Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well, we know that Paul Bunyan over here has a
lot of issues. I got resident Oregon Lumberjacks ready for
the Arctic winter flannel jacket.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Today.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Well, there's an atmospheric river.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Moving in a couple of days, so I need to
I don't know, it's just the news. You know, when
it rains in San Diego, it doesn't just like rain.
It's like they claim, like the sky is going to
fall out this weekend. Everybody get ready.
Speaker 4 (00:25):
Yeah, it's over the top.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
It can be a bad one.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
You can't watch the news right now.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Yeah, well, you never know to believe it or not.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Like there's a couple of times it really has been
about one but then most of the time it kind
of just drizzles and then we're like, was that it?
So either way, I decided to hedge my bets and wear.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
My Is it raining today?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
No, that's what my daughter said, was like eighty degrees
yesterday this album it was really hot, but you know,
I was seeing the news and it made me feel
like I was cold, So I decided I need it
wear the sticky all right.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Well, yeah, as I said, you know, she's got a
lot of issue, but her issue today is something very specific.
They looked like there was a little bit of a
situation going on with something that you bought.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yes, yes, you know I'm not normally the one to
try and take on a corporation. I feel that's more
thores back. That is true, but today I've been made
to feel a fool and I don't care for it.
So my husband has been dealing with an undiagnosed illness.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
For a couple of days.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
With this, I can't either, Emily, So I've come to
realization that I may.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Be with the wrong one.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Together twenty five years.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I know I can't deal with this though.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
So my husband has something that we refer to as
a case of the passiouties.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Yes, it's been talked about for many years.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Yes, yes, So basically he has this like vagual nerve. Well,
I guess we all have it, but his is extra
sensitive or something, so he can't get any sort of
motion sickness, stomach sickness, anything like that, because if that happens,
he literally like loses all control of his body. He
breaks out in a crazy sweat to the point where
(02:10):
all his clothes are drenched. He turns white as a ghost,
and he's incapacitated.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Seen it.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Yeah, Edie has seen it with his own eyes.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
That was just drunk.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
It was partially because of that. We were in Vegas.
It was me, Thor Skuy and the Boo taking some
random uber ride home and we get to our hotel
and Boo is passed out in the front seat, like
passed out, and we all thought, oh, he's wasted. Whatever. Well,
it was a combination of that and this Pasciuti situation
(02:42):
where we drag him out of the car and he's
passed out in front of the luxe ore on the ground,
on the ground in like the bushes.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Yeah, and he keeps like kind of you know, he's
with it enough by that point to tell us just.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Go without me, just leave me.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
He was a wounded soul throw the ground.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
But even with like Thor and Eddie, this guy becomes
such a sack of dead weight that security had to
come with a wheelchair and wheel him up.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
And he will forever be known as wheelchair boot.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yes, that's where that comes from. But it's something I've
seen so many times, whether it's from car sickness, whether
it's because he has the stomach flu like literally anything
that triggers the nausea like going on a merry go round, Like, honestly,
anything could lead.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
To this sensitive fellow.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Yeah, yeah, something about that vaguel nerve.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yeah, I call it the vegus nerve, but I think it's.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Actually so so anyway, So it's pretty freaky when you
see a human like that, right, So, But the thing
that sucks about it and why I'm reconsidering my entire
marriage that recently this happened to my husband a couple
of days ago. And you see a human like that
(04:01):
and you think they're dying, like you literally your mind
goes to the worst place, like do I need to
call nine one one, like, because honestly, I don't know
if this is just motion sickness or if you're actually
dying because you look a mess. So we were dealing
with that in our house this week. Turns out, after
two days of me freaking out thinking he may have
(04:23):
like crazy things anywhere from the flu to like meningitis,
turns out he had a tummy thing going on and
that led him to have a case of the wheelchair booze.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Oh boy.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
So, because when your stomach's upset, there's a few things
I go to We always have to have bananas, white rice, saltine, crackers,
and sprite.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
These are your options.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
So you're do the Brat diet.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Basically the Brat diet.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
