It can feel like that sometimes an empty bowl.

We all have our own empty bowls.

What we propose is the important thing is how you fill them with cereal, with hope, with

friendship, and empty bowl is really nothing but possibility.

Hello and welcome to the empty bowl, a meditative podcast about cereal.

My name is Justin McElroy and I'm a cereal enthusiast.

My name is Dan Goubert and I am a cereal sailor, both in the sailor moon since as well as

the more traditional sailing sea faring since, especially because it's very windy where

I am right now.

I don't know if it's going to pick up on the audio track at all, but if it does, we can

just say it's contributing to our nautical ambiance here.

I love a cool breeze.

We already have windswept noises built in, right?

So it can just add, it's just another layer of sonic pleasure.

What we ask of you is very little.

We just would like you to relax and try to focus on this, this cereal.

Give your brain a break and we're just going to talk about cereal and don't be troubled

by this.

The occasional breakfast adjacent food every once in a while will mention pop tarts but

don't let that disturb the stillness of your mind.

I've been sleeping very poorly lately and podcasts have been a great help to me.

So I feel like this is my, the way I can pay the universe back cosmically and we hope
