Speaker 2 (00:38):
By the way, yes, do you know something that's not
quite right with that intro? Up right?

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Do you of right?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
No? No, we're recording.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
She's interning.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah. So anyway, Welcome to Serial Killers. This is podcast
where we talk about cereal and we eat it and
we try it, and we'll let you know whether it's
good enough for you to try it based on our
rating system, which we do with balls and spoons. You know,
it's been a while since we actually explained that our
rating system goes from one spoon all the way up
to five balls. So if we want to give you

(01:27):
two and a half balls, that's two balls and a spoon.
As you can see, I'm patting, just waiting for Andrew
to get back in. What happened is that's a brand
new intern. I believe her name is Nicole and she's
from Staten Island, and seeing that we don't have a
big flashing recording or on air light on this door,
no fault of hers. She did not know that we
were recording, even though when she looked through the door

(01:48):
she could see that we were both speaking into microphones.
Thank you, Nicole, Yes that's her name, right.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Yeah, okay, sorry, I'm intern coordinating. So these are my
little chickens.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
That I got. Cool man, you should teach them like
when people are talking a microphones. What's crazy is when
you used to have the records on Yeah I don't
have that moved into this studio.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
They were just like, what's that?

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Maybe I should make a piece of paper and just
like stick it on the door.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
I love that for you.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Yeah yeah, anyway, Andy, I forgot where we were. Oh
so the opening, the opening little song there? Did you
know what was wrong with it?

Speaker 1 (02:23):
The checks? Crispies of rice.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
You're close, You're very close. It's the checks. They don't
make vanilla checks anymore. Checks, Vanilla wish that's true. Look,
it was the purple box. Everyone else in the cereal
world would know that. Speaking of vanilla, Andrew, I was

(02:52):
in the aisle at the shop ride the other day
and secret squirrel Joel failed to let me know that
this one had come in. I didn't know about it. Okay,
I didn't know about it.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Okay, Okay.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
There's been lots of special k cereals, okay with strawberries involved.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Strawberries.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yes, you got your red berries, you got your yogurt things,
you got your red other ones and more strawberry stuff.
And so I found this, Andrew, and it said new
and we hadn't done it, didn't know about it. Here
it is. It's special case strawberry and vanilla made with
yogurty old clusters.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Now, we had a similar one with Bananasa cream, not
to every long.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
I remember the yogurt clusters.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yes, that's the mixed berry one.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
I guess I should do a thing while I'm shaking
this up, right Andy, right now. One of our great
listeners sent me a video of him shaking his box.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
I know he tagged us both.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Did you see that?

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
If I was a good guy, I'd remember his name?

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Can you take a picture of you with us to
post in our cruncher chat on Instagram?

Speaker 1 (03:52):
I'm doing this, sure, yeah, hold please.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
I still don't know how to use that.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yes you do.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
I get seven thousand notifications. Know what's going on.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Because they're all active in there, and so should you
think about it like your thing with the facebooks, not
like the facebooks for Bolos?

Speaker 2 (04:09):
For what Boilos? What's that? Frand pause?

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Oh I actually knew that. Wait not yet? Come on, bro,
how do you take a thing?

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (04:17):
Cool?

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Ready?

Speaker 1 (04:18):
One? Two? How do I take a picture?

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (04:22):
There it is?

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Oh my god, speaking of a Boilos three?

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Is that good?

Speaker 2 (04:27):
It went all over me?

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Great?

Speaker 2 (04:29):
That's terrible. But okay, okay, no, it's a fun it's
an action shot. I don't really care.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
Look at what cereal we are doing for Monday's episode.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, gonna go back to the Farmland Fresh Dairies fridge.
Why do you always talk over me what I'm talking
about our sponsors.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
I love Farmland Fresh Dairyes see, I just mentioned them
for you.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
We're gonna use home milk today, Andrew. Okay, remember anytime
you're in front of the fridge, case look.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
For the cow face. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I really of
that slogan. I hope farm Land Fresh Dairies does as
much as we do.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Although I said milk case, actually not fridge case. So anyway,
here's your spoon. No, I messed up. So you got flakes.
Some of them are coated with strawberry. There's tiny little
clusters in here, Andrew, the milk is already turning pink,
and I love that about it.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
I cannot see one yogurt cluster.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
I have some.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
I don't have any, Like I'm just being real. Maybe
that's it. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Oh that's nice right away, I'm getting any strawberry quick
flavor yum. Right, huh wow. You're not a big fan
of the red berries one right, No, but this is
not like that at all.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Hmm show blind.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
It's nice. It's not overpowering. No, it is naturally flavored,
so there's nothing artificial in here, and it's made with
yogaty old clusters. This is pretty damn good. Andy, Wow,
what are you thinking? Oh see there's the cluster. So
the cluster.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
I know they're gonna be like shut up, here we go.
I have a five bowls. Wow, that's delicious.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
It is really good.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
That's like for a breakfast cereal. It tastes different. I
like it. It's not too crunchy. The strawberry is perfect.
I'm a big fan.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
And the milk taste a little bit like strawberry quick
from when we were kids, well from when I was
a kid, because when you were a kid, they only
had it in the cartons. When I was a kid,
that had the powder with the quarter. You know, you
know they still do well, they don't.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
They don't have any powder.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
Not with the quarter. Okay, we gotta flip it the metal.
Yeah you know what I'm saying. Yeah, you mean to me?

