What humorous observations does Russell Howard share about American culture?
In America I saw a bumper sticker that said Jesus is my airbag What a way of finding out he's not real
On this episode of The Commercial Break. It says a lot about male ego, that I was kind of delighted. As in, I just can't imagine a world in which people are going, is there a girl you fancy but you feel fucking awful for admitting it? Do you know what I mean? That's the thing. But that would make the press. Like if people were saying that they... So, yeah, I was kind of I was essentially the nation's pity fuck. That's kind of what I was.
How does Russell Howard describe his experience during the LA fires?
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 Winehouse to My Leap of Kristen Joy. Totally best to you, Kristen. Best to you, Brian. Best to you out there in the podcast universe.
Thanks for joining us today on a DCB Infomercial Tuesday with Mr. Russell Howard, UK sensation.
He is. He's the Robbie Williams.
What insights does Russell provide about his comedy style and audience reactions?
He's the Robbie Williams of comedy over there in the UK. And we're so excited to have him. Feeling very grateful that he's decided to stop by the commercial break because he's British and he doesn't know. He doesn't know that the commercial break is not a place you go.
If you're trying to get the word out.
That's right. If you're trying to get the word out. But honestly, we've been grateful to have so many wonderful guests as of late. Roy Wood Jr., Felipe Esparza, so many that we can talk about. But go check out those episodes because they are doing very well, Chrissy, on the podcast.
How does Russell Howard differentiate between British and American comedy?
Yeah, on the interwebs.
On the interwebs. There you go. And who knows? Maybe we'll make a little news today with our good friend Russell Howard, currently on tour. He's going to be coming to the West Coast of the United States here very shortly. We'll put all the links in the show notes, as we always do. And his special is now out.
It's really funny, too.
It is really funny.
What is the significance of 'Naked Attraction' in British television?
Jeff was laughing, too.
Oh, we've got Jeff laughing. Yes, Jeff was laughing. Then we know that we've hit on something special, because Jeff doesn't laugh. He's a humorless son of a bitch. Jeff is a humorless son of a bitch.
You hear me, Jeff?
Loosen up, dude. Actually, Jeff's kind of like one of the loosest people I know. He's very loose.
How does Russell reflect on his recognition as the UK's weirdest crush?
When he gets his bell rung, there's no, don't tighten up, Mr. Green. No, he's loose. Ding dong. They go in there. They ring the door. They stick their hand in and they wave. They drop a package off and then they... Amazon comes in Jeff's door. That's all I got to say. That's how loosey-goosey he is. Anyway, Russell's going to be here.
What challenges does Russell face when performing in the U.S.?
And yeah, I'm very excited. Me too. Speaking of UK news, it seems that... That Meghan and Harry have done the right thing and they have postponed the much ballyhooed premiere of her, I don't know, cooking with Kate thing that's going on. Meghan. Meghan. I'm sorry. Cooking with Meghan.
Cooking with Kate. That's the other sister.
What are Russell Howard's thoughts on the evolution of comedy in the UK?
That's the other sister. Yeah. Cooking with Meghan.
Was it a cooking show or I guess like a lifestyle show?
It was a lifestyle show, but I think you did it supposedly. Lifestyle. Lifestyle.
Yeah. If you want to get right with your lifestyle, check out Frankie V's new video. I wonder if she watched some of his episodes to get ready for it.
Oh, listen. I'm sure that Meghan Markle is tuned right into Frank Bernardo. Bernardo. Bernardo. Even he says his name wrong. Bernardo. Bernardo. In the greater Chicagoland area. People, by the way, love Frankie B. I mean, every time we do an episode, we just get so much feedback about our Frankie B episodes. And I wish that there was more to do, but I think we've done run out.
He's got a girlfriend.
He's got a girlfriend and she's not letting him anywhere near the YouTubes. But don't fear not. If you've heard any of Frankie's relationship advice, he'll soon be back to YouTube. At 72 years old. We didn't find his social media, so that's good. But actually, I applaud Megan on this one because apparently she called it a love letter to Southern California and all things wonderful. Listen, I personally...
