Ahoy, beach babes! This week we plead with you to drag up a life raft and listen in as we crunch into PART 1 of our CHIPS series. Not so fast Eric Estrada, not those kind of chips.

Today we discuss everyone's favorite slippery orange discharge- no not the 45th president- OLESTRA! Remember WOW! Chips?? Well, you know who does? Anyone who shit their pants at work from eating them. So pop open a bag of fat-free Doritos and hop into a big diaper, it’s Life’s a Banquet the podcast!
