The Consumers

Gatorade! We have Christmas lights. Tim gets wacky at the first Consumers photo shoot and Sean and Greg are reluctant to play along. We remember the first Consumers studio and the practice episodes. Sean has a legend of a dumb moment. We talk about Logan Paul’s sports drink and it gets goofy. We finally all agree on something, and it is gum. Fun facts take a strange turn but, baby, is it worth it.

Greg and Sean reflect on their time in Seattle, sharing memories of an in-flight emergency. Sean crushed it with his t-shirt sales but hilariously struggles with locating hotel fridges. We dive into the history of Fritos, even pondering if Mahatma Gandhi would have been a fan. The word "mercurial" makes an epic return. A debate arises about the ultimate snack: KitKats with Jif or walking tacos. Plus, the guys revisit some classic characters in a showdown between "Venezuelan Tim" and "Deadpan Sean."

Greg and Sean spent 12 hours in a car together. Something had to give, and it did. Filmmaker Michael Moore makes a surprise appearance on the pod. We think something is a little fishy with Monaghan’s first date. Sean had a crush on lady that he used to delivered pizzas to, and he gives out her address. We finally learn the origin of Sean’s two-dollar bill habit. More “Walk to Remember” talk.

It’s the Honey Baked Ham episode. We promise, we will eventually get there. We’ve got decorations from Kate Convy? Greg stutters through an apology to Williams Sonoma. A lot of “you’re a bad driver” accusations flying around the studio. We receive inside information on the Honey Baked Ham holiday rush from an officer of the law. Momentous occasion. We link Honey Baked Hams to Flashdance, the movie. Sean’s sneaks in a word of the day. The Consumers have received their first swag. We announce the big Sean O’Brien Lego Space Shuttle winner. Finally, the much awaited explanation of the logo.

We kick off this week with a special guest, Dustin Nickerson. One host is running late to the show, and you’ll never guess who it is. Greg argues that Dan Gable is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, while Dustin questions how hard wrestling really is. Tim and Greg reminisce about spotting the most attractive archaeologist. The guys delve into the history of Pringles, as Tim reflects on the complexities of Battlefield Earth. Sean sparks a Pickleball debate, and Greg experiments with some new accents. Meanwhile, the Pringles facts keep the guys cracking up.

Before they get to Legos, the team examines Sean’s frog water and his basic human rights.  Deep dive on “guy who turns his yard into a parking lot twice a year.”  Right as Greg gets  into history, the discussion detours into a major Dan Fogelberg controversy. Tim’s got a duck joke.    The world doesn’t remember Kiddicraft, but they should. Greg tries out a clipboard.  Watch out for Brown Legos.

This week our hosts explore all things Starbucks. Sean and Greg recap their Detroit trip. The history of Starbucks gets a deep dive, and Greg recounts his years in LA. The user comments keep rolling in and leave the guys cracking up. 

Cheescake Factory is the next brand on the docket and we have an insider in the studio. Major “word of the day” drama. Sean owns up to some missteps on the KC trip. Cookie Dough adulting and The National Park Service is getting in on everything. Greg takes a walk on the corny side, more precisely, the corn mixed with zucchini and red onion side.

The Oreo Episode is here! Before the team even mentions the word, “cookie”, Sean drops a bomb that may forever change the landscape of the podcast. The Biscuit Wars involved thievery, sickness, family drama, betrayal and much, much more. In a world where tales of clueless Starbucks employees are the norm, Tim’s got a good one. The people have spoken and we have a Sandlot look-alike in the studio.

The boys celebrate Southwest Airlines, but first take hits from all sides for the episode numbering mishap. Greg ruined a party, almost broke up a marriage and may have gotten some furniture workers fired. Greg attempts to explain airline deregulation.  Sean and Greg love Southwest and Herb Kelleher.  Everyone watches Herb arm wrestle and smoke.  Tim struggles to pronounce Chivas.  Tim is appointed “Keeper of Comments” and the guys hear the good news/bad news from the people. 00:00 - Introduction 00:01:23 - Greg addresses the episode numbering controversy 00:04:17 - Greg had a very dumb and bad weekend 00:16:53 - Southwest History 00:39:35 - CEO Armwrestling 00:42:53 - Bar Refaeli on a plane 00:44:34 - Pretty fun facts 01:00:55 - Bad day for Southwest 01:15:03 - Overdue thanks Subscribe and Like to see more - https://bit.ly/NateYTSubscribe Hosts: Greg Warren (https://www.instagram.com/GrockWarren) Tim Convy (https://www.instagram.com/TimConvy) Sean O'Brien (https://www.instagram.com/thatSeanOBrien) Podcast produced by Nate & Laura Bargatze Adrian Kulp, Greg Warren, Randy Cash, and Martin Murphy Art design by Dan Wade and Lane Twellman Music by Kevin Bowers #TheConsumerspod #whitecastle #Comedy #Podcast #NatelandEntertainment #southwest #airlines
