Trey Gerrald: 00:01:14

Hey Chelsey girl, how's your week going?

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:16

oh, my weekend's going good.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:17

It was funny when we were doing that intro, I was having like Mary, Kate and Ashley flashbacks.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:22

Like we'll solve that crime by dinner time.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:26

Remember that we did take a photo like that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:28

Didn't we?

Trey Gerrald: 00:01:28

we?

Trey Gerrald: 00:01:29

did actually, um, double, double toil and trouble.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:31

Exactly.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:32

Oh my God.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:33

I used to watch all those movies as a kid.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:35

Did you watch them?

Trey Gerrald: 00:01:36

Of course.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:37

well, doc, my week's good.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:39

How's your week.

Trey Gerrald: 00:01:40

I'm having a great week and you might be able to tell on my vocal

Trey Gerrald: 00:01:51

And so I do feel like I'm a little congested, but thankfully we have some over-the-counter

Trey Gerrald: 00:01:57

And otherwise I'm slugging through and, Um,

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:00

yeah, life is really good and I'm really happy to be here.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:03

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:03

I feel like this podcast brought to you by, Zyrtec or, you know what I mean?

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:08

Yeah, no, no question about that.

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:11

Well, all right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:12

So why don't we jump into some complaints, Chelsey, is there anything that's

VOICEOVER: 00:02:22

Lodge A Complaint.

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:23

about.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:24

Of course trey.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:25

I don't know if we talked about this.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:27

I don't really care if we did.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:29

I don't understand why the group text function

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:34

Oh, God.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:35

doesn't have a BCC.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:37

You know, it's twenty, twenty two.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:39

We've had iPhones.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:41

I iMessage for a while.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:43

I have to update my phone all the time.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:45

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:46

All kinds of things.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:46

I just updated my phone recently cause the new iPhone came out.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:50

So now it's self-destructing as they do.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:54

And I don't understand, this seems like a very basic feature.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:57

Why is there no BCC on iMessage?

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:02

I had a friend that I love very much who invited me to support him in an

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:09

And I will, and he texted, I don't know, 60 of us.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:13

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:14

And I get it because at this point, maybe we don't all have everybody's email and maybe it was just

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:24

And he did respectfully say in the message, like this is a mass text, please don't respond here.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:29

Like, if you have any questions, any whatever messaged me directly, this

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:34

Get this information.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:35

So I don't even blame him, but inevitably, even if people are just like Harding it,

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:51

You know what I mean?

Trey Gerrald: 00:03:52

I'm so angry.

Trey Gerrald: 00:03:53

I can't even, you know how I feel about textual communication group text I can't, but I've

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:02

That would be really smart because sometimes people are more private about

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:10

But yeah, I hear you.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:11

That's a great complaint.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:13

You know, please never group text me, but if you are going to just, don't

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:18

Just don't, you know?

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:20

Alright.

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:20

Complaint lodged.

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:22

How about you?

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:22

Trey lay it on.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:23

So I sort of have a similar vein here about other people's

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:30

And this has become more prevalent probably since moving out of the

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:36

But I really, really hate it when people.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:40

Get to the register and they don't know what they want to order, or they aren't ready with

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:53

Why haven't you been using that time to prep?

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:56

Yes.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:57

if you're going to go to like shake shack, you're not going to get a certain lasagna.

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:02

You're going to get something that shake shack offers.

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:05

You probably already have some sort of idea of what it is you'll be ordering.

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:09

So why do you then have to be like, Hmm, what is it that I want also, like, if you're at

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:19

Why are you like asking questions?

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:22

It pains me, especially at a coffee shop.

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:24

That's why I love mobile ordering, but like, if you don't know what your order

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:32

It's just very inconsiderate.

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:33

I understand there's a delicate balance between being patient and letting people live their

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:48

When it's your turn.

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:49

That's all.

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:49

I really, it really bugs me.

Chelsey Donn: 00:05:52

Uh, I come lately completely hear you.

Chelsey Donn: 00:05:56

Interestingly, I'm of two minds about this

Trey Gerrald: 00:05:59

knew you would be.

