Speaker 1: you've seen my list a Star Wars star now it is.

7
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: And I was telling you I bought a bunch of

8
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: Star Wars magazines. Yeah, because it's the anniversary and I

9
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,440

13
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: even like a paper copy of a comic book. I can't.

14
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: I'm not. It's been a couple of years. Yeah. Yeah,

15
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: Well it was kind of embarrassing because I've bought four.

16
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: Uh And I was wearing a Star Wars shirt and

17
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: a Star Wars mask when I checked out, and I

18
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: was kind of like, this is who I am. Yeah, yeah,

19
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: that's okay, just to just own it, you know, that's fine. Yeah, yes,

20
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: thank you. I am very excited, also very excited about these.

21
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: As always, I did want to say, recently, I went

22
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: to clean out my desk because yes, as we've mentioned,

23
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: we are moving moving offices. Yeah, yes we are. And

24
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: I found so much physical listener mail that I've kept

25
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: from the early days of stuff warmed my heart. I

26
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: had the very first one we ever received, um, and

27
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 1: this one came with champagne bottle candles. Oh yeah, yeah,

28
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: I've got one of those on my desk right now. Yes, yes,

29
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: we do keep them, like I had all of them,

30
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 1: and it was just such a delight to look back

31
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: and remember, like, oh yeah, the early days when we

32
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: didn't know if anybody was gonna like this show and

33
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: we got these messages. It was a beautiful Yeah yeah,

34
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: I um right, yeah, I'm in the process. How I'm

Speaker 1: in the I have a lot of books at the office.

36
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,239
Speaker 1: I've been using the office kind of his like auxiliary

37
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: bookshelf space. Yeah. Um, and I'm like, oh no, so

00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: in a milk crate some way in my office, but

44
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: in my home office, but like within my line of sight. Currently,

45
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 1: I have three objects that y'all have sent us over

46
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: the years. Um, and there's others like lurking around around

47
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:20,399
Speaker 1: behind me somewhere. But yeah, yeah, yeah, we keep them.

48
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: We're very I'm very sentimental, at least extremely sentimental. Again,

49
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: physical gifts are in no way expected, not necessary. No,

50
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: we love the electronic messages as well, all of them. Yes,

51
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: which we have a lot to go through. Okay, alright, okay, yes,

52
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: and we're starting with some messages about spoons. So many

53
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: spoon messages, so many spoon messages, and I lament that

54
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: we because all these spoon messages I think came with photos. Um,

55
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: so unfortunately you can't see them, but I guarantee they

56
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: are amazing. Yeah, oh goodness, y'all. If you ever send

57
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: us an image, if it's if it's okay for us

58
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 1: to like post it on social like Instagram or Twitter, maybe, um,

59
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: I don't. I think we're locked out of our Facebook

60
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: right now, so sorry if you've been trying to reach

61
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 1: us over there, um, but but yeah, yeah, if if you.

62
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: If you send us a photo and it's okay for

63
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: us to share it with everyone on social media, then

64
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: let us know. And if it's not, that's super okay,

65
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: like totally yeah. But anyway, these spoons, Oh, some spectacular spoons,

66
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: so Victoria wrote. At some point in late twenty nineteen,

67
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: my dad handed my mom a box of metal things

68
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,160
Speaker 1: and said it was some stuff he wanted to get

69
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: rid of, be it sold, donated, thrown away, or turned

70
00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: into found metal sculpture, which my mom does. I visit

71
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,799
Speaker 1: her soon after when she was polishing off a silver

72
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: cup when she noticed words on the side and took

73
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: a closer look and exasperatedly, exasperatedly exclaimed that it's my

74
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: great grandfather's baby cup and had his full name and

75
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 1: date of birth on it. I looked into the box

76
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: and pulled out another cup and found my dad's name

77
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 1: and birthday engraved into the side. My mom said, I

78
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 1: may be divorced from your father, but I can't get

79
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: rid of these. They divorced and amicable terms, so she

80
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: has the cups hang off of the wall in her kitchen.

81
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: I've included a picture of my dad's cup also in

82
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: the pile was his baby fork with his first name

83
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: engraved and a reference picture to its size compared to

84
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 1: a normal sized fork. Plus, I just like to guess

85
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: about the fork. It's my favorite fork because the design

86
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: is so very extra, with a man in full tutor outfit,

87
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: sword hanging from his side, caring a cooked turkey, and

88
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: ivy vines swirl below and up the left side of

89
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: the image. The backside has someone's initials which you mentioned

90
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 1: in the spoon episode, and even more details of a

91
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: small plate holding two loaves of bread and presumably a

92
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: bottle of alcohol surrounded by teeny tiny ivy below the initials.

