The Jungle Jim's Podcast WJJI Studio

Jackson's sent me some samples of their tasty Sweet Potato Chips, conveniently fried in avocado oil and while I was originally just supposed to do a review, they inspired me to do something else with their spicy jalapeno option. In the world's largest grocery store and international market, we've got so many options of similarly spicy chips, Lucky and I had to find the best ones - so here we are today, selling ourselves out to find the ultimate spicy chips in Jungle Jim's!

This week i'm joined by Blesson Wilkerson, best known as ViralTokens. The man has been blanketing the nation with his incredible feats of strength through his now-viral handstands. Maybe you were working at the Hi-Mark one night when he came in to walk down a flight of stairs, maybe you were at Jungle Jim's while we were feeding him sandwiches while he walked on his hands, or maybe you're just one of the cool people who knew about him before we did. We love a guy trying to bring a little positivity to all communities especially through something fun and exciting like this, and the least I could do was have him test out some new crisps from FLOCK that I'd received as a sample. We're also talking deals in the store this week, and we've got plenty for ya! All that and more on the Jungle Jim's Podcast.

This week, we're joined by Mark Perkins of the Necessary Entrepreneur Podcast. You can check his show out at TheNecessaryEntrepreneur.com - I obviously would recommend episode 59 since I was the guest there. Mark is one of the best interviewers I've ever met, so we sat down to talk about some of what goes on behind the scenes of podcasts, and what goes through our heads when we're trying to create something interesting. We get to try the new Black Cherry from Hoist, as well as some flavors from Wilde Chips! All this and more on the Jungle Jim's Podcast!

This week, we're diving in with Oliver's Desserts carried at both Jungle Jim's locations while we're off to the Sweets and Snacks Expo in Indianapolis! Ashley from Oliver's Desserts has a world record idea to pitch too which sounds awesome - tune in and tell us what you think!

This week is stacked - feel free to treat it as multiple courses. Up first, we welcome Claire from Vienna Beef. You will laugh way more than you thought during a beef segment. Do we think I can be outlawed from Illinois for suggesting people put ketchup on their hot dogs? Find out soon. Then, I'm joined by the Cincinnati Rollergirls who come to help kick up a little chaos with me in the store just in time for their next big match on May 11th! Visit them at  . Lastly, we're joined by filmmaker Cam Marshall who is premiering his new feature film "Blackwoods" at the Cincinnati World Cinema on May 11th as well! It's a stacked weekend for Cincinnati residents so go take in some of the excitement this city has to offer - looking forward to seeing you all out there! 

This week, we kick it off with our new friends from Rooted Grounds coffee - we've got some deals on their product in stores, come clean me out of those K-Cups before I drown! Their coffee is awesome and I had a great time with the brains behind Rooted Grounds, Patsy and David. Should we make a blend together in the future? I think so! Then, we meet Annie of Bite This by Annie, who is bringing in a whole new line of products into Jungle Jim's, including her incredible bagel bombs in the natural foods freezers, as well as her delicious brownies and snack mix called Pub Grub! I feel a little pride for this one as I discovered her at a cute Halloween market last fall!  Give her a follow on instagram at @BiteThisByAnnie - all this and more on the Jungle Jim's Podcast!
