On this episode of The Commercial Break...
hi podcast universe it's christina if you've never heard my voice before i am the producer of the commercial break and sometimes when brian and chrissy are slacking off they ask me to jump in and guide you through the tumultuous days without them so let's get to it we need to talk about possums if you're new to tcp you're probably thinking what the hell why do we need to talk about possums is this a podcast about possums what is this bitch on But here's the thing. Possums have somehow become a deep part of our lore. So I thought I'd catch you up to speed on just exactly how we got here. So here's Brian and Chrissy talking about possums.
The next episode of the commercial break starts now.
Kittens, welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green.
What prompted Christina to discuss possums?
This is the opossum to my opossum, Kristen Joy Oatley. Best to you, Chrissy. Best to you, Brian. Best to you out there in the podcast universe. Yes, yes, yes, they're aliens. And we know there's a long, deep divide amongst the commercial break listeners right now about opossum or opossum. Or just possum. Yeah, or just possum. Or whether or not we even have possums on this earth. I want to settle everybody down. I'm not looking to divide the country any more than it's already divided. We've got enough troubles to worry about. We're not going to go ape shit over possums. But I do want to thank one of our listeners, Caitlin. She's a great listener, been listening for a long time, communicates with us frequently.
She found the episode where we are talking about possums. And I've got that tape to roll.
And it wasn't too long ago either.
No, it was less than a month ago. It was a month and a couple days ago.
We talk so much on this show that we don't remember.
I don't remember that just a month ago we had this whole conversation about possums. I thought for sure it was years ago. I was like, oh, she must have gone deep in the catalog and found me saying something about possums that she wasn't happy about.
But no. Just like 10 episodes ago.
What is the significance of possums in the podcast's lore?
Nay!
Yeah, it was like seven days ago. I mean, it's crazy that we couldn't remember that.
It's so insane.
I'm happy. We are old, Chrissy. We are old.
Again, I think we just talk so much that we can't remember.
It just flows. What are you going to do? We're at that point in life where there's only so much information we can stuff in our brains. We're at the point in our life where four days a week is even too much for us, and we're the ones creating it. I'm sure a lot of listeners would agree. Shut Brian up is basically the sentiment on the Apple reviews right now. Okay, okay. Not everyone's going to be happy.
It's not for everyone.
But those of you that don't know, Joe Dombrowski was our guest last week. Go take a listen to that episode. Joe was great. But Joe, at the end, he apparently did his homework on the commercial break. He did. Because at the end, he said, before I let you guys go, I have one more thing for you. I was reading your reviews and I found one and I'd like to let you know.
All right, just real quick, I'm going to play that segment from Joe Dombrowski's episode.
You guys, I found this comment on, this was a review that somebody left for y'all, and this is exactly what I'm talking about. Oh, good. This is exactly what I'm talking about. It's a one star. I used to love your podcast until you talked bad about possums. They deserve to be on the earth more than humans. They have existed for more than 70 million years. Do your research before talking negative about the human species. took the fucking time someone took the time to write that we laugh about it all the time we're like you took the time to write that okay possum lover 44 just go go back down your possum rabbit hole on youtube and don't watch this podcast anymore thanks for watching
Yeah, like, it's not for you. It's not for you.
Keep walking. And also, fuck you, too. I'm calling the APPCA and Sarah McLachlan.
