It's time for the diceic D. DJ. DJs. You're about to be savory. It's time for the dissect. Dijs. And my mouth is water. And me passing the street.

Are you eating candy right now? Oh, yeah. Why? I love candy. Okay. You know what I love? What? The DJs.

I like to spin it. Mix it. The world's back. And I dissect it. DJ Castle. DJ Jag. Because we are the dissect DJs. And we brought something.

Sweet for you today. Get that first bite that goes, ooh. I like that. Once a more. And then you, you finish eating that bite and you're like, all right, I'm good.

Let's put these away. Five minutes later, you're like, let me have another one. Five minutes. Just one more piece. Me and the problem of candy is I'll eat an entire thing of my favorite candy in under a minute and then be messed up for the rest of the day.

You do. You go ham. I go ham. I'll have a second one. But we have to talk. I'm glad that that fell to the ground. I'm glad it didn't make it. Two more, bro.

Are you kidding me? It's candy. Tastes like candy. And we started the episode with one of our favorites. Me and Castle had both agreed in our years. I don't know what you're about to say. Cameo. Candy.

Cameo. Epic. This song. Okay, if you're going to chew, can you at least do it like a wave from the mic? Because it's distracting all of us. Yeah, okay, there you go. Justin decided to show up today with his best candy headgear, which is representing the worst candy.

Worst candy. I don't actually like this candy. Sugar daddies, which were definitely the ones when I used to go trick-treating as a kid, I'd be like, fucking sugar daddy. Maybe the last ones you ate because you're like, I never... I keep having these candies. My wife keeps watering for the extra 10 seconds after it. You can hold off on eating them right now.

Just for now. For now. For this episode, we brought some of our favorite candies to the table because, like, if there's one thing that you can make a song about that you know, everybody will love, candy at the top of list. It's right up there, not controversial. It's something that you love from beginning. to end.

Are you breathing that heavily? So tasty. By way of you chewing on the candy. It's like, I'm either going to chew really loudly. My cholesterol is going up. Whatever it is. It is.

All right. I'm done. I'm done. Okay, we're good. I'm really going to enjoy this episode. Chill and snacking on the candy for a second. Have you ever had a cavity?

I probably have. I don't recall. I've never had a candy and I love candy. I eat candy pretty much daily. Okay. So anybody that's ever had a cavity and enjoys candy, you don't got teeth like mine. My teeth are amazing. Yeah.

I don't have any recollection of getting a cavity, but. You would have known. They would have filled that shit. I got a crown put in the back of my teeth one time. Is that a cavity thing? Either way. It was the most painful thing. They separated into like three weeks of thing.

And there was a whole month there where it was like the back molar. And there was like a week there where it was like a week there where it was like. like exposed where like they were like oh yeah we haven't put the crown on yet but we did whatever starting damage i've never needed like or wanted like painkillers ever that week i remember i was back when i like worked at a bar i was like i cannot get through a shift unless i i bet that's terrible because if you've ever had a toothache like that thing was like it would become a searing pain where you literally couldn't think about anything else during it so it's the only time i've ever experimented with painkillers and i understand how these dudes

and play in the NFL or whatever or wrestle in the WWE or just like I need the shit all the time because I'm constant pain. I bet. I bet. I bet. I've luckily have candy-proof teeth

which has allowed me to enjoy candy which brings me we're going to be doing a top three each and I actually have four that I'm bringing in so I'm bringing in an O-L-I Oh my God, you got it right. I usually say OIL which is oil which doesn't make any sense but an O-L-I

which stands for outside looking in. Outside looking in, one that wanted to make the cut. And I've been eating it this whole time. Ladies and gentlemen, my top four. So the one O-L-I version is the Starburst, but specifically the reds. Reds. You got to have the reds or you're not hanging out with me.

I don't want the yellow. I don't want the orange. It's only the red. Oh, the color red. Okay. Yeah, it's only the red. So it only comes with watermelon, cherry, strawberry, and fruit punch. There's no orange.

There's no lemon. You can have them. I don't like them. It was nice of them to put all of those names on the artificial flavor that they created. Yeah. They're like, no, it's strawberry watermelon and fruit punch. We'll just throw it all in there. Yeah.