93
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: And yes, all three of the things I've shared with

94
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: you are sterling silver. I love it. Victoria later followed

95
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: up with recently I shared what remains of my dad's

96
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: baby silverware and my favorite fork. Now I offer you

97
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: pictures of various silver spoons, table spoons, serving spoons, and

98
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: other spoons and their degrees of fanciness. None of these

99
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: are my favorite spoon, though. That goes to what I

100
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 1: called the fairy spoon, which was the length of an

101
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: adult pinky finger, with a perfectly circular bowl the width

102
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 1: of a large pa and flowers adorning the hand and

103
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: was lost when I was ten. I do have a similar,

104
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 1: regular sized spoon, but there's something about really small versions

105
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: of things that people generally gravitate towards. I'm just not

106
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: realizing that I have the means to recreate this spoon.

107
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: I'm a jeweler with access to wax carving and metal casting.

108
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: I'm getting excited about having my fairy spoon again. Yes,

109
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: oh that's so cool. I know, right, Okay, like a,

110
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: it's really cool that your mother does like reclaimed metal working.

111
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: Um be, it's so I'm like really obsessed with um

112
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: lost wax casting, I have. I have a few friends

113
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: in the jewelry sphere and um and it's just it's

114
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: so I mean to forge, like forgive the pen, but

115
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: like so metal. I'm like it's sock and cool. Um hey,

116
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: and I love the you that you can recreate this.

117
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: I all these spoon images, which is such a phrase

118
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: to say, I have adored and I know it brought

119
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: me back reading these of like things that really important

120
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: to me when I was young. And I think I've

121
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: mentioned before I had a a fairy house when I

122
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: was Yeah, we're right, yeah, And I would like tend

123
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: to it and try to make it more palatable and

124
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: habitable for fairy, right, you want your fairy population to thrive. Yes,

125
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: And I just remember it being such a fun activity

126
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: for me and such something that was so lovely that

127
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: I got to believe in and participate in. And like,

128
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 1: I can imagine if I had a spoon, a fairy spoon,

129
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: how import that would have been to me. And so

130
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: I'm just in love with the idea that you can

131
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: recreate it. I'm very very happy that that is a

132
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: thing that can happen. And I hope that you sent

133
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: those pictures and updates. Yes, oh please do mm hmmm.

134
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: Another spoon message, Ryan wrote, I've been listening to you

135
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: wonderful people long enough that I've heard the original and

136
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: rerun episodes of food Stuff, but I finally have a

137
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: reason to email. I have been a spoon collector for

138
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: most of my life. I'm thirty five, and this is

139
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: my secret shame. I get a lot of heckling when

140
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: I mentioned my spoon. No. I started collecting when I

141
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: purchased a souvenir spoon from Disneyland picture included. I never

142
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: intended it to become the collection it is to day,

143
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: but it was helped along with contributions from family member

144
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: ers who went to some awesome places, and by my

145
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: parents seeking out spoons and gift shops and truck shops

146
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: for me while on vacations or while moving. Although the

147
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: growth of my collection has slowed, I still do get

148
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 1: them when I'm somewhere meaningful. My experience with collecting spoons

149
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: has also led me to noticing them in pop culture,

150
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: like the Droopers collection from mad Men, which was initially

151
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: displayed upside down but fixed in later episodes. I unfortunately

152
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: do not have my shame I mean collection displayed at

153
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: the moment, mostly because display cases for spoons don't fit

154
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: the aesthetics of my house. By the way, while people

155
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: do tend to laugh when I tell them I have

156
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 1: a spoon collection, I am not at all ashamed of it.

157
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: It's a fun way to remember trips. Yeah, yeah, right, yes, yes,

158
00:10:55,120 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: And I love this. I love I feel like I agree,

159
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: your spoon collection is a great way to remember trips.

160
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: And also, okay, literally today, this is not a joke.

161
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: I received a R two D two plush toy, a

162
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: Star Wars place Matt, a Star Wars lipstick. Okay, I

163
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: believe I got oh, I got some Star Wars cups

164
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 1: and plates from different people. So when you have a passion,

165
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: sometimes people just give you stuff and it's wonderful. Um,

166
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: it does feel strange because sometimes people come over and

167
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: you're like, yes, I have all this stuff. I didn't

168
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 1: buy it. Um, But I'm not mad about it. I'm

169
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: also very happy about it. But it wound up here

170
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 1: and it lives with me now and I can never

171
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 1: give it away because it means something that someone thought

172
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: of me and it's gonna do me. Yeah, exactly, very

173
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,559
Speaker 1: happy about it. I'm not mad. But it was kind

174
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: of like I opened my mailbox to day. I was like,

175
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: oh wow, okay, yeah, but you know, it sounds like

176
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 1: you've got a similar thing going for you with spoons. Yeah, yeah,

177
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: yeah I have. Oh gosh, I'm like, what do I have?

