Out in the lane, the snow is either glistening or not glistening.

I can't control where you're listening to this.

There may not even be a lane nearby.

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

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

And my name is Dan Gubert, and I'm a serial thought leader, and that primary thought of mine is, I really like it that's great man I'm so glad you know it's funny about that I like it too whoa you're challenging me as the thought

I'm into it in a big way and you're gonna prove that in the next half hour

with news we're gonna talk about some of the cereals that we've been trying and

Things are, you know, January is usually a big time for serials,

but things are a little bit slower right now.

What is going on out there, though, Dan?

Tell me.
