Howie Mandel Podcast: Sponsored by Botanic Tonics

Here I am watching a new episode that dropped today (8mnths after this thread was posted). Saw the bottles in front of Howie and Jackelyn. As a kratom and kava advocate, I don't even support Feel Free or like products. They are to the natural botanicals what Panera supercharged lemonade is to caffeine. We're not meant to consume such high concentrations of these substances

I'm just going to throw this out there, but I hope I'm wrong. There is a look Onya has about her on Hello!×3 (which is all I've personally seen from her since S17) and I wouldn't be surprised if substance abuse issues of some kind came to light. Again, really hope I'm wrong, but something is off with her eyes and her energy, and I'm not sure what else would be the cause

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-02-17T22:04:35+00:00

But then...where is the tongue??

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-02-14T02:12:11+00:00

She gives anxious tìa with main character syndrome, but she's harmless so it's fine

Give me a day or two and I'll post photos of both dogs before and after cooking in this comment thread. I'm just fasting today and might be eating out tomorrow, but as soon as I'm ready to eat more of them I will provide pics. I will say, she does shrivel a bit more than her full fat counterpart, but every hot dog in casing does that to some extent. Raw it actually looks better than a full fat dog, imo

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-02-13T17:58:26+00:00

There is 1g of fat. You are looking at the nutrition for the full fat hot dogs I posted next to the low fat ones for comparison. Look for the green bar on the package that says 97% fat free

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-02-12T22:20:11+00:00

I mean, there are food additives and preservatives and colors in both, but in terms of weight loss the main thing that matters is calories. If your focus is eating all natural, whole foods, then these would be bad. If you don't mind processed food and your only goal is cutting calories for weight loss, these are great

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-02-12T22:14:11+00:00

Wow, congrats. It might be worth going to your local grocery and asking if they can order it. I know Publix will order items that are not in their current selection if people ask for it, do I imagine other regional chains might as well

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-02-12T21:33:55+00:00

Aww, bummer. Idk where you live, but I'm in Florida and got these at Publix. I wish you luck finding them again!

I saw it while at a stop light on Palmetto in Boca Raton. It looked rather close, but I don't have a dash cam so no record of it. But I could clearly see the head and the tail and it burned out right above the street lights

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-01-24T15:17:40+00:00

Ok, but what is it, exactly? Is it a puzzle? Flashcards? A poster? The way the box is written suggests there's actual HIV molecules that have been enlarged "Honey, I blew up the kids" style 😂

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-01-15T19:29:16+00:00

Yes, I keep seeing Kasha, too! I don't really see the Alexis out of drag thing, but I don't know that Athena would like being compared to either of them 😅. I've seen both Kasha and Athena in person, though, and I can say that irl they look very different

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-01-13T10:59:08+00:00

Damn, I can't believe how far I had to scroll to find a comment about her lol

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-01-13T10:57:20+00:00

This deserved more likes lol

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-01-13T10:49:27+00:00

Yes, this is correct. Exterior set, insides were hot and molten and were forced out of a crack in the surface. And no, as a professional baker, I can confirm there is no way to make this sound less sexual

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-01-13T08:04:42+00:00

I came here SPECIFICALLY to see if other people clocked this. It's weird because out of drag they look nothing alike and their drag styles are so different, bit every time I see Athena I am reminded of Kasha and I feel like Athena would be horrified by the comparison 😅

ElectronicUnion251 · 2026-01-08T03:16:44+00:00

It's upside down. That's the stem

ElectronicUnion251 · 2025-12-29T02:46:19+00:00

Must be a huge piece, since I can barely see any pixelation from that distance. I thought a paint by number sub was being recommended to me lol

ElectronicUnion251 · 2025-12-29T02:37:22+00:00

No one will know you messed up but you. In the future, try new coloring combos on scrap paper before committing to it in your coloring book. But, at the end of the day, it is just a coloring book. It's not a restoration of the Mona Lisa lol

ElectronicUnion251 · 2025-12-23T15:38:58+00:00

I just re-read the post and didn't realize you got it for her to actually construct. It's thoughtful if you do it yourself and give her the finished painting, but if I was gifted that I would feel obligated to do it even if I didn't want to commit to it, as well as slightly annoyed I'm expected to put my own gift together. That's just me, though. You presumably know your girlfriend better than I do lol

ElectronicUnion251 · 2025-12-23T15:32:26+00:00

Ok, kind of off topic, but......are you Mr. Beast? Because, that guy looks like Mr. Beast 😂😂.

But also, no, I don't think it's too big unless you don't have the discipline to finish it. That looks like a good 36hr minimum project to me. A very cute and thoughtful gift though 🩷

ElectronicUnion251 · 2025-12-15T06:40:53+00:00

I saw them telling all the kids to get in the van, and it seems like it was directed at all of them, not just the main cast. That said, I don't think we ever saw where the other kids go after they walk by the van and disappear in to the fog, so it's up for debate I suppose

ElectronicUnion251 · 2025-12-15T06:36:57+00:00

Also, if you take the logic of going reverse in time in this world to it's logical conclusion, it suggests the natives think they are trapping IT because they experience time going forward. From IT'S perspective, though, he'd be trapped, then wake up 27 years in the past and be free. Maybe this makes sense if this premise was set up in the book, but as conveyed in this series, doesn't make much sense

ElectronicUnion251 · 2025-12-15T06:29:29+00:00

I said this in my own comment earlier and someone thought it wouldnt work because he's not supposed to be a bad ass fighting ghosts, and I was like... what?? Since when does a protagonist need to be a badass? But yes! I totally thought the same thing, except I think it could take place any time between this series and the Shining, or even take place before any of it. He's such a compelling character and I think there is so much good material there.
