I wouldn't say I'm super successful, but I'm not doing meth, so, I mean, there's that.

[00:00:12]

On this episode of the commercial break, I cut out all the hobbies and brought in all the hoes. Don't worry about it. I'm your man. 18 years. That's right. I learned this one simple trick. Gunfingers. And now I'm getting laid more than ever.

[00:00:33]

Pew, pew, pew, pew.

[00:00:36]

The next episode of the commercial break starts now.

[00:00:41]

Yeah, boy.

[00:00:43]

Oh, yeah. Captain Kittens. Welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is the dean to my bodie, Kristen Joy hodly. Best to you, Kristen.

[00:00:50]

Best to you, Brian.

[00:00:51]

And best to you. Out there in the podcast universe, we're getting out the giggles. We took a blast from the past.

[00:01:00]

We did.

[00:01:01]

We were reminiscing about one time.

[00:01:04]

One time when we just did Tuesdays.

[00:01:06]

Yeah. Each week we thought that was difficult. We had reservations. We were like, well, it's kind of hard to get to the studio once a week. What the fuck were we thinking? Almost 600 episodes in 600 hours of this stupid show. And not all episodes are built the same, I'm gonna tell you that right now. Sorry for taking some time off earlier this week. Chrissy and I, one time we had this marketing idea. Not a marketing idea. It's not my idea. Lots of people have done it.

[00:01:38]

I think we probably took it from our sales background. Right? Radio sales.

[00:01:42]

Yeah, radio sales.

[00:01:43]

Just cold call.

[00:01:44]

Cold call people. Cold call other podcasts and ask them if they would be willing to promote our show. It's called a cross promotion. It's. Well, it's well worn territory. You hear other podcasts on our show. Sometimes they advertise on our show, or they get promoted on our show through our network odyssey, which is, you know, fine, you know, we like those shows. We agree to have them on our show. We agree to let them run those shows. But this is. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about long before commercials on the commercial break, like, episode number 30, 20, whatever it was, Brian was like, okay, we gotta get in this cross promotion game. So what I'm gonna do is let's look at the charts, and let's see who's close to us on the charts, and then if they're close to us, like, a little bit ahead of us, then let's cold call them. We'll ask them if they want to do a cross promotion.

[00:02:28]

We have one bite, and then we.

[00:02:30]

Can climb the ladder. So I must have emailed 48 podcasts.

[00:02:33]

We split the list. It was like you, me, and Astrid, and we split the list.

[00:02:37]

Yes. And I think one responded, and they were two really nice guys. They were, like, in Milwaukee or something. I can't even remember the name of the show. And they actually came on our show once. Remember that? We did an episode with those guys.

[00:02:49]

We did.

[00:02:50]

We did.

[00:02:50]

Okay.

[00:02:51]

I don't think we aired it, but we did that. But I think they did. I'm not sure. Maybe we did. I don't know. Anyway, we did. I can't even remember the name of the podcast. Wish I could. Nice guys. Super nice guys. And so they agreed to do this cross promotion. So Chrissy and I then had to do, for a 62nd, promoting audio and video about ourselves. And for the life of us, we cannot talk seriously about ourselves. If someone asks us to describe the podcast, it all falls apart. Yes. And so it's like. So we put together this blooper reel, and it must be like ten minutes long of Chrissy and I just fucking this thing up left and right.

[00:03:27]

I'm here to talk about him right now.

[00:03:28]

I'm here to. Hi, I want to talk to you about your growing body.

[00:03:34]

Do your balls drop?

[00:03:35]

Yeah. Hi, I'm Brian Green. This is Chrissy Hoadley. And forget about those other two guys.

[00:03:41]

Listen to hawks jump on over the commercial break.

[00:03:44]

Oh, we were so terrible. And I think eventually, two months later, we managed to get them the audio, and then they kept hitting us up and like, hey, you wanna do it again? And I was like, not really. Actually. I don't. I don't think that worked out for anybody, but okay. They. I actually.

[00:04:01]

Oh, the days. The golden days.

[00:04:03]

I remember recording with them in the old studio. The other bedroom in my house.

[00:04:06]

Yeah, the other bedroom.

[00:04:07]

Yeah. Smaller bedroom in my house. I remember recording with them, and we told them that we did billboards in Iowa, and they were like, what?

[00:04:15]

You did?

[00:04:15]

Yeah, I did. Oh, my God. The good old days when we didn't take this so seriously. Right, right. You know, more money, more problems. But we don't still have the money, but we have more problems for some reason. More people owing us money, more problems. How's that? Anyway, thanks for joining us today. I am still doing a little bit of recovery from the tar. So as we're recording, this is Thursday, so you're going to hear this tomorrow, on Friday. But if you heard yesterday's episode, then you'll know that I got some version, terrible version of food poisoning, along with multiple family members in the house, which made for a very interesting Monday. As the kid. Astrid said that, and I'll share this. Astrid said that when I was very sick in bed in the morning, at like nine or 10:00 in the morning, and she started to get sick, like, then she was throwing up. She came in the room, and she tried to rouse me to help her. And I just wasn't, like, there, you know, I was totally out of it. And so she said, okay, this is what I'm gonna do. She was saying to herself, this is what I'm gonna do.

[00:05:18]

I'm gonna go on the couch. I'm gonna tell the kids, I don't care what you do for the next 2 hours. Just please let mommy rest.

[00:05:25]

Right?

[00:05:26]

And she gave the baby her phone, which is like a big no no in our house, you know, but it's hard to keep the electronics out of the baby's hands. I'm constantly taking something out of her hands. Cause she's grabbing the. Grab an iPad or a phone. But as her. And I was like, honey, you gotta.

[00:05:42]

Do what you gotta do.

[00:05:43]

Yeah. At that moment, I would have done anything for some peace and quiet. Anything for some peace and quiet, including ignore you. Yeah.

[00:05:50]

Trying to wake me.

[00:05:55]

Pretend I'm asleep. Pretend I'm asleep. Pretend I'm throwing up. Go in the bathroom, be performative. Blah. God, there was no video of that. That'd be the end of our careers.

[00:06:09]

Well, actually, we've done that already. We've ended careers already.

[00:06:14]

Yeah. I did a cross promotion where I talked about my hemorrhoids, which I don't have. So the doctor sends a message to me yesterday. And yesterday I had the first meal in 48 hours. Just some rice and a little bit of meat.

[00:06:28]

Yeah, you got to go slow.

[00:06:28]

Yeah, you really do. And it wasn't a ton of food, but I was very hungry at that point, so I ate. Half an hour later, I'm right back to it. I'm right back. Feeling so nauseous, can't stand up. Tired, like weak, tired, like, out of breath. And so I thought to myself, Jesus Jones, am I gonna have to really go back to the doctor or the hospital? Because now I'm getting a little bit concerned that this has gone on for more than 48 hours.

[00:06:52]

Right.

[00:06:53]

Which is when they say, like, if you have food poisoning, goes on for more than 48 hours, you should see some kind of medical attention. So I was like, okay. Anyway, doctor calls to check on me, leaves me a message telling me that I should get this, like, iv in a packet. You know what I'm saying, like, this.

[00:07:09]

Liquid iv, something along those lines. Electrolytes?

[00:07:11]

Yeah, that's not what it's called, but. And I don't want to name the brand, but. So I got it and I actually, we had a pack of it in the house and I didn't know. We have like, this box full of, like, generally related medical shit, like dog moans. There's like, weird stuff in there. It's like the emergency family.

[00:07:28]

Old eye drops.

