Everybody's got an opinion.
Speaker:Every Californian, Virginian in Virginia, it's so hard to tell
Speaker:who to cho and who to ignore.
Speaker:Someone's gotta settle The Score.
Speaker:Trey and Chelsey will help you choose who's win, which.
Speaker:Hello.
Speaker:Well, hello and welcome to Review That Review.
Speaker:We are the podcast that is dedicated to reviewing reviews.
Speaker:That is Chelsey Donn,
Speaker:and that is Trey Gerrald.
Speaker:But together
Speaker:we are the Review Queen.
Speaker:Here at Review.
Speaker:That Review, we believe in balance, the good, the bad, and the kvetchy.
Speaker:So it's only fair that we take a moment to fetch it out.
Speaker:Trey, would you like to
Speaker:Lodge A
Speaker:Complaint?
Speaker:I'm already mad.
Speaker:I'm already mad.
Speaker:You
Speaker:already know.
Speaker:The exhale starts
Speaker:because I noted this on okay.
Speaker:Three days ago, and I was like, oh.
Speaker:My God, this is a zero to 1000 for me.
Speaker:Mm. Okay.
Speaker:I don't know how in the 205 episodes, this has not been lodged yet.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:I'm gonna try to not, um, be concerned with how I'm gonna be received with this.
Speaker:Mm, got it.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:I moonlight in customer service, so I feel like I have a right
Speaker:to, to complain about this today.
Speaker:I need to Lodge A Complaint against.
Speaker:Not doing your job title.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:I'm getting get more specific.
Speaker:Hold on.
Speaker:My prime example is when I walk into my gym,
Speaker:there
Speaker:are people whose job description is greeter.
Speaker:You know what?
Speaker:They don't ever do greet you.
Speaker:Wait.
Speaker:I'm like, I am.
Speaker:I'm not playing this up.
Speaker:I am so angry.
Speaker:I need to chill out.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:It makes me so angry because today in our electronic world,
Speaker:they're not signing you in.
Speaker:Mm. They're not looking at the computer monitor.
Speaker:It's not even like a key chain anymore.
Speaker:It's an app.
Speaker:It just, I scan myself.
Speaker:Sometimes they're typing on the computer, so I don't even, I
Speaker:think the whole scanning is like.
Speaker:A conspiracy anyway.
Speaker:I don't think anyone's being,
Speaker:when you are hired to work a front desk to greet people and you never say hello, what
Speaker:are you doing with your life, your job?
Speaker:I'm, I'm sorry.
Speaker:I need to chill.
Speaker:I'm, it makes me so angry because I'm not gonna say hi first.
Speaker:I'm not doing your job for you.
Speaker:I'm employed and I do things that I don't like.
Speaker:I make money from things I didn't dream of as an 8-year-old.
Speaker:So I can have sympathy for you that you probably did not dream as an 8-year-old
Speaker:of working at the front desk at a gym, working as a concierge at a hotel,
Speaker:working as a greeter at a restaurant.
Speaker:Maybe that wasn't your dream, right?
Speaker:But your job is.
Speaker:Screening.
Speaker:Why do you not say hello?
Speaker:I'm not doing your job for you.
Speaker:I'm not saying hello first.
Speaker:The, if I were to make a tabulation of the amount of times I've said hello, when
Speaker:I enter the gym that I've been going to for four and a half years, I've probably
Speaker:said hello 20 times in the four years that I've gone because they don't say hello.
Speaker:They are talking to themselves.
Speaker:They're on their phone.
Speaker:They're.
Speaker:Hibbing over here with like the one Broy guy that is there every
Speaker:day and they're friends with.
Speaker:I recognize I am not a warm person at the gym.
Speaker:I have a lot of trauma from being raised gay in the south, so I am
Speaker:not trying to engage with anyone who presents as straight male.
Speaker:Um, so I keep my head down.
Speaker:I recognize I may not be putting off an energy of wanting to be
Speaker:said hello to, but it's your job.
Speaker:Your job is to say hello.
Speaker:And my response is supposed to be, hi.
Speaker:And then that's it.
Speaker:That's all I Why are you a greeter and you don't greet?
Speaker:That's my complaint.
Speaker:It's your job description.
Speaker:I'm not saying hi first.
Speaker:It's your job.
Speaker:You shouldn't be on your phone if you're being paid.
