You Heard It Here...First!

Summary

The Commercial Break – “You Heard It Here...First!” (July 16, 2024) Hosts: Bryan Green and Krissy Hoadley

---

Episode Overview

In “You Heard It Here...First!”, Bryan and Krissy serve up their signature improv-driven banter with a timely and empathetic twist. The episode navigates recent pop culture losses, the fallout from political violence, wild sports fandom, reality TV absurdities, and their perpetual musings on the generational divide—infused with the unpolished, irreverent, and self-mocking charm that defines TCB. Taking time to discuss recent events with sincerity amid their usual chaos, they reflect on the state of the world, relationships, and whether crawling through air vents for soccer is ever worth it.

Transcript

[Chrissy]

I have no secrets.

[Brian Green]

I'm mad.

[Chrissy]

I have to go to work.

[Brian Green]

I have to earn a living.

[Chrissy]

I'd rather have a private income and get laid.

[Brian Green]

Well, in office. On this episode of the commercial break, Not a great look for them to have all these videos all over the place of people crawling through the air conditioning vent.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, I mean, that's something you see on, like, you know, spy shows.

[Brian Green]

You see it on cartoons.

[Chrissy]

That's where you see it, Our spy shows. Yes. You know, like Mission Impossible.

[Brian Green]

I know. Can you imagine taking a piss or like taking a piss and then some guy just falls out of the, out of the air conditioning bin?

[Yuri]

Hola.

[Brian Green]

Hola, Colombia, Columbia. The next episode of the commercial break starts now. Hey, cats and kittens. Welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is my dear friend and the co host of this show, Chris and Joy Hoadly. Best to you, Chris.

[Chrissy]

Best to you, Brian, and best to.

[Brian Green]

You out there in the podcast universe. Thanks for joining us. Breaking news as we come on air today. Dr. Ruth Westenheimer has died.

[Chrissy]

Quite a few people died over the weekend.

[Brian Green]

Yes. Shannon Doherty. Who else?

[Chrissy]

Dr. Ruth. It was Shelly Winters.

[Brian Green]

Shelly Win. Shelly Winters. No, she died a long time ago, I think.

[Chrissy]

No, it was the girl. Olive oil and.

[Brian Green]

Oh, that is Shelly Winters. Shelly Duvall. Not Shelly Winters. Shelly Duvall. You heard it here last, folks, and incorrectly. Yeah. And so there was one more.

[Chrissy]

Somebody was there.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. After they happen in trifectas.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, they, they do. But there was one more.

[Brian Green]

I can't remember. I can't remember either. But Dr. Ruth Westingheimer, for those of you that are not of that generation, taught a lot of us about sex and a lot of us about sex in great detail. Because she's like the first. She's a doctor. She got a weird accent that everybody loves. She's like your cute old grandma. She, she was like 86 when I was 6.

[Chrissy]

I know.

[Brian Green]

How did she make it to 86 if she was 86 when I was 6? I don't know. She was an old lady when I was a very young man. But I remember seeing her on certain talk shows and television shows and she would be describing sex in great detail. And my mom loved it. She thought it was the greatest thing. When Dr. Ruth came on, she'd be.

[Yuri]

Like, kids come in here, Dr. Ruth is out.

[Brian Green]

And you'd be like, oh, she's gonna show. She's gonna show us something.

[Chrissy]

Oh, yeah, she was very descriptive and, and like a clinical but funny.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, she was, she was. Yeah, because of her accent, her German or Austrian accent, whatever she was.

[Chrissy]

She would laugh and.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, she would giggle it up and people would ask her silly questions that.

[Chrissy]

Were calling in about questions. I think that's what it was.

[Brian Green]

The Dr. Ruth Show. Yes. Which, you know, she would do the talk show circuit, like Oprah, Jenny Jones, Phil Donahue, you know that. That's when I was like a kid. Kid, like 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 years old, whatever it was. And then she had her own show called the Dr. Ruth Show.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

And then she would get highly descriptive. But the thing was is that because of her disarming nature, she would be. It would. I don't know, she would be very descriptive on the nose. She would use the proper terminology, you know, the Maz Venus and the blah, blah, blah, and the clitor Taurus and the penis and the whatever. She would say those words. So it was so clinical. I don't think the television stations knew what to do with it because you wouldn't hear people talk like that on top. Now it's a dime a dozen. I mean, you hear all kind of description. Hawk to a girl got a contract. Right. But Dr. Ruth was talking about Haktua long before Haktua was talking about Haktua. She. Someone pulled up a clip on Instagram or something. They. They showed a clip of her back on her show, the Dr. Ruse show, how she was talking about spitting on the penis to get it more lubricated. And I was like, wow, she's hacked to it. Talk to her. And she was. And so I have fond memories of Dr. Ruth just because I thought she was funny. She was like my grandma. She taught me clinical things about sex. I still don't have a good grasp on, but I'm trying.

[Chrissy]

Yeah. There was a documentary about her a few years ago I Probably on Netflix. And it was interesting how she got her start.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

How her whole trajectory went.

[Brian Green]

I think we can all. Regardless if you were in that era or not. I think we can all say a thank you to Dr. Ruth for bringing it out in the open and having frank discussion about what it took to make love and potentially your partner. Yeah. And now it's gone wild all over the place. We went from Dr. Ruth to Hawk. Tua. Yes. Oh my God. The PR machine is already working on that. Hawk to a girl. I'll tell you what, I saw like a clip and it says Hawk to a girl. Gets instantly famous and uses her good or uses her fame for good. And she's like going to a dog shelter to feed Dogs. Which, by the way, is great. I love it. I think it's fantastic that she went and fed the dogs. But I'm like, this seems a little too pretty imperfect for an actual post. Something's going on here.

[Chrissy]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Green]

You know, she got.

[Chrissy]

For sure.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, for sure. So. And then Shannon Doherty, of course, 90210 fame.