Chelsey Donn: 00:05:59

here.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:01

Well, here's where I am.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:02

I am 1000% with you on like the stop clogging up the chain.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:07

There is no reason to clog.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:09

I am in there.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:10

I know my order like that is it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:13

And then we're out and let's get the next person.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:16

The second way, I will just empathize with people, especially with New York city is I

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:39

Cause they clearly ordered.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:41

Every single day.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:42

And I had never been there before and there's someone behind me going like, come on, I ready.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:46

And I was just like, oh, I don't know what I'm doing, but I gotta be honest.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:50

It took me like about two weeks and then I was the c'mon already lady.

Chelsey Donn: 00:06:54

So I get it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:06:56

No.

Trey Gerrald: 00:06:56

I recognize that, especially if there is a very specific menu with tons of tweaks

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:10

That is very intimidating.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:11

I recognize that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:12

but other than that, I gray, like let's get on with it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:16

Well, at least be like aware that other people are waiting, especially when it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:21

comes to like Starbucks.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:22

Most Americans understand Starbucks at this point.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:25

We've had it long enough.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:26

You don't need to hem and haw.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:28

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:29

Completely agree.

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:30

Good complaint.

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:31

Trey.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:32

And also it reminds me of when I complained about, or maybe

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:37

Oh my God, elevator or the escalator escalator.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:40

there's a compromise about the escalator.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:42

If you're going to like take us in moment to not walk, move to the right

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:51

You know, it's like maybe take a little time to look at the menu before you get in the

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:59

All right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:59

Well, I appreciate this opportunity to get that off my chest.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:03

It is.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:04

Part of the liveness that lives inside of me.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:07

So, you know, I feel some levity now.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:09

So why Chelsey?

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:10

Why don't we get into some other people's live witness?

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:12

Are you ready to jump into some online Review!?

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:15

Oh my God.

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:15

I would love that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:17

As you know, we are your trusty Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:20

Queens.

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:21

We each bring in our view from the internet that we feel needs to be inspected.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:25

We read you the Review!, we break it down and then we rate the impact of the

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:33

It is a very Regal process that we call.

VOICEOVER: 00:08:35

Assess That Kvetch

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:37

And today, Chelsey, you're first,

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:41

it's an honor.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:42

take it away.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:43

RQ-C.

VOICEOVER: 00:08:46

Review That Review.

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:50

So today I have a TripAdvisor review of Niagara falls where I've never been.

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:57

It is a one dot Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:59

written by K G B B Y guy.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:08

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:09

agree on something for the.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:11

KGBBY GUY.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:14

KGBBYGUY

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:15

KGB.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:16

Oh, cage.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:17

The KGB is not like

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:19

there's two BS,

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:21

KGBBYGUY,

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:23

KGBBYGUY.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:24

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:24

KGBBYGUY.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:26

Got it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:27

All right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:28

So this is KGBBYGUYs one dot review of Niagara Falls.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:33

Title, a natural wonder destroyed by development and greed.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:39

Oh,

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:40

Obviously the Falls themselves are gorgeous and would leave anybody awestruck.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:46

But I honestly don't think it's worth visiting unless you are already passing through.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:53

Why?

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:54

Because human development has encroached right up to the falls edge on both sides of the river.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:02

There is no sense of nature, no respect for the local ecosystem.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:08

There are tacky casinos, observation towers, and crummy chain store restaurants within

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:21

Now I'm not against people making a penny.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:24

And I wouldn't mind if all of these attractions were in a nearby town, but couldn't, they have

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:34

Could you imagine stumbling onto the falls after traveling a wooded path?

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:41

With a deer and chipmunks scurrying about!

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:45

You hear the rumbling as you near, and then through a natural clearing: BAM!

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:52

The most massive movement of water on earth!

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:56

But Nope, you park in a lot.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:58

Walk 30 feet, take some damn selfies and then go eat a cheeseburger at the Hard Rock Cafe.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:07

This place is utterly indescribably depressing.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:15

Wow.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:17

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:18

I learned a lot in this Review!.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:20

I feel emotionally stirred by this review by KGBbyguy, you know, at first

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:29

Like, of course they're going to like surround the area with tourism shops, but

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:38

And so it is interesting if like the view.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:42

It's like, you're picking up like a hard rock cafe in the background.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:46

Like it's absurd.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:47

It's like not obstructing, but it's encroaching on this awe inspiring view.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:53

1000%.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:55

And I just want to say for reference, this was written it's.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:59

