They first talk about cocaine in ep 34. I don't remember when it is, but I'm excited for that episode.

I wonder if you can find a can or two online
It's called something else now, can't remember what though.

I can understand why

quote:

Cocaine was pulled from U.S. shelves as a result of theFDA's decision that Cocaine "was illegally marketing the drink as both a street drug alternative and a dietary supplement".[1] Redux Beverages began working on a new name for the product immediately. At the end of May, 2007, the Redux team decided to change the name to "No Name:" energy drink, with the new can label. On 17 June 2007, the drink was redistributed in the U.S. under the new labeling.

The drink is available online and in local beverage stores around the U.S. The beverage is also available in Europe, where it has always been sold as Cocaine Energy Drink rather than "No Name" (as it was briefly sold in the U.S). According to Cocaine's official website, the drink is now being sold in three varieties: one being Original, one being "Cut" (which lacks the purported "throat-burning" sensation of Original), and one being "Free", which contains no sugar. However, on July 9, 2008 Redux Beverages received a FDA Warning Letter indicating that they had objection to the fonts that Redux licensed for the front of their product Cocaine Energy Supplement. The fonts in question have been removed from production and will be replaced with new fonts. In addition to the fonts, they have also removed the term Cut from the mild version of the supplement and have replaced it with a blue can. They also have another flavor called Spicy (which comes in a Red Can)

Certainly more effective, it's probably easier to get actual cocaine than it is the drink.

I had a can of cocaine when they were new. It tasted like cough syrup and peppers.

There was a drip, and it did burn.

No. That was at the peak of my energy drink drinking, and cocaine is probably the worst I've ever had.

Worst I've ever had was Spike, which I think they actually mentioned once in the early goings. That poo poo was fuuucked. In flavor and active ingredients. Two of those in a day and I thought I was going to have issues.

A cursory search of eBay shows there are plenty of cans of Cocaine available on the market, if you are looking to gently caress with a 5 year old energy drink.

My brain is scrambled from listening to both recent episodes and working my way up from 06 so I have no idea when this was.

I think it's a hilarious observation that in 10-20 years time, tats are going to be the complete opposite of what they once were.

It's going to be fascinating seeing how teenagers view them.

I'm gonna order one of those shirts by writing down my shirt size on a napkin, stapling a check onto it, and throwing it in the trash. I'll probably get it around the same time as any order on the website.

42 is one of my favorites. I also liked Jonathan telling us about his hate of Christmas music.

278 is an all time classic. It's got Seth comparing Transformers 3 to Harold Lloyd, and the pilot who killed old mom, new mom, and sister, while sparing his son and himself in two separate plane crashes.

HEY DAD! YOU'RE A WICKED BAD PILOT!

edit: corrected episode number, actually 278