Speaker:Period.
Speaker:That's its own.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:Sorry you guys.
Speaker:I don't know why I'm so angry.
Speaker:It makes me so angry.
Speaker:I, I get it.
Speaker:'cause it's like, what are you hired to like observe me walking
Speaker:in the door and not say hello?
Speaker:Like, why are you even there either?
Speaker:Either we're gonna do this as a robot thing and I'm just gonna scan
Speaker:myself in and there's not gonna be anybody looking at me in this moment.
Speaker:Or if you're there looking at me in this moment, at least do your
Speaker:job and say hello and make this a pleasant experience otherwise.
Speaker:Go like Kibbitz in the back with your coworker, because I don't
Speaker:need to be here looking at this.
Speaker:I have a mission.
Speaker:I have something to do.
Speaker:Either help me stay on track with that mission or GTFO
Speaker:and I will.
Speaker:'cause I did inquire specifically, I'm like envisioning, but this
Speaker:happens in other examples.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:But I am envisioning my gem.
Speaker:These people are paid a salary.
Speaker:Like it's not like they're working the front desk to get a free membership.
Speaker:Get a free
Speaker:membership.
Speaker:It is actually, but even if
Speaker:they were, that's still like a barter.
Speaker:Correct.
Speaker:That's still what
Speaker:you're signing up for.
Speaker:But that's not the situation.
Speaker:They're being paid to greet.
Speaker:So,
Speaker:and they don't have other jobs.
Speaker:Like, not that I'm, it's maybe they, like if, if they're.
Speaker:You know, signing up other people at the desk and they
Speaker:have like a ton of things to do.
Speaker:No, they're
Speaker:not even the membership people.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:There are explicit membership people,
Speaker:like their job, job is front desk reception, reading.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:Get it together.
Speaker:My dad obviously might, it's a dentist.
Speaker:He has like receptionists.
Speaker:If they didn't say something to the patients when they like walked into
Speaker:the door like, Hey, so good to see you.
Speaker:Okay, because what's really underneath this?
Speaker:How old are your dad's receptionists?
Speaker:Well, my dad's receptionists have been with him.
Speaker:That's the end of the conversation for so many years.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:So they're older.
Speaker:That's the point.
Speaker:I mean, even some younger ones, but he always complains about them.
Speaker:But I think this culture,
Speaker:yeah,
Speaker:look, I'm not trying to have this Gen Z conversation.
Speaker:Sure.
Speaker:But I'm just saying when you have grown up like this.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Right, right.
Speaker:You don't know how you don't engage with people.
Speaker:That's
Speaker:right.
Speaker:And I think you're right.
Speaker:I think that makes me very sad.
Speaker:Yeah, that is sad.
Speaker:And I'm someone, full disclosure, it's not just the gym.
Speaker:Don't talk to me.
Speaker:I don't want to talk to people.
Speaker:I am a loner.
Speaker:I'm an introvert.
Speaker:I, well, that's
Speaker:what I'm saying.
Speaker:I think it's like the either or for you, like you'd be totally
Speaker:fine if there was nobody there.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:But the fact that there is somebody there, it's like, well, at least
Speaker:do what you're supposed to do.
Speaker:If I need to interact with you in some, if I need to pick up on your
Speaker:energy, at least give me something.
Speaker:And I recognize it's a little, like just say hello, but I am sticking on this hill.
Speaker:I'm not gonna do your job for you.
Speaker:You have to say hello to me first.
Speaker:That's what you're being paid to do, right?
Speaker:Sure.
Speaker:I'm not being paid to say hi.
Speaker:You are.
Speaker:I'm paying to say hi.
Speaker:How does that work?
Speaker:And
Speaker:I pay a lot of money.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:I shouldn't be paying to say hi.
Speaker:Okay,
Speaker:I get it.
Speaker:I hear you.
Speaker:Thank,
Speaker:thank you for being with me with that.
Speaker:It really bothers me.
Speaker:I understand.
Speaker:I think anytime anyone is, seems to be there for a specific purpose that
Speaker:they're, that they're not fulfilling.
Speaker:It's extremely frustrating.
Speaker:A long time ago I complained about those people that stand
Speaker:next to the parking things.
