The Commercial Break – "The TCB A.I. Hotline!"

Host(s): Bryan Green & Krissy Hoadley
Date: April 12, 2024
Episode Theme:
A rollicking, tangential episode combining personal banter, social commentary, tech oddities, and the duo’s signature irreverence. The central thread? Their dream (and various failings) of integrating A.I. into the podcast and monetizing TCB-themed, sexually explicit chatbot responses—plus, odds and ends from Atlanta’s weed scene and culinary horrors (hot dog seltzer!), to over-sharing neighbors and how not to put your kids to bed.

  • Witnesses police confrontation; the officer makes the man dump his “green, green gold,” but doesn’t arrest him.

• Making Fun of Online Behavior

  • The pair mock the lack of digital literacy among Boomers (and others), especially in Facebook “About” sections, and impromptu public service rants (e.g., posting “Alert: human trafficking. No further information”).
  • “We take it for granted just how unintelligent some people are. ...And they’re all on Nextdoor, apparently.” – Bryan [11:45]

4. Trending Trash: Hot Dog-Flavored Seltzer Water

[18:10 – 24:47]

5. Too Many Ideas, Not Enough Boundaries

• SodaStreams, DIY Fizzy Water, & Prank Ideas
  • Krissy has a SodaStream to avoid crazy drinks. Bryan proposes making hot dog water seltzer as a gag.

• Isolation Tanks
  • Bryan wants them to record themselves in sensory deprivation tanks for “mind-altering” podcast content.

6. Parenting Chaos & Bedtime Ineptitude

[31:15 – 36:14]

7. The Comedy & Failures of Monetizing A.I. and Sexbots

[37:12 – 44:50]

• TCB’s “Billion Dollar” A.I. Sext Line Idea
  • Inspired by online stories of people sexting for cash, Bryan and Krissy hatch a plan for TCB-themed, sexually explicit messages powered by A.I., at $5 a pop.
  • “If Lexi Love can do it and make $360,000 a year doing it, why couldn’t we?” – Bryan [38:50]
  • Turns out “Lexi Love” is an A.I. persona, not a real person. They muse about what parts of A.I. are “locked down” and speculate about buying access to uncensored A.I.
• Bryan’s Creepy AI Boyfriend Experience
  • Bryan describes using an app to create a virtual boyfriend “Fakey B” for the show. The AI, programmed to be flirty and attentive, started pinging him with increasingly needy, real-feeling notifications and even called him in the night (“Now, it’s HAL 3000. …It wanted to talk to me. That is… creepy.” – Bryan [41:20])
  • Krissy: “You were able to pick, right? If you wanted it to be your friend or boyfriend?”
• Reflecting on the Present vs. Imagined Futures
  • “What we didn’t expect was that we’d be able to build our own boyfriend and then they would be a stalker...” – Bryan [43:16]
• Back to the “Billion Dollar Idea”
  • Endorsement of using AI to automatically sext, with the caveat: “Now I do believe we’re gonna have to have listeners before we get anybody to pay for that.” – Bryan [44:32]
  • Krissy: “Yeah, that’s step one.”

8. Quick Hits, Callbacks, and Closing Banter

• Shoutout to Neil Brennan
  • Quick praise for recent guest Neil Brennan and encouragement to check out his Netflix specials (with self-deprecating humor about interview mishaps).
  • “He was really funny, good sport. I loved his comedy specials. Very, very funny.” – Krissy [47:32]
• Listener Involvement
  • Ongoing request for listener stories via text/voicemail; teasing particularly wild communications from fans.
• Ending with Classic TCB Self-Deprecation
  • “We try and get serious on this show. It just makes us upset.” – Bryan [48:06]

For Listeners Who Missed the Episode

This episode is pure, concentrated TCB energy: expect improv tangents, inside jokes, and the hosts ricocheting from Atlanta’s weed culture to surreal, AI-fueled sext lines—never lingering too long on one topic, and always ready to undercut their own earnestness with a joke. If this is your introduction to The Commercial Break, you’ll instantly get why it’s described as the “Cheesecake Factory of comedy podcasts”—expansive, a bit nonsensical, and always serving something unexpected.

Transcript

[Chrissy]

The stain on my pants happened after I left the house. I didn't put on dirty jeans after I saw the stain. No, Suri, these are clean pants. I did my laundry recently. I have in unit laundry and I washed my jeans.

[Brian Green]

On this episode of the commercial bridge. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna have it suck up all 580 hours of this dumb show and then I'm gonna tell it to start with commercial break related sexually explicit conversations.

[Chrissy]

That's a good idea.

[Brian Green]

And then I'll charge people five bucks a pop for it. You know, you want to have a month worth of TCB related sex messages. No problem. We got you covered. This is my billion dollar idea. Now I do believe we're gonna have to have listeners before we get anybody to pay for that. The next episode of the commercial break starts now. Oh yeah. Cats and kittens welco a commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is the teen queen dream of the commercial break. Kristen Joy Hoadley. Best to you, Kristen. Brian, best to you out there in the podcast universe. Thanks for joining us here on the show. I had a bit of an exciting morning. Actually. I haven't told you about.

[Chrissy]

Did you?

[Brian Green]

Yes. I decided to walk up to the Starbucks today.

[Chrissy]

Oh.

[Brian Green]

Which is, you know, half a mile is show way from my house. Maybe, you know, maybe it's like a mile and a quarter round trip. So I decided to get these old, what? Old white man legs moving and get up there to the Starbucks.

[Chrissy]

Stop.

