Thank you, once again to our friends at General Mills,
and I'm gonna tell you why do you remember this?
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Hey? Kids, look much new. A brand new cereal just

storybook package see inside Delicious Crispy Crinkly Stars and outside
our real story books all about Twinkles, the Magic Elephant, Friends,
(01:46):
Beat Twinkles Friends, Pulton the Inventor, Sandford, the package, Wilber
the Monkey, and more.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Read all of my.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
Story book package.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Because of the storybook package and Twinkles. That was from
nineteen sixty.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
But what is the You weren't even alive. I was not,
So how are you saying? Do you remember this?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
You know? So there was a remembering. It was a
black and white commercial from the sixties. It had a
few different commercials with Twinkles. Because there was a storybook
on every box. You would get a storybook with lots
of stories about Twinkles adventures like he fell into a
ditch one time he flew away with his little propeller tale.
But the thing is, in the commercials from the sixties,
one of them had Twinkles as a male and another
one had Twinkles as a female. So I don't know
(02:26):
which one was the final one, you know, same animation,
different voice. It was very interesting. You should you should
YouTube that.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yeah, let me just go research tw Twinkles.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
And there were sixty second commercials.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Oh wow, it's back in the day.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Back in the day they had sixties you know.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Yeah, that's that's a lot of advertising.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So anyway, Genlemen Mills brought back Twinkles, same retro packaging,
but it's this boy. I don't know if that's boy
Twinkles or girls girl Twinkles. I didn't check under the
hood day. This is day twinks under the trunk. I
didn't look on the day Twinkles. Yeah, so this is
look there from their back to the nineteen sixties. Yeah, okay,
(03:06):
you like that look. And there's the friends on the side.
Is Wilbur there twin about Sanford.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Wilburt is a monkey, Leopold is a lion.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
That sounds right, and Sandford is a parrot too, can
Sanford is a parrot?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Oh yeah that too.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
But there's no story books anymore. Yeah, those were two costly.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I mean, was it a full book?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
It was a book? Yeah, you appealed it off and
it would be a book.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah, they definitely cut that.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, so I would love for them to come back
with other retro stuff.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I mean it sounds like what you said was that
it's the back to the nineteen sixties.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yes, but I don't know if this is going to
be the only one. Oh you know, maybe they just
put that there.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Who was the one person that got like moved up
to CEO of General Mills and was like.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
I loved twinkle old logo and everything just said bring
it back.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Well, because nostalgia is all the rage right now. Everybody
loves nostalgia.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
But like to that point, it is like millennial nostalgia
coming back.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
No, no, no, By the way, do you know what that's.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Called from the nineteen sixties is my parents? Okay, so
they wanted twinkles.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
That's why. That's why it took so long, because they
wrote letters and mailed them.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Okay, you know, General is just sitting on a stockpile
of sixty four thousand letters, thing, bring twinkles.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Do you know what that's called? Underneath the back to
the sixties thing? There? Look, there's one right there too.
There's one right there also. Chirn No, that's a test pattern.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Test pattern.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
That's right after midnight. A lot of the night TV
stations would go off the air. Yeah, and that would
just be there until they came back on the air,
beep and just yeah, I do know that. Like Poulter
guys everything, you'd wake up in the middle of the
night and oh the test pattern would be on beeping, yeah,
you know, or the fuzz, not police, the fuzz like
you know, God, you never got to experience like fuzz
on the TV. I did you did?
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
How about the scrambled stuff when you try to watch
dirty things? No, no, you're too young for that. That
is so anyway, twinkle cereal is star shaped.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
But what is twinkles?
Speaker 2 (04:58):
It's an elephant.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
But look, but I'm not eating elephants.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So what am I sweetened corn?
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Well?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
I thought somewhere on here, I thought it said cake
batter or somewhere or vanilla or something that doesn't even
say it. It's just a star shaped cereal goodness and
sweet and toasted corn. I thought there was a flavor
of some sort on here. I'm so confused. Well, anyway,
let's see, Andrew.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
There's stars, you know, star cereal.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Smell it.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
That's cake?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You know what it smells like and I don't want
to say because it's a different company and all. Actually,
you know what isn't I think it is General Mills
now Cookie crisps General Mills now, isn't it? I believe
it is.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Yeah, No, I was thinking the same thing. Well, I was.
That was spilling everyone.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
That was a bad tear. It smells like cookie crisp.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Eh, I don't get that.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Of course you don't know. Anything's Farmland Fresh Dairyes, whole
milk and the one gallon jug. I got that at
the Indian Market down the road from my house. I
found that store that sells Farmland Fresh dairies much closer
than when I used to go to it. Yeah, so
I'm very happy. Here go, buddy. Okay, we've had a
star cereal before. Yeah, this definitely smells like cookie crisp.
(06:07):
It does hmmm, not wonderful, lightly sweetened.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yeah, Wilbur, he's looking right at me. I'm gonna cut
that out, make finger puppets. What the thing is?
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I could see you walking around like, Hey, it's.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Got a nice flavor. I like it. It's not as
sweet as I thought it would be. It was less
sweet in the sixties, you know, things were not as sweet,
just saying and black and white not sweet. You know,
it all went together when color came out, things got sweeter.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Oh really, yeah, you lived through that time, so you did.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
I did. It was all about it.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yeah, I'm sure your parents told you tales of yesterdayear
when we had twinkles and had less flavor.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
It was funny speaking of tales of yesteryear. I actually
got some of these books that I saw advertise on Facebook.
It's like, Mom, what's your story, Dad, what's your story?
Or something?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Oh. I tried to do that with my parents, and
let me tell you something. They got the first prompt
and we're like, what the hell is that? And then
never filled it out and I spent eighty bucks.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah no, they've been writing it. I'm so excited. Wow,
thanks to back out when they're dead.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
That's what I was hoping that I would have nice
stories about, like oh, this and that, And then they
got the first prompts and said, we're good.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
This almost taste a little bit like kettle corn. It's nice, man.
I like it. I'm gonna give it.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Between three and I give it four bowls or it's nice.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I was gonna do four as well. Yeah, four balls
for twinkles. Twinkle yay, hey twinkle Leopold, Oh, thank you