[Chrissy]

No, that was really sad. She'd had cancer for a while.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, she'd been dealing with it for like, what, almost a decade, I think. On and off or something like that. Yeah, that's. That's absolutely terrible. And 90210. Oh, well, when it first came out, it was like Fox was a new station. And so they didn't have many original television programming. Not a lot of the original television program. They had like cops and 90210 was like the two shows that were taking the world. Oh, and Melrose. Melrose. Well, melrose came after 9 02. And it was like. It was like a. I guess you would call like a timeline adjacent show. It was loosely connected to 9 021.

[Chrissy]

Right. It was like people. Young adults in the work world.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But what was that show? Al Bundy. The Bundys.

[Chrissy]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Green]

Marriage, Married With Children was also one of the shows. And then, of course, they had the Simpsons came later. But. But 90210 took the world by storm when it came out. I was a young man. I was. I don't know what I was, but I was a young, young man.

[Chrissy]

I was a young girl. And. Oh, yeah, that was appointment tv. You had to watch that. Yeah, you were in high school. I think I was like young middle school.

[Brian Green]

So.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, it was very fascinating.

[Brian Green]

It was all very, like, taboo. It seemed like they were kissing and making out and doing drugs and smoking cigarettes, and Dean was the bad boy that everyone wanted to have.

[Chrissy]

They brought up the issues.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, yeah, they did. They brought the issues in a much worse way than Dr. Ruth, but they did bring them up nonetheless. And Shannon was a big part of that success story. And then she became. She got a. I think like a bad rap is like maybe not a bad rap. A wild child and difficult to deal with. And so 90210 fell apart, I think even before it got really started. Wasn't like four seasons of 90210, and then it just kind of went away.

[Chrissy]

Ah, I can't remember.

[Brian Green]

I don't know. Anyway, so. But Shannon Doherty was a big part of this.

[Chrissy]

She went on to do another series, the Witches.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, the Witches or whatever. Yeah. But she be. She had some notoriety there and then for the last decade had been dealing with cancer. She passed away and had known that she was going to pass away because she was on some talk shows and putting out videos. And I think she had a podcast there for like a hot minute where she was interviewing other celebrities about their struggles. Anyway, so Shannon Doherty there. And then, of course, over the weekend, the assassination attempt of Donald Trump. I don't want to harp on this. I don't think there's any need to. There's so much talk going on about it and as Chrissy says, skim the headlines and move on and. But I do want to just. I think we would. Part of the reason why we're not airing an interview today and part of the reason why we're. We're coming on air the day we're recording this, the day before we send it out is because as a show that's in your ear four times a week, I think we could sound completely out of touch if we didn't at least say something about this. You know, assassination attempts are few and far between, but they do do happen, unfortunately. Political violence is a part of the story of America, and this is a terrible event, a terrible tragedy. And I don't care who you are and what side of the aisle that you're on, rooting for someone's demise in that way, like not living demise is not cool. And it's part of the reason why I think we're in the mess that we're in is because we are all so divided and so extreme. Chrissy's been saying this for a long time, and it's been kind of a funny thing we've been saying, but maybe not so much anymore. Rev down, rev down, rev down. The temperature in the kitchen is way too hot. And this is causing, I think, people.

[Chrissy]

It's just so easy too, to shoot off at the hip, whatever messages you want from your phone.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

And you know, you're not face to face seeing the other person and trying to think about where they're coming from. And it just causes so much hatred and misinformation. And I can't delve too deep into it. I think I like to skim the headlines.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

And then move on.

[Brian Green]

As someone who does a whole lot of trolling on the Internet, I don't mean trolling like talking. I never talk on the Internet, never say anything. That's never me. So if you think it's me, it's not me. I don't ever comment on anything. Not even Instagram posts that I like, that I think, you know, like pure family mush. I don't even go there because I have no interest in engaging in the div. The diversity, the divisiveness. I just don't. And, you know, we don't know anything about anything. It's the fog of war right now. I'm not even going to speculate about any of that stuff. Just to say that it is a shocking and terrible thing that happened. And I think we can all agree as people who live in a free society that we shouldn't feel our lives are threatened for attending a rally or being a part of political discourse. But I think the political discourse has gone far beyond just, you know, hey, this is who I'm voting for. This is why I'm voting for them. Or, you know, I don't agree with this, or I don't agree with that. It's gotten insane in the sense that now you can't disagree with somebody without having your life threatened, which is just beyond the measure. There was a time in this country not long ago when you could sit at a kitchen table and wonder why the Braves so so much, or why. Or talk about how Mike Tyson is going to fight one of the Logan, you know, the Logan guys, the Paul guys, and that was it. You never talked about these, you know, issues in such a manner that is like literally violent way of speaking. And I really wish that we could all just take the temperature down. And I hope that's the message that comes from the leaders. But it really starts with us. I think some people would assume that it's inevitable that things get crazier before they get better, but it doesn't have to be inevitable. It doesn't have to be. And that starts with me. It starts with me, like I don't have to participate in that kind of discourse and I don't have to look at someone who doesn't agree with me on an ideological spectrum as an inhumane object. I can look at them as a human being who just doesn't see the world the way that I do. But that's okay. That's part of what has made this country great throughout 200 and almost 50 years. And hopefully that will make our country great moving forward. And I think that this is a wake up call in such a big way and should be to everyone on every side of the aisle. As my father in law says, I. But I know, I'm kidding. As my father in law says, extremes on either end end up at the same place. And that is the truth. It couldn't be more so if we think that that side or that side is above it or better than it. No, we're not. Because we've all. Because it's all gotten way too fucking hot. And so I just thought that even though we never. Almost never talk about politics on here, meaning sharing political opinions or anything, like.

[Chrissy]

The point of the show.

[Brian Green]

Agree.

[Chrissy]

The break. The commercial break.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, that's kind of.

[Chrissy]

But sometimes things.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Float to the surface that you do have to address.