Oh, interesting.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:00

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:00

So they went, I'm sorry, I didn't read this part of the Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:04

cause I thought it was the date.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:05

So, so they went to Niagara falls, January, 2019.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:11

They wrote this Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:13

September 14th, 2019.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:16

So eight months later, but they're owning up to it at the top.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:22

You know, they're like, it took me eight months to come down from the depression of

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:29

I really liked this Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:31

and I really like KGBBYGUY.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:34

I even liked the little moment of like, imagine, you know, because I think it's true.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:39

Like I've never been to Niagara falls, but it is definitely on the bucket list.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:44

Like I'd like to go.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:46

And I think by reading this Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:48

I feel like I can prepare myself.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:51

What do you think about the tacky casinos?

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:53

it's funny.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:53

I wrote that down actually, because I love casinos?

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:57

Yeah, here,

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:59

yeah.

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:00

I mean, I don't know.

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:01

I, I also, you mentioned like, I w the experience of imagining myself as a chipmunk and just

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:14

I recognize the point here.

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:16

And I there's a lot of value because I do think that just simply reading KGBBYGUY's.

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:22

Review!

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:23

now have a new framework with which will ever experience Niagara falls.

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:28

So I am appreciative of that, but I also recognize there's nothing to be done about it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:34

So there's no point in being depressed about it because you can't change it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:39

Yeah, I guess so, but like, don't you think that if you read that,

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:45

maybe I would look and see, is there another way to see this?

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:48

Because I do think there is something very significant about seeing something that

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:01

You know, anything that is in a natural wonder that is going to remind me of, of,

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:12

Well, I've had friends that went to Egypt to see the pyramids.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:16

And they were saying like, just underneath the Sphinx as like a pizza hut.

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:20

Stop.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:21

like, you can only do so much with a horizon.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:24

You know what I mean?

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:24

Like if you're looking like you can't, how far out are you going to block buildings?

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:29

do we have to build a hard rock cafe and these casinos right up there saying, and

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:44

Yeah, which is unfortunate.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:46

I mean, I think there's nothing to be done, which is my point, but I recognize the value

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:54

Exactly.

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:55

Like, it's not, I'm not going to change Niagara falls, but like, for me, when I

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:01

I can really manage my expectations now because I, I would never have expected

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:07

But we are both like taken with KGBBYGUY as being truthful.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:13

I mean, we're really both receiving this as true.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:15

I am receiving.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:16

I do immediately.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:18

I don't know why.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:20

Trust, KGB, bigeye spelling.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:23

Very good.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:24

Really solid.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:26

Clearly did a pass takes reviewing seriously?

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:31

And then the humor here, like I do think like I'm depressed

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:36

think they're like leaning into being a little comic.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:39

Yeah, I, I think they gave us a little flavor.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:42

Yeah.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:42

I don't think it's a new slapping humor.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:44

Like they're going to be on a comedy central special anytime soon, but like, I get the point.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:49

Do you think this is common?

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:50

Do you think people commonly are having this thought?

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:53

I think so.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:54

Wait, does it say where KGBBYGUY is from?

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:57

near there picture.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:59

And interestingly enough, I'm just realizing, it says

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:03

So I guess this is the only Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:05

that they've written.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:07

And it's like them eight months to write it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:10

Well, I, I, like I said, I think they were in a depression for awhile.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:13

And then they said, I got to let the people now, because I would imagine, and again, I'm

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:27

So maybe they were like, I don't think that this was something that I read about and I want

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:33

I mean the only like devil's advocate here is like, does it seem as

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:45

And they're trying to like,

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:46

foul the name of Niagara falls.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:48

I don't think so.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:49

no, I think like if we were in a court of law, I would say

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:57

Anything else we should consider before crowning KGBBYGUY?

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:01

I, I like

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:02

I'm

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:03

Yeah, let's do

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:04

me.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:04

Chill.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:04

Let's do it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:05

All right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:05

So Chelsey and I each have Our own set of zero to five crown cards and an effort

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:11

We will simultaneously reveal our.

VOICEOVER: 00:17:15

The Queens are Tabulating.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:24

Oh wow.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:25

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:25

Queens are unanimous four and a half crowns, four and a half crowns.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:28

Why four and a half from you?

