A Sandwich is a House That Needs Proper Constuction (w/Theodore Pynchon) Sep 27, 2023

Show notes

With Lindsey out on vacation trying to find her true self, Kirk has his son Theodore on the show to talk about sandwiches. Theo, who's spent the last year and a half making sandwiches as a part-time job, is a sandwich expert (he calls himself a "sandwich wizard"...um...okay), who gives us the fine art of creating the perfect sandwich in terms of bread, meats, toppings, and condiments. Then Theo uses all of his "wizardry" to create the ideal sandwich for his dad. Will he fail and disappoint Kirk as he has done most of his life?

Granola and the Chew-Chunk Theory Sep 20, 2023

Show notes

Granola is for more than just hippies. It's for people like Kirk and Lindsey, people who can appreciate granola for what it is...a food that is kinda good for you but not really. So the two talk best/worst flavors, crumbly vs. chunky, what dried fruits belong or don't belong, the importance of the chew-chunk theory, and wtf is savory granola.

Drinking the Kool-Aid That Is Whole Foods Sep 13, 2023

Show notes

Whole Foods can seem like an annoying lifestyle...but it's an annoying lifestyle that Kirk and Lindsey are here for! So much so that the two devote an entire episode to it, filled with why they go there, what they get, what they don't get, the love/hate relationship they have with the fact that Amazon owns it, and then the two separately do their own Whole Foods visit, resulting in with one of the biggest surprises in the show's history.

There Is No Cool Way To Eat Jerky Sep 06, 2023

Show notes

Is there a better snack than jerky? Kirk and Lindsey think not, and that's why they are celebrating all things jerked in this episode. They talk types (how come there's no chicken jerky?), flavors (Dr. Pepper Jalapeño is just sooooo stupid), and they marvel at the fact that certain squirrels actually make their own jerky!

When Does a Baked Potato Suddenly Become a LOADED Baked Potato? Aug 30, 2023

Show notes

It may seem like a philosophical question, but there is indeed an actual answer to when just a baked potato transforms into a loaded baked potato. And Kirk and Lindsey have that answer! (You're welcome.) They also have the answers to which type of loaded baked potato is the best, as well as a bizarre tale of why Kirk as a teenager once went to prom in Muncie, Indiana with a girl he met in Paris, France. (And yes, that story does have a baked potato theme.)

"Where Does Scotch Whiskey Come From?" Aug 23, 2023

Show notes

Kirk invites Lindsey and Kelly over for some whiskey tasting, some charcuterie board eating, some surprise rib consuming, and of course, a lot of dumb questions about whiskey and whiskey drinking.

Why is Everyone Trying to Make Yogurt NOT Taste Like Yogurt? Aug 16, 2023

Show notes

Kirk and Lindsey like to dabble in the yogurt world, but for the life of them, they can't figure out why yogurt can't just be yogurt. (MAPLE BACON DONUT IS NOT A FLAVOR OF YOGURT THAT SHOULD EVER EXIST.) So the two dive into all the bs flavors that are out there, as well as talk about best/worst add-ins, the nostalgia of certain yogurt brands, why fro yo is just dumb, and why certain bros are so intimidated by eating yogurt that they have to call it, "brogurt."

Pretzels are a Desperation Food Aug 09, 2023

Show notes

Seriously, does anyone really care about pretzels? Kirk and Lindsey aren't just being s**tty (well, no more than usual). They seriously want to know. Cause when it comes to pretzels, the two of them give it one big, collective shrug. It's not that they hate them. It's just that they're...well...pretzels.
