The Queens are getting their protein on... or are they? Chelsey brings in a TikTok review that single-handedly changed her purchase decision on a trending box of Prime Bites Protein Brownies. But it’s not just any review—it’s a dramatic, windy, zero-out-of-ten takedown by the now-iconic Mrs_Tink, complete with gagging, PR shoutouts, and beet juice comparisons. 💨🍫
Before that, Trey lodges a fiery complaint against greeters who don’t greet—especially at the gym. Then it’s time for the showdown: Are these viral protein-packed desserts actually a health food dream come true, or are influencers lying to us all?
PLUS: The Queens go full-blown cinematic with a double Review Queen coronation, cookies get crowned, and a 2 Star rodeo toy review looms on the After Show horizon.

(00:02):
Everybody's got an opinion.
Every Californian, Virginian inVirginia, it's so hard to tell
who to cho and who to ignore.
Someone's gotta settle The Score.
Trey and Chelsey will helpyou choose who's win, which.
(00:31):
Hello.
Well, hello and welcometo Review That Review.
We are the podcast that isdedicated to reviewing reviews.
That is Chelsey Donn,
and that is Trey Gerrald.
But together
we are the Review Queen.
(00:55):
Here at Review.
That Review, we believe in balance,the good, the bad, and the kvetchy.
So it's only fair that wetake a moment to fetch it out.
Trey, would you like to
Lodge A
Complaint?
I'm already mad.
I'm already mad.
You
already know.
The exhale starts
(01:16):
because I noted this on okay.
Three days ago, and I was like, oh.
My God, this is a zero to 1000 for me.
Mm. Okay.
I don't know how in the 205 episodes,this has not been lodged yet.
Okay.
I'm gonna try to not, um, be concernedwith how I'm gonna be received with this.
(01:40):
Mm, got it.
Okay.
I moonlight in customer service,so I feel like I have a right
to, to complain about this today.
I need to Lodge A Complaint against.
Not doing your job title.
Okay.
I'm getting get more specific.
Hold on.
My prime example iswhen I walk into my gym,
(02:04):
there
are people whose jobdescription is greeter.
You know what?
They don't ever do greet you.
Wait.
I'm like, I am.
I'm not playing this up.
I am so angry.
I need to chill out.
Okay.
Okay.
It makes me so angry becausetoday in our electronic world,
(02:29):
they're not signing you in.
Mm. They're not lookingat the computer monitor.
It's not even like a key chain anymore.
It's an app.
It just, I scan myself.
Sometimes they're typing on thecomputer, so I don't even, I
think the whole scanning is like.
A conspiracy anyway.
I don't think anyone's being,
(02:51):
when you are hired to work a front desk togreet people and you never say hello, what
are you doing with your life, your job?
I'm, I'm sorry.
I need to chill.
I'm, it makes me so angry becauseI'm not gonna say hi first.
I'm not doing your job for you.
I'm employed and I dothings that I don't like.
(03:14):
I make money from things Ididn't dream of as an 8-year-old.
So I can have sympathy for you that youprobably did not dream as an 8-year-old
of working at the front desk at a gym,working as a concierge at a hotel,
working as a greeter at a restaurant.
Maybe that wasn't your dream, right?
But your job is.
(03:35):
Screening.
Why do you not say hello?
I'm not doing your job for you.
I'm not saying hello first.
The, if I were to make a tabulation ofthe amount of times I've said hello, when
I enter the gym that I've been going tofor four and a half years, I've probably
said hello 20 times in the four years thatI've gone because they don't say hello.
(03:58):
They are talking to themselves.
They're on their phone.
They're.
Hibbing over here with like theone Broy guy that is there every
day and they're friends with.
I recognize I am not awarm person at the gym.
I have a lot of trauma from beingraised gay in the south, so I am
not trying to engage with anyonewho presents as straight male.
(04:21):
Um, so I keep my head down.
I recognize I may not be puttingoff an energy of wanting to be
said hello to, but it's your job.
Your job is to say hello.
And my response is supposed to be, hi.
And then that's it.
That's all I Why are you agreeter and you don't greet?
That's my complaint.
It's your job description.
(04:42):
I'm not saying hi first.
It's your job.
You shouldn't be on yourphone if you're being paid.
Period.
That's its own.
Yes.
Sorry you guys.
I don't know why I'm so angry.
It makes me so angry.
I, I get it.
'cause it's like, what are youhired to like observe me walking
(05:04):
in the door and not say hello?
Like, why are you even there either?
Either we're gonna do this as arobot thing and I'm just gonna scan
myself in and there's not gonna beanybody looking at me in this moment.
Or if you're there looking at mein this moment, at least do your
job and say hello and make thisa pleasant experience otherwise.
(05:25):
Go like Kibbitz in the back withyour coworker, because I don't
need to be here looking at this.
I have a mission.
I have something to do.
Either help me stay on trackwith that mission or GTFO
and I will.
'cause I did inquire specifically,I'm like envisioning, but this
happens in other examples.
Yeah.
But I am envisioning my gem.
(05:47):
These people are paid a salary.
Like it's not like they're working thefront desk to get a free membership.
Get a free
membership.
It is actually, but even if
they were, that's still like a barter.
Correct.
That's still what
you're signing up for.
But that's not the situation.
They're being paid to greet.
So,
and they don't have other jobs.
Like, not that I'm, it's maybethey, like if, if they're.
(06:07):
You know, signing up otherpeople at the desk and they
have like a ton of things to do.
No, they're
not even the membership people.
Okay.
There are explicit membership people,
like their job, job is frontdesk reception, reading.
Yes.
Yeah.
Get it together.
My dad obviously might, it's a dentist.
He has like receptionists.
(06:28):
If they didn't say something to thepatients when they like walked into
the door like, Hey, so good to see you.
Okay, because what'sreally underneath this?
How old are your dad's receptionists?
Well, my dad's receptionistshave been with him.
That's the end of theconversation for so many years.
(06:49):
Okay.
So they're older.
That's the point.
I mean, even some younger ones,but he always complains about them.
But I think this culture,
yeah,
look, I'm not trying to havethis Gen Z conversation.
Sure.
But I'm just saying whenyou have grown up like this.
Right.
Right, right.
You don't know how youdon't engage with people.
That's
right.
And I think you're right.
(07:10):
I think that makes me very sad.
Yeah, that is sad.
And I'm someone, full disclosure,it's not just the gym.
Don't talk to me.
I don't want to talk to people.
I am a loner.
I'm an introvert.
I, well, that's
what I'm saying.
I think it's like the either orfor you, like you'd be totally
fine if there was nobody there.
Yes.
But the fact that there is somebodythere, it's like, well, at least
(07:32):
do what you're supposed to do.
If I need to interact with you insome, if I need to pick up on your
energy, at least give me something.
And I recognize it's a little, like justsay hello, but I am sticking on this hill.
I'm not gonna do your job for you.
You have to say hello to me first.
That's what you'rebeing paid to do, right?
Sure.
