Chapter 1: What strange foods do the hosts discuss?
I feel pretty, you know, awful inside, but I'm enjoying myself because I have got some new friends and it's just pretty strict, but I think I'll be alright.
On this episode of the Commercial Break... Well, it all does go back to P. Diddy.
It all comes back to P. Diddy. It all comes back to Baby Oil. This is a conspiracy by Big Oil, Baby Oil, Big Corporate Baby Oil.
Big Corporate Baby Oil wants us to believe that P. Diddy was the reason Baby Oil was sold out during the pandemic. But no, no, don't you believe it for a second. Big Baby Oil knows different. The next episode of The Commercial Break starts now.
Oh yeah, 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, Kristen Joy Hoadley. Best to you, Chrissy.
Best to you, Brian.
You're the shrimp paste on my mango.

Chapter 2: What was the experience with the live baby octopus?
What else can I say? There you go. Chrissy and I doing hard research here at the commercial break. We learned a new delicacy. Yes, we learned a new delicacy. Shrimp paste and mango. Mango, mango, mango. Which sounds like... It tastes like puke in my mouth. That's what it sounds like. But, hey, who am I to judge? There are different cultures and different foods for everybody. What's this?
I think we've asked this before, but what is the strangest food you think you've ever put in your mouth?
Yeah, I don't know. I can't remember. I mean, I've eaten, like, probably it would be maybe related to the sushi world.
Yeah. For me, it's got to be live baby octopus or beef heart.
One of the two. And I haven't had either one of those. Ugh.
Ugh.
Just the whole, like, yeah. I went to a beautiful restaurant on Berkeley, near Berkeley in San Francisco.

Chapter 3: What is Bryan's Accutane journey and its impact?
We were just kind of traveling around the campus area over there in that retail district, going in and out of record stores. I mean, they do have some really fantastic places, little out-of-the-way places there. And we... Went down some alleyway, down some stairs. And don't ask me how we got there. But then there was like a door that we opened.
And then there was we were all of a sudden in this dark, damp basement. And there was like a paper door that we like slid open. One of those like real Japanese doors. And there was a restaurant no bigger than this room. And I'm not even kidding. There was like 12, 13, maybe 15 seats in there.
A little hidden secret.
I know. Two top tables, like four of them, and then like bar chairs around. And they had a window, but it went nowhere. It's just like a window to a brick wall. And it looked authentically Japanese because it was authentically Japanese. So Japanese that no one there spoke English. At least not to us, they didn't.
Chapter 4: How do bad tanning habits affect skin health?
And the menu is in Japanese. And I'm not even sure that they had a... I'm not even sure the health department had ever visited. But, I mean, it looked clean enough. It looked wonderful. And so at the time, you know, I was up for a challenge. I said, all right, let's eat here. The lady that I was with, the young lady that I was with, loved sushi. That was her thing.
And so I was like, okay, let's do an authentic experience. So we get this menu. It's all in Japanese. I have no fucking clue. And there's some pictures, but it doesn't none of it looks like stuff I would eat. Right. And so I asked the waiter in English because I know no Japanese. Give us what the chef would give us. Give us the chef's tasting.
And eventually, after like some hand gestures and drawing pictures with a pencil, I think he figured out.
Food in mouth.
Chapter 5: What conspiracy theories are mentioned regarding P. Diddy?
Yeah, food in mouth. Chef, you know, chop, chop, chop, chop. Yeah. Dumb American need worse food you have. For most price. So he got it. He was like, ah, sucker born every day. Here they come. And the first course comes out. Fine. Whatever. It's some kind of, I think, calamari, squid, something. Not cooked, but okay. All right. You know, you put some, there's a little sauce with it. Ate it.
A little spicy, a little sweet. I liked it. Very good. Next one comes out.
Chapter 6: How does the episode explore the concept of the inner child?
It is a plate.
with ice on it and then there are like i don't know how to describe it you know how sometimes if you eat escargot you'll get it in those like that like a plate with little bowls in them like little tiny little bowls but i have not eaten escargot oh that's another pleasantry that i could skip all together escargot not my favorite so in there were and it was like the ice was like there was some dry ice it was like you know that kind of smoke coming out from it and
And he put it down, and in there was what looked like a baby octopus, right? A little tiny octopi. And I was like, oh, okay, all right. I like a little octopi. I don't mind that. That's good. Right? It didn't look cooked, but okay, whatever. Surely they're not going to give me anything that's going to kill me. Surely.
And then as I went to go grab the chopsticks, as I picked one up, I realized that the tentacles were wiggling.
They were swimming. It was swimming. Was it swimming? Was it in water? No, no, no, no. Oh, okay. It was just on the ice.

Chapter 7: What are the dangers of bad tanning habits and skin cancer?
On the dry ice? Yes. They were so chilled that they were like sleeping, right? They were like in that state of, oh, shit, my body just shut down because, of course, it's a cold-blooded animal. So it just kind of just went to sleep, I guess. I don't know, Chrissy. Because all I know is now I'm in it. Now I'm there. Now the girl I'm with is challenging. Like now it's a challenge.
And she was a challenge altogether, right?
Right. Yeah, she was. And you love a good challenge.
I do love a good challenge.
Chapter 8: What humorous anecdotes are shared about skin issues?
I wasn't going to back down from this. Listen, I'm not the most manly man in the world. But when someone puts me to a test, I don't know. I very rarely turn down something really idiotic. Like I'm just going to go ahead and do it. Yeah. And as I'm putting it in my mouth, it is coming back to life.
It is like, ah. Oh, God.
And I was like, oh shit, this is live baby octopus. And I put it in my mouth and it squiggled around and I could feel it and I swallowed it. I just, I didn't take any bites. I swallowed it and I could feel it squiggling in the back of my throat. Absolutely terrible. There was nothing like, I don't remember a taste to it, but I remember all of the texture. She did not, bitch.
I was like, oh my God, come on.
You got to be kidding me. So there were, I think, five of them in this little thing. And we just left four of them sitting there. And eventually they really started to squiggle around. And I was like, and then so the waiter came back and I was like, those are alive. Like, those are not cooked alive. And he was just like, you know, he's like bowed to me like I had done something great.
And, you know, hey, listen. But then as the night wore out, as the night went on, I noticed that we weren't the only one who got this dish. And there were other people who were eating it also. And I thought, wow, that's brave. That is the freshest kind of sushi you can get is the kind that's still alive. And it was not pleasant.
For sure, yeah.
Not pleasant at all. And I don't remember the rest of the meal being particularly pleasant either. What I do remember is like the $280 bill I got in the end. I mean, it was expensive.
Of course.
