**Bern Podcast** (1:12)
Over to you, Liam.

**Liam Reese** (1:13)
All right, I am gonna kick this one off with, I need you guys to give me the top 10 cereals by annual sales in the United States, okay?

**Matt Lavelle** (1:25)
Anal sales?

**Liam Reese** (1:27)
This was put together by the independent, okay? Annual sales, top 10 cereals in the US., this one should be pretty straightforward, guys, all right?

**Matt Lavelle** (1:38)
I think I know all of them by heart, won't have to guess a damn thing, because I love cereal, I've been getting back into cereal recently, you know? Oh, yeah? I mean, you kind of have to take a break from cereal as an adult sometimes, you know?

**Liam Reese** (1:52)
You definitely do.

**Matt Lavelle** (1:52)
It's just, it's impossible not to gain a million pounds eating cereal. It's impossible.

**Liam Reese** (1:57)
That is correct. You got to go like Granola. Yeah, you got to do Magic Spoon and Granola for like most of the time, then maybe for like a month, you can fuck around with the good cereals.

**Matt Lavelle** (2:07)
I mean, fun fact, Magic Spoon almost sponsored this show.

**Bern Podcast** (2:11)
Almost.
Almost did. We almost had them.

**Matt Lavelle** (2:14)
One episode cost us everything.

**Bern Podcast** (2:16)
One story was all it took.

**Matt Lavelle** (2:19)
God, that was fucking what? Three, three years ago, four years ago?

**Bern Podcast** (2:24)
Probably closer to four, because I was happily married.

**Matt Lavelle** (2:26)
It was when your boy Ian, the one that lives in Washington, got married. Yeah, when he got married.

**Bern Podcast** (2:33)
Steve told us a story.

**Matt Lavelle** (2:34)
It was that story.

**Liam Reese** (2:36)
Oh no.

**Bern Podcast** (2:37)
That was the Magic Spoon.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:38)
He used the words that were not supposed to use.

**Matt Lavelle** (2:41)
And that was where our sponsorship plan. But I aired it.
I should have cut it, but I aired it, so I'm the idiot. But either way, we got four minutes. Ben Didi, Patelini, if you don't get the first cereal, you're getting a kick in the dick. Go ahead.

**Bern Podcast** (2:55)
I'm going with the classic favorite. Can I see Cinnamon Toast Crunch here, please?

**Matt Lavelle** (2:59)
CT.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:59)
Crunch.

**Liam Reese** (3:00)
CTC. Number five on the list, baby.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:06)
Oh, all right. All right. All right.

**Matt Lavelle** (3:10)
How about little Fruity Pebbles?

**Liam Reese** (3:13)
Fruity Pebbles, number 10, one of my personal favorites. Definitely, definitely belongs on there.

**Matt Lavelle** (3:22)
All right. Ben Deedy, go ahead, daddy.

**Bern Podcast** (3:24)
We'll do like a skim on the slightly other side. Can I see a Honey Nut Cheerio?

**Liam Reese** (3:29)
Honey Nut Cheerios, number two. And I am surprised it's not number one because that is Honey Nut Cheerios is old reliable, baby.

**Bern Podcast** (3:38)
Never fails, never fails.

**Matt Lavelle** (3:40)
Shout out to Omar. Shout out.

**Liam Reese** (3:43)
Yeah, they got Honey Nut Cheerios in here. When he goes to jail. No, Honey Nut.

**Matt Lavelle** (3:48)
All right. What about, can I go regular Cheerios?

**Liam Reese** (3:52)
Regular Cheerios is number one, daddy-o. I think the old heads drive that to number one.

**Matt Lavelle** (4:01)
I think people mistake it for Honey Nut and grab it. Wow, one in two Cheerios is one in two.

**Bern Podcast** (4:07)
Running this rap shit.

**Matt Lavelle** (4:10)
Venditti, we're cooking now.

**Bern Podcast** (4:12)
Let me see if you can catch the Lucky Charm.

**Liam Reese** (4:14)
Oh, they're always after me Lucky Charms. Number six, why is everyone always laugh when I say that?