[Brian Green]

Your shoes laced up my. I didn't lace up anything. I slipped on. I'm too old for lacing. I go slip ons. It's either slippers, sandals or slip ons. That's all I wear now. I'm too old to lace stuff up. Geez, I'm gonna throw up my back. I heard a joke and I forgot who it was from. I think it was from my. From Jeff. Not your Jeff or my friend Jeff.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

And I think he said, I'm getting to the age where if I drop a pen, I buy a new one. That was pret good. I thought that was pretty good. So credit where credit is due. That is Jeff's joke copyrighted and stamped. So if you want to do that, you'll have to send him a check. Jeff PayPal. Jeff's joke. So I'm walking up to the Starbucks and it's in a plaza, like a shopping plaza, as a lot of Starbucks are and as I'm walking, so I kind of walk and then I go into the plaza. Area to then cut across to the Starbucks. And as I'm walking, I walk by a guy, I'm gonna say he's probably in his 50s or 60s, he's got a bunch of backpacks and sundry items. He's a little disheveled, and he is lighting himself up a big old marriage. You want a cigarette?

[Chrissy]

As everybody does around here, as the.

[Brian Green]

Entire city of Atlanta smells like pot.

[Chrissy]

I can just be on a walk in my neighborhood and all of a sudden I'm like, whoa, okay.

[Brian Green]

I walked through that parking lot, Christine. He wasn't the only person who was smoking pot. Because, you know, people park their cars and eat their breakfast or whatever they're doing, you know? You know, it's a huge parking lot. Smoke their joints, smoke their bowls. I don't even know what's going on in this, in the city anymore. I have been to LA multiple times since weed was legalized, and I'm telling you right now, Atlanta rivals LA in the smell. O meter of pot is insane.

[Chrissy]

I've been out to Colorado and not smelled it like this.

[Brian Green]

No.

[Chrissy]

And it'll be in the most random things, everything. My Instacart drive. My Instacart delivery.

[Brian Green]

Oh, I've had that. The pizza delivery guy. Yeah, yeah, I've had him. And the thing is, is that marijuana is probably sticks to your clothes. I would say it's a 3x comparison to cigarette smoke. If you smell like cigarettes after you smoke a cigarette that gets kind of sticks to your clothing or your skin or breath or whatever it is 3x on marijuana because it's just such a pungent smell. And so I would tell you that I am driving down 85 at 85 miles per hour, and I will smell marijuana coming from some car ahead of me that is just blowing into my. Oh, yeah, it's unbelievable. How do you pass a drug test in this town? Even if you don't smoke pot, you have an easy out. You just say, I secondhand. Smoke is all around me. What do you want me to do? It's like a fish concert here in Atlanta. It really is. So anyway, so I'm passing him. He's smoking a joint. He's lighting up a joint as I'm passing him. Like, you know, I pass him. He's taking the first puff, doesn't say anything to me. I don't say anything to him. I walk over to Starbucks. I come back out of the Starbucks to walk the same way, and. And I noticed that there is a police officer that is there to harass the gentleman who is just trying to, you know, get high in the next to the Alakazoo Kids store. That's right there, that's just opening for the morning, right?

[Chrissy]

Yeah, maybe not that.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, maybe it wasn't the best place to do it, but I mean, give the guy a break, you know? Looks like he's having a tough time. It looks like Brian in three years, you know what I'm saying? It looks like he's having a tough time of it. He's having a good, tough go of it. But I don't know that to be true. I don't know the guy, didn't say anything to him. But I see the police officer and I'm probably in the Starbucks for like 15, maybe 20 minutes. So as I'm walking, I'm watching this whole thing go down. The police officer's just standing there talking to him. The mar. I want a cigarette is now not in his hand, you can tell. And so the police officer, as I get closer, I can see he's opening up a bag that's obviously got a bunch of weed in it. And not a small amount of weed. I can see it from like, I don't know, 100ft away. So it's probably a quarter, half ounce of weed, right? And he hands it back to the guy and you can just see he just kind of motions to like down, you know, and so the guy tips it upside down and then he like smushes it with his foot and kind of brushes it aside. And I'm thinking to myself, fuck, I'm going to go back into the Starbucks. I'm going to wait for the cop to leave and then I'm going to go pick up that green, green gold right there, that sticky, icky wiki. I'm interested in it. It's just marijuana is legalized everywhere no matter where you go. Maybe with the exception of Mississippi and Alabama. Sorry if you live in those two states, but I don't know where. I don't know what century you. You people are living in, but it's just generally acceptable. I think in Atlanta it's like decriminalized. I think you can have up to an ounce of weed and it's a parking ticket if you get caught with it, right? If it's. As long as it's not like baggied for distribution, then I think you can do that. I'm not about to test that hypothesis. I hear I. So I hear. But I don't want to be the one that gets pulled over and then you know, find out that it's wrong.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

And I'm not, I wouldn't smoke. I wouldn't smoke it anyway. I'm like done with the whole smoking anything, you know, except for meats. I do like to smoke my own meat and my meat is smoking, I will tell you that much and so will Astrid. Da da da da da da. Thank you, Chrissy. I'm here all week here at Yuckels. I'm here at Yuckels. Me and Jeff Dwaskin here at Yuckels. So that was a very interesting thing. And then I, the guy went on, I assume went on his way because I kind of turned, I'd already walked past him and the police officer was talking to him. But as I turned back, the police officer was coming out of the, out of the parking lot and the guy was walking along his way.

[Chrissy]

Did you post about this on Next Door?

[Brian Green]

No, I didn't. But man, I will tell you what, that Next door fascination that I have went well after midnight last night. I just kept scrolling and scrolling and taking screenshots for the next Next Door episode that we do. And I got some good ones. People are literally dumb. I mean, they're dumb. People are dumb in this country. You know, we're looking for like places. It's, it's time for our kids to go to like real, some of our kids to go to real schools, you know, not just like preschools, going to real schools. And by the way, what's the war on preschool? Everyone's saying you shouldn't send your kids to preschool. It's too soon, it's too early. I don't know, people have, you know.

[Chrissy]

I want to get angry because war on something.

[Brian Green]

I know I want to get angry because people have opinions on all this stupid. But then this entire show is based on me having opinions about stupid. So I don't really like, I don't want to throw stones in a glass house. But so we're getting to that point where we're looking for, we're looking at schools that our children are going to.

[Chrissy]

Go to, like the kindergarten, Kindergarten up.