(07:52):
I'm not being paid to say hi.
You are.
I'm paying to say hi.
How does that work?
And
I pay a lot of money.
Yeah.
I shouldn't be paying to say hi.
Okay,
I get it.
I hear you.
Thank,
thank you for being with me with that.
It really bothers me.
I understand.
I think anytime anyone is, seems tobe there for a specific purpose that
they're, that they're not fulfilling.
(08:13):
It's extremely frustrating.
A long time ago I complainedabout those people that stand
next to the parking things.
While I'm like trying to get my creditcard in, there's literally someone
that's standing in like a booth whoseonly job it is to help me put my credit
card in if my arm is too short andcan't reach, and sometimes they just
stand there and watch me struggle.
(08:35):
Yes.
Frustrating.
You know, that's
your, that's your job.
So I hear you.
Add it to the ledger Trey.
Thank you.
I mean, just say hi.
Just do it.
If your job description is, ifyour title is greeter, is greeter.
And you're not greeting.
What you doing babe?
What
are you doing?
What are you doing?
Good.
(08:55):
Good complaint.
All right.
Well, should we jumpinto an online review,
Chelsey?
Should we crystal it out?
I mean, I feel like let's clear the energyfor somebody else to take the floor.
Should we?
Well, I don't have a crystal atthe moment, but I do have this.
Oh, beautiful ring.
Ooh, that.
That counts.
Alright, well should we jump in
before we do?
(09:17):
This is my favorite part of the show.
Yes.
Please just take a quick moment.

Put in the comments,
Review That.
Review
as your trustee.
Review Queens, we bring in internetreviews that we feel need to be inspected.
(09:58):
We read you a review.
We break it down, and then we ratethe impact of that review on a
scale from zero to five crowns.
It's a very regal process that wecall Assess That Kvetch and Chelsey.
It's a Chelsey episode.
What have you got for us?
All right, so full disclosure, I'vebeen trying to get like more protein in.
(10:20):
This is my favorite protein shake.
It's core power.
Um, and I really enjoy it.
I'm, I'm doing my best.
I can't get enough protein in withjust eating, so I'm trying to do
the protein shakes, and I'm alwayson the hunt for a new product.
Maybe I want a little dessert orsomething that also has protein,
(10:40):
like I love a dual function item.
And so I've been looking and Icame across a lot these brownies
that are protein brownies, okay?
And they're kind of likeall over the internet.
As soon as you start Googling that, youlike proteins, you start seeing this,
this company called Prime Bites, okay?
(11:05):
And they make protein brownies.
And they have 19 grams of protein, whichis like for a brownie, pretty excellent.
And they also have five grams ofcollagen and literally all over YouTube,
shorts, TikTok, Instagram, there'sall these people of all ages being
(11:30):
like, oh my God, this is delicious.
So I was like, maybeI'm gonna order these.
But then I came across one reviewthat had a different opinion, and
it was enough of a different opinionto make me decide not to order.
So I think it's worth bringing in today.
This is a TikTok reviewthat was written by Mrs.
(11:58):
Which I think is not to beconfused with Mr. Stink.
So it's definitely Misses Tank,and this is a one out of 10.
Review, so not very good.
This is to every influencer that said,these brownies were the best thing ever.
You owe me $50.
(12:19):
I have seen these hyped up onTikTok for so freaking long.
I finally caved in and bought them.
I paid like $43 for thisbox of like 12 brownies.
This was the one I was hypedup for, was the birthday cake.
I wanted to try it with my coworker.
We were both so excited to finallytry it, broke it in half, took a bite,
immediately spit it in the trash can.
(12:42):
Disgusting, absolutely disgusting.
Telling my husband about it, he waslike, no, you're being dramatic.
Came home again.
We tried this cookie dough.
You ever have stinky, stinky trash andit just smells when you go in the house.
Take one of these brownies, set itin there for about five minutes.
That's what they taste like.
They literally taste like stinky trash.
(13:03):
I don't know who's in charge of themarketing and the PR for this company,
but you're doing a fantastic job.
'cause you played me probablythousands of other people as well.
I don't know how much money y'allare paying these influencers,
but you ain't paying me nothing.
Did I expect like a sweetbrownie out of the oven?
No.
I mean I've lost like a hundredpounds over the last like a year.
Okay.
I know a little bit about protein.
(13:24):
I'm gagging, just ugh.
They're not good.
Do not waste your money on this stickto like protein powder or something.
These are not it, dude.
I'm telling you.
They're absolutely horrendous.
If you're local to me and youwanna try one, meet me at Bucky's.
We'll have a taste test.
I have not swallowed any of this.
Like I took two bites oftwo different flavors.
Spit it out.
I tried y'all.
I really, really tried.
(13:45):
I mean, I drink like beetjuice in the morning.
Like I can handle it.
This is not it.
Absolutely zero out of 10 from me.
All right.
That was actually a zero outta 10 review.
I misspoke.
I said one out of 10.
It's actually zero out of 10 for Mrs.
Tank for these brownies.
So what do you think, Ry?
Well, that's the valuable part ofit being a TikTok review, because
you can say zero, whereas youcan't say that on Amazon or Google.
(14:09):
Uh, all right.
Well, I, first of all, I, first of all,the TW Mrs. Is clearly part of my kinfolk.
I. I, I'm not gonna venture tosay it might be South Carolina, it
might be Louisiana, I'm not sure,but it's definitely my, my kinfolk.
I first of all want to acknowledge here.
Um, Mrs. Tink says that theyspent $50 and then like a few
(14:33):
minutes later they say it was $43.
It.
Do you think the $7 differenceis like an interest charge?
I mean, I think it might be like shipping.
Maybe we're just like roundingup because we just, we think we
deserve like a $7 trauma fee.
I don't know, but I feel like 43 50, I didnotice it, but it didn't super bother me.
(14:56):
Also.
Yes.
Go for it.
Well, question.
Okay.
Yeah.
So Mrs. Tink makes the distinctionthat they didn't swallow.
Mm. Do you think thatthat changes anything?
Not in my opinion.
'cause I feel like once, it's like, onceit's in the mouth, like if it's that
(15:16):
repulsive, like you can't even swallow it,
stinky trash, and
it, it tastes like it's beensitting in stinky trash.
That's enough.
I don't need you toswallow it for my account.
I mean, Mrs. Tank tried threedifferent varieties of this.
(15:38):
The husband didn't believe her
question there.
Yeah.
The husband's like, no,you're being dramatic.
Yeah.
I grabbed my pearls.
Excuse me, husband.
Yeah.
But then I like how they werelike, okay, husband, try it and
then, then two of them are, I likethat they invited us to Bucky's.
(16:01):
If we don't wanna spend the$50 on our own box, we can
have some of theirs at Bucky's,
help them complete the box.
Exactly.
Um, also I think the packaging is reallycute, which like, Mrs. Tank circles
back about like, who is the marketing?
'cause you've got Miguel.
Like yeah, brownies do lookcute, which is unfortunate.
