I am Paul Shear.

I'm an actor, writer, and director. and I have to say, Amy, I've never

seen this movie. But the bubble gun line is something that was pervasive throughout my entire

childhood. And now I finally have a connection for why. I am so happy for you. And I am Amy Nicholson. I am the film critic for the Los Angeles Times. I think the best bubble gum flavor for going on a rampage, if I was going on a rampage, would have to be, you know, the five pack of Hubabubba pink bubble gum flavor, the classic one where you can do the biggest bubble. Amy, is Hubbaubub is still a thing? It is still a thing. I do buy at least one hubbububba every year. Whoa, just one. Well, maybe you're the reason why it's not getting more popular because wherever I go to stores, I'm seeing like, you know, I'm seeing these big, giant packs of gum, like with 40 sticks inside. I just want my simple hubbububba. I saw hubbubba tape, it's not the same thing. No. Tape, not the same thing. It never is. Hubababa still comes in rectangles, which I believe is proper. Are they the ones that had, they had like a filling, but not the squishy filling. Jules was the one when you bit into it, your mouth would be full of liquid. Yeah, and there was the one that also when you bit into it, it had like Dr. Pepper flavor. Ooh. Do you remember that? Like this? No, I just remember one that you bit into it and it just like, your mouth got awash with like, I'm sure, disgusting chemicals. I mean, now that I'm thinking about it, the year that they live came out, I feel like that was an important year for gum.