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:31

I guess I kind of wanted to be generous and make it a five, but I took

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:38

I do think that the experience of being there actually will live inside of me.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:43

And if I ever go to Niagara falls, this will flash in my memory.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:47

So that's pretty amazing, but I don't think that the humor level was so outrageous.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:53

Like Nayar will always live with me more front of mind.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:55

sure.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:56

But I love KGBBYGUY.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:59

I'm a little afraid that they're part of like Russian Soviet union situation.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:02

But I think that they really add a lot of value to the expectation framework for going here.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:09

And I mean, I think that's pretty queenly.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:11

What about you Why did you say four and a half?

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:14

I mean, you literally took the words right out of my mouth.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:16

Ditto.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:17

I agree with everything.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:19

Just couldn't give the full five crown Review Queen because there are, yeah,

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:29

And that was really the only reason why I didn't make RGB by guy of Review Queen.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:36

But other than that, like really solid Review!.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:40

I think you said RGB, Ruth Bader.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:43

Ah, I didn't mean RGB, although rip RGB.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:48

Uh, LOL R O F L E T T Y

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:52

There's a lot of letters, guys.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:53

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:00

Well, why don't we do some more letters and BRS.

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:03

Good.

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:07

Chelsey Donn: 00:21:09

Trey, where is your Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:41

from this week?

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:42

I have a one star review from amazon.com written by Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:48

Scoobers S C O O B E R S.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:52

And this is for.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:54

Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:54

Scoobers

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:56

The original Slinky brand giant metal Slinky kids spring toy,

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:03

Um, did you have one of those?

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:05

of course.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:06

Me too.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:07

I definitely bent the crap out of it though.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:10

Um,

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:10

Well, all right, here we go.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:11

Sorry, before we start, do we think that Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:13

Scoobers is a teacher?

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:14

I don't think I usually see Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:16

Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:16

Scoobers can you spell it?

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:19

I just did.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:19

Oh, sorry.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:20

I was writing.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:21

Oh, S C O O B E R S

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:25

And I think your question might be

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:27

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:28

Yes.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:28

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:29

Can't wait.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:30

Okay.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:30

So here we go.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:31

This is Mr.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:32

Scoobers one-star review for the original Slinky.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:35

The subject is believe the bad reviews,

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:39

Okay.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:39

and this is a verified purchase written and February of 2017.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:44

Okay.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:45

I didn't believe all the other reviews that this Slinky is, caps, NOT the

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:53

Well, it's NOT!

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:56

It appears that the Poof Slinky brand, which originated in the great state of Pennsylvania

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:08

The original Slinky, according to Wikipedia had 98 coils.

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:14

This Slinky has 87 coils.

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:18

It is not long enough to climb downstairs, which was the express purpose

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:25

While, to Alex Products's credit, this product is still made in the USA!

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:31

Alex should return to the original design, or there will be a whole generation

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:44

After receiving this item, I contacted Alex Products and they sent me this reply.

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:51

Quote.

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:52

dot dot dot.

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:53

I would like to clarify.

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:55

The original Slinky design is from 1945 and is still being made in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania on

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:07

Poof Products acquired James Industry in 1988.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:12

Over the years, only two changes have occurred to the original Slinky.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:16

End clamps have been added for safety and the length has been

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:25

Length did not change the walking ability.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:28

The diameter has never changed.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:31

Alex Brands is following the same guidelines as Poof Products.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:35

Now poof Slinky LLC.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:39

Below is what you need to make the Slinky walk.

One: 00:27:43

Steps can not have carpet on them and they have to be seven and

Two: 00:27:53

A ramp can be used four inches long and 10 inches high.

Two: 00:27:58

After checking with our factory, all Slinkies walk down several stairs into their boxes off the line.

Two: 00:28:06

End quote.

Two: 00:28:07

First of all, my steps are not particularly deep and they measure eight and a half inches.

Two: 00:28:14

But the Slinky I purchased when my daughter was little, parentheses, probably 15 years ago,

Two: 00:28:23

And I DO believe that reducing the number of coils has changed the ability to go down stairs.

Two: 00:28:30

A greater number of coils allows the Slinky to stretch longer.

Two: 00:28:34

But, whatever.

Two: 00:28:36

Dot dot dot.

Two: 00:28:37

Alex Products told me to return the product directly to Amazon.

Two: 00:28:41

So.