178
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: It's similar like that? I guess, like maybe like like cephalopods,

179
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: Like I've had a number of cephalopod related gifts come

180
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: my way. Oh yeah, wow, We're gonna have to talk

181
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: about this more later. I like a cephalopod what they're nice,

182
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,319
Speaker 1: they are, I agree, but I'm just curious. I just

183
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: want more informage oh well, yes, that is for later.

184
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: For now, Albert wrote, you have a spoon episode and

185
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: you didn't mention the spark l O L. I'm also

186
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: surprised with Annie's Far East experiences. You didn't mention the

187
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: Chinese spoon. Um. I think here in the western countries

188
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: it's most noticeable in Chinese restaurants, but also in Roman restaurants.

189
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: But that might have doubled the episode length since it

190
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: has its own history and culture. Um. So I was

191
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: listening to the Dates episode and when I realized Annie

192
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: had never seen Raiders of the Lost Arc, I actually

193
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: said out loud, what how is this possible? I saw

194
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,199
Speaker 1: Raiders in theaters as a teenager. Yes, I'm old. But

195
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: the event I remember the most was when there was

196
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: a showing on campus in college. Everyone yelled out bad

197
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: Dates during the scene that Lauren mentioned. So, Annie, you

198
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: went on a tangent talking about um taking inspiration from

199
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: Final Fantasy for your D and D game. I've got

200
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 1: to ask, do you have monster stats for chocobos. I'm

201
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: looking for one to use in my campaign. Okay, so

202
00:13:55,360 --> 00:14:01,599
Speaker 1: a couple of things. Yes, the would look at the

203
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: I should call Chinese spoon. That would have been a

204
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: whole other thing. Yeah, and we should return to it. Also,

205
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: we have done an episode on the Sport and it

206
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: includes one of my favorite melancholy poems. Oh yeah, very

207
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: serious poetry has been written about the Sport, as it

208
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: turns out. Oh indeed, Oh indeed. I have seen Raiders

209
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: of the Lost Ark, but I was probably I was

210
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: very young, and I have not seen it since. Oh yeah,

211
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: but I have seen it and I've read about it. Heck,

212
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: that's a movie I've seen countless times, I'd say, like

213
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: definitely over twenty over the course of my life. Like

214
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: it was one of the ones I watched like over

215
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: and over again when I was a kid. There is

216
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: a great story about Marcia Lucas uh kind of rewriting

217
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: the ending of that maybe if you want to look

218
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: it up. Yes, as far as chocobos go. In final

219
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: Bassie and D and D. I okay, So I wrote

220
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: Albert back, and I told Albert. One of the funniest

221
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: things to me through this campaign has been there's kind

222
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: of like eight places the players have to go, and

223
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: through everyone there's sort of a creature that they can

224
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: name and then ride to the next place. This has

225
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: been like the heart of the campaign, like hours spent

226
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: naming the creature, talking to the creature. Yeah, I'm pretty

227
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: sure that originally, Annie, you intended for this to be

228
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: just kind of like a cute like like oh yeah,

229
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: like and now you have to go from one place

230
00:15:55,880 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: to the next. So here's your ride, here's your can left,

231
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: like get in, let's go. And we being exactly the

232
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: type of campaign that we are, We're like, okay, we

233
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: need detailed information about each animal. We all we need

234
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: to have discussions both with the animals and amongst ourselves.

235
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: Uh can I can I roll for perception if any

236
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: of these animals like has like like a certain tendency. Yes,

237
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: and some grudges have been built. Yeah. I was not

238
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: anticipating this, and perhaps I should have. Um, I love it.

239
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: Please don't take this as a critique, Lauren, but I

240
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: have to admit I was like, oh yep, I feel

241
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: like that, and like the cremato like probably took you

242
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: really by surprise. Yeah, the cremato definitely did. There was

243
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: a surprise CreI okay scene that like almost brought tears

244
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: from my eyes. It was very sweet. But we have

245
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 1: not done choco bows yet. Oh yet. Oh okay, alright,

246
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: choke out like two or three places to go, alright,

247
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: chocobles to look forward to. I love this. Oh yes,

248
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: that's gonna be great. But they're not going to be enemies.

249
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 1: So I didn't write out stats, which perhaps I should.

250
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 1: Maybe I will, Maybe I will, and I'll get back

251
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 1: to you. Oh goodness. I don't like. I don't like

252
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 1: the idea of us like doing something wrong and having

253
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: to fight Chocobo. I mean, of course, no evil laugh intended.

254
00:17:53,040 --> 00:18:02,120
Speaker 1: Um okay uh Klee wrote, I am a longtime fan

255
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: and have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to finally

256
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: write y'all. While listening to your episode on Spoons, an

257
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: old adolescent memory was unlocked for reference. I am turning

258
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: thirty this year, and I'm already having an existential crisis.

