of bed at three fifty two every morning it's dark.

my clothes out the night before, but not today.

I've never seen you wear sweat shorts.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Yeah, I'm just wearing gym shorts and it's much easier
to tie than button, you know, so I just I

flip flops, yeah, and a nineteen ninety five silver chair
Zer one hundred shirt.

Do you like going in Tabercrombie don't? Don't. Don't do
it make that heppy with anything? Stun don't don't.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
It makes me feel skinny and young. But I also
can't stand the smell because they spray colone on everything.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
I don't know when you missed the that Abercrombie has
not hip and cool, but that train sailed or sorry,
rode off into the sunset. That's fine twenty five years ago.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
But I'm just saying it makes me feel young and
skinny going in there, seeing all the you know, thin models. Okay,
all right, can we go and eat because I need
to get into some shorts. What You're already in your shorts,
I know, but I need to untie them. So let's eat.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
This is your eating outfit.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Yeah. I was not happy with the scale this morning,
but you know, it is what it is, as they say.
So this episode is going to be called new and improved.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Oh boy, I already can tell what's happening, what it's
going to be like when you brought out the uh
what was the last cereal?

Speaker 1 (02:40):
We did the Cookie Crisp, but with the thirty percent
more ches.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yeah, it's gonna be all cereals we already tried, but
they say on the box it's new and improved.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Yeah. Well, and you know what, I also didn't have
time for today that I was going to do. You
could have made it much easier for me, but still
haven't done it. I was going to go back on
the cereal list.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
I gotta get that website up.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
And you've been saying that since ten episode go.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Well, technically it's September and I did say it would
be done by the end of August. So oh, it's
up online now why don't you just go check it? Scott?

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Where is it?

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Serial KILLERSPC dot com O?

Speaker 1 (03:09):
All right, I'm gonna go check it right now. Oh,
So what I was saying is I really wish I
could have looked. I just think I took us off
the air. I really wish I could have looked to
see the ratings that we gave these cereals originally.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Well you can at serial KILLERSPC dot com.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
All right, So I got a package from Post Consumer
Brands about a week ago. You know, all these serial
influencers get boxes from them. Although they did skip us
on the Dunkin Cereal and I don't know why.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
But it's okay because Duncan took over, like was more
in charge of that one.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Nothing to do with it. The name is just licensed,
that's all. It is, just like the cereal that I'm
about to pull out of the cereal sack.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
I already can see it. You didn't really have to
pull anything.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
It is reintroduced from Post Chips Ahoy Cereal.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
I remember we didn't really love this one.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Right, we didn't, and perhaps that's why they reformulated it.
It says new cookie Cereal flavor, love it or it's free.
You know who else uses that line? Maultimeal that's right,
also made by posts very good Andrew, you've learned something.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Sometimes we did this cereal with Gandhi a few episodes.
Well we did a cookie yeah, back in the beginning.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
We did a cookie episode and was this and it
was the other cookie crisp and some other maybe cookie
cookie type cereal. So here's all the paperwork that we
got from Post and they give us little recipes. You
can make chips of hoy cereal mini ice cream sandwiches.
That sounds like fun. Hello, they're cereal, lover, I'm not
going to read the whole.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Love, I'm sorry, but those cereal very little are not big.
How small is the cereal?

Speaker 1 (04:42):
You're just appetizers. They're appetizers and you use a tiny
little DEMI, what is that spoon called the really little teaspoon?
Not a teaspoon, it's a really little.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Right, almost like the one that used to crack an
egg like a fancy fresh restaurant, sure French, not fresh. Yeah,
the one. You know, it's like in a little you
get an egg and you have to like tap it
to open it.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Yeah, I don't think that's what it's for.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yes, it is, because they make the actual tray for
an egg that you open up. Okay, do you not
know what I'm talking about. People even eat hard boiled
eggs out of it sometimes.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
No, no, no, that's not what I'm talking about. It's
a tiny little.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Spoon, I know. But that same tiny little spoon is
also used to crack eggs open. Oh. I don't know
why this is stressful to you. I'm just explaining, Oh
my god, your butt crack is why hanging out? All right?
So a lot of fresh air happening over there, and
because of that, we're gonna use one percent milk today
because I'm trying to stay fit and trim. You texted

(05:41):
me earlier saying you gave up exercising. Well, you know,
it's too hot to ride my bike? Is that what
happens when you're forty three forty four through? I did
get a sweet new bike from Priority Bikes. Uh, there
is company in the city here. And I won the
bike from iHeartMedia. Wow.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
You know what do they call that? The like the
entertainment team nowstays the party team.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Yeah, so I entered and I won it. I'm very
Excited's priority of bicycles I'm having to put together right now.
I'm gonna ride nice good for you. I mean, I
do have my Shwin from nineteen ninety seven that I've
been riding for I don't know, thirty plus years. Still works,
But new bike nw me.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
You're gonna ride it to dairy Queen? Who are you kidding?

