Nateland | Ep #99 - Peanut Butter & Potato Chips feat. Greg Warren

[@CamRom____]

When Bovery asked Greg, “do you know everything about chips?” I almost lost it. Unbelievable episode. How this organically turned into 2 hour sales pitch on salty snacks, mixed with an aggressive commentary on the low brow tactics of frito lay, I’ll never know. But, it was pure magic.

[@jaret81]

I read this comment, before I watched the episode and it still murdered me.

[@asherwallick7767]

The best!! Possibly my favorite episode.

[@rob0tic931]

I submit that this episode of Nateland can be argued as the best so far. It's the Jif of Nateland podcasts.

[@paulconaty2538]

Came back and watched it for the third time today. Grey is still one of my all time favorites. Seen him multiple times. Awesome guy to represent the Lou

[@irmazandl]

BEST PODCAST EVER. With Greg Warren you fashioned your own version of The Office. Greg really knows his marketing and seeing Nate crack up about it is GOLD!!! great great episode.

[@corymckenzie6354]

I am so happy that Greg stuck around to do another episode. This has moved to the top five episodes for me. I worked in a grocery store for 8 years and am genuinely interested in everything Greg talked about.

[@cbailey4322]

If anyone is ever depressed, just watch Aaron during Greg’s serious talk about Jif and Pringles. He continuously has to wipe the laughing tears from his eyes. To make it even more entertaining, Greg follows with “I don’t know what’s so funny, this is important stuff.”

[@deangulberry1876]

I heard him talk about all that on Bob and Tom. Who knew peanut butter was so funny and competitive?

[@shadowdev4737]

I don't know what's so funny Aaron this is important....😂😂

[@shadowdev4737]

I don't know what's so funny Aaron this is important....😂😂

[@mattk1693]

My career started with Coca-Cola,so when Greg started talking about what it was like haggling with stores for shelf space and then breaking down the best sellers,man it brought me back to my early 20's! Also, he has the best laugh ever and I would never get bored of him being a repeat guest! Keep up the good work guys and I'll see Nate in July for the first time!!

[@ryanfutrell4818]

i mean, no one even bats an eye when Nate says, "Sink, Line, and Hooker." i had a really, truly awful day at work today, and this was the absolute best thing to come home to and decompress with. thank you so very much. be well, all.

[@asherwallick7767]

I know!!! Not one of them called him out. There were at least 3 other people in that room.

[@kvisa82]

This is up there in the top 5 best ever Nateland episodes. I mean, cmon. An entire hour+ on peanut butters and salty snacks. I love it SO much.

[@peacefulpaul]

I've listened to 99 of these in the last couple of months and this is my favourite so far I think

[@williamroberts5811]

Somehow, Peanut Butter and Chips skyrocketed up to my favorite episode. 😂 Nate wanting to move to a test market killed me 🤣🤟🤣🤟

[@JackSather]

Man i laughed so hard this episode! did not think this episode would be a hit off the title, but GREG BROUGHT THE DRAMA of peanut butter and potato chips.. crisps*

[@alankramer4624]

Bates low key saying, "is peanut butter your jam" had me absolutely rolling.

[@MJLondn]

Just heard it - I feel so bad they missed (or ignored?) it!

[@nickjenne1097]

Sink, line, and hooker must be one of those sayings like, “buying an empty bag of corn” that only Nate knows about.

[@cspunk86]

This episode had me, as Nate said, “sink, line, and hooker!” Easily a top 5 episode. Thanks for the many laughs-please keep them coming!

[@thebenman8657]

😂😂 Came to the comments to see if anyone else caught that one. 🤣

[@cspunk86]

@@thebenman8657 I actually had to listen to it twice to make sure I didn’t hear it wrong! What a perfect moment!

[@kellyswallows7346]

And no one caught it 😂

[@mariannescottlusk601]

Aaron’s uncontrolled laughter is so good. I love watching him. Greg’s seriousness and passion is entertaining without trying. I learned so much from this episode. Interesting and hilarious!

[@rreidutube]

One of the best episodes yet! Please get Greg and Dusty Slay together to do an episode on Sales.

[@CalebBaleFinance]

Best part was when Nate says "I bought it sink, line, and hooker" and no one said anything like it just wasn't worth trying to correct him. Y'all should do an episode about fishing to set him straight. Thanks for the laughs and making my Wednesday always interesting at work.

[@meganthornton9409]

I came here to say this! I am only going to say, “sink line and hooker,” from now on!