Speaker 2 (13:10):
I don't want to swallow it. I really don't it
just like I'm eating a plant.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
It actually does right, Like this is what I would imagine,
like like a sugarcane.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
If I were to just like bite a sugar nose.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
That's probably sweet.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
No, I'm talking about like maybe the field is dead.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
When you were a little dead sugar cane when you
were little, did you ever just like slowly pull a
thick piece of grass out of the ground and chew
the white off the bottom? I used to do that.
We did that as kids. It was simpler times.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yeah, eating grass similar times. Yeah, did you grow up
on the Oregon Trail.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Like a camp or something? Even in my I would
sit in my backyard and you know, look up at
the sky and pull there. There was only certain pieces
that would pull up like that. If you'd pull, really
some pop.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Would come back from the water.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Whatever.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
If we'd bring back the water were so thisty.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
All the time, Candle, I guarantee you more than one
person that's listening right now knows what I'm talking about
and has done that. And you only eat the white
part off, But.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Only people in your age range.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Because once we became millennials, you guys weren't rock and
roll like us.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Because you guys like yeahs passed aside.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Yeah, well yeah, it's because they actually started putting pesticides
on the freaking grass.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Well, I mean they did that in the seventies, so
you know whatever DDT everything, Yeah, outlawed its how my
grandma's cat died actually, d DT.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Yeah, that's what he used to spray. Her cat used
to eat the grass. Coco Love, We loved Coco. He
was such a good cat. But when she moved that
she didn't realize that they treated the grass and Coco
would go outside to walk.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
That they didn't put this little yellow sign. Oh man,
I mean DDT was like back, it's in that song.
Put a paradise and paved the parking lot. That that one,
you know, d DT. That's when the airplanes used to
spray the powder on like the potato fields.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Is that the yellow yellow taxi cam? Yeah, Michelle Branch.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah, put up a parking lot. Yeah, DDT is an
that song. Unless I'm totally wrong, but I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I actually think I would like to look at it.
It's counting crows, Yes, look it up.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
It's big yellow taxi or something and it's Michelle Branch.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Yeah. They pave paradise and they put up a parking lot.
Be paradise, pull up a barcke or not. Man, his
hair was something. Yeah, yeah, those dreads.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I also watched a documentary about like the Dark Side
of Fame, a pretty messed up life.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
What's it called counting crows?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Not look that, I wasn't counting crows.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Or the taxi. It's taxi something yellow taxi?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Is it? Yeah? There it is. It was counting crows.
I'm sorry, you're right. Oh and it was Vanessa Carlton.
Oh my god, you said Michelle Branch, which I thought
was right you got. I don't know where the DDT part.
(15:52):
I think it's enjoy the version.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Taxi took him up till it's.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
I don't know, DDT isn't there somewhere. I could be
completely wrong, but I'm pretty sure he says it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
You, I mean what we look at the lyrics. Yeah,
we could have also done that.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
The skip CD version.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Of Big Yellow Taxi is Adam Durits. Was that his name?
Speaker 1 (16:23):
He had the crazy hair.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Yeah? They still tour, actually.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I mean I'm sure they do.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Anyway, While Andrews looking up the lyrics to Big Yellow Taxi,
we will be back right after this. Ah, the thing's
not pulled up.

