When you finally get out of something scary, sometimes you look back and you think, wait

a minute.

What was I so afraid of?

I feel that way when I run out of milk.

Hello, and welcome to the Empty Bowl, a meditative podcast about cereal.

My name is Justin McRoy and I am a cereal enthusiast.

My name is Dan Gubair and I am a cereal stuntman in that I let all the world's worst

cereals blow up in my face so you don't have to try them at home.

We have got a big show for you.

We were absent.

Our usually scheduled release day and I'm sorry for that, but here we are now sharing

in each other's company in the warmth of our hearts.

Yes, that's right.

Dan and I finally installed the heart.

We had talked for so long and we finally did it.

There is no obligation on you though for the next half hour, so we would ask you to

simply relax and enjoy some cereal or don't and just think about cereal.

Dan, a lot of news, this is always a hot time in the cereal biz and this January is

no exception.

Yeah, it almost seems like we're getting more new cereals this January than any January

prior, which is really surprising again just because January is such a month, a hot month

for new cereal news.
