunk uncle sexy? Like I don't trust him with my daughters in the same room. Before.
Christina
It had to be before the. The picture. The. The jail picture.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, certainly before the jail picture. Yeah. Nick Nolte is a special kind of person.
Christina
Well, that might. I wonder if that was like the Prince of Tides year.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yes. I think it's 1992. Yeah, yeah. 1991 is Patrick Suise.
Christina
Oh, Patrick.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And I mean, who doesn't love that big ma of hair? Look at that hair on the.
Christina
I loved Patrick.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
How does one human being get that much hair that looks like an unnatural amount of hair to have coming off of one head?
Christina
It might have been.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
It might have been. You never know. 1990 is Tom Cruise. Oh, of course she got a name. Tom Cruz. That's before he started jumping on couches, telling Matt whatever lower that he was. You don't know Matt. You don't know. 1989 is Sean Connery. Who was.
Christina
Yeah, love some Sean Connery.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, I love Sean Connery. I don't know if he's like this, like, as far as I'm concerned, like the sexiest looking man alive, but something about that accent.
Christina
Oh, Bond. Him and bond.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, he was good looking guy in Bond.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
But I think it's the accent.
Christina
The accent, definitely.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. That drops my pants if I'm, you know, if we're having dinner and he starts talking.
Christina
Boxer dropper.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, boxer dropper or a brief dropper. I mean, whatever you're into. Not a nut, hammock. Not like that guy from Love is Blind who was wearing a high, high waisted thong. So weird. I mean, whatever you're doing, but it's kind of weird. 1988 is John F. Kennedy Jr.
Christina
Okay.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. 1987 is Harry Hamlin. Now we're getting into the people. I don't even remember. 1986 is Mark Harmon. Okay. Mark Harmon. He's still around. Wasn't he just. Didn't he just wrap up like 3800 years on CSI every. Every city in the United States?
Christina
I don't know. But I just, I mentioned this to Jeff the other night because there was a commercial for ncis. I'm like, how many, how many, how many?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
There's four versions of it right now and it's. And the first one's been going on for like 10 years. But I think he was in CSI. Something which is different than NCIS, which is different than Law and Order, which is different than Law and more Order. I don't know Law and Disorder. I don't know. That guy Dick Wolf keeps on making every drama under the sun disorder. And that 50 to 75 year old people who are still watching network television just love it. They eat it up. They really do. They eat it up. Mark Harmon, he was not in many things. I mean, he's been, he's been in a number of things, but he was insane elsewhere. Moonlighting. But I think his best turn that I've ever seen him in was not. And it's not driving school. Was it summer school? Wasn't he in some. He was in summer school. That's right. I think his best turn, in my opinion is the three or four episodes he did on the West Wing. He was so good in that show. So good in that show. Mel Gibson is 1985. That's before, right? That's before he started screaming racist things at his own wife on a telephone. Yeah, but now it's even, you know.
Christina
And did he drive off a cliff or something drunk?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
That was Tiger Woods. No, I think you're right. I think, I think he did have an accident. He. Oh, no, that was David Hasselhoff that was eating cheeseburgers while his daughter was.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Filming him. Whatever happened to David? Is he like just laying low? He's laying low probably somewhere in Germany.
Christina
In Germany, I was gonna say. He's huge there.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Love him there. They love. It's like France. And who's that comedian that did the. Jerry Lewis. France. Jerry Lewis is a national icon. In France. In France. And why. I cannot understand.
Christina
They love him.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
They love them. All right, let's take a break and I'll. I'll tell you about Denzel. We'll be back.

Kristen Joy Hoadley
One night when we were doing Sim Call FM, I was at a bar that, that Simon Scambodia owned. You know what I'm talking about? Scam Cole fm.
Christina
Oh yeah, all right.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
So I'm at a bar that he owned down in Buckhead. This, you know, it's one of these bars like a flash in the pan on Friday And Saturday nights, it could. It might be filled with wannabes and people and, you know, whatever. And it's like a Wednesday night, Wednesday or Thursday night, and I'm doing whatever, probably asking for the money that's owed. Anyway, I'm there, right? I'm there. They're filling me with free drinks in the hopes that I go away. And it's like, I don't. 10, 11 o'clock at night. And all of a sudden, like the Secret Service, not kidding, you came in the door and there were. It was like four guys all dressed in black. Big guys, you know, talking to the bartender, talking to the managers, pulling aside the general manager. And I was like, oh, what's going on? And then some of the bar got emptied. Like, half the bar got pushed off to the side. It wasn't a lot of people in. Maybe there was like 30 or 40 people in there, including myself. And there was like this area, they had two bars, one the main bar. And then like this, like, not private bar, but a bar off to the side that they could rope off and make it VIP, I guess. And all of the sudden, two huge SUVs, tinted windows, the whole nine yards. Pulls up and out of the door comes Denzel Washington.
