Speaker 1 (00:00):
Remember a few years ago when Jose said he bought
a squatty potty and it totally changed his entire life.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
I don't remember. It's like it's a lot of discussions.
They really had an impact on They have their fan
base for sure.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I work.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
I just thought about that.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. So that was
actually a product from the TV show Shark Tank. It
got pitched on the show and received a three hundred
and fifty thousand dollars investment.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
There ain't so much money on that day.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Now, thanks to Jose, squatty potties makeover thirty million dollars
every year. Wow, seriously, it's awesome. But not every strange
item on that show turned out to be a gold mine. Actually,
some of the product pitches were so weird they got
totally rejected by all of the sharks. The question is,
would you be able to identify what products are considered
(00:55):
shark worthy? Let's find out, because I got a list
of strange inventions that were actually pitched on the show
Shark Tank.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Like a little game shows.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
So let's see if you guys know. Let's start with
the product licky brush, a cat brush shaped like a
giant tongue that you hold in your mouth and lick
your cat with to bond like a fellow feline. Because
licking with your actual tongue that's gross.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Yeah, well, because you tried that first before you came
up with disinvention.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Obviously, But if you have a tomb shape like a tongue,
then it's okay. What do you think? Did that get
invested or rejected by got invested in because I love it?
Speaker 4 (01:36):
I think they invested.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I don't think all the sharkan sharks are cat people.
I think they rejected.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Wicky brush was rejected by all the sharks. They thought
it was weird. Next product, it's called original Man Candle.
Candles made four men with masculine sense like popcorn and farts,
actually parts hearts, farts with an s sense that men appreciate.
(02:07):
Did that get invested or rejected by the sharks?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I have something called the man candle. It doesn't smell
like farts, but I.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Don't that's the metro man cale.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
I don't know if they invested in the mandle. I'm
gonna say rejected.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
It makes so many candles that are like smells like
farts and it's like not you know, or smells like
some slls like I'm gonna say, I don't care. I
think rejected. I think that's too great.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
It's rejected, rejected by all the sharks. Next dynam is
called Booby Pack, a sports bra with built in waterproof
pockets so your stuff doesn't get wet while you work
out the Fannie pack for your rack. That is, did
that get invested in or rejected by the who.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Has broken so many iPods from sweat and my sports bra?
I hope invested in?
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Oh I thought you were stuffing?
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Yeah, too weird shirt.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
I can tell you Booby pack got invested in. Yeah,
one of the Sharks, Barbara Corkoran, invested eighty grand into that.
We're talking about the weirdest real products that were actually
pitched on the TV show Shark Tank quizzing my co host.
But if they got invested or rejected. Next product is
called euro Club. You are o Club. It's a golf
(03:26):
club with a secret urinal compartment so men could have
discreek bladder relief while they're out on the golf course.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Just so smart? Is it really actually smart? Why don't
you just pee on a tree?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I think yes, because they're all like Kevin O'Leary's like, oh,
I could use this on the golf course.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
I'm going with too gross again, rejected, rejecta may you
forgot it in your golf bag?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Ladies say it's rejected. The euro Club was invested in,
mister wonderful invested twenty five thousand dollars into it.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Wow, some of the cat tongue isn't as grossy.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Next Shark Tank item is called the No Phone, a
plastic fake phone that looks like an iPhone but does
absolutely nothing to help people break their extreme phone addictions.
Did that get invested in or rejected?
Speaker 4 (04:25):
I don't know. Like I smoked a long time ago.
When I quit, I did need something to like put
up to my mouth still, so I feel like this
would make sense to me.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I'm gonna say invested, invested.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Maybe because the little kids using it to think they
have a phone.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
I don't know. Well, the no Phone that rejected by
the Sharks, they didn't see any merit in that. We
would have all bought it to keep it going. With
their next item called I don't want to mispronounce this
kiss ticks kissed tick, kiss ticks complimentary flavored lip bombs
(04:58):
that create a tingling and unique taste when two people
kiss them together. Did that get invested in or rejected?
Speaker 4 (05:08):
You remember?
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Did you watch this episode?
Speaker 3 (05:10):
I feel like a chapstick trying to do.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
This too, like a long time.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
This sounds fun to me.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
I'm gonna say invested.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
I just put on the lip pumpers. It would do
the same effect.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Rejected, Just numb kiss sticks that got invested in. Mark
Cuban invested two hundred thousand dollars to watch a bunch
of ladies kiss each other.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Or he's in the Dallas Mavericks' locker room and all
the guys can have free access.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
You should try the blueberry chapstick mixed with a banana.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
A couple more here this time is called waken Bacon,
a working alarm clock that cooks actual bacon to wake
you up to the smell of bacon. Invested or rejected?
Speaker 3 (05:50):
I remember this and I loved the idea, but something
about it was like scary to me, being like something
hot oil while I'm asleep. It's too dangerous. I don't
know if they.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Invest Here's the thing you're reaching over and slamming snooze
on your alarm clock and spill hot oil everywhere, smell.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
You don't believe in the waking bacon, don't shot, and
your final product is called I Want to Draw a
Cat for you. It's a service that offers custom stick
figure drawings of your cat. If you submit a photo
of the cat, they'll draw stick figure of it. Did
that get invested in or rejected?
Speaker 2 (06:30):
There's not cat people rejected. I've spent too much time
on Etsy. I know this was invested.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
I don't know, but it just sounds like it sounds
like an Etsy shop for sure.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
It was investing. Mark Cuban again twenty five thousand dollars
for stick figure cats, stick figure cats, and flavored.
