The energy bros deep dive into the original energy drink, Red Bull with special guest Tian, who has never drank a red bull or energy drink. They discuss the redbull car, campus reps and other unique marketing tactics. They also discuss class action lawsuits (Red bull DOES NOT give you wiinggsss) and Red Bull's disappointing attitude toward flavors and discrimination against "Chemical guys" seeking diet/sugar-free varieties beyond Pear, with a solution that makes little sense and is probably illegal. As much shade as is thrown in this episode, they give credit to redbull as the OG, bringing energy drinks and taurine to the masses and having a great marketing strategy despite terrible innovation.