Christina
You saw him in person.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
In person. The guy was big. He was a big guy. Like, he was bigger than I expected him to be. I don't mean fat. I mean like a big human being. He was a big human being in person. So I think when you see him on screen, I don't think you realize what, like, a presence that he has. And then he sat in the corner of the bar talking to another person. And I had just a few minutes of interaction with Denzel Washington. He is just like he is in the movies.
Christina
I can imagine.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
He's like a. A dad and an FBI agent at the same time. That at any moment he could use the skills he has to break your neck in half. You know what I'm saying?
Christina
Yes. And the smooth talker.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
And he's so smooth talking, and he's got that low voice. And I didn't really know what to say to Denzel Washington, except, I love your movies, I think you're a great actor, blah, blah, blah. And he started talking. There was a third person involved in the conversation, which is a guy that was with him. And. And. And then that guy started up another conversation based on a comment that I made. And so, like, this conversation was going on for like two, three minutes. I did not involve myself much in the conversation because I was just like, staring at Denzel Washington. But that voice in real life is like. Cuts you. It's like. It's like a knife melting. But there's something about Denzel's presence that is really energetically amazing. And so when I see Denzel now, let's wrap it back into the Diddy story. When I see Denzel now some people have put out some video clips of Denzel saying, the devil's going to come to get you and make sure you leave the party before the devil comes to get you. Right. He's saying things like this. And in some of these clips, like, in different places, talks that he's giving, like, private speeches. You can tell he's been paid by somebody to give a speech. He's talking to a moderator or something. He's been saying all this, this. And I think to myself is Denzel us essentially the character he's always playing on these movies, like that private security guard that's certainly going to save us all from hell with his smooth voice and his skills to kill anybody at any time.
Christina
I trust him.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I do trust him. I think he's like. He is in that. And what's that movie? The. The one man on Fire. Ever seen man on Fire? The one where he's like, baby, being the security guard for that family down in Mexico City. And then the girl gets kidnapped and he. He's running around Mexico City trying to find her. He's so slick and so smooth and, you know, you feel like when he's talking, certain hell is going to be rained upon. You do you know? And that's how I felt right there. I felt way out.
Christina
Thank you for sharing.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
That was a lightweight in a heavyweight boxing match. Just like Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.
Christina
Follow up to that. I have been watching the show. I'm just second. Second episode. And I don't even know how many episodes there are total, but there's three, I think. Okay. But I've. I've got renewed interest now.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I found myself watching the first. I found myself watching, like, two minutes of the first one, and I had to turn it off when Ice T was talking about, you know, who knows what brings these men together. He's talking about, I don't know, like, the. Some pivotal moment in, you know, man's history. I don't know, it just sounded so fucking overblown and dramatic to me. And I was like, really? You're going to make this like that? Not. It's not just a sporting event, an exhibition event we're all interested in. But I got Past it. You told me to move past it. I got past that. I turned it back on last night and I watched the first episode and I do have to say there is something super intriguing about Mike Tyson. Super intriguing.
Christina
Oh, God, yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, he is. For all we think about Mike Tyson, like, as kind of like a dumb heavyweight boxer. He's really not. No, he's really not.
Christina
There's a lot to that.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
There's a lot of wisdom in the. And. And his eyes are black as night. Did you notice that? He's got like big eyes that are just black. It's so intimidating. You would not want to be a person on the other side of that fight whatsoever.
Christina
I was very interested in the fact that the Jake Paul got the idea to fight him while taking ayahuasca.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I have taken ayahuasca and I gotta be honest, I don't know which version of ayahuasca he was taking that he even had a coherent thought like where Mike Tyson appeared. I don't know about Jake, but I was dying a thousand deaths and there were a lot of other entities involved in that, but it wasn't Mike Tyson. At any point did I see myself rising from the ashes and fighting Mike Tyson and to change world history. But I did like Jake's take on this take on his life. He says, I am just a dumb, normal person who has a lot of delusional optimism. And I believe I can put anything. I believe I can do anything I put my mind to and I can in the butterfly effect is in full effect that I can change the world by my actions. And he's like, but that's easy for, for someone to say that has had such virality. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, yes, correct, Jake. And there's no doubt you have an oversized influence on the social media world and the media world in general. Agreed. And I'm not taking anything away from the hard work that must. The toll that must have taken the hard work work. The blood, the sweat, the tears. We know it, we've been there. The, you know, moments of despair, the.
