It's pumpkin spice is a known white girl thing. Oh okay,
haven't you ever seen? It's very like no I get it.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I get it, but I just I hate all things
pumpkin spice. Why because it's fake. Pumpkin doesn't have a flavor.
There's no Have you ever eaten a piece of pumpkin.
You don't eat pumpkin like that exactly because it doesn't
have a flavor. You have to put all kinds of
crap into it. There's no pumpkin spice. It's basically nutmeg
and cinnamon. That's what pumpkin spice is. Pumpkin is not
(01:38):
a thing.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
No, you're arguing a different point. You're basically saying, oh, yeah,
the cucumber has no taste. Yes it does, but like
a pickle is a pickle?
Speaker 2 (01:49):
No, it makes no sense to me. You can't. No,
I just pump pump damour. No, Pumpkin's a squash, okay,
And if you just boil it up or whatever and
eat it, it doesn't have a flavor.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
You can, though, yeah, if you add stuff to it,
the same way you add stuff to cucumbers.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Who add stuff to cucumbers?
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Everybody we like? Don't you ever have summer salads where
they put like a little bit of fetup.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
No, that's disgusting. I don't eat that crap, so.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
You don't eat healthy things.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
I do. But I'll slice up a cucumber and eat it,
and it tastes like cucumber again the same way. It
gives not a flavor, It is a flav far You
have to add all kinds of crap to its spice.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
You have to add crap to a lot of things.
You could put this sa spic There are a lot
of base things that you're talking.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
It taste is red.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
You can eat a pumpkin by itself. You can.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
You can put the same spice in a butternut squash
and it'll taste exactly the same. And you could just
call it pumpkin spice.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Okay, pumpkin pumpkin pot Your your argument makes no sense.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
They sell little bottles of pumpkin spice and all it
is nutmeg and cinnamon. That's what it is. Well, I mean,
there's nothing to do with pumpkin. Let's just go. I
don't care. Okay, you're listening to the Brooklyn Boys.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I'm scary.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
That's Brody going down to the cerreo sack first, and

your special k pumpkin spice. All right, let's see how
it tastes. I don't want to do this episode.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
We can't do a whole episode of every time you

Speaker 2 (03:15):
I want nothing to do with it. I hate it.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Okay, that's on you. I don't know what to tell you.

We're doing it for the listeners because I love you,
but I hate pumpkin spry.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I like pumpkin spice, and I think that you're being
a hater.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Every September, my wife brings home a pumpkin spice candle
from Home Goods and I vomit. I'm gonna get it
out of here.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Like, where did pumpkin spice hurt you as a child.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
As a child, we didn't have pumpkin spice. This is
a millennial thing. He were here, pick your damn spoon.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
So pumpkin spice is now just purely millennial.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Oh my god, what is this garbage? Oh I didn't
do Scotti. Shake on it. There's stuff in here. Hold on.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Oh, you are such a baby, a millennial with your
pumpkin spicce.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
It smells like a candle shop.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I love candle shops.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
By the way, No, because so many fragrances mixed together
and it gives me.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
A hand love it. Yeah, I mean you can't stay
in there for longer than like.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Every time you go to the mall. My wife goes
to sepour. I'm like, get me out of here. It's
so many smells all coming together, choking from smelling this.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
It's not that bad.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
You're being such a baby going down to the fridge.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Good luck, God, buss are you today?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Look we have today? We have skim plus lactose free,
fat free milk.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Love it.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
It is actually really good. I love this milk.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Can I tell you what I did this weekend?
Speaker 2 (04:36):
No? Why wouldn't you just tell me? Like I hate
people say, hey, can I ask you a question?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
You just did? Well? What if I'm busy? I've told
people before? Can I ask you a question? I'll be like, yeah,
not right now, I've said that to people before.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
But that is a question. You might as well have
just asked the other question and killed you know, save
the time.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
This episode is just us arguing with each other.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
We always argue, all right.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Again, what wind up happening? Was I bought oat milk?
Do you know what?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Because it's disgusting.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
No, because I am so tired of just throwing out
milk after two weeks. This one doesn't expire until November,
so I cheaped out and was like, I'll just get it.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Okay, hold on, you still have to drink it within
two weeks of opening it. You know that, right. It
doesn't just expire on that date. Are you not aware
of that?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
What?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
It's good until then if you haven't opened it yet.
Once you open it, you must drink it within a
week or two or it goes bad, just like any
other milk. No, yes, no, yes, okay, you know what,
drink that at the beginning of November. Let me know
how you make out. All right, So here is your
special cat.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I'm dead.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
You know it's funny because Jake, who was leaving the
show unfortunately, told me that I should start a podcast
just called learn about Life where I say things like that,
and I teach people that have no idea what they're
talking about the ways of life.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Except the minute anybody disputes any of your facts, you
can be like, no, shut up.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Hate it. That's why I'm gonna do it alone, Millennial.