[00:07:29]

Yeah, old eye drops that no longer have any liquid in them. Yes. Penicillin from 2017.

[00:07:35]

Chores every once in a while, I've.

[00:07:36]

Noticed, yeah, we have a box and it's supposed to be for like, medical related stuff, but I've noticed it's become kind of a drop all. There's extra batteries that don't work anymore. I'm like, what dumbass put this in there? Probably me.

[00:07:49]

Probably.

[00:07:50]

So I went, I thought, oh, I think we have this somewhere. And I did. I found a box of it and now I remember why it's not been used in probably seven years. It's because it's fucking terrible.

[00:08:03]

Oh, it tastes bad.

[00:08:04]

Oh, it's terrible, Chrissy. It's terrible. It's like peach flavored, no sugar in it whatsoever. Drop it in 16oz of water and then try not to throw up again while you're drinking it. But supposedly it's got, you know, a thousand percent of the electrolytes you need, you know, blah, blah, blah. A thousand percent more than Gatorade and all that stuff. It's really. It's really rough recovering. I think. I think I got it bad. I think I got it really bad.

[00:08:27]

I know I'm feeling pretty punchy too. Not because I was sick, but just from coming back from Pacific coast time. I know you feel so sorry.

[00:08:38]

I do. I'm really. I have a lot of empathy for where you're at, Chrissy. I would have given anything to go to Seattle in Vancouver. Anything to go to Seattle and Vancouver. But it didn't work out this time. Maybe next time it'll work out next summer.

[00:08:53]

That's where we're doing the podcast from, remember?

[00:08:55]

I would.

[00:08:55]

You agreed.

[00:08:56]

I agree.

[00:08:57]

I think you must have agreed while you were probably a fever dream. Throw in between throwing up.

[00:09:03]

Yeah.

[00:09:04]

You said, let's do it.

[00:09:05]

I managed to struggle through yesterday, and I just think that took all the energy out of me. We had a big interview yesterday. We did. We did. That we now can't talk about, but it's okay. Well, I mean, we're gonna release the episode we just can't talk about.

[00:09:18]

Just so you know, we actually did get breaking news. We got something first. And that's the reason they're not allowing us to now talk about it.

[00:09:25]

We got an A list celebrity to come in here and then he dropped a bomb. Like a big hey. Announcement. And then. Hey, can you hold off on that?

[00:09:38]

We were so excited after the interview.

[00:09:40]

We were so excited.

[00:09:40]

Right around the house. Astrid put the Instagram reel together.

[00:09:43]

Get the Instagram reel together. We're going to send this out in the next couple of weeks. We got to get on this super hot right now. And then 2 seconds later the agent emailed. They're lovely people, by the way. And of course we agree to it because who the fuck is going to come here to break information? It just happened to be when Time magazine will probably pay you $100,000 for this information. You're not going to come to the commercial break and drop it for free. They probably looked at our Instagram and were like, I'm not giving these nude Nixon exclusive. Fuck that. Where's Rogan? Or Heather McMahon or somebody that's interested. But anyway, stay tuned for that next year. No, it's fine. I'm making a joke out of it, but it's fine.

[00:10:26]

It's just pretty funny. It's the ways that the tide turns at the commercial breaks beach.

[00:10:31]

That's what happens when you play with the big dogs. You get balls in your face sometimes I guess somebody humps your leg. But stay tuned for that nebulous announcement later on down the road. No, we're very excited about this one. And when the time comes, you will know about it because I will make sure that you do. So anyway, today is Friday. And happy Friday to you. And I'm so glad it's Friday. I'm so glad tomorrow it's Friday.

[00:11:06]

Me too.

[00:11:07]

We got the kids birthday party this weekend. So we're gonna have a big hubaloo here at the house with a lot of young un's running around in the pool. I made the smart decision to get a lifeguard.

[00:11:17]

I like that.

[00:11:18]

Listen, I'm not gonna fuck around here. I don't wanna be liable. And I don't want anybody in my family to not wanna live at this house because of the bad memories. You know what I'm saying? I don't know. There's some weird thing that I have where I don't wanna stain my house forever. So I decided to get a lifeguard. We have a pool in the backyard. The kids really wanted to do a pool party. It's an inexpensive way to have a birthday party. God knows we need inexpensive right now. So I said, I agreed to it. Last year, they wanted the same thing. I said, no, you're too young. A bunch of young toddlers in a pool, it's like a nightmare to me. So this year, I said, okay, you're a little bit older now. You know how to keep your head above water, mainly. So, okay, but let's. I told Astrid after we agreed to this, I said, let's get a lifeguard. And she was like, a lifeguard? Can you, like, rent a lifeguard? I'm like, I'm sure you can. Somewhere. So we go to, like, one of those lifeguarding services websites that, like, you know, farms out lifeguards.

[00:12:13]

And it was, like, $150 an hour to hire this, to hire a lifeguard that's trained in CPR. And I was like, okay, I guess, but don't the kids at the pools, local community pools, don't they. I was a lifeguard.

[00:12:29]

They had to take training.

[00:12:30]

Yeah, they'd have to take training. I was a lifeguard. I think I made, like, $7 an hour.

[00:12:34]

That's correct.

[00:12:34]

That was 1942, but I think I made, like, $7 an hour.

[00:12:38]

Yeah, our kids were lifeguards, too.

[00:12:40]

And it's a great way over the summer to get a tan and make money.

[00:12:44]

Exactly.

[00:12:44]

That's it. Yeah. Adult swim. You get 15 minutes in the pool by yourself. What else could you ask for? So, what's it called? Like, all swim or all break?

[00:12:52]

Adult swim.

[00:12:52]

Adult swim. Yeah. But I've been to pools where it's, like, adult swim, but the adults can't swim either. Like, everybody out of the pool kind of thing. And then, you know, the kids are all, like, waiting.

[00:13:00]

Oh, I mean, right by the side.

[00:13:03]

Yeah. They, like, stick a foot in, and.

[00:13:04]

The lifeguards.

[00:13:12]

Get out of the pool. Adult slam. Adult flame. Oh, come on, man. It's almost been 15 minutes. Adults. That's what they would do. You'd go, Adolphan. Adolfo. I remember I had that little megaphone just like this. Adult firm. Adult firm. Which really meant that I had to take a shit or something. Adult friend don't swim. My friend's coming by with a line of cocaine. I'm gonna be the best lifeguard ever for seven minutes until I need another line of cocaine.

[00:13:41]

A shotgun of beer.

[00:13:43]

A shotgun of beer. Oh. So I said, we have neighbors. Those neighbors have kids that are, like, 1817, 1819 years old. They have to know somebody.

[00:13:54]

Did you put it on next door.

[00:13:56]

No, no, no. I can only imagine the responses I would get from nextdoor.

[00:14:02]

That would have been a good little way to dip your toe.

[00:14:05]

Spotted squirrels stealing nuts. Thanks, dear. On river Road. Okay, what do you want me to do with that information? So that's what we did. So we called the neighbors and they quickly said, yes, absolutely. We know a bunch of people who are lifeguards. Let us get you in touch. And we got a more reasonable rate. Fair rate, but a more reasonable rate. And we said, hey, listen, 4 hours, no breaks. You're in charge, but you get fed. And if you want to, I guess if you want to, you can do those 15 minutes, you know, kind of adult swim things. We get the kids out of the pool, take a break, you know, wherever. And then if you want, really want to.

[00:14:44]

You said 4 hours, no breaks.

[00:14:46]

Oh, 4 hours. Meaning like. Yeah, no breaks. Meaning you can take the. Well, not technically no breaks. You know what I'm saying? Like, you can't take an hour off. You can't. You can't go from like twelve to one and then come back at two. You know, take.