Speaker:While I'm like trying to get my credit card in, there's literally someone
Speaker:that's standing in like a booth whose only job it is to help me put my credit
Speaker:card in if my arm is too short and can't reach, and sometimes they just
Speaker:stand there and watch me struggle.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:Frustrating.
Speaker:You know, that's
Speaker:your, that's your job.
Speaker:So I hear you.
Speaker:Add it to the ledger Trey.
Speaker:Thank you.
Speaker:I mean, just say hi.
Speaker:Just do it.
Speaker:If your job description is, if your title is greeter, is greeter.
Speaker:And you're not greeting.
Speaker:What you doing babe?
Speaker:What
Speaker:are you doing?
Speaker:What are you doing?
Speaker:Good.
Speaker:Good complaint.
Speaker:All right.
Speaker:Well, should we jump into an online review,
Speaker:Chelsey?
Speaker:Should we crystal it out?
Speaker:I mean, I feel like let's clear the energy for somebody else to take the floor.
Speaker:Should we?
Speaker:Well, I don't have a crystal at the moment, but I do have this.
Speaker:Oh, beautiful ring.
Speaker:Ooh, that.
Speaker:That counts.
Speaker:Alright, well should we jump in
Speaker:before we do?
Speaker:This is my favorite part of the show.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:Please just take a quick moment.
Speaker:If you agree with my rage.
Speaker:Click a little thumbs up.
Speaker:If you disagree.
Speaker:Do a thumbs up.
Speaker:Write a comment about why you disagree.
Speaker:Do you have experience being so angry at not being greeted?
Speaker:Let us know in the comments below.
Speaker:Hit subscribe so you never miss an update.
Speaker:Thank you.
Speaker:Yeah, let us know what made you laugh.
Speaker:Gas, say, oh no, you know, what do you want?
Speaker:What do you want from us?
Speaker:Let us know.
Speaker:Put in the comments,
Speaker:Review That.
Speaker:Review
Speaker:as your trustee.
Speaker:Review Queens, we bring in internet reviews that we feel need to be inspected.
Speaker:We read you a review.
Speaker:We break it down, and then we rate the impact of that review on a
Speaker:scale from zero to five crowns.
Speaker:It's a very regal process that we call Assess That Kvetch and Chelsey.
Speaker:It's a Chelsey episode.
Speaker:What have you got for us?
Speaker:All right, so full disclosure, I've been trying to get like more protein in.
Speaker:This is my favorite protein shake.
Speaker:It's core power.
Speaker:Um, and I really enjoy it.
Speaker:I'm, I'm doing my best.
Speaker:I can't get enough protein in with just eating, so I'm trying to do
Speaker:the protein shakes, and I'm always on the hunt for a new product.
Speaker:Maybe I want a little dessert or something that also has protein,
Speaker:like I love a dual function item.
Speaker:And so I've been looking and I came across a lot these brownies
Speaker:that are protein brownies, okay?
Speaker:And they're kind of like all over the internet.
Speaker:As soon as you start Googling that, you like proteins, you start seeing this,
Speaker:this company called Prime Bites, okay?
Speaker:And they make protein brownies.
Speaker:And they have 19 grams of protein, which is like for a brownie, pretty excellent.
Speaker:And they also have five grams of collagen and literally all over YouTube,
Speaker:shorts, TikTok, Instagram, there's all these people of all ages being
Speaker:like, oh my God, this is delicious.
Speaker:So I was like, maybe I'm gonna order these.
Speaker:But then I came across one review that had a different opinion, and
Speaker:it was enough of a different opinion to make me decide not to order.
Speaker:So I think it's worth bringing in today.
Speaker:This is a TikTok review that was written by Mrs.
Speaker:Which I think is not to be confused with Mr. Stink.
Speaker:So it's definitely Misses Tank, and this is a one out of 10.
Speaker:Review, so not very good.
Speaker:This is to every influencer that said, these brownies were the best thing ever.
Speaker:You owe me $50.
Speaker:I have seen these hyped up on TikTok for so freaking long.
Speaker:I finally caved in and bought them.
Speaker:I paid like $43 for this box of like 12 brownies.
Speaker:This was the one I was hyped up for, was the birthday cake.
Speaker:I wanted to try it with my coworker.
Speaker:We were both so excited to finally try it, broke it in half, took a bite,
Speaker:immediately spit it in the trash can.
Speaker:Disgusting, absolutely disgusting.
