Speaker 1: This is stating, Andrew, they're recording serial Killers.
Speaker 2: That should just be the intro. Keep it as is.
Speaker 2: This is serial Killers.
Speaker 3: So dramatic.
Speaker 2: Thank you Stax for that beautiful intro.
Speaker 3: Well see it got really loud right there, so they
Speaker 3: didn't hear that part.
Speaker 2: Thanks Stacks for that beautiful intro.
Speaker 3: Well now it's over. So now you're just screaming like
Speaker 3: a lunatic.
Speaker 2: Hi, Andrew high scant.
Speaker 3: Excuse me, we didn't even need anything yet. No, welcome
Speaker 3: to serial Killers. It's episode twenty six. Is there anything
Speaker 3: we can't that's it. We're done with making up stupid
Speaker 3: things because you can't do anything.
Speaker 2: Honestly, we shouldn't even be saying what number it is.
Speaker 2: I feel like people listening like, are we going to
Speaker 2: do this if we get up to like episode one
Speaker 2: hundred and twelve?
Speaker 3: Yeah, how awkward?
Speaker 2: Is episode one hundred and twelve sound?
Speaker 3: Why not? Well?
Speaker 2: Okay, well let's keep going with whatever you want.
Speaker 3: And it would it be one hundred to twelve or
Speaker 3: is it one hundred and twelve?
Speaker 2: I say one hundred twel.
Speaker 3: You said one hundred and twelve just before. Well, this
Speaker 3: is you're rolling your eyes. I mean, let's get rolling,
Speaker 3: I want to eat some cereal. So, as we always
Speaker 3: do on Serial Killers, here we will do a classic
Speaker 3: and a new and probably a bonus box because Andrew
Speaker 3: likes to eat three bowls of cereal per episode.
Speaker 2: You make it seem like it's all my doing. You
Speaker 2: are just as much a part of this. I am
Speaker 2: merely a passenger in your vehicle.
Speaker 3: Well, okay, thanks for getting in my vehicle. So which
Speaker 3: would you like to a windows? Because I tape them
Speaker 3: up with black papers and nobody can see in.
Speaker 2: The cereal stays fresher that way.
Speaker 3: All right, So let's head back to nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's the year I was born, it was the.
Speaker 3: Year you were born, and that was also the year
Speaker 3: that this cereal was introduced. Okay, it's an offshoot from
Speaker 3: a very popular yellow boxed cereal corn Pops. No, so
Speaker 3: I'm sure you know what it is, cop boxed the
Speaker 3: Little Little round O's ceios. Yes, what variety can waffles cheerios?
Speaker 3: There's no such thing. Look, you're just gonna have to
Speaker 3: face the fact that we're not doing chicken and waffle
Speaker 3: cereal post. You could send us some if you want,
Speaker 3: but they're not on the shelves anymore so, and I'm
Speaker 3: not spending forty bucks for a box on eBay, but
Speaker 3: I will find you a box, all right. So let
Speaker 3: me go into my cereal sack a.
Speaker 2: Multi grain cheerios. They're my favorite.
Speaker 3: Multi grain cheerios.
Speaker 2: Team Cheerios were my favorite, but multi grain these are.
Speaker 3: Kind of similar, and I love it. They're similar.
Speaker 2: They're delicious.
Speaker 3: So oh shot out by the way to our buddy
Speaker 3: Raj again. Did you see the picture he sent of
Speaker 3: his kids all holding up boxes of cheerios? Yeah, I'm
Speaker 3: sure I'll mess their names up, but uh, Manisha, Son, Jean,
Speaker 3: and Ashana. Did I get it right?
Speaker 2: I think he did?
Speaker 3: They were so cute. There is by the way, Amy,
Speaker 3: My wife loves his kitchen. She's like, look the beautiful
Speaker 3: that kitchen is. She was so mad that our kitchens
Speaker 3: are great.
Speaker 2: I love the memes that we get. It's hysterical.
Speaker 3: I want Vasquez with the memes. Yes, he's out of control,
Speaker 3: but I love them. Now. You know what, the this
Speaker 3: doesn't really need a Scottie shake, but I'm gonna do
Speaker 3: it because there's different types of o's and they probably
Speaker 3: all like hang out with each other. While no one's
Speaker 3: eat eating them, So let's mix them up.