But those are like the specific things that for some reason,
I like.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
I prefer saltines over toast.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
But I the A is apple sauce. Okay.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah, So basically Brad basically the brawd diet.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
And everybody that has a upset stomach either does ginger
ale or sprite.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Yes, you have to.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
You have to have.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
You have to. It's not like a thing or that's
what your parents did.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
It's the ginger, the ginger that's supposed to settle your stomach.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
Yeah, but the why is spread because like I remember
doing ginger, but I also remember my mom giving me
seven up.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Seven seven up.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
I think that's the sugar.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Older.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
I think it's the sugar because when you have a
stomach thing, normally you can get dehydrated and you're like
electro lights are low and they say it's good to
get sugar.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
It's the ginger.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Ginger ginger ale, but in regards.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Does have some sort of ginger aspect. I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
No, lemon, lime, soda.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Yeah, and so it's all about like just kind of
like gatorade or pedi a light. It's kind of like
a cheaper you know, just to get a little sugar
in your body, is what I always heard.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
I don't know if that's true or not.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
None, none of us know.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
None of us know.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
But anyway, I'm I'm a sprite go to.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
So I'm rushing around Target on my way home from
work because again I think my husband could either be
at home dying or who knows, you know what it
could be. So I'm rushing around and I see on
an end cap as I'm running by with my bananas
sprite and I'm like perfect. And then they're the mini
cans cause we don't really have soda in the house.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
So I got many is plenty.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
I doct whoever the.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Mini can love you, Ye, genius, ridiculous. So I grab
I see on the end cap. I'm like, hell, yeah,
a mini can thing a sprite.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Let's go take it.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Check out wonderful, get home, give the hobbies some sprite.
He's like, oh my gosh, thank you, Like I feel
like dehydrated. Perfect, And then he takes a zip and
I see his face go weird, and he goes, man like,
I don't know. My taste buds must be off. He goes,
it tastes like sprite, but it's like weird, And I'm like,
what do you mean weird?
Speaker 3 (06:57):
He goes, I don't know. It tastes like there.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Was juice in my cap and then somebody put sprite
in it and there was like a little remnant of juice.
Was like, yeah, your taste punds must be off. You know,
of course I can a COVID test, you know, no COVID.
And then my daughter comes home and she sees, here's
what got sprite in the house.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
She wants one. She takes one. She goes, what is
this weird sprite?
Speaker 2 (07:19):
And then that's when she looks at the can and says,
you have.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Bought what is it? Winter winter spiced cranberry sprite?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Oh God?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
And I look at her and I go, there's no
way I bought sprite. It said on the box sprite.
I said, it did have like kind of a Christmas
design on it. I said, but it's like, you know,
everybody's doing Christmas stuff already, So I'm like what, And
then she pulls the whole box out of the fridge
(07:53):
and shows me that on the box it does say
winter spiced cranberry.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
She you bought the wrong thing.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
I got a big issue, bro, I got a big issue, right,
we know, because this thing that says winter spice cranberry
is like microscopic. Okay, It's like you have to be
Sherlock Holmes with your mag your lives last to see this.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
When you're walking by a whole row of sodas.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
I understand what you're saying with the winter spice cranberry lettering,
but the giant red part of the sprite doesn't throw
you off at all to the point of where you
need to look well.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Because where it's red, it doesn't say like if it
was red and then it said cranberry, cranberry, cranberry cranberry's
Oh see, I don't even think those are cranberries until
you legit said that right now. I thought those were
like Christmas ornament balls because where the red part is
it says many, many, many many, So I'm like, these
are many sprites. They did the packaging up for Chris
(09:00):
miss and in no way did I see this microscopic writing.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
You made a mistake, sor right.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
No, the way my family looks to me like I
was a freakin' moral so.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
They think that you're an idiot. You should have noticed.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
I'm I'm one hundred percent with Sky on this as
far as like I would absolutely not obviously when I
look at when I when I look into by the way,
it's so crazy that the sprite is over the big
green part right white white lettering. That's a sprite. And
then they wrote winter spice cranberry and all white lettering too.