I
mean, I do love that in a one starreview when we have a little compliment
(16:23):
sandwich, I mean even if it was meantwith a little bit of shade, they're
like, damn, like their marketingteam is a plus plus because sold me.
Also, I want to acknowledgeMrs. I almost said Mrs. Bucky's.
Mrs. Tink talks about how they'velost a hundred pounds over the years.
(16:44):
Yes.
Inspiring.
Congratulations.
I think that's adding to thevalue here for me, because they
end by saying, look, everyone Idrink beet juice in the morning.
Mm-hmm.
Like I can handledisgusting and this, I'm not
a baby.
This is a whole nother level.
I wish I had written downall of the adjectives.
'cause Mrs.
(17:04):
Tink goes off in describing throughoutthis entire minute and a half review,
disgusting, horrendous, like nonverbal.
We've reached nonverbal to describe this.
Um, and I
kind the we tra or thestinky trash really.
And I've have you tasted thingsthat, that taste like trash.
(17:25):
I know exactly what she's talking about.
I've experienced that.
Okay, well that brings, okay, so thatis interesting to me because being
married to a vegan, I recognize that likeanytime you're trying to make something,
emulate something that it clearly is not.
Mm-hmm.
It's gonna be a challenge.
So I value that Ms. Tin comes inhot by saying like, look, like maybe
(17:49):
you should stick to protein powder.
Like maybe this just, isn't it?
They have experience, they've lost weight,they're like getting on this journey.
So.
But they say like, I'm not expectinga warm brownie outta the oven.
So like, what are you like,it's hard for me because
(18:09):
is the protein gainworth the disgustingness?
Clearly not.
No, because that's the whole point of likewhy I went down this road to begin with.
Because I was like, I want.
To have, I am already drinkingthis protein shake that I like.
I wanna have something else that'sa little bit of a sweet treat,
(18:30):
and I wanna get my protein too.
And this kind of company, these typeof companies are advertising themselves
as have your cake and eat it too.
Have your cake and get a little protein.
And many people like me and Mrs. Tink areon the market looking for these things.
And like I said, there were so manyreviews talking about how great this was.
(18:51):
Clearly it was all just influencerfluff and they taste like crap.
I don't need a crappy brownie.
No, thank you.
I'll have a regular brownieand a protein shake.
I don't need like a, I, I'll have less ofthe brownie, but I'll eat a good brownie.
I don't need to eat this likedisgusting trash brownie for protein.
(19:11):
There are other ways of getting protein,
but like, should we, is there,is there a distinction here?
Like, is Mrs. Tinks taste palettegoing to be the same as mine?
Because like is this common?
Do you think people are likelying that it tastes good?
I don't know.
I think it's one of those hard thingswhere it's like you were saying with
David being a vegan, it's like if youjust haven't had cheese in a really long
(19:34):
time and then you have some vegan cheeseand you're like, oh my God, this is deli.
This happens with my boss all the time.
'cause she's vegan.
She's like, oh my God, this is so good.
Try this.
And then I try it and I'mlike, this is disgusting.
You go.
So it's like, it could be thateffect where it's just like, I
haven't had a brownie in so long.
(19:54):
But also I just, I feel likeI trust Mrs. T's palette.
I trust the comment about the beet juice.
I trust that they've clearly beenon this journey for a long time.
So I don't think this is the first proteinproduct that they've tried, you know?
Maybe it is because they're talkingabout protein powder, but either way,
I, I trust them that they know how thesekind of products are supposed to taste.
(20:18):
And I don't think that this is upto, up to snuff or whatever you wanna
say.
I mean, I think it's going into thetruthful, shady for me, like I think it's
more truthful than it is shady becauseagree, like they're espousing so many
times that they're not an influencerand that they were duped by influencers.
Like, how much are you payingthese influencers, dudes?
That, that I do feel like it's probablymore common than not, because what
(20:41):
does Mrs. Tink have to gain by lying?
Like, it seems like it's so repulsive.
Um,
and they're already out.
They're like, you owe me $50.
Like being sort of like funny and shady.
But the reality is likethey're already out this money.
They're just trying to be a good Samaritanand help us out and help me from wasting
(21:01):
$50, which I'm very happy that I didn't,
I. I also have to just mention the wind.
Yes.
In this review is very, very loud.
Yes.
I'm on Mrs. T's side.
I really like them.
But you are on a visual platform, TikTok.
(21:22):
Um, if, if the wind is louder thanyour voice, maybe we need a retake.
I do hear you.
I wanna play devil's advocate fora second only because I recently
had a conversation with a friend.
I was telling them that like sometimesGoldie will bark and we'll have to
stop recording and it's a whole thing.
And they were saying when they watchvideos, they actually like it when they
(21:45):
hear like a dog bark or something thatlets them know this is real life and
not produce like is comforting for them.
And I thought that was interesting.
That was something Ihadn't thought of before.
So leave a comment and let us knowyour opinion on that situation.
But it definitely does highlightthat Mrs. Tink is not an influencer.
(22:05):
They're just standing in their backyardrecording their real life experience.
And I hear you like if you're sensitiveto sound, maybe it will bother you.
But I wanna point out, I think it,in a weird way, it added to the
authenticity of the whole review.
All right, well that's interesting, right?
Because there's adistinction between like.
Well, but this isn't avideo on an Amazon review.
(22:25):
This is actually a TikTok review,
I guess.
But I do feel like the world of TikTokreviews is casual for people that,
yeah, is this like casual, like Iwanna connect with someone who is real.
I don't wanna connect withsomeone who is hyper produced.
The reason I'm so captivated bywhat I'm watching is because I
(22:47):
know that it's slice of life.
Fair.
I mean, I agree.
I think that's adding to the authenticity.
Yeah.
But like, but
I hear you.
It's still like annoying.
It's, it's worth mentioning,
girl, you're, you're recordinga video for people to consume.
Yes.
I can't hear you because of the wind.
But at the same time, I, I can alsounderstand and relate to the fact
that if Mrs. Tank didn't realize thewind was an issue and then they got
(23:10):
to the end of the entire recordingwhere, where they record again.
Or,
or would they, where's the curtain?
That's a little peek behindthe curtain, everyone.
Um, or would they just say, screw it?
Um, I'm just gonna post it.
Um, you know what I mean?
(23:30):
I know what you mean.
I don't know if the audience doesn't meanChelsey and I are having a conversation
beat by beat based on memory frommaybe having done this already before.
Oh my goodness.
I feel.
Impacted.
Yeah.
And I imagine that since we're here,you probably found this product because
you were looking for protein, bing.
(23:52):
Oh, a
hundred percent.
I think I said that at the topwhen I was introing the product,
like I, I was looking for proteinproducts and I came across so many
reviews for this product that were.
Great.
And that we're really glowingand that we're saying like,
oh my God, this is so good.
I mean, I will say in hindsight, Ifelt like a lot of people were eating
(24:14):
the brownie and then doing this.
