TCB... A Show About Friendship!

Summary

The Commercial Break – “TCB... A Show About Friendship!”

Hosts: Bryan Green & Krissy Hoadley
Date: January 31, 2025

---

Overview

This episode of The Commercial Break dives deep into what the show is all about—the quirky, self-aware, and sometimes embarrassing realities of making improv comedy as best friends. Bryan and Krissy riff on everything from awkward moments being recognized in public, the declining film industry in Atlanta, celebrity run-ins, their struggles to explain the podcast to “normal” people, and end with a classic “inception” segment: breaking down a dating influencer's reaction video—who himself is reacting to other pickup artists with exactly the same lack of self-awareness the TCB crew lampoons.

As always, the episode is equal parts self-deprecating, meta-comedic, and chaotically off-script—delivering laugh-out-loud banter about internet personas, podcast stigma, and the eternal weirdness of the modern social world.

Main Discussion Points & Segments

1. "What's the Podcast About? It's Friendship."

Timestamps: 00:26, 00:55, 21:54

• The episode opens with Bryan and Krissy joking about the confusion and embarrassment of trying to categorize their podcast, landing on:

  "When people ask me what the podcast is about, I go, it's about friendship."
  — Bryan Green, 00:55 & 21:54

• Krissy summarizes the show’s tone as:

  "It's like sitting in a bar, talking about stuff we always did, but on air now."
  — Krissy, 21:59

• Running joke about the need for a deliberately bland, “office-friendly” episode (“Holding Space") to point new acquaintances to, so they won’t find the show’s more NSFW content.

---

2. Atlanta’s Film Industry: The Boom and the Bust

Timestamps: 02:25 – 06:46

• Bryan details why Atlanta became a film production hub: generous tax incentives, affordable homes, good weather, and initially “naive” locals.

• The hosts discuss how locals caught on to Hollywood’s money, hiking prices:

  "We're no longer a bunch of dumb rednecks out here in Atlanta. Now we're Hollywood tax."
  — Bryan, 04:44

• Shout-outs to big industry players (Tyler Perry, Francis Ford Coppola, Chick-fil-A’s Cathy family), and the “ghost towns” of empty production studios built during the boom.

• Krissy and Bryan share celebrity sightings stories (Owen Wilson, Liev Schreiber & Naomi Watts) highlighting Atlanta's faded novelty for star-chasing.

---

3. “Minor Podcast Fame” and Everyday Embarrassments

Timestamps: 09:16 – 16:28

• Bryan hilariously laments being recognized (once) at a music festival and enjoying “fame” as a Starbucks regular more than as a podcast host.
• The existential anxiety:

  “I am literally embarrassed of what we do here.”
  — Bryan, 16:24

• Krissy insists Bryan “just embrace it.”
• Both detail the social acrobatics required when parents at their kids’ schools discover their podcast identities, dramatizing the struggle to sidestep questions about their "real jobs."

  "That's not my bubble. My bubble is over at the Starbucks."
  — Bryan, 15:16

---

4. The Ongoing Search for a “Safe Episode”

Timestamps: 17:43–20:45; 21:32–22:11

• Krissy relates pressure from friends/partners to feel proud, and the awkward moments when new people want to check out TCB:

  “What is the one [episode] to start off with? And I’m like a deer in headlights.”
  — Krissy, 18:41

• They cook up a scheme for a universally recommendable “Holding Space” episode—comically pitching it as a life-coaching snoozefest laced with platitudes.

  “If we can make it boring enough and if it can just be enough platitudes…”
  — Bryan, 19:41

---

5. Meta-Comedy: Reviewing a Dating Coach Who Reviews Another Pickup Artist

Timestamps: 22:40 – 55:25 (Main segment)

a. Background Setup

• TCB has often mocked dating gurus like “John Anthony Lifestyle” and “Zan Perrion.” They now find John Anthony also doing reaction videos to other pick-up artists—particularly the exact same video the TCB team covered weeks earlier.
• Bryan wonders if John Anthony is “watching” their show for content ideas.

b. The Reaction Breakdown (TCB → John Anthony → Zan Perrion)

• The duo plays clips of John Anthony watching Zan Perrion’s “Masculine Energy” speech and roast both:
  • John Anthony’s fake expertise, overblown video intros, and penchant for cutting to black-and-white “for comedic effect."
  • Zan’s pseudo-mystical dating “advice” and cringey metaphors about “upper and lower masculine energy.”

Notable Quotes:

• "All of a sudden [John Anthony] has decided he is going to break down pickup artist videos too. ...The coincidental thing is just how closely the two of us have broken down those videos together. ...And ours was first."
  —Bryan, 25:17

• On John Anthony’s reaction style:

  "Wow, this guy’s got a little comedy routine falling flat at every turn."
  — Bryan, 31:54

• On pickup artist “techniques”:

  "The amount of knowledge we are gaining just by us breaking down John Anthony breaking down Zan Perrion breaking down how you get a woman is unbelievable."
  — Bryan, 35:35

Memorable moments:

• Repeated mocking of pick-up jargon (“thrusting energy,” “rotation,” “run a date”).
• Taking jabs at both John and Zan for their self-delusion, inflated testimonials, and empty advice, with Bryan and Krissy admitting at least Zan "can bullshit well."
• Bryan ridiculing both men for overcomplicating basic human interaction:

  “Be a normal human being, for God’s sakes.”
  —Bryan, 41:02

• Krissy and Bryan riffing on the need for laugh tracks—and John Anthony allegedly using his own.

---

Top Quotes

• On podcast identity:

  "I don’t know if I want this guy as my CEO. I know it’s my company and I’m hiring myself, but I don’t know if I want myself working for myself."
  —Bryan, 17:19

• On Atlanta’s changing film scene:

  "Now we know exactly what it costs to rent my house. $10,000 a day. I want craft services and a hand shandy by your on site masseuse. No ice penis for me. I want it hot."
  —Bryan, 04:53

• On the endless PUA content cycle:

  "We are in the Inception, children."
  —Bryan, 26:59

---

Highlight Timestamps

• 00:55 – “It’s about friendship”—How TCB defines itself.

---

Tone & Style

• Unapologetically self-mocking, irreverent, and meta.
• Willfully chaotic with inside jokes recurring from previous episodes (e.g., “ice penis”).
• Direct lampooning of internet self-help pseudo-experts.
• Largely riff-based, with tangents embraced as part of the show’s charm.

---

For New Listeners

If you’ve never tuned in: This episode is a perfect snapshot of what TCB stands for—messy friendship, unfiltered real-life anxiety about creative work, and relentless parody of internet culture. It’s less an interview show and more a “comedy hang” you can drop into any time.

“It’s about friendship.” And about not taking yourself—or the internet—too seriously.

Transcript

[Brian Green]

So when you say suck it, what.