[@CalebBaleFinance]

@@meganthornton9409 Yes! We need to continue what Nate started!

[@joyspellmann4312]

I have laughed so stink in’ hard at this one! I was a VP at one of the warehouse delivery companies, was there for 22 years. I enjoyed everything Greg talked about. A blast from the past for me! Wow. Great one guys!

[@jenstevens7871]

The genius of this episode is Greg's passion for Pringles. Having worked with P&G for years, I am part of the cult too. He is not even trying to be funny and the whole episode is hysterical, with the guys low-key making fun of him.

[@MyKolt45]

The Reese peanut butter bit is amazing,I remember being a kid when that came out and thought "man this is going to be great",and it was dry and gross 😆. novelty peanut butter.

[@ryanthayer1818]

I love this episode! I work in the CPG industry like Greg and listening to him talk so earnestly about it is perfect. When people ask what I do I just tell them I’m in marketing because the details of the job are so boring to explain if you don’t know the industry. I’d explain it to folks back in the day and just watch their eyes glaze over. I love how Greg owns the details and just says “what’s so funny” every time he gets in the weeds and the guys laugh. Please have Greg on more often.

[@micah_182]

How many times have I watched this episode? Yes.

[@biscottiluigi711]

It is a guaranteed laugh!

[@chadharker6376]

Glad to see that Bamboozled is truly a father, coming in strong with the Dad Jokes - Greg: "Peanut butter was my go-to" Bamboozled: Peanut Butter was your "Jam"? The rest of the group - true to form - just keeps right on rolling with the conversation ignoring the hidden gem And for the record -- I leave my butter out of the fridge. Absolutely love the show -- keep up the good work. Was lucky enough to see Nate in Salt Lake City and am excited to see Brian and Aaron in June!

[@kruegeraj1]

Bingo card is definitely the Rodney Dangerfield of the show. No respect.

[@MJLondn]

Poor Brian that nobody noticed that jam joke! I thought it was great!

[@Gorillapino]

Greg is such a great salesman that I just bought a jar of Jif peanut butter and a can of Pizza Pringles. I even gave a dirty look at the Frito Lay shelves. Basically Greg had me, as Nate would put it, "sink, line and hooker!" (1:32:35)

[@JaredGRisner]

What else can we get Greg “serious” about? I laughed so hard so many different times. Tell Aaron it is definitely as funny as he thinks it is. Thank you fellas. While we’re laughing it up, Frito-Lay is probably out there signing some Kroger manager to a 2 year deal with the Padres. I’ve never hated them more. Thanks Greg.

[@sarahpalik7746]

This is my favorite episode to date! I love someone that actually knows what they are talking about. And he’s super passionate about it too! My grandfather worked at the original Frito factory and his passion about Fritos is comparable.

[@jbrunch8082]

This is one of the best episodes I have ever seen!!!

[@robertkemp8440]

You should make an effort to ask every comedian that comes on the pod their last job before full time comedy and then make compilation. All their stories are hilarious whether it's fertilizer sales or Pringles and peanut butter.

[@patrickwhite88]

Wardog has been one of the best guests to date. I was laughing hysterically while watching Greg explain the ins and outs of Pringles and Jif peanut butter . Would love to see an episode featuring Wardog and Dusty Slay. “This is important stuff”.

[@lawrencebehmer1713]

Nate never sounded more intelligent than when he was talking about how to pour ketchup 🤣😂

[@rewindsretro1328]

Greg fits in so well, I want him to be a permanent addition to the podcast. This was the best episode since the Animal episode.

[@ricardomenendez2709]

I love the fact that someone asked for advice for a 7 year old and Nate started giving him advice as if he was a grown adult. I was thinking half way through is someone going to tell him it’s for a 7 year old? Thanks to Greg for stopping him. Also whenever he would say “I don’t know why you’re laughing at this” I would bust out laughing at work. This was definitely one of the better ones, but it seems with every guest that comes on, that episode is one of the best. Good for you guys 👍 keep up the great work

[@todd.a.weinberg]

Love how the followed up an ad for Athletic Greens by immediately discussing their favorite type of Pringles!

[@budduvcawce]

I have to say this was one of the best ones so far. Greg was awesome! Loved the tip of the hat from Birdfeeder- one of the many highlights of the episode.

[@TimLinklater]

I loved having Greg Warren on the show. He is so passionate about the stuff he believes in. I loved seeing him get worked up when they laughed at his enthusiasm for Peanut Butter. That man cares!!! I am headed to see Nate tonight at the Vancouver, BC show, SO EXCITED!!!

