earlier this year, this might be one of the best
(00:34):
marketing ideas I've seen in a long long time. And
that is Sydney's Bathwater Bliss by Doctor Squatch. It's a
men's soap brand, and what they did is shot a
commercial with Sydney's Sweeney. And if you don't know who
she is, guys, go ahead and look her up. You're aikeelike.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Uh yeah, make sure it's safe for work. Yeah, even
though it's appropriate, it it feels.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
It feels dirty. Yeah, just looking at her.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Yeah, they took the water from the bath that she
was taking in the commercial for Doctor Squatch and now
are selling bars of soap with a drop of that
bath water in it for eight bucks.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
A bar genius.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Yeah, gross, it is gross.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
I mean it's I mean it's but it's genius marketing.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
It's a male targeted bar of soap.
Speaker 5 (01:26):
Right, But think about what some dudes are willing to
pay for that's not just a drop of dirty bathwater
in it, you know what I mean, like guys by
nasty things.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
So this bar of soap.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
Used underwear, sandy gross stuff likely used.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Yeah, gently used. It was an old lady. She only
wore it on the weekends.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Pictures of gross like.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
A gently used car.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Yeah, imagine if they described selling women's underpants like they do.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I used car, that'd be pretty funny. Low mileage, by
the way.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Owned by a little old lady detective coating You.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
A hundred lucky winners will be chosen to own their
own brick made with Sydney Sweeney's very own bathwater.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
It's a giveaway that they're doing. I might as well
enter God.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
You can also buy it for eight bucks.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
It's like a limited time that you can go online
and buy them for eight bucks. It might be while
supplies last kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
But well, if you have been listening to the show
for a while once. I think it was when she
hosted SNL that Sandy you discovered her, yes, yep, you know,
or she came on your radar, yeah, and it's I
think that was similar for me. I didn't know who
she was prior to that. I hadn't seen what she's in.
I don't even know what she does for a living.
I guess she's an actress. I don't know she is.
But even when I was watching that SNL, I was
(02:56):
like a little uncomfortable. It's kind of getting that same
feeling I got as a boy watching Charlie's Angels.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
She made fe.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I immediately found her on Instagram and editor into my
God's Little Miracles category your category, yeah, you know, and
Instagram you can like when you save a reel, you
can save it and then you can create your own category.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Say it. I don't know you're into accounting reels whatever.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You can set up an accounting one and with all
your accounting with your Excel tricks and stuff. But I
have one set up that's called God's Little Miracles.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Oh No, which is funny and actually this came up
the other night at the hockey game, Tricia, Yeah, and
he's like, oh yeah, I've got a whole category.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
And I'm like, what do you mean? And I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I knew you could save stuff on Instagram, I didn't
know you could categorize him.
Speaker 6 (03:57):
Oh yeah, he's got a whole older Why know God's
Little Miracles, which is hysterical that like you're his wife
and he's so open about his He sends them.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
To me periodically.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
I'll get a text and thinking it's just a hey,
we got this to do, and I'll open it up
and it's a God's Little Miracle text.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Did he show any of them to you?
Speaker 6 (04:21):
What?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Why does he share? Why do you share them with her?
Speaker 5 (04:23):
He's trying to get the launch, the launch sequence activating,
do you know what I mean? He's stern the waters,
humming the water, seeing if there's any interest.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Did you Did he show any of them to you?
Speaker 1 (04:36):
JB. No, he just showed me. I just was curious
how he did the categories. I didn't look at any
of them, But.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Did you ask to see any of them?
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well? Okay, well one, I I know what's in there,
I know what's on Instagram.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
I mean, I know that a bunch.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Of a bunch of chicks old and young, with millions
of followers because they show a lot of skin.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
That's what that whole platform has become. I know what's on.
I've seen them.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I just don't like.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Really, that blows my mind because if say I have
my own little God's Little Miracles category, If my girls
and I are sitting around and I say I have this,
explain to him what it is, there is no possibility
that I am getting up and leaving without them saying,
let me see what you have right now. Like the
curiosity as to what I've pinned and to what it is,
(05:26):
there's no curious.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Well two things.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I wasn't curious about it at all because I've probably
seen it all. The second part is we are on
the second row at a hockey game, right surrounded by families, and.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Then you get small children behind.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Men together flipping through twenty year old's photos.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Probe. I got it, I got it.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I'm not good.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
I just showed in the category real quick and then
closed my phone so.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Hey, nice tip that you can do and saved Instagram categories.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
I need to go in and sort some stuff. That's
pretty handy.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
You can go back to go back, end up saving
a whole bunch and then never going back and looking
at them.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
You know what I mean, right, exactly right.