Are you telling somebody? It's just a gesture. I mean, it's not like I'm not saying get your head down there and suck it. He's not the only one out there.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

His friends, people you see, you know.

[Brian Green]

You hear them in the stores, everywhere you go. So it's not just him singling out, doing it. So we got a generation of kids yelling, suck it. Yeah.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

On this episode of the commercial break.

[Brian Green]

The episode called Holding Space, you're. You download it, but you're allowed to not listen to it.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

Okay. It's gonna be like a 35 minute show where Chrissy and I are gonna be really low key. I'm gonna change the opening music to some frilly corporate bullshit that I find on some music site, and then it's. We're just gonna Talk lightly for 35 minutes about your inner child.

[Chrissy]

I think it's needed.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. And then we're gonna say, oh, listen, it's about friendship. Take a listen to all this.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

When people ask me what the podcast is about, I go, it's about friendship.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

The next episode of the commercial break starts now.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah. Cats and kittens, welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is the Sanders to my RFK junior, Krista Joy Hoadley. Best of you, Krista.

[Chrissy]

Best of you, Brian.

[Brian Green]

Best of you out there in the podcast universe sketching a little bit of the RFK Jr. What are they called?

[Chrissy]

Confirmation.

[Brian Green]

Confirmation hearing. Wow.

[Chrissy]

You're nothing like your cousin coming out and calling you a predator.

[Brian Green]

Well, there's just a lot to be chewed on when it comes to RFK Jr. But all the Kennedys, I think, are the. Are in the same boat. So I don't want to talk politics on the show, but that is one of the more interesting 15 minutes of television I have watched this year. I will say that. Congratulations, everybody involved in making great TV for the afternoon. It's fantastic. So. So here we are, speaking of predators. Harvey Weinstein says he needs to get a trial quick and get the hell out of this hellh hole. That's what he said to the judge. I need to get the hell out of this hellhole. Oh, I'm sorry, Harvey.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Did we bother you? Did we hurt your little pally whacker? Oh, poor Harvey. Listen, you're getting all your comeuppance, and I think you deserve them.

[Chrissy]

Absolutely.

[Brian Green]

Any of the shit that's. That is correct about you. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

He's got medical problems and all this stuff, but I say keep him in there?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I don't think he's going anywhere. I mean, I think the judge overturned his first conviction for something or other, but then made him stay in jail while they proceeded with the second trial. It's like a technicality or something. And so he said, no, don't go anywhere. Stay there and listen. Innocent until proven guilty. But he was proven guilty. Yeah, there's some technicality. Got him out, got him unguilty. And I think the judge saw through it. So, yeah, Harvey Weinstein, one of the. One of the more shitty people. Speaking of like Harvey and Weinstein in the moviemaking business, I've been talking to a lot of friends here in Atlanta who are not super jazzed about the movie making scene here in Atlanta.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, it's. Well, I was reading something like it's decreased by 40%.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, it's shrunk by 40 or 50% over the last couple of years. I have family that works there. My brother works in the business. We have friends that work in the business. And apparently the word on the street is the reason why Atlanta became such a popular place to film over the last two decades was the tax incentives that were signed into law by our. By our state government here, giving essentially a bunch of tax rebates if you came and you filmed here and you hired locally.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

So for years and years and years, movies could save tens of millions of dollars. You know, percentages off the top by X Factor. And they could do that just by filming here in the city. Also, the weather is nice. You know, we don't have some of the drama that you see out in California. You know, the big studios and the big prices that go along with the big studios. And it costs $1 million to film on Rodeo Drive because they all understand the value and how much money floats around that moviemaking system. Well, the same thing has happened here in Atlanta. I had a friend that is like a, like a site producer, like someone who goes out and looks for sites scout. And he was saying that part of the reason why the Atlanta movie business is getting tougher and tougher is because you used to be able to go to knock on somebody's door and say, hey, I want to film at your house. And they would be like, yeah, sure. They'd be like, well, we'll give you $500 a day. When the going rate in Los Angeles might be like $10,000 a day. They would say, we'll give you $500 a day and we'll make sure everything's cleaned up when you're done. You know, we'll give you a new roof or we'll paint your walls or whatever.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

So.

[Brian Green]

And people would be like, that's great. Fantastic. But now that it's been going on for so long here in the city, it's become very similar in nature.

[Chrissy]

The price.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Everybody understands the value of it. And so now they're. They're no longer. We're no longer a bunch of dumb rednecks out here in Atlanta. Now we're Hollywood tax.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Now we know exactly what it costs to rent my house. $10,000 a day. I want craft services and a hand shandy by your on site masseuse. No ice penis for me. I want it hot. So the business has really taken a knock here in Atlanta, and there's less filming going on here than has been in the previous five or six years, which is not good for the people who work in the business.

[Chrissy]

I know there's been a lot of money spent too, with all the. We've built studios here, too.

[Brian Green]

Huge studios.

[Chrissy]

Tyler Perry, huge. Didn't I Coppola just built a thing.

[Brian Green]

He built like a hotel and a studio and, you know. Yeah, the Tyler Perry studios. And then that guy from Chick fil a, the Kathy. Kathy Truitt. Kathy and his son, they built a huge complex that was bought by the James Bond. What is that? The. What do they call them? What was the studios anyway? James Bond. The company who makes James Bond? The production company. They bought. Bought into that big section. They built whole towns around these huge studios down south of Atlanta. There was a guy that I knew, Ryan Millsap. He built a huge studio here. He took an old Kroger distribution center, like a grocery store distribution center. It was huge. I'm talking like hundreds of acres under roof. And he repurposed it into a studio when Kroger no longer needed the facilities and spent millions, hundreds of millions of dollars. And now they're, you know, some of them are used and some of them are going empty. So we'll see what happens in the Atlanta business. Listen, I also think that Atlanta is a good place to film for a lot of celebrities because it's cheap to get a second home here. It's. It's a rather nice place to live. And we've been seeing so many celebrities for so long, that novelty has worn off. It's, you know, it's like celebrities can come here and not feel super accosted. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

And I remember walking next to Owen Wilson on the beltline like a year ago. I was like, I Have a story.

[Brian Green]

About him that I just cannot share on air.

[Chrissy]

I think you shared it with me because I think I texted you yes, about it when I. Yeah, when I saw you.

[Brian Green]

I have a wild story about Owen Wilson and I love him. Yeah, and I love him and I love his brothers. One of my favorite movies of all time is a movie called Bottle Rocket, which is Wes Anderson's like, second film. It is very much unlike most Wes Anderson films. It's. And it's a story about like, some essentially college kids who think that they're like big time thieves, but they're really not big time thieves. They kind of fuck up everything that they do. But Luke and Owen Wilson star in this movie. And it is just so incredibly touching and funny and brilliantly done, as all most Wes Anderson films are. And Owen Wilson is the star of this movie. He is so fucking good as this guy Dignan in the movie.