[Brian Green]

Sometimes things go like, pierce that skin. And, you know, it happened early on in the show when we were dealing with coronavirus. It happened a couple times here and there, but sometimes pop culture or events in the real world pierce that skin. And I wouldn't want to just be blind to it because we're. I think we all have at least heard about it at this point. Actually, you know what the crazy thing was, is that it's like the next day, and one of my friends who I consider really plugged in to pop culture political events, like, they're just generally tuned in, he texted me, and he's like, hey, brother, just. Just text and see how you're feeling. And I was like, oh, I. I feel terrible. And he's like, oh, it's. You still have the shits. And I was like, what are you talking about? And he's like, you were sick. I'm asking how you are. And I said, no, I'm talking about the whole thing that happened at the rally. And he was like, what? What are you talking about? And I'm like, your phone is not absolutely buzzing. And he's like, oh, no. He's probably out in the woods taking ayahuasca or some shit. Probably.

[Chrissy]

He just gotten back.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, he just got back from a long, strange trip. He probably wants to go back to the long, strange trip after that. But anyway, for our part, I just want to share that I hope that, you know, I know this may sound hippie dippy, but that's who we are at the core. Actually, you know, rev it down, Rev it down. Maybe we can all just go to the ballot box. Not the battle box, as Joe Biden said yesterday, but the ballot box. And put our opinions onto a piece of paper, punch it, and move on, and that's it. So that this. So that, you know, I have children and I see the world in a whole different way now.

[Chrissy]

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. And I don't want to leave them with a hot mess or nothing at all. I just don't And I can't control what anybody else does, but I can control what I do, and I can show them an example and my opinion. You know what? You want to know something? Do you want to hear this? And I think that some people find this crazy. My. My wife certainly does. My father never once, not once, not ever, and maybe not still to this day, has ever told me who he has voted for.

[Chrissy]

Oh, really?

[Brian Green]

Asked as a child, who did you like, when I asked as a child, who did you vote for? Because I, you know, saw that. The election or whatever, he said, that's. That's not any of your business. You never ask someone who they voted for. And I was like, but I'm. I'm your child. He was like, that's even more reason to keep you uninformed.

[Chrissy]

Which my dad. That's weird, because my dad was kind of evasive about it, too.

[Brian Green]

Isn't that weird? Yeah, but I think that's just the time they lived in, like, you don't say those. It's like asking. It's like talking about religion at a. At a, you know, at a dinner party. You just don't do that. Well, now it's like the only thing anybody talks about. And so can we just go back to how bad the Brave suck? I mean, honestly, listen to those Braves. They started off so hot.

[Chrissy]

They've won it. Well, they've lost quite a few players.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, that's true.

[Chrissy]

And, you know, they're. They're holding in there, but they're not too good.

[Brian Green]

They're hanging in there. But, yeah, if you look across the entire league, their percentage, Winning percentage is actually pretty good. It's up there in the top 10. But then if you, you know, just. Fuck, man. Braves. Come on. I was really hoping this year would be our year, but it's an embarrassment of riches here in Atlanta with baseball because we've won so many titles and so many, you know, National Division Series and all this other stuff that we complain when, you know, we're not number one all the time. At least we're not like the Orioles or something.

[Chrissy]

Hey, listen, if, you know, you know.

[Brian Green]

I K N Y K D Y.

[Chrissy]

K. Oh, my gosh. It was very funny because I was driving Jeff to the airport yesterday, and on the way back, you know the big Chick Fil A yes. Billboard that's been there forever.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

And just. It changes pretty frequently.

[Brian Green]

Oh, the one on the tower?

[Chrissy]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It changes pretty frequently. It had a whole thing about chicken. If, you know, you know.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, I don't I don't know if that episode has aired yet. It may air tomorrow.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

Because we had an episode to air today. We had an interview to air today. We'll push that till tomorrow. Then we had another episode that we recorded last week.

[Chrissy]

We're doing a little reshuffle.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, we're doing a reshuffling. Because I told Chrissy we're gonna. We're gonna really sound like the least informed show in the world if we run this show. Talking about the events of a week and a half.

[Chrissy]

Yeah. Just look forward to hearing Brian's thoughts on the phrase if you know. And we'll leave it at that.

[Brian Green]

Let me. Well, let me share you. Let me. Let me pretend like we have a time machine and we can go back and forth. Let me tell you the funniest part about this. You and I get out of the studio after just having recorded that. I look on our Instagram and Astrid has reposted something one of our listeners posted. And on the bottom it says, ik. And I was like, what is that? And she goes, oh, well, someone posted something. So I just, you know, I shared it and I said, if you know, you know. And I was like, oh, my God, Astrid, you don't even know. We're going to look like real fucking idiots because I just spent 26 minutes sharing my incredibly opinionated thoughts on IKY K Y, whatever the fuck that is. And so, you know, I. I'm not going to talk politics, but I sure do have an opinion on if, you know, you know. All right, so listen, let's take a break, and then I want to talk about Copa America and the Euro Cup. I was so excited. Soccer all. All weekend long. Some of you may not be interested, but I think there is some. I think there's some funny stuff to.

[Chrissy]

Talk about I want to hear. Fill me in.

[Brian Green]

Okay, I will fill you in right after this break.

[Brian Green]

Bye. Okay. Yeah. So over the weekend, Sunday, the Euro cup and the Copa America, which are the two, like, regional soccer tournaments that happen. I think it's every two years. Is it every two years? I don't know. Anyway, I. I never really got interested in it until. I mean, I was always interested in soccer, but I never got interested in these two tournaments until I married Astrid.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

When it's very big. Yeah. She's half Spanish, half Venezuelan. So of course we've got to root for Venezuela and for America and for Spain.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

Right. And so Spain is back in the Euro cup because. And they're kind of known as like the kings of Euro soccer.

[Chrissy]

So.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, yeah, they've won, I think it's four times. And you know, there's a lot of countries in Europe that participate in this. So it's of kind. It's kind of extraordinary that Spain has been there so many times and the last time they won was a number of years ago and they wanted. Here's the thing about soccer. When you get into these tournaments, until you get to like the last part of the tournament, there are penalty kicks. Can decide. Do you know what that is? Shootouts. Penalty kicks. Yeah, there are penalty kicks. So if you go into time and then you go into overtime in some cases, depends on how the rules are set out. But you go into overtime, which is an extra 30 minutes and there's. It's still tied, which happens a lot inside. It does a lot.

[Chrissy]

Whenever I watch it. Yeah. I'm always surprised at that.

[Brian Green]

There's a lot of ball kicking and.

