Send us some of your art. Send us some of your art. Let me determine whether or not you should get another dead-end job or try and make a living doing this. I'll give you my answer. I'm the Simon Cowell of painting. I don't know if you know that, but I am.

The next episode of The Commercial Break starts now.
Brian Green 0:45
Welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green.

How has Starbucks changed its business strategy?

Brian Green 0:48
This is the agenda. My Ben, Chris and Joy. Only best to you, Chris. And best to you, Brian. And best to you out there in the podcast universe. Thanks for joining us. Wow. What an exciting week last week of 3.30 in the morning speeches by Democrats. I know.
Unknown 1:06
I stayed up way too late.

What nostalgic stories are shared about Jolt Cola?

Brian Green 1:07
Yeah, so did I. One night I just had to putt out. I'm like, I can't do it anymore.
I know.
Brian Green 1:12
I got to give one thing to the RNC. You know, they got the older crowd. At least they get it done. They wrap it up by like 8.15.
Unknown 1:18
Yeah.
Brian Green 1:20
But I guess when you, you know, I don't know, because it's in Chicago, you know, it's an hour earlier there than it is here. And they're trying to get the West Coast and I get it. But wow, what a show, what a show the DNC put on.
Unknown 1:33
I mean, it was the best music, music I've seen in a while.
Brian Green 1:36
Yeah, I got to say, you know, we don't get political here, but I do have to say that someone posted like a comparison music at the RNC versus music at the DNC.
Unknown 1:46
Yeah.
Brian Green 1:46
No question. No question. The DNC had him beat. No question. I mean, what a ruckus event.
Unknown 1:53
Everyone was going crazy.

What advice is given for picking up women?

Unknown 1:54
It was a party.
Brian Green 1:55
Yeah, it made the RNC seem kind of sleepy. Like, you know, Trump had just had the terrible assassination attempt. And then, you know, you go into the RNC, there's a lot of energy for Trump and from his supporters. And I thought, in my opinion, I thought like the RNC should have put on something like the DNC did. And they would have really like, you know, gotten everybody all jacked up. But then they had some, like, cover band playing, you know. And Kid Rock. No control. Take me home. Oh, and Kid Rock. Yes. The American music legend, Kid Rock. I honestly can't stand that guy. I never have been able to stand him. But whatever. That's my own opinion. That's not... Whatever. Anyway, hey, Chrissy, you've been asking for it.

How can one navigate difficult family dynamics in relationships?

Brian Green 2:37
Now you're going to get it. Ask TCB, where the questions are probably a year and some change.
Unknown 2:44
I know.
Brian Green 2:46
I've been asking you for it. I know. I know. We've been putting this off for a long time, and I know that there's some people who, you know, they dutifully write in and they ask their questions, but there's a few things that I need to go through first. First, I need to make sure that it is, like... When someone writes in, sometimes they don't always write it in a way where it makes sense for air, and I do not want to put words in people's mouths. So first and foremost, I have to respond to them and then say, hey, can we doll this up a little bit so that it sounds good on air, right? I don't want to take your words. And then second of all, do I indeed have permission to use your name or any kind of facts that they might put in there?
Brian Green 3:22
So it takes a little bit to kind of get that going. But even then, that could only take like a couple of weeks. We're like a year behind, so I apologize. I hope you're still listening out there. Probably not. Probably not. Probably not. But I thought we'd do an Ask TCB today.

What humorous observations are made about Nextdoor posts?

Brian Green 3:37
I thought we'd do some next doors. I've been making screenshots of next doors that I see here and there, and I found that it was super important to tell you what's going on here just north of Atlanta, where everyone seems like they don't know how to use a computer or social media.
Yeah.
Brian Green 3:54
Or a ladder. Or a ladder. That's true. Or a ladder. It is absolutely insane. But I will share a little story before we get to all that. I will share a little story. I decided today that I was going to take a walk up to my local coffee shop, which happens to be Starbucks. And I go to Starbucks.
