Yeah, it's pretty easy to find in my local chain grocery and drug stores (US). It's not a "candy" flavor like the Halls ones, but it does the job when you're desperate.

I've known about them for a long time but I'm in Canada so maybe it never made its way over to the states. Looks like they kept it mostly in the UK until the 60s when they started to expand

Denying you're indie is very indie, Shane.
Fisherman's Friend has been around the Midwest for decades. I've always considered them old timer's cough drops. Sort of like grandma's circus peanuts and rock candy sticks, and butterscotch hard candy.
Steven and or Matt PLEASE take Shane and Ryan to Gatlinburg, I need this.
The new Watcher studio logo looks so good. I love the attention to detail with the small objects from their shows that show in the circles in the corners.
listening to them all laugh about my tweet at 41:56 has made my Monday!
We need the Watcher Fast Food Face Off! Taste testing similar offerings from different local restaurants.
Insects: land arthropoda. Lobsters, shrimps and crabs: water arthropoda Lobster is bugs, shrimp is bugs.
Yes, it is a pretty comforting song :) I love the Lofi vibe, which I listen to while working between podcasts & stories.
After I heard "he jumped out from behind the garbage can", I expected the roach to have attacked Chuck-Norris-style, and that Shane would show us all the bruises he got from the assault on his shins.
Ryan's taco tradition reminds me of my wife and I's old tradition with Buzzfeed Unsolved. Every Friday, we'd get street tacos from our favorite place, some sort of chips and salsa/queso/etc on the side, and we'd watch the newest episode together on our TV.
The ending of this podcast is everything 😂
Anxiously awaiting some ghost hunting and some too many spirits.
I’m so glad yall are back 😄🙌🏼
Ah yes, Ryan and Shane going full ‘tism
YESSSS I get so excited every Monday
I literally ordered 6 tacos and curly frys from Jack and a Crack this morning after seeing the dentist!!
As a former CVS employee, they have sold Fisherman's Friend for years
Shane's description of Jack in the Box tacos is 100% accurate
Thanks fellas, needed some Watcher in my life this afternoon.
So close to a Life of Pi reference when Ryan mentioned monkeys and orange juice in the same sentence
Balto is straight-up my favorite animated film from my childhood - I love Balto! Incredibly surprised that Ryan saw it and Shane hasn't!
Fisherman's Friend lozenges have been around since the late 1800's and they work amazingly for me. Just because they aren't a big brand you don't know about, Steven, doesn't mean they aren't worth trying.

some brands are so underrated imo
McDonald's sausage burrito is my fav fast food breakfast, I feel you Steven!!
I think this is the most chaotic episode in a while. A+
McGriddle fan. I love those syrup infused biscuits and then combined with the eggs, sausage, and cheese... gotta get another one of those soon.
32:20 Please tell me Shane was also wearing his night hat as he chased this cockroach...

43:38 when they all started talking i laughed so harddd 😭😂😂😂😂
Fisherman’s friend is such a memory for me!! Love them
I cannot believe Shane, from Chicago, has not heard of Fisherman's Friend! I'm from northeastern Ohio and they were staples growing up. It's kind of like the Corn Huskers Lotion of cough drops.
My cousins and I use to watch the rain on the side back windows on car trips and pretend they were racing. We'd each choose a drop and cheer it on lol. We called them skiers.
On the twister movie note, I chase storms, and I’ve chased behind Reed Timmer, formerly from the tv show tornado chasers and he worked on the movie twisters (primarily for accuracy) and I’ve been super excited for the new movie learning what I have about naders and knowing that Reed is the craziest (but nicest) guy in the industry who has been INSIDE more tornadoes than almost anybody, if not anybody. So it should be pretty awesome. And on the note of chasing behind him: I don’t recommend it. He said he would take us to it. He drove his Subaru right into it. Poo came out of me. I would like to get in one of those tubes. But I would imagine it’s not a very similar feeling. I feel like I would just be a 34 year old overweight, loose skin male version of that famous Marilyn Monroe picture. Probably would look like a giant flying squirrel.

If you want to experience the wind tube, they are there at the Science and Industry museum in Chicago, IL.
I first heard of fisherman's friends through Canadian friends. Never heard of them before that tho. Very on-brand for Shane.
jack in the crack tacos are always soggy in the middle and crunchy around the outer edge due to the greese or meat juice soaking into the crunchy shell, the "meat" is more of a mush/paste. And they are usually always luke warm. But when your are drunk or super high they smack
this has to be my favourite episode many lols ! Sick Shane is the best
The best way to get into Mondays! 🎉❤
ROXABOXEN MENTION!! I loved that book so much as a kid. Laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe this episode-new fave ep my guys keep it up
Love the pod
The Breakfast Baconator at Wendy's is awesome.
Thanks guys keep up the good work
You made me eat the jack in the box tacos I had in my fridge xD dinner became lunch watching this
Technically, Ryan you ARE self-cleaning. Unless, of course someone else is bathing you.

Loungefly has a purse that looks like the jack in the box taco, not a taco but it hits the spot every time you get them lol 😂🤣
don’t really know if u care about internet opinions, but i haven’t gotten sick in like three years (not exaggerating, and I used to get fever EVERY year in the winter. plus regular colds) but i read a book on it and vitamins make all the difference. seriously, vitamin C (like 2000mg when u r sick), D3, minerals, fish oil, magnesium and B, like pharmacy quality, - you’ll be a different person in a week. And then take them regularly. If this gets ignored, oh well, great podcast guys thanks! ❤😊

I feel like we shouldnt be taking vitamins though. Shouldn't we be trying to incorporating this in our foods rather than taking 30 different pills?

