Dinner at Your Place?

Dinner at Your Place brings The South Shore Boyz some bar style pizzas for what basically is a sleepover where everyone stays up too late and has the giggles. Someone's mom is accused of making bad pizza, a seltzer is chugged so fast it almost becomes a regurgitated guest, and we get an argument for flushing food down the toilet. Support: The South Shore Boyz, along with a podcast, have a weekly s...

Musician and Podcast Host/Producer Chuck Staton comes by and asks Danny to make Chicken Marsala and Twice Baked Potatoes. Chuck starts with the punk band Mohawk days, an unfortunate scalp sunburn, and how even as adults that know better the idea of "you gotta get a sunburn first before you can tan" is a concept people still follow. We then move into Chuck's love for regional chains. The idea of ma...

Comedian Caroline Moore comes by and asks Danny to make Ooey Gooey Butter Bars. We begin with what even is an Ooey Gooey Butter Bar, and quickly move to Caroline's dad finding a passion for bull riding. Caroline would be packed up in the family car for a drive to Kansas from Massachusetts to watch her dad compete in a bull riding event at the state fair, while Caroline herself would compete in a s...

We hear about Tanner's successes, how the kids taught him about things like leadership and acceptance, and tha...

Graphic Designer Sam Wolfson is called in for this week's episode. Sam did the logo for the podcast, so with the weekly standup show starting July 11th it made sense to go back to him for a poster. The two talk a few ideas and get a rough draft down for a flyer, but only for about 8 minutes way later in the episode. Sam is a V8 engine of personality, and it's a treat to watch him go. He tells us a...

Corey also touches on how you can take the first steps to stan...

If you're a host about to bring me up having a panic attack because you forgot how to say my last name then listen to the first ~45 seconds of this episode. You're doing a great job hosting too. Did I mention I like your shoes? And you can absolutely still ask me. It's all good. After that it's a regular Midnight Snack. It's hard to buy groceries when your accounts are frozen, so an episode will b...

Comedian Kelly MacFarland comes by and asks Danny to make a Grilled Cheese and a Tomato Soup. The two start with a cheese pull, Kelly telling us she graduated with 79 kids in the class of her Maine high school, and how going to college in Portland felt like a move to "The Big City."

When multiple cancellations happen, sometimes you have to call in your knight in shining armor to save the day.

Past guest (and my mom) Susan Cascone dials in this week as the guest so her son can give an update on the state of his health. Why not turn it into content?

Susan also gives advice on becoming more comfortable with a certain type of doctor, and the two contemplate something Danny heard about "...

Friend and former teacher Emily Blodgett comes by and asks Danny to make Vanilla Cupcakes with Vanilla Frosting. It gets addressed how that's not really dinner and that Emily was just craving cake.

Emil...

Comedian Dan Boulger comes by and asks Danny to make a Keto friendly Chicken Tikka Masala. A bounce around episode starts with Dan talking about the cooking show he used to have and a culinary creation that, even if it was a recipe he made on his own, it was maybe only good enough to try the one time.

Comedian and Mysterious Figure Will Smalley comes by and asks Danny to make a Grilled Cheese and Strawberry Fribble. We're going back to Friendly's.

The two then shift and d...

Audio issues and off the table topics getting in the way of a typical episode, past guest and my big sister is visiting.

A solo recording that wasn't supposed to be solo but wow did I not want to talk to that person any more than I already had. And there was more. This is what I decided to fit.

Comedian Myq Kaplan comes by and asks Danny to make a Thai Noodle Bowl with Peanut Sauce. Myq became a vegetarian in college and wasn't going to revert back to a childhood meal of pizza or hot dogs. He talks about the decision to go vegetarian, how it actually expanded his palate, and poses a question that will make you rethink asking a vegetarian "do you ever want to break edge?" That however com...

Head Chef of Gray's Hall returns and asks Danny to make Pork Tenderloin with Broccoli Mac and Cheese. Gabe grew up a fan of Kraft and had some harsh words off mic about Annie's White Cheddar Mac and Cheese so that's where the episode begins.

Recovered from Friday's IPA / Steak and Cheese tummy ache, Comedian of the Year nominee Will Noonan is back in the chair and asks Danny to make Biscuits with Bacon (which some liberties were taken on.)

The two meander about old bay seasoning coming into their life o...
