Spilled Milk

What is going on? Did we grow up? What is does it mean to "get juiced"? These questions and more remain unanswered as we taste crankberry juice, confront our fear of sourness and risk every kind of ulcer. We get cosmopolitan as we discover the world's worst shower head and scream a few more times than usual.   Episode 1: Fried Eggs   Episode 419: Fried Eggs Revisited   Support Spilled Milk Podcast...

We get off to a rocky start as we treat a fever and wish listeners a Happy American Thanksgiving!

Today we're keeping it real and wondering why are we doing this topic. After excessive hypotheticals, cake stands and keg stands, we (of course) bring up Singles (yet again) and flip the lid and squirt.

It is finally Mr. Etymology's time to shine as we crunch through our conversation on these Japanese rice crackers.

This whole episode is a segment and gets quite philosophical. Celebrate us (but don't look at us!) as we describe how we eat on birthdays and holidays.

Cheers to the 3 martini lunch! Listen as we (barely) sip cold ones, talk Twilight and google stuff.

We begin with pregnant pauses and delicious babies before moving on to geans and slot machines.

Today we taste the flavor of nostalgia and Matthew doesn't get it. We reject the Cold Case and take a long, meandering path towards Memory Lane as we pay penance to our Chocolate Overlord.