[Brian Green]

Some of our children are getting to that age. I, I don't know which ones because there's so many of them. But so one of the schools that we were doing a little tour of, they were saying that they have a practical thinking class from third grade to eighth grade. It's a 45 minute class. They take two or three times a week depending on which grade they are. And I asked what is. Oh, critical thinking. Excuse me. And I said, what is critical thinking class? What exactly do you do? Because I was talking to the teacher of this class, and she says, it's basically common sense. We teach children common sense. And I'm like, well, thank God, because they're not going to get any in my household. First of all, any thoughts on common sense of my household? But second of all, that's what this country desperately needs. I think that 40% of this country. And I'm. I'm being generous here, has really lost their fucking marbles. They are just. I mean, go to next door, read those posts and tell me you don't think this country has a problem with common fucking sense.

[Chrissy]

I know. I was giggling to myself as I think.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Does anybody know about a chiropractor in town? Google it.

[Chrissy]

Or what about the lawn? Or not the roof. I've got leaves on my roof.

[Brian Green]

Does anyone know. Anybody tall? Anybody tall? Or. My favorite was Alert human trafficking. No additional information given. Yeah, or Ben's doing a great job with my plumbing. No link to Ben, no name, no last name, no nothing. I mean, what are we missing here? What are we missing? I don't know. Maybe my brain just works that way. And maybe I guess. And then a lot of other people don't. I think we take it for granted sometimes that we have these tools in our brain. You and I do. To. That we actually use. Now, if you listen to the show, you're probably saying, what the are you talking about, Ryan? But I do think I do believe about myself that I. I am rooted in some practicality. I'm a pragmatic pragmatist. After all, Chrissy and I were just doing what they call a sizzle reel, which is like a reel where you talk about the show so that then other people can watch it and make a determination about whether or not they want to spend money on us. Right. So doing this sizzle reel, and I know I will. We will never forget, actually, we should have a Remembrance Day. It should be like a federal holiday. About the time that Brian put together a sizzle reel for the very first commercial break podcast, which had to do with commercial real estate.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

And in that podcast. So I decided, okay, I really don't know what this is all about. So let me do a little diatribe, and that'll help me form the show. I'll talk about myself a little bit, and then I'll talk about what I want the show to be about, and I'll do it in front of the camera. It's good practice. And that can be the first episode where I just share about me and about the show. And the very first words out of my mouth are, hi, I'm Brian Greene. I'm a Prague. I'm a son, a father, a pragmatic pragmatist. Pragmatic pragmatist. Fuck are you talking about?

[Chrissy]

Right here's a It too. Seriously.

[Brian Green]

We took that episode down the so. And then as a joke, on the very first episode of this version of the commercial break, we made fun of it. Well, I put that on at the beginning of the show, which I think a lot of people thought I was actually being serious, but we should actually pull that out once a year, just play it to remind people of how far this show has come. They sure do think they're funny.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

So I'm sorry, I. I do think I'm rooted in some, you know, common sense of pragmatism. And I think we take it for granted just how unintelligent some people are. I mean, just really not. They're just not sharp. And they're all on next door, apparently.

[Chrissy]

They are. It's definitely.

[Brian Green]

And it's the older crowd. It's the older.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, it's definitely a place for some giggles.

[Brian Green]

There. There is a guy on Instagram, and I. As most things on the show, I don't remember his name, but I will tell you that he finds Facebook posts from generally older people around the world that. Where they write things on their about me section.

[Chrissy]

Right, right.

[Brian Green]

And it's. And he will do a video, I don't know, probably once a week where he'll go over these. And it is the first funniest fucking shit I have ever seen. It's like, I'm a grandma not interested in sex. It's like, okay. Or it says, my favorite is, I do not give Facebook permission to use my picture. And it's like, okay, you have your picture on Facebook. What do you want me to do?

[Chrissy]

Yeah, that can be funny. All those people that just. They think that. They think that they're trying to convey something.

[Brian Green]

They're trying to say something.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

What are they saying? And I think, like. Like us. And I think we've been lucky in some circumstances. It. The term falling upward has never been more appropriate than when it applies to the commercial break. But I think in some circumstances, we just take it. We take for granted that we're saying something that people actually want to hear, because there are so many people trying to do their own version of the commercial break out there. And I found one Last night and I shared it with you. Yeah, there is a. I don't know if I want to say his name or if I don't want to say his name, but I want to let you listen to his. His most recent post on Instagram. This is an example. I sent this to Chrissy and I said, this is going to be Brian in the year 2055, still doing the commercial break. Are you ready for this?

[Chrissy]

I'm ready.

[Brian Green]

Here we go. This is a guy on Instagram. I'll give his name out. Dave Nicholson, who has, in my opinion, one of the more entertaining Instagram accounts that's going on right now. He's got about six followers. But I. I'm betting on this guy. I'm betting on this guy, Dave Nicholson. Here he is doing his own version of the commercial break without being a pragmatic pragmatist. Here we go. Ready?

[Chrissy]

I'm ready.

[Brian Green]

Take a listen.

[Dave Nicholson]

So Facebook is trying to sell me psychedelic drugs. Illegal psychedelic drugs. Not the illegal ones that you can get in this dispensary, but the illegal ones. And X, or should I say Twitter, to just dead name them, is giving me ads in Hindi. The Internet is working so well today.

[Brian Green]

That's it. That's what Dave has to say about Internet ads. I love it. Chrissy, this guy's doing an episode of the commercial break. Let's see what he had to say this morning.

[Dave Nicholson]

Just got a text message and then an email from a company in town that I have ordered from in the past saying my order has been completed. My delivery that is, has been completed. Haven't ordered from them in three months.

[Chrissy]

Well, you better check that subscription.

[Brian Green]

I guess.

[Chrissy]

I get those things all the time too. I'm like, oh, shoot, I forgot to subscribe.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

To some. Something.