Christina
Yeah, well, it seemed like he made a change.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Zero dollar paychecks and himself. Maybe, maybe, maybe. But I, he just sometimes when I see him not on this special, he represents a certain kind of energy that I really disdain right now and not going to get into it because I don't want to be preachy, but he's just not my favorite person in the world. Though I did find myself connecting with a few things that he said and I appreciated his outlook online and the fact that he even took ayahuasca made me go, huh? All right.
Christina
Exactly.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. But, you know, I'm sure that.
Christina
Well, I don't. Have you gotten to the part where it shows his girlfriend?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
No.
Christina
Oh, okay. Well, yeah, she's like an Olympic medalist and beautiful and does a lot. And she said the same thing about him because I guess he reached out to her on social media and she was like, eh, don't make me like Jake Paul.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Not make me like Jake Paul. Chrissy.
Christina
Yeah. Yes. I think you might change your team.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I hate. I hate when I change my mind, but I do it all the time. But I hate when I change my mind. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. Listen, I'm still rooting for Mike Tyson because I think it puts a cap on an incredible career and there's only one way. And, and they said it in the documentary and it is so true. If Jake Paul loses. He lost to Mike Tyson. He got knocked out by Mike Tyson. Tyson. It does him no harm. He's still going to be one. He's still going to go down as one of the more interesting figures in sporting and certainly in boxing. If Mike Tyson gets knocked out by Jake Paul, he's going to put a sour note on the end of his career that he got knocked out by an exhibitionist boxer who has some skills. No doubt about it. I was watching him spar.
Christina
Yeah.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
That. Those hands are so fucking fast, Chrissy. Thank God I'm not. Thank God I don't get in fights because I'm so slow. I mean, I'm so slow my kids can punch me faster than I can react. I'm just like, ah. But I still think that if you gave me 10 or 15 million dollars, that I would take one punch from either of them. I would take one punch for 10 or 15 million dollars or I'd be in a relationship with Zach Bryan for $12 million. You know what I'm saying? One of those dudes. One of those dudes.
Christina
Yeah. Yeah. No, I thought we decided that you would not want to get punched by Mike Tyson.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
No, I said that even if you gave me $10 million, I don't know that I would get punched. But I said $20 million. I'm changing it to 15. After seeing Mike, I think he's a little bit nicer. I think he would, like, not give me his full. I think Mike understands that his hands are deadly weapons after all of these years. He knows that. And if, if you've watched any of his fights on YouTube or seen them live like I did a few of them. It's pretty clear that even the biggest, bulkiest, strongest, fastest men in the world have no chance against his fists. Yeah, I think he would go easy.
Christina
It's gonna be interesting.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah. So, Mike, Jake, Paul reached out to you and said, let's fight. You said, let's do it. Good idea. What about punching the host of the commercial break? The 455th most popular podcast in the world one time, 15 million bucks pay per view. Let's do it. I'll do it.
Christina
I think you're going to hear from him.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I highly doubt that. I think, Mike, I think no matter who wins or who loses, these guys are going to be in the ice baths for a couple months. I just hope they put on a good fight.
Christina
I think so.
Kristen Joy Hoadley
I hope this is not one where they can hug each other for two hours.
Christina
Yeah, I think it's going to be a good fight. Are you going to be able to watch it?
Kristen Joy Hoadley
Yeah, I put I'm gonna on my phone. I'm gonna have to watch on my phone and I know I'm not gonna be able to convince my dad to buy Netflix. I just know it. I just know it. I don't need Netflix. I don't do Netflix. I got everything. Can I use your Netflix account? You're already using my Disney plus, Amazon and abc. Why not? No, I'll figure out a way to watch it. I'll. Whatever you call it, I'll screen share.
Christina

Podcast Summary: The Commercial Break - Episode "Sexy Can I"
Hosted by Bryan Green and Kristen Joy Hoadley from Commercial Break LLC
In the "Sexy Can I" episode of The Commercial Break, co-hosts Bryan Green and Kristen Joy Hoadley delve into a mix of relationship drama, pop culture commentary, personal anecdotes, and discussions on current events in entertainment. Skipping over the initial advertisements, the duo transitions seamlessly into engaging and humorous conversations that offer listeners both entertainment and insight.