Like they would like take a bite ofthe brownie and then they would go,
Hmm, that's good.
So maybe they were like acting fak it,acting and acting and washing it down.
I didn't, it's interesting.
Um, because I get why they didn't do it,but Mrs. Tank didn't eat this live on the
(24:37):
air, so all we got was the recreation.
Whereas the other reviews thatI saw that were positive, they
were actually eating them.
But now that I'm like thinking backin the recesses, in my mind I do think
that it was like, you know when you eatsomething and then you're like, Hmm, hmm.
(25:02):
Oh, that's good.
Hmm.
Like it was like a, maybe it was,there was a little bit of a delay and
it was really about the production.
Like this video stood out to me becauseit was less like, oh, here's the product.
Ooh.
So pretty, like we were sayingthe packaging, all the things.
So this was.
(25:24):
An anomaly in my search,but it was a strong enough
conviction to really sway me.
I feel weighed as well.
I feel like I don't needto try these brownies.
Right?
No.
I even though need though, I've never
met Mrs. Tank until this moment,
and just to point out like, that'sa lot of money for brownies.
(25:45):
This is not cheap.
Right?
This is a big investment and soI do think that Mrs. Tank is.
Is very impactful.
I think I can crown.
Okay, so Chelsey and I each have ourown set of zero to five crown cards.
In an effort to be fair and notinfluence one another, we will
simultaneously reveal our braiding.
(26:06):
The Queens are Tabulating,
so
to school.
Okay, so I'm holding up five crownsand Trey's holding up five crowns.
Mrs. Tink, you are a double ReviewQueen Trey, you go first, let us know
why you made Mrs. Tink a Review Queen.
(26:27):
Okay?
So there's part of me that wants totake half a crown off because you
are, regardless of authenticity,your hair is blowing in the wind.
Like not.
You must have down, I didn'tmean to call you a branch stink.
I'm actually on your side here.
I'm just saying.
It's a, it's a videothat's being recorded.
Be aware that the wind is inyour face and it's in the audio.
(26:49):
It doesn't, it doesn't matter.
It's not the big of a deal.
Everything else is veryqueenly to me because Mrs.
Tink doesn't have to sharethis opinion with us.
They do it in a way that isincredibly hilarious, informative,
funny, engaging, and impactful.
I mean, I am not gonna buythe brownies now, you know?
And I believe them.
(27:10):
And it's humorous and it's not super long.
Like they tick off all the boxes andyes, they're not Steven Spielberg.
They're not with Dreamworks.
Like they're doing it all with their hand.
So like if you don't catch the wind,whatever, um, Review Queen Chelsey.
Why did you say Review Queen?
I
mean, how can I not makeMrs. Tanker Review Queen?
(27:32):
They personally influenced me.
I know they say they'renot an influencer, but Mrs.
Tank, you are an influencer.
I agree.
You influenced me.
So thank you for spending your hardearned $50 43 on 43 to $50 on with
shipping on this product because yousaved me from spending that money.
You totally convinced me.
(27:53):
I totally believe you.
I love the compliment sandwich youstuck in there with, with giving
your, tipping your hat, so to speak,to the PR person and the team while
still letting us know it's a horribleproduct and I drink bee juice.
So I now, so everything that youdemonstrated in this video made me
(28:13):
trust and believe your opinion, whichI think is Queen Lay, and I had to make
you a Review Queen for that reason.
So thank you, Mrs. Tank,
and I will not be buying these brownies.
All right, well, queen,we've aired our grievances.
We've inspected a reviewthoroughly, so now.
(28:35):
Let's shine a light on somethingtruly deserving of a crown.
We have reached the mostregal portion of our show.
Trey, who are you inducting for?
My Royal Highness.
All right, so I'm gonna just showyou, this is actually written down.
I have it here on my notes.
My Royal Highness.
(28:56):
Oh my goodness.
So fresh,
fresh baked cookies.
And Mrs. Tink was talking aboutthe brownie outta the oven.
Okay.
Irony all.
I want us to all go back to that time.
Well, this is what, this is what's,when I think of freshly baked cookies,
it's like a whole immersive 3D memory.
I think of myself being younger as a kid.
(29:17):
It's like Friday or Saturday night.
I don't have school tomorrow.
It's like we're watching SNCCor TGIF and it's like an event
and the aroma of the cookies.
Fills the kitchen.
Mm. You like check to see if it'sdone with a toothpick because it can't
be too burnt, but it can't be too.
(29:38):
I like them crispier.
Um, and then like scraping themoff the cookie Trey and you have to
wait a few minutes so that you'renot like breaking the cookie.
It has to like get a little solid.
And I love the, the, like the ideaof like a small glass of like ice
cold milk and you like dip the.
(29:59):
Not super gooey, but it's like gooey'cause it's out of the oven and
like the chocolate is s dripping.
Like it takes me back to like being a kidand being like, it's just like so like
pleasant and I don't know how, I don'tknow what other experiences there are.
It's like an event.
Its like, it's like doesn'trequire that much time or work,
(30:20):
but it's like fulfilling and fun.
It's like a warm, gooey cookie thatyou made from like the Pillsbury.
It's like, no one's making cookie dough.
At least not me.
Um, and I don't, I don't reallydo this anymore as an adult.
Like I don't make freshbaked cookies really anymore.
And there's something solovely and charming about that.
(30:40):
So I want us all to be in thatmoment, even if we're currently
vegan and we don't eat egg, just thejoy of like, we're baking cookies.
We are enjoying the cookies, theexcitement, checking the, the
oven, like through the glass,like turning the light on.
It's like, oh my gosh, the cookiessmells so good and then you eat
(31:02):
them and you're having a sleepover.
You're in your pajamas.
That whole energy, that wholeexperience of fresh baked cookies,
yes, is My Royal Highness.
I love that.
I love cookies.
I'm obsessed with cookies.
It's the perfect dessert.
It's the perfect.
(31:23):
Love it.
Love fresh baked cookies.
Great induction Trey.
Ooh, thank you.
Alright, well we did a queen.
The good, the bad, the repeat, the vecchi.
That's another round.
The windy on the R ru.
A RQ, Ferris whale love.
Steven, where are you?
Spielberg baby.
That's right.
Thank you for joining us today.
If you like what you heard, eventhe wind, please call a friend
(31:46):
and if you did not like what you heard,especially the wind tell an enemy.
Okay, this is funny.
Today, on this week's after showpodcast, Chelsey and I are going
to be rating and reviewing thistwo star Amazon review four.
Schl farm world.
(32:11):
Two barrel rodeo racing play set,rodeo racing toy set with cowgirl
and horse realistic Western rodeo.
Farm animal toys and accessories.
Six piece kids toy for boys and girls.
Wow.
So with that mouthful of a title,I wonder why this was said because
(32:35):
at first I was like, oh grandma,you just bought the wrong one.
But now I'm like, maybe grandma reallyinfluenced them and they, or maybe
they got more complaints like, oh no,everybody knows it's three barrels.
Where
are you getting grandma from?
