podcasting has definitely uh softened the barrier between consumer and and creator in a way that's never been done before which in a lot of ways is cool like for me it's been great i'm not even a podcaster but social media has allowed me to be closer to my fan base and have like you know a more organic feedback loop to where like when i ask people yo what should i cover next thing you know i got 500 suggestions that was impossible even 15 years ago yeah so i'm not gonna dog on it too much but i do think that like trump being on these podcasts was a way of communicating like yo trump is your friend like this could be you here with us

Oh yeah, Captain Kittens, welcome back to another episode of The Commercial Break. I'm Brian Green, this is my dear friend and the co-host of the show, Kristen Joy Hoadley. Best to you, Kristen. Best to you, Brian. Best to you out there in the podcast universe. I'll start it off saying it right now, ahead of time, as all the kids like to say, trigger warning. on this episode.

90.37 - 116.562 Bryan Green

TCB Infomercial with Andrew Callahan from Channel 5 News. All gas, no brakes. Quarter confessions. He is a journalist of our time. He is a new media journalist doing a blog and YouTube. Doing it really well. I think he's one of the I'll say this. I think he's one of the more important documentarians of our time because he kind of, he just gets into the heart of it.

116.582 - 141.626 Bryan Green

He has a good way of summing things up. And if you haven't seen Channel 5 or All Gas, No Brakes, I highly recommend that you go check out the channel. This will be a show. where we definitely talk about politics because Andrew's new movie, Dear Kelly, is out right now. He had previously a movie with HBO Films called This Place Rules about the lead-up to the January 6th thing that happened.

144.45 - 144.49 Andrew Callaghan

Ha!

146.212 - 169.979 Bryan Green

But anyway, he had an excellent HBO documentary, and now he has self-produced, self-directed, or Channel 5 has directed a movie called Dear Kelly, where he takes it even a step further, trying to get into the head. of people who have kind of become extreme, who have become super tribalist. And that is not uncommon in our culture today. And I watched Dear Kelly. I got a screener of it.