Two: 00:28:42

I guess I will.

Chelsey Donn: 00:28:51

Wow.

Chelsey Donn: 00:28:51

Okay.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:52

what in the world?

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:53

It's like a science, like report?!

Chelsey Donn: 00:28:55

Yeah, I was going to say, so I definitely think that Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:28:58

Scoobers is a teacher based on the amount of analysis that was done though.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:02

I do think it's interesting that apparently they miscalculated from 83 to 87, unless Alex is wrong.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:09

Well, that's my question.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:10

How do you determine a coil?

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:12

just hold from one point and then like the neck, when you reach it in a

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:18

think.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:19

I would think so also, like how do they know that the original was 98?

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:24

Do they still have the original Slinky?

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:26

And like, it doesn't sound like that's published knowledge.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:30

That sounds like, like, like we were saying that scientific data, because in the email

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:37

in the email response, they say it went from 96 to 83, but Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:43

Scooper says I went from 98 to 87.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:46

So somehow both parties are measuring differently.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:50

I was wondering if you would count the first and last coil, cause

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:56

So maybe Alex isn't counting those two.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:59

Cause that would account for the difference,

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:02

does that half actually denote where it starts and that's your 1, 2, 3 point,

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:09

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:09

I don't know

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:10

or is it a half?

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:11

And you add the beginning of the

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:12

it's half and a half and then it's a one, cause it's two halves.

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:15

Also, I would imagine the end caps would help make it walk.

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:19

Also, I feel like all of my metal ones got bent and feel like There was a huge push

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:29

There was!

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:30

Those rainbow ones and stuff.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:33

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:34

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:34

This is funny to me.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:35

I want to applaud Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:37

Scoobers on all the research that they did.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:40

I- very detailed.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:42

They did hit on the nostalgia of the product, which I think was.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:46

I think it was an interesting choice to copy and paste the entire exchange with Alex Toy Company.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:54

This is a one-star review?

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:56

Hmm.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:58

It was very informative.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:59

Like it was interesting.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:00

I feel like I learned a lot of things in that email alone.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:02

Like this Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:03

is so much more than a one-star review.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:05

It's like, I've, I've like probably paid for tours that gave me less, less

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:11

I know that they're still using the same machinery since what was, was, uh, 1945 that, uh, the

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:21

You know, all of these, this interesting data.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:24

I mean, it does feel to me like a blog rather than a Review!.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:28

I I'm glad that Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:30

Scoobers said Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:31

Scoobers.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:31

Cause I feel like I just went to school, what I was wondering, and I don't really

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:43

And I agree, like I did have fun with this toy as a kid, but I wonder like if I had

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:59

Scoobers, who's attributing that, but kids today, aren't going to be like, I can't wait to like, put

Trey Gerrald: 00:32:11

Well, that is a really Rick question because it kind of makes me think,

Trey Gerrald: 00:32:17

We would try to like, do that with cracker jacks or whatever.

Trey Gerrald: 00:32:19

Like, and it just never was interesting.

Trey Gerrald: 00:32:21

Like I was like, wait, I have to pick these up before it bounces the

Trey Gerrald: 00:32:25

But the Slinky was, interesting to me, but Yeah,

Trey Gerrald: 00:32:28

I imagine if I gave this to my nephew, he'd be like, uh, okay, can I watch paw patrol?

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:34

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:34

Is this gonna, is this a drone?

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:36

Is it going to fly?

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:37

Like, what is it?

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:38

What is that?

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:39

Yeah, so I did wonder, like, I think that there is with.

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:44

Uh, doubt, you know, a lot of emotional history that's coming from the passion of this Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:53

and the extreme due diligence that was done to, you know, express.

Chelsey Donn: 00:32:59

No, this is not the same product that you had when you were.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:03

It's also interesting because ultimately the company.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:08

Like Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:09

Scoobers purchased this from Amazon then reached out to the company.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:12

The company said just to return It directly, if it's not working.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:15

Cause like, these are all of our details and then Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:18

Scoobers returned it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:19

So ultimately nostalgia aside, 15 years ago, it worked on the eight inch steps and now it's not.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:28

And somehow.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:29

Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:29

Scoobers is counting coils less than so, you know, also I loved playing with Slinkies

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:42

Like there was enjoyment for the Slinky for me, other than going down steps, you

Chelsey Donn: 00:33:47

I don't know like Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:33:49

Scoobers strategy, but I wonder if you kind of got it going.