Didn't she say she boughtit for her granddaughter?
The reviewer's name is Jason.
(32:59):
I wonder as well.
Well, as we are allwondering, please remember,
ignore the haters.
You are queen.
Gender nonspecific brownie eating queen.
That's right, but not these brownies,because these brownies are gross.

video stopped literally halfway through.
Chelsey's was double the length of mine.
Can't figure out why.
So we rerecorded from reviewingon and then it happened again.
(34:03):
Yeah.
So then when Boo gotto the Royal Highness.
Peek behind the curtain.
That was our third take of this episode.
Something is up.

Everybody's got an opinion.
Every Californian, Virginian inVirginia, it's so hard to tell
who to cho and who to ignore.
Someone's gotta settle The Score.
Trey and Chelsey will helpyou choose who's win, which.
(00:31):
Hello.
Well, hello and welcometo Review That Review.
We are the podcast that isdedicated to reviewing reviews.
That is Chelsey Donn,
and that is Trey Gerrald.
But together
we are the Review Queen.
(00:55):
Here at Review.
That Review, we believe in balance,the good, the bad, and the kvetchy.
So it's only fair that wetake a moment to fetch it out.
Trey, would you like to
Lodge A
Complaint?
I'm already mad.
I'm already mad.
You
already know.
The exhale starts
(01:16):
because I noted this on okay.
Three days ago, and I was like, oh.
My God, this is a zero to 1000 for me.
Mm. Okay.
I don't know how in the 205 episodes,this has not been lodged yet.
Okay.
I'm gonna try to not, um, be concernedwith how I'm gonna be received with this.
(01:40):
Mm, got it.
Okay.
I moonlight in customer service,so I feel like I have a right
to, to complain about this today.
I need to Lodge A Complaint against.
Not doing your job title.
Okay.
I'm getting get more specific.
Hold on.
My prime example iswhen I walk into my gym,
(02:04):
there
are people whose jobdescription is greeter.
You know what?
They don't ever do greet you.
Wait.
I'm like, I am.
I'm not playing this up.
I am so angry.
I need to chill out.
Okay.
Okay.
It makes me so angry becausetoday in our electronic world,
(02:29):
they're not signing you in.
Mm. They're not lookingat the computer monitor.
It's not even like a key chain anymore.
It's an app.
It just, I scan myself.
Sometimes they're typing on thecomputer, so I don't even, I
think the whole scanning is like.
A conspiracy anyway.
I don't think anyone's being,
(02:51):
when you are hired to work a front desk togreet people and you never say hello, what
are you doing with your life, your job?
I'm, I'm sorry.
I need to chill.
I'm, it makes me so angry becauseI'm not gonna say hi first.
I'm not doing your job for you.
I'm employed and I dothings that I don't like.
(03:14):
I make money from things Ididn't dream of as an 8-year-old.
So I can have sympathy for you that youprobably did not dream as an 8-year-old
of working at the front desk at a gym,working as a concierge at a hotel,
working as a greeter at a restaurant.
Maybe that wasn't your dream, right?
But your job is.
(03:35):
Screening.
Why do you not say hello?
I'm not doing your job for you.
I'm not saying hello first.
The, if I were to make a tabulation ofthe amount of times I've said hello, when
I enter the gym that I've been going tofor four and a half years, I've probably
said hello 20 times in the four years thatI've gone because they don't say hello.
(03:58):
They are talking to themselves.
They're on their phone.
They're.
Hibbing over here with like theone Broy guy that is there every
day and they're friends with.
I recognize I am not awarm person at the gym.
I have a lot of trauma from beingraised gay in the south, so I am
not trying to engage with anyonewho presents as straight male.
(04:21):
Um, so I keep my head down.
I recognize I may not be puttingoff an energy of wanting to be
said hello to, but it's your job.
Your job is to say hello.
And my response is supposed to be, hi.
And then that's it.
That's all I Why are you agreeter and you don't greet?
That's my complaint.
It's your job description.
(04:42):
I'm not saying hi first.
It's your job.
You shouldn't be on yourphone if you're being paid.
Period.
That's its own.
Yes.
Sorry you guys.
I don't know why I'm so angry.
It makes me so angry.
I, I get it.
'cause it's like, what are youhired to like observe me walking
(05:04):
in the door and not say hello?
Like, why are you even there either?
Either we're gonna do this as arobot thing and I'm just gonna scan
myself in and there's not gonna beanybody looking at me in this moment.
Or if you're there looking at mein this moment, at least do your
job and say hello and make thisa pleasant experience otherwise.
(05:25):
Go like Kibbitz in the back withyour coworker, because I don't
need to be here looking at this.
I have a mission.
I have something to do.
Either help me stay on trackwith that mission or GTFO
and I will.
'cause I did inquire specifically,I'm like envisioning, but this
happens in other examples.
Yeah.
But I am envisioning my gem.
(05:47):
These people are paid a salary.
Like it's not like they're working thefront desk to get a free membership.
Get a free
membership.
It is actually, but even if
they were, that's still like a barter.
Correct.
That's still what
you're signing up for.
But that's not the situation.
They're being paid to greet.
So,
and they don't have other jobs.
Like, not that I'm, it's maybethey, like if, if they're.
(06:07):
You know, signing up otherpeople at the desk and they
have like a ton of things to do.
No, they're
not even the membership people.
Okay.
There are explicit membership people,
like their job, job is frontdesk reception, reading.
Yes.
Yeah.
Get it together.
My dad obviously might, it's a dentist.
He has like receptionists.
(06:28):
If they didn't say something to thepatients when they like walked into
the door like, Hey, so good to see you.
Okay, because what'sreally underneath this?
How old are your dad's receptionists?
Well, my dad's receptionistshave been with him.
That's the end of theconversation for so many years.
(06:49):
Okay.
So they're older.
That's the point.
I mean, even some younger ones,but he always complains about them.
But I think this culture,
yeah,
look, I'm not trying to havethis Gen Z conversation.
Sure.
But I'm just saying whenyou have grown up like this.
Right.
Right, right.
You don't know how youdon't engage with people.
That's
right.
And I think you're right.
(07:10):
I think that makes me very sad.
Yeah, that is sad.
And I'm someone, full disclosure,it's not just the gym.
Don't talk to me.
I don't want to talk to people.
I am a loner.
I'm an introvert.
I, well, that's
what I'm saying.
I think it's like the either orfor you, like you'd be totally
fine if there was nobody there.
Yes.
But the fact that there is somebodythere, it's like, well, at least
(07:32):
do what you're supposed to do.
If I need to interact with you insome, if I need to pick up on your
energy, at least give me something.
And I recognize it's a little, like justsay hello, but I am sticking on this hill.
I'm not gonna do your job for you.
You have to say hello to me first.
That's what you'rebeing paid to do, right?
Sure.
(07:52):
I'm not being paid to say hi.
You are.
I'm paying to say hi.
How does that work?
And
I pay a lot of money.
Yeah.
I shouldn't be paying to say hi.
