[09:15 - 11:53]

5. The Great Cheetle Debate: Snack Foods & Cultural Icons

[15:44 - 21:57]

• Paul and Storm’s jingle introduces the “Cheetle” topic:

  • “If you want to turn your daddy parts orange, eat some Cheetos and watch some porn.” ([15:46])

• Chris reads a news item announcing Cheetos and Doritos' moves to remove artificial flavors/colors (and, consequentially, the bright powdery dust aka “Cheetle”).

    "If they're going to taste the exact same but they somehow got rid of the powder..." ([18:30])

• The group reflects on the Cheetos branding (Chester Cheetah), jokes about albino versions of the mascot, and dips into absurd tangents (e.g., Edgar Winter’s pink eyes).

  • The conversation ends with whether PepsiCo can truly maintain flavor without the dust, and why corporate messaging spins this as a “cleaner eating” convenience.
  • Memorable Quote:

    "I don't want my Cheetos to be clean."
    — Dave ([19:19])

• Josh shares a fun fact: Canada’s town of Cheadle boasts a 17-foot Cheetos statue, honoring “Cheetle.”

[Guest/Performer]

Rocks. My name is Leonard Le. Some say that I'm a geek I've got a lot of pimples and braces on my teeth. I still live with my mother she gives me lots of hugs. But I'd rather have a girlfriend with a bouncy set of jugs. Cause I've never been laid. I try to talk to girls but I'm afraid I've seen every Star Trek movie ever made. But I've never been laid. No, he's never been laid. My pants are polyester and all my shirts are plaid. I'm always constipated My breath is really bad. I need to find a woman who wants to date a nerd. Cause women have vaginas. At least that's what I've learned. I've never been laid. I try to talk to girls but I'm afraid I've seen every Star Trek movie ever made. But I never been laid.

[Chris]

No, he's never been laid.

[Guest/Performer]

He wears a pocket protector and a dickey I keep my boogers and there's wax in my ears. This young man could sure use a quickie. I've got a boner that's been throbbing seven. I've got every action figure from Star wars on my shelf. I dress up like Darth Vader while pleasuring myself I'm not a total loser. Did I forget to mention I made out with a Klingon at a Star Trek convention? But I. I've never been laid. I try to talk to girls but I'm afraid I've seen every Star Trek movie ever made. But I've never been. I never been lame.

[Bob Kevoian]

Gee, I hope that Klingon I made out with was a girl Klingon. Missed something. Here you go.

[Josh Arnold]

We'll try to catch you up.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is Bob and Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

Extra. You know, we've had some surprises lately. In case you didn't hear about it Friday. The very fine actor and now my. I guess he's my new favorite human being.

[Bob Kevoian]

I thought you were gonna say new best friend there for a second.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, no, no, no. Hugh. What's his name? I forgot his name.

[Bob Kevoian]

Jack.

[Chris]

This is awesome that you forgot his name.

[Bob Kevoian]

That is really awesome that he's looking around for help. This is great.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm looking for help. I'M kidding. If you.

[Bob Kevoian]

Jack.

[Chris]

No, you're not kidding.

[Bob Kevoian]

You forgot it. Okay, it's fine.

[Josh Arnold]

It's fine if you did. That was a great surprise, wasn't it?

[Bob Kevoian]

It was. It was. It was wonderful.

[Josh Arnold]

And you guys always see you poo poo on my surprise.

[Chris]

Well, you had nothing to do with that surprise. Just admit that you had zero.

[Dave]

Zero.

[Chris]

No, no, no.

[Dave]

I don't want to throw you under the bus, bud. But why didn't anything to do with it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why do you dislike surprises? It seems like you would.

[Josh Arnold]

I hate surprises.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know why that is.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm saying. But you guys were indeed surprised. I'm not taking credit for it.

[Dave]

I'm just saying.

[Josh Arnold]

I. I told you.

[Chris]

I don't know about that.

[Bob Kevoian]

I promoted to tell you something, but between all of us in here, we've got one pretty good brain. Okay. And you're not going to pull anything.

[Josh Arnold]

I said we. I've got a surprise coming up and you guys.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Oh, you surprised Joey.

