Hand In The Honey Pot
June 05, 2020 11:00 - 23 minutes - 53.9 MBWe’ve been waiting a few months for new Lucky Charms Honey Clovers. Were they worth the wait?

One Day At A Time
June 01, 2020 11:00 - 32 minutes - 74.1 MBDiamond is here! Well, she can’t eat any of the cereals, so she leaves. But, we are joined once again by our friend Michele, fresh off Survivor Season 40. We’ll try the new Minions Cereal from General Mills, along with another Kashi Go Cereal. It’s new, and it’s coconut. Then, you’ll see how Scotty screwed up cereal #3.

Like Rabbits
May 29, 2020 11:00 - 21 minutes - 50.2 MBDanielle is really bored and is back again for this episode featuring fake Golden Grahams, some Rabbit Cereal that should be used as rabbit food, and a delicious chocolate peanut butter concoction with a curious name from Nature’s Path.

Lemon Blueberry Bliss
May 25, 2020 11:00 - 20 minutes - 47 MBWe’re still reviewing cereals from the “healthy side” of the cereal aisle, and in this episode we’ll try a surprisingly delicious granola from Cascadian Farm, a crappy knock-off from Aldi, and we will Go Spark with Kashi. Plus, this is the place for the Scotty/Andrew shenanigans you’ve come to expect! Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Flame Raisins!
May 22, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes - 43.6 MBIt’s another episode of all 3 listener supplied cereals! Danielle joins us again as we try 2 more cereals from Aldi. One is a Millville and one is Fit & Active! Then, we’ll scoot across the pond and dive into a box of Jordan’s Country Crisp with Flame Raisins. What is a Flame Raisin? Beats us…but they’re big!

Plain Corny
May 18, 2020 11:00 - 22 minutes - 51.2 MBWe really can’t wait to be back together in the studio…this Zoom stuff sucks. But…we carry on! Today we will try some really bland puffed corn from Arrowhead Mills, and 2 varieties of Honey Bunches Of Oats that somehow, we haven’t had yet.

The Rip-Off Mascots! (Part 2)
May 15, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes - 44.2 MBIn this episode, we’ll continue our investigation of fake mascots on boxes of Millville cereals. Danielle is back, and her son Spencer pops in to agree with Scotty (yay!). Cereals include fake Honey Smacks, fake Cocoa Puffs and fake Lucky Charms…led by a past-his-prime old wizard.

The Rip-Off Mascots! (Part 1)
May 11, 2020 11:00 - 22 minutes - 50.8 MBIn yet another wreck of audio from 3 different locations, Scotty, Andrew & Danielle will try a trio of listener supplied cereals from Aldi’s brand, Millville. All 3 have an inferior mascot as compared to the one from the real name brand cereal. But how will the taste compare? Pete the Parrot knows…but he’s not talking…so listen!

GR-R-REAT Nate!
May 08, 2020 11:00 - 17 minutes - 41 MBSoooo…another episode where Andrew simply didn’t have the time to record. It’s OK. We know he is busy. There really should be a sarcasm emoji. Anyway…thankfully Nate was around to sit in. In this episode, we will take a look at 2 Kashi Cereals, and the Bonus Box (bag) is back as we dive into Malt-O-Meal’s Frosted Flakes! Andrew would have really liked those!! Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Cinnsational!
May 04, 2020 11:00 - 16 minutes - 36.6 MBAfter Scotty goes through the entire list of every variety of Cheerios ever made, Andrew gets antsy and dumps nearly his entire box of all-new Cinnamon Cheerios all over Donna’s pristine floors. Luckily, there is just enough for one bowl of this 5-bowl reincarnation of its former self. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
You’ll Forget The Fiber!
May 01, 2020 12:44 - 18 minutes - 42.5 MBIn another all over the place episode, we’ll somehow get through checking out the listener supplied Cascadian Farm Dark Chocolate Almond Granola, plus Fiber One’s Honey Clusters! Andrew’s house if full of noise and Scotty’s blood pressure is high, as usual. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Birthday Boy
April 27, 2020 11:00 - 17 minutes - 39.5 MBWhat a crappy time to have a birthday! Andrew is closing in on 30, and sitting in his parent's basement eating random cereal out of unmarked baggies for no pay. I'm sure Donna is thrilled that this is what her sweet boy has become. In any event, we'll try some Frosted Flakes from Annie's, and Scotty's mom's favorite...Kamut from Nature's Path.

