Well, thank you, world's most dangerous audience. Uh it was a dance recital yesterday. I guess it was uh at the Clemens Center, a ballet recital. Uh because I I had driven by, I was, you know, doing the weekly wagman's run, and I'm like, what is going on? Like and then I thought, oh, maybe it's a high school graduation. But then I'm like, nope, we're too soon for that, I think. Then I thought the college, well, now it makes sense.

SPEAKER_02

Uh speaking of, so somebody said Pennsylvania schools are done on Friday, June 5th, I believe.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my gosh, you guys are right there. But that would that wouldn't have been the graduation. I was thinking, like, oh, okay, uh, we've already had our first graduation, or it would have been the college. I guess not. I was wrong on both counts.

SPEAKER_02

They had dance recitals all weekend long because they had it Saturday. I told you my friend Britney's daughter was in a dance recital on Saturday night, and then yeah, and then Sunday too. Nice, all right. Busy, busy, busy. I gotta play you this. So there's something that happened in the 90s that was actually a running theme with commercials. This guy is gonna explain what we were always advertising in the 90s, okay?

SPEAKER_00

How wild the 90s were like just advertising the general idea of things. There used to be an ad on television. This is real, just for cotton. Just cotton, just cotton.

SPEAKER_02

Do you remember this? I do. Wait, hold on a second.

SPEAKER_00

There's a jingle. Do you remember the jingle? The touch, the feel, the fabric of then at the end it was just like cotton. It was random.

SPEAKER_02

But then I thought, wait a second, it wasn't so random because this was also the era of like beef, it's what's for dinner. Well, or and then pork. The other white meeting. The other one. Oh my god, guys! They just like stop.

SPEAKER_01

Go back even further than that. I remember as a little kid in the 80s, and I'll never forget this. 3386, you might be able to track with this. My parents would watch all the news shows. Like, this is way before we had 24-hour news. Uh-huh. Uh, and but they would watch like there was let me tell you, Friday night in my house was hell. It was like all the PBS news things that they would have, and they were the dullest news shows you'd ever watched. They were like, Well, it's time for Washington Weekend review. And you're like, oh my God. And they don't run commercials during PBS shows, right? But they never even thought about it. They can have a sponsor for the show. And I'll never forget they had one for aluminum cans. It was Alcoa. Alcoa can't wait. And that I'll never forget the jingle. And that was go back as a kid. So you randomly had cotton, you had aluminum. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. Wait, there was one. Wasn't there one for cheese as well?

SPEAKER_01

Well, there was always milk. But that was that promoted milk in general, not one specific milk like burn dairy. Like it was all no, not even that. It was like, okay, today we have commercials for Calafia. Uh Calafia. I don't know. It's the commercial that's constantly on television for some almond milk. And you have all the different brands. Back in the 90s, it was like milk. Strong bones. Yeah. Cotton. Yeah. White mustache. Yeah. And three, two, one. We're listening to Scott and Allie. Scott and Allie's big three.

SPEAKER_02

I swear to God, though, there was a cheese one. I swear to you, I couldn't. That might have been a cheese one. I wish I could remember how it went, but I swear to God, there was the cheese one. A meteor exploded off the Massachusetts coast Saturday, creating this loud boom heard across the state. NASA said the blast released energy equal to about 300 tons of TNT. Wow. Dynamite. Family visits have partially resumed at Delaney Hall Immigration Detention Center in Newark. After a week of protests and clashes, visits were halted after detainees launched a hunger and labor strike on May 22nd, demanding better conditions and better medical care. Authorities say Jacob Baker of Pahoa, Hawaii, faces nearly a dozen criminal charges, including murder, after three elderly men were found dead on the big island. Baker was arrested after a manhunt involving state and federal officers. Police said he was armed and extremely dangerous. Investigators have not determined any link among the victims. And there's the big three.

SPEAKER_01

Oh you're done.

SPEAKER_02

Wait, I love this one. We were talking about the different random advertising back in the 90s where it'd be like just cotton or pork or beef. I forgot about this one. Thank you so much for this one, 0042. The incredible edible egg. Oh, yeah. Not one brand. No, no.

SPEAKER_01

Not like Eglin's best. No, just eggs.

SPEAKER_02

Let me see if I can find that jingle. I'll get it for you in a second.

SPEAKER_01

We did have a what like we were really just promoting general things. Yes, exactly.