Speaker 5 (06:07):
You have the hidden locked folder on your iPhone too, right? Oh, yes,
your dirty pictures in there and lock it up.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
By the way, I did a quick search on Instagram
to see maybe if at God's Little Miracles was available
for a handle, maybe I could just start a new
page and just put all God's Little Miracles on there. Unfortunately,
it has already been taken and it's there. It's someone
has it, and it's their bio description says God's.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Little Miracle is on the flowers and stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
On the mission to share stories of miracles from above.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
That's a whole different.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
Category.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
I see it through a different lens, very very very
different lens.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
So anyway, uh, Sydney Sweeney, send them, send them some
of the is your suggestions. Here's one I found one.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
I found one and iteath that I just start tagging
them on all this stuff. Another one, this is the
JB and Sandy Show on Austin's eighty station one oh
three point one, streaming on the iHeartRadio app. We're taking
the week off, so we hope you'll enjoyed this from
(07:26):
earlier this year. What is in your algorithm right now?
It is unrelenting. Once they find out you have even
the smallest tiniest interest in something. Once they find that out,
you just get bombarded with ads to the point that
it's just almost too much.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
But it kind of works too, it does. It beats
you down right, it does work.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
But then once you make the purchases, it takes a
while for it to get out of your algorithm, right,
and you're like, I already bought it.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yeah, you just want to go leave me alone.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
You're yelling at your phone before you, guys, say what's
clogging up your your feed and your algorithm?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Can I just tell you this?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
What's the deal with When you see something that you
like and it says you know, shop now or more important,
you tap the link. It takes you to whatever the
product is. The first thing I want to know is
how much is it? And you scroll down and down
and down and down through nine different things that this
(08:30):
thing's great for and then sometimes you don't even get
the price there.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
Yeah, well that's a flim flam when they don't tell
you the price, it.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Starts to make you think it's a shady product exactly.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
And then and then sometimes if you do start buying it,
then they try to sell you something else before you
close out.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Four times yes, and then they also imagine if online
shopping in the real world, right, like, you go, you click,
and let's say you going and looking at the stuff
is the same as walking into a retail store. When
you walk in, the person that would walk but you
would see first when you walk in would go, hey,
what's your email?
Speaker 4 (09:09):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
That's that's the first thing they say, what's your email?
What's your email? You want? You want fifteen percent off?
What's your email?
Speaker 3 (09:20):
And then you go no, oh, no, oh you don't
want to save. Okay, what's your text number? What's your
text number? That's what it would be like. I feel
like I'm being assaulted.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
And then as you go out the front door, they
follow you and go, hey, you left something behind.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I know you were interested. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
They called me. They called me two days later. They
called me two days later and they're like, hey, your
cart's still full. Do you still want this? Oh my god,
it's like the world's most aggressive.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
It's not merch chose me insane.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
But when I have to scroll so much, Jbi, great point,
it's shady, like this sauna blanket that I'm looking at.
Uh huh, something shady about you. I don't want to
buy that song if you had just said the sound
of blanket's one hundred and nineteen dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Okay, I just.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Did one the other day and I was scrolling down
and I said, click here to order, scroll down, click
here to or scroll down, click here do It just
kept giving me more and more information.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
It was too many, too much. I don't want to
know what's everything in the engine. When I buy a car,
I just want it works. Yeah, you know, so what's
in your feed right now, Trisa, let's start with you.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
So I ordered a lip stained It's not a lipstick,
it's not a lip gloss. You put it on and
it stains your lips and then you wipe it off
and the color stays on your lips all day. I
ordered one, and now every person on the planet Earth
who makes a lipstain wants me to buy theirs as well.
And I'm like, I'm not even sure if I like
the one I got yet, so nothing but lipstain.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
That's it. Yes, that's so funny.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
You mentioned that because I accidentally bought that. I had
like chapped lips up in the mountains, and I didn't
know it was a stain. I looked like Robert Smith.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
That color does not come off right. You put it on,
you wipe it off, and that's your color for the
whole day.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Like it works. And apparently I clicked on it.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Was interested in a sleeveless shirt at free people, And
now my add pages are full of sleeveless shirt ats,
like a million of them.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
So those are the two that I'm in right now.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Tricia, you want to show off the guns? Is that
what you're doing?
Speaker 5 (11:29):
No, it's just was a cute shirt, okay, But I
mean if they get a little bit bigger, I might
show them off.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I will judge a woman that should not be wearing
a sleepless shirt.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
Those are women though, who have gotten to an age
where they're like they're part of that we do not
care club, and they're like, we don't care if our
arms should not be showed. We're hot and sweaty and
we're wearing sleepless shirts. That's what's happening with them.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
I don't want to see your bingo wings, you know
doo wings are It's like now, remember your grandma had
that stuff underneath her arm and fab and they got
bingo when they raised their arms up and they shake
their hands and their bingo wings are flopping down.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
That's what's in.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Your algo jb oh. Mine is overrun. So uh. We
just rented a house for my daughter in Rosedale.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
We haven't moved her in yet because we're cleaning it
up because landlords don't have to do squat now. So
it was covered. There were three college students living in
there before. It's been overrun with leaves and just soggy.