Speaker:Telling my husband about it, he was like, no, you're being dramatic.
Speaker:Came home again.
Speaker:We tried this cookie dough.
Speaker:You ever have stinky, stinky trash and it just smells when you go in the house.
Speaker:Take one of these brownies, set it in there for about five minutes.
Speaker:That's what they taste like.
Speaker:They literally taste like stinky trash.
Speaker:I don't know who's in charge of the marketing and the PR for this company,
Speaker:but you're doing a fantastic job.
Speaker:'cause you played me probably thousands of other people as well.
Speaker:I don't know how much money y'all are paying these influencers,
Speaker:but you ain't paying me nothing.
Speaker:Did I expect like a sweet brownie out of the oven?
Speaker:No.
Speaker:I mean I've lost like a hundred pounds over the last like a year.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:I know a little bit about protein.
Speaker:I'm gagging, just ugh.
Speaker:They're not good.
Speaker:Do not waste your money on this stick to like protein powder or something.
Speaker:These are not it, dude.
Speaker:I'm telling you.
Speaker:They're absolutely horrendous.
Speaker:If you're local to me and you wanna try one, meet me at Bucky's.
Speaker:We'll have a taste test.
Speaker:I have not swallowed any of this.
Speaker:Like I took two bites of two different flavors.
Speaker:Spit it out.
Speaker:I tried y'all.
Speaker:I really, really tried.
Speaker:I mean, I drink like beet juice in the morning.
Speaker:Like I can handle it.
Speaker:This is not it.
Speaker:Absolutely zero out of 10 from me.
Speaker:All right.
Speaker:That was actually a zero outta 10 review.
Speaker:I misspoke.
Speaker:I said one out of 10.
Speaker:It's actually zero out of 10 for Mrs.
Speaker:Tank for these brownies.
Speaker:So what do you think, Ry?
Speaker:Well, that's the valuable part of it being a TikTok review, because
Speaker:you can say zero, whereas you can't say that on Amazon or Google.
Speaker:Uh, all right.
Speaker:Well, I, first of all, I, first of all, the TW Mrs. Is clearly part of my kinfolk.
Speaker:I. I, I'm not gonna venture to say it might be South Carolina, it
Speaker:might be Louisiana, I'm not sure, but it's definitely my, my kinfolk.
Speaker:I first of all want to acknowledge here.
Speaker:Um, Mrs. Tink says that they spent $50 and then like a few
Speaker:minutes later they say it was $43.
Speaker:It.
Speaker:Do you think the $7 difference is like an interest charge?
Speaker:I mean, I think it might be like shipping.
Speaker:Maybe we're just like rounding up because we just, we think we
Speaker:deserve like a $7 trauma fee.
Speaker:I don't know, but I feel like 43 50, I did notice it, but it didn't super bother me.
Speaker:Also.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:Go for it.
Speaker:Well, question.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:So Mrs. Tink makes the distinction that they didn't swallow.
Speaker:Mm. Do you think that that changes anything?
Speaker:Not in my opinion.
Speaker:'cause I feel like once, it's like, once it's in the mouth, like if it's that
Speaker:repulsive, like you can't even swallow it,
Speaker:stinky trash, and
Speaker:it, it tastes like it's been sitting in stinky trash.
Speaker:That's enough.
Speaker:I don't need you to swallow it for my account.
Speaker:I mean, Mrs. Tank tried three different varieties of this.
Speaker:The husband didn't believe her
Speaker:question there.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:The husband's like, no, you're being dramatic.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:I grabbed my pearls.
Speaker:Excuse me, husband.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:But then I like how they were like, okay, husband, try it and
Speaker:then, then two of them are, I like that they invited us to Bucky's.
Speaker:If we don't wanna spend the $50 on our own box, we can
Speaker:have some of theirs at Bucky's,
Speaker:help them complete the box.
Speaker:Exactly.
Speaker:Um, also I think the packaging is really cute, which like, Mrs. Tank circles
Speaker:back about like, who is the marketing?
Speaker:'cause you've got Miguel.
Speaker:Like yeah, brownies do look cute, which is unfortunate.
Speaker:I
Speaker:mean, I do love that in a one star review when we have a little compliment
Speaker:sandwich, I mean even if it was meant with a little bit of shade, they're
Speaker:like, damn, like their marketing team is a plus plus because sold me.
