Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
I don't think it's funny, Capri. I didn't raise you to wear Birkenstocks. On this episode of The Commercial Break...
You know, this relationship is basically headed for disaster. And I don't love it because I love seeing people. Yeah, I do. I love the drama. I love the drama.
That's what you watch it for.
Chapter 2: What are the latest updates on the Kelsey brothers and leg washing?
Of course. There's no issue.
Why else would I watch it? I'm not watching it so I can see everything turn out great. I'm watching it so I can see the train wrecks. Yes. Which is the only two storylines I'm following are the train wrecks because I like that, right?
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 the leg washer of the group, Kristen Joy Hoadley. Best to you, Chrissy.
Best to you, Brian.
Best to you out there in the podcast universe. Why is it that you and I can talk about something and we never get any coverage from TMZ? Well, I don't think we're on their radar. But Swellsy, or whatever his name is, the Kelsey brothers talk about it, and it becomes big news all around the country. Were they talking about leg washing? They were talking about leg washing.
And Travis explained that he does not, in fact, wash his legs every time. He posted something on Squitter, Twitter, X, Twitter. I don't even know what they call it anymore. Whatever it's called. He twatted, all of you have been fed diabolical lies that washing every crevice of your body and hair all the time is somehow better and healthier. Any dermatologist not in bed with big soap will agree.
Big soap? I didn't know that was a thing. I'm hoping this is satire. Yeah. Hotspots are all that is necessary and actually leads to cleaner, healthier skin. Byline TMZ, Travis Kelsey, I don't wash my feet either. Dirty feet are apparently commonplace in the household of the Kelseys.
Because just days after Jason Kelsey admitted he doesn't wash his feet, Travis Kelsey revealed he too does not wash his piggies. The Kelsey brothers dove into the topic on Wednesday's episode of New Heights after Jason caused an internet uproar earlier this week when he posted on X that he does not routinely scrub his tootsies. TMZ.

Chapter 3: What unusual animal encounters are discussed in this episode?
I know. Piggies and Tootsies.
Yeah, this is journalism at its best. It was a slow news day for them. Jason reiterated on the pod that he thinks it's a complete waste of time telling Travis who the fuck washes your legs or what kind of psychopath washes their feet. He then insisted Travis doesn't wash his either and the chief star didn't exactly disagree. Okay.
I don't think you're a psychopath if you don't wash your feet.
No, of course, if you do wash your feet. It's your personal preference. But I think we agree. I get the feet. What are leg doctors? What's a doctor of the legs? Is there a leg doctor? I guess an orthopedic would be as close. orthopedics and dermatologists agree. Well, I mean, I guess an orthopedic doesn't care if you wash your legs or not.
They care if your bones are broken.
But okay, big dermatology agrees that the soap running down your body can probably suffice for a good leg wash. You don't have to wash your legs every single time you're in. And I admitted on this show years ago, two years ago now, that I, in fact, am not an everyday leg washer. Right, we agreed on that. We agreed on this.

Chapter 4: How do Joro spiders relate to the concept of a 'Spiderpocalypse'?
It was something. And I think the feet go hand in hand with that. Now, I take care of my feet. I do wash my feet every night because I'm using the pumice to pumify my feet. Yes. Because if my feet are not pumified, especially in the summer, it's like an alien foot. It just gets weird. Right.
And with these pretty feet I have, according to the lady of Publix, I got to make sure that my feet stay on fleek. I want to have riz and matos. Riz and matos. You got to. Yes, you have to.
It puts a little pep in your step.
Especially when you have sandals. I want you to look at my sandal sunburn right there. I have sandal marks burned into my foot.
Oh, I was looking at your foot, though. It does look very smooth.
It does. Look at that. Good job. Yeah. Well, that's the pumicing. You just do the pumicing. I know all about the pumice. I went and bought a new pumice. So for like, I don't know. I've had this same pumice for like pumice, whatever the fuck you call it. I've had it for this old one that I had. I've had it for like six to eight months. I think a pumice should last as long as a pumice lasts, right?
Yeah. I mean, you should maybe clean them regularly, but.
Well, I figured putting soap on it would clean it, but I guess that's not right because when I would go to pumice my feet, I started sensing this increasing smell of musty, moldy stuff. And I was like, is that my foot? Does my foot smell like that? Yes. But no, it wasn't my foot. It doesn't smell like that. You know what it is? It's the skin. It's the skin.
When you use that pumice over and over again, you got dead skin all over it. So I threw away the old. So I said, Astrid, does this thing smell? And Astrid threw it right away. This stinks. Smell it. Pull my finger. So Astrid smelled it and she immediately threw it away. And I was like, that's my pumice. I need it for my feet. And so I went to the store.

Chapter 5: What is the significance of Mental Health Awareness Month mentioned?
And so I got a new pumice. I feel very excited about this. Fresh pumice. Fresh pumice for my nasty ass feet. And so that's why my feet are so smooth. It's because I pumice every night. So I do wash my feet. Leg washing, not necessarily. That's not a thing. I don't do it every time I'm in the shower. Jason and Travis say it, and it's front page news on TMZ.
You and I say it, and Joe Dombrowski wonders who we're connected to to get guests in our show.
I don't think we're on TMZ's radar, which I'm fine with.
No, no, no, I don't want to be on TMZ's radar. I'm good with that. You know, the second you say that is the second that TMZ starts covering us. I hope not. Actually, we could probably use the press. TMZ. We said it first. No, I'm sure it's a common... I'm sure it's a common topic that all podcasts talk about, right, Chrissy? Yeah, gotta be. Speaking of Joe Dombrowski, Joe was a great guest.
We got a lot of feedback on the Joe Dombrowski interview. Lots and lots of people loved it. I really loved him. Especially his calling us out on the possum.
And then...
I sent you the picture. And then a possum showed up at Chrissy's house. I know. It's unbelievable. It was a baby.
It was a baby. We were sitting outside enjoying a beverage in the evening. And all of a sudden, out of the corner of my eye, I see a little baby possum. You know what? Running over. And then it just stood there and it was scared.
It's hard to dislike a baby anything. I know. Do you know what I'm saying?