you have no idea.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
He never knew.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
He used to drink from the hoses too, that's right,
when I don't drink from They had potato fields about
the house. Yeah, they outlawed all those pesticides, and the
potato bugs came and there was a blight or famine
or something.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
And all we never had potatoes.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And all that long island was a huge potato farms everywhere.
There's very few farms left. It's very it's sad.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
We were struck into a potato famine.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Like, let me save the faults, right, the rot camps.
They had the big potato farm behind our house. Yeah,
we used to go back to your free potatoes.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Father.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Can I have a potato? It's been but a forty night.
Speaker 2 (17:52):

Speaker 1 (17:57):
The big yellow taxi.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Thank you Matt again. Best Yet is the supermarket chain
that is in some areas, mostly in the Northeast, but
it could be elsewhere. Raisin bran wheat and brand cereal
Andrew raisin brand is always good generally, you know. I mean,
you can't go wrong with raisin bran.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yep, no, you can't.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
I mean, have we had a bad raisin brand now?
And raisin brand is one of those cereals that can't
be trademarked. So every brand can have a raisin bran.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yeah, that was a good like announcer voice to say it.
Every brand can have a raisin brand, yes.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Because you can't. You can't really trademark something that just
is it is. Yeah. Sure. By the way, there are
lots of people that have been asking for you to
do my my, you're me. There was some post that
were like, oh my god, can't wait till Andrew does that.
I don't remember what it was. It might have been Serial.
Speaker 1 (18:46):

Speaker 2 (18:48):
I posted something with it. I think it was the
one that I just posted that we're going to do
in the next episode. Let me check so best yet? Oh,
since eighteen ninety three, the flakes are a little flatter
than your typical raisin brand flakes.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Where am I going?
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I don't know our Instagram, I guess, and the raisins
are sugared, which I like squishmellows. Yeah, I think remember
that one. Oh god, yeah, someone wrote I can't wait
for Andrew do this in the scotty voice that one.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Say, look that's yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
What was the description? Nobody said it, Yeah, but someone
did say it.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
No they didn't.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Anyway, farm there fresh Dairyes, whole milk in the one
gallon jug. That's what we have this week. Well, why
couldn't you just do it?
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Because it wasn't a good one. Usually with yours, there's
like a backstory to it.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
Okay, have the most delicious time of my life over
at the diner an old beth Page.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
There's no diner and old bed Page never has been.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
The old beth Page diner.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
No.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Well, I used to get my shrimp pond.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
That was the Plainview diner. They closed. It's just still
sitting there. Someone needs to do something with it. Now
we go to the Embassy Diner and beth Page.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
What pisses me off about diners that close down is
that then all these like yuppie young people move in
and they're like, welcome to like egg, welcome to like bacon.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Yeah, this is biscuit.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Yeah we have a toast.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Yeah, it's it's just like a one word breakfast item.
They sterilize the diner and then up charge you like
forty two dollars for like farm eggs.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
You know, I like this. The flakes are different. They're
very different than your kelloggs. They're not as crunchy, but
they're interesting. There's not enough Raisins for me. They've only
got like one scoop here. I need two scoops. But
it's not bad. Uh. The flake tastes like hardboard, three
balls in a spoon for me because I am a
raisin brand fan. It's not the best.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
The flake is legit.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yet you like that? Was that a niepper?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
That was good? Oh?
Speaker 2 (20:54):
What do you got, Andy?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
I gotta give it two bowls too. If you put
a piece of cardboard into milk, it breaks apart. We've
had worse throw some I gonna call them grapes, but
the raisins, they were grapes.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
They were how long ago?
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I wonder how long ago these raisins were grapes? Would
you say, like two years, three years, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I don't know how the greape process works.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
I would like to investigate that.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
You should maybe on your hat, Nancy, Drew, you got
is there like an old mister Rogers episode where we
can go back and watch him go to a grape factory.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I'm sure there is raisin factory. I'm sure there is
sun made.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
If you find it, send it to me.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Hm. Anyway, Andrew, thank you for listening twenty one minutes right,