[Josh Arnold]

Then Hugh Jackman walks in here and you guys. Oh, that was cool. How about the time? How about the time Joe Theisman. Okay, that was pretty. You're one of your favorite human beings all of a sudden.

[Bob Kevoian]

And he still is. But to my point, that's two times in 40 years.

[Chris]

It's a grocery store cake or a live Kingsman album.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Or somebody.

[Bob Kevoian]

Or. Or some.

[Josh Arnold]

Wait a second.

[Bob Kevoian]

Cashier you've met with an interesting voice or some server that one eyes lower than the other.

[Josh Arnold]

Or how about the guy that could mimic backwards records?

[Bob Kevoian]

Bad. Real bad.

[Josh Arnold]

Exciting.

[Dave]

You brought him in here?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah. He did it live for us one morning. Oh, it's great. So I couldn't even deal with it by making fun of it. I had to sit here and go, yes, that is amazing.

[Josh Arnold]

It's quite a skill. We'll see. But one of these days, one of these days, I think David Rush could walk in here, maybe do a world record in our parking lot. Wouldn't that be great?

[Chris]

You know what?

[Bob Kevoian]

One of the things that you did, it wasn't a surprise, but. And we arranged it, was the bassoon quartet. I enjoyed that very much. And you. And you keep saying you're going to bring them back, whatever happens.

[Josh Arnold]

I just, I just saw my bassoon buddy the other day.

[Chris]

What do you run into a bassoon buddy? We've gotten to the point where we need two shows now. The Chicken Tom show.

[Dave]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chris]

Followed by everyone else.

[Dave]

Yeah, I'm with you.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

The bassoon show.

[Chris]

Happily do 10 to 2 okay. Because if you're going to keep pimping him with some of this stuff.

[Dave]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Dave]

Just as guilty as he is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Am I.

[Dave]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Am I making trouble now?

[Dave]

Yes. Would you continue to set him up for the same stuff?

[Chris]

You pimped the cat story?

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm going to take a look at what you're saying. We all know the cat.

[Josh Arnold]

All right, well, let's move forward here.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you have any more letters?

[Bob Kevoian]

Dear Bob and Tom Show. I'm 44 years old, and I've been listening to you for as long as I can remember. I drive a white 1997 Chevy Silverado pickup. I regularly get waves from other people driving a Silverado. I always wave. Even if I. If I don't wave first. Oh, I always wave.

[Chris]

So they've got a kinship.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that a thing, or is he just trying to.

[Bob Kevoian]

It doesn't have to be a thing thing. If it's a thing between him and another Silverado driver, it's a thing that.

[Josh Arnold]

Because the Jeep is a thing.

[Dave]

The Jeep is a thing.

[Josh Arnold]

And it's. But again, it's. It's just the wrangler people.

[Dave]

I don't know. There's people now saying that you don't. The. The wave is for all Jeeps and the ducks are for all Jeep.

[Chris]

I don't think a Wrangler should wave to a Jeep Cherokee. I don't think.

[Josh Arnold]

I think.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. That's. That's mixing the.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Just on price point alone. They have. No.

[Dave]

You wave at people with your same car.

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely.

[Chris]

I know I do.

[Dave]

I wave. Yes, you might. You're not friendly enough.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm wa. Yeah. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey. That's what I do. Josh and I. Josh and I sat down and we made a list of things that were wrong with me. Number one was I wasn't friendly enough.

[Dave]

So was I not invited to this meeting?

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you'd be too biased. And my point is. So Josh said.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

And he gave me a couple tips of being friendly. And one of them, I think it was, number three, I should wave to someone driving the same car that I am.

[Chris]

That's exactly right.

[Josh Arnold]

I always wave at. When I go slowly through construction zones, and I do drive slowly because those people are working.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I always wave, and 99 of the time, they wave back.

[Dave]

Oh, I always wave and smile at them, too.

[Bob Kevoian]

I. I wave at them, too.

[Dave]

No, you don't.

[Bob Kevoian]

See? And she doesn't believe that.

[Chris]

That was number seven.

[Bob Kevoian]

That was number seven.

[Chris]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't think. I. I just. I think the Jeep. Waving to other jeeps is a. That's their thing.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

That they invented and.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes. But you could have other models.

