    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.

    Episode 758: Buffalo Sauce

    07/09/2026 | 33 mins.
    Get back to earth because we're talking Buffalo Sauce! We're South of North Madre as we learn the brainy and accidental origin stories of this specialized sauce for unbreaded, fried and rubbed chicken. We're visited by George Clooney and Simon and Garfunkel as we talk Mumbo sauce, genius combinations and exploding mayo. Note that Molly is recovering and Matthew failed to thread the needle so give us a break but also call in your criticism.

    Episode 757: Grocery Shopping with Alex Mayyasi

    07/02/2026 | 52 mins.
    We leave dreams behind and enter reality today as we tackle Grocery Shopping. With help from Special Guest Alex Mayyasi we chat price comparison, admin nights, coupon clipping and competitive friendship. After proposing illegal schemes and learning the difference between Joan Rivers and Barbara Walters, we open our digital mouths and try to understand the psyche of the store with its loyalty programs, discounts and impulse buys before some truly disturbing Spilled Mail leaves us with spurting centers and orange scabs.

    Episode 756: Easter Candy

    06/25/2026 | 46 mins.
    Well it is definitively Spring, except when its not, so that means we're hyped up slugs fresh off the factory line to taste creme, peeps and 'chocolate'. After some salivation activation we cheese plate candy and declare them to be "Remarkable!" and "Violently Sweet!" before breaking some bunnies. After a very short appearance by Dr Peeper we treat our itchy cheeks the only way we know how.