[Chrissy]

It'S like right down to the end.

[Brian Green]

Right? And so that. And that's how England won to get into the final. And so. And let me explain. So you get. Then you go into a penalty shootout where each team gets five tries, right? They said you put the ball in the middle 20, 30ft away from the goalie, the goalie has to stand on the goal line and then the shooter kicks, and then you either get it or not. And here's the thing. Having played soccer most of my childhood until I was like 17 years old, and being a goalie for a good partial portion of that, because I wasn't good enough to be anywhere else. They just figured, you know, just stand out there, put your hands. Put your big mocking hands up like this, Brian. And hopefully he'll catch something. But the coach used to always say, you cannot think fast enough. Your brain Cannot recognize where that ball is going fast enough. Pick a side and dive to it. Pick a side and dive to it. Doesn't matter. Right. You're going to get it 50% of the time. The other 50% of the time is going to be wrong. Doesn't matter. It's basically chance. It's all up to chance and whether or not the shooter has any accuracy into the goal, that's it. So winning on penalty kicks, in my opinion, is not really winning. Even though technically it's winning. It's kind of shitty way to win or lose or whatever it is.

[Chrissy]

I kind of agree with that because.

[Brian Green]

It'S kind of up to chance. It's like gambling, right? You're gonna. Sometimes you get it, sometimes you don't. So Spain plays. Yes. Sunday in the final. And I'm really, really hoping this doesn't go into penalty kicks. In.

[Chrissy]

Who were they playing?

[Brian Green]

They. They were playing England. Okay, so this is like a big deal. And it's in Germany, so it's England, Spain in Germany. Packed house. Of course, you can imagine. Imagine 50 Spanish, 50 English. At least that's the way it looked like on tv. What an exciting game. Yeah. And soccer is also one of those sports that's like a lot of kicking the ball and people throwing themselves on the ground, pretending they are hurt, punctuated by a few seconds of awesomeness. Right, right. So you have to really wade through a lot of not. It's like baseball. It's like there's, I don't know, and three hours of nothing punctuated by a couple seconds of really exciting stuff happening. And so soccer is this way. You have to be a very patient watcher. And soccer fans are fantastic. Bananas.

[Chrissy]

Oh, yeah. It's so big.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, it's like, you know, throw in. Wow. People go crazy, jump out of the stands. It's insane. So we had such a great time yesterday with the kids watching the, the. The game Spain won. We went nuts because that's our team. And we're like, oh, my God, you know, the WhatsApp group, 77,300 people deep, you know, going crazy. And it was awesome. And then it comes time for the Copa America, right? The America's Cup Final. And Biden is going to speak at 8 o'. Clock. The game is supposed to start at 8 o'. Clock. So what they say on the broadcasting station, which is Fox, we're going to start it on FS1, Fox Sports 1. And then we're going to move it over to Fox after the President speaks. We're Going to carry the president's remarks. That's going to be like five minutes. And then we'll be back after a of weeks, couple some analysis, say whatever they say. And so we're like, okay, so, you know, we watch the president do his thing and then they come back on air and they're like, oh, the game has been moved to 8:30 now 8:45, now 9 o', clock, now 9:15, now 9:30, now 9:45. And you're like, why in the fuck is this? So as you're. The kids are trying to get to sleep, and so I'm not really paying attention. I'm just thinking, oh, maybe, maybe they moved the time because President Biden spoke. I don't know. I have no idea. But then you start learning that what happened is hundreds, if not thousands and thousands of people without tickets bum rushed the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami to get in. Now, this happened in England a couple years ago. Do you remember this? Do you remember this, like, incident? They made a whole documentary about it. It was fascinating, but. But apparently they handled it much better than the people here in the United States. Hard Rock Stadium down in Miami. You'd think that, like, this isn't a small town, this is Miami.

[Chrissy]

Right?

[Brian Green]

Right. You'd think they have this covered seven ways to Sunday. Also Miami, huge Latin community. You would think they have this covered seven ways to Sunday. Like they're gonna. You're not allowed to get into the parking lot unless you have tickets. You're, you know, then there's a layer of security one and layer of security two. And then you get to the door and then you have to show your ticket. Then you get up to your seats and you have to show the person where you're sitting. That was not the case. There were literally videos of people breaking the air conditioning vents underneath the Hard Rock and crawling through the air conditioning vents to get into the stadium without tickets.

[Chrissy]

That is so nuts.

[Brian Green]

It's insane. At some point the police and security made a decision to just open up the gates, just let it flow, let it flow. Because people were getting crushed in the front and they were like, rather than have a bunch of dead people, like, we're gonna just let it go and then we'll try and find these people somehow, some way. And there's hundreds of videos out there on social media about secure, like, you know, people videotaping from the stands, how security was like, asking to see people's tickets and then pulling them out or people who had tickets. And then someone was sitting in their Seats and they were like getting into arguments about this or that the United States is about to host a World cup in two years and this is not a good fucking look. It really isn't. Like, I mean, this is. These people are crazy. Forget the politics. Soccer fans are fucking bananas. They are literally out of their minds. Yes, I, you know, listen, I love soccer as much as the next person. I love baseball, I love basketball. I watch college football. I love it. I, you know, I'm not smart about any of it. And I'm probably the last person you want to ask about any sporting event. But I like it. But I am not that into it where I'm going to go crawling through air conditioning vents to break into the stadium to go watch it. Isn't the coverage always better on TV anyway? Isn't it? Yeah, you can see everything that happens, right?

[Chrissy]

And have your drink and your food and. Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Chrissy, what are people thinking crawling through the air conditioner? What happens when you just start.

[Chrissy]

Serious fan.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. What happens when you're 50ft in the air? If you've been to the Hard Rock Stadium, which I have to see Coldplay, and by the way, it took me two hours to get out of that parking lot. So maybe it's just a clusterfuck at that stadium, I don't know. But when you see people pouring out of the 50 foot vent, just falling onto the pavement, wouldn't you think to yourself, well, I guess shit's gotten out of control. Yes. Shut her down. It was insane. People are insane over soccer. Really? You're gonna kill yourself over soccer. You're gonna kill someone else over.