That's not even like red or anything that's weird. And
there's not cranberry's right there color like you know, smages
(09:35):
of it. So like I that is like horrible labeling
on their part.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
Yeah, very confusing.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
I really wouldn't have thought those were cranberries until he
saw winter spice cranberry.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
And honestly, it wouldn't have fazed me too much.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
I would have been like, oh silly, Sky didn't notice.
But the way my family looked at me, oh like
like hey dummy, like anyone would have known that this
is a weird flavor of sprite really affected me to
the point where I now want like an apology from
Sprite that I can show my family to be like, yes, ma'am,
(10:10):
this is a common problem.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
You're not the only one.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
It was a common problem. Then they would change the packaging.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Well, I'm assuming this is the first run that they've
ever made.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Of this South, but you don't know that they could
have made this for years.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
You are accurate. I have no idea, but based on
this mix.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Up, okay, I want you you're not going to get one.
You're not going to get one. I have one big
question here. Yes, I understand what you guys are saying
with the lettering. Yeah, it should be more bold and
pronounced spread across the box. I totally understand what you're saying.
The red that would give me pause, and I would
(10:50):
be like, oh what is this? And and I kind
of would have thought the same thing, Maybe it's like
Christmas packaging or whatever, which would have made me look
at the thing a little bit more closely, and then
I would have seen winter spice cranberry. Okay, But the
key to all of this, which I can't answer. The
only person can answer this is you, Skuy. Yes, it
sounds like you were kind of moving fast. I was
(11:12):
like a certain someone.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
My friend, Emma, yep, I do you were.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Getting your end cap sprite move in in the end cap?
Was there any advertising of said winter spice cranberry sprite?
Can you recall this?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
I do not recall like a bigger sign.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
But this was not like a specialty end cap like
you know how sometimes they'll build like a tower of
beer and then it'll have a sign for that beer
on it.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
That boxes didn't spell out cranberry right.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
This was like an end cap that's always there that
sometimes they'll be bread in it, sometimes they'll be ships
in it. So I don't recall any special sprite labeling
of any sort.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
But you are correct. I was moving fast.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Before you take on the whole Coca Cola corporation. I
think you need to go back and see what the
end cap looks.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Like, take a photo, get some evidence for court.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Well, the opposite. It could be proving you that you
were the fool and that you missed a big advertisement
by specialty winter spiced cranberry sprite here and you just
saw the box and went eh sprott. You were like
freaking out.
Speaker 5 (12:34):
You turned it a little bit down under okay, or
why don't you do what I would do? This is
probably like I don't know this is probably six bucks, right, sure,
I would go and return it.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Okay, Well, I would return it if they drink some drink.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Well, yeah, Hobby had one, and then the daughter had one,
and that's when I was finally alerted. But then they also,
for some odd reason, even though they claimed they didn't
care for it, they wanted to keep two cans because
I said on break just I don't know what they
said for the holidays.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
I don't know what that.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
You don't have anybody else, I have no clue.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
And then why but then why won't you just keep
the ball?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Well, because it's too many for the fridge, so you.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Can keep them out of the fridge, the fridge when
hold on, she has nothing in her fridge, she doesn't
have food in the fridge. You can't keep that small.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I had to go buy a whole thing of regular sprite,
and so now I have a whole thing of regular sprite,
and you have.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
To get and about regular sprites.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Why can't you put that in your pantry?
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Yeah, you can't.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
You don't have to keep them, keep it? Yees can't?
Will you stop?
Speaker 3 (13:30):
You don't have Oh, I don't got room in there?
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Okay, you're Rice. You are a nightmare.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
I've taken on cocoa.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Okay, no, I'm coming guys. Okay, okay, take a picture,
put it on your social see what people think. Oh
hell yeah. Okay, uh, this is really happening you guys.
The end of the penny is here. We have been
hearing about this penny shortage, all that kind of stuff. Well,
the penny is officially done. We're going to see what
(13:59):
is going on with the penny. Coming up next on
the show, A Rock On to five to three,