[Josh Arnold]

I, I drove a. I had three or four actually Jeep Grand Cherokees.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Over the course of time and I was doing it and then someone explained to me, no, no, no.

[Dave]

Yeah. I have a Grand Cherokee now too, and I don't wave another grand.

[Josh Arnold]

You only. You're only supposed to do it if you're a wrangler.

[Dave]

Yes. And the. But the unfortunate part is when you're not driving a Jeep and you see another Jeep and you forget you're not. You're in. You're not in your Jeep.

[Josh Arnold]

That's kind of my.

[Dave]

Kind of. Yeah, I did that. I do that a lot.

[Chris]

Chick. I have heard ever. Growing up, anybody with the same making model if they waved the other person. Okay, so is a thing. But I. Yeah, but it's definitely a Jeep thing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chris]

Jeep wrangler thing.

[Bob Kevoian]

And the duck thing is definitely a Jeep thing. Right.

[Dave]

Yeah. Getting ducked. Yeah.

[Chris]

That's why I've never. I love a Jeep wrangler, but it's why I've never bought one. Because I don't want to be found in some. Honestly, I don't want to be found slammed up against a telephone pole with my corpse surrounded by a bunch of bloody rubber ducks.

[Josh Arnold]

So I'll get together and wish me well today.

[Chris]

Well, we always wish you well.

[Bob Kevoian]

Do you have the. Some sort of.

[Josh Arnold]

I got the. The blood test today for the physical

[Bob Kevoian]

and looking up under the hood and

[Josh Arnold]

I want to make sure I get the good phlebotomist.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

For those of you that have ever had blood drawn. There's two types of people in this world. There are good phlebotomists and then the ones that can't find a vein.

[Bob Kevoian]

Unbelievable.

[Josh Arnold]

Let's face it, I've got better veins than your average heroin addict. And I just hoping he's got a

[Chris]

veins like Iggy Pop over there.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. Just.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm often remarked. Have you seen his veins? They're beautiful.

[Josh Arnold]

Last time it was a little rough after five tries.

[Chris]

You're a majestically vascular man.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm not a pincushion madam.

[Chris]

You know, the last time I got blood taken, it was somebody was being trained. The phlebotomist was.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, no.

[Chris]

I was like, oh, here we go. She was the finest phlebotomist I've ever had. I felt nothing. She immediately found the veins. So you just never know.

[Josh Arnold]

I was part of a one year study many years ago before they quit. Yeah.

[Chris]

You know what? We're never going to figure them out. Let's just.

[Bob Kevoian]

They were. Tell them we're close.

[Josh Arnold]

Every week. Every week I would go. And there were three sort of rotating phlebotomists. And the one was a magician. She would grab your arm and then you could barely feel anything touching. And then. And then there was Draculina.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey.

[Josh Arnold]

She did not have the.

[Bob Kevoian]

That seems like. Now, I don't want to speak out of turn, but it seems like that name would be a turn off for phlebotomist. I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

The one lady was. She. It was absolutely amazing. It was her great gift.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

But yes. I'll let you know how it goes.

[Chris]

You ever had a vein quit on you? I was halfway through and she. And all of a sudden my vein just stopped giving blood. She was like, oh, I'm gonna have to go to the other arm.

[Dave]

What?

[Bob Kevoian]

I've been told my veins not only move out of the way, but they flatten.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I don't know if that's just, you know, excuses that phlebotomists use, but. Yeah, it's kind of a pain to

[Josh Arnold]

find because I'm an adult baby. I can't look.

[Chris]

Yeah. I choose not to look also.

[Bob Kevoian]

See, I'm the exact same. I have to see it.

[Josh Arnold]

You gotta watch.

[Chris]

And a countdown. Yeah, I don't want to countdown or anything. Just do it. Count me in.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

I try to focus on something else in the room.

[Dave]

Yeah. Big deep breath in, deep breath out when they put it in.

[Chris]

Oh, okay. Yeah. I want nothing. Just.

[Bob Kevoian]

I like to watch it going in. Tom, you know that. You know what I'm talking about, right? You hear me talking about stuff? Yeah. You like to watch.

