She was supposed to be here at the Spoonies.

She was, I know, she had her dress on and everything, and then she got a text from her husband that she was supposed to be somewhere like a half an hour ago, and she said, oh my god, I'm so sorry, and she left.

You're just like, okay, okay, because I like what I like and I don't think it's that big of a deal.

But did you notice that all of mine are either chocolate or have marshmallows.

Yeah, that's true, right, So that's me. Hey guys, oh god, you heard that. That was Scott's slapping his billin. All right, So I'm about to announce the nominees for Cereal of the Year. This is the classic Cereal of the.

Who's accepting in his place?

You know, we'll just give it to somebody backstage.

Here you go, this other leprechauns bounce on around. Well that's great because you know what Lucky Charms truly is a five bowl cereal and I love it.

I agree.

That's my What do you call it the island cereal or whatever it is your desert islands here, desert island, that's it. Five holes Lucky Charms, very good, congratulations. Oh oh, the General is here to accept General Mills. Everybody, General Generals?

Where I happened to accept this award, Great General Miles years ago. Isn't a centorium.

General Mills did not have a set.

I did not do that, so just screw it.

So anyway, in the last episode, I mentioned how this episode was going to make Cereal Killers full circle and I tell you why. Yeah, Okay, well, I'm gonna go down to the cereal sack. Okay, now do you remember the cereals we did in the very first episode of Serial Killers.

Uh there was banana cream frosted flakes, yes, and another one cool so I'm gonna go down to the cereal sack.

Now this I would call this maybe a second cousin of frosted Flakes banana cream, same company. It's Kellogg's bananas are involved. Okay, all right, so this is brand new Special K bananas. Oh yeah, I know we're not huge fans of the bananas. I don't like banana flavored anything. Yeah, but these are actually real banana slices or chips or whatever you want to call them.

I don't like the chips.

You know this secret squirrel Joel over a chopra furry Joel texted me the other day. No, he shaves. Oh, and he needs to shave. Actually, he texted me.

Why are you noticing if somebody needs to shave?

Can you see the picture that I posted with him? He needs to like shave that beard.

You don't like that?

It's all right, but it's getting unkempt.

Maybe when he puts on his furry helmet it okay, listen.

So anyway, he texted me a picture and this came in Banana Special K and the other one that's coming. So this is a two new Cereal episode. It's a special episode.

Here are at the spoonies. We're real excited about tonight.

So this needs a Scottie Shae because there's banana chunks or slices or pieces or spoonies.

Were an actual award show, let it be known that during the commercial breaks, you'd be seeing trailers for new cereals.

Yeah, you would, the highly anticipated cereals of twenty twenty. A teaser trailer for the new Eggo Cookies and cream cereals. Wow, is that a thing?

I don't know?

I thought I don't know because you know nothing about it, sir.

No, I'm just teasing cereals.

Look, man, you're just along for the ride.

I guess you just spilled cereal all over the board.

I took one of your banana chips because I didn't get any. The banana to cereal ratio, I must say, is off. There needs to be more bananas in here.

But I just know I'm not gonna like this. You know what? Positive Outlook, maybe there's some way I'll enjoy this.

I'm not gonna I'll tell you that. But let's see.

We have our a two milk still not a sponsor two milk.

No, you know, Actually, I'm sorry. We did get a milk sponsor. What yeah, kind of what do you mean? You know our good friend Sam who works in the back there. Yeah, she gave me a holiday card and inside that holiday card were coupons for one, two, three, four five gallons of milk.

That's so nice and so thoughtful.

So thank you producer, Samper sponsoring cereal killers for one, two, three, four five weeks.

Sam was on episode fifty. If you want to go back and listen.

That's right. She was, all right, here we go special ca banana from Kellogg's.

Weird Banana chips. Oh h huh. You know, never judge a cereal by its box. I will. I actually like this three bowls in a spoon, and I'll tell you why. It tastes like when my mom used to make rice crispies and banana.

Yeah, but those were real bananas cut right from the banana. I was have dried whole grain wheat, rice sugar banana chips. I'm sorry. I like this two balls.

No, three bowls in a spoon. And I think if anything rice crispies. If you're watching or listening, I guess you should make rice crispies and banana cereal.

Snap crackle pop, don't do it.

Okay, they were supposed to be presenters tonight, but you know they dropped out.

Somebody stepped on them. Oh oh god, whoops?

All right, well, is that what the ambulance outside was for?

Back to the countdown now, I have to say we have way more five ball cereals than we do zero bowl cereals in all seventy episodes plus bonus. The only cereal that you gave absolutely zero balls to was chocolate peanut butter cheios.

That was the nastiest thing I've ever had.

And for me, peanut butter and cocoa pebbles did not like that. Puffins peanut butter and chocolate. Somehow you gave that a little. I gave it nothing. The cereal school cereals were absolutely disgusting, but you still gave them a ball and a spoon. I don't understand that.

No, I gave it a bowl each.

You gave one of them a ball, and you gave one of them a spoon.

