Hey podcast listeners, you are about to hear an episode from our archives.

It's actually one of the most popular episodes we've ever put out.

It's called How to Save One Billion Dollars Without Even Trying.

Now, I'm not sure why this episode was so popular.

It may be that people just really, really liked it or it may be, as my friend James Altiger often says,

Good lawyer. And then the store brand sandwiches are shop-right peanut butter creamy. They put

their adjective last, peanut butter creamy, and strawberry preserves, shop-right. And the bread is

identical. It's bimbo. So really, all we want is for you to eat one of each and tell us which one

you prefer and why. It's pattern plate. It's the one. It tastes nuttier, more honest stuff in this one.

Yeah, less sugar. A little more texture. More texture and therefore better or therefore worse.

I like a little texture so I'm gonna say better. I liked the border and I thought it was the premium

advantage. I liked the border one for whatever reason. It just tasted slightly more delicious and