[Chrissy]

And.

[Brian Green]

And I used to quote this movie all the time. So I was such a big fan of Owen Wilson. And then A Chance Encounter. And it was wild. I mean, it was just wild. Of course I saw that guy. I wish I could remember his name. But of course I'm not going to be able to remember it now. I was at A Target one time and I. Lev. What's his name? Liev Shriver. Is that Liev Shriver? Okay. Liev Shriver was at the Target with his wife. Who is, who's his wife? This is, this is where, you know, we might need a fact checker here in the studio. Lev. Liev Schreiber. And he is married to Taylor Neeson. He was married to Naomi Watts. That's who he was married to. So I saw him and, and Naomi Watts in A Target here in Atlanta one day. I was like, the. It was like 9:30 at night and I was getting deodorant or something and I was half cocked because I had been drinking at the bar. And I stop at this, at this Target and I'm, you know, in the, like the grocery part. And then there's Liev Driver. And I. Second take and a third take and a fourth take. And I said, hey, you're. You're that guy. And he was like, ah, yeah. Hey, nice to meet you. And so I shook his hand. And then I was like, hey, you're that lady. I had no idea what their names were. And I was like, hey, you're that guy and you're that lady. And they were all just very pleasant about it.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, they're regular people too.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, well, Listen, when I get recognized on the streets, I have to take it in stride. I mean, it's.

[Chrissy]

You can't let it go to your head.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Sometimes it's hard to be out there in public when you have a face that's known so well. When you have a face that's known by over 36 YouTube subscribers, there's a good chance that you're gonna run into somebody that's gonna recognize you. I mean, we. We have over 6,000 Instagram followers, 5,986 of which live in Venezuela. But if I was to go down there and allowed actually in the country. Yeah, I'm sure I would be recognized everywhere on the street. The only place I've ever been recognized is Mempho. Mempho. Of all places, Mempho. Some bartender at Mempho. Yeah, I thought you were putting me on there. Actually, when that bartender recognized me, I thought you were putting me on. I really did. I thought Chrissy put me up to this. But no, I was famous. I was only famous for that one bartender. Because I can promise you, for the rest of the weekend, no one knew who I was. That tent went empty the rest of the weekend. But we had fun, didn't we?

[Chrissy]

We did have a great time. Except when you guys got deathly sick at the end of it.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah, that is right. I do remember that. Yeah, we got violently ill. Yeah, that was a lot of fun. We had a great time. We got. Yeah, we got violently ill and we had to bail on the last day. I was like, I'm sorry. I think we were for half the day. And then I was like the flu or something. We did. And I remember flying back to Atlanta and just not just feeling really shitty. Feeling shitty is one thing. Feeling shitty on an airplane is a different thing altogether. Yeah, and you feel bad that you're getting into an airplane, getting into a plastic tube that. Where everybody is circulating the same air. You really do feel bad. But this is pre masks and, you know, no one wore masks. And what are you going to do? You want to get home? You want to go to your house? So while the best policy would have been just stay in the hotel until I felt better, then get on the plane. Fuck that. I didn't have the money to stay in the hotel, so I had to go. I had to go. The plane ticket wasn't going to get changed. I had to go. Speaking of like being recognized. So I go up to this Starbucks, you know the Starbucks? I go up there all the time.

[Chrissy]

Oh, everybody knows you there, everybody. That's like your cheers.

[Brian Green]

It is my cheers. I don't do a lot of drinking anymore, so when I go up to Starbucks, everybody says, hello, Brian. And it makes me feel good. And it's like one of the few interactions I have outside of the studio on a daily basis. Right.

[Chrissy]

I witnessed it.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

When I went up there with you.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah. And everybody was like, brian, Allison did, too. You know, I went out to lunch or coffee with Allison, and the same thing happened. She's like, you really weren't kidding. Like, everybody does know who you are. And I'm like, yeah, I'm the guy. I show up here every morning. To be fair, there are also lots of regulars where I do see this happening, too. Like, I'm not the only guy that they say, you know, they're just good at remembering names and making people think.

[Chrissy]

They gave us a special drink.

[Brian Green]

They did. What was it, like, caramel frappiato special.

[Chrissy]

Pumpkin spice. Something. Something has foam.

[Brian Green]

Foam. And then I asked for a cup of the foam, and she said, no, I'm not allowed to do that. And I was like, even for Brian? Even for Brian.

[Chrissy]

For Brian, not for me.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. So I go up there the other day, and there's this girl. But by the way, I have never been asked. I have never said what I do for a living. Never. Right. So it's my little place. It's my little safe house. I don't have to talk to anybody about what I do. No one has to. I don't have to worry that anyone has heard what I've said on the commercial break.

[Chrissy]

Good. When you walk in.

[Brian Green]

Smells good.

[Chrissy]

Are so friendly.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. They know exactly what I want. The drink is usually ready. The usual. That's right, the usual. Yes. Get me highly caffeinated. So I get anxious and then go on air, please. That's what I want. Whatever that is. Give me that. So it's my little. It's like a little bubble. I don't have to worry about it. Like, we go to this, you know, event at one of the schools the other night, and I very much worry that there's that because our information is available to most of the parents.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

Like, there was an email sent around a couple of weeks ago, and the email accidentally revealed, like, cc'd everybody instead of BCC ing everybody. And so what's the first thing that you do? You Google everybody's extension. Like, oh, he works at Axe Tocom. What's axe.com. dot com. Right. He works at Tiddlywinks, you know dot org. Let me see what that is. Right. It's just one of those things that I think everybody gets curious about and get curious about and you go start stalking people. That's what we do in the day of the Internet. Fuck you. Okay, so that sounded like a. That sounded like a 10 pound bomb went off. And that was just my phone dropping on the floor.

[Chrissy]

They're heavier than you think.

[Brian Green]

I know. Well, it's also this hollow table picks up any noise in the entire house, so. But I also know that this works both ways. So now I know not only. And I know that they probably did their research before we even got to the school, that, you know, people are just whatever, they're nosy. But then I also know that now that everybody's email extension has been sent out there, that probably a good chunk of the parents understand who we are or what we do.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

So I go there and I feel a little bit uncomfortable.

[Chrissy]

It's the TCB one.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Don't ask me, don't ask me. Don't ask me. It was a mistake to leave that one to give that one in the first place. But I did. I didn't think it was gonna go out public. You know, I didn't think it was gonna go out public. And if the administrators of the school know, well, then they know, whatever. But you know all the parents.

[Chrissy]

Anyway, your secret's out.

[Brian Green]

Yes. So now my bubble is burst. Now I don't feel, you know, I. I quickly move through conversations. I move from one parent to the next so I don't have to answer any questions. You know, I know how to do this dance.

[Chrissy]

You do a podcast?