And this is what you get. Yeah. And I realized that I didn't actually know the names of either one of those, but when I read that right now, I was happy it popped up on the list when I picked up my reds. So my OLLLI. Can I see what the package looks like? Because I don't know what you mean by red. No, no, no, like the square. Bray.

Bus one out. Because they look like pink from the outside. Oh, that one. Yeah, that one's a good one. It's like a maroon. Maroon is fruit punch. Yeah, that's a good one. Did you want one?

All right. You're going to start, you're going to start water. Fuck it. I can be able to talk for like 10 seconds. All right, man. You're taking one of my favorites right now. You have a whole pack of them.

You're right. You're right. Enjoy. We're doing candy. I kind of always like, I think I like the pink ones, but actually now that I'm looking at it, I think I actually prefer.

I was never a big Starburst guy myself. I'm honest. They're just kind of hard. actually this one's kind of soft maybe a lot of the starbursts I've had like when you get at like Halloween they'd be like sitting in like your the hard oh yeah you had the other yeah

and then by the time you have it it's like a couple weeks later and it's like just hard like it expired starbursts these are delicious yeah that's pretty good while you do that let's go ahead and start off so for real so for real candy rain and it just happens to be raining on this beautiful evening

with me recording with Steve so I felt like it was appropriate that we hit up candy rain it is a rainy day outside today It's something that I think that we forgot to mention. So obviously we want to hit Cameo Candy, but once on the subject of Candy, there's been so many jams created over the years with that single subject.

So we wanted to do a little bit of a melody of several songs that hit that bring up one thing. Number three for me. You want to go throughout our top three? Yeah, yeah. Because you already brought top three. Okay. Explain to the audio listeners what your number three is. Haribia. I don't even know how. How you say this?

Haribos. Haribou. Gummy bears. Gummy bears. Now, usually I can get any gummy bear haribos. This one specific, I've never tried before, ladies and gentlemen. So I'm going to go ahead and dip into this and tell you my thought on this. This is the cherry specific. Cherry specific. That's the name of the flavor, actually. It's only cherry throughout.

I've never had these, but I am a cherry fan, which you will come to find. I like the cherry starburst. I like the cherry Let me get a little bit of this We're gonna have stomach aches by there This you better be ready Do these fuck up your stomach No it's just you know

Excessive amounts of sugar Will do that to you have Two gummy bears That's gonna be fine I had one starburst And two gummy bears Should we just keep the music on Should I see a different?

We're gonna be sloppy All right well Let me talk about Six songs to go through Shut up All right So for real Was my favorite groups

In the 90s And I'm specifically because of that song but like the thing I love about that group is they had like the kid that was like 13 but it was like three grown men behind him but then that one like kit and they would all like wear it feel like the same size like suits you know and it was just sort of the style in the 90s the kid that was like 14 would like wear like a suit that was like way too big for him it was baggy but like he'd be like oh I'm gonna make it work because I'm gonna dance and I'll be like candy coated rain drops which do you think candy coated rain drops would be a fun experience?

Oh, man, I would put my mind. It would be better. I mean, rain drops. Such a disaster. This episode is immediately falling apart. Justin's idea of like eating candy while doing a podcast. I didn't realize. I forgot about the amount of talking that you have to do on a podcast.

Talking and then the amount of drool that happens as you're eating. Like there's so much moisture happening in my mouth after each bite. I'm good. I've had one starburst and one gummy bear. So I'm keeping a chill. I am getting like sugar high. He's going to like take a nap on the floor. Yeah, who's coming.

But yes, I think that would be a fantastic. Like you open it up and it's just deliciousness like and it's just like cherry raindrops falling in your mouth. Like, and by the way, ladies and gentlemen, it's my first time doing this. Highly suggest the cherry haribou bears. Can I tell you? There might be my new favorite. I might need to go to Big Five. Give us a shout out Big Five.

Not Big Five. Five below. Five below. If you want us to sponsor you, I will shout out any of the candies. and this one specifically. Pretty sure Big Five is like a sporting good store. Yeah, yeah, I messed it up. But five below has candies.

All right, good enough. I've never actually been in. There's one right over here next to us there. Then I will bring up candies very shortly because it has to do with my call. But I have specific memories of you with Haribos because when we live together, anytime I was like going to the store and be like, I'm going to go to the store. You want something?