[Chrissy]

So they were delaying the game and delaying the game because this was happening.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. What the safety of the players was at concern because, you know, when you have an unruly mob, you never know what's going to happen. Are they going to storm the field? Is it going to become a situation where there's so many people in the stadium it's not safe for anybody to be there? So I think they're making the right decision also. Let's be real about it. It's a televised event. It's a big televised event. And these two. And Messi, who is by some standards, or by some people's standards, the best player that ever lived. Like a soccer God. Right. Messi is playing in this and it might be his last one, might not be his last one, but he's playing because he's an Argentinian player. So he's playing and Colombia's playing and there's A huge Colombian contingent down in Miami. So it's like almost like home turf, I guess, you know.

[Chrissy]

Right.

[Brian Green]

And so it's just like, I think Fox is also. Probably has some hand in this. And they're saying, well, we're not going to broadcast a game with an empty stadium. Like, we need the excitement. We need the fans in there. We need this to be, you know, packed stadium. Now, I'm not saying that was like a purposeful decision that was made by Fox, but I'm sure that it played into some part of the thinking. We got to let the fans get in the seats so it can look good on tv, but then. So the fans who paid can also see it. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

If you bought a ticket and you were excited to go, you wanted to.

[Brian Green]

Be there, that's it. So they just kept delaying and delaying and delaying. So what did I. So what did Nasser and I do? We turned on 90 Day Fiance. That's what we did. 90 Day Fiance. The other way.

[Chrissy]

Oh, you did. You went back to the.

[Brian Green]

Wow. Well, I mean, it was on, so we wanted to watch the soccer game, but there was no soccer game. So we thought, well, let's just flip over to the other stations, see what's going on. And Michael came to America. Many of that know Michael. Michael, Angela.

[Chrissy]

Michael came finally.

[Brian Green]

He came finally.

[Chrissy]

I mean, that was. That's been the whole. I mean, God, I feel like it's been going on for how many years?

[Brian Green]

Seven. Seven.

[Chrissy]

Seven years.

[Brian Green]

If you don't know this storyline, I'm not going to explain it, but just know that Michael finally got to America and there's no rest for the women. Yes.

[Chrissy]

He's from Nigeria. And the other woman, Angida Angela, is like, you know, 30 years older than.

[Brian Green]

Him, but 80 years older than him. That lad looks so old. She got plastic surgery and she looks 10 times worse than she did before. She should have stayed just the way she was because, I mean, she wasn't. I mean, in my opinion, wasn't winning any beauty contests in the first place. But she looked fine. Like, fine. Okay. You know, carrying a looks. Right. Who doesn't carry a little extra weight these days? Right. But then she got. She got like, the stomach surgery and all that stuff, and now she's. Yeah.

[Chrissy]

So wait, did she still live in, like, the trailer park?

[Brian Green]

She lives in the trailer park in South Georgia. Well, she doesn't live in the trailer park anymore. Now she's got a house, I figure. But she's like a. A hoarder, apparently, because Michael gets there. He. She opens Up. This guy's from Nigeria. He's like, very clean and neat. He's like, you know, one of those guys who carries around a purse, like a Chanel purse or whatever. And then he's got the traditional garb on, but it's like, really nice garb. And he's got the fancy hat, you know. And so he gets there and he picks him up from the airport, or they get home from the airport, and she opens her bedroom door, and it is just shit from floor to ceiling.

[Chrissy]

Oh, no.

[Brian Green]

And he's like, angela, Angela, why such a mess, Angela? And she's like, michael, just move that out of the way. You always with me, Michael, just move that all the way. I gotta smoke a cigarette. I can't deal with this anymore. I can't deal with you, Michael. You always lying. You always lying, Michael.

[Chrissy]

Oh, my God. I can't believe he finally got there.

[Promo Voice]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

The next place she did, the first place she takes him is like the local barbecue and pickle place. And she's like, this is my favorite restaurant in all of Georgia. And I'm like, oh, my God. Oh, my God. And she's like, finally some real food. Not that pig's feet or whatever the you're eating over there. Pig's feet and otter toes. And he's like. And me and Esther were like, well, it's real food to him. And that's what he said. He goes, it's real food to me, Angela. But I'm telling you what, she didn't waste five minutes getting on his case.

[Chrissy]

Oh, my God.

[Brian Green]

He's in for a long life. Oh. And then apparently they come.

[Chrissy]

Has he moved? He's moved here, I guess.

[Brian Green]

I don't know. We didn't watch enough of it to, like, you know, we just watched a little bit of it that. That particular segment. The first thing she has him do is South Georgia. South Georgia. I can guarantee there has never been a hard freeze in South Georgia. Maybe. Maybe once in a bloomer. But it's like three days before Christmas. She's got them out there hanging Christmas lights. Michael's in, like, you know, full puffy coat, you know, hat, boots. Angela has, by the way, 322 grandchildren that apparently all live with him. And they all have attitude and they're like, your feet nasty. Your feet nasty. Those feet be clapping back at me, Michael, we gotta get you some lotion. And he's like, I don't know about these children. In America. They would be slapped in my country.

[Chrissy]

I can only imagine. God, I might have to go back and watch that.

[Brian Green]

God, it was too funny. We were laughing it up. Michael finally showed up, and he's. No rest. No rest. That guy's not getting a minute of rest.

[Chrissy]

Oh, he never will.

[Brian Green]

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. He's in the frame. He's gonna. He's in for a.

[Chrissy]

She's gonna ride him in a lot of different ways.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, he'll be back in Nigeria before too long. Things were fine where I was exactly.

[Chrissy]

Via Zoom.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, via Zoom. Zoom was working out great. He could turn her off whenever he wanted to. So, anyway, I just thought I'd share that, you know, what a show down in Miami.

[Chrissy]

I mean, man, I did not know that.

[Brian Green]

What's going on with the security in America? Oh, God.

[Chrissy]

Seems like.

[Brian Green]

See, look at that. Doing so great. Yeah. Lots of holes. What's up with that? I. I don't know. Anyway, you got to get your shit together before the World cup, because I can guarantee. Yeah, that was crazy. That's a crazy scene. You don't think the final. Whoever it happens to be is going to be three times as crazy? You can't let people without tickets within a mile of that venue. You just.

