  • Investigation into Starting a Podcast
    2020/12/28
    You are listening to the Informal investigation podcast This is the podcast where we investigate, experience, and share interesting finds   My name is Asher and lets begin ::Music:: The informal investigation podcast is for entertainment purposes only. We are not responsible if you mess up. You should always do your own homework. If you try anything mentioned on this podcast you are doing so at your own risk. The views presented on this podcast do not represent any affiliated or unaffiliated organizations. ::music:: Today we are opening an informal investigation into how to start a podcast. I hope by the end of this podcast you will feel empowered to start your own.  I’m excited to announce we have finished our first quarter of the informal investigation podcast. I hope all you listeners out there have been enjoying our content. If you have I kindly ask that you subscribe and rate our podcast on https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/informal-investigation/id1535406737 (Itunes). Let’s review what we have been doing.  We started off with https://www.informalinvestigation.com/episode/investigation-into-pumpkin-ale (episode 1 - Investigation into Pumpkin Beer) - Where we discovered pumpkin beer dates back to 1771 and we made an actual recipe from the 18th century. In https://www.informalinvestigation.com/episode/investigation-into-gold (episode 2 we investigated Gold) to help us understand the rising gold prices and an exploration into the process of buying gold without getting ripped off For our https://www.informalinvestigation.com/episode/investigation-into-flannel (third episode we investigated flannel) and how this warm soft material became so popular and fashionable. We found our favorite flannel company - https://www.vermontflannel.com/?gclid=CjwKCAiArIH_BRB2EiwALfbH1LOG7d2oDw1-oSVEs43MhFOpjIemVutH6jNx_D1z-mgKDp8CAhtD6hoCGFkQAvD_BwE (The Vermont Flannel Company) and shortly after our episode release they almost completely sold out! For our https://www.informalinvestigation.com/episode/investigation-into-pale-ale- (fourth episode we were getting thirsty again and investigated pale ale). Of course we had to brew our own and made an amazing blonde ale. Then there was our most recent and popular episode where we took a super deep dive into https://www.informalinvestigation.com/episode/investigation-into-dry-cereal (dry cereal). We talked about the kellogg family, CW Post, and ofcourse we made our own cereal - https://www.instagram.com/informal_investigation/ (Coffee Bean Puffs).  ::music:: Why am I making this episode?  I know what y'all are thinking...I have only been podcasting for 3 months now! What do I know? You're correct to some extent. Although I lack the long term experience of many podcasters I am close to my podcasting beginning and I remember exactly what it's like to start a podcast because I'm living it now. I can give you a slightly different perspective then what you may be https://www.buzzsprout.com/how-to-make-a-podcast?gclid=CjwKCAiAoOz-BRBdEiwAyuvA64nGWBRcSds8c2NG8GKnK34KhPbRTtWxwH19xNW00Io2Hma7PI4-jxoCKykQAvD_BwE (reading online). Since starting this journey 3 months ago I have already been approached by multiple people asking for advice on starting their own podcasts. I hope by the end of this episode if you wanted to start your own podcast you will feel ready, inspired and empowered to do so.  Why do you want to start a Podcast?   There are really 2 reasons people start podcasts. Either to make money or they have something they are passionate about that they want to share with the world! Obviously you can be doing it for both reasons.  The reason I started this podcast is a little different. For those of you who are listening to this episode years in the future - we are recording this episode during the covid 19 pandemic. This has been a stressful...

  • Investigation into Dry Cereal

    Investigation into Dry cereal  You are listening to the Informal investigation podcast This is the podcast where we investigate, experience, and share interesting finds   My name is Asher and lets begin ::Music:: The informal investigation podcast is for entertainment purposes only. We are not responsible if you mess up. You should always do your own homework. If you try anything mentioned on this podcast you are doing so at your own risk. The views presented on this podcast are solely those of the speakers and do not represent any affiliated or unaffiliated organizations. ::music:: Today we are opening an informal investigation into Dry Cereal   If you like what you hear on this podcast please subscribe to us on your podcast listening app of choice to be notified about all of our latest episodes!  Disclaimer! This episode on dry cereal got way-way-way more out of control then I expected! What started out as an investigation into cereal turned into a deep dive into gastrointestinal diseases, the war on masturbation, corporate legal battles, suicide, and ultimately the making of the official informal investigation podcast cereal. Consider yourselves warned!  To get our story started let's take you back to the breakfast table before the 20th century. Generally there were 2 versions of the American breakfast: If you were rich it was a meat and fat heavy meal consisting of bacon, gravy, fried potatoes, and who knows what else. Obviously this was not a very healthy way to start your day.  If you were poor you would eat hot cereals from grain whether it be porridge, gruel or mush. I wasn’t exactly sure the difference between these. With a little help from wikipedia it appears Porridge is a breakfast cereal made by boiling ground or crushed grain in water or milk. Gruel is similar to porridge however it is generally thinner. Mush on the other hand is a cornmeal porridge that can either be served as is or allowed to set then cut into squares and fried. These hot cereals were labor intensive requiring hours of boiling over wood stoves every morning. I bet all the mothers out there were starting to get fed up needing to wake up hours early to make some hardly appreciated mush for their family  The obvious disadvantages of these two breakfast options left a vacuum for a revolution of American breakfast. ::music:: Let’s jump in! In 1875 the now popular oatmeal was brought to the market by Henry Parsons Crowell. First he made cracked oats then later on the technology was developed to make rolled oats. His company was originally called the Consolidated Oatmeal Company and later switched their name to Quaker Oats - as this sounds a lot more wholesome. I can’t imagine why anyone would put consolidated and oatmeal in the same sentence - but that’s just me. Making oatmeal still took a decent amount of time as instant oats had not yet been invented. I assume Crowell's oats were similar to the old fashioned Quaker Oats we have today. If only he knew one day his breakthrough hot cereal would be called old fashioned. Another fun fact...those cylindrical containers we buy oatmeal in were created by Crowell and a major breakthrough in food packaging at that time. Where exactly the story of dry cereal begins is unclear. Some people start with Sylvester Graham. He was the maker of flour and these bread nuggets which later got bastardized into what we know as the graham cracker. Sylvester Graham -- Graham cracker -- Yep, mind blown! This story is going to become a who’s who of American food manufacturing. Some tell a story where grahams biscuits were too hard to chew so people started to soak them in milk and then call this the beginning of dry cereal. Dry - sure but cereal I dono... Graham was a presbyterian minister and called himself a christian physiologist and created the American...