And be like, yeah, can you get me a pack of Haribo gummy bears? Yeah, sure. And then I literally got used to it because like, You were like, are you going to the store right now? Can I get some Haribo gummy bears? You specifically asked for this brand every single time. And I stopped even having to be asked. I literally just started getting them and bring them to you after I brought, you know?

So I thought I was being a good roommate at that time. And also, I think Haribo should fucking hook us up with a sponsor. Any of these candy brands. Any of these. You want us to, we got you, man. We will talk up Haribos all day. All right. I'm done my O-I-L-L-I and my number three.

What's your name? number three. What do you see? I know you see him on the ground, which I don't like any of yours. All right. So I am. Yours look gross. Not as much of a candy guy as you.

I was, I liked it when I was a kid. I don't really eat candy much anymore. But there are two specific candies that in the past couple years I've become a huge fan of, but we're talking about number three. And you wanted me to bring a three to the mix. Yeah.

What's number three there? Is this your number three? Three is just the other one I had in the cupboard. And that is generic fruit shoes. Dude, what? Those are just tootsie rolls, but non-brand. Yeah.

It looks like the kind of package that somebody would give you to have like a rubber snake pop out. Like, oh, yeah, do you want some fruit shoes? The only reason I have these is because my mom put these in my stocking for Christmas because she's salt to the earth and she's an angel and she does sweet things like that. So I've just had these. I've snacked on one occasionally here and there. Never really feel like fruit shoes, but they were in the cupboard. And you wanted me to bring a third.

and I only have two candies I like. Did I get a red one? I only have one left in here. I've almost ate them all. It's a blue one. You want the blue? The kind of is blue. I don't know.

Do they have flavors? Oh, wait, it does say something. If it just says blue, I'm going to be very... Vanilla. It's literally vanilla. It's the most generic flavor. I'm down for vanilla. Yeah, go for you.

You have my last fruit shoot because I'm a salt-of-the-earth guy, just like my mom. I learn from the best. All right, dude. And I grant you my last fruit chute. Well, you know what she sounds like? It's not actually my third favorite, but it's the third I have here. There's only two candies I eat these days. And you know what?

Your mom sounds like a... Mm-mm. Your mama sounds like a candy girl. And I will tell you, ladies and gentlemen. In that story, I guess so, yeah. I don't know what else they meant by Candy Girl. Yeah, I don't know. I didn't pay attention to the words.

What are you getting at New Edition? I think they were just talking about a girl in the playground that was sweet because that was what most of New Edition songs were like back in the 80s. But we're going to make it your mom who brought you fruit chews in your stocking. And I will tell you, vanilla was fantastic. It was good. It worked out. I'm a candy fan.

It's stuck in my teeth. I don't mind. You get a cavity, bro. They gave us five things. Never happened. But teeth are too strong for that. The cavity. I don't get...

Yeah, exactly. All right, they gave you five flavors, but I could tell you out of my experience with this case, cherry. Cherry was my favorite, which is probably not as good as your hair bows. Cherries are always the best.

Pink ones, yeah. I love cherry. It is true that when you get like a package, like a multi-pack of candies, Like the pink ones usually end up playing, you know? Like the pink, red, pink never let you down. Every once in a while.

Orange, orange can be sussed. Yellow, very questionable. Always, especially if it's banana. What is that one? This one's lemon. Yeah, lemons are cool. But if they're banana, I'm always like,

ugh. When you see green flavored candy, what are you thinking? Either apple or watermelon. This one's lime. Got me. In those instances, I'm most happy when it's like a green watermelon. I don't know why.

I've never had a green watermelon. We know the outside covering is, but that's not what a watermelon looks or taste like. So who are you fucking with there? But like I would be, I, yeah, anytime I see green watermelon,

I just, that's what they are, especially when it comes to, Harroweau, their green is watermelon. But, yes. I'm not a big fan of sour green,

but sometimes, it's like, sometimes they actually hit the best in the pack. Yeah. It's a very big gamble when you get, when you deal with sour green apple. Remember those ones at the candy shop? That would be like,

it would be, it would look like a little, it would be a flat green apple. And it was kind of had the texture. With the caramel? No, not like a full-on caramel one. Carmel apples. It would be like a gummy.