[Brian Green]

Yes. Hey, I noticed that you do a podcast. No, no, no, not me. No. That was a long time. That's my twin brother, does the podcast. I work for the podcast. I'm. I'm actually the guy who's telling him not to say all that crazy shit.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

So that's not my bubble. But my bubble is over at the Starbucks. So I go in the other day and I'm having just a light conversation about television shows. A subject that comes up, right? It's something you talk about with strangers. Television shows comes up and one of the girls behind the counter goes, you know what I love? You know, I'm watching, I'm watching Severance. You ever seen it? I go, oh, that gets me started, right? I'm like, oh, I love Severance. So great. It's all good. And I go, I actually had a chance to Work with, you know, to do some work for the severance, new severance podcast, blah, blah, blah, blah. So I don't think much of it. It's just conversation. I don't say what I do. I'm not even really thinking about what I'm saying. I just said that I was excited to do this, to do some work with the severance podcast. So then this morning, I go in there, same young lady, and I think that she may have caught on to what's going on because of what I said. And so now I feel like my bubble has burst a little bit. I'm no longer safe in this Starbucks. So I'm going to have to find a different coffee shop to go to. I'm going to leave everybody at that coffee shop because I don't want anybody at the next coffee shop to know what I'm doing. Do you know what I'm saying, Chrissy? I am literally embarrassed of what we do here.

[Chrissy]

No, just embrace it. Just embrace it.

[Brian Green]

I embrace it and I'm embarrassed. I know I embrace it when I'm not talking to people, but when I'm talking to people, I'm embarrassed.

[Chrissy]

I know the feeling.

[Brian Green]

I know it's a hard thing to get over. I know we've touched on this. You know, I don't know. We probably had this conversation ten episodes, but I'm. I'm visiting it again because every time one of these things happens, then I start to feel that sense of, like, how exactly do I tell someone what I do where they won't know the name of the show so they can never hear about all of the shenanigans I have decided to yap about on this silly fucking show? How do I do that? That it's clear I'm never getting another job? I get that part. I'm okay with that. I've embraced that part. I'm not getting another job unless I create that job for myself, where even I will be suspicious of my own resume. Well, should I hire? Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if I want this guy as my CEO. I know it's my company and I'm hiring myself, but I don't know if I want myself working for myself.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

You know what I'm saying? Like severance. I think I need to be severed. I think I need to have two different employees. Right. But there's this sense of, you know, I don't know, nervousness, disgust about everything that I've done here on the commercial break. I'm feeling kind of A clem. I'm feeling a bit.

[Chrissy]

I have to say, I was at a party on Saturday night with someone that we both know. You know, it was a birthday, and her friend was introduced to me. And of course, it always comes around. What do you do? And, you know, Jeff pipes in. He's proud. Yeah, he is.

[Brian Green]

Shut up, Jeff.

[Chrissy]

Doesn't Astra do the same thing sometimes?

[Brian Green]

Well, she knows that I feel a certain way.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

And so she has also taken your and, like, Jeff's road. She's like, we should be proud of it.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You should feel good about what you're doing. And I'm like, talking about ice penis. Is that really what you want me to feel good about?

[Chrissy]

She was like, I really want to listen to the show. You know that everybody says the same thing. Of course. Let me check it out. And that's when I start backpedaling.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, me too. You know, I don't exactly know where to find it. I'm gonna. Give me your number and I'll text you how you find that.

[Chrissy]

So she subscribes and she's like, what is the one to start off with? And I'm like a deer in headlights.

[Brian Green]

It's like, not ice penis.

[Chrissy]

Which one? I was like, this is actually a good exercise for me to have one in my back pocket that we can at least please feel good.

[Brian Green]

You know what? This is a good idea. This is a good idea that you and I should do an. Absolutely. In this tone of voice episode where we just talk about clean.

Yeah.

Where we talk about TV shows or something. The benefits of therapy. Yeah, that's what we should do. The benefits of therapy. We should do it like a life coaching episode.

[Chrissy]

Life Coach.

[Brian Green]

Listen, text me 212-433-3822 if you would be okay if we just put out one episode where Chrissy and I can point to that episode for anyone. Because if we can make it boring enough and if it can just be enough platitudes and you know.

[Podcast Announcer]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Where somebody's like, bullshit. Okay, well, not for me.

[Brian Green]

Same shit I hear from every other podcaster. Right? Life coaching shit. If we could just do one episode. If you actually. Not even one episode. Just give us 30 minutes, because no one makes it past minute number 10 when you're talking about platitudes. Do you know what I'm saying? Just let me rehash some old Jay Shetty shit. I'll put it out here, and that way Chrissy and I can say, you know what? You should start off with.

[Chrissy]

Start with that one.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Start off with Holding Space. It's the name of the episode. Episode number 333. It's Holding Space. It's a great representation of what we do here. And I'll be like, well, Chrissy, I was fighting with my inner child this morning. I had a bad dream and I had to get up and I really had to hold space for myself. I had to take a walk and tell myself that my inner child is okay and that just keep going, things will get better, and we'll just keep on going like that.

[Chrissy]

Forgive yourself.

[Brian Green]

Let's take a phone call from a listener and then we'll. I'll have. I'll like. I'll be the listener. We take a phone call from. I'll change my voice and I'll be like, I love you guys. You've been so. You've. You've helped me out in so many situations. Thank God you're here.

[Chrissy]

I like this idea.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I do, too. All right, we're gonna have to do this. Sorry. It's because we're embarrassed of what we do. We're not embarrassed of you, the listener. We're embarrassed for ourselves.

[Chrissy]

Thankful for you.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, we're thankful for you. We want you to stick around. It's the other people we worry about. It's the people at Starbucks that I'm worried about. Really.

[Chrissy]

It's the. Yeah, it's the showpiece.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Somebody's onto me. I feel it. I can sense it. I just got a different look today, and I was like, oh, what did I say? What did I do? You also got to understand after 800 hours of this fucking show, sometimes you're gonna say things maybe. Yeah. That you just don't mean. You just like. You're just saying it to say it's. And. Yeah. Okay. All right, so episode. The episode called Holding Space, you're. You download it, but you're allowed to not listen to it.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

Okay. It's going to be like a 35 minute show where Chrissy and I are going to be really low key. I'm going to change the opening music to some frilly corporate that I find on some music site. And then it's. We're just going to Talk lightly for 35 minutes about your inner child.

[Chrissy]

I think it's needed.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. And then we're going to say, oh, listen, it's about friendship. Take a listen to all this.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

When people ask me what the podcast is about, I go, it's about friendship.

[Chrissy]

That's What I say, I still say the old. It's like I sitting in a bar talking about stuff we always did, but on air now.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

Ice penis.

[Chrissy]

Ice penis.