Okay,
I get it.
I hear you.
Thank,
thank you for being with me with that.
It really bothers me.
I understand.
I think anytime anyone is, seems tobe there for a specific purpose that
they're, that they're not fulfilling.
(08:13):
It's extremely frustrating.
A long time ago I complainedabout those people that stand
next to the parking things.
While I'm like trying to get my creditcard in, there's literally someone
that's standing in like a booth whoseonly job it is to help me put my credit
card in if my arm is too short andcan't reach, and sometimes they just
stand there and watch me struggle.
(08:35):
Yes.
Frustrating.
You know, that's
your, that's your job.
So I hear you.
Add it to the ledger Trey.
Thank you.
I mean, just say hi.
Just do it.
If your job description is, ifyour title is greeter, is greeter.
And you're not greeting.
What you doing babe?
What
are you doing?
What are you doing?
Good.
(08:55):
Good complaint.
All right.
Well, should we jumpinto an online review,
Chelsey?
Should we crystal it out?
I mean, I feel like let's clear the energyfor somebody else to take the floor.
Should we?
Well, I don't have a crystal atthe moment, but I do have this.
Oh, beautiful ring.
Ooh, that.
That counts.
Alright, well should we jump in
before we do?
(09:17):
This is my favorite part of the show.
Yes.
Please just take a quick moment.

Put in the comments,
Review That.
Review
as your trustee.
Review Queens, we bring in internetreviews that we feel need to be inspected.
(09:58):
We read you a review.
We break it down, and then we ratethe impact of that review on a
scale from zero to five crowns.
It's a very regal process that wecall Assess That Kvetch and Chelsey.
It's a Chelsey episode.
What have you got for us?
All right, so full disclosure, I'vebeen trying to get like more protein in.
(10:20):
This is my favorite protein shake.
It's core power.
Um, and I really enjoy it.
I'm, I'm doing my best.
I can't get enough protein in withjust eating, so I'm trying to do
the protein shakes, and I'm alwayson the hunt for a new product.
Maybe I want a little dessert orsomething that also has protein,
(10:40):
like I love a dual function item.
And so I've been looking and Icame across a lot these brownies
that are protein brownies, okay?
And they're kind of likeall over the internet.
As soon as you start Googling that, youlike proteins, you start seeing this,
this company called Prime Bites, okay?
(11:05):
And they make protein brownies.
And they have 19 grams of protein, whichis like for a brownie, pretty excellent.
And they also have five grams ofcollagen and literally all over YouTube,
shorts, TikTok, Instagram, there'sall these people of all ages being
(11:30):
like, oh my God, this is delicious.
So I was like, maybeI'm gonna order these.
But then I came across one reviewthat had a different opinion, and
it was enough of a different opinionto make me decide not to order.
So I think it's worth bringing in today.
This is a TikTok reviewthat was written by Mrs.
(11:58):
Which I think is not to beconfused with Mr. Stink.
So it's definitely Misses Tank,and this is a one out of 10.
Review, so not very good.
This is to every influencer that said,these brownies were the best thing ever.
You owe me $50.
(12:19):
I have seen these hyped up onTikTok for so freaking long.
I finally caved in and bought them.
I paid like $43 for thisbox of like 12 brownies.
This was the one I was hypedup for, was the birthday cake.
I wanted to try it with my coworker.
We were both so excited to finallytry it, broke it in half, took a bite,
immediately spit it in the trash can.
(12:42):
Disgusting, absolutely disgusting.
Telling my husband about it, he waslike, no, you're being dramatic.
Came home again.
We tried this cookie dough.
You ever have stinky, stinky trash andit just smells when you go in the house.
Take one of these brownies, set itin there for about five minutes.
That's what they taste like.
They literally taste like stinky trash.
(13:03):
I don't know who's in charge of themarketing and the PR for this company,
but you're doing a fantastic job.
'cause you played me probablythousands of other people as well.
I don't know how much money y'allare paying these influencers,
but you ain't paying me nothing.
Did I expect like a sweetbrownie out of the oven?
No.
I mean I've lost like a hundredpounds over the last like a year.
Okay.
I know a little bit about protein.
(13:24):
I'm gagging, just ugh.
They're not good.
Do not waste your money on this stickto like protein powder or something.
These are not it, dude.
I'm telling you.
They're absolutely horrendous.
If you're local to me and youwanna try one, meet me at Bucky's.
We'll have a taste test.
I have not swallowed any of this.
Like I took two bites oftwo different flavors.
Spit it out.
I tried y'all.
I really, really tried.
(13:45):
I mean, I drink like beetjuice in the morning.
Like I can handle it.
This is not it.
Absolutely zero out of 10 from me.
All right.
That was actually a zero outta 10 review.
I misspoke.
I said one out of 10.
It's actually zero out of 10 for Mrs.
Tank for these brownies.
So what do you think, Ry?
Well, that's the valuable part ofit being a TikTok review, because
you can say zero, whereas youcan't say that on Amazon or Google.
(14:09):
Uh, all right.
Well, I, first of all, I, first of all,the TW Mrs. Is clearly part of my kinfolk.
I. I, I'm not gonna venture tosay it might be South Carolina, it
might be Louisiana, I'm not sure,but it's definitely my, my kinfolk.
I first of all want to acknowledge here.
Um, Mrs. Tink says that theyspent $50 and then like a few
(14:33):
minutes later they say it was $43.
It.
Do you think the $7 differenceis like an interest charge?
I mean, I think it might be like shipping.
Maybe we're just like roundingup because we just, we think we
deserve like a $7 trauma fee.
I don't know, but I feel like 43 50, I didnotice it, but it didn't super bother me.
(14:56):
Also.
Yes.
Go for it.
Well, question.
Okay.
Yeah.
So Mrs. Tink makes the distinctionthat they didn't swallow.
Mm. Do you think thatthat changes anything?
Not in my opinion.
'cause I feel like once, it's like, onceit's in the mouth, like if it's that
(15:16):
repulsive, like you can't even swallow it,
stinky trash, and
it, it tastes like it's beensitting in stinky trash.
That's enough.
I don't need you toswallow it for my account.
I mean, Mrs. Tank tried threedifferent varieties of this.
(15:38):
The husband didn't believe her
question there.
Yeah.
The husband's like, no,you're being dramatic.
Yeah.
I grabbed my pearls.
Excuse me, husband.
Yeah.
But then I like how they werelike, okay, husband, try it and
then, then two of them are, I likethat they invited us to Bucky's.
(16:01):
If we don't wanna spend the$50 on our own box, we can
have some of theirs at Bucky's,
help them complete the box.
Exactly.
Um, also I think the packaging is reallycute, which like, Mrs. Tank circles
back about like, who is the marketing?
'cause you've got Miguel.
Like yeah, brownies do lookcute, which is unfortunate.
I
mean, I do love that in a one starreview when we have a little compliment
(16:23):
sandwich, I mean even if it was meantwith a little bit of shade, they're
like, damn, like their marketingteam is a plus plus because sold me.