[@udubsalum]

😂 Dying the whole episode. Greg was so passionate and watching Nate and Aaron waiting in anticipation for his next remark earnestly equating the peanut butter business to warring mafia families was hilarious. My favorite episode.

[@rhondafien2246]

What Does Heinz 57 Mean? Surprisingly enough, Heinz didn’t start out with ketchup at first. The company’s first condiment in 1869 was horseradish, and it grew from there, adding vinegar, pickles, preserves and more to the mix. Based on the bottle’s label stating “57 varieties,” you’d think the company grew to make and sell 57 products. But as it turns out, Heinz was producing over 60 different products (including ketchup, of course!) at the time the number 57 slogan launched and was added to the bottle in 1896. Inspired by an advertisement he saw promoting 21 styles of shoes, Heinz knew he needed a slogan with the same intrigue. So, he chose his lucky number, five, along with his wife’s favorite number, seven, and he married the two. He combined the two numbers to form ’57’ and added the lucky number to his bottles for years to come.

[@sativacation]

Just started listening to the podcast maybe a month or two ago, I’ve been going back and listening through the old episodes, and this one is by far my favorite one. War Dawg’s passion over his former occupation is contagious, I listened to it today at work and had to come home just so I could watch all of my favorite moments. It’s funny how of all the subjects they have covered throughout the series run, peanut butter and potato chips has been the most fascinating.

[@colleenla40]

Greg’s laugh is amazing.

[@johnhutchins]

Woah, Nate! I thought we were keeping it clean. Nate on Dip n Dots at 1:32:39 "I bought sink, line, and hooker."

[@Shadowchamp]

Hello folks, this has been a rough month after losing my father to lung cancer two weeks ago, but listening to this podcast has kept me confused and distracted enough from reality to laugh and smile. Thanks to Nate, Aaron, and Briggleby for keeping me sane!

[@treybryantmusic]

“Sink, line, and Hooker” Never before have I heard someone say something completely backwards because they were so excited about dippin dots. Thanks for the laughs y’all.

[@angie7164]

I found a mitt at Goodwill with the name "Bell" written on it. Can Aaronland incorporate a mitt lost and found to reconnect lost mitts with owners?

[@marshallbarker3211]

Nate, Aaron, and Baked Bean Brisket, you guys make every day a little bit better for me. I drive for Uber and listen to your podcast all the time. I love spending time with the Worrier, the Wheezer and the Misquoter. Can't get enough of the Scrambled Sayings by Nate, most recently When Nate said that he "Loved Dipping Dots", and that he was on board "Sink, Line, and Hooker"!!!! I'm not sure that has the same meaning as "Hook Line and Sinker", but I'll take it. Please keep up the incredible work you guys do. Having some place to listen, laugh, and at the same time gather absolutely no credible information,(with the exception of Peanut Butter and Pringles sales demographics), is very helpful these days.

[@ashleymccall5054]

This might be the funniest episode yet!

[@matthewparrish1740]

This has by far been one of my favorite episodes. My dad worked for the company that designed and printed all the bags that Frito-Lay put their chips in. Growing up we were not allowed to buy Pringles. I remember my dad jokingly telling my mom “You cant buy Pringles….you tryin to put me out of a job?! Frito Lay only! That’s job security!” My sister and I got Chester the Cheetah Cheet-O watches that ran on water one year cuz our dad worked for a big Frito supplier. We always got to know about and try new candy and snacks before they came out so War dog isn’t wrong about them being dirty. Great show boys!

[@TravisWhite]

Hands down, one of the funniest episodes in recent memory. Thanks for the laughs. Let’s go, folks!

[@alexhultquist483]

Another great Nateism from this episode: “Sink, line, and hooker” Keep ‘em coming!

[@williamd5708]

By far most hilarious episode yet

[@AndyJDrew]

This made the world of peanut butter very REAL.

[@innerninja7992]

The best part of this episode for me was the thought that there are actually board rooms across this country that have these kinds of conversations with a straight face because that is their business.

[@ryanfutrell4818]

hands down, best episode yet.