Speaker 2 (01:09):
That's cool. So anyway, Andrew, thank you, that's the easy vout.
Thank you, once again to our friends at General Mills,
and I'm gonna tell you why do you remember this?
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Hey? Kids, look much new. A brand new cereal just
for you. Twinkles, the new star shaped cereal in the
storybook package see inside Delicious Crispy Crinkly Stars and outside
our real story books all about Twinkles, the Magic Elephant, Friends,
(01:46):
Beat Twinkles Friends, Pulton the Inventor, Sandford, the package, Wilber
the Monkey, and more.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Read all of my.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
Story book package.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Because of the storybook package and Twinkles. That was from
nineteen sixty.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
But what is the You weren't even alive. I was not,
So how are you saying? Do you remember this?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
You know? So there was a remembering. It was a
black and white commercial from the sixties. It had a
few different commercials with Twinkles. Because there was a storybook
on every box. You would get a storybook with lots
of stories about Twinkles adventures like he fell into a
ditch one time he flew away with his little propeller tale.
But the thing is, in the commercials from the sixties,
one of them had Twinkles as a male and another
one had Twinkles as a female. So I don't know
(02:26):
which one was the final one, you know, same animation,
different voice. It was very interesting. You should you should
YouTube that.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yeah, let me just go research tw Twinkles.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
And there were sixty second commercials.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Oh wow, it's back in the day.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Back in the day they had sixties you know.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Yeah, that's that's a lot of advertising.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So anyway, Genlemen Mills brought back Twinkles, same retro packaging,
but it's this boy. I don't know if that's boy
Twinkles or girls girl Twinkles. I didn't check under the
hood day. This is day twinks under the trunk. I
didn't look on the day Twinkles. Yeah, so this is
look there from their back to the nineteen sixties. Yeah, okay,
(03:06):
you like that look. And there's the friends on the side.
Is Wilbur there twin about Sanford.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Wilburt is a monkey, Leopold is a lion.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
That sounds right, and Sandford is a parrot too, can
Sanford is a parrot?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Oh yeah that too.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
But there's no story books anymore. Yeah, those were two costly.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I mean, was it a full book?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
It was a book? Yeah, you appealed it off and
it would be a book.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah, they definitely cut that.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, so I would love for them to come back
with other retro stuff.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I mean it sounds like what you said was that
it's the back to the nineteen sixties.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yes, but I don't know if this is going to
be the only one. Oh you know, maybe they just
put that there.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Who was the one person that got like moved up
to CEO of General Mills and was like.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
I loved twinkle old logo and everything just said bring
it back.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Well, because nostalgia is all the rage right now. Everybody
loves nostalgia.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
But like to that point, it is like millennial nostalgia
coming back.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
No, no, no, By the way, do you know what that's.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Called from the nineteen sixties is my parents? Okay, so
they wanted twinkles.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
That's why. That's why it took so long, because they
wrote letters and mailed them.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Okay, you know, General is just sitting on a stockpile
of sixty four thousand letters, thing, bring twinkles.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Do you know what that's called? Underneath the back to
the sixties thing? There? Look, there's one right there too.
There's one right there also. Chirn No, that's a test pattern.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Test pattern.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
That's right after midnight. A lot of the night TV
stations would go off the air. Yeah, and that would
just be there until they came back on the air,
beep and just yeah, I do know that. Like Poulter
guys everything, you'd wake up in the middle of the
night and oh the test pattern would be on beeping, yeah,
you know, or the fuzz, not police, the fuzz like
you know, God, you never got to experience like fuzz
on the TV. I did you did?
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
How about the scrambled stuff when you try to watch
dirty things? No, no, you're too young for that. That
is so anyway, twinkle cereal is star shaped.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
But what is twinkles?
Speaker 2 (04:58):
It's an elephant.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
But look, but I'm not eating elephants.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So what am I sweetened corn?
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Well?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
I thought somewhere on here, I thought it said cake
batter or somewhere or vanilla or something that doesn't even
say it. It's just a star shaped cereal goodness and
sweet and toasted corn. I thought there was a flavor
of some sort on here. I'm so confused. Well, anyway,
let's see, Andrew.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
There's stars, you know, star cereal.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Smell it.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
That's cake?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You know what it smells like and I don't want
to say because it's a different company and all. Actually,
you know what isn't I think it is General Mills
now Cookie crisps General Mills now, isn't it? I believe
it is.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Yeah, No, I was thinking the same thing. Well, I was.
That was spilling everyone.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
That was a bad tear. It smells like cookie crisp.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Eh, I don't get that.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Of course you don't know. Anything's Farmland Fresh Dairyes, whole
milk and the one gallon jug. I got that at
the Indian Market down the road from my house. I
found that store that sells Farmland Fresh dairies much closer
than when I used to go to it. Yeah, so
I'm very happy. Here go, buddy. Okay, we've had a
star cereal before. Yeah, this definitely smells like cookie crisp.
(06:07):
It does hmmm, not wonderful, lightly sweetened.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yeah, Wilbur, he's looking right at me. I'm gonna cut
that out, make finger puppets. What the thing is?
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I could see you walking around like, Hey, it's.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Got a nice flavor. I like it. It's not as
sweet as I thought it would be. It was less
sweet in the sixties, you know, things were not as sweet,
just saying and black and white not sweet. You know,
it all went together when color came out, things got sweeter.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Oh really, yeah, you lived through that time, so you did.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
I did. It was all about it.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yeah, I'm sure your parents told you tales of yesterdayear
when we had twinkles and had less flavor.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
It was funny speaking of tales of yesteryear. I actually
got some of these books that I saw advertise on Facebook.
It's like, Mom, what's your story, Dad, what's your story?
Or something?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Oh. I tried to do that with my parents, and
let me tell you something. They got the first prompt
and we're like, what the hell is that? And then
never filled it out and I spent eighty bucks.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah no, they've been writing it. I'm so excited. Wow,
thanks to back out when they're dead.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
That's what I was hoping that I would have nice
stories about, like oh, this and that, And then they
got the first prompts and said, we're good.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
This almost taste a little bit like kettle corn. It's nice, man.
I like it. I'm gonna give it.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Between three and I give it four bowls or it's nice.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I was gonna do four as well. Yeah, four balls
for twinkles. Twinkle yay, hey twinkle Leopold, Oh, thank you
if you would move that over there please of course.
All right, So like the rest of this year is
pretty much called just like blowing out all the cereals
in the sack. Like there's really this is.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Part two, blowing out all the cereals in the sack.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Rest of the year is blowing out all the cereals
in the sack. Gotcha, I gotta get rid of all
this stuff, and we need to make room for new