I won't dispute myself here we go, especially k pumpkin spices.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Um huh okay, I'm into it.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
All right, It's not as bad as I thought. I'll
say that.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yeah, you know what it tastes like?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah, I because I just ate it. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
What if I could, I would bitch slap.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You right now, shooting daggers at me. I am go ahead.
What does it taste like?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
It tastes like a cinnamon toast crunch.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Tastes nothing like cinnamon toast crunch, like.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
A lighter cinnamon TOAs crunch, not at all. It has
a weird aftertaste. Maybe it's because they just had spicy chickpeas.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
It's also like yogurt. Covered had one of those.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It was delicious.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, I did like that. Naturally flavored with other natural flavors,
crunchy wheat and rice flakes with nutmeg, all spiced ginger
and cinnamon clusters. I don't like ginger. That's my problem.
I don't like ginger in anything. I hate ginger.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
To be honest with you, I'm with you on that one.
Like whenever people get sushi and they put ginger on it,
and I'm like, that's gross.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I don't even let it touch my stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yeah, no, I'm not into that. I give this three bowls?
Would I reach for this first thing?
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I'll also give it three balls because you know what,
it's not as bad as I thought it would be.
But what happened? What happened? You? Going down?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
I got a cluster of something. It was too much spice.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
That's the thing. I just don't think it belongs in cereal.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
I keep my three bowl r right.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I'll do the same. You know, it's not awful. And
all these pumpkin spice cereals they come out right around
this time of year. Most of them have been around
for a few years because pumpkin spice was all the
rage starting like what twenty fourteen.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Or so when millennials took over.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
That's right, and that's when all this stuff started coming out.
So there's also a pumpkin spice cheerios. I just I wasn't.
I didn't want that because do you have that? No,
because it's just like cheerios dusted with No, I don't
prop dusty. Yeah, it wasn't into it, all right, So
let's go back down the sack.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Know what, I hate what there's somebody who vague posts
on their Instagram, uh huh, where it'll literally just be
like a picture of like a kid on their phone
and it'll be like, we didn't have this in my day.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Hashtag millennials, hashtag pumpkin spice.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
What are you like? What kids are on their phones
now is a bad thing?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I'm confused now, I'm with you. There's plenty of stuff
that you know is around now that I didn't have
in my day, But I'm happy that it's here.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Plus, like you guys in the seventies, like used to
have lead wallpaper, no paint. Oh sorry, paint, My apologies.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
That's okay.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
So like maybe it's not the worst thing that you're
on a phone just saying.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I hear you're getting cancer in your ear, but otherwise
all right. So now here's another one from Kellogg's.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah you ready, yeah, oh.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Pumpkin spice frosted mini wheats. I can already tell you
I'm a little disturbed.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Why because the frosted mini wheat part it looks like
it's like has Cheeto dust on it.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Yeah, it's orange. It's a white and orange.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
To me in orange looking cereal. That's not natural.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
It says it's naturally flavored that's not natural.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Get it off my lawn.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Ingredients, whole grain, wheat, sugar.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I'm ready.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
The back is very fall. You know some little muffins
there like summer. I like summer.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Yes, are you excited it's fall?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Well that was a direct answer.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Is that the only question?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
I mean, I could keep asking you. I love the fall.
I used to hate the fall. Now I'm a huge fan.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
There are pumpkin seeds on the front of this box.
That doesn't who eats? Well, yeah, I guess you do
eat pumpkin seeds.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
You have been studying this box for far too long.
Let's take a more eating.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Okay, so this will be around for a couple more weeks.
Grab it while you can. I'm sure by mid October
or so, you won't see these anymore. It's a strong bag,
there is They.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Me like a chai one cereal?
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Yeah, there was some sort of latte something or other.
I would love that frousted miniweeds.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
I'm so into that chai. It is like one of
my favorite flavors.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I think it was chai though. All Right, I wonder
where this orange coloring comes from.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I'm not looking forward to this, but I can't wait
to see what it looks like.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
It looks exactly what it looks like on the box.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
That means it's gonna look nasty. Oh, I wonder if
the milk is going to turn orange.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
The mini weeds look almost gray. Hey, look spooky.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, that's weird. Oh the look of an orange cereal
is just a giant no in my book.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Unless it's OJ's from Kellogg's in the eighties.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
That's not coming back. Scott. You're the only person who
made that petition.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
But it was orange.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Yeah, that's cool. Ready, I'm in I like it or both?
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Wow, I can't believe I like this.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Do you liked it?
