  • Episode 677: Punch Like at School Dances
    Dec 19 2024

    Today we revisit memories of school dances past, their soundtracks and dance partners as we wonder what 'spiking' the punch means and tackle pronunciation quandaries. Ice rings, ladles and wrestling lead us to noisy cooking and quiet meals before Matthew turns into a summer boy.

  • Episode 676: Breadsticks
    Dec 12 2024

    Today we're talking all things, but not all things Breadsticks. We tackle these non-nostril shaped bread lumps that are burnished with time and butter as we use this opportunity as a soft launch for 'A Big Time for Cuisine' and 'Not Bad with Matthew Amster-Burton'. Dreams get dashed, thumbs get big and futures are thrown into question as the innuendos fly.

    Dec 5 2024

    Welcome to the show of shows! Today we're bitter and sweet as we whack, tap and unwrap 20 segments of corporate history before milking our feelings. We discover there is a fine line between flailing and success as we encounter grocery stores, cereal mascots, pulpoids and pulp boys before moving in our graves.

  • Episode 673: Gouda
    Nov 21 2024

    Today we wake up from a nap and travel The Gateway to Gouda before diving into the most interesting topic ever before discussed on this show. After one of our classic scoops, we decide to leave podcasting behind to become EXTREMELY old artisan cheese porters just as soon as we find our hats.

    Nov 14 2024

    Gather round all ye who thirst for fruited bubbly water and put your cans together for this effervescent citrus beverage tasting. As we sample this spray of the ocean with a hint of mint straight from the cooler, Matthew transforms into a prepper with an accent before dunking on Dayton while Molly travels back to 1993.

  • Episode 671: Cherry Tomatoes
    Nov 7 2024

    Time passes but our love for Staples and R rated tomatoes will never die. We traverse reverse Memory Lane for some reason as we discuss the explosion of wetness that is the little teeny tiny tomato before Molly recounts a strange encounter and Matthew volunteers for The Secret Skirt Steak Scenario.

  • Episode 670: Black Licorice
    Oct 31 2024

    Today we're just a couple of harmless eccentrics in our dotage as we provide listeners with another classic chewing episode with strong dirt components. Its true that Molly has come a long way, but she still gets weepy as she tries to shirk her professional duty while Matthew decides to get rich or die trying. Toxic and poisonous flavors open up to us before we share some accidental origin stories and our failed attempts at palette expansion.