for a minute, and it's time to blow it out,
you know, blow it out, yeah, baby. And much of

those big giant nails. They'll stop your head right in
the ground.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
So what would you call them?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Feet?
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Elephant feet are called what.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Oh, here's some more cinnamon cereal. Oh, and it's also
from Love Grown like we had in the last episode.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Elephant's feet are simply called feet. Feet.

I said that, I did after you call them? Pause? No,
I just said feet before you looked it up. Yeah, listen,
you don't listen. So anyway, this is power Puffs plus
from Love Grown Cinnamon Cereal. We should have done this
in the last episode when we had the Tiger Hearts.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Maybe when you're curating you could do a little better.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah, but I don't want you to have two crap
cereals back to back.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I mean, last episode was a lot. I threw up

Speaker 3 (11:10):
God again when it was the nineties for you, I
was between the ages of being birthed and nine, So

Some little girl stole Cooper sticker when we went backstage.
It was not cool. Yeah, we went backstage at Radio City.
We met them all, and some little girls like and
took Cooper sticker right off her shirt.

weird time here. I'm gonna give a take your spoon

down the street with two of them swinging my arms.
I'm sure you were. You were power walking back home.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Two things.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
I don't I don't like. We did go quany just

Speaker 2 (12:49):
It comes to beans, right, Why do they do that?
Speaker 1 (12:53):
It's the monk fruit.