To be honest, when it comes to the worst of the worst, I feel you can have a lot of great cereals. I don't mind giving five balls out, but to be the worst, like the actual worst. It's got to be rancid.

And the Golden tumberk was disgusting.

I disagree. I think that's a really great trance position entire. Next award at the Spoonies.

Oh, okay, which award is it?

This is the nominees for the Worst Cereal of the Year or the Bulp All Vomit Award.

Bulp.

The nominees are Life Gingerbread Spice. That was pretty gross. Yeah, the Cereal School Coco, the Cereal School Cinnamon bun.

They get two nominations, banana.

Cream, frosted flakes, chocolate, peanut butter, Cheerios and puffins peanut butter and chocolate. And the winner is see now you should play the drum roll. I don't know how. Okay, wow's a tie for the Cereal School Coco.

Congratulations all right, Cereal School, congrats for losing, because you suck.

That was the nastiest cereal. That was so bad. The taste of it at first seems good and then all of a sudden, it goes bad really really quickly.

And here's the thing. Danielle was supposed to be here and I had some for her to try. She totally would have done her block so you guys missed out on that apologize.

Let it also be known that the box that we got from Garrett, Yeah, with the cereal school in it, there's oil on it now and we have no idea how it got where it's leaking from. What is that doing to the insides of our bodies?

By the way, you know, I wanted to play something because yesterday you and I were talking. Danielle would have been great for this because you have no clue. But I sang a TV theme song from the eighties yesterday and you're like, oh, isn't that that one? Remember this?

Dreams Working Girls?

No, it's how does this? How about this? If I show you this, does that mean anything? I'm showing him a script. L It's you never would have gotten dude. Yeah, and surely the eighties. No, I know you weren't alive.

No, but I know the theme song. Wasn't the theme song? Super popular?

That was the theme song?

I know.

That's why I knew the theme song.

I just forgot it was.

You know.

It was a spin off from uh, the one with the guy I'm sorry they lived in a house? Three's Company.

No, yeah, really, the fawns.

The funds was in Laverne and surely.

No Laverne and surely was on Happy Days?

Really? Yes?

And then it was a spin. No, I used to watch again.

Gary Marshall was the producer and he was he was uh LaVerne's for real in real life, Kenny Marshall.

Let me tell you something. Did not know that? So that's a but b Happy Days was on at Nicked night?

It was, Yeah, so that's how you know it?

Yeah?

I actually watched Happy Days not from the eighties.

No, No, because again wasn't a lie.

I'm sorry. I one more? How about this one?

Nothing?

His night Rider?

No?

They watch, No, they watch after Dark.

Little furry alien Alf.

Yeah, ol never saw Alf. Alf was not on Nicket Night.

You know what planet he was from?

Mars.

I'll give you a thousand dollars if you can tell me weasel wob meil mac. So you didn't know anything about that show?

No, Alf was one of those that I did not know about. Why do you have Alf notepads? What does it say? Andy? Millennials know nothing about eighties TV?

That's right, because I was a proud member of the ALF fan club.

What yes, look at the bottom.

I can't look at the very bottom.

Oh my god, ELF fan club.

Yeah, I found my old Alpha fan club packet and it had this notepad and a record.

How old were you in nineteen eighty seven, eleven or twelve? Wow?

Yeah, he even had his own song called You're the One That's out of this World.

No, I actually did know that, because whenever they do like worst songs ever to chart on the Billboard, Elf.

Is always on.

Man.

Yeah, he always wanted to eat the cat.

Didn't it end really depressing? Like Elf gets like taken hostage by the CIA.

Or something like that. Yeah, yeah, Okay, anyway, you know this is about cereal. Sorry, let's get back to the spoonies.

We did. We gave away on the worst cereal.

Don't you have one more?

I have two more awards? Okay, I'd like to hear the next word place. This one is for the William Brimley Diabetes Award. William Oh, sorry, Wilford.

Hold on, I'm Wilford Brimley and I've had diabetes for about twenty years.

Yes, thank you, Wilford.

He's just checking in.

This is for the most sugary Diabetes PHILM Cereal of the Year. It's the right thing to do thank you again, Wilford. I can't read the nominees over drum.

Roll, Oh, okay, go ahead.

The nominees for the Wilford Brimley Diabetes Award are sour Patch Kid Cereal ooh, Mermaid Cereal yes, Cocoa Puffs with marshmallows okay, Unicorn Cereal yes, and Ryan's World Serial left one out? Which one?

The Millville Peanut butter and jelly puffs?

Oh my god?

That was so they get honorable mention. Yes, okay, so here we go.

And the award for the Wilfrid Brimley Diabetes Award goes too. Coco Puffs with marshmallows. Very good, so much. Coco Puffs with marshmallows. I loved the cereal. I think we both gave it five bowls. Yeah, that's the off season count choculas. So good, Yeah, very good. It came in the big bag lots of sweets. You should not eat that every day.

Oh congratulations. You got a spoon.

Spoon and a uh what is it an insulin pen?

Yes? All right, so I'm gonna go back down to the cereal sack. We'll take a break from the spoonies.

Coming back the biggest award of the night. This is the new Cereal of the Year award.