259
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: I remembered being in high school and just discovering YouTube.

260
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 1: Someone had recommended I watch Salad Fingers, and after doing so,

261
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: I became deeply disturbed over the title characters obsession with

262
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: Rusty Spoons. After remembering this strange series, I revisited it

263
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: after your episode, and yet still very disturbing, albeit intriguing.

264
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: So I thank you for unlocking that weird memory and

265
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: for teaching me about all sorts of cool food related things. Yes, okay,

266
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: so I am so happy you wrote this because when

267
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: we were doing that episode, I kept thinking of salad

268
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: finger and I was like, why she's she or they?

269
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: Uh no spoons involved, right, And then when you sent

270
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: in this email, I was like, oh, yes, I remember,

271
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: but I kept thinking of it. Oh oh yeah, I Um,

272
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 1: I was not thinking of it. I had, I guess,

273
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 1: blissfully locked my salad fingers memories away in some distant

274
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 1: corner of my brain with like a warning do not

275
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: touch dead inside, kind of like like notice on the memory.

276
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, thank you for bringing it. No, I mean

277
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: seriously thank you, like oh man, and if any of

278
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: y'all have not witnessed, if you were not of an

279
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 1: internet age to have witnessed salad fingers um. I actually

280
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: didn't see it until gosh, maybe about five years ago,

281
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: which was quite late, um, because this was during the

282
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: age of like of like flash um animation being like

283
00:19:55,359 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: the primary form of entertainment on the Internet. Uh yeah,

284
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: my my roommate, uh, my roommates Jen and Andrew showed

285
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 1: that one to me, and I think I just it

286
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: was just a whole day of like us getting through

287
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 1: like one like five minute episode and me sitting back

288
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 1: and going, oh, oh no, yeah it's yeah. I was

289
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 1: in college when I watched them, and I was like,

290
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: I'm unsettled. I'm unsettled. Yeah, so I mean recommendation. I

291
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:41,919
Speaker 1: guess if you want to be unsettled, check them out.

292
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: High quality entertainment for sure. Uh well, we do have

293
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,360
Speaker 1: more mail from listeners for you. Um, but first we're

294
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: going to take a quick break for word from our sponsors.

295
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 1: Mm hm, and we're back. Thank you, sponsor, Yes, thank you.

297
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 1: Hannah wrote, I had to write to you while listening

298
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: to the Manchego episode because of a very special memory

299
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: from my wedding. I grew up in a family of

300
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 1: old hippiece, several of whom once grandparents, parents and uncle

301
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: now other uncle and aunt. Parents and uncle live on

302
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: adjoining properties on a big hill out in the northern

303
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: Michigan forest. It's a gorgeous spot and it's where we

304
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: got married. I am also lucky to be related to

305
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 1: and know many generous and talented people who donated their

306
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: time and skills to help make our wedding beautiful and special,

307
00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: arranging flowers, decorating tables, baking cake, and been building and

308
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 1: setting up a little stage with a carved archway. As

309
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: you can imagine, the day before the wedding, we were

310
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: all running around like chickens without heads, trying to do

311
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: everything all at once, and so all of us forgot

312
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: about lunch. One aunt and uncle disappeared for a while

313
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 1: down to the house where they were staying another uncle's,

314
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: and when they reappeared, they were laden with platters of simple,

315
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 1: open faced sandwiches, a slice of whole grain bread, a

316
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 1: smear of mayo, a slice of minchego, and a big

317
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: slice of homegrown tomato with salt and pepper. By that time,

318
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: we were all starving and fell on the platters like wolves.

319
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 1: That sandwich is still one of the most delicious things

320
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 1: I've ever tasted. Nothing like exhaustion and excitement to wet

321
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: your appetite. Now I make them all the time when

322
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,959
Speaker 1: our tomatoes are ripening, and they taste like family ps.

323
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: Of course, my aunt and uncle were using whatever they

324
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,959
Speaker 1: found in my other uncle's fridge and garden, which at

325
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 1: the time included an entire wheel of manchego. When my

326
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: uncle finds something he likes, he commits. That sounds lovely.

327
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 1: I totally agree, Like when you're hungry and tired and

328
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 1: just those like fresh ingredients, is the best thing you've

329
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: ever eaten. So yeah, yeah, and there is. There's like nothing.

330
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: There are very few things in this world better than

331
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 1: a tomato that you have just picked from a garden. Yes,

332
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: it is so nice. Absolutely agree, Absolutely agree. And Hannah

333
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: sent in pictures of the wedding and it looked beautiful

334
00:23:52,520 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: and lovely and congratulations. M I'm like, oh, y'all, tell

335
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: us about all of your nice events, like really lives yes,

336
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: and she's all the way, especially nice events that include cheese.

