This episode of Smartless is sponsored by Google Book. So the other day, I wanted to make invitations for my dog, Ricky's birthday party. And I've got three things open on my laptop, an adorable photo of Ricky, a picture of a birthday cake, and the RSVP details. Thing is, as much as I look like one, I'm not a canine birthday party invitation designer. That's where Google Book comes in. It's a whole new kind of laptop with a feature called Magic Pointer. I just click the photos and different elements on my screen and boom, Magic Pointer designs a customized birthday party invitation for Ricky. Click anything on your screen to create whatever you want. Visit googlebook.com, available to 18+ users, compatibility and availability vary. Let's talk about the Idaho effect. It's a feeling you get hiking the Sawtooth Mountains at sunrise, or mountain biking on Hero Dirt at Silver Mountain Resort, leaving you craving more. It's a feeling where the freedom to roam is real. And it's found in Idaho. Idaho might just be the last authentic place in the West. Once you have this feeling when that stays with you long after returning home, that's the Idaho effect. Plan your Idaho vacation at visitidaho.org. [MUSIC PLAYING] This message is brought to you by Apple Card.

Can we talk about something embarrassing besides the sound of my voice? Imagine you're at lunch. The server brings a Coca-Cola zero sugar while the food is still on the way. You think, just a sip while I wait for my chili dog. So you take that sip, but suddenly, you can't stop drinking that delicious ice cold Coke Zero. The food arrives, and you're just sitting there emotionally unprepared, waiting for a life-saving refill. Real Coca-Cola taste with zero sugar?