Now, the very first cereal that we did after banana cream. Do you remember what it was in episode one of Serial Killers?

A brand of some sort, a flake of some sort.

It was not a brand, It was not a flake. It was a ball cocoa puffs.

No, I couldn't tell you. Captain Crunch, and Andrew Crunch, Andrew what?

How do you not remember these things?

We went to a tab of how much cereal we've gone through this year. I think it's over two hundred. It's well over two hundred. Okay, about two hundred and twenty two cereals. I don't remember, but the very first episode I don't go back.

I bet you Omar remembers. He knows everything about this podcast. He's a pretty lotar listeners. They tweet us all the time.

Check this tricks.

So Tricks was the very first cereal and secret Squirrel Joel sent me this one as well. For some reason, Shopwright is really on the ball and they're getting all the new cereals first, and I thank you very much.

Shopright.

Tricks Troll's World Tour with Marshmallows it's the very first Tricks variety ever to have marshmallows, and we have it right here. Oh well, they're just starting to trickle into stores now so you can find it. It's in the purple box. And the Tricks Rabbit has the trolls hair on, looks very confused.

It's a shame with the trolls. I feel like back when I was a kid, at least.

They didn't look like five years ago.

Are you serious? Do you know? I still think the two thousands were like five years ago, and it turns out that they're now over ten years ago.

I know that nineteen ninety in just a couple of days will be thirty years ago.

Don't remind me that my thirtieth birthday is going to be in two years.

Oh you're so old.

I feel you're going to hit thirty. Oh my god. Why is it that I can't have anything on this show when I say I feel old? Okay, here we go.

That's our Lenny mud Ball. Thank you very much for supporting us. Thank you, Lenny Mud, Lenny Mud appreciate that.

Thank you to our incredible sponsors.

Lenny Mud, Lenny Mud and a crunch Cup and everybody else. That didn't give us any money, but sent us product, and we'll take it.

I love it, especially the guy who sent us Reptar cereal that turned out to be Vince. Remember that at all the spoons. It's so funny.

Every time somebody sees serial killer spoons on Amazon, we get like forty spoons.

We've got forty spoons here so far.

I love it.

Thank you though. I love our collections of spoons.

Yeah, everybody's so nice.

Did I pour you cereal?

No?

You can have it from the ball What No, because then I have to go clean the bowl. Oh wow, you're a mess today. You are a hot mess, like a dumpster fire of it.

Let's do the tricks with whole milk, because it's till I got Oh. I thought you were about to say heavy cream. No, that's scary.

Can I do it with the oat milk?

No, we don't do that. I stole that from the coffee cart.

Oh okay, you go. You've gone to ceiling now.

Every time they bring the coffee cart up here, I take the leftover milk. I have to get it somehow. All right, Ready, tricks, trolls, marshmallows. Okay, so it's tricks the balls are multi colored, and I don't know what the marshmallows are supposed to be. They're just kind of cubes, marbleized cube, maybe diamonds.

Can you imagine speaking of diamond in the Cereal commercial they said and new with marbleized cubes.

Well that's really what they are. I give this four bowls. It's not bad to me. It's just tricks. Marshmallows thrown it. The marshmallows add nothing. I enjoy tricks three bowls in a spoon It is a little overly sweet. I'm gonna be honest, and you're not gonna belie this. I don't think this needs marshmallows. No, I love marshmallows, but this one just kind of doesn't. Tricks does not need marshmallows. Let's get that out there.

But maybe an early contender for the twenty twenty Spoonies.

That's right, because it will kind of bleed over.

He's missed the cutoff for the award show.

That's right. They couldn't be nominated. They were not eligible, of course. All right, so is there one more award?

Oh? Yeah, it's the biggest award of the entire night.

It is.

Yeah.

Oh what is it.

This is a cereal of the year, the new cereal of.

The overall, the new cereal of the year.

Well, it's the new cereal of the year, so we could just go with overall new.

Hostess, Twinkie Cereal, Yes, Cocoa Puffs with marshmallows okay, honeymads More Cereal all right, and the winner is Eggo Waffle Cereals, says you, that thing is too long. What an incredible honor for the biggest award of the night, Maple Cereal.

How did it win?

You chose that?

No? I don't like it.

No, everybody loved it.

Yeah, this is a very one sided award show.

Accepting the award on their behalf is missus Andrew.

Yeah.

I've eaten at least two full boxes of it by myself. You've made me buy those boxes, yeah, with a coupon that you printed out for me, and I gave you money for that, didn't I I don't know if you did or not. Okay, Well, if amael you after the show. All right, cool, it really is a great cereal. I have to say it's one of those that I would eat every day if I could.

Did you make a list of the cereals that we vomited from or at least one person vomited from that was a part of the War Cereals of the Year? Okay, because I'm looking at my list here, Danielle vomited from the All Brand. I think we both vomited from Cereal School and also from the Gingerbread Life, Yeah, and the Tumeric. Other than that, I don't remember really spitting anything else out.

No, there wasn't too many to spit out, all right, so we had four spits.
