(heavy metal music) Hey guys, it is Audrey, with Shannon Purser and we are about to play a little game called what's in the box, with some strange things. (hip hop music) Are you ready for this?
I don't know.
(both laughing) Do you really have a choice at this point?
Apparently not. No.
Okay. So here's how it's gonna go. Um, we have cut out some arm holes in this box. Okay. You are going to, of course, keep your eyes closed, that's part of, that's like the one rule of the game. Okay. And just reach in there and just try to guess. Ya know, what I'm gonna, what's a... What we put in front of you. Okay. Are you ready?
Yeah, let's do it! This is gonna be fun.
Okay, so close your eyes.
Okay, yeah, uh-huh. Oh my God! Aw, it's like. Actually, I know what this is.
What is it?
This is Play-Doh, right?
Yes! Nice job! Yes! Can we show her?
It's just reminding me of like my childhood.
Did you play with Play-Doh? Or were you, like, one of those kids who ate Play-Doh?
I did not eat Play-Doh! No, but I did play with it for sure.
Oh, it's shaking! Oh, that's not comforting. Hold on, Hold on, hold on. I gotta situate it. Okay, put your hands in. Put your hands in.
Okay (squealing) (laughing) (giggling) What is this? Is it supposed to shake?
(both loudly laughing)
My God, is this thing alive? I'm feeling, like, feet, I think. But it's, like, triangle shaped?
Possibly something from your childhood? Um. You gotta be gentle with it, you have to like, pet it.
(bangs) (laughing loudly) (laughing) What the? Is it like a Gremlin or something? I'm so confused!
Keep going, Keep going, keep going!
It's shaped like a triangle and it has feet. And I'm so confused!
(laughing loudly) Can we show you? Let's see, let's see.
Yeah. Okay, here we go! Oh! It's one of those little things! I thought it was a troll but it's, like, a-- It's just a-- It's a, it's a fur ball, with legs.
(offscreen laughing) Yeah, just, ya know. Your average--
It's so cute.
Yeah, just your average fur ball.
I'm a fan. Yeah. Yeah. It's, it's-- You can, like, braid it's hair.
Totally! It's a good time. Right! Yeah. (laughs) (whispers)
(both laughing)
All right, hands in. (rock music)
Oh, no. (both laughting) Oh, no. It's wet! Oh God! (squealing)
Very tasty when you put it in some tea. Maybe, some fro yo.

Yes!
With juice in it?