Where In The World Is Andrew?
April 24, 2020 11:00 - 18 minutes - 42.4 MBWhile Andrew is off doing important producer-type things, the show must go on! So, Danielle sits in to co-host and we try some Berry Vanilla Puffs from Cascadian Farm, and Kashi really wants us to Go…so this time we will Wander with some cranberries and blueberries. We’re doing the best we can with audio, and since we all know Danielle is loud on her own, it took a lot of work to even this out!

Just Surviving
April 20, 2020 11:00 - 22 minutes - 52.3 MBWe never will truly be happy with the sound quality until we are back in the studio together again, but we press on! Bringing back our friend Michele from Survivor to try out the new Spongebob Squarepants Cereal from Kellogg’s, then a re-brand of a classic Kashi Cereal, and we need the Immunity Idol for an international listener submission. Oh, Pico. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Sorry Sir Charms
April 17, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes - 44.4 MBWe think we have the audio issue solved. Well, maybe. Couldn’t find any new cereals for this episode, so we (well, Scotty) decided that we would check out store brand versions of Lucky Charms. One of them actual scored 5 Bowls!

Who's Zooming Who?
April 13, 2020 11:00 - 18 minutes - 41.8 MBThis episode is terrible. As we still try to figure out the best technology to bring you new episodes, you'll see this isn't it. Scotty, Andrew and Danielle all join up on a Zoom call to try another listener supplied LIDL cereal, along with a Kashi By Kids and a new variety of Annie's.

Cereal Graveyard!
April 10, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes - 43.6 MBWell…Scotty went and did it. The quality of the last episode with Andrew on the phone was unsatisfactory. So with Scotty the only one in the studio, he gives you an all-dead cereal episode! No trying anything here! To Andrew’s delight, all old commercials for cereals that no longer exist. Cool, huh? If you were a child of the 80s…this one’s for you! Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
A.P. Phone Home
April 06, 2020 11:00 - 18 minutes - 41.7 MBWell, here’s the first train wreck episode as we figure out how best to record while in different locations. Andrew “phones it in” (as usual) and we check out some new Cascadian Farm squares, an unimpressive blueberry thing from Nature’s Path, and some listener supplied Nestle cereal from UAE, that implies it wants us to exercise.

Honey Mooners
April 03, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes - 44.9 MBIn this final “normal” episode recorded in-studio, Mom will comfort us with her Crispy Cinnamon Rice, and we’ll head back to Poland for some nasty Cini Minis. Then we’ll try some really generic cereals from LIDL…one of them is really good! Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Polish Nesquik Overload
March 30, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes - 44.1 MBLike we said, at this point…all we can try is whatever we have left in the Cereal Sack! So, in this episode we’ll get a really good cereal from Malt-O-Meal, another Quaker Simply Granola (with crispy raisins??) and 2 Polish Nesquik Cereals will jump into the ring, courtesy of our great listeners.

No Name..Not So much
March 27, 2020 11:00 - 21 minutes - 19.4 MBWith the exception of that keto crap, this is the first episode without any major brands represented in our 3 boxes of cereal. All listener supplied, we’ll try some no name cookie cereal…a nasty box of Ezekiel…and kosher cereal that reminds Scotty of King Vitaman, which means we’ll hear an old commercial!

Maybe Mom Can Help
March 23, 2020 11:00 - 18 minutes - 16.7 MBWhile everyone is doing their best to stay away from each other, we continue to eat cereal! Of course, this is pre-recorded, so, we are not actually together. In this episode, we'll try yet another Great Grains from Post and Mom will save the day with her Safari Cocoa Crunch. Then a listener submission that we think is called Corn Pleasure. Huh? Exactly. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Leapin’ Lemurs!
March 20, 2020 11:00 - 21 minutes - 20.1 MBHere to be your stupid cereal escape for 22 minutes. In this episode we will check out yet another Cheerios variety…Banana Nut! While Scotty is generally not a fan of banana flavor, he takes this one surprisingly well! Then, we’ll head to Madagascar and try to catch some Leapin’ Lemurs. Did you know they taste like chocolate peanut butter?? Plus, Passover is on the way, so we’ll visit Magic Max. Oh…you’ll see!