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Dairy Queen's a little far. Maybe I'll ride it to Wendy's.
All right, let's go one, two, three.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Hmmm.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
This is good. I don't think we had the same
reaction to the other one.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
No, this tastes like old cookie crisp. Yeah, I'll give
you that, and I like it. Yeah, I give his
four balls in a spoon.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
This tastes like Ralston cookie crisp. What's Ralston? Right?

Speaker 2 (06:40):
You said it, not me?

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, it was you saying it. I was saying it
as you because you were gonna say it. Okay, do
we have the old one? I'm just looking at the
Cereal vault.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
It's not a vault, it is. It's a shelf. It's
a disgusting shelf with old, stale cereal. When are you
gonna let it go? Take the high school ring off,
let your cereal babies go. Yeah, we don't have the
old one because it was you know, maybe it's not
on the shelf. Maybe it's in the stack of cereal
you have in the corner.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
No, that's all newer stuff. Okay, I'm also gonna get
four balls in a spoon. I like it.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah, same, that was good.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
I guess we don't have to get it for free
because we love it.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yeah. Highly recommend the new post original chips a hoy
Cereal New and Approved. Yeah, delicious.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
I might make cookie ash cream sandwiches with them later.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
Have a great time with that. When you spoon out
like a small serving of ice cream, a dollop of
ice cream, you can't even dollop it.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
No, you need to use the demispoon. Is that what
it's called? Can you look it up?

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Like?

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Can you do something? You're on your phone constantly? Can
you just look like looking?

Speaker 2 (07:40):
If I picked up my phone to look up what
the spoon was called before you announced that I could,
you would have been like, uh, here we go, well
taking out your phone. Yes, it's a demi spoon. Yay.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
So I was trolling around the aisle yesterday in the
supermarket because I needed more than one new and improved cereal.
So I found another with a little banner on the
front of it. This one says now with more real cocoa.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
Oh yeah, you could also use this for eggs. No
oh no, no, no horn spoons.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Those are the bigger ones. Man horn spoon, the demispoon.
If you put an egg on it, that would be
like a balancing contest like at field Day.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
You don't put the egg on the spoon. What the
egg comes and it's a little silver thing and it
holds the egg.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
I know what an egg holder looks like. And you
go tick tick with the spoon.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
Okay, So then why were you going to egg competition
on a spoon? I don't Kellogg's chocolate frosted flakes now
with more real cocoa.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Andrew, look how excited Tony is great? It is great.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
I just I don't know if I liked this one
chocolate frosted flakes of corn de mais.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
You love that?

Speaker 2 (08:51):
I do like when you say things like that.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
So more cocoa is always good, Andrew.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, this is gonna be uh interesting.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
As a matter of fact. Oh m, it smells quite cocoly.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
After this episode?

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Are we going to do like weight Watchers?

Speaker 2 (09:07):
No, that's for you. I was gonna.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Say, sorry, ww go on.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
I was going to say, like, are we doing any
not old rehash ceials.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
Yeah, in the next episode, Okay, go ahead. When we
get an episode one.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Great, I can't wait until we start getting into the
two hundreds because then it'll be the Scotti's Weights episode.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
Yeah, that's some funny stuff. So you know, it's because
we're on still vacation this week. Today's the last day
of vacation for us. So I just figured instead of
doing the replay of episode two, which I think we
should still do because people want to hear it, because
you can't figure out how to get a backup on
the platforms. I don't know why, So we're just going
to do the new and improved episode. So's it's kind
of lazy, but not so much because we're actually doing stuff.

(09:47):
If that makes sense now I get it. Yeah, you
didn't even want to come in today. You blew me
off multiple times this week.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Shut you're multiple I wanted. I try to reschedule to Friday,
and you go tentatively, just tentatively that means yes. And
so then you message me on Thursday night saying see
you tomorrow, pal. Ye've never followed up, and then I said, uh, okay,
can we just do Monday because We're already ahead several episodes,

(10:12):
and I was going to come in next week anyway
to help you record.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Are you speaking?

Speaker 2 (10:17):
I am speaking, so some of these if you actually
open up your ears, you'd be able to hear me.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Some of these flakes are not completely codd, which I
find strange. If there's more cocoa.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
You're cereallessly obsessed.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Oh all right, here we go.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
You gave me too many. I take one bite of
the cereal. Why do you give me so much to waste?

Speaker 1 (10:36):
I don't know if it tastes like there's more coco,
it tastes like a different kind of coco.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Oh mam, math club you think so mm hmm hu
I like it. That's really gub. I'm gonna give us
four balls.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
See and I kind of disagree. That'sh The lushas kind
of disagree. I don't love it. I do. I wish
this one was love it or it's free, but I
bought that one. I give it three bowls.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Now Here out of the Cereal vault is chocolate frosted
flakes with marshmallows. Okay, but I'm wondering if like the flakes.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
You know it's going to be stale. Why are you
doing this?

Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's good until August thirty. First, dude, that was last week.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Do you remember how disgusting?

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Put your hand out.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
I don't want to try old.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
It's not old. Put your hand out.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's soggy. You're right because for some reason the cereal
turns soggy.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Don't crunch you. I don't know. I like to coco
on the old one better.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
No, I like this new one.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Well to each his own, as they say, yes, what
wasn't even mean?