Speaker:Also, I want to acknowledge Mrs. I almost said Mrs. Bucky's.
Speaker:Mrs. Tink talks about how they've lost a hundred pounds over the years.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:Inspiring.
Speaker:Congratulations.
Speaker:I think that's adding to the value here for me, because they
Speaker:end by saying, look, everyone I drink beet juice in the morning.
Speaker:Mm-hmm.
Speaker:Like I can handle disgusting and this, I'm not
Speaker:a baby.
Speaker:This is a whole nother level.
Speaker:I wish I had written down all of the adjectives.
Speaker:'cause Mrs.
Speaker:Tink goes off in describing throughout this entire minute and a half review,
Speaker:disgusting, horrendous, like nonverbal.
Speaker:We've reached nonverbal to describe this.
Speaker:Um, and I
Speaker:kind the we tra or the stinky trash really.
Speaker:And I've have you tasted things that, that taste like trash.
Speaker:I know exactly what she's talking about.
Speaker:I've experienced that.
Speaker:Okay, well that brings, okay, so that is interesting to me because being
Speaker:married to a vegan, I recognize that like anytime you're trying to make something,
Speaker:emulate something that it clearly is not.
Speaker:Mm-hmm.
Speaker:It's gonna be a challenge.
Speaker:So I value that Ms. Tin comes in hot by saying like, look, like maybe
Speaker:you should stick to protein powder.
Speaker:Like maybe this just, isn't it?
Speaker:They have experience, they've lost weight, they're like getting on this journey.
Speaker:So.
Speaker:But they say like, I'm not expecting a warm brownie outta the oven.
Speaker:So like, what are you like, it's hard for me because
Speaker:is the protein gain worth the disgustingness?
Speaker:Clearly not.
Speaker:No, because that's the whole point of like why I went down this road to begin with.
Speaker:Because I was like, I want.
Speaker:To have, I am already drinking this protein shake that I like.
Speaker:I wanna have something else that's a little bit of a sweet treat,
Speaker:and I wanna get my protein too.
Speaker:And this kind of company, these type of companies are advertising themselves
Speaker:as have your cake and eat it too.
Speaker:Have your cake and get a little protein.
Speaker:And many people like me and Mrs. Tink are on the market looking for these things.
Speaker:And like I said, there were so many reviews talking about how great this was.
Speaker:Clearly it was all just influencer fluff and they taste like crap.
Speaker:I don't need a crappy brownie.
Speaker:No, thank you.
Speaker:I'll have a regular brownie and a protein shake.
Speaker:I don't need like a, I, I'll have less of the brownie, but I'll eat a good brownie.
Speaker:I don't need to eat this like disgusting trash brownie for protein.
Speaker:There are other ways of getting protein,
Speaker:but like, should we, is there, is there a distinction here?
Speaker:Like, is Mrs. Tinks taste palette going to be the same as mine?
Speaker:Because like is this common?
Speaker:Do you think people are like lying that it tastes good?
Speaker:I don't know.
Speaker:I think it's one of those hard things where it's like you were saying with
Speaker:David being a vegan, it's like if you just haven't had cheese in a really long
Speaker:time and then you have some vegan cheese and you're like, oh my God, this is deli.
Speaker:This happens with my boss all the time.
Speaker:'cause she's vegan.
Speaker:She's like, oh my God, this is so good.
Speaker:Try this.
Speaker:And then I try it and I'm like, this is disgusting.
Speaker:You go.
Speaker:So it's like, it could be that effect where it's just like, I
Speaker:haven't had a brownie in so long.
Speaker:But also I just, I feel like I trust Mrs. T's palette.
Speaker:I trust the comment about the beet juice.
Speaker:I trust that they've clearly been on this journey for a long time.
Speaker:So I don't think this is the first protein product that they've tried, you know?
Speaker:Maybe it is because they're talking about protein powder, but either way,
Speaker:I, I trust them that they know how these kind of products are supposed to taste.
Speaker:And I don't think that this is up to, up to snuff or whatever you wanna
Speaker:say.
Speaker:I mean, I think it's going into the truthful, shady for me, like I think it's
Speaker:more truthful than it is shady because agree, like they're espousing so many
Speaker:times that they're not an influencer and that they were duped by influencers.