You know, when they get all they start to compose,
and it is just overrun with mosquitoes, over run. And
(12:49):
I am a target, like so we have completely zero
scaped our backyard. And so I was looking for all
kinds of ways to combat mosquitoes. Right, so far, I've
purchased four different things.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Oh wow, wow, I know.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
And then it's just it's everything showing up, everything showing up.
There's so I uh. I started with just like your
classic industrial strength the deep spray that you put on
the end of the hose, but you don't want to
use that all the time. That's a little toxic. And
then I bought this thing. It's called Thermicell. It's a
(13:30):
little USB battery thing and you drop this little cartridge
in it. It heats it up and that's supposed to
repel anything from coming near you.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
I got that. I got the electric bug zapper glow light.
Those are still around. Yeah, yeah, are so fun.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
It is so from childhood.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
And then I and then I mean it's it's obviously working,
you know.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
And then I bought this other thing.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
I haven't even taken an out of the box yet,
but but you know how the commercial mosquito places will
come in and fog your yard.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah, I was paying.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
I was paying for one of those services. I was like,
how much to get one of these machines and then
the fluid to go in it. So I have that
in my car that I haven't even unboxed yet, so
I can just and it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
It's more of a natural chemical thing.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
So once I get it under control, then I'm gonna
go out there and hit it with that thing every
now and then I was paying a lot to have
that done professionally, like once a month, well except for
the winter months, you know, a few months off.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
But like, there's got to be surely I can do
this on my own.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
I need the good old days where the truck came
by and put the fog out and all the kids
ran behind the deep truck.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Do you remember that? Okay?
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Who knows that we were breathing out? Oh and there's
another one I bought. It's actually a product that that
was out of Austin.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
It's called god I can't think of the name.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Of it, but it's these little canisters and you you
put the powder in it, add water and the mosquitos go
in there.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
I have four hanging in my back. They have those
for flies too.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
They go inside it.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Yeah, yeah, it's like tom something.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
No, this is a JB's house.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
We had a funny conversation watching We have one of
those in the on our back patio, the fly ones,
and Tricia and I were sitting there and they're like,
well they're at the top.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, we're speaking for the flies. And it's like, I
don't know, it's been in there a while and he
hadn't come out.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
Flies on the outside looking at all the flies.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
On the inside, like this is sketchy.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
You're having fun, but this isn't. This is an Austin company.
It's called Tougher than Tom tnt to. And I will
tell you this. The little canister when you go to
swap it out, like.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
It is the most vile smell I think I've ever smelled.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
It's stinky for the flies too, that's what Yeah, that's
what attracts them.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Oh it is a gross I mean, you don't smell
it like I've got a couple by my patio.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
You don't smell it hanging there.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
But when you get close to it, oh, yeah, it
feels like a dead animal.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Were you getting eaten that?
Speaker 3 (16:17):
When you're trying to get rid of all these mosquitos?
Where you getting eaten up by them? Too?
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I was, I was getting devoured and trying to get
it under control. And then man, by Sunday it was Saturday.
I was doing a bunch of that. Sunday I was like, man,
I feel sick, and this is not a normal kind of.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Sick, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (16:36):
They got I've been on this planet for a minute,
so I know the different kinds of sick, and I
was just like, I just felt off, and then I
was like, it's got to be all these mosquitoes biting me.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Yeah, they carry a lot of stuff. I mean, you
know they're in some parts of the world that you
can get malaria.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
I think from a mesquite right, what.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
Is the one not malaria, but the one that people
like has been reported in Austin a few times people
freak out snile snile.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
I think I had a mild West Nile kind of
thing going. Maybe it was rocking mountain, spotted fever. Who
knows that.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Man, I did not feel good, and that's I attributed
it to that.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
But anyhow, back to your point. Now, when I if.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I scroll through Instagram, I feel like every fifth post
is something mosquito.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Really like this guy hates mosquitoes.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
They need a way to that.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
You can just tell the algorithm like, Okay, I'm done,
I've purchased all I am going to get in this category.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Leave me alone.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
That's what makes me wondering, since there is that like
I'm not interested in this button, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
And then I don't know if that gets rid of
it or not. Yeah, if you Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
If you start to hide those, you can clear it's
a little tedious, but you can't on them. Yeah, like this,
and I think it gives you options. I'm no longer interested.
I've already purchased this stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
I've only seen that. I'm not interested option.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
When they're first introducing a new product into your feed,
whether if you click I'm not interested in this, they're like, all.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Right, you guys, you don't like that. To let's get
something else in there.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
You have to tap the little I think it's called
it e lips, the little three dots. Yeah, and then
hit not interested in your options?
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Are?
Speaker 3 (18:14):
It's irrelevant? I see similar ads too often. It's inappropriate.
I already bought this. I've seen this ad too many times.
Already bought this.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Be done.