Also, I want to acknowledgeMrs. I almost said Mrs. Bucky's.
Mrs. Tink talks about how they'velost a hundred pounds over the years.
(16:44):
Yes.
Inspiring.
Congratulations.
I think that's adding to thevalue here for me, because they
end by saying, look, everyone Idrink beet juice in the morning.
Mm-hmm.
Like I can handledisgusting and this, I'm not
a baby.
This is a whole nother level.
I wish I had written downall of the adjectives.
'cause Mrs.
(17:04):
Tink goes off in describing throughoutthis entire minute and a half review,
disgusting, horrendous, like nonverbal.
We've reached nonverbal to describe this.
Um, and I
kind the we tra or thestinky trash really.
And I've have you tasted thingsthat, that taste like trash.
(17:25):
I know exactly what she's talking about.
I've experienced that.
Okay, well that brings, okay, so thatis interesting to me because being
married to a vegan, I recognize that likeanytime you're trying to make something,
emulate something that it clearly is not.
Mm-hmm.
It's gonna be a challenge.
So I value that Ms. Tin comes inhot by saying like, look, like maybe
(17:49):
you should stick to protein powder.
Like maybe this just, isn't it?
They have experience, they've lost weight,they're like getting on this journey.
So.
But they say like, I'm not expectinga warm brownie outta the oven.
So like, what are you like,it's hard for me because
(18:09):
is the protein gainworth the disgustingness?
Clearly not.
No, because that's the whole point of likewhy I went down this road to begin with.
Because I was like, I want.
To have, I am already drinkingthis protein shake that I like.
I wanna have something else that'sa little bit of a sweet treat,
(18:30):
and I wanna get my protein too.
And this kind of company, these typeof companies are advertising themselves
as have your cake and eat it too.
Have your cake and get a little protein.
And many people like me and Mrs. Tink areon the market looking for these things.
And like I said, there were so manyreviews talking about how great this was.
(18:51):
Clearly it was all just influencerfluff and they taste like crap.
I don't need a crappy brownie.
No, thank you.
I'll have a regular brownieand a protein shake.
I don't need like a, I, I'll have less ofthe brownie, but I'll eat a good brownie.
I don't need to eat this likedisgusting trash brownie for protein.
(19:11):
There are other ways of getting protein,
but like, should we, is there,is there a distinction here?
Like, is Mrs. Tinks taste palettegoing to be the same as mine?
Because like is this common?
Do you think people are likelying that it tastes good?
I don't know.
I think it's one of those hard thingswhere it's like you were saying with
David being a vegan, it's like if youjust haven't had cheese in a really long
(19:34):
time and then you have some vegan cheeseand you're like, oh my God, this is deli.
This happens with my boss all the time.
'cause she's vegan.
She's like, oh my God, this is so good.
Try this.
And then I try it and I'mlike, this is disgusting.
You go.
So it's like, it could be thateffect where it's just like, I
haven't had a brownie in so long.
(19:54):
But also I just, I feel likeI trust Mrs. T's palette.
I trust the comment about the beet juice.
I trust that they've clearly beenon this journey for a long time.
So I don't think this is the first proteinproduct that they've tried, you know?
Maybe it is because they're talkingabout protein powder, but either way,
I, I trust them that they know how thesekind of products are supposed to taste.
(20:18):
And I don't think that this is upto, up to snuff or whatever you wanna
say.
I mean, I think it's going into thetruthful, shady for me, like I think it's
more truthful than it is shady becauseagree, like they're espousing so many
times that they're not an influencerand that they were duped by influencers.
Like, how much are you payingthese influencers, dudes?
That, that I do feel like it's probablymore common than not, because what
(20:41):
does Mrs. Tink have to gain by lying?
Like, it seems like it's so repulsive.
Um,
and they're already out.
They're like, you owe me $50.
Like being sort of like funny and shady.
But the reality is likethey're already out this money.
They're just trying to be a good Samaritanand help us out and help me from wasting
(21:01):
$50, which I'm very happy that I didn't,
I. I also have to just mention the wind.
Yes.
In this review is very, very loud.
Yes.
I'm on Mrs. T's side.
I really like them.
But you are on a visual platform, TikTok.
(21:22):
Um, if, if the wind is louder thanyour voice, maybe we need a retake.
I do hear you.
I wanna play devil's advocate fora second only because I recently
had a conversation with a friend.
I was telling them that like sometimesGoldie will bark and we'll have to
stop recording and it's a whole thing.
And they were saying when they watchvideos, they actually like it when they
(21:45):
hear like a dog bark or something thatlets them know this is real life and
not produce like is comforting for them.
And I thought that was interesting.
That was something Ihadn't thought of before.
So leave a comment and let us knowyour opinion on that situation.
But it definitely does highlightthat Mrs. Tink is not an influencer.
(22:05):
They're just standing in their backyardrecording their real life experience.
And I hear you like if you're sensitiveto sound, maybe it will bother you.
But I wanna point out, I think it,in a weird way, it added to the
authenticity of the whole review.
All right, well that's interesting, right?
Because there's adistinction between like.
Well, but this isn't avideo on an Amazon review.
(22:25):
This is actually a TikTok review,
I guess.
But I do feel like the world of TikTokreviews is casual for people that,
yeah, is this like casual, like Iwanna connect with someone who is real.
I don't wanna connect withsomeone who is hyper produced.
The reason I'm so captivated bywhat I'm watching is because I
(22:47):
know that it's slice of life.
Fair.
I mean, I agree.
I think that's adding to the authenticity.
Yeah.
But like, but
I hear you.
It's still like annoying.
It's, it's worth mentioning,
girl, you're, you're recordinga video for people to consume.
Yes.
I can't hear you because of the wind.
But at the same time, I, I can alsounderstand and relate to the fact
that if Mrs. Tank didn't realize thewind was an issue and then they got
(23:10):
to the end of the entire recordingwhere, where they record again.
Or,
or would they, where's the curtain?
That's a little peek behindthe curtain, everyone.
Um, or would they just say, screw it?
Um, I'm just gonna post it.
Um, you know what I mean?
(23:30):
I know what you mean.
I don't know if the audience doesn't meanChelsey and I are having a conversation
beat by beat based on memory frommaybe having done this already before.
Oh my goodness.
I feel.
Impacted.
Yeah.
And I imagine that since we're here,you probably found this product because
you were looking for protein, bing.
(23:52):
Oh, a
hundred percent.
I think I said that at the topwhen I was introing the product,
like I, I was looking for proteinproducts and I came across so many
reviews for this product that were.
Great.
And that we're really glowingand that we're saying like,
oh my God, this is so good.
I mean, I will say in hindsight, Ifelt like a lot of people were eating
(24:14):
the brownie and then doing this.
Like they would like take a bite ofthe brownie and then they would go,
Hmm, that's good.
So maybe they were like acting fak it,acting and acting and washing it down.
I didn't, it's interesting.
