I noticed you spelled it phonetically the way Chester and lots of other people used to pronounce it. It's been about a lifetime since I saw it in print with the real spelling and I don't remember for sure, but I think it was something like asphœtida.
@@tacoheadmakenzie9311 the cereal ads are in episodes that aired before I started listening, so I didn't hear them, but I bet a lot of people thought they were weird back then too. I was used to cereal commercials on shows that targeted us kids not our parents.
An excellent episode. 10/10. 24 Jan 2024
Great show
Of course Chester's happy to get a new horse!! Even the way he came by it!!
Adam-12 demonstrated that even a century later, horse thievery didn't go away.
@02:37….. Chester speaks about asphidity bags! 😳

Those kiddie cereal commercials don't seem to fit in with Gunsmoke.
Hey, it paid the bills.

I'm tipping this programme was extremely popular with young boys.
@@MN-pu6qx Good point. I was in upper gradeschool and then junior high, and I listened faithfully.
The TV commercials for the cereal were very creepy