It would be a gummy, like little green apple thing. I remember those at the candy shopper. The sweet, what did they call that? They had those in the mall. It would be like the Sweet Factory or something like that. I used to go to telling that. Oh, yeah, sweet factor. That was the first place I robbed and I got two gummy beers and I felt so bad about it.

I never robbed anything ever again. You said it was the first place. Suggesting maybe there's another one. Don't look at his records. But it's fine. The Sweet Factory. actually used to be like my Toys R Us, which is now my, I don't really have a happy place like that. Where do I go to have a happy experience?

Like when I was a kid, it was like going to Toys R Us, going on the Sweet Factory. It was like, get my endorphins going out. I don't know. Where do you get your second candy from that you're about to announce? You want me to go right to it? Oh yeah, we're moving, dude. What's your second? Where do you get these from?

I think that's your happy place. Well, it's not my happy place, but I always... Where do you get it from? Trader Joe has some of the best snacks. And I like... And I try not to say that's his favorite. That's his second. That's his...

I'm talking Scandinavian swimmers. Where my Joe's heads at? Dude, I don't even want one of those. You, it'll change your life, dude. You think Haribos are good? These are fucking going to rock your world. I just got to say, my girlfriend is going to be so bad at me because she's like, you shouldn't eat so much sweets.

And I'm going absolutely ham on sugar right now. That was before we did a whole episode on candy. Yeah. Go ahead and reach in her. She told me, be careful with the candy. I was like, I will. I won't eat that much. Scandinavian swimmers are my,

Jam. I discovered these a few years ago. And now this and then the other one, there's two candies I like from Trader Joe's. And they're the only can I have never, I've not like bought candies like ever really, not since I was a kid. Now all of a sudden in the past couple years, if I am low on Scandinavian swimmers, I'm like, all right, I got to go back to Trader Joe's. It's time for another Trader Joe's runs, which by the way, the Trader Joe's by me is right next to a five below. So next time I go there, maybe I can hit a five below. Scope it up. Get up up up because those that you just showed me suck.

Bullshit. You're just trying to be a contrarium. No, I'm not. I'm being honest. I've been throughout. I told you. Did I not tell you that vanilla was delicious and those whack-ass fruit chew that are even? They're so much better than white-ass fruit chew.

Don't, if you guys like Trader Joe, unless Trader Joe wants to give us an endorsement, then they're delicious. Try the yellow one that's shaped like, no, I'm done. It's shaped like a squid.

They don't have a gummy. They don't have a gummy. It's more like a, yeah, they are. This one's shaped like a fucking, a herbal gummy it's like a what what is this I don't know what's the uh what's this this is a sea horse sea horse they they shit out their kids when they shoot it up but this is

the best one it's like a mini shark it's blue all right blue can be the best flavor sometimes too all right my number two coming in hot i'm coming in hot we should have that anyways we played in my is a five another five below and this one you can only five at five below ladies and gentlemen, I think you know them. I know them. Castle definitely doesn't know them. Cookie dough, birthday style. Are you a fan? I've never heard of it.

I don't. There's a snack at the movie theater. Go ahead and give us a comment, subscribe, whatever, because we're supposed to do that because all podcasters do it and shit. And let me know, are you a fan? Let me see what the inside package looks like. I'm curious. Those are way smarter, I thought. I remember there was a snack at the movie theater when I was a kid that kind of had to look like that a little bit.

Okay. I don't know if it was cookie dough or not. Can I give a little advice with these? And all candies. Make sure you check the expiration date. They mean something. Now, one time I had one of these, I didn't realize the expiration date. This wasn't a thing of mine at that point.

And it was about a month and a half late. I was like, I can't be that bad. They were gross. Okay. Do not let that happen. The expiration date on these ones currently, let me check, is May 26. So we're good. Hey, remember.

We're solid. That just reminded me. When we were kids, I got some of these. There's two. I'm legitimately angry that you're trying to dissick Ganeavis swivers. I didn't like them. I didn't like them. I didn't like them.

I'm doing honest with you. There's like six different flavors. There's like six different flavors. in or something. As if, like, let's go through this mind thought for a second. Let's go through this practice.

So there's some bad guy in your neighborhood out there who's, like, game plan is like, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to fuck with kids by putting a razor in their lollipop. A razor in their racists. You're never going to see coming. You're not going to know until I get home.