[Josh Arnold]

You like to hear the nurse go, is it in yet?

[Bob Kevoian]

I've had that question before.

[Josh Arnold]

Now we have. We have. We have gotten the printer working. I. I gave.

[Dave]

Was the printer.

[Bob Kevoian]

Nobody likes you here.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is it really? Is it really the printer? Was it.

[Dave]

I. I came in here and I said, look, there's nothing on the printer right now. And he was like, so it isn't working? I don't know. I didn't watch him hit print.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wait a minute. So you forget.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I hit print. It wasn't there. She waited for quite some time and she left. So I printed it again and it printed four copies. So there's something.

[Chris]

What are the odds there's some Chinese restaurant down the street just getting all these copies?

[Josh Arnold]

Wouldn't that be great?

[Bob Kevoian]

What is. What is Bob and Tom show.

[Josh Arnold]

Now the. I'll play the. The important intro to this one more time from Paul and Storm.

[Chris]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Three, two.

[Bob Kevoian]

Don't say the one. No.

[Josh Arnold]

If you want to turn your daddy

[Guest/Performer]

parts orange, eat some Cheetos and watch some porn.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay? Now, Cheetos dust. We've determined it's called. What is it?

[Bob Kevoian]

It's Cheetle, like Don Cheadle.

[Josh Arnold]

Now here's the story.

[Bob Kevoian]

Go ahead.

[Dave]

The Say goodbye to Cheeto fingers. Cheeto fingers is a slang term for the bright orange powder coated fingertips you get after eating Cheetos. It comes from the cheese flavored dust, officially called cheetle, that sticks to your skin and is notoriously hard to wipe off. Who wipes it off? Don't you just lick it off?

[Chris]

It depends on what I'm doing.

[Dave]

Okay, it does.

[Chris]

If I'm driving in the car, I try to wipe it off.

[Dave]

Okay.

[Chris]

If I'm eating them at home, I'll lick it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you say a chick was here? Yeah, he's in the corner there sucking on his fingers. He must have had Cheetos.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but if you try to wipe it off on a white shirt, it looks like you're wearing a traffic cone.

[Chris]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Whatever that stuff is, it is bright.

[Dave]

Yeah. PepsiCo says it's rolling out a new version of Cheetos and Doritos made with artificial flavors or without. Without artificial flavors or colors.

[Bob Kevoian]

Boy, Pepsi has got the. That cornered, don't they? They have the snack food, they have the soft drink.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

What else do you need in life?

[Dave]

The company says the reformulated snacks will taste the same, but without the bright telltale orange dust that famously sticks to your fingers.

[Josh Arnold]

I think it's a mistake.

[Chris]

This is.

[Dave]

PepsiCo says the cleaner recipe will appear in stores early next year.

[Chris]

I don't know about this.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you see that and did I don't know if I gave you the story with the logo. What's his name? Chester Cheeto. Oh, yeah, it's an albino.

[Chris]

Now he is Chester Cheetah. How do we.

[Bob Kevoian]

How do we feel about that punchline?

[Chris]

Oh, I'm sorry. There was a punchline.

[Josh Arnold]

The term.

[Chris]

We're in repair mode over here.

[Bob Kevoian]

The term albino is that. Is that. That's got to be like a negative or insulting.

[Dave]

So no, I think they're albino condition.

[Josh Arnold]

There are albino animals all over the kingdom. There are albino snakes, albino tigers, albino

[Bob Kevoian]

f. There is go through everything that's in.

[Josh Arnold]

I was trying to explain. I'm lowering myself to your level of Knowledge.

[Bob Kevoian]

And let me tell you something I appreciate.

[Chris]

Doesn't the definition of it about. Don't they also have to have pink eyes? Isn't that part of it?

[Dave]

Yeah, it's a part of the condition. Yeah. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

The great Edgar Winter.

[Chris]

I don't think he had pink eyes. He may have had pink eye every now and again.

[Josh Arnold]

Edgar Winter, a brilliant musician, as was his.

[Chris]

How dare I mention pink guy in the same sentences?

[Bob Kevoian]

Edgar.

[Chris]

Winner.

[Dave]

Okay. I don't want my Cheetos to be clean.