337
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 1: Oh absolutely um. My cousin Elizabeth wrote, you've persuaded me

338
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: to have another try at Molee. I've grave concerns about

339
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: sweets and savories. My mother has interesting ideas about allowable

340
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,159
Speaker 1: combinations of ingredients. Maybe I've only had a low quality

341
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: version before at Inauthentic restaurants, and that's why I haven't

342
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: enjoyed it before. Regarding Black Current, it's just better than

343
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff we can get here. Black Current,

344
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: Baby medicine. Better, water with Robina, That's not how you

345
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: say that. Water with Robina better, Ginger beer spiked with

346
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: Robina and gin way better. I love and miss it

347
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: so much. Black Current and licorice sweets are on the

348
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: old Amazon wish list. Also pictured Rue barb and Custard sweets,

349
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: prawn cocktail crisps, and mince pies from Fortnum and Mason's,

350
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 1: and like ten books and a mortaring pestel. Uh it's

351
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: called diversity people. I've been married into Lauren's lovable weirdo

352
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: clan for nearly five years. Five years, Lauren time for

353
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: a visit, and I've yet to have moxie. I'm scared

354
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: to say it all out as they may find out.

355
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: And don't get them started on werners. That's part of

356
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: the religion too. Also, I first had manchego on a

357
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: holiday in Majorca. We got it fresh from a grocer

358
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: in the equivalent of a strip mall. We dragged it

359
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,160
Speaker 1: and several more ingredients back to the best Airbnb I've

360
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 1: ever had. We put it on everything and my eyes

361
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: were opened. Ah that sounds lovely. It really does. Oh,

362
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: it really does. Also um uh Rue Barbon custard is

363
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: one of those things that yes, I'm like, why don't

364
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: we have that here? A so good? I yeah, agreed.

365
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 1: One of my most requested pies that I make as

366
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: a rubarb pie, and it's just not something that I

367
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: would have made if we hadn't done that episode. Yeah,

368
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: I love rub barb. As I've said before, it's just

369
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: one of my absolute favorite things. Thanks to Grandma Lou

370
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: actually who um uh your your your grandma and mine,

371
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: um Elizabeth who who used to grow ruebarb in her garden.

372
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: So yeah. Yeah. Also, I'm very curious about those burners.

373
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: Oh um, that's a brand of ginger Ale. I believe

374
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: ginger Ale ginger Beer. Am I thinking of the right thing?

375
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: I believe, I am um as opposed to other brands

376
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:55,120
Speaker 1: of ginger Ale, ginger Beer, etcetera, which are different. Oh

377
00:26:55,320 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: I see, I love it. I love it. It can

378
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: get very intense. Okay, all right, well we won't tell

379
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,160
Speaker 1: anybody about your Moxie secret, but if they listen to this,

380
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,719
Speaker 1: then you're in trouble. Yeah, but other other than you

381
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: and the you know, couple hundred thousand people listening to

382
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: this episode, your secrets safe with us. Um, Chad wrote us.

383
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: He wrote us a few messages. The first one UM

384
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 1: I had an interesting food experience to day and wanted

385
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: to share. I visited Mochi Nuts. The website says mochi

386
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 1: donut is the titillating product of the happy union between

387
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: Japanese rice cake chi and American style donuts, which originated

388
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,400
Speaker 1: in Hawaii. Each mochi nut is like a donut made

389
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 1: of eight donut holes forming a circle, but with a

390
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: slightly chewy texture like donut tapioca. They were good. They

391
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 1: also have rice hot are a sausage or half a

392
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: piece of sausage plus a large chunk of cheese coated

393
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 1: into bat or presumably made with rice flour, and you

394
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: can get corn flakes or ram noodles on top of that.

395
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: Not bad. Some people may not like these rice hot

396
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: dogs because of how unusual they are, but I like

397
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: rooting for the under dog. I just wanted to put

398
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: it in here before we continue. I believe our new

399
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: office space which we are eventually going to move into,

400
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: um has I don't know that it's a Mochi nut,

401
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: but they have a place that sells mochy donuts which

402
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: has been popping up I have a friend who she's

403
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: like my TikTok friend sends me the TikTok because I'm

404
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 1: not on TikTok, and she sent me one about this

405
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 1: place in our new office space we're moving too, so

406
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: that's exciting. I'm happy to try it. I'm excited to

407
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: try it. Oh yeah, yeah, because I I love a

408
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: moochi um right. I've been seeing photos of these pop

409
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: up on you like Instagram and what I and they

410
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: look so good. They do indeed anything kind of chewy

411
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: like that. I'm just a m hm m m m um.

