As one old guy once said, "The French can have their snails, and the English can have their plum pudding and goose, but I beg of you, give us the old stuffed ham." What's stuffed ham, you ask? Find out more about this secret Southern Maryland delicacy with Nicole and Julia as they discuss why Maryland is kinda like Harvey Dent and what stuffed ham even is anyway.

Our theme song is "Red Onions" by Louie Zong, off of his album Vegetable Soul: https://louiezong.bandcamp.com/album/vegetable-soul