[Brian Green]

I just can't get over saying, I don't know. Ice penis sounds good to me. I like it. I like ice penis. Okay, listen to the ice penis episode. Skip the holding space episode. All right, let's do this. Let's take a break. When we get back, I got a good one for you today. I think that we, you know, they say that imitation is the highest form of flattery, right? I think we have been imitated, and by imitated by someone we have imitated many times.

[Chrissy]

We're about to go Inception.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, we're going to the third level of Inception with you. We get back John Anthony Lifestyle reviews. Zan Perrion almost, in the words of the commercial. Commercial break. Reviewing Zan Perrion as John Anthony Lifestyle. We'll take a break. We'll be back.

[Podcast Announcer]

One of my New Year's resolutions is to hear more of other people's drama. So help a girl out and tell us your drama at 212-433-3822. You can text it or if it's extra juicy, leave us a voicemail with the full story. And don't forget to follow us on Instagram at the commercial break and on TikTok at. And watch our video [e-mail] the commercial break. But also, you can find everything I just mentioned and more on our website, tcbpodcast.com okay, let's listen to our sponsors and send us your drama.

[Brian Green]

All right. And we're back. I was just reading that Limp Bizkit had sued Universal claiming that they had never received any royalties ever for the music that they produced and that they. That they withheld royalties in the hundreds of millions of dollars. And so Limp Bizkit wants out of their contract so that they can go sell their music independently or whatever they want to do with it. And then the Universal music filed a motion to dismiss, and then the judge partially dismissed the lawsuit. So that's crazy. I mean, I don't. There's nothing. Limp Bizkit is not my thing. Never was my thing. But I do have to say this is that Limp Bizkit probably sold a couple albums.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Or hundreds of million. I mean, not hundred. They probably made hundreds of millions.

[Chrissy]

Well, back in the day for sure. What. How is this coming out now?

[Brian Green]

Well, I guess, you know, they did some, I don't know, some kind of accounting and said, hey, where's all the money, Right. And that Universal Music just didn't never pay them any royalties. I find that hard to believe. Like, after 30 years, all of a sudden you realize the royalties are missing. You didn't think that check would show up before now. Yeah, and maybe that's part. I don't know why the judge granted the dismissal, but maybe that's part of it anyway. The music business is a hot mess. You know who else is a hot fucking mess? John Anthony Lifestyle's a hot fucking mess. Now here, follow the bouncing ball, if you would, please, children. Chrissy and I found Zon Perignon. Zon Perign, whatever his name is. Perryong Parry. He's part Italian, part Asian. Don Parangyong. We found him because of the 21 convention, a place where we have found a lot of pickup artists. And we decided to. That we're just going to review some of the content that's going on at the 21 Convention, which is always a hoot and always just a bunch of.

[Chrissy]

Always a good time.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, it's always a good time. It's always a bunch of yahoos talking about yahoo shit, trying to convince other guys, a few in the audience, that they too can get laid at any moment if they just follow these 10 steps. Never giving any information that would clearly lead to you getting in an actual relationship. It's like, this is how not to get into a relationship is usually how it goes. So, you know, if you listen to the commercial break, you know, so we find Zahn in this buried video in the 21 Convention. And we have also done videos about John Anthony and John Anthony Lifestyle, who is another pickup artist who all of a sudden has decided he is going to break down pickup artist videos, too. So get this. John Anthony Lifestyle pickup artist breaking down Zon Perignon's pickup artist videos. The coincidental thing is just how closely the two of us have broken down those videos together. The exact same video, within two weeks of each other. And ours was first. Now I have a suspicion, a suspicion like I do about a lot of things, and I'm probably wrong about all of them. But I have.

[Chrissy]

You've been right about a couple.

[Brian Green]

I've been right about a couple. I do have a suspicion that John may know that we have broken down his videos and he may have been keeping an eye on our videos. And now he decided that since we broke down the Zon video, it was fit for King, just like him to break down also. So now I present to you, if you follow this bouncing ball, the commercial break. Breaking down John Anthony Lifestyle breaking down Zahn Perignon in this style of the commercial break. We are in the Inception children.

[Chrissy]

Yes, we are.

[Brian Green]

Here we go. Wow, he has really upped his game. Yeah, his intro's trash, but it's better than when we first started doing it.

[Chrissy]

Oh, yeah, he does definitely.

[Brian Green]

He's definitely up his intro. He is now like a full podcaster. He's got the same microphones we do. It's got the same microphone stands we do. He's breaking down the same videos we are.

[Chrissy]

Like you said, imitation's the best form of flattery.

[Brian Green]

Form of flattery. But the difference is John has about 250,000 more subscribers than we had. So good. So you one on us, John, you have one up on us.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

What's up, guys? Jon Anthony here from John Anthony Lifestyle. In today's video, we're gonna be reacting to.

[Brian Green]

I love how he's in a studio, and the studio, the huge picture behind him that's in full board is just some woman's naked ass.

[Chrissy]

Lovely from the back. Yeah.

[Brian Green]

You know what you're getting with John Dan Perrion?

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

The masculine energy of men who women adore. This is a clip from his Talk at the 21 Convention, which is a failing convention that is now ending the failing convention.

[Brian Green]

Convention. We talked about the same thing.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Anthony Johnson's fucking insecure loser is putting an end to that convention. There will be no more good riddance. Okay, when I spoke there in 2021, there were more.

[Brian Green]

Oh, when I spoke 2021. Good written. Well, to be fair, there's a few conventions I've spoken at too, where I clearly didn't want to be a part of it.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Speakers, then attendees. You can believe that.

[Brian Green]

I can believe it.

[Chrissy]

Oh, we can believe it.

[Brian Green]

I believe it. Yeah, we know.

[Chrissy]

They never pan to the audience.

[Brian Green]

That's right, they don't. Sometimes they'll get a couple of the heads in the front row.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

And it's clear that there are many empty seats.

So powerful. I tried to write about the energy of man who women adore. They get a free pass. I tried to write about what is it? What do they have? What is the qualities that they have? What is the spirit that.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

The qualities that snap, snap, snap, snap.

[Brian Green]

Snap, snap to it. What are these qualities? Give them to me.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Jean Perignon, man has that women adore.

[Brian Green]

And, you know, if you. If you. If you. If you start from.

What's that?

[Chrissy]

That's all he said.

[Brian Green]

That's all he said. He's break. He's. He goes light touch here we go heavy touch. He goes light touch.

Two different styles here, which is the center of gravity is a man here. I don't really think about chakras, but if you do, imagine your center, whatever chest.

I remember this video. I remember doing it. Yeah, you're.

[Chrissy]

I don't know anything about chakras, but.

[Brian Green]

I don't know anything about chakras, but there's something right here and there's something right here. I got indigestion.

Our chakra.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Here comes the woo. Woo.

[Brian Green]

You start from an energy force from here. As a man, okay, this isn't. This is incredibly important.