412
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: Chad went on, I appreciated your episode on dates because

413
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: I eat them frequently. I make two batches and run

414
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: each through the food processor. In each batch, I use

415
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: half of a twelve ounced carton pitted dates, one and

416
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: a half cups of walnuts, one cup unsweetened coconut flakes,

417
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: third cup cocoa powder, a splash of vanilla, a dash

418
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: of cinnamon, and perhaps cement extract or orange extract. Then

419
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: I formed the results into bite sized balls and put

420
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: them in the freezer. It's a snack that's less unhealthy

421
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: than candy, but makes me feel like I'm indulging myself. Now,

422
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: I just need to remember to eat a vegetable. Ps.

423
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: I am morally obligated to share this terrible date joke

424
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: with you. And so it's it's it's sort of it's

425
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: it's an image, but I'm going to describe what's going on. Okay.

426
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: So this is like a like a like an instruction

427
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: manual kind of thing, you know, like um, you know,

428
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: like like like like sort of like like akia ish okay,

429
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: so um. And then the title of this instruction is

430
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: how to get a hot date. Step one, get date,

431
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: and it's a picture, not a little wrinkly date. Step two,

432
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 1: heat it up. It's a picture of a microwave with

433
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: the date inside of it. Step three, hot date. You

434
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: got me? I laughed, and I and I think I grown.

435
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 1: That's about That's that's where we are, though, Laura. And

Speaker 1: that's that's where we live. Yeah, I own property there.

437
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 1: If we were like on a monopoly board, bad pun

438
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 1: would be our whole stretch. Yeah, goodness, it would be.

439
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: Also that eight recipe sounds delicious, Oh it does. Yeah,

00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: I've never really done I've never really done anything with

441
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: dates other than like maybe maybe i've like when I

442
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: was feeling fancy put cheese in them. Mostly I just

443
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 1: eat them. Um, yeah, no, I'll have to. I'll have

444

00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: I just keep the handle cover on all times, including

458
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: washing and in the oven. My pan went from being

459
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: used rarely to living on my stove at all times.

460
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 1: If that's cool, I send these to you. I'd love

461
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: your mailing address when available. Requests of Skinny are wide

462
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: handle covers and some color preferences pictured here is mine

463
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: in the wide handled version. I'd be happy to send

464
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: as many as we'll fit in litter mail. This looks

465
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: so cool, listeners. Okay, so it's like a crochet handle

466
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: on cast iron handle, like it's amazing. I am shocked

467
00:32:55,280 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: it won't burst into flames, but apparently it doesn't. Yeah,

468
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 1: and I also adore that you have a crocheted person.

469
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: Me too. That is excellent. That is I want to

470
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: see this movie where you're like, I've got a crochepe person.

471
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 1: You're like quickly to my crochepe person emergency. Uh yeah.

472
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: And also I'm happy that they're on vacation right now.

473
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: Good for them, yes, yes, good for them. Their work

474
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: looks amazing. And also we always appreciate you listeners thinking

475
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 1: of us and these Oh yeah, because that is. I

476
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: do like if I'm going to injure myself in the kitchen,

477
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: I'm definitely going to burn. My dad taught me really good,

478
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 1: like like knife safety. Um, I'm I'm pretty good at

479
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: not having a knife mistake, but I oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah,

480
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: burns are a problem, it agreed. And also these little

481
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: crochet handles are very cute. Um yeah, so protection from

482
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: burns also cute, great. You know you know I love it.

483
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: Ben wrote, I loved your recent episode on cast Iron,

484
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 1: found it fascinating as always. However, it left me with

485
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: a burning question. I don't know if that was going on.

486
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 1: I have a cast iron frying pan myself that I

487
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: got for this past Christmas and want to look after

488
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: it properly. I've recently had to replace my gas hob

489
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: with an electric induction hob, a hundred year old house

490
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 1: with renovations during the Celtic Tiger. Don't even get me started. Thankfully,

491
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 1: the cast iron still works with induction. However, it seems

492
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: to heat up differently. For example, if I put butter

493
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 1: into the pan and then switch it on, the butter

494
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: starts to melt almost immediately. It's thrown off my cooking times,

495
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: and I was wondering if you came across any advice

496
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: during your research regarding different heating methods for cast iron.

497
00:34:57,960 --> 00:34:59,720
Speaker 1: I hope your next field trip is in the works.

498
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: I up the Asheville and Hawaii series and can't wait

499
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: to hear the next one. If you ever make it

500
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 1: to Ireland, we will have some great suggestions for you.