Chelsey Donn: 00:33:53

I wondered about the below comment

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:56

...blow?!

Chelsey Donn: 00:33:57

Below is what you need.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:58

Oh below.

Trey Gerrald: 00:33:59

I thought you said blow, but Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:34:01

Scoobers is, you know, they're saying it has to be seven to five eighths to eight inches.

Trey Gerrald: 00:34:06

And Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:34:07

Cooper says there's this eight and a half, but it worked 15 years ago.

Trey Gerrald: 00:34:10

So it seems like Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:34:11

Scoobers is saying your two point steps are not accurate, so you're lying.

Trey Gerrald: 00:34:16

So.

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:16

I mean yes, but regardless of whether or not it worked before, and

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:26

She is outside of the range of what Alex is presenting.

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:30

it's like if it did work before, it's almost like it was a fluke.

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:33

If the product isn't designed to work for that kind of step.

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:37

So it's like, yeah, maybe.

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:39

This product worked for your steps because it was a little bit longer.

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:43

And like, that was enough to sort of put it the edge, which I understand is the entire point.

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:48

But, and again, I don't know if this is written anywhere on the box about this measurement,

Chelsey Donn: 00:34:58

Scoobers' steps and they gave a range that was, you know, outside of it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:03

It's interesting to me because I do wonder because they have the dimensions,

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:11

It must be because like we were saying, other people are buying this

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:16

And there is that moment.

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:17

When you think about the Slinky, that of course you think about it going down the stairs, even if

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:25

Like that's like the, that's the image on the box.

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:27

exactly.

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:28

So like I get it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:30

I would venture to say that this is the most valuable Review!

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:33

I've ever read.

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:34

Wow, trey.

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:36

That is quite a statement

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:38

Well, Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:38

Scoobers like goes into like outrageous research paper detail.

Chelsey Donn: 00:35:42

she does, but do we think it's like a bit much

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:46

Well that I am curious about the Karen-dar here, because

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:52

Like I do believe Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:54

Scooper is based on the amount of effort and due diligence here.

Trey Gerrald: 00:35:58

spelling and grammar is totally fine.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:00

I don't think there's a single issue.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:02

Beautifully punctuated and formatted.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:06

I don't think it's humorous, but, in the experience here it's like, well, I don't

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:13

Like why are Mrs.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:15

Scooper steps eight and a half?

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:17

But this product is made for seven to five, eight to eight.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:20

Like, like now I'm

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:21

well, D and she also said that her steps were carpet.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:24

Did she say that or

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:25

No, but they say it won't work on steps, but I had carpeted

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:29

I was going to say I had carpeted steps and I did it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:32

And you know what, to be honest, I don't think it really worked all the way down

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:40

All right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:40

That's why I'm codependent today.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:42

It's because of the Slinky.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:44

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:45

You just need someone to push you along.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:47

All right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:48

Did we consider everything?

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:49

I feel like I might be ready to crown,

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:51

I think so too.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:52

Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:53

Goober.

Trey Gerrald: 00:36:54

...scoobers,

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:55

scoober Jesus.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:56

What is wrong with me, Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:58

Scoober.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:58

I'm so sorry, Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:36:59

Gilbert.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:00

Don't send me to the principal office.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:02

I know your name.

Trey Gerrald: 00:37:03

You're not going to get a hall pass to go to recess.

Trey Gerrald: 00:37:07

All right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:37:08

Let's rate and review this.

Trey Gerrald: 00:37:09

Let's do

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:09

Okay.

VOICEOVER: 00:37:10

The Queens are Tabulating.

VOICEOVER: 00:37:16

Total Score.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:18

Oh, interesting.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:19

I was not expecting that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:20

So Trey is holding up three and a half crowns and I'm holding up four crowns.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:23

Based on what you said about this being the most informative Review!

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:28

you've ever read.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:29

I was starting to think maybe you were going to make Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:32

Scoobers a Review Queen.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:34

I'm shocked.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:35

Trey.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:35

I did four crowns because.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:37

Really, and this happens a lot.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:39

You, you kind of convinced me because of the, all of the information that is involved here.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:45

And at the end of the day, when we're assessing these reviews, it was very readable.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:50

I learned a lot.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:51

There was a lot of information there.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:53

Again, similar to Niagara falls.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:55

My expectations are clear.