John. John, you are doing the exact same thing. Rapping, like, telling every other pua that their pua style is bad, but yours is any better is certainly the kettle calling the pod black for sure. But you, you like throwing the entire baby out with the bathwater here. Because largely your shit is based on the same fucking tired, you know, semi pseudo scientific bullshit that every pickup artist uses. And you claim that you've bedded 4,000 women by using your system quote unquote, which is to have to rotate in and out 17 women at any given night, which is horseshit unless you're paying for them, which we figured out you were.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

It's like a Tyler Durden seminar. Okay, Owen Cook.

[Brian Green]

All right, guys, so you're gonna have this little center here, okay? This powers derived. Okay, guys? Hi, I'm John Anthony Lifestyle. I'll be here all week.

[Chrissy]

Why did he turn it to black and white?

[Brian Green]

I don't know. It's an interesting editing choice, right? Yeah.

Start from here. Like this. Your energy as a man moves out into the world from here. And it goes up and out. It goes like this.

Up and out. Just like puke. Up and out. Just like the. Just like these sad, searing acids in your stomach when you have bad diarrhea. Up and out, Chris. Up and out. Just like your G is up and out.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

The amount of woo woo nonsense bullshit that goes around the community is astounding. Right? Look at this guy with his little fucking belt and his little bracelets here and his rings. The energy starts here and it goes out like this. Okay, guys, make sure you write that down. Sounds like the fucking dork from the. The Fearless man with Brian Begin. He sounds like that guy too.

[Brian Green]

He's like, yeah, you guys are gonna.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Have this little energy inside you. It's like, Jesus Christ. We'll put that video in the end screen, by the way, in case you want to check that out and laugh your ass off.

[Brian Green]

Wow, this Guy's got a little comedy routine, falling flat at every turn. Yeah, it's really bad.

It's a beautiful masculine energy. This is you being charming, being humorous, being inviting, being gracious. This is you saying, would you like some more wine? This is you saying, hey, can I get your coat for you? This is you telling a joke. And this is you. Hey, guys, nice to meet you. This is a great, beautiful, upper energy masculine beauty.

I guess breaking down the videos consists of him laughing at everything that Zahn says.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, it is. And then going to black and white.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, going to black and white for effect. Anytime you put black and white on a laugh, you know you're getting a laugh. Chrissy. Yeah. Hey, Marco, our video editor. Marco, Black and white here, That down.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

This is you asking her if she wants more wine or if you can hang her coat up in your great masculine beauty. See, this is the problem with the vast majority of advice on dating.

[Brian Green]

Here comes. Here comes a token of knowledge.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, what the fuck are you talking about? Let's be real here. What the fuck is he talking about? How would this translate into getting better with girls or running a better interaction? Okay, I'm in the interaction. Zan Perrion told me that it all comes from here. And so I'm just gonna let it all flow. The great masculine energy, the beauty, the nice things. It's woo woo nonsense. It's like feel good, mental.

[Brian Green]

Good. Fuck. Did he say anything meaningful there?

[Chrissy]

No.

[Brian Green]

Did you hear anything that made any sense there?

[Chrissy]

No.

[Brian Green]

Was there one bit of wisdom that he gave that Zan Perignon? It didn't. At least Zahn's trying masturbation.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Like when you listen to this, you're like, oh, cool.

[Chrissy]

What do you say about masturbation?

[Brian Green]

I don't know. He says, it's. I don't know, I'm. I'm already lost here. I don't know why we're breaking down this video. No, I don't know why he's breaking down this video in this manner.

Arm, empathy, sympathy, humor. All these beautiful qualities of man comes from here and moves on to the world. Imagine you're on a job interview. Everything about you is high. You're sitting across the table from the interview. Yes, I did.

Imagine you're in a job interview, raging hard on you. Got a hot girl behind the desk and you let out, you go, you go up and out, up and out. Yes. Don't show your boner. Don't show your boner.

Don't show your boner. Listen, even your eye contact is high. You can feel it, right? You're like lifting. You're straight up as an arrow like this. And you're like, yes. And yeah, and then I did this. And yeah, and everything is high energy. And it's a beautiful energy. It's a beautiful masculine energy.

Jersey you honest.

[Chrissy]

He does it every time.

[Brian Green]

He does it every time. He laughs. I got. I know this guy, this. This podcaster who literally cut his laugh and he'll drop it into his own show like a laugh track. I know what he's. I know he's doing it. I know for sure he's doing it. And it cracks me up every time. I'm like, you're putting your own laugh track, which is yourself, into your own show. It's kind of weird.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Bro, job interview. So, son, tell me about some of your past roles at past companies. Okay. My eye contact is high, Whatever that means. My energy is high. Beautiful, masculine.

[Brian Green]

Woo.

Woo.

Bullshit.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Call a spade a spade here. What the fuck is he talking about?

[Brian Green]

Wow, there is like, he's.

[Chrissy]

He's out for Zaun.

[Brian Green]

He's out for Zahn. But the amount of knowledge that we are gaining just by what? Just by us breaking down. John Anthony breaking down Zahn Perrion breaking down. How you get a woman is unbelievable. Michael Anthony. John Anthony. Michael Anthony.

[Chrissy]

Michael Anthony Hall.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Michael Anthony Hall. Oh, wait, isn't Michael Anthony from Van Halen? Isn't that the bassist from Van Halen?

[Chrissy]

I don't know.

[Brian Green]

Am I right about that? I think I'm right about that. Anyway, like, the amount of knowledge that we are getting from John Anthony, he clearly providing any. He's not providing here. He's just laughing at Zahn, which is what we did.

[Chrissy]

But we are not claiming to be the dating coaches.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, we're actually talking about what Zahn is saying. Yeah, we're not the dating coaches. That's right.

Okay, now imagine from the same center of gravity here, your same heart originating place.

[Chrissy]

Zahn, it is funny.

[Brian Green]

From the same place where all your blood goes a couple times a minute from that hard place, that hard thing.

There's an equal counterbalancing energy that is necessary to be a man.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Yin and yang, bros.

[Brian Green]

This is an energy that goes down.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

It's called taking a. No, what you need to know.

[Brian Green]

Okay.

[Chrissy]

Oh, and then he pops up the free 30 min.

[Brian Green]

Strategy call. Click the link below.

[Chrissy]

Strategy call.

[Brian Green]

How.

How good must your business be if you're doing 30 minute strategy calls on your Quick, quick. You know, I tried to get him to. I tried to do this, but it didn't work.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Is how to set up your Tinder profile. What to message on Tinder, what to text. How to set up dates. Okay. What to do if she cancels or reschedules or flakes. How to walk up to girls in public and take them home. Or get dates set up.

[Brian Green]

How to. How to walk up to girls in public and take them home. I dare you, bro. I dare you to show us how that works.