501
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: M oh I have never been to Ireland. And I

502
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: really want to go. Um. Also, I had to stop

503
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: and look up what the heck Celtic tiger is in

504
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 1: reference to Uh, there's like a whole like economic like

505
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: boom and then bust that happened in like the nineties

506
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: and two thousand's apparently, Uh, we had we had a

507
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: very similar thing, but we don't have nearly as cool

508
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: of a name for no or like the recession. Yeah,

509
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: it's just very sad sounding. So I'd be interested, Lauren,

510
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: because you did a lot of that like science research

511
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: I did. I researched it briefly after this email, and

512
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: from what I read, it should be the opposite, because

513
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: most people said, like the gas oven, given that your

514
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 1: the eye of the stove is big enough and that

515
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 1: everything else is working, the gas ovens should heat it

516
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: up more quickly than electric evans will electric stove top Okay, Okay, yeah, yeah,

517
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 1: so I don't. I'm very cutious, like I've almost like

518
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 1: we need more information from you been because I want

519
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: to know. But but but but induction is different from

520
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 1: electric so um uh so this might be actually and

521
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 1: we've had on our idealist for centuries centuries now, uh,

522
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:45,439
Speaker 1: induction cook cook cooks stuff, cooking technology there you go. Yeah,

523
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: oh y'all, um, uh yeah, and oh heck, I think

524
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: either on Text Stuff or Forward Thinking, which are two

525
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 1: prior podcasts that I worked on before we started Savor.

526
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,760
Speaker 1: I know that we did an episode on induction cooking

527
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: on it was probably on tech stuff. Um, so I

528
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 1: can like dig up those also century old notes. Um.

529
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 1: It's it's super super fascinating, um, the way that it works.

530
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: And I do not remember anything about it off the

531
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 1: top of my head because I completely remove everything from

532
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:32,280
Speaker 1: my brain about four minutes after we finish a recording. Yeah,

533
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,959
Speaker 1: who knows what even was the last topic we talked about.

534
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:39,959
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you there again as we talked about

535
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 1: in that episode. Uh. And also again, this was a

536
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: very brief Google search for me and trying to answer

537
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 1: this very differing answers that could be found. So I'm

538
00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: just I'm so curious, like legitimately, very very cure sious

539
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,399
Speaker 1: about this. Okay, okay. And in a month the next

540
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: time that we have like a like a technology episode

541
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: come up in the rotation, because I do have a

542
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: rotation for these things, Um, we can we can totally

543
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: like yeah, just just go on and do induction. Yeah, yes, yes,

544
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 1: all right so tbd Ben, Yeah, we'll let you know. Yes.

545
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 1: In the meantime, Leslie wrote on Instagram, I had to

546
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: pause the Reasoning episode halfway because the whole first half

547
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,879
Speaker 1: sent me straight back to when I spent a month

548
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: in Germany for German wine school as a part of

549
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: my undergrad minor in Beverage service management. Yes, that was

550
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: is a real anyway, the gasoline smell is totally a thing,

551
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: and Germans take their reasonings very seriously. I think we

552
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 1: spent a good part of a whole one of three

553
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: educational weeks just in German wines and primarily that grape,

554
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 1: all though they have so many others. Annie, if you

555
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 1: ever want a wine, I'll buddy reach out and I'll

556
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 1: try to help. I might go all Charlie Day in

557
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 1: the mail room, but I also ran a tasting education

558
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 1: table most weekends when I worked at a wine shop

559
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 1: for a while. Now, to finish the rest of the episode, cheers,

560
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: that's awesome, Thank you so much. I love that. Like

561
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 1: you have a posse. Now, I know I'm gonna be

562
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: in the wine section and I'm gonna send out a

563
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: frantic message to these listeners and they're gonna it's gonna

564
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 1: be a Superhero's Unite type of feel it. Um, Charlie

565
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 1: Day is great. I'm I'm into it, um, and it

566
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: makes me very happy to hear these personal accounts of like, yes,

567
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: the gasoline smells a whole thing, and how seriously it's taken.

568
00:39:55,040 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: I love it. Oh, it's wonderful. M h Um. Confectionista

569
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 1: left us a review on Apple Podcasts that has a

570
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: story in it. So we wanted. We wanted to um,

571
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 1: we wanted to read this one. UM, they said, I

572
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: love this pod, one of my favorites. Your episode on

573
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: lamb Cakes brought back such wonderful memories for me growing

574
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: up in the late fifties and early sixties in southern

575
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: New Jersey. I used to go up to the cottage

576
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: every summer near Watertown, Waterton. I'm not sure how to

577
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 1: say it, and I didn't look it up. I'm sorry.

578
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: Near Waterton, New York. Um My beloved and Agnes h

579
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: aunt Agg owned this magical place on the shores of

580
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: Lake Ontario where our extended family would gather every year.

581
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 1: My sainted aunt put up with weirdo bookworm me and

582
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: encouraged me to help in the kitchen if I liked,

583
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 1: I did like, and once I expressed my love of

584
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: her molded lamb cake, she always made it for me

585
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: when I visited. I'm a coconut freak, so of course

586
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: the lamb's wool and the surrounding grass dyed green totally

587
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: enthralled me. Thanks for the memories. Oh I love that.