And I'm just going to be silently laughing my dick off. Got you fucking kid. Now, stupid kids. Would you say that you've known me long enough? Am I considered a candy man? Absolutely. I forget how long of the intro this is.

We're skipping to the beginning. I know, I like the intro. All right, we let the intro, come on. This beat fucking rails. It does. Here we go. Candy! Be my sugar daddy.

I love candy. What did you think? I thought you were going to get to the part where it says, Be My Sugar Daddy, baby. That's later in the song. Because you have the Sugar Daddy hat that I think is actually just a pair of boxers shorts that's tied to your head. It is. I will show you right now.

Wait a minute. Does it say that? I think if she comes with a whole new bird. That's later. It is. It's the second one because it leads to the ride out. Yeah, yeah. Which, by the way, why I love that song.

God damn, there are some good candy songs. You're right. Wait, real quick, how'd you think of the cookie dough? It was gangster. Yeah, I loved it. Oh, I knew he liked it. Because Kokidu is undefeated. You know what my favorite ice cream flavor is?

Chocolate cream cucketow? Rainbow Sherbert. No, I'm just kidding. Yeah, it's cooking. Damn it. I like, yeah, no. Cooketos is the best. Real quick, let's go to this.

There's two different in candy and snacks and ice cream. There's two different ways you go with it. There's the fruit-tastic stuff. and then you're right my mouth is watering now after eating some Scandinavian stores I hear you it's hard to talk I would normally recommend eating candy on a podcast

unless you're doing a whole candy episode but like okay so you either go the sweet the like fruity fructastic stuff or like the chocolate cookie dough variety and there's both ways you can go and sometimes it depends on what mood you're in so if I'm more in that

if I'm getting ice cream which is not often but like I would either what mood am I in my end if I'm more in the fruittastic variety Rambo Sherbert. The other one, I will go with Chocotup Koke-Doh. Those are like my two go-toes.

Can we show everybody my release of my hat? You called it out. Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a hat. This is not a hat. It is shorts. A pair of boxer shorts.

Why do you have Sugar Daddy boxer shorts? This is from a trip that I DJed in North Carolina and the bag that I took there got held up in the airplane. So I had no clothes.

I had no pajamas. I had no sleepwear, I had no suit, I had nothing. So I had to go to Kmart. Who knows Kmart? It was still around at this time, and it was the only store in this city that was in North Carolina, and I bought some pajamas. They were really soft, by the way.

It's good Kmart by. I could tell by looking at them, yeah. It's a soft feel. And then I bought a suit, I bought a fedora hat. A suit while you were in a camera? Like a wedding. Just a nice outfit with a fedora hat because it was more a beating.

Wait, your sole suitcase got lost? It just, yeah, I didn't come in. time. Okay. It got because it was the delayed flight and then I got there and the wedding was, when I landed, it was three hours away from the wedding was supposed to be there. And I needed to get clothes. So I just bought about $150, $200 worth of clothes, just cheap shit.

$20 shoes, $10 underwear pajamas. That's not cheap. Whatever, but I spent $200 and got a bunch of shit and there's my sugar daddy and I wore it as a hat, which you didn't want to know. And if I didn't take it off. and now I'm to my bald self. Don't you feel stupid that you didn't know that that's what that house was. You thought it was a hat. You thought it was a hat. It wasn't.

It's okay. We could all laugh at them because that was the worst candy in the lot. There's never been a worse candy made than Sugar Daddy. I stand by that. That shit will fuck your teeth up for a week. Oh, yeah. It'll get a thing stuck in it. You'll never actually have a satisfying bite of it.

Why were the, we're talking about hard candies earlier? Why did it? Yes, I see it. Yeah. Why are you presenting it for like, it was on your head this whole episode. We've seen it. I don't know why the makers are.

of Sugar Daddy, if they had tried to at least make it a little bit soft, might have been honest. I think you just had a... I think you just had a... Nobody's had a fresh Sugar Daddy for at least since 1976. I mean, yeah. They stopped making those, I feel like a long time, but then they're still in circulation.

They made so many of them. Milk, caramel, pop. Maybe that's why, because it's a pop. It's really hard. Anyway, you're right. They sucked. They sucked. They sucked. Glad you didn't bring that. But I'm glad I did do it during that episode because he's right. And later in that candy man,

episode. It says, Be my sugar daddy. Just play that part right now. I got to find it, though. I love that song. That beat right out is the best beat right out.

