- 2:46Speaker 2: Just just remember, tricks are for kids.
- 2:49Speaker 3: Why can't the rabbit have trick?
- 2:51Speaker 2: I never understood that, because the rabbit can have tricks,
- 2:54Speaker 2: because what the rabbit doesn't know is that tricks are
- 2:56Speaker 2: poisonous to to rabbits. We're trying to save you stir
- 3:02Speaker 2: saving them all the time.

- 3:16Speaker 1: Now I didn't get a chance to try these. Someone
- 3:19Speaker 1: text in and says, have you tried the birthday cake
- 3:21Speaker 1: fruity pebbles or cinnamon pebbles? Now, cinnamon pebbles. That sounds good,
- 3:27Speaker 1: sounds great because they used to have a long line
- 3:31Speaker 1: of different cap'n Crunch cereals instead of just cap'n Crunch
- 3:35Speaker 1: and oops, al berries and crunch berries.
- 3:37Speaker 2: No wait, pebbles are just rice crispies right, No, they're
- 3:40Speaker 2: a little different, a little different. They're better.
- 3:42Speaker 3: I prefer a pebble to as you have that the
- 3:45Speaker 3: cocoa crispies.
- 3:46Speaker 2: And then the well, you should make rice crispy tretes
- 3:49Speaker 2: out of fruit pebbles.
- 3:50Speaker 1: But as far as cinnamon cereal goes, they had Jean
- 3:55Speaker 1: Lafitte's cinnamon crunch. Remember the pirate who is the bad
- 3:58Speaker 1: guy for cap'n Crunch. That was a good cereal that
- 4:02Speaker 1: hasn't come back, not comeback.
- 4:05Speaker 2: He's a you know, captain Crunch. And I think I'm
- 4:08Speaker 2: sure people have pointed this out before. Maybe we've pointed
- 4:11Speaker 2: it out. He's a captain, but he's wearing a uniform
- 4:14Speaker 2: that signific signifies he has much higher stature than a captain.
- 4:18Speaker 1: Hmm.
- 4:18Speaker 2: I mean he's got admiral Crunch. Yeah, he looks like admiral.
- 4:22Speaker 2: He should be admiral, not captain Crunch. He's got a captain.
- 4:26Speaker 2: It's captain, it's captain captain.
- 4:28Speaker 1: Maybe that's the difference.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Could be, it could be that's that's that's the distinguishing.
- 4:32Speaker 2: That's the uniform that a captains.
- 4:34Speaker 1: And all I know is is that he used to
- 4:35Speaker 1: have a boat full of children and that was just
- 4:39Speaker 1: that was always disturbing. And his full name is Horatio
- 4:44Speaker 1: Magellan Crunch. Yes, yes, naval rank of captain.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Hey, I heard today somewhere early this morning that James

- 4:58Speaker 2: tell the animated that's when they first the Star Trek animated.
- 5:03Speaker 2: I don't know if that was the case.

- 5:22Speaker 1: eyes and everything, and Gary dug a grave and made