Whatever it is is garbage.
Speaker 1 (12:55):

Speaker 2 (12:56):
Nope. Oh it tastes like burnt now.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Ugh, what was this peanut butter?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
No cinnamon? Oh? I'm giving a spoon because I didn't
spit it out, but I didn't buy it. What do
you want to do?
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'm gonna do the same.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
I don't want to swallow it. I really don't it
just like I'm eating a plant.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
It actually does right, Like this is what I would imagine,
like like a sugarcane.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
If I were to just like bite a sugar nose.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
That's probably sweet.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
No, I'm talking about like maybe the field is dead.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
When you were a little dead sugar cane when you
were little, did you ever just like slowly pull a
thick piece of grass out of the ground and chew
the white off the bottom? I used to do that.
We did that as kids. It was simpler times.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yeah, eating grass similar times. Yeah, did you grow up
on the Oregon Trail.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Like a camp or something? Even in my I would
sit in my backyard and you know, look up at
the sky and pull there. There was only certain pieces
that would pull up like that. If you'd pull, really
some pop.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Would come back from the water.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Whatever.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
If we'd bring back the water were so thisty.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
All the time, Candle, I guarantee you more than one
person that's listening right now knows what I'm talking about
and has done that. And you only eat the white
part off, But.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Only people in your age range.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Because once we became millennials, you guys weren't rock and
roll like us.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Because you guys like yeahs passed aside.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Yeah, well yeah, it's because they actually started putting pesticides
on the freaking grass.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Well, I mean they did that in the seventies, so
you know whatever DDT everything, Yeah, outlawed its how my
grandma's cat died actually, d DT.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Yeah, that's what he used to spray. Her cat used
to eat the grass. Coco Love, We loved Coco. He
was such a good cat. But when she moved that
she didn't realize that they treated the grass and Coco
would go outside to walk.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
That they didn't put this little yellow sign. Oh man,
I mean DDT was like back, it's in that song.
Put a paradise and paved the parking lot. That that one,
you know, d DT. That's when the airplanes used to
spray the powder on like the potato fields.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Is that the yellow yellow taxi cam? Yeah, Michelle Branch.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah, put up a parking lot. Yeah, DDT is an
that song. Unless I'm totally wrong, but I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I actually think I would like to look at it.
It's counting crows, Yes, look it up.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
It's big yellow taxi or something and it's Michelle Branch.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Yeah. They pave paradise and they put up a parking lot.
Be paradise, pull up a barcke or not. Man, his
hair was something. Yeah, yeah, those dreads.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I also watched a documentary about like the Dark Side
of Fame, a pretty messed up life.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
What's it called counting crows?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Not look that, I wasn't counting crows.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Or the taxi. It's taxi something yellow taxi?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Is it? Yeah? There it is. It was counting crows.
I'm sorry, you're right. Oh and it was Vanessa Carlton.
Oh my god, you said Michelle Branch, which I thought
was right you got. I don't know where the DDT part.
(15:52):
I think it's enjoy the version.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Taxi took him up till it's.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
I don't know, DDT isn't there somewhere. I could be
completely wrong, but I'm pretty sure he says it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
You, I mean what we look at the lyrics. Yeah,
we could have also done that.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
The skip CD version.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Of Big Yellow Taxi is Adam Durits. Was that his name?
Speaker 1 (16:23):
He had the crazy hair.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Yeah? They still tour, actually.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I mean I'm sure they do.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Anyway, While Andrews looking up the lyrics to Big Yellow Taxi,
we will be back right after this. Ah, the thing's
not pulled up.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Yes, Edward back, Hey, farmer, farmer, put away your d
d T.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
I don't care about spots on my apples.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Leave me the birds and.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
The bees please.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah, Yeah, what is d DT what? What? What pesticide
was that? Hey, Siri, you really love what is d
d T. Here's some info about TDT. She won't save
it solid. Yeah, well yeah, it's it's outlawed now. Yeah,
(17:15):
so that's what we had to deal with you. You guys,
you have no idea.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
He never knew.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
He used to drink from the hoses too, that's right,
when I don't drink from They had potato fields about
the house. Yeah, they outlawed all those pesticides, and the