[00:14:58]

Okay, yeah. So you can actually take a break within those hours.

[00:15:03]

Take a break within those hours. But not a break. You can take a break, but not a break break. Not a break. Just a break. Not like the commercial break. 700 episodes in. Yeah, but a break, break, break. You know what I'm saying? You get it?

[00:15:15]

I get it now.

[00:15:17]

Okay. So that's what I tell. And I'm. And I'm just so happy that I made this decision. It makes me feel so much better about the whole situation. I feel myself like I'm out there today, you know? The other thing is people coming over to your house. You gotta clean the fuck up. Pressure wash the house. It's a whole thing for like, you know, twelve people and six kids who don't give a shit about whether or not what your house looks like. They just care if the water's warm. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, but I do. I was thinking to myself this morning, I'm like, I do feel really relieved. That was a good decision. And now I'm thinking I'm just gonna do that every afternoon with my own kids too. I'm gonna get a lifeguard to stand post. I'm like, you wanna go out to the pool? Knock yourself out.

[00:15:51]

Yeah.

[00:15:51]

Because yesterday, trying to take all those kids to the pool, one parenthood is impossible.

[00:15:57]

Well, I mean, 30 kids in the pool at once?

[00:15:59]

Jeez, Chrissy.

[00:16:00]

Wow.

[00:16:00]

You know, you want a pool, you want a pool, you want a pool. And then you realize that a pool is like a boat. It's a hole where money gets sunk into. And stress comes every day. Every time I look at that pool, some kind of stress. The chlorine levels are bad. The leaves are on the bottom of the pool. I gotta put the pool cleaning robot on. One of my children is floating on the top of the water. I should go get them. And, you know, I was telling you this story yesterday.

[00:16:24]

Yes. About when you were on a call.

[00:16:26]

I was on a call, and I was taking the kids out to the pool, finishing up the call. So we have this deck that sits above the pool, and we can close the gate so they can't get anywhere near the pool, and we can close and lock this gate. So I open the gate, and my older kids can generally hold themselves above water, but, you know, one of the younger ones, she is just learning how to swim. And so she needs to stay close to the shallow end of the pool near a wall where she can grab onto. She gets tired, get scared, or whatever. So I am finishing up this call, and I say, okay, kids, sit on the stairs of the pool. Like, sit with your butt outside the pool. Put your feet in the pool. Sit. I'm going to go turn on the filter, and then I'll be back. And so I go. And I go to turn on the filter. I come out, I'm still on the phone with my earbuds in. And this. I wasn't gone 30 seconds. And that daughter, who doesn't yet know how to quite swim, but can kind of keep herself above water, is in the middle of the fucking pool struggling to keep herself above water.

[00:17:20]

So I literally flipped my earbuds out of my ear and jumped in the pool with my phone in my fucking pocket.

[00:17:27]

You have to.

[00:17:28]

Yeah. And it was like, you know, a whole scary moment. You know, she cried for, like, five minutes. And I'm like, it's okay. Listen, these things are gonna happen. But this is why you gotta listen to daddy. But you can't be afraid now. You gotta. You gotta keep doing it. Like, you know, these kind of things are gonna happen. It just makes you realize that you have to keep your head above water. You gotta keep. Keep treading water. So it's this whole thing. And listen, five years from now, I won't even worry about this shit. It'll be like, everybody knows how to swim, fine, whatever. But it's just like a little bit.

[00:17:52]

No, it is. That is a little unnerving to be responsible for lives.

[00:17:57]

Yes. And when you have a pool, fuck Instagram and Facebook and all that shit. Because. And TikTok. Cause when you have a pool, they know you have a pool. And so when they know you have a pool, all they do is serve you up bad stories about what happens in a pool. You know what I'm saying? And it's just terrible. I'm not even gonna mention the stories because I don't want to make light of any of it, but it's just like. It's just like, terrible story after terrible story. Safety tip after safety tip. And it just makes you so fucking paranoid. You're like, oh, my God. That happened to them. That can happen to me. Oh, my God.

[00:18:27]

Thank God for the lifeguard.

[00:18:28]

Yeah. So if you're out there in your lifeguard and you want to make a couple extra bucks, I need somebody from four to 06:00 p.m. every weekday until it gets cold. How do you do that?

[00:18:36]

Which is going to be November or December here in Atlanta.

[00:18:39]

Really? That pool will not be swimmable. Probably sometime in, like, by thanksgiving. But I'll stop really, like, cleaning it every single day. Probably around Halloween, because that's like. Then you're. I'm like, fuck it. I don't want to do this anymore.

[00:18:54]

I don't want to do much.

[00:18:55]

It's too much. I mean, you do your own pool, then figure out what goes on. Anybody has a pool knows that. Anybody's a pool or a boat knows what I'm talking about.

[00:19:04]

Speaking of pools and Halloween, actually, I just this morning read a little tidbit in one of my newsletters about how, like, what is it? Pool a ween.

[00:19:13]

Pool a wee.

[00:19:14]

It's a thing.

[00:19:15]

It's a thing.

[00:19:16]

And where they have different. They're bringing Halloween elements to pool parties.

[00:19:21]

Really?

[00:19:21]

Yes. Like little ghost burgers.

[00:19:24]

Trick or swim or something.

[00:19:25]

Yeah, trick or swim. You could have some, you know, pumpkins and ghosts and things. And I thought, you know what? See, remember a little while back, I was telling you I went. I got early on the Halloween stuff.

[00:19:36]

Really early.

[00:19:37]

Well, they mentioned it. They go, pottery Barn has already got their stuff out. I was like, yep, that. That was me. I ordered from Pottery Barn.

[00:19:44]

Oh, my God.

[00:19:45]

So it's a thing. So maybe I should have brought over the skeletons, propped him up out back at the pool.

[00:19:52]

If you don't learn how to swim, that's gonna be you.

[00:19:55]

Exactly.

[00:19:55]

Yeah. I mean, then I got these nudnick friends who are like, just throw them in the pool.

[00:19:59]

No, I've got this friend.

[00:20:02]

His philosophy is they just have to learn to swim on their own. Right? Just let him figure it out. And I'm like, that is traumatizing. Ever. It is traumatizing. It is not the right way to teach.

[00:20:11]

I mean, listen and trust for whoever's throwing you guys.

[00:20:15]

Yes. It's just crazy. Like, throw them in the pool, they'll learn how to swim. No, they won't. That's not true. That's not true. Now, to be fair to his children, they do know how to swim, so I guess they figured it out. And I'm not saying that, like, there's. I'm not saying that, like, around the edges. There's not something valid there. Like, you do have to let them figure it out. You can't be on top of them every minute. Right? And I was with my first child on top of that kid. Like, I was holding him every moment. Like, anytime he tried to get in anywhere near danger in the pool, I was like, putting him back on the wall. But you have to let him kind of figure it out. But to leave a child alone just to figure it out and let him swim, that's not something we naturally know how to do. I don't know if you know, but we lost the gills a long time ago.

[00:20:56]

Yeah. You have to at least have a couple lessons. My God.

[00:20:59]

You have to learn how to float, right? And then I see them doing these babies with the little rings around their head, and I'm like, it's cute, but is that really what we want to do with our kids? Seven little bobbing, little baby heads all over my pool? No, those kids turn old enough. I'm going to turn this into a wave pool. That's what I'm going to do. I'm going to get one of these wave pool.

[00:21:18]

You need a good slide, too.