588
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: That is That is wonderful. Yeah. I love these memories

589
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 1: that you've all share with us, UM, that are just

590
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 1: so beautiful and lovely and have these connections of people

591
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: in your past and it's just very warming. Oh it is,

592
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: it is, and it's so um it's so good to

593
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:28,240
Speaker 1: have those memories jogged, right, you know. Yeah. And also

594
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 1: thank you for the review. Yeah, oh my goodness. Oh

595
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: yeah yeah yeah. I generally one of our UH producers

596
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: alerted us to this one. UM. As a rule, I

597
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: do not look at the reviews on things like Apple

598
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 1: podcasts because it can occasionally be a wretched hive of

599
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 1: scumm and melanie and I don't need that stress in

600
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 1: my life. UM. But but this was so nice. Thank you, yes, yes,

601
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 1: and and everyone who has sent positive reviews, thank you

602
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 1: for thinking. Oh Yeah, yeah, it really um it like whatever,

603
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:11,359
Speaker 1: like algorithm magic happens in the background. Um, it really

604
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 1: does help us out. So thank you for doing that. Yeah,

605
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 1: and we wanted to end with this one, which I

606
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: thought was just a really lovely encompassing of why these

607
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 1: listener mails are so beautiful and why these listener Males

608
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 1: segments are so beautiful. Um Test wrote on Instagram. Hi,

609
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,840
Speaker 1: I just listened to your listener mail episode and everyone

610
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: writing in about mispronouncing food names made me feel that

611
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: warm I feel seen feeling, and specifically it made me

612
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: feel better about a very low stakes but high embarrassing

613
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: memory for me when I went to London and Europe

614
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: the first time. It was on a work trip. My

615
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,800
Speaker 1: lovely coworkers took me to a fish and chips place.

616
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: We had black current survey at the end delicious. I

617
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 1: kept calling it kurant or karan because I didn't know

618
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 1: if it was French or something, and I had no

619
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 1: idea what I was doing. They didn't say anything, which

620
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:13,399
Speaker 1: kind of said a lot L O L. I don't know,

621
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,320
Speaker 1: but I feel silly when I think of that memory,

622
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: and I'm also grateful because I'm still friends with those

623
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 1: people and I know they totally tell me now that

624
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 1: we're way closer and actual friends. L O L. Thanks

625
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 1: for sharing all the listener mail. It makes me feel

626
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: like there's a little community of us out there in

627
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 1: the ether, which is sweet. You guys are super cool. Oh,

Speaker 1: I love hearing from you. I love how you interact

631
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 1: with other listener mail. Oh yeah, that's always my favorite. Yeah,

632
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,560
Speaker 1: there is like a little community, and it's just so

633
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 1: it's like this feeling like you said this morem I

634
00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: feel seen feeling um uh it just every time we

635
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,399
Speaker 1: do these, it's it's such a delight and it's so

636
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,839
Speaker 1: wonderful to hear from you. Um and they see these

637
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 1: connections and connections between you. It's great. I know I've

638
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 1: said it before, but like, but like to reiterate, like

639
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 1: it can be. Podcasting in general can be a really

640
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 1: like like lonely job, and especially during these are pandemic times.

641
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 1: You know, Annie and I are still in our home offices,

642
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: um just on like a skype call a couple of

643
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: times a week doing these episodes, and you know, so

644
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 1: it can be. It can be very isolating and it's

645
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:39,240
Speaker 1: really um uh, it's really strange like doing that work

646
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:41,359
Speaker 1: and then just kind of like sending it out and

647
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 1: being like I don't want all of anyone's listening. I

648
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 1: don't know what I thinks about it. It's it's so

649
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 1: far removed from the experience of like doing something in

650
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: front of a live audience, Like so far removed, um,

651
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 1: and so right. Having having this like like lifeline of

652
00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: messages from you guys is just really really hacking good

653
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:08,080
Speaker 1: you guys, it is. We love it, we appreciate it. Um.

654
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. It does feel like we're in a

655
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,760
Speaker 1: conversation with each other and it's beautiful and I'm so happy. Yes.

656
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 1: Oh also, uh, speaking speaking of um, there's oh goodness,

657
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:21,600
Speaker 1: I'm going to get this like a little bit wrong

658
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 1: because I haven't gone and checked out the feature myself.

659
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: But on the I Heart Radio app, Um, if you

660
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 1: go to the app and then you go to our show, Um,

661
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,759
Speaker 1: there is a way for y'all to send us like

662
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 1: a short voice message. I think I'm nearly positive. If

663
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 1: there's not, we can turn it on. Possibly this is

664
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,240
Speaker 1: like a really good note. I'm like, I'm like maybe

665
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 1: you do this thing and then maybe it exists. I

666
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: don't know. Um uh but yeah yeah. So if you've

667

00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:13,920
Speaker 1: it's I believe it's called talkback. Um. But you know, also,