Speaker 2 (10:18):
You want of those other episodes when you yell and
scream it you think you're gonna hate something and then
you like it. That's how I feel now.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Yeah, because this isn't bad. The shoe is on the
other foot.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Why doesn't that phrase work? I don't know it does?
You're an idiot? Four balls? Am I just gonna sit
here and watch it?
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Chew. I'm thinking this is me thinking I like this cereal?
I really do. Okay, three balls in a spoon?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Cool?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I like it?
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Great? This was definitely better than the special. Okay, it
has a little bit more flavor, but I still stick
with my guns saying, do not make an orange colored
cereal gelatin?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Why is there gelatin in here? Probably for the orange
A nato extract color. What's in a nato ann a
tt o? Would you look that up for me? A
na toe a n n a tt o.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
An orange red dye obtained from the pulp of a
tropical fruit used for coloring foods or fabric. The fact
that you can color food or.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Fabric, that's a little un all right, We'll see how
that works out later on. Okay, so I'm gonna go
back down to the cereal sack. There's one more pumpkin
spice cereal for this episode.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Is this the bonus box?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
It's not a bonus box. This one was around last
year too. I remember seeing it, and we've done a
few of these varieties before and not it was weird looking.
Oh look at that. Yeah, it looks like a vagina.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah. I was gonna say, well, I wasn't gonna say it,
but then you said.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Well you thought it, so I just said it. All right,
Here we go, and the third and final cereal of
this episode has fall festivities on the back. Okay, are
you able to tell what kind of cereal it is
from looking at the back?
Speaker 1 (11:50):
No?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
No, because a bunch of kids frolicking in the leaves
with some sort of pumpkin maize. Life is full of
beautiful moments. I just gave you a hint. Do you
know what the cereal is?
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Corn pops.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Life is full of beautiful moments.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Cinnamonto's crunch, Oh, cinnabon cereal.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
No, none of that is pumpkin spice. Life is full
of beautiful moments.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Is Mikey coming right? Oh?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Hey, Mikey, Pumpkin spice Life. I don't know about this one. Again.
The one thing I do like about life is it
has all like the little granules of sugar and stuff
in the middle.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
But remember we hated Vanilla Life.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I didn't hate it, I did, but it's certainly not
as good as Vanilla checks.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
That's why I love og Life.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
All right, So, limited time, limited edition Quaker Life Cereal.
You know, we just saw a commercial today for Life Cereal,
which there hasn't been a commercial for Life Cereal in
many years.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
I saw a commercial for Cereal only this weekend, and
I was like, I haven't seen a ceial commercial and
soul it's just.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Because you notice it now because of this podcast. True,
But the New Life commercial says Mikey likes it. But
there's a little girl in it, so I'm not quite sure.
I didn't hear it. I only saw it.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Mikey got old, so they did fire him. All right,
once you push second grade, they can't have you as
the life Get hold on. Don't bring the bowl over.
You've gone so many.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Hey, can I have your cup?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
But like, do you know what an idiot you look
like when you do that?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
That's why we're it'ts a podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
No one can see us, but I can visually tell
them what just happened.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Go ahead.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Scott decided on the third box of cereal that we
ate on the the last cup he was going to pour,
he needed to actually put it into a dog bowl
to make the clinking sound. It's not a dog bowl,
it is, it, says Max. And there's paw prints on it.
If you're gonna put it in there, that means you
have to eat it from there.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Here you go, Andrew, it's pumpkin spice Life from Quaker.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Ready, I guess all right?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Oh, my goodness, Oh lord, Mike be what have you gone?
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Dutch? Terrible? There's a lot of it. There's a lot
of nutmeg in there that is no good. U know what, dude,
that's horrendous. One spoon yep. Wow.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
It just tastes like cinnamon challenge, Like it just feels
like I dumped an entire thing of cinnamon on my tongue.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
So now I really don't even taste cinnamon. I taste
all nutmeg.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
That is disgusting. Nutmeg disgusting, sorry, absolutely nasty, rotten cereal.
Mikey what.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
I don't have anything that says he doesn't like it,
so we'll just say we don't like it.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
It's nasty, Like, who in their right mind ate this
and then thought to themselves, let's put it in a
box and sell it to people.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
And coming back for another season. It was here last year.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
It seems like maybe this batch is out of season.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
It's funny, okay, Dad, It's funny because on the display
there were coupons and it was save a dollar if
you buy two, and I was really debating buying two
of them, and I'm glad I didn't.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
If you bought two box of this, I would have
there's a lighter right here, we would have lit that
bitch up because no one.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Should ever eat that cereal. All right, well, thank you
for listening to this edition, the special edition, the Pumpkin
spice edition of Serial Killers. Yes, and we probably won't
do another one of these.

any day now. The monster cereals will hit the shelves