[@JusJrdn]

I gotta say… I LOVE BBQ Pringles! I think they nailed this flavour! I don’t know if I’ve ever even had the red original ones 😂

[@mattmartell2359]

This is EASILY one of the funniest podcasts. Keep Greg coming on. The whole dynamic was great. All of your were on FIIIIIIYYYYAAAA 🔥

[@TheAmazongrl]

I am loving this episode so much. I love watching people passionate about what they do. I could follow the whole conversation. 😊

[@MDillonandI]

All I could think while listening was how I want you to make a sitcom about rival food distributors and them trying to launch new products... "you think you can get into the peanut butter game, Reeses??" ...The image of Greg having to pick up the Pringles that weren't selling... I think it's a show that could really take off.

[@rcoyle518]

phenomenal...just phenomenal 😂😂😂😂

[@johnbanderson465]

Spit out my water, when I heard "Sink, Line, & Hooker"..... The Best Jerry, the Best!!!

[@marywangler3483]

Not gonna lie, went out and bought a can of pringles that day! Thanks for making my crappy day at work go a little faster! Love the pod!!

[@ElBeasto94]

He said "sink, line, and hooker". 🤣

[@gigglyme2001]

@48:29 Aaron and Greg have a synchronized laugh with their heads going back and forth. 🤣

[@Lukish713]

This is one of the best episodes!!!!!!!!!!!! I am crying from laughing

[@jordanmadden7388]

Greg provided a ton of background information that helps explain how retail items end up in stores everyday. Consumers might laugh at how much is involved or how seriously the little details are taken, but it’s real.

[@dianahstephens7281]

Nate/Nathaniel 😂 My son Caleb introduced me to you a few months ago . And I started watching all the specials and now my husband is watching all the specials and we are all 3 seriously sitting here watching you three different ways !! Caleb and I are watching two different podcast and we compare those at night and my husband is watching KZbin clips 😂 Thank you so much for giving your life to comedy !! But dude … I can’t not afford your tickets !!!!😮 so keep putting out those specials 😂 I love the whole crew on the podcast!

[@Hi.Im.Levi.]

The banter is so much better when Nate has a comedian to talk to 🤣

[@joshuahurt227]

I just googled “Top Test Market cities” and Nashville is listed as the top Test Market city. I should have guessed Nashville would be #1 when Nate, Aaron, & Bunko started wondering where the test markets were. They live in the top market and they didn’t know. “This podcast doesn’t make you smart, it makes you happy.”

[@joshuahurt227]

Here are the top U.S. cities to test market a national product: Nashville, TN. Cincinnati, OH. Indianapolis, IN. Charleston, SC. Jacksonville, FL. Greenville, SC. Oklahoma, OK. Phoenix, AZ.

[@jeremylogan3457]

War Dog playing the passionate Pringles salesman is pure gold Jerry!

[@otooleable]

Him saying Obviously I love my mom before explaining her peanut butter choices was wild 🤣🤣

[@christinahaldeman7542]

This one was so great!

[@danshaharuddin7259]

This was definitely my favorite episode by far! I’m a bartender and it was a slow night so I was listening to y’all while restocking and I couldn’t stop laughing at how Greg kept comparing the sales game to a turf war. Anyways, I saw Nate’s show in Monterey and I’m excited to say I’ll be seeing it again in Maui! My grandma lives there and I thought I’d treat her to some good comedy. See you in a few months Nate and keep up the great work y’all.

[@paulm.e.mueller2903]

When can we get Gayle/Gail as a guest? Usually you guys tape during the day so she should be able to make it. She can bring the most famous smartphone in all of Nateland! She's at least as credentialed as the Bigfoot/alien guy. I'll go proofread this now.

[@juliaperrodin4915]

I have an enormous crush on Greg Warren, and oddly enough, this episode didn’t dissuade me.

[@kanagawakenji7]

David being a "huge fan" somehow also seems like a helicopter pun...

[@conservativepineapples6203]

Awesome episode from beginning to end!

[@score3q]

I think Gregg should show up to that store, all these years later, and give that guy some baseball tickets.

[@dustingaddis2423]

GREAT EPISODE. They should just start having salesmen on talking about the mundane products they sell, who knew it would be so so so funny.

[@nathanielwiens]

A full generation of people in sales heard the same thing from their dads that Greg did. So they switched it up and now we call them "account managers" so they can "move the dials and switches" and feel important for selling no-brainer products. 😂😂 Loved both of these episodes with Greg and appreciate his passion for Dr. Procter and Mr. Gamble's household goods.

[@PaulieD1122]

I'm so proud of Nate for knowing the right 57 to hit lol.

[@imadill4eva]

Hello Folks. This is exactly the reason I watch these videos each week. I'm definitely not smarter, but I sure did laugh a lot. Thank You Nate, Aaron & Bagel Bite always Funny. Will definitely check out more of War-Dawgs stuff.