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Different strokes like different?

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Oh, different strokes? Now the world don't move different drum
different might ride for you, not be ride for some
A man is bored. He's a man of means.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
But I'm going to take you to the bike shop.
Oh you're surprised I knew that episode. Huh cut you
off guard.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
It's only because I had mentioned it once before.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
No, I know the bike episode. Everybody knows the bike episode.
Are you an Adelaide or a Pearl? Okay that I
don't know what you're talking exactly, so weird.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Adelaide was the original Maid cool, and then Pearl took
over great, and then Sam came and messed everything up.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
Amazing.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Who Sam?

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Seriously, who is saying the.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
Little redhead kid? We got one more. I scoured the
aisles for new and approved stuff Goward, and I found
another one that had a thing on it that said stuff. Yeah,
I'm gonna go down to the cereal sack and grab it.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Oh, corn pops?

Speaker 1 (12:29):
You love color pops?

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Corn pop?

Speaker 1 (12:31):
What does that say?

Speaker 2 (12:31):
Right there?

Speaker 1 (12:32):
Andrew?

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Crunchy sweetness?

Speaker 1 (12:33):
More crunchy sweetness. I'm in And you couldn't think that
it would get any sweeter?

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Is that even possible? I, to be honest, don't think
it's that sweet.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
No, how come here, it's just corn pops. And it
doesn't say mayse pops on this one.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Oh down here cereal day maise end duel zodough great, Yeah,
I mean sweetened corn cereal.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
I mean that doesn't have as much of a zing
to it.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
Look, they got a rock band on the back as
a whole thing going on. I like this. There's lots
of things to do.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Yes, Kellogg's I feel like always has good boxes.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Yeah, well, you know I took a trip to Battle
Creek one time. Oh boy here I was a consultant
on their box art.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Great Yeah, anybody consulting you for anything should be very disappointed.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Now these look a bit darker than the original pop
because they're cooked. Gotta have them pops cooked with more sugar.
They're not cooked baked, thank you deep fried. I think
they're popped, right. I wonder if they actually scott they're
not real corn?

Speaker 2 (13:33):
Well, I would be inter I'm sure I could find
it on TikTok. What how they make corn pops?

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, it's just a machine that spits them out.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
No, but like, I'm sure there's someone who's like, I'm
going to show you how to make homemade corn pops.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Now here's the cool thing. I got an original old box.
What you just rolled your eyes so big? I want
I want you to be able to taste the difference. Okay,
so I got this gas station package of the old ones. No,
they do look the same. It was my theory out
the window. But we're gonna have to try both of them.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
Differences troops, difference troops, oh Scrookes, and different strokes.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
No, it doesn't end like that. It's through the world
ready more sweet crunchiness.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Corn pop classic four balls. There's nothing sweet more sweet
about it. They're delicious corn pops and they get five balls.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Let's try this one just for S and g's. Let's
try this one.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Look back, what's s and G's and giggles? Oh you
have to bleep the S word?

Speaker 1 (14:34):
Yeah, I just did.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
Otherwise then I have to mark this podcast episode is explicit.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Now we don't do that.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
This is a family friendly podcast.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
Try that one, Try the old one, and then try
the new one again. Ready old I would say the
new ones actually are sweeter. I don't taste that, I do,
I do.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
No, they're the same thing.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
I think the new one's a little sweeter.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Okay, I disagree. Okay, they taste the same. It's the
same cereal. I don't be afraid that it says more sweetness.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
How about I read the sugar content?

Speaker 2 (15:01):
I mean, sure, go for it.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
The old one total sugars six grams and added sugars
twelve percent. Let's see here sugars on the new one. God,
they don't make it easy to read. They don't want
you to know.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
Do you want me to help you?

Speaker 1 (15:15):
No? Total sugars fifteen grams. There's more. There's a lot
more sugar in here.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
That's almost scary. A sweeter Well, wait, We also have
to keep in mind the size of that is different.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Yeah, but the serving size is probably the same. Let's
say serving size twenty one grams. I can't read it.
It's in so many languages.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Can I just look at the box for you.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
Serving size forty grams? Yeah, so it's manie one or
two grams more of it. That's a big math problem.
I can't deal with it.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
You really can't double the number. Thank you for listening
to Serial Killers. I hope you have a great weekend.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
We appreciate you listening back Monday with an all new
episode and an all new cereal.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
Please tell me you're not homeschooling your children.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Well, what's going to happen is school is going to
open this week. Yeah, and everyone's going to go back
for a week, and then all the schools are going
to get shut down.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
Please tell me you're not homeschooling your field.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
I mean, I don't want to, but I have my
feeling that's what's going to happen.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
God. The fact that you could not double a number
scares me.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
It wasn't double. It was a much different serving size.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
It was twenty one. No was the serving size. The
other one was forty, so you just double it.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
No, that's not double dude, there's another digit there, twenty
one double is forty two not forty? Yes?

Speaker 2 (16:26):
And what was the serving size on that one? I
care O?