[00:21:19]

I do need a good slide, but that's another liability. When we first bought this house, it had, like a. This pool was from, like, the 1960s.

[00:21:26]

Yeah.

[00:21:27]

It's big, it's deep, and it's, like, totally rectangle. There's no personality about the pool whatsoever, but it had one of those diving boards, like a rusty old diving board that sat, like three and a half, 4ft above the water. We're talking, like, you know, you saw those guys in, like, mankinis back in the sixties that would, like, do the pretty dive, you know, like, whoo. Swan dive off, you know, and that kind of vibe going on to it. And the first thing I told the pool guy. When we got this house, I was like, take that fucking thing off there. That looks like a nightmare waiting to happen. He's like, yeah, almost nobody puts diving boards on their. On their pools anymore. I can understand why. He's like, they're just too much. Like, there's too many things that can go wrong. And I thought to myself, yeah, well, now, sometimes I'm like, I wish I had that diving board. I wish I had that diving board. Not for the kids, but for me. All right, so today is Friday. You know what that means? That means that we are going to review a video. Normally on Fridays, that's what we do.

[00:22:25]

It's been a while since we've checked in with a guy named Adam the Liar, what we call Adam the Liar. Adam Lyons, he is a multifaceted, multi entrepreneur with many career moves throughout his tenure on YouTube. And he's been a pickup artist. He's been a social media expert. He's been an entrepreneur expert. I think he had a podcast where he was commenting on Hollywood and entertainment. He was like a TMZ guy there for a minute. And he's going back to his roots and telling us more about women and how we should not be afraid of them. I don't know if you guys remember this, but I've shared that there was a gentleman named Paul in my early life, like, in my 1920 years old. During the Olympics, Paul hired me to be a painter and then to sell t shirts at the Olympics, of which we sold none because they were those color changing t shirts. Like, when they got wet, they would change colors. We had one version in 65 different sizes, and we didn't sell one t shirt at the Olympics. But Paul spoke like this. He was like, hey, Brian, how you doing today?

[00:23:25]

And I'd be like, yeah, I'm good. And he'd be like, I think you're still at the age where you're scared of pussy. Which, by the way, I think Paul, looking back on it, may have been, like, autistic or something a little bit.

[00:23:37]

But looking back on it, he had wisdom.

[00:23:39]

He envisioned himself a cocksman, you know, he envisioned himself a ladies man. But even at my age, I could tell that that may have been a stretch. A little bit like, getting laid once is not a ladies man. But he would say some things I look back on now, and I go, that's fucking prophetic, man. You really nailed it. And he would say, you're still at the age where you're scared of pussy. And I always thought to myself, yeah, yeah, Paul whatever. But now I realize, even though it was crassly said, he was right. I really was and still am to this day, scared sometimes of the female form because it's so incredible. I don't know what to do with it. And complicated, quite frankly.

[00:24:22]

There's a lot going on.

[00:24:23]

So Paul, I mean, Paul was saying that way back when, now Adam has got his own version. It's what, like, essentially why you're still scared of women. So when we get back from this break, we're gonna listen to that. What do you think?

[00:24:39]

I think it sounds good.

[00:24:40]

Okay. I'm in my awkward transition.

[00:24:42]

I'm Chrissy. This is Brian.

[00:24:43]

This is Brian. And this is why you're scared of pussy.

[00:24:47]

We'll be back.

[00:24:48]

We'll be back. Hi.

[00:24:52]

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 hecommercialbreak. Seriously, please. It's getting hard for me to listen to Brian and Chrissy Begg.

One of our favorite characters on the Internet is Adam the liar, also known as Adam Lyons. And he's multifaceted. He's really had a lot of different iterations.

[00:26:27]

Yeah, he really was a social. We watched him be like a social media and marketing expert.

[00:26:31]

That's how we met him, because we thought he was a social media marketing expertise. And then the next thing we know, he's a pickup artist. And then the next thing we know, he's an expert on polygamy. And then he has a girlfriend, a baby, a woman that's pregnant. He went through all these iterations, and what I've noticed about Adam is he's been mostly quiet on the Internet for about four or five months in general. And so I was curious, where did Adam go? What did he do? And what I found was a video where he's talking about, don't let yourself be scared of women. Don't let this be the reason you're scared of women. And so I thought, oh, that's an interesting video. Like, clearly he's. He's saying something where we might actually get some information here. Knowledge which he's never dropped. The guy is full of bluster and bullshit. I'm telling you right now, he's probably not going to tell us anything we need to know. But I'm going to give him a shot. Because, you know, in my heart, I have, like, a love hate relationship with some of these guys on the Internet.

[00:27:26]

Of course, I hate what they stand for. I hate what they talk about. I hate the way that they but little women and generally try and make picking people up a scientific art form that it's not. There's no such thing as a scientific art form. You done, Nick? But I love him because he's giving us content for the show. So there you go.

[00:27:45]

And it is Summerween.

[00:27:46]

It is Summerween here in a correct myself here.

[00:27:49]

Wasn't poola ween. It's Summerween.

[00:27:50]

Summerween.

[00:27:51]

Just look at it on Insta.

[00:27:52]

That feels like a, I don't know, wean's farewell tour or something. Summerween. The summer of sponsored by 99 x. That's Summerween. All right, so let's get into it. Without further ado, I was trolling on.

[00:28:07]

The Internet, as you do.

[00:28:09]

As I do like to do. Sometimes. Most times every night. Yeah, Astrid has access. You know, Astrid controls the Instagram, but I have access to our Instagram so I can switch accounts. And she's like, Brian, when I go to the search function on our Instagram account, she's like, it is highly disturbing. It is either girls in bikinis or some grandpa spouting nonsense about how the birds are. Birds aren't real. And I was like, hey, babe, it's the cost of doing business.

[00:28:42]

That's right.

[00:28:42]

And she's like, why the bikinis, though? And I'm like, I don't know. They keep serving them up to me. And I look at them, and then they keep serving me more. I don't know. Ah, you can take the Brian out of the fight, but you can't take the fight out of the fight.

[00:28:56]

Well, let's give an inspiring quote. You know, they have to have those quotes with them.

[00:29:00]

Yes. God forbid. Yes.

[00:29:04]

The thong.

[00:29:05]

There is no acceptance without acceptance. Here's my nipple.

[00:29:12]

Exactly.

[00:29:13]

Oh, there's this person on the Internet, this person on Instagram I've talked about a lot, actually. I think, in general. Lovely human being. But it's just been funny to watch over the last couple of years how she went from, like, the anti influencer. She hated everything that the influencers did. You know, tit pics and, you know, showing their ass and half naked and all this, and putting the inspirational quotes below to being that influencer. I mean, there's not really much influence there, but I just see the change, the progression, and I'm like, she got sucked in.

[00:29:45]

She did.

[00:29:45]

Fuck. She got sucked in to. And I really appreciated her stance on the whole thing. And now I'm like, well, another one bites the dust. That's why we're all fucked, kids.

[00:29:53]

You have to live your life.

[00:29:54]

You have to live your life. Vote. That's all I gotta say. All right, here we go. Adam the lion. Adam the liar. Adam the lion.

[00:30:02]

Adam lion the liar.

[00:30:03]

Yeah. Adam the lion. It's the newest Disney movie from Pixar and Disney. Adam the lion. Watch as he chases pussy and puts 15 girls in his rotation.

[00:30:16]

I genuinely believed that I was scared of approaching women, like many men around the world. In fact, I remember staring at incredibly beautiful women, thinking that I could never talk to them. Seeing these gorgeous models in ads and videos on the Internet, and thinking they're the kind of women that guys like me could never get into a relationship with. And I genuinely believed that I was scared of talking to them because I knew that nothing was gonna happen, but it wasn't.