Chelsey Donn: 00:37:59

I think that they did a good job.

Chelsey Donn: 00:38:01

And for that reason, I wanted to award Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:38:05

Scoobers accordingly and give her four crowns.

Chelsey Donn: 00:38:08

Why did you end up going with three and a half?

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:10

No, I hear you.

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:11

And I know I kind of pulled the rug there, but I think that there, this is full of the most value

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:19

But I gave it middle of the road because ultimately I think we're overthinking a Slinky.

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:24

It's a toy!

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:25

Like, and like, who cares?

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:28

Like kids aren't going to want the Slinky anyway.

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:30

So ultimately I don't think it's going to have that much of an impact, except now I'm sort of

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:39

So that's why I gave at three and a half, because I feel like it's a Slinky, like and Slinkies

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:47

I don't know.

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:47

But it's like, we're not building a battleship for war.

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:50

It's like, this is a little toy to like entertain.

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:54

It's not that deep.

Trey Gerrald: 00:38:55

So I said three and a half.

Chelsey Donn: 00:38:56

I hear you.

Chelsey Donn: 00:38:57

I think that I would be because there were so many people that liked it as

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:02

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:03

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:03

It makes me think that Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:05

Scoobers is not the only one that is as passionate, right?

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:11

It makes sense.

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:12

It does make sense.

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:12

And I appreciate the Review!, but I think I'm going to forget it in a couple of days.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:16

Fair enough.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:18

All right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:18

Mrs.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:18

Scoobers.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:19

Thanks for taking us to class.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:20

We

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:20

Thank you.

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:21

All right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:22

My queen, We have reached the most Regal portion of our show Chelsey.

Trey Gerrald: 00:39:25

Who are you inducting today for?

VOICEOVER: 00:39:29

My Royal Highness!

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:30

Thank you for asking Trey.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:32

So today I want to induct GPS.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:36

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:37

Now any of my friends who are listening to the show will know that I have

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:44

And that is like the understatement of the century.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:47

And my life really changed with GPS.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:50

I don't understand.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:51

Anybody lived a life where they had to use a map while they were driving.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:57

If you have a copilot, it's one thing.

Chelsey Donn: 00:39:59

But if you're driving by yourself, how can you be expected to do that?

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:03

Or remember when we used to print.

Trey Gerrald: 00:40:04

MapQuest.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:06

it before you would get into your car or, you know, even when I was going

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:12

So like had to memorize the route.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:16

And if I would divert in any way from that route that I had memorized, I was in serious trouble.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:23

Like it was really, really bad.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:25

I've ended up in some insane situations because I took a wrong turn somewhere in Philadelphia.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:31

So like, I don't know what I personally would do without GPS.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:36

I'm a Google maps girl, but I want to give this Royal Highness to all the

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:43

And I also think there's a safety protection thing there.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:46

Like I'm sure it's, you know, gotten people out of maybe a dangerous situation or like, If there's

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:54

It recalculates.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:56

You know, I think it's probably responsible for saving some lives as well.

Chelsey Donn: 00:40:59

So for that reason, happy to induct GPS as My Royal Highness

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:06

Definitely.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:07

I definitely have some stories about GPS for our After show episode,

Chelsey Donn: 00:41:10

and we, I can't wait.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:11

but yes, I agree.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:13

My dad was a traveling salesman for the majority of my life he.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:17

Always had one of those giant map books.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:20

That's sat in the pocket behind the driver's seat with a pencil, like permanently inside of it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:26

And he would map out with a pencil, like which exits and stuff.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:29

Like I still that's like balancing a checkbook, math to me.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:34

I have No, idea how that works, but definitely wonderful.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:37

Thank you GPS, wow.

Chelsey Donn: 00:41:39

What would I do?

Chelsey Donn: 00:41:40

Certainly.

Chelsey Donn: 00:41:41

What would we do without you?

Chelsey Donn: 00:41:42

I don't even

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:43

It's kind of like phone numbers.

Trey Gerrald: 00:41:44

Like I don't even have the ability to remember a phone number anymore because my phone does it

Chelsey Donn: 00:41:49

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:41:50

That's crazy.

VOICEOVER: 00:41:53