[Chrissy]

Atlanta is going to have some of.

[Brian Green]

That, like, seven games. We're going to have seven games. Games. But I don't know. I feel like Atlanta has always been good at crowd control. I. I. My personal opinion, I've been a lot of events with a lot of people, you know, music midtowns and big concerts and, you know, big festivals. And I feel like Atlanta always just, you know, has kind of had their collective together. But Atlanta is a big city, and the Atlanta Police Department is no stranger to, you know, big events, so. But, yeah, you got to get this stuff.

[Chrissy]

Miami would be used to it, too, you would think.

[Brian Green]

And it's the Hard Rock Coliseum. So it's. Or. Or whatever it is. The Hard Rock Cafe.

[Chrissy]

Coliseum.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, the Hard Rock Cafe. Is Hard Rock Cafe even a thing?

[Chrissy]

It is.

[Brian Green]

It is.

[Chrissy]

Well, I mean, yeah, there's one in downtown.

[Brian Green]

I went to the original one in England. When I was in London, I went to the original Hard Rock. And, man, did they have some merch there. I mean, do they have some real incredible, iconic merch guitar that Jimmy Hendrix set on fire, you know, Billy Joel's original fingers? I don't know.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, I just read a story about that, how it started recently, but, yeah, it's definitely still a thing. There's one in downtown Atlanta. There's. There's one out in Vegas. I mean, you know those Hard Rock hotels?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, yeah, the Hard Rock hotels are the thing now. And here's the thing. They have a huge Hard Rock hotel down in South Florida. Huge. I mean, it's like a. It's one of the. It's like a Vegas style resort that they put just north of Miami, I think, or in Winter Gardens or somewhere like Ocala or somewhere. I don't even know, but it is huge. So you'd think they. They kind of understand crowd control a little bit in general as a company and then as a police force, but they should have really prepared for that because it's not a good look to start two hours late and then it's not a great look to then have all these videos all over the place because. Place of people crawling through the air conditioning.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, I mean, that's something you see on, like, you know, spy shows.

[Brian Green]

You see it on cartoons. That's where you see it.

[Chrissy]

Or spy shows.

[Brian Green]

Yes.

[Chrissy]

You know, like Mission Impossible. They're crawling through event to get around the laser beams that are guarding the thing.

[Brian Green]

I know. Can you imagine taking a piss or like taking a piss and then some guy just falls out of the. Out of the air conditioning bin?

[Yuri]

Hola.

[Brian Green]

Hola.

[Chrissy]

Can you help me down?

[Brian Green]

Yeah, can you help me out, brother? Buy you a beer? No, no. I just make it a general rule to not help people out of the air conditioning unit. But, you know, good luck to you. Good luck to you. I wonder they made a human chain on the way down or like someone had a sheet they just, like, let down. I really wonder what happened to the. Yeah, and I saw the video. It was not like one guy. It was like people pouring into the air conditioning vent.

[Chrissy]

That is so wild.

[Brian Green]

Isn't that insane? God bless America. God bless America. Land of the free. Home of the stupid, I guess. I don't know. Okay, listen, we'll take a break and then we'll be back with, you know, more talking. Hi.

[Promo Voice]

No, you're not dreaming. And yes, this is a new promo. See, I made you wait and now look how happy you are. I know, I know. You're smiling. Anyway, since we're here, why don't you just hop on over to Instagram and give us a follow at the commercial break. Seriously, please. It's getting hard for me to listen to Brian and Chrissy beg. So just follow us on Instagram again. That's hecommercial break. You can also follow us on TikTok@TCB podcast. And of course, you know where to go for all things TCB. That is tcbpodcast.com, baby.

Bye.

[Brian Green]

Oh, my God. This might be like old news. Probably is, because you heard it here last. Except for today, you heard it here last. So you know Bill Belichick, we talked about this a couple of weeks ago.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

Bill Belichick is, I don't know, in his 70s.

[Chrissy]

He's dating like the 20 year old.

[Brian Green]

He's dating like a 23 year old. Right. So there's like a huge age difference. And I am not one to talk about age differences. I don't care. Who cares at the end of the day about age difference? But I was saying that I don't care if you're dating someone 23 years old in your 70s. Good. God bless America. That's. That's what the land of the free right there. You know, two consenting adults. Whatever happens, happens. But I was sharing that at some point. I think that age difference does become an issue. It's just too much of an age.

[Chrissy]

Between the two of you, I think.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Anybody else? But more about the like. Remember when takes on a whole new me for both of them, I mean.

[Brian Green]

We had to explain Dr. Ruth to people. He has to explain like World War II. Right. And you know, I can see that there's a lot of benefits for both of them, just on the surface. Right. I don't know. I'm not part of their relationship. I'm not here to cast aspersions, but I can see on the surface there's a lot of benefits to both of them. Bill. Bill Belichick will never want for anything in his life. He coached the Patriots for so long, he probably made, you know, $100 million over his coaching career, I would imagine. And she is obviously a lovely lady. And it's probably. She's easy on the eyes by all accounts. She's a very nice person. So, you know, there's a lot of benefits to, to both of them. I saw a video, like a ring doorbell camera. This, if this is real, and it looks real, it looks like this is Bill Belichick. A ring doorbell camera. She apparently lives in like, I guess. How do I put this? Like a triplex.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

Okay. And so you got to get in the front door before you get to the actual Apartment door. Other buildings. Like this is like a house that's divided up into multiple apartments. So there's one front door for everybody. And then you have your own front door somewhere else in the building. And so the ring doorbell or the camera outside catches Bill Belichick basically in his underwear. What? Like stumbling out of the house at like 7 in the morning. Like he was in sweatpants, actually, like pulling with a no shirt, like pulling up his sweatpants. Like going out to his car to get something. I don't know what, but I thought to myself. And he just like, you know, when you're in your 70s, you have a certain gait about you. You know, you're not dashing down the stairs, you're kind of gingerly hoping that you don't break a hip or something. And I was like, wow, that is a walk of shame of epic proportions. I mean, that guy, that guy, I can't even imagine.