[00:30:43]

I was genuinely scared of talking to the women in my ads.

[00:30:46]

That's right. That's right. The women that I post all over my instagram. That's why I started a social media company. You, too, can be successful if you pretend to be successful.

[00:30:59]

Because I was scared of approaching. That is just what I told myself. Cause at the time before, I like.

[00:31:05]

How Adam is, like, in a room in, like, his house, and there's books back there.

[00:31:09]

Six degrees.

[00:31:10]

Yeah, like, he's read them or something, and he's got six different degrees. They're just blurred enough so you can't actually, see what they are. The United Federation of Pickup Artists.

[00:31:22]

Gold stamp.

[00:31:23]

Gold stamped, framed. 79.99 plus $0.90 shipping and handling. You two could be certified by the United States association of.

[00:31:32]

What does he have back there? It almost looks like, too. He's got, like, gold records or something.

[00:31:38]

I don't know, Chrissy.

[00:31:39]

Foil posters?

[00:31:40]

Those aren't Emmys, that's for sure. It's awards from his own company to himself. I awarded myself with employee of the year.

[00:31:51]

I started getting into dating. I was a janitor. I liked painting dungeons and dragons miniatures.

[00:31:56]

What?

[00:31:57]

I liked martial arts.

[00:31:58]

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

[00:32:00]

Back up, back up, back up. You were a janitor?

[00:32:03]

No. Oh, my God. We never heard that. I didn't realize he was a janitor when he first started.

[00:32:09]

Eight mad props.

[00:32:10]

And then he got into martial arts.

[00:32:11]

Yeah.

[00:32:12]

Yeah, it showed him.

[00:32:13]

I was sick of wrestling with those five year old kids in the kindergarten class in that school I was in. They made fun of me. I got terribly bullied. So I went to martial arts and learned how to kick their asses.

[00:32:26]

Oh, I like dungeons and dragons.

[00:32:29]

That's how you always painting dungeons and dragons.

[00:32:31]

Figures and figuring. And now he's got a wok.

[00:32:34]

He's got a walk.

[00:32:34]

I like cooking food.

[00:32:35]

Walk with yon. Do you remember that show, walk with yon? You don't?

[00:32:39]

No. But I do love cooking shows.

[00:32:42]

Yeah. Okay. I won't even get into it. It's not even worth talking about. But it was a funny show. Yeah. So. Okay. All right. Adam's more. Adam's more than just tittles and bits. Tittles and bits. I'm a grumpfruit and reading really dumb.

[00:33:02]

Things on the Internet.

[00:33:03]

Yep.

[00:33:03]

Just, like, wasting my time. And I believed I was scared of approaching, and I'd actually allowed people to get it into my head. Like these dating forums back in the day, they told me I have approach anxiety. But after 18 years of teaching dating, now I've come to learn.

[00:33:21]

After 18 years of teaching dating, I finally learned how to do it myself.

[00:33:27]

That's what those degrees are in the background. It's a degree in teaching dating.

[00:33:31]

Teaching dating. That's right. From the International association of poise, the Iapua. The.

[00:33:41]

Do not actually have approach anxiety. We're not scared of approaching beautiful women. We're scared of what to do next. We're scared that once a woman actually gets to know you, that then they're going to reject you. And so what I did was I didn't approach, because I'd already told myself I was going to fail.

[00:34:01]

Okay, valid bit of information here. I actually agree with this. I think that a lot of people, especially young, younger folks, I say younger folks. If people in their, like, you know, late teens, twenties, they get scared of dating because they're scared of being vulnerable and rejection. But that's a. That's. It's gonna happen. Like, there's no success without failure, for sure. So I agree with him on this. Okay, Adam, I like where you're going with this. You might win me over yet. Adam. No, I've done way too far.

[00:34:30]

Gone woman didn't reject me. I rejected myself. And the thing that.

[00:34:36]

No penis. I'm not going to whack you off today.

[00:34:41]

What was holding me back in my head was my career. Cause I was a janitor and my hobbies, and I genuinely believed that, you.

[00:34:48]

Know, can you stop saying the word genuinely, please? Okay, we get it. You're trying to be sincere.

[00:34:55]

Dungeons and dragons miniatures, you know, cooking stupid meals for my friends, martial arts. Being a janitor, I genuinely.

[00:35:02]

My friends, I genuinely believe that these stupid meals wouldn't get me anywhere. Cause no woman likes when a man cooks.

[00:35:11]

Exactly.

[00:35:11]

Exactly. Come on, dude. Really? And by the way, no one gives a shit that you're a janitor. I mean, there are lots of women that would give a shit that you're a janitor, but there are plenty of women that wouldn't give a shit to your janitor.

[00:35:21]

No, exactly.

[00:35:22]

They would like that you're gainfully employed.

[00:35:23]

Exactly. It's a good job.

[00:35:26]

Matt Gastrid. You think janitor is bad? Try being the host of the commercial break.

[00:35:35]

And also, he's, like, putting himself down for being in martial arts. What's wrong with that?

[00:35:39]

Yeah.

[00:35:39]

Being able to defend yourself and get in shape. What?

[00:35:42]

Yeah.

[00:35:43]

Not buying cooking. Getting in cooking.

[00:35:46]

Getting.

[00:35:46]

Knowing how to clean.

[00:35:47]

Gainfully employed. I was too afraid that women would be like, don't want it, don't need it. No, no, Simon. Carl says no. You're a loser for all the following reasons. You're sincere and self aware and have employment and cook wonderful meals, take women out on proper dates and know how to speak on the phone. They are going to hate you, Adam.

[00:36:18]

Those things held me back, and it turns out that those things actually ended up being the thing that made me.

[00:36:24]

Well, good for you.

[00:36:26]

Good for you.

[00:36:27]

And, you know, when I first started learning dating, we're going back, like, 18 years now.

[00:36:33]

How old are you? 18 years now.

[00:36:38]

We're going back 18 years.

[00:36:41]

Way back to 2007.

[00:36:48]

I decided to give up all my hobbies. I decided I wouldn't tell anyone I was a janitor. I stopped painting miniatures and doing photography. I literally.

[00:36:57]

You did all the things. You quit all the things that women would find to do. Yeah. By the way, I think just having.

[00:37:05]

Canceled everything and just focused on dating because there's also a thing at the bottom. What is that? It's words.

[00:37:12]

The captions canceled everything and just focus on dating. I cut out all the hobbies and brought in all the hoes. Don't worry about it. I'm your man. 18 years. That's right. I learned this one simple trick. Gun fingers. And now I'm getting laid more than ever.

[00:37:37]

Pew, pew, pew, pew. Everything. And just focused on dating. And I got some results. Like, I definitely got some dates, but it wasn't amazing.

[00:37:48]

Now probably not for them either, right? I don't wanna put words in their mouth.

[00:37:52]

Quit my job, quit cooking, quit martial arts. Just focused on dating.

[00:37:57]

That's right. By the way, sometimes you just have.

[00:37:58]

To give up everything and focus on.

[00:38:00]

Yeah, sometimes you just need to focus on dating, I guess. I quit my job. I focused on dating. It's unbelievable. I wish I had that luxury in my life. By the way, don't you think that, like, in today's day and age, just the fact that he has a hobby is, like, an attractive quality? Like something outside of scrolling on the Internet, right?

[00:38:23]

No. To me, martial arts, photography, cooking, cleaning. I mean, those are all attractive things.