[Chrissy]

Well, he tried, remember back in the original I. The first one maybe that we ever broke down with him in Brazil.

[Brian Green]

Him in Brazil.

[Chrissy]

That's right. They, you know, he had the tag team thing of the girl at the mall.

[Brian Green]

He brought a girl home from like, you know, I don't know.

[Chrissy]

It was like one of those kiosks.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

In the mall.

[Brian Green]

It was a kiosk in the mall. Like a get your ear pierced here kind of thing.

[Chrissy]

And he asked her if she wanted to come over to like. But he used Brazil.

[Brian Green]

She convinced the girl to come back to the house. And then it didn't work out in his favor. But he tried. He pulls tail.

[Chrissy]

He's got more in rotation.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Run your date.

[Brian Green]

17 in rotation at any given time. Wasn't it 17 didn't.

[Chrissy]

That was your funnel full.

[Brian Green]

Keep your funnel full.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

It's how to close your dates, how to keep the ones you want. That's exactly what I teach on my week program, which is industry leading with over 1250 testimonials.

[Brian Green]

The industry leading with over 1250 testimonials from who? John?

[Chrissy]

We looked at those.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

They weren't quite right. Testimonials.

[Brian Green]

I mean, they're testimonials in a sense, but who's testifying is the. Is the question. Yeah, Right.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

I know more details about it and the pricing and options. You can book a free 30 minute call with the link in the description or pinned comment.

[Brian Green]

It's low on the floor. It vibrates.

It rolls across the floor like a smoke machine just waiting to pounce on any pussy that comes our way.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

You have energy, bros, coming from your center of gravity. Gravity going down into the floor and you can feel it vibrating. You imagine guys in the crowd like.

[Brian Green]

I'm funny. I have a laugh a minute.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Taking notes on this dog.

[Chrissy]

Like shaved into the head.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, he's got a part shaved into the head. That's a new thing the kids are doing. Shaving a line into your head because the part in your hair has quite matured.

Things about his. Lower. Your voice is lower. Everything's lower. This is your sexual desire. Ooh. Which in the west is a bad thing. Toxic, you rapist.

Whoa, hey, settle down. Zahn.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Right now, he's gonna make.

[Brian Green]

Am I right?

Am I right? Everybody's a rapist when they've got that lower penis energy.

This is you wanting to bend the world over. This is you seeing a heart shaped ass. I like this.

A heart shaped ass. Heart shaped acid, bending it over. Zan, what are you teaching us? Okay, I'm on John Anthony's side on this one. What exactly are you teaching us? To just grab it? Do you want us just to bend it over to thrust right into her? What are you talking about?

Like that. That's your. It's. And I tell you this, it's. It's given to you by God.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Now not only have we learned that there's energy that comes up and is beautiful, but there's energy that goes down and causes vibrations. And it's given to you by God. Now you're much better off.

[Brian Green]

You fail God, women, men, society, everything. When you, like, block off that energy, which we all do, our Western society has been taught.

Well, yeah, if you're gonna block off that attacky nature that men have to like grab a woman's apple ass. John, you're not teaching these guys anything that they really need to know. I mean, I agree with John Anthony here. This is all a little woo woo bullshit, right? Your energy, your thrusting energy is not getting you any closer to a solid relationship with a woman. That's not gonna happen. But I promise you, promise you that John Anthony Lifestyle's 30 Minute Strategy Coaching call is also not gonna get you any closer to getting laid. This is all horseshit. Be a normal human being, for God's sakes. All right, let's take a break. We'll be back.

[Brian Green]

Bye. And back here with John Anthony Lifestyle breaking down Zon Perry on the commercial break doing the same thing to John. I think it's a little confusing, but try and keep up. We've already broken down this on Parry on video. It's somewhere I forgot. Oh, the thrusting in nature of man is the name of the episode. I now I remember it probably in the three hundreds. I think it's the first video we did of Zahn. I think we did a better job than John Anthony did because all John Anthony seems to be doing is just laughing at Zahn, promoting his own, pitching his own strategy course.

Eyes front, respectful. Don't have any kind of this sexual energy at all. And it's wrong. It's wrong.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

You want to embrace that sexual energy. Otherwise you've failed God according to Zan Perrion.

[Brian Green]

And what do you say, John Anthony? And what's your strategy?

[Chrissy]

What say you?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, what say you? PUA man?

Sexual energy that moves on to the. It's like. It's kind of like bass that flows in the floor. Boom, boom, boom. And women can feel it. It. They can feel it when they're energy in the energy of a man who has that sexual vibration that floats on the floor. But here's the key.

Dragging on the floor. Your dick just dragging on the floor. Ice penis, if you don't mind. Yes, yes. See what happened when that guy tried to get down on the floor with his energy. He got stuck on the cement and by his poor penis. Yes.

And here's the key. You need both. Both energies. If you're only this upper energy guy which all the dating advice out there, all the mainstream media, how to be more human.

Mainstream media. What is mainstream media getting in on the PUA game.

How to take Toastmasters. How do we tell a joke? How to be more. Tell stories.

Toastmasters. What is it? 1962 Toastmasters. Actually I had a friend that just completed a Toastmasters course, apparently. Yeah, that teaches you how to speak in front of people without Teaches you how to give a toast without totally flipping your fucking balls.

Storytelling. How to be more interesting. How to be what a girl would take a girl on a date is all. All of the instruction for men is how to be More of this nice guy upper energy. If you're only upper energy, when you say to a girl, hey, I like you. Would you like to go for coffee? And she says, I have a boyfriend. You're top heavy and you fall over.

[Chrissy]

Humpty Dumpty.

[Brian Green]

Humpty Dumpty had a big fall. Humpty Dumpty fell on his balls.

But I didn't mean anything by it.

Humpty Dumpty had a big fall. Humpty Dumpty forgot he had balls.

Anything by it. He didn't. You. I have a boyfriend. Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know he had a boyfriend. You're sorry because she had a boyfriend?

You're sorry you tried to verbally sexually assault a woman with her apple ass?

[Chrissy]

Zahn's trying to get hard, and not in that way. But, yeah, he's trying to be tough.

[Brian Green]

I think Zahn's been trying to get hard for a long time. Why am I so soft in the middle now?

Okay. I respect that. And I'm doing my job as a man. So this upper energy is what's being taught. This is why we have a generation of nice guys.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

So his upper energy is code for platonic nice guy, I guess. And his lower energy, which was given to us by God, is like embracing the fact that you like girls and you're attracted to girls and sexualizing. I guess it's just such a dumb way to, like, try to paint this stuff. Imagine you're a guy and you're trying to fucking follow this. You're like, okay, my top energy is black and white.