The episode kicks off with Bryan and Kristen dissecting the tumultuous relationship between country singer Zach Bryan and influencer Brianna Chicken Fry. Kristen provides an in-depth backstory, highlighting how their relationship unfolded and unraveled amid public scrutiny.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [05:34]: "Brianna Chicken Fry starts dating this singer named Zach Bryan... Zach decides to break up with her via social media."
The hosts discuss the public breakup announcement made by Zach Bryan on social media, which came as a shock to Brianna. Kristen explains Brianna's accusations of emotional abuse, particularly focusing on Zach's criticism of her fashion choices during her appearance at the Golden Globes.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [07:47]: "Shaming somebody because of what they're wearing… that's a certain type of emotional abuse."
Kristen and Bryan express their disapproval of Zach's actions, emphasizing the inappropriateness of publicly shaming someone for their attire, especially in a prestigious event like the Golden Globes where showcasing personal style is common.
Further into the discussion, Kristen reveals allegations of Zach Bryan's infidelity, supported by social media evidence and third-party accounts. She also brings up the controversial claim that Zach offered Brianna a $12 million Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) to remain silent about their relationship issues.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [12:46]: "Zach offered Brianna a $12 million NDA to shut up about their relationship. That's a lot of money to turn down."
The hosts debate the ethical implications of such an offer, weighing Brianna's decision to reject the NDA against the backdrop of potential financial security.
Bryan and Kristen transition to discussing People Magazine's annual "Sexiest Man Alive" list. Kristen voices skepticism about the selection of John Krasinski as the latest honoree, questioning whether the choice is driven more by public relations efforts than genuine appeal.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [28:07]: "I don't understand how the female anatomy works. But why John Krasinski?"
The hosts take a nostalgic trip down memory lane, recalling past recipients of the title and expressing personal preferences for other celebrities they find more deserving based on charisma and physical appeal. They mention a range of actors like Patrick Dempsey, Chris Evans, Paul Rudd, and Idris Elba, comparing their own levels of attractiveness and star power.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [35:26]: "John Krasinski. Patrick Dempsey. Yeah. 2023. Who's extraordinarily handsome."
Kristen emphasizes the role of public relations in shaping public perception of celebrities, suggesting that the "Sexiest Man Alive" title may sometimes favor those with strong PR campaigns rather than purely aesthetic appeal.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [29:58]: "It's probably PR driven. There's probably a lot of campaigning behind the scenes that goes on."
In a heartfelt recount, Kristen shares her personal experience meeting Denzel Washington at a bar owned by Simon Cowell in Buckhead. She describes his imposing presence and the profound impact his demeanor had on her.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [50:17]: "I had just a few minutes of interaction with Denzel Washington. He is just like he is in the movies."
The conversation shifts to analyzing Denzel Washington's on-screen and off-screen persona. Kristen likens his real-life presence to the characters he portrays—cool, composed, and exuding an aura of authority and strength.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [52:22]: "That voice in real life is like a knife melting. But there's something about Denzel's presence that's energetically amazing."
Kristen touches upon recent, potentially ominous clips featuring Denzel, where he appears to warn against moral decay, sparking her speculation about his true intentions or messages behind these appearances.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [53:12]: "When I see Denzel now, some people have put out some video clips of Denzel saying, the devil's going to come to get you..."
The hosts express excitement and curiosity about the highly publicized boxing match between legendary heavyweight Mike Tyson and social media sensation Jake Paul. They discuss the dynamics of the fight, the implications for both fighters' careers, and the entertainment value it promises.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [57:28]: "Mike Tyson, Jake Paul. We'll be talking about the results all next week. I am sure it'll be an interesting match."
Bryan and Kristen share their personal opinions on the potential outcomes, with Kristen humorously contemplating taking a punch from either fighter for financial gain or relationship benefits.
Kristen Joy Hoadley [58:25]: "I would take one punch from either of them for $10 or $15 million."
Kristen also predicts the possible career impacts of the fight's outcome on both Tyson and Paul, reflecting on Tyson's legacy and Paul's status as a modern influencer.
As the episode winds down, Bryan and Kristen encourage listeners to engage with their podcast through various platforms, seeking feedback, questions, and comments. They tease upcoming discussions, particularly focusing on the results of the Tyson-Paul fight and invite listeners to stay tuned for more engaging content.