[00:38:27]

This is like, he's kind of slyly pat himself on the map. Yeah, I was a really well rounded guy.

[00:38:33]

You know my dating journey. You'll know that within the first year of me. Studying dating.

[00:38:38]

Studying dating. Where are these guys going for this? What? What is going on? You don't have to study dating. Go out there, ask a girl out. If it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen. Whatever.

[00:38:49]

You don't have to clear your own schedule for a year.

[00:38:52]

Yeah, you have to get a master's degree in dating. Go to a bar. I mean, come on, it's not that hard. Have your aunt Tilda set you up or whatever. Always works.

[00:39:04]

Ended up becoming the number one dating coach in Europe.

[00:39:06]

Oh, here we go. I knew it was too good to be true. The number one dating coach in Europe, certified by the international association of pick up artists, the ayapaw.

[00:39:18]

And a year later, was the number one dating coach in the world.

[00:39:21]

By whom?

[00:39:22]

My God.

[00:39:22]

What is really?

[00:39:23]

Those are gold records.

[00:39:25]

Those are gold records.

[00:39:26]

He's pulling out framed gold records that have his adam lyons number one dating coach. What is that?

[00:39:39]

Membership into the team something club. Over 1 million clicks. This is a. This is. Click funnels. Click funnels. I don't want to. I'll go down this rabbit hole someday. Actually, this reminds me, years ago, I put this on my list of things to talk about. Clickfunnels is some Internet marketing get rich quick scheme that some people do correctly and really make a lot of money. And most people just teach because they never could do it correctly and figure out how to make money. It's like a total, in some cases, scam.

[00:40:11]

Yeah.

[00:40:11]

And so, and I do believe there's some validity to it, but this click funnels thing is like, whatever. Anyway, it's a bunch of people patting themselves on the back for getting clicks, right? How does that make you the number one dating coach in the world that you had 1 million clicks? Because I've clicked on you at least 10,000 times, and it's not because I wanted to date you or go to your courses. I mean, that's like, that's a stretch. Holding gold records in front of a screen and saying you're the number one dating coach in the world is a little disingenuous.

[00:40:40]

In Europe?

[00:40:40]

In Europe. First in Europe, then in Europe.

[00:40:42]

Then he took the world on.

[00:40:43]

That's right. By the way, that says 2016. 2017. Okay. Cool at that.

[00:40:52]

For three years in a row, and the only reason I didn't get the fourth year onwards is because I stopped entering the competition. I mean, after you win three times, it's like, what's the point?

[00:41:00]

Right after you enter the competition? I couldn't afford the entry fee. Oh, my God, Adam, you are so full of yourself, dude. Wow. I wish we could talk like that. We wouldn't have ten minutes of bloopers if we had half the confidence that he did. You know what I'm saying? Sorry.

[00:41:22]

I'm the guy that dating coaches will call when they have problems in their dating life and they need.

[00:41:27]

Oh, you're top, top.

[00:41:28]

Oh, you're the top, top level.

[00:41:31]

He's the one that dating coaches call when they're having trouble with their dating.

[00:41:35]

Hey, girl, it's me. And, uh, I've been preaching on a full dick for a long time. You've called the right person. I'm the number one dating coach in the world according to my clicks. Not my dicks, my clicks. That's awesome. So what I gotta do? Got, like, a drop a bag of cash on someone's mom's door or something like that. What's the. How do you get these pussy back? All you gotta do is follow my 312 step program. Turn the lights down low, make sure the mood music is going before you leave the house. Bust them to your house after twelve to 15 drinks, and keep your fingers crossed that they're able to say yes at the end of the night. I'm Adam Lyons. Peace out. That's really shitty advice. I like being a preacher much better because it just kind of came to me. I think you've had to ask. You know what I'm saying? All right, peace out. I got some errands to run or something.

[00:42:31]

We haven't heard from Carl in a while.

[00:42:33]

Oh, Carl's been asleep for a minute. Oh, Carl's. I think he's got a new church or something.

[00:42:37]

Oh, yeah, I can hear that.

[00:42:38]

I'll check up on him in a minute.

[00:42:39]

Yep.

[00:42:40]

And as the years went by, people asked me how comes I got so good so fast compared to everybody else?

[00:42:47]

And I realized I took a stance that I always take with my masturbation. And that is the quicker the better. Jab, jab, jab. Run, run. Jim, Jim, Jim.

[00:42:57]

I had a massive advantage, an advantage that I do want to share with you, you see most.

[00:43:04]

So please go to this link right here. Clickfunnels.com adamlions I mean, believe they have.

[00:43:10]

To choose between a wealthy guy, a guy who's handy, who can fix things, an artist, and a guy that can protect her. But if she can meet a guy that can do all of that, then she considers you the full package, which to a woman, is incredibly rare. And I learned rapidly that the hobbies and the activities that I'd stopped doing were actually a secret weapon. That when I combined it with my knowledge of dating, catapulted me ahead of almost everybody else.

[00:43:43]

Into the stratosphere.

[00:43:46]

Adam, man, he's a tekken la la. Number one picket bodies in the world. Catapulted you into what? Internet infamy. Does that mean you're the number one dating coach in the world? Because you talk about it on the Internet? No, it doesn't mean you're the number one dater in the world. You just happen to be good at talking, dude. And so now I imagine what he does is he decides that all those things he canceled really could be an advantage to him. So he breaks out the old pictures and posts him on his Internet through his social media company.

[00:44:20]

He says he's saying something, that he's a protector.

[00:44:23]

He says he's a protector. So let's get back to it right after this break.

[00:44:26]

We'll be back. He says he has. Oh, he is a protector.

[00:44:29]

Because I am a protector. More to follow. We'll be back.

[00:44:36]

[00:45:14]

Bye. Ooh, it's summer. We're. I'm a protector and an artist. How do you become the biggest dating coach in the world? Throw in some clicks and a couple of boosted Instagram ads and wah bah. Clickfunnels award. I don't know clickfunnels anything to do with pickup artistry, but okay, we're back with Adam here. He's sharing more.

[00:45:55]

He's a protector.

[00:45:56]

He's sharing more about how he found his weaknesses were actually his strengths.

[00:46:00]

Wait. And just to give somebody a visual here, he's showing like a stock video thing. Yeah, some guy, scary looking, like the.

[00:46:10]

Oklahoma bombers, sitting in a room with.

[00:46:14]

A window with a weird chin.

[00:46:17]

Yeah, he looks like Abe Lincoln or something. I don't know what's going on there. It's like a shadow. You can't see it because it's backlit. So you can't see the guy's face, but he's like sitting on the edge of a bed with his head down in a dark room with, like, moonlight coming in or something. What a weird image. Yeah, for sure.

[00:46:36]

I am a protector because I know martial arts and I can fight.

[00:46:40]

I am. It's like Gollum. That guy looks like Gollum. It's precious.

[00:46:45]

I'm a provider because I understand how wealth works. I am a handyman because I was a janitor for many, many years. I am an artist. And believe it or not, when I turn my cooking skills from just making basic meals into, actually the tips and tricks that make five star cuisine.

[00:47:00]

This guy in this stock video also has the WWF wrestling belt on his window. What is going on? What is going on?

[00:47:11]

I have no idea what this video is. I mean, cart, he's, like, also in a very tiny.

[00:47:17]

Yeah, he's in a bed. This is weird. Like, he's talking about all these great things he's doing, and then there's, like, a guy that's about to literally jump out of the window. He's in a. He's now laying on the bed. And when he laid on the bed, what he revealed is on the windowsill that is. Is backlit. It's like a wrestling belt.

[00:47:33]

It's a huge belt with gold on it.

