I did want to mention, just in case you probably have been hearing it, if you hear pounding on walls in the background of this podcast, it's because I have people working on my house, directly behind my office, and there's no way around it. Yeah, well I mean, somebody knows that in our audience, I'm sure. Oh, it's made out of the same stuff they make tequila out of, maybe? Anyway. Pulque is made out of the fermented sap of the maguey plant. It's not, I was thinking of a different thing. He wakes up every morning at 3:30, jumps in the shower with his Smells Like Productivity. That's exactly the soap I would imagine you would have.īen wakes up every morning. Well, if you want my personal recommendation for a Duke Cannon product to try, try the Smells Like Productivity soap. But it sounds like it's in the spirit of thick beer. But I always wanted to try Pulque, which is a traditional Mexican beverage that. So it's like, is that really better? I don't know. You put it in your hand, and then it gets hit by a little water and it just slides right off of your hand, just like a solid object, and down the drain. And also, I mean, I've had thick shampoo and stuff, and honest. I like that it pokes fun at itself at least, because let's be honest, I don't think the effectiveness of soap has anything to do with its thickness. You can't get it now, because it was just a one-time kind of thing, but keep an eye on Duke Cannon throughout the year for fun, crazy stuff like that, and.

And so, I'm like, "Yeah, they really did it this time." And we bought some, because hey, we thought, "Check that out." And it's great. Anyway, it was very green and minty, and they did it for St. But this year, they actualy did one of those joke things, but then they actually did it.

So you can go to Duke Cannon all year long to get that kind of funny stuff. And it's like these old-school 70s beer commercials, and these guys are drinking these beers that are just super, super thick. And a video, actually, I should link to the show notes. The lumberjack in the woods with his soap, you know?Īnd so, they put out this set of posters, these fake posters of thick.

And they're all about manly stuff, right? So they have this body wash that's really thick, the consistency is really thick because they think runny body washes are for wimps. And they typically do funny kinds of fake things, like. Well, not quite April Fools', but Duke Cannon is a company that sells soaps and things like that, personal care items. I really like it when companies do April Fools' product announcements, where it's like, they're announcing something that would be amazing, but also it's obviously impossible because it's just too amazing to exist in the world. It's like, they're not actually trying to trick anybody, they're just being silly. So, yeah, nothing particularly clever or great, so. I started reading a press release or something, I'm like, oh, that's ridiculous. I dislike the whole notion of April Fools' Day, so I only saw three or four. No, I never see any good ones because there are never any good ones. Yeah, well it sounds like Ben avoided falling for some, so did you see any good ones, Ben? Maybe people are still sort of hesitant to do that. No April Fools'." And so, maybe that just came up. I mean, last year there was that whole thing where people were just like, "April Fools' is canceled. Because otherwise, I've been duped left and right, and my whole world is false at this point. So I'm hoping that that's the reason I don't. Now, granted, I kind of checked out yesterday and I went for a super long walk in Portland, just because it was sunny and I wanted to get outside, so. I'm a little worried, because I didn't notice any April Fools' lies. All the dumb stuff that happens on April Fools' Day. And I am so excited because I survived April Fools' Day without falling for anything online. You know, today is April second, as we record this.