Um, because I get why they didn't do it,but Mrs. Tank didn't eat this live on the
(24:37):
air, so all we got was the recreation.
Whereas the other reviews thatI saw that were positive, they
were actually eating them.
But now that I'm like thinking backin the recesses, in my mind I do think
that it was like, you know when you eatsomething and then you're like, Hmm, hmm.
(25:02):
Oh, that's good.
Hmm.
Like it was like a, maybe it was,there was a little bit of a delay and
it was really about the production.
Like this video stood out to me becauseit was less like, oh, here's the product.
Ooh.
So pretty, like we were sayingthe packaging, all the things.
So this was.
(25:24):
An anomaly in my search,but it was a strong enough
conviction to really sway me.
I feel weighed as well.
I feel like I don't needto try these brownies.
Right?
No.
I even though need though, I've never
met Mrs. Tank until this moment,
and just to point out like, that'sa lot of money for brownies.
(25:45):
This is not cheap.
Right?
This is a big investment and soI do think that Mrs. Tank is.
Is very impactful.
I think I can crown.
Okay, so Chelsey and I each have ourown set of zero to five crown cards.
In an effort to be fair and notinfluence one another, we will
simultaneously reveal our braiding.
(26:06):
The Queens are Tabulating,
so
to school.
Okay, so I'm holding up five crownsand Trey's holding up five crowns.
Mrs. Tink, you are a double ReviewQueen Trey, you go first, let us know
why you made Mrs. Tink a Review Queen.
(26:27):
Okay?
So there's part of me that wants totake half a crown off because you
are, regardless of authenticity,your hair is blowing in the wind.
Like not.
You must have down, I didn'tmean to call you a branch stink.
I'm actually on your side here.
I'm just saying.
It's a, it's a videothat's being recorded.
Be aware that the wind is inyour face and it's in the audio.
(26:49):
It doesn't, it doesn't matter.
It's not the big of a deal.
Everything else is veryqueenly to me because Mrs.
Tink doesn't have to sharethis opinion with us.
They do it in a way that isincredibly hilarious, informative,
funny, engaging, and impactful.
I mean, I am not gonna buythe brownies now, you know?
And I believe them.
(27:10):
And it's humorous and it's not super long.
Like they tick off all the boxes andyes, they're not Steven Spielberg.
They're not with Dreamworks.
Like they're doing it all with their hand.
So like if you don't catch the wind,whatever, um, Review Queen Chelsey.
Why did you say Review Queen?
I
mean, how can I not makeMrs. Tanker Review Queen?
(27:32):
They personally influenced me.
I know they say they'renot an influencer, but Mrs.
Tank, you are an influencer.
I agree.
You influenced me.
So thank you for spending your hardearned $50 43 on 43 to $50 on with
shipping on this product because yousaved me from spending that money.
You totally convinced me.
(27:53):
I totally believe you.
I love the compliment sandwich youstuck in there with, with giving
your, tipping your hat, so to speak,to the PR person and the team while
still letting us know it's a horribleproduct and I drink bee juice.
So I now, so everything that youdemonstrated in this video made me
(28:13):
trust and believe your opinion, whichI think is Queen Lay, and I had to make
you a Review Queen for that reason.
So thank you, Mrs. Tank,
and I will not be buying these brownies.
All right, well, queen,we've aired our grievances.
We've inspected a reviewthoroughly, so now.
(28:35):
Let's shine a light on somethingtruly deserving of a crown.
We have reached the mostregal portion of our show.
Trey, who are you inducting for?
My Royal Highness.
All right, so I'm gonna just showyou, this is actually written down.
I have it here on my notes.
My Royal Highness.
(28:56):
Oh my goodness.
So fresh,
fresh baked cookies.
And Mrs. Tink was talking aboutthe brownie outta the oven.
Okay.
Irony all.
I want us to all go back to that time.
Well, this is what, this is what's,when I think of freshly baked cookies,
it's like a whole immersive 3D memory.
I think of myself being younger as a kid.
(29:17):
It's like Friday or Saturday night.
I don't have school tomorrow.
It's like we're watching SNCCor TGIF and it's like an event
and the aroma of the cookies.
Fills the kitchen.
Mm. You like check to see if it'sdone with a toothpick because it can't
be too burnt, but it can't be too.
(29:38):
I like them crispier.
Um, and then like scraping themoff the cookie Trey and you have to
wait a few minutes so that you'renot like breaking the cookie.
It has to like get a little solid.
And I love the, the, like the ideaof like a small glass of like ice
cold milk and you like dip the.
(29:59):
Not super gooey, but it's like gooey'cause it's out of the oven and
like the chocolate is s dripping.
Like it takes me back to like being a kidand being like, it's just like so like
pleasant and I don't know how, I don'tknow what other experiences there are.
It's like an event.
Its like, it's like doesn'trequire that much time or work,
(30:20):
but it's like fulfilling and fun.
It's like a warm, gooey cookie thatyou made from like the Pillsbury.
It's like, no one's making cookie dough.
At least not me.
Um, and I don't, I don't reallydo this anymore as an adult.
Like I don't make freshbaked cookies really anymore.
And there's something solovely and charming about that.
(30:40):
So I want us all to be in thatmoment, even if we're currently
vegan and we don't eat egg, just thejoy of like, we're baking cookies.
We are enjoying the cookies, theexcitement, checking the, the
oven, like through the glass,like turning the light on.
It's like, oh my gosh, the cookiessmells so good and then you eat
(31:02):
them and you're having a sleepover.
You're in your pajamas.
That whole energy, that wholeexperience of fresh baked cookies,
yes, is My Royal Highness.
I love that.
I love cookies.
I'm obsessed with cookies.
It's the perfect dessert.
It's the perfect.
(31:23):
Love it.
Love fresh baked cookies.
Great induction Trey.
Ooh, thank you.
Alright, well we did a queen.
The good, the bad, the repeat, the vecchi.
That's another round.
The windy on the R ru.
A RQ, Ferris whale love.
Steven, where are you?
Spielberg baby.
That's right.
Thank you for joining us today.
If you like what you heard, eventhe wind, please call a friend
(31:46):
and if you did not like what you heard,especially the wind tell an enemy.
Okay, this is funny.
Today, on this week's after showpodcast, Chelsey and I are going
to be rating and reviewing thistwo star Amazon review four.
Schl farm world.
(32:11):
Two barrel rodeo racing play set,rodeo racing toy set with cowgirl
and horse realistic Western rodeo.
Farm animal toys and accessories.
Six piece kids toy for boys and girls.
Wow.
So with that mouthful of a title,I wonder why this was said because
(32:35):
at first I was like, oh grandma,you just bought the wrong one.
But now I'm like, maybe grandma reallyinfluenced them and they, or maybe
they got more complaints like, oh no,everybody knows it's three barrels.
Where
are you getting grandma from?
Didn't she say she boughtit for her granddaughter?
The reviewer's name is Jason.
(32:59):
I wonder as well.
Well, as we are allwondering, please remember,