[00:47:35]

Yeah. So weird.

[00:47:38]

I'm actually a private gourmet chef.

[00:47:40]

Oh, really? I can whip you up some fiddles and diddles in no time. What do you want? Pigs in a poke. I got it for you.

[00:47:49]

Gourmet chef?

[00:47:50]

Yes. What do you want? Pork pudding. I got it. Your favorite pie is on the way.

[00:47:55]

And these are skills that most men don't have nowadays. Now, I've taught over 300,000 men around the world, and I've.

[00:48:04]

The belt.

[00:48:05]

The belt. I know. I can't get over it. Why did he put that stock image in there? It's so stupid.

[00:48:12]

Private group of students, and one of my students, Andy, I was talking to him just yesterday, and I was sharing this with him, and he said to me, dude, the thing that his girlfriend said made her choose him was the moment he replaced the tire on her car. Can you imagine learning tons of dating skills and having your girlfriend be, like, the one thing you did when I knew you were the one was when you could replace the tire of my car?

[00:48:34]

I call bullshit. Duh duh duh duh duh. I call bullshit.

[00:48:40]

It did take a lot more than that.

[00:48:42]

Yeah. Was it, like, a romantic moment where you guys, like, your first kiss on the side of 85 when you're changing your tire? I mean, come on. I think that that could be an attractive quality, that someone knows how to do things right, that maybe is not your strong suit in any person. A man or a woman, whatever. Like Astrid. She knows how to do everything. I know how to do this. I'm not even good at that, but this sounds a little hokey to me.

[00:49:08]

Yeah.

[00:49:09]

And I know that myself because I'm married to a russian woman. And the very first time I met her mom in Russia, they got a flat tire, and it was the middle of night in the middle of nowhere in Russia. And I got out, and I changed the tire, and her mom was just like, oh, my God, this is a great guy.

[00:49:24]

Wait, the first time you met your wife. You were in a car in the middle of Russia, in the middle of nowhere. In the middle of nowhere, broken down on the side of the road. What kind of shenanigans are going on there? Where's the story behind that? That's more interesting than any of this. Tell me how you met your wife in a car in the middle of Russia, broken down on the side of the road, and maybe Adam was thinking some kind of journey. On the side of the road. Oh, I see a woman in need. I'll use my jiu jitsu to change her tire. Wa bam. Wha bam.

[00:49:55]

Here's a five course deal.

[00:49:56]

Yes. I've just got a double sidekick. This tire off, and we'll be on our way in. Nowhere, no time. I'm gonna do some grappling, and then I'll get that tire on.

[00:50:07]

It's something that women really appreciate, but it's a skill that many men have completely lost nowadays.

[00:50:13]

Like, they don't have to call someone.

[00:50:16]

I'm actually really.

[00:50:16]

Yes, you can. That's like, come on, triple a. I mean, really? Most men have called lost that skill because we've all lost the skills. I used to be able to navigate anywhere in the metro Atlanta area without a map.

[00:50:32]

Yes.

[00:50:33]

And I knew the street names.

[00:50:34]

Yes.

[00:50:35]

Now I don't even know the name of my own street. It's written on my refrigerator because my kids need to learn it, but I'm not even sure they really do. That's the only reason I know my street. I say, I swear to God.

[00:50:47]

Right about this. We're talking about this a lot this week, and I'm curious, when it comes to you, are there any of those skills that you don't have that you think maybe you should?

[00:50:55]

I'm going to pause now and let you answer. It's a choose your own adventure. Adam the Lions video have, like, are.

[00:51:02]

You confident in a fight? Like, if a fight was to break.

[00:51:05]

Out, confident in a fight?

[00:51:06]

No. No, I'm not. What is that? I'm not confident in a fight because I don't like to fight people. I'm not interested in that. I do everything to avoid fighting. Everything. I mean, honestly, I run away. That's what I do.

[00:51:22]

You know, how to de escalate a situation so it doesn't turn to a fight, which is what most people with really good martial arts skills know how to do.

[00:51:29]

Oh, okay. Oh, yeah. Just had to make sure you pat yourself on the back there. Yeah, I didn't mean it. Sorry, bro. I can kill you. Five ways with one hand, but. Sorry, bro. Peace offering. Go grab a beer.

[00:51:48]

Do you understand how to make your money work for you? Like, something?

[00:51:52]

Even?

[00:51:52]

When I was a janitor, I knew how to get my money to use that money to generate extra wealth. Is that a skill set that you have?

[00:51:59]

No, so far, I'm two for two.

[00:52:02]

Are you an artist? Do you paint? Do you do photography? Do you have any of those kind of.

[00:52:06]

No. Three for three skills.

[00:52:09]

And are you handy? Are you a handyman?

[00:52:11]

Oh, no, no, no. I. Brian.

[00:52:16]

Don'T try.

[00:52:16]

Nope, not my strong suit. So I'm five for five on this. I wonder why Astrid's still with me. I think she's contractually obligated.

[00:52:24]

Can you fix things if things get broken? Let me know in the comments which one of these skills you don't have and would like to get, because this is something we're talking about.

[00:52:33]

I'll sign you up on my martial arts course. I'm the number one martial artist in.

[00:52:37]

The world, says clickfunnels chef.

[00:52:40]

Yes. Number one chef. Number one handyman. Number one janitor. You need to clean that puke out of a fifth grade classroom. I got you covered. That weird orange dust that they put on there? Yeah.

[00:52:56]

Recently. And actually, we're organizing a big five day event. But we're gonna be giving people those skills, train them to be able to do all those skills.

[00:53:07]

You're gonna train somebody how to change attire at this conference.

[00:53:10]

You're gonna train someone martial arts, how to do martial arts. Be a gourmet cook, be a janitor, a handyman, and a fast talker in five days. And painted and paint. I'm up for it, bro. Cool, cool. One day on each skill, I know.

[00:53:26]

What it's like to have.

[00:53:27]

He's probably gonna have everybody over at his house, and he's gonna be like, all right, fix that window.

[00:53:34]

Woman. Not call you back. And wonder why I didn't always look like this. I didn't always act this confident. You know, there's a period of time where I couldn't even talk on camera, and I developed those skills.

[00:53:47]

Can we go back to those times?

[00:53:49]

Dating. But even when I first started getting good at dating, like I said, I got some skills, but a woman would still have to choose between me or some other guy, and the other guy often won. And why.

[00:54:01]

Why are you setting it up like that? I don't understand. I don't think I've ever.

[00:54:04]

The whole thing makes no sense.

[00:54:06]

I think once or twice in my life, I've been in a situation where a girl that I was attracted to or loosely dating was dating someone else or had someone else on her mind. And of course, I lost. But that's okay. I mean, that's okay. That's what happened. I have none of the five skills, but that's okay. Like, that's just the way the world works. Yeah, it was a little painful when it happened, but it's like, oh, what am I gonna do? I'm gonna, like, throw a brick through the guy's car. You know what I'm saying?

[00:54:28]

I mean, start the fight.

[00:54:30]

Why is it set up like that? Like, it's a competition. It doesn't have to be a competition.

[00:54:34]

It's really frustrating when you look at, like, a piece of paper of two guys written down, and, you know, the woman's gonna choose one of the two. And.

[00:54:44]

Uh, before we break up, can you just do me a favor? I'd like a list of the pros and cons about Steve. So on paper, I could take a look.

[00:54:55]

Cause I'm pretty confident.

[00:54:56]

I'm pretty confident. I got a lot of pros on paper. I'm pretty good on paper. And I wanna know if Steve's really matching up. I think he's a dick. Well, yeah, he wins that one, she.