I can think of. I hope I find it on time. Here we go. In music. Yeah. That's like a castle. And I both love that ride. My only wanted.

La. Oh, I can't do it like she does. When I hear it now, a modern memory I have of it was that one time when we lived together at the old house. And then we found rollerblades in the yard, or in the garage. And then we were skating. Because I know because I still have the clip pulls up in my phone every now and then, and you had your speakers set up around the living room.

Oh, yeah. And we were trying to skate around the living room and we were playing that song in the background. It was like a glorious memory. That's one of the few things. Like, when you care about your floors, you won't do that. But this house had some pretty fucked up wooden floors. I was like, we're turning this into a skating. It's old wooden floors.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. There was no reason. I forgot. I forgot. I forgot. Thanks for that memory. It's a great memory.

Send me that next time it pops up. I want to see that. I love when you sent me that shit because that shit's funny I just had some matter of the video I'll be playing it right here there's straight There it is

Yeah yeah you can see it Cool All right We're down to our final candies here You never gave your number two Oh yeah you did Your cookie dough bullshit

You said you liked it You said they're fantastic Yeah it's just how I worded it All right All right number one Sticking with the Trader Joe's theme Two Before you continue

Did I not say That's his new toys or Russ That's two His top two I said that already. That's how I started. I said the only place I like to go with candy anymore. Trader Joe's.

Trader Joe's fruit jellies. These things are the bum dizzy, dude. Talk about like once you get into one, you might be like, all right, I'm just going to have like two or three of them. Next thing you know, you're like 25 deep.

These hit with me. I don't know. Hey, I don't candy judge with anybody of what works for them. But these things pop. I'm the candy man and I judge. I'm going to get into them right now. While you go over,

You're gonna, you don't need to put the thing on your head anymore. It's fine. No. Now it just looks like you're putting a pair of candyman underwear on your head. What is it called? Sugar Daddy? Yeah, I don't want one of those, dude. I don't want one of that. Good morning.

You enjoy it, dude. You know what? I bet you know you didn't get those from? These will fucking put Haribo in the dirt. No. These are so much better. You got the fuck out of here with your hair bow. I'm not fucking gone.

So seductive I take you to the candy shop You know what I like about this? What? We're doing this like right after Valentine's Day And if you're hungry for candy The best time to hit up any store for cheap candy Go for Valentine's Day

Like the next few days Yeah, yeah Because they're all trying to get rid of their Halloween Valentine's candy right now That are like in heart-shaped boxes and everything And it's super half off and they're still fresh. They'll be like down at 25%.

Yeah. And it's like, what was that? Like a few days ago? Yeah, it's not bad. You're right. When I was in high school,

I worked at Albertsons. And I remember we had a whole display for like Valentine's Day that was like at the front of the store, you know, during Valentine's Day. Mm-hmm. And I remember working there one time like after Valentine's Day and like all the Valentine's candy was like marked down like 25%. And I remember like asking like my boss. I was just like they had like those,

a bunch of those like heart box chocolate. And I was like, hey, so you guys trying to get rid of these? Like, can I just like have some? And then my boss was like, you literally just take all of them. Like, we just need to get rid of them. We're going to throw them away at the end of the night. So there was like 20 of them. And I was literally like, fuck and I'm in.

Say less. And I filled up my whole trunk. So for like a few months there, my trunk was just full of like heartbox candy. Because I just was like, I've always been to type where I'm like, I don't want to like throw stuff away. If something has value, especially I used to work in the grocery store. I remember taking it when we had a crispy cream put in in the grocery store. At the end of the night, sometimes they would throw them away and they would just have like a whole like, we're throwing all these crispy creams where I'm like fucking bring up this way.

No, you're not. Dude, I'll fucking find a home for him. I don't know how I want to eat all these is, but like I can't watch you just throw them away. It's hard to watch people throw away good food. So yeah, for like a couple months in high school, I had like, it looked like I was everybody's Valentine's if you opened my trunk because it was like, why do you have 49 boxes of Valentine's? Candy it's like I don't know man I'm just at that point you could have been many ladies Candyman be a sugar daddy baby and then they would have sounded like this deal candy man tell him the truth we'll still end up knocking the boots so never ever ever gonna let you go once I get my hands on you oh I love you so never ever ever gonna let you go I hope you feel the same way too girl I do I do.