Speaker:Like, how much are you paying these influencers, dudes?
Speaker:That, that I do feel like it's probably more common than not, because what
Speaker:does Mrs. Tink have to gain by lying?
Speaker:Like, it seems like it's so repulsive.
Speaker:Um,
Speaker:and they're already out.
Speaker:They're like, you owe me $50.
Speaker:Like being sort of like funny and shady.
Speaker:But the reality is like they're already out this money.
Speaker:They're just trying to be a good Samaritan and help us out and help me from wasting
Speaker:$50, which I'm very happy that I didn't,
Speaker:I. I also have to just mention the wind.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:In this review is very, very loud.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:I'm on Mrs. T's side.
Speaker:I really like them.
Speaker:But you are on a visual platform, TikTok.
Speaker:Um, if, if the wind is louder than your voice, maybe we need a retake.
Speaker:I do hear you.
Speaker:I wanna play devil's advocate for a second only because I recently
Speaker:had a conversation with a friend.
Speaker:I was telling them that like sometimes Goldie will bark and we'll have to
Speaker:stop recording and it's a whole thing.
Speaker:And they were saying when they watch videos, they actually like it when they
Speaker:hear like a dog bark or something that lets them know this is real life and
Speaker:not produce like is comforting for them.
Speaker:And I thought that was interesting.
Speaker:That was something I hadn't thought of before.
Speaker:So leave a comment and let us know your opinion on that situation.
Speaker:But it definitely does highlight that Mrs. Tink is not an influencer.
Speaker:They're just standing in their backyard recording their real life experience.
Speaker:And I hear you like if you're sensitive to sound, maybe it will bother you.
Speaker:But I wanna point out, I think it, in a weird way, it added to the
Speaker:authenticity of the whole review.
Speaker:All right, well that's interesting, right?
Speaker:Because there's a distinction between like.
Speaker:Well, but this isn't a video on an Amazon review.
Speaker:This is actually a TikTok review,
Speaker:I guess.
Speaker:But I do feel like the world of TikTok reviews is casual for people that,
Speaker:yeah, is this like casual, like I wanna connect with someone who is real.
Speaker:I don't wanna connect with someone who is hyper produced.
Speaker:The reason I'm so captivated by what I'm watching is because I
Speaker:know that it's slice of life.
Speaker:Fair.
Speaker:I mean, I agree.
Speaker:I think that's adding to the authenticity.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:But like, but
Speaker:I hear you.
Speaker:It's still like annoying.
Speaker:It's, it's worth mentioning,
Speaker:girl, you're, you're recording a video for people to consume.
Speaker:Yes.
Speaker:I can't hear you because of the wind.
Speaker:But at the same time, I, I can also understand and relate to the fact
Speaker:that if Mrs. Tank didn't realize the wind was an issue and then they got
Speaker:to the end of the entire recording where, where they record again.
Speaker:Or,
Speaker:or would they, where's the curtain?
Speaker:That's a little peek behind the curtain, everyone.
Speaker:Um, or would they just say, screw it?
Speaker:Um, I'm just gonna post it.
Speaker:Um, you know what I mean?
Speaker:I know what you mean.
Speaker:I don't know if the audience doesn't mean Chelsey and I are having a conversation
Speaker:beat by beat based on memory from maybe having done this already before.
Speaker:Oh my goodness.
Speaker:I feel.
Speaker:Impacted.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And I imagine that since we're here, you probably found this product because
Speaker:you were looking for protein, bing.
Speaker:Oh, a
Speaker:hundred percent.
Speaker:I think I said that at the top when I was introing the product,
Speaker:like I, I was looking for protein products and I came across so many
Speaker:reviews for this product that were.
Speaker:Great.
Speaker:And that we're really glowing and that we're saying like,
Speaker:oh my God, this is so good.
Speaker:I mean, I will say in hindsight, I felt like a lot of people were eating
Speaker:the brownie and then doing this.
Speaker:Like they would like take a bite of the brownie and then they would go,
Speaker:Hmm, that's good.
Speaker:So maybe they were like acting fak it, acting and acting and washing it down.
Speaker:I didn't, it's interesting.
Speaker:Um, because I get why they didn't do it, but Mrs. Tank didn't eat this live on the
Speaker:air, so all we got was the recreation.