Japanese Finale
March 16, 2020 11:00 - 23 minutes - 21.1 MBWe’ve reached the 5th and final cereal from Andrew’s journey to Japan. Our translation expert Lydia Malcolm stops by to help us figure out the name of this cereal. We’ll also have a quick visit from Danielle to try some French Toast cereal from Kashi, and a classic Great Grains from Post.

Berry Funny Scotty!
March 13, 2020 11:00 - 19 minutes - 17.8 MBAndrew is not a fan of berry filled things, and Scotty knows it. So, in this episode, there will be 2 to try! Yay! Then then #4 out of 5 Japanese Cereals that Andrew brought back from his trip, and we really don’t know what the name of it is. Plus, since this is episode 91, and Andrew was born in 1991, Scotty will try to stump him with lots of music from that year. What do you think will happen?

TimBits Bonus!
March 11, 2020 11:00 - 14 minutes - 13.7 MBWe’ve been seeing this cereal on social media for a few months, but it is only available in Canada. Our Awesome listener Jana and her husband Tony took a ride up north of the border and sent us a box of Chocolate Glazed and Andrew’s favorite, Birthday Cake! Gandhi happened to be passing through the studio, so you will hear her take as well. Then it gets a bit nuts as she and Andrew rip on Scotty. Good times.

Strawberry Bread
March 09, 2020 11:00 - 21 minutes - 19.9 MBWe never realized how many strawberry cereals there were until we started doing this podcast! Danielle will join us to explore 2 more, both from Post, and the Shredded Wheat courtesy of our listener, Ramiro. Then, it’s back to Japan with another bag of something we can’t read! Is it cereal? Bread? Croutons? Who knows. But one of us spits it across the room! Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Listener Request
March 06, 2020 12:00 - 20 minutes - 18.8 MBWhen we came back from vacation, we returned to a studio full of boxes of cereal from you…our listeners! We’ll bang out 3 of them in this episode, including the return of Peeps Cereal from Kellogg’s, just in time for Easter! Plus, Andrew is allowed to break out one more cereal he brought back from Japan. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Turning Japanese
March 02, 2020 12:00 - 23 minutes - 21.5 MBAndrew tries to break out all 5 cereals he brought back from Japan, but Scotty is not having it! Danielle tries to keep the peace, and is happy to try new Magic Fruity Pebbles from Post. Then Scotty’s granola vacation cereal stolen from the cruise ship buffet, plus, just one of Andrew’s smuggled Japanese cereals…Donut Mart.

The Return Of Sir Charms
February 28, 2020 12:00 - 18 minutes - 16.8 MBAndrew isn’t very impressed, but Lucky just rode into town on his rainbow with a limited edition box of Lucky Charms for St. Patrick’s Day! Then, some delightful Frosted Mini Spooners from Malt-O-Meal. You may know that Ezekiel is bread found in the freezer section, but did you know it’s cereal as well? We’ll try the cinnamon raisin variety while reading some bible quotes. Why? You’ll see… Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Kraving Chocolate CHiPs
February 24, 2020 12:00 - 23 minutes - 21.4 MBWe love when Danielle stops by because Andrew looks like a deer in the headlights when Scotty tries to stump him with old songs and TV themes. Once again…success! We’ll try some more old school Shredded Wheat, a new Strawberry Shortcake Cap’n Crunch and some disappointing Kellogg’s Krave from across the pond.

Extra Large!

We’ll try those, plus another Quaker Simply Granola, and we’ll head to Poland again for a Nestle Cereal that Andrew hates. Oh…and we’ll hear some interesting things about Scotty’s grandparents.