[Chris]

I don't either.

[Dave]

I don't want.

[Chris]

Nor do I want my Doritos.

[Dave]

No, definitely not Doritos.

[Chris]

Because it's also. Something is up chemically that I am suspicious of. If they're doing that.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Chris]

If they're going to taste the exact same. But they somehow got rid of the powder.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I think this is making somebody in Washington happy. I think that's what this is all about.

[Dave]

Oh, a diet.

[Chris]

I mean, I'm a paranoid guy. That's crazy.

[Josh Arnold]

Paranoid. Oh, no, no, no, no. They. All these products have to get rid of the dye, right?

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Chris]

The dye is one thing. The dust is another.

[Dave]

But. But Doritos does have red dye in it.

[Chris]

That's fine. But I bet it still does, even without the powder.

[Dave]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I assume that the Cheetos orange is dye or they wouldn't be getting rid of it. What is it? Red dye number two or something?

[Dave]

And one of them. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Was that a little. Wasn't that a Lou Vega song?

[Dave]

Yes, the story might say that, but the story I have. Does it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chris]

This makes it sound like it's a convenience thing.

[Dave]

I think that's how they're spinning it.

[Chris]

I'm sick of all these assumptions here. The story either said it or it didn't.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, if you assume it'll make an ass out of you.

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

Which is our goal.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think what you're worried about is that. That you're thinking all of our stories are based in fact and they're. They are.

[Chris]

I know this is a tough.

[Bob Kevoian]

Exactly.

[Dave]

They're all according to Tom's interpretation.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chris]

But also, even in the hallways of this building, everything is 90% assumption.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, certainly.

[Dave]

That's because there's no clear communication, Right?

[Chris]

No, no.

[Josh Arnold]

I think this is a legitimate news story.

[Bob Kevoian]

He runs a business like he does his life. He doesn't tell anybody anything.

[Josh Arnold]

So what. What do you want to know? What is not in this story that is. That will make you.

[Chris]

Are they doing it to remove certain artificial dyes or are they doing it as A convenience thing for hey now you can eat them and not have powder.

[Josh Arnold]

I think as Ms. Hooker points out, that's their spin on this. They're obviously.

[Chris]

So we're assuming it's a spin.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, I'll spend $100.

[Chris]

You can't bet on something where we'll never know the effing answer.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why do you always go to that?

[Chris]

It doesn't make any sense.

[Bob Kevoian]

Just because someone doesn't agree with you. Bet me. But I'd like to see you in a president also.

[Chris]

I don't like when a rich man wants to bet me money.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, he's right. Bet me a hundred dollars. I think you've got a problem. You really jumped a betting real quick.

[Josh Arnold]

I have a little light right now. Need some cash?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I was gonna say now.

[Josh Arnold]

Speaking of Cheetle and Cheetos, you like them?

[Chris]

I know you don't really eat them much.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't. I don't eat stuff like that.

[Chris]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't teach stuff like that. I. No.

[Josh Arnold]

They might be delightful. It's just not my thing. I do like the Cheetle dust on the. On popcorn. I will admit that there is a statue that was dedicated to Cheetos in Canada. A 17 foot tall statue of an orange stained hand holding a massive Cheeto puff.

[Chris]

Weird.

[Josh Arnold]

In the town of Cheadle, Alberta. Oh, this is a press release from Cheadle. From Cheetos. Excuse me. They were. They were chosen to receive this honor because of their similarity to the name Cheadle.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow, this is really fascinating.

[Josh Arnold]

Isn't that cool? Giant hand with a.

[Chris]

That's weird.

[Dave]

It is weird.

[Chris]

I would get a picture next to it.

[Josh Arnold]

So they. But I mean the, the Cheetos people are embracing the. The. The Cheetle dust. So now the question is are they going to make some other kind of Cheetle dust?

[Chris]

Yeah. Are they going to make. So can you get original and Cheetah?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I don't think so. I'll do my homework and find out for you when we come back.

[Chris]

How about that? I do not trust your homework.

[Podcast Host]

The things in life that we put up with simply because we don't get around to fixing them. And I let be a problem for much longer than it should be a problem because of the single problem of me. I'm the problem at the center of my life.