Speaker:Whereas the other reviews that I saw that were positive, they
Speaker:were actually eating them.
Speaker:But now that I'm like thinking back in the recesses, in my mind I do think
Speaker:that it was like, you know when you eat something and then you're like, Hmm, hmm.
Speaker:Oh, that's good.
Speaker:Hmm.
Speaker:Like it was like a, maybe it was, there was a little bit of a delay and
Speaker:it was really about the production.
Speaker:Like this video stood out to me because it was less like, oh, here's the product.
Speaker:Ooh.
Speaker:So pretty, like we were saying the packaging, all the things.
Speaker:So this was.
Speaker:An anomaly in my search, but it was a strong enough
Speaker:conviction to really sway me.
Speaker:I feel weighed as well.
Speaker:I feel like I don't need to try these brownies.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:No.
Speaker:I even though need though, I've never
Speaker:met Mrs. Tank until this moment,
Speaker:and just to point out like, that's a lot of money for brownies.
Speaker:This is not cheap.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:This is a big investment and so I do think that Mrs. Tank is.
Speaker:Is very impactful.
Speaker:I think I can crown.
Speaker:Okay, so Chelsey and I each have our own set of zero to five crown cards.
Speaker:In an effort to be fair and not influence one another, we will
Speaker:simultaneously reveal our braiding.
Speaker:The Queens are Tabulating,
Speaker:so
Speaker:to school.
Speaker:Okay, so I'm holding up five crowns and Trey's holding up five crowns.
Speaker:Mrs. Tink, you are a double Review Queen Trey, you go first, let us know
Speaker:why you made Mrs. Tink a Review Queen.
Speaker:Okay?
Speaker:So there's part of me that wants to take half a crown off because you
Speaker:are, regardless of authenticity, your hair is blowing in the wind.
Speaker:Like not.
Speaker:You must have down, I didn't mean to call you a branch stink.
Speaker:I'm actually on your side here.
Speaker:I'm just saying.
Speaker:It's a, it's a video that's being recorded.
Speaker:Be aware that the wind is in your face and it's in the audio.
Speaker:It doesn't, it doesn't matter.
Speaker:It's not the big of a deal.
Speaker:Everything else is very queenly to me because Mrs.
Speaker:Tink doesn't have to share this opinion with us.
Speaker:They do it in a way that is incredibly hilarious, informative,
Speaker:funny, engaging, and impactful.
Speaker:I mean, I am not gonna buy the brownies now, you know?
Speaker:And I believe them.
Speaker:And it's humorous and it's not super long.
Speaker:Like they tick off all the boxes and yes, they're not Steven Spielberg.
Speaker:They're not with Dreamworks.
Speaker:Like they're doing it all with their hand.
Speaker:So like if you don't catch the wind, whatever, um, Review Queen Chelsey.
Speaker:Why did you say Review Queen?
Speaker:I
Speaker:mean, how can I not make Mrs. Tanker Review Queen?
Speaker:They personally influenced me.
Speaker:I know they say they're not an influencer, but Mrs.
Speaker:Tank, you are an influencer.
Speaker:I agree.
Speaker:You influenced me.
Speaker:So thank you for spending your hard earned $50 43 on 43 to $50 on with
Speaker:shipping on this product because you saved me from spending that money.
Speaker:You totally convinced me.
Speaker:I totally believe you.
Speaker:I love the compliment sandwich you stuck in there with, with giving
Speaker:your, tipping your hat, so to speak, to the PR person and the team while
Speaker:still letting us know it's a horrible product and I drink bee juice.
Speaker:So I now, so everything that you demonstrated in this video made me
Speaker:trust and believe your opinion, which I think is Queen Lay, and I had to make
Speaker:you a Review Queen for that reason.
Speaker:So thank you, Mrs. Tank,
Speaker:and I will not be buying these brownies.
Speaker:All right, well, queen, we've aired our grievances.
Speaker:We've inspected a review thoroughly, so now.
Speaker:Let's shine a light on something truly deserving of a crown.
Speaker:We have reached the most regal portion of our show.
Speaker:Trey, who are you inducting for?
Speaker:My Royal Highness.
Speaker:All right, so I'm gonna just show you, this is actually written down.
Speaker:I have it here on my notes.
Speaker:My Royal Highness.
Speaker:Oh my goodness.