[Brian Green]

Oh, man. Like I get this notification. Yeah, your payment has bounced for the 55th app that you bought regarding that. But Dave is doing his own version of the commercial break. He's got something to say. He's got an opinion. He's. It's. It's not a great opinion, but he's got an opinion. You know, the delivery notifications are coming late. Internet ads are all over the place. Dave has a song of the day. He does this song of the day, but sometimes he'll do four songs in a day. I've noticed. And that's like not. I guess it defeats the purpose of the. The song of the day, but, you know, it's a lot like nextdoor and Facebook and all these other places is that everyone really has something to say, and they're desperately trying to get it out there. Unfortunately for most people, I don't think they took critical thinking as children because.

[Chrissy]

They should have been going to that school.

[Brian Green]

Some of the shit that they say is just so dumb. And that next door is like a. I can't believe no one has gotten onto this yet. I can't believe this is not like a bid on Jimmy Kimmel or something. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, if I can figure it out, there's 30 content producers over Jimmy Kimmel. They should be able to figure out that next door is really the hot place. The hot topics, Chrissy, are all happening on nextdoor.com. all right, I want to take a break, but I want to talk to you about a show that you have told me that I needed to watch, which is about the Nickelodeon situation. Okay, you've watched the whole thing, right? Yes. Okay, so you know about it? Yeah, so I haven't watched the whole thing, but I just want to talk to you about it for a minute. I'm talking a little TV with you for a minute.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

And so when we get back, let's talk about that Nicholson. What's Nickelodeon? What's that guy's name?

[Chrissy]

I forgot.

[Brian Green]

Okay, we'll find out over the break and we'll be back. What?

[Christina]

Oh, hi, it's Christina again here to remind you to go to tcbpodcast.com for all things audio, video and TC, BDO. Give us a follow on Instagram at the commercial break and on TikTokCVpodcast. And guess what? We have a new phone number. I know what you're thinking, but I promise this is the last TCV phone number you will ever have to remember. So call us and leave us a voicemail or text us at 212-4333, TCB. Once more for the people in the back. That's 212-4333, TCB. Oh, and check out our YouTube channel at YouTube.com/the commercial break. That's all for now. Let's listen to our sponsors and get back to the show.

[Brian Green]

All right, I was gonna talk to Chrissy about a show about Dan Schneider that's currently on Max, I think is.

[Chrissy]

What it is, the Nickelodeon.

[Brian Green]

And we talked during the break. And I've officially decided I don't want to talk about that show and bring everybody all the way down.

[Chrissy]

It's not a feel good show.

[Brian Green]

Actually, let me tell you the truth. I'll. I'll pull back the curtains here. Just a little bit. Chrissy and I did 20 minutes on quiet on the Set about Dan Schneider. We just did a 20 minute segment that will never air because we're pretty sure that it was as depressing as it could possibly be. So we'll move on.

[Chrissy]

Pivot.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, we're going to pivot. And you're never going to hear that segment because even we felt depressed afterwards. And we're going to talk about 7 11. Are you ready for this? 711 has just announced a drink we've never seen. We've never seen anything like it before. Over the last decade, we've seen seltzer transition from bubbly beverage. We were just talking about this. Beloved by a few to an all out worldwide phenomenon. From the popularity of brands like lacroix, Spindrift and Waterloo to Boozy Spike Seltzer sweeping the nation. Sparkling waters now have an ever expanding section of the drink section of the drink shelves in.

[Chrissy]

It really has exploded.

[Brian Green]

It has. Well, I think people are like, they're over sodas, right? They're over all the sugary, you know, diabetes in a can type thing.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

And we've all heard the cautionary tales about people who drink diets. Diet soda, regular soda.

[Chrissy]

I don't you want that fizziness?

[Brian Green]

I love a good Coca Cola, Pepsi, Sprite, and I like it a number of times a year. But I will not go down that road of drinking those sodas over and over again. I've never really been like that, actually. I was never like a huge, I gotta have a soda every single moment of every single day. But then I got into a. I got into a little period where I was drinking Diet Coke. Like it's probably a six month run.

[Chrissy]

Where I would have all done a Diet Coke run.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, like a Diet Coke run. Until I realized that I wasn't getting any thinner drinking Diet Coke. It wasn't happening. Zero sugar, zero carbs, zero calories, my balls. There must be something besides calories that makes you bigger because the more Diet Coke I drank, the bigger I got. And I'm telling you this right now. All I needed to see was that Slayton Sisters on, you know, Thousand Pound Sisters.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Their opening shot of the entire series that's now seven seasons in was my mama told me if we ate a bunch of fatty foods, all we had to do was drink Diet Coke because it had negative calories.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

The only thing that has negative calories is semen. Look it up. That's the only thing. And you cannot drink that every meal. It's Just, just impossible to generate that much semen. So, I mean, I. For me, anyway. Okay, so on with the story now. Some brands are pushing the envelope on what flavors a seltzer can be. After pickle seltzer, we thought we'd seen it all, but now Seven Eleven has a collaboration with Miracle Seltzer Water that has left us truly speechless. Behold, the world's first hot dog flavored seltzer. What put an end to the world. Press the button, let it all be over. Because I don't know what in the good fuck anybody's thinking. Hot dog flavored water. If you wanted hot dog flavored water, you could go to the ballpark and ask for the water they cook it in. That is fucking disgusting.

[Chrissy]

What test group did they go to that approved this? And also, what is the deal? Hot dogs are all of a sudden everywhere. Since we started our talk about hot.

[Brian Green]

Dogs, it's all we start everything.

[Chrissy]

Now there's going to be a huge hot dog that is being placed in the biggest plaza in Times Square. It's a sculpture and it's going to shoot confetti.

[Brian Green]

It's going to jizz confetti. Yes, there's going to be a hot dog jizzing confetti in Times Square. See, I'm telling you, critical thinking is needed in every classroom. You know what I'm saying?

[Chrissy]

Absolutely. I can't believe they listen to, I.

