Frosted, flakes and bowls, candles gleaming inside this chilly town of year, at least

on my hemisphere, dance can be hard to find ways to warm up. But for me, I'll tell you what

1:02.3

always does it. And that's a nice hot bowl of cereal. My name is Justin McAroy and welcome

1:10.4

to the Empty Bowl, a meditative podcast about cereal. Me, myself, I'm just a cereal enthusiast.

1:19.1

Me, on the other hand, I am cereal magazines 2022, chexiest man alive, Dan Goubert. It's not

1:27.9

a good year for me. That's huge man. That should really bump the numbers around this place.