Chapter 6: How does Bryan connect 90 Day Fiance to personal experiences?
They can't see or they're blind or something. But the opossum drama continues here at the commercial break because we got someone that wrote in that said, you're saying it wrong. It's opossum. It's opossum, not possum.
Okay.
But opossum. And so Astrid said, you're saying it wrong because we even say it opossum. Like in the English translation of opossum is – or opossum is opossum, not possum. And so I said, no, that can't be true. I've been writing it possum my entire life. Yeah. It's been possum my – so when did it turn into opossum? Like opossum. No, you don't sound like I'm calling it. I'm saying it's opossum.
So, in fact, Astrid was correct and I was correct. It can be said either way. Opossum or possum.
Either way.
Either way.
I'm sticking with possum.
Still don't like possums. Opossums or possums, still don't like them. So my mind has not been changed.
I like the baby. I felt bad for the baby.

Chapter 7: What are the business blunders highlighted in the episode?
Do you find roaches to be friendly? Are you a roach lover? No one is a roach lover. No. No one. You want to know why? Because they're weird, disgusting animals. They crawl around your walls. Yeah, really fast. They skeeve you out. They're like in the middle of the night. They're crawling against walls. It's the same thing that possums do. The same thing. They're in your trash.
They're walking around walls. They crawl out at night. They're under your porch. You never know where they are until they show up at Chrissy's house to have a drink with her and Jeff. Okay? Just... Let's all agree. Possums are... I'm not saying kill them. No. I'm just saying... you know, I don't know what I'm saying. What I'm saying is I don't like them. That's what I'm saying. And that's okay.
And that's okay. And neither does Joe, for the record. I think Joe's on our side about this one. Yeah, he seemed to be. Or at the very least, he's on the side of shitty internet commenters leaving dumb reviews. But I think this person actually wrote a long email to us once. And Astrid was trying to find it. I don't know if we've been successful in that.
We haven't because I would have it if we had. But she swears up and down. And I remember her telling me this, that someone had written in and given this long soliloquy on possums and why we should take a second look at our opinion on possums. Now, I put a call out to the audience earlier this week asking them to – if you can find that clip of us, I'd buy you coffee for a week. That still stands.
I haven't had anybody –
No one's taking you up on it?
No, because no one's listening.
So I'm just talking to myself.
We're just talking to each other. Yeah. But if you do know, if you remember, if you can find the clip of me talking about opossums or possums in my stance on them originally on the show, I'm not talking about when Joe told us about this review, then I'll buy you coffee for a week. Whatever your favorite coffee shop is, I'll send you a gift card to it. But I'm just...

Chapter 8: What insights are shared about mental health and vulnerability in men?
That's what they do. Look, Miranda's messing with an opossum right now. One of my daughters is just losing it right now. She's got an earache. Poor thing's miserable. I just don't, I'm just not, I don't see my mind getting changed on opossums or possums anytime soon, no matter how you say it. I just don't know what purpose they serve in my trash can. Do you know what I'm saying?
I'm not going to kill them. I want to be clear. If I haven't yet put blue down, I'm not going to go out of my way for opossums. They bother me a lot less than blue does. They do. But I'm telling you right now, they're ugly little alien creatures and I'm not a fan. If you want to be a fan, be a fan.
But what drives me crazy about this one review, what really drives me crazy, is seriously, are you going to choose possums over the commercial break? That's where we're at. Are we that bad? Are we that terrible? I mean, I realize we are not like the cream of the crop comedy podcast. I realize we are not like best in class comedy podcast. But possums? We can't be better than possums?
We hit a nerve. Oh, Chrissy, we are so fucked. I don't even know. Why are we bothering? Why do we bother? I put so much effort into this thing. And then I say one thing about possums that everybody's running. Imagine I was talking about politics.
Oh, we're not going there.
No, thank you. All right. Let's take a break. I'm going to diagnose my daughter and find out what's going on. Sounds good. And then we'll be back.
What? Oh, hi. It's Christina again. Here to remind you to go to TCBpodcast.com. for all things audio, video, and TCBDO. Give us a follow on Instagram at The Commercial Break and on TikTok at TCB Podcast. And guess what? We have a new phone number. I know what you're thinking, but I promise this is the last TCB phone number you will ever have to remember.
So call us and leave us a voicemail or text us at 212-433-3TCB. Once more for the people in the back, that's 212-433-3TCB. Oh, and check out our YouTube channel at youtube.com slash thecommercialbreak. That's all for now. Let's listen to our sponsors and get back to the show.
All right, I do... That took care of nothing. I do want to say to the commercial break audience right now, guys and girls and possums, possum lovers everywhere, we do not want to ruin a good thing. And by leaving comments on Frankie B's YouTube channel, that is clearly coming right out of my mouth onto the YouTube comment section. It's not going to help us stay under the radar.