potato bugs came and there was a blight or famine
or something.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
And all we never had potatoes.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And all that long island was a huge potato farms everywhere.
There's very few farms left. It's very it's sad.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
We were struck into a potato famine.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Like, let me save the faults, right, the rot camps.
They had the big potato farm behind our house. Yeah,
we used to go back to your free potatoes.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Father.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Can I have a potato? It's been but a forty night.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
All right, let's move on because this is Serial Killers
the podcast where we eat cereal. Thank you once to get.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
The big yellow taxi.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Thank you Matt again. Best Yet is the supermarket chain
that is in some areas, mostly in the Northeast, but
it could be elsewhere. Raisin bran wheat and brand cereal
Andrew raisin brand is always good generally, you know. I mean,
you can't go wrong with raisin bran.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yep, no, you can't.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
I mean, have we had a bad raisin brand now?
And raisin brand is one of those cereals that can't
be trademarked. So every brand can have a raisin bran.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yeah, that was a good like announcer voice to say it.
Every brand can have a raisin brand, yes.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Because you can't. You can't really trademark something that just
is it is. Yeah. Sure. By the way, there are
lots of people that have been asking for you to
do my my, you're me. There was some post that
were like, oh my god, can't wait till Andrew does that.
I don't remember what it was. It might have been Serial.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Killers, which wine.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
I posted something with it. I think it was the
one that I just posted that we're going to do
in the next episode. Let me check so best yet? Oh,
since eighteen ninety three, the flakes are a little flatter
than your typical raisin brand flakes.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Where am I going?
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I don't know our Instagram, I guess, and the raisins
are sugared, which I like squishmellows. Yeah, I think remember
that one. Oh god, yeah, someone wrote I can't wait
for Andrew do this in the scotty voice that one.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Say, look that's yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
What was the description? Nobody said it, Yeah, but someone
did say it.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
No they didn't.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Anyway, farm there fresh Dairyes, whole milk in the one
gallon jug. That's what we have this week. Well, why
couldn't you just do it?
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Because it wasn't a good one. Usually with yours, there's
like a backstory to it.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
Okay, have the most delicious time of my life over
at the diner an old beth Page.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
There's no diner and old bed Page never has been.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
The old beth Page diner.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
No.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Well, I used to get my shrimp pond.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
That was the Plainview diner. They closed. It's just still
sitting there. Someone needs to do something with it. Now
we go to the Embassy Diner and beth Page.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
What pisses me off about diners that close down is
that then all these like yuppie young people move in
and they're like, welcome to like egg, welcome to like bacon.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Yeah, this is biscuit.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Yeah we have a toast.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Yeah, it's it's just like a one word breakfast item.
They sterilize the diner and then up charge you like
forty two dollars for like farm eggs.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
You know, I like this. The flakes are different. They're
very different than your kelloggs. They're not as crunchy, but
they're interesting. There's not enough Raisins for me. They've only
got like one scoop here. I need two scoops. But
it's not bad. Uh. The flake tastes like hardboard, three
balls in a spoon for me because I am a
raisin brand fan. It's not the best.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
The flake is legit.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yet you like that? Was that a niepper?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
That was good? Oh?
Speaker 2 (20:54):
What do you got, Andy?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
I gotta give it two bowls too. If you put
a piece of cardboard into milk, it breaks apart. We've
had worse throw some I gonna call them grapes, but
the raisins, they were grapes.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
They were how long ago?
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I wonder how long ago these raisins were grapes? Would
you say, like two years, three years, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I don't know how the greape process works.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
I would like to investigate that.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
You should maybe on your hat, Nancy, Drew, you got
is there like an old mister Rogers episode where we
can go back and watch him go to a grape factory.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I'm sure there is raisin factory. I'm sure there is
sun made.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
If you find it, send it to me.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Hm. Anyway, Andrew, thank you for listening twenty one minutes right,

Speaker 2 (22:38):
It's like, I don't know. And then you would take
it out and your T shirt and you would rub
the bottom carefully, hopefully get that scratch.