@@jessw391 Totally, I’m super about nutrition and healthy foods and stuff. But honestly I’ve tried both and adding supplements makes a big difference. Nowadays unless you eat all kinds of foods in one day every day in the right doses (which is really hard to fit everything, nearly impossible really) we need to supplement the difference. Plus our food quality is much worse nowadays to supply for the crazy demand, so less vitamins there too.

8:20 this was the best Stephen interjection ever 😂😂 her mind has been poisoned!! 😂
Missed you!!
Twister is my favorite all time comfort movie and I’m cautiously hopeful for this movie lol
I hope they know because of this video I tried jack in the box tacos. As person who hasn’t been to Jack in the box in 10 years it was an eye opening experience. Thank you Ryan
43:38 Twister's font was created before Friends, lol.
I LOOOVVEEEE jack in the box tacos. No jack in the box in my area of Illinois but 45 minutes south and I get some wonderful, delicious, terrible tacos
Fisherman's Friend is my go-to candy/lozenges, especially for travelling. My favorite flavors are cinnamon, lemon, & spearmint/mint. I don't think it's as popular as Mentos or Maxx but it's available in almost all drugstores/pharmacies and groceries here in the Philippines.
The shock and nostalgia at Rocksaboxen. Hell yeah.
Best fast food tacos EVER!
I swear this show gets funnier every episode
This episode was so good
Everytime I use the tube in London, I have black snot. So its very common over here🤣
Love Matt’s commentary 🤍
Shane, I did the exact same thing a month ago. In times that we are at our most desperate, nothing soothes like the comfort of a (fishermen’s) friend.
I really needed that gross warning 😭
Years ago when I decided not to be a vegetarian anymore Jack in the Box tacos were the first thing I ate. I stand with Ryan.
Wow McGriddle with the rounded egg n bacon n hb’sis top tier McDonalds for me
“Wives” “Husbands” 😭🤝😭
There’s a place in Indiana called Pizza King where they deliver your drinks and pizza by train. I don’t know if it’s still open but I always remembered enjoying it.
Those tacos look more like Honduran corn pastelitos.
Yessss TWISTERS lol 😂 can’t wait
Love you guys 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
When I was a kid used to love Jack in the box that used to be in the Bronx in New York it was great I'm 65 now so this shows you how long ago that was at some other person sit in the seventies and eighties they were all over New York and I miss them so much I used to love everything they had you guys are so lucky that you can still get them I wish there was a way to send them to me but who could afford that not me.❤❤❤
i will never understand ryan's love for Jack in the Box tacos 😭
we have fisherman's friend pretty much in every gas station here in canada 😂 they are very common
roxaboxen and little Ninos pizzeria have lived rent free in my head since elementary school
The intro animation is very nice!
I’m laughing so hard to myself because I was talking about Fishermans friend 😢earlier in the week and those and the honees ones are the 2 cough drops I buy religiously. Good cough drop picking Shane.
Never been to a Jack in the Box but if I go I’ll be thinking of this pod lol
LMAO SHANE HANDING RYAN ANOTHER TACO
Jack-In-The-Box gave me food poisoning twice. You guys have one more chance.
Jack in the Box tacos with ranch and the hot sauce are the best
My mom LOVES jack in the box tacos! If we travel anywhere near Charlotte nc she's got to stop and get a bunch! She's from Texas and so when we visit family we go to that and whattaburger 😂
Whoa Steven with the rain drops, okay okay
I swear by Fisherman Friend lozenges. They are amazing if you keep them cheek and gum. Especially if your coughing at night and want some relief
Y'all made me so hungry for some tacos 😩
Fisherman's Friend is like Granny/Grays Herbal Tablets
Let the pod play and went to get Jack Tacos to try. Secured the Tacos and then waited for them to get theirs so the consistency would be similar, so unfortunately I missed out on the hot sauce. IMO tastes very similar to Taco Bell. The sleeve was uncomfortable so I took it out and held it so my hand would catch anything that fell and there was a quarter sized pool of oil after 1 😂 I don’t feel well lmaooo. TO BE FAIR I also had a small curly fries and my total was $5.70 so I would consider them really good for how cheap they were. After a really tiring event these would hit different. 7/10
Steven: Hmmm It's very Tom & Jerry-like...Shane & Roach.
Sunny Delight has oil in it 🤣 look at the ingredients. Shane I have heard of and used Fisherman’s Friend cough drops. Vitamin D is in milk and sunshine. Vitamin C is found in all citrus fruits. Keep up the Great work guys!!! Feel better soon Shane.
I can’t believe Steven mentioned gatlinburg tn! I’m so close to there, small world Also, yes the sausage burrito deserves a love letter!
I live in Washington state and have been munching on Jack in the box tacos for over a decade
So every time we go to Taco Bell we have to get our dog a soft taco without lettuce. It’s her favorite thing, so I can confirm dogs love tacos! 🌮 ❤
I love fisherman’s friends they work so well but I like the original flavor.😊