Oh, the Candyman, dude. The Candy Man is the artist on that one. That's the name of the artist. Name of the artist. And the song is knocking the boots, obviously. But. I wasn't knocking the boots. Yeah.

No, H-Thing Boots. I think of Knocking Boots. It's knocking boots. But that was by the Candy Man. I think that's his only track he ever had. I was going to say, that song doesn't necessarily play, but it still works. Are we still, do we even call out? I mean, we did a 50 cent one.

Yeah, we got one more to go. I got this one. I feel like... This is a classic one. Let me do this one real quick. What kind of candy you want? Sweet chocolate. Chocolate's malt for candy.

Gumb drops anything you want. You've come to the right man because I'm the candy man. Can we just say Sammy Davis Jr. Sounds like an absolute creep with this. The fuck was that song. What year was that? The Candy Man, Sammy Davis Jr. I'm not sure what's year.

I'll look it up real quick. Let me see. Dude, this has been like, there's been multiple times on this podcast. where like you played a song from like the 60s or something or like before that where I'm like what the fuck was happening in music every other song that we've played is such a so much more jam to it or sexiness to it or swing to it or vibe or anything that you want to put on it where you're like I can listen to that all the time I don't know how anybody was listening to music back then that we're like let's hey play the candy man do you play the candy man song again about 1971 that's it yeah it's not like 1940 right something like that but no 1971 and it topped off it was hit the

Billboard Top 100 for three weeks starting in June of 20 1972 it was his only it was his only number one hit dude what the fuck Sammy D only had one that was it

that was it that was his number one jam in 71 72 yeah what kind of music society do we live in where that was you know when sometimes people like always talk about how like the Beatles were like by far the greatest he beat him bad of all time is it not maybe and like the rolling stones and like the the music that we hear about from that time being like the best music ever and you hear them now and you're like I mean it's all right I don't really that was even all right there's no chance how was that

this is what I'm getting at when you hear the Beatles you hear the the the rolling starts like some of these like music or like Bob Dylan or something when you're like I don't know I guess but then you hear some music like that was like that was like top of the charts for like five months and it's like is it maybe that just music back then by and large suck no man because there's there's jams it's 701 I can show you there of course there is that's what I mean but then like the music taste music taste music that was being like propped up like you would get in your car and that would just be playing not ironically it would just be playing that music like And the new semi-David song is making everybody.

Ask their mom, hey, can I have some candy for breakfast? Candy man. Wait, all the great songs, stop it. This sounds like a shitty intro to a bad sitcom in 1984. All the songs that we've played, that's the one you go back for? I want to have a discussion about which songs have because so many of these candy songs have been really good Okay at the end of it we'll go back for which one's the best

But I know you had one you had one that is one of your favorites And I do feel like we need to go back to like what the original of this episode was And that was cameo candy right So that song has been remixed a few times One most notably by Mr. Will Smith I don't think I've ever heard this castle was telling me about it I was like, what? Yes, because back in the day when you had music,

like you just have like a few CDs that you like. Will Smith's Big Willie style was one of my most played CDs when I was a kid. Yes. Oh, man, I lost. It's like right in the middle of the CD. It's like track five and four or five. And I actually think it comes on like right after getting jiggied with it. So it's like prime placement on the album.

And honestly, this is my intro to this song because Cameo is actually featured on this track and you'll hear him in just a second. But I listen to this song into the gram. I don't remember this song. I don't believe you. Let me check it this out. All right. Actually, yep, it goes intro.

Y'all know getting jiggy with it, followed by Candy. Right after getting jigger with it, just like I said. Yeah. So I didn't even know about cameo's version like when I used to listen to the CD. And this became like my favorite song on the album. And he does his whole verse in the middle that was especially my favorite because he raps using the description of all these candies and you're here in a second this is how you rap about candy right here let's go she said your ex-boyfriends mike and ike's both lemon haze

