    Episode 763: Canned Cocktails

    08/13/2026 | 34 mins.
    Today we get into the fine, the bad and the very bad as we personally eat canned cocktails. Though we wish someone else would have bought these for us and that we were on a boat or at least in the San Jose airport, we shake, stir and sip on the fast track to getting hammered. With a dash of corporate history and a crusade garnish, we discuss Ad Boys and Betty Curtains before praising Producer Abby's life choices.

    Episode 762: Fresh Fava Beans

    08/06/2026 | 38 mins.
    Today we barely scratch the surface of these slippery, elusive, high maintenance fresh beans. Whether they be harbinger, outcome or omen, we tentatively enjoy these young and tender little shits as we avoid urinary marathons and perfect our peeling technique. We learn history, botany and biology before deciding on our bean orientations and then finally reveal our favorite flavor duets.

    Episode 761: Reviled Candy: The Musical

    07/30/2026 | 26 mins.
    Today we present a loose concept and ask: Who likes these things? We take Tootsie to task, start a Rooney convention and refuse to stop bursting into song as we taste nuts, nougat, gummies, mounds and duds. Please, hold your applause and voice memos until the end.

    Episode 760: French Onion Soup

    07/23/2026 | 40 mins.
    Come on over for some soup! We're hanging verbs and gratinating as we serve a spoonful of broth in a lion's head tureen. Predictably, Molly shares her experience tasting this French soup in France and Matthew recounts tales of spicy onions, clingy cheese and pervasive eggs. Finally, we wonder at the ideal broth to onion ratio, the origins of Mario and taste of making out. Presto!

    Episode 759: Dried Oregano

    07/16/2026 | 31 mins.
    It's a showdown on Spice Island: Mexican vs Greek Oregano! Listen as we shill for subscribers, endure Mr Etymology, learn latin, botany and geography and declare ourselves Historical Geniuses. We're rocking up the scenery as we discuss these herbs and the memories they evoke before a Nut Stop at Pound Town and a quick sniffing session.