Speaker 2: Okay, what goes on in your mind? Is my question?
Speaker 2: Like you really think the cereal talks to each other?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, Like the whole grain ones are
Speaker 3: like hanging by themselves. They're all in a click.
Speaker 2: There's gentrification in the cereal bait.
Speaker 3: That's right, all right, So now they're all mixed. Let's
Speaker 3: get our cups. I'm gonna we're gonna definitely have to
Speaker 3: get balls because I need the sound of like cereal
Speaker 3: pawing at the balls.
Speaker 1: I did you say powering? Yeah, we need some cereal
Speaker 1: powering in the bowls. I'm scart of ay, listen to you.
Speaker 1: I hope you'll pod me a big bowl. Well, I
Speaker 1: put down my Ciga say.
Speaker 3: Nineteen twenty called Andrew. All right, going into the refrigerator.
Speaker 3: We're gonna get our one percent dairy pure milk.
Speaker 2: Love it.
Speaker 3: I did say we're gonna have lactate for this episode,
Speaker 3: but I still have a full half gallon.
Speaker 2: Here, so my stomach is sticks a middle finger in
Speaker 2: your face.
Speaker 3: We'll probably have lactaids soon as soon as this friends out, Well,
Speaker 3: soon we'll get a sponsor. Maybe lack table. Send us
Speaker 3: coupons for free containers.
Speaker 2: I wish nice. Why do you still pour so much?
Speaker 2: It's we both have agreed.
Speaker 3: You're right.
Speaker 2: The next one do a small amount.
Speaker 3: Oh no, the next one you might need a full cup.
Speaker 2: Corn pops.
Speaker 3: We'll see corn pops. Would you stop?
Speaker 4: Chi?
Speaker 3: I have no idea, what's going on? Cut it out?
Speaker 3: All right? Here we go. Multi grain cheerios, General Mills.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, I'm going to be controversial.
Speaker 3: Okay, four balls in a spoom. That is very controversial.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: I taste a hint of honey nut cheios, just still
Speaker 3: a little bit.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: One of the grains that are in there. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 3: not loving Is it the rye? Maybe? I'm not sure.
Speaker 2: See that's where you're dumb, because it's a delicious cereal.
Speaker 2: I don't understand how you cannot like.
Speaker 3: This and say it's not delicious. But it's only lightly sweetened.
Speaker 2: Oh and the problem is, which is.
Speaker 3: Why we did this one first, because if we did
Speaker 3: the other ones first, woo you would this would have
Speaker 3: no taste.
Speaker 2: I love multi grain cheerios. I actually sometimes eat tube this.
Speaker 3: Wow. So four balls and a spoon from you? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Three balls from me. It's good. What do you make
Speaker 3: faces for?
Speaker 2: You are an idiot.
Speaker 3: Cereal has to be like astronomical to get five balls
Speaker 3: from me, and there's got to be some sort of
Speaker 3: marshmallow in it.
Speaker 2: It just is insane. It doesn't make sense to me
Speaker 2: why you wouldn't rate this higher.
Speaker 3: They're good, but they it has like a blandness to
Speaker 3: it because healthy taste, yes, one of those.
Speaker 2: So the healthy taste is what you don't want.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that loses points for me.
Speaker 2: I'm not surprised.
Speaker 3: Well, let's move on to the new one. Okay, but
Speaker 3: before we do that, we're gonna have to go back
Speaker 3: to the cereal graveyard.
Speaker 2: Is it Rocky Road Cereal?
Speaker 3: It is not Rocky Road Cereal. But back in I
Speaker 3: would say the mid to late eighties, Scary was not
Speaker 3: the only Jones enticing children on his bicycle. Give a listen,
Speaker 3: were you waiting for ice cream Jones and new ice
Speaker 3: cream cone Cereal named ice cream Jones?
Speaker 2: The kids, not ice cream cones. A crunchy new cereal
Speaker 2: for breakfast. The great taste of ice cream cones. I'll
Speaker 2: have vanilla, give me chocolate chip.
Speaker 4: They look like little ice cream cones.
Speaker 3: Taste like them the crunchy part of this nutritious breakfast
Speaker 3: by names ice cream jolts with the great taste of
Speaker 3: ice cream cones, ice cream cone Cereal. Why are your
Speaker 3: eyes like that?
