The

The The captain has fallen overboard.

The seas are turbulent, and the first mate is just trying to keep the crew from mutining,

so he has hired a plucky privateer to help right the ship. No, I'm just kidding. Justin is just really busy right now,

so I've invited a guest host to come host the empty bowl with me today. And my name is Dan

Gubert, and I'm your serial co-captain. And I am Gabe Fonseca, and I guess I am aboard this SS Guppy as another co-captain,

or maybe a first mate. I don't know if we can legally call our ship that. The captain might be on us.

I feel like we've given him enough props over the years that he's probably okay with it.

Honestly, so true.

I don't think he's listening anyway.

But you never know.

So yeah, I got to always remember how to introduce my own show since I don't normally do it.

But welcome aboard the Empty Bowl.

This is a meditative podcast about cereal, so we're going to be talking about

cereal and doing it very calmly, very chilly, and very relaxingly. So if you're using this show

to fall asleep, I hope your pillows are freshly laundered. I hope your linens are of a very high thread count.

And I hope the memory foam of your mattress is perfectly sculpted to the shape of your body.

And as for everyone else who isn't listening to this to fall asleep, well, should you

start to feel drowsy, please avoid operating any

heavy machinery. So as always here on the empty bowl, we're going to talk new serial news,

new serial reviews, and just get a little wacky with it in the third segment. It is, you know,

once again not the craziest time of the year for new