[@joyflateau4464]

I strive to have the passion for anything the way Greg has a passion for Jif and Pringles.

Greg can be my latex salesman any day!!

[@brucedixon5185]

I can see the dramatic movie now with Greg Warren being Technical Advisor on set to make sure they do it correctly. CHIPS.

[@OneFastC6]

The funniest episode by far. The "other" guys finally contribute to an episode. Let's go, folks!

[@DocManhattan56]

amazing episode, perfect game from Greg

[@freeradical77]

Just some observations from a New Zealand perspective; - Jif is a brand of toilet cleaner (and sinks etc.) - Peanut butter and jelly together is just not a thing, and even though I have lived in the US for many years, I still can't bring myself to even try it (probably in the same way Americans would vomit at the idea of eating vegemite). - NZ fridges have a butter conditioner compartment which keeps the butter at the perfect temperature for spreading.

[@haleywebb7659]

Love you all, can’t wait to see Nate in Spokane Friday! Please do a podcast on parenting, I would love to hear what tips Nate has for Brian :)

[@drfitz2541]

We do not eat a lot of butter and do leave it out.I read something 20 years ago that claimed that butter had a natural deterrent to bacterial growth ....so true or false I bought into it. Greg Warren is hilarious and I would buy peanut butter from him.

[@jojocountrygirl]

This is one of the best episodes!!!

[@Lincoln21-n3r]

Nate just said he bought into Dippin Dots "Sink, line, and hooker" and now I can't stop picturing him as Ricky from Trailer Park Boys.

[@christopherm5561]

Hahaha I love the Rickyisms and now Nateisms

[@lukejenne8730]

1:32:32 Nate: “Move over ice cream, you look ridiculous now because this is the future of ice cream, which they said, and I bought SINK, LINE, and HOOKER.”

[@eehrlichman410]

How did none of the guys in the room catch this?? I was on the floor! LOL

[@meg5897]

This podcast had me giggling while lifting so I made sure to twist my head to show others I was wearing headphones and not laughing at them. Btw Natural peanut butter gets so oily I mix and keep it in the fridge to prevent separation. Makes my husband furious when he struggles to spread it. Anyway Greg is a great guest. Thanks for the great start to my day!

[@thelongspring]

That was endlessly entertaining. It was the most I’ve learned about a subject on the podcast, and also the most useless.

[@notme222]

I mean this with the greatest of love: Someone needs to explain to Greg that it's OK to use jokes from your act during an interview. In fact, it's expected. Your fans will be happy to hear their favorites in an environment where the host can riff on it. People who don't know you yet will be impressed because the stuff you worked on seems off-the-cuff. So many times Greg says "That's something I talk about in my act." And I'm like "Yeah, that's an opening for you!" I mean sure, I'm a middle-aged man so I also enjoy long conversations about product market share. But when you have a killer bit and an audience you want to attract, use it.

[@JBird918]

When Nate said “war dog?” 🤣🤣🤣

[@JaredGRisner]

Find someone who cares for you the way Greg cares for JIF.

[@cccc13.]

Maybe best episode yet, LOVED YALL RIPPING ON GREG!!

[@MrEzekiel1982]

When Nate yells “you can’t” scared me. I didn’t know Nate could become that animated. Thought he was having a stroke

[@btsnake]

It takes me a few months, usually more, to get through a single jar of peanut butter. I've never once refrigerated it and never once had a problem. Growing up though, my parents used to refrigerate bread - anyone else ever done that? I stopped after reading somewhere that it makes it go bad quicker, but I don't have any proof for that so maybe it's just totally pointless. If only we could get a former door to door bread salesman to help us answer this

[@GregWarren]

It wasn’t door to door

[@Dirt_Merchant]

@@GregWarren they better start putting some RESPECT ON YOUR NAME

[@wakenow7612]

The refrigerator will make the bread hard quickly. What you want to do is freeze it when it's as fresh as possible and thaw it out and it will last a good week.

[@patriciasummers983]

I love this episode so much!

[@asherwallick7767]

When Greg was getting mad that his peanut butter salesman job was being disrespected!! Door to door. #aaronland

[@ponchojimmy7544]

Loved this episode, maybe my favorite! Grew up in Cedar Rapids, "greatest average" per capita potato chip eaters in the world, and can still remember the week olestra chips came out.. everyone's stomachs were destroyed. TP was in short supply! Funny stuff guys, keep it up.