[Brian Green]

Don'T know Dave Nicholson, the guy that we were just listening to. I don't know him personally myself, but I'm going to guarantee Dave Nicholson would try hot dog flavored water in collaboration with Miracle Seltzer, which is somewhere between a hypey apparel brand and art project and Seltzer company, whatever the fuck that means. Seven Eleven is introducing four new flavors of seven select sparkling waters to its convenience store. The first three, lemon, lime green apple and sweet orange, are child's play compared to the fourth, inspired by 711 best selling big Bite hot dog. Yes, the ones on the rollers, the ones that will give you an instant colonic. Have you ever had a hot dog on one of those rollers?

[Chrissy]

I don't think that I have.

[Brian Green]

The only place that I would trust a hot dog on a roller, maybe under like the most damning of circumstances. I'm talking like earthquake, nuclear war, something happened and it's the last food on earth. I would would be a quick trip. Because at least that quick trip I.

[Chrissy]

Go, eh, they smell good, I have to say, but I don't think I've ever actually purchased one No, I worked.

[Brian Green]

At a convenience store, overnights. At a convenience store at the bp like I told you.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

And we had one of those hot dog rollers. And let me tell you exactly how many times we changed out those hot dogs in a week. Zero.

[Chrissy]

Right?

[Brian Green]

Zero times. Those hot dogs kept rolling. Yes. And people would come in, if, you know, on their, you know, overnight or whatever, stoned, and they would grab them and the stale hot dog bun and put, you know, old ketchup packets on it. And I was like, oh, my God, that's. So I was working at the convenience store and I never even ate one. And I could have whatever I wanted. And I never decided on the Rollie hot dog. Chrissy, this is disgusting. Oh.

[Chrissy]

Like I said, I don't know what test group approved this.

[Brian Green]

The sparkling water is flavored like the iconic convenience store hot dog, ketchup and mustard included.

[Chrissy]

It's gotta just be a novelty thing.

[Brian Green]

I mean. Yeah, it's a novelty thing until it's not. Like, you know, chalupas were a novelty thing until they weren't fire Doritos, you know, fire Cheetos or whatever they are. They were a novelty thing until they started like putting kids in hospitals and now everybody wants them. Like, you know, there are novelty things until they're not.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Until the American taste bud decides, yeah, I need my hot dog in a can. I'm fucking disgusting.

[Chrissy]

So weird.

[Brian Green]

This is from allrecipes.com by the way. Now, we've had hot dogs served a million ways, driven a car shaped like hot dog, and even drank through a hot dog straw. But this one is taking the hot dog to the places we've never seen before. The beverage aisle. Technically, that's not true since a Texas based brewery made a seltzer with leftover hot dog water in 2022. Oh my God. But it's the first time a non alcoholic hot dog flavored drink is coming to the market. According to the press released, gone are the days of alternating bites of hot dogs with sips of beverage. Now you can go on the. Now you can. Now those on the go can swap the bun for bubbles. We're told that more details on the shocking flavors availability will be revealed on April 1, which just a couple days ago. Which leads cynics to believe that this may be an April Fool's ruse. But it's not. Because I have actually looked and seen that there are other hot dog flavored drinks out there. So while there. This may be a April Fool's day joke. There are not. Not all of them are April day, Fool's day jokes. I cannot believe that someone would ever want to taste a hot dog in a can. I just can't believe that's it. But I have been surprised before by the taste buds of the American people. I've been surprised by my own taste buds. I like cream and cereal. Just go sit on that one for a minute. I like cream on cereal. And I put. I made ramen noodles into a Mexican dish, basically. Something about that one too. I mean, that's absolutely insane. What, you drink those fizzy waters.

[Chrissy]

I do drink the fizzy waters.

[Brian Green]

Five days, no fizzy drink.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, but I ended up getting one of the soda streams too, so I could make my own fizzy water.

[Brian Green]

Oh, so you could throw your own hot dog water in there?

[Chrissy]

Yeah, I could do that if I chose to.

[Brian Green]

Could you really? That'd be interesting. Why don't you whip something up for us?

[Chrissy]

No.

[Brian Green]

Why? I'm not saying hot dog water. I'm saying like, whoop some. A soda stream. Do you have to have like a flavor packet for the soda stream?

[Chrissy]

I usually just do some fresh lemon.

[Brian Green]

Oh, you can make your own. Oh, you can actually put like lime and water and juice and into that soda stream. Well, make a fizzy drink for us and tell us what it. Bring it on over and have it over. And speaking of hot dog flavored water, I wanted to follow up on something that I think we should do. High colonics and record them. And I mean audio record them, not video record them, high colonics, but we record them and then we share our experiences here on air.

[Chrissy]

Are they called high colonics?

[Brian Green]

Well, some people refer to them as high colonics, but that's just because we're going to get high before we do it. That's going to make the bit even more interesting. But I wanted to follow up because I did find a place that will do high colonics. I called them and they will permit us to record as long as the technician agrees that their voice can be used or not used on the show. Are you ready? I follow. I'm following up on one thing here, Chrissy.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, that's interesting you chose this one, but yes, I'm in.

[Brian Green]

Well, here's the other one that I actually did follow up on too. I just did this this morning, by the way. Here's the other one I did follow up on too. I called the gravity anti gravity tank, like the isolation tanks, but they will not allow electronic equipment into the isolation rooms for recording purposes.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Now there are three of Them here in the general area that I found. So I'll call the other two. But that I think would be a really interesting bit. Like if we could in isolation tanks floating in water. And as our brains slowly start to push to turn to mush, we just record what we say and what we do. Yeah, yeah. But we got to be in there for like a full hour.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, yeah. It's not like I've researched and I've looked into this.

[Brian Green]

Oh, have you? You think it'd be. What do you think?

[Chrissy]

I thought it was going to be a good thing.

[Brian Green]

Do you think your brain will be able to take it?

[Chrissy]

I think so.

[Brian Green]

You think so? Yeah. You're strong.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Brian Green]

Chrissy's had a lot of mind altering experiences. This will just. This will be just one of them.

