JAMIE: Hello.
Welcome to Awesome Time.
This is the show where I tell you
about all of the new stuff going on at Vat19.
And stick around, we're doing a Golden Gummy Challenge.
I'm down 3-1, but I'm coming back strong.
ERIC: Is it 4-1?
JAMIE: No, it's 3-1.
ERIC: All right.
JAMIE: 3-1.
Soon it's going to be 3-2.

I think it would be fun if you would put in your comments--
you can just type in the number of your favorite Awesome Time
episode to date.
There's been 131 of them.
So just put down which of the 130 were your favorite.
All right it's time for sponsorships and outstanding
reviews and recommendations.
Yeah.
I'm actually super excited about this product.
I'm always excited about the sponsorships though.
For other sponsors.
OK, I'm always excited.
This is the Pixel Kit from Kano.
What you end up making from the kit
is this light board that has 128 pixels on it.
You can play games with it.
But what makes it really cool is that you
can program this thing.
As a programmer myself--
OK?
Programmer.
[CLAPPING] Right here, yeah.
Thank you.
Thank you, thank you.
I think that's awesome.
And this isn't just for kids, although kids can do it.
Anyone can program with this.
Let's just quickly look at what you get in the box, OK?
An extremely easy to follow illustrated instruction guide
for how to build this and how to start programming it.
Some dope stickers.
And then the parts are inside here.
Here's your light board.
Here's the brains of the thing here.
Cable to connect it to your computer.
Buttons, joystick, battery, little control knob.
And here is a tilt sensor.
I've already got mine built. You can
do a lot of interesting things with this light board,
even before you've connected it to a computer.
I've got it in, I guess, music mode.
It's reacting to my voice.
If I go back, there's some other light modes.
Tilt sensor.
I'm holding it upright, everything's sort
of falling down this way.
And then I go like so, and it senses the tilt.
I'm going to hook mine up.
And I thought we could build a little program real quick.
OK, I'm going to make something really simple.
But it shows you how easy it is to program with this.
It has a microphone sensor.
So what I want to do is have it show me
how loud the input volume is.
And change the color depending on how loud it is.
I'm just going to drag some pieces in here.
And I'm going to show the text based on the volume.
Of So we'll just do, how about light
blue from where I'm talking.
So I don't know if you can see this number changing on here
and as I'm talking.
It probably just showed it once because I've
got to add a block in here.
So now it should be updating.
As I'm talking, that number should be changing.
That took like three blocks that I dropped in there.
I can drop another one of these blocks in here
and change the color.
So when the mic volume goes over, let's say, I don't know,
let's make that 90.
Let's still show that microphone volume,
but have it do it in red.
So scream something loud Eric.
Let's see if it turns colors.
ERIC: 8-19!
JAMIE: Got up to like 300 there.
So that was a really simple program
that I made there, just using the microphone input.
But the possibilities with the Pixel Kit are enormous.
You can pull data in from other sources
and have it display on here.
Like weather and sports and news, and stuff like that.
The programming language is extremely robust.
Take it from me-- programmer.
[CLAPPING] Thank you.
Thank you.
To get your own Kano Pixel Kit, just check out
our link in the description.
You're really going to have a lot of fun with this.
All right.
Let's get going here.
OK, [? Cara, ?] I'm excited for the first product.
This should have been the second product, right?
Oh!
Poo jokes are coming, right?
This is Sticky the Poo!
And it is a squishable, sort of moldable, emoji thing.
It's got this squishy core on the inside.
It's fun to throw at stuff.
It's indoor and outdoor.
Compatible, I suppose.
And if it does get a little dirty,
you can just rinse it off.
I think we need to demo this a little bit more.
So let's call in our favorite demo dude.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
ERIC: D- E- M- O!
Demo!
JAMIE: All right, here we go.
No, no.
Come back.
I want to do it again.
OK.
Oh, oops.
Sorry.
I thought you were going to have it up.
[LAUGHING] All right, that's Sticky the Poo!
Get yours now at Vat19.
Oh, I'm excited.
Throw me that box.
So here are the six flavors of pie sodas.
We've got cherries and cream.
I think this is strawberries and cream.
This is apple pie, key lime.
I think this is lemon meringue.
And finally, the peaches and cream soda.
These are all made in the USA.
And they are all made using pure cane sugar.
So none of that high fructose junk.
This is the real deal.
There's a little bit of peaches and cream for you.
Oh, yeah.
Lemon meringue.
Oh, key lime I think is one of my favorite pies.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's real good.
Eric wants to do the apple pie.
ERIC: I like it.
JAMIE: Good.
All right, folks.
This is the six pack of pie sodas.
Get yours now.
You deserve it.
Cara, I got this.
I got this.
Oh, I do.
It's called I Got This.
It's a good joke, right Eric?
ERIC: Nailed it.
JAMIE: All right.
This is I Got This.
And it's a really fun party game for 2 to 12 players.
It's basically a collection of skills and challenges.
And you pick a challenge, and then
you also pick how many points you will get
if you get the challenge right.
So every time you hear the challenge,
you kind of get to bet how good you're going to do at it.
I think the best way for me to really describe
I Got This is to actually do it.
So I Got This is this episode's Golden Gummy Challenge.
Come on in here, Eric.
ERIC: Heyo!
JAMIE: Let's open it up.
ERIC: I see buttons, balls, measuring tape.
Hoops, cards.
Do some crafts.
JAMIE: So I Got This is a game that
would take a little bit longer than we've got time to do here.
So instead of playing all nine of these,
we're just going to play two.
And whoever has the most points after two rounds wins.
Why don't you go first and roll this die here.
ERIC: How do you roll this thing?
JAMIE: You just kind of toss it.