[00:55:07]

Chooses the other guy.

[00:55:08]

How many orgasms is he giving you? Oh, yeah, he wins that one too.

[00:55:12]

Don't know why. And I'm telling you, nine times out of ten, it's because the other guy is basically capable of doing skills that you just aren't. Whether that she feels safe around him, you know, feeling like he can protect her or that she's learning about money from him or that he can fix things, you know? Or maybe he's autistic and he's artistic.

[00:55:32]

He was saying artiste.

[00:55:35]

The caption said autistic. Jesus Christ, Adam. Check your.

[00:55:39]

I know. Check your captions.

[00:55:42]

Capable of taking beautiful pictures of her. Whatever it is, it's usually those things that make the difference. So it's not good to just capable of taking.

[00:55:49]

Can you take beautiful pictures of me? Okay, listen. I brought you both here today because I just can't decide. I've got this Nikon 3000. What I want you to do is we're gonna go into the woods, and I want you to take beautiful pictures of me. And I'm gonna make a decision at the end. What is this, Project Runway? I mean, what are we doing? What the fuck are you talking about?

[00:56:17]

Oh, game or have whiz as they call it nowadays. You actually have to be someone that has these other skills. And so this is something that's really.

[00:56:27]

I've seen some people who use the word Riz, and I don't know.

[00:56:35]

An example. I want you to imagine two guys. One of them is, like, the son of a rich guy. Maybe he makes, like, 100 grand a year, but it's like daddy's money, you know? And he spends all his days kind of, like, just hanging out in his apartment, not really doing anything.

[00:56:48]

He makes a hundred grand a year, but it's.

[00:56:50]

But he doesn't do anything. Yeah. So he doesn't make it. He's given it, first of all. Second of all, I don't know if this video is from 2007, but $100,000 doesn't do what it used to. You're not living some lavish lifestyle with $100,000.

[00:57:07]

And the other guy, he works at, like, a fast food restaurant. The guy that works at a fast food restaurant, he's got a small business on the side where, you know, he does handyman work, does basically, like, trickle stuff and plumbing stuff, and he's investing.

[00:57:20]

All that money into when he's not flipping burgers. The fuck? Why doesn't he just become an electrician? I think it pays better. I mean, no knock on the fast food guy, like, but if you have all those skills, Adam.

[00:57:38]

Flipping properties, which is something he really wants to get into.

[00:57:41]

Yeah. I've seen so many people working in fast food, flipping properties. Adam, the average cost of a house is $500,000.

[00:57:52]

And doing electrical work on the side.

[00:57:53]

Yes. And flipping properties.

[00:57:57]

And he's only having the job at the moment while he's, you know, building up that business and making it grow. When it comes to these two guys, which do you really think women want? Do they want the lay about that's sitting in his apartment every day? That dad.

[00:58:10]

Yes, yes.

[00:58:13]

He pays for, you know, waiting for his dad to die, so he's hoping he gets the inheritance with his dad being like, if you don't get a real job, you're not gonna get that inheritance.

[00:58:21]

Right?

[00:58:21]

Is it that guy?

[00:58:22]

Wow. You got, like, a really creative brain. You're just, like, going off. You got this deep story about these two characters on paper.

[00:58:30]

Or is it the guy that's actually making something for himself? And he's actually, you know, he's.

[00:58:33]

He's physically strong because he's making something for himself. He's making french fries. I mean, the, like, come on, let's get real, Adam. Daddy's got a bunch of money. The guy does nothing. He's driving a jaguar around. If even he doesn't know how to change a tire, he can pay to have someone change his tire. Or the guy who's got seven jobs who has no time to do anything else. This is why your course is bullshit. Because it's the guy who has seven jobs who really needs your really needs, like, some breathing room and maybe some guidance. But you're now going to tell them some fantasy fairy tale about how the most, the hottest girl in the room is going to pick them. That's not going to happen. This is earth. You know, this is earth where we live with other human beings.

[00:59:22]

Able, because he fixes things and he's, you know, out there working with his hands and he works full time. We typically like to assume that the person who works in fast food isn't attractive. But actually, if that guy has those skills, he's, you know, does MMA at the weekend and he's building up his business.

[00:59:38]

Jesus, he's flipping houses. He's working full time at the burger shop. He's doing electrical and construction on the side. He's mma on the weekend. Where does a girl fit into this schedule? Where does he sleep? When does he sleep?

[00:59:51]

He's a more attractive guy. And it's because it's not about money, it's about. Are you someone that has these five exact characteristics that women want? You know, like, there are women online all the time being like, you know, a guy that can cook, a guy who's good at art, a guy who can defend you, a guy who knows how to make.

[01:00:11]

Where are these women on the Internet? Is that AI responding to comments on your website? Because. I don't know.

[01:00:20]

And a guy who makes me laugh. You know, pick two. You can't have all five, but the reality is you can. I'm definitely someone that has all those skill sets.

[01:00:29]

You are? Of course.

[01:00:31]

Of course. Bad yourself on the back, adam.

[01:00:33]

My students are old people that have.

[01:00:36]

Those skill sets that are old people.

[01:00:38]

I know. You gotta really run through your script here, bud, because your captioning is getting it 100% wrong so far. It said autistic and old people. Then it just said old people instead of all people. Instead of all people.

[01:00:51]

I think the reason that guys come to learn dating from me is because there's tons of information online, right? There's free podcasts about dating. There's YouTube videos, I mean, there's books. You can learn about dating, but if you've learned and you've read those things and you've got the knowledge, but it isn't translating into results. It's probably because there's something missing, something else that you need to get. Because if you do the same thing over.

[01:01:16]

And that's why I'm inviting you to my five day get pussy quick retreat, you're gonna come in as Beavis and leave as MacGyver. You're gonna know how to make a bubblegum into a bomb when I'm done.

[01:01:33]

With you over and over again. And you are not results you want. In my mind, it's time to do something completely different. And that's why I focus on giving men actual skills, like real skills, real life applicable skills that are the kind of skills that women want in a guy. And the best thing about it is the minute you stop gaining theory and you start actually being good at, you know, taking photographs or getting good at.

[01:01:59]

His very first video with social media was all about taking good photographs, too. That you need somebody. You need a friend who can come over and take photographs of you that's good at photographs. Well, we learned absolutely nothing from Adam. I have none of those skills. And I managed to grab a beautiful woman who is amazing. I mean, just amazing.

[01:02:19]

Oh, my God, she is amazing. But I mean, he's just. God, he's taking these poor men down.

[01:02:23]

I know.

[01:02:24]

Rabbit holes.

[01:02:25]

Yeah. The reason why he's talking to the person who has full time, seven full time jobs is because that's who he knows will pay for his course. Right? And that's. That's who he's sucking dry. Because I can guarantee you can go to five days of whatever, it ain't gonna make you more attractive. Have to be yourself. Somebody will find you attractive. Be yourself and run in, like, circles. And what I mean by that is, if you like painting dungeons and dragons figurines, go to dungeons and dragons conferences, hang out in online spaces, and be real. Somebody somewhere will find you attractive. That's it. That's what you do. Don't listen to this. Listen to Brian. Just fix all your problems in 2 seconds, okay? I'm actually the number one pickup artist in the world.

[01:03:08]

I mean, how is he? There's no way he's gonna be able to teach these skills at this five course.

[01:03:14]

Chrissy, please. I mean, he's just trying to get $1,000 out of you or whatever. More information to follow. I'll figure out how much it cost. I will. I promise. Okay, listen, we're gonna be touring.
