We've got a couple of minutes here. Ethan brought some snacks.

**Ethan** (0:06)
I brought jelly beans. I brought Colonel's favorite jelly beans. These are KFC flavored jelly beans. One of our faithful listeners, Drew, gave this to me. I've tested them, they're not poisoned.

**Nigel** (0:19)
I was going to say, so somebody went and picked these up from Kentucky Fried Chicken. I don't know where they're sold. They're like Jelly Bellies.

**Ethan** (0:26)
Yeah, well, they are Jelly Bellies. They're Jelly Bellies.

**Nigel** (0:28)
I love Jelly Bellies, but sometimes Jelly Bellies taste like crap.

**Ethan** (0:33)
They are strong. They're strongly reminiscent of their flavors. The three flavors are Fried Chicken, Sweet Corn and Gravy.

**Nigel** (0:41)
You're telling me.

**Ethan** (0:41)
And I tried to give you one of one of each. I think you've got I think you've got all three. They're not they're not bad. I wouldn't gravitate towards this. The Fried Chicken one is is interesting, though. You should give that a try.

**Nigel** (0:52)
Which one?

**Ethan** (0:53)
The one with the speckles is the Fried Chicken one.

**Nigel** (0:55)
All right.

**Ethan** (0:56)
And then the sweet corn and the gravy are kind of hard to tell. The difference between the gravy is like a darker.

**Hammer** (1:01)
You can tell the difference.
Ethan, let me sample them earlier. So what do you think of the Fried Chicken Jelly Belly?

**Nigel** (1:08)
That tastes like fried chicken.

**Ethan** (1:10)
Yeah, it does. Isn't that wild?

**Nigel** (1:12)
Oh, my gosh. I mean, I might puke, but at least.

**Ethan** (1:20)
It's not bad.

**Hammer** (1:21)
I told you to get a trashcan and you said no, you'd be fine because you haven't puked on the air in two years.

**Nigel** (1:26)
I haven't. OK, I pride myself on that.

**Ethan** (1:29)
Oh, I just bit into a gravy one for sure. That's a gravy one.

**Nigel** (1:32)
All right. I've got a light yellow and a dark yellow.

**Ethan** (1:35)
The light yellow, I'm going to say, is the sweet corn and the dark yellow is the gravy.

**Nigel** (1:39)
Sweet corn.
Oh, my God. This is so disgusting.

**Ethan** (1:48)
Who comes up with this?

**Nigel** (1:49)
Who gave you this?

**Ethan** (1:50)
Because I know you, it's listener Drew.

**Nigel** (1:52)
I know you gave us, I know you go to KFC.

**Ethan** (1:57)
Yeah, every Tuesday to get their $10 Tuesday deal. They announced it a couple of months ago, and I've been taking advantage of it. You can get an eight piece drums and thighs with the dark meat chicken is my favorite chicken for $10.
That's about $2.50 a meal for four meals because I can just eat two pieces and then throw the rest in the fridge and heat that up for lunch for next three days after I get off work.

**Nigel** (2:20)
How do you think they capture the essence of the chicken? Science. Jelly belly.

**Hammer** (2:25)
Hurry up and eat the gravy one before we go. This is the worst one, I think.

**Ethan** (2:30)
I think you're right. The gravy one is the worst.

**Nigel** (2:33)
Oh my. Where is the track?

**Hammer** (2:35)
I told him.

**Ethan** (2:36)
I told him so many times. The gravy one's bad. The sweet corn one isn't too bad. The fried chicken one isn't bad.

**Hammer** (2:43)
And now he's gunning on the corner and he's going to do a little spitzing.
Oh, wonderful. Oh, luckily, I did not get on my camera.

**Nigel** (2:51)
OK.

**Hammer** (2:52)
All right. Hammer Nigel Show.