[Chrissy]

That's interesting. He's even staying at her place. It is, yeah.

[Brian Green]

He's got to have a palatial estate somewhere, right? He lives in Miami. I'm sure. Like there's like, you get to that age, you've got a beach house somewhere, you got that kind of money somewhere. I mean, I don't know. But do you spend most of your time in New England when you're that age? I don't know, maybe you do. I've heard it's beautiful, but it was just like the funniest scene because there are like other triplexes around. It's like a dirt road parking lot. This is not the kind of place you would expect Bill Belichick to be stumbling out of. But man, is he stumbling out of it.

[Chrissy]

How did they know it was him?

[Brian Green]

Somebody probably knows that the girl lives in the apartment building. Probably everybody has access to the footage. Do you know what I'm saying?

[Chrissy]

I thought this was funny.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Just in case somebody comes to the door for them, they can see it or security. Yeah, whatever. But man, I'm telling you what, it was a sight to behold. I thought, man, I. I hope, I. I hope Astrod outlives me by 100 years. I hope that I'm the first one to go. But if I'm not, God forbid, if I'm not, I just remind me, Chrissy, if I ever get any wild hairs up my ass, you know, I go through my. Literally, I'm going to date. Yeah, I'm going to go through my. I want to date 20 year old stages. Just remind me of this episode.

[Chrissy]

I will.

[Brian Green]

And what an embarrassment. It would be my kids and my family. I mean, that's the worst part is that your family is checking it out. This poor girl's family is probably like, honey, we want to talk to you. Is he asking for a prenup? That's, that's all I gotta say. Is he asking for a free. What did you say your, your oldest age difference was? In dating, you said it was like 10 years.

[Chrissy]

Well, one time I went on a guy, a date with a guy that it was like 25 years and I knew quickly that it was not going to go anywhere because there were just too many things different that were different about everything. Yeah, yeah. My life experience compared with his.

[Brian Green]

Yes, it, it does get a little weird. And I've said this before and, and I, I'll share it again. There is an age difference between Astrid and I and it's not a, it's not a huge age difference, but it's also not two years.

[Chrissy]

And yeah, Jeff and I are eight and a half.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Esther and I are just a little bit a hair over that. And when I met Astrid, my brain instantly went to too young for me. Right. That's where it went. But when I knew nothing about her, when my, her aunt was trying to set us up, like, I just thought, what, what possibly in common?

[Chrissy]

Are you sure?

[Brian Green]

I am, yeah.

[Chrissy]

Actually, based on the girls you were dating before that, I would think that was maybe.

[Brian Green]

Well, okay, I dated a few girls that were younger than me, but it wasn't like I, I wasn't always dating younger girls. No. Yeah, yeah. I mean, like, you know, I dated a girl on and off for three or four years. It was three years younger than me.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

So it wasn't like a huge age difference, but. Yes, there was that one girl specifically. Yes. Oh, and that other girl. Yes, there were two. Two that were.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

In those two cases in where I dated girls that were younger than me, like I was 35 and they were like 21. Right.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

In those cases the age difference was talked about almost immediately and it was something that was a constant conversation. So. And it didn't work out. Why? Because the age difference, when it's constantly talked about it, it's almost like a, it's self manifesting. You all of a sudden you realize how old you are and how young they are and probably vice versa, of course. But with Astrid and I, once we started talking, it never even became an issue. I mean, we knew it was there. Obviously there's been conversation about it.

[Chrissy]

Yeah, it was more about the Person.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. And, you know, I would imagine now she's probably regretting her life decisions, but, you know, back then.

[Chrissy]

It was young love.

[Brian Green]

Yeah. Back then, I was still able to hop out of bed and keep up with her. Now I'm like, oh, my back. Oh, my knees. You gotta take the kids. Oh, my God.

[Chrissy]

I can't laugh too hard. I've got a cough.

[Brian Green]

I know. You sound like a dead horse today. What's going on? Yeah.

[Chrissy]

Well, I figured I was gonna get. So I have taken a coveted test, by the way.

[Brian Green]

No, Covid, but that's good because it's going around.

[Chrissy]

I figured I was not gonna get out of. Of going by planes, trains, automobiles, ferries.

[Brian Green]

Yeah.

[Chrissy]

All kinds of transportation on my trip.

[Brian Green]

All kinds of dry air and different.

[Chrissy]

Climate and that kind of thing, and come back and not have a little something. So here it is.

[Brian Green]

Well, congratulations to you.

[Chrissy]

Here's your dead horse.

[Brian Green]

That sounds a little weird. I think I've ever heard you sound like this.

[Chrissy]

I don't know. In four years. I've been sick before.

[Brian Green]

I know you've been sick, but I mean, this is like when you walked in the studio and you're like, hey, good morning. I was like, is she smoking again? I hope she's not smoking.

[Chrissy]

No, no, I've just got a little cough.

[Brian Green]

Maybe on the next episode or this week, I'll tell the story about the kid's birthday party.

[Chrissy]

Oh, this weekend that happened.

[Brian Green]

But in the group. I mean, in the total group. They came over to the house. There were a few smokers in the group.

[Chrissy]

Okay.

[Brian Green]

Still smoking cigarettes. And, man, I'll tell you what, I've said this before. It. I just love that smell when someone else is smoking. When I put it in my mouth, I quickly reminded of how I never want to smoke a cigarette again because it's kind of gross. And I was always sick when I was smoking cigarettes. Like, always sick when I was smoking cigarettes.

[Chrissy]

True.

[Brian Green]

So anyway, you know, I remember going.

[Chrissy]

To get you some chicken noodle soup one time from Fresh Market, and I put it by your office door.

[Brian Green]

Office door. Clear channel.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah, I do remember that. That. I do remember that. Yeah, I was sick a lot there. Probably because we got no sleep and alcohol and cheeseburgers were the only stress. Yes. Oh, God.

[Chrissy]

Between the stress and the partying, it was just. Which is why we partied, because we were so stressed.