Speaker 2: I there's there's really no words to how I'm feeling
Speaker 2: at the current moment.
Speaker 3: General Mills ice Cream Cone Cereal probably like eighty five
Speaker 3: eighty six or so, it came out, didn't last very long.
Speaker 3: They had a vanilla version and a chocolate chip version,
Speaker 3: and it was delicious. They were little cones and little balls,
Speaker 3: probably like you know, a coca pop.
Speaker 2: Teem like it's going to taste like dry dippin' dots.
Speaker 3: Well they don't have that anymore. This cereal has been
Speaker 3: gone for thirty years.
Speaker 2: Oh so you're not gonna whip out the ice cream Cereal.
Speaker 3: Well not that one now from General Mills. Drumstick Cereal.
Speaker 3: Oh god, what's the matter?
Speaker 2: I mean, I love drumsticks, but I feel like this
Speaker 2: is not going to be good.
Speaker 3: Well, this is not really like ice cream cone cereal
Speaker 3: back in the day version, it's you know, drumstick or
Speaker 3: the ice cream cones that you get in the freezer. Yeah,
Speaker 3: they're made by Nestley. I think so they're probably just
Speaker 3: using the name here Classic Vanilla because they do have
Speaker 3: a mint chocolate chip variety. You know how I feel
Speaker 3: about meta. So I left the mint on the shelf
Speaker 3: and this. For some reason, I've only been able to
Speaker 3: find this at Walmart. I haven't really seen this in
Speaker 3: Walmart is where you go for those types of sites supermarkets.
Speaker 2: Are you looking for something that is going to clog
Speaker 2: your arteries? Head to Walmart?
Speaker 3: Oh? Stop, we love Walmart.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I'm not saying that's a bad thing.
Speaker 2: That's why I get my rice Krispy Trees.
Speaker 3: There are artery clogging foods everywhere.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's all right.
Speaker 3: So let's I mean, if you look at the front,
Speaker 3: it's in it. It's in a waffle cone bowl on.
Speaker 2: The chocolate covered.
Speaker 3: We need to get these. I would like to eat
Speaker 3: cereal out of these, and it appears as if they're
Speaker 3: almost Golden Graham type. What it's supposed to be is
Speaker 3: like broken up cones.
Speaker 2: Cone cereal pieces, ice cream flavored scoops, and cocoa nuggets.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So basically it looks like to me Golden Grahams
Speaker 3: with cocoa puffs. And vanilla cookie crisp cereal all together.
Speaker 3: That's what this looks like to me. On the front
Speaker 3: of the box. Let's see how it tastes.
Speaker 2: It's not a real drumstick, though the real drumstick has
Speaker 2: nuts on.
Speaker 3: It, not all of them really. They make plain ones,
Speaker 3: remember nutty buddies? Can I say what cone?
Speaker 2: What's really disturbing is the back of the box shows
Speaker 2: what it should look like.
Speaker 3: You put it all together.
Speaker 2: It's like a Frankenstein.
Speaker 3: All right, let's open and little you know what. Walmart
Speaker 3: also only carries the family socks box. I just wanted
Speaker 3: the little one. But there's I guess you know, so sorry.
Speaker 3: It has almost no smell whatsoever. It's very strange. All right,
Speaker 3: hold on, I'm being cautiously optimistic.
Speaker 2: This is Yeah. Cautiously optimistic is a good way to
Speaker 2: go into this one. I feel as well.
Speaker 3: Hey, it might be delicious. Let's see.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I doubt it's chocolate toast crunch. And then that
Speaker 2: turned out to be one of my favorites. See, if
Speaker 2: you give it a try, anything can be good.
Speaker 3: All right, So General Mills Drumstick Cereal.
Speaker 2: I don't like the vanilla pieces. I can tell you
Speaker 2: that from now. It's a weird shape.
Speaker 3: Yeah. They look like a smaller cookie crisp. Yeah, it
Speaker 3: kind of tastes like ice cream.
Speaker 2: No, yes, no, you're wrong. Not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna eat it piece by piece. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: do the square piece right now. Hold on the square
Speaker 3: pieces of Golden Gram. Please eat one of those. You'll
Speaker 3: see Okay, square pieces of Golden Gram.
Speaker 2: Oh please, I'm fishing it.