Speaker 1 (06:44):
How are you? Okay?

Speaker 2 (06:46):
So a few weeks ago I was over at the
Ideal Food Basket on Long Island.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
That unit't rate it.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
I did four balls in a spoon.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
Yeah now you said it.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
I just did. I wrote it down though, Yeah, you know,
so is it the Ideal Food Basket? The little market
out there? Cool? I was looking for for some some
turo mix. I don't it was just weird that we
stopped there. Anyway. So they carry the brand Essential every day.
You can get that in some that's like a store
brand at some stores fun and I saw these cocoa crunchies.

(07:19):
So it's the same kind of font that is right
at them. Suit, isn't that theft of funt?

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Well? So we're doing something similar with our koozies right now, Technically.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
It's you are not us. I am not getting in trouble.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
I am doing something, but it falls under parody law.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
Oh what are you weird? Al?

Speaker 1 (07:40):
Yes, Scott, we're weird. Al But I think because it's
called cocoa crunchies. But I mean it's the same shape,
same fut's, the same fonts.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
I don't know how they're gonna get around this one,
but I'm praying for them, that's all I'll say.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Now these look, these are a little bit bigger than
cocoa puffs. They're not eating, smell like they don't they're
not evenly coded. And I will say they're only open
because Diamond popped in here the other day and she's like,
I'm want to try those, And it was her birthday.
I allowed it. I don't remember, Okay, I don't pay
much attention when she comes in here. Oh wow, you know,

(08:18):
is there anything?

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Oh, there's some fun stuff off the This is a
small novel.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
What's going on?

Speaker 1 (08:22):
There is too much going on. I can't even read it.
Somebody screenshot it and just read it.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Wait, what happened? Enjoy that accidents happened? Is that?

Speaker 1 (08:29):
What the accidents happened? Himself?

Speaker 2 (08:31):
A microwave? What's going on?

Speaker 1 (08:32):
Microwaves?

Speaker 3 (08:33):
During World War Two, a radar specialist was tinkering around
with microwave emitters when he was shocked to realize that
the chocolate bar in his pocket began to melt. Like
any good scientists, he conducted more tests and found that
microwaves could actually be used to heat everything from corn
kernels to fhoale meals.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
Wow, oh, it's all just about accident and metal. No, no,
you can't microwave metal.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
I know my kids found that out not too long ago.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
As a kid, we would sometimes put tinfoil in the
microwave just to watch it spark up for like two seconds.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
But that destroys the microwave. Also, by the way, look
they'm in an error on the back there. Look it's
an accident. What is the first one there? Popsicle that
is a brand name? It is. Yeah, people don't realize it.
You're using popsicle sticks. But no, popsicle is a brand name. Wow.
Remember we had this whole argument. You can't call things
popsicle because it's not popsicles.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
I didn't know that. I don't remember that.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Pop sickle, fudge sickle, know what it tastes a little
bit like that.

Speaker 3 (09:30):
It's pretty close to coco puffs more corny whatever this is.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
And look some of them look like pac Man. Do
you remember pac Man cereal from the eighties? Mm hmmm
you do.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
Waco Wonka Wango wonkle It was in.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
A blue box, had marshmallows, was great.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Said, Wanka wonka wonka. It's waka waka waka, waca waca
waca waca waka. Like Fazzy Bear.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Who I know who Fazzi Bear is? Wagga walker?

Speaker 2 (09:59):
H you know what?