i ain't trying to play a hey girl i know that you go with for zooka joe now you know he like that he trying to get a rec piece of a kit cat really hunt what he need is a jawbreaker because i'm the one that i'll love your baby now and later be my peppermint daddy with a hundred wishes and i be your hers your daddy with a hundred kisses get the twins m&ems the book is out of flight today me and you can star first two to the milky way i don't care what it costs girl a hundred grand we can snicker all night at my jolly ranch just me and you or call your friends up to because i can get my boys big roof and charlest and chewed and wow i'm talking about he made me happy my deal will smith's greatest of candy he did a great job mixing all the different candy names

don't you love that that was incredible creative concept still the best hip-hop that willie is drop that say yeah that was cool there is one more remix of the song that has actually been a favorite of mine one of the early princesses of hip-hop rmb queen of the 90s maria carey made a remix of this song that also is in the running of my favorite moriah carry track which i've stated on record before but because we're going over candy uh i have to play this song is called lover boy Gloss of the lips Hickie's on the chest or the toss of the hips Mood!

I think I'm flaskin' a sea Honey, I've done it so I'm exhausted it's a... Oh, yeah, get it right with your heartbreaker, I'll keep it tight, but I can laugh now, but you cry later. I think I like you in your freak clothes, freak those in my specialized peep soles

and then I make you touch your knees to your elbow, toes curl for these three the mail row. It's cool to see I like it will be smoked at, so choked that. Oh, here comes your line Oh my god Oh my god Oh my girls with your rule that

I got my lover That's what I live I can advise me a love I come live Here Oh my sugar daddy Takes me For me

For me Whatever we're going to miss To live in time She's all There you go. I like it. Will Smith had to break you out a little bit. That was cool, though.

I liked that Mariah did it. I like it. And she actually brings in cameo at the end of the song, which, by the way, remind me when we go over the original cameo song, does at the end of his original version, does he do the thing where he's like, strawberry, raspberry, all knows good things? Yeah, yeah. Okay, we won't play it now because I feel like there's another one you want to play.

but we need to end the episode with that part because that part was actually absolutely hilarious especially with the way Cameo is doing his fucking 80s dance moves with the red jock strap which he thought We will definitely end with that Okay so we have this song and then we're going to end with that And in between I'm going to give you guys my top number one

Yeah you still haven't even given us I haven't given to you but first listen to this remix Snacking on Chili's over here Having my repertoire from my boy DJ John James made this Let's see how it sounds Oh yeah my boy mixed him bad bunny Who we just got done doing a fantastic

episode with with candy rain and i know i played it earlier but i found it i was like i got those back in here real quick i started trying to do the candy rain effect with my fruit jellies the uh and what happened it didn't play didn't play all right ladies and gentlemen i have made it this is time for my number one the best candy i've ever had and my girlfriend is gonna hate me because it has the red 40 blue one yellow five and yellow six which are all the worst toxins apparently that candies can have but all of those are just code words for Awesome. That actually don't mean anything.

I agree. Science wants you to believe. But with that said, ladies and gentlemen, I'm giving it to you. Cherry airheads. Cherry airheads. The best candy on earth. These things melt in your mouth, not in your hand, and sometimes in your hand, and you'll still look your hand because they are amazing. Castle, have you ever tried?

I haven't. All right. Well, you know what? We're going to finish with cameo, and I'm going to give you a piece, and you're going to try it while we listen. And we watch this man, get his dance on. Here we go. The best candies, the only candies. Did that melt your mouth?

Isn't that delicious? They really do. And I always remember getting the big cases of them when I was a kid. Airheads never don't play. Like, they're another one where you could have just snack on like nine in a row. You bite it on you, you're suiting them out. I still go with my cheddar jos. Although, that brings up a good question.

Out of all the candy jams that we played today, which one do you rank at the top of the mountain? What do you got? I feel partial to the candy man, Myself by the Mary Jane girls. I just feel like that beat, the way it rides out. I never get sick of hearing it. I almost got to give it to that one, man.

I feel like that one. And I like to be the contrarian, but I'm not. Candyman is the best. The way it rides out, has memories with you and I. It's all about the beat ride out, right? That beat. We got to give it. You don't get music that rides out like that anymore, and I miss that.

I miss that. So with that, we've got a ride out. And I hope you guys, go get some candy. Go to your dentist afterwards. I got a little bit of a stomachache at this point. I've eaten so much candy over the last like 30 minutes, but I don't care because I am the candy man and we are about to listen to her. Finish it all, Mary Jane.

Come on, ladies.