Speaker 3: Definitely is same company Golden Gram, all right. Now the
Speaker 3: chocolate piece please, Okay, this is a cocoa puff. It's
Speaker 3: almost a cocoa puff. Yeah. Not, it's flavorful, same company
Speaker 3: cocoa puffs. Yeah, and whatever this thing is so.
Speaker 2: All the flavor comes from the vanilla.
Speaker 3: Yeah, agreed. And basically these are all General Mill cereals.
Speaker 3: And they just took pieces of and threw them in
Speaker 3: a box and call him drumstick.
Speaker 2: If I were the PR executive or the advertising or
Speaker 2: marketing person who was like, all right, General Mills, what
Speaker 2: does our cereal taste like? And they presented this to me,
Speaker 2: I'd be like, so you took pieces out of every
Speaker 2: other cereal.
Speaker 3: I just threw them together. Yeah, it's it's befit sitting
Speaker 3: in there, seriously that summer intern. He needs to go
Speaker 3: get back to college. Wait.
Speaker 2: I actually saw the funniest meme that I think explains
Speaker 2: a lot of what we eat now on this podcast,
Speaker 2: where it's like if Burger King has started putting burger
Speaker 2: patties and tacos, if Taco Bell has started selling French fries,
Speaker 2: if sour Patch now makes a cereal. It's how you
Speaker 2: know pot is legalized.
Speaker 3: Very true. So let's rate it. I will give it
Speaker 3: three balls. I think it's pretty good. I think it's
Speaker 3: three balls good, two bowls.
Speaker 2: In a spoon. All right, it's not bad, but it's
Speaker 2: not something I would reach for because there's too much
Speaker 2: going on in it. I don't really like that there's
Speaker 2: three different shapes. It throws me off.
Speaker 3: So you would like one shape that makes all the
Speaker 3: flavors together. All right, we'll have to get on.
Speaker 2: That when they give When General mills or posts or
Speaker 2: someone gets in contact with us and it is like
Speaker 2: your podcast has a smashing success. Would you like a
Speaker 2: cereal named after you?
Speaker 3: Yeah? But I want to create it?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Same? I mean, what would your cereal taste like?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, there'd be marshmallows in it. Yeah, there's
Speaker 3: no doubt. I don't want it to be overly sweet,
Speaker 3: but there's gonna be. I think I want chocolate marshmallows.
Speaker 3: See I would use chocolate marshmallows as the basso, but
Speaker 3: so that means more marshmallows than cereal. I don't know
Speaker 3: what the cereal would be. I have to I'm gonna
Speaker 3: think about it.
Speaker 2: I feel like mine would be like a cinnamon toast
Speaker 2: crunch ish lucky charm mix.
Speaker 3: Okay, I gotcha.
Speaker 2: I want like cinnamon charms.
Speaker 3: You know. Wow, that could be. That may have been
Speaker 3: a thing. Who knows. I'm gonna have to do some research.
Speaker 3: So this is talk.
Speaker 2: It sound like you're like about to do a thesis
Speaker 2: whether or not cinnamon charms existed.
Speaker 3: I'm definitely not.
Speaker 2: Let me go do my research. Okay, mister investigator, have
Speaker 2: a good time.
Speaker 3: This is the part of the show where we do
Speaker 3: a bonus box, but in this case, it's.
Speaker 2: A Serial Killers listener request.
Speaker 3: It actually is a listener request. It is this is
Speaker 3: a listener request. You want it, I'll tell you that much.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm not gonna say it again. It's not it
Speaker 2: is it. It's not chicken and waffles.
Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell you what. This cereal was first introduced
Speaker 3: in nineteen fifty, derailing everything nineteen fifty, and it only
Speaker 3: had a mascot for a very short amount of time.
Speaker 3: This cereal first started out as corn pops, Love corn Pops,
Speaker 3: then sugar corn pops, Love corn Pops, then sugar pops,
Speaker 3: then sugar corn pops. Then they had to drop the
Speaker 3: sugar again, and it was corn pops, then just pops,
Speaker 3: and now corn pops. And from nineteen seventy nine this
Speaker 3: was the only mascot that they ever had to my knowledge,
Speaker 3: and his name do you know? Oh you weren't born?
Speaker 3: No big yellow What howdy?
Speaker 4: I'm big yellow and I'm so wild about Kellogg Sugar
Speaker 4: Corn Pops. I'll trade my big yellow bird from a
Speaker 4: bowl of those big yellow pops.
