Basic 4 is so good. They’re still making it because of me.
Fuckin oatmeal squares are so good. Milk permeates them in a very particular way that you can’t get anywhere else.
I’m the person buying all the Crispix!!!
My cat is not interested in human food except for a bizarre weakness for granola 🤷🏼♀️
“Cap’ntalize”
That Lucky Charms ice cream at Salt & Straw truly is perfect
what a wonderful podcast. both dan and justin have very calming energy. always helps me relax when im frustrated or stressed
This is so so realixing and helps me sleep :)
These epsiodes are so pleasing and relaxing. They help me sleep
Except it was close to the solstice, not the equinox...
it's so sad to listen to this podcast while not in America/Canada, I'm Norwegian and the most exotic cereal I can get is like coco puffs or cheerios. but I'll live through these lovely cereal bois
A Raisin Bran Crunch Pop Tart would remind me too much of a Fig Newton.
does anyone know what song they play in their episodes?
i bought a box of golden grahams because of this
this podcast is one of the best things that has ever happened to me 🥣💖😴
I’m imagining a live show of this where the auditorium is just empty, no chairs and everybody brings a sleeping bag or something like that
My only complaint is that you can't get a lot of these cereals in the UK; I have cereal envy 😭
Oh my gosh I thought Justin was kidding about the interview! Look up "Justin McElroy Talks Blueberry Muffin Tops".
The cereal nostalgia bombs and genuine, nuanced reviews make me REALLY hungry, but also make me see my faves in a new light.
This is so pure and good, I love it