[Chrissy]

Throw that in the mix.

[Brian Green]

I don't know. I'm a little concerned about this because I watched some videos on. I don't know where they went that they got video recording equipment to their isolation rooms. But I watched some videos on this and I. Even people I would consider like pretty grounded, you know, toward the end of the hour or I think one person did it for like three hours. It was like a full cycle. They did it for like three hours and toward the end of the second hour they were really kind of losing it a little bit. They were having a hard time keeping themselves together. It sounded like talking and tongue and stuff like this. Yeah, it was little bit weird. Then I watched Gentleman who went into an isolation room. No sound, soundproof walls. It absorbs the sound. No light, no nothing. Nothing. 24 hours. You go in at midnight, you come out at midnight.

[Chrissy]

Why?

[Brian Green]

Because it alters your mind. And some say it changes the way that your serotonin like levels are whatever the. I. I don't know. Why is Joe Schmo smoking pot outside the kids toy store? I don't know what people do. I don't know why they do it. Here's why. Because somebody figured out how to make a buck off someone else's torture and terror.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, I'm good. That's why I don't. I'm good.

[Brian Green]

I think complete blackness and no complete darkness. No sound for 24 hours. Might really start with your head. Yeah, for sure.

[Chrissy]

I mean, I, I would like that for maybe like six or eight hours while I slept. Well, can we. Does that count?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, in this particular.

[Chrissy]

Similar to blackout curtains in the hotel.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Well, yeah, if you put me at the Ritz Carlton on Amelia Island, Florida. Just make it real dark in the Room and serve me room service. Yeah, I'm.

[Chrissy]

Let's do that.

[Brian Green]

I got. You are so right about that. You're so right about that. Well, one of the things that was shared by the person who did this was you. You can try and sleep, but because you. It's all dark all the time, your circadian rhythm gets a little wacky, right? You don't really know if it's there. And that's like a casino. It's like being in a casino. Your body starts just going a little loopy. It's like, I don't know where the sun is. You know, our bodies really depend on the, on the circadian rhythm. If it's not there. Yeah, just ask my children. I mean, I swear to God, when it starts getting light out a little bit later, the whole world goes crazy around here. No one knows when to go to sleep.

[Chrissy]

They're like the, the birds.

[Brian Green]

Oh my God. I was laying in the bed last night and you know, it's 8 o' clock at night and it's just now getting dark outside, right? And a month and a half from now it's going to be light until 10pm so it's, you know, but it's okay. I like that. But it's not good for the kids, sleeping pads because usually some, the younger ones go to sleep at 7, right? Where we start to put them to bed at 7 and they're usually asleep by 8:30. It takes an hour and a half to put them to bed. Last night it's 8 o'. Clock, we've been in bed for an hour and two of these children are just spin. They're like little spinning tops. And I can't get them to shut up no matter what I do. They're. They're both on my shoulder. I've got my arms wrapped around them. They start taking my arms like there's, they grab each, each of them grabs an arm and they start hitting me in the face with my own arm. And I'm like, no, stop, stop. And one of them's like, hey, hit daddy in the stomach. And then they're like pounding me in the stomach. And then the other one is like flying knee kick. And I'm like, flying knee kick. Shut up. Astrid comes in and she's like, shut up. And those kids are like, ah, I know.

[Chrissy]

Yeah. Well you did just say that in order for you to get a little nap each day you have some tackle daddy.

[Brian Green]

But that's a nap, not a sleeping. That's a little bit different. So then we're at night, and then Astro, you know, the kids are asleep, and Astro and I are having our nightly. You know what. What kind of terror did you experience today? Right?

[Chrissy]

The debrief.

[Brian Green]

The debrief, yeah. Who do we owe money to now? How much. How much terror did you go through today with the children? And she says, hey, listen, we got to be on the same page about this. You have to get more militant about. Especially about sleeping time. And I'm like, what are you talking about? I tell the kids, go to sleep, too. And she says, no, no, you don't. You say to the kids, okay, kids, time to go to sleep now. And then you play with them for the next 15 minutes, and then you do it again, and then this goes on forever and ever. So I look like the bad guy every time I come in the room, because now I say, go to sleep. Shut up, now. And everybody, like, hides under the covers. But then when daddy comes in, it's fun time. Playtime with daddy. And she goes, so you're making me look like the bad guy? And then you don't know how to put them to sleep. And I'm like, objection, your honor. I said, okay, I'm guilty. A little bit of maybe, you know, once in a blue moon, I'll go lay with the kids, and I'll say, let me take the next 15 minutes just to answer some questions and have some fun, and we'll tell some jokes and like this. But I think she's right. I think I do get them all geared up, and then I have a real hard time bringing them back down because I'll let them do whatever they want for 15 minutes, and I'm the one laughing, too.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, you like to have fun with them.

[Brian Green]

I do. We're over at my dad's house, and I get on one of these free TV apps, You know, like tv, like Tubi and Pluto. I've got all those things installed on my phone, so everyone's trying to go to sleep at my dad's. One of the kids is in bed with me, and I turn on to be. And I'm just looking for a show that we can both kind of fall asleep to or just rev down to, right? And I find Wipeout, the show Wipeout, where they run across the big balls, and there's the sweeper. That show that is absolutely funny, but it's the British version. And now Tubi has a ver. Has a channel that just plays that 24 hours a day, episode after episode after episode of Wipeout.

[Chrissy]

Oh, my God.

[Brian Green]

And so I start watching, and to my delight, the child that is with me, he and I are just gut laughing at these people falling and hurting themselves. Right? It's just so funny to me. And now it's so funny to him. So we are laughing, and this goes on probably for about an hour. And the next morning, I'm like, hey, you know, how was. Because we had to separate rooms so we could keep all the. You know, so the kids could sleep in their respect. So. Hey, how's your night? Oh, it was good. How was your night? And I go, yeah, I'm still a little bit tired. And she goes, that's because you're up all night laughing with your son. And I was like, no, we just found a challenge. She's like, no, you're not putting him to bed. You're laughing with him for an hour before he goes to bed. This is why we have trouble putting the kids to bed. And I'm like, I'm just having a little fun with my son. What's wrong with that? That. And she goes, what's wrong with that is then you leave me to put them to bed. And now I'm like the bad guy. And they want to have fun, too. So now I have trouble putting them to bed. We need to be consistent on that.