You Take The Good, You Take The Bad
February 17, 2020 12:00 - 18 minutes - 17.3 MBLife is good…the strawberry one, anyway. We’ll try that, plus – some bird nest courtesy of Fiber One, and Tootie stops by! (well, in cereal form) Remember Dolly Madison ice cream? Well guess what…Andrew doesn’t. Shocker. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
No Fun Froot Loops
February 14, 2020 12:00 - 23 minutes - 21.5 MBNot sure if it’s a good thing or not, but Greg T briefly joins us to try some of Barbara’s Morning Oat Crunch. It’s always interesting when he shows up. Then we kick him out and get on to trying the delicious Cinnamon Frosted Flakes and a “healthy” Froot Loops wannabe from Freedom Foods. Oh…and listen carefully for when Andrew thinks that Regis is still hosting “LIVE”. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cereal-killers--4294848/support.
Cereal SURVIVOR
February 10, 2020 12:23 - 26 minutes - 24.2 MBWell, since Andrew will never be on SURVIVOR, we’ll bring Season 32 (Kaôh Rōng) winner, Michele Fitzgerald, to Cereal Killers! She’ll help us check out a new (highly rated) Malt-O-Meal variety, some Mueslix that she can bring to the island, and a hoppin’ cereal from Poland.

Plus, we’ll try some plain old bran flakes and the new Frosted Honey Bunches Of Oats. Then, Scotty breaks out some Alt Rock to try to stump the older Millennial.

Magically Vomicious…With A Bump!
February 03, 2020 12:00 - 24 minutes - 22 MBWe try it…so you don’t have to! Danielle joins us to blow through 4 boxes of listener supplied Magic Spoon Keto-Friendly Cereal. Surprisingly, she *kinda* likes some of it. Her taste buds must have been burned off in a horrible accident. Then Nate pops in to introduce us to his favorite childhood cereal…Peanut Butter Bumpers!

Friday On A Monday
January 27, 2020 12:03 - 25 minutes - 23.1 MBThis description will only make sense on release date, but oh well. Scotty was sick and screwed everything up. In any event, in this episode, we’ll check out another Kellogg’s Raisin Bran…this one with a scoop of raisins and a scoop of cranberries. Then more Kellogg’s loops as they introduce a new cereal that should have been out years ago. Then a non-descript box of knock-off Cinnamon Toast Crunch found at Lidl. Plus, you’ll hear Andrew struggle throughout for the name of a 90’s toy that...
Queen Of Medleys
January 20, 2020 12:00 - 22 minutes - 20.5 MBWe’ll try 2 different medley cereals…one from Quaker and one from General Mills. Then, in marches the Queen. The Quinoa Queen!

He’s here to try some ice cream themed cereals including Drumstick Mint Chocolate and Neapolitan Puffs Cereal from Trader Joe’s. Plus some underwhelming Special K and we’ll head across the pond for some weird, giant Rice Krispies as Scotty gets to play the Cereal Killers International Jingle!

Anyway, another candy themed cereal from General Mills makes an appearance, as well as a kinda classic Raisin Bran, some giant Reese’s Puffs, and we’ll head across the pond and hang with Coco The Monkey, as we go international!

Absent Andy
January 06, 2020 12:21 - 10 minutes - 9.7 MBAnother example of Andrew not caring about this podcast, he is missing and we needed a new episode. So, since Scotty cares about you, he reviews 3 cereals with his daughter Ashley. 12 year olds can’t quite argue as well as a millennial, so this episode is fairly short. We’ll try (and Andrew will miss) the all-new General Mills mash-up of Cocoa Puffs and Lucky Charms, then the classic Banana Nut Crunch and a Trader Joe’s bonus box.

Enter our stinky studio as we try a relatively new berry Cheerios variety, as well as another Honey Bunches Of Oats flavor. Then we travel to Japan through the magic of Matcha Green Tea cereal.

Awards going to the best and worst cereals of the year, plus a very heartwarming Spoony awarded in honor of our friend Wilford Brimley. In between awards, Andrew gets stumped (shocker) by more 80s TV themes, and we try some Secret Squirrel provided new cereals…Special K Banana and the highly anticipated and slightly disappointing Trix Tolls World Cereal.
