Today we've got an extra fun quiz for all you people out there who think you can't

be fooled by anything.

The worlds of food and fashion are loaded with brands, named after people.

You know, Eddie Bauer, Prince Machabelli, Chef Boyardee.

Are these real people or are they just phantoms cooked up by the marketing departments?

Today we're going to find out just how many you know.

Fuller fictional is coming up right now, Unscuptoid.

Hey everyone, Brian here, a quick favor.

We're conducting an audience survey.

We'd be really grateful if you could take just a few minutes and answer our survey.

This is the kind of thing that's sort of an engineering and marketing necessity to make

the whole free podcast ecosystem flourish.

So please check it out.

So surveys are fun.

You get to talk about yourself.

Please visit survey.prx.org slash Skeptoid to take the survey today.

That's survey.prx.org slash SKEPTOID.

Thanks.

You're listening to Skeptoid.

I'm Brian Dunning from Skeptoid.com.
