The

The You look out onto the sea and it looks like it is churning and that is just a question of perspective

because what you don't notice is that beneath the churn just a couple of inches below is calm

the sea is calm the deeper you go the calmer it gets. The other thing

you didn't notice is that the sea is made of milk and it is sweet to drink. Hello and welcome to

the empty bowl, a meditative podcast about cereal. My name is Justin McElroy. I'm a serial enthusiast. And my name is Dan

Gobert, and I'm something of a serial astral projectionist, because while my corporeal body may be here,

my astral body is how to Trader Joe's buying their raisin brand clusters. Now, Dan, we are in something of an empty bowl renaissance,

and I hope that that is not out of line for me to say, but it's all a buzz on the internet.

It's a brave new day. Tell me all about it. Yes. As we mentioned at the end of the last

episode, while a lot of people might have been

asleep already, we're pleased to announce that there is an empty bowl Patreon now you can

subscribe to and become a patron of.

So we used to have it through like anchor that then got bought out by Spotify who just

turned off all the listener support feature for

arcane reasons that nobody really understands.

But we wanted to reopen an outlet for people to support our show if they so choose.

Obviously not expected. Your presence here is more than enough support.

But if you want to give back, we have two tiers, kind of like a dollar a month,

tip of the hat, support the show tier, and then for $5 a month, you can become a bowl benefactor

and unlock exclusive bonus episodes of what we've been calling the half empty bowl.

I call it that because it's primarily just hosted by me, being the less busy one here, I would say.
