The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for September 11, 2019

They are rather nasty to drink straight up….

That’s re-VOLT ING !

Shocking that they may get a charge out of them!

Just don’t put salt on them. You could be charged with assault and battery

Is this what you call an ENERGY DRINK?

Rather acid commentary… :D

Don’t drink the brown acid, man.

Need to amp it up? Drink zinc!

Liquid cell batteries? They’d probably get your heart pumping.

Anode that was going to happen.

Tastes like grapefruit juice.

1st thing – don’t ever give anybody ideas like that! 2nd thing – want proof? Years ago on CarTalk a guy called in about a puddle he found under his car after he remembered hearing the brothers talking about how to tell what the drips on the garage floor meant and were they important or not. He said it wasn’t green (antifreeze – there’s other colors but not for his car), it wasn’t clear with a bit of yellow (brake fluid), and it wasn’t pink (power steering fluid). He felt it and it wasn’t oily or greasy. Then (as they had mentioned to do on that previous show) he tasted a drop or two of it (I know, I know). It wasn’t sweet (antifreeze), it wasn’t sour/bitter (battery acid), so he said he’d been stumped. Until he saw his neighbors tomcat walking out of the garage…

They say it’ll do wonders for your bipolar disorder.

So that’s how energy drinks were invented?