ERIC: Just kind of flop it.
BOTH: Blue.
ERIC: Blue circle.
JAMIE: Grab one of these blue cards--
ERIC: So I take one of these.
JAMIE: Yeah, and read it to us.
ERIC: Using either hand, throw a ping pong
ball over your shoulder from behind your back
and catch it in front of you with the other hand,
JAMIE: You got to see how confident you
are and choose a score.
How many points you want to win ahead of time.
You only get one chance at it, unless you were
to use your do over a card.
Or you could use your I Got This card, which
would double the number of points you would get.
ERIC: I'll go eight.
JAMIE: Wow.
You feel really confident you can do that.
Gosh.
OK, I'm going with four.
ERIC: Oh, OK.
[LAUGHING] That was close.
JAMIE: Wow.
You got eight points.
ERIC: [LAUGHING] It's hard to catch, isn't it?
JAMIE: It's so hard to catch.
So I have no points and you have eight.
ERIC: All right.
JAMIE: Dang it.
Place the I Got This box six feet away
and toss the ring into the box.
The ring must remain in the box.
ERIC: Can't bounce out.
Let's go two.
JAMIE: I'm going to go with nine.
Because if you miss, then I could win.
So I have to go with nine.
OK.
Do over.
Oh!
Are you kidding me?!
ERIC: [LAUGHING]
JAMIE: Get out of here.
ERIC: [INAUDIBLE] my award ceremony.
JAMIE: Ah!
ERIC: All right.
She's cooking up something good for this, I think.
JAMIE: Winner creates the bacon surprise for the loser.
ERIC: Oh, I get the create it.
JAMIE: I don't know what that means.
A bacon surprise.
ERIC: Oh.
It just might be good, Jamie.
JAMIE: OK.
That's-- OK.
Nice.
Well baking soda there.
OK.
ERIC: Hook me up, Cara.
All right.
That's strong.
Oh, it went right up the nose.
It's this.
JAMIE: Wait, what are you doing?
ERIC: It's this.
That makes it real strong.
It splashed on me.
JAMIE: Oh, dude, that's all I can do of that.
ERIC: Have a little bit more though.
JAMIE: Dude, that's all I can do of that.
ERIC: Really?
JAMIE: OK, I'll do one more little sip for you.
That's not fun.
ERIC: [LAUGHING]
JAMIE: Hit me, Cara.
Sweet, delicious gummy is what I have for you here.
These are gummy jet fighters.
OK.
They come in this big five pound bulk bag.
Here's what these little guys look like.
And each one of them has two different colors
because each jet fighter is dual flavored, which is awesome.
OK, so the three different flavor combos
are orange and lemon, blue raspberry and lemon,
and cherry and lemon.
And they are all super good.
For you aviation enthusiasts, here
are the five different fighters.
We've got the SR-71 Blackbird.
An F/A-18 Hornet.
We've got a B-2 Spirit, the B-2 Bomber.
It's one of my favorites.
We've got the F-117 Nighthawk.
And finally, the F-15 Eagle.
If I got any of those wrong, just flame on in the comments.
They're super delicious.
They would go perfect with our gummy army men, of course.
So get all of your awesome gummy at Vat19 right now.
I'll just be here snacking.
This is cool.
You're going to like this, this is cool.
Go ahead and toss that in.
Thank you, Cara.
All right, this is not a regular, box.
This is the box of happy accidents.
There's a lot to unpack here when it comes to this product.
So how is this different than the mystery boxes?
One, pretty much every single box
is different from the next box.
Two, the stuff in here is at a serious discount
because there's probably a little something wrong with it.
It usually doesn't make the product unusable,
but it might just be--
well, for instance.
This pot of green hot chocolate, its pot has a dent in it.
So it's stuff that might have shown up
to us dented in some way.
It might also have been a sample that we
used to take photos for the website or used in the video
that we made for the product.
And it's perfectly fine.
It's just we opened it to take photos or make a video.
And we can't sell it normally.
This is the ultimate brick maker kit.
And I think this is the one that we
used to take photos for the web page.
So that's awesome.
And this is just a color that we don't sell.
Because this product is made up of these things that
happened by accident, we have super limited quantities
of them.
We can only make like 10 or 15 of them at a time.
So as soon as we put this up on the site,
you're going to want to grab it.
Because it's going to be gone within a day or two.
This is the box of happy accidents.
It's really cool.
And someone out there might actually get this actual box.
And another box will probably have completely different stuff
in it.
The retail value is always great.
We really strive to make sure that you get, like, three
times or more what you paid.
So that's the box of happy accidents.
If you like surprises, get yourself one.
OK, we have so many new products.
And I don't have time to do the full Awesome Time
treatment for all of them.
So we're going to do some Bullet Time.
All right, here we go.
OK, this is Hawaiian Punch cotton candy.
It's cotton candy flavored like Hawaiian Punch.
Oh, OK.
Got to go.
Oh, gosh.
OK, this is-- You're going to pour it?
No, I've got to pour it.
This is the Super Mario heat change mug.
Let's get that hot water in there.
Oh, dear.
It's going to change-- oh, I'm out of time.
Yeah.
I can't do that so fast.
This is the Llama Duster.
It's a little duster for your desk.
But looks like a llama, you've got to move it around.
Craft Beer Pretzel mix.
You just add beer.
Boom, you can make pretzels.
Why do I sound like Emeril?
All right, here we go.
This is the Jumbo Lighter.
Huge lighter.
Kind of looks like [INAUDIBLE] with a Z. Can't say the name.
All right.
And there's your heat change mug.
That's dope.
OK, it's time for fan art.
[MUSIC PLAYING] Thank you all so much for the amazing fan art.
I loved it.