[Brian Green]

But, yeah, it was a pressure recipe for disaster. And that's back when we still had it. Back when I was my wife's age.

[Chrissy]

I know I was in my 20s.

[Brian Green]

I know. It's crazy, isn't it? Yeah. I think I had. I think I had just turned 30 when I got that job. But anyway, I digress, so. Or no, maybe I was in my 20s, too. In my late 20s when I got there. Anyway.

[Chrissy]

Can'T laugh too hard.

[Brian Green]

I know. I'm trying not. I'm trying not to get on a giggle roll here because I don't want to hurt you.

[Chrissy]

Anytime I think about that era, makes me laugh.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, it was kind of calamity of errors with the gang that comes. Couldn't shoot straight.

[Chrissy]

He's been saying that phrase a lot.

[Brian Green]

I know. I think it's funny. I don't know. I've said it before in the past. It's been in my. You know, the lexicon.

[Chrissy]

Yes.

[Brian Green]

But I don't know, I just. All of a sudden I just started saying. So when Astrid and I met, we never talked about the age difference.

[Chrissy]

Well, wait. We were going back to the party on cigarettes?

[Brian Green]

No, I was just sharing with you that.

[Chrissy]

Oh, that was just that.

[Brian Green]

Yeah, that someone.

[Chrissy]

Someone smoked a cigarette.

[Brian Green]

A couple people were. Yeah, someone smoked a cigarette. I liked it. So Asher and I never talked about the age difference. And therefore, I don't think it ever really manifested itself into an issue. Now, it could become an issue when I'm in the old people's home and he wants to go travel. Bye.

[Yuri]

Bye.

[Chrissy]

The convertible.

[Brian Green]

I'm only 51.

[Yuri]

Yeah, it's. It's time. It's time. It's been time for a long time. Yuri, your youngest, is now 2. I'll take it from here. Don't worry about it. You relax.

[Chrissy]

It's been time for a long time.

[Yuri]

Yeah, you relax in the hospital bed. Let me take care of this.

[Brian Green]

Okay.

[Promo Voice]

Bye.

[Brian Green]

Bye.

[Yuri]

I love you. Kind of. I did.

[Chrissy]

I used to.

[Yuri]

I used to. I meant it when I said I do. And now I don't.

[Chrissy]

I can picture it now.

[Yuri]

Can I change my vows?

[Chrissy]

I'm so picturing this retirement home.

[Brian Green]

But I firmly believe that the age difference, you know, if you're talking about it, problematic problemo. If you're not talking about it, no problemo. Because age difference is a state of mind at the end of the day. But when there's 62 years age difference, that's a little. Or however long it is. 50 years or something like that. That's a little bit different. It's got to be. I. I can't imagine. And then, you know, you gotta. Your parents, neighbors are seeing that Bill Belichick your parents are probably younger than the guy that you're dating. Now that, that has got to be a little bit strange. That, in my opinion, has got to be a little bit strange. What kind of dinner is that, you know? Oh, I watched you when I was a kid. I used to watch you coaching football. Thanks for screwing my daughter.

[Chrissy]

Oh, yeah, that's a, that's a. Like you said, I think it's a relationship of mutual benefits that are happening. I don't see how you can get super, super deep and close yet.

[Brian Green]

I could see how you could have like intimate moments, right, like where you share, you know, I don't know, desires and dreams. I got to get more depends. Yeah, I gotta get more depends. I gotta register to vote for the first time. You know, there could be like things that, right, you know, could be going on. I can see like intimate moments and who knows, we're not inside the room. But I agree with you. Like, you know, when she's got. When I imagine if she's like any other 23 year old, like, I want to go out and party, I want to go to the club. I'm gonna go have dinner. The girls are gonna dress up, going to go on a girls trip, whatever. And he's like, yeah, I'm going to go get my prostate checked. It's just a little. It's got to be a little bit weird. Anyway, good luck to you, Bill. I hope that everything does. I. I'm rooting for you. I am. They met because they were many blessings. They. Yeah, many blessings. Happy trails.

[Chrissy]

Think about the, the text message that I got over the weekend that I sent to you.

[Brian Green]

Oh, yeah. Many, many happy blessings. You got a job opportunity? I did.

[Chrissy]

You did. I was recruited by someone from the company. Investor.

[Brian Green]

Investor.

[Chrissy]

Yeah.

[Brian Green]

An investor in capital letters. Like it had been filled in by AI.

[Chrissy]

I'm recruiting for this company Investor Investor quote, unquote. You only have to be 20 years old. You can make 50 to 15 hundred dollars a day and get paid that same day.

[Brian Green]

Yet boom. Damn.

[Chrissy]

Like I said, Brian, this is our chance.

[Brian Green]

I wish we got paid the same day here at the commercial break. Solve a lot of our issues.

[Chrissy]

This could be our side hustle.

[Brian Green]

This could be our side hustle.

[Chrissy]

I've always heard about that Company investor.

[Brian Green]

Look it up, it's great. Investor Inc. All right, let's give you a break. Let's give your voice a break for. Okay, I'm feeling for you now because I know what that's like because I've been in here in this studio, it's like an episode I listened to, I don't know, a couple months ago I was listening to an episode back, way back, season two or something like that, and I was sick. Maybe I was dealing with that salmonella or whatever. Yeah, man, I can't believe that we decided to. And that's back when we were doing one episode a week so we could have gotten away with just not doing it that particular day. And I sounded terrible. I couldn't even listen to myself in general. I can't listen to myself anymore.

[Chrissy]

I can't either. It's hard for me to go back.

[Brian Green]

I used to like turn it on and get excited in the morning. I'm like, whatever. Now I just find like rando podcasts, you know what I'm saying? And press play and hope that I find a. Yeah, a gem.

[Chrissy]

I like listening to other ones too.

[Brian Green]

I'm hoping that just like the commercial break, I find it listenable. But we'll see. Best of luck to Bill Belichick and his girlfriend and, you know, condolences to Dr. Ruth's family. I guess. I'm sure she has, I think she has children and. Yeah, rev down, rev down. Everybody take the, you got to take that steaming kettle off the pot, off the fire, whatever they say. Yeah, the stove.