Speaker 3: Trade me that big yellow taste from my big yellow.
Speaker 4: Corn, my golf clubs, my car keys. Hold on, what
Speaker 4: do I need to eat? A bowl of those big
Speaker 4: yellow pops? Godwool, Kellogg Sugar corn Pop cereal plus toast, juice,
Speaker 4: milk and spread. He is a smart start to your day.
Speaker 4: Kellogg Sugar Corn Pops. Those big yellow pops are tops.
Speaker 3: All right? I don't know what that crazy cuckoo bird
Speaker 3: was in the back making sounds. This was just a
Speaker 3: weird seventies thing.
Speaker 2: What does big yellow look like?
Speaker 3: It looked like a text. He's got a big yellow hat,
Speaker 3: almost like curious George is the guy with the big
Speaker 3: yellow hat, a big yellow like Texas hat. But he's
Speaker 3: a short little dude, so sound round kinda. I don't
Speaker 3: know who thinks of these things. There must have been
Speaker 3: a biff in the seventies, a young man super high
Speaker 3: on something. We're in polyester pants, all right, So I'm.
Speaker 2: Gonna go down to the cereal sack corn pop.
Speaker 3: Look at that Kellogg's corn pops. I love corn pop
Speaker 3: sweet crispy crunch. By the way, did you notice how
Speaker 3: he said that sugar corn pops, along with toast and
Speaker 3: spread and juice and milk were a part of this
Speaker 3: complete breakfast. First of all, who's drinking orange juice with cereal?
Speaker 2: I don't know who's also drinking a second glass of milk?
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've been over this before, and.
Speaker 2: The complete breakfast model is why Americans are so fat?
Speaker 3: But why toast?
Speaker 2: Because the standard was like are you eating fourteen thousand
Speaker 2: calories before you go to school.
Speaker 3: But I don't understand the toast with butter, but they
Speaker 3: say spread. They don't even want you to use real butter.
Speaker 3: They want you to use like country crops or whatever
Speaker 3: the hell margarine was in the seventies, you know, I mean.
Speaker 2: This just feels like it's the most unhealthy, Like if
Speaker 2: I'm gonna eat toast with butter after eating corn pops?
Speaker 3: Are those to carbs? Yes? Oh my god, all right,
Speaker 3: so let's get in. They look a little more yellow
Speaker 3: than I remember.
Speaker 2: Wait, can I see them for a second.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the matter.
Speaker 2: I think they made them smaller. Really, when I was
Speaker 2: a kid, I felt like they were huge.
Speaker 3: Well, gotta have my pops, you know. That was the
Speaker 3: big thing in the nineties at eighties too.
Speaker 2: So all right, should I start calling you doctor Scott.
Speaker 3: I'll take doctor B please, Doctor B. Yes, all right,
Speaker 3: we already know what these are going to taste like.
Speaker 2: So this is just you know, our corn pop's bad
Speaker 2: for you.
Speaker 3: Nothing is bad for you. There's no cereal that we
Speaker 3: eat that's bad for you.
Speaker 2: Look in moderation, everything's great, but not meth.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think you should do method moderation. Here
Speaker 3: we go.
Speaker 2: What do you think I'm moving Bible, I'm dumb.
Speaker 3: Great. My favorite thing about corn pops is and I
Speaker 3: remember as a kid, I would love when like the
Speaker 3: center of it would get soggy but the outside state crispy.
Speaker 2: How do they do it?
Speaker 3: I you know what, because there's a little butt crack.
Speaker 3: There's a little butt crack in these also, so it
Speaker 3: allowsts for some of them milk to seep in and
Speaker 3: keeping the outside crunchy at the same time.
Speaker 2: It's amazing because it gets like instantly soggy in the center,
Speaker 2: but the outside sees crunchy and delicious.
Speaker 3: Fantastic.
Speaker 2: Ten out of ten.
Speaker 3: Well, we only have five balls though, so how many?
Speaker 2: I told you five?
Speaker 3: Bowl? You did?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I wasn't listening, clearly, When do you ever listen
Speaker 2: to me?
Speaker 3: Four balls for me? For Kellogg's corn pops. It's a classic,
Speaker 3: It's delicious, been around for almost seventy years. We all