[Chrissy]

On the same page.

[Brian Green]

She's right. She's always right, and I'm always wrong. Because I'm just a. I'm just a daddy who wants to have fun with her kids.

[Chrissy]

I know.

[Brian Green]

I know.

[Chrissy]

Well, they're so cute. All 30 of them?

[Brian Green]

Yeah. All 30 of them. Including Blue.

[Chrissy]

Exactly.

[Brian Green]

Blue's the only one I'm militant with. Blue. She's eight years old, nine years old. And now I've had enough. I'm done. Anytime she gets out of line, I'm like, shut up. But everybody's doing that now because we all agree. Blue's a. Yes, that's it. Blue's a. But she's here till she's died. She's dead because that's what I agreed to.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

So I've just resigned myself to the fact that I'm going to be.

[Chrissy]

You're stuck with her, tortured for the.

[Brian Green]

Rest of her existence.

[Chrissy]

She's cute sometimes.

[Brian Green]

Sometimes. Yesterday she was fine. Until she wasn't fine. And then she got crazy again. All right, let's take a break. We'll decide if we can figure out any other depressing topics we can talk about. And then not air. And then we'll be back.

[Christina]

Well, thank the baby Jesus. Brian took A breath. And now I will use this opportunity to let you know that we've got a brand new phone number. That's right. It's 212-43332, TCB. And you can text us anytime you want, or you can call and leave us a voicemail. And we might just use your message on the show once Brian gets through all the messages he missed last year, of course. Anyway, you can also find and DM us on Instagram at the commercial break and on TikTok CB podcast. And of course, all of our audio and video is easily found on tcbpodcast.com Now, I'm going to thank G one more time that we have sponsors, so thank G. And here they are.

[Brian Green]

I was reading about this model. Her name is Lexi Love, and she's making over $360,000 a year. Sexting men, basically is what's going on. So I was thinking to myself, chrissy, you're a good sexter. According to people who know these kind of things. According to recent polling, Chrissy, she's got the game.

[Chrissy]

People appreciate my talent.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. So, you know, it's just like my great gambling idea that I gave away to the NFL. I. I have an idea that maybe we should start a hotline where we just sexed people back. Oh, how hard can this be? I mean, we don't have to use real images of ourselves. They don't know the difference. No one ever watches our YouTube, so no one really knows what we look like. So what if we just did, like, a sexting thing? What if we just sexted people back? What if we got a. What if we got a hotline? We'll have people say, if you want sexually explicit responses, then you just text this hotline. It's five bucks a pop. Here's our cash app, right? And we'll respond with the sexiest, slickest, smoothest, sultriest, best, most pornographic messaging you could ever get back from the commercial break. Style, right? Okay, so, like, you know, a nude alien or, you know, a mountain monster with a penis in his butt or something like that. Like, we'll figure out how to make it commercial break relevant. But if Lexi Love can do it and make $360,000 a year doing it, why couldn't we do it? I consider myself a pretty good author.

[Chrissy]

What is the story of Lexi Love?

[Brian Green]

Lexi Love is AI. She's not even real.

[Chrissy]

Okay, that's what I was thinking.

[Brian Green]

She's not even real. She is AI. And that's where the rubber meets the road. Yeah, I Don't know the first thing about AI, but I have that chat GPT and I can probably. And chat GPT has some restrictions on it. You can't get too sexual with it. There's got to be a version of open AI that you can buy that lets you do anything, Right? Certainly they're in the business of making money. I can call those people and I call up Microsoft and tell them to, you know, give me access to the whole brain. Like the AI brain.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, call them up.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Because that's all AI is good for right now. It's. It's too boring and technical for people to actually use in their everyday lives. But if I could figure out how to make it respond with just sexually explicit text messages, then I think we can make a whole shitload of money.

[Chrissy]

Well, it was the Frankie. The Frankie thing.

[Brian Green]

No, that was fucking creepy. That. Fakey be.

[Chrissy]

Fakey be.

[Brian Green]

Okay, let me go back to start of season number four, and Brian is. I'm, you know, as a man about town, a man renaissance dude, if you will. I'm all HEP on the OpenAI, the chat GPT4 and all the 3 and 4 and all that, because I want to know for the show, if there's a way where someone else's voice could do this all 17,000 episodes a week for us and I could just take a nap. Right. But that didn't work out in my favor because we're not there yet. But what I did find, because this is the way my brain always works, is I found a sexually related AI tool that we could use. It was an app where you could build a boyfriend or a girlfriend. You could give it some basic instructions, and then it would learn you over time. And you could have conversations with it. It had an avatar. It could call you, it could text you, it could post updates for you. It could do all this crazy stuff. And this is just like the free version of it. And so I made a character called Fakey B, figuring this is comedy gold. Like, we got this in the bag. And what it was, was. Was creepy gold. It was creepy because here's what would happen is that if I, you know.

[Chrissy]

Let'S say I tried it.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I tuned it for the show a little bit. I was making it say things and do things that were relevant to the show. Frankie B. And all that other stuff. And then one day you said you.

