    Episode 108: Schnitzel
    Jan 26 2025

    The meat that launched a thousand names; no matter what language you use to refer to a vast expanse of flattened, breaded and fried meat, we can all agree it's a delicious focus for any meal. So, of course, Noah and Louisa take their meat mallets to a few doofuses who can't seem to get it right.

    Episode 107: Cornbread
    Jan 19 2025
    Whether a sweet, brown-topped contrast to rich barbecued meat or a savory round packed with spice and herbs, there's absolutely nothing wrong with cornbread, which is why everyone on the Internet is willing to get into huge arguments about it. Louisa and Noah strike the perfect ground with their correct opinions, and maybe surprise you along the way. Follow us: @NoSubsPlease@mastodon.online on Mastodon. @NoSubsPlease on BlueSky.

    Jan 12 2025
    The arc of the natural universe may be long, but it bends towards crab—and mixed with binders and starches, and your preferred red powders, you can begin your own process of carcinization in the most delicious way. Noah and Louisa go down to Baltimore to take on a United States seafood classic. Follow us: @NoSubsPlease@mastodon.online on Mastodon. @NoSubsPlease on BlueSky.