Speaker:So fresh,
Speaker:fresh baked cookies.
Speaker:And Mrs. Tink was talking about the brownie outta the oven.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:Irony all.
Speaker:I want us to all go back to that time.
Speaker:Well, this is what, this is what's, when I think of freshly baked cookies,
Speaker:it's like a whole immersive 3D memory.
Speaker:I think of myself being younger as a kid.
Speaker:It's like Friday or Saturday night.
Speaker:I don't have school tomorrow.
Speaker:It's like we're watching SNCC or TGIF and it's like an event
Speaker:and the aroma of the cookies.
Speaker:Fills the kitchen.
Speaker:Mm. You like check to see if it's done with a toothpick because it can't
Speaker:be too burnt, but it can't be too.
Speaker:I like them crispier.
Speaker:Um, and then like scraping them off the cookie Trey and you have to
Speaker:wait a few minutes so that you're not like breaking the cookie.
Speaker:It has to like get a little solid.
Speaker:And I love the, the, like the idea of like a small glass of like ice
Speaker:cold milk and you like dip the.
Speaker:Not super gooey, but it's like gooey 'cause it's out of the oven and
Speaker:like the chocolate is s dripping.
Speaker:Like it takes me back to like being a kid and being like, it's just like so like
Speaker:pleasant and I don't know how, I don't know what other experiences there are.
Speaker:It's like an event.
Speaker:Its like, it's like doesn't require that much time or work,
Speaker:but it's like fulfilling and fun.
Speaker:It's like a warm, gooey cookie that you made from like the Pillsbury.
Speaker:It's like, no one's making cookie dough.
Speaker:At least not me.
Speaker:Um, and I don't, I don't really do this anymore as an adult.
Speaker:Like I don't make fresh baked cookies really anymore.
Speaker:And there's something so lovely and charming about that.
Speaker:So I want us all to be in that moment, even if we're currently
Speaker:vegan and we don't eat egg, just the joy of like, we're baking cookies.
Speaker:We are enjoying the cookies, the excitement, checking the, the
Speaker:oven, like through the glass, like turning the light on.
Speaker:It's like, oh my gosh, the cookies smells so good and then you eat
Speaker:them and you're having a sleepover.
Speaker:You're in your pajamas.
Speaker:That whole energy, that whole experience of fresh baked cookies,
Speaker:yes, is My Royal Highness.
Speaker:I love that.
Speaker:I love cookies.
Speaker:I'm obsessed with cookies.
Speaker:It's the perfect dessert.
Speaker:It's the perfect.
Speaker:Love it.
Speaker:Love fresh baked cookies.
Speaker:Great induction Trey.
Speaker:Ooh, thank you.
Speaker:Alright, well we did a queen.
Speaker:The good, the bad, the repeat, the vecchi.
Speaker:That's another round.
Speaker:The windy on the R ru.
Speaker:A RQ, Ferris whale love.
Speaker:Steven, where are you?
Speaker:Spielberg baby.
Speaker:That's right.
Speaker:Thank you for joining us today.
Speaker:If you like what you heard, even the wind, please call a friend
Speaker:and if you did not like what you heard, especially the wind tell an enemy.
Speaker:Okay, this is funny.
Speaker:Today, on this week's after show podcast, Chelsey and I are going
Speaker:to be rating and reviewing this two star Amazon review four.
Speaker:Schl farm world.
Speaker:Two barrel rodeo racing play set, rodeo racing toy set with cowgirl
Speaker:and horse realistic Western rodeo.
Speaker:Farm animal toys and accessories.
Speaker:Six piece kids toy for boys and girls.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:So with that mouthful of a title, I wonder why this was said because
Speaker:at first I was like, oh grandma, you just bought the wrong one.
Speaker:But now I'm like, maybe grandma really influenced them and they, or maybe
Speaker:they got more complaints like, oh no, everybody knows it's three barrels.
Speaker:Where
Speaker:are you getting grandma from?
Speaker:Didn't she say she bought it for her granddaughter?
Speaker:The reviewer's name is Jason.
Speaker:I wonder as well.
Speaker:Well, as we are all wondering, please remember,
Speaker:ignore the haters.
Speaker:You are queen.
Speaker:Gender nonspecific brownie eating queen.
Speaker:That's right, but not these brownies, because these brownies are gross.
Speaker:Okay.