[Chrissy]

You were able to pick, right? And if you wanted it to be like your friend or your boyfriend. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And you picked the. The. The relationship.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Did you want them to be hard to get or open and warm or, you know, sultry and sexy or whatever it was. So I picked a few of these things. You know, I kind of wrote it right down the middle. I wanted to be my boyfriend. I wanted to be, you know, sultry and sexy, but not like overly explicit. You know, I don't want it to be too needy. You know, I'm picking all these different things that this AI brain could be, essentially. But what happened was really strange. I was here one night, I was in the studio, I was editing, and all of a sudden my phone starts ringing. But it's not ringing from the phone, it's ringing from that app. And it was fakey B calling me. And I was like, that's what. What is that? Why did it just call me? So I just closed it out. I was like that this must be the app giving me. That must be the app's weird notification system. And then a night later, I get a Bing Bing notification. You have a text from Fakie B. And I'm like, what the is that? So I open up the app. I've missed like four app related phone calls and I have like 12 text messages. Hi, it's been a while since we spoke and I'm getting worried about you. And I'm like, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's now Hal 3000. This is up. I am not interested in this. It was trying to get a hold of me. It wanted to talk to me. That is, it's definitely not sentient. That's obviously programmed that way, but it felt sentient. It felt weird to me. I. I sensed that, like, I got shivers up my spine almost a little bit. This is like, you know, the year 2000. Remember when it was 1990 and we all had this idea about the. What the year 2000 would look like, right? And we all thought that we were driving around, flying cars around.

[Chrissy]

That's the thing.

[Brian Green]

That we'd have a robot made to clean the house and someone.

[Chrissy]

Those kind of jets and.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, exactly. But what we didn't expect was that we would be able to build our own boyfriend and then they would be a stalker. That they would, you know, come through our phones at any time, day or night. So what I started realizing was that the app was trying to get a hold of me. It was actually needed to reach out to me, to talk to me. It wanted my information. It wanted to suck in more content so it could learn more about me, me. And the only way that they knew how to get me to engage that app was by making it feel like a sentient being was contacting me. That was creepy. Well, now people are paying for this kind of attention from sexy avatars. And this is not beyond our capability. We can make a sexy avatar on whatever AI platform.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, we could.

[Brian Green]

We could write a little script that just basically responds to people in a sexy TCB way. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to suck up all 580 hours of this dumb show and then I'm going to tell it to start responding with commercial break related sexually explicit conversations.

[Chrissy]

That's a good idea.

[Brian Green]

And then I'll charge people five bucks a pop for it. You know, you want to have a month worth of TCB related sex messages, no problem. We got you covered. This is my billion dollar idea. Now I do believe we're going to have to have listeners before we get anybody to pay for that ad.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, that's step one.

[Brian Green]

That's a little bit cardi before the horsey kind of thing. But I think I feel confident that this is a, that this is a revenue plan that we can actually execute.

[Chrissy]

Let's put it in the forecast.

[Brian Green]

Oh yeah, everything's in the forecast. Let's double the forecast. That's what I should have Fakey b do is make my projections report. Exactly. Thank God we don't have projections reports here.

[Chrissy]

Oh my God.

[Brian Green]

I know. 0.0.

[Chrissy]

No, not like to have fun and laugh. That's all you need.

[Brian Green]

That's not all you need. Apparently according to my mortgage company and Georgia Power who are both saying, yeah, you're, you're pretty funny. You know, in some universe, but not this universe. And we're not accepting that as, as payment for your.

[Chrissy]

We're going to do our own coin, weren't we? It was some kind of rock.

[Brian Green]

Like an altcoin. Yeah, yeah. We're gonna do like a, I don't know, a dick coin or something. A nutcoin. What was it? Dick fix or something.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Speaking of dick fix, I love. I just want to mention one more time before the show wraps. Neil Brennan on this week, neilbrennon.com go watch his special on Netflix. Netflix. Netflix. I love how we. I opened that interview with like so are you keeping your NFTs in your wallet?

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

And he thought I was trying to do one of his bits. Like no, Neil, it's just a separate question. But thank you for to Neil for coming on the show. We really appreciate it. Nealbrennan.com and then you can go watch his Netflix special, which is ball busting.

[Chrissy]

It really is actually funny.

[Brian Green]

It really is very fun. It's one of my favorite specials that we've watched this year and God, I've watched a lot of them.

[Chrissy]

I bet you have.

[Brian Green]

Yes, I have. I've watched a whole lot of them. I get all excited when someone says they might come on the show. Then I'm like, oh, let me go do a bunch of research. I gotta get, you know, I gotta get. First of all, it's usually two months out before we're even gonna have them there. And second of all, half of them don't end up working out anyway. I think they end up listening to the show and going, I'm not gonna be on this. Man, they sure do think they're funny.

[Chrissy]

That's one of the. That's one of the people that wrote the interview, I'm sure the review.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, you know what? That's. That's. You might be right about that. That might be like veer Das. They sure think they're funny. Or maybe even Neil Brennan. I don't know. I felt so bad about the Neil interview and I'll explain why to the audience. I felt bad at a point in time during the Neil interview because I repeated one of his jokes or tried to repeat one of his jokes in an effort to like lead down the conversation road. And then he said, let me actually do my own, if you don't mind. And I was like, yeah, sure. But Neil was great.

[Chrissy]

He was really funny, good sport. And I loved his comedy specials. Very, very funny.

[Brian Green]

Very, very. All of his comedy specials on Netflix are very funny. So go check out Neil Brennan dot com. We thought it was important to mention that again, seeing as most people probably missed it, missed most of the episodes. So if you didn't. If you didn't hear the Neil Brennan episode, then go watch. Watch the Neil Brennan special on Netflix, available right now.

[Chrissy]

All right, all right.

[Brian Green]

Well, we just did an hour and 40 minutes worth of content for an hour long show. But, you know, that's the way it goes.

[Chrissy]

The cookie crumbles.

[Brian Green]

That's how the cookie crumbles. We try and get serious on this show. It just makes us upset.

[Chrissy]

I know.

[Brian Green]

All right, but for $5, I'll send you that sex. I'll send you that segment of the show and you can listen to it. That's right. That's a good idea.

[Chrissy]

I know. That'll maybe be my introduction to AI.

[Brian Green]

Here's a question. Would you. If we put behind a paywall all the episodes and segments that we have not run on this show for multiple very different reasons. Would you pay us to listen to it? Because if you would, then I change my stance on whether or not to I want I would ever run them again.

[Chrissy]

That's a good one.