Speaker 1 (10:01):
It's not bad, It's not good.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
It is good.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
I can't give it three bowls. It's like a sad
replacement for cocoa puffs. No, isn't the bird the cocoa puffs.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
I'll give you ten bucks and you give me his name.
S oh and and y dude, I have a man
of my word.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Four balls essential everyday cocoa crunchies.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
It's not that good.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Available at some stores as their store brand. Yeah, well,
all right, well cool man, we'll be back right after this. Hi.
I'm Wilford Brimley and I've had diabetes for about twenty years.
I miss him. You say that I miss Wilford quite frequently.
I have my money back.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
No, come on, I earned that.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
You really thought you were going to do something right.
Next time you mess something up, I get it back now.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
You don't, why because you gave it to me. Sorry,
next time. Don't make bets with people that are gonna
win them.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
You ready for our next box? Andy?

Speaker 1 (11:26):
What if I said no?

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Then we'll just end it. Thanks for listening. Another one?

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Sure?

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Okay? Greenberry greenberry berry healthy cereal for your families it's grainberry,
grape berries, grete berries. Every once in a while, I'll
come across another cereal that we haven't tried, and you know,
I just figure, we've tried all the grainberries, but we
haven't this one.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Andrew.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
It's apple cinnamon with onyx sorghum.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
I love.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, So they're around their loops like, not this particular one.
We've had the honeywe and the other one, and maybe
the cinnamon one and whatever, but never the apple cinnamon.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
It's gonna taste like an apple cinnamon cheerio.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
I think that we did this, but I went to
Serial KILLERSPC dot com and I didn't see it.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Newman always keeps things up to date, I hope.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
So, I mean, it could be my fault, probably not,
but it could be coupons. There's coupons in here, Andrew.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
I never want to hear how the cereal is your
children after you just chucked it on the ground for coupons.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yeah, and they're all low, so they get doubled. I'm
so excited in this house. Full price is the F word.
It's gonna have take case. You're so mean to me,
all right.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
I feel like I need to put ex coupon X
Extreme Couponing stars Scottie be stars in this wildly hilarious
podcast about cereal.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
You're welcome.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
I think that'll win.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
Oh they're okay. So they're small. They almost look like
bird seed food. Whatever. I'll put these in my bird
feeder when we're done.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
What you have a bird feeder?

Speaker 2 (12:57):
I have two bird feeders.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
I want a bird feeder.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
I mean I want to worry put it, but you
just hang it from your balcony.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
I don't have a balcony. I live in a city.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Uh Farmland Fresh Dairy's whole milk with our grainberry apple
cinnamon loops.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
How much can a balcony cost?

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Michael?

Speaker 3 (13:15):
Did you ever watch the Rest of Development where she
gives him ten bucks or maybe it was twenty bucks
for a banana? Much could a banana cost?

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Michael?

Speaker 2 (13:23):
I don't know what's the punchline.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
It's just she has no real grasp on how much
things cost. God the same way that I feel like
people who live in the suburbs are.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Like, you don't have a balcony in your apartment?

Speaker 2 (13:36):
How I do you know like apple jacks? Yeahs, it
smells like apple Jackson a little bit too. It does
not taste like apple jacks. It tastes like it tastes
like a very very subdued apple jacks mixed with cardboard.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
Right, kind of feels like the grainberry went to rehab
and got rid of its apple cinnamon ways, and now
it's like a more mellowed out version of it.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
I mean, it's okay, it's not very sweet now if
you're looking for something a little not too sweet, maybe
a little healthier with some onyx sorghum. What exactly is
on exorg It's a it's a I think it's a
type of grain, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
It sounds like a robot.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
It's son remember it would be in like star Trek.
Look sun activated antioxidants.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
That means nothing to me. It's good for you, okay,
on exorgum in the West Texas sun. The darker gets
the healthier, it becomes free radicals.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
Ferocious defense against free racial uh radical threats? What against
radical threats?

Speaker 1 (14:43):
What are they doing with the on exorgum?

Speaker 2 (14:45):
I don't know, you know what? Three balls for me?
It's okay.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
My name is on the planet Cleepkloop. That's just what
I think. I don't know what this is. They're saying
it's a grain. Yeah, and it's even trademarked.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, it's their own special grain. The grainberry people.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
Onyx can help slow sugar absorption in our gut with
its unique composition in natural fibers that grow as the
plant grows.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
I remember the grain. The berry is the top part
of the grain there. That's that's what they call the berry.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
But so are they saying, like if I eat this, like,
I'm not going to get sick.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
No, it's like eating blueberries. The same thing is hidden. Yeah, antioxidants. Okay,
thank you for listening to Serial Killers. Oh you didn't
rate it out? Would you give it me.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
On eggs? Orgum says no, defense mode activated.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
What do you want to give it?

Speaker 1 (15:41):
I give it two bowls and a spoon.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
Two and a spoon. Okay, not terrible, middle of the road.