[Brian Green]

Here we go. Black and white for effect. Used by all the great filmmakers. I might want to remind you for Francis Ford Coppola, Scorsese. Scorsese, Spielberg, John Anthony Lifestyle.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

In Toastmasters. And I need to embrace my lower energy that's going down. That the girls feel like vibrations and bass. It's insane. Like, I've wasted so much of my adult life here looking at these gurus and quotes, okay. And pointing out how everything they're saying happens to be okay if you.

[Brian Green]

You are one of these human beings.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

We also have wasted a lot of our life watching you try and convince us that you can pull any girl in the world, when, in fact, the uglier secret might be that you're paying some of them.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Watch this, like, without. Without a critical mind. You're like, oh, cool. Like others, these. These diverging energies, and they come together and in harmony and symbiosis.

[Chrissy]

He keeps dropping in his own laugh track.

[Brian Green]

I think so, too. Actually, I was just gonna say the same thing. I think there is a laugh track. Yeah, and when he does it, there's always that, you know, he's always panning in on himself. Why do we need to see you close up laughing? Marco, get this shot. Now just drop that in whenever I say something funny. Thanks.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

And the key to getting girls is just to embrace that lower energy. More like, what the fuck is he talking about?

[Brian Green]

In your basement suite playing World of Warcraft, not going out and meeting girls. Or you're being taught upper energy things, which are good things, but if they don't have the counterbalance of that beautiful lower thrusting energy.

Thrusting energy.

[Chrissy]

Beautiful lowing.

[Brian Green]

Beautiful lowing thrusting energy. Don't you love it, Chrissy, when some strange man with a beer belly comes.

[Chrissy]

Up dragging his balls down, dragging his.

[Brian Green]

Dick across the floor? His old man Harry T's just. Just coming out the bottom of his pant leg and he starts banging his hip on your ass.

That's spanking energy.

If you don't have that, you need.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

The thrusting and spanking energy. Bros. God is depending on you.

[Brian Green]

Then you're a nice guy. Women are dating nice guys and men are learning, okay, how to go down on a woman, how to her anatomy. They're reading all these books.

I can almost hear the gears grinding inside of John Anthony's head. It's like I look at him and I just hear.

[Chrissy]

John or Zahn?

[Brian Green]

Both.

[Chrissy]

Both.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. I think Zahn. At least he's a good bullshitter, right? He's got a flow. He's got something going on up there. I don't agree with any of it, but he's got something going on up there. He knows how to talk, right? John just laughs and like, you can see, it's like he's mouth breathing. He's trying to figure something out.

Programs and like, how to please a woman. How to massage her with right oils and candles for the right. They're pleasing women. The women say, I want that guy. Yeah, sign me up. No, you don't. You don't want that guy. Guy goes down to you for 45 minutes. You could get yourself off in two minutes with your fingers.

Well, thanks for pointing that out. Now none of us have a chance. Zahn, listen. Every woman already knows this, Zahn. They. Some may enjoy having a sweaty, hairy man on top of them. Some may just do it because that's part of the game. Some say I occasionally enjoy having sex with a man. They. Everybody knows, and men too, that it's much easier to get yourself off than have somebody else do it. It. But occasionally it's fun to make it a two player game. It's just like Nintendo Switch. Occasionally it's fun to do a two player game.

But it's nice.

It feels good.

Yeah, it's cool.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Now he's trying to make the argument that women don't enjoy oral sex because they can come faster with their fingers. Who told them that?

[Brian Green]

One?

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

God.

[Brian Green]

Do you have? No.

I know that after having bedded 4,000 women across the world, that mouth of yours is probably pretty good at going down on women. Nothing. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

You ever had the other a week? I cleaned out my disposal and in the P trap there was just like this weird smelly gook. Yeah, I imagine that's what's on Jan Anthony's beard.

And that makes you think this guy's incredible.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Try to follow this. Like, what the fuck is he talking about? Seriously, it's pure nonsense.

[Chrissy]

Oh, there it is.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Painted nails. He might have painted nails too. These are all the. The gurus that everyone has to rely upon. We've got Ross Jeffries pushing Speed, seduction and neural.

[Brian Green]

We haven't done Ross. Oh, thanks for cling it. Cluing. Yeah, cluing us in here.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

I mean, otherwise known as nlp. And then going on a podcast and admitting that he's below 100 lake out. Okay. And guys are like trying to memorize 100 lake count.

[Brian Green]

What in the world? What in the world you call it? A lay count. I think it's called a body count. First of all, I think that's the nomenclature all the kids are using. But second of all, under a hundred, I'd love to be over 4, you know what I'm saying? Like that doesn't matter. What does that matter?

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Little different routines, these language patterns. Oh, I'm gonna, you know, make her addicted to my. With my little fancy language patterns. No, you're not. And you're not going to do it by embracing.

[Brian Green]

I'm addicted to my.

[Chrissy]

We've got to see this guy.

[Brian Green]

Ross Jeffries.

[Chrissy]

Ross Jeffries.

[Brian Green]

Write that down. Let's make sure we get a note.

[Chrissy]

Where's the notebook?

[Brian Green]

I think we need the notebook back.

[Chrissy]

We need the notebook for sure. Where is that?

[Brian Green]

I don't know, but I think we need it because, you know, we need it now.

[Chrissy]

We need Ross Jeffries. Well, he just referenced something about the nfp.

[Brian Green]

Nlp.

[Chrissy]

Nlp.

[Brian Green]

Nlp. Okay, I have heard of this nlp.

[Chrissy]

Somebody else referenced that.

[Brian Green]

Someone else put this the neuro language processing or something like that.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Yeah, this dichotomous energy as well. The way you're going to start banging a lot of chicks or at least having a lot of hot girl options to turn into a girlfriend or to put on rotation is by learning how to text, learning how to set up your online profile, learning how to run a date, getting good at bringing most girls you take out on a date back home.

[Chrissy]

I'm going to go run a date real quick.

[Brian Green]

I'm going to go run a date real quick. Hey, you know, you don't mind if I practice getting good at texting with you, do you? I just got to do a practice, a couple practice texts. I got to put in the reps. I got my 30 minute strategy call in a few minutes. Can I. Hey, dick pic jerk. Get good at texting. Get good at texting. What are you talking about? Oh my God. Oh John Anthony.

[Chrissy]

He's gonna show us it all.

[Brian Green]

I do love you. I do love you.

[Chrissy]

If only we could get in on that strategy call.

[Brian Green]

Only we could get in on that strategy call. Well, listen, it's not to be. At least not right now. All right, here's what you do. Well, you know what? First I want to say this.

[Brian Green]

Late night, having some fun, doing endless editing, watching tlc. Yeah, avoiding my responsibilities with my wife. And children. So I'll just sit here and respond to text messages. I actually, that's a favorite pastime of mine.

[Krista Joy Hoadley]

Good.

[Brian Green]

Also tcb podcast.com all the audio, all the video right there on the website if you so choose. Okay, Chrissy, I guess that's all I can do for today.
